The Pharaohs of Ancient Egypt Were ALIEN-HUMAN Hybrids
The Pharaohs of Ancient Egypt Were ALIEN-HUMAN Hybrids
The pharaohs of historical Egypt might have been alien-human hybrids, based on a new strange conspiracy theory going around on the internet.
Believers have created mocked-up images from the gods alongside extraterrestrials. This is to demonstrate how they might have been human beings along with elongated brains.
The reviews state that Egyptian stories date their own origins returning to the Zep Tepi. That explicates as the actual “first time”, a “golden age” whenever legend states gods originated from the atmosphere in eggs or vessels.
The hypotheses advise that superior lifeforms transferred their information or came up with the monuments prior to civilisations surfaced.
One conspiracy theory website assigns a whole area to the discussion that “aliens built the actual pyramids.” The early Egyptians could hardly have the knowledge of creating the pyramids.
It takes the large leap through the mystery to state it must be aliens.
The theory states: “The ones that they apparently built as a residence to the remains of lifeless pharaohs?
“Everyone believed that ancient Egyptians built them! However, that is incorrect.
“ALIENS built them!”
“Let’s glimpse at some incontrovertible proof.”
This states: “Here’s what truly happened: A few aliens, travelling high enough on the Earth in order to see the location where the Nile Delta’s origin is actually, easily noticed what direction the pyramid should be so as to have its diagonals lie upon those 2 lines.”
“These aliens, rich in their expertise and with all that technology, arrived and taking advantage of their compasses. They got on Earth and located the actual North as well as South Poles. Then they constructed the pyramids.”
The Sun, sets within the exact centre of the 2 pyramids.
During the time, the Egyptians didn’t understand the precise duration of a year, or even when the summertime solstice.
It states aliens might, nevertheless, happen to be able to determine the lengthiest day in a year.
Sunlight also goes up and remnants the head from the Sphinx within the winter solstice, the website highlights.
The website says: “The extraterrestrials, with their variety of knowledge, came straight down in the year ten, 500 BC and constructed the Pyramids as well as the Sphinx.
“They made it using a head of the lion to complement the Belt of Orion, and the groundation of Leo.
The site indicates that in case humans could hardly have done this, then exceptional aliens probably were included.
However, on the other hand, ancient aliens debunked. com is as similarly excited about evidence that people could have constructed the pyramids when historical past tells us these were constructed.
Within an article concerning the pyramids, the site claims the alleged unfinished obelisk, is 1.000 tones. It is made out of granite. However, was forgotten midway due to the fact a split created.
This said: “The stone, as it is not finished, provides us immediate insight into how they trim and formed granite, along with other stones.
“Right after they shaped the stones, working with pounding stones, Egyptians would start to polish the stones with grinders.
“There were various kinds of stone mills, or polishers, in historic Egypt.
“Around 85% of the rock used in the development of the pyramids was fairly soft sandstone. It was quarried right on the spot.”
This swirling pattern of color isn’t some long-lost Van Gogh oil painting — it’s Jupiter and its tumultuous vortices that dot the gas giant’s northern hemisphere.
The picture was snapped by the Juno spacecraft on May 23, 2018, during the spacecraft’s 13th close flyby of Jupiter. At the time, Juno was about 9,600 miles from the planet’s cloud tops.
Behold the dreamy beauty of Jupiter's clouds
According to NASA, the darker clouds are found deeper in the Jovian planet’s atmosphere while the bright clouds are found higher up into the atmosphere. These bright clouds are likely made of ammonia or ammonia and water, mixed with some yet unknown chemical ingredients. The bright oval at the bottom center of the picture which resembles a cosmic eye appears uniformly white to ground-based telescopes. From very close, however, we can resolve fine-scale features within the weather system. Just like in the case of Jupiter’s Great Red Spot, winds probably slow down greatly toward the center, where there doesn’t seem to be that much motion compared to the exterior of the eye.
Remarkably, the image was not processed by NASA. Citizen scientists Gerald Eichstädt and Seán Doran were responsible for the final image, who used data from the spacecraft’s JunoCam imager. Check out more pictures like this but also unprocessed data that anyone can use at the Juno Mission homepage.
This month, Juno was supposed to reach the climax of its mission by diving into the gas giant. NASA, however, decided to offer a three-year extension to the mission which means more opportunities for both science and eye candy such as the view feature here. Juno’s end of prime operations is now expected in July 2021, with data analysis and mission close-out activities continuing into 2022.
“This is great news for planetary exploration as well as for the Juno team,” said Scott Bolton, principal investigator of Juno, from the Southwest Research Institute in San Antonio. “These updated plans for Juno will allow it to complete its primary science goals. As a bonus, the larger orbits allow us to further explore the far reaches of the Jovian magnetosphere — the region of space dominated by Jupiter’s magnetic field — including the far magnetotail, the southern magnetosphere, and the magnetospheric boundary region called the magnetopause.”
“We have also found Jupiter’s radiation environment in this orbit to be less extreme than expected, which has been beneficial to not only our spacecraft, but our instruments and the continued quality of science data collected.”
What has NASA's Juno discovered around Jupiter so far?
Neither of NASA’s two Mars-based rovers nor the Reconnaissance Orbiter has sent back any especially compelling photos of the Red Planet lately, thanks to a “planet-encircling” dust storm that’s made photography hard over the last couple of weeks. To remind us that, hey, there’s more to Mars than clouds of red dust, NASA recently released a stunning photo of an unexpectedly turquoise sand dune, shot in January. Alfred McEwen, Ph.D., one of the scientists who run the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment — HiRISE — camera that took this photo, explained to Inverse how this strange image came to be.
Mars: Once in a Blue Dune
The photo, posted by NASA on June 20, was taken by the HiRISE on the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter on January 24. It zooms in on the floor of Lyot Crater, where a bunch of regular sand dunes is overlaid by one huge blue sand dune, sprawling over the landscape like a giant turquoise slug. The smaller dunes are classic barchan dunes — the technical term for a crescent-shaped dune formed by gusts of wind. The big blue one, however, “appearing like turquoise blue in enhanced color, is made of finer material and/or has a different composition than the surrounding,” said NASA in a press release. McEwen, a planetary geologist and director of the Planetary Image Research Laboratory at the University of Arizona, explained the extent to which photo enhancement created the striking blue color in an email to Inverse.
“The images are given min-max stretches in each individual color image to increase contrast,” he says. “The dunes are actually grey, but appear relatively blue after such a stretch because most of Mars is red.”
The dune is grey, not blue, but it appears turquoise relative to the red hue that colors most of Mars.
The reason HiRISE photos have to undergo so much editing is because, to the naked eye (or camera lens), the surface of Mars actually looks quite bland and blurry because all you really see from above is light reflecting off the dust in the atmosphere. Even the HiRISE, with its unprecedented resolution (it can image objects on Mars as small as three feet tall), can’t get around the dust. So, to see images in fine detail, the team has to turn up the contrast — which often leads to a dramatic shift in color. The photos below, of Mars’s Nili Patera region, shows what a difference some editing can make.
Images of the Nili Patera region of Mars -- a proposed landing site for future missions.
In an article for the HiRISE website written in 2016, McEwan explained how the color enhancement process created the above photos.
At the top is an apprximation of the natural color as seen by people with normal color vision—almost no surface detail is visible. In the middle is the standard HiRISE IRB color product, consisting of the infrared, red, and blue-green images displayed as red, green, and blue, respectively, and with a min-max stretch applied to each color. In other words, the darkest pixel in the entire image is set to black, the brightest pixel is set to white, and all others are linearly interpolated. At bottom is an enhanced color product, in which each bandpass is given a linear stretch for the local subimage, sometimes saturating a small percentage of data to black or white to give the rest of the scene more contrast, followed by color saturation enhancement. Now we can see a diversity of colors that distinguish different surface units: dust, sand, and rocks with different minerals.
The same process produced the now-iconic blue dune, shown in a color-enhanced version below.
The blue dune appears turquoise in the color-enhanced version of the image.
In short, the blue dune isn’t actually blue, but if it wasn’t edited to look blue, it wouldn’t be nearly as impressive. Mars purists can rest assured: Its reputation as the Red Planet is intact for now.
Camera detects high speed unknown object near Mars
Camera detects high speed unknown object near Mars
On June 24, 2018 a sky watcher while recording Mars in the SSW sky he noticed something else that was moving at a very high rate of speed.
Despite that the object is probably at a distance from Mars, it is not likely that it would be a satellite since it moves too fast and it not follows a straight flight path like satellites do.
If you look carefully at the unknown object it rotates and it changes colors too.
I don’t know about you, but when I’m not busy researching or reading about strange phenomena, I like to kick back and enjoy a TV show or movie about some of my favorite subjects –– whether it’s catching Ancient Aliens, Curse of Oak Island or Finding Bigfoot during the week or making time on the weekends to watch an oldie but a goodie from the Area 51 movie archives.
Here are some of our favorites that, like the UFOs they describe, have flown under the radar. All three are based on true stories.
The crash at Roswell, for many UFOlogists, is the grandaddy of the whole phenomena. Whatever happened back on Mac Brazel’s New Mexico ranch back in 1947 touched off a series of events that forever changed the way we look at the skies, as well as how we look at our own government.
This is a serious film with serious actors. Kyle MacLachlan and Martin Sheen each do an outstanding job with the material which is presented in a series of flashbacks at a military reunion 30 years after the crash. The storytelling is intelligent and compelling; this isn’t a dry documentary. If you care about why Roswell was such a big deal, you need to see this movie.
If you don’t know Whitley Strieber, you owe it to yourself to check him out. He’s the author of horror/paranormal classics The Wolfen (werewolves) and The Hunger (vampires) as well as the book behind this movie, Communion. But Communion isn’t a work of fiction, or is it?
Christopher Walken, Haunting in Communion
In Communion, published as non-fiction, Strieber claims he was abducted from his cabin in upstate New York on the evening of December 26, 1985 by non-human beings who may or may not have been of extraterrestrial origin. Although the book is seen as an account of alien abduction, Strieber himself merely refers to the beings as “the visitors,” a name meant to suggest that the beings witnessed as part of these events may exist in reality or only in his own mind—a twist worthy of Philip K. Dick.
The movie is bizarre, disturbing and deeply uncomfortable to watch, which is precisely why you need to see it. If you have even a passing interest in the alien abduction phenomenon or in the permeable veil between sanity and insanity, you will enjoy Communion. Plus, it stars one of the most bizarre and haunting actors of all time, Christopher Walken, in the main role.
Strieber has gone on to be a luminary in the paranormal research world. See his latest at Unknown Country or listen to him at Dreamland.
Fire in the Sky is a completely different look at the UFO abduction phenomenon. Where Communion is cerebral and introspective, Fire in the Sky is grounded in the real world of human jealousy, rivalry and frailty.
In 1975, Travis Walton was driving home from his logging job in the White Mountains of Arizona with some of his co-workers. That evening, they encountered an unidentified object in the sky. Walton gets out of the truck to have a look and is struck by a beam of light from the object, sending him flying backwards with great force. His co-workers flee the scene; when they later return, Walton is missing.
What ensues is a cross between a missing persons investigation and a murder mystery, with back-and-forth between the police and the loggers who stick to their UFO story. Walton finally turns up days later alive—naked, dehydrated and babbling—at a gas station.
We finally learn Walton’s ominous fate in a horrifying flashback to what happened aboard the craft. It is everything that alien abduction nightmares are made of.

Here's the scientific explanation for that 'alien spaceship' on Mars
Here's the scientific explanation for that 'alien spaceship' on Mars
Mars has lengthy been everybody’s hands-down favourite within the seek for extraterrestrial lifestyles. It has got rocky landscapes, Nationwide Park-worthy canyons, and a basic look that resembles Arizona stripped of crops and comfort retail outlets.
It is no marvel then that newbie explorers have spent years in entrance in their laptops scrutinizing this international for clues to lifestyles. The net footage they find out about — taken via a medley of rovers and orbiters — make up a wealthy corpus of images for those extremely motivated sleuths. However few of them are on the lookout for fungi or different back-burner biology. They hope to search out proof of suave beings that both visited Mars or have been as soon as Pink Planet natives.
Crashed alien spacecraft?
It is a beautiful and intriguing thought. Additionally it is not likely to pan out. Certainly, those homebody detectives simply suffered every other setback. In a paper printed lately within the “Magazine of Geophysical Analysis: Planets,” scientists at Johns Hopkins College be offering a easy reason behind the bizarre topography of an artifact that some mistook for a crashed alien spaceship. They are saying the purported spacecraft is if truth be told one thing just a geologist may love — the handiwork of historic volcanism, no longer Vulcans.
The artifact is situated in a area of Mars referred to as the Medusae Fossae Formation. It is a strange-looking geologic deposit the dimensions of Alaska and Texas mixed. Additionally it is notable for the truth that radar alerts aimed its manner are simplest weakly mirrored, a “stealth” characteristic that some believe to be most likely unnatural. In the end, stealth airplane are engineered to be arduous to peer on radar. Had one thing or any person controlled to do the similar with the terrain of the Medusae Fossae?
The Medusae Fossae Formation is one of the largest sedimentary deposits on Mars. This is an infrared image mosaic generated using Thermal Emission Imaging System (THEMIS) images from NASA’s Mars Odyssey orbiter mission; the small colored globe based on the Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter (MOLA).

The purported spaceship is huge in comparison to our personal rockets — concerning the measurement of the Notre Dame soccer stadium. Even so, it is just about misplaced within the corrugated expanse of the Medusae Fossae Formation. But when you’ll be able to in finding it, and if you happen to screw up your eyes, it looks as if a saucer-shaped craft that bungled its touchdown and slid into the Martian filth. Extraterrestrial passengers — assuming there have been any — both phoned house and have been rescued way back or disappeared into the adverse landscapes of the Pink Planet.
Essential, if true. Certainly, it will be as nice a discovery as that of Columbus. However as soon as once more, the eyes and brains of people that wish to imagine that is visible proof for extraterrestrial beings have proven themselves to be at risk of deception. The evidence of that comes from the paintings of the Johns Hopkins researchers, who moderately decided the homes of the “touchdown website online.” They measured the common density of the fabric in Medusae Fossae, and it seems to be low — just one.7 occasions the density of water. That is light-weight in comparison to the common density of Earth’s crust, which is three.zero occasions that of water.
No Klingon cloaking tool
Conclusion? Medusae Fossae isn’t cast rock, however layers of particles — volcanic ash that was once spewed into the Martian skies way back. Its low radar reflectance isn’t some manifestation of Klingon cloaking generation however what you would be expecting from a pile of grainy, volcanic ejecta.
What does this say concerning the saucer artifact? In keeping with Ross Beyer, a analysis scientist on the SETI Institute, the meant spacecraft is “only a hill.” It is some increased topography that was once swamped billions of years in the past via all that volcanic particles, he mentioned, a “lone small hill or knob that existed prior to the ash blanketed numerous actual property. This can be the top of a taller hill that was once buried, and there is also different hills on this area that weren’t as tall and are buried utterly, leaving simplest this one status above the particles.”
In different phrases, similar to an iceberg, lots of the suspected saucer’s bulk is invisible — hidden via a sea of unfastened crud. It is ash, no longer a crash.
However take a look at the intense aspect. You might want to know that Mars isn’t any such bad extraterrestrial vacation spot finally. In all probability we will have to alert the extraterrestrial beings that, somewhat than heading for New Mexico and a crack-up within the wilderness, they will have to steer as an alternative towards the fourth rock from the solar.
And for me and my colleagues — sure, it will be transformational to search out evidence of extraterrestrials, and albeit, attempting to find artifacts is a technique to try this. Simply no longer this one!
Dr. Seth Shostak is senior astronomer on the SETI Institute in Mountain View, California and host of the “Giant Image Science” podcast.
Humanity may be as few as 10 years away from discovering evidence of extraterrestrial life. Once we do, it will only deepen the mystery of where alien intelligence might be hiding.
Enrico Fermi was an architect of the atomic bomb, a father of radioactivity research, and a Nobel Prize–winning scientist who contributed to breakthroughs in quantum mechanics and theoretical physics. But in the popular imagination, his name is most commonly associated with one simple, three-word question, originally meant as a throwaway joke to amuse a group of scientists discussing UFOs at the Los Alamos lab in 1950: Where is everybody?
Fermi wasn’t the first person to ask a variant of this question about alien intelligence. But he owns it. The query is known around the world as the Fermi paradox. It’s typically summarized like this: If the universe is unfathomably large, the probability of intelligent alien life seems almost certain. But since the universe is also 14 billion years old, it would seem to afford plenty of time for these beings to make themselves known to humanity. So, well, where is everybody?
In the seventh episode of Crazy/Genius, a new podcast from The Atlantic on tech, science, and culture, we put the question to several experts, including Ellen Stofan, the former chief scientist of nasa and current director of the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum; Adam Frank, a writer and astrophysicist at the University of Rochester; Anders Sandberg, a scientist and futurist at the University of Oxford; and Tim Urban, the science essayist at Wait But Why.
Proposed solutions to Fermi’s Paradox fit into three broad categories.
One: They’re nowhere—and no-when.
Aliens don’t exist, and they never have. This scenario might have seemed more likely in the universe imagined by Aristotle and Ptolemy—a small assortment of celestial orbs spinning around a singular Earth. But that isn’t the universe anybody lives in. After searching the skies for Earthlike planets for centuries, cosmologists have, in the last two decades, broken open the cosmic piñata. Today they estimate as many as 500 billion billion sunlike stars, with 100 billion billion Earthlike planets. The more we learn about the universe, the more absurd it would seem if all but one of those bodies were bereft of life. To my mind, this is both the least likely answer to Fermi’s Paradox and the only one that fits all the evidence currently available to astrophysicists.
Two: Life is out there—but intelligence isn’t.
Ellen Stofan predicts that we’ll find evidence of simple life on Mars or a faraway moon within the next 10 to 30 years. But she’s imagining something more like microbes or algae, not underwater cities in the liquid-methane lakes of Titan. This shifts the question from “Where is everybody?” to a more sophisticated query: Whatprecisely is keeping an infinitude of dumb molecules from assembling to form an abundance of intelligent life?
Think about all the factors that add up to the creation of a human. First the spark of life, followed by the creation of simple cells, then complex multicellular organisms, then the formation of organs like brains. If humanlike intelligence is rare, one of these steps must be quite insurmountable. For example, it’s notable that Earth has several million species of life, but only one has produced a civilization—that we know of. The relative silence of the universe suggests some kind of “Great Filter” that is restricting the creation of more intelligent beings. More ominously, some scientists think it’s possible that this Great Filter isn’t in our distant past, but rather in our future; so, it’s not that intelligent life is rare, but rather that it pops into existence for a few thousand years before getting wiped out of existence for mysterious reasons.
Three: Intelligent life is abundant—but quiet.
This possibility, known as the zoo hypothesis, invites some of the strangest speculation. Maybe humanity is still so basic and primitive that advanced civilizations don’t think we’re worth talking to. Or maybe those other civilizations have learned that broadcasting their existence leads to extermination at the hands of violent, intergalactic colonizers. Or maybe our solar system just happens to be located in a quiet, exurban cul-de-sac of the universe, an accident of cosmic geography. But none of these theories hold a candle to my favorite conjecture of all: slumbering digital aliens. To understand why intelligent life might prefer to be based in a computer or cat-napping through the Anthropocene, check out the episode.

«On dirait un ovni»: la chute d’un bolide lumineux filmée à Voronej
«On dirait un ovni»: la chute d’un bolide lumineux filmée à Voronej
Un bolide est passé au-dessus de plusieurs régions du centre-ouest russe, provoquant l’émoi de ses habitants qui partagent les images de l’évènement sur la Toile.
Des habitants de la ville russe de Voronej (centre-ouest) ont eu la chance d’assister à la chute d’un astéroïde. Des vidéos du rare phénomène ont été diffusées sur le réseau social VKontakte:
«Je pensais qu’il y aurait une onde de choc, comme à Tcheliabinsk, et j’ai commencé à filmer, mais il n’y a pas eu d’explosion», écrit un témoin oculaire.
Un autre habitant avoue avoir cru qu’un ovni passait au-dessus de la ville:
«On dirait un ovni, et j’ai eu peur. Ce truc était si lumineux», confie-t-il.
La chute du corps céleste a été également observée dans les régions voisines de Lipetsk, Orel et Toula. Selon la chercheuse Liana Leonova de l’Université d’État de Voronej, il s’agirait d’un météore ou d’un débris spatial qui a brûlé dans l’atmosphère à l’approche de la Terre.
«Il pourrait s’agir de tout ce que vous voulez: par exemple, d’un déchet spatial. Il est pourtant peu probable que ce soit une météorite d’origine naturelle», estime Mme Leonova.
En février 2013, un météore d’un diamètre de 15 à 17 mètres et d’une masse estimée à entre 7.000 et 10.000 tonnes s’est fragmenté au-dessus de Tcheliabinsk (Oural du sud), créant une onde de choc qui a détruit des milliers de vitres et fait plus de 1.600 blessés dans la ville. Source

Images and video of the daylight meteor seen over Russia on June 21. The small asteroid exploded in the air; fragments may have reached Earth. Plus … why are so many large meteors seen over Russia?
A bright meteor was seen in near daylight on June 21, 2018, over several Russian cities, including Lipetsk, which is located southeast of Moscow. The fast fireball produced an amazing smoke trail that remained visible during several minutes. NASA’s fireball records indicate the event occurred on June 21 at 01:16:20 UTC. Sensors detected that the space rock produced an explosion equivalent to 2.8 kilotons. That explosion size corresponds to the disintegration of a small asteroid of about 13 feet (4 meters) in diameter. That size is in contrast to the estimated 65-foot (20-meter) asteroid that exploded in the air over Chelyabinsk, Russia, in February 2013.
Infrasound sensor detectors registered the low frequencies produced by the explosion of the space rock as it entered Earth’s atmosphere. And some caught the meteor on dashboard cameras, as was the case, apparently, in the video at the top of this page by Alexander Dundin.
Although intense friction with the air would have caused most of the space rock to disintegrate, it is possible that small fragments may have reached Earth’s surface.
Location of Lipetsk, Russia, one of several cities over which the June 21 daylight meteor was seen.
Why so many meteor events over Russia? Russia is the largest country in the world, thus its large territorial extension makes it the target with most probability for a space rock to hit, after the seas. About 70 percent of our planet’s surface is covered by water, which means that most meteorites do fall into the sea.
Science centers and museums around the world will celebrate Asteroid Day on June 30, an event to create awareness and educate our communities about asteroids.

Twilight meteor over Russia, June 21, 2018.
Bottom line: Images and video of the 13-foot (4-meter) asteroid seen in near daylight on June 21, 2018, over various Russian cities. It exploded in the air, but some fragments may have reached the ground. Plus … why so many large meteors are seen over Russia.
Ok, let’s go ahead and get it out of the way: SPACE FORCE!
Breaking: "NASA New Plan To Save Earth From Asteroids" Just Released
Yes, 45th President of the United States Donald J. Trump announced this month the creation of the United States Space Force which pretty much already existed in the form of the Air Force Space Command and was almost universally opposed by military leadership, but hey, who cares? Yell it with me now while waving ol’ glory in front of a montage of exploding bald eagles: SPACE FORCE! SPACE FORCE! SPACE FORCE!
“GET SOME, ASTEROIDS!”
While the creation of the USSF (SPACE FOOOOOOOORCE!!) has been controversial and fodder for late-night comics the world over, it does highlight the fact that space is playing an increasingly important role in military operations. All of the major superpowers operate some form of space-based weaponry or ‘killer’ satellites, while US intelligence agencies have been warning for months now that like winter, war in space is coming. While these man-made spaceborne threats are indeed terrifying, the fact remains that the most pressing threats from outer space are the hundreds of thousands of potentially deadly near-Earth objects (NEOs) circling the solar system biding their time.
Were pretty much surrounded.
NASA and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) have been conducting ‘wargame’ simulations over the last few years to test their preparedness ahead of any future asteroid impact events (Remember: it’s a question of when and where, not if). The result of those simulations is the White House’s latest National Near-Earth Object Preparedness Strategy and Action Plan released earlier this week. The 23-page documentoutlines how various agencies of the U.S. government plan to increase their preparedness over the next decade and develop strategies for both mitigating the risks of NEO impacts and planning what to do in the event of the inevitable next strike.
The White House lists five main goals for the NEO plan: enhance NEO detection, tracking, and characterization capabilities; enhance NEO modeling, prediction, and information integration; develop technologies for NEO deflection and disruption missions; increase international cooperation for NEO preparation; and strengthen and routinely exercise NEO impact emergency procedures and action protocols. Not exactly light nighttime reading for those of us who know it could happen anywhere and at anytime.
Remember the Chelyabinsk meteor strike in 2013 that injured over 1,000 people? It was a total surprise.
The document is mostly background information on NEOs and acronym-heavy bureaucratic language laying out which agencies will be tasked with which tasks (my favorite is “terrestrial migration”). Above all, the big takeaway is that NEOs are indeed a major threat, one for which we’re still terrifyingly unprepared despite the fact that we’ve known for decades or longer that the Earth bears the scars of past cataclysmic strikes.
Not to worry, though: the Space Force will save us. SPACE FORCE! SPACE FORCE! SPACE FORCE!
It’s always thoughtful of the universe to remind us that, despite our earthly problems and concerns that seem so very important, it can just end us, instantly in a flash of cosmic fire. Astronomers at the Keck Observatory, located on the dormant volcano Mauna Kea in Hawaii, have recently observed a massive explosion 100 times brighter than a supernova ripping through a neighboring galaxy—and they have no idea what caused it.
The event—or object—is referred to as “The Cow,” which seems a distinctly boring name for a violent, galaxy destroying explosion of unknown origin. It was detected as far brighter than an average supernova, and moving at an anomalously fast speed. The team of astronomers working the ATLAS telescopeat the Keck Observatory reported the event in the Astronomer’s Telegram, where it sparked international curiosity and where the automated naming and cataloging system of the Telegram listed the report as “AT2018cow.” This is why we shouldn’t let computers name things.
“I am become death, destroyer of worlds.”
While the brightness of the explosion is unusual, the speed at which it reached peak brightness is even more strange. Usually, large deep space explosions take weeks to reach their maximum brightness. The cow reached its peak brightness in two days. Scientists say that the explosion is made up of high-energy particles traveling at a rate of 12,000 miles per second and has a temperature of 16,000 degrees Fahrenheit. Speaking to New Scientist, Dr Kate McGuire of the ATLAS team, described the deep space explosion:
“It really just appeared out of nowhere. There are other objects that have been discovered that are as fast, but the fastness and the brightness, that’s quite unusual. There hasn’t really been another object like this.”
Initially, the explosion was thought to have occurred in our own galaxy. Due to the incredible brightness of the exploding cow, astronomers assumed that it was far closer than it actually is. A team of Chinese astronomers who trained their telescopes at the event calculated that “The Cow” is actually a whopping 200-million light years away, which would put it in a different galaxy entirely. So, if this thing keeps going, we’ll be alright for a good while. There’s a lot things you can do with 200 million years.
The explosion is up to 100 times brighter than a supernova.
Scientists don’t have any idea what caused this event, however. According to Dr McGuire:
“We’re not sure yet what it is, but the normal powering mechanism for a supernova is radioactive decay of nickel, and this event is too bright and too fast for that.”
The event currently has 18 telescopes from around the world pointed at it, which is the largest number of concurrent observations of any celestial event reported to the Astronomer’s Telegram, according to the site’s editor-in-chief. Scientists say that they should have more information about the cosmic cow in the next few days. If you never hear about it again, that’s probably the time to start worrying.

http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/gallery/video/shuttle/sts-115/net56/sts115_fd01_03_56.asf I found this UFO in an old Shuttle Atlantis video on a NASA website today. The UFO is white and triangle shaped, following the dropped rocket that helped the shuttle take off. If you remember the Shuttle Atlantis, you will also remember how CNN aired news declaring a UFO was preventing the Shuttle Atlantis from landing on time, and it was delayed in orbit being followed by several small objects. Here is one of those objects close up. Scott C. Waring
The person left his home in the UK to smoke a cigarette and to his astonishment he saw this ship partially hidden in the clouds. The UFO had a very sharp edge going around it, but the front and back were hidden by the clouds around it. Remember, the easiest way to hide and observe humans is to fly a UFO low to the ground where you can observe them below. Scott C. Waring
Physicists Just Found the Last Missing Protons and Neutrons In the Universe
Physicists Just Found the Last Missing Protons and Neutrons In the Universe

The universe's missing matter has been found, and it's floating between the stars.
Researchers who study the ancient history of the universe know how much ordinary matter — matter that makes up baryons, a class of subatomic particles that includes protons and neutrons — the universe created during the Big Bang. And researchers who study the modern universe know how much ordinary, baryonic matter humans can see with telescopes. [Strange Quarks and Muons, Oh My! Nature's Tiniest Particles Dissected]
Physicists Just Found the Last Missing Protons and Neutrons In the Universe
But until recently, those numbers didn't match up: A full third of the universe's original baryonic matter was missing. Now, thanks to a clever observation involving an incredibly bright black hole, an international team of researchers says they've found it.
The missing baryons, the researchers wrote in a study published today (June 21) in the journal Nature, have been hiding out as thin, hot clouds of oxygen gas floating between the stars. The gas is highly ionized, meaning that most of its electrons are missing, and it has a strong positive charge.
"We found the missing baryons," Michael Shull, an astronomer at the University of Colorado, Boulder and a co-author on the paper, said in a statement.
The signal of the oxygen was too strong and consistent to come from random fluctuations in the quasar's light, the researchers wrote. The astronomers also ruled out the possibility of a faint galaxy causing the oxygen's shadow.
Since at least 2011, researchers have suspected that the missing baryons might be hiding out in this material, called the warm-hot intergalactic medium (WHIM), but the WHIM is difficult to observe directly. To spot the gas hiding there, they had to come up with a clever trick.
Far from Earth, there are black holes sucking up huge amounts of matter. That matter glows very bright, and telescopes on this planet can spot it. Researchers call these sorts of black holes quasars — and they're the brightest objects in the universe. That means that light from quasars has "a high signal to noise ratio," the researchers wrote in the paper, meaning in this case that it's easy to see if something obscures it.
Pointing a telescope at a quasar not only tells astronomers about the object itself, but also reveals something about whatever's floating between the quasar and the telescope. In this case, that something was a filament of the WHIM.
By careful observation of how the WHIM obscured and changed lightemanating from the quasar as it made its way into the lenses of two telescopes, the researchers were able to figure out what the WHIM was made of. The answer, it turned out, was oxygen, heated to nearly 1.8 million degrees Fahrenheit (1 million degrees Celsius).
These missing baryons aren't the same thing as dark matter, which researchers believe exists, thanks to its gravitational influence on other stars. That matter is thought to exist in the form of particles more exotic than simple baryons.
In a statement, the researchers said they were able to extrapolate from the observed WHIM how much baryonic matter in the form of oxygen floats elsewhere in the universe as the WHIM. To confirm and refine their observations, they said, they plan to point their telescopes at other quasars and observe the WHIM obscuring them.

A UFO appears in the form of a boomerang at high speed over France
Many people forget that the term UFO serves to define an unidentified flying object, which means that no one really knows what it is. While many UFO sightings have been documented over the years and on all continents, the only thing that unites these encounters is that many of these mysterious objects that appear out of nowhere in our skies can not be identified.
Of course, ufologists and conspiracy theorists suggest all sorts of theories, ranging from advanced military aircraft to visits in the form of extraterrestrial life. However, skeptics dismiss these theories claiming that they are simply strange weather patterns, commercial aircraft or misidentified birds. But this has not prevented more and more people from believing in conspiracy theories. There is even a day of the year dedicated to lovers of the UFO theme, World UFO Day, whose goal is to force governments to declassify any information they have about strange flying objects in our skies. But to date, all we know is that UFOs in the form of twinkling lights, rotating objects, luminous spheres and black dots continue to appear.
And the reality is that there are UFO sightings around the world, and some areas of our planet seem to be more prone to this type of activity. And there are not only UFO sightings in the United States and England. As in France, where a person has recorded what appears to be an unidentified flying object in the form of a boomerang. The video has become a subject of debate between the believers of the UFO subject and the conspiracy theorists.
UFO sighting over France
The video, uploaded to YouTube on the Now You Know channel, was recorded on June 14 and shows a mysterious object in the form of a very bright boomerang moving across the sky in broad daylight over Midi-Pyrénées (in French: Midi-Pyrénées), an administrative region of France.
“A disc-shaped silver object was recorded flying off the southwest coast of France,” reads the video description. “The UFO was recorded on June 14, 2018 in France, possibly near the interior region of Midi Pyrenees. In the video you can see that he performs high-speed aerial maneuvers and moves as smart. “
Although what has most struck is that curiously, the UFO that can be seen in the images has a very similar shape to the alien ship of the science fiction film directed by Ridley Scott ‘Prometheus’. But the controversy that has arisen has not been precisely by the UFO, but rather because originally the video was published by the YouTube channel ‘ZealotInAll Black3’ , which was eliminated after having increased the sighting for allegedly violating the Rules of the Community. This has provoked all kinds of reactions among the conspiracy theorists, who believe that the elimination of the channel is due to the fact that it is clearly a real UFO of extraterrestrial origin . Even the controversial ufologist Tyler Glockner, responsible for the YouTube channel ‘secureteam10’, has investigated the video, speculating with the possibility that it was an object similar to the ships of the Star Wars saga.
As the video went viral, some experts in the field suggest that these UFO sightings are clear evidence that the government is executing the infamous Blue Beam Project , also known as the false alien invasion or the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. Others said that this new sighting could be related to the new Donald Trump Space Force as they could be doing secret military maneuvers in our skies.

Although popular theory says that these sightings are irrefutable proof of the existence of extraterrestrial activity on our planet. It is well known that certain civilizations from other worlds have been visiting Earth for hundreds of thousands of years, and now they could be preparing for the great revelation.
And although the skeptics consider that this object is an unmanned aircraft, it must be said that a drone is not capable of performing such aerial maneuvers at such a high speed . No doubt this new material has everything to become a great conspiracy plot, a video that is published by a YouTube channel that is eliminated within a few hours.
The U.S. Air Force is looking into purchasing new pylons for its B-52H bombers that could allow them to carry multiple 20,000-pound class weapons under each wing. This would allow the aircraft to carry almost any bomb or missile the service has in inventory now and could be a prelude to integrating new weapons, such as air-launched hypersonic cruise missiles, onto the planes in the future.
On June 21, 2018, the Air Force Materiel Command revealed it was interested in acquiring what it calls the Heavy Release Capability (HRC) pylons as part of the B-52 Heavy Weapon Release Pylon Program in a notice on the U.S. government’s main contracting website, FedBizOpps. The formal request for information says the service wants to get to the Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) phase, which involves work on an actual prototype system and would last approximately 72 months, as quickly as possible.
The HRC equipment would replace the existing Improved Common Pylon (ICP) that the B-52Hs use today. The ICP, in combination with the Heavy Stores Adapter Beam (HSAB) multiple ejector rack, can only accommodate weapons up to the 5,000-pound class.
“When it [the ICP] was introduced, there wasn't a requirement nor did anyone foresee a need to carry weapons heavier than 5,000 pounds,” Air Force Materiel Command said in its request for information. The “pylon will require an internal multi-hook type release mechanism capable of carrying multiple weapons in the 5,000 pound to 20,000 pound weight class.”
An Air Force technician secures GPS-guided Joint Direct Attack Munitions (JDAMS) on a B-52's underwing pylon.
The notice says the pylon itself can’t weight more 5,000 pounds. It also refers to “current heavy weapons exceeding 5,000 pounds,” but does not specify any system in particular.
So the question quickly becomes, what weapon or weapons does the Air Force expect the B-52 to carry using the more capable HRC pylons? None of the bomber’s typical load outsinclude weapons even close to the existing 5,000-pound limitation.
The nuclear-armed AGM-86B Air Launched Cruise Missile and its conventional derivatives are both less than 3,500 pounds. It is unlikely that the future Long Range Stand Off (LRSO) will be significantly heavier. Even the B-52-launched X-51 Waverider hypersonic demonstrator vehicle had an empty weight of approximately 4,000 pounds.

The last time B-52s were called upon to carry a weapon in a weight class between 5,000 and 20,000 pounds, was during the 1960s and 70s when the Air Force called upon the bombers to deliver the 10,000-pound class AGM-28 Hound Dog cruise missile. The abortive AGM-48 Skybolt that was supposed to replace those weapons had a similar weight.
Since the Air Force specifically says the requirement for the HRC pylon is based on a “current” weapon, one immediate possibility is that the Air Force is interested in giving the aircraft the ability to carry the massive GBU-43/B Massive Ordnance Air Blast (MOAB), also known as the “Mother of All Bombs.”
This huge air-bursting weapon offers a devastating capability against exposed targets over a wide area. It also particularly effective at destroying caves and tunnel complexes with its blast wave, which can suck the air of individuals' lungs and cause massive internal injuries from the overpressure in a confined space.
A B-52G carries a pair of AGM-28 Hound Dog cruise missiles.
Unfortunately, the MOAB is also too big to fit inside the B-52’s internal bomb bay. At present, Air Force Special Operations Command MC-130 special operations transport aircraft are the only planes that can employ this 20,000-pound class air-bursting weapon and typically only carry one at a time on a pallet inside their cargo bay. The Air Force would need to modify the GBU-43/B to be work with any underwing rack.
A B-52 carrying multiple MOABs would offer a dramatically increased capability and could fly higher and further than the smaller MC-130s. This could give the Air Force more flexibility in employing the weapon and the potential to do so in higher-risk scenarios. In April 2017, the service dropped the first GBU-43/B ever over Afghanistan, an entirely permissive airspace environment.

Otherwise, there are few other obvious weapon systems that would require the HRC pylons. The bombers can already carry the GBU-57/B Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP), which is designed to burrow deep into hardened facilities far underground, internally, but has only done so in testing.
The Air Force envisions employing these bombs almost exclusively for strikes against targets deep in denied areas where the B-52 would be unable to survive. As such, the service says the only platform set up to carry the MOPs on actual operations is the B-2 Spirit stealth bomber. The GBU-57/B is in the 30,000-pound weight class, which would make it too heavy for even the new HRC pylon anyway.

It is also worth noting that the Air Force and NASA have also employed B-52s with specialized underwing pylons and stores racks to test a variety of large experimental air vehicles and rockets. It is possible that the firms who have supplied that equipment in the past could adapt one of those designs to carry whatever weapons the Air Force has in mind for HRC-equipped bombers.
The remaining possibility is that the B-52s need the HRC pylons to support a potentially still-classified weapon system that is either in development or has reached some level of limited operational capability. Even if the bombers were simply supposed to act as the testbed for a new bomb or missile in the 5,000- to 20,000-pound weight class, the Air Force would need to ensure it has the capability to do so now.

We know that in April 2018, the Air Force handed Lockheed Martin a contract worth nearly $1 billion for development of an air-breathing, air-launched hypersonic cruise missile. The service has also been working with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency on the separate Hypersonic Air-breathing Weapon Concept (HAWC) program.
Other services, in cooperation with the Defense Department’s secretive Strategic Capabilities Office (SCO), are pursuing other hypersonic weapons, as well. A recent hack of a still unknown U.S. defense contractor led to the exposure of additional details about the Navy’s still-classified Sea Dragonhypersonic submarine-launched anti-ship cruise missile program.
An official briefing slide from 2017 outlining US Air FOrce work on hypersonic weapons, include the HAWC.
The Pentagon has been supporting that project directly by way of the SCO through funding set aside for “advanced innovative technologies.” The same section in the annual defense budget includes other classified efforts that could require the HRC pylons.
These include “Alternate Strike,” which seeks to reconfigure existing weapons for use on different launch platforms to expand their flexibility, and “Breaker,” a long-range weapon for both ground- and air-launched applications. Another effort, called Strike-X “leverages existing long-range strike capabilities and develops alternative Concepts of Employment (CONEMP) and Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTP) to deliver near-term innovative long-range strike capabilities to Combatant Commanders.”
We at The War Zone have already presented compelling evidence that Sea Dragon could be an outgrowth of apparently defunct Revolutionary Approach To Time-critical Long Range Strike program, or RATTLRS. This Navy-led project sought to develop a cruise missile with a high supersonic speed that sea or air platforms could employ.
A mockup of the RATTLRS missile.
Lockheed Martin was heavily involved in that program, as well, and had produced full-size mockups of the proposed weapon that evoked the size and shape of their Cold War-era D-21 drone. The D-21 was an 11,000-pound unmanned reconnaissance platform that was originally paired with an M-21 mothership derived from the A-12 spy plane.
Difficulties in that arrangement led Lockheed to develop a system that allowed B-52s to launch the drones. The bombers would be a good option to carry any RATTLRS-derived weapon, as well.

In March 2018, Lockheed Martin notably brought out an old model of the RATTLRS missile to the Air Force Association’s annual Air War Symposium, but without any real explanation as to why. It is possible that this could have been an effort to showcase the firm’s existing experience leading into the hypersonic cruise missile project, too.
The RATTLRS project also focused heavily on the anti-ship role, which might be a future capability of any hypersonic cruise missile-armed B-52 in the future. Late in the Cold War, the Air Force configured a number of B-52G as ship-killers carrying AGM-84 Harpoon missiles.
Given increasing concerns about the growing naval capabilities among potential near peer-opponents, such as Russia and China, the Air Force has been working on restoring the anti-ship capabilities of both B-52 and B-1 bombers. On June 21, 2018, the service announced it the 28th Bomb Wing and its B-1s at Ellsworth Air Force Base would be the first to return to this rolearmed with AGM-158C Long Range Anti-Ship Missile (LRASM).
Lastly, the larger "weapons" the Air Force might be looking to integrate onto the B-52s using the new pylons may actually be air-launched unmanned combat air vehicles. The Air Force Research Laboratory has been working on a number of conceptual armed, lower cost drones as part of the Low Cost Attritable Strike (LCAS) and Low Cost Attritable Aircraft Technology (LCAAT) programs.
A B-52 would be a perfect platform to carry those drones closer to the target area, effectively extending their range and potentially helping them penetrate deeper into denied areas. It might even be able to recover them at the end of a mission, a concept the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency is also working on as part of its Gremlins drone swarm program.
A briefing slide from 2017 that gives an overview of Low Cost Attritable Aircraft Technology (LCAAT) program.
But adding any such long-range, super-fast strike weapon, or other type of advanced underwing store, to the B-52’s inventory would help keep those aircraft viable during higher-end conflicts in the decades to come. The Air Force is separately looking to re-engine the bombers to make them more cost-effective to fly through at least 2040. Without an improved stand-off capability, the bombers will still find themselves only increasingly vulnerable to hostile fighters, advanced enemy air defenses, and associated long-range sensors.
The HRC pylons could help the Air Force turn the B-52s into flying hypersonic missile trucks that would offer increased flexibility during a crisis. In 2016, the service had raised the possibility of expanding the bomber's ability to carrying smaller conventional bombs and missiles, turning it into an "arsenal ship" that could orbit over or near the battlefield providing support across a wide area. The new weapons racks would be well in line with this concept and would expand the available weapons the aircraft could carry in that role.
And combined with a high-supersonic or hypersonic cruise missile, the planes could have the ability to rapidly engage critical time-sensitive targets, including pop-up air defenses, mobile nuclear-capable ballistic missile launchers and other advanced weapons, and even senior elements of an enemy’s regime, while operating safely at the edge of an opponent’s integrated air defense network. Of course, even if the bombers just end up being able to carry multiple MOABs into a limited conflict zone, such as Afghanistan, it would be a fearsome capability.
Given the Air Force’s aggressive planned schedule to develop the HRC pylons, we may not have to wait long to see what the service actually has in store next for the venerable B-52s.
BUITENAARDSE BOODSCHAPPEN OF IETS ANDERS ? ( VIDEO )
BUITENAARDSE BOODSCHAPPEN OF IETS ANDERS ? ( VIDEO )
Het fenomeen UFO is vrij bekend, maar daarnasst bestaat ook een vreemd soort lichtbollen die vaak orbs worden genoemd.
Soms is het moeilijk om het verschil tussen die twee te ontdekken en nu zijn er beelden opgedoken van mensen die zelfs die orbs schijnen aan te raken.
Er zijn zoveel mysterieuze dingen om ons heen, dat het soms moeilijk is om onderscheid tussen bepaalde dingen te maken.
Eéntje is het verschil tussen wat wij normaal gesproken een UFO noemen en een soort lichtbol of orb. Vaak worden kleinere UFO’s ook weer orbs genoemd, dus kan het soms verwarrend zijn.
Bij een UFO wordt in het algemeen meer aan een soort solide iets gedacht een object gemaakt van metalen of stoffen die buitenaardsen wellicht gebruiken die daarop lijken. Bij lichtbollen of orbs denken we meer aan bepaalde vormen van energie die als het ware door de lucht zweven.
Orbs zijn witte energiebollen, ook wel een geestbal genoemd. Entiteiten (geesten) kunnen zich in deze vorm laten zien, in de vorm van een witte energiebol. Deze bollen kunnen ook gefotografeerd worden.
Meestal zijn dit soort bollen zichtbaar op plekken waar veel energieën zitten. Op begraafplaatsen, kerken, in huizen en op plekken waar bijvoorbeeld veel is gebeurd. Iedereen kan zo'n orb op de foto krijgen, het liefste met flits.
Orbs kunnen ook gefilmd worden. Meestal gebeurd dit onverwachts, maar er zijn ook echter mensen die een camera neerzetten en orb op de film kunnen zien. Dit is heel mooi! Zelf heb ik ook een orb op de film, die behoorlijk snel door het beeld vliegt. Als je inzoomt op en orb kan het zijn dat je er diverse gezichten in kunt zien. Dit zijn de gezichten van de overleden persoo(ne)n. Er kunnen meerdere gezichten waargenomen worden in de energiebol.
Met bovenstaande in het achterhoofd, het volgende bericht van een lezer:
Ik stuitte per ongeluk op de volgende video.
Het betreft een paar enorme lichtbollen, en daar staan 2 man pal onder, en volgens mij raken ze hem zelfs aan.
Als je kijkt naar het licht, en de reflectie ervan, dan kan ik niet anders zeggen als dat de opname wel echt moet zijn.
Misschien dat jullie dit met lezers willen delen.
Bij deze:
Het ziet er inderdaad echt uit en ook als je de commentaren onder de video bekijkt, dan zijn veel mensen er wel van overtuigd dat die beelden niet nep zijn.
Dat betekent niet dat het ook zo is; ze zouden ook nog wel degelijk nep kunnen zijn want je kunt tegenwoordig bijna geen enkele video meer vertrouwen. Zeker niet die waarvan verder erg weinig bekend is.
Het is niet bekend waar dit is opgenomen, noch wie die mensen zijn.
Dit soort vreemde lichtbollen bestaan en in de onderstaande video zijn daar nog een aantal overtuigende voorbeelden van.
Maar, wat ze nu precies zijn, blijft vooralsnog toch nog steeds een raadsel.
Guys, I found this structure on the moon Triton. Its in orbit around the planet Neptune. The structure shows many right angles and looks to have been made recently. I also noticed that NASA failed to blur out this building, but did notice that others of similar size in the same photo were covered in a blur spot, even though the other areas around it were focused. That indicates that NASA did blur it out so the public would not find it. If NASA is hiding these structures, then it only confirms that these are structures created by intelligent beings.
