Enceladus “the only body besides Earth to satisfy all of the basic requirements for life,” Cassini reveals
Enceladus “the only body besides Earth to satisfy all of the basic requirements for life,” Cassini reveals
Data beamed back by the Cassini spacecraft reveals that Enceladus, Saturn’s sixth-largest moon, isn’t shy about blasting large organic molecules into space.
Hydrothermal processes in the moon’s rocky core could synthesize organics from inorganic precursors. Alternatively, these processes could be transforming preexisting organics by heating, or they could even generate geochemical conditions in the subsurface ocean of Enceladus that would allow possible forms of alien life to synthesize biological molecules.

Mass spectrometry readings beamed back by NASA’s Cassini craft show that Enceladus is bursting with organic molecules. The moon’s icy surface is pockmarked with deep cracks that spew complex, carbon-rich compounds into space. Scientists at the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) say these compounds are likely the result of interactions between the moon’s rocky core and warm waters from its subsurface ocean.
Why so organic?
“We are, yet again, blown away by Enceladus,” said SwRI’s Dr. Christopher Glein, co-author of a paper describin the discovery.
“Now we’ve found organic molecules with masses above 200 atomic mass units. That’s over ten times heavier than methane. With complex organic molecules emanating from its liquid water ocean, this moon is the only body besides Earth known to simultaneously satisfy all of the basic requirements for life as we know it.”
The Cassini mission, a cooperative project of NASA, ESA (European Space Agency) and the Italian Space Agency, is widely-held to be one of the most ambitious space exploration missions we’ve ever embarked upon. Launched on October 15, 1997, Cassini spent some 13 years studying the gas giant and its moons. The craft also flew by Venus (April 1998 and July 1999), Earth (August 1999), the asteroid 2685 Masursky, and Jupiter (December 2000), before settling in on Saturn’s orbit on July 1st, 2001.

On September 15, 2017, NASA de-commissioned the aging craft with a bang: they deorbited Cassini, letting it fall towards Saturn’s core and burn up in its atmosphere.
However, the wealth of information this tiny craft beamed back from its travels is still giving astronomers a lot to work on. Before its fiery demise, Cassini sampled the plume material ejected from the subsurface of Enceladus. Using its Cosmic Dust Analyzer (CDA) and the SwRI-led Ion and Neutral Mass Spectrometer (INMS) instruments, the craft analyzed both the plume itself and Saturn’s E-ring — which is formed by ice grains from the plumes trapped in Saturn’s gravity well.

During one of Cassini’s particularly close flybys of Enceladus (Oct. 28, 2015), the INMS detected molecular hydrogen in the moon’s plume ejections. Previous flybys also revealed the presence of a global subsurface ocean and a rocky core. This was the first indication that the moon can boast active geochemical below the surface, most likely between water and rocks in hydrothermal vents.
The presence of hydrogen was also grounds for great enthusiasm at NASA — the element is a known source of chemical energy for microbes living in hydrothermal vents here on good ol’ Earth.
“Once you have identified a potential food source for microbes, the next question to ask is ‘what is the nature of the complex organics in the ocean?'” says SwRI’s Dr. Hunter Waite, INMS principal investigator and paper coauthor. “This paper represents the first step in that understanding — complexity in the organic chemistry beyond our expectations!”
The findings are significant enough to influence further exploration, Glen believes. Any spacecraft that flies towards Enceladus in the future should make a point of going through its plume to analyze these complex organic molecules with a high-resolution mass spectrometer to “help us determine how they were made.”
“We must be cautious, but it is exciting to ponder that this finding indicates that the biological synthesis of organic molecules on Enceladus is possible.”
The paper “Macromolecular organic compounds from the depths of Enceladus” has been published in the journal Nature.
In tegenstelling tot wat eerder werd gedacht, is “Oumuamua”, de eerste waargenomen interstellaire bezoeker van ons zonnestelsel, geen asteroïde maar een komeet. Dat concluderen wetenschappers van het coördinatiecentrum voor aardscheerders (NEOCC) van het Europees Ruimtevaartagentschap (ESA) in het Italiaanse Frascati.
De wetenschappers analyseerden de baan van het sigaarvormige object. De vorm van de baan kan niet alleen verklaard worden door de zwaartekracht, schrijft vakblad Nature.
“Oumuamua”, dat vermoedelijk tussen 400 en 800 meter lang is, kruiste in 2017 de binnenste regionen van ons zonnestelsel en zette nadien zijn koers voort in de interstellaire ruimte. Het ging om de eerste waargenomen bezoeker uit een ander zonnestelsel. Maar astronomen gaan ervan uit dat het wel vaker voorkomt, maar tot nu toe steeds onopgemerkt bleef.
Is ‘Oumuamua an Interstellar Asteroid or Comet?

Dark UFO Moves Low Over Moons Surface Over Tycho Crater, June 24, 2018, UFO Sightings Daily.
Date of sighting: June 24, 2018
Location of sighting: Tycho crater, Earths moon
Source: MUFON #92942
Here is a great video of a dark disk moving over the moons surface in the area of Tycho crater. The disk is so low, it leaves a shadow on the surface as it crosses the moon. This is 100% evidence that aliens exist. This is amazing!
Scott C. Waring
Eyewitness states:
UFO HOVERING TYCHO CRATER. THE OBJECT SEEM TO PRODUCT A SHADOW ON THE MOON.
A strange glowing sphere was spotted flying over Wales, which had many conspiracy theorists suggesting it was a UFO.
The video of the UFO sighting was reportedly shot in north Wales. It shows the ball of light moving across the night sky.
In the video, the cameraman said that the object was bright enough that it can be seen with the naked eye.
He wasn’t sure whether the object was travelling towards him or away from him. He concluded that it was not a spotlight.
According to the witness, it appeared to change direction as it was travelling across the sky.
The mysterious UFO sighting video sparked debates online, with commenters discussing what the object might have been.
One commenter said that they had seen something similar down south a few years ago.
Another one added that the UFO in the video has no navigation lights or any frame. He noted that it definitely met the criteria for a UFO whatever it is and whatever its origin.
However, some were not convinced what the video has shown.
One viewer said that it could be a helicopter ride at an amusement park or at a fair. He added that it looked like a Ferris wheel towards the end.
Description: This is a brief clip of the massive UFO sighting over New Jersey on the night of July 14th, 2001. It shows the formation of the lights as they appeared to be formed in a "v-shaped/diamond shape". The object cruises slowly over the town as some of the lights do flicker briefly. If you see carefully, they flicker in nearly the same spot as the object maintains perfect speed.
Several news organisations revealed in 2017 the existence of the Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program (AATIP), an American government-funded investigation into UFOs from 2007 to 2012. However, the $22 million program wasn’t the first of its kind.
Official government studies on UFOs officially started in the 1940s with Project Sign, gathering some of the most credible footages of the aerial phenomenon to date. Interest in UFOs and aliens across the world reignited with the revelation in 2017 that the American government was actively investigating UFOs.
One of the most credible modern UFO sightings took place in New Jersey Turnpike.
On July 14, 2001, motorists on the New Jersey Turnpike stopped alongside a highway and looked towards the sky. The reason for their strange action was the sighting of mysterious orange and yellow lights in a V formation above the Arthur Kill Waterway between Staten Island in New York and Carteret in New Jersey for around 15 minutes just after midnight.
One of the witnesses was Lt. Daniel Tarrant of Carteret Police Department. Many metro area residents from the Throgs Neck Bridge on Long Island and Fort Lee, New Jersey near the George Washington Bridge also witnessed the same.
Air traffic controllers denied any unusual sightings that night, but New York Strange Phenomena Investigators (NY-SPI) group claimed they obtained FAA radar data that corroborated the UFO sightings.

Filer’s Files #25 – 2018 Astronauts UFOs Are Real - PART I
In special reports, this week’s files cover: Astronaut Major Gordon Cooper Believed in UFOs, Russian Cosmonauts and Generals Confirm UFOs Are Real, Shocking Truth and Sun Stands Still Over Israel. Mars Has Liquid Water, Trump to Establish Space Force, Yahweh (God) and His Flying Machines, and Earth Hit by a Comet and a Great Flood
Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over California, Florida, Massachusetts, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio. Oregon, Texas, Washington and West Virginia
Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over, Brazil, Canada, China, Dominican Republic, Iran, 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.

Astronaut Major Gordon Cooper Believed in UFOs
Major Cooper was a firm believer in UFOs. While flying with several other USAF pilots over Germany in 1957, we sighted numerous radiant flying discs above us. We couldn’t tell how high they were. We couldn’t get anywhere near their altitude.
While piloting an F-86 Sabrejet over Western Germany. They were metallic, saucer-shaped discs at considerable altitude and could out-maneuver all American fighter planes.
Major Cooper also testified before the United Nations: “I believe that these extra-terrestrial vehicles and their crews are visiting this planet from other planets… Most astronauts were reluctant to discuss UFOs.” “I did have occasion in 1951 to have two days of observation of many flights of them, of different sizes, flying in fighter formation, generally from east to west over Europe.”
One of the original Mercury Astronauts and the last American to fly in space alone. On May 15, 1963 he shot into space in a Mercury capsule for a 22 orbit journey around the world. During the final orbit,
Major Gordon Cooper told the tracking station at Muchea (near Perth, Australia) that he could see a glowing, greenish object ahead of him quickly approaching his capsule. The UFO was real and solid, because it was picked up by Muchea’s tracking radar. Cooper’s sighting was reported by the National Broadcast Company, which was covering the flight step by step; but when Cooper landed, reporters were told that they would not be allowed to question him about the UFO sighting.
In 1957, when Cooper was 30 and a Captain, he was assigned to Fighter Section of the Experimental Flight Test Engineering Division at Edwards AFB in California. He acted as a test pilot and project manager. On May 3 of that year, he had a crew setting up an Askania cinetheodolite precision landing system on a dry lake bed. This cinetheodolite system would take pictures at one frame per second as an aircraft landed. The crew consisted of James Bittick and Jack Getty’s who began work at the site just before 08:00, using both still and motion picture cameras. According to his accounts, later that morning they returned to report to
Cooper that they saw a “strange-looking, saucer-like” aircraft that did not make a sound either on landing or take-off. A camera crewman approached the saucer, it rose up above the area and flew off at a speed faster than any known aircraft.”
According to his accounts, Cooper realized that these men, who on a regular basis have seen experimental aircraft flying and landing around them as part of their job of filming those aircraft, were clearly worked up and unnerved. They explained how the saucer hovered over them, landed 50 yards away from them using three extended landing gears and then took off as they approached for a closer look. They took photographs and film. There was a special Pentagon number to call to report such incidents: he called and soon was reported up the chain of command until he was instructed by a general to have the film developed, but to make no prints of it, and send it right away in a locked courier pouch. As he had not been instructed to not look at the negatives before sending them, he did. He said the quality of the photography was excellent as would be expected from the experienced photographers who took them. What he saw was exactly what they had described to him. He did not see the film before everything was sent away. He expected that there would be a follow up investigation since an aircraft of unknown origin had landed in a highly classified military installation, but nothing was ever said of the incident again. He was never able to track down what happened to those photos. He assumed that they ended up going to the Air Force’s official UFO investigation, Project Blue Book, which was based at Wright Patterson Air Force Base.
He held claim until his death that the U.S. government was indeed covering up information about UFOs. He pointed out that there were hundreds of reports made by his fellow pilots, many coming from military jet pilots sent to respond to radar or visual sightings from the ground.[7]
In his memoirs, Cooper wrote he had seen other unexplained aircraft several times during his career, and also said hundreds of similar reports had been made. He further claimed these sightings had been “swept under the rug” by the U.S. government. In 1978 he also testified before the UN on the topic.[5]
Throughout his later life Cooper expressed repeatedly in interviews he had seen UFOs and described his recollections for the documentary Out of the Blue.
And according to a taped interview by J. L. Ferrando, Major Cooper said: “For many years I have lived with a secret, in a secrecy imposed on all specialists in astronautics. I can now reveal that every day, in the USA, our radar instruments capture objects of form and composition unknown to us. And there are thousands of witness reports and a quantity of documents to prove this, but nobody wants to make them public. Why? Because authority is afraid that people may think of God knows what kind of horrible invaders. So the password still is: We have to avoid panic by all means.” I believe that these extra-terrestrial vehicles and their crews are visiting this planet from other planets. Most astronauts were reluctant to discuss UFOs.
“I was furthermore a witness to an extraordinary phenomenon, here on this planet Earth. It happened a few months ago in Florida. There I saw with my own eyes a defined area of ground being consumed by flames, with four indentions left by a flying object which had descended in the middle of a field.
Beings had left the craft (there were other traces to prove this). They seemed to have studied topography, they had collected soil samples and, eventually, they returned to where they had come from, disappearing at enormous speed… I happen to know that authority did just about everything to keep this incident from the press and TV, in fear of a panicky reaction from the public.”
Russian Cosmonauts and Generals Confirm UFOs Are Real.
COSMONAUT MAJOR GENERAL VLADIMIR KOVALYONOK: Saljut VI Mission 1981
Many cosmonauts have seen phenomena which are far beyond the experiences of earthmen. For ten years I never spoke on such things. “The encounter you asked me about happened on May 5, 1981, at about 6 PM, during the Saljut Mission. At that time we were over the area of South Africa, moving towards the area of the Indian Ocean. I just made some gymnastic exercises, when I saw in front of me, through a porthole, an object which I could not explain. It is impossible to determine distances in Space. A small object can appear large and far away and the other way around. Sometimes a cloud of dust appears like a large object. Anyway, I saw this object and then something happened I could not explain, something impossible according to the laws of Physics. The object had this shape, elliptical, and flew with us. From a frontal view it looked like it would rotate in flight direction.
It only flew straight, but then a kind of explosion happened, very beautiful to watch, of golden light. This was the first part. Then, one or two seconds later, a second explosion followed somewhere else and two spheres appeared, golden and very beautiful. After this explosion I just saw white smoke, then a cloud-like sphere. Before we entered the darkness, we flew through the terminator, the twilight-zone between day and night. We flew eastwards, and when we entered the darkness of the Earth shadow, I could not see them any longer. The two spheres never returned.” During his lecture Michael Hesemann presented filmed interviews with four Cosmonauts each with similar stories. Thanks to Michael Hesemann
Shocking Truth
Dan Johnson writes, This is from a book that Frank sent out a few years back called, The Shocking Truth pages 54 and 55 by Albert Coe. I believe that it explains why water is so important and why the ETs come to this planet for water. In momentarily side tracking our tour, I believe that you will have a clearer understanding of the tremendous forces involved and why this huge ship must carry its own water supply, but we do hope, that the everlasting probe of mans mind will someday surmount this problem and the research of science, solve the riddle of lesser dynamics, in creation of this precious fluid. In a realm of possibility it could also open the way t o penetrate the fringes of infinity.
This manifestation is peculiar only to certain planets, in comparable placement to a sun, with its appearance and continuance dependent on mass, thermal mechanics, gravitational forces and energy synchronization between planet and sun, in any given solar system. An excellent example of these trends may be gamed, in an analysis of Mars and Earth, two of the three water bearing planets of this system. (The 3rd being Venus)
The location, bulk and dynamics of Earth are ideal in producing and retention of abundant water in its atmosphere and seas, for an extended period of time, still a depreciation is evident in our thirteen thousand years of record.
Sun Stands Still Over Israel
In the Bible Joshua 10-12 states “After an all-night march from Gilgal, Joshua took them by surprise. 10 The Lord threw them into confusion before Israel, so Joshua and the Israelites defeated them completely at Gibeon. Israel pursued them along the road going up to Beth Horon and cut them down all the way to Azekah and Makkedah. 11 As they fled before Israel on the road down from Beth Horon to Azekah, the Lord hurled large hailstones down on them, and more of them died from the hail than were killed by the swords of the Israelites. 12 On the day the Lord gave the Amorites over to Israel, Joshua said to the Lording the presence of Israel:
‘Sun, stand still over Gibeon, and you, moon, over the Valley of Aijalon.’ 13 So the sun stood still, and the moon stopped, till the nation avenged itself on its enemies,
as it is written in the Book of Jashar.
The sun stopped in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day. 14 There has never been a day like it before or since, a day when the Lord listened to a human being. Surely the Lord was fighting for Israel! Then Joshua returned with all Israel to the camp at Gilgal.
Sun, stand still over Gibeon
Some have argued that evidence for this long day is found in other cultures: It is interesting to note that parallel accounts in the records of other nations show that the incident of “Joshua’s Long Day” is not an isolated one. There is indisputable evidence from the modern science of ethnology that such an event occurred as Joshua records. In the ancient Chinese writings there is a legend of a long day. The Incas of Peru and the Aztecs of Mexico have a like record. There is a Babylonian and Persian legend of a day that was miraculously extended. Herodotus, an ancient historian, recounts that while in Egypt, priest showed him their temple records, and that he read of a day which was twice the natural length of any day that had ever been recorded (Robert Boyd, Boyds Bible Handbook, pp. 122,123).
Joshua’s army had marched all night from Gilgal to Gibeon, a distance of twenty miles, to do battle with their enemies. Joshua needed the battle time prolonged because five strong kings had brought out their armies to fight his army in the open country. Joshua had the enemy on the run and he did not want them to get back to their fortified cities. More time was needed for his troops to catch them. To prevent their return more daylight was needed. Hence, he asked God to lengthen the day.
It has been pointed out that if in fact the earth was stopped for a period of twenty-four hours, inconceivable catastrophe would likely befall Earth and everything on its surface. Those who believe in the omnipotence of God would believe that Yahweh could have prevented such catastrophe
It takes 24 hours for the Earth to rotate but the sun never stops shining. God could have sent a bright light that are sometimes seen shining down from an UFOs lighting up the whole countryside. God might have moved the sun in space to continue shinning down on the Earth or did the Earth slow its daily revolution. As the Earth rotates roughly half the Earth gets dark. A large mirror or shiny spaceship could shine the sun’s rays on the dark side of Earth as the Russians have proposed to do with a huge
President Trump officially directed the Pentagon to establish a sixth branch of the U.S. military in space on Monday. Speaking at a National Space Council meeting at the White House, Mr. Trump called for a “Space Force” to ensure American dominance on the high frontier.
The president also signed his administration’s third Space Policy Directive, calling for establishment of new protocols and procedures to manage and monitor the increasing numbers of satellites in low-Earth orbit and the tens of thousands of pieces of space junk and debris that pose an increasing threat to costly spacecraft. Trump states, “My administration is reclaiming America’s heritage as the world’s greatest space-faring nation,” he went on. “The essence of the American character is to explore new horizons and to tame new frontiers. But our destiny, beyond the Earth, is not only a matter of national identity, but a matter of national security.” He said when it comes to defending America, “it is not enough to merely have an American presence in space. We must have American dominance in space.”
He wants to return humans to the moon before eventual missions to Mars and streamline federal space bureaucracy..
These Files have often discussed the growing space craft arsenal for years. William Tompkins and others have claimed the US had military assets in space since the 1960s. The president is acknowledging something that is already there. Military assets in space keep track of alien craft and somea reports indicate there are tracking and targeting ET craft.
Mars Has Liquid Water
Pools of liquid water may even now exist just a few meters below the Martian surface, according to new research. The finding hints that humans may one day be able to tap into Mars‘s watery bounty.
Although the surface of Mars is too frigid for liquid water to be stable, pockets of water underground could be kept warm enough by an insulating blanket of porous sediment, an international team writes in the November issue of the journal Icarus.
The new theory is based on studies of Mars’s biggest outflow channels, which stretch for hundreds of kilometers across the southern circum-Chryse region. The ancient channels were likely carved by gushing torrents of water, each hundreds to thousands of times larger than the Mississippi River. These massive rivers are believed to have erupted from underground sources, suggesting that shallow groundwater reservoirs were once relatively common in Mars’s upper crust.
The images show shapes similar to a house with a turn-around driveway, and sort of a monument to the right. Further right and above a tower-like shape is visible. Note possible face in center of image. Thanks to Norman Bryden http://www.marsstructures.com/00020006.html
Mars Groundwater Would Be Easy to Tap
If they exist, today’s Martian groundwater reservoirs might be similar to the aquifers that lie beneath icy permafrost in Earth’s northern regions, said study co-author Jeffrey Kargel, a research scientist at the University of Arizona. That means Martian reservoirs might be found by searching for deep dunes overlying known water-rich areas, such as salt beds or glacial ice. (See “Mars Water Discovered, ‘Tasted’ by Lander—A First.”)
“From a biological perspective, the presence of liquid water is the only constraint for life development on Mars, given the presence of different energy sources and alternative radiation-protection mechanisms,” said co-author Alberto Fairén of NASA’s Ames Research Center.
“Molecular adaptations may have enabled bacteria or other microorganisms to survive in the Martian underground without energy from the sun, just as some microbes thrive in icy subsurface areas on Earth,”Fairén added. Thanks to National Geographic
Newton is a large crater on Mars, with a diameter close to 300 km.[1] It is located south of the planet’s equator in the heavily cratered highlands of TerravSirenum.
The side of the crator gullies shows where water is leaking to the bottom where dam like structures have been built to collect the water. Many crators have tubes to carry the water to various locations where it can grow crops, water animals and Martians. We speculate many martians live underground due frequent asteroid bombardment.
Bill Bean writes the Bible tells of UFOs and the glory of God’s craft. In Hebrew chariots, the glory of the Lord and clouds refer to anything that flies like UFOs.
The Hovering Vehicle Glory and Light in Exodus 40:34-38.
Then a cloud covered the tent of the congregation, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. And Moses was not able to enter into the tent of the congregation, because the cloud abode thereon, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle… And when the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle, the children of Israel went onward in all their journeys: But if the cloud were not taken up, then they journeyed not till the day that it was taken up. For the cloud of the Lord was upon the tabernacle by day, and fire was on it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys. The flying object remained in the presence of the nation wherever it went.
Spinning Chariots of Fire Take Elijah Up
2 Kings 2:11-12.
And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven. And Elisha saw it, and he cried my father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. And he saw him no more: and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces.
Elijah and Elisha are talking and suddenly a bright cavalry of glowing vehicles appears and Elijah ascends into the sky in a spinning-flying vehicle. The word translated into horses, ‘cuwc’, means rapid flight. This is most likely the army spoken of where hosts appears.
Demons may have found modern beliefs in aliens to be a great cover for their operations that have been reported for thousands of years. In cultures throughout the world, there are tales of intimate encounters with otherworldly beings. Though it cannot always be explained, paranormal phenomena is reported by numerous and credible witnesses. Thanks to Bill Bean
Earth Hit by a Comet and a Great Flood
The Sumerian language is well-understood, and for many years archaeologists have studied the “myths” told about the Sumerian “gods” in stories such as the Epic of Gilgamesh. An Ancient Middle East archeologist named Zechariah Sitchin revolutionized our understanding of these Sumerian “myths”. Sitchin realized that eleven of the “gods” described in the Sumerian records were actually the heavenly bodies of our solar system (the planets plus the sun and moon). Sitchin further realized that the Sumerians had a knowledge of the outer planets that, by all rights, they shouldn’t have had. Sitchin proved this to the world by submitting to NASA detailed descriptions of the outer planets (as found in the Sumerian records) BEFORE the NASA space probes reached these planets. Images sent back by the probes confirmed that the ancient Sumerians indeed knew what these planets looked like. Just as interesting, the Sumerians always described their gods (the planets) starting with Pluto, then Neptune, Uranus, etc., as if they were seeing the planets from a heavenly body (or spacecraft) that was entering our solar system from the outside.
Whether one agrees with Zecharia Sitchin or chooses to interpret Sumerian texts differently, it is clear that these ancient writings speak of technologies and sciences that we have only recently developed. It was not until we had satellite mapping capability, and the sciences of anthropology, archaeology, and genetics that we could correctly interpret these messages cast forward as myths and legends by a dying civilization, possibly to warn us of the comet, symbolized by the mythological Serpent in the sky (Thanks to Wood and Campbell).
In ancient Egypt the serpent was the symbol for duality, such as lies at the origin of ‘good’ and ‘evil’. It was a symbol for both unchecked chaos and multiplicity, and for higher intellect, synthesis, and creation. The Cobra, for example, was the symbol of Lower Egypt, and represented duality as a primordial creative impulse (West, 1993: 132). The comet or Serpent in the sky was known to bring both destruction and renewal, (duality) as expressed in the concept of the First Time (Zep Tepi).
They also conclude that we are rapidly entering a window of time for Earth-orbit-crossing comets, indicating that the Great Serpent of legend which brought destruction via fire and water to Earth may soon return (cf. Shoemaker-Levy 9 and Jupiter).
A collision of a comet with Earth is theorized by Kristan-Tollmann and Tollmann to have occurred 9565 years ago, based on their worldwide study of myths and legends. In order to explain convergent accounts from around the globe, they suggest that the comet broke up into seven main fragments, all of which slammed into the oceans creating giant tsunamis that ravaged the continents. This catastrophe brought earthquakes, flood, volcanoes, and darkness around the globe. The ice covering much of the northern hemisphere melted. Only little fragments struck the continents (e.g. Australia), according to their theory. In myths the gods are blamed for causing this disaster. Whole islands are made up of bones of animals and people who were killed by the tsunamis. High mountains caves inland also have the bones indicating tremendous waves sweeping the Earth.
In ancient time Paleolithic claiming cave men indicate civilization actually was universal. There was a universal civilization. We are seeing the early attempts now to reconstruct the universal system.
Sophisticated 400 foot tall pyramids were built 5000 years ago in England, Egypt, South America, Indus Valley and Samaria.
The real history of humans of Earth has been lost and there is some evidence of the ancient civilization with modern humans going back 140.000 years.. The former civilization was probably lost during ice ages and flood. In the myths of the 59 northern and the legends of several dozen central and southern American tribes of Indians, the same elements of the legend of the Flood as in the Bible are found. The Earth experience global warming and melting of glaciers coupled with disaster from the sky..
The ancient ceremonies of Halloween celebrated the Day of the Dead on October 31. Pleiades culminates on this day. When midway between rising and setting.
the Pleiades culminates – reaches its highest point in the heavens – at midnight. Great meteor shower from Pleiades (heart of the Bull) denizen of meteor of the Taurid fireballs. A faded remnant of great meteor shower that destroyed much on Earth.
The Day of the Dead survives, celebrates life and honors the dead throughout the world In Asia, there are similar festivals. For example, the Chinese celebrated the Ghost Festival, which was a day to pay homage to dead ancestors. The Japanese celebrated something similar called O-bonor merely Bon. Even Vietnam has a variant of the Ghost Festival called Tet Trung Nguyen. In Korea, there is Chuseok or Hankawi, in which deceased ancestors are ritualized. In Nepal, there is the cow pilgrimage called Gia Jatra to honor the recently deceased. In the Philippines, there is the Day of the Dead (Araw ng mga Patay), where tombs are cleaned and repainted. The list goes on and on (see reference 5). The Pleiades (/ˈplaɪ.ədiːz, ˈpliːə-/, also known as the Seven Sisters are an open star cluster containing middle-aged, hot B stars located in the constellation of Taurus. It is among the nearest star clusters to Earth and is the cluster most obvious to the naked eye where the comet appeared to originate.
It seems no coincidence that cultures all around the world in both present and ancient times have had a holiday when the dead were remembered and animals were sacrificed. We can make a pretty strong argument that this holiday goes back to a time when all the peoples lived together—and then they took this holiday to various parts of the world.
Otherwise, it seems strange and difficult to explain how these cultures developed celebrations that are so similar. This would likely push the true origin of “Halloween” and these other “days of the dead” to the time before the dispersion at Babel (Genesis 11), over 4,200 years ago, after which different early cultures began to vary in its practice.
Noah’s Ark
Was it a day to remember those who died in the Flood and a continuation of the sacrifices that Noah made after coming off the Ark? Because the celebrations call for the remembrance of the dead and have sacrifices, it is reminiscent of the large sacrifice that Noah and his family performed after the Flood. This would also explain why many other cultures have a variant of this regular sacrifice. When Noah and his family exited the Ark, they offered sacrifices to God
Like the memory of a loved one that never fades, Dia de Los Muertos also survives started by the Aztecs some 3,000 years ago. The festival couldn’t be quashed. It has also moved to certain regions of the United States. In Arizona, for example, there are more than a dozen events that mark the occasion to honor the dead. http://www.chuchotezvous.ru/mythological-disasters/867.html

Filer’s Files #25 – 2018 Astronauts UFOs Are Real - PART II
UFO Sightings in the United States
California Object
Victorville — Me and my wife were going to run a few errands when we noticed a strange round cloud on May 25, 2018. It was weird to us because it was the only cloud in the sky that day. I took a picture of it at 6:51 PM Pacific time. We went on with our business and came out the store at 7:31pm and the cloud was still there with a chemtrail through it. I found it odd and took 2 pictures while on the freeway and wanted to capture the beautiful view and cloud but noticed a round object in the picture. At first I thought it was a lens flare but it was too large and solid looking. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Florida Lights
Key West— Submitting this on behalf of “N,” a long time friend and work partner. On June 13, 2018, N was on a boat as usual offshore about a mile north-west of Key West. He was looking west admiring the sunset and noticed an unidentifiable object moving in a rapid, irregular fashion in the sky. N has been a sober and professional mariner in Key West for 18 years and has never seen anything like this. The object appeared partly transparent before briefly glowing white and orb like all around, then it disappeared. N used his Smartphone to take photos and it appeared in three out of four photos. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Massachusetts Boomerang
Visiting my family at the home where I grew up, after everyone else in the house was asleep, I was sitting on the back stoop, in view of the woods on May 25, 2018, feeling calm and peaceful I silently (in my head) invited any ships in the area to reveal themselves.
Within roughly a minute, a chevron (or triangular/boomerang) shaped object appeared over the woods, partially obscured by the tree line. I counted five green lights on the bottom of the object, which glided up slowly from the point of materialization at an angle that allowed me to view its full shape.
Viewing this object, I felt a sense of joy and I was invited to meet the occupants of the object. I declined, and thanked them for trusting me. Almost instantly, the object dematerialized. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Missouri Object
Moscow Mills— Driving down Graven’s Road I noticed it hovering to my right as I was driving on June 19, 2018 . I first thought it was a blimp. It was gray and white in color and then started to move left to right very quickly. Wished I could pull over to take a picture but there were no sides to the road. I lost sight of the object when a jet flew right next to it and then it quickly shifted to the left and disappeared.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
New Jersey Disc
Perth— 1. I was outside talking sitting down in the porch with my friend Johnnie. 2. Johnnie saw it and asked me if the object was a helicopter, we stared at it and I said no it can’t be, there’s no noise. 3. I thought it was a huge drone. 4. It seemed stationary and seemed to transform like it was getting ready for something. It had surface reflections and what looked like bluish lights, slow robotic movements. 5. Excitement and curiosity. 6. It disappeared. Thanks to MUFON CMS
New York Disc
NYC — We were on a boat by the Hudson River. We were on the upper deck of the boat.
No windows to reflect any lights. Thanks to MUFON CMS
North Carolina Lights
‘Mills River — My husband was standing at the front door about to head out, while I was reading on the couch June 16, 2018.. When he hollered for me to join him. I did, and in amazement I saw 4 bright orange lights in the sky, moving SE very slowly. At first, I thought it was lanterns, but these didn’t move like lanterns. I hollered for my teen to come record for me and she caught a video which I have. We observed one of the lights suddenly blink of existence, and the final 3 formed a triangle pointed to the left and shot straight up into the sky. We were all absolutely amazed and my youngest was terrified. I’m honestly still in amazement! Thanks to MUFON CMS
Ohio Light
Strongsville— I was leaving work on June 16, 2018, when in the southwestern sky, I saw an orange ball of light with a lighter orange halo that changed shape as a parachute might. It was the height of an airplane or slightly lower. It moved up in altitude smoothly for a minute, then moved back down, then up and out of my view after a total of 5 minutes. My impression was that it looked like a hot air balloon (?) Thanks to William Puckett, Director Http://www.UFOsnw.com,
Oregon Light
Portland— 1st UFO was photographed on may-17-18, 2018, at 6:18 PM, Was photographing the moon with 800mm lens, saw a flash reflection. UFO Lasted about 25 seconds.
2nd UFO on 06-22-18 @ 3:49:41 PM was photographed with a 300mm lens, same, saw a flash reflection, UFO lasted about 30 seconds. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Texas Disc
Gatesville— We were taking a picture of a bird on our pond and got something in the sky we can’t explain.
Photo was taken on June 1, 2018. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Washington Lights
SeaTac — I was at my parent’s house celebrating father’s day on June 17, 2018, when my dad noticed something in the sky. I came over and had to crouch down to finally see it. It was very high and initially looked like a bubble. It was round in shape and it seemed to be reflective of the sun. After grabbing a pair of binoculars, I could see the object was a transparent sphere but
lined with lights around the circumference of the perimeter. I just didn’t like not knowing what it was. After seeing the first one, another one came up from the left of where we were and stayed idle. My brother who came over to see what my father and I saw. We noticed a small black object also moving similar to the orbs. Thanks to MUFON CMS
West Virginia Orb
Crum — I was taking pictures of the clouds and sunset at 5:30 pm on June 15, 2018. At the time of the photo there was no birds of any kind flying. I didn’t even notice it until later when I was checking my photos. I took dozens of photos that day. And this was the only image with this strange dark looking object in it. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Worldwide UFO Sightings
Brazil Object
Recife, Brazil to Sao Paulo –I was in a commercial airplane flying from to Sao Paulo. I was taking photos out of the plane window of the sunset. I noticed something unusual and kept taking photos. Later when I studied the photos, I noticed dark disc-shaped objects and lights. It looked like they were waiting for something to happen. Photos after this showed what appeared to be orange UFO’s ascending out of the sun. Later, I researched and found orange UFO’s like these are seen all over the world but nobody knows what they are. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Canada Orb
Scarborough, Ontario— While outside afternoon work break on May 25, 2018, noticed a high distant flashing red -white light to the east. It was moving directly west -east half mile away when it stopped for about thirty seconds. It also was then flashing quite extreme of light. I alerted a co-worker and pointed out to him. He could now see it as I pulled out my camera and zoomed in and took some pictures. In two pictures with some detail captured this unknown object. The pictures were taken 3:25 pm. As I had taken about 10 pictures it was moving further away. That’s when I could not see it like it just disappeared. Thanks again for your strong interest into the matter. Paul Shishis
China Orbs
Dan Dong — I am from Finland and I was visiting China on July 14, 2013, visiting my wife`s family. My wife and two kids returned to our 5th floor apartment at 8.30 pm. When I looked out of the window I saw three hovering and flashing objects on the side of the 30 stories high apartment building, which is less than one mile away. They rose slowly and moved slowly flashing red, green, blue and white. My family and my wife’s family all saw the lights for 30 minutes that climbed so high they could not be observed. I took several digital pictures and short video with Canon Ixus 220 HS. In some pictures objects seemed triangular and in others doughnut shaped, Thanks to MUFON CMS
Dominican Republic Wedding
Amber Cove — We were on our honeymoon in the Dominican Republic on November 17, 2017. – I was taking pictures at port before returning to our cruise ship.
Later, when looking at pictures, we noticed a dark object in the sky in the background. Enlarged picture and noticed UFO-like object.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Iran Disc
Hamedan — I was on a domestic trip and I was taking photos of nature and my wife on June 2, 2018. I did not see anything at the moment because I was looking nature and did not know what I captured in my photo. When I was reviewing the photos I found a photo with this object. When I zoomed the picture I saw something in disk shape with no similarity with birds, airplanes or other objects. It was a thin disk shape with something in white under the object. I believe about other intelligence life out of our solar system. I used my Samsung A7 cell phone. Thanks to MUFON CMS

The US Government On The Verge Of Confiscating Supposed Debris Of The Roswell UFO Crash
The US Government On The Verge Of Confiscating Supposed Debris Of The Roswell UFO Crash
In 2011, a man discovered a number of artifacts in Roswell, New Mexico, where an alien spacecraft had supposedly crashed in 1947.
He took the mysterious metallic pieces to a number of labs for testing. Results came back showing that the mysterious artifacts were not from Earth.
“…either the lab made an analytical error or the material is not from Earth.”
The Roswell case, also dubbed the Roswell UFO incident, refers to the alleged crash of an alien spacecraft in Roswell, New Mexico, in the United States, on July 10. 1947.
The event marked the birth of modern ufology and led to numerous debates, theories, and speculations about the existence of extraterrestrial life.
Many others consider these claims totally unfounded.
But despite this, millions of people have since become firm believers in alien life, despite skeptics arguing that the event that occurred on July 10, 1947, was not related to extraterrestrial life in any way.
The ultimate truth is that when speaking about the Roswell crash, everyone wants’s evidence to back up the claims.
And while many people have claimed to have found pieces of the alleged UFO that crashed in New Mexico no one has approached the matter with scientific thinking.
That’s why in 2011, a UFO investigator said he discovered a peculiar material at the site where he believes the alien ship crashed in Roswell and even decided to perform lab tests on the strange piece, in order to prove it was part of a spaceship.

The man behind the ‘sensational’ discovery was Frank Kimbler who was a teacher of geology and earth sciences at the New Mexico Military Institute in Roswell.
When Mr. Kimbler arrived for the first time as a professor in the area, he thought it would be cool to investigate the local UFO legend: the crash of an alleged extraterrestrial space ship alien ship.
He thought it would be fun to search the area where the UFO had allegedly crashed and disintegrated in 1947, as well as to research what the military may have done to cover up any evidence of a possible alien ship.
Eventually, Mr. Kimbler decided it would be a good idea to start off his investigation by analyzing different satellite photos. He found that certain areas where the alleged ship had crashed appeared to have been burned, with unnatural geological features.
Carrying a metal detector, he managed to sneak into the area and find fragments of a strange metal (probably an alloy), in addition to some buttons that match those used by military personnel in the middle of the last century.
According to Alejandro Rojas from openminds.Tv who covered the discovery in 2011, Mr. Kimbler discovered “that the object was most likely about ¾ of a mile long and a few hundred feet wide, and facing the direction witnesses had reported. He also noticed this area had very straight edges, something unusual for a natural occurrence.”
The information gathered via satellite images, and in-situ offered more questions than answers.
Mr. Kimbler’s goal was to find physical evidnece of the crash. Now that he had found it, his next step was to see what he had found
The most important discovery made by Mr. Kimbler was a silvery metal that resembled aluminum.
While exploring the area where aliens had allegedly crashed, he discovered more silvery pieces that seemed to have been shredded, and some of the edges of the artifacts even appeared melted.
After gathering enough physical evidence, Mr. Kimbler turned to the Roswell International UFO Museum and Research Center where he showed his discoveries to the museum director, Julie Shuster, who introduced him to Don Schmitt.
The first tests were performed by New Mexico Tech in Socorro.
Scientists used microprobes to determine that the material Kimbler had found was aluminum, silicon, manganese and copper alloy.

Despite not being ‘unknown,’ or otherworldly, the material isn’t usually found in foil form.
With more questions than answers, Kimbler decided to obtain an isotopic analysis of the piece.
He turned to the University of New Mexico Institute of Meteoritics where he spoke with a researcher who was expert in isotopes.
Kimbler had not told the scientists anything about the piece he had brought.
As noted by Rojas in his piece for Openminds.tv, the research from the University of New Mexico Institute of Meteoritics told Kimbler that he wanted to test the piece as he suspected the material was from outer space.
Still without all the answers he needed, Bigelow Aerospace showed interest in helping Kimbler get to the bottom of the mystery. However, after months had gone by without any results, Kimbler decided to go elsewhere and find another lab where his piece could be adequately tested.
The money needed for the research was obtained by the UFO Museum. Eventually, the results came in, and everyone was left with a big surprise: Kimbler said that “either the lab made an analytical error or the material is not from Earth.”
Now, seven years into the study of the mysterious pieces, Kimbler says that the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) wants to confiscate the material he had found.
As explained in another article by Rojas for Openminds.tv, “initial isotopic ratio test done in conjunction with the Roswell International UFO Museum and Research Center was inconclusive but suggested the material may be of unearthly origins. Kimbler has continued research on the material and says he is close to proving the “ET origins of Roswell.”
And now that Kimbler says he is on the brink of proving how an alien ship did crash in Roswell in 1947, he is terrified that the government may confiscate his evidence.
“Kimbler was recently contacted by them and asked to bring the materials in on Monday, June 25. This news comes less than two weeks before the annual Roswell UFO festival,” explains ufo author Alejandro Rojas.
An excerpt of the email sent by Mr. Kimbler to Openminds.tv:
“The Bureau of Land Management contacted me today and requested that I bring the artifacts that I found down to their office in Roswell. They want their enforcement officer to look at the material and see if I’m in violation of US laws. [Their] own published document clearly says that anything less than 100 years old is not an artifact. It also says of human origin in all US laws. This a prelude to confiscation or fines or both. Seriously, folks, I’m one scientific test away from proving the ET origins of Roswell.”
Ancient Genetic Engineers: Do Ancient Texts Offer Evidence of Ancient Aliens?
Ancient Genetic Engineers: Do Ancient Texts Offer Evidence of Ancient Aliens?
Many people believe that the miraculous evolutionary leap that led to what the human species is today resembles more a laborious work of genetic engineering than a simple evolutionary process.
Is surprising that there are numerous ancient texts that speak of the creation of mankind and refer to a time when “beings” created mankind?
Curiously, according to many authors, the Bible also mentions the same thing.
It is also extremely surprising that advanced cultures such as the Sumerian flourished in a matter of days without leaving any traces of successive stages of evolution that indicate a progressive cultural, architectural or mathematical breakthrough in their history. It is as if these cultures popped out of nowhere and civilizations just came into existence.
These are just some of the points that have been completely ignored by mainstream scholars who have studied and analyzed ancient civilizations across the globe.
Are modern humans the result of Genetic engineering performed by beings, not from Earth?
Also, in a relatively short period of time, the primitive man emerged literally out of nowhere from nothing, creating huge empires, advanced civilizations which achieved the impossible while proving to be way more developed than what history as we know it is willing to admit. This leaves us with a couple of questions that have not been answered by mainstream scholars. Is it possible that there is a missing link in the “evolution process” of primitive man? And is it possible that “external” factors interfered with the development of primitive man and early civilizations on our planet?
The origin and the actual cause which eventually led to what we know about history today was written down by our ancestors thousands of years ago: where ancient man pointed towards the stars, towards Orion, Sirius, and other constellations, where according to them, Gods came from above, advanced beings that interfered directly and indirectly with the evolution process of human beings.
When we turn to the book of Genesis, we read how the creation of man occurred:
…25 God made the beasts of the earth after their kind, and the cattle after their kind, and everything that creeps on the ground after its kind; and God saw that it was good. 26 Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” 27 God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them…
Here, I the above text we cannot help and underline a few very important words that have been omitted by those who have studied ancient texts: “Let Us make man in Our image …”
Who are “They” who created man in “their” image?
Is it possible that Adam was the result of what many interpret as in vitro fertilization? And what if the genetic designers were the gods Enki his sister Ninhursag and Ningishzidda as some theorists propose?
Let us turn to the Popol Vuh, the ancient book of the Maya where we find very similar descriptions.
These beings who created mankind are referred to in the Popol Vuh as “the Creator, the Former, the Dominator, the Feathered-Serpent, they-who-engender, they-who-give-being, and hovered over the water as a dawning light.”
“Our work and our labor have accomplished its end.” The earth then was covered with various forms of animal life. And the Creator and Former said to the animals: “Speak now our name!” But the animals could not speak as a man. Then said their Makers: “Our glory is not yet perfect since ye cannot invoke us. Dens and food shall ye have, but as to your flesh, it shall be eaten. This is your destiny.”
Does the ancient text speak of several times “they” tried creating man? It seems as though these beings failed at the beginning, and in the “heaven” they sat and thought it through one more time. Can you literally sit in heaven? Well, probably, if you are in an airplane or other vehicles… right? But here is what the ancient texts say:
“Again there is counsel in heaven. “Let us try again; let us make them who are to be our vehicles and nourishers.” So the Creators determined to make man. Of red earth they molded his flesh; but when they had made him, they saw it was not good. He was without coherence, strengthless, inept, watery; he had been endowed with speech, but he had no intelligence; and straightway he was consumed in the water without being able to stand upright.”
Again the gods took counsel. It was decided to make man of the wood of the tzite cork-tree, and woman of the marrow of the zibac (willow); but the result was in no wise satisfactory — they were merely wooden manikins. And these are the people who inhabit the surface of the earth. They existed and multiplied, but had neither heart nor intelligence, nor memory of their Creators. They led a useless life and lived like the animals.
They had neither father nor mother, neither were they made by the ordinary agents in the work of creation, but their coming into existence was a miracle extraordinary, wrought by the special intervention of the Creator. “Verily, at last, did the gods look on beings who were worthy of their origin.”
Artist’s conception of what life could look like on the surface of an exoplanet.

NExSS considered how to interpret the presence of biosignatures, should we detect them on extrasolar planets.
“We’re moving from theorizing about life elsewhere in our Milky Way Galaxy to a robust science that will eventually give us the answer we seek to that profound question: Are we alone?” said Dr. Martin Still, an exoplanet scientist at NASA Headquarters.
The assessment comes as a new generation of space and ground-based telescopes are in development.
The NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope will characterize the atmospheres of some of the first small, rocky planets.
Other observatories — such as the Giant Magellan Telescope and the Extremely Large Telescope — are planning to carry sophisticated instruments capable of detecting the first exoplanet biosignatures.
Through their work, NExSS scientists aim to identify the instruments needed to detect potential life for future NASA missions.
The detection of atmospheric signatures of a few potentially habitable planets may possibly come before 2030, although whether the planets are truly habitable or have life will require more in-depth study.
Since humans won’t be able to visit distant planets and collect samples anytime soon, the light that a telescope observes will be all we have in the search for extraterrestrial life.
Telescopes can examine the light reflecting off a distant world to show us the kinds of gases in the atmosphere and their ‘seasonal’ variations, as well as colors like green that could indicate life.
These kinds of biosignatures can all be seen on our fertile Earth from space, but the new worlds we examine will differ significantly.
For example, many of the promising planets astronomers have found are around cooler stars, which emit infrared light, rather than our Sun’s high emissions of visible-light.
“What does a living planet look like? We have to be open to the possibility that life may arise in many contexts in a galaxy with so many diverse worlds — perhaps with purple-colored life instead of the familiar green-dominated life forms on Earth, for example. That’s why we are considering a broad range of biosignatures,” explained Dr. Mary Parenteau, an astrobiologist and microbiologist at NASA’s Ames Research Center.
The NExSS scientists assert that oxygen — the gas produced by photosynthetic organisms on Earth — remains the most promising biosignature of life elsewhere, but it is not foolproof. Abiotic processes on a planet could also generate oxygen.
“On early Earth, we wouldn’t be able to see oxygen, despite abundant life,” said Dr. Victoria Meadows, an astronomer at the University of Washington in Seattle.
“Oxygen teaches us that seeing, or not seeing, a single biosignature is insufficient evidence for or against life — overall context matters.”
Rather than measuring a single characteristic, the researchers argue that we should be looking at a suite of traits.
A planet must show itself capable of supporting life through its features, and those of its parent star.
The NExSS team will create a framework that can quantify how likely it is that a planet has life, based on all the available evidence.
With the observation of many planets, astronomers may begin to more broadly classify the ‘living worlds’ that show common characteristics of life, versus the ‘non-living worlds.’
“We won’t have a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ answer to finding life elsewhere. What we will have is a high level of confidence that a planet appears alive for reasons that can only be explained by the presence of life,” said Dr. Shawn Domagal-Goldman, an astrobiologist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center.

Elon Musk has long been obsessed with the idea of humanity spreading to other planets.
Now, a new study published this week has led him once again to urge people to leave their home world to embark on a journey that could lead to his death.
Experts say that there is at least a 41 percent chance that we are alone in the Milky Way and a 32 percent chance that we are the only advanced life form in the universe.
This led the billionaire founder of SpaceX to double his calls for the colonization of other worlds, leading social networks to preach his strange gospel.
Musk believes that humanity becoming a kind of multiple planets is the best way to guarantee our future survival, with our eyes on Mars as the first possible objective.
The signing of the business magnate born in South Africa is already building its first interplanetary ship, which it says will be ready for next year.

Elon Musk has long advocated the expansion of humanity to other planets and a study published this week has given credit to his call. Experts say that there is a 41% chance that we are alone in the Milky Way and a 32% chance that we will be the only advanced life form in the universe
Musk was responding to the research of the Future of Humanity Institute from the University of Oxford, who made predictions about the possibility of an extraterrestrial intelligent life.
Writing on Twitter, he said: "It is not known if we are the only civilization currently alive in the observable universe, but any possibility that we are will be added momentum to extend life beyond Earth
& # 39; that we must preserve the light of consciousness by becoming a space civilization and extending life to other planets.
As individuals, we will all die in the blink of an eye on a galactic time scale. that can live for a long time is civilization.
& # 39; Those who first go to other planets will face much more risk of death and hardship than those who remain.Some time, space travel will be safe and open to all. & # 39;
The study led the billionaire founder of Space X to duplicate his calls for the colonization of other worlds, leading to Social networks to spread their message
Writing on Twitter, Musk said: "That's why we must preserve the light of consciousnesses by becoming a space civilization and extending life to other planets"
He added:" As individuals, we will all die in the blink of an eye on a galactic time scale. What can last a long time is civilization. "
Musk announced last year that his private company SpaceX is working to send a cargo mission to Mars in 2022.
He hopes that this company will help boost the human colonization of Planet [19659002] He said he believes that once the difficult part is over, building the spacecraft, others will seize the opportunity to do it themselves.
Speaking at the South by Southwest technology and culture festival in Austin, Texas , in March, he added: "I think that once we build it, we will have a test point of something that other companies and countries can do and do.
& # 39; They certainly do not think it's possible, but if we do, they'll improve their game & # 39;
Musk also admitted that the first humans who dare to make the trip will risk a lot.
& # 39; It will be much more dangerous: difficult, dangerous, with a good chance of you dying & # 39; he added.
Musk announced last year that his private company SpaceX is working to send a cargo mission to Mars by 2022. His BFR rocket (print of the artist), currently in production, will bring satellites to orbit, crew and cargo to the ISS and will direct manned missions to the Moon and Mars
Earlier this year, Musk said the ship will be ready next year, but the trip to Mars will be "difficult, dangerous" and with a "good" chance that you will die. " This image shows an artist's impression of what a Martian colony would look like
WHAT IS "BFR" BY ELON MUSK?
The BFR (Big F *** ing Rocket) will complete all the missions and is smaller than the Musk ones announced in 2016.
The CEO of SpaceX said that the rocket would make its first trip to the red planet in 2022 , carrying only cargo, followed by a manned mission in 2024 and would claim that other SpaceX products would be "cannibalized". to pay it. .
The rocket would be partially reusable and capable of flying directly from Earth to Mars.
Once built, Musk believes the rocket could be used to travel on Earth, saying passengers could get anywhere within an hour.
Musk's mission may have received more impetus, thanks to the findings of the new Oxford University study, which concluded that humanity is probably alone in the universe.
In a document submitted to the Acts of the Royal Society this week, the researchers wr There is a substantial likelihood that there is no other intelligent life in our observable universe.
The experts titled their article "Dissolve Fermi's Paradox", the question that was first asked in the 1950s and that asked why we still did not do it. evidence view of extraterrestrial life.
The study uses a probability distribution to capture the most likely scenarios, instead of assigning a single value.
The authors found that the possibility for humanity to stand alone among intelligent civilizations in our galaxy is 53 percent to 99.6 percent, and in the observable universe it is 39 percent to 85 percent.
If all other parameters are configured in their most optimistic form, these values are 41 percent and 32 percent.
"We should not really be so surprised to see an empty galaxy," wrote the authors, Anders Sandberg, Eric Drexler and Toby Ord.
. The experts used the Drake equation to make their findings. Examine the different variables that would be relevant to intelligent life forms, including factors such as the stars formed and their planets and the average number of planets that can potentially sustain life
WHAT IS THE FERMI PARADOX?
Fermi's paradox asks why, given the estimated 200 to 400 billion stars and at least 100 billion planets in our galaxy, there have been no signs of extraterrestrial life.
The contradiction takes its name from its creator, the Italian physicist Enrico Fermi.
First raised the question in 1950.
Fermi believed it was too extraordinary that a single extraterrestrial signal or engineering project has not yet been detected in the universe, despite its immense immensity.
Fermi concluded that there must be a barrier that limits the emergence of intelligent, self-aware and technologically advanced civilizations that colonize space.
This barrier is sometimes called & # 39; Great filter & # 39;
. The Italian physicist Enrico Fermi devised the so-called Fermi paradox in the 1950s. Explore why there are no signs of alien life, despite the 100 billion planets in our galaxy
If the main obstacle preventing the colonization of other planets is not in our past, then The barrier that will stop humanity's prospects from reaching other worlds must be in our future, scientists have theorized.
Professor Brian Cox believes that the advances in science and engineering required by a civilization to begin to conquer the stars ultimately lead to their destruction.
He said: & # 39; One solution to Fermi's paradox is that it is not possible to manage a world that has the power to destroy itself and that needs global collaboration solutions to avoid that.
& # 39; It may be that the growth of science and engineering inevitably exceeds the development of political expertise, leading to disaster. "
Other possible explanations for Fermi's paradox include that no other intelligent species have emerged in the universe, there are intelligent alien species out there, but they lack the necessary technology to communicate with Earth.
Some believe that the distances between intelligent civilizations are too large to allow any kind of bidirectional communication.
If two worlds are separated by several thousand light years, it is possible that one or both civilizations will become extinct before a dialogue can be established.
] The so-called Zoo hypothesis states that intelligent extraterrestrial life is out there, but deliberately avoids any contact with life on Earth to allow its natural evolution.
They claim that their thinking is based on a famous equation known as the equation by Drake.
This seven-term equation examines the different variables that I would they are relevant to intelligent life forms, including factors such as the stars formed and their planets and the average number of planets that can potentially support life.
& # 39; The expectation that the universe is full of intelligent life is linked to models like Drake's equation & # 39; writes the authors in the document.
This suggests that even if the probability of intelligent life develops at a certain site is small, the huge multitude of possible sites should produce a large number of potentially observable civilizations.
"We show that this conflict arises from the use of equations similar to those of Drake, which assume implicitly certainty with respect to highly uncertain parameters."
The team says that their work & # 39; makes a big difference. & # 39;
& # 39; When the model is restructured to represent realistic distributions of uncertainty, we find a substantial probability that there is no other intelligent life in our observable universe and, therefore, it should not surprise us that we do not detect signs of it. .
The team says that their work "makes a big difference" to the existing theories about life elsewhere in the universe. However, researchers have not ruled out the existence of extraterrestrial life beyond Earth, and seekers like SETI make no sense (stock image)
& # 39; This result dissolves Fermi's paradox, and by doing so eliminates any need to invoke speculative mechanisms why civilizations would inevitably stop having observable effects on the universe. "
However, researchers told Universe Today that they had not ruled out extraterrestrial life, and searchers like SETI were meaningless.
& # 39; What we are not showing is that SETI does not make sense , quite the opposite, "said Dr. Sanberg.
& # 39; There is a tremendous level of uncertainty to reduce.
& # 39; The document shows that astrobiology and SETI can play an important role in reducing uncertainty about some of the parameters.
"An important conclusion we found is that the lack of intelligence observed does not lead us to conclude that intelligence does not last long: the stars do not predict our perdition!"
The full findings of the study can be read in the Arxiv prepress file for scientific articles that are pending peer review.

Looking for life in all the hard places – a guidebook
types of planets Kepler found/NAA
Okay, They’renot Out There. But maybe something is. Any form of extraterrestrial life could shed light on at least some questions.
In that spirit, we learn from ScienceDaily of a newly published guidebook, in th form of a seriesof papers based on finds here on Earth:
Some of the leading experts in the field, including a UC Riverside team of researchers, have written a major series of review papers on the past, present, and future of the search for life on other planets. Published in Astrobiology, the papers represent two years of work by the Nexus for Exoplanet Systems Science (NExSS), a NASA-coordinated research network dedicated to the study of planetary habitability, and by NASA’s Astrobiology Institute.
Scientists have identified more than 3,500 planets around other stars (called exoplanets) and many more will be discovered in the coming decades. Some of these are rocky, Earth-sized planets that are in the habitable zones of their stars, meaning it’s neither too hot nor too cold for liquid water — and possibly life — to exist.
The five papers will serve as a reference for scientists searching for signs of life, called biosignatures, in the data they collect from future telescope observations.
…
“We are using Earth to guide our search for life on other planets because it is the only known example we have,” said Timothy Lyons, a distinguished professor of biogeochemistry and director of the Alternative Earths Astrobiology Center. “But Earth actually offers us a great diversity of possibilities. Rather than being constrained to a study of present-day life, we use geological and geochemical analyses to examine the billions of years that life survived, evolved, and thrived on Earth under conditions that are very different than today’s, hence the concept of ‘alternative Earths.'”
Schwieterman’s review outlines the complexities of searching for life on planets that are too far away to visit, including phenomena called false positives and false negatives. “The search for life using biosignatures is not as simple as looking for a single molecule or compound. Atmospheric oxygen, for example, could be a sign of life, but there are many nonbiological ways that oxygen gas could be produced on an exoplanet. Conversely, it is possible that life could exist in the absence of oxygen gas, similar to early life on Earth or portions of the oceans today,” Schwieterman said. “This is one reason temporal biosignatures, which are based on dynamic phenomena such as atmospheric seasonality, might be more robust biosignatures in some circumstances.”Paper.

If this gets really interesting, maybe the appropriate answer to “Are They Out There?” is “Tell them we’ll call back as soon as possible.”
Physicist: It’s good news that aliens likely don’t exist. And a space entrepreneur’s surprising reaction…“Preserve the light of consciousness”? Hmmm. Musk doesn’t seem to agree with Darwinian philosopher Daniel Dennett that consciousness is an evolved illusion or with the panpsychists that everything is conscious.
En 1995, un incroyable événement véridique s’est produit dans l’Ouest de la Russie. Cette affaire, qui implique un OVNI, a soigneusement été dissimulée depuis. En effet, après la diffusion de la vidéo en octobre de la même année, celle-ci a soudainement disparu.
Aujourd’hui, il ne reste plus que trois images de ce prétendu atterrissage d’OVNI. Certains ufologues prétendent que les rares témoins ont probablement été manipulés afin qu’ils gardent le silence sur ce qui s’est passé.
Les images ont été diffusées par la télévision russe en octobre 1995 et montrent l’atterrissage d’un énorme engin spatial extraterrestre qui a eu lieu dans la banlieue d’Ostankino, à proximité de Moscou.
Dans les 3 séquences de photos, qui faisaient à l’origine partie d’une vidéo, vous pouvez voir 2 personnes, appartenant vraisemblablement à l’armée russe, qui observent de près l’atterrissage de l’engin extraterrestre.
Après de longues enquêtes, des ufologues, à la fois russes et européens, sont arrivés à la conclusion que la soucoupe volante avait atterri juste pour éviter les tirs de l’artillerie anti-aérienne russe.
Plus tard, de cet OVNI aurait émergé des êtres humanoïdes qui semblaient émettre leur propre lumière. Ils avaient des intentions « non-hostiles ». Mais leurs comportements a été mal interprétés par le personnel militaire soviétique, qui à son tour a répondu en tirant quelques coups de mitrailleuses.
En réponse à l’attaque soviétique, la coque de l’engin extraterrestre aurait émis des impulsions d’énergie qui auraient mis hors d’usage les armes de l’armée russe.
A partir de l’analyse effectuée sur la séquence d’images, le chercheur Carlo Clemente a indiqué que l’OVNI paraissait être enveloppé par un champ d’énergie. Il a estimé qu’il avait un diamètre d’environ 15-20 mètres.
Carlos Clemente a comparé les images prises à Ostankino avec l’affaire de Cotula (au Texas), où dans la nuit du 5 Juillet 2012, une caméra de surveillance d’un condominium privé situé dans la région d’Eagle Ford, avait enregistré l’atterrissage d’un autre OVNI.

UFO Festival 2018 in Roswell: When is the world’s biggest alien convention?
UFO Festival 2018 in Roswell, the world’s largest gathering of alien truthers and UFO hunters, kicks off next month. Here is everything you need to know.
The event organisers said: “The City of Roswell invites UFO enthusiasts and sceptics alike to join in the celebration of one of the most debated incidents in history.
“If it isn't on your bucket list it should be, and once you attend you may find, like many of the festival visitors, it becomes one our your annual vacation plans.”
Roswell has become popular for UFO hunters after ab alleged crash-landing of an extraterrestrial flying saucer on a ranch 30 miles north of Roswell sometime in early July 1947.
The Roswell Army Air Field (RAAF) officially claimed the downed object was a weather balloon but the incident sparked the imaginations of UFO truthers for generations to come.

UFO Festival 2018
From July 6 to July 8 this year, the UFO Festival 2018 will host a series of expert panels and speeches from some of the most prolific voices in the UFO truther community.
The organisers said the featured entertainment covers everything from music, food and family activities to alien autopsies and “so much more”.
Kathy Lay, Executive Director for MainStreet Roswell, said: “You have people all over the city. There will be some out at the mall at Galactic Con.
“Some will be at the UFO museum doing the seminars and workshops.

He’s written and contributed to around a dozen academic books, and countless lengthy reports. His greatest professional love is research; having the view that there aren’t that many jobs in which you get paid for having fun, but that’s what research is like.
So why UFOs of all things? The answer is a long one, but it boils down to this: Like almost everyone else, James gets hooked by a good mystery, and UFOs are perhaps the greatest mystery of all; one which is in desperate need of being properly investigated. He lives with his wife in Yorkshire, England, where rabbits are the only alien menace. Or so he believes! UFOs may or may not be of this Earth and time, but the huge job of trying to nail them down is incredibly fascinating.
EPAEen foto van de Ryugu-asteroïde die werd genomen op 24 juni 2018.
WETENSCHAPNa een reis van drieëneenhalf jaar heeft de Japanse ruimtesonde Hayabusa 2 deze week haar bestemming bereikt: de diamantvormige planetoïde Ryugu. Tijdens de achttien maanden durende missie zal het toestel het oppervlak van Ryugu verkennen en bodemstalen nemen. Die moeten tegen 2020 weer de aarde bereiken.
Het Japanse ruimteagentschap JAXA publiceerde vorige week al korrelige foto’s die werden genomen vanaf een afstand van 300 kilometer waaruit blijkt dat Ryugu de vorm heeft van een tol. Recentere foto’s die werden genomen vanaf zo’n 30 kilometer hoog tonen dat het oppervlak bezaaid ligt met grote keien.
Sinds vandaag bevindt het ruimtetuig zich in een baan rond de planetoïde. De afstand tussen Hayabusa 2 en Ryugu bedraagt momenteel zo’n 20 kilometer, aldus JAXA in een mededeling.
Bodemstudie
De sonde zal gedurende anderhalf jaar de 900 meter brede planetoïde, die zich op ongeveer 290 miljoen kilometer van de aarde bevindt, bestuderen. Tijdens die periode zal ze meerdere kleinere sondes naar het oppervlak van Ryugu sturen, waaronder drie kleine rovers die de asteroïde moeten gaan verkennen.
“Aanvankelijk zullen we het oppervlak erg grondig bestuderen. Vervolgens zullen we beslissen waar we gaan landen”, aldus Makoto Yoshikawa, die de missie van Hayabusa 2 leidt. Daartoe zal een koperen projectiel, de “impactor”, zich losmaken van de sonde en zich naar de vaste grond begeven. “We hebben een impactor die een kleine krater zal maken op het oppervlak van Ryugu. Mogelijk in het voorjaar van volgend jaar zullen we proberen een krater te maken... Vervolgens zal onze ruimtesonde de krater proberen te bereiken om materiaal onder de oppervlakte te verzamelen, maar dit is een erg grote uitdaging”, aldus Yoshikawa.
REUTERSDe lancering van de Hayabusa 2 op 3 december 2014.
Planetoïde klasse C
Planetoïden zijn in essentie de bouwmaterialen die overbleven na de vorming van ons zonnestelsel, zo’n 4,6 miljard jaar geleden.
Ryugu is een planetoïde van klasse C. “We weten niet veel over C-klasse-planetoïden”, zegt NASA-wetenschapper Lucy McFadden, die erg verheugd is over de expeditie. “Ze hebben vermoedelijk een samenstelling die vergelijkbaar is met die van het vroege zonnestelsel.” De missie van Hayabusa 2, de enige ruimtesonde die ooit zo dicht bij een planetoïde van dit type kwam, moet uitmaken of het oppervlak van Ryugu voornamelijk uit koolstof bestaat, zoals vaak wordt aangenomen, of uit kleine metalen deeltjes, zoals magnetiet.
De ingezamelde data moet wetenschappers helpen begrijpen hoe de planeten die rond onze zon cirkelen tot stand kwamen, hoe de oceanen op aarde ontstonden en wat de aanleiding vormde voor het leven op aarde. Veel wetenschappers denken immers dat de oceanen op onze planeet het gevolg zijn van een bombardement door waterrijke asteroïden of kometen.
Eind 2019 zal Hayabusa 2 naar de aarde terugkeren, een reis die ongeveer een jaar in beslag zal nemen.
Kopie van eerste Hayabusa
De Hayabusa 2 is een bijna exacte kopie van de eerste Hayabusa die in 2003 gelanceerd werd en de asteroïde Itokawa bereikte in 2005. Na een reeks tegenslagen, keerde de sonde in 2010 terug naar de aarde met een kleine hoeveelheid materiaal van de asteroïde. Momenteel is Osiris-Rex, een Amerikaanse sonde, op weg naar de planetoïde 101955 Bennu om er stalen te verzamelen. In augustus zou de sonde haar bestemming moeten bereiken.
WETENSCHAP Vliegtuigbouwer Boeing heeft deze week een hypersonisch passagiersvliegtuig gepresenteerd op de American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Conference in Atlanta. Het gaat voorlopig nog om een concept, maar Boeing hoopt een dergelijk vliegtuig over twintig à dertig jaar te kunnen bouwen.
Ingenieurs van Boeing werken aan verschillende concepten die de ontwikkeling van een hypersonisch toestel mogelijk maakt zodra klanten daar behoefte aan hebben, zo meldt Boeing zelf. Het concept voor een passagiersvliegtuig kan volgens Boeing op zowel commercieel als militair gebied toegepast worden.
De Concorde, het voorlopig snelste passagiersvliegtuig ooit, haalde een topsnelheid van 2.179 kilometer per uur, dat is zo’n twee keer de snelheid van het geluid. Maar het concept van Boeing zou tot wel vijf keer de snelheid van het geluid halen, meer dan 6.000 kilometer per uur. Met die snelheid vlieg je in een uurtje van Londen naar New York.
Since its original cinematic release in 1977, Steven Spielberg’s sci-fi masterpiece Close Encounters of the Third Kind has been the subject of fervent speculation in the UFO conspiracy community. Many UFO buffs are convinced that the movie was produced as part of an official acclimation program in anticipation of an alien “disclosure” event. This speculation can be traced back to the production of the movie itself. On 23 July 1976, after a hard day’s shoot, around forty of the cast and crew, including stars Richard Dreyfuss and Melinda Dillon, gathered in the sticky night air of Mobile, Alabama, to hear a lecture delivered by the movie’s appointed advisor on UFOs, Professor J. Allen Hynek (the famed astronomer had been flown in for a brief cameo in the closing scenes). Shortly after Hynek’s lecture, actor Bob Balaban (who plays the character of translator David Laughlin), began to discuss with his colleagues an intriguing rumour that had been circulating during the production—“a rumour,” wrote Balaban in his production diary, “that the film is part of the necessary training that the human race must go through in order to accept an actual landing, and is being secretly sponsored by a government UFO agency.”
In 2014, I had the opportunity to interview Close Encountersproduction designer, Joe Alves. I asked him if ever he had heard any such rumours during the shoot, and if there was any substance to them. “There were a lot of rumours,” he told me, ambiguously, before changing the subject.
Back in 1977, even Spielberg himself seemed to be dropping hints: “I wouldn’t put it past this government that a cosmic Watergate has been underway for the last 25 years,” the director remarked during a Close Encounters promotional interview, “eventually they might want to tell us something about what they’ve discovered over the decades.” During the same interview, the director spoke with relish of “rumours” that President Carter was due to make “some unsettling disclosures” about UFOs later that year. Needless to say, no such disclosures were forthcoming.
Particularly curious is that the Carter Presidential Library contains no record of the film-loving President ever having viewed Close Encounters while in office. However, in a 1977 Canadian TV interview conducted directly after the movie’s theatrical release, Spielberg said matter-of-factly that Carter had viewed the movie “Last Saturday.” Spielberg remarked, “We haven’t heard the direct feedback,” but added, “We hear he [Carter] liked it quite a bit.” The following March, The Phoenix Gazette cited Close Encounters as “Jimmy Carter’s favorite movie,” noting that “The President has seen the movie many times.” This is not the only discrepancy over the official record concerning Carter and Spielberg. Officially, Spielberg never set foot in the Carter White House and had never met the President, and yet a solitary photocopy of a photograph discovered in the Carter Presidential Library proves that the two men did meet. The photo shows Carter and Spielberg engaged in conversation and is signed: “To Steven Spielberg, [from] Jimmy Carter.” An accompanying White House stationary note signed by White House Social Secretary Gretchen Poston and addressed to Spielberg reads: “The President thought you would enjoy receiving the enclosed photograph.”
This apparent secrecy almost certainly resulted from a desire among Carter’s staff to keep the Administration from being further publicly associated with flying saucers. Famously, Carter had his own UFO sighting in 1969 in Leary, Georgia, witnessing a bright white round object that approached his position before stopping and then receding into the distance. Carter was with twelve other people at the time, all of whom witnessed the strange phenomenon. Needless to say, a UFO-spotting President viewing the ultimate UFO movie at the White House and having get-togethers with its alien-obsessed director would have been a PR nightmare.
By far the most outlandish of the conspiracy theories surrounding Close Encounters relates to Project Serpo—an alleged human/alien exchange program between US military personnel and a race of extraterrestrials from the Zeta Reticuli star system. The story goes that, in July of 1965, twelve astronauts were taken to the planet Serpo aboard an alien spaceship and remained there for thirteen years. In exchange, the aliens left one of their own in the custody of the US government. This story didn’t emerge until 2005 in the form of a string of anonymous emails that were sent to selected UFO researchers, including Project Camelot/Avalon’s Bill Ryan, who created a website dedicated to the “leaks.”
The Serpo story lead some in the conspiracy community to speculate that Close Encounters was partly inspired by the alleged alien-human exchange program of 1965, which assumes that Spielberg himself was privy to inside information on the UFO issue. In the movie’s final scenes, a taller alien (designed by effects expert Carlo Rambaldi) is seen to exit the mothership and communicate with the character of Claude Lacombe via a series of hand gestures. Immediately before this we see twelve scientists clad in jumpsuits preparing to board the mothership and take permanent leave of planet Earth. Roy Neary joins the group as its thirteenth member.
It is important to note that the Serpo story, which has not a shred of evidence to support it, did not emerge until 2005, twenty-eight years after the release of Close Encounters. It’s probably safe to assume then that former inspired the latter, rather than vice versa.
Whether or not there is any truth to the conspiracy theories surrounding Close Encounters, Spielberg’s movie remains hugely significant for the fact that it played a central role in Hollywood’s mid-to-late-1970s economic revival—its $338 million worldwide box-office gross forced crusty studio executives to recognize America’s vast and largely neglected youth market and to adapt their output accordingly. Two other alien-themed movies of the period would also play a key role in this industrial paradigm shift: Star Wars (1977) and Superman(1978). Together, these three films about the wonders of the universe acted as adrenalin, shot straight into the heart of a dying industry (though many critics would argue, perhaps justifiably, that this adrenalin acted as poison in the long-term, stifling creativity and individuality in Hollywood). Spielberg’s film also reignited public curiosity about UFOs as an enduring enigma, and its release closely coincided with the thirtieth anniversary of the Roswell Incident. Just one year later, Jesse Marcel would spill the beans on his first-hand experiences of that event, opening the floodgates for hundreds more closely-corresponding Roswell testimonies.
With Vietnam and Watergate still fresh in the mind, Close Encounters came as a reassuring hug for America towards the end of a decade of disillusionment, and Spielberg’s movie would redefine Hollywood’s working relationship with aliens for much of the 1980s, resulting in movies such as E.T.: The Extraterrestrial, Starman, Batteries Not Included, and The Abyss, to name but a few. Thanks to Close Encounters, what for so many decades had come only to conquer, could now come in peace.
