Kan een afbeelding zijn van hond

Dit is ons nieuw hondje Kira, een kruising van een waterhond en een Podenko. Ze is sinds 7 februari 2024 bij ons en druk bezig ons hart te veroveren. Het is een lief, aanhankelijk hondje, dat zich op een week snel aan ons heeft aangepast. Ze is heel vinnig en nieuwsgierig, een heel ander hondje dan Noleke.

This is our new dog Kira, a cross between a water dog and a Podenko. She has been with us since February 7, 2024 and is busy winning our hearts. She is a sweet, affectionate dog who quickly adapted to us within a week. She is very quick and curious, a very different dog than Noleke.

    UFO's of UAP'S in België en de rest van de wereld
    In België had je vooral BUFON of het Belgisch UFO-Netwerk, dat zich met UFO's bezighoudt. BEZOEK DUS ZEKER VOOR ALLE OBJECTIEVE INFORMATIE , enkel nog beschikbaar via Facebook en deze blog. Verder heb je ook het Belgisch-Ufo-meldpunt en Caelestia, die prachtig, doch ZEER kritisch werk leveren, ja soms zelfs héél sceptisch... Voor Nederland kan je de mooie site www.ufowijzer.nl bezoeken van Paul Harmans. Een mooie site met veel informatie en artikels. MUFON of het Mutual UFO Network Inc is een Amerikaanse UFO-vereniging met afdelingen in alle USA-staten en diverse landen. MUFON's mission is the analytical and scientific investigation of the UFO- Phenomenon for the benefit of humanity... Je kan ook hun site bekijken onder www.mufon.com. Ze geven een maandelijks tijdschrift uit, namelijk The MUFON UFO-Journal. Since 02/01/2020 is Pieter ex-president (=voorzitter) of BUFON, but also ex-National Director MUFON / Flanders and the Netherlands. We work together with the French MUFON Reseau MUFON/EUROP. ER IS EEN NIEUWE GROEPERING DIE ZICH BUFON NOEMT, MAAR DIE HEBBEN NIETS MET ONZE GROEP TE MAKEN. DEZE COLLEGA'S GEBRUIKEN DE NAAM BUFON VOOR HUN SITE... Ik wens hen veel succes met de verdere uitbouw van hun groep. Zij kunnen de naam BUFON wel geregistreerd hebben, maar het rijke verleden van BUFON kunnen ze niet wegnemen...

    10 plekken in de Verenigde Staten die mysterieuzer zijn dan Area 51. Hier moet je geweest zijn

    10 plekken in de Verenigde Staten die mysterieuzer zijn dan Area 51. Hier moet je geweest zijn

    In de Verenigde Staten bevinden zich talloze vreemde plekken. Zo zijn er stenen die uit zichzelf bewegen in de woestijn en is er een eiland waar de bevolking plotsklaps is verdwenen.

    Er bevinden zich dingen op Amerikaanse bodem die zelfs de meest hoogopgeleide wetenschappers niet kunnen verklaren.

    Dit zijn 10 plaatsen in de VS die mysterieuzer zijn dan Area 51.

    1. Onderwater-Stonehenge, Michiganmeer

    Je bent vast bekend met Stonehenge, een prehistorisch monument in Engeland. Een professor zei in 2007 dat hij een soortgelijk monument in het Michiganmeer had ontdekt.

    Volgens WhereTraveler is het monument cirkelvormig en bevat één van de stenen een rotstekening van een mastodont.

    De enige verklaring die wetenschappers tot dusver hebben is dat de stenen er zijn geplaatst toen het meer droog stond, tijdens de laatste ijstijd.

    2. Skinwalker Ranch, Utah

    De inheemse Ute-stam blijft ver uit de buurt van de UFO Ranch, beter bekend als Skinwalker Ranch, nabij Ballard in de staat Utah.

    Volgens de Utes zijn Skinwalkers wraaklustige wezens die rondwaren op en rond de ranch.

    In de jaren negentig werd de Skinwalker Ranch bewoond door een familie die de mythes rond de ranch wilde ontkrachten.

    Al na twee jaar ontvluchtte de familie de ranch vanwege onverklaarbare gevallen van veeverminking, graancirkels en zwevende objecten, schrijft Thought Catalog.

    3. Horseshoe Canyon, Utah

    In de Horshoe Canyon zijn 2000 jaar oude rotstekeningen te vinden. Anasazi-indianen hebben er tekeningen achtergelaten die silhouetten van vreemde wezens laten zien.

    Volgens sommigen zijn het tekeningen van aliens, demonen of goden uit de onderwereld, aldus het Natural History Museum in Utah.

    4. Coral Castle, Florida

    Edward Leedskalnin uit Litouwen zou in de jaren twintig op 26-jarige leeftijd naar Florida zijn verkast. Het enige probleem was dat hij geen huis, geen geld en geen hulp had.

    Door de jaren heen bouwde hij in zijn eentje een gigantisch landgoed, zonder gereedschap. Sommige stenen waar Coral Castle (foto) uit bestaat wegen tot wel 27 ton.

    De stenen passen perfect in elkaar en bevatten geen cement. Hoe heeft Edward dit voor elkaar gespeeld?

    5. Medicijnwiel Bighorn, Wyoming

    In Lovell in Wyoming hebben indianen een steencirkel gemaakt die werd gebruikt om astronomische gebeurtenissen te voorspellen, schrijft Atlas Obscura.

    De 24 meter grote steencirkel lijkt op een wiel en bevindt zich bovenop Medicine Mountain, die het grootste deel van het jaar bedekt is met sneeuw.

    Het bouwwerk wordt tot op de dag van vandaag gebruikt door de indianen en anderen om de zomerzonnewende te voorspellen.

    6. Oregon Vortex, Oregon

    De Oregon Vortex trekt veel toeristen omdat het daar lijkt alsof je in enkele seconden tijd groter en kleiner kunt worden.

    Wetenschappers denken dat deze hotspot een soort draaikolk is bestaande uit magnetische energie, die ervoor zorgt dat het lijkt alsof je groter wordt als je richting het noorden loopt en kleiner als je naar het zuiden loopt, aldus Oregon Live.

    7. Georgia Guidestones, Georgia

    In Elberton County in Georgia staan de enorme Georgia Guidestones, die ook doen denken aan Stonehenge.

    Het zijn enorme granieten zuilen die fungeren als een astronomische kalender.

    Het mysterieuze stenen monument, dat gebouwd is in 1979, bevat 10 richtlijnen om de aarde en samenleving opnieuw in te richten in het geval van een apocalyps.

    8. Roswell, New Mexico

    In juli 1947 zou bij het plaatsje Roswell in New Mexico een UFO zijn gecrasht. Die zomer schreef de Roswell Daily Record dat er een vliegende schotel was geborgen en werd bewaard op een ranch.

    Ook de Roswell Army Air Field sprak in een persverklaring van een ‘vliegende schijf’, schreef The Week.

    Later werd het verhaal aangepast en beweerde men dat er een weerballon was gecrasht. Volgens complottheoretici is dit één van de voorbeelden dat de Amerikaanse overheid buitenaardse activiteit in de doofpot stopt.

    9. Mystery Hill, New Hampshire

    Er is een plek in Amerika die ook wel ‘Amerika’s Stonehenge’ wordt genoemd. Op Mystery Hill in New Hampshire staan stenen muren die 4000 jaar oud zouden zijn.

    Sommigen claimen dat ze gebouwd zijn door de indianen, terwijl anderen zeggen dat ze zijn achtergelaten door een groep Ierse monniken.

    Niemand weet hoe de stenen daar zijn gekomen.

    10. Sedona-vortexen, Arizona

    In Sedona zouden zich plekken bevinden waar de elektromagnetische energieën van de aarde elkaar kruisen. Deze plekken worden ook wel vortexen of leylijnen genoemd.

    Er zijn verschillende plekken aangewezen als hotspots, waarvan Airport Mesa, Cathedral Rock, Bell Rock en Boynton Canyon de populairste zijn.

    Gedacht wordt dat het plekken zijn waar intense energie de aarde binnenkomt en verlaat, bericht Visit Sedona.

    Latest Unexplained Megacryometeor Narrowly Misses Illinois Man

    Over the last few years there have been a spate of reports of unexplained balls of ice falling from cloudless skies, several of which have impacted dangerously close to homes and unsuspecting individuals on the ground. While the prevailing theory seems to be that these mysterious icy meteorites form on the exterior of aircraft overhead, cases have been reported in areas well outside of flight paths – not to mention the fact that reports of these icy deathtraps pre-date the advent of aviation.

    A Spanish megacryometeor from 2007.

    A Spanish megacryometeor from 2007.

    In the meteorological world, these unexplained balls of ice are known as megacryometeors and have been documented by only a few scientific studies. However, due their rarity, unpredictability, and ephemeral nature, evidence is scant. This week, another incident of a falling megacryometeor adds to the mystery surrounding this icy apparitions and nearly killed an Illinois man. What is causing these fearsome frozen phenomena to fall?

    The latest incident occurred in Liberty Township, a small town in rural western Illinois. Dennis Nover was walking his dogs around 6:00 p.m. under clear skies when he heard a “whooshing” sound disturb the air nearby. Immediately after, Nover heard and felt a thud so powerful it reportedly shook his neighbor’s house. “It sounded like a whoosh. I just thought it was the wind in the trees. If that thing had hit me, it would have taken my head off,” Nover told the Chesterton Tribune, adding that his dogs started barking at the object after impact.

    Some stones are better left unturned.

    Dogs know high strangeness when they see it.

    Nover inspected the debris and found a basketball-sized chunk of clear ice lodged in a two-feet-deep crater in his yard. Nover took a sample of the meteor to the Department of Meteorology at nearby Valparaiso University, but researchers there have yet to find any conclusive indicators of where the ice came from. Had it been from an aircraft’s wastewater system, it would have been polluted and or blue from disinfectant; this sample is perfectly clear.

    This case adds to the growing body of evidence surrounding these mysterious megacryometeors. While some sort of unknown meteorological phenomenon might be to blame, there aren’t any currently known processes by which atmospheric ice could accumulate in such large masses. The best guess is that these icy projectiles are falling from the exterior of aircraft, but that doesn’t account for the incidents recorded before commercial aviation nor can it explain the recent spike in these mysterious occurrences.

    Yeah, that would have hurt.

    A similar close call was caught on CCTV in London earlier this year.

    That is, unless there are more planes flying at high altitude overhead that we don’t know about. With so much unexplained activity going on in the skies or in space lately, there’s no telling what could be causing these megacryometeors.

    What’s going on? NASA’s Chandra and Hubble Space Telescopes went into Safe Mode

    Remember: At first Sunspot Solar Observatory went down, followed up with the temporarily shut down of the live cams of 6 more observatories.


    The Soyuz mission launch failure this week, next the Hubble Telescope goes offline and now the Candra x-ray telescope goes offline.

    Besides NASA already has lost contact with the Opportunity Mars Rover and they have a big issue with a data transmission with the Curiosity Mars Rover mainly due to a massive sandstorm on the planet Mars.

    According to a news report NASA said that the Hubble Space Telescope has entered safe mode after a gyroscope failure, the agency's Chandra X-ray Observatory has now gone into a similar protective state.

    NASA announced the issue Friday, though it happened on Wednesday. When Chandra enters safe mode, it swaps over to hardware backup units, orients its solar panels to gather maximum sunlight and points its mirrors away from the sun.

    Instruments go into safe mode to protect themselves during hardware or software failures or glitches, leaving only essential survival systems operating. The space agency is now investigating the cause of the safe-mode transition.

    Chandra is designed to make X-ray observations of distant space features, including quasars, supernovas and black holes. It's part of NASA's Great Observatories program, which includes Hubble and the Spitzer Space Telescope.


    It is highly unusual that both NASA’s craft are going into safe mode within days and with so many incidents happened the past month it can no longer be a coincidence.

    There is something serious going on in space and it seems they do not want us to see.

    Former Blink-182 Vocalist Tom DeLonge On A Mission To Prove UFOs Are Real

    One year ago this month, To The Stars Academy of Arts & Science launched. The public benefit corporation was founded by Tom DeLonge, the former co-lead vocalist of blink-182 and the current lead guitarist and vocalist of Angels & Airwaves. The corporation is divided into three divisions: aerospace, entertainment, and science. Delonge originally became interested in all things otherworldly while doing research for a series of graphic novels. During a four-hour discussion with several former government officials at the launch of the corporation, he confirmed that UFOs are real.

    No, that does not mean that aliens will suddenly invade our ears and switch bodies. An “unidentified flying object” is a vague term; it could mean any number of things, not all of them alien. Given the technology we have, from heat-sensing to enhanced images to metal detection, it’s amazing that anything is unidentifiable anymore.

    It Doesn’t Get Much More Official Than This Guy

    Luis Elizondo worked for the Department of Defense. He is the former director of programs to investigate unidentified aerial threats and headed the Advanced Aerospace Threats Program. The AATP formed in 2007 with a $22 million budget. The budget may sound big, but in context, it was small enough to go unnoticed by the public and unacknowledged by the government.

    The AATP only lasted for five years when funding ran out. Elements of the program remain classified and many speculate that the program may still exist in some capacity. This is basically the plot to Men in Black and we’re obsessed.

    “We may not be alone,” Elizondo said publicly this time last year.

    Who Killed UFO Sightings?

    The number of UFO sightings drastically rose, then declined, over the past 28 years. The National UFO Reporting Center reported only 315 UFO sightings in 1990, but by 1998, the number spiked to 2,000 UFO sightings. The number went up to 4,000 for 2006 and peaked at 8,670 in 2014. It has since gone down drastically, to only 1,329 at the end of June 2018.

    There’s a lot to unpack here. What made the UFO sightings go up in the ’90s? Popular films like E.T. and the Alien franchise? Aging Baby Boomers? (Those who report UFOs are more likely to be elderly.) What’s behind the decline? Millennials killing everything?

    Perhaps the advent of cell phones can explain the decline in UFO sightings. According to the Pew Research Center, 90 percent of American adults owned cell phones in 2014.  Only 55 percent owned smartphones. Compare that to 2018, when 95 percent of Americans own cellphones and over 75 percent own smartphones. Are we too engrossed with our screens to look up at the sky? Or are UFOs impossible to see due to poor air quality?

    So UFOs Are Real…Now What?

    Now that Tom DeLonge is helping legitimize UFOs, perhaps more research will follow. To The Stars Academy has already released some videos of UFOs. They claim it’s only the beginning. Who knows how much is already known, or how much out there will be forever unknown. These efforts will continue to seek out the truth, whatever it is, but also to discover new technologies, materials, and energy sources.

    The universe is huge. This is comforting and also terrifying. Even if no further information is found, the fact that UFOs have been documented is major news. Up until now, the U.S. government has denied all accounts. Going forward, we’re prepared for a number of scenarios: Independence DayTo Serve ManMars Attacks!, or even Star Trek. Whatever happens, keep looking up.  You don’t want to miss it because your nose is buried in your phone.

    This UFO made a remarkable appearance over Mongolia this week.  The governments of the region will probably claim its a rocket or fireworks or swamp gas, but we its a UFO. Watch the video and see how this amazing craft deliberately makes a trail that glows so that the humans below will see it. This is how alien are doing disclosure, little by little till we are no longer surprised or scared.

    Eyewitness states: 

    At around 19:00 on October 11th, UFOs appeared in the sky of Hohhot, Inner Mongolia. Many onlookers took out their mobile phones and called them "ufo." It is reported that the object appeared in the sky in Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Shanxi and other places during the same period, and it has appeared for the second time.

    Inside Story of “Project Blue Book” –The UFO Era & Birth of the Extraterrestrial Hypothesis

    Are we alone in the universe? A new TV series confronts the question that still fascinates humans decades after the end of “Project Blue Book,” during which the U.S. Air Force documented and scrutinized 12,000 UFO sightings from 1952 to 1969, led by J. Allen Hynek, a former astrophysicist at The Ohio State University.

    Is the world’s fascination with the possibility of UFOs more a religion or a natural intuitive sense that life is “out there” based on current scientific research and recent planet-search discoveries? Carl Sagan believed that “the interest in unidentified flying objects derives, perhaps, not so much from scientific curiosity as from unfulfilled religious needs.”

    Set against a suspenseful undercurrent of political intrigue — the project comes to life in a new dramatic television History Channel series, which shares some of the long-buried secrets of this mysterious initiative.

    At a New York Comic Con panel on Oct. 6, actors and creators of the History Channel’s “Project Blue Book” introduced the audience to the story of federal agents hunting UFOs and the manipulation of the truth happening behind the scenes. Based on declassified files in the federal archive — including 700 cases of UFO-related incidents that remain unsolved.

    Each of the perplexing and unsettling UFO sightings that appears in the series is based on an actual event described in the recently declassified government records, executive producer and writer Sean Jablonski told the panel audience. “Every case you see — that really happened,” Jablonski explained.

    Game of Thrones star, Irish actor Aiden Gillen is playing one of the more polarizing scientists in the murky history of UFO research, cast in the lead role of Hynek, created and written on spec by David O’Leary and produced by Robert Zemeckis (Carl Sagan’s Contact) chronicles the true top secret U.S. Air Force-sponsored investigations into UFO-related phenomena in the 1950s and ’60s.

    No one could have foreseen the extent to which the idea of UFOs would pervade popular culture prior to the publication in 1897 of H.G. Wells War of the Worlds (see video below) and Kurd Lasswitz’s On Two Planets –both the vanguard of an enormous number of treatments of the alien theme in science fiction.

    The modern UFO era and the birth of the extraterrestrial hypothesis began on June 24,1947, when Kenneth Arnold, flying his private plane near Mount Rainier in Washington, reported nine disk-shaped objects flying in formation at speeds he estimated to be over 1,000 miles per hour.

    Arnold, a respected businessman and deputy U.S. marshal, was taken seriously and his description of the objects as flying “like a saucer if you skipped it across the water” led to newspapers to coin the term “flying saucer.”

    The alien hypothesis first officially emerged in 1948 with the Air Force “Project Sign,” which concluded that UFOs were of extraterrestrial origin. The report was later declassified and burned by General Hoyt Vandenburg.

    If UFOs exist, how do they traverse the universe? According to conventional wisdom, one can only travel through time in a linear fashion at no faster than the speed of light. At that rate, it would take millions of years to traverse the universe, and who has time for that? If there’s a way to manipulate space and time curvatures, then we have all the time we need.

    World renowned experts from physicist Sir Martin Rees of Cambridge University to astrobiologist Davies have asked that if we were to encounter alien technology far superior to our own, would we even realize what it was. A technology a million or more years in advance of ours would appear miraculous.

    In fact, Davies suggests in Eerie Silence, that advanced technology might not even be made of matter. That it might have no fixed size or shape; have no well-defined boundaries. Is dynamical on all scales of space and time. Or, conversely, does not appear to do anything at all that we can discern. Does not consist of discrete, separate things; but rather it is a system, or a subtle higher-level correlation of things.

    Are matter and information, Davies asks, all there is? Five hundred years ago, Davies writes, ” the very concept of a device manipulating information, or software, would have been incomprehensible. Might there be a still higher level, as yet outside all human experience, that organizes electrons? If so, this “third level” would never be manifest through observations made at the informational level, still less at the matter level.

    We should be open to the distinct possibility that advanced alien technology a billion years old may operate at the third, or perhaps even a fourth or fifth level -all of which are totally incomprehensible to the human mind at our current state of evolution.

    Fast forward to 2017, The Blue Book series follows Hynek, recruited by the U.S. Air Force to spearhead this clandestine operation that researched thousands of cases, many of which were never solved. Each episode will draw from the actual files, blending UFO theories with authentic historical events from one of the most mysterious eras in United States history. “Blue Book is inspired by the true covert events of an era in American history shrouded in mystery,” said Paul Buccieri, President, A+E Studios and A+E Networks Portfolio Group

    Hynek served as scientific advisor to UFO studies undertaken by the U.S. Air Force under three consecutive projects: Project Sign , Project Grudge, and Project Blue Book. He later developed the “Close Encounter” classification system.

    Project Blue Book was the third and longest-lived of three consecutive UFO investigations conducted by the Air Force, officially lasting from 1952 through 1969. It was preceded by Project Sign (1947–1949) and Project Grudge (1949–1952), and Hynek, already established as a brilliant astronomer working the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics during its formative years, was recruited as a scientific advisor on all three.

    What makes Hynek so interesting is that his outlook gradually from being a skeptic about the existence and origin of UFOs to eventually becoming convinced that the steady stream of sightings and unexplained phenomena could not be explained away as things like weather balloons, satellites or swamp gas.

    By the time Blue Book came into existence, Hynek — while careful not to say definitively that UFOs did exist and were of extra-terrestrial origin — was arguing that the field required serious study, a position that put him at odds with many fellow scientists and the U.S. military.

    Hynek grew increasingly disenchanted with Blue Book during his tenure on the investigation, criticizing the Air Force’s research methods and general indifference to the subject. Blue Book was shut down in 1969 having officially determined that UFOs were not a threat to national security and were not of extra-terrestrial origin — a conclusion that Hynek hinted was already pre-ordained.

    Is Voyager 2 nearing interstellar space?

    This graphic shows the position of the Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 probes relative to the heliosphere, a protective bubble created by the sun that extends well past the orbit of Pluto. Voyager 1 crossed the heliopause, or the edge of the heliosphere, in 2012. Voyager 2 is still in the heliosheath, or the outermost part of the heliosphere.

    Image via NASA/JPL-Caltech.

    NASA’s Voyager 2 probe, launched in 1977, is on a journey toward interstellar space. NASA says the spacecraft has nw detected an increase in cosmic rays – fast-moving particles that originate outside our solar system – which suggests that the spacecraft might be close to crossing into interstellar space.

    Voyager 1

    Voyager 2

    Voyager 2 is a little less than 11 billion miles (about 17.7 billion km) from Earth, or more than 118 times the distance from Earth to the sun. Since 2007 the probe has been traveling through the outermost layer of the heliosphere – the vast bubble around the sun and the planets dominated by solar material and magnetic fields. Voyager scientists have been watching for the spacecraft to reach the outer boundary of the heliosphere, the beginning of interstellar space as the place where the sun’s constant flow of material and magnetic field stop affecting its surroundings.

    Once Voyager 2 exits the heliosphere, it will become the second human-made object, after Voyager 1, to enter interstellar space.

    Since late August 2018, the instruments on Voyager 2 have measured about a five percent increase in the rate of cosmic rays hitting the spacecraft compared to early August.

    Cosmic rays are fast-moving particles that originate outside the solar system. Some of these cosmic rays are blocked by the heliosphere, so mission planners expect that Voyager 2 will measure an increase in the rate of cosmic rays as it approaches and crosses the boundary of the heliosphere.

    In May 2012, Voyager 1 experienced an increase in the rate of cosmic rays similar to what Voyager 2 is now detecting. That was about three months before Voyager 1 crossed the heliopause and entered interstellar space.

    However, Voyager team members note that the increase in cosmic rays is not a definitive sign that the probe is about to cross the heliopause. Voyager 2 is in a different location in the heliosheath – the outer region of the heliosphere – than Voyager 1 had been, and possible differences in these locations means Voyager 2 may experience a different exit timeline than Voyager 1.

    According to a NASA statement:

    The fact that Voyager 2 may be approaching the heliopause six years after Voyager 1 is also relevant, because the heliopause moves inward and outward during the sun’s 11-year activity cycle. Solar activity refers to emissions from the sun, including solar flares and eruptions of material called coronal mass ejections. During the 11-year solar cycle, the sun reaches both a maximum and a minimum level of activity.

    Voyager Project Scientist Ed Stone said in a statement:

    We’re seeing a change in the environment around Voyager 2, there’s no doubt about that. We’re going to learn a lot in the coming months, but we still don’t know when we’ll reach the heliopause. We’re not there yet — that’s one thing I can say with confidence.

    Bottom line: The Voyager 2 spacecraft has detected an increase in cosmic rays, which suggest it’s close to becoming only the 2nd human-made object, after Voyager 1, to enter interstellar space.

    Des disques vieux de 10 000 ans découverts dans des grottes chinoises montrent le site d’un crash d’OVNI

    Des EXTRATERRESTRES ont régné sur le monde dans des civilisations antiques et une collection de disques vieux de 10 000 ans le prouvent, selon plusieurs affirmations déroutantes.

    Des séquences vidéo bizarres montrent des pierres découvertes par l’archéologue Chi Pu Tei en 1937 alors qu’il tentait de trouver refuge dans les montagnes Kunlun-Kette en Chine.

    Les membres de l’équipe sont entrés dans les grottes et ont découvert des inscriptions sur les murs.

    Au fond de la grotte, ils ont découvert plusieurs tombes, alignées les unes derrière les autres, contenant d’étranges squelettes d’apparence surprenante, chacun ne dépassant pas 1 mètre de haut.

    Plus de 700 disques inhabituels, recouverts d’œuvres d’art inexplicables, ont été enterrés à côté d’eux.

    Et aujourd’hui, des images vidéo sont apparues pour tenter d’expliquer l’histoire.

    La chaîne YouTube ‘We Are If’ a publié un clip affirmant que les disques dépeignent le lieu du crash d’un vaisseau spatial extraterrestre il y a 12 000 ans.

    Et les pierres ont apparemment été abandonnées 2 000 ans plus tard.

    Le narrateur poursuit en expliquant que les étranges petites figures trouvées à leurs côtés pourraient être des descendants du peuple Dropa Many.

    La tribu Dropa aurait été un groupe de plusieurs centaines de nains ne mesurant pas plus de 1m20.

    Ils prétendent aussi que les tunnels suggèrent qu’une communauté extraterrestre vivait sous terre.

    Et cela peut expliquer les extraterrestres qui se trouvent à l’intérieur des disques.

    L’histoire a été téléversée sur YouTube hier, où elle a déjà accumulé des centaines de hits.

    Je parie que ces disques contiennent beaucoup plus d’informations qui n’ont pas encore été découvertes, peut-on lire dans un commentaire.

    Un autre a ajouté : C’est fascinant.

    Et un troisième a dit : On se pose vraiment des questions sur les extraterrestres.”

    BDSM, Sex Robots, and the Three Laws of Robotics

    Robots and artificial intelligence are rapidly spreading to more and more areas of our daily lives in a sometimes uneasy alliance. Of all these developments, though, the one which most strongly hints at the strange-but-inevitable future in which humans and robots share the Earth as equals is the rise of sex robots. I guess it was inevitable that as soon as we were able to make walking, talking robots, people would begin finding ways to do naughty things them. Our reproductive drives are among the strongest in the human experience, and taking the human element out of the equation somewhat simplifies things.

    What would it take to get you to kiss a robot?

    Emphasis on “somewhat.”

    Of course, there are dangers and downsides to sexbots. Like any technology, they can malfunction or be hacked, and sex robots also open the possibility that people will use them for acts which are illegal or dangerous with real humans. Nevertheless, many groups including the Church of Satan believe that sex robots will be a positive development for humankind, offering the “freedom of choice to satisfy your most secret desires with no-one to be bothered” or harmed by whatever you happen to do once your clothes come off. Or stay on, you do you.

    QUERY: WAS THE INTERACTION EQUALLY ACCEPTABLE FOR BOTH PARTIES?

    While ethicists, roboticists, and psychologists debate the merits and negatives of sex with robots, interesting questions have arisen. For one: if you asked your sex robot to whip you, choke you, pour hot wax on you, or engage in other acts of BDSM play (bondage, discipline, sadism, or masochism), would the robots be able to comply? Should they be able to comply? After all, chief among Isaac Asimov’s Three Laws of Robotics is that the law “a robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.” The second law states that “a robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.” Put these in the context of BDSM sexbots, and it’s easy to see how complicated things could get.

    While Asimov’s laws aren’t necessarily followed by everyone in the robotics industry, they have for decades served as a sort of baseline for how we conceptualize human-robot interactions.  Thus, these laws can serve as food for thought for how we might shape laws concerning all sorts of robotic companions, including sex robots. This week, Gizmodo surveyed a group of lawyers, ethicists, computer scientists, and philosophers whether or not (hypothetical) BDSM sex robots would violate Isaac Asimov’s Three Laws of Robotics, and the answers, as you might imagine, were mixed and thought-provoking.

    Most, however, seemed to center on the fact that “harm” and the types of pain inflicted by BDSM practices aren’t quite the same thing and that harm inflicted by a BDSM robot would be presumably welcomed by the human user. Should robots be able to whip us if we ask them to? I mean, why not? With a few bucks’ worth of parts from the local hardware store and some duct tape, you could rig up your electric drill to do the same thing. Why not give the drill a human face and natural language processing to make the whole thing more exciting?

    While these types of questions might seem silly, commercial sex robots are already available for sale and recent developments suggest it will only be a few users before full-on robot brothels start popping up around the world. We’ll soon have to grapple with questions of BDSM robots, suicide-by-robot, and other ethical gray areas which will appear as robots rise up to take their place alongside humankind.

    Buckle up. Things are only going to get weirder.

    Filmmakers Mined the Dangerous Sci-Fi Worlds of 'Alien' and 'Dune' for 'Prospect'

    The directors and star of Prospect gather for a press panel at New York Comic Con 2018.

    NEW YORK — The biggest sci-fi films from the last few years are big, slick affairs. "Guardians of the Galaxy" (2014), "Star Wars: The Last Jedi" (2017), "Star Trek Beyond" (2016), "Ready Player One" (2018), even "Interstellar" (2014) — there's no denying that modern sci-fi has a clean, big-budget feel that's light-years removed from its scrappy, gritty, '70s revival roots.

    However, that's not a problem for "Prospect": an indie darling sci-fi film, inspired by the rough, dirty, dangerous worlds of classics like "Alien" (1979), "Dune" (1984) and even the original "Star Wars" (1977). The production won the prestigious Adam Yauch Hörnblowér Award at South by Southwest 2018, and is scheduled for a wide release in Regal cinemas on Nov. 2. At New York Comic Con 2018, the film's co-directors, Zeek Earl and Chris Caldwell, joined star Sophie Thatcher to discuss the movie in a private press room.

    The setup is deceptively simple: Damon (Jay Duplass) and Cee (Sophie Thatcher) are a father-and-daughter prospecting team in the far future. They travel to a planet with a toxic atmosphere to mine rare stones, where they encounter Ezra (Pedro Pascal), a potentially dangerous competitor. The twist: Because of the poisonous dust in the air, every character has to spend nearly the entire film in a bulky environmental suit. [Biggest Space Movies to Watch in 2018]

    The overall feeling is a little claustrophobic, a little uncomfortable and more than a little reminiscent of high-intensity classics like "Planet of the Apes" (1968), "THX 1138" (1971) or even "Mad Max" (1979). In order to achieve this feeling, the panelists said, the most important thing was to employ practical effects.

    "It's inspired by classic sci-fi films, like 'Star Wars' and 'Alien,' that aren't in front of a green screen," Caldwell said. "Aesthetically, a lot of it is based on the classics: 'Star Wars,' 'Alien,' 'Blade Runner.' But we are very excited and hopeful to be participating in this more intellectual science-fiction. One of the things that we were really striving to do with the film was to capture this feeling where you don't hold the viewer's hand."

    Color palette also played a big role in making the world feel lived-in and worn-down. Grays, browns and blacks were the order of the day, mimicking the aesthetic of early space exploration.

    "We looked at a lot of the original Hasselblad photography from the early Apollo missions to try to get that texture," Caldwell said. "It's a very digital movie, but we wanted to pull in some of that retro texture. We also had 'the blue rule.' For the most part, only Sophie's suit was allowed to have a strong blue presence. We tried to take that out of the rest of the film."

    Thatcher was impressed with the film's story right from the get-go. In fact, it's what inspired her to sign on.

    "Reading the script, that's what drew me in," she said. "[Cee] starts off as more timid. As she grows and is forced to be with Ezra, she starts standing up for herself and speaking for herself."

    Pascal — who, unfortunately, could not attend NYCC this year — felt the same way.

    "[Pascal] really connected with the script, really liked the language," Earl said. "He loved that challenge to take on.

    "That guy is so stupid talented," Earl added. "He surprised us on a continual basis. He's hilarious. He's getting cast in all this big action stuff, but at any point, if he wants to do comedy, he'd have the entire crew cracking up."

    Duplass, who made his bones directing weird films like "Baghead" (2008), "Cyrus" (2010) and "Jeff, Who Lives at Home" (2011), wound up pulling double-duty as both an actor and a seasoned indie film on-set consultant.

    "Jay Duplass is such a pro," Earl said, relating a story of how Duplass stopped him in the middle of a difficult shoot and insisted that a dehydrated Earl get some more water before continuing. "He was a mentor on set. He connected with the DIY spirit of the whole thing."

    Most indie films don't have a ton of money to work with, and Prospect was no exception. In order to create a credible sci-fi world, the trick was to start writing with a small budget in mind — not to imagine something grand, then cut the production down to the bone.

    "We had to prove to financiers that this wasn't just a stupid idea," Earl said. "Just like we rewrote the script four times, we rewrote the budget 10 times." Even the movie's signature toxic dust didn't cost much to make; Earl shot it in his own dusty basement, and edited it into almost every other scene in the film.

    "This movie is built to be inexpensive," he continued. "It's not like we were taking some story and figuring out how to do it cheap. We were thinking while we were writing about what the implications are on set. It was designed to be that way," Earl said.

    "I would encourage people who are trying to get their first feature of the ground to be thinking financially as well, to be strategic in your development," Caldwell said. "Because everything is interconnected. The way that we got a shot to [make a movie] like this was that it was inexpensive."

    The movie's filmic inspirations are easy enough to guess, but Earl and Caldwell also drew on their favorite books to develop the world of "Prospect."

    "My favorite growing up was 'Dune,'" Earl said.

    "I've been digging into 'Foundation' recently, just because it's relevant to some of the ideas we're trying to play with," Caldwell said.

    As for the 17-year-old Thatcher, she said that when she was cast, she wasn't familiar with the sci-fi inspirations that delighted her co-directors. But they managed to bond over other films that feature bold women in otherworldly situations.

    "The first time I met Zeek and Chris, we drew connections through Miyazaki movies with young female protagonists. I grew up on those films. That was my inspiration for [Cee]." She also cited Carey Mulligan and Michelle Williams, whose acting styles she hopes to emulate.

    One journalist asked Thatcher if it was possible that someday in the future, someone might cosplay Cee at an event like NYCC — and if so, what she would think of it.

    Her response was both straightforward and hopeful: "I will be flattered!"

    On October 11, 1973 two Pascagoula residents reported being abducted and examined by extraterrestrials. It was an allegation that sparked a media frenzy, focusing national attention onto the Mississippi Gulf Coast and locals' eyes skyward.

    I launched a new investigation into the 1973 Coast UFO abduction story. Do you believe?

    It’s been 45 years since Charlie Hickson and Calvin Parker reported being abducted by aliens while fishing at the former Shaupeter Shipyard in Pascagoula. Since then Calvin Parker, pictured, has kept a low-profile. That is until now. He has recently published a book about his experience.

    IS DIT DE REDEN DAT VOGELS DOOD NEERVALLEN?

    Enkele dagen geleden schreven wij een artikel over de vele vogels die zomaar dood uit de lucht vallen en waarbij het lijkt alsof ze tegen een muur zijn gevlogen. 

    Dat klinkt natuurlijk een beetje gek: een muur in de lucht of is er toch iets wat dit vreemde fenomeen kan verklaren? 



    Wij zijn gezegend met vele hele intelligente lezers die stuk voor stuk niet geprogrammeerd zijn door de propagandamachines en die omdat ze open staan voor dingen, vaak in staat zijn om complexe puzzels op te lossen. 

    Zoals het raadsel van de dode vogels, waarover wij enkele dagen geleden schreven. 

    Het volgende ontvingen wij van een lezer (dank!): 

    Sherlock Holmes zei ooit: 
    "When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth" Ofwel, streep alles door wat géén optie is en je houdt over wat de waarheid is, ookal is die onwaarschijnlijk. 

    Dus wat gebeurt er NIET met die vogels, dat we weten. 
    -ze vliegen niet tegen een toren of mast aan 
    -ze vliegen niet tegen een vliegtuig aan 
    -ze zijn niet collectief ziek (waardoor ze op exact hetzelfde moment vallen) 

    Wat we wel weten is: 

    -het overkomt alle soorten vogels 

    -het lijkt te gaan om groepen vogels die op hetzelfde moment iets raken 
    -het verschijnsel is zeer lokaal 
    -ze vliegen tegen iets aan wat onzichtbaar is. 
    -er zijn soms inwendige verbrandingseffecten, wat wijst op een sterk elektrisch veld. 
    Mijn conclusie daarom is: 

    Ze vliegen tegen een gecloakt ruimteschip aan, wat een sterk elektrisch veld nodig heeft om te blijven hangen. De vogels raken daartoe eerst het elektrische veld van een schip, daarna wellicht ook nog de romp. 

    Ik denk eigenlijk dat het veld alleen genoeg is om elektrisch gekookt te worden. Wellicht gaat het om een veld van een miljoen Watt of meer, wat op de grond de bekende 'Close encouters' effecten kan veroorzaken bij apparaten. 

    Onwaarschijnlijk? 

    Ja, maar wat is er vandaag de dag nou nog raar. Het vogelfenomeen koppel ik aan het gegeven dat ook steeds vaker vliegtuigen met iets onzichtbaars in botsing komen. 

    Tot zover de lezer. 

    Dat klopt inderdaad. Er zijn de laatste jaren ook opvallend veel meldingen van vliegtuigen die op grote hoogte met iets in botsing komen. Vaak veel te hoog om een vogelaanvaring of iets dergelijks te kunnen zijn. 

    Het verschijnsel doet zich voor van Amerika tot China.

    xxx

    Maar, als dat een mogelijke verklaring is voor de dode vogels, hoe zit het dan bijvoorbeeld met de massale vissensterfte? 

    Iemand had daarover het volgende idee (dank!): 

    UFO's zijn ook extreem aanwezig....... onder water! En daar zou ook best eens dit magnetische veld voor problemen kunnen zorgen en dan een volgende stap...... het zou ook wel eens de oorzaak kunnen zijn van de desoriëntatie van allerlei zeedieren die vervolgens stranden. 

    Inderdaad, want wat wij nogal eens geneigd zijn om te vergeten is dat er ook onderwater grote UFO activiteit plaatsvindt en er waarschijnlijk ook diverse onderwaterbases zijn van waaruit zij opereren. 

    Een verhaal dat al naar buiten kwam via Bill Cooper: 

    Milton William Cooper werd ooit omschreven door Bill Clinton als: "De meest gevaarlijke man in Amerika". Dat was ook de reden dat hij uiteindelijk werd vermoord, omdat hij ondermeer bleef hameren op de betrokkenheid van de Amerikaanse regering bij de gebeurtenissen op 11 september dat jaar. 

    Cooper groeide op in een luchtmachtfamilie en daardoor bracht hij zijn jeugd door op allerlei verschillende plaatsen over de hele wereld. Bill ging later ook zelf in het leger, eerst bij de luchtmacht en later bij de marine. Hij kwam terug uit Vietnam als een onderscheiden veteraan, deed daarna verschillende dingen zoals het besturen van een kleine universiteit, hij opende een kunstgallerij en hield zich bezig met schrijven. 

    Zijn meest bekende boek is "Behold a Pale Horse", wat een gedetailleerde blik achter de schermen werpt van geheime genootschappen alsmede overheden die contact hebben met buitenaardsen. 

    Gedurende zijn tijd bij de marine, maakte hij een aantal dingen mee die voorgoed zijn leven zouden veranderen, zoals het volgende: 

    Hij was een erg avontuurlijke en een beetje gekke, nog jonge man en dacht dat het wel spannend zou zijn om werkzaam te zijn op een onderzeeër, waarvoor hij zich dan ook vrijwillig aanmeldde. Tijdens één van de oefeningen waren ze op weg van Portland/Seattle naar Pearl Harbor en had hij dienst op de uitkijk, waar hij zijn levensveranderende ontdekking deed met wat hij zag. Plotseling zag hij een schotel-achtig object vanuit de zee omhoog komen (ter grote van een vliegdekschip), die om zijn as draaide en meteen tussen de wolken verdween. Omdat wat hij zag gebeuren zich op ongeveer 2 zeemijl afstand van hem afspeelde, leek het langzaam te gaan, maar in feite ging het zeer snel omdat het uit het water kwam, om z`n as draaide en direct uit zicht was. 


    Hij melde het voorval dat hij iets gezien had bij zijn meerdere, waarop deze ook op dek kwam kijken. En warempel een paar minuten later komt datzelfde DING terug uit de lucht met volle snelheid, en verdween weer in zee zonder ook maar een spetter/plons te veroorzaken. Het was net of de zee zich opende waardoor het object zonder iets te raken erin kon vliegen. U moet zich voorstellen dat wat hij gezien had, zo groot was als een vliegdekschip en zoiets kan NOOIT in zee terechtkomen zonder ook maar een plons.... althans niet in de wereld zoals wij die kennen. Het ritueel herhaalde zich meerdere keren waarvan beide mannen ooggetuige waren. 

    In juni dit jaar is er opnieuw een rapport uitgelekt waarin inderdaad wordt bevestigd dat UFO’s of AVV’s zoals ze ook wel worden genoemd, net zo makkelijk onderwater bewegen als daar boven. AVV staat voor anomalous aerial verhicle, wat zoveel betekent als “afwijkend vliegend object”.


    xxx

    Zou dit de verklaring kunnen zijn voor de vele dode vogels en vissen? Een verhoogde UFO activiteit op en rondom de aarde, misschien in verband met de komende heftige periode waar deze planeet doorheen zal gaan?

    LEES HIER HET EERSTE ARTIKEL!

    ALSOF ZE TEGEN EEN ONZICHTBARE MUUR ZIJN GEVLOGEN ( VIDEO )

    Sinds een aantal jaren kennen we het fenomeen van vogels die spontaan dood neervallen vanuit de lucht. 

    Nog steeds doet dit verschijnsel zich voor en de situatie begint alarmerend te worden, want verklaringen zijn er niet en het lijkt alsof deze dieren tegen een onzichtbare muur zijn gevlogen. 


    Iets waar in de mainstream media weinig of geen aandacht aan wordt geschonken is het fenomeen van dode dieren dat zich overal op onze planeet voor doet. Het is een verschijnsel dat al een aantal jaren bezig is en er lijkt maar geen einde aan te komen.

    Iemand die veel ziet en hoort, niet in het minst dankzij zijn talrijke abonnees, is Tyler van het Youtube kanaal Secureteam. 

    In de onderstaande video vraagt Tyler zich lichtelijk wanhopig af wat er in 's hemelsnaam aan de hand is met/op onze wereld en dan met name de situatie van de vele dode vogels en ook andere dieren. 

    Zoals hij zegt zijn er de afgelopen jaren miljarden dieren om het leven gekomen en niemand heeft eigenlijk daarvoor een duidelijke reden kunnen vinden. Of als ze die wel hebben, dan wordt die zeker niet met het publiek gedeeld. 

    Het blijft een mysterieuze zaak met die vogels die zomaar spontaan dood uit de lucht lijken te vallen en soms met honderden tegelijk op een bepaalde locatie neer komen. Het gebeurt niet in een bepaald gebied, maar eigenlijk over de hele wereld en je hebt zelfs mensen die het dode vogels op het dak horen regenen. 

    Tyler weet te vertellen dat de vogels getraumatiseerd zijn en dat dit niet komt doordat ze op de grond zijn gevallen, maar wel omdat het lijkt alsof ze tegen een onzichtbare muur zijn gevlogen. Zo vliegen ze rond en zo opeens is daar iets dat ze niet zien en waar ze toch tegenaan klappen. 

    En keer op keer komen er zogenaamde experts die een onderzoek in zullen stellen met evenveel niet bevredigende antwoorden omtrent de oorzaak van dit alles. Dit is ook weer niet zo vreemd, want ze weten het gewoon niet.

    Het fenomeen dode vogels is ook niet beperkt tot een bepaald soort vogel; het zijn werkelijk allemaal totaal verschillende exemplaren.

    Om een indruk te krijgen waar we over praten, volgt hierna een lijst met gebeurtenissen betreffende dode dieren van de afgelopen maand.

    De makers van de lijst zeggen dat deze niet volledig is vanwege tijdgebrek.

    Tyler heeft nog meer alarmerende berichten over de stand van het wild in de wereld. Zo schijnt het dat over slechts twee jaar tweederde van alle in het wild levende dieren en insecten verdwenen zullen zijn. 

    Dit zijn meer dan schokkende berichten, want dat betekent dat we letterlijk leven op een stervende planeet. 

    Iets veroorzaakt dit alles. Is het de mens en de roekeloze manier waarop er met de aarde wordt omgesprongen of is het toch iets anders

    Wie het antwoord weet, kan het ons laten weten.

    Weird UFO emitting bright light filmed by Beijing Residents

    A mysterious UFO emitting a white light was captured on film by stunned onlookers across China on Thursday evening, in what appears to be the result of some unknown high-altitude craft activity over Beijing.


    Similar sightings were reported in north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and northwestern Shaanxi Province.

    According to RT some speculated that it may have been the failed Soyuz mission carrying Roscosmos and NASA astronauts to the ISS, but that took place at 4:40pm China Standard Time Thursday, and the UFO sightings weren't reported until around 7pm local time.

    One expert said it resulted from exhaust gas released by a man-made aircraft flying at an altitude high enough to reflect sunbeams while others suggest it was missile test launched from Taiyuan.

    Below a video of the captivating spiral effect left in the wake of the unknown craft.

    Spherical robot with 32 legs that 'moves like an amoeba' could be used to explore planets or in disaster response missions

    • Mochibot can control all of its legs independently to move swiftly 
    • It allows for the most stable and controllable form of locomotion in a robot 
    • It resembles the tensegrity robots that Nasa is building for planet exploration
    • It is based on a shape called a rhombic triacontahedron - a polyhedron with 32 vertices and 30 faces made of rhombuses (or rhombi)

    Scientists have built an amoeba-like robot with 32 individually controlled legs in a bid to find the perfect combination of stability and control.

    The theory for the unusual robot comes from previous experience with robot building that found a robot with more legs is often easier to control. 

    The robot is called Mochibot and is based on a shape called a rhombic triacontahedron -  a polyhedron with 32 vertices and 30 faces made of rhombuses (or rhombi).

    Scroll down for video 

    The robot Mochibot (pictured) and is based on a shape called a rhombic triacontahedron - a polyhedron with 32 vertices and 30 faces made of rhombuses (or rhombi)

    The robot Mochibot (pictured) and is based on a shape called a rhombic triacontahedron - a polyhedron with 32 vertices and 30 faces made of rhombuses (or rhombi)

    The ideal shape for an robot that can travel in any direction at any moment is a sphere. 

    However, this shape is flawed because they rely on only a single point of contact with the floor, making the machine unstable. 

    Mochibot is based on a sphere but the team made some improvements to make it easier to control. 

    Its deformability allows it to adapt to the terrain and how much ground contact it has.  

    The innovative design moves by retracting the arms inthe direction of motion and simultaneously extending arms on the other side. 

    To stop it flattens itself out parallel to the ground, as per IEEE Spectrum

    The deformability comes from the individually telescoping legs as each one is made of three sliding rails (which behave like linear actuators). 

    This allows them to extend to just over half a meter in length or contract to less than a quarter meter. 

    In practice, these extreme differences are not practical and the maximum diameter of Mochibot is about a meter (40 inches).

    It weighs 10 kilograms (22 pounds) including the batteries, and has plenty of room inside for a payload. 

    A variety of cameras, sensors, or sampling devices could be integrated into the arms. 

    It’s somewhat similar to one of the tensegrity robots that Nasa has been working on for a while but Mochibot isn’t squishy in the same way that a tensegrity robot is.

    The Nasa robot can survive being thrown from a roof, the Mochibot is not quite this durable. 

    Tensegrity robots locomote by flopping over themselves in a series of motions so complex that it’s taken machine-learning algorithms to figure out how to get them to move efficiently.

    This makes them unfathomably complicated and very difficult to steer in a particular direction.  

    Mochibot’s big advantage over a tensegrity robot is that it can move smoothly and continuously in any direction you like by altering its shape. 

    Nasa said in a report on its tensegrity robots: 'Nasa desires lightweight, deployable and reliable devices.

    'Thus, the long term goal of this work is to develop actively controlled tensegrity structures and devices, which can be deployed from a small volume and used in a variety of applications including limbs used for grappling and manipulating the environment or used as a stabilizing and balancing limb during extreme terrain access.'

    The plethora of legs give the urchin-like robot an advantage over wheeled exploration robots as well as all directions can be optimal for movement, rather than just forward and backward. 

    The designers also suggest that Mochibot is better at dealing with deformable terrain like sand or loose rock, because its method of rolling locomotion is much less traction dependent.  

    For applications like planetary exploration or disaster response, Mochibot has the potential to be a versatile platform. 

    Mochibot has the potential to be a versatile platform. It’s highly mobile, very redundant, and looks like it could manage a hefty science payload

    It’s highly mobile, very redundant, and looks like it could manage a hefty science payload. 

    The next step is to experiment with different kinds of terrain, making sure that Mochibot can roll itself up and down slopes and over rocks and gullies without any problems.     

    Robots are an integral part of life and they continue to cease the attention of the public with the ever-widening guises and uses they come in. 

    Boston dynamic's robo-dog went viral when a video surfaced of the machine climbing stais and opening doors. 

    Since then the company has developed a humanoid robot  called Atlas. 

    According to the company, Atlas is a 'high mobility, humanoid robot designed to negotiate outdoor, rough terrain'.

    Atlas measures 1.5m (4.9ft) tall and weighs 75kg (11.8st).

    WHAT IS BOSTON DYNAMICS' ATLAS HUMANOID ROBOT?

    Atlas the most human-like robot in Boston Dynamic's line-up. 

    It was first unveiled to the public on 11 July 11 2013.

    According to the company, Atlas is a 'high mobility, humanoid robot designed to negotiate outdoor, rough terrain'.

    Atlas measures 1.5m (4.9ft) tall and weighs 75kg (11.8st).

    The humanoid walks on two legs, leaving its arms free to lift, carry, and manipulate objects in its environment.

    Atlas is able to hold its balance when it is jostled or pushed by an external force. Should it fall over, the humanoid robot is capable of getting up again on its own

    Stereo vision, range sensing and other sensors allow Atlas to walk across rough terrain and keep its balance.

    'In extremely challenging terrain, Atlas is strong and coordinated enough to climb using hands and feet, to pick its way through congested spaces,' Boston Dynamics claims.

    Atlas is able to hold its balance when it is jostled or pushed.

    If the humanoid robot should fall over, it can get up on its own.

    Atlas is designed to help emergency services in search and rescue operations.

    The robot will be used to shut-off valves, opening doors and operate powered equipment in environments where human rescuers could not survive.

    The US Department of Defence said it has no interest in using Atlas in warfare.

    Atlas is capable of —  

    • Standing up after falling over
    • Running
    • Balancing on a narrow beam
    • Cleaning, including vacuuming and sweeping
    • Karate kick
    • Throwing a paper aeroplane

    Project Blue Book starring Game of Thrones’ Aidan Gillen (Entertainment Week)

    It’s one of the more mysterious episodes in American military history: the creation of a top-secret task force to investigate UFOs.

    But did Project Blue Book really seek to uncover the truth – or cover it up?

    The project marked the dawn of the ‘UFO age’, and with 700 cases still ‘unsolved’, it’s still something that obsesses UFO fans today.

    A new History Channel drama starring Aiden Gillen explores the history of the project – and how it spawned the first ‘ufologist’

    Executive producer and writer David O’Leary told a panel at Comic-Con this week, ‘On the subject of UFOs, part of the story is the cover-up, the lying, the misinformation campaign to control public perception.’

    In one chilling encounter, Air Force pilots encountered radar blips which seemed to ‘disappear’ every time their planes got near in 1952.

    In Project Blue Book, researchers led by a former astronomy professor, J Allen Hynek (played by Gillen) analysed 12,618 UFO sightings.

    While the research officially concluded that there were no aliens, Hynek became a passionate believer in UFOs, who wrote books on the subject and founded the Center for UFO Studies.

    Nigel Watson, author of the UFO Investigations Manual, said, ‘The USAF set up Project Blue Book on 25 March 1952. It had a policy of demystifying UFO reports and its powers to investigate cases were severely reduced.

    ‘Blue Book became the public face for official UFO investigations, but it mainly operated as a repository of information and an outlet for debunking cases.

    ‘After collecting 12,618 sighting reports, of which 701 remained unsolved, it ended on 30 January 1970, based on the view that: “Careful consideration of the record as it is available to us leads us to conclude that further extensive study of UFOs probably cannot be justified in the expectation that science will be advanced thereby.’It’s worth noting, however, that the Project Blue Book archives are now freely available online – and they don’t contain any evidence of crashed spaceships or alien autopsies.

    Watson, says, ‘At least 10,000 UFO reports collected by the US, Project Blue Book, have been put online and many other governments have released their UFO files.
