UFO news: Shock claim BLACK TRIANGLE spacecraft recorded over Ohio is ‘proof of aliens'
UFO news: Shock claim BLACK TRIANGLE spacecraft recorded over Ohio is ‘proof of aliens'
A BIZARRE triangular UFO photographed over Perrysville, Ohio, is genuine proof of alien spacecraft entering Earth’s atmosphere, conspiracy theorists have claimed.
He said: “The UFO seems to almost have one, two, three tail-like appendages hanging from it behind it.
“It has three pointy ends – it’s not just two – this doesn’t look like a stealth bomber or a stealth fighter here.
“This is really, really strange and there is a huge divide in between.
“This UFO, whatever it is, is nothing like I’ve ever seen before.”

Based on his calculations, Mr Waring claimed the UFO could be bigger than a Boeing 747 jet airliner – an aircraft with a wingspan of nearly 200ft (60m).
This UFO, whatever it is, is nothing like I’ve ever seen before
Scott C Waring, UFO SIGHTINGS DAILY
The supposed alien spacecraft was photographed on September 3, 2018, when it passed over a construction site in the US village of Perrysville, Ohio.
Some of Mr Waring’s supporters were stunned by the UFO photographs, claiming it is definitely the real deal.
YouTube user Xavier Perkins said: “Weird UFO. The sightings are increasing worldwide. We are definitely not alone.”
Mr Waring also noticed the black triangle appears to cast a shadow onto the clouds below, seemingly confirming his extraterrestrial theory.
He said: “The UFO is also throwing a shadow onto the cloud below, which is 100 percent amazing, because this means the UFO was freaking huge.
“I’m talking several times bigger than a 747.
“This UFO must have been cloaked because something this big would normally stand out like a sore thumb.

“So I say the digital eye caught this because it is more precise of an instrument than our flawed eye which misses out on a lot of the spectrum.”
The person who originally took the UFO photo, noted the black triangle made no jet engine sound or other noise when it passed overhead.
However, this is not the first 'black triangle UFO' to be spotted over the US and is one of many annual sightings.
A declassified UK Ministry of Defence report on so-called Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) concluded most sightings can be explained by natural causes or misrepresentation.
UFO news: There is no evidence to suggest triangle spacecrafts are real alien technology
(Image: UFO SIGHTINGS DAILY)
The secret document revealed to the public in 2006 reads: “Considerable evidence exists to support the thesis that the events are almost certainly attributable to physical, electrical and magnetic phenomena in the atmosphere, mesosphere and ionosphere.
“They appear to originate due to more than one set of weather and electrically-charged conditions and are observed so infrequently as to make to unique to the majority observers.
“There seems to be a strong possibility that at least some of the events may be triggered by meteor-reentry, the meteors neither burning up completely nor impacting as meteorites but forming buoyant plasmas.”
Another popular conspiracy theory stipulates black triangle UFOs could be top-secret US Military aircraft, dubbed TR-3B.
Pieces Of A “UFO” Fell From The Sky And Landed In Remote Cambodian Village
Pieces Of A “UFO” Fell From The Sky And Landed In Remote Cambodian Village
Residents of a small, remote Cambodian village were woken up to quite an unusual – and somewhat dangerous – surprise last week when pieces of metal were seen raining from the sky. At the time of publication, officials are still stumped as to what could be the cause, leading some to believe extraterrestrial forces could be behind the incident.
In a statement sent to IFLScience, residents of Preah Vihear Province said they heard a loud sound around 6am local time. They ran outside to find dozens of pieces of aluminum weighing more than 40 kilograms (88 pounds) striking homes and causing damage across a 10-kilometer (6.2-mile) radius. Fortunately, nobody was injured.
''I heard a big noise in the morning. I was shocked and thought something bad had happened," said villager Sok Nol. “When I went to look there was one big piece in a field and other smaller pieces around. We thought an airplane had crashed but there was no big engine.”
Residents collected the wreckage and reported it to police, who were unable to identify where it came from. Yin Chamnan, police chief of Preah Vihear, confirmed that rubble had been recovered in the village, continuing that regional police have not been able to pinpoint where the pieces came from. The case will now be handed over to a team of specialists.
Altogether, 17 pieces of aluminum and rubber reportedly fell from the sky. Viral Press
''We have found more than 17 fallen fragments of aluminum and rubber. But, we are continuing the search and are collecting further information from the people at the scene,” he said.
It has some thinking something out-of-this-world could be responsible.
''Now I think that it has come from space and landed in our village. It's confusing because nobody knows what it is,” said Nol.
Chamnan, however, has a different explanation: ''Maybe these fragments are parts of a drone that someone flew. The parts were not relatively big,” he said.
Villages say they awoke to the sounds of metal dropping around 6 a.m. local time on October 25. Viral Press
It's estimated the fragments weighed around 40 kilograms (88 pounds).

The fallen fragments damaged buildings over a 10-kilometer (6.2-mile) radius. Fortunately, nobody was injured.
Sightings of potential alien activity have been investigated by Mecca Bingo who have analysed all UFO sightings in the UK since 2007.
According to their data, there have been four sightings in Hull in the April, May, June and July of 2013, but nothing has been reported since.
A witness in Hull at the time said: "Whilst sat in the hot tub on a Saturday night, my husband and I noticed a dark triangle shape craft glide past us that was 100% silent.
"The silence of this aircraft grabbed me most as there were no lights.
"There were lines running down either side of the triangle, and my husband said the end had scallop edges."

Astronaut Major Gordon Cooper Saw UFOs
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.
Major Cooper was a firm believer in UFOs. Ten years earlier, in 1951 he had sighted a UFO 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.”
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 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.”read also: “Pioneering astronauts sees UFO“, Area 51 and Gordon Cooper’s confiscated Camera“, and “No Mercury UFO”
Filer’s Files ‘38
Wilbert Smith Tells How to Communicate With Aliens
In 1961 interview with television station CJOH, the former head of the official Canadian Government UFO investigations Wilbur Smith stated, “In 1950 I was attending a rather slow-moving broadcasting conference in Washington D.C. and found that the U.S. government had a highly classified project set up to study flying saucers. He was the Official Director of the Canadian Government’s UFO Investigation in 1950 for many years. He was one of the foremost communications experts of the day and worked as the chief radio engineer for the Canadian government. He was in charge of monitoring 50,000 radio frequencies in Canada, and ran the Top Secret “Radio Ottawa” where spies would radio in to intelligence services.
Have you communicated with aliens?
Smiths answer (A) “Some of the communications have been on a face-to-face basis but I have not been so honored myself. Some of the communications have been by ordinary radio, and I have received a few messages by this means. But by far the majority of the communications are by what we call Tensor Beam transmission, which uses a type of radio with which we are only vaguely familiar. However, the mental images of the person wishing to transmit are picked up electrically amplified and modulated into a tensor beam, which is directed to the person to whom the transmission is addressed, and within whose brain the mental images are recreated. The transmissions are therefore very precise, and independent of language. I have had some experience with these transmissions myself and can say that they are like nothing within the conventional experiences of earth people.”
They appear to be from another planet using flying saucers and the investigation of one saucer that fell in the US indicated it operated on some hitherto unknown magnetic principles. . I am convinced that they are just as real and tangible as most things we deal with in our everyday lives. I made enquires through the Canadian Embassy concerning the saucers: This is the most highly classified subject in the United State, rating higher than the H bomb. Flying saucers exist but their operandi is unknown but consecrated effort is being made by a small group headed by Dr. Vannevar Bush..
Thousands of people have seen them, many under circumstances, which virtually preclude misinterpretation, many of these sightings have been coordinated with radar fixes. Photographs have been taken and physical evidence has been accumulated.
Q: Have you, you actually handled any material believed to be from a flying saucer? A: If by that you mean material substance showing evidence of fabrication through intelligent effort and not originating on this planet, I have.
I extracted this Question posed to Wilbert Smith from your Filer’s Files 38 post. The Tensor Beam article I found on the Internet. Being a “Novice” ham operator, it piqued my interest. This all ties into the stated “fact” that back in 1950, communications took place face-to-face as well as via radio using this Tensor Beam technology, even back then. I thought you might be interested in seeing this blurb. Thanks to Joe Foster
Tensor Beam to Communicate With Aliens
Wilbur Smith’s archive reports, The information leading up to the coil’s construction came from “topside” (aliens), and therefore I feel I have absolutely no property rights to it, and I would be most pleased if data could be published to an extent which would preclude future patentability..
We were told about a system which uses a radio transmitter as an energy source but has a special antenna converter, which radiates doughnut shaped waves, which are not time functions. Following are the construction instructions. One ferrite core, material with the highest permeability and dielectric constant, about 8 inches to a foot long, and about 1 inch in diameter. About 20 feet of plastic insulated #14 electric house wire. Starting at the center of the wire and at one end of the core, wind on the wire as closely as possible, with the first turn under and then over, so that the winding will be exactly symmetrical. It will start at one end of the core and finish at the other end and will resemble a solenoid with a bifilar winding. It is important that the winding be exactly symmetrical.
The size of the coil is not critical, nor is the winding beyond the fact that it must be symmetrical. Of course the combination determines the critical frequencies at which conversion takes place. Even if you use rods as small as 1/8 inch and wind with #36 wire it should work at reasonable medium high frequencies.
When measured on a radio frequency bridge, it shows very peculiar properties. There are certain frequencies at which it is impossible to balance the RF bridge, and that is a direct contradiction to what any electrical engineer will tell you should happen with a coil wound on a ferrite core.
This coil converts ordinary radio frequency energy into a tensor beam. It depends on the particular sample of ferrite and the selection of operating frequency and power. There is definitely an optimum frequency and a minimum power to generate the beam. Your best indication is when you feed a fair amount of power into the unit without it getting the least bit warm. If it does get warm, you are doing something wrong. Incidentally, I am talking in terms of at least 100 watts RF input.
Apparently the hole down the center of the core is necessary for its proper functioning, as is an adequate power input. It will take a kilowatt comfortably, without heating at all, and we know that it will work on 100 watts, but it won’t work for us on 30 watts. It just gets hot on the lower power! I don’t know what the lower cutoff power is.
The main point is to find the frequencies at which it will “convert” ordinary radio energy into tensor energy. At these frequencies it is possible to send a kilowatt or more into the coil without it showing any tendency to get warm. Under these conditions a small but real tensor beam is being generated, and with which an expert operator can accomplish a great deal. I can’t tell you how to find the critical frequencies because each coil and ferrite core have different values, but trial and error will disclose them eventually There are several for each unit.
With regard to the antenna, this gadget isn’t actually an antenna but we call it that. It generates a special type of wave, which is not a hertzian wave. It more closely resembles the waves which follow nerves.
When connected to a transmitter, treat it as any normal antenna for loading and tuning. There will be a few points of magnetic domain resonance which will be loss, but anywhere else the device will generate the required waves. It will not matter whether or not the antenna converter is shielded as the doughnut waves go through anything. The most remarkable property of this system is that the waves can be directed mentally.
I think you might be a bit hasty in dismissing “telepathic” communication with these people from elsewhere, since I know that the system they use does resemble telepathy to some extent, but it actually is electrical, even though they have cut out most of the intervening equipment such as microphones, earphones, vocal cords etc. I have generated this energy in the lab, but I am not smart enough to do anything with it; I only know that it exists, and the boys from topside admit that it is what they use.
The tensor beam I have found to be quite unmanageable. I can generate it OK but can’t make it do much for me. You see, it is identical with the energies associated with the life functions in the human body and accordingly can be incorporated and directed with them, by mental control, by experts! I hope someday to be able to do it, but I am informed that it takes at least 10 years of concentrated training for the experts to learn how to do it.
The principle of this antenna is quite simple. It emanates doughnut shaped waves. Since the energy content is microscopic, the mass equivalent is very low and consequently they can be “budged” easily. In fact, they can be mentally directed quite easily, when once one has mastered the trick.
In construction, the antenna is merely a rod or tube of Ferrite, or Ferro cube, which has a high permeability, high dielectric constant and reasonably low loss at radio frequencies. On it is wound a winding of such type that turn by turn it is completely symmetrical, and progresses from one end to the other.
I have played a bit and found some extraordinary properties, one of which confirms the mathematics that the waves which this converter generates are not like Hertzian waves and do not depend on propagation for their continued existence. Consequently, I would have the idea that they would travel at whatever speed the sender could decree.
Some time ago we tried radio contact with the saucer people on 19,940 kc, but without much luck. Apparently, they could hear us sweeping by their receiver settings, and we could hear a powerful station sweeping erratically across 19,940 but we couldn’t tune it in. They said that it was due to the unstable nature of the earth’s tempic field. If this is the case, then the doughnut waves should be the clear thing for communicating with them. They say that is what they use.
With respect to this time business, I hope that you appreciate the fact that time is actually a field, the operation of which on matter gives us an entropy scale which we call “time”. This field is very much like electric and magnetic fields except that it is at right angles to both. This appreciation is just beginning to seep through to the consciousness of a few bold souls in the field of natural philosophy. http://www.treurniet.ca/Smith/SmithCoil.htm
UFO Spaceship Material Studied by Top Scientists
Paul Harper in the Daily Star writes, The Stars Academy, a group of former Secret Service, US government workers and scientists, claims to have seven samples from a downed flying saucer. “Each sample represents different elements of potential Unidentified Aerial Phenomena and how they operate,” the academy said. Initial studies of the objects under the Adam Research Project have thrown up some incredible results, according to reports. It is said the material was released when the unidentified aerial phenomenon (UAP) was transferred to the Bigelow Aerospace Company. It is a space technology company that is known for its work on expandable space station modules. They are now working on space habitats for space agencies and corporate clients. They have a long history of working for NASA. Earlier this month the Founder of Bigelow Aerospace, Robert Bigelow, announced that he is planning a real estate empire in outer space. The FAA regularly sends UFO reports to Bigelow Aerospace.
Bigelow Aerospace, founded by entrepreneur and Ufologist Robert Bigelow, 73, worked alongside government workers including Luis Elizondo and it has been reported that materials and alloys from crashed UFOs was being stored at the company’s 50-acre headquarters on the northern edge of Las Vegas.
The New York Times reported last year that “Under Mr. Bigelow’s direction, the company modified buildings in Las Vegas for the storage of metal alloys and other materials that Mr. Elizondo and program contractors said had been recovered from unidentified aerial phenomena. “Researchers also studied people who said they experienced physical effects from encounters with the objects and examined them for physiological changes.”
Alien Tech Revealed: US Government Insider Explains How UFOs Fly
Paul Harber states,-Pentagon UFO Investigator Luis Elizondo claims, “We may not be alone. He used to run the top-secret Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP), which investigated flying saucers. This groundbreaking program, which had a budget of $ 20 million allocated to it annually by the Department of Defence, was run in the Pentagon’s C RING in Washington DC. Former Nevada Senator Harry Reid pushed for its creation in 2007. Stunned US navy pilots observed a “whole fleet” of UFOs that were “going against” a 120 knots wind – in one AATIP case from 2015.
Former Pentagon intelligence official Luis Elizondo has investigated UFO reports and recently spoke at the Cherry Hill, New Jersey MUFON Conference, Advanced sensors revealed the unknown object had no propulsion system and slowed to a near stop before rotating, it is claimed.
Now Elizondo has lifted the lid on what he claims has been learned through the Pentagon program about the seemingly out-of-this-world capabilities of UFOs. He said: “I think we’ve come very close to understanding the physics of how it works, and that’s very exciting.”.
“For the first time, we have a compelling picture that what we are seeing is explained in our current understanding of physics, advanced physics, and quantum mechanics.” US defense department acknowledge UFO rotating against the wind. Incredible footage emerged last year of a sighting involving the battleship USS Nimitz in 2004 in the Pacific off the San Diego coast. Two US navy pilots, Commander David Fravor and Lieutenant Commander Jim Slaight, watched in amazement as a cylinder shaped object appeared suddenly at 80,000 feet before hurtling towards the sea and stopping at 20,000 feet.
When they approached for a closer look, the 40 foot long object “accelerated like nothing I’ve ever seen”, said Cdr Fravor. And now Elizondo believes that they may have an explanation for how UFOs achieve such extreme speeds.
“We do believe all these observables we’ve been seeing, sudden and extreme acceleration, hypersonic velocities, low observability, trans medium travel, and last but not least, positive lift, anti-gravity – is really the manifestation of a single technology,” Elizondo said. “So it’s not five exotic technologies we’re trying to figure out, it’s one. and we think we know that one too.”
Scientists employed by Bigelow Aerospace including a physicist named Dr Hal Puthoff came to the conclusion that the craft can effectively create their own time-space bubble, which allows them to fly at such incredible speeds. “We believe it has to do with a high amount of energy and the ability to warp space-time, not by a lot, but by a little,” said Elizondo.
Elizondo claims he worked on the highly-sensitive project until October last year until he resigned over excessive secrecy and internal opposition”. He believes the existence of extraterrestrials would be “beyond reasonable doubt” if it was ever discussed in court. Dr Michio Kaku –
Weather Engineering
Mark McCandlish writes, I’ve been following these developments for quite some time in connection with weather engineering programs that have been denied to exist.
The use of Aluminum Oxide nanoparticles are being used in some jet fuels as a combustion enhancement. The evidence for this use is the so-called persistent contrail or in the vernacular, “chemtrail” that has been on the upswing since about year 2000.
Aluminum Oxide nanoparticles, (Al2O3np) were originally proposed in a NASA presentation first published about the same time can be used in cloud seeding operations and can also be used as “weather forcing aerosols” through bombardment or “painting” with microwave emissions that are absorbed by these nanoparticles causing them to heat up and result in massive convective cell action, leading to the production of storm systems and afford the control of conveyance and distribution of precipitation.
In studying this material in the OSHA Material Data Safety Sheet, I extended this investigation to the Journal of Aquatic Toxicology, where I found a paper documenting the harm these nanoparticles render in fresh water aquatic systems. In particular, these materials have a devastating effect on fresh water algae, and have a cascading effect throughout the food chain of organisms that depend on this organism and/or organisms that feed upon this organism.
Here in northern California, a local biologist I know has documented a 90% decline in fresh water aquatic invertebrates. Just a few years ago, the Summer evenings here were populated with clouds of
Note: The Aluminum Oxide nanoparticles may also be causing the heavy rain patterns and flooding occurring in many states.
Hyper Alarming’ Study Shows Massive Insect Loss
Bruce Cornet reports — Insects around the world are in a crisis, according to a growing number of long-term studies showing dramatic declines in invertebrate populations. The problem is more widespread than scientists realized. Huge numbers of bugs have been lost in a pristine national forest in Puerto Rico, the study found, and the forest’s insect-eating animals have gone missing, too.
In 2014, an international team of biologists estimated that, in the past 35 years, the abundance of invertebrates such as beetles and bees had decreased by 45 percent. In Europe, insect numbers are plummeting with a 76 percent decrease in flying insects in the past few decades in Germany..
“Everything is dropping,” Lister said. The most common invertebrates in the rain forest – the moths, the butterflies, the grasshoppers, the spiders and others – are all far less abundant.
“Holy crap,” Wagner said of the 60-fold loss.
Lister and Garcia attribute this crash to climate. In the same 40-year period as the arthropod crash, the average high temperature in the rain forest increased by 4 degrees Fahrenheit. The invertebrates that live there are adapted to a narrow band of temperatures and fare poorly outside them.
The loss of honeybees is crucial as they pollinate, fruits, vegetables, coffee beans, the herbs we use to season our foods, nuts, berries, cotton for clothing, clover and alfalfa which is the main feed for the cattle industry from which we get yogurt, milk, cheese, butter, ice cream, dairy and beef..

UFO Sightings in the United States
Arizona Light
Albuquerque— I had gone outside on my patio to smoke when I saw this object. The sky was clear when I sat down on my patio chair on December 6, 2016, I looked up saw this object and thought it was not the moon. It seemed to be vibrating so I quickly snapped these photos. The first came out bright so I took another touching my photo screen camera to make it clearer. I then analyzed the photo seeing it is not the moon. I then looked up and it had disappeared at 9:05 PM. I concluded it was strange and didn’t think much of it. Recently, it had came back up in conversation which has my analyzing the situation again.. I’ve done research online and on that date the moon was about 50% full illuminating my full circle photos. , Thanks to MUFON CMS
Arkansas Soil circle
Soldotna— On May 8th we discovered a circle in the back of our yard on the lawn, there were strange puncture holes and it just looked different from the rest of the lawn. Well throughout the summer the circle has remained and the vegetation grows differently within and on the perimeter. I’ve taken pictures throughout the summers. We have also had 2 sightings in the area within the 2 years prior to this. First sighting my spouse was the only one to witness but he did capture a photo. Second sighting we both witnessed it and it actually appeared about where he saw the first sighting but it came straight toward us and actually flew over our heads past our home northwards. It was silent the whole time I believe 3 lights on it, but we couldn’t make out a shape, which is weird, It was 500-1000 feet from the ground. That’s our experience, the circle in the lawn is still there and has been all summer. It’s just strange. That I have pictures of and the first sighting. Photos are May 8, 2018- August 14, 20, October 7, and 13, 2018. October 13 photo some kind of mushrooms are growing around perimeter. Thanks to MUFON CMS
California Objects
Claremont — On September 9, 2018, I reported a UFO descending down into a field of view. I was filming MUFON case 95310v and noticed in footage a UFO was moving down faintly before that at 1:00 AM. Then I noticed it was moving up before moving down. In MUFON case 95719, and it nearly crossed paths with the airplane.
I now provide the full footage showing decent (faint) then direction reversal and ascent then direction reversal again and descent (bright) then nearly touches plane.
Illinois Lights
I was driving on my way to my house my brother and my nephew were with me in the car on October 14, 2018. Suddenly we notice these lights in the sky that resemble the ufos we have seen on the TV. We knew it was not manmade that’s why I drove to the side of the road and stared to record.
There were 6 orange orbs in 2 triangle formation but by the time I pull over they start to disappear. I was really surprised by this event since this is the second time I get to witness something like this but is the first time I have video proof.bThanks to MUFON CMS
Kansas Boomerang
‘Olathe — On Saturday night, October 20th, 2018, Granddaughter and I were in the back yard about 10:30 pm. For some reason, I looked into the sky and saw what I thought was a boomerang moving in a straight line faster than low hanging clouds. We stood and watched it move West and made a 75 degree turn to the south in 17 to 20 seconds.
. A couple of minutes later the same shape and color/composition, much higher up flew south in a 12 seconds or less. I looked online and found a picture someone else took that looks just like what I saw. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Lake Charles — On October 21, 2018. myself and 2 adult relatives(and 3 kids) were driving eastbound on Route 210 when we noticed a dark object in sky.
A family member took 4 photos and was unable to film as he said it doesn’t show up. It remained visible through the entire drive on Route 210. I am glad someone else saw it and filmed it. I am glad the other person made a report…I was considering not to. Case #95795 apparently has also filmed it as well. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Nevada Light
Las Vegas— Came home from work saw the moon was out took out my Orion 6/6i and saw that on the back of the moon was a bright light.
In all the years I have been looking at the moon I never saw this. so I took my phone and mounted it to my telescope and starting video live on Facebook. after I review my video I saw it. Thanks to MUFON CMS
New Jersey Diamond
Wayne — We were in the house and heard loud noise October 21, 2018.
. We went outside and observed a red light in the southern sky. We jumped in the car and went to the area. We saw multiple police cars. Some from Wayne and other townships. We stayed there for 10 minutes and it did not move 1 inch. I We left and got back home. We heard shooting noises . They we heard fore works. This was no helicopter. Judge for yourself watch the video. Thanks to MUFON CMS
North Carolina Triangle
Winston-Salem=– I stepped out on the balcony just after 6 am on October 23, 2018,to see 50 feet above me a triangle moving at 15 mph going West with 4 huge tail lights flashing yellow-orange and red, randomly. There was a flashing red light on top as it flew out of sight. Another one was going North but 125 feet higher and directly above me came and moving about 25 mph. I saw still another one heading towards the first going 25 mph heading NorthWest. A forth one was seen one heading South at 350 feet. I called the Winston-Salem Police and gave my account at 6:15 am. At 6:30 am officer called but wouldn’t tell me if the military was in the area. Dogs were freaking out when this happened. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Oklahoma Light
Oklahoma City — A friend of mine sent me a 30 second video from his security camera that was apparently triggered by a cat. About 10 seconds into the video, a blob of bright light appears in the lower right hand corner and no noise with a beam of light shining from above. It appears to move around on the ground a bit then appears to raise up into the light beam from above until it disappears from view at the end of the video. Things considered: 1) Helicopter search light but not as wide and dispersed as would be..
2) Drone flying overhead but nature of the light not consistent with a known source. 3) ” The equipment is reported to be in good working order. It’s uncertain whether this is an actual UFO in itself or a projection from something above. Possibly some other reports similar around same time/area will coincide. .Thanks to MUFON CMS

Salem — I was attempting to photograph the moon on this night of September 26, 2018.. It wasn’t till a week later on my computer I saw a blue object on the edge of the frame.
After enhancement saw there was actually two objects. Both are for sure not any known aircraft. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Pennsylvania Orb
Manheim — My co-worker and I observed a silvery-white object high in the sky (over two miles) while we were looking North on October 24, 2018. It appeared to hover then slowly traveled west until it was out of sight after about 15-20 minutes. We were able to get a picture of it with a cell phone camera and upon reviewing the pic discovered a second similar object following behind it. There were no sounds or contrails to indicate it was a plane or other earth-based object. Initial reaction was that it was a drone or helicopter but determined it was too high in sky. We both believe we witnessed something extraterrestrial. The shape of the objects do not look like any known earth-based aircraft. We used a tool on the camera phone to circle the objects. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Texas Disc
Dallas — We were driving across the In-wood bridge at 35 and In-wood and took many pictures back to back while driving at 50 mph across like we always do. We did not see anything until we looked at these pictures taken on September 3, 2018.
. The first time it looked as if it was flying across sky towards the east with a trail behind it and then it stopped and looks as if there was a beam coming out of it. Then a few weeks later, we took pictures again while coming across it again and caught another object just hovering there. It looks like a beam coming out of the bottom of the craft. We are not sure what this is, but when we saw it twice on a completely separate night then we knew something wasn’t right. I have not edited these pictures in anyway, but when I zoomed in, you can clearly see a dome like on this object.

Washington Object
Oso— It was October 24th, at 5 PM, I was outside when I heard a humming noise. I looked up and saw an object above me, a dark colored object in the shape of a crescent, with an elongated tip on the front, the object headed east. So I ran in the house, grabbed my camera, and took a video of it. By the time I took a video of it, it was almost gone, but I did get a little bit of the object about one minute later, it came back in the opposite direction, heading west right over my head again, and it was gone.

Worldwide UFO Sightings
Argentina Ventricular UFO
On October 16,-2018, at 15:22 the flare aperture of an intense luminary was observed just below the crescent moon to the east” of the city and began a slow shift to the south “for about 30 seconds. The first few seconds of the event were very difficult, since when shooting in Canon Sx photography, it implies first setting the “fastest possible”, the linear focus of the objective in Infinity, for five seconds. The flare appeared that took a Orbital attitude, just below the moon, I managed to take the first picture at 12 Mp, then two more and finally a small fraction of video, where at least I enter the scene (the lenticula luminosa) in another four frames that could be extracted.

Canada Lights
I received a Sony Cyber-shot 35mm camera for Xmas 2013. On New Year’s Eve 2013. I was spending time with my dog over looking Halifax Harbor, Canadian Naval Base when I saw 3 lights. One was bigger and closer than the other two. I began to take pictures as they came closer. They were getting bigger, closer very quickly. Then they completely stopped for about a minute. There was no noise as they moved directly over my deck and disappeared. I analyzed the photos in my computer. Conclusion: I have ruled out faulty camera; weather; airplanes; light show; military experiment, or hoax and am at a loss to what it was. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Lake Balaton — We live in Siófok and on 13 of August 2018. at 23:50 my son and I were lying on the trampoline. My son asked me: What a ….. is that ? and pointed north. In two seconds I realized what he saw… flying very fast and had no sound. It was about 200-300 meters high, rhombus shaped and had orange light. It was like when iron is glowing from heat. It was so big like my nail on my thumb. We saw it only for a few seconds because of a tree in the garden. We did not even try to make a photo. I posted it on FB, my friend’s wife that her husband had seen it. In October 2017. my wife and I saw a small sphere above the neighbor’s house. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Italy Disc
Rome— I was on vacation in Italy, traveling by high-speed train an hour outside Rome to Naples. I snapped some photos of the passing landscape out the window during the course of the trip on June 4, 2018 When I returned home I downloaded the photos to my computer and was showing them to my husband. At one point he said, “What’s that up at the top of the screen? It looks like a UFO.” I
hadn’t even seen the object when I was snapping the photo. It appeared in a sequence of four photos as a stereotypical “flying saucer taken over a period of 12 minutes traveling speed of about 90 mph. That would mean we covered a distance of about 13 miles. “Thanks to MUFON CMS

UK/England Triangle and Orbs
Enfield London –I saw a few UFOs in this area myself on October 22, 2018. I was hearing high pitched sounds that made me feel dizzy which is unusual for me, because I’m deaf. Considering the stress it has caused me and my cats with this incident I want to see if anyone else saw this craft and orbs that happened within hours of each other. It was around 7:20 pm, I was at home and I had a strong urge to look out of my window. I saw a low solid black triangle craft with three sets of dull white lights slightly cloaked as if to camouflage itself. I could clearly see the outline of this slate black triangle very faintly. It was huge about the size of a football pitch.
At 8 pm I saw this craft again but 40 minutes had been lost, as the ship glided away towards North London. At 2:35 am on my clock, I saw little sparkles of blue light floating around my living room,. My cats were alert and picked up on something being in my flat. I heard the high pitched noise again when the orbs appeared and was scared. In the morning my head and body felt pain and my wall clock had stopped at 8pm, When I was 6-7 years old and had encounters with beings negative and Positive. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Since it launched in March 2009, the telescope identified over 2,600 planets outside of our solar system, and found that as much as half of the stars visible from Earth could be surrounded by small, rocky, Earth-like planets.
Running On Fumes
Back in July, it became clear that the Kepler Space Telescope was running low on fuel — NASA has since been planning a replacement to take over the iconic satellite’s ongoing search for exoplanets.
A Legacy
Though Kepler will no longer collect any more data, there’s still plenty of images for NASA and other scientists to examine.
Just like biologists continue to discover new species by examining the samples already found in museum collections, the data already gathered by Kepler could keep astronomers busy for years to come.
A broad team of Australian scientists just equipped the Anglo-Australian Telescope at Australia’s ANU Siding Spring Observatory with a new spectrograph called Veloce, which will help astronomers spot smaller planets orbiting dimmer stars than they could before.
Wobble Head
In order to be warm enough to potentially support life as we know it, these particular rocky planets need to orbit pretty closely to their host stars. That’s because the stars that Veloce was designed to find, called M dwarfs, are dimmer than those that less-sophisticated telescopes can spot and analyze.
Because these planets are so close to their stars, the effects of their gravity on the stars’ path through the cosmos can be spotted as a distinct “velocity wobble.”
Team Work
Veloce has already been used to confirm potential earth-like planets found by other research teams, such as NASA’s planet-hunting TESS satellite. As TESS spots possible planets, other astronomers race to analyze its data.
Veloce is particularly well-equipped to probe more dimly-lit reaches of space — and find out whether these planets resemble Earth and therefore mightbe able to support some sort of life.

Space Junk
There’s a whole lot of crap orbiting our planet: hundreds of satellites, an obscene amount of debrisand space garbage, a space station, one natural moon — you get the picture.
Now the U.S. Air Force says it needs to find a better way to keep track of it all, so it just launched a contest looking for new high-tech solutions — especially ones that help protect satellites from space junk.
Any team that offers up a good solution — such as tracking space garbage with virtual reality tech — may get a share of the $100,000 prize.
Hide-And-Seek
Ideas for getting rid of all the junk orbiting the planet have ranged from large nets to death rays.
Contestants don’t necessarily need to find a way to clear out the space crap — the Air Force just wants to know where all of it is so they can safely launch more rockets and satellites without fear of collision.
Archaeologists have discovered a mysterious tunnel and funeral chamber beneath the Pyramid of the Moon near Mexico City which was believed to represent a passageway to the ancient underworld.
The 15-meter-wide (50 ft) chamber, located around 8 meters (26 ft) under the surface is believed to have been used for sacred funerary rituals. An additional tunnel leading to the Plaza of the Moon was also discovered, opening at the southern end.
“These large offering (ritual) complexes are the sacred core of the city of Teotihuacán,” archaeologist Verónica Ortega from the National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH) in Mexico said in a press release.
“All people considered it the mecca of civilisation, so what is found inside can help unravel the relationships this ancient metropolis had with other regions of Mesoamerica,” Ortega added.
Researchers from the National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH) and the Institute of Geophysics at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) discovered the passageways using an imaging technique called electrical resistivity tomography in the summer of 2017, but the findings have only just been announced.
At its peak, the city of Teotihuacan, 40 km northeast of modern-day Mexico City, was once home to 125,000 inhabitants. The population carried out human sacrifices to honor the gods, earn a bountiful harvest and good fortune in war. Further excavations at the site have yet to be announced, but researchers are optimistic they will turn up more exciting discoveries.
“In the excavations carried out in the tunnels under the main body of the pyramid, at the end of the 1980s, archaeologists Ruben Cabrera and Saburo Sugiyama found skeletons with deformed crania... along with various obsidian objects, so there’s a good possibility of making similar finds in this newly discovered tunnel,” Ortega said.

One of the biggest threats to Earth is nuclear war. Another of the biggest existential threats actually comes from our own sun.
A depiction of a coronal mass ejection, with Earth to scale.

As a result of its magnetic poles reversing position, the sun goes through 11-year solar cycles in activity, appearance and other physical phenomena that have been observed for centuries. It is during these seasonal cycles that solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs) occur. These CMEs spew massive amounts of X-rays, charged particles, and magnetized plasma across the solar system.
According to research scientist Dean Pesnell of NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, we are entering a cyclical period when there are few if any sunspots and subsequent solar flares. However, the Sun’s activity should soon be on the rise again, as long as the Sun does not enter a “grand” minimum solar period.
During such periods, sunspot and solar flare activity diminish for days at a time. The date of the minimum solar period is calculated by taking the average of sunspot activity over 12 months. As a result, identifying the precise date of the minimum solar period usually happens six months after it takes place.
CMEs Can Interfere with Electronic Communication and Navigation Equipment
There are three classifications of CMEs based on the intensity of their emitted x-rays — C-class, M-class and X-class, the highest intensity category. To put this in perspective, one X2 CME on September 6, 2017, caused widespread blackouts and the loss of all electronic communications for up to an hour on the sunlit side of Earth. It also affected navigation equipment for as much as an hour afterward.
This event may not seem significant at first. However, earlier in the final days of October 2003, now known as the “Halloween Events,” there were extreme solar storms and flares so powerful that current detectors were oversaturated. The most powerful CME of that solar storm was classified as an X45. The effects were severe:
Sweden lost all electrical power for over an hour.
Several of NASA’s observation satellites failed temporarily or had to be disabled.
Japan’s ADEOS-II satellite was destroyed.
The U.S. global positioning satellite system was severely interrupted.
An X45 extreme coronal mass ejection has not struck Earth since 1859. During what is known as the Carrington Event, telegraph equipment in the affected area burned up as the result of this CME.
NASA analysts have examined this CME event and estimated that if it occurred today, the damage would be as high as $2 trillion in the first year alone. Full recovery could take between four and 10 years.

Monitoring for Solar Flares and CMEs
Currently, most of our solar flare warnings come from the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO), whose mission was recently extended to this December. However, SOHO was primarily designed to study the sun, not to report on solar flares and CMEs. It does only this as a secondary function.
The Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory (STEREO), launched in October 2006, is another NASA solar observation mission. Two nearly identical observatories, STEREO A and STEREO B — one ahead of Earth in its orbit, the other trailing behind — trace the flow of energy and matter from the sun to Earth. This enables stereoscopic imaging of the sun and solar phenomena such as CMEs.
The STEREO mission has revealed the 3D structure of CMEs. Violent eruptions of matter from the sun can disrupt satellites and power grids, and studying these eruptions helps to understand why they happen.
However, in 2015, contact was lost for several months when the STEREO B spacecraft passed behind the sun. Later analysis of the telemetry concluded that the spacecraft was in an uncontrolled spin too rapid to be corrected. On October 11, 2016, recovery attempts ended.
STEREO A still is operational and collecting data from the sun. However, it is not collecting CME data.
CME Warning Equipment Could Be Stationed at Lagrange Points
There are five points between celestial bodies such as the Earth and the sun, called Lagrange (L) points, where the orbital angular momentum and gravitational forces all balance. That allows objects to be parked there indefinitely. Positioning warning spacecraft at some of these five Lagrange points would optimize the time between CME detection and when the CME would reach the Earth.
L1 lies about one million miles from Earth. L1 is currently occupied by the Deep Space Climate Observatory and has an uninterrupted view of the Sun.
L2 also lies a million miles from Earth, but in the opposite direction of the sun. At this point, a spacecraft can get a clear view of deep space. NASA’s Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) is currently at this spot, measuring the cosmic background radiation left over from the Big Bang. The James Webb Space Telescope will move into this region later in 2018.
The third Lagrange point, L3, lies behind the sun and opposite Earth’s orbit. For now, science has not found a use for this spot mostly due to cost concerns. The complete configuration is depicted below:
L1, L2, and L3 are all unstable points with precarious equilibrium. Spacecraft must make continual slight adjustments to maintain their positions at these points in space.
L4 and L5, however, are stable, “like a ball in a large bowl,” according to the European Space Agency (ESA). They provide a unique view of streams of charged material heading toward Earth, which allows scientists to better measure the speed of the coronal mass ejections headed toward Earth.
Currently, spacecraft parked at L1 offer only a four- to six-hour warning of a CME. A warning spacecraft parked at L4 or L5 could provide as much as 15 to 17 hours of warning. However, power-grid operators need at least one full day’s warning to prepare for a Carrington-type coronal mass ejection.
The ESA plans to launch a satellite to L5 in 2023 at the cost of almost half a billion dollars.
The bottom line is that within two years, we will have no operational systems in space watching for coronal mass ejections headed for Earth.
CMEs Are Capable of Widespread Damage
The destruction from a massive Carrington-type CME would be widespread, starting with all satellites in Earth orbit. Various GPS satellites would likely be destroyed or disabled for an unknown period of time.
Also, all navigation systems would be adversely affected. Such a CME could easily inject a trillion-watt current into electrical grids, effectively frying them.
We saw a sample of this damage in 1989 when eastern Canada’s power grid was knocked offline. All airborne aircraft would be at risk from radiation and electronic surges. Also, the International Space Station could be at risk depending on its position at the time of impact. Sewage treatment plants, air conditioning units in buildings and homes, gas station pumps, and media transmissions would all be knocked offline for an undetermined amount of time.
A Carrington-type event today would plunge the affected part of the world into a brief dark era, possibly causing public panic. No one has estimated how many people might come down with radiation poisoning or even die from such a CME impact.
As a result, it behooves the U.S. government, NASA and the ESA to reprioritize their near-term programs to ensure that a solar flare detection system is in place and operational at L5 as soon as possible. After all, $500 million dollars is pocket change compared to $2-plus trillion in estimated damage.
NASA’s Parker Solar Probe has beaten a decades-old record for making the closet approach to the sun by of any man-made spacecraft.
Illustration of NASA”s Parker Solar Probe.

The previous record for the closest solar approach was set by the German-American Helios 2 spacecraft in April 1976. On 29 October 2018, at exactly 1:04 pm EDT (17:04 GMT), Parker moved closer than 42.73 million kilometers (26.55 million miles) from the Sun’s surface.
Parker is set to break other records soon, such as the top heliocentric and geocentric speeds. In 1976, the same Helios 2 set the record for heliocentric speed (relative to the sun) at 246,960 kilometers per hour (153,454 miles per hour). Parker is expected to beat this record on 29 October at about 10:54 pm EDT.
What’s more, the probe — tasked with studying the inner workings of the sun — is expected to reach a staggering top speed of 692,017 km/h (430,000 mph) during its final pass around the sun, shattering any previous record for geocentric speed (relative to Earth). It won’t be until 2025 until this happens, however.
“Parker Solar Probe has been one of our most challenging missions to date,” said Omar Baez, Nasa’a launch director, when the probe first launched in August 2018. “I’m very proud of the team that worked to make this happen.We at Nasa and the Launch Services Program are thrilled to be part of this mission.”
The influence of solar activity on Earth and other worlds is known as space weather, but there are many mysterious aspects of it that are still unknown to scientists. This is what Parker is for.
For its mission, Parker carries a range of instruments that can study the sun both remotely and in situ (directly) — the kind of observations that might unravel some of the sun’s most well-kept secrets.
Of course, NASA has several specific questions it wants Parker to answer. One of them has to do with the mystery of the acceleration of solar wind — the constant ejection of magnetized material from the sun. Somewhere, somehow, this solar wind is accelerated to supersonic speeds.
Parker will fly straight through the corona — the sun’s atmosphere that extends millions of kilometers into outer space. The corona is scorching hot, reaching temperatures in the range of millions of degrees Celsius. However, the sun’s surface has a temperature of only about 6,000 degrees Celsius. This makes no sense at first glance: how is it possible that the surface of the sun is so cold compared to its atmosphere? Well, scientists hope that Parker might come up with an answer to this counter-intuitive conundrum.
During its closest flyby, slated for June 2025, Parker will be only 6.1 million kilometers (3.8 million miles) from the sun’s surface, where temperatures can reach millions of degrees Celsius. Meanwhile, Parker will complete 24 perihelions, looping between Venus and the Sun.

WETENSCHAPEnkele maanden voor zijn tiende verjaardag is het Kepler Space Observatory dood verklaard. De telescoop werd gelanceerd op 7 maart 2009 en ontdekte sindsdien meer dan 2.600 nieuwe exoplaneten. Kepler kan zichzelf niet langer richten op kosmische objecten of data naar de aarde versturen. Het werk van de legendarische telescoop zit erop.
Het Kepler Space Observatory cirkelde tien jaar lang net zoals de aarde in een baan rond de zon en speurde met zijn telescoop het heelal af op zoek naar andere exoplaneten (planeten die draaien rond andere sterren dan onze zon).
Sinds enkele maanden kampte de satelliet, die zijn verwachte levensduur al ruim overschreden had, met een nijpend brandstoftekort. De voorbije weken werd het steeds moeilijker om de telescoop op sterren te richten en mogelijke exoplaneten te identificeren. Nu komt er helemaal geen reactie meer. Kepler bevindt zich momenteel op zo’n 150 miljoen kilometer van de aarde en zal zich in een stabiele baan om de zon blijven bewegen.
‘Dankzij Kepler en zijn wetenschappelijke missie weten we nu dat planeten in onze Melkweg vaker voorkomen dan sterren’
Paul Hertz, directeur astrofysica bij NASA
Ontdekkingen
Kepler speurde bijna tien jaar lang het heelal af op zoek naar dipjes in de helderheid van sterren: dat kan wijzen op het bestaan van een planeet die eromheen cirkelt. “Het was alsof je probeerde een vlo te detecteren die over de koplamp van een auto kroop terwijl de auto 160 kilometer verderop stond”, zegt NASA-wetenschapper William Boruki, die aan het hoofd stond van het eerste Kepler-wetenschapsteam.
De Keplertelescoop ontdekte meer dan 2.600 planeten buiten ons zonnestelsel en daarnaast nog zo’n 2.900 potentiële kandidaat-exoplaneten, waarvan de data nog verder moet onderzocht worden. Zo onthulde de satelliet het bestaan van rotsachtige planeten ongeveer zo groot als de aarde, waar leven mogelijk zou kunnen zijn. Kepler stootte ook op enkele superaardes: planeten die groter zijn dan de aarde, maar kleiner dan planeet Neptunus. Vorig jaar slaagde de satelliet er zelfs in om een zonnestelsel met acht planeten te identificeren, net zoals het onze.
“Het heeft ons begrip van onze plek in de kosmos compleet veranderd”, zegt Paul Hertz, directeur astrofysica bij NASA. “Voor we Kepler lanceerden, wisten we niet of planeten vaak voorkwamen of zeldzaam waren in onze Melkweg. Maar dankzij Kepler en zijn wetenschappelijke missie weten we nu dat planeten in onze Melkweg vaker voorkomen dan sterren.”
Opvolger
De Keplertelescoop concentreerde zich op sterren die duizenden lichtjaren van ons verwijderd zijn en toonde volgens NASA dat er statistisch gezien minstens één planeet rond elke ster in de Melkweg cirkelt.
In april werd de TESS-ruimtetelescoop gelanceerd: deze opvolger van Kepler concentreert zich op sterren dichter bij huis en identificeerde al enkele mogelijke planeten.
WETENSCHAPExact tachtig jaar geleden deed Orson Welles radioluisteraars geloven dat marsmannetjes op aarde landden. Tal van angstige luisteraars geloofden in het hoorspel en dachten dat het einde nabij was. Achteraf bleek de radio-uitzending deel uit te maken van fictiereeks “The War of the Worlds” waarbij wekelijks zulke uitzendingen werden gedraaid. Zou er vandaag de dag paniek uitbreken?
Op 30 oktober 1938 onderbrak een acteur de radio-uitzending met enkele verontrustende nieuwsberichten. Hij sprak met een dringende toon over “drie explosies” en “lichtflitsen” die afkomstig zouden zijn van marsmannetjes en hun ruimtevaartuig. De acteur voerde ook enkele getuigen op –althans dat leek zo want in feite waren het ook gewoon acteurs- die het drama dat zich afspeelde, omschreven. Daarbij werden termen zoals “UFO’s” en “vreemde wezentjes” in de mond genomen. Een hittestraal zou daarbij al tientallen mensen gedood hebben. Paniek.
Hoewel het programma doorspekt was met theatrale elementen, geloofden veel mensen dat het allemaal echt was. Krantenkoppen verschenen daags nadien en kopten: “Duizenden luisteraars renden weg van hun huizen in New Jersey en New York, velen met handdoeken over het gezicht als bescherming tegen de giftige gassen”. Latere studies suggereren evenwel dat de paniek veel minder groot was dan de nieuwsberichten destijds deden vermoeden.
Ruimtewetenschappers geloofden toen overigens ook al niet in een mogelijke invasie van marsmannetjes. Ze waren zich er van bewust dat de planeet niet in staat is om een beschaving van intelligente buitenaardse wezens te herbergen. “Tegen het einde van de jaren ’30 wisten we dat er weinig zuurstof was. Bovendien vonden we geen vloeibaar water”, aldus Seth Shostak, senior astronoom aan het SETI-instituut (search for extraterrestrial intelligence).
Sterker nog, de gewelddadige aflevering die Welles beschrijft en liet opvoeren tijdens de radio-uitzending, is verreweg het minst waarschijnlijke scenario voor een eerste ontmoeting tussen buitenaards leven en de mens. De wezentjes zouden immers niet alleen bestaan, maar ook op de hoogte zijn van de mens én in het bezit van technisch geavanceerde wapens.
Buitenaardse wezens afluisteren
SETI scant dagelijks het luchtruim op radiosignalen die geproduceerd worden door vormen van intelligent leven. En hoewel er waarschijnlijk veel minder intelligent leven in het universum is dan microbieel leven, zouden intelligente buitenaardse wezens hun aanwezigheid mogelijk over veel grotere afstanden kunnen uitzenden.
“Microben kunnen zuurstof in de atmosfeer maken, maar intelligent leven kan gigantische lasers of radiozenders maken, dus je kan ze, als ze bestaan, misschien wel vanop grotere afstand horen,” aldus Shostak. En natuurlijk vereist het vinden van buitenaardse signalen het eigenlijke bestaan van zo’n buitenaards leven, maar volgens Shostak is het slechts een kwestie van tijd.

Massahysterie of fascinatie?
Een soortgelijke aankondiging –als toepasselijk mopje voor Halloween- over ongewenst bezoek van buitenaards leven zou volgens Michael Wall, auteur van “Out There” (een wetenschappelijke gids over buitenaards leven), vandaag de dag eerder fascinatie dan angst opwekken. “Met al het nieuws over exoplaneten zijn mensen er klaar voor”, zegt hij.
Een eerste ontmoeting met E.T. zou dus een stuk minder beangstigend zijn dan de aliens die “War of The Worlds” aankondigde. Na de uitzending beweerde Orson Welles dat hij geen idee had dat zijn wezens met tentakels en vuurwapens zo serieus genomen zouden worden. Hij verontschuldigde zich: “Het was een schokkende ervaring om te beseffen dat ik zo’n wijdverspreide terreur had veroorzaakt.”
Joseph Mcmoneagle, one of the most successful Army-trained remote viewers, peered into the past to look into the possible origins of human history. He saw that we were created by intelligent beings in what he called a 'laboratory.'
Reflect On:
Why is the mainstream story of human history still limited to Darwin's Theory of Evolution? Why have so many discoveries, like giants, and life on other planets, been completely concealed and brushed off as a conspiracy theory?
The true origins of human history remain a mystery, but that’s not what mainstream academia would have us believe. Since Darwin, human evolution and ‘the survival of the fittest’ has been pushed on the population as some sort of scientific truth, despite the fact that it remains a theory with multiple loopholes and ‘missing links.’ If you question it, in some circumstances, you are almost considered a nut.
This continues to happen in many different fields of knowledge; when you question beliefs that have been ingrained for so long you get a harsh response, and in some cases, you’re liable to be fined, put in jail or at the very least you receive tremendous amounts of hate and censorship. What we don’t hear about is the fact that there are several hundred scientists, if not several thousand, who have spoken up against the scientific validity of the theory of evolution. I recently wrote an article about more than 500 scientists coming together to reject Darwin’s theory of evolution and explain why it’s not really valid at all.
Our DNA Originated Somewhere Else
Even one of the founding fathers of DNA, Francis Crick, believed that human DNA must have originated from somewhere else in the galaxy, whereby “organisms were deliberately transmitted to earth by intelligent beings on another planet.” You can read more about that here. I also recently wrote about a paper that was publishedby 33 scientists in the Progress in Biophysics and Molecular Biology Journal suggesting that the flourishing life during the Cambrian era (Cambrian Explosion) originated from the stars.
“With the rapidly increasing number of exoplanets that have been discovered in the habitable zones of long-lived red dwarf stars (Gillon et al., 2016), the prospects for genetic exchanges between life-bearing Earth-like planets cannot be ignored. ”(The study)
There is a great little blurb from Cosmos Magazine, one of the few outlets who is talking about the study.
Serious inquiry into the origins of human history are not encouraged in the mainstream. Yet as we dig a little on what’s being done, there is a lot to find out, with new theories and discoveries that seem to be popping up every single year. Modern day education is hardly keeping up with this, and in fact continues to promulgate old theories and notions that have long been disproven. As a result, nobody beyond ardent self-motivated researchers are learning about new developments or have any knowledge of these viewpoints.
Opening Our Minds
The suppression of the discoveries of giant humanoid skeletons falls directly into this category, though the secrecy that wraps up the Smithsonian is a topic for another article. Suffice it to say that successful cover-ups of information are possible in part due to the phenomenon of ‘cognitive dissonance’, which speaks to the extreme discomfort that a piece of information that disrupts the worldview you grew up with can have on you. Many of us have and do experience this, including myself. In today’s day and age, it’s important to practice overcoming the discomfort to keep an open mind.
Consider entertaining new ideas without necessarily accepting them, just give them a chance to swirl in your mind a bit. With new information constantly emerging at a rapid pace in all fields, an open mind is what serves us best. If we stay closed and refuse to even look at or acknowledge evidence that contradicts what we believe, we will never advance towards actual truth, and simply be caught up in an agnostic state while never really getting to the bottom of the questions that are naturally on our mind.
The StarGate Program
The StarGate program was co-founded by Russell Targ (watch his banned TED talk about ESP here), Hal Puthoff, who is now a member of the ‘To The Stars Academy’ with Tom Delonge, and other notable names who have worked on Deep Black Budget programs within the U.S. government. They are currently spearheading an effort to let the American public know that UFOs are real and that there is sufficient evidence to suggest that, as Louis Elizondo says, “we are not alone, whatever that means.”
The StarGate program investigated parapsychological phenomenon like remote viewing, telepathy, telekinesis, and clairvoyance. The program yielded high statistically significant results and was used multiple times for intelligence gathering purposes. A lot of interesting information came out of the literature that was declassified in 1995 after the program ran for more than two decades.
It was a complete mystery why the program was shut down: remote viewing, for example, which is the ability to describe the physical characteristics at a given location irrespective of distance, was found to be repeatable, even more than findings in the hard sciences, with a success rate of over 80 percent. Remote viewing was how the rings around Jupiter were actually discovered by Ingo Swann before NASA was able to measure them. You can read more about that here.
To summarize, over the years, the back-and-forth criticism of protocols, refinement of methods and successful replication of this type of remote viewing in independent laboratories has yielded considerable scientific evidence for the reality of the [remote viewing] phenomenon. Adding to the strength of these results was the discovery that a growing number of individuals could be found to demonstrate high-quality remote viewing, often to their own surprise. . . . The development of this capability at SRI has evolved to the point where visiting CIA personnel with no previous exposure to such concepts have performed well under controlled laboratory conditions.”(source)
The Breadth Of Remote Viewing
There are examples in the literature, from remote viewers looking at classified Russian technology during the cold-war era, locating a lost spy plane in Africa and the prediction of future events. Yes, along with remote viewing comes the ability to view into the past, and view into the future. Obviously, this gets tricky, especially if we look at quantum physics, which works in tandem with parapsychology. In quantum physics, experiments have also shown how what happened in the past can change the future, and what happens in the future can change the past, on a quantum scale. You can read more about that here.
There were multiple people working within the Remote Viewing Program, which was conducted at Stanford Research Institute (SRI) in conjunction with multiple intelligence agencies, and one of them was Joseph Mcmoneagle. Many of these people, after decades in the program, continued on with their research and experimentation long after the program was declassified. Joseph was one of the most successful Army-trained remote viewers, and one of the original members of project Stargate. He was actually awarded the Legion of Merit for “producing crucial and vital intelligence unavailable from any other source” to the intelligence community.
The Origins Of Humanity
In 1983, McMoneagle worked with Robert A. Monroe, founder of the Monroe Institute in Faber, Virginia, which provided basic out-of-body orientation for many of the military remote viewers. There, he conducted a session seeking to discover the origin of humanity. As the late great author and researcher Jim Marrs points out in his best selling book Our Occulted History points out:
During the 129-minute session, he described a shoreline on what appeared to him to be a primitive Earth. He later estimated a time of about thirty million to fifty million years after the time of the dinosaurs. Cavorting on this shoreline was a large family of protohumans-hairy animals about four feet in height, walking upright and possessing eyes exhibiting a spark of intelligence despite a somewhat smaller cranial capacity. Two things surprised McMoneagle in this session. These creatures appeared to be aware of his psychic presence, and they did not originate at that location.
McMoneagle described his experience in his 1998 book, The Ultimate Time Machine:
This particular species of animal is put…specifically in that barrier place…called the meeting of the land and the sea…I also get the impression that they’re…ah…they were put there. They mysteriously appeared. They are not descended from an earlier species, they were put there (by a) seed ship…no, that’s not right. Keep wanting to say ship, but it’s not a ship. I keep seeing a…myself…I keep seeing…oh, hell, for lack of a better word, let’s call it a laboratory, where they are actually inventing these creatures. They are actually constructing animals from genes. Why would they be doing that? Can we do this yet…here and now? Like cutting up genes and then pasting them back together. You know, sort of like splicing plants…or grafting them, one to another…Interesting, it’s like they are building eggs by injecting stuff into them with a mixture of DNA or gene parts of pieces.
He described these creatures as delicate-looking aquiline-featured humanoids, unclothed, in possession of a prehensile tail and large “doe-like” eyes. They seemed to be using some sort of light that McMoneagle had a hard time describing, but eventually described it as a “grow light.”
Marrs got the impression that it was like someone tending to a garden, and planting seeds, but “there isn’t any concern about the seeds after they are planted…It’s simply like…well…put these seeds here and on to better and bigger business. No concern about backtracking and checking on the condition of the seeds. They can live or die, survive or perish.” The session ended with him moving closer in time and perceiving these beings growing in size and ability, eventually becoming herding humans.
The surveillance of and interference with humanity is documented in the lore of almost all civilizations that have roamed the planet. Although some have called this mere ‘interpretation,’ it reminds me of people referring to the confirmation of spiritual and metaphysical realms as a result of quantum physics. It is simply labelled as an interpretation due to the fact that it upsets so many belief systems and long-held preconceived ideas.
The Takeaway
The story of human history has a lot of holes. From the UFO extraterrestrial phenomena to the discovery of strange skeletal remains, to the rejection of Darwinism all the way to the existence of intelligence ancient civilizations like Atlantis, and others that thrived possibly millions of years ago, we are like, as author Graham Hancock coined, a species with amnesia. But perhaps we are starting to remember. Perhaps our only two explanations are incorrect, or perhaps they’re both correct, combined with other factors. The point is, what we’ve been told is not true, and the recognition of that fact will lead us on the path towards true discovery, and away from the concealment and manipulation of information and truth.
I’m not saying this is how humans are created, perhaps it is just some sort of glimpse into something much bigger that took place billions of years ago?
Is de mens gemaakt in een laboratorium? Officier vertelt wat hij zag tijdens het Stargate Project
Is de mens gemaakt in een laboratorium? Officier vertelt wat hij zag tijdens het Stargate Project
Het Stargate Project werd in 1978 in het leven geroepen door het Amerikaanse leger om onderzoek te doen naar parapsychologische fenomenen zoals remote viewing, telepathie, telekinese en helderziendheid.
Inmiddels zijn veel geheime documenten over het project openbaar gemaakt. Het is onduidelijk waarom het succesvolle project plotseling werd beëindigd.
Het Stanford Research Institute (SRI) en verschillende inlichtingendiensten experimenteerden met remote viewing.
Oorsprong van de mensheid
Eén van de mensen die deelnamen aan deze experimenten was Joseph McMoneagle. Hij was één van de meest succesvolle remote viewers.
Hij werd zelfs opgenomen in het Legioen van Verdienste, een Amerikaanse onderscheiding, omdat hij cruciale inlichtingen had aangeleverd die niet via andere bronnen verkregen konden worden.
Eén van de experimenten had betrekking op de oorsprong van de mensheid.
Laboratorium
Gedurende een 129 minuten durende sessie zag officier McMoneagle naar eigen zeggen een kustlijn van iets wat leek op een primitieve aarde, zo’n 30 tot 50 miljoen na het uitsterven van de dinosaurussen.
Langs de kust zag hij protomensen, harige dieren die rechtop liepen en die ongeveer 1,2 meter lang waren.
Hij kreeg de indruk dat ze daar waren neergezet. “Ze stamden niet af van eerdere soorten, maar waren gemaakt in een laboratorium,” zei hij.
Mensen
“Ik zie een laboratorium waar ze deze dieren maken met behulp van genen,” aldus McMoneagle tijdens de sessie. “Waarom zouden ze dat doen? Kunnen wij dat ook?”
“Het is alsof ze eieren maken door ze te injecteren met een mix van DNA of delen van genen,” klonk het.
Tegen het einde van de sessie zag hij hoe deze wezens steeds groter werden en over meer vermogens beschikten, en uiteindelijk mensen werden.
A triangular UFO that photographs show resembled a flying stingray was seen recently in Ohio near the site of a famous encounter 45 years ago between a UFO and a military helicopter – an encounter the military acknowledged but has never resolved. Have the aliens returned? Why was there no encounter this time? Or is it one of ours?
“It looked just like a sting ray and was all black. I have the original 2 photos of the craft as well as zoomed screen shots which show the craft in very plain view.”
This report comes from the site UFOStalker.com (includes five photos) which covers sightings on MUFON. The witness saw the UFO on September 3rd, 2018, and admitted that he was taking photos of a drill site with his father and neither heard nor saw anything unusual. However, they spotted the UFO in two photos taken no more than two seconds apart. Even under magnification, they admitted being unable to tell if the UFO was ascending or descending, but figured, because of the location of the pointy end, it was heading towards the Mansfield Lahm Air National Guard Base in the nearby city of Mansfield where the 179th Airlift Wing (179 AW) unit is stationed.
That’s where the story gets interesting. He claims the father showed the photo to “10-15 airmen from the wing” and none would admit to knowing what it is nor were any aware of unusual base activity on September 3rd. However, Perrysville is also the location of another report of a triangular UFO in 2016. Also, the witness claims that the photo becomes “distorted” when it is forwarded via email.
Then there’s the famous incident over Mansfield on October 6, 1973, when an Army Reserve helicopter with four crew members returning to Cleveland “encountered a near midair collision with an unidentified flying object” and filed an official signed report to their superiors. It has become known as the “Coyne/Helicopter” incident because the commander of the chopper was Major Larry Coyne, who retold the story numerous times.
“We were flying along at about 2,500 feet when the crew chief on the helicopter observed a red light on the east horizon. He then informed me that the light was closing on the helicopter — that it was coming at us on a collision course. I looked to the right and observed that the object became bigger and the light became brighter, and I began to descend the helicopter toward the ground, to get out of the collision course path. We were descending and this object was like a missile locked onto the helicopter, only it came at us on a perpendicular angle, to hit us almost broadside. It looked like we were going to collide with it and we braced for impact, and then I heard the crewmen in the back say, ‘Look up!’ and I observed this craft stopped directly in front of us — stopped — it was hovering, right over the helicopter! It was a bright green light. And all of the red night lights that we utilize for night navigation were dissolved in this green light — the whole cabin turned green. It hit all of us directly in the face. We assumed it was a high-performance fighter, but when it stopped directly in front of us, then all four of us realized that was no high-performance aircraft. This craft, from the angle that we saw it, was cigar-shaped. It had no wings, no vertical or horizontal stabilizer, was approximately 60 feet long, 15-20 feet in height.”
So, the Mansfield, Ohio, area has another unexplained UFO incident. While the shapes are dissimilar, the proximity to an air base is not, lending credence to them being secret military aircraft sightings that the military is not interested in revealing, even to its own personnel. Also, the “cigar shape” was a common UFO descriptor in the UFO-crazy 70’s while the “triangle” is popular today, matching the description of the rumored TR-3B. Forty-five years later, the question still remains … is the military becoming more open about UFOs or is it (or some other foreign military) responsible for the sightings?
If you live in the Mansfield area, have your phone ready and keep looking!
History is filled with all manner of mysteries that continue to perplex us well into modern times, and in many ways it almost seems as if there is just as much that we don’t know as that which we do. Among some of the oddities that tend to emerge from the depths of history are various artifacts and objects that defy easy classification and manage to confuse and compel. Such strange items might simply puzzle us, while others threaten to change history as we know it, but all are elusive oddities we struggle to understand. From out of place artifacts that should not exist, to strange objects that defy understanding, to just plain weird discoveries, here is a selection of strange historical oddities that have been found over the years.
Many such strange discoveries take the form of ancient artifacts that have turned up in places where they have no business being. In 1933, an archeological dig headed by archaeologist José García Payón in Mexico’s Toluca Valley, just 43 miles from Mexico City, came across a rather strange find among the many pre and post-Columbian artifacts uncovered at the site. The area was determined to have been a grave site, and as such had many grave offerings left by long forgotten visitors, such as various objects made of gold, copper, turquoise, rock crystal, jet, bone, shell and pottery, all dated to between 1476 and 1510 AD, but there amongst them was found a small terra cotta head that did not fit any of the known designs for the people of that region. Indeed, it was to prove far stranger.
When the head was examined, it was immediately apparent that it was very old, and that it had a distinctive style very similar to artifacts found in ancient Rome, which didn’t seem to make any sense at all, as this was a pre-Columbian grave site in Mexico. Later carbon dating done on the head itself put its origins at somewhere between around the 9th and 13th century AD , making it far older than the site it was found at, and generating theories that it was evidence of some sort of contact between the ancient Romans and the Mesoamericans. For his part, Payón himself sort of swept the strange find under the carpet, not publishing anything on the finding until 1960. In later years what has come to be known as the Tecaxic-Calixtlahuaca head has been further discussed and analyzed, and in 2001 it was examined by the archeologist Romeo H. Hristov, of the University of New Mexico. Hristov came to the conclusion that it actually dated to the 2nd century AD, and that due to its age and the distinctive hairstyle and beard of the head that it must have been a Roman artifact that had been brought to the region in pre-Columbian times, an assertion that would be shared by Bernard Andreae, a director emeritus of the German Institute of Archaeology in Rome, Italy, who would write:
[the head] is without any doubt Roman, and the lab analysis has confirmed that it is ancient. The stylistic examination tells us more precisely that it is a Roman work from around the II century A.D., and the hairstyle and the shape of the beard present the typical traits of the Severian emperors period [193-235 A.D.], exactly in the ‘fashion’ of the epoch.
The Tecaxic-Calixtlahuaca head
The origins of the mysterious head and how it would up in Mexico have continued to be discussed and debated, and there have been many other ideas on the matter. For some it was simply an artifact brought over by early European explorers or even Vikings in pre-Columbian times, although how it ended up at the Mexican grave site is unclear. It could have also been brought over at some point by traders from Asia, such as China or India, where it somehow managed to venture out to that site. It could even have somehow drifted to Mexico from some far away Roman shipwreck or could just be a complete hoax that was planted at the site as a prank. For now the mysteries swirl, but one thing for sure is that an ancient Roman terra cotta head is certainly a strange thing to turn up outside of Mexico City.
Almost as strange was a discovery made in 1954, when an amateur archeologist by the name of Guy Mellgren stumbled across something decidedly while exploring in the state of Maine, in the United States. Mellgren had been poking around at the site of what was once a Native American settlement at Naskeag Point on Penobscot Bay in Brooklin, Maine, when he found a treasure trove of old Native artifacts, but as he sifted through his find he came across what appeared to be an ancient silver coin, which seemed jarringly out of place there amongst the Native relics. Unsure of what he had found, Mellgren brought the coin to specialists and things would get even weirder still.
Experts who examined the highly corroded coin at first thought it to be a 12th century British penny, and it was subsequently sorted of filed away with the other relics, but in 1978 the coin was re-examined and found to in fact be a very old Norwegian coin, dating all the way back to the reign of Olaf Kyrre, who was King of Norway between the years of 1067 to 1093 AD. This has been confirmed by other experts and is not really in dispute, but what is less clear is how it ended up in a Native American settlement that dates to 1180 to 1235. Although Norse Vikings from settlements in Greenland are known to have reached areas of Newfoundland long before Columbus arrived on these shores, how would a Viking coin find its way to Maine in pre-Columbian America, far south of where Vikings were ever thought to have ventured? Theories have ranged from that the Vikings did travel south, where they made contact with the Natives of the region, which would rewrite history as we know it, or that Natives from further north traded the coin with other tribes, after which it made its way to Maine being passed along. What makes it all even more baffling is that among the 30,000 artifacts found at the site this one coin is the only thing at all that is of Norse origin. Of course there is also the idea that the coin was a hoax, but in the end the “Goddard Coin,” also called the “Maine Penny” remains a curious unsolved mystery.
The Maine Penny
Other much larger out of place artifacts have been found on occasion, and a good example would be a gigantic, 80-ton boulder found on a hillside at Hidden Mountain, in Los Lunas, New Mexico in 1933. In this year a Frank Hibben, an archaeologist from the University of New Mexico, was led to the monolithic stone by a local guide, who claimed it had first been found in the 1880s. Upon this enormous slab of solid rock was a flattened area upon which was inscribed a passage written in ancient Hebrew, which is odd considering the inscription was estimated as being anywhere between 500 to 2,000 years old, putting it well out of the time frame for ancient Paleo Hebrew to have any business being in North America.
Experts that have examined what has come to be known as the Los Lunas Decalogue Stone believe it may have been used as an ancient Samaritan mezuzah, which were boulders placed at synagogues and other important places and etched with passages from the Decalogue, but this still doesn’t explain why or how it ended up all the way over in New Mexico up to 2,000 years ago. While there has been much talk that it is evidence of pre-Columbian visitation by Semitic explorers, there is also much criticism that it is likely a hoax, either by settlers in the 1800s or perhaps even carried out by Hibben himself to support his own fringe theories on Pre-Clovis migration to North America. Archaeologist Kenneth Feder is among the skeptics, and has flat out denied the authenticity of the stone, saying:
There are no pre-Columbian ancient Hebrew settlements, no sites containing the everyday detritus of a band of ancient Hebrews, nothing that even a cursory knowledge of how the archaeological record forms would demand there would be. From an archaeological standpoint, that’s plainly impossible.
The Los Lunas boulder
However, the stone has still managed to be widely discussed and debated, and it is far from solved. It is hard to study, as its immense size make it unable to be moved to a museum, vandals have destroyed portions of the inscription, and there has never been a consensus on where this mysterious boulder came from or why it holds ancient Hebrew. Is this monstrous boulder with its enigmatic markings evidence of the pre-Columbian presence of Hebrew speaking settlers in the New World, or is it all fake? Who knows?
Some odd historical objects are not necessarily out of place, but still manage to remain confounding and anomalous all the same. In 1929, German theologian Gustav Adolf Deissmann was cataloging items at the vast library of the Topkapı Palace, in Istanbul, Turkey, when he came across an old, dusty bundled up wad of seemingly discarded gazelle skin parchment. It would have seemed like just basically garbage at the time, but when the parchment was unfurled it would prove to hold within it quite an amazing discovery indeed.
There upon the parchment was a portion of an intricate map, unlike anything Deissmann had ever seen, and when it was analyzed by experts it was found to have been made by the Ottoman admiral and cartographer Piri Reis in 1513 AD. Although only a third of the map was intact, the rest missing, it was found that this was not just any ordinary old map, as it seemed to be part of an actual map of the world, and it was shockingly accurate for its time. Here was a map that correctly outlined such far flung lands as Europe, Africa, Caribbean islands, and even South America, islands such as the Azores and Canary Islands, and Japan, as well as uncharted areas such as Nova Scotia, the coast of Antarctica, and the Andes Mountains, at a time when many of these places had not even been discovered yet and all with impressive accuracy that should have been impossible at the time. Indeed, some experts have even said that it simply could not have been done with anything less than satellite imagery, and this is a map drawn up in 1513.
The Piri Reis map
No one could figure out how this could have been done, but there were hints in that the map listed some of its sources, including numerous other Arab and Indian maps, and even mentioning a long lost and nearly mythical map supposedly compiled by Christopher Columbus, which is thought to have been the first map of the world that he is speculated to have made while in the West Indies. This map has never been found, but it is strongly believed that somehow Piri Reis had seen it and used it together with around 20 other maps to craft his own, although none of the source maps mentioned, nor the missing portions of the map, have ever been located. To this day the stunning accuracy of the Piri Reis Map remains a baffling anomaly. How did he get this information? How was he able to map out places not even known to have been discovered at the time? What would the lost portions reveal? We may never know.
Some historical anomalies are rather numerous, yet still manage to baffle as no one is really sure what they are. Throughout many portions of what was once the Roman Empire there have been found over 100 small bronze objects measuring around 2 to 5 inches across and with a unique shape of 12 flat pentagonal faces with holes and knobs upon them. While many examples of these artifacts have been found, and they are most certainly Roman in origin, the problem is no one has the slightest idea of what they were used for. There are no known written records or design plans for them, and these “dodecahedrons” have been speculated as being everything from navigational tools, to zodiac instruments, to astronomy tools, knitting instruments, calendars, candlestick holders or even children’s toys. Your guess is as good as anyone’s, and although there are many of these objects and they seem to have been rather common they will likely nevertheless remain an impenetrable mystery.
A Roman dodecahedron
Not all enigmatic historical objects are so old, and there have been a few such oddities in more recent times as well. In 1968 a building in Chicago, Illinois, in the United States was being renovated when a wall was torn down to reveal hiding behind it a brand new looking World War I era motorcycle with a distinctive design no one had ever seen before. It had a unique engine design not seen in any other motorcycle of the time, an innovative and one-of-a-kind brake system, had specially made parts not found in any other motorcycle then or since, and overall it was far more advanced than anything else of its era. It also still ran smoothly and seemed none the worse for wear after decades hidden away forgotten behind a wall. Most oddly of all, the one-of-a-kind bike had the word “Traub” written upon it, its meaning just as cryptic as anything else about it.
When the first owners of the building were tracked down they were able to shed a bit of light on the mystery, saying that their son had stolen the motorcycle and hidden it behind the wall before leaving to fight overseas during the war, but this did little to explain where it came from in the first place or who built it. The mysterious motorcycle has since become part of the collection of the Wheels Through Time Museum, and to this day there has not been found any other example of this bike and its design, nor any other parts for it, no one knows who made it, and it remains a cipher.
The Traub Motorcycle
Even more recently was an unusual find made in 2014 by rangers at the Great Basin National Park, in Nevada. As they were patrolling a rather remote area of the park they found a tree in the middle of nowhere that had leaning against it a very old looking rifle, just neatly propped up and abandoned out there in the wilderness. It was soon found that the rifle was an antique Model 1873 Winchester rifle that had been manufactured between the years of 1873 and 1919, and which would have been considered a valuable heirloom. It was also in very good condition, and even now no one can figure out why anyone would just leave this old-fashioned antique weapon out there against that tree. Was it left there by some pioneer, gold prospector, or hunter from the 19th century? Was it put out there by a gun collector for reasons we will never know? Was it left behind by a time traveler? Who knows? The gun sits in a museum with no known owner.
Here we have looked at just a sampling of odd and unusual historical objects that have managed to evade understanding either by being out of place, coming out of nowhere, or being just plain weird. It is interesting to think that for as much as we think we like to know about history and for as much progress we have made in chronicling it there can still be these oddities that pop up from time to time to challenge our perceptions and serve as frustrating riddles we may never solve. It certainly seems that history is far from fully illuminated, and hiding out there in the nooks, crannies, and shadows are plenty of anomalies that manage to stay obscured in the mists of time, teasing us from the recesses of past eras.
Here’s one really interesting footage that was filmed over Albufeira in Portugal. This was recorded on 13th August 2017 but it was just published online now,
Witness report:
Two big balls flying by with different speeds
I was walking the dog, and when I looked back to call him, I saw this two big balls flying by. They have different speed. It was really weird… I stopped the video to take a picture. It’s not so good one… I thought immediately it was an UFO, I am near the Faro Airport and know exactly how are the planes and helicopters. When I get home I showed the video to everyone and everyone says it was really very weird. I tried to get some answers online in portuguese, and nobody could explain anything, or others didn’t even respond my emails. Someone gave me this website to report it, but I didn’t do it for a long long time, just because I don’t understand some of this questionary. Recorded with Samsung Galaxy S5
