Kan een afbeelding zijn van hond

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

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

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

    Dr. Kevin Knuth – UFOs, Science, and Relativistic Interstellar Travel – March 26, 2019

    Dr. Kevin Knuth is an Associate Professor in the Department of Physics at the University at Albany (SUNY), and is the Editor-in-Chief of the journal Entropy (MDPI). He is a former NASA research scientist having worked for four years at NASA Ames Research Center in the Intelligent Systems Division designing artificial intelligence algorithms for astrophysical data analysis. His current research interests include the foundations of physics, quantum information, inference and inquiry, autonomous robotics, and the search for and characterization of extrasolar planets. He has published over 90 peer-reviewed publications and has been invited to give over 80 presentations in 14 countries.

    Kevin was also a recent presenter at the Anomalous Aerospace Phenomena Conference (AAPC) hosted by the Scientific Coalition for Ufology (SCU) held near the Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, Alabama. Kevin’s talk was titled, “Constraints on Societies Engaged in Relativistic Interstellar Travel,” and covered the odd spacetime effects this sort of travel would entail. In this episode, Kevin discusses the effects individuals traveling in this manner would experience, and the odd effects and problems that would occur with a group traveling in this manner interacting with others. We also discuss Kevin’s experience and thoughts on how the scientific community views the UFO topic.

    George Knapp: Australia's Classified and Unseen Alien Files

    COAST TO COAST AM. An Australian researcher who focuses on government involvement in response to the UFO phenomena, Paul Dean, began tackling the problem directly and became instrumental in having the Australian government release hitherto classified and unseen files.

    He joined George Knapp to discuss his latest UFO case analyses, and the preservation of UFO-related records. “I’ve got absolutely no doubt that there has to be hundreds and hundreds of thousands of pages of UFO reports, evaluations, investigations, memos, commander’s briefs, point papers, discussion pieces, etc.” existing in the bellows of the US government, he remarked, likely kept in a variety of places and agencies including NORAD (North American Aerospace Defense Command).

    Australia’s UFO Files – Your Need to Know

    The next episode in our series is Australia’s UFO Files. The National Archives of Australia holds a number of records relating to UFOs, flying saucers and other unidentified aerial phenomena. The documents became available in August 2012 under Australia’s 30-year rule. This rule orders the release of government documents 30 years after they were created. Most of these records date from the 1950’s to the 70’s, when public interest in UFOs was high and many sightings were reported to Commonwealth authorities.

    Controlled Disclosure and Rebranding UFOs 'The Big Picture'

    We are in an era of tightening censorship and deplatforming of ideas that are unwelcome to the corporations and power elite at the top of our social and political hierarchy.


    At the same time, the UFO subject continues to slip out, more and more, into our public discourse.

    What is the result?

    Richard Dolan argues that "disclosure" of UFOs is happening, albeit within a controlled setting, and of course lots of spin.

    Giant UFO Over Lake Erie Near Toledo, Ohio Recorded By Driver, Dec 2018, Video, UFO Sighting News.


    Date of sighting: December 2018
    Location of sighting: Lake Erie, Toledo, Ohio, USA
    Source: 

    A father and son were driving near Toledo, Ohio, along the shore of Lake Erie, last Christmas, when they saw a huge object floating above the surface. They stopped and the father decided to record it on video. At first it looks like a cloud, but if you look more closely you can see how the object is symmetrical, showing a shape similar to a classic "flying saucer" or a cigar type UFO. 

    The UFO probably just came up from out of the water. I believe that the ocean has many underwater bases below its ocean floor and this is 100% proof that such base do exist. The UFO is just waiting to get most of the water off of it before it cloaks. If the water is still on the craft, it cannot cloak properly.

    Source: 
    Aliens love South America. Why? So many ancient Aztec, Mayan and Inca pyramid sites. All of which worshiped the aliens as gods in one way or another. Numerous eyewitnesses have seen UFOs flying in and out of volcanos and mountain areas in South America. They also get a lot of cover from having an underground base in a difficult to reach location...like the Amazon jungle. 

    Have UFO sightings declined in the last few years? No, not by any means. Its just that most people have their heads buried in their computers and phones, so they just look up less and less frequently. 

    Scott C. Waring

    News states: 
    A trip to the Tatacoa Desert, became for all the members of the Colorado Acuña family a unique experience for apparently having sighted what in their opinion is a UFO. According to Marcela Acuña López, the event that has shocked the family occurred after five in the afternoon when, after a long tourist day with her brother who resides in Bogotá, they get ready to return to Neiva. According to Marcela, at the time of her sister-in-law to make a photographic record of the sunset in the desert and from the vehicle in motion, the camera captures what according to her and her sister-in-law is a UFO (Unidentified Flying Object).

    In the image that was provided by Marcela Acuña, it is clearly seen how a strange element quickly crosses the horizon driven apparently by two turbines. The family has indicated that they expect to contact experts in this field to provide the photographs and that they may or may not determine if it was a UFO.

    Actual Shape Of The First Black Hole Ever Photographed, April 11. 2019, UFO Sighting News.




    Date of discovery: April 10, 2019
    Location of discovery: Galaxy M87
    NASA source: 

    When NASA announced that they took the first ever photograph of a black hole, I knew I had to look into it more deeply. I noticed that the black hold had an inner and outer walls. 

    The inner was is round with a dark abis bottom, while the closer part of the inner wall is full of torn up glowing material its pulling it. 


    The outer wall is dark so we can't see it. So I added light to the photograph and quickly noticed that the outer wall was visible and was not a circle after all. The outer area was irregular shaped with parts of it stretching out like arms. If I had to describe its shape, I would have say it looks closest to a stingray without its tail. I also notice that its left and right side almost match, meaning there is some kind of balance system at play here. 


    If a ship were to enter the black hole, it would have to pass through the red outer odd shaped wall. Once a ship enters the yellow area of the photo, it has passed what astrophysics calls the Schwarschild radius. That means the ship has passed the point of no return. No amount of force could escape after this point. 


    Also another exciting thing is that The Schwarzschild radius also called the gravitational radius, is a physical parameter that shows up in the Schwarzschild solution to Einstein's field equations, corresponding to the radius defining the event horizon of a Schwarzschild black hole. This photo reinforces Einsteins theory.

    CHINESE SCIENTISTS GENE-HACKED SUPER SMART HUMAN-MONKEY HYBRIDS

    ALEXA’S PHOTOS VIA PIXABAY/TAG HARTMAN-SIMKINS

    Big Brain

    For the first time, scientists have used gene-editing techniques to make monkey brains more humanlike.

    The monkeys, rhesus macaques, got smarter — they had superior memories to unaltered monkeys, according to recently-published research that’s kicked off a fiery debate among ethicists about how far scientists should be able to take genetic experimentation.

    Cognitive Gap

    The team of Chinese scientists edited the human version of a gene called MCPH1 into the macaques. The new gene made the monkeys’ brains develop along a more human-like timeline. The gene-hacked monkeys had better reaction times and enhanced short-term memories compared to their unaltered peers, according to China Daily.

    But not everyone is on board.

    “The use of transgenic monkeys to study human genes linked to brain evolution is a very risky road to take,” University of Colorado geneticist James Sikela told the MIT Technology Review. “It is a classic slippery slope issue and one that we can expect to recur as this type of research is pursued.”

    Evolutionary Roadmap

    Pinpointing the gene’s role in intelligence could help scientists understand how humans evolved to be so smart, MIT Tech reports.

    While altering one gene to enhance memory in some macaques won’t throw Darwinism off-kilter — there’s no risk of a “Planet of the Apes”-style uprising, yet — it could teach us how humanity became so intelligent and gives us hints as to why.

    Black Hole Photographed — What Do Black Hole Deniers Do Now?

    Black holes are the most mysterious objects in the universe. We have seen what we thought was unseeable. We have taken a picture of a black hole.

    Sheperd Doeleman, director Event Horizon telescope (EHT) — a network of eight radio telescopes spanning the globe that captured the image – revealed the photograph on April 10 at a press conference loaded with top scientists and astronomers waiting to view the definitive proof of what they have all believed on faith, indicators and scientific models – that black holes exist.

    Or do they?

    Wait, you say … didn’t you see the photograph? Sure, but there are tens of thousands of photographs of the Earth from outer space showing that it’s a globe. Do any of them convince the Flat Earthers?

    “This work investigates the backreaction of Hawking radiation on the interior of a gravitationally collapsing star, in a Hartle–Hawking initial vacuum. It shows that due to the negative energy Hawking radiation in the interior, the collapse of the star stops at a finite radius, before the singularity and the event horizon of a black hole have a chance to form. That is, the star bounces instead of collapsing to a black hole.”

    What do we do with all of these ‘artist depictions’ now?

    Meet Laura Mersini-Houghton, author of “Backreaction of Hawking radiation on a gravitationally collapsing star I: Black holes?”, a paper she wrote in 2014 in which she used two seemingly conflicting theories to seemingly prove that black holes don’t exist because they can’t possibly come into being in the first place. Mersini-Houghton is a physics professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. A press release by the college titled “Carolina’s Laura Mersini-Houghton shows that black holes do not exist” gives a simple explanation, referencing Stephen Hawking in an attempt to validate it.

    “She and Hawking both agree that as a star collapses under its own gravity, it produces Hawking radiation. However, in her new work, Mersini-Houghton shows that by giving off this radiation, the star also sheds mass. So much so that as it shrinks it no longer has the density to become a black hole. Before a black hole can form, the dying star swells one last time and then explodes. A singularity never forms and neither does an event horizon. The take home message of her work is clear: there is no such thing as a black hole.”

    There you have it. Needless to say, black hole believers reacted strongly against the paper. In 1974, Stephen Hawking proposed that a black hole temporarily entraps matter and energy that can eventually reemerge as outgoing radiation — Hawking Radiation. Most responses to Mersini-Houghton’s paper centered on the idea that a black hole doesn’t emit enough Hawking Radiation to shrink its mass down to Mersini-Houghton’s level which would prevent a black hole from forming.

    Close but no cigar.

    Mersini-Houghton was not the only black hole denier (No Black Holer?), just the latest and most famous. All had one last fall-back position – if black holes exist, why isn’t there a photograph of one. Well, now there is and there are sure to be more. As of this writing, there’s been no comment on the photo by Mersini-Houghton.

    What do you think? Did the photo of Earth from the moon 50 years ago convince Flat Earthers?

    I was right!

    UFO sighting: 'Black triangle UFO' over London used cloaking device - ‘We were SHOCKED'

    A BRITISH UFO eyewitness was “shocked” to see a triangular alien spaceship use a cloaking device over London, according to an unexplained UFO sighting report.

    The alleged  spaceship passed over the British capital in the late night hours of May 1, 2018. The eyewitness who claims to have seen the UFO with his wife said the spaceship appeared overhead around 11.30pm in the evening. According to the witness’ testimony, the UFO was black and triangular, with round lights on each of its corners and moved through the sky silently. The UFO also “shimmered” and “glitched” as if engaging or disengaging some form of cloaking technology.

    The astonishing UFO sighting was reported by the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), which investigates extraterrestrial aircraft claims from around the globe.

    MUFON report 92298, dated April 5, 2019, was examined by field investigator Karl Webb, who concluded the supposed UFO was an “Unknown Aerial Vehicle”.

    In the report, the witness said he was having a cigarette in his backyard with his wife on the night of the sighting.

    The witness’ testimony reads: “Jupiter was very low in the sky and we were wondering what it was? We got out my phone and used the Skyview app to work it out.

    “We both commented on the fact that we hadn't ever remembered seeing Jupiter or if we had, we didn't know that’s what it was.

    “London skies are always full of passenger aircraft coming into land at Heathrow and we are on one of the flight paths they use.

    “The planes come in from the east over our house and then head out west before they turn north towards Heathrow airport. You can always hear them.

    “This black triangle object with round lights on each of its three corners and one central light that was reddish orange in colour appeared in the west.”

    The witnesses then said the UFO was roughly between two to three times the size of an Airbus A380 passenger jet.

    It was like watching a silent fiction movie or one of those UFO TV shows, but real life

    MUFON UFO report 92298

    The UFO passed overhead in “one fluid motion” without making a single sight, and crossed from the rest horizon to the northeast in about 10 seconds.

    The witness said: “We both watched this object come in and pass right over us both. We both knew exactly what we had both seen.

    “It was like watching a silent fiction movie or one of those UFO TV shows, but real life”

    According to the witness, the spacecraft was “clearly a solid structure” but shimmered in the sky like a “digital glitch”.

    The UFO group, which investigated the supposed spaceship sighting, claims to employ the scientific method when it sifted through thousands of user-submitted reports.

    According to MUFON, only about two to three percent of all UFO reports remain “truly unexplained”.

    The scientific conclusion, MUFON said, is there are unexplained mysteries in the skies worthy of further scientific investigation.

    MUFON said: “In the reporting and investigation of UFO sightings, MUFON strives to use the scientific method.

    “Data is collected through online reports that identify specific information that can be used to make reports as accurate as possible.

    “Among the parameters collected on UFO reports include: date, time, latitude, longitude, witness report, witness background and age, UFO colour/shape/brightness, and directional information.

    “A MUFON Field Investigator then interviews the witnesses who made the report and collects additional information such as angular size, elevation, azimuth, brightness, if possible the distance to the object, and other measurable information.

    “The Field Investigator looks for the possibility that the witness misinterpreted what was seen.”

     Voor de Turkse kust hebben duikers een scheepswrak teruggevonden dat 3.600 jaar oud zou zijn. Het schip, dat veertien meter lang is, ligt vol met schelpen en planten. Archeologen spreken van een grote doorbraak.

    Het schip zou in 1600 voor Christus onderweg geweest zijn naar het Griekse eiland Kreta, maar gezonken zijn in een storm. Het werd teruggevonden door een gespecialiseerd onderzoeksteam van de Universiteit van Antalya, in het zuiden van Turkije.

    Is There Wine on Mars? The Answer May Soon Be “Yes”

    “Georgians were the first winemakers on Earth and now we hope to pioneer viticulture on the planet next door.

    It’s often said that real progress in a new technology isn’t made until someone starts using it for sex or getting high. That seems to be the case in the quest to be ready to grow plants on Mars as soon as humans first step onto the red soil. Yes, I know, some of you believe humans are already there – but do they have booze? A group of researchers in the country of Georgia, which prides itself on being the birthplace of wine-making, is planting the seeds to become the first to grow grapes and make wine on another planet. And yes, they’re planning for more than just reds.

    “In the distant future, Martian colonists will be able to grow plants directly in Martian soil.”

    The IX Millennium project (named for the 8,000 years Georgia has been making wine) was founded in January 2019 by Nikoloz Doborjginidze to lead the way to wine on Mars. The Independent reports this week that in just three short months, astrobiologist Marika Tarasashvili, has developed a composting bacteria that will turn Martian dirt into fertile Earth-like soil. Working in a lab in Tbilisi, she’s using bacteria collected from “extreme ecosystems” (no, not gas station restrooms, but that’s a good backup plan) like hot sulphurous springs and breeding it to ingest Mars and excrete earth.

    “But first we need to create a model of completely controlled sustainable Martian greenhouses.”

    Tusia Garibashvili is the founder of Space Farms company, which is now building a vertical farming laboratory with tightly controlled temperature, atmosphere and radiation conditions that will simulate the Martian environment … on the inside. On the outside will be a luxury hotel in Tbilisi that will house the laboratory — who says scientists have to live like lab rats?

    Meanwhile, a second part of IX Millennium is working at the Business and Technology University testing various Georgian grape varieties in a simulated Martian environment. So far they’ve determined that pale-skinned Rkatsiteli grapes — an ancient and versatile white wine variety that dates back to 3000 BCE – grows best under harsh Mars-like ultra-violet rays.

    Rkatsiteli grapes

    Is the faux Rkatsiteli wine any good? The researchers at IX Millennium aren’t ready to answer that and are planning to test many more barrels of Martian whites and reds until the first Mars mission is ready … so they have plenty of time. Of course, they also have a noble cause to use as a front for all of that wine-tasting, according to Business and Technology University Dean Nino Enukidze.

    “Martian dreams aside, our experiments are providing information that is vital as humanity confronts a multitude of environmental challenges. We will be able to identify and breed food crops resistant to the problems caused by global climate change.”

    That’s right … the solution to climate change could come from drinking Martian wine made from Georgian grapes.

    As Matt Damon might say, it beats growing potatoes

    Humanoid encounter reported to 911

    Man Calls 911 to Report “7-8 Feet Tall” Humanoid With Wings and Bright Green Eyes

    Oh boy, there’s something strange afoot in middle America. Recently, reports of bizarre flying humanoid creatures have ramped up in the states surrounding the Great Lakes, both current sightings and, as a consequence of the increased attention, reports of past sightings as well. As I’ve written in the past few months, there’s only one paranormal creature that fits the bill. It’s fair to say that Mothman is back in a big way, and he’s as spooky as ever.

    Perhaps I’m getting over-excited, maybe Mothman is just hanging out in a tree somewhere eating donuts,  not scaring anybody. Maybe this is Butterflyman. I don’t know. Maybe this is just what you see when you’ve been up for three days reading about Mothman on the internet. Who can say, really?

    Regardless, we can say that a man from Woodstock, Illinois did call 911 to report a freakishly tall winged humanoid with glowing green eyes, that apparently charged at him, screaming, while he was trying to leave a convenience store.

    Mothman

    He sure is a persistent fellow.

    The investigators at Singular Fortean were alerted to the case by the man himself. He sent them an account of his ordeal, which allegedly occurred on February 28, and asked for their investigative help. He compared it to a sighting that was previously reported in Woodstock, Illinois. Here’s the account of the incident sent to Singular Fortean:

    I was outside Jewel Osco in Woodstock, Illinois and believe to [have seen] the same visual of an unusual being in the McHenry County fairground. It screeched at me then charged the fence, about thirty feet from the fence, it had very bright green eyes, [and] had wings and was all black leathery colored. It ran back towards the woods in the McHenry County fairgrounds. I called [the Woodstock police department] and [they] had county sheriffs respond to the location.

    According to Singular Fortean, investigator Tobias Wayland called the witness at a predetermined time agreed upon by the witness, but was forced to leave a voicemail. The witness has not responded.

    So it’s all nonsense, right? Well that’s where the 911 call comes in. Singular Fortean filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request with the Woodstock police department for all pertinent information and they received a transcript of the 911 call that the unnamed man made to the police department.

    The transcript states that on February 28, 2019, an officer did respond to the Jewel Osco parking lot after the call was made:

    “[The witness] had a sighting of a mysterious creature described as being 7-8 ft tall and wearing all black. [The witness] said the creature charged at him from the fair grounds screeching at him while he was in the Jewel lot and then it retreated. [The witness] named the creature the ‘Dufield Pond Swamp Monster,’ since he had the first sighting with police involvement. Investigation to continue.”

    911 transcript

    The 911 transcript via Singular Fortean

    According to Singular Fortean, the McHenry County Fairgrounds are directly opposite the Dufield Pond Conservation Area, a thickly wooded area comprised of forest and parks. Another witness had reported seeing a large winged humanoid with dark fur emerge from the Dufield Pond Conservation Area on February 22.

    This is the latest in a series of bizarre sightings that have occurred in the states surrounding the Great Lakes. According to Singular Fortean, every state surrounding Lake Michigan has had reports of winged humanoid creatures. They write:

    Witnesses consistently describe a large, gray-or-black bat or bird-like creature—although in a small number of cases the creature was described as insect-like—sometimes with glowing or reflective red, yellow, or orange eyes; and humanoid features such as arms and legs are often reported.  Many of the sightings are also of something seen only briefly or are described only as a flying creature with few details, which leaves open the possibility that a large bird or bird-like being could explain some encounters.

    They ask that any witnesses report their experience to them via their contact page. And if you have seen Mothman, please do report it. Because real or imagined, this is an absolutely fascinating modern paranormal legend.

    Turkish Researchers Discover What Could Be The World’s Oldest Shipwreck

    Turkish archaeologists discover world's 'oldest' Bronze Age shipwreck off Antalya coast

    A team of Turkish underwater researchers have discovered what they believe is the world’s oldest shipwreck from 1600 B.C. According to the Provincial Governor’s Office, the 3,600-year-old Bronze Age shipwreck was found off the shores of the Antalya province in southern Turkey.

    The shipwreck in Urla, Turkey

    The shipwreck was discovered near Urla, Turkey. 

    Image source .

    Members of the Antalya University’s Underwater Research Department discovered the 14-meter-long (or 46 feet) merchant ship with 1.5 tons of copper bullion inside.

    Governor Münir Karaloğlu told reporters that the discovery of the shipwreck, called “Western Antalya Shipwreck” was groundbreaking for underwater archaeology and described it as the “Göbeklitepe” of the underwater world. The archaeological site of Göbeklitepe located in Şanlıurfa has the world’s oldest temple and is quite often referenced to as the ground zero of human history.

    He also mentioned that the items that will be taken from the shipwreck will be put on display at a museum in Kemer district which will be known as “the epicenter of underwater archaeology.”

    The researchers took three-dimensional scans of the bullion on the ship by using sonar surveys, photo-scans, and photographic mosaic. They were able to determine that the bullion were taken from mines in Cyprus, and then molded in the 15th or 16thcenturies B.C. before being put on the ship to transport them either to the Aegean region or the island of Crete. The ship didn’t make its destination as it sank from what they believe was a storm.

    Hakan Öniz, who is one of the researchers from Antalya University, stated, “It was probably caught in the middle of a storm while traveling to the Aegean [northwest of Antalya] region from Cyprus [island south of Antalya]. It was carrying a cargo of copper bullion and type of the bullion helped us date the ship. This may well be the world’s earliest vessel carrying industrial goods.” He then said that a new team with local and international researchers will come together for a five-year project in order to conduct more research on the shipwreck.

    Prior to this recent discovery, the “Uluburun Shipwreck” that dates back to 1400 B.C. was located off the shores of Antalya and was the oldest shipwreck of its kind until now. The items found on the ship are currently being displayed at the Museum of Underwater Archaeology located in the Muğla’s Bodrum district.

    Illustration for article titled Discovery Of 4,000-Year-Old Shipwreck Could Be World's Oldest

    A recent underwater excavation at Turkey's Urla Port has uncovered a ship estimated to date back 4,000 years, which experts say would make it the oldest sunken ship to have ever been discovered in the Mediterranean — and possibly anywhere.

    And just last year, the remains of a Greek merchant ship was discovered off of Bulgaria’s Black Sea coast. The shipwreck was from over 2,400 years ago and was said to be the world’s oldest known intact shipwreck…until now.

    Huge mystery object at the heart of our galaxy that is 13 TIMES the size of Jupiter baffles experts who have no idea if it is a planet or a star

    • Experts used Nasa's Spitzer Space Telescope and microlensing to find the object
    • They are unsure if OGLE-2016-BLG-1190Lb, as it is known, is even a planet
    • Its mass puts it at the conventional boundary between planets and brown dwarfs
    • It orbits its yellow dwarf parent star approximately once every three years

    Astronomers have discovered a massive alien world circling a star located 22,000 light years away, at the centre of the Milky Way's bulge.

    The object, dubbed OGLE-2016-BLG-1190Lb, is 13 times the size of Jupiter and is so vast that experts are unsure whether it is even a planet.

    Experts used Nasa's Spitzer Space Telescope and the light-warping effects of gravity to uncover the mysterious celestial body.

    Although it is orbiting its own star, researchers say 'Planet X' may in fact be a failed star, known as a brown dwarf.

    BROWN DWARFS 

    Brown dwarfs are thought to be the missing link between planets and stars, with masses up to 80 times that of Jupiter. 

    But their centres are not hot or dense enough to generate energy through nuclear fusion the way stars do.

    OGLE-2016-BLG-1190Lb's mass puts it right at the deuterium burning limit, the conventional boundary between planets and brown dwarfs. 

    Scientists have found that, for stars roughly the mass of our sun, less than one per cent have a brown dwarf orbiting within three AU.

    One AU is the distance between Earth and the sun. This phenomenon is called the 'brown dwarf desert.'

    OGLE-2016-BLG-1190Lb orbits its parent star approximately every three years at a distance of about two AU. 

    The host is a yellow dwarf star, similar to our own Sun, that has 89 per cent of its mass. 

    An international team of researchers, led by Yoon-Hyun Ryu of the Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute in Daejon, South Korea, reported the find in a paper published on the online print repository Arxiv.org.

    It was made using a technique known as microlensing, that facilitates the discovery of distant objects by using background stars as flashlights.

    OGLE-2016-BLG-1190Lb was discovered in June 2016 by the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE) collaboration.

    OGLE is a Polish astronomical project based at the University of Warsaw, which is searching the universe for dark matter and extrasolar planets. 

    It uses the five foot (1.3 metre) Warsaw telescope mounted at the Las Campanas observatory in Chile.

    The team used readings taken from Nasa's Spitzer space telescope which has uncovered a number of microlensing events, to narrow their search.

    Writing in the paper, its authors said: ‘We report the discovery of OGLE-2016-BLG-1190Lb, which is likely to be the first Spitzer microlensing planet in the galactic bulge/bar.

    'It is precisely measured to be right at the edge of the brown dwarf desert. 

    ‘This is somewhere between 13 and 14 Jupiter masses. OGLE-2016-BLG-1190Lb has about 13.4 Jupiter masses.

    'Since the existence of the brown dwarf desert is the signature of different formation mechanisms for stars and planets, the extremely close proximity of OGLE-2016-BLG-1190Lb to this desert raises the question of whether it is truly a "planet".' 

    Brown dwarfs are thought to be the missing link between planets and stars, with masses up to 80 times that of Jupiter.

    OGLE-2016-BLG-1190Lb orbits its parent star approximately every three years at a distance of about two AU. 

    WHAT IS MICROLENSING? 

    Microlensing is a technique that facilitates the discovery of distant objects by using background stars as flashlights. 

    When a star crosses precisely in front of a bright star in the background, the gravity of the foreground star focuses the light of the background star, making it appear brighter. 

    A planet orbiting the foreground object may cause an additional blip in the star's brightness.

    This technique has found the most distant known exoplanets from Earth, and can detect low-mass planets that are substantially farther from their stars than Earth is from our sun.

    The host is a yellow dwarf star, similar to our own Sun, that has 89 per cent of its mass. 

    The newly discovered planet aids scientists in their quest to figure out the distribution of planets in our galaxy.

    Astronomers still don't know whether there is a difference in the frequency of planets in the Milky Way's central bulge compared to its disk, the pancake-like region surrounding the bulge.

    OGLE-2016-BLG-1190Lb is located in the disk, as are three planets previously detected through microlensing by Nasa's Spitzer Space Telescope.

    Russian Soviet UFO Disclosure Cases

    The history of UFOs and encounters with other-worldly beings includes events from all over the world. Russia — formerly the Soviet Union — has a major part of that history. Its story is dramatic, at times chilling, and always provocative.

    Richard Dolan is one of the world’s leading researchers and writers on the subject of UFOs and believes that they constitute the greatest mystery of our time. He is the author of two volumes of history, UFOs and the National Security State, both ground-breaking works which together provide the most factually complete and accessible narrative of the UFO subject available anywhere.

    He also co-authored a speculative book about the future, A.D. After Disclosure, the first-ever analysis not only of how UFO secrecy might end, but of the all-important question: what happens next?

    An international team of over 200 astronomers, including scientists from MIT’s Haystack Observatory, has captured the first direct images of a black hole. They accomplished this remarkable feat by coordinating the power of eight major radio observatories on four continents, to work together as a virtual, Earth-sized telescope.

    In a series of papers published today in a special issue of Astrophysical Journal Letters, the team has revealed four images of the supermassive black hole at the heart of Messier 87, or M87, a galaxy within the Virgo galaxy cluster, 55 million light years from Earth.

    All four images show a central dark region surrounded by a ring of light that appears lopsided — brighter on one side than the other.

    Albert Einstein, in his theory of general relativity, predicted the existence of black holes, in the form of infinitely dense, compact regions in space, where gravity is so extreme that nothing, not even light, can escape from within. By definition, black holes are invisible. But if a black hole is surrounded by light-emitting material such as plasma, Einstein’s equations predict that some of this material should create a “shadow,” or an outline of the black hole and its boundary, also known as its event horizon.

    Based on the new images of M87, the scientists believe they are seeing a black hole’s shadow for the first time, in the form of the dark region at the center of each image.

    Relativity predicts that the immense gravitational field will cause light to bend around the black hole, forming a bright ring around its silhouette, and will also cause the surrounding material to orbit around the object at close to light speed. The bright, lopsided ring in the new images offers visual confirmation of these effects: The material headed toward our vantage point as it rotates around appears brighter than the other side.

    From these images, theorists and modelers on the team have determined that the black hole is about 6.5 billion times as massive as our sun. Slight differences between each of the four images suggest that material is zipping around the black hole at lightning speed.

    “This black hole is much bigger than the orbit of Neptune, and Neptune takes 200 years to go around the sun,” says Geoffrey Crew, a research scientist at Haystack Observatory. “With the M87 black hole being so massive, an orbiting planet would go around it within a week and be traveling at close to the speed of light.”

    “People tend to view the sky as something static, that things don’t change in the heavens, or if they do, it’s on timescales that are longer than a human lifetime,” says Vincent Fish, a research scientist at Haystack Observatory. “But what we find for M87 is, at the very fine detail we have, objects change on the timescale of days. In the future, we can perhaps produce movies of these sources. Today we’re seeing the starting frames.”

    “These remarkable new images of the M87 black hole prove that Einstein was right yet again,” says Maria Zuber, MIT’s vice president for research and the E.A. Griswold Professor of Geophysics in the Department of Earth, Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences. “The discovery was enabled by advances in digital systems at which Haystack engineers have long excelled.”

    “Nature was kind”

    The images were taken by the Event Horizon Telescope, or EHT, a planet-scale array comprising eight radio telescopes, each in a remote, high-altitude environment, including the mountaintops of Hawaii, Spain’s Sierra Nevada, the Chilean desert, and the Antarctic ice sheet.

    The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) is a global network of radio telescopes that work together as one virtual, Earth-sized telescope, with a resolution sharp enough to “see” a black hole’s shadow.

    On any given day, each telescope operates independently, observing astrophysical objects that emit faint radio waves. However, a black hole is infinitely smaller and darker than any other radio source in the sky. To see it clearly, astronomers need to use very short wavelengths — in this case, 1.3 millimeters — that can cut through the clouds of material between a black hole and the Earth.

    Making a picture of a black hole also requires a magnification, or “angular resolution,” equivalent to reading a text on a phone in New York from a sidewalk café in Paris. A telescope’s angular resolution increases with the size of its receiving dish. However, even the largest radio telescopes on Earth are nowhere near big enough to see a black hole.

    But when multiple radio telescopes, separated by very large distances, are synchronized and focused on a single source in the sky, they can operate as one very large radio dish, through a technique known as very long baseline interferometry, or VLBI. Their combined angular resolution as a result can be vastly improved.

    For EHT, the eight participating telescopes summed up to a virtual radio dish as big as the Earth, with the ability to resolve an object down to 20 micro-arcseconds — about 3 million times sharper than 20/20 vision. By a happy coincidence, that’s about the precision required to view a black hole, according to Einstein’s equations.

    “Nature was kind to us, and gave us something just big enough to see by using state-of-the-art equipment and techniques,” says Crew, co-leader of the EHT correlation working group and the ALMA Observatory VLBI team.

    “Gobs of data”

    On April 5, 2017, the EHT began observing M87. After consulting numerous weather forecasts, astronomers identified four nights that would produce clear conditions for all eight observatories — a rare opportunity, during which they could work as one collective dish to observe the black hole.

    In radio astronomy, telescopes detect radio waves, at frequencies that register incoming photons as a wave, with an amplitude and phase that’s measured as a voltage. As they observed M87, every telescope took in streams of data in the form of voltages, represented as digital numbers.

    The MIT Haystack Observatory houses a specialized supercomputer called a correlator, which crunched data generated by the EHT project.

    “We’re recording gobs of data — petabytes of data for each station,” Crew says.

    In total, each telescope took in about one petabyte of data, equal to 1 million gigabytes. Each station recorded this enormous influx that onto several Mark6 units — ultrafast data recorders that were originally developed at Haystack Observatory.

    After the observing run ended, researchers at each station packed up the stack of hard drives and flew them via FedEx to Haystack Observatory, in Massachusetts, and Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy, in Germany. (Air transport was much faster than transmitting the data electronically.) At both locations, the data were played back into a highly specialized supercomputer called a correlator, which processed the data two streams at a time.

    As each telescope occupies a different location on the EHT’s virtual radio dish, it has a slightly different view of the object of interest — in this case, M87. The data received by two separate telescopes may encode a similar signal of the black hole but also contain noise that’s specific to the respective telescopes.

    The correlator lines up data from every possible pair of the EHT’s eight telescopes. From these comparisons, it mathematically weeds out the noise and picks out the black hole’s signal. High-precision atomic clocks installed at every telescope time-stamp incoming data, enabling analysts to match up data streams after the fact.

    “Precisely lining up the data streams and accounting for all kinds of subtle perturbations to the timing is one of the things that Haystack specializes in,” says Colin Lonsdale, Haystack director and vice chair of the EHT directing board.

    Teams at both Haystack and Max Planck then began the painstaking process of “correlating” the data, identifying a range of problems at the different telescopes, fixing them, and rerunning the correlation, until the data could be rigorously verified. Only then were the data released to four separate teams around the world, each tasked with generating an image from the data using independent techniques.

    “It was the second week of June, and I remember I didn’t sleep the night before the data was released, to be sure I was prepared,” says Kazunori Akiyama, co-leader of the EHT imaging group and a postdoc working at Haystack.

    All four imaging teams previously tested their algorithms on other astrophysical objects, making sure that their techniques would produce an accurate visual representation of the radio data. When the files were released, Akiyama and his colleagues immediately ran the data through their respective algorithms. Importantly, each team did so independently of the others, to avoid any group bias in the results.

    “The first image our group produced was slightly messy, but we saw this ring-like emission, and I was so excited at that moment,” Akiyama remembers. “But simultaneously I was worried that maybe I was the only person getting that black hole image.”

    His concern was short-lived. Soon afterward all four teams met at the Black Hole Initiative at Harvard University to compare images, and found, with some relief, and much cheering and applause, that they all produced the same, lopsided, ring-like structure — the first direct images of a black hole.

    “There have been ways to find signatures of black holes in astronomy, but this is the first time anyone’s ever taken a picture of one,” Crew says. “This is a watershed moment.”

    “A new era”

    The idea for the EHT was conceived in the early 2000s by Sheperd Doeleman, who was leading a pioneering VLBI program at Haystack Observatory and now directs the EHT project as an astronomer at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. At the time, Haystack engineers were developing the digital back-ends, recorders, and correlator that could process the enormous datastreams that an array of disparate telescopes would receive.

    “The concept of imaging a black hole has been around for decades,” Lonsdale says. “But it was really the development of modern digital systems that got people thinking about radio astronomy as a way of actually doing it. More telescopes on mountaintops were being built, and the realization gradually came along that, hey, [imaging a black hole] isn’t absolutely crazy.”

    In 2007, Doeleman’s team put the EHT concept to the test, installing Haystack’s recorders on three widely scattered radio telescopes and aiming them together at Sagittarius A*, the black hole at the center of our own galaxy.

    “We didn’t have enough dishes to make an image,” recalls Fish, co-leader of the EHT science operations working group. “But we could see there was something there that’s about the right size.”

    Today, the EHT has grown to an array of 11 observatories: ALMA, APEX, the Greenland Telescope, the IRAM 30-meter Telescope, the IRAM NOEMA Observatory, the Kitt Peak Telescope, the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope, the Large Millimeter Telescope Alfonso Serrano, the Submillimeter Array, the Submillimeter Telescope, and the South Pole Telescope.

    Coordinating observations and analysis has involved over 200 scientists from around the world who make up the EHT collaboration, with 13 main institutions, including Haystack Observatory. Key funding was provided by the National Science Foundation, the European Research Council, and funding agencies in East Asia, including the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science. The telescopes contributing to this result were ALMA, APEX, the IRAM 30-meter telescope, the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope, the Large Millimeter Telescope Alfonso Serrano, the Submillimeter Array, the Submillimeter Telescope, and the South Pole Telescope.

    More observatories are scheduled to join the EHT array, to sharpen the image of M87 as well as attempt to see through the dense material that lies between Earth and the center of our own galaxy, to the heart of Sagittarius A*.

    “We’ve demonstrated that the EHT is the observatory to see a black hole on an event horizon scale,” Akiyama says. “This is the dawn of a new era of black hole astrophysics.”

    The Haystack EHT team includes John Barrett, Roger Cappallo, Joseph Crowley, Mark Derome, Kevin Dudevoir, Michael Hecht, Lynn Matthews, Kotaro Moriyama, Michael Poirier, Alan Rogers, Chester Ruszczyk, Jason SooHoo, Don Sousa, Michael Titus, and Alan Whitney. Additional contributors were MIT alumni Daniel Palumbo, Katie Bouman, Lindy Blackburn, and Bill Freeman, a professor in MIT’s Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.

    Thanks to MrBB333 for his incredible videos which are such a great service to humanity…

    MrBB333 has a rather large research crew… namely, his subscribers and supporters who constantly send him videos of unusual happenings and weather…Folks… c’mon… there is evidence that things are not as they usually appear, and our star family is visiting us… there is a war in the heavens and if you are aware of chemtrails you know this.  

    For those who are ready and willing, and are holding the energy of soul love, you will be visited by our star family in one way or another… for others who think earth is all alone in the universe, and are not ready and are unwilling, they shall see nothing that will change their mind.

    Astronomers Find Evidence of a Planet with a Mass Almost 13 Times that of Jupiter

    In the past three decades, almost 4,000 planet-like objects have been discovered orbiting isolated stars outside the solar system (exoplanets).


    Beginning in 2011, it was possible to use NASA's Kepler Space Telescope to observe the first exoplanets in orbit around young binary systems of two live stars with hydrogen still burning in their core.

    According to physorg. brazilian astronomers have now found the first evidence of the existence of an exoplanet orbiting an older or more evolved binary in which one of the two stars is dead.

    The findings have just been published in the Astronomical Journal, published by the American Astronomical Society (AAS).
