Astronomer Photographs Edge Of "Huge Planet" Near The Earth, April 2019, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Astronomer Photographs Edge Of "Huge Planet" Near The Earth, April 2019, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: April 2019 Location of sighting: Budapest, Hungary Hungarian amateur and photographer astronomer Ivan Eder of Budapest was observing the moon when he suddenly noticed that a huge edge of a giant planet seemed to be revealing itself. The white edge appearing in the photos seemed to be that of giant plant revealing itself for a few seconds. Ivan couldn't find any rational explanation for the sudden appearance this giant crescent shape.
There are two explanations for such an occurrence. First the planet itself may be in another time line and is revealing itself due to a disturbance in the time line...like a black hole near it or possibly the inhabitants are experimenting with time travel. In other words, this could be earth from another time line we are looking at. I believe this theory to be true. The second possibility is that this is the ancient planet Nibiru whose orbit passes Earth once every 15,000 about. I hope its not Nibiru. The planet is said to have an incredibly ancient species on it that is using Earth as a experiment for studying stages of their own past. Every few orbits, drastic changes on earth are made. Species go extinct, and new species appear. That is why there are many gaps in the record of human evolution. As every scientist knows, scientific subjects like rats, dogs, cats used for testing, once finished, must be exterminated (killed), so that the lab experiment doesn't pollute other future experiments. Scott C. Waring-UFO researcher
The modern era of UFO sightings began in 1947 when Kenneth Arnold, a businessman and pilot from Idaho, spotted what he believed was a formation of flying saucers near Mount Rainier in Washington. Encounters with unidentified flying objects have been recorded since ancient times, but Arnold’s sighting hooked the American public. It was the encounter that launched a thousand theories.
The U.S. military attempted to discredit Arnold’s claims. “The report cannot bear even superficial examination, therefore, must be disregarded,” the Air Force Materiel Command wrote in a now-declassified document.
As reported sightings increased and UFO obssession spread like wildfire, its flames fanned by the notorious Roswell incident, the military attempted to douse the issue. A series of UFO studies commissioned by the U.S. Air Force culminated in Project Blue Book, which wrapped up in 1969 and found no evidence of the presence of extra terrestrial vehicles on Earth or in the skies above.
The Air Force clearly hoped to put an end to the UFO craze—but the studies had the opposite effect. Josef Allen Hynek, who had overseen the Air Force efforts, broke with the military, claiming the importance of UFOs had been underplayed. His scientific analysis forms much of the basis of modern UFOlogy and his close encounters classification system is the benchmark in grading the credibility of UFO sightings.
Experts warn that mundane explanations often exist for UFO sightings.
ISTOCK
In devising our own credibility rating system for UFO sightings, Newsweek built upon Hynek’s foundations. The astronomer and preeminent UFOlogist valued sightings that involved multiple or highly credible witnesses. We have also incorporated advances in technology into our scale. The advent of cameras and infrared devices on aircraft have presented new kinds of evidence for sightings.
The credibility scale works on a point-based system. One point is given for sightings with multiple witnesses, another for an expert witness (a pilot, air traffic controller, military or government official). One point is awarded for picture evidence and an additional point for film of a moving UFO. Unidentified flying objects can often be explained away as foreign aircraft, so an additional point is given for UFOs seen to be flying in a manner inconsistent with flight as humans know it.
Hynek also prized close encounters. Close encounters of the first kind—sightings of an object less than 500 feet away—are given one point. Close encounters of the second kind, a UFO event where a physical effect is felt (a car light breaks, extreme heat is felt, scorch marks on the ground), are given two points. Finally, close encounters of the third kind, instances where an animated pilot is seen, earn three points.
A system for removing points has also been incorporated to account for cases where military or government bodies have discredited the sightings. Three points are removed in these cases, as the baseline for credibility in the scale begins at three.

The list of sightings analyzed with the scale has been compiled with input from the Scientific Coalition for UFOlogy. The coalition, which was started in 2017, is composed of 45 UFOlogists. Most of them either have backgrounds in science, the military or law enforcement. The body’s members have 11 Ph.D.s between them; one member is from NASA and another is from the European Space Agency.
Some 6,000 UFO encounters are reported every year, says Robert Powell, an SCU board member. “Ninety-eight percent or more of sightings are basically misidentifications and they are airplanes or Chinese lanterns or a variety of different things,” Powell told Newsweek. “What's left is cases where there is a lot of good information and you have some possibility of trying to discuss it in detail.
“In order to be on here someone needed to do work to investigate the case. If no report or investigation was done then it is hard to put a lot of stock in a case,” he added.
Experts warn that mundane explanations often exist for UFO sightings. Because encounters are unexplained does not mean that the event has extraterrestrial origins. “The overwhelming majority (typically more than 90 percent of these ‘sightings’) can be explained as due to prosaic, terrestrial phenomena,” Seth Shostak, Senior astronomer and institute Fellow at the SETI Institute told Newsweek via email. “Could the rest be alien craft? Maybe, but that’s like saying that the 40 percent of homicides committed in New York City that are unsolved could be due to alien murderers. Possible, but not likely.”
1. Roswell Incident
Over the years hundreds of witnesses have come forward claiming to have some connection with the Roswell UFO sighting.
ROSWELL DAILY RECORD
Location: Roswell, New Mexico - July 1947
Hundreds of witnesses have come forward claiming to have some connection with the Roswell UFO sighting. Books published from 1980 onwards have claimed an alien craft crash landed near a ranch in Roswell, New Mexico, with one or more dead extraterrestrial beings inside. The truth appears to be far more mundane. In 1997, the Air Force released a report on the 50th anniversary of the incident entitled: “Case Closed: Final Report on the Roswell Crash.” An article in The New York Times from the time read: “No bodies. No bulbous heads. No secret autopsies. No spaceship. No crash. No extraterrestrials or alien artifacts of any sort. And most emphatically of all, no government cover-up.”

Location:Mount Rainier, Washington - June 1947
Pilot Kenneth Arnold’s sighting of nine “circular-type” objects flying in formation at a speed judged to be more than twice the speed of sound gave birth to the modern notion of flying saucers. Reports from the Idaho pilot that he witnessed the strange craft while flying north of Mount Rainier were dismissed out of hand by an Air Force investigation. Until his death in 1984 Arnold maintained he had seen the UFOs. He told the Seattle Times in 1977: “I made my report because I thought it was my duty. It was the only proper and American thing to do. I saw what I saw.”

Location: Levelland, Texas - November 1957
Multiple witnesses reported seeing an egg-shaped object or a large flash of light moving across the sky in the small town of Levelland, Texas. One witness told police the passing object had interfered with the electronics in his car. The Associated Press reported at the time that a “mystery object” had flown around with a “great sound and rush of wind.” The sighting was later discredited by the Air Force’s Project Blue Book, which claimed the phenomenon had been caused by severe electrical storms and ball lightning.

4. Stephenville, Texas, UFO Sightings
Location: Stephenville, Texas - January 2008
Multiple witnesses in Stephenville, Texas, reported seeing inexplicable objects moving through the sky or bright lights. The episode created confusion when the nearby Naval Air Station Fort Worth Joint Reserve Base mistakenly said its planes had not been active on the nights in question. It later emerged that military aircraft had been training in the area, CNN reported.

NASA
Location: Mars - March 2019
To test the efficacy of our rating system we applied it to a sighting by UFOlogist Scott C. Waring, who claims to have spotted a UFO on Mars. His sighting was publicized in Britain’s Daily Expressnewspaper. Waring’s sighting is reliant on images beamed back from NASA’s Curiosity Rover. There have been no human witnesses to the case, expert or otherwise, and the UFO is not shown moving. Even if we generously say that the picture is of an extraterrestrial craft, which is up for debate, this contemporary sighting does not score particularly high.

On two separate occasions Air Force F-94s were scrambled over Washington after UFOs were sighted on radar at Andrews and Bolling Air Force bases. The reports of UFOs disappearing or outrunning the Air Force jets cemented the flying saucer craze in the popular imagination. The unusual blips, seen by multiple air traffic controllers, cruised at between 100 to 130 mph before zooming off at incredible speed. At the time The Washington Post ran the banner headline: "'Saucer' Outran Jet, Pilot Reveals."

Location: Valensole, Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, France- July 1965
Dubbed France’s Roswell by regional Le Dauphine newspaper, this sighting by Maurice Masse constitutes a close encounter of the third kind. Masse claimed he saw two humanoid aliens land a spherical UFO in a field. They then exited the craft. The French farmer said he was left paralyzed when one of the beings pointed a cylindrical instrument at him. The pair then flew away after briefly inspecting the surroundings. This incident rates so highly because close encounters where witnesses spotted physical beings were considered the most important by Hynek.

8. Delphos Ring Incident
Location: Delphos, Kansas - November 1971
Sixteen-year-old Ronald Johnson claimed to have seen a glowing object hovering over a specific area close to his family farm in the early evening. When he went to fetch other witnesses the object had vanished. However, an eerie glowing ring was found where the UFO had been. Another witness corroborated to police the sighting of the strange flying object. In 2017, Britain's Daily Express newspaper reported a U.K.-based scientist had analysed soil preserved from the site of the sighting, finding it to contain a potentially chemiluminescent organic compound.

10. Sheriff's Deputy Val Johnson Incident
Location:Marshall County, Minnesota- August 1979
In the early hours of the morning on September 11, 1979, Marshall County sheriff’s deputy Val Johnson encountered what he described as a white ball of light while driving on a rural section of State Highway 220. After diving towards the “bright, brilliant light,” which hovered three to four feet from the ground, Johnson woke up in a ditch half an hour later. His patrol car had suffered superficial damage and he had burns around his eyes. The now retired chief of police has kept an open mind about the experience. "I saw a ball of light," he told MPR in an interview. "I drove toward it, and suddenly it was in the car with me. It's unexplainable, and will remain so. I'm happy with my mental stability."

Named for three individuals involved in the sighting, Betty Cash, Vickie Landrum and Colby Landrum—who claimed they were followed by hovering disc with a single fiery thruster as they drove home through dense woods in eastern Texas. When the trio abandoned their car they felt intense heat generated by the UFO. All three claimed to suffer health problems in the aftermath of the encounter.

12.Trans-en-Provence Case
Location: Trans-en-Provence,Var, France - January 1981
In the early evening at his farm in the southern Var region of France, Renato Nicolaï, a 55-year-old farmer, observed a saucer-shaped UFO land on his property at a distance of about 50 yards. The lead-colored vessel then lifted off from the ground and flew towards a nearby treeline. The case is considered remarkable because of scorch marks left by the machine, documented and extensively analysed by French authorities. No definitive explanation for the incident has ever been given, and 31 years later retired French police confirmed to the Var-Martin that they believed the case remained of the utmost importance.

Location: Belgium - March 1990
Over a number of days at the end of March 1990, scores of individuals reported seeing strange lights in the sky over Belgium. Belgian Air Force F-16s were dispatched to investigate. The F-16 pilots discovered nothing, but media frenzy over the European sightings exploded when a supposed image of one of the UFOs, a triangular craft with four thrusters, emerged. In 2011 the Belgian TV Channel RTL revealed the photo to be a fake. The faked image has been disregarded in our credibility rating, however the close encouter of the first kind was witnessed by multiple indivuals and trained air traffic controllers.

14. Phoenix Lights Phenomenon
Location: Phoenix, Arizona - March 1997
UFOlogists have claimed hundreds of witnesses saw the “otherworldly” lights across Arizona, Nevada and northern Mexico. The sighting comprised two principal parts: The spotting of a giant V-shaped craft displaying a number of lights or light-emitting thrusters and the sight of a series of stationary orange and red lights hanging in the sky. According to Arizona’s KStar News, the governor of the state at the time, Fife Symington, claimed he saw the lights. “I’m a pilot, and I know just about every machine that flies,” Symington said. “It was bigger than anything that I’ve ever seen. It remains a great mystery.”

Widely regarded by UFOlogists to have produced the most important photographs of a UFO, the McMinnville sighting became famous at the height of the 1950s UFO craze. Paul Trent captured the images on camera after his wife, Evelyn, spotted a slow-moving metal disk while feeding the rabbits on their farm. The images went on to be printed in Life magazine. The pair maintained they had seen a genuine UFO until their deaths, repeating the tale for The Oregonian in 1997.

Two Iranian F-4 interceptor aircraft reported their equipment jammed as they approached a star-shaped UFO over the areas surrounding the Iranian capital, Tehran. Ground control equipment at Mehrabad International Airport was also reportedly affected by the strange craft. Speaking at a pilot’s conference in 2007, pilot Parviz Jafari said he attempted to fire on the UFO but was unable to cause any damage. "My weapons jammed and my radio communications garbled," he said, according to the Irish Independent.

Four crew members of an Army Reserve helicopter recorded a near collision with a UFO near Charles Mill Lake. The incident was corroborated by witnesses in Richland and Ashland counties who described an object or a ball of light moving in a manner not consistent with human flight. The crew on the helicopter, piloted by Lawrence Coyne (for whom the sighting is named), reported seeing a 60-foot-long, cigar-shaped object with a bright green light, according to the Mansfield News Journal.

According to an investigation by GEPAN, a unit of France’s national aerospace agency tasked with investigating UFO sightings, a biologist, identified as M. Henri, and his wife observed an unidentified object that hovered for 20 minutes over their garden. The ovoid vessel had a shiny metallic appearance. M. Henri attempted to photograph the craft but found his camera had jammed. After the UFO regained altitude it moved at a speed and trajectory impossible for man-made aircraft. The witness claimed the vessel had an effect on his garden plants but under analysis they were found to be simply dehydrated.

United Airlines staff and pilots at Chicago O’Hare Airport reported seeing a flying saucer hovering over the airport terminal on an overcast day. The vessel then shot up into the air so quickly that it punched a hole in the clouds. The FAA told The Chicago Tribune that the sighting had likely been caused by “weather phenomenon” and did not further investigate the incident. One flight traffic controller official remarked at the time: “To fly seven million light years to O'Hare and then have to turn around and go home because your gate was occupied is simply unacceptable."

An unidentified flying object was seen flying at low altitude across the Rafael Hernandez Airport runway in Aguadilla, Puerto Rico. The object did not give any warning signals, although it delayed the departure of a commercial flight. A U.S. Customs and Border Protection aircraft captured infrared video of the episode that was supplied to the Scientific Coalition for UFOology (SCU) by a whistleblower. The video shows the vessel apparently travelling without lights, at some instances below tree-top altitude, at speeds close to 100 mph. An analysis of the video was published in a report by the SCU.

U.S. Navy pilot Cmdr. David Fravor recalled seeing “something not from this earth” while commanding a U.S. Navy strike fighter squadron during exercises some 60 to 100 miles off the coast of California. He recounted observing a tic-tac shaped vessel moving at great speed. The UFO was seen by a crew separate from Fravor that tracked the object and filmed it for more than a minute. The footage has now been declassified and published. The case was publicized by The New York Times following the Pentagon’s acknowledgement of its Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program, a 21st-century study of UFO sightings.
The third video publicized following the Pentagon’s acknowledgement of its Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program, this footage shows the high-speed flight of an unidentified aircraft at low altitude by a U.S. Navy F/A-18 Super Hornet.

A new study of fossils unearthed by Depression-era workers reveal that camels, antelopes and relatives of modern elephants and dogs were among the animals that roamed a veritable “Texas Serengeti” millions of years ago.
Researchers at the University of Texas have studied and identified a large collection of fossils unearthed during the Great Depression.
The fossil trove – nearly 4,000 specimens – makes up what the researchers call a veritable “TexasSerengeti,” representing 50 animal species, all of which roamed the Texas Gulf Coast 11-12 million years ago. The specimens include rhinos, alligators, antelopes, camels, 12 types of horses and several species of carnivores. The team also identified a new genus ofgomphothere, an extinct relative of elephants with a shovel-like lower jaw, as well as the oldest fossils of the American alligator and an extinct relative of modern dogs.
An artist’s interpretation of ancient North American fauna based on the UT research.
From 1939 to 1941, the Works Progress Administration (WPA) – a federal agency that provided work to millions of Americans during the Great Depression – put unemployed Texans to work as fossil-hunters. The workers dug up tens of thousands of specimens from sites near Beeville, Texas. For the past 80 years, the fossils have been stored at the University of Texas at Austin and, until now, studied only in small bits and pieces.
A paper describing these fossils, the collection history, and geologic setting was published April 11, 2019, in the journal Palaeontologia Electronica.
The fossils came into the university’s collection as part of a WPA-funded program, the State-Wide Paleontologic-Mineralogic Survey, which supervised the work and organized field units for collecting fossils and minerals across Texas from 1939 to 1941. Despite lasting only three years, the survey found and excavated thousands of fossils from across the state.
The reason the fossil collection contains so many large mammals is due in large part to the collection practices of the fossil-hunters, most of whom weren’t trained in paleontology. Large tusks, teeth and skulls were easier to spot – and more exciting to find – than bones left by small species. Steven May is a research associate at the UT Jackson School of Geosciences and author of the paper. May said in a statement:
They collected the big, obvious stuff. But that doesn’t fully represent the incredible diversity of the Miocene environment along the Texas Coastal Plain.
Fossilized skull parts from ancient elephant relatives in the collections of the Jackson School Museum of Earth History. The skull of a shovel-jawed gomphothere (pictured on bottom) collected by Great Depression-era fossil hunters is still wrapped in its field jacket. Scores of the WPA-era fossils in the UT collections are still secured in plaster field jackets, waiting to be unpacked for future research projects.
Since then, most of the finds have been kept in the Texas Vertebrate Paleontology Collections at the Jackson School Museum of Earth History. Over the years, a number of scientific papers have been published on select groups of WPA specimens. But this is the first paper to study the entire fauna.
Bottom line: A new study of fossils unearthed in Texas by Depression-era workers reveal camels, antelopes and relatives of modern elephants and dogs.

The US Navy secretly designed a super-fast futuristic aircraft resembling a UFO, documents reveal
Jasper Hamill
The US Navy has been granted a patent for an advanced aircraft which resembles a flying saucer UFO.
Military inventors filed plans for a highly unusual flying machine which uses an ‘inertial mass reduction device’ to travel at ‘extreme speeds’.
What that means is that the aircraft uses complex technology to reduce its mass and thereby lessen inertia (an object’s resistance to motion) so it can zoom along at high velocities.
The patent is highly complex and describes methods of reducing the mass of an aircraft using various techniques including the generation of gravity waves, which were first detected in 2016 after being produced when two black holes collided.
These drawings were filed as part of the patent and show a craft which looks a lot like a UFO

‘It is possible to reduce the inertial mass and hence the gravitational mass, of a system/object in motion, by an abrupt perturbation of the non-linear background of local spacetime,’ the patent says.
The craft described in the patent features a cavity wall filled with gas, which is then made to vibrate using powerful electromagnetic waves.
This then creates a vacuum around the craft, allowing it to propel itself at high speeds.
The UFO-style ship can be used in water, air or even space.
‘It is possible to envision a hybrid aerospace/undersea craft (HAUC), which due to the physical mechanisms enabled with the inertial mass reduction device, can function as a submersible craft capable of extreme underwater speeds… and enhanced stealth capabilities,’ the patent continues.
‘This hybrid craft would move with great ease through the air/space/water mediums, by being enclosed in a vacuum plasma bubble/sheath.’
Although the US Navy applied for the patentin 2016 and it was granted last year, it doesn’t necessarily mean the craft has been built and tested.
However, the technology is further evidence of the military’s interest in developing ‘exotic’ technologies.
Details of AATIP were first released in 2017, including reports of a sighting made by fighter pilots from the USS Nimitz.
These pilots saw a huge patch of churning, turbulent water the size of a Boeing 737, suggesting something was beneath the surface, as well as a ‘tic tac’ aircraft which zoomed off at almost impossibly high speeds.
We spoke to Nick Pope, former UFO investigator at the Ministry of Defence, and asked if he saw any similarities between the patented design and the Nimitz Tic Tac.
‘A hybrid craft, capable of flying both in the air and underwater, is uncannily similar to what was reported in the USS Nimitz incident from 2004,’ he said.
‘There was a similar incident of a UFO flying underwater in Puerto Rico in 2013. The possible connection between the USS Nimitz incident and this patent is intriguing, and it’s interesting that the US Navy seems to be the link here.
‘It’s possible that the patent is inspired by the incident and is part of an attempt to work out the technology behind the objects that were chased by the Navy F-18s. This is known as ‘reverse-engineering’.’

He said a ‘key question’ is how the plans fit in with the wider AATIP project.
In the latest patent, author Salvatore Cezar Pais mentions Harold Puthoff, a key figure in AATIP who commissioned the 38 papers exploring exotic technologies, which were then used by Defense Intelligence Agency durings briefings filed with the US Congress.
‘The papers that got media attention related to anti-gravity, invisibility cloaking, warp drive and wormholes, but a key point is that many of the papers relate to exotic propulsion systems – not just the technology that would enable us to build a faster aircraft, drone or missile, but the technology that we’d need for interstellar travel,’ Pope added.
‘These patents might be the first steps in taking humankind to the stars.’

We asked if he believed the craft in the patent had ever been built.
This patent for a “craft using an inertial mass reduction device” is fascinating, and is one of three patents filed by US Navy scientist Salvatore Cezar Pais.
‘The other one of his patents that caught my eye was one for a “high-frequency gravitational wave generator”.
‘It’s sometimes hard to tell where the boundary lies between fringe science and science fiction. Furthermore, even if the theoretical physics turns out to be sound, aeronautical engineers still have to be able to build something, if any of this is to have any tangible effect.
‘If they have built the technology described in the patents, I’m sure the program is highly classified. The bottom line is that if any of this works, we’re in game-changing territory.’
My fiance told me to turn around and look at this craft in the sky. I stood there in shock until I thought to reach for my phone. When I first saw it, it was moving slowly and seemed very close as it was huge.
It stayed stationary, then seemed to rotate slowly as it raised higher and the lights went out one by one. I never saw a definitive shape and it looked as if it literally disappeared.
It was like the craft, possible a TR-3B, blended in with the sky except for the lights. there was no sound at all. the sighting lasted about 2 minutes.
Afterward, I heard first then saw two helicopters going toward the sighting. I then went inside my home.

Millions Hear Mysterious Global Hum That Has Scientists Stumped
Millions Hear Mysterious Global Hum That Has Scientists Stumped
Not even scientists are able to explain the mysterious global hum that now affects millions of people.
A mysterious global hum is baffling scientists and millions of people around the world.
In fact, 4% of the world’s population, or roughly 308 million people, can hear the mysterious global hum, The Guardianclaims. Specifically, 308 million is 4% of the current global population of 7.691 billion. However, nobody including scientists knows what causes the hum.
To clarify, the mysterious global hum is a sound similar to “an endless riff of heavy metal music” or whirring that people hear. Moreover, some people claim to have heard the worldwide hum since the 1960s or 1970s.
City Hears Mysterious Global Hum For Six Years
Strangely, people hear the hum all over the world. For instance, on Alaska’s Chichagof Island, in Sydney, Australia, as well as in London and Cheshire, England.
In addition, the mysterious global hum plagued residents of Windsor, Ontario (across from Detroit) for six years, The Guardian reports. Specifically, Windsor residents describe the hum as part noise and part vibration. Strangely, some Windsor residents compare the hum to the noise the Starship Enterprise makes as it prepares for Warp speed.
“You can’t get away from it,” Windsor resident Mike Provost tells The Guardian. “You go outside to work in your garden, you go outside to enjoy the sun, the noise is there.”
In detail, Windsor residents first heard the hum in 2010 and were still reporting it in 2016. However, Canadian scientists blame the hum on a U.S. Steel plant and other industrial facilities on Zug Island in the Detroit River. To elaborate, the scientists think industrial machines make the hum.
What Causes The Mysterious Global Hum?
On the other hand, industrial machines are not causing the mysterious global hum in places like Chichagof Island and London.
Presently, explanations for the hum range from tinnitus to lighting, to meteors, to the ocean, to electromagnetic energy, to volcanoes, to stress, to submarines, to noise pollution, to space aliens, The Guardian reports. Nevertheless, there is no hard evidence to verify any of those explanations.
“The bulk of the evidence suggests that the Hum is not an acoustic sound,” geoscientist David Deming says. “This is indicated by the simple fact that most people do not hear it.”
Mysterious Global Hum Baffles Scientists
Significantly, Deming has been investigating the hum since 2004 and found no causes. Notably, Deming‘s research began after hearing the hum himself.
Notwithstanding, Deming believes electromagnetic energy from low-frequency radio signals causes the mysterious global hum. Particularly, navies use such signals to communicate with submarines at sea.
Conversely, the hum got louder when a science teacher named Dr. Glen MacPherson locked himself in a special room designed to block low-frequency radio signals. As a result, MacPherson thinks the hum is neurological.
“This is caused by something internal–some internally generated perception of sound,” MacPherson tells The Guardian. Nonetheless, MacPherson cannot identify the internal cause of the mysterious global hum.
MacPherson is tracking the mysterious global hum at his website: The Hum. In fact, if you hear the hum, MacPherson wants to hear from you to help identify its source.
Do you have any thoughts on the global hum phenomenon and what may cause it? Let us know in the comments below.

New Alien Abduction Documentary 2019 So Real, They Will Make You Question Everything!
These people regularly report “missing time”—not being able to account for the elapsed time during which they later learn their visitation occurred. These are the most convincing alien stories that are not well known and that the media has not covered.
The encounters reported by the contactees were overwhelming friendly, their aliens benevolent. So, why did things change? What do they want with us?
My experience was with the tall grays, was not terrible at all, I was sleeping , then I heard what sounded like load thumping sound kinda like air pressure waves hitting me and I felt weightless, then I blacked out, I came too at the piont where I felt a long skinny arms holding me and put me back into my bed and then I woke up and remember everything that I just said.

UFO Researchers Accidentally Finds Ship Wreak When Searching For Alien Underwater Bases, UFO Sighting News.
UFO Researchers Accidentally Finds Ship Wreak When Searching For Alien Underwater Bases, UFO Sighting News.
Coordinates: 57° 9'33.11" N153° 9'29.91"W
I was using Google Earth looking for alien bases and evidence of underwater bases when I found several ship wreaks by accident. Here is the best one that I found. It was just kind of amazing to me so I had to share it with you all. A lot of people say I only find things on the moon and Mars and they say its my imagination...well here is something similar to what I find on Mars, yet its on Earth. That mere fact makes most people believe their own eyes. If its not on Earth, they distrust what their eyes show them. Odd, I know, but thats how we are. Scott C. Waring
Giant Glowing UFO Seen In Sky With Two Moving Objects Within Its, April 2019, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Giant Glowing UFO Seen In Sky With Two Moving Objects Within Its, April 2019, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: April 2019 Location of sighting: Unknown Here is an interesting video about a glowing object seen in the sky with two different moving objects within it. At first it looks like it could be two rockets shot off at the same time, but really, who would risk such a thing? Even spacex wont do that. The fact that we don't see any contrails from rockets or trails leading to this glowing anomaly makes me believe that this is an alien creation. Tell me your thoughts about it in the comments below please. What do you make of this? Scott C. Waring
200 Meter UFO Seen Over Volcano In Mexico On Live Cam, April 19, 2019 Video, UFO Sighting News.
200 Meter UFO Seen Over Volcano In Mexico On Live Cam, April 19, 2019 Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: April 19, 2019 Location of sighting: Volcano Popocatepetl, Mexico Here is a great video of an eyewitness who caught a UFO flying through the smoke of the famous volcano Popocatepetl. The UFO appears to be a large disk viewed from the side and passes right through the smoke and over the mouth of an active volcano. No plane would ever dare to fly that close to this live volcano. Also its impossible that its a plane. The mouth of the volcano is 600+ meters across according to Wikipedia. That would make this flying object 200 meters across! Have you ever heard of a plane 200 meters long? Nope. So this is 100% evidence that aliens are active in Mexico. Scott C. Waring-Taiwan
Check out this amazing discovery near our sun. The giant cube got caught again and this time it looks 3D. You can really see two sides of the UFO very well. Its similar in structure to a Borg cube from Star Trek. Its seen visiting our sun every few weeks on the SOHO/NASA sun images. It must be very close to the SOHO satellite because it looks huge!
UFO Over Group Of Hikers On Mountain In Spain, April 2019, Video, UFO Sighting News.
UFO Over Group Of Hikers On Mountain In Spain, April 2019, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: April 2019
Location of sighting: Tenerife, Spain
The eyewitness accidentally captured a UFO near a volcano in Spain last week. The UFO appears in one photo just above a group of people trekking up the mountain. When I make a close up of the UFO, I see there are no wings, no contrail, but it does appear to be a disk with a dome on its top center. UFOs are seen in mountain areas because many alien bases are hidden in remote location so that humans wont stumble upon them. Awesome capture.
Multiple Sky Watchers Have Recorded a Video of UFOs Moving Over Oxfordshire
Multiple Sky Watchers Have Recorded a Video of UFOs Moving Over Oxfordshire
A group of UFO researchers has seen orange coloured orbs and managed to record the mysterious event on video. David Twine, a Hampshire UFO Group member, said the incident took place during a group skywatch on the night of April 9, 2016. Four of them witnessed the orbs in their naked eyes and viewed them later through binoculars.
They were on a former Royal Air force station Stoney Cross, located close to junction 1 of the M27, Cadnam.
The group was looking on the Northern part of their viewpoint when the orb-like objects came into view, flying left to the right. The group recorded the video of their sighting with zoom function activated and in black and white. No sound from those flying objects was recorded or heard.
First reports involving these UFOs happened over Mevagissey in Cornwall, and then they were reported to fly east 185 miles towards Oxfordshire, around 50 to 80 miles north of the group’s location. The objects then continued moving across Northamptonshire and on towards Bedfordshire.
A jet aircraft can be seen at 4.38 time of the footage from the lower right to left. The pilots and/or passengers must have seen these orange objects.
The group sent Freedom of Information Request letters to the Civil Aviation Authority and the Ministry of Defence for any additional information regarding this mysterious event. However, the group did not get a response.

This really fast triangular shaped craft was filmed over England back in November 2018 and just submitted to our Facebook page.
Witness report:
This is a video I captured on the 6th November 2018 when filming a firework display in slow motion. Watch as 3 bright lights go from right to left. This was not visible with the naked eye.Looking back on other footage of the night, these three bright lights are captured moving faster than anything I’ve ever seen before.Filmed on Oldham edge, Oldham, England.

Huge flying saucer over south Florida, 15-Mar-2019
This UFO videos was just submitted through our Facebook page. It was shot in Florida on 15 March 2019.
Witness report:
I witnessed this on a live camera feed where I work in south Florida. I had to cut the video short so as to not identify my work position or location. It is a security violation to do so. The object was not identified on radar as an aircraft nor a drone. It had heat and was identified clearly on our thermal cameras. It couldn’t have been an animal because of the heat it generated. We have been trying to figure out what it is since we seen it. This is raw footage just cut short, I don’t know how to edit it so as not to show our company details. The object flew very fast, descended and leveled out over the city. We thought it was a meteorite until it leveled out. I want to remain anonymous as I don’t want to jeopardize my job. The large pulsating ball of light appears from the right corner and descends. The other white dot in the center is an airbus aircraft. I’m sorry for not being able to send the entire video. I’ve never seen anything like that before.
Perfectly Smooth Shell of a Craft” – A Look Inside The Real Secret Space Program
"Perfectly Smooth Shell of a Craft” – A Look Inside The Real Secret Space Program
• In spite of disinformation campaigns, bad journalism, and infiltration by intelligence agencies into mainstream media outlets that try to convince the public through “an official campaign of ridicule and secrecy” that there is no such thing as UFOs, we know that they’re real. There is a plethora of credible sources – including documents, data, physical evidence, and more – suggesting we’re not alone, and that we have been visited by intelligent extraterrestrial beings from other worlds and possibly other dimensions.
• Garry McKinnon, for example, spent ten years in danger of extradition from the UK to the US for accessing nearly 100 NASA and military computers including the United States Space Command. On this government website, McKinnon found a photo of a large cylindrical shaped UFO hovering in space, a list of “non-terrestrial officers”, and logs of “fleet to fleet” transfers of materials. Is this evidence of a Secret Space Program using reverse engineered ET technology?
• Dr. David Clarke, an international investigative journalist who regularly comments on UFOs, said, “… the UK military were interested in capturing UFO technology… [and] were desperate to capture this technology… before the Russians or the Chinese got hold of it first.”
• In the US, these UFO investigative and research efforts are hidden within Special Access Programs which contain both unacknowledged and waived SAPs. Better known as ‘deep black programs’, these programs do not exist publicly, but they do indeed exist. We know that there is a black budget to fund these programs. A 1997 US Senate report described them as “so sensitive that they are exempt from standard reporting requirements to the Congress.”
• According to Herman Oberth, one of the founding fathers of rocketry and astronautics in the 1950’s, “flying saucers are real and . . . they are space ships from another solar system. I think that they possibly are manned by intelligent observers who are members of a race that may have been investigating our Earth for centuries.” “We have, indeed, been contacted — perhaps even visited — by extraterrestrial beings, and the US government, in collusion with the other national powers of the Earth, is determined to keep this information from the general public.”
• Former Chief of Defence Staff, Five-Star Admiral of the Royal Navy, and former Chairman of the NATO Military Committee, Lord Admiral Hill-Norton, said: “There are objects in our atmosphere which are technically miles in advance of anything we can deploy… we have no means of stopping them from coming here… there is a serious possibility that we are being visited and have been visited for many years by people from outer space, from other civilizations… This should be the subject of rigorous scientific investigation and not the subject of ‘rubbishing’ by tabloid newspapers.”
• There are literally hundreds of people with extensive academic, political and military backgrounds, all the way to astronauts, who have been blowing the whistle on extraterrestrial UFOs for a very long time. Many scientific publications describe radar-confirmed military sightings of UFOs by military pilots.
• The point is, if you believe some of these UFOs are indeed extraterrestrial, you are not alone.
The field of UFOlogy has long been muddled with disinformation campaigns and bad journalism, and sometimes this journalism includes infiltration efforts by intelligence agencies themselves. This is clear given the fact that intelligence agencies have a direct relationship with journalists and mainstream media outlets, as there are declassified documents showing so. Operation Mockingbird is a great example, not to mention all of the mainstream media journalists who have come out and said that mainstream media is directly influenced by intelligence agencies, governments and corporations. When it comes to UFOs, we know that they’re real, but we also know that along with that reality there has been “an official campaign of ridicule and secrecy.” (Ex-CIA Director Roscoe Hillenkoetter) Perhaps this ridicule campaign carries on today through some rather ghastly, unbelievable claims, but let’s not let that mask the fact that this phenomenon is indeed real, and there are a plethora of credible sources including documents, data, physical evidence, and more suggesting we’re not alone, and that we probably are being visited and have been visited by intelligent extraterrestrial beings from other worlds and possibly other dimensions.
A lot of this evidence has come from UFOlogist Richard Dolan, who has always been a key resource for me with regards to accessing credible information about the UFO phenomenon. I find that it’s important to seek out proper researchers who share information in a credible and verifiable way, especially about a subject that can so easily be ridiculed when you are trying to reach the masses who don’t have much knowledge about it, but are genuinely curious. I also feel that my generation of UFO researchers lack proper research and investigative skills, are easily influenced and swayed, and in the age of social media are simply trying to share whatever they can, no matter how credible, to simply ‘stay relevant,’ instead of doing it for the love and genuine desire to share important, truthful information.
Like I said, there are some rather ‘outside the box claims’ out there that have absolutely no credibility behind them, and to share those actually does more disservice to the movement, in my opinion. On the other hand, there are some very outside the box claims and information that do indeed have tremendous amounts of credibility behind them, and these are the ones we should be paying attention to.
One example comes from the case of Garry McKinnon, who for 10 years was in great danger of extradition to the United States for accessing nearly 100 NASA and military computers including the United States Space Command. This was the real deal, as Obama and the UK Prime Minister at the time revealed while fielding a question about Garry. This breach made headline news.
Gary was able to access these computers in real time and view files on them. He found some startling pictures, one in particular was of a large cylindrical shaped UFO hovering in space, in addition to a strange spreadsheet document with a list of “non-terrestrial officers,” presumably belonging to a publicly unacknowledged branch of the United States military operating in space, as well as “fleet to fleet” transfers of materials, whatever that means.
The Real Secret Space Program
Is there a secret space program, and have clandestine groups been reverse engineering ET technology?
After finding microplastics in thedeep oceans, tapwater, and eveninside humans, researchers have now discovered another ‘pristine’ area polluted by plastic: remote mountain glaciers.
Microplastics have been found in areas once thought pristine such as glaciers.

It’s not the first time plastic pollution has been found in ice. Previously, researchers have found plastic in remote regions such as the Arctic — now, the same researchers have now discovered microplastics in the Forni Glaciers in the Swiss Alps.
Roberto Sergio Azzoni at the University of Milan and colleagues analyzed sediment samples from the glaciers, finding around 75 particles of microplastic per kilogram of sediment. If this is a representative sample, that would add up to 162 million plastic particles across the entire Forni glacier.
Microplastics are essentially any plastic piece under the size of 5 millimeters (0.2 inches) — whether they were produced this or degraded into smaller pieces. They generally enter natural ecosystems from a variety of sources such as cosmetics, clothing, and industrial processes. In this case, the plastic parts have a “local” origin: they most likely come from hi-tech hiking gear.
It’s a stern reminder that anywhere humans go, plastic pollution follows close by.
A 2014 study estimated that there are between 15 and 51 trillion individual pieces of microplastic in the world’s oceans. A more recent study from 2017 found that most of the world’s tap water is also contaminated with microplastics, as water filtration systems are unable to remove these small specs. Creatures of all shapes and sizes from marine ecosystems have also been found with substantial quantities of ingested plastic; often times, this turns out to be fatal. It’s estimated that it takes in excess of 1,000 years for microplastics to fully degrade in the environment.
Policy attempts at reducing microplastics have been shy. In 2018, the Japanese government unanimously voted a law to reduce microplastic pollution, but the law doesn’t specify any penalties for companies that don’t comply. In the US, states like Illinois have banned cosmetics containing microplastics, and at the national level, a 2015 law signed by President Barack Obama banned “rinse-off” cosmetic products that contain microplastics, but the law does not apply to other products such as household cleaners. The European Chemical Agency has also recommended measures to reduce microplastic pollution, but no concrete measures have been taken yet.
The latest findings have been presented at the European Geosciences Union conference in Vienna.
Two newly-discovered tombs give a dazzling, exceptionally-preserved glimpse into the deaths of ancient Egyptians.
Image credits Egyptian Ministry of Antiquities via Twitter.
Two new tombs have been discovered in Egypt in an almost pristine state. One of the tombs is part of the Akhmim necropolis in the province of Sohag, and dates back to the Ptolemaic era of Egypt (about 2,000 years ago). The other tomb, from Saqqara, is significantly older, dating back over 4,000 years.
Both tombs are in an incredibly well-preserved state. The murals on their walls are virtually intact, their discoverers report, with the colors unfaded by time.
The Sohag tomb was discovered after a gang of tomb robbers — who were carrying out an illegal excavation — was arrested nearby, according to the Egyptian Ministry of Antiquities. It dates back to the Ptolemaic era and belonged to a senior official named Tutu and his wife. The tomb comprises two rooms, both adorned with lavishly painted walls. Inside Tutu’s tomb, archeologists found two limestone sarcophagi and an exceptionally well-preserved mummy. More than 50 mummified animals were also found in this tomb, including ibis, falcons, eagles, dogs, cats, and shrews.
The other tomb, from Saqqara, dates back to the time of Pharaoh Djedkare Isesi. It seems to have belonged to a high-ranking official named Khuwy. The tomb itself also suggests that this Khuwy was related in one form or another to Djedkare Isesi. It is an L-shaped building with a small corridor, an antechamber, and a large main chamber adorned with murals showing Khuwy seated at a table of offerings. In addition, the tomb also boasts a tunneled entrance (which are usually the domain of royal tombs and pyramids) and colors traditionally reserved for royalty in its murals. Archeologists also found Khuwy’s mummy and the canopic jars in which organs are placed for burial (which were sadly broken into pieces) at the tomb.
At a presentation unveiling the tomb of Tutu, Waziri said he hoped the discovery would “draw the world’s attention to the civilization and antiquities of Egypt.” This feeds into the sustained efforts Egypt has been making to publicize its archeological findings in recent months in an effort to “increase tourism interest in a destination that suffered following a 2011 uprising,” CNN adds.
At the end of last year, the Ministry unveiled two dazzling tombs, one dating back 3,500 years, and another 4,400 years old, belonging to a priest named Wahtye. Another 2,500-year-old tomb was found to contain dozens of mummified cats and scarab beetles.
