NASA Fails To Report Giant Donut UFO Fleet Near Sun, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: 2006, but reported today
Location of sighting: Earths sun

A youtube user going by the name of Terrys Theories found some interesting donut UFOs near our sun. It looks like a fleet of three UFOs and they are huge. You can clearly make out the donut shape with the whole in the middle. This is a common UFO seen near our sun and still has never received an explanation from NASA. The fact that he found this going through the archives and its dated 2006 is evidence that giant UFOs have been recorded by NASA and have gone unreported for a long time.

NASA Scientist Trolls Us Saying They Are Close To Finding Alien Life, But Russia Already Found It! UFO Sighting News.

Nasa’s Chief Scientist Dr Jim Green warns “It will be revolutionary,” he said. “It’s like when Copernicus stated ‘no we go around the Sun’. Completely revolutionary. It will start a whole new line of thinking. I don’t think we’re prepared for the results. We’re not. I’ve been worried about that because I think we’re close to finding it, and making some announcements."

Ok, sure a NASA scientist says this...but if he is replaced in a few years, the announcement may never be made. NASA was not created to find alien life and tell the public...it was created to pretend to explore the universe while gathering a lot of top secret intel about alien life...all while drop feeding the public boring scientific facts in order to get continued public support and funding by the government. NASA has a 100 years mission for this...and for the scientist to say this now...when NASA is only 61 years old...make me suspicious that they have something else up their sleeve for the public. 

Two years ago Russian astronauts were cleaning the solar panels on the space station, and were first to discover alien life on the space stations outer hull on the solar panels. They found giant plankton growing using the suns energy to grow...plankton that were living in space! Which came from space and landed on the panels! That is the historic first encounter of alien life. But Americans don't want to give Russia credit for this...but doesn't change the fact that its true. 

The NASA scientist Dr Green didn't say they would announce intelligent alien life, only life, which means a fungus, moss, grass blades or a bacteria. They have no intention to announce intelligent alien life. It basically fake news...NASA is learning from Trump.

Astronomers have found evidence for a possible exomoon orbiting a gas giant planet 550 light-years away. If they’re interpreting the evidence correctly, this moon would be a place of destruction, even more volcanically active than Jupiter’s famous volcanic moon, Io.

Researchers found sodium gas near WASP-49b, but far enough away that the gas is unlikely to be due to winds on the planet. Is this moon like Io on steroids?

Astronomers may have discovered a “hyper-volcanic” exomoon – an extreme version of Jupiter’s moon Io – orbiting a distant planet. A new study suggests that this possible moon, 550 light-years away, is even more volcanically active than Io, the most volcanically active body in our own solar system. An amazing discovery, if true.

The new peer-reviewed findings were published by researchers from the University of Bern in Switzerland, and a draft version of the new paper was posted on arXiv on August 29, 2019.

Apurva Oza led the new study, and described what this Io-on-steroids world might be like:

It would be a dangerous volcanic world with a molten surface of lava, a lunar version of close-in super-Earths like 55 Cancri e, a place where Jedis go to die, perilously familiar to Anakin Skywalker.

The possible exomoon would orbit a hot Jupiter gas giant planet – WASP-49b – that orbits its sun-like star, WASP-49 in the constellation Lepus. WASP-49b orbits its star in less than three days.

The exomoon hasn’t been confirmed yet, but there is good circumstantial evidence for its existence. The researchers found sodium gas near WASP-49b, but far enough away that it is unlikely to be due to winds on the planet. The observations are similar to what is seen with Jupiter and Io in our own solar system. According to Oza:

The neutral sodium gas is so far away from the planet that it is unlikely to be emitted solely by a planetary wind. The sodium is right where it should be.

If confirmed, this would be an interesting analog to the Jupiter-Io system, but a more extreme version.

An earlier study in 2006 had also shown that large amounts of sodium near an exoplanet could be evidence for a moon, and that compact systems of a star, planet and moon – like with WASP-49 – could be stable for billions of years. According to Oza:

The enormous tidal forces in such a system are the key to everything. Sodium and potassium lines are quantum treasures to us astronomers because they are extremely bright. The vintage street lamps that light up our streets with yellow haze, are akin to the gas we are now detecting in the spectra of a dozen exoplanets.

While the researchers think that an exomoon is the most likely explanation, there are still other possibilities such as a ring of ionized gas around the planet. More data is needed, Oza said:

We need to find more clues. While the current wave of research is going towards habitability and biosignatures, our signature is a signature of destruction.

WASP-49b is located in the constellation Lepus, just below the larger constellation Orion.

Exomoons by nature are extremely difficult to detect, and there has been only one other good candidate so far, a possible Neptune-sized moon orbiting the giant planet Kepler-1625b, 8,000 light-years away in the constellation Cygnus. Confirmation of the moon of WASP-49b would be exciting, not only because of it being a moon orbiting a distant planet in another solar system, but also because it would be a discovery of “destruction” in a planetary system. As Oza explained:

The exciting part is that we can monitor these destructive processes in real time, like fireworks.

The possible moon orbiting WASP-49b would be similar to Jupiter’s moon Io, but a more extreme version. That’s a remarkable finding, since Io is the most volcanically active body in our solar system, even more than Earth. Io has hundreds of sulfur volcanoes, many of which are erupting at any given time. The moon’s multi-colored surface is covered in new and old lava flows, including lakes of molten silicate lava, and its appearance is often compared to a pizza. The volcanic activity is so intense and persistent, the moon is essentially always “turning itself inside out.” It also has a very thin atmosphere of sulfur dioxide.

Io’s volcanism is the result of its being continuously tugged at by Jupiter’s immense gravity, which keeps its insides molten. The process would probably be similar for the moon orbiting WASP-49b, which is also a gas giant planet. Io has been visited and observed by the Voyager, Cassini, Galileo and New Horizons spacecraft, but its volcanic eruptions are big enough to be seen by large telescopes on Earth.

If the moon is confirmed, it will be an incredible discovery: a tiny, distant world whose presence was given away by volcanic eruptions more powerful than any seen in our own solar system.

• Bottom line: Astronomers have found evidence for a possible exomoon orbiting the gas giant exoplanet WASP-49b. If it’s real, this moon is an incredibly destructive place, even more volcanically active than Jupiter’s moon Io.

NASA Detects Mysterious Green Light that Disappeared Days Later

As if the universe did not tire of surprising the specialists, now NASA detected a mysterious green light in the Fireworks galaxy that disappeared days later .

The experts of the space agency were surprised that the phenomenon appreciated suddenly disappeared, as Hannah Earnshaw, lead author of the investigation, revealed that this huge green light spot took her team’s dream away:

“Ten days is a really short time for such a bright object to appear. It was an exciting experience.”

As the Actualidad RT portal reported, NASA’s NuSTAR space observatory caught a burst of blue and green X-ray light that illuminated a part of the Fireworks galaxy.

The light spots, which disappeared within a few days of being detected, found an explanation this week in a statement from the agency based on a recent study.

At first the researchers did not know what the phenomenon was and rejected the theory that it was a supernova. In addition, the flashes suddenly disappeared ten days after the first observation.

The team of specialists named this phenomenon ULX-4, as they concluded that it was a source of ultra-bright X-rays (ULX). This space event is the fourth that is identified in this galaxy, but what intrigued the experts was the brevity of its appearance.

Around this mysterious green light a theory was created that indicated that the illumination could come from a black hole that consumed a star, since it is known that the gravity of this star separates any object that gets too close.

However, the time when black holes ‘eat’ dense space objects like stars usually has a long duration, so this brief appearance could be something else. The specialists suggested that the hole probably destroyed the star.

Other theories indicate that the ULX-4 was generated by a neutron star that acts just like black holes, feeding on cosmic material and ‘forming a disk of debris around it that moves quickly.’

Many conspiracy users claim that these lights are proof that aliens are manifesting now because they know the next prophecy of the End of the World, which will take place on September 23, 2019, would you like to know more about this theory?

Mysterious Black Object Recorded over Detroit Lakes, Minnesota, 'Can't be a Bug,' Says Newscaster

The mysterious object seemingly moving behind the clouds. 

(Todd Mitchell / WDAY)

A mysterious black object captured on camera by a Detroit Lakes man in Minnesota “can’t be a bug,” according to WDAY newscaster Tyler Ziegler.

“Now, originally I thought this was just a bug, but the figure comes back, and this time it flies through a cloud, guys,” Ziegler said. “It’s flying through the clouds, it can’t be a bug.”

The video was sent to WDAY News by Todd Mitchell, who, along with his wife, owns and operates the Country Campground just south of Detroit Lakes.

Mitchell said that he was trying to record the lightning from thunderstorms moving through the area on September 20th.

But, when he later watched the video, he had captured a mysterious black object flying around in-frame.

The object seems to appear from behind the treeline before zipping around in the sky, even appearing to move behind some clouds before disappearing.

The Singular Fortean Society’s photograph and video analyst Emily Wayland said she is unable to satisfactorily explain the phenomenon.

“What gets me is that it appears to come from behind the treeline,” she said. “If it was an insect close to the screen, you’d expect to see it flying in front of the landscape in the foreground, but you don’t. I’m not certain it’s really disappearing behind the clouds, though; it looks like that could actually be a trick of the eye caused by the object and the cloud’s similarity in transparency and blur. A trail behind an object is often seen in videos with a slow frame rate, much like a long exposure photograph, but the lightning in the video looks to be at a normal speed—so I don’t know that this could be a large object seen from far away and shot with a slow frame rate.”

“I have to consider that it could be a deliberate hoax, although it would take a certain amount of technical skill to create,” Emily continued. “If it was an overlay of an animation or something else inserted in Photoshop, the creator would have had to line that up pretty carefully to have it appear from behind the trees.”

Adam Benedict of the Pine Barrens Institute told the Singular Fortean Society that it reminded him of the engine to a model rocket.

"Right away to me, it looked like the engine to a model rocket. Without the actual rocket body, they zip all around in the sky with no clear path until running out of powder. You can get them with different colors of smoke as well," he said. "We used to light the just engines all the time as kids because we thought it was hilarious how they flew around like that."

Anyone in the area experimenting with model rocket engines on September 20th is encouraged to contact the Singular Fortean Society to help solve the mystery.

Black hole breakthrough: NASA captures its first-ever black hole tearing a star to shreds

The violent black hole was spotted by NASA’s planet-hunting TESS space probe and confirmed by ground-based observatories. Astronomers were alerted to the event when a star monitored by TESS unexpectedly grew brighter. The event, known as a tidal disruption, causes black holes to consume entire stars or stretch them out like spaghetti dough. Stars fall prey to these destructive tidal disruptions when they venture too close to a black hole.

In this particular case, the event was dubbed ASASSN-19bt after the All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae.

ASAS-SN is a global network of 20 robotic telescope observatories with headquarters at the Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio.

The telescope network, together with NASA, the European Space Agency (ESA) and observatories in Chile validated TESS’ discovery.

Dr Thomas Holoien, from the Carnegie Observatories in Pasadena, said: “TESS data let us see exactly when this destructive event, named ASASSN-19bt, started to get brighter, which we’ve never been able to do before.

“Because we identified the tidal disruption quickly with the ground-based All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae (ASAS-SN), we were able to trigger multiwavelength follow-up observations in the first few days.

“The early data will be incredibly helpful for modelling the physics of these outbursts.”

Dr Holoien and his team found the tidal disruption caused the star’s temperatures to drop from 71,500F to just 35,500F degrees (40,000 to 20,000 degrees Celsius).

Events like this are incredibly rare and only occur once every 10,000 to 100,000 years in a galaxy like the Milky Way.

Supernova eruptions, by comparison, are much more frequent at one every 100 years or so.

To date, astronomers have only observed about 40 tidal disruptions.

NASA’s TESS or Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) watches swathes of the night sky to detect stars briefly dipping in brightness.

The dips are caused by planets passing in front of stars and is NASA’s main way of discovering exoplanets in distant solar systems.

But for the first time in TESS’ mission, the space telescope observed the opposite of that.

The discovery was published on September 27 in The Astrophysical Journal.

Patrick Vallely, the study’s co-author from Ohio State University, said: “The early TESS data allow us to see light very close to the black hole, much closer than we’ve been able to see before.

“They also show us that ASSASN-19bt’s rise in brightness was very smooth, which helps us tell that the event was a tidal disruption and not another type of outburst, like from the centre of a galaxy of a supernova.”

Mayan DISCOVERY: How find in 2,000-year-old city ‘reveals story of creation’

MAYAN archaeologists think they have uncovered the story of how human beings were created, according to the ancient civilisation, a documentary claimed.

By CALLUM HOARE

The Mayans were a civilisation known for their architecture, mathematics and astronomical beliefs, who date back as far as 2000BC. However, thanks to a discovery made at the El Mirador site in northern Guatemala, historians are able to know more about their theories over how human beings ended up on Earth. Archaeologist Richard Hansen took Morgan Freeman to see a spectacular discovery deep in the jungles during the filming of “The Story of God”.

He told Mr Freeman in 2017: “We like to think of Los Angeles and New York as being modern cities, but these guys had the same perspective of their own city. 

“They had water delivery systems. they had freeways – the very first in the world. 

This is one of the most interesting excavations we have ever had. 

“This is art that was carved in stucco hundreds of years before Christ and it has an incredible scene showing the entire pantheon of the Mayan religion.

“This is the Mayan Bible, the Mayan Genesis story with all the deities that are needed to tell the story."

This is one of the most interesting excavations we have ever had

Mr Hansen went on to reveal what he believed the stonework represented. 

He added: “This is the oldest version of the Mayan’s sacred story of creation that has ever been found.

“The focus is on two swimmers carrying a severed head.

“It’s this head right here that gave us the clue who this might be a the first place.

“We think this is Hunahpu – one of the hero twins that serves the whole process of creation.”

The Mayan Hero Twins are the central figures of the oldest Mayan myth to have been preserved in its entirety. 

Hunahpu and Xbalanque are portrayed as complementary forces – life and death, sky and Earth or day and night. 

The pair need each other to balance out the other and balance out the two sides of a single entity.

It comes after another discovery revealed when the truth over when the Mayans thought the world would end. 

The team uncovered incriptions

In 2012, there was a brief frenzy after it was claimed that December 21 would mark the end of the world because it was the end-date of a 5,126-year cycle on the Mayan calendar.

However, thanks to the discovery on a stone slate in Tikal, Guatemala, archaeologists are able to understand more about this key date.

Stanley Guenter, a world-leading decoder of Mayan inscriptions, revealed during the same series: “This is stela 10, you can see we’ve got a king – there is his head and big headdress full of feathers, [his] shoulders, all of his jewellery and down to his feet.

“If you look down below, we can actually see we have a captive and we can see his hands and even legs – all tied up for sacrifice.

“[On the back] we have a date that gives us a specific point in time – 11 years and 360 days, then we have three katuns – which are 20 years each. 

“So that is another 60, and then we have nine b’ak’tuns, because this is a date of about 525AD.

“So if you remember we had 13 b’ak’tuns ended in 2012, but the really interesting thing is the monument does not stop there.”

Mr Guenter then went on to reveal how the entirety of the discovery reveals the 2012 prediction was just a single cycle inside a number of bigger cycles.

Archaeologists believe it is one of the Mayan Hero Twins

 (Image: NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC)

He continued: “It tells us there were 19 of the higher unit – the pictun – and even higher, 11 at the next unit.

“Each one of those units is 20 times larger than the previous, so what we see on this monument is that 13 b’ak’tuns was not the end of any calendar – just one cycle. 

“It was just the start of a new cycle, a new beginning, that would go on for almost eternity.

“We have never found the end for the Mayans.”

Mayan mystery solved: ‘Largest pyramid in world’ discovered hiding below Guatemala jungle

A GROUP of explorers set on solving the mystery of a long lost pyramid hidden deep in the Guatemala jungle, rumoured to be larger than the Great Pyramid of Giza, received the treat of their lives.

Mayan discovery: 2,000-year-old carving uncovered

El Mirador is a pre-Columbian Mayan settlement, located to the north of El Peten in Guatemala, first photographed from the air in 1930, but its remote location meant further exploration was limited. In 2003, Richard D. Hansen, an archaeologist from Idaho State University, initiated a major investigation and, although his team discovered that the area contained striking examples of the Preclassic Maya civilisation, its location prevented extensive documentation. However, 16 years on, digital media company Yes Theory have changed that, uncovering two large pyramids in the complex.

Thomas Brag, Ammar Kandil and Matt Dajer trekked for four days on foot through the Guatemala jungle, alongside seven other creators to fulfil Mr Kandil’s dream to climb a pyramid.

Documenting every step of their experience, they released “Finding the Lost Largest Pyramid in the World” on their website and later on YouTube on September 15, 2019.

First uncovering the colossal structure, Mr Dajer exclaimed: “We’ve just arrived at the very, very bottom base of a pyramid.

“You would never guess just walking through here, but this entire thing is limestone underneath and this is part of the pyramid.

The pyramid was hiding in the Guatemala jungle

“You can’t even grasp fully in your mind how huge this must have looked when it was for real.”

The group then begun making the monumental 50-minute-long journey up thousands of steps.

Mr Brag told the camera: “So these are the steps to the second platform and this entire thing that we are on is man built.

“So once they started digging up the soil from what’s been layered up on top of this over thousands of years, they’re actually discovering the giant construction and the insane labour that it was to build this.

“This is just the steps up, I can’t even see the top from here.

“This is way bigger than I expected, it is insane.”

Eventually they made it to the top, and the whole crew were left taken back.

Drone footage shows the pyramid like never seen before.

An emotional Mr Kandil reflected during the film: “This is all to do with a dream I had.

“Everything about Yes Theory is saying ‘yes’ to those dreams that you think are so far-fetched.

The team trekked for four days

It was Ammar’s dream to climb a pyramid

“It’s being constantly in the pursuit to go after those dreams, to go after the things that matter the most to you in life.

“As you’re in the pursuit to do something you love and to do something that you dream of, you never who that inspires or what that ends up contributing to your life.

“Sometimes we end up achieving the dreams we never even knew we had.”

There are roughly 35 “triadic” structures in El Mirador, consisting of large artificial platforms topped with a set of three summit pyramids. 

The most notable of such structures are the two huge complexes explored in the documentary, one is nicknamed “El Tigre”, with height 55 metres, while the other is called “La Danta”.

The group climbed the pyramid for 50 minutes 

(Image: YES THEORY)

The team were cut-off from the rest of the world 

(Image: YES THEORY)

The La Danta temple measures approximately 72 metres (236 ft) tall from the forest floor, and considering its total volume (2,800,000 cubic meters) is considered the largest in the world by many archaeologists.

For comparison the Great Pyramid of Giza is 139 metres tall, but 2,583,283 cubic metres in volume.

That has not stopped one of the Seven Wonder of the Ancient World from making headlines too, though.

Recently, archaeologists opened a mystery box from Tutankhamen’s tomb on camera for the first time during Bethany Hughes’ Channel 5 show “Egypt’s Greatest Treasures”.

However, the pair did not quite get the find they were hoping for inside.

Mayan mystery: Archaeologists piece together cave remains

Dr Hughes added: “Sadly, the box is empty.

“But, you can smell it though, can’t you?

“You can smell the wood and the resin, it’s empty, but you can smell the history coming out of it.

“It still is the most remarkable thing and it’s tantalising us with its secrets.

“It is not letting us know why it was put in the tomb, but I like that.”

The 12 Biggest Unanswered Questions About Dark Matter

1. Dark Matter Web

In the 1930s, a Swiss astronomer named Fritz Zwicky noticed that galaxies in a distant cluster were orbiting one another much faster than they should have been given the amount of visible mass they had. He proposed than an unseen substance, which he called dark matter, might be tugging gravitationally on these galaxies.

Since then, researchers have confirmed that this mysterious material can be found throughout the cosmos, and that it is six times more abundant than the normal matter that makes up ordinary things like stars and people. Yet despite seeing dark matter throughout the universe, scientists are mostly still scratching their heads over it. Here are the 11 biggest unanswered questions about dark matter.

2. What is dark matter?

Image credit: Shutterstock)

First and perhaps most perplexingly, researchers remain unsure about what exactly dark matter is. Originally, some scientists conjectured that the missing mass in the universe was made up of small faint stars and black holes, though detailed observations have not turned up nearly enough such objects to account for dark matter's influence, as physicist Don Lincoln of the U.S. Department of Energy's Fermilab previously wrote for Live Science. The current leading contender for dark matter's mantle is a hypothetical particle called a Weakly Interacting Massive Particle, or WIMP, which would behave sort of like a neutron except would be between 10 and 100 times heavier than a proton, as Lincoln wrote. Yet, this conjecture has only led to more questions ­ — for instance…

3. Can we detect dark matter?

If dark matter is made from WIMPs, they should be all around us, invisible and barely detectable. So why haven't we found any yet? While they wouldn't interact with ordinary matter very much, there is always some slight chance that a dark-matter particle could hit a normal particle like a proton or electron as it travels through space. So, researchers have built experiment after experiment to study huge numbers of ordinary particles deep underground, where they are shielded from interfering radiation that could mimic a dark-matter-particle collision. The problem? After decades of searching, not one of these detectors has made a credible discovery. Earlier this year, the Chinese PandaX experiment reported the latest WIMP nondetection. It seems likely that dark-matter particles are much smaller than WIMPs, or lack the properties that would make them easy to study, physicist Hai-Bo Yu of the University of California, Riverside, told Live Science at the time.

4. Does dark matter consist of more than one particle?

Ordinary matter is made up of everyday particles like protons and electrons, as well as a whole zoo of more exotic particles like neutrinos, muons and pions. So, some researchers have wondered if dark matter, which makes up 85 percent of the matter in the universe, might also be just as complicated. "There is no good reason to assume that all the dark matter in the universe is built out of one type of particle," physicist Andrey Katz of Harvard University said to Space.com, Live Science's sister site. Dark protons could combine with dark electrons to form dark atoms, producing configurations as diverse and interesting as those found in the visible world, Katz said. While such proposals have increasingly been imagined in physics labs, figuring out a way to confirm or deny them has so far eluded scientists. [Strange Quarks and Muons, Oh My! Nature's Tiniest Particles Dissected]

5. Do dark forces exist?

Along with additional particles of dark matter, there is the possibility that dark matter experiences forces analogous to those felt by regular matter. Some researchers have searched for "dark photons," which would be like the photons exchanged between normal particles that give rise to the electromagnetic force, except they would be felt only by dark matter particles. Physicists in Italy are gearing up to smash a beam of electrons and their antiparticles, known as positrons, into a diamond, as Live Science previously reported. If dark photons do exist, the electron-positron pairs could annihilate and produce one of the strange force-carrying particles, potentially opening a brand-new sector of the universe.

6. Could dark matter be made of axions?

As physicists increasingly fall out of love with WIMPs, other dark-matter particles are starting to gain favor. One of the leading replacements is a hypothetical particle known as an axion, which would be extremely light, perhaps as little as 10 raised to the 31st power less massive than a proton. Axions are now being searched for in a few experiments. Recent computer simulations have raised the possibility that these axions could form star-like objects, which might produce detectable radiation that would be quite similar to mysterious phenomena known as fast-radio bursts, as Live Science previously reported.

7. What are the properties of dark matter?

Astronomers discovered dark matter through its gravitational interactions with ordinary matter, suggesting that this is its main way of making its presence known in the universe. But when trying to understand the true nature of dark matter, researchers have remarkably little to go on. According to some theories, dark-matter particles should be their own antiparticles, meaning that two dark-matter particles would annihilate with one another when they meet. The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) experiment on the International Space Station has been searching for the telltale signs of this annihilation since 2011and has already detected hundreds of thousands of events. Scientists still aren't sure if these are coming from dark matter, and the signal has yet to help them pin down exactly what dark matter is.

8. Does dark matter exist in every galaxy?

Because it so massively outweighs ordinary matter, dark matter is often said to be the controlling force that organizes large structures such as galaxies and galactic clusters. So, it was strange when, earlier this year, astronomers announced that they had found a galaxy named NGC 1052-DF2 that seemed to contain hardly any dark matter at all. "Dark matter is apparently not a requirement for forming a galaxy," Pieter van Dokkum of Yale University told Space.com at the time. However, over the summer, a separate team posted an analysis suggesting that van Dokkum's team had mismeasured the distance to the galaxy, meaning its visible matter was much dimmer and lighter than the first findings and that more of its mass was in dark matter than was previously suggested.

9. What's up with the DAMA/LIBRA results?

A long-standing mystery in particle physics are the puzzling results of a European experiment known as DAMA/LIBRA. This detector — located in an underground mine below the Gran Sasso mountain in Italy — has been searching for a periodic oscillation in dark matter particles. This oscillation should arise as the Earth moves in its orbit around the sun while flying through the galactic stream of dark matter surrounding our solar system, sometimes called the dark matter wind. Since 1997, DAMA/LIBRA has claimed to see exactly this signal, though no other experiment has seen anything like this.  

10. Could dark matter have an electrical charge?

A signal from the beginning of time has led some physicists to suggest that dark matter might have an electrical charge. Radiation with a wavelength of 21 centimeters was emitted by stars in the universe's infancy, just 180 million years after the Big Bang. It was then absorbed by cold hydrogen that was around at the same time. When this radiation was detected in February of this year, its signature suggested that the hydrogen was much colder than scientists had predicted. Astrophysicist Julian Muñoz of Harvard University hypothesized that dark matter with an electrical charge could have drawn heat away from the all-pervasive hydrogen, sort of like ice cubes floating in lemonade, as he told Live Science at the time. But the conjecture has yet to be confirmed.

11. Can ordinary particles decay into dark matter?

Neutrons are regular matter particles with a limited lifetime. After around 14.5 minutes, a lone neutron unmoored from an atom will decay into a proton, an electron and a neutrino. But two different experimental setups give slightly different lifetimes for this decay, with the discrepancy between them about 9 seconds, according to experiments cited in a July study in the journal Physical Review Letters. Earlier this year, physicists suggested that if 1 percent of the time, some neutrons were decaying into dark-matter particles, it could account for this anomaly. Christopher Morris from the Los Alamos National Laboratory, in New Mexico, and his team monitored neutrons for a signal that could be dark matter but were unable to detect anything. They suggested that other decay scenarios might still be possible, according to the study.

12. Does dark matter actually exist?

Given the difficulties that scientists have faced trying to detect and explain dark matter, a reasonable questioner might wonder if they're going about it all wrong. For many years, a vocal minority of physicists have pushed the idea that perhaps our theories of gravity are simply incorrect, and that the fundamental force works differently on large scales than we expect. Often known as "modified Newtonian dynamics," or MOND models, these suggestions posit that there is no dark matter and the ultrafast speeds at which stars and galaxies are seen to rotate around one another is a consequence of gravity behaving in surprising ways. "Dark matter is still an unconfirmed model," wrote physicist Don Lincoln in an explainer for Live Science. Yet the detractors have yet to convince the larger field of their ideas. And the latest evidence? It also suggests that dark matter is real

Nobody Knows What Made the Gargantuan Crater on the Dark Side of the Moon

By Brandon Specktor - Senior Writer 

Scientists just debunked the most popular explanation for one of the solar system's largest craters.

The South Pole-Aitken basin (represented by the shades of blue at the center) stretches 1,550 miles (2,500 kilometers) across and is one of the solar system’s largest craters. The dashed circle indicates the spot where researchers found a weird material beneath the basin that contains metal.

Billions of years ago, something slammed into the dark side of the moon and carved out a very, very large hole. Stretching 1,550 miles (2,500 kilometers) wide and 8 miles (13 km) deep, the South Pole-Aitken basin, as the tremendous hole is known to Earthlings, is the oldest and deepest crater on the moon, and one of the largest craters in the entire solar system. 

For decades, researchers have suspected that the gargantuan basin was created by a head-on collision with a very large, very fast meteor. Such an impact would have ripped the moon's crust apart and scattered chunks of lunar mantle across the crater's surface, providing a rare glimpse at what the moon is really made of. (Spoiler: It's not cheese.) That theory gained some credence earlier this year, when China's Yutu-2 rover, which settled into the bottom of the crater aboard the Chang'e 4 lander in January, discovered traces of minerals that seemed to originate from the moon's mantle.

Now, however, a study published Aug. 19 in the journal Geophysical Research Letters throws those results — and the crater's origin story — into question. After analyzing the minerals in six plots of soil at the bottom of the South Pole-Aitken basin, a team of researchers argues that the crater's composition is all crust and no mantle, suggesting that whatever impact opened the crater billions of years ago did not hit hard enough to spray the moon's innards onto the surface. 

• Related: 5 Strange, Cool Things We've Recently Learned About the Moon

"We are not seeing the mantle materials at the landing site as expected," study co-author Hao Zhang, a planetary scientist at the China University of Geosciences, said in a statement. These findings all but rule out a direct collision with a high-velocity meteor and raise the question: What, if not a head-on meteor strike, created the largest crater on the moon?

Lighting up the dark side

In their new study, the researchers used a technique called reflection spectroscopy to identify specific minerals in the lunar soil based on how individual grains reflected visible and near-infrared light. 

Using equipment aboard the Yutu 2 rover, the team conducted reflectance tests on six patches of soil in the first two days following Chang'e 4's landing, venturing about 175 feet (54 meters) away from the lander. With the help of a database that identifies lunar minerals based on a variety of factors — including size, reflectance and degradation due to solar wind — the team estimated the mineral concentration in each of the plots.

A crystalline rock called plagioclase was by far the most abundant mineral in each sample, accounting for 56% to 72% of the crater's composition, the researchers wrote. Formed as primordial oceans of lava cool, plagioclase is extremely common in the crusts of Earth and the moon alike, but it's less abundant in their mantles. Though the team detected other minerals in the crust that are more common in the moon's mantle, such as olivine, these rocks made up too small a fraction of the soil samples to suggest that part of the mantle had broken through the crust.

This mineral makeup complicates the theory that a giant, high-velocity meteor created the South Pole‐Aitken basin billions of years ago, as such an impact almost certainly would have scattered chunks of mantle over the lunar surface. 

So, what, then, created the crater? The researchers did not speculate in the new study. However, prior research has suggested that a renegade space rock is still the culprit, but the hit may not have been so direct. A study published in 2012 in the journal Science argued that a slightly slower-moving meteor could have struck the back of the moon at an angle of about 30 degrees and resulted in an appropriately large crater that never disturbed the moon's mantle. However, those researchers had only simulations to go on. 

If nothing else, the new research suggests that there's a lot more exploring to do in the South Pole‐Aitken basin before an answer becomes apparent. See you on the dark side of the moon.

COULD A SATELLITE FALL ON OUR HEAD?

By Richard Hollingham

“This is not the crazy stuff,” says Sebastian Willems, as the researcher leads me past a glass case full of futuristic models of sleek silver spaceplanes at the German space agency’s (DLR) wind tunnel facility in Cologne. Nor is the crazy stuff to be found in the magnificently retro control gallery with its giant console of gauges, switches and knobs.

We enter a windowless room through a giant blast door, where the walls are charred and the air is rich with the disconcerting smell of explosives. This is where they test the aerodynamics of rocket engines.

But this isn’t the crazy stuff either.

No, Willems’ “crazy” experiment involves using one of the centre’s wind tunnels to simulate what happens when satellites re-enter the atmosphere.

Could sections of dead satellites survive re-entry to hit something or, worse, someone?

“There are a lot of satellites in orbit and they will come down sooner or later,” he says. “They’ll probably break up and the question for us is: what is the chance of an impact?”

In other words, could sections of dead satellites survive re-entry to hit something or, worse, someone?

The wind tunnel being deployed for Willems’ experiment resembles a giant deconstructed vacuum cleaner attached to a pressure cooker, arranged across a concrete floor. The gleaming machine is covered in a mass of pipes and wires. Capable of producing air currents of up to 11 times the speed of sound, the wind tunnel is used for testing the aerodynamics of supersonic and hypersonic aircraft designs.

At its heart is a two-metre-high spherical metal chamber where the test objects are held in special clamps. Instead of using these restraints, however, Willem is releasing objects through the airflow – set at around 3,000km/h (1,860 mph) (more than twice the speed of sound) to simulate atmospheric re-entry.

“The idea is to let objects fall through the flow of air,” says Willems. “We want to look at them in free flight as they drop through the flow.

“We only have a test time of 0.2 seconds,” he says, “but in this time we can take a lot of pictures and measurements.” Data from the experiments will be fed into computer models to improve predictions of how satellites descend to Earth.

Watch how DLR predicted how its Rosat satellite would break up

The 500,000 or so lumps of space debris surrounding our planet range from tiny fragments of metal to entire bus-sized satellites, such as the European Space Agency’s Envisat spacecraft that fell unexpectedly silent in April 2012.

“As a general trend it’s fair to say the number of objects we’re tracking in orbit is going up,” says Hugh Lewis, senior lecturer in aerospace engineering at the University of Southampton in southern England.

It’s going to be a persistent problem for a long time to come – Hugh Lewis, University of Southampton

As the amount of debris in orbit grows, the chances of a piece of space junk hitting other satellites or a crewed spacecraft increases. In fact the International Space Station has to be regularly moved to new orbits to avoid possible collisions.

“We’ve seen objects re-enter the atmosphere since the beginning of the space age,” says Lewis. “Typically one big object re-enters the Earth’s atmosphere every three-to-four days – it’s going to be a persistent problem for a long time to come.”

Although entire satellites cannot survive the fiery return to Earth, many of their larger components do. “You can see things such as propellant tanks,” says Lewis. “These lozenge-shaped objects can be around the size of a small car.”

Most failing satellites are controlled to crash over empty oceans

Willems is not dropping any small cars through the DLR wind tunnel but he does want to examine how larger objects behave as they come apart, to determine which bits survive to reach the ground.

“The airflow around one component will interact with the air flow around other parts,” he says, “which means they might survive differently than if they re-entered on their own.”

So with all this material falling from the skies on a regular basis, why aren’t chunks of space junk littering our landscape, falling through our roofs or hitting us on the head?

The odds of being struck by a chunk of old satellite are tiny

In most cases, the answer is because mission controllers plan how their dying satellites return to Earth – using remaining fuel to push them out of orbit on controlled trajectories to burn up over remote areas of ocean. However, it is the unplanned re-entries of dead spacecraft that are of greater concern.

One of the most recent unplanned re-entries was Nasa’s Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (UARS) in 2011. Even taking into account that 70% of the Earth is covered in ocean and large areas of the world are still sparsely populated, Lewis says there was still a 1 in 2,500 chance that UARS could have caused a casualty somewhere on the planet.

“We start to get concerned when the risk to population is 1 in 10,000,” he says. “That’s not the chance of you being hit – which is obviously extremely remote – but the chance of someone being hit.”

With more satellites, there will be more re-entries

– Hugh Lewis

Given that more than a million people die in road crashes each year, the odds of being struck by a chunk of old satellite are tiny. It still matters, however, as the nation that launches the spacecraft is legally and financially responsible under UN agreements for any damage. Space agencies are therefore keen to keep the risks of objects falling from the sky to a minimum. The experiments at DLR will be used to help better understand and track space debris, so even unplanned re-entries can be more accurately monitored.

With launches getting cheaper and satellites smaller, in the coming decades more and more spacecraft will be launched. “The benefits we can get from utilising space are increasing but the space debris situation is getting worse,” says Lewis. “With more satellites, there will be more re-entries.”

So although you are extremely unlikely to be hit by a plummeting spacecraft, the number of objects falling from the sky will rise. Nothing launched into orbit is gone forever.

What if the aliens we are looking for are AI?

The search for extraterrestrial life has so far assumed our cosmic neighbours are organic. What if we’re dealing with artificial intelligence?

For more than a century we have been broadcasting our presence to the cosmos. This year, the faintest signals from the world’s first major televised event – the Nazi-hosted 1936 Olympics – will have passed several potentially habitable planets. The first season of Game of Thrones has already reached the nearest star beyond our Solar System.

So why hasn’t ET called us back?

There are plenty of obvious answers. Maybe there are no intelligent space aliens in our immediate cosmic vicinity. Perhaps they have never evolved beyond unthinking microbial slime or – based on our transmissions – aliens have concluded it is safer to stay away. There is, however, another explanation: ET is nothing like us.

“If we do find a signal, we shouldn’t expect it’s going to be some sort of soft squishy protoplasmic alien behind the microphone at the other end,” says Seth Shostak, senior astronomer for alien-hunting organisation Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (Seti).

Seti has been actively searching for signs of intelligent extraterrestrial life for more than half a century. Despite tantalising signals (such as this recent one), it has so far drawn a blank. But Shostak believes we should consider looking to our own future to imagine what aliens will be like.

“Perhaps the most significant thing we’re doing is to develop our own successors,” says Shostak. “If we can develop artificial intelligence within a couple of hundred years of inventing radio, any aliens we are likely to hear from have very likely gone past that point.”

The big question is whether the AI goes on to become conscious and define its own goals and decide it doesn’t need the biological creatures that developed it – Stuart Clark

“In other words,” he says, “most of the intelligence in the cosmos, I would venture, is synthetic intelligence and that may disappoint movie goers who expect little grey guys with big eyeballs, no clothes, no hair or sense of humour.”

The argument assumes that the creatures who built the first AIs – grey guys, hyper- intelligent pan-dimensional beings, sentient trees or whatever – are no longer around.

“Well they might be,” Shostak concedes, “but once you develop artificial intelligence you can use that to develop the next generation of thinking thing and so on – within 50 years you not only have a machine that’s far smarter than all the previous machines but certainly smarter than all humans put together.”

“The big question,” says astronomer and author of the Search for Earth’s Twin, Stuart Clark, “is whether the AI goes on to become conscious and define its own goals and decide it doesn’t need the biological creatures that developed it.”

From the self-aware death machines of the Berserker books to the cyborgs of Battlestar Galactica or The Terminator, science fiction certainly has a rich seam of AIs taking over and wiping out their inferior biological creators. It is not, however, necessarily the inevitable path of any technological civilisation. Artificial Intelligence – truly thinking machines with synthetic super-brains – may not even be possible.

“It’s very unclear to me that this is inevitably going to happen,” says Clark. “But the key point is we are looking for something we imagine to be a bit like us and we’re limiting the search as a result.”

Seti could be looking for ET in the wrong place

Seti uses an array of radio telescope dishes in California to search for signals. The receivers are aimed at star systems where planets have been discovered by Earth or space telescopes such as Nasa’s Kepler observatory. These are planets which might have liquid oceans and life-supporting atmospheres – habitats that have made human evolution possible. But machine intelligences could live anywhere.

“That’s the whole problem,” says Shostak. “Not only could they be anywhere, it would make sense for them to go to places in the Universe where there were big sources of energy – if you’re going to do a lot of thinking, a lot of energy helps so maybe that’s the place to look.”

If this is the case, then Seti could be looking for ET in the wrong place. “Instead of having their own fields of radio telescopes,” says Clark, “maybe that money would be better spent equipping every observatory with piggyback equipment that looks at every signal that’s been received and look for repeating patterns.”

Should we be sending signals as well as listening for them?

Whether every observatory would agree to host a Seti sensor is a matter for debate. The technology might, however, reveal some other surprising astronomical discovery. We now know that pulsars are rapidly rotating neutron stars. When Jocelyn Bell discovered the first of these oscillating signals in 1967, only half-jokingly did the University of Cambridge team label it LGM1 for Little Green Men.

In the short term, Seti is likely to continue its search for life on Earth-like planets. “But,” says Shostak, “over the course of time if we can come up with some ideas of where you might find synthetic intelligence, I think they’ll be more and more experiments aimed at doing that.”

Another approach would be to broadcast messages from Earth to target regions of the cosmos. It is a controversial strategy that Stephen Hawking has warned could leave the Earth vulnerable to attack and exploitation. "We only have to look at ourselves to see how intelligent life might develop into something we wouldn’t want to meet,” he warned in 2010.

So are we any closer to discovering whether we are the lone intelligence – AI or not – in the Universe?

“I don’t agree,” Shostak says. “But Seti has no broadcasting capability and the other thing about broadcasting is that even if you do it, it might be a very long time before you get a response – depending how close the aliens are.”

So are we any closer to discovering whether we are the lone intelligence – AI or not – in the Universe? “I don’t think you can ever say there’s nothing there, you can’t prove that negative,” Shostak says. “What you can say is that there’s something wrong with our approach so, for me, it’s very, very early days to think about giving up.”

Clark agrees. “I think Seti should generalise its search as much as possible,” he says. “An answer to ‘yes there’s intelligent life in the Universe’ has profound implications for us and that alone qualifies Seti to carry on.”

PUBLIC INVITED TO VIEW A 100-DRONE AERIAL LIGHT SHOW

A musically choreographed flock of 100 drones will take to

the sky on Friday, September 20, at approximately 9 p.m. just east of the iHotel and Conference Center in Champaign. The special aerial performance is in celebration of the 75^th anniversary of the Department of Aerospace Engineering at the University of Illinois.

Photo provided by Firefly Drone Shows

“When the department was founded in 1944, unmanned aerial vehicles—drones, were the stuff of science fiction. Today, they’re used in all sorts of applications and represent one of the cutting-edge technologies our researchers and students are working on in the department,” said Professor and Interim Head of the Dept. of Aerospace Engineering Greg Elliott. “As we kick off a year-long celebration of aerospace at Illinois, we are particularly excited to be able to share this professional drone show with the community.”

The show is produced by Firefly Drone Shows and will be customized with a nod to the department's 75^th anniversary.

Much like the Champaign-Urbana fireworks display, the 15-minute light show can be viewed from areas nearby. Special permission has been granted for the public to park in designated lots south of the iHotel – specifically, the Caterpillar, Yahoo, and TekMill parking lots. The map showing the parking lots is available online and on the Dept. of Aerospace Engineering’s Facebook page.

The show soundtrack will be simulcast on WPGU radio at 107.1 FM. Audio can also be heard through WPGU app or TuneIn Radio, both of which are available on the App Store or Google Play.

If it rains on the evening of Sept. 20, the drone show will be reschedule

Elliott mentioned another public event scheduled for April 11 as part of the 75^th anniversary year. The department will co-host a showing of the movie Apollo 13 at the Virginia Theatre with a panel of aerospace experts following the film.

Riverbanks Center Marikina successfully pulled a first in the metro to do a fully automated light drones show in public. Enjoy the show! Kaway-Kaway fellow Marikenos! Kakaiba din eh..

A fleet of 1,180 unmanned drones put on a show like no others in south China's Guangzhou. The drones altogether weigh over one tonne. But they are controlled by just one engineer with one computer.

Intel dazzled its Folsom audience on July 15, 2018 with a spectacular light show designed to feature 1,500 drones, in an effort to outdo its previous world record of 1,218 Intel Shooting Star drones. The performance displayed multicolored choreography including bright, fireworks-like orbs.

UFO Tunnel Cloud Seen Over Huntington Pier, California Sept 2019, UFO Sighting News.

taken_from_the_hb_pier_this_strange_cloud_came/

Its a well known fact among UFO researchers that these long clouds with perfect dimensions are tunnels for UFOs to travel through safely and unseen by human eyes. The 1989 Rapid City, South Dakata event of four such clouds all starting over the city documented over 25 727 size glowing foreseen balls of light appearing at the beginning of each of the four tunnels, as if taking turns...as one began moving down the cloud tunnel...another would appear in a cloud tunnel two tunnels over and begin to pulse and then move slowly thought the tunnel, easily seen due to its powerful light hitting the edges of the tunnel from within. Each sat still for about 10 seconds, then began its journey slowly...increasing speed as it moved until it was moving at the speed of a jet as it disappeared over the horizon within the tunnels. 

This UFO tunnel cloud over Huntington, California is the same. It allows UFOs to rise up our of under ground and under water bases and to move across the sky unseen so that they can reach another alien base in a different location on Earth.

Eyewitness states: 

Taken from the HB pier. This strange cloud came from Newport, and was gone as quickly as it arrived. It brought a lot of wind with it. Was very pretty though! Never seen anything like it in my life. Rare occurrence?

Face On Mars Looks Like Beast Of Battle, UFO Sighting News.

Date of discovery: Sept 27, 2019
Location of discovery: Mars
Source photo:

This photo was in false color...to make the red planet red..so thoughtful of NASA. So I put it back into normal color. This is what Mars really looks like. 

I found a face unlike any I have ever found before...understand I've found thousands. This face is part buffalo and part baboon. Its very big, about 2 meters across. Its sitting upright and looking to the distant hills.  The nostrils of the face are big and flat like a baboon nose. The ridges over the eyes are muscular and powerful...showing its aggression and strength. It almost seems like the head of an ancient greek godlike creature. Its open mouth as if it were about to say something...its ears seem to curl like small horns on the side of its head. Not a creature you would like to come face to face with in a dark alley. 

Faces are important to search for. They tell us more about the species that once lived on Mars than any other artifact ever could. Never in history has a more precious and more significant discovery been made than that of the face of an ancient person.

It seems unlikely that the phenomenon is a camera lens flare since underneath the blue beam of light you can see some sort of energy field that lights up the trees.

Could it be that this beam of light, whether man-made or extraterrestrial, is a directional projection of energy coming from an unknown source in our atmosphere?

NASA: geen spoor van ‘gecrashte’ maanlander - HLN.be

Bron: ANP

Tijdens de landing werd het contact verbroken met het onbemande tuig, en tot nog toe is het onduidelijk wat er met het apparaat is gebeurd. Ook de foto’s die het Amerikaanse ruimtevaartinstituut NASA nu heeft vrijgegeven, verschaffen niet echt meer duidelijkheid.

Volgens NASA heeft het betrokken team de lander tot nu toe niet kunnen lokaliseren of fotograferen. “Het was schemer toen het landingsgebied werd gefotografeerd en daarom bedekten grote schaduwen een groot deel van het terrein; het is mogelijk dat de Vikram-lander verborgen ligt in een schaduw”, klinkt het nog. De satelliet van NASA zal in oktober nogmaals langsvliegen, als er meer licht is, en opnieuw foto’s nemen.

De lander, met aan boord een rover (Pragyan), steeg op 22 juli op vanaf aarde en op 7 september verloor het controlecentrum het contact. Volgens NASA is de lander gecrasht. Het was de bedoeling dat Vikram en Pragyan samen de bodem bij de zuidpool van de maan zouden gaan onderzoeken. Daar is misschien waterijs te vinden.
