NSA Agent Reveals That Aliens Are Probably Real, UFO Sighting News.
NSA Agent Reveals That Aliens Are Probably Real, UFO Sighting News.
Former NSA employee Edward Snowden stated, "there are probably aliens." And then went on to say, “I went looking on the network, right,” he said on Wednesday's episode. “I couldn’t find anything. If it’s hidden, and it could be hidden, it’s hidden really damn well, especially for people on the inside.” So even a former employee of the NSA believes intelligent aliens to be real, yet he was never deep enough into the network to actually find such evidence. Its not as if every single NSA and CIA and NASA agent knows about them and have seen the files. I would estimate that 1 out of 1,000 employees have actually worked with or had access to those files. For example as of 2019, NASA employees 17,219 employees. That means 17 people at NASA actually have knowledge and access to information of intelligent alien life. So...yeah...its a bit hard to get to that inner circle. But the day will come, when one of the inner circle will reveal the truth to the public. Scott C. Waring

I was photographing the morning Moon, and after I returned home, I looked at the Photo and then I saw that I had photographed a UFO.
Two UFOs Battle at Each Other in Australian Sky, Locals Claim
Two UFOs Battle at Each Other in Australian Sky, Locals Claim
While many UFO sightings involve spotting circles and dots in the sky, Australians Rob and Phil Tindale insist they witnessed a fight and subsequent crash as children. Although their encounter dates back to 1980, they don’t believe they saw anything else but aliens.
They firmly believe they saw two UFOs in the sky outside their Adelaide Hills home nearly 40 years ago, when they were just ten years old. They claimed to have spotted a bright yellow object and a red light thing.
According to the brothers, they spotted the first one over the tree line at the end of the valley from the ground before the appearance of a red one that tried to charge at the yellow UFO. Eventually, the yellow craft sped off at extreme speed to their right and vanished behind the hill. The mysterious red object had also gone, but they were not sure if it followed the yellow object or simply left.
They heard no engine noise in the area that was less populated and sparsely treed.
The pair woke their parents up, but they did not do anything and sent them back to bed. However, their grandmother read an article in their local paper titled “Aussie Sure UFO Damaged Trees,” talking about an alleged spacecraft crashing on the same night when they witnessed the bizarre aerial battle.
Reporting the crash was Daryl Browne, who claimed to have heard a tree creaking and groaning. He said that he saw an eight-metre yellow aircraft when he approached the site and called the police. However, the object was gone by the time he and authorities had got there, leaving no traces but damages.
An image of what is believed to be Norton's original 1977 artifact.

The object reportedly matches a similar item that CSM James Norton allegedly found at a UFO crash site.
This story comes courtesy of paranormal investigator Paul Dale Roberts of HPI Paranormal in Sacaramento who recently received a call from a woman named Stephanie Fuller.
She claimed that her fiance - a maintenance worker at an apartment block - had discovered a very strange object while cleaning up the home of a WWII veteran who had recently died.
The man had been a compulsive hoarder and it is unclear how he had obtained the object.
After researching the artifact, Fuller came across the story of Command Sergeant Major James Norton who in 1977 had a very strange encounter with a UFO at Fort Benning, Georgia.
On September 14th of that year, a group of men had been engaged in a live fire training exercise when a number of orbs appeared in the sky followed by a large triangular-shaped craft.
Shortly afterwards, many of the soldiers became ill and reported periods of missing time.
According to the report, the object, whatever it was, had seemingly crash-landed in the vicinity and Norton was able to surreptitiously retrieve a small piece of it.
The metal fragment was said to be adorned with strange symbols and exhibited peculiar properties.
Norton later posted a photograph online before burying the artifact on his property for safe-keeping.
It was this photograph that Fuller would later match to the object that was found in the veteran's flat.
Ultimately, it's difficult to know what to make of this story as there's no way to corroborate Norton or Fuller's claims and unless tests can be conducted on the metal, its origins cannot be proven either.
As things stand, it makes for interesting reading, but it's authenticity is open to interpretation.
You can view an article about Norton's 1977 encounter -here.
A larger image of the artifact he found can be viewed -here, and Fuller's -here.
Update:
It turns out that the artifact in the photographs bears more than a passing resemblance to an alien artifact prop from Steven Spielberg's 2002 science-fiction miniseries 'Taken'.
You can check out a photograph of the prop -here. Look familiar ?
Big thanks to our forum members for getting to the bottom of this one.

Vrouw claimt ‘buitenaards voorwerp’ te hebben gevonden. Zoek de overeenkomsten
Paranormaal onderzoeker Paul Dale Roberts van HPI Paranormal kreeg onlangs een telefoontje van een vrouw genaamd Stephanie Fuller.
Zij beweert dat haar verloofde een heel vreemd voorwerp heeft gevonden toen hij het huis van een veteraan uit de Tweede Wereldoorlog aan het schoonmaken was die pas is overleden.
De man was een verzamelaar en het is niet bekend hoe hij de hand op het voorwerp heeft weten te leggen.
Driehoekig vaartuig
Fuller begon onderzoek te doen naar het voorwerp en kwam uit bij sergeant-majoor James Norton, die in 1977 een UFO had gezien toen hij gestationeerd was op Fort Benning in Georgia.
Op 14 september dat jaar zag Norton tijdens een militaire oefening een aantal lichtbollen in de lucht die gevolgd werden door een groot driehoekig vaartuig.
Kort daarna werden veel van de soldaten op de basis ziek en konden ze zich niet meer herinneren wat ze hadden gedaan.
Vreemde symbolen
Eén van de objecten zou in de buurt van de basis zijn gecrasht en Norton zou het bewuste voorwerp vervolgens hebben buitgemaakt.
Het metalen fragment staat vol vreemde symbolen en heeft opmerkelijke eigenschappen.
Norton zette later een foto van het voorwerp op internet en begroef het in zijn tuin.
Precies overeen
Het voorwerp op deze foto komt volgens Fuller precies overeen met het voorwerp dat in de woning van de veteraan is gevonden.
Een artikel over de waarneming van Norton in 1977 vind je hier (The Costa Rican Times).
The China Lunar Exploration Program has released a photo from the Yutu 2 moon rover that reveals the likely nature of a previously unidentified material.
The rover — part of the Chang'e 4 mission, which in January completed the first-ever soft landing on the far side of the moon — made the discovery in July. Earlier reports on the few published details captured widespread interest.
The photo taken by Yutu 2's main camera shows the center of a crater containing material that is colored differently than its surroundings and that contains bright spots. The image was released by Our Space, a Chinese-language science-outreach publication, via its Weibo social media account on Oct. 8.
While gaining the attention of the Yutu 2 team, the material does not appear altogether mysterious, as claimed by Chinese media.
Clive Neal, a lunar scientist at the University of Notre Dame in Indiana, told Space.com that the new image reinforces the previous suggestion that the material is broadly similar in nature to a sample of impact glass found during the Apollo 17 mission in 1972.
Sample 70019, collected by astronaut and trained geologist Harrison "Jack" Schmitt, is made of dark, broken fragments of minerals cemented together and black, shiny glass. Impact melt glass can be created or modified through high-speed meteor impacts on a planetary surface.
Dan Moriarty, NASA Postdoctoral Program fellow at the Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, has analyzed and processed the image, seeking clues as to its precise nature. While this compressed image lacks a lot of the useful information a raw image would contain, Moriarty said he could gain insights by adjusting parameters.
"The shape of the fragments appears fairly similar to other materials in the area. What this tells us is that this material has a similar history as the surrounding material," Moriarty said. "It was broken up and fractured by impacts on the lunar surface, just like the surrounding soil.
"I think the most reliable information here is that the material is relatively dark. It appears to have brighter material embedded within the larger, darker regions, although there is a chance that is light glinting off a smooth surface," Moriarty told Space.com, adding that the material is likely heterogeneous in composition.
The image also gives an idea of the origin of the substance. Moriarty said the material may have been excavated by the crater-forming impact or it may be a breccia, containing highlands crust, glass, impactor material and basalts from the volcanic "seas" known as mare. "But we're definitely looking at a rock," Moriarty concluded.
Yutu 2 has been making its way west from the Chang'e 4 landing site, which is situated within the roughly 110-mile-wide (180 kilometers) Von Kármán Crater. On July 28, during Lunar Day 8 of the mission, the rover came across a crater about 6.5 feet (2 meters) in diameter containing a material deemed to have an unusual color and luster.
The initial discovery was made by a Yutu 2 drive team member checking images from the rover's main camera. The drive team consulted lunar scientists, resulting in the decision to postpone plans to have Yutu 2 continue west and instead order the rover to check out the strange material.
Our Space, which announced the findings on Aug. 17, used the term "胶状物" ("jiao zhuang wu"), which can be translated as "gel-like." This description sparked wide interest and speculation among lunar scientists.
The first images of the crater and its contents came from an obstacle-avoidance camera. These images did not, however, have a high resolution, and they included colored shapes likely related to Yutu 2's science instruments, further obscuring the material.
Yutu 2 made a number of approaches to the material to analyze it using the rover's Visible and Near-Infrared Spectrometer (VNIS), which detects light that is scattered or reflected off materials to reveal their makeup.
The small adjustments in orientation and roving tested the rover and its team, with the danger that Yutu 2 could fall into and become stuck in the crater. The movement of the sun across the sky also altered shadowing and affected results.
A second set of measurements, taken in August, was apparently more successful than the first, but results from VNIS have not been announced.
Yutu 2 has driven a total of 950 feet (289 m) across 10 lunar days. Yutu 2 and the Chang'e 4 lander power down to hibernate during the roughly two-week-long lunar nights, when temperatures can drop to as low as minus 310 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 190 degrees Celsius).
Sunrise over the landing site in Von Kármán Crater occurred Oct. 21; Yutu 2 will wake for Lunar Day 11 on Oct. 22, and the lander will do so about 24 hours later.

China geeft nieuwe foto vrij van mysterieuze gel op de maan. Bekijk ‘m hier
China heeft een nieuwe foto gepubliceerd van de vreemde gel-achtige substantie die rover Yutu-2 op de achterkant van de maan is tegengekomen.
Yutu-2 bevindt zich in het 2500 kilometer lange Zuidpool-Aitken-bekken, een inslagkrater, en is in januari dit jaar op de maan geland.
De rover stuitte op de vreemde gel nadat het wagentje een glimmend object had gespot.
Nieuwe foto
De gel heeft een opvallende vorm en kleur, waardoor de substantie afsteekt tegen de rest van het landschap.
De mysterieuze substantie bevindt zich middenin de krater.
In een poging het mysterie te ontrafelen, heeft het Chinese ruimtevaartagentschap een nieuwe foto van de substantie vrijgegeven waarop meer details te zien zijn.
Mogelijke verklaring
Eén mogelijke verklaring is dat de substantie een soort donker glas is dat zich tijdens de inslag van een asteroïde heeft gevormd.
Eenzelfde soort glas zou in 1972 door Apollo 17-astronauten zijn gevonden.
“De vorm van de fragmenten komt aardig overeen met die van andere materialen in het gebied,” zei Dan Moriarty van de NASA, die de foto heeft geanalyseerd.
Dichterbij
“Dit materiaal is verspreid door inslagen op het maanoppervlak, net als het bodemmateriaal in de omgeving,” zei hij.
Als de rover nog dichterbij kan komen, zou dit mysterie voor eens en voor altijd opgelost kunnen worden.

Here's What China's Yutu 2 Rover Found on the Far Side of the Moon (Photos) http://dlvr.it/RGjYlG
Former NASA astronaut Jerry Linenger recently shared that he has encountered quite a number of anomalies while staying at the International Space Station, prompting the theory that there is indeed alien life outside of Earth.
During a live interview, Linenger admitted that he encountered various anomalies or unexplained sightings during his five-month stay at the Space Station Mir. He revealed some of the bizarre things he saw at that time. ”Well I’m going to stick my neck out, but how many people think I saw a UFO when I was up there? Well I did, I saw things in the true sense of the word, unidentified flying objects – don’t take me out of context there – no aliens. But I saw stuff that made me call my crewmates over and say ‘what the heck is that?',” the astronaut said.
Linenger, a retired captain of the U.S. Navy Medical Corps and a former NASA astronaut, stayed at the Space Station Mir which operated from 1986 to 2001. The former astronaut was actually the first American to do a spacewalk from a foreign space station while wearing a non-American made spacesuit. Aside from Linenger, two other Russian astronauts also spent five months on the space station situated 50 million miles about Earth while orbiting the planet 2,000 times.
“We’d look and sometimes it was metallic, it was like a spoon if you were off in the distance and in the province of space good luck figuring out if it’s a really small object close-by, something floated out of the airlock,” he said.
Linenger admitted that it’s usually difficult to tell if something he saw in space is just nearby or somewhere far, making it doubly difficult to determine if he is seeing a legit UFO or just some kind of space junk.
“Is it something 100,000 miles away that’s the size of a big spacecraft? It’s very hard to distinguish that, usually it was something you could kind of explain, maybe an external tank or something like that. But you would see things and you go ‘wow, that’s cool – I don’t know what that was exactly, but it’s not a satellite’.”
The former astronaut admitted that amidst all his training, he would usually feel excited when he sees some odd objects from the Space Station. “You definitely, just like when you see something weird [on Earth], call everyone over like ‘I don’t care what you’re doing, get over here and take a look at this.”
It’s not all fun and excitement, however. The astronaut also shared how he and his colleagues faced some challenges while onboard the space station. The most severe happened when a fire broke out on the orbiting spacecraft and when systems controlling important functions such as oxygen, carbon dioxide and the station’s cooling mechanism malfunctioned.

Wat is dat in vredesnaam? NASA-astronaut geschokt door wat hij in de ruimte zag
Wat is dat in vredesnaam? NASA-astronaut geschokt door wat hij in de ruimte zag
De gepensioneerde NASA-astronaut Jerry Linenger heeft onthuld dat hij in de ruimte meerdere keren vreemde dingen heeft gezien.
Linenger verbleef in 1997 in totaal 132 dagen aan boord van het Russische ruimtestation Mir.
In een recent interview met Bild vertelde hij wat hij gedurende die periode heeft gezien.
Zo vreemd
“Hoeveel mensen denken dat ik een UFO heb gezien toen ik daar was?” vroeg hij. “Nou, ik kan je vertellen dat ik ze heb gezien. Ik heb ongeïdentificeerde vliegende objecten gezien.”
Hij benadrukte dat dat niet per definitie betekent dat hij aliens heeft gezien.
“Maar ik zag wel dingen die zo vreemd waren dat ik mijn collega’s riep en vroeg wat het in vredesnaam was,” klonk het.
Heel lastig
Linenger maakte buiten Mir ruimtewandelingen met twee kosmonauten.
Meerdere keren zagen de bemanningsleden iets vreemds in de ruimte, maar ze konden niet vaststellen of het om een groot of een klein object ging.
De astronaut zei dat het heel lastig was om de afstand tot de objecten te schatten.
Geen satelliet
In sommige gevallen was het iets verklaarbaars, zoals een externe tank of iets dergelijks, maar in andere gevallen was het iets onbekends, aldus Linenger.
“Ik zag dingen en dacht bij mezelf ‘wauw, gaaf, ik weet niet wat dat was, maar het was in ieder geval geen satelliet’,” zei hij.
New Measurement of Hubble Constant Adds to Cosmic Mystery
New Measurement of Hubble Constant Adds to Cosmic Mystery
New measurements of the rate of expansion of the universe, led by astronomers at the University of California, Davis, add to a growing mystery: Estimates of a fundamental constant made with different methods keep giving different results.
“There’s a lot of excitement, a lot of mystification and from my point of view it’s a lot of fun,” said Chris Fassnacht, professor of physics at UC Davis and a member of the international SHARP/H0LICOW collaboration, which made the measurement using the W.M. Keck telescopes in Hawaii.
Images made with the W.M. Keck Observatory in Hawaii show how light from two distant galaxies is distorted into multiple images. UC Davis astronomers have made a new estimate of the Hubble Constant, which describes the expansion of the universe, by observing these distorted images.
The Hubble constant describes the expansion of the universe, expressed in kilometers per second per megaparsec. It allows astronomers to figure out the size and age of the universe and the distances between objects.
Graduate student Geoff Chen, Fassnacht and colleagues looked at light from extremely distant galaxies that is distorted and split into multiple images by the lensing effect of galaxies (and their associated dark matter) between the source and Earth. By measuring the time delay for light to make its way by different routes through the foreground lens, the team could estimate the Hubble constant.
Using adaptive optics technology on the W.M. Keck telescopes in Hawaii, they arrived at an estimate of 76.8 kilometers per second per megaparsec. As a parsec is a bit over 30 trillion kilometers and a megaparsec is a million parsecs, that is an excruciatingly precise measurement. In 2017, the H0LICOW team published an estimate of 71.9, using the same method and data from the Hubble Space Telescope. Hints of new physics
The new SHARP/H0LICOW estimates are comparable to that by a team led by Adam Reiss of Johns Hopkins University, 74.03, using measurements of a set of variable stars called the Cepheids. But it’s quite a lot different from estimates of the Hubble constant from an entirely different technique based on the cosmic microwave background. That method, based on the afterglow of the Big Bang, gives a Hubble constant of 67.4, assuming the standard cosmological model of the universe is correct.
An estimate by Wendy Freedman and colleagues at the University of Chicago comes close to bridging the gap, with a Hubble constant of 69.8 based on the luminosity of distant red giant stars and supernovae.
A difference of 5 or 6 kilometers per second over a distance of over 30 million trillion kilometers might not seem like a lot, but it’s posing a challenge to astronomers. It might provide a hint to a possible new physics beyond the current understanding of our universe.
On the other hand, the discrepancy could be due to some unknown bias in the methods. Some scientists had expected that the differences would disappear as estimates got better, but the difference between the Hubble constant measured from distant objects and that derived from the cosmic microwave background seems to be getting more and more robust.
“More and more scientists believe there’s a real tension here,” Chen said. “If we try to come up with a theory, it has to explain everything at once.”

Odd unidentified aerial phenomenon floating over Downtown San Diego
Odd unidentified aerial phenomenon floating over Downtown San Diego
On October 22, 2019, Nene Angulo while driving in traffic saw an unidentified aerial phenomenon floating over Downtown San Diego. The object wasn't moving at all, just floating there.
Nene: It's certainly not a blimp, plane, helicopter or a cloud. I think the UAP may have contributed to the extra heavy traffic that morning. I shot it, and uploaded it straight from my phone.
It probably isn't a black hole, if it exists at all. But two physicists think we should check to see if it's a black hole anyway
An illustration shows what Planet 9 might look like orbiting far from our sun. Now, at least two physicists think this picture is wrong and it's actually a black hole.
Two physicists think that we should check to see if there's an ancient, grapefruit-size black hole hiding out in our solar system. And that tiny, heavy object might in fact take the place of a theoretical planet that some researchers think might be tugging on other objects in our solar system, the so-called Planet 9.
Does that mean there's really a black hole hiding out in our corner of space? No, the researchers said.
But they've assembled an argument for its existence that they think is compelling enough to be worth looking into.
Here's how it goes:
Far away in the outer reaches of the solar system, past where Neptune, our most distant known planet, orbits, there are a handful of small objects that behave strangely. These "trans-Nuptunian objects" (TNOs) cluster together in unusual ways, and they tend to spin around axises that point toward one broad swath of the sky, away from the larger known planets. Also, critically, the TNOs orbit in a different plane than the eight known planets. That suggests that something else is tugging on them with its gravity.
Some astronomers have looked at that strange pattern, run some calculations, and concluded that there must be another planet out there, one that’s 10 to 20 times the mass of Earth and following a wonky orbit that carries it many hundreds of times Earth's distance from the sun. It's a bizarre theory, usually called "Planet 9," but one that astronomers take seriously. The hunt for Planet 9 has gone on for years, with astronomers using visual light and infrared telescopes to scan the outermost parts of the solar system.
"The thing that we realized is that the gravity is the important thing," said Jakub Scholtz, a physicist at Durham University in England and one of the two astronomers behind the idea. "It doesn't need to be a planet. The most mundane, or maybe the most sane explanation is that it's a planet. But as theoretical physicists, we know that early-universe cosmology can very readily introduce a range of very interesting new theoretical bodies — one of which… is primordial black holes."
Primordial black holes are different
Usually, when we talk about black holes, we mean enormous objects formed when giant stars collapse into themselves, trapping their masses in infinitely dense singularities, surrounded by giant "event horizons" from which no light can escape. But some cosmologists believe that in the first moments of the universe, when everything was hot and dense and rushing away from the Big Bang, and no stars had formed yet, black holes were already emerging.
These primordial ghosts of the universe's creation would have formed when chunks of that early matter were crushed together so tightly that they condensed into singularities.
"That part of the universe is so dense, it just becomes a black hole," Scholtz told Live Science.
These black holes would be smaller than stellar black holes formed from collapsing massive stars, said James Unwin, a physicist at the University of Chicago and co-author of the paper. And according to some models, they'd be just a handful of times heavier than Earth.
A black hole of that mass wouldn't look like much of anything, Unwin said. Its event horizon would be tiny — about the size of a grapefruit if it's five times the mass of Earth, and the size of a bowling ball at 10 times Earth's mass. But gravity is gravity. If a PBH found its way into our solar system, that black hole would orbit the sun like a planet would, and it would tug on dwarf planets and asteroids just like the theoretical Planet 9 would. There wouldn't be any way to tell the effects of a planet's gravity from that of a primordial black hole of the same mas
The same models that produce primordial black holes, Unwin said, also offer the best explanation for how the Higgs mechanism (thought to imbue mass on all particles) and other basic physics emerged into the universe. So there's good reason to think that these things exist, whether or not any have since ended up in our solar system or any other star system. But no one's ever actually found one.
However, there's some recent evidence to suggest that they might really exist, Unwin said.
"I think this is fairly unknown-about in the community," Unwin said, "and we're really trying to bring it to wide attention."
There's an experiment called the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE) in Poland. It scans the sky for evidence of gravitational "microlensing," places in space where a planet or some other object's gravity has bent the path of a ray of light, causing it to hit Earth. In the cases of the stars studied by OGLE, this light-bending just looks like the star momentarily brightening.
But OGLE has reported something strange, they said. Six times, it has spotted very brief microlensing events, less than 0.3 days long, suggestive of very fast-moving objects between 0.5 Earth masses and 20 Earth masses zipping past stars. This isn't how planets look to OGLE, Unwin said, and there's good reason to suspect that the six objects might be primordial black holes. (Another possibility is very-fast-moving "free floating planets" moving around outside star systems, but current planetary models wouldn't predict that many such planets zooming around the universe.)
If those six objects were small, ancient black holes, Scholtz said, then that means such black holes aren't so rare in the universe. You wouldn't expect them to show up in every star system, he said. And most would float freely through space. But it wouldn't be terribly shocking if our system got lucky and picked one up, he said.
The Planet 9-black hole theory then explains two mysteries: the trans-Neptunian object anomaly and the OGLE anomaly.
"These two things point at the same mass range," Unwin said. "This is the thing that made us quite excited."
"That's the key thing," Scholtz added. "The missing planet is somewhere between maybe five and 20 Earth masses, and the OGLE evidence points somewhere between 0.5 and 20 Earth masses. So this is quite a coincidence."
If the TNO anomaly does actually turn out to be a black hole, Unwin said, that's a huge deal. It would prove the existence of primordial black holes, and nail down a mass range for them that would explain when exactly in the history of the universe they formed -- which would then explain how a great many other bits of physics came into being.
Does that mean either researcher is convinced that there's a black hole in our solar system, or even thinks there's probably one out there? No, they both said. It's possible that the TNO anomaly doesn't really point to a single heavy object, or that the OGLE anomaly is a fluke, or the result of faulty equipment.
Does Planet 9 even exist?
Some astronomers doubt there's anything out there at all.
"I don't know enough about PBHs [primordial black holes] to know how much stock to put in the plausibility of having one in the distant solar system," said Nathan Kaib, an astronomer at the University of Oklahoma who wasn't involved in Unwin and Scholtz's work. "However, I will say that I'm somewhat skeptical of the necessity of Planet 9."
The TNO (trans-Neptunian object) orbital anomaly seems to be real, he said, but this idea of the planet hiding out there beyond the TNOs doesn't explain it that well. And, as he wrote in a paper published July 2 in The Astronomical Journal, you'd expect Planet 9 to create other anomalies that haven't turned up in the data.
"This leaves me somewhat skeptical of the existence of the planet, and if the PBH is supposed to produce the same ... effects as the planet, I guess I'd be equally skeptical of it too, but this is pretty independent of the idea of PBHs themselves," Kaib said.
But some astronomers still do think there's a planet out there. And that evidence is strong enough, and the hunt for a planet has gone on long enough, Unwin said, that it's at least worth exploring whether some planet-like object that’s not a planet is causing the effect.
One way to check, they suggested in a not-yet-peer-reviewed paper posted online in the preprint server arXiv, is to look for signs of "dark matter annihilation." Theories of PBHs suggest that they'd be surrounded by dense halos of dark matter that could survive partially intact even after billions of years of wandering the universe. And some theories of dark matter suggest that sometimes its particles "annihilate" and turn into gamma-ray photons. We could potentially detect those photons on Earth.
(Such a detection would conclusively solve a third giant physics mystery, for those keeping track : whether dark matter can turn into particles we recognize from the luminous universe.)
Our telescopes may have already picked up those gamma-ray photons, the researchers wrote. So, their next step is to look through data from the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, which scans wide patches of sky for the particles, to see if they can find any hints of one.
On the off chance the gamma-ray hunt does turn up a tiny black hole, Scholtz said, the possibilities are endless. We could even send a mission there, he said.
"This is potentially an opportunity to play with a real black hole," he said. "How exciting is that?"
Japan’s Yonaguni Ruins May Hold the Key to a Sunken Civilization
Japan’s Yonaguni Ruins May Hold the Key to a Sunken Civilization
The mystery of the lost continent of Atlantis has puzzled researchers for centuries, as growing evidence supports the theory that an advanced civilization may have been destroyed and gone unnoticed by mainstream archeology. This antediluvian civilization is assumed to have been located somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean and is thought to have been the progenitor of ancient civilizations like those in Egypt and India. But could there have been another sunken continent from that era that predates Atlantis? The Yonaguni ruins might provide an answer.
The Yonaguni Monument
In 1985, a Japanese diver named Kihachiro Aratake was exploring the seafloor off the southern shore of Yonaguni-Jima island, the western-most island in the Ryukyu archipelago of Japan. Aratake came across what appeared to be the sunken ruins of an ancient, megalithic, stepped pyramid, similar to the ziggurats built in ancient Sumer. Since his discovery, the provenance of the ruins has been debated as to whether they are man-made or naturally occurring, due to the possibility of natural geological terracing.
Dr. Masaaki Kimura from the University of Ryukyu is the biggest proponent for the theory supporting the artificiality of the ruins. Surprisingly, Dr. Robert Schoch is one archeologist who has contended Kimura’s theory, despite his support for the Sphinx water erosion hypothesis. Although, Schoch has conceded that he doesn’t perceive Yonaguni to be a closed case and that he hasn’t spent as much time diving there, compared to Kimura’s 15 years.
According to Kimura, the Yonaguni monument appears to depict carvings of animals and people as well as the remnants of a carved face, which he compares to the Moai heads on Easter Island. At the end of the last ice age, Yonaguni would have been connected to what is now mainland China. It is likely that the fate of the civilization that built the Yonaguni pyramid, was sealed by a massive tectonic event that triggered a tsunami and subsequent sea level rise.
Since the end of the last Ice Age, sea levels have risen some 40 meters, causing drastic changes in topography and lending credibility to the theory that there may have been cities or even continents that disappeared into the sea. Based on stalactite found in caves near the ruins, Kimura has calculated the Yonaguni pyramid to be at least 6,000 years old when it sank, with the potential to be up to 10,000 years old including the time prior to flooding. The oldest recorded flooding event at Yonaguni occurred in the late 1700s, during which a tsunami ravaged the island with 130 foot waves. This combination of sea level rise and catastrophic climatic events were likely the cause of this ancient city’s demise.
An interesting discovery has been made when looking at the orientation of the angles in the Yonaguni ruins. One researcher believes that the radial lines, when extended out from the ruins, might potentially outline a territory in the Pacific. This theory employs geoglyphology, or the study of coded maps and messaging in ancient geoglyphs, and has drawn out the radial lines of the Yonaguni ruins. The Faram Research Foundation’s work shows lines that depict a map very similar to the territory sought after by Japan during WWII.
The area extends from Yonaguni and the South China Sea, up to the tip of Alaska’s archipelago, down to Hawaii and back over encompassing Indonesia and Burma (Myanmar). This territory, some believe, could be that which was occupied by the lost continent of Mu, a lost civilization larger and older than Atlantis.
The Lost Continent of Mu
The lost civilization of Mu, is thought to have spanned a large swath of the Pacific Ocean. Reaching from the Philippines Sea all the way to Easter Island, Mu would have encompassed most of the small islands in the mid-Pacific, including Guam, Fiji, Christmas Island, Midway and Hawaii. The conception of Mu was first proposed by Augustus LePlongeon in the 19th century who was the first explorer to photographically document the ancient Mayan city of Chichen Itza. It was there that he supposedly learned of the lost continent of Mu through his translation of the ancient Mayan Troano Codex.
LePlongeon’s translation showed that the Mayan civilization was aware of and predated the ancient Egyptian and Greek civilizations, while also mentioning another civilization that was lost in a cataclysmic event. But LePlongeon’s account is thought to be spurious due his use of a false translation of the ancient Mayan language.
But a later account of the ancient continent from a book published in 1926, by James Churchward, is thought to possibly carry more veracity. Churchward was an English occultist who spent several decades living and studying with a group of mystic priests in India. There he was shown esoteric tablets that detailed the erstwhile civilization and its supposed 64 million inhabitants called the Nacaal, who lived roughly 50,000 years ago. The tablets contained a multitude of vignettes, or a series of pictographs that supposedly told the story of Mu. In order to properly transcribe the vignettes, Churchward had to study an ancient language called Naga-Maya, known to only a handful of people in the world.
Although it is difficult to conceive of a continent this size to have just disappeared underwater, some believe that the Yonaguni monument may be a key to the explanation. Though Churchward’s translation didn’t garner as much notoriety as the search for Atlantis, some believe his interpretation of Mu to be one in the same with the lost city of Lemuria, popularized by Russian theosophist, Helena Blavatsky. Blavatsky’s depiction of the Lemurian people shares many similarities with Churchward’s account, that she also claims to have learned from an esoteric text given to her by Indian mahatmas.
Were Lemuria and Mu one in the same, or two disparate, ancient civilizations that fostered the mysteriously advanced ancient cultures we’re aware of today. While we have been obsessed with the search for Atlantis, it appears that there could be evidence of an older society that may hold clues to the knowledge of our ancient ancestors. Could the Yonaguni ruins be the key to uncovering these antediluvian people?
Zijn deze Japanse ruïnes de sleutel tot een verzonken beschaving? Aanwijzingen stapelen zich op
In 1987 deed de Japanse duiker Kihachiro Aratake een schokkende ontdekking in de buurt van het eiland Yonaguni.
Op enkele tientallen meters onder het wateroppervlak stuitte hij op een enorm complex van rotsformaties.
Experts spraken van één van de grootste ontdekkingen in de geschiedenis van onderwaterarcheologie.
Verschillende monumenten
“Het intrigerende aan het complex bij Yonaguni is dat er veel verschillende monumenten zijn te vinden die vlak bij elkaar liggen,” zegt schrijver Graham Hancock.
“In mijn ogen is dit het werk van mensen en zijn ze niet ontstaan als gevolg van de invloed van de oceaan op het gesteente,” vervolgt hij.
Er zijn volgens emeritus hoogleraar Masaaki Kimura van de Ryukyus-universiteit in Japan meerdere redenen om aan te nemen dat we hier niet te maken hebben met een natuurlijke formatie.
Mensenhanden
Zo werden er op de plek meerdere stukken gereedschap en gegraveerde stenen aangetroffen.
“Er is geen twijfel over mogelijk dat dit [complex] is gemaakt door mensenhanden,” zegt professor Kimura.
Twee voetbalvelden
Het complex, dat zich op een diepte van zo’n 30 meter bevindt, bestaat onder meer uit een trappiramide die even groot is als twee voetbalvelden.
Volgens Hancock waren de primitieve beschavingen die in de steentijd leefden niet in staat om zo’n enorm complex te realiseren.
Een volgende stap in dat proces is nu het registreren van nieuwe patenten door de Amerikaanse marine van technologieën die niet van deze aarde zijn.
We weten dat er een geheime ruimtevloot bestaat en dat de mensheid al vele malen verder is met technologische ontwikkelingen dan ons wordt verteld. De informatie die we daarover hebben is afkomstig van klokkenluiders en hackers zoals Gary McKinnon.
We zijn nu op het punt aanbeland waar deze geheime ruimtevloot minder geheim zal worden en dat betekent dat er in sneltreinvaart een soort witwasoperatie moet plaatsvinden. Een operatie waarbij het grote publiek stap voor stap kennis zal maken met de ruimtevloot.
Er ontstond vorig jaar veel opwinding en een jubelstemming onder ufo liefhebbers vanwege een stroom aan publiciteit over waarnemingen van Amerikaanse marinepiloten. Hierna nog eens één van die video’s:
De beelden zijn honderd procent echt en ze zijn afkomstig van de Amerikaanse overheid.
Naar aanleiding van deze onthullingen is er veel over gesproken, ook door Amerikaanse politici in het Congres, en is er overleg geweest met de marine.
Het gevolg van dat alles is dat de Amerikaanse marine nu heeft aangekondigd dat ze nieuwe procedures zullen hanteren, waarbij piloten en ander personeel vreemde dingen kunnen rapporteren.
Dit gebeurde tot nu toe slechts incidenteel want piloten hielden veelal hun mond dicht omdat het melden van dit soort incidenten vaak niet echt bevorderlijk was voor hun carrière. Net zo goed als dit bij civiele piloten het geval is.
Het is geen toeval dat dit nu gebeurt en ook niet dat die beelden juist van de marine afkomstig zijn. We schreven hierover uitgebreid in een ander artikel.
Het verhaal dat wij schreven wordt in het volgende interview bevestigd door de voormalige Amerikaanse staatssecretaris en Wall Street bankier Catherine Austin Fitts. In een gesprek met Dark Journalist Daniel Liszt legt ook zij uit dat het gezocht moet worden in de letterlijk biljoenen dollars die vanuit het Pentagon zijn verdwenen naar het geheime ruimteprogramma.
De "Disclosure" die nu plaatsvindt is onderdeel van een shift om het geheime ruimteprogramma dat is gefinancierd met de verduisterde biljoenen dollars vanuit het Pentagon, langzaam maar zeker een iets meer open programma te maken en de bevolking te laten wennen aan het feit dat er steeds snellere en meer spectaculaire ontwikkelingen in de ruimte zullen plaatsvinden. De komende jaren zal je dan ook "fenomenale ontwikkelingen" zien in de ruimte en zal er naast al het verduisterde geld ook steeds meer ruimte komen in de bestaande begrotingen voor expansie in de ruimte.
En dat is het punt waarop we nu zijn aangekomen. Fenomenale ontwikkelingen zoals de Amerikaanse marine die patenten registreert, gebaseerd op buitenaardse technologie.
Er wordt uiteraard niet verteld dat het hier gaat om buitenaardse technologie, maar als een marine onderzoeker opeens vreemde patentaanvragen doet op basis van wat men noemt exotische technieken, dan gaan er wel wat alarmbellen rinkelen.
Technieken die op dit moment helemaal niet bestaan, niet in de civiele luchtvaart en ook niet in de militaire. Technieken die je doorgaans alleen tegenkomt bij ufo-fanaten. Technieken die zijn gebaseerd op hoge elektromagnetische krachtvelden, revolutionaire aandrijfsystemen en een hybride aerospace onderwater voertuig.
Zo gaat de meest recente patentaanvraag van de marine over de praktische toepassing van een fusiereactor in een vliegend object, waardoor het enorme snelheden kan bereiken en manoeuvres uitvoeren die normaal gesproken niet kunnen.
Dit is slechts één van de vele mysterieuze patenten die door de marine zijn ingediend. De aanvraag komt altijd op naam van marine onderzoeker Salvatore Cezar Pais. Dit schijnt een soort mysterieuze wetenschapper te zijn die over fenomenale kennis beschikt. Hoe Pais aan al die kennis komt, wordt uiteraard nergens vermeld, maar al zijn patentaanvragen zijn revolutionair.
In de wereld van ufologen is dit concept natuurlijk al heel lang bekend onder de naam USO (Unidentified Submerged Object).
Dit soort objecten kom je veel vaker tegen dan je zou denken en dit komt onder andere voor in het verhaal van de bekende klokkenluider Bill Cooper in de tijd dat hij nog bij de marine diende. Hij omschreef wat hij toen zag zal als volgt:
Hij was een erg avontuurlijke en een beetje gekke, nog jonge man en dacht dat het wel spannend zou zijn om werkzaam te zijn op een onderzeeër, waarvoor hij zich dan ook vrijwillig aanmeldde. Tijdens één van de oefeningen waren ze op weg van Portland/Seattle naar Pearl Harbor en had hij dienst op de uitkijk, waar hij zijn levensveranderende ontdekking deed met wat hij zag. Plotseling zag hij een schotel-achtig object vanuit de zee omhoog komen (ter grote van een vliegdekschip), die om zijn as draaide en meteen tussen de wolken verdween. Omdat wat hij zag gebeuren zich op ongeveer 2 zeemijl afstand van hem afspeelde, leek het langzaam te gaan, maar in feite ging het zeer snel omdat het uit het water kwam, om z`n as draaide en direct uit zicht was.
Hij melde het voorval dat hij iets gezien had bij zijn meerdere, waarop deze ook op dek kwam kijken. En warempel een paar minuten later komt datzelfde DING terug uit de lucht met volle snelheid, en verdween weer in zee zonder ook maar een spetter/plons te veroorzaken. Het was net of de zee zich opende waardoor het object zonder iets te raken erin kon vliegen. U moet zich voorstellen dat wat hij gezien had, zo groot was als een vliegdekschip en zoiets kan NOOIT in zee terechtkomen zonder ook maar een plons.... althans niet in de wereld zoals wij die kennen. Het ritueel herhaalde zich meerdere keren waarvan beide mannen ooggetuige waren.
Dat de Amerikaanse marine al heel lang kennis had van ufo's die ook onderwater kunnen opereren, blijkt ook uit de volgende uitgelekte documenten waarover wij eerder schreven.
Via een televisiestation in Las Vegas zijn er nu originele marine documenten uitgelekt, waaruit inderdaad blijkt dat het verhaal waar is en waar nog veel meer interessante informatie in staat dan tot nu bekend was.
Het KLAS televisiekanaal zegt, dat hoewel er geen logo’s en dergelijke te zien zijn op het intern marineverslag, dit wel degelijk echt is en dat dit is bevestigd door vier verschillende mensen die dat zouden kunnen weten.
Interessant is dat ze het object geen UFO noemen, maar AVV, wat staat voor anomalous aerial vehicle. Een vliegend object dat er eigenlijk niet hoort te zijn.
Hierna volgt de originele samenvatting van het verslag en daarin is te lezen dat het voorval zich uitstrekt over een periode van ongeveer zes dagen.
Het volgend plaatje laat de voornaamste conclusies zien die in het rapport worden genoemd.
Zoals dat het object dat is waargenomen absoluut niet thuishoort in de Amerikaanse marine of luchtmacht.
Dat het object zichzelf als het ware onzichtbaar kan maken (cloaking) voor de huidige radarsystemen.
Dat het over verbazingkwekkende aerodynamische eigenschappen beschikt, maar dat er helemaal niets te zien is zoals vleugels, aandrijving of uitsteeksels.
En dan nog iets bijzonders want het object beweegt zich klaarblijkelijk onder water net zo gemakkelijk als in de lucht.
Het totale rapport beslaat zo’n 13 pagina’s en is hier te lezen. Dit rapport werd vijf jaar na de gebeurtenis samengesteld en volgens KLAS TV is het daarna aan de kant gelegd omdat binnen het Pentagon er eigenlijk niemand in was geïnteresseerd en het object duidelijk geen gevaar opleverde.
Wat uiteraard ook een mogelijkheid is, is dat we hier niet te maken hebben met een UFO van buitenaardse makelij, maar met een exemplaar van de geheime ruimtevloot zoals die enkele jaren voor het incident van de marine werd gebruikt voor de aanslag op de Twin Towers tijdens 9/11.
Normaal marinepersoneel heeft uiteraard ook geen weet van het bestaan van een geheime ruimtevloot en dus zijn zij net zo verbaasd als de rest van de bevolking, schrijven zij braaf hun rapporten die vervolgens ergens in een bureaula verdwijnen.
Aan de andere kant, misschien zijn het wel degelijk buitenaardsen en dat is toch iets waar de meeste mensen vanuit gaan als er ondubbelzinnig is bewezen dat UFO's echt bestaan.
Nadat we dit artikel hadden geschreven, ontvingen we van Paul Harmans een video van Tyler van Secure Team over dit onderwerp die hij in het Nederlands heeft ondertiteld.
Onze dank en veel lezers zullen daar blij mee zijn en dus bij deze:
They’re ba-ack! Just in time for Halloween, those strange Peruvian mummies with three-fingered hands, three-toed feet, elongated skulls and no verifiable explanation for who or what they are have jumped back into the news pool with both three-toed feet. A university in Peru announced it has the mummies in its possession and plans to show-and-tell everything there is to know about the mysterious humanoid forms. This comes hot on the heels of a separate but related announcement of the discovery of a giant three-finger geoglyph in the Atacama Desert in Chile which strongly resemble the mummies – right down to the tips of their three-fingered hands. Will these strange beings finally be identified and explained?
“In spite of opposition from some archaeologists and media reporters, who even went to this university to prevent such a decision, this university has opted for the scientifically correct path. The Vice-Rector Mr. Martin Alarcón wants to investigate. On November 6th, 2019 there will be a press conference to officially announce this decision by the university.”
The university is the Universidad Nacional San Luis Gonzaga in Peru’s Department of Ica, an area centrally located to the Nazca Lines, the Palpa or Paracas glyphs, the Paracas elongated skulls and the Chincha people (possible pre-Columbian creators of the glyphs). ExoNews broke the news of the acquisition of the mummies prior to the university’s planned press conference on November 6th. Journalists Jaime Maussan and Jois Mantilla say Gaia, the organization which has been in control of the mummies and investigations into them, will not be involved with the university’s research. Yosef Ben Levi, a theologian and researcher into the “tridactyl” mummies, spent over 70 minutes with Mantilla explaining the new investigation. (Watch the video here – unfortunately not in English.)
“The International Foundation for Culture and Life Sciences is pleased to share this material that corresponds to a tridactyl humanoid geoglyph very similar to those known publicly as “The Mummies of Nasca” in Peru, in this case just over 800 kms in the commune of Huara, Tarapacá region of Chile.”
Meanwhile, the International Foundation for Culture and Life Sciences (FICCV), a new Chilean organization dedicated to finding, preserving and teaching about the artifacts of ancient Chilean cultures, announced the discovery of a three-fingered (tridactyl) humanoid glyph in the Tarapacá region of northern Chile on the Pan-American Highway – which coincidentally runs through the Nazca desert, the location of the Nazca lines and glyphs. This particular humanoid glyph (see it here) – the only one known to exist – measures 25 meters (82 feet) and was found in the Atacama Desert, best known as the location of the so-called Atacama Giant, the largest prehistoric anthropomorphic figure in the world at 119 meters (390 ft). FYI – the Atacama Giant has no fingers or toes.

“One of the feet shows a 90-degree angle similar to the feet in the larger three-finger “mummy” called “María.” If María and the 60 cm entities are genuine could the former be a hybrid between a human and the smaller 60 cm beings that have more significant reptilian characteristics?”
That bent foot, not the three fingers on the Chilean humanoid glyph, may be the missing link between it and the Nazca three-fingered mummies, according to José de la Cruz Ríos López, a biologist who has studied both. Yosef Ben Levi reveals on his Facebook page how he and other researchers feel about the University taking over the study of the tridactyl mummies.
“On behalf of the whole team of the Inkarri – Cusco Institute, we wish good luck to all the leaders and scientits of the San Luis Gonzaga National University of Ica. We would like to thank them warmly for having the courage to make the decision to scientifically and officially study these controversial mummies. Like millions of people around the world, we count on you to establish, in a definitive way, the truth about this incredible affair.”
Let’s hope he, his team and the rest of us aren’t disappointed one more time. We’ll be keeping you updated.
Of all people, the ones who probably should have seen UFOs if they’re out there are astronauts. Well, it just so happens that, a few astronauts have indeed come forward over the years with accounts of unexplained experiences in space. The latest to do so is former NASA astronaut Jerry Linenger, who lived aboard the now-defunct Russian Space Station Mir for five months in 1997. Linenger’s stay aboard Mir was marked by an accidental fire and near-catastrophic systems breakdown that according to his NASA bio “altered the whole nature of his mission and served to change the relationship between the U.S. and the Russian space programs.” Also, he saw UFOs. That’s a really weird five months.
Linenger, a retired captain of the U.S. Navy Medical Corps, spoke about his experiences with UFOs and other anomalies witnessed from Space Station Mir during an interview last year. He says he witnessed bizarre, unexplained things, many times during his stay in space. From the interview:
”Well I’m going to stick my neck out, but how many people think I saw a UFO when I was up there? Well I did, I saw things in the true sense of the word, unidentified flying objects – don’t take me out of context there – no aliens. But I saw stuff that made me call my crewmates over and say ‘what the heck is that?’”
Space Station Mir
It’s not surprising he gave the caveat of not seeing aliens. It’s highly doubtful a Navy physician and NASA astronaut would jump to that conclusion unless he saw an alien’s big spooky eyes staring right at him. He says that the nature of witnessing these things in space make it hard to tell what exactly you’re looking at, but he does describe some pretty strange—and weirdly familiar—sightings:
“We’d look and sometimes it was metallic, it was like a spoon if you were off in the distance and in the province of space good luck figuring out if it’s a really small object close-by, something floated out of the airlock.
Is it something 100,000 miles away that’s the size of a big spacecraft? It’s very hard to distinguish that, usually it was something you could kind of explain, maybe an external tank or something like that. But you would see things and you go ‘wow, that’s cool – I don’t know what that was exactly, but it’s not a satellite’.”
That could definitely look like a spoon in the right context.
Linenger also says that UFOs and anomalous events are just as noteworthy in space as it is on Earth:
“You definitely, just like when you see something weird [on Earth], call everyone over like ‘I don’t care what you’re doing, get over here and take a look at this.”
It’s all very interesting. Of course, as Jerry Linenger says, distance in space is weird and it’s hard to tell what it is you’re looking at. Still, these are trained astronauts we’re talking about. That they would be surprised and excited by unexplained things up in space suggests that there might just be some surprising, exciting, and unexplained things up there after all.
Origin and Chemical Make-Up of Titan's Dunes Unraveled
Origin and Chemical Make-Up of Titan's Dunes Unraveled
A team led by a University of Hawaii at Manoa chemistry professor and researcher has been able to provide answers to key questions about the surface of Saturn’s moon Titan.
Physical chemist Ralf I. Kaiser and fellow researchers examined remote sensing data regarding NASA’s Cassini-Huygens mission to Titan–the only solar system body besides Earth with a solid surface, lakes and a thick atmosphere with a pressure of about 1.5 atmosphere at surface level. Images and data from Cassini-Huygens exposed the existence of vast longitudinal dunes on Titan’s surface across the equatorial deserts reaching heights of up to 100 meters, close to the size of the Egyptian pyramids of Giza. Whereas Earth’s dunes are made of silicates or the largest class of minerals, imaging studies revealed that Titan’s dunes contain dark organics of until now undetermined origin and chemical composition.

The UH Manoa team, which also consisted of Matthew Abplanalp, former chemistry graduate student at UH’s W.M. Keck Research Laboratory in Astrochemistry, exposed acetylene ice–a chemical that is used on Earth in welding torches and exists at Titan’s equatorial regions–at low temperatures to proxies of high-energy galactic cosmic rays. The researchers exposed a rapid cosmic-ray-driven chemistry which converts simple molecules like acetylene to more complex organic molecules like benzene and naphthalene – a compound which is found in mothballs – on Titan’s surface. These processes also happen in the interstellar medium – the space between stars – on hydrocarbon rich layers of interstellar nanoparticles.
“Titan’s dunes represent the dominating surface sink of carbon in Titan’s organic chemistry,” said Abplanalp, current researcher at the Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division at China Lake. “Therefore, unraveling the origin and chemical pathways to form this organic dune material is vital not only to understand Titan’s chemical evolution, but also to grasp how alike the chemistries on Titan and on Earth might have been like before life emerged on Earth 3.5 million years ago.”
“These processes eventually furnish the molecular building blocks not only for Titan’s organic dunes, but also for organics on airless bodies in general such as on Kuiper Belt Objects like dwarf planet Makemake,” outlined Kaiser.

“The low temperature synthesis of PAHs from acetylene ices represents a fundamental shift from currently accepted perceptions that PAH formation takes place solely in the gas phase at elevated temperatures of a few 1,000 K such as in combustion processes.”
These findings will have unprecedented implications for the next space mission to Titan. NASA aims to land a flying robot, Dragonfly, on the surface of Titan, the top target in the search for alien life and its molecular precursors. The car-sized quadcopter, equipped with instruments capable of identifying large organic molecules, is slated to launch on a rocket in 2026, arrive at its destination in 2034 and then fly to multiple locations hundreds of miles apart. Dragonfly will land near Titan’s equator close to the organic dunes thus providing an in situ glimpse of potentially biorelevant organics at a frozen stage–boldly going where no one has gone before.
“Overall, this study advances our understanding of the complex organics and fundamental chemical processing of simple molecules in deep space and provides a scientifically sound and proven mechanism of formation of aromatic structures in extreme environments in low temperature ices,” Kaiser concluded. “Since Titan is nitrogen-rich, the incorporation of nitrogen in these PAHs may also lead to carbon-nitrogen moieties (parts of a molecule) prevailing in contemporary biochemistry such as in DNA and RNA-based nitrogen-bases.”
