Mysterious Colorado Swarms of Giant Drones Have Officials Baffled
Mysterious Colorado Swarms of Giant Drones Have Officials Baffled
There are many people in Colorado wondering what is flying over there head and Officials in the area are freaked out because they don’t know who it is and nobody is fessing up. There is a health Drone business in Denver with many companies doing work but I think we might have a solution to the mystery of the Giants Drones. Have you heard of Black Swift Technologies?
I found what I believe to be a UFO passing below the shuttle Atlantis while in earths orbit. The photo labels the object as a satellite, but I have found other UFOs in this archive including the Black Knight Satellites which went viral in 2011 and are known by every UFO researcher in the world. I am fairly certain that this too is a UFO that has been mistakenly labeled as a satellite. Now we all heard about the Shuttle Atlantis being followed by several UFOs...I mean they had it on World CNN for 48 hours and said the shuttle landing was delayed till the UFOs were gone and it was clear for landing safely. Well, it looks like one of those UFOs got caught close up in these photos. Scott C. Waring
NASA shock: Astronaut Michael Collins drops a major alien hint in tweet about 'life forms'
NASA shock: Astronaut Michael Collins drops a major alien hint in tweet about 'life forms'
NASA veteran Michael Collins teased the possibility of alien life thriving beyond Earth when he tweeted about encountering alien “life forms” on other planets.
The NASA astronaut was briefly the loneliest man in the universe when he solitarily orbited the Moon during Apollo 11 in 1969. But the US astronaut may have not been so lonely after all, if his suspicions about alien life in deep space come true. In a Twitter exchange with his more than 62,500 followers, Mr Collins spoke about the alien mysteries humans might one day encounter.
“I just hope we never have to make the decisions to leave this Earth. #AskMichaelCollins”
In response to the astronaut’s tweet, Mark Johnstone said: “Finding other signs of life will or should be easier as we don’t have to leave Earth.
“The question of whether we can ever develop the ability to travel the distance to other solar systems is harder to answer.”
Marco Thompson said: “Good question. Through exploration and innovation we will seek habitation that is independent of Earth; mining and other off-world activities are very lucrative.
“However finding life in other places of our universe would be a monumental discovery and would change society.”
Mr Collins replied to the question with a simple “yes”, prompting excited responses from his Twitter followers.
But Mr Collins is no stranger to discussing the possibility of life developing beyond our solar system.
In 1999, the astronaut famously told the New York Daily News: “It seems to me the height of arrogance to say that our little stupid Sun off in one obscure corner of an odd galaxy called the Milky Way should be the only one in the whole universe capable of developing what we sometimes refer to as intelligent life.”
Mr Collins was one of the three astronauts who flew to the Moon on the monumental Apollo 11 mission in July 1969.
On July 20 that year, his colleagues Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin attempted the first manned lunar landing.
As the Command Module Pilot for the mission, the astronaut remained in lunar orbit where he awaited the safe return of his fellow astronauts.
Do you remember the Apollo 11 Moon landing on July 20, 1969?
The Command Module Pilots served a critical role in the Apollo programme, acting as a lifeboat and ticket back home for the two astronauts who walked on the Moon.
Before Apollo 11, Mr Collins flew in NASA’s Gemini programme, during Gemini 10.
Together with astronaut John Young, he successfully performed an orbital rendezvous with another spacecraft in Earth orbit.
Mr Collins would later go on to say Gemini 10 taught him to be comfortable “many miles above Earth”, how to ration his energy and how to appreciate his crewmates.
Quick facts about astronaut Michael Collins:
Michael Collins was selected for NASA’s astronaut corps 1963 and served on Gemini 10 and Apollo 11.
The Apollo astronaut served as the director of the Smithsonian Institution’s National Air & Space Museum from 1971 to 1978.
The astronaut was born in Rome, Italy, on October 31, 1930.
Mr Collins was the only Apollo 11 astronaut who did not land on the Moon.
The astronaut retired from the US Air Force with the rank of major general and left NASA in 1970.
Veteran Astronaut Drops a Hint on Life Forms Beyond Earth in Twitter
Veteran Astronaut Drops a Hint on Life Forms Beyond Earth in Twitter
The presence of alien life outside planet Earth made a buzz on Twitter recently as NASA veteran astronaut Michael Collins took to the social networking service to shed light on the subject.
Collins orbited the Moon during Apollo 11 in 1969 alone, but he may haven’t been so lonely after all if his suspicions about extraterrestrial life in deep space come true. Collins spoke about the ET mysteries humans might one day encounter with his more than 62,500 followers on Twitter.
A fan asked the NASA astronaut if he considers searching alien life beyond Earth or seeking a habitable planet to settle as more important.
In his opinion, Collins said both picks are intertwined with one another. He explained that the two options are all Outward Bound that may reveal life and place. He added that a place to live might be the ultimate and final goal but maybe dependent on the life forms found there.
Collins has been selecting questions to answer that were submitted by his fans on Twitter under the hashtag #Ask MichaelCollins.
Collins is no stranger to talking about the possibility of life developing beyond our solar system. In 1999, the veteran astronaut said that it could be impossible that our Sun is the only one in the entire universe capable of developing intelligent life.
Collins was one of the three astronauts on the Apollo 11 mission in July 1969. On the 20th in the same month and year, his colleagues Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong attempted the first human-crewed lunar landing. He remained in the lunar orbit as the command module pilot for the mission, where he awaited the safe return of his fellows.
2019 was een druk jaar voor het Belgisch UFO-meldpunt. Er werden maar liefst 266 waarnemingen gedaan en dat was 46 procent meer dan in 2018, toen er 182 meldingen binnenliepen. Vooral in Oost-Vlaanderen zagen we ze vliegen. Opmerkelijk: Elon Musk zat er voor iets tussen.
De stijging is hoofdzakelijk terug te voeren tot enkele kleine waarnemingsgolven. “Op 25 mei zorgde een groep van 60 satellieten die door het ruimtebedrijf SpaceX (van Elon Musk, red.) in een baan rond de aarde werd gebracht voor 33 meldingen”, klinkt het bij het UFO-Meldpunt. “En ook een tweede lancering in november van 2019 veroorzaakte verwarring.”
Sliert van sterren
De ‘slierten van sterren’ zullen ook in de nabije toekomst nog voor extra ufomeldingen zorgen, zo verwacht het meldpunt. “SpaceX is immers van plan om maar liefst 12.000 (!!) van deze Starlink satellieten rond de aarde te laten vliegen”, klinkt het in het jaarverslag.
Een andere waarnemingspiek was er op 14 september, toen een Ierse weerballon boven Gent explodeerde. “Dat incident was goed voor 37 meldingen in één avond tijd”, aldus het meldpunt. “Dat is een absoluut record voor één dag.” (lees hieronder verder)
Verder bleken veel meldingen vorig jaar uiteindelijk ballonnen (57 meldingen), satellieten, het internationaal ruimtestation ISS (46) of meteoren (29) te zijn. Voor 55 meldingen was er voldoende informatie om tot een conclusie te komen en één melding is nog in onderzoek. Twee meldingen werden niet verklaard: het ging om “een fel oranje draaiend licht dat geprojecteerd leek op de rijbaan” en “een donkere driehoek die over windmolens vloog”.
Chirurg
Een van de interessantste, met fotomateriaal gedocumenteerde waarnemingen die het meldpunt afgelopen jaar ontving, dateert van 10 januari 2019 in Deinze. Als een chirurg rond 7.15 uur samen met zijn vrouw en vier kinderen zijn woning verlaat, ziet het gezin hoog in de lucht een onbeweeglijke lichtgele rechthoek met in het midden een donker kruis en op het snijpunt van de armen een gele bol. De rechthoek is “ongeveer 25% van de volle maan” groot. Na 10 minuten wordt de waarneming gestaakt omdat de kinderen naar school moeten.
Onderzoek van het UFO-meldpunt kon de waarneming niet verklaren. Vermoedelijk ging het om de reflectie van spots (van de nabijgelegen school of een bouwwerf in de buurt) in ijskristallen. (lees hieronder verder)
UFO-meldpunt
Een foto van de waarneming (rechts ingezoomd).
Het was zes jaar geleden dat er nog eens zo veel meldingen binnenliepen bij het UFO-meldpunt. In 2013 klokte de organisatie af op 267 waarnemingen en ook de twee jaren daarvoor waren er erg bewogen.
Het Franstalige COBEPS (Comité Belge pour l’Etude des Phénomènes Spatiaux) ontving in 2019 ‘maar’ 85 ufomeldingen.

Unsolved Archaeological Mysteries That Will Creep You Out!
Unsolved Archaeological Mysteries That Will Creep You Out!
Strange archaeological discoveries that are still unsolved mysteries to this day. Unexplained artifacts, creepy mummies, ancient mysteries, strange and incredible fossils with unbelievable stories. History can be downright weird and scary!
Secret Space Mysterious Object With Huge Trail of Fire Spotted In The Florida Sky On New Years Day
Secret Space Mysterious Object With Huge Trail of Fire Spotted In The Florida Sky On New Years Day
FORT PIERCE, Fla. — Early risers on New Year’s Day walking along the beach to see the sunrise on the Treasure Coast also saw what appeared to be a mysterious rocket launch.
With no scheduled launches at Cape Canaveral, it is not immediately known what occurred.
Photo taken by John Simard of Fort Pierce seems to show the object going up with a long trail of fire behind it.
Several viewers from Vero Beach to Fort Pierce said they saw the object, which was located east of the shore and out in the Atlantic Ocean.
This story was originally published by Matt Sczesny on WPTV in Palm Beach, Florida.
The six astronauts of Expedition 60 on the International Space Station celebrated 2020 earlier than you might think. Pictured here: (foreground from left) NASA astronauts Jessica Meir, ESA astronaut Luca Parmitano (center) and NASA astronaut Christina Koch (right). Background from left: Russian cosmonauts Alexander Skvortsov, Oleg Skripochka and NASA astronaut Andrew Morgan.
The people of Earth weren't the only ones ringing in the year 2020 at midnight. Six explorers in orbit celebrated the new year's arrival - and indeed, a new decade - aboard theInternational Space Station.
"Happy New Year from low Earth orbit!" NASA astronaut Andrew Morgan wrote on Twitter as Earth began the year 2020.
Morgan celebrated 2020's arrival with crewmates Christina Koch and Jessica Meir (both of NASA), European Space Agency astronaut Luca Parmitano, and Russian cosmonauts Oleg Skripochka and Alexander Skvortsov. Parmitano commands the crew, known as Expedition 60.
Celebrating a new year in space is a bit different than ringing in Jan. 1 on Earth. For starters, astronauts orbit the Earth 16 times a day, meaning they see 16 sunrises and sunsets as the circle the planet every hour and a half. Then there's their time zone, which meant the station crew saw 2020's arrival before flight controllers at NASA's Mission Control center in Houston.
"The space station operates on Greenwich Mean Time, or GMT, meaning it will only be 7 pm ET when the orbiting astronauts' clock strikes midnight to ring in the new year," NASA officials said in a Twitter statement.
3, 2, 1... #HappyNewYear! We're usually counting down to liftoff, but today, we're counting down to 2020. The space station operates in Greenwich Mean Time, or GMT, meaning it will only be 7 pm ET when the orbiting astronauts' clock strikes midnight to ring in the new year!
The year 2020 is a major milestone for the International Space Station. In November, the station will celebrate 20 years of continuous operation with a human crew. (The first station crew Expedition 1 arrived in 2000.)
This incredible photo by @Astro_Christina as my #Soyuz headed to @Space_Station in September sums up 2019 – my most extraordinary year yet. #TheJourney was certainly not only my own, I remain in debt to countless individuals on the ground. #HappyNewYear to all on (& off) #Earth!
Meir celebrated the new year on Twitter with a photo of her own launch as seen by Koch in space in September. The image, Meir said, summed up 2019 as her "most extraordinary year yet."
"The journey was certainly not only my own, I remain in dept to countless individuals on the ground," Meir said. "Happy New Year to all on (& off) Earth!"
Archaeological Discoveries Are Occurring Faster Than Ever

Archaeological Discoveries Are Occurring Faster Than Ever
In 1924, a 3-year-old child’s skull found in South Africa forever changed how people think about human origins.
The Taung Child, our first encounter with an ancient group of proto-humans or hominins called australopithecines, was a turning point in the study of human evolution. This discovery shifted the focus of human origins research from Europe and Asia onto Africa, setting the stage for the last century of research on the continent and into its “ Cradles of Humankind.”
Few people back then would’ve been able to predict what scientists know about evolution today, and now the pace of discovery is faster than ever. Even since the turn of the 21st century, human origins textbooks have been rewritten over and over again. Just 20 years ago, no one could have imagined what scientists know two decades later about humanity’s deep past, let alone how much knowledge could be extracted from a thimble of dirt, a scrape of dental plaque or satellites in space.
Human fossils are outgrowing the family tree earliest hominin
In Africa, there are now several fossil candidates for the earliest hominin dated to between 5 and 7 million years ago, when we know humans likely split off from other Great Apes based on differences in our DNA.
Although discovered in the 1990s, publication of the 4.4 million year old skeleton nicknamed “Ardi” in 2009 changed scientists’ views on how hominins began walking.
Anthropologists are realizing that our Homo sapiens ancestors had much more contact with other human species than previously thought. Today, human evolution looks less like Darwin’s tree and more like a muddy, braided stream.
The rise of biomolecular archaeology means new opportunities for interdisciplinary collaboration among field- and lab-based scientists.
Many recent discoveries have been made possible by the new science of ancient DNA .
Since scientists fully sequenced the first ancient human genome in 2010, data from thousands of individuals have shed new insights on our species’ origins and early history.
One shocking discovery is that although our lineages split up to 800,000 years ago, modern humans and Neanderthals mated a number of times during the last Ice Age. This is why many people today possess some Neanderthal DNA .

Ancient DNA is how researchers first identified the mysterious Denisovans, who interbred with us and Neanderthals. And while most studies are still conducted on bones and teeth, it is now possible to extract ancient DNA from other sources like cave dirt and 6,000-year-old chewing gum .
Genetic methods are also reconstructing individual and family relationships, and connecting ancient individuals to living peoples to end decades long debates.
The applications go far beyond humans. Paleogenomics is yielding surprising discoveries about plants and animals from ancient seeds and skeletons hidden in the backrooms of museums.
Natural history museums hold a wealth of information, some of which can only be tapped through new biomolecular methods. Scientists analyze modern and fossil animal skeletons to ask questions about the past using ancient proteins.

Biomolecules are making the invisible visible
DNA is not the only molecule revolutionizing studies of the past.
Dental calculus – the hardened plaque that your dentist scrapes off your teeth – is particularly informative, revealing everything from who was drinking milk 6,000 years ago to the surprising diversity of plants, some likely medicinal, in Neanderthal diets. Calculus can help scientists understand ancient diseases and how the human gut microbiome has changed over time. Researchers even find cultural clues – bright blue lapis lazuli trapped in a medieval nun’s calculus led historians to reconsider who penned illuminated manuscripts.
Scientists unexpectedly found lazurite pigment in calcified plaque clinging to a 11th- to 12th-century woman’s tooth, challenging the assumption that male monks were the primary makers of medieval manuscripts.
Lipid residues trapped in pottery have revealed the origins of milk consumption in the Sahara and showed that oddly shaped pots found throughout Bronze and Iron Age Europe were ancient baby bottles .
Researchers use collagen-based “barcodes” of different animal species to answer questions ranging from when Asian rats arrived as castaways on Africa-bound ships to what animals were used to produce medieval parchment or even to detect microbes left by a monk’s kiss on a page.
Big data is revealing big patterns
While biomolecules help researchers zoom into microscopic detail, other approaches let them zoom out. Archaeologists have used aerial photography since the 1930s, but widely available satellite imagery now enables researchers to discover new sites and monitor existing ones at risk. Drones flying over sites help investigate how and why they were made and combat looting.
Archaeologists increasingly use technology to understand how sites fit into their environment and to document sites at risk. Here, a drone captured a tell (a mound indicating build-up of ancient settlements) in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq.
Originally developed for space applications, scientists now use LIDAR – a remote sensing technique that uses lasers to measure distance – to map 3D surfaces and visualize landscapes here on Earth. As a result, ancient cities are emerging from dense vegetation in places like Mexico, Cambodia and South Africa .
Technologies that can peer underground from the surface, such as Ground Penetrating Radar, are also revolutionizing the field – for example, revealing previously unknown structures at Stonehenge. More and more, archaeologists are able to do their work without even digging a hole.
Geophysical survey methods enable archaeologists to detect buried features without digging large holes, maximizing knowledge while minimizing destruction.
Mary Prendergast and Thomas Fitton, CC BY-ND / The Conversation
Teams of archaeologists are combining big datasets in new ways to understand large-scale processes. In 2019, over 250 archaeologists pooled their findings to show that humans have altered the planet for thousands of years, for example, with a 2,000-year-old irrigation system in China. This echoes other studies that challenge the idea that the Anthropocene, the current period defined by human influences on the planet, only began in the 20th century.
New connections are raising new possibilities
These advances bring researchers together in exciting new ways. Over 140 new Nazca Lines , ancient images carved into a Peruvian desert, were discovered using artificial intelligence to sift through drone and satellite imagery. With the wealth of high-resolution satellite imagery online, teams are also turning to crowdsourcing to find new archaeological sites.
Although new partnerships among archaeologists and scientific specialists are not always tension-free, there is growing consensus that studying the past means reaching across fields.
The Open Science movement aims to make this work accessible to all. Scientists including archaeologists are sharing data more freely within and beyond the academy. Public archaeology programs, community digs and digital museum collections are becoming common. You can even print your own copy of famous fossils from freely available 3D scans, or an archaeological coloring book in more than 30 languages.
Archaeologists are increasingly reaching out to communities to share their findings, for example at this school presentation in Tanzania.
Efforts to make archaeology and museums more equitable and engage indigenous research partners are gaining momentum as archaeologists consider whose past is being revealed. Telling the human story requires a community of voices to do things right.
Studying the past to change our present
As new methods enable profound insight into humanity’s shared history, a challenge is to ensure that these insights are relevant and beneficial in the present and future.
In a year marked by youth-led climate strikes and heightened awareness of a planet in crisis, it may seem counterproductive to look back in time.
Yet in so doing, archaeologists are providing empirical support for climate change and revealing how ancient peoples coped with challenging environments.
As one example, studies show that while industrial meat production has serious environmental costs, transhumance – a traditional practice of seasonally moving livestock, now recognized by UNESCO as intangible cultural heritage – is not only light on the land today, but helped promote biodiversity and healthy landscapes in the past.
Archaeologists today are contributing their methods, data and perspectives toward a vision for a less damaged, more just planet. While it’s difficult to predict exactly what the next century holds in terms of archaeological discoveries, a new focus on “ usable pasts ” points in a positive direction.

Something strange has been happening in Eastern Colorado at night.
Since the week of Christmas, giant drones measuring up to 6 feet across have been spotted in the sky at night, sometimes in swarms as large as 30. The Denver Post first reported these mysterious drone sightings in northeastern Colorado on December 23. Since then, sightings have spanned six counties across Colorado and Nebraska.
Phillips County Sheriff Thomas Elliott had no answer for where the drones came from or whom they belonged to but did have a rough grasp on their flying habits. "They've been doing a grid search, a grid pattern," he told The Denver Post. "They fly one square and then they fly another square."
The drones, estimated to have 6-foot wingspans, have been flying over Phillips and Yuma counties every night for about the past week, Elliott said Monday. Each night, at least 17 drones appear at about 7 o'clock and disappear at about 10 o'clock, staying 200 to 300 feet in the air.
The Federal Aviation Administration told The Post it had no idea where the drones came from. Representatives for the Air Force, the Drug Enforcement Administration, and the US Army Forces Command all said the drones did not belong to their organizations.
As the airspace where the drones are flying is relatively ungoverned, there are no regulations requiring the drone operators to identify themselves. Elliott, however, said the drones did not appear to be malicious.
The Post spoke with the commercial photographer and drone pilot Vic Moss, who said the drones appeared to be searching or mapping out the area. Moss said drones often flew at night for crop-examination purposes. The drones might also belong to a local Colorado drone company, which could be testing new technologies.
In the meantime, Moss urges residents not to shoot down the drones, as they are highly flammable.
"It becomes a self-generating fire that burns until it burns itself out," he told The Post. "If you shoot a drone down over your house and it lands on your house, you might not have a house in 45 minutes."
NOW WATCH: Watch the Navy's LOCUST launcher fire a swarm of drones
It is unclear who created the giant geoglyph or why, but the large earthen figure has drawn attention to a remote part of South Australia for two decades.
(CNN)- NASA confirms one of the greatest modern art mysteries is still going strong in Australia.
A pilot discovered the mysterious 2.6-mile-long geoglyph of an aboriginal hunter in 1998, etched into the earth, and to this day no one knows how it got there.
The Marree Man gained new life in 2016 when a group from the figure's namesake town of Marree plowed the lines to keep the man from fading due to erosion. Now, NASA is sharing an image taken in June showing the success of their efforts.
So far, the restoration team's belief that their preservation will last longer than the original holds up. They created wind grooves, designed to trap water and encourage the growth of vegetation, according to NASA. They hope that eventually the man will turn green.
Many have tried to discover the origin of the Marree Man.
CNN previously reported that Dick Smith, founder of Dick Smith Electronics and Dick Smith Foods, decided to tackle the mystery in 2016, and for two years his team pored over all the evidence to see what they could find.
He believed it was professionally done, so in 2018 he offered a reward of $5,000 Australian dollars ($3,712) for anyone with information regarding its existence.
No one has come forward, but several believe it was made by an artist living in Alice Springs, though other clues suggest the creator may have been an American.
Where do the 2020 Democratic presidential candidates stand on UFOs? In front of the nearest ET camera, of course! Bada-bing! Sorry, couldn’t help myself. But seriously, what do the people running for president on the Democratic side think about UFOs, the possible existence of extraterrestrials and the disclosure of secret files on those and other related subjects? Minnesota Senator Amy Klobuchar was recently interviewed by Draymond Steer, a reporter for New Hampshire’s The Conway Daily Sun and someone known for asking politicians those tough UFO questions. Steer asked Klobuchar about the USS Nimitz UFO incident – one of the witnesses was New Hampshire’s own David Fravor. Here’s what she had to say:
“I’ve read some articles about it. And, you know, I think we don’t know enough. I don’t know. I mean, I don’t know what happened, not just with that sighting, but with others. And, I think one of the things a President could do is to look into what’s there; in terms of what does the science say; what does the military say? Here’s the interesting part of that answer, is that some of the stuff is really old, these sightings. So, why can’t you see if you can let some of that out for the public? So, earnest journalists like you, who are trying to get to the bottom of the truth would be able to see it?”
Senator Amy Klobuchar
She explained that a president should be able to figure out what information still needs to be hidden and what can be released, implying that she would be that kind of president. What about the other Democratic candidates? Earlier this year, The Conway Daily Sun asked Andrew Yang and he said:
“I’m very curious about UFOs. I have a feeling they probably do exist.”
No word on whether extraterrestrials from other parts of the universe would qualify for Yang’s $1000-per-month ‘universal’ income. When asked about Bernie Sanders, Steer said, “Bernie had no interest in the UFO question.” However, in a later interview with Joe Rogan, Sanders himself said he’d reveal UFO information if he found it and “Alright, we’ll announce it on the show. How’s that?” Did Bernie flip or is he just flippant?
Many will remember the 2016 campaign when both Hillary Clinton and her campaign manager and former chief-of-staff to her husband, John Podesta, promised to open the X-files if elected. That didn’t happen, and the current president shows no sign of opening them. When asked about the briefing he received on the USS Nimitz UFO incident, President Trump commented:
“I did have one very brief meeting on it. But people are saying they’re seeing UFOs. Do I believe it? Not particularly.”
The other candidates don’t seem to have been asked any UFO questions or, if they have, are avoiding giving an answer. They may remember 2008 when then candidate Dennis Kucinich admitted during a debate that he had once seen a UFO Over the house of actress Shirley MacLaine and that he “felt a connection in his heart and heard directions in his mind.”
“It was an unidentified flying object, OK? It’s, like, it’s unidentified. I saw something. I’m also going to move my campaign office to Roswell, New Mexico, and other one in Exeter, New Hampshire, OK? And also, you have to keep in mind that more – that Jimmy Carter saw a UFO and also that more people in this country have seen UFOs than I think approve of George Bush’s presidency.”
Dennis Kucinich
Kucinich dropped out of the race shortly after and some say his poll numbers plunged because of the comments.
Is this an endorsement of Senator Amy Klobuchar or Andrew Yang because of their UFO beliefs? No. Will any other Democratic candidate give us full disclosure if elected? Partial disclosure? Let’s just say it would be wise to base your voting decision on some other criteria.
If you don’t want your car to get hit by a bus, you move it out of its way. If you don’t want your house to get hit by a tsunami, you move it out of its way. If you don’t want your solar system to get hit by a supernova … believe it or not, you move it out of its way. How? According to a recent paper by Matthew E. Caplan of the Department of Physics at Illinois State University, published by Acta Astronautica, entitled “Stellar engines: Design considerations for maximizing acceleration,” with a giant stellar engine.
“Stellar engines, megastructures used to control the motion of a star system, may be constructible by technologically advanced civilizations and used to avoid dangerous astrophysical events or transport a star system into proximity with another for colonization.”
That’s probably the easiest-to-understand sentence in the entire scientific report. Fortunately, a German design studio called Kurzgesagt – German for “In a nutshell“ – has released an animated YouTube video explaining Caplan’s stellar engine in a way the rest of the world can understand. (Watch the video here.)
The real question is, after watching the video and attempting to read the paper, can the rest of the world – or anyone in the world or universe – build one?
“Stellar engines are a class of hypothetical megastructures which use a star’s radiation to create usable energy. Some variants use this energy to produce thrust, and thus accelerate a star, and anything orbiting it, in a given direction. The creation of such a system would make its builders a Type-II civilization on the Kardashev scale.”
Wikipedia points out that developing a working stellar engine to move the Sun – dragging the solar system behind it – out of the way of a rogue supernova – would bestow on its inventors the title of “Type-II civilization,” which Soviet astronomer Nikolai Kardashev defined as a civilization that can use and control energy at the scale of its stellar system. For comparison, our current civilization (us) is nowhere near Type-I — a planetary civilization capable of using and storing all of the energy available on our planet.
Wait a minute, you say, what about that guy Matthew E. Caplan? Didn’t he develop a plan?
Yes, he did. And in fact, his “Caplan thruster” uses something that has been proposed as an explanation for those blinking or dimming stars, like Tabby’s star, that astronomers have been discovering with greater frequency – a Dyson sphere cluster. Caplan first considered a giant solar sail which would passively move the Sun via its own solar energy. However, “At full throttle, the solar system could probably be moved by about a hundred light-years over 230 million years” – too slow to save the Sun and solar system from most catastrophes. For that we’ll need a star-sized Brussard ramjet – a fusion rocket which compresses hydrogen from massive electromagnetic fields until thermonuclear fusion occurs, causing energy to blast out of the exhaust, thrusting the Sun in the opposite direction at a speed of 50 light-years per million years – fast enough to save civilization – provided it survives the move.
That doesn’t sound too complicated, you say, so when can we start building a Caplan thruster … just in case?
Well, the Brussard ramjet – despite approval by great minds including Carl Sagan – is still theoretical. The magnetic sail is also theoretical, but much closer to reality. And the Dyson sphere or star-circling cluster of electromagnetic-energy-collecting mirrors is a daunting project for a civilization still struggling with solar energy panels.
However … if a dimming orb like Tabby’s star is already surrounded by one, that means a Type II civilization already exists in a nearby solar system and, upon seeing our potential demise, it might come over and build one for us in a galactic-sized barn-raising or “help us move our apartment” kind of way. How much beer and pizza would that cost us?
So, what does our Type .0001% of I civilization have to save our sorry butts from a supernova apocalypse? A possible but far from plausible theory. An excellent design paper and entertaining animation to help us. And two great names for bands – the Caplan Thrusters and the Brussard Ramjets.
Also great porn star names … which are probably what we really need because we’re screwed.

AMAZING footage of a triangular-shaped UFO over New York
AMAZING footage of a triangular-shaped UFO over New York
Another triangle UFO video was recorded over New York a few days ago. This one over Rome on 21st December.
What’s you opinion?
Witness Description:
It was hovering over my backyard for about 10 mins then it just vanished or maybe just turned off the lights it had no sound.
Sighting Specifics:
Distance 21-100 Feet Altitude Treetop Duration 00:03:00 Features Other Flight Path Stationary Shape Triangle
BEAMS Comment:
The configuration of this latest triangle UFO capture is identical to that of a fabulous still catch by the *late UFOlogist/BEAMS investigator Gordon Dungavel, back in 2014: check it out here.
There are striking similarities between how these triangles were observed as well; the 2014 UK object hovered almost above Gordon's garden - same with this latest case over in America... it hovered silently above the witness' "backyard".
Gordon had no lights switched on in his house whatsoever - and there are no streetlamps outside his home either. He described what he saw as a 'black triangle' that made no sound, which had one huge bright light in the middle and three dimmer ones at each corner the object.
*Sadly, Gordon and his wife Tracy were found dead at their home 11 July 2016; causes of death were never established: One headline some weeks later read An investigation has been launched into the death of a top UFO investigator and his wife after their bodies were found at their home last month...
Several private enquiries that we made about the sudden demise of our friends, (who were only in their mid fifties) proved fruitless - and despite a later official inquest, only an 'open' verdict was given by the coroner; their deaths remain a mystery.
Even more bizarrely, since then, all web news articles about this puzzling case seem to have been removed - leaving just broken links.

What we now know (and still don't) about life on Mars
What we now know (and still don't) about life on Mars
By Lauren Kent, CNN
(CNN)For decades, space was the final frontier. But as space exploration advanced, scientists increasingly set their sights on a new frontier: Mars.
The first lander to reach Mars was launched nearly 50 years ago, but much about the red planet remains a mystery. Scientists are still attempting to bring samples of Mars' red soil back to Earth for further study, and human trips to Mars are still years from being feasible.
After decades of roving, research, and taking illuminating photos of the red planet, the biggest question remains: Could there be life on Mars?
Breakdown of a planet
To understand Mars' potential for life, we need to go back in time about 3 or 4 billion years.
At that time, Mars and Earth shared many of the same characteristics. The red planet was warm and wet, with a robust atmosphere -- a far cry from the cold, unforgiving place it is today.
"Mars is a planet that started with all the same raw materials as Earth, but along the way has suffered changes," said the European Space Agency's Director of Human and Robotic Exploration, David Parker. "You could say it's kind of broken down."
Because it was once Earth's sister planet, Parker said scientists must ask themselves, "When life got going on Earth, did it get going on Mars?"
Mars lost its magnetic field, meaning nothing shields the planet (or potential life forms) from radiation. Mars also lost most of its atmosphere -- another deviation from Earth, where the atmosphere supports life by giving us oxygen and acting as a blanket for the planet.
"Mars still has an atmosphere but it's very thin and mostly carbon dioxide, so it's colder," explained Parker.
That means the average temperature on Mars is -81 degrees Fahrenheit, which makes it an unforgiving planet for most life forms.
Signs of life
But just because Mars is cold and unprotected doesn't mean scientists have ruled out finding life.
In 2018, NASA's Curiosity rover found organic matter on Mars, which could mean that the building blocks for life once existed, or still exist, on Mars.

"Organic matter preservation is central to understanding biological potential on Mars through time," wrote NASA researchers in the journal Science. "Whether it holds a record of ancient life, is the food for extant life, or has existed in the absence of life, organic matter in martianmaterials holds chemical clues to planetary conditions and processes."
NASA's rover has also detected methane on Mars, which is considered the most simple organic molecule and could be another chemical clue of life.
"With our current measurements, we have no way of telling if the methane source is biology or geology, or even ancient or modern," said Paul Mahaffy, director for NASA Goddard's Solar System Exploration Division, in a June press release.
Meanwhile, Europe and Russia's ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter launched in 2016 with the aim of detecting atmospheric gases that could mean there's active, biological life on Mars. The ESA's Parker said that while the Curiosity Rover found methane on parts of the surface, they have not detected methane all across Mars' atmosphere.
The ExoMars 2016 lifts off on a Proton-M rocket in Baikonur, Kazakhstan. One of the scientific objectives of the collaborative project between the European Space Agency (ESA) and the Russian Federal Space Agency is to search for signs of past and present life on Mars.

"We have not seen methane globally on Mars, which means methane gas is being produced somehow," Parker said. "So is there a methane cycle on Mars?"
The discovery of localized methane presents an exciting breakthrough because a common source of methane on Earth is microbial life, according to NASA.
Water is key
Water and ice on Mars also provide valuable clues that suggest Mars might be more habitable than once thought.
In 2015, NASA scientists thought they found evidence of occasional flowing, salty water flows across the surface of Mars. However, another NASA study in 2017 determined that the flows were most likely grains of sand and dust.
But another breakthrough came in 2018 when the European Space Agency detected a small lake of liquid water beneath the southern polar ice cap of Mars, which the ESA said could further contribute to knowledge about Mars' evolution and habitability.
And this year, NASA's Curiosity rover found evidence in Mars' Gale Crater that there were once ancient salty lakes on the surface -- another hint that the red planet could have once supported microbial life.
"Water is key because almost everywhere we find water on Earth, we find life," wrote NASA on their website.
It's not just liquid water that space scientists are interested in, but also ice. Parker said the ESA is currently working on research about the ice below Mars' surface.
"We're getting more and more information about subsurface water ice ... it's further from the poles thanwe thought," Parker told CNN.
Ice could be further evidence of habitable conditions, and it could also be a valuable resource if space agencies send humans to Mars one day.
Human missions to Mars?
To unravel the more complex mysteries surrounding life on Mars, scientists want to collect samples, which would require a round-trip mission.
"Because the really powerful scientific instruments are huge, we can't take them and never will be able to take them to Mars. So we need to bring Mars back to Earth," Parker said. "By bringing Mars back, we can study it for the next 50 years."

Although no space agency has yet figured out how to launch an unmanned craft from the surface of Mars to get samples back to Earth, one way to bring back Martian samples would be for astronauts and cosmonauts to collect them in person.
But reaching Mars, which at its closest point is still about 33.9 million miles away from Earth, would be a feat of engineering.
"It's is an order of magnitude farther away. You're talking about a 3-year round-trip mission," said NASA spokeswoman Stephanie Schierholz.
If reaching the Moon was one giant leap for mankind, reaching Mars would be more like an Olympic long jump. And unlike traveling to the International Space Station (a mere 250 miles above Earth), traveling to Mars would potentially require a lot more packing.
"We send up resupply missions every few months (to the space station)," Schierholz said. "We don't have the luxury of doing that if we go to Mars."
Despite the challenges, NASA is aiming to send astronauts to Mars by 2035. That means the firstlife on Mars could be us.

Last month, the United States Navy confirmed formally that two high profile videos allegedly captured from the nose of an F/A-18 Super Hornet attempting an intercept on an Unidentified Aerial Phenomena were real and notably, weren’t meant for release to the public. The Navy did not suggest that the strange craft shown in the videos was alien in origin, but rather did acknowledge that they truly didn’t know what they were seeing that night in January of 2015.
“I truly thought the official word on these videos would be ‘drones’ or something similar; but explainable,” John Greenewald, Jr, who runs the popular website The Black Vault, told SOFREP at the time. Greenewald was the man that got the Navy to discuss the videos, leading to a landslide of headlines throughout the media in the weeks that followed.
“We have official documents that have surfaced through FOIA that state just that. However, for the Navy to contradict that, and say that this ‘phenomena’ represents something ‘unidentified’ – that’s pretty amazing to me and proves yet again why we can’t lock ourselves into any one way of thinking or assume anything.”
Reports of unusual lights in the sky date all the way back to the beginning of recorded history, but there’s another unusual phenomena that often seems to coincide with these strange sightings that gets far less attention in the press: USOs, or Unidentified Submerged Objects. Like UFOs (Unidentified Flying Objects), USO is a sort of catch-all term used to describe anything seen operating beneath the surface of a body of water that defies explanation. Legends of USOs have permeated the maritime community for centuries, and remain a common facet of discussion among UFO researchers to this day. In fact, many UFO witness statements, including those provided by military aviators, have suggested that the unusual crafts they’ve spotted flying in the sky seem to operate just as readily in the far denser medium of water — suggesting that these unusual objects can function beneath the surface of the ocean just as well as they can in the air.
Even Christopher Columbus reportedly had a USO sighting during his 1492 voyage to the Americas. According to Columbus’ log, he spotted “a small wax candle that rose and lifted up, which too few seemed to be an indication of land.” They soon determined that it wasn’t a light source from land, but had instead been out at sea — leading to a centuries-long mystery that stands to this day. A more contemporary sighting near Shag Harbor in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia saw a UFO apparently crashing into the harbor’s waters in front of a number of witnesses in 1967. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police even launched rescue efforts early on, assuming the sightings were of a downed aircraft. Their efforts however, turned up nothing.
If the idea of an unidentified, fast moving craft operating under water seems just a bit too out of this world, you should know that USOs may not even be all that uncommon — the U.S. Navy just doesn’t make a habit of keeping track of them (much like UFOs or UAPs until recently).
Earlier this year, Tylor Rogoway at The War Zone interviewed a number of veteran U.S. Navy submariners, some of whom were SONAR operators with first hand experience spotting these unidentified underwater anomalies. Rogoway was looking for more information pertaining to an unsubstantiated story posted to social media by Tom Delonge, former Blink 182 front man turned UFO researcher and founder of To the Stars Academy — a high profile media think tank that champions disclosure of UFO related materials..
That story can be traced back to UFO researcher Marc D’Antonio, who claimed to be given a courtesy ride on a U.S. Navy fast attack submarine, during which he was present as a sonar operator identified a “fast mover” moving at hundreds of knots under the water in close proximity to the sub. D’Antonio’s story doesn’t quite add up in a number of ways (as one former submariner points out in Rogoway’s piece, “we don’t give ‘rides’ as favors”) but his account of a fast moving, unidentified object spotted by Navy personnel and then disregarded seems to ring true with those that have spent time operating America’s undersea vessels.
I don’t know what they are… We usually logged it as seismic or biologic. We were instructed that nothing is ever ‘unknown.'” Explained a former submariner turned professional gamer that now goes by the name “Jive Turkey.”
“That’s the thing, it’s so quick you can’t measure the speed. In the examples I am thinking of, it is a detection that lasts a few seconds on the towed array. There is no way to measure the speed accurately because there isn’t enough data… I agree it’s odd. There are a lot of odd things in the ocean. Mainly, submariners!”
Jive Turkey’s funny name notwithstanding, he’s not the only former submariner to acknowledge unusual readings from America’s nuclear submarines that suggested they weren’t alone in the water. Unsurprisingly, however, these anomalies tend to go ignored unless they represent a threat to the vessel or an obstacle between the crew and accomplishing their mission. The ocean is vast, full of man made ships and living creatures, and things like sound travel differently through water than they do through air. As a result, living and working beneath the waves comes with a certain acceptance of the eerie as a new “normal.” In other words, strange is just a part of business when you’re operating a fast attack sub.
In the minds of some, these sightings are related to other unexplained ocean phenomena, like the infamous “Bloop” — which was a massive underwater sound recorded in 1997. The sound was so loud that it was recorded simultaneously on underwater microphones located more than 3,000 miles apart. In the years since, the Bloop has been explained away as an underwater earthquake or tectonic shift, but some remain unconvinced.
According to Navy submariners, standard operating procedure doesn’t allow for the exploration of strange readings that pop up on sonar or other systems, and there is no procedure established for the further investigation of these sightings. That means that unusual objects beneath the surface of the ocean largely go unreported altogether, provided whatever is spotted doesn’t appear as though it will interfere with the mission.
Without reporting guidelines and government disclosure, we may never know if USO sightings are highly rare or entirely commonplace, but submariner accounts confirm that weird stuff is normal in the dark depths of Earth’s oceans. Just like with sightings in the sky, weird doesn’t have to mean alien — it just means unexplained… for now.
You never know what you could find in the depths of the ocean. Never-before-seen alien-like organisms are discovered all the time. This time, a diver exploring the depths of a fjord in Orstafjord Norway came across a huge alien blob. The video has captivated the internet with over 491K views to date.
Diver Ronald Raasch with the research vessel REV Ocean was exploring the site of a WWII shipwreck in early October. As a group of divers returned to the boat, Raasch and captain Nils Baadnes came across the blob about 55 feet beneath the surface. Inside, the transparent egg contains thousands of squirming babies.
See the mesmerizing video below:
Later on Twitter, the REV Ocean team posted a Tweet:
#Mystery solved! #REVOcean captain @Nils Baadnes & Ronald Raasch discovered this giant gel ball while diving in Orstafjord #Norway, which is actually an eggmass of 10-armed #squid 🦑👀

#Mystery solved! #REVOcean captain @Nils Baadnes & Ronald Raasch discovered this giant gel ballwhile diving in Orstafjord #Norway, which is actually an eggmass of 10-armed #squid
Although the researchers identified the blob as an egg sac produced by a 10-armed squid, that doesn’t identify which species it might be. All squid have ten arms.
These alien squid sacs are rarely seen since they are thought to be laid deep down in the ocean, sinking ever-lower to 500 feet. At these depths, the babies hatch and start their lives in the cover of darkness.
Science Alertnoted different squid species have different egg sacs. Scientists suspect the female squids lay a small mass that expands to a larger size.
One species has been seen inflating the egg with water.
“Squids that live in the Norwegian Sea that the fjord connects to include the European flying squid (T. sagittatus) and the much smaller Boreoatlantic armhook squid (Gonatus fabricii). However, another Gonatus species, G. onyx, has been observed actually brooding its eggs, so it may be a less likely candidate.
Interestingly, G. onyx has also been observed pumping seawater into her egg mass to inflate it, so that may be another clue about how the masses get so big.”
Another even bigger squid sac was discovered in 2015. National Geographic shared a video of a 13-foot-wide egg sac from a neon flying squid.
(pictured above)
The jellylike substance helps protect the eggs from predators as well as infection and bacteria.
