MUFON CASE : 115306 Chicago, Illinois ( May 11, 2021 )
Mutual UFO Network : MUFON SUBMISSIONS :Looking from back porch towards Lake Michigan (east) I spot what I thought was a drone
Long Description of Sighting Report
At 8:43 PM looking due east 101 degrees, 600 feet elevation, California and Hirsch Ave, I observed a bright red light appearing from above the treetops(buildings) then darting across the sky. From where I was standing it covered 22” of my view moving from the south to north in less than a second. Then it covered about 30” of my view in the same amount of time. It moved towards the upper right or from North to south with a steep incline above the horizon. Almost a triangular pattern as it’s trajectory then it was gone. It did have blinking lights of various colors. I have lived in the city for 27 years and have observed flights patterns and now even drones. I have never seen something do this. Then as I was typing up this report I saw two sets of lights I thought were planes but seemed to be in sync with their blinking or flashing lights just at the horizon from my second floor apartment. I do have video of those two. That occurred about 5 minutes after the initial sighting.
MUFON CASE : 115308 Rio Rancho, New Mexico ( May 12, 2021 )
Mutual UFO Network : MUFON SUBMISSIONS :Circular upward direction of multiple objects Long Description of Sighting Report
Very windy afternoon and objects looked like they could be being carried by a dust devil but then moved North rather abruptly, then circled up again. Have a short crappy video. Didn't think much of it until I saw a similar post on a tiktok in the same area a month and a half later.

UFOs Sighted Over Boise, Idaho ( April 16, 2021 )
STATEMENT : I saw something that I have never seen before, not sure what it was. Long Description of Sighting Report
I was sitting on my back porch on an amazing Friday evening waiting for my girlfriend to come over. It was April 16th and the sky was so blue, I was just thinking to myself how pretty it was. Way off in the distance I was what look kind of like maybe geese flying but way far away and pretty high up. At first it looked like black outline of birds but then they started spinning, turned silver white and kind of exploded in the sky. Hard to explain. I had some sense to run into the house and grab my cell phone and I started to try and record what I was seeing. The video attached, play it really slow before my fat finger dips in and you can see a number of the "?" what ever this is. I looked in the news but did not see if anyone else had seen anything.

Two object on drone video. One flew right at the drone at more than 500 mph. I was flying my drone around our property. During the review of the footage taken, I noticed two objects within the same video. They were about two minutes apart from each other. My drone was almost stationary for the duration of the sightings. As I was flying the drone I didn't notice these two objects or hear anything. I had my drone pointing North and hovering about 150 off the ground.
The first object was high in the sky and looked to be descending at about 30 degrees and was moving very fast. . You can see it in the left top corner of the video.
A few minutes later another object appeared to come from the ground about 800 feet away and flew towards my drone. Looking at the video timeline and using Google Earth I figured the second object flew 800 feet within 4 seconds. That is around 540 mph.

On May 5, 2021 a strange anomaly flew right towards a drone at more than 500 mph.
The object appeared to come from the ground about 800 feet away. Looking at the video timeline and using Google Earth I figured the object flew 800 feet within 4 seconds. That is around 540 mph.
After enlarging the still images, the anomaly somewhat resembles a bird, but no bird can reach the speed of this anomaly.
For example: The peregrine falcon is indisputably the fastest animal in the sky. It has been measured at speeds above 83.3 m/s (186 mph), but only when diving, but this anomaly flies 3 times the speed of the fastest bird.
What kind of anomaly or animal can fly 3 times faster than that of the fastest bird in the sky. Location of the sighting: Linwood, Texas, Mufon case 115295.
Some believe UFOs are the craft of space aliens, but others think they are nothing more than meteors, misidentifications of the planet Venus, and overactive imagination. However, reports of UFOs have not let up over the decades as strange craft, and mysterious lights continue to be seen in the skies.
The skies over Wirral are no exception.
On August 10, 1947, Lancashire and Cheshire police spotted a triangular UFO hovering over Birkenhead, coming from the river.
Days later, dozens of people observed the same object skimming over the rooftops of Birkenhead and Bebington.
On October 19, 1963, a massive golden disc-shaped UFO was seen hovering 500 feet above the Woodchurch estate.
Around the same time, a tugman reported spotting a glowing green saucer UFO passing over Rock Ferry and then plunging into the Mersey.
On June 23, 1974, a large black disc UFO gliding over great Sutton was seen to change into a cigar-shaped craft flying upwards until going out of sight.
Days after, a white dome-topped saucer giving off rainbow colour was observed flying over Pensby.
On May 25, 1975, people across Wirral saw a glowing disc flying across the full moon’s face before it descended somewhere near Thornton Hough.
In a redacted letter published earlier this month, the DoD's Office of the Inspector General announced it will investigate how these incidents and others have been handled.
According to the letter, the key goal of the Pentagon probe is to "determine the extent to which the DoD has taken actions regarding Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP)" - the official term for UFOs.
The probe will look into a number of different branches of the DoD, including the Offices of the Secretary of Defense, Military Services,
Combatant Commands and the Defense Agencies among others.
The Pentagon's UFO report is expected to be published this summer or 180 days after it passed as part of a £1.64trillion ($2.3trillion) Coronavirus relief bill.

Drake's Equation explained: Do you believe aliens are real and visiting us?
Hidden among the 5,600-paged document, the bill called on America's intelligence services to spill the beans on UFOs before the US Senate.
The bill stipulated the report must include a "detailed analysis of unidentified aerial phenomenon data and intelligence reporting".
The recently announced Pentagon probe was welcomed by Nick Pope, who formerly investigated UFO sightings for the British Ministry of Defence.
Mr Pope criticised the US's handling of recent headlines and as well as the country's response to reports of apparent UFOs zipping around in American airspace.
He now told his more than 57,900 Twitter followers: "The US government is getting itself into an utter mess over its handling of the UFO issue.
"Problems include a failure of intelligence, lack of clear strategic direction, disagreement over policy and handling issues, and inconsistent media statements.
In another tweet, he suggested the probe is proof of multiple fractions within the Pentagon struggling for control.
Mr Pope said: "I seldom repost my old Tweets, but the DOD Inspector General announcing an evaluation of DOD's handling of the UFO issue should *absolutely* be viewed as part of the struggle that I mentioned the day before the announcement. There are disagreements. There are factions."
When the Pentagon acknowledged the UFO video earlier last year, many were expecting the US Government to straight admit aliens are real and they are here.
Instead, Pentagon spokeswoman Sue Gough said the video was released to the public to dismiss any misconceptions about whether or not it was real.
However, this was not to be seen as the Pentagon making any statement about the speculative nature of mysterious object seen in the video.
Ms Gough said: "After a thorough review, the department has determined that the authorized release of these unclassified videos does not reveal any sensitive capabilities or systems and does not impinge on any subsequent investigations of military air space incursions by unidentified aerial phenomena."
There is no tangible evidence to suggest technologically advanced aliens are visiting our planet.
There is also no evidence to suggest life in our solar system - however complex - exists beyond the confines of our planet.
But UFO enthusiasts remain undeterred and are awaiting the Pentagon's report this summer.
UFO expert Nick Pope reacts to the whistleblower interview on 'Tucker Carlson Tonight'
A Pentagon watchdog is launching a probe into how the Department of Defense has addressed "Unidentified Aerial Phenomena" or UAP, after a string ofUFO sightings in recent years that have been spotted by military aircraft.
In a Monday memo to military and intelligence leaders, Randolph Stone, assistant inspector general for evaluations on space, intelligence, engineering and oversight, said the objective of the probe is to determine the extent to which the DoD has taken actions regarding Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP).
"We may revise the objective as the evaluation proceeds, and we will consider suggestions from management for additional or revised objectives," he added.
The Office of Inspector General typically investigates whistleblower complaints and allegations of wrongdoing, among other matters.
It was not clear who decided to launch the probe or what investigators will specifically look for.

(Department of Defense)
The Pentagon created the Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon Task Force following several unexplained incidents observed by the military. It is tasked with detecting, analyzing and cataloging UAPs that could potentially pose a threat to U.S. national security.
In an interview with the New York Post, Luis Elizondo, the former head of the Pentagon's Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, recently raised the possibility that so-called UFOs are actually "adversarial foreign technology that for several decades now has managed to leapfrog us."
Monday's announcement comes as Congress awaits a report from the Pentagon and U.S. intelligence agencies about the presence of UFOs. Some government officials have accused the military and spy agencies of blocking or ignoring efforts to catalog instances of UAP, Politico reported.
Het is zeer waarschijnlijk dat de hoeveelheid microplastics in de oceanen, zeeën en havens over de hele wereld minimaal twee keer zo groot is als voorheen werd gedacht. Een nieuw onderzoek toont aan dat de vervuilingvan de wereldoceanen door microplastics veel dramatischer blijkt te zijn dan eerder gedacht en geschat werd.
2 keer zoveel microplastics in oceanen dan gedacht | Foto: Pixabay
Nieuw onderzoek – de cijfers
Dit is ontdekt in een nieuwe studie, gepubliceerd in het tijdschrift Environmental Pollution, waarbij een nog fijnere versie van het fijnmazig net dat voor eerdere onderzoek gebruikt werd is ingezet om microplastics op te vangen.
Professor Pennie Lindeque, onderzoeker van de Plymouth Marine Laboratory in het Verenigd Koninkrijk, leidde het onderzoek. In het onderzoek werden netten met maaswijdtes gebruikt van 100 microns (100 microns = 0,1 mm), 333 microns en 500 microns. Er werden 2,5 keer zo veel deeltjes gevonden in het fijnste net dan in het 333 micron net wat normaal gesproken gebruikt wordt om microplastics te filteren en 10 keer zoveel deeltjes als in het 500 micron net. De deeltjes waren grotendeels vezels van textielen zoals touwen, netten en kleding.
Onderzoekers zeefden de kustwateren van zowel het Verenigd Koninkrijk als de Verenigde Staten en vonden beduidend meer deeltjes met netten met een maaswijdte van 100 microns. De globale schattingen van microplastics aan de oppervlakte van het water zijn daarmee gestegen van tussen de 5 en 50 biljoen deeltjes naar tussen de 12 biljoen en 125 biljoen deeltjes. En zelfs deze schatting kan te laag zijn, er kunnen namelijk nog kleinere microplastic deeltjes in de oceanen en zeeën rondzwerven die niet door de 100 micron visnetten gevangen kunnen worden.
Lindeque voegde hier nog het volgende aan toe:
“Gebruikmakend van een extrapolatie, zijn we van mening dat de microplasticsdichtheid meer dan 3.700 deeltjes per kubieke meter kan zijn, wat veel meer is dan de hoeveelheid zoöplankton per kubieke meter. Deze microscopische dieren zijn één van de meest overvloedige diersoorten op aarde.”
De vraag is natuurlijk, wat heeft het voor invloed op het biosysteem als er minuscule plastic deeltjes drijven in de oceaan? Om daar een passend antwoord op te geven moeten we iets dieper kijken naar hoe de voedselketen precies is opgesteld in de oceanen en zeeën wereldwijd. Hieronder een diagram van de voedselketen van zeedieren om dit iets duidelijker te maken. De oorsprong van elke pijl is het dier dat voedsel is van het dier waar de pijl eindigt.
Het punt in deze voedselketen waar microplastics een probleem vormen begint bij zoöplankton, wat een verzamelnaam is voor dieren die niet tegen de stroming kunnen inzwemmen. Dit zijn voornamelijk minuscule dieren (zoals de roeipootkreeftjes, van 0,5 mm tot 5 mm, die driekwart van alle zoöplankton in de Noordzee uitmaken), al behoren kwallen ook tot deze categorie. Om de roeipootkreeftjes als voorbeeld te nemen, dit dier is één van de vele soorten zoöplankton en naar schatting zijn er 1 biljoen roeipootkreeftjes in alle oceanen en zeeën in de wereld. Uit het nieuwe onderzoek is gebleken dat er in sommige wateren meer microplastic deeltjes zijn dan zoöplankton.
De microplasticdeeltjes zijn ongeveer dezelfde grootte als het voedsel van zoöplankton en komt via het zoöplankton terecht in de voedselketen van zeedieren. Het is ook mogelijk dat plastic wordt opgegeten door vissen en zeezoogdieren wanneer zij hun voedsel proberen op te eten, wanneer dan door de grote dichtheid van microplastics in sommige gebieden de deeltjes ook worden opgenomen.
Zoöplankton, tezamen met de plantaardige variant fytoplankton, vormen een belangrijke basis voor de voedselketen in de oceanen, ze dienen als voedsel voor de kleinste vissen tot de grootste walvissen. Echter, ze zijn meer dan alleen de grootste voedselbron voor al het leven in de zee. Zo zorgt fytoplankton voor 70% van de zuurstof op aarde en zorgen de verschillende plankton soorten samen ervoor dat de aarde afkoelt. Het is onlangs ontdekt dat boven oceanen met grote hoeveelheden geconcentreerde planktongroepen een grotere hoeveelheid wolken tot stand komt dan in wateren zonder plankton. De grotere hoeveelheid wolken helpt weer om de aarde af te koelen. Het is dus belangrijk dat plankton gezond blijft, niet alleen voor het leven in de zee, maar ook voor onze levens.
Invloed buiten de oceanen
Een ander, nieuw onderzoek laat zien hoe microplastics ook de voedselketen rondom rivieren binnen is gedrongen, waarbij de onderzochte vogels (waterspreeuwen) die als voeding waterinsecten hebben zo’n 200 plastic deeltjes consumeren per dag. Deze deeltjes waren voornamelijk vezels, en een kwart van deze deeltjes waren groter dan 500 microns. Zij voedden deze deeltjes dan vervolgens ook weer aan hun kuikens. Uit het onderzoek bleek dat ongeveer de helft van de waterinsecten microplastic deeltjes in zich hadden.
De onderzoeksleider, Professor Steve Ormerod van Cardiff University, zei hierover:
“In de bijna 40 jaar dat we deze rivieren en waterspreeuwen onderzoeken had ik nooit gedacht dat onze onderzoeksresultaten ooit zouden aantonen dat deze spectaculaire vogels in gevaar zouden komen door de inname van plastic. Het is een aanduiding van hoe het vervuilingsprobleem ons beslopen heeft.“
Microplastics hebben inmiddels de gehele planeet vervuild, van de Arctische sneeuw en berg bodems tot vele rivieren en de diepste oceanen. Het wordt ook geconsumeerd en ingeademd door mensen en wat voor gevolgen dit heeft voor onze gezondheid is tot dusver niet bekend. Wat wel bekend is, is dat de plasticvervuiling de vruchtbaarheid, groei en overleving van zeedieren schaadt.
Oorzaak en gevolg
De oorzaak van de hoeveelheid plastic op aarde is eenvoudig, het is een ontzettend handig materiaal en we gebruiken het voor van alles. Sinds het in de jaren vijftig van de vorige eeuw in massaproductie is gegaan, hebben we 6,3 miljard ton (6,300.000.000.000 kg!) plastic verbruikt. Hiervan is 600 miljoen ton gerecycled. De rest is of in stortplaatsen of in de natuur terechtgekomen.
Onderzoek dat afgelopen maand is gepubliceerd liet zien dat microplastics in grotere hoeveelheden dan ooit tevoren zich op de bodem van de oceaan bevinden. Het onderzoek gaf ook aan dat honderdduizenden tonnen aan microplastics jaarlijks op de kust terechtkomen door de wind en het getij.
Onze redacteur Roy Geers was vorig jaar op rondreis door Vietnam, waarbij hij langs het vissersdorpje Mui Ne kwam. Toen hij googlede op ‘Mui Ne’ kwamen verschillende foto’s tevoorschijn, met prachtige, witte stranden, schone wateren. Paradijs op aarde. De afbeelding hieronder is de eerste afbeelding die Google laat zien. De tweede afbeelding is één van de foto’s die hij had gemaakt toen hij er was. Dit was vrijwel de gehele kustlijn zo, behalve bij de stranden voor 5 sterren resorts.

Oplossingsgerichte initiatieven
Er zijn de laatste jaren al vele initiatieven geweest om het plasticprobleem tegen te gaan. Van kleine zaken zoals het weghalen van gratis plastic tassen in supermarkten en winkels tot grotere zaken zoals ‘The Ocean Cleanup’, opgericht door de Nederlandse Boyan Slat. De initiatieven verschillen in aanpak, schaal en effectiviteit. De hierboven beschreven initiatieven zijn reactief, en waar de maatregel vanuit de overheid meer een pleister op een open wond is, is het project van Boyan Slat een stuk effectiever.
Het is echter ook belangrijk om het probleem bij de wortels aan te pakken en op een proactieve manier het gebruik van plastic verminderen en/of vervangen. Het probleem van ons plastic gebruik is namelijk dat we het niet alleen voor langdurige producten gebruiken, maar ook voor producten die maar een paar dagen/weken worden gebruikt. Sinds het erg lang duurt voordat plastic producten afbreken en er specifieke eisen aan vast hangen (bijvoorbeeld oxidatie), is het noodzakelijk om de toepassing van plastic in de producten die we gebruiken aan te passen.
Er zijn vele verschillende alternatieven die de laatste jaren uitgevonden zijn en sommige daarvan worden al voor een gedeelte toegepast. Het is echter zo dat sommige van deze alternatieven niet beter zijn dan plastic en alleen afbreekbaar zijn in ideale omstandigheden. Een voorbeeld daarvan is biologisch afbreekbare plastic tassen, wat in de meeste gevallen alleen in een stortplaats afbreekt en vaak ook niet kan afbreken in combinatie met andere plastic soorten. Een beter alternatief zou zijn composteerbare vuilniszakken, welke gewoon thuis in de achtertuin afgebroken kunnen worden. Een goed alternatief voor plastic producten in de supermarkt is MarinaTex, een bioplastic gemaakt van rode algen en organisch afval van de visserij. Dit is zowel eetbaar door mensen en vissen als dat het snel en overal afbreekbaar is.
Puntje bij paaltje kan er natuurlijk van alles gedaan worden om de verspreiding van plastic en daardoor dus ook microplastics tegen te gaan, maar achteraan de streep zijn wij met zijn allen verantwoordelijk. Manieren om de plasticvervuiling te verminderen zijn door een oude plastic tas mee te nemen voor die trip naar de supermarkt, of nog beter, koop een boodschappentas van verantwoorde materialen. Probeer te minderen in plastic gebruik en als het niet anders kan, hergebruik plastic. Gooi uw afval netjes weg en als u wat tegenkomt op straat, raap het op en stop het in een afvalbak. Doneer aan initatieven en stichtingen die het milieu beschermen. Als we allemaal ons best doen, kunnen zowel wij als onze kinderen genieten van de natuur die er nog is.
In nauwelijks zeventig jaar hebben we zoveel plastic geproduceerd en gebruikt dat microplastics in ieder ecosysteem op aarde terug te vinden zijn. De mobiliteit van die deeltjes begint stilaan te lijken op die van andere globale cyclussen zoals water of koolstof.
Tot nu toe werd aangenomen dat microplastics (plasticdeeltjes kleiner dan 5 milimeter) zich voornamelijk ophopen in zeeën en oceanen. Maar de microscopische deeltjes blijken mobieler dan gedacht, en verplaatsen zich evengoed vanuit maritieme ecosystemen via de atmosfeer terug naar het land. 'De rol van het maritiem milieu als een soort reservoir van microplastics is goed onderzocht,' verduidelijkt professor Janice Brahney, expert in aquatische systemen verbonden aan Utah State University. Brahney en haar team onderzochten hoe minusule plasticdeeltjes zich over de wereld verplaatsen. 'Onze bevindingen laten zien dat deze deeltjes ook vanuit de oceanen in de atmosfeer terecht komen en via neerslag opnieuw op land terecht komen. Meer nog, specifiek langs dit atmosferisch traject komt meer plastic aan land dan omgekeerd.'
Microplastics bewegen door verschillende biosystemen op een manier die vergelijkbaar is met andere biogeochemische kringlopen. Dat zijn wereldwijde kringlopen waarlangs chemische substanties zoals water, zuurstof of koolstof zich door verschillende sferen van de planeet bewegen. 'Neem water,' vertelt Brahney. 'Dat verdampt boven de zee, beweegt zich door de atmosfeer, regent uit boven het land om via de bodem en vervolgens rivieren weer naar zee te stromen. Microplastics volgen een vergelijkbaar traject. Bijvoorbeeld via afvalwater via een rivier naar de zee, om daar via verdamping van water in de atmosfeer terecht te komen en uit te regenen boven land. Daar slaan ze neer in de bodem, om later via de wind of erosie weer in beweging te komen.
Artificiële cyclus
Het maritieme milieu vormt dus geen eindpunt voor minuscule plastic deeltjes, aldus Brahney. ‘Microscopische plastic deeltjes reizen met het water mee, maar dat is niet de enige manier. We gingen ervan uit dat de atmosfeer enkel microplastics van het land naar de oceanen bracht. Dat blijkt niet zo te zijn, integendeel. De atmosfeer als traject voor microplastics brengt meer plastic van de zee naar het land dan omgekeerd. Dat valt te verklaren uit het feit dat er zich de voorbije decennia dermate veel plastic in het maritieme milieu heeft opgehoopt dat het een bron van microplastics is geworden via de atmosferische cyclus.'
Microplastics zijn ondertussen overal op aarde terug te vinden, van de diepzee tot in de lichamen van ijsberen op de Noordpool. ‘Net als andere chemische verbindingen bewegen de deeltjes zich door het water, de lucht, de bodem en de het leven op aarde. In enkele decennia tijd is er dus een nieuwe biogeochemische kringloop ontstaan die zich uitstrekt over de hele planeet, eentje die we in tegenstelling tot andere kringlopen volledig zelf gecreëerd hebben.'

NASA’S PERSEVERANCE ROVER STARTS SEARCHING FOR ALIEN LIFE BY BREAKING ROCKS IN AN EXTINCT LAKE

NASA’S PERSEVERANCE ROVER STARTS SEARCHING FOR ALIEN LIFE BY BREAKING ROCKS IN AN EXTINCT LAKE
The rover is exploring the Jezero Crater, which scientists believe used to home an ancient river
Nasa’s Perseverance rover has begun searching for extra-terrestrial life in a vacant lake.
The rover is using a camera called WATSON at the end of its mechanical arm to take detailed images of the rocks on the floor of the Jezero Crater.
This barren basin, Nasa believes, was once flooded with water and was the location of an ancient river – and where there is water, the agency believes, is a higher possibility of microbial life.
Perseverance is creating a timeline of when the ancient lake formed, when it dried up, and when sediment began accruing in the delta.
It is this difference in geology that might unlock the secrets to discovering alien life. If the rocks are sedimentary, like sandstone and limestone, there is a better chance that it will have preserved biosignatures from the Red Planet’s previous life.
Should the rocks be igneous, formed by volcanic activity which scientists believe could still be happening, what is lost in preservation is made up in chronology; scientists can use this data to build up a more accurate timeline of the crater. “The more rocks you look at, the more you know,” said Perseverance’s project scientist Ken Farley.
This is not an easy task, however. Rocks on Mars have been eroded by wind and could be covered by more recent sand and dust. On Earth, the solution is to crack open a rock sample with a hammer to study it in greater detail. Perseverance, unfortunately, does not have a hammer – but its robot arm is picking up the slack.
Scientists are able to use the abrader – a tool for wearing away external surfaces – at the end of the arm to grind and flatten the rock’s surface, revealing its internal structure and composition. This leaves it vulnerable to other tools the rover has to gather information about its chemical and mineral setup.
As well as digging in the ground, Perseverance is also looking to get more information about the Martian atmosphere. The small helicopter, Ingenuity, that came to Mars with the rover will continue flying for at least another month to conduct scientific experiments following the astounding success of its initial launch.

14.1 BILLION MILES FROM EARTH, VOYAGER 1 DETECTS A NEW COSMIC
14.1 BILLION MILES FROM EARTH, VOYAGER 1 DETECTS A NEW COSMIC "HUM"
“And I was like, ‘am I starting to see things?’”
A WEAK BUT PERSISTENT SIGNAL from theVoyager 1 spacecraft at first seemed like a fluke to Cornell University Ph.D. candidate Stella Koch Ocker.
“I was literally just kind of staring at a plot, and I thought I saw something really faint,” Koch Ocker tells Inverse. “And I was like, ‘am I starting to see things?’”
She wasn’t. In a new study, Koch Ocker and colleagues report a new signal coming in from the Plasma Wave System instrument aboard the craft. They used these observations to obtain a new measurement of the density of the interstellar medium, the thinly distributed mix of molecules, atoms, and ionized gas or plasma that fills the space between stars.
The research, published Monday in the journal Nature Astrophysics, provides the first continuous measurement of the density of the plasma in the interstellar medium, which previously had only been known in isolated spots.
By looking back at the last three years of observations from Voyager 1, the researchers were able to assemble consistent measurements of this elusive interstellar plasma. They continue to monitor it as Voyager 1 speeds out of the Solar System at more than 38,000 miles per hour. It is approximately 14.1 billion miles from Earth.
WHAT’S NEW
Prior methods of measuring the plasma density relied on picking up strong, intermittent bursts of signal from Voyager 1, which seemed to occur about once every year. The intermittency of the signal made it akin to a once-a-year massive “storm” of large plasma oscillation events.
Emerging in data taken from 2017 to 2020, the new signal is only a few times stronger than the sensitivity of the instrument, making it barely noticeable. The Plasma Wave System allows Voyager 1 to measure vibrations of plasma at specific frequencies — the newly detected signal is a low-frequency “hum” at roughly 3 kHz.
And rather than being associated with intermittent events, the signal came across steadily over the entire duration of the three years, with little change in its character.
“When we looked between and below these plasma oscillation events, we found this very weak persistent signal of plasma waves that appears to not be related to solar activity,” says Koch Ocker.
The continuity of the new signal means the researchers can produce measurements of plasma density all along the trajectory of the spacecraft, rather than at the isolated locations of the “storms.” Discovering this trickle in the furthest reaches of space was almost entirely unexpected.
A 2016 NASA illustration of the various regions Voyager will pass through on its journey to parts unknown.
HERE’S THE BACKGROUND
Voyager 1 is one of two groundbreaking NASA missions launched in 1977 with a mission to explore the outer planets of the Solar System. Voyager 1 and 2 have obtained stunning pictures and information about the cosmos, and have both been in continuous contact with Earth since their launch. Voyager 1 is the most distant human-made object in space.
To accomplish these feats, mission planners took advantage of a particular alignment between the planets that happens only once every 175 years. This alignment allowed the spacecraft to consecutively slingshot between them purely through the use of natural, gravitational forces.
After their main missions ended in 1989, with Voyager 2’s encounter of Neptune, the craft were both transitioned to an interstellar phase on their path out of the Solar System. In 2012, Voyager 1 reached interstellar space — an area no longer dominated by the influence of the Sun.
Physicists always expected there to be tenuous plasma out there. Plasma is a phase of matter formed when a gas is heated so hot that its atoms and molecules are torn apart into their constituent ions and electrons. In the region of space closest to us, our solar neighborhood, plasma is formed with distinctive characteristics from the heat and radiation of the Sun.
Space isn’t a true void — it’s filled with stray molecules of gas and solid matter, which get turned by the Sun's heat and radiation into plasma.
Outside this bubble, known as the heliosphere, the plasma of the interstellar medium was expected to take on alternate characteristics. Voyager 1 showed exactly how.

HOW THEY DID IT
Prior to Voyager 1, researchers could only get clues on the interstellar plasma from observations with distant telescopes. But once Voyager 1 passed beyond the heliopause, separating the Sun’s neighborhood from interstellar space, it began registering direct signals from the plasma. These signals came in the form of occasional bursts of strong electrical discharge.
The bursts were detected by Voyager 1’s Plasma Wave System, one of the few instruments still operating on the craft. The Plasma Wave System works a bit like a voltage meter an electrician might use on a household electric outlet. (The spacecraft had a more robust plasma spectrometer that was defective on Voyager 1, though the one aboard Voyager 2 is still functioning.)
The occasional torrents of plasma picked up by the instrument were strong, like measuring a hundred pounds on a weight scale whose smallest measurement is one pound. Scientists gradually put together a picture of these signals as being caused by shock waves that occasionally barge out from the sun, making the plasma in the vicinity of the spacecraft vibrate, which in turn causes oscillations in its electric field.
However, when analyzing the overall electrical measurements collected from 2017 to 2020, researchers discovered a weak yet smooth signal hiding in the background of the data. Though this signal has the same fundamental electrical nature, it is more like a constant pitter-patter, rather than the occasional rush of a storm.
WHY IT MATTERS
Both the strong, intermittent signals and the weak, steady signal provide important information on the nature of the interstellar plasma. In particular, the way that the plasma’s electric field fluctuates can be traced back directly to the plasma’s density.
Previously, researchers could only estimate the plasma’s density during the solar shock wave events. With the continuous data from the new signal, researchers can estimate the density of the plasma all along the spacecraft’s trajectory from 2017 to 2020. Moreover, the researchers find that the new density measurements are consistent with the old ones, having the same values when they were measured at the same time.
“IT'S PRETTY INCREDIBLE HOW A MISSION THAT'S SO OLD CAN STILL PRODUCE SUCH EXCITING NEW DISCOVERIES.”
The new results allow the researchers to turn a spotty record of plasma density with year-long gaps into a smooth, consistent record over space and time. The researchers find variations in the density with characteristic scales of 1 astronomical unit (AU), the distance between the earth and the sun. These variations have long been expected to arise due to turbulence in the interstellar medium.
The exact nature of the variations measured by the researchers will help inform whether the turbulence is primarily driven by huge, faraway sources like supernovae, or more local sources like the solar wind, Koch Ocker says.
WHAT’S NEXT
In addition to determining the nature of the interstellar turbulence, the researchers plan to find out more about the somewhat mysterious nature of the weak signal, which seemed to clearly emerge only in 2017, without any clear reason why.
For now, their best tool to attain further progress continues to be the 1970s era spacecraft of Voyager 1, the most loyal of probes, along with its sister probe of Voyager 2.
“It's pretty incredible how a mission that's so old can still produce such exciting new discoveries,” Koch Ocker says.
Abstract:
In 2012, Voyager 1 became the first in situ probe of the very local interstellar medium1. The Voyager 1 Plasma Wave System has given point estimates of the plasma density spanning about 30 au of interstellar space, revealing a large-scale density gradient2,3 and turbulence4 outside of the heliopause. Previous studies of the plasma density relied on the detection of discrete plasma oscillation events triggered ahead of shocks propagating outwards from the Sun, which were used to infer the plasma frequency and, hence, density5,6. We present the detection of a class of very weak, narrowband plasma wave emission in the Voyager 1 data that persists from 2017 onwards and enables a steadily sampled measurement of the interstellar plasma density over about 10 au with an average sampling distance of 0.03 au. We find au-scale density fluctuations that trace interstellar turbulence between episodes of previously detected plasma oscillations. Possible mechanisms for the narrowband emission include thermally excited plasma oscillations and quasi-thermal noise, and they could be clarified by new findings from Voyager or a future interstellar mission. The emission’s persistence suggests that Voyager 1 may be able to continue tracking the interstellar plasma density in the absence of shock-generated plasma oscillation events.

Black star Spaceship
Black star is the reported codename of a secret Spaceship
Aviation Week speculated that such a spacecraft could also have offensive military capabilities, a concept colloquially known as “The Space Bomber”.[3][4] The magazine also stated that it was likely that Black star would be mothballed, although it is unclear whether this is due to cost or failure of the program.
Navy Photograph in Space
Aviation Week describes Black star as a two-stage-to-orbit system, the first stage of which is a delta-winged supersonic jet (which Aviation Week referred to as the SR-3). Its description of SR-3 is similar to the North AmericanB-70 ValkyrieMach 3strategic bomber, and to patents filed in the 1980s by Boeing. The SR-3 would carry a second, smaller airframe, codenamed the XOV (eXperimental Orbital Vehicle) underneath, between its two laterally separated engine-banks, each containing 2 or 3 engines. This rocket-powered spaceplane, with similarities to the X-20 Dyna-Soar project, would be released by its mothership at an altitude of around 100,000 feet. The XOV would then light its rocket motor (aerospike engines, similar to those used by the Lockheed Martin X-33), and could achieve both suborbital and orbital flight; one source quoted by Aviation Week estimates the XOV could reach an orbit of 300 miles (480 km) above the Earth, depending on payload and mission profile. The XOV would then reenter the atmosphere and glide back to any landing site where it would land horizontally on a conventional runway. There is also the possibility the craft has anti-gravity propulsion.
Senate UFO Briefing
The Senate Select Committee on Intelligence has demanded an unclassified UAP report by June 25, 2021. It will be a huge test of UFO transparency and openness for the Biden Administration.
The bottom line is that Trump’s signature caused the Act to be enacted. That set the clock ticking and quick calendar consult set June 25 as the drop dead date for turning in the homework. Buried inside that massive bill filled with dry legislative language was this:
UFO Sighting
Dr. Bruce Cornet writes, “This is a very interesting sighting, and is one of the first UFOs I photographed at 10:53 pm on 23 June 1992.” I am updating and adding sightings to Appendix I of my book. There were five anomalous craft flying around Ellen, Rich, and me that night, which was quite an introduction for me to Pine Bush phenomenon. Another sighting later that night (11:22 pm) of a cigar-shaped craft unfolding wings and stabilizers, and pretending to be a Boeing 707, got more attention. But this photo shows the UFO backing up right after I opened the shutter, oscillating movement of its lights, as well as a conventional aircraft (strobes) above it in the background for comparison. It also shows the silhouette of the ground (ridge) and trees. June 8. 1992, UFO overWest Searsville Road at 10:53 pm. It flew south behind the ridge west of us, low, silently, disappearing behind the ridge) [Cornet, Ellen Crystall, and Rich Pascorella present] These are the first photographs Cornet took of UFOs exhibiting anomalous light signature of oscillations in 1992.
John Thompson who works in Security and is six feet five inches tall with an excellent physique called me to tell me he had been abducted the previous night. I visited his home where a 25 foot circle was cut into his back lawn showing a depression filled with stones. Tree limbs were broken from the tree above the circle. He was asleep when something woke him up and he looked out the window and saw a 25 foot disc. He stated a couple four foot aliens walked down the ramp of a disc and walked up to the bedroom window. Then they simply walked through the wall and window into John’s bedroom. They grabbed John and took him and kind of floated to the craft. They laid him down and undressed him and held a pen like object and then cut him across his chest from arm pit to arm pit.
After about an hour with some bleeding and pain, they took the pen and reversed the cutting action and closed the wound. They seemed to be searching for something under his skin near his heart and lungs. Later, I called a couple flight surgeons that came and examined John. They verified he had a two foot long scar about a month old and stated, “They had never seen a horizontal wound like that since there was no reason to cut a person like that. We speculated they may have done something to heal his heart. In succeeding weeks ETs frequently showed up in his home. He was willing to go on my TV Show “Investigations UFO” for several months to tell about his encounters. His wife became so upset by the alien visits she decided to divorce him.
A sixty year old Atlantic City lady was abducted with her daughter while driving on the Pennsylvania Turnpike near Pittsburg. Driving along the Pennsylvania Turnpike their car and the car following behind with the daughter’s husband and two children were picked up by a large alien ship. The cars were brought into a garage area with a dozen other cars. They were brought into a large room with human bodies standing upright in large glass containers. They were examined in detail on beds in a room with many other abductees. The grandmother was brought into the room with the bodies housed in round glass two and half feet in diameter. She was shown an attractive blonde twenty year old woman and asked if she would like to become that person. Her soul would be transferred but she would not remember her present life. She declined which made her captors upset. Later, their cars were let down on the Walt Whitman Bridge that crosses the Delaware River into New Jersey. They still had their Turnpike ticket and saved $15 in tolls and the gas tanks were full despite flying 300 miles between Pittsburg and Philadelphia in only two hours.. Both cars had what appeared to be small hand prints on the bodies but were not damaged.
Alleged ET Medical Teams
Ongoing extraterrestrial activity is taking place in Israel since 1995.
Alien medical teams from other realms or dimensions cure humans at Healers-Mediums alternative medicine clinics. Patients feel strange sensations during the treatments (itching, heat or cold, increase or decrease in gravity sensations and many more) and some even see and communicate with the Aliens medical teams.
The number of clinics has increased steadily and presently there are 50 clinics in Israel and 464 in the USA, (according to the Aliens). Alien alternative medicine clinics also exist in other countries (England, Denmark, Australia ). ET medical activity helps to raise public awareness and increase acceptance of Alien existence. Organized ET medical collaboration with Healers and Mediums is a leap forward in Alien-Human contact and collaboration beyond just UFO sighting, random contacts, encounters, abductions, or crash events as happened in Roswell. The Aliens treat humans in alternative medicine clinics only after the patients give their full consent. No abductions take place. In addition to the Alien medical activity, they willingly collaborate and answer questions on different issues including: information about Aliens and their activity on Earth, general science, astrophysics, and even Earth actuality events.

Mayan Artifacts Reveal Aliens Visited Earth
CALAKMUL, MEXICO (INTELLIHUB) — Newly released Mayan documents, i.e. artifacts, dating back at least 1300-years reveal that the human race is not alone and highly advanced technologies including space travel have likely existed for quite some time. Not only does this documentation released by the Mexican government show the existence of an explorer race, it may also reveal the roots of mankind. The Mexican government is releasing information held for 80-years.
Producer calls it the most important archaeological finding in the history of mankind.
MEXICO CITY — An underwater Maya city, a millennia-old landing pad once used for spacecraft, and human contact with extraterrestrials. These may sound like the makings of a blockbuster Hollywood film, but they’re actually the alleged discoveries behind the documentary “Revelations of the Mayans 2012 and Beyond.”
“It is the most important archaeological finding in the history of mankind,” he says. “It’s going to open the eyes of humanity and elevate the consciousness of every human being on the planet. I guarantee it.”
The documentary also unveils a 3,000-year-old spacecraft landing pad that was allegedly built atop a rock structure capable of holding electromagnetic energy.
The government’s presentation of the information to be a major step forward for humanity as the truth is finally being let out. Hopefully this will prompt other governments around the world to be more forthcoming with such information, turning the tide in the UFO and extraterrestrial research community for good. Sundance winner Juan Carlos Rulfo’s Revelations of the Mayans 2012 and Beyond also touches on such technology.
So far, the minister of tourism for the Mexican state of Campeche, Luis Augusto García Rosado, appears to be the highest-ranking government official to go on record confirming the discovery of extraterrestrial life, but he’s not holding back. In a statement, Rosado spoke of contact “between the Mayans and extraterrestrials, supported by translations of certain codices, which the government has kept secure in underground vaults for some time”. In a telephone conversation with the Wrap, he also spoke of “landing pads in the jungle that are 3,000 years old”. Thanks to Intellihub,–Arcturius.org, TheGuardian.com,–ConciusLifeNews.com,
These Hindu Texts Describe Flying Vimanas And An Ancient Nuclear War
Vimanas at top of Temples in India Ananta Vasudeva Temple
Ananta Vasudeva Temple is thought to be the oldest Hindu Temple in India and its towers are topped with models of vimanas. Dozens of temples throughout the country have clever models of the Vimanas usually on top of a structure that is similar to a mountain. Ananta Vasudeva Temple is a Hindu temple dedicated to Lord Krishna, an avatar of Lord Vishnulocated in Bhubaneswar, the state capital of Odisha, India. The temple was constructed in the thirteenth century, and Krishna, Balarama and Subhadra are worshipped there.
The Hindu Vedas are packed with fantastic stories about the gods, their powers, and epic battles that supposedly took place long ago. Their sagas are widely perceived to be mythological stories that were created to be taken as allegory, much like we tell our children fables, so they might glean useful life lessons to apply down the road. These Hindu myths talk of noble Gods who fight off wicked forces, flying craft called Vimanas, and nuclear war?
Vimana Technology Perhaps the most disturbing and challenging, information about these Vimanas in the ancient records is that there are some matter-of-fact records, describing how to build one. In their way, the instructions are quite precise. In the Sanskrit Samarangana Sutradhara, it is written: “Strong and durable must the body of the Vimana be made, like a great flying bird of light material. Inside one must put the mercury engine with its iron heating apparatus underneath. By means of the power latent in the mercury which sets the driving whirlwind in motion, a man sitting inside may travel a great distance in the sky.
The movements of the Vimana are such that it can vertically ascend, vertically descend, and move slanting forwards and backwards. With the help of the machines human beings can fly in the air and heavenly beings can come down to earth.” The Hakata (Laws of the Babylonians) states quite unambiguously: “The privilege of operating a flying machine is great. The knowledge of flight is among the most ancient of our inheritances. A gift from ‘those from upon high’. We received it from them as a means of saving many lives.” More fantastic still is the information given in the ancient Chaldern work, The Several, which contains over one hundred pages of technical details on building a flying machine. It contains words which translate as graphite rod, copper coils, crystal indicator, vibrating spheres, stable angles, etc. Thanks to Ancient Indian Aircraft Technology
ANCIENT VIMANA AIRCRAFT Contributed by John Burrows Sanskrit texts are filled with references to gods who fought battles in the sky using Vimanas equipped with weapons as deadly as any we can deploy in these more enlightened times. For example, there is a passage in the Ramayana which reads: “The Puspaka car that resembles the Sun and belongs to my brother was brought by the powerful Ravan; that aerial and excellent car going everywhere at will …. that car resembling a bright cloud in the sky.” “.. And the King [Rama] got in, and the excellent car at the command of the Raghira, rose up into the higher atmosphere.”
In the Mahabharatra, an ancient Indian poem of enormous length, we learn that an individual named Asura Maya had a Vimana measuring twelve cubits (19 feet) in circumference, with four strong wheels. The poem is a veritable gold mine of information relating to conflicts between gods who settled their differences apparently using weapons as lethal as the ones we are capable of deploying. Apart from ‘blazing missiles’, the poem records the use of other deadly weapons. ‘Indra’s Dart’ operated via a circular ‘reflector’.
When switched on, it produced a ‘shaft of light’ which, when focused on any target, immediately ‘consumed it with its power’. In one particular exchange, the hero, Krishna, is pursuing his enemy, Salva, in the sky, when Salva’s Vimana, the Saubha is made invisible in some way. Undeterred, Krishna immediately fires off a special weapon: ‘I quickly laid on an arrow, which killed by seeking out sound’. Many other terrible weapons are described, quite matter of factly, in the Mahabharata, but the most fearsome of all is the one used against the Vrishis. The narrative records: “Gurkha flying in his swift and powerful Vimana hurled against the three cities of the Vrishis and Andhakas a single projectile charged with all the power of the Universe. An incandescent column of smoke and fire, as brilliant as ten thousands suns, rose in all its splendor. It was the unknown weapon, the Iron Thunderbolt, a gigantic messenger of death which reduced to ashes the entire race of the Vrishnis and Andhakas.”
Mukteswara Temple Bhubaneswar
The Vimana aircraft that are described in ancient Hindu Sanskrit texts are flying machines of varying degrees. The word Vimana translates to “having been measured out” or “traversing,” and were machines piloted by the gods. Much like the chariots of biblical texts, most notably the one seen in Ezekiel’s vision of the wheel, these flying craft came in all shapes and sizes and could travel at different speeds and distances. Some were land and seafaring vehicles, while others flew, sometimes all the way to the moon or further.
The most well-known documentation of the ancient Vimana flying machines comes from the Vaimānika Śāstra, an early 20th century translation of many accounts of Vimana technology found in ancient Vedic scriptures. It details drawings of a range of crafts, including the sources of fuel used to power them, although some can be confusing. The translations talk of certain elements and minerals we are familiar with, like mica, quicksilver and mercury, but also mentions strange liquids referred to as honey, which may have been an unknown substance with a similar viscosity or appearance to a bee’s nectar.
On top of every Hindu temple or pyramid, one can find a Vimana, and often they are rounded, saucer-like objects, which certain theorists believe were the vehicles of extraterrestrials. Erich von Däniken points out the modern sightings that created our perception of UFOs look very similar to the Vimanas of ancient India.
Von Däniken also points out that the depiction of Shiva flying on his bird, Garuda, could easily have been a primitive description of an airplane or spacecraft. Garuda was known for dropping bombs, flying to the moon, and bringing Shiva to different locations throughout the solar system. In trying to explain this sight to future generations, the elders’ story of a “god” flying around on a “giant bird” or “bird-like” craft might sound ridiculous and be considered merely mythological to those who may have never witnessed it.
When we look closer at these Vimanas, the descriptions of the sounds they made and the way they looked when they took off begin to resemble jet propulsion more and more. One translation of a passage in the Vedic Mahabharata describes a Vimana.
“The Vimana had all necessary equipment. It could not be conquered by the gods or demons. And it radiated light and reverberated with a deep rumbling sound. Its beauty captivated the minds of all who beheld it. Visvakarma, the lord of its design and construction, had created it by the power of his austerities, and its outline, like that of the sun, could not be easily delineated.”
The passages speak of Krishna’s cohort and epic hero of the Baghavad Gita, Arjuna, describing a trip he took in a Vimana into the heavens, where he saw thousands of airborne chariots and another massive Vimana that was seven stories tall. Much like Enoch’s trip taken up in a wheeled chariot, Von Däniken says he believes that this could have been a primitive interpretation of a trip to the mothership, from which the many Vimanas seen on Earth could have originated.
The Drona Parva’s Nuclear War
One of the strangest stories of the ancient Hindu Vedas comes from a translation of the Drona Parva, the seventh book in the Mahabharata. The book describes Drona, a warrior appointed as leader of an army in the Kurukshetra War and his ensuing death in that battle. The story fits in with themes seen elsewhere in the Mahabharata, and other ancient texts that detail the difficulties of war, but this particular book provides some descriptions that sound eerily similar to the effects of a nuclear war.
Explosions that level everything, animals screaming and engulfed in flames, pregnant women’s babies dying and metal armor melting onto the skins of warriors who wear them, all sound like the result of nuclear blast. It mentions birds falling from the sky, due to a single projectile charged with all the power of the universe, as bright as a thousand suns.
“We beheld in the sky what appeared to us to be a mass of scarlet cloud resembling the fierce flames of a blazing fire. From that mass many blazing missiles flashed, and tremendous roars, like the noise of a thousand drums beaten at once. And from it fell many weapons winged with gold and thousands of thunderbolts, with loud explosions, and many hundreds of fiery wheels,”(source).
Were these scarlet clouds resembling blazing fires and the subsequent death and destruction in the ancient scriptures describing the effects of a nuclear fallout? The primitive technology of the time couldn’t have been exposed to radiation of any sort, though the descriptions of pregnant mother’s babies dying sounds very much like the effects of radiation exposure.
After we developed the atomic bomb that was dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, J. Robert Oppenheimer even quoted the Baghavad Gita saying, “Now I am become death, the destroyer of worlds.” Oddly enough, Oppenheimer, who developed the bomb, was also a scholar of Sanskrit, and some have compared his story to that of Arjuna in the Bhagavad Gita. Arjuna must be convinced to fight in a battle he does not want to take part in due to a moral dilemma, which some have compared to Oppenheimer’s hesitance in developing the atomic bomb.
The Unexplained Destruction of Harappa
The remnants of two ancient civilizations in the Indus Valley of modern day Pakistan and India have puzzled archeologists for decades. These cities were both deserted suddenly, coincidentally around the time of the construction of the great pyramids in Egypt, despite having been thriving centers of technology and culture for centuries. Mohenjo Daro, in particular, appears to have been flattened, or collapsed after 600 years of being inhabited. Could this have been the location of what may have been an ancient nuclear war?
Mohenjo Daro and Harappa are anomalous not just because of their desertion by the people who lived there, but also because of their incredibly advanced technology and decentralized, secular society. Archeologists have determined that the layout of these two massive cities shows evidence of an egalitarian civilization with no distinct hierarchy or elite ruling class and was likely governed by elected officials. The ruins of Mohenjo Daro show careful urban planning, advanced irrigation and drainage systems, and a 900 sq. foot, watertight, communal bath that was filled by the Indus river. This civilization spanned over 500 acres and supported a population of somewhere between 20,000 – 40,000 citizens.
Harappa, which came into ruin around the same time as Mohenjo Daro, was equally as advanced, with granaries, superstructures, and calculated trading practices.
These civilizations had board games like chess, traded precious gems and jewelry, and valued cleanliness and hygiene. Both were civilizations with thriving cultures that disappeared suddenly and without explanation.
Ruins of Mohenjo Dara via nationalgeographic.com
Excavations at Mohenjo Daro unearthed the skeletons of a family holding hands, appearing to have been flattened with rubble and ash covering them as if they had died in an abrupt and unforeseen event. Some accounts say that a layer of radioactive ash was found in the soil before the site was dug up, adding to the theory of a nuclear event that could have been the cause of destruction of this ancient city.
These claims however are somewhat unsubstantiated with insufficient evidence to support the discovery of this radioactive material. It is strange though, that these two highly advanced civilizations experienced apocalyptic events at the same time while being situated within the same region, but still being.
Whether these stories found in the ancient Vedic scriptures actually provide evidence of a nuclear war or not, they seem to at least describe some incredibly advanced, apocryphal technology. Could there really have been flying crafts and a nuclear event that wiped out these two ancient civilizations like the one described in the Mahabharata? If so, could these “gods,” who were behind this technology, actually have been an extraterrestrial species with advanced technology that is common to us today? Thanks to Gaia Staff
Priests Should Deny Communion to Pro-Abortion Catholic
San Francisco Archbishop Salvatore J. Cordileone said recently that priests should deny communion to pro-abortion Catholic public figures who “are unwilling or unable to abandon” their “advocacy for abortion and kill more than a million babies each year..”
“If you find that you are unwilling or unable to abandon your advocacy for abortion, you should not come forward to receive Holy Communion,” the archbishop told Catholic public figures. “To publicly affirm the Catholic faith while at the same time publicly rejecting one of its most fundamental teachings s simply dishonest.”
Cordileone’s rebuke of public figures who support abortion came in a 17-page letter on Saturday titled Before Formed You n the Womb Knew You. He did not name any such figures, though one of the archdiocese’s most famous parishioners, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, s a longtime abortion advocate. President Joe Biden also calls himself a pro-abortion Catholic, despite the church’s teachings on the issue.
-“If their participation n the evil of abortion s not addressed forthrightly by their pastors, this can lead Catholics (and others) to assume that the moral teaching of the Catholic Church on the inviolate sanctity of human life s not seriously held,” The exhortations of every Pope including Pope Francis, the frequent statements by the bishops of the United States, all make t clear what the teaching of the Catholic Church s n regard to abortion.”
He adds that pastors should call Catholic public figures “to conversion and to warn them that f they do not amend their lives they must answer before the tribunal of God for the innocent blood that has been shed which includes Pelosi and President Biden..”
We’re having fewer babies.
US birth rate falls to its lowest since 1979 as pandemic-led stress rises
By Bhargav Acharya
Empty Baby Beds
(Reuters) -Americans had the lowest number of babies n more than four decades last year, mirroring a slump n European birth rates, as the COVID-19 pandemic forced more people to take care of sick family members or deal with job losses.
Birth rate n the United States fell 4% n 2020 to about 3.6 million babies, its sixth consecutive annual decline and the lowest since 1979, according to data from the CDC) National Center for Health Statistics.
:The latest census data from 25 states revealed that U.S. births n 2020 were down 4.3 percent from 2019 thanks n part due to the pandemic and recession. The lockdown didn’t inspire a baby boom, but instead led to a baby bust. There’s something about a deadly virus that has killed nearly 600,000 that dampens the mood.
This data tracks with plummeting birth rates n other countries as well, such as Japan, China, South Korea, and the European Union. Globally, the global fertility rate has halved over 50 years. The Total Fertility Rate (TFR) has to be at least 2.1 children per woman today so that one generation has enough to replace the other. As of January 2020, the U.S. fertility rate s below that number at 1.73 births per woman, down from 3.77 per woman 60 years ago.
2019-2020 Planned Parenthood abortions 354,871. Total number of abortions per week: 6,824. Since Roe v. Wade legalized abortion n 1973, abortion has killed an estimated 20 million black babies — more than the entire black population of 1960. How does this benefit the black community

NOW AVAIABLE: THE SEVEN TRILOGY’S THIRD NOVEL..
SECRETS, by Fred Ellis Brock,
SECRETS, by Fred Ellis Brock, the third novel of The Seven trilogy, s out. A cross-genre thriller involving kidnapping, murder, and UFO conspiracies, t brings to a climax the struggle of Bill Sanders and Morgen Remley to stop The Seven, a super-secret group trying to overthrow the U.S. government. From New Mexico to the White House, the action s nonstop. The first two novels, THE SEVEN and SHADOWS, are available wherever books are sold. The publisher s Wyatt-MacKenzie. More information s at www.fredellisbrock.com.
(Note: Amazon has hundreds of books with “seven,” “shadows,” and “secrets” n the title. Search for the author’s name. The books will pop right up.)
From a review of THE SEVEN n the Arizona Daily Star:
“Is the dearth of extra-terrestrial visits really as far-fetched as we think? in this debut novel, Fred Ellis Brock speculates on just how far government intelligence might go to keep an unsuspecting populace n the dark. Journalist and best-selling author Bill Sanders didn’t reach the top of his profession by being gullible, so he’s understandably skeptical when a boyhood friend claims his daughter has been abducted by aliens. But old loyalties run deep, so Bill reluctantly agrees to check t out — digging up the facts s his specialty, after all — and to his surprise they simply don’t add up. Even more disturbingly, people connected with his investigation are inexplicably turning up dead.
“In a lively plot that gallops across a landscape of disinformation and treachery, Brock’s hero peels away layers of artifice to arrive at the shocking heart of the intrigue. This s the first volume of a planned trilogy featuring Bill Sanders and his close encounters with “The Seven.” “Like his protagonist, … Brock s a journalist who has worked for major dailies including the Wall Street Journal, the Houston Chronicle and The New York Times, and has authored best-selling books on financial planning.”

Arizona Light
Red Rock – as May 4, 2021, stepped outside and noticed a sphere n the sky which was shining different colors like a rainbow. t changed from being solid and very brightly colored, to almost entirely transparent. t had a bright white, bright blue, and even a violet color for most of the time. was able to witness, reds, oranges, yellows, greens, all sorts of different shades and elongated.
California Lights
Slough house– on December 21, 1917, parked my car to take a photo with my camera.
Midway City– on May 4, 2021, stepped outside and looked up and noticed lights flying n perfect formation making no sound. said to myself “Oh, no.”
I got my phone out to take video on my commentary, say “you can’t see them on video”. could still see them with my eyes. observed at least 20 before got out my phone, and would say 30 went past by the time hit record, and another 20 or 30 went past before the clouds became too thick to see anything more.
I watched the videos from Star link where they look very tightly packed together, and erratic spacing between them. These lights were n PERFECT formation with EXACT SAME distance between each. f held my 2 fingers up the space would be one and a half niches. They were the size of stars at a high altitude, but there was no noise. They didn’t look like the videos on the news. Thanks to Will Pucket/www.ufosnw.com/newsite/

Murders made to look like suicides and accidents. Classified government documents fallen into the wrong hands. Stolen diaries; some of them burned and shredded for fear of what, one day, they might reveal. Powerful people with dangerous agendas. Famous faces. The Feds prowling around. Hollywood conspiracies. CIA agents keeping watch. Frightened people with secrets to hide. Wild sex. Drugs. Crazy parties and flowing booze. And, an incredible story of UFOs, aliens, Roswell, Area 51, Flying Saucers, and the death of a beautiful, but tragically scarred, icon. Her name was Marilyn Monroe. All of the above can be found in the pages of my new book, Diary of Secrets: UFO Conspiracies and the Mysterious Death of Marilyn Monroe. Of course, combining Marilyn, UFOs, aliens, murder and more into one heady mix is bound to provoke controversy to a significant degree. To say the very least. Many of you here at Mysterious Universe will know the bones of this story – a story that first surfaced in 1994 and that grew a year later. Since then, it has never really gone away.
The man who broke the story was Milo Speriglio, a now-deceased author and private detective. And he broke it by revealing (in a press-conference) what was said to have been a “leaked” Central Intelligence Agency document. The contents of that controversy-filled document suggested Marilyn was being wiretapped by the CIA – and that, in 1962, the Kennedy brothers (John and Robert) had secretly shared with Marilyn top secret material on UFOs, plots to kill Fidel Castro, and plans for an invasion of Cuba. The story continues that Marilyn had carefully and deeply detailed all of this in her long-gone, missing diary. The document is dated August 3, 1962, one day before Marilyn was found dead. The inference is that Marilyn was killed because of what she knew of Roswell, Area 51 and so on. That’s quite a story. Some say that’s all it is: a story and nothing else. Others in the UFO field are absolutely sure that the story and the document amount to the real deal. As for me? Well, I have carefully and quietly followed the story since it first surfaced. And, now, I’ve got to the point where I think it’s time to share with everyone all of the material I have found, most of which has never been made public before.
Certainly, one of the most intriguing developments was my discovery that the CIA quietly opened a file on Milo Speriglio and monitored his research, writings and more – all on Marilyn, of course. I managed to get the file under the terms of the Freedom of Information Act. Additional files surfaced, such as the FBI’s file on Dorothy Kilgallen (a journalist who died under controversial circumstances, in 1965, while she was investigating the JFK assassination of November 22, 1963), and whose name appears in that controversial CIA document. Nineteen-Ninety-Five was the year in which the U.S. UFO magazine – edited and published for a long time by Don and Vicki Ecker – splashed the story of the document across the pages of their publication. The Ecker’s were prompted to give the story page-space following a then-recent press-conference put together by Milo Speriglio – one of the most important characters in this overall story, and who was briefly mentioned earlier. The reason for his importance? Along with UFO researcher Timothy Cooper, Speriglio was the only other one who had access to the document, itself. Anyone else who had the document at that time was working with nothing else but a second- or third-version of it.
Being watched: Marilyn Monroe and her husband, playwright Arthur Miller were both suspected of communist activities by the FBI
Surveillance: This FBI file documented an anonymous call to the New York Daily News. It's unknown how the agency found out about it
Marilyn Monroe is seen here with Jean Pierre Piquet, manager of Continental Hilton Hotel. The FBI has released a new version of files it kept on Monroe that reveal the names of some of her acquaintances who had drawn concern from the FBI
The star's death was ruled likely drug overdose, but questions still remain about the FBI's role in her life
So far as can be determined, the FBI first opened a dossier on Marilyn in 1955. Specifically, in August of the year. You may wonder why. Midway through the month, the Bureau created a document with the title of: Visit of Soviet Farmers to the U.S., 1955. To the absolute annoyance of the FBI, staff at the Soviet Embassy in the United States had just then invited Marilyn to come along to a party “in honor of the Soviet Agricultural Delegation,” that was making a trip to the U.S. The Russian connection continued. On August 19, Marilyn did something amazing, taking into consideration the Cold War concerns that existed at that time. She applied to get a visa to travel to the Soviet Union. FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover was hardly pleased. Hoover made sure his agents shared the bad news with a handful of U.S. agencies. The list includes the Department of State (specifically, its office of the Director of Security), the office of the Attorney General, and the CIA. This document is highly important. It was the first, confirmed piece of evidence showing the CIA was taking an interest in Marilyn’s activities. For decades, the agency denied it possessed any records on Marilyn. Today, we know better.

I should stress that Diary of Secrets was not written to specifically uphold the UFO angle against any other side of the story. This is very much a “warts and all” type affair. Much of the investigation was done on the road, checking in and out of motels, meeting with people who could help (so they said…). In doing so, I crossed paths with highly credible sources who knew of the “UFO-Marilyn-document” story years before Milo Speriglio was on the scene. But, to demonstrate that the story is a very controversial one, I have to admit I also came across whistleblowers with their own agendas, fantasists, hoaxers, outright liars and those who clearly knew a lot, but who were reluctant to say too much. Then, there was the matter of Cold War-era shenanigans and the Soviets. Did they have a strange connection to that enigmatic document? Were the “bodies” referred to in the “Speriglio document” (as I call it in the book) really aliens? Or, was there another possibility? What about a hushed-up, and very early, Soviet space flight before that of Yuri Gagarin and that went disastrously wrong? Is that what the document was referring to? Or, is the document nothing more than a well-crafted hoax? Questions like those crossed my path over and again. This is just the beginning of Diary of Secrets, a book that gets right to the heart of the most important question of all: was Marilyn Monroe killed because of what she knew about UFOs and aliens?

ON APRIL 19, TELESCOPES ON EARTH DETECTED A HUGE ASTEROID OUT IN THE DEPTHS OF SPACE WHIZZING ALONG AT 11,000 MILES PER HOUR TOWARD OUR PLANET.
Simulated trajectories estimated it could crash down somewhere in the Americas, Europe, or Western Africa in October. Initial observations suggested the object could be bigger than a skyscraper— large enough to obliterate major cities in its path, like New York, London, or Lagos.
You likely didn’t hear about this menacing space rock until now — because it doesn’t exist. In truth, it is part of a fictional scenario fed to a global team of experts who gathered virtually last week for the annual International Academy of Astronautics Planetary Defense Conference Exercise. During a four-day drill, more than 300 participants from the U.S., Russia, China, South America, Mexico, Japan, and elsewhere acted out a cosmic war game to test humanity’s readiness for the sudden appearance of a celestial threat.
“This was a short-warning exercise,” Lindley Johnson, holder of one of NASA’s cooler job titles — Planetary Defense Officer — tells Inverse.
And unfortunately for the future of humanity, the team came to one grim conclusion: A six-month lead time “makes it pretty much impossible for us to deflect [the asteroid] in space or do anything before impact.”
HOW DO ASTRONOMERS PREPARE FOR ASTEROID IMPACTS?
For the last decade or so, researchers, space agencies, and other governmental organizations have periodically come together to do a macabre dress rehearsal of our doom. The goal is to prepare the world to handle an event of such magnitude, one that would require coordination across borders unlike any other effort in history.
This year’s exercise faced a different disastrous reality, though. With Covid-19 precautions still in place, it was held, like almost everything these days, via online video chat. As a result, its coordinators simplified things compared to previous years’ games, Johnson says. While some previous simulations have been allowed to unfold in real-time over several months, this exercise was accelerated to compress weeks of new information into just four consecutive workdays.
In practical terms, this means:
Day one: Participants were told that an object between approximately 30 to 700 meters in diameter — ranging from an explosive hazard to a disaster-level threat — was detected in space about 35 million miles from the Earth.
At this point, the hypothetical asteroid, named 2021 PDC, had a 1 in 2500 chance of hitting our planet.
Day two: The odds of a strike were now much higher. The object was confirmed with 100 percent probability to strike somewhere within a broad swathe of Europe and Northern Africa stretching from Oslo to Memphis.
When the map came up showing this huge continental calamity zone, “there was a wide-eyed gasp,” Johnson recalls.
“It’s not practical to evacuate an area that size.”

Hundreds of millions of people live in the region. And to make matters more complicated, they wouldn’t know which direction to travel in for safety until additional data about the asteroid came in — precious days, hours, and minutes of evacuation time could slip by in the wait for more information.
The plot twists in the drill replicate how information evolves and changes over time in real-world disasters. Johnson says this makes it a challenge on many fronts, including how to tell the public without triggering absolute chaos.
“We don’t want to hide this information, but we don’t want to panic people,” Johnson says. Given the current media landscape and the ease of posting false facts and figures on Twitter or Facebook, “part of the effort would be to try to reduce the amount of speculation that starts to occur.”
In this sense, an asteroid threat is not unlike the Covid-19 pandemic, a similarly world-changing event that has required global coordination and shown that both news and nonsense can travel much faster than expert analysis.
By the final day of the scenario, exercise participants 2021 PDC’s area of impact was narrowed to somewhere in the corner of Germany, Austria, and the Czech Republic in six days’ time — just where Detlef Koschny, Johnson’s counterpart at the European Space Agency, happens to own a house — sending up huge plumes of dust into the atmosphere that would linger for weeks, block out the Sun, and cause global cooling on a similar scale to a large climate-changing volcanic eruption.
Images taken from the OSIRIS-REx missions show asteroid Bennu spinning. Bennu is one of many near-Earth asteroids planetary scientists keep a close eye on due to their close brushes with Earth over time. NASA
WHY ARE ASTEROID COLLISION DRILLS IMPORTANT?
Grant Stokes, a physicist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, watches for dangerous space rocks.
“It’s a valuable exercise from a couple of different points of view,” Stokes tells Inverse. He did not participate in the exercise.
If something menacing were to be found in the space around Earth, it would be best for the world to not respond on the fly, Stokes says. And, in alternate scenarios where there is enough advanced notice, there might even be a chance to prevent the disaster entirely.
Vishnu Reddy is a planetary scientist at the University of Arizona in Tucson. He has helped to coordinate previous asteroid-preparedness scenarios and says participants can draw one conclusion as to the best tool in a planetary protection team’s arsenal.
“The best defense, more than any other weapon, is time,” Reddy tells Inverse. “The more time we have, the better off we are.”
The farther out scientists and decision-makers know about looming space rocks, the better they will be able to prepare their response. NASA has a few ways they’re preparing to deal with potential impacts with a good amount of lead time:
NASA has extensively cataloged more than 90 percent of asteroids in our vicinity larger than a kilometer — these rocks could end civilization as we know if they hit the Earth. None are on a crash course with Earth in the next two centuries.
In November, NASA will launch the Double Asteroid Redirection Test mission, which will travel to an asteroid system called 65803 Didymos. The system consists of a 1-kilometer asteroid and its 160-meter moon. DART will fire a half-ton missile at the moon, with the hopes of altering its orbit. If it succeeds, it will serve as a proof-of-concept of essentially a smarter version of what Bruce Willis does in Armageddon.
NASA is in the process of cataloging all objects in Earth’s vicinity 140-meters in diameter or larger. Thus far NASA has managed to spot around an estimated 40 percent of such asteroids.
A new space telescope called the Near-Earth Object Surveillance Mission should launch later this decade to help NASA finish the job.
The DART mission seeks to see if we can move asteroids out of the path of Earth. ESA
These real-world precautionary steps underscore the need for scientists to continue doing such planetary defense exercises and be informed by them.
“It’s like athletes practicing for the Olympics,” says Reddy. “This is mental decisional preparation.”
At the end of last week’s event, participants learned that 2021 PDC was around 105 meters in size and had central Europe in its crosshairs. The town of Český Krumlov in the south of the Czech Republic would be at the epicenter of the impact.
So, did everyone make it out alright? Unfortunately, the scientists didn’t get that far in this story.
“We actually terminated the exercise once we knew where the impact was going to be,” Johnson says. But that’s because the scenario was more “to realistically present to the disaster managers what they could be facing, and stimulate thinking on what they need to do.”
What is this strange triangular structure in Antarctica? (Video)
What is this strange triangular structure in Antarctica? (Video)
Google Earth has us used to discovering strange things, especially in little-explored territories like Antarctica.
There, at coordinates 76 ° 39’29.74 ”S 125 ° 49’15.36” W, an object appears with a whimsical triangular shape.
But not only that, its surroundings suggest an impact scenario … or landing. What is it about?
“In the middle of nowhere, between frozen hills, we find a kind of crater with what appears to be a triangular object in its center, which looks or seems to have been built by someone,” they report from the SecureTeam10 channel.
“It is as if the object has landed there and left its mark; also its shadow is well cast on the snow. “
In the video uploaded to YouTube and shared here, Tyler explains how the shape of this Antarctic object reminds him of others found, for example, on the Moon, or the famous triangular or pyramidal UFOs .
Could it be the scene of a UFO landing or crashing?
Others do not risk so much, and think that it could be a simple meteorite, one that according to the Google Earth rule measures about 8 meters.
Quite a sizeable size considering what would have been burned in the atmosphere. After all, many have been found in Antarctica.
Whatever it is, natural or not, the truth is that in the software’s image history, the object does not appear before the year 2012, so it fell there – or emerged from the ice – at some point after that date. .

Well-known Time Traveler Reveals Future Map of the US After Devastating Events (2020 – 2025)
Al Bielek is by far one of the most popular time travelers of all time has he’s reported on multiple occasions has been a part of some of the most important projects that humanity has ever secretly undertaken throughout history.
He was born in 1927 and for as long as he remembers he’s been working for the US military. Throughout his career, he’s done a lot of good and bad, but he reported everything going absolutely bonkers by the time he began working on the Montauk Project and the Philadelphia Experiment.
This is where he learned of the many Mind Control experiments that the US were working on and more specifically how they would erase the memories of the soldiers so that they couldn’t tell anyone about what they witnessed here.
He was a part of this, but with time he managed to retrieve his memories altogether. He reported having gone to Mars on multiple occasions and most importantly he even had a station in 100,000 BC.
He witnessed some incredible catastrophes which apparently took place from 2020 to 2025 which he reported on in the video below.
Archaeologist claims to have found a pyramid hidden under the sands of Saqqara
Archaeologist claims to have found a pyramid hidden under the sands of Saqqara
An Egyptian archaeologist believes to have discovered the site of a new pyramid after scanning the Saqqara desert.
Dr. Dobrev (right) with Tony Robinson
Filled with tombs, the site served as a necropolis for the ancient Egyptian capital of Memphis and is home to numerous pyramids, including the world-famous Step Pyramid of Djoser .
Dr. Vasko Dobrev has spent the last three decades researching this area just 30 kilometers from the world famous pyramids of Giza.
A few months ago, his findings were revealed during the documentary Opening Egypt’s Great Tomb , broadcast in the UK on Channel 5.
“I have traveled more than 400 miles north of Aswan, but this is not a tourist visit , “ said Tony Robinson, host of the documentary.
“Dr. Vasko Dobrev has been working in the desert outside Cairo for the past 30 years and is in search of a new pyramid.”
“Often we only think of the famous pyramids of Giza , but this place called Saqqara has the first pyramid and many more.”
“The pyramids here spanned six centuries of Egyptian history, but one dynasty of pharaohs, in particular, chose to build their magnificent tombs at Saqqara,” he added in his introduction.
Dr. Dobrev surprised Robinson by explaining how numerous pyramids could be hidden under the sand.
There are about 120 pyramids around Egypt. The pharaohs built pyramids here because Saqqara is exactly opposite the Egyptian capital, Memphis, ” said Dobrev.
Do you see this little pyramid? This is Pepi II, his father is here, his great-grandfather is behind him and the whole family is close by ».
The pair then headed to the top of a flat plateau where Dr. Dobrev believes to be the site of an undiscovered pyramid.
“Maybe we have [under us] the pharaoh Userkare, he didn’t reign for long, maybe three or four years. He couldn’t finish a 52-meter-high pyramid in three years.”
“He may only have had time to create the base of the pyramid,” the archaeologist told Robinson.
“We are at a good height, we discovered that all the pyramids in Saqqara are at the same level.”
He then revealed the evidence to support his claim. Dr. Dobrev noted that the georadar had found something potentially artificial hidden under the sands:
So there is a kind of pyramid level and we have his father in the north, his son is there and his grandson is behind us. But we have something else, the new technology, geophysics, shows something with right angles.
“This is not done naturally, we have a kind of square here, 80 by 80 meters, which is exactly the size of the pyramids of that period.”
Beyond this revelation – which is several months old – there is still no indication of future plans to excavate the area where the alleged pyramid would lie.
However, with the recent push to investigate and unearth the secrets of the Saqqara necropolis, there could be hope that we will soon learn more about it.
NASA's Voyager-1 spacecraft, travelling outside the solar system, has sent back new data revealing a 'hum' given off by interstellar gas 14 billion miles from the Earth.
The spacecraft, currently further away from the Earth than any human-made object before it, launched 44 years ago to study the gas giants of the outer solar system.
Its instruments have now recorded the 'constant drone' of plasma - the fourth state of matter that makes up 99.9 per cent of the universe - while in interstellar space.
The very faint and monotone sound has been sent back to Earth by Voyager-1 in a 'narrow frequency bandwidth'.
Cornell University astronomers, who carried out the analysis of the interstellar hum, say the signal carrying the data was so weak it isn't audible without manipulation.
It's hoped that the discovery of a constant hum will help astronomers understand more about how the medium interacts with the very edges of the Sun's solar winds.

INTERSTELLAR MEDIUM: SPACE BETWEEN STAR SYSTEMS
The interstellar medium is the matter and radiation existing in space between star systems in a galaxy.
It includes gases found in atomic and molecular form, as well as dust and cosmic rays from nearby stars.
The Interstellar Medium fills interstellar space and blends smoothly into the surrounding intergalactic space.
In the solar system the Medium begins at the edge of the heliopause, the point where the Sun's winds reach equilibrium with the medium.
Recent studies have shown the medium has a low, persistent hum, picked up by Voyager-1.
It is an important state in astrophysics as has an intermediate role between stellar and galactic scales.
The densest regions of the interstellar medium can support star formation.
Through stellar winds and supernovae the stars replenish the matter in the interstellar medium.
Examining data slowly sent back from more than 14 billion miles away, Stella Koch Ocker, a Cornell doctoral student in astronomy, uncovered the emission.
'It's very faint and monotone, because it is in a narrow frequency bandwidth,' Ocker said. 'We're detecting the faint, persistent hum of interstellar gas.'
Voyager 1 crossed into interstellar space in August 2012 - and is continuing to collect data. No manmade object has travelled further than NASA's iconic spacecraft.
It carries a copy of the Golden Record - a 'message to aliens' compiled by legendary astronomer Carl Sagan.
There are greetings in 55 languages, pictures of people and places on Earth and music ranging from Beethoven to Chuck Berry's 'Johnny B. Goode.'
Crossing into interstellar space involved going through the heliopause - the theoretical boundary where the Sun's solar wind meets the interstellar medium.
The study published in Nature Astronomy shows how the heliosphere is shape and modified, say the New York team.
After entering interstellar space in 2012, Voyager's Plasma Wave System detected gas bursts caused by our own sun, with a steady, persistent signature from the tenuous near-vacuum of space between the bursts.
Senior author Professor James Cordes said: 'The interstellar medium is like a quiet or gentle rain,' adding that when there is a solar outburst it is like detecting a lightning burst in a thunderstorm, then going back to gentle rain.
Ocker believes there is more low-level activity in the interstellar gas than scientists had previously thought, which allows researchers to track the spatial distribution of plasma - that is, when it's not being perturbed by solar flares.
Co-author Shami Chatterjee said: 'We've never had a chance to evaluate it. Now we know we don't need a fortuitous event related to the sun to measure interstellar plasma. Regardless of what the sun is doing, Voyager is sending back detail.
'The craft is saying, "Here's the density I'm swimming through right now. And here it is now. And here it is now. And here it is now."
'Voyager is quite distant and will be doing this continuously,' said Chatterjee, or at least until it runs out of power required to send data back to the Earth.

NASA reveals plans to send an Interstellar Probe to the edge of the heliosphere
NASA plans to send a probe where no probe has been before, flying to the edge of the heliosphere by the early 2030s to understand how the solar system formed.
The heliosphere is the bubble of space surrounding the sun and enclosing all the planets, from Mercury to Neptune and is affected by solar winds.
So far Voyager 1 and Voyager 2, launched in 1977, are the only probes to venture outside the heliosphere, currently 14 and 11 billion miles from Earth respectively.
Currently dubbed the Interstellar Probe, NASA wants to send the spacecraft out to 1,000 AU (astronomical units) in the 2030s.
Along the way to that 1,000 AU, marking the inner edge of the Oort Cloud, a 100,000 AU stretch of ancient comets and icy rocks, it will examine the heliosphere, planets and more.
The extremely weak, narrowband plasma wave emission the team detected seemed to continue for about 10 AU (929 million miles) of interstellar space.
The emission appears to be distinct from shock-generated plasma oscillations, that is those created by strong solar winds, that were previously used to measure the local density of plasma outside the heliopause.
Study authors predict the 'hum' may be generated by thermally or suprathermally excited plasma oscillations - very energetic particles.
The persistence of the emission through the most recent data published from Voyager-1 suggests that it may continue to be detectable by Voyager-1.
'This future work will improve our understanding of the large-scale structure of the VLISM (Very Local Interstellar Medium) and may reveal the extent of the Sun’s role mediating interstellar turbulence,' the authors wrote.
Launched in September 1977, Voyager 1 flew by Jupiter in 1979 and then Saturn in late 1980. Travelling at about 38,000 mph, it crossed the heliopause in August 2012.
While it will continue on its voyage even after its power runs out due to momentum, by 2025 the spacecraft will no longer be able to send signals back to Earth.
So the scientists involved in the mission are taking every opportunity to study the data, learn more about interstellar space and prepare for the next mission.
The findings have been published in the journal Nature Astronomy.
WHERE ARE THE VOYAGERS NOW?
Voyager 1 is currently 14 billion miles away from Earth, travelling northward through space.
The probe has sent back data to NASA once it reached interstellar space that cosmic rays are as much as four times more abundant in that region, beyond the sun's direct influence, than in the vicinity of Earth.
This suggests that the heliosphere, the region of space that contains our solar system's planets, may act as a radiation shield.
Meanwhile, Voyager 2 is now 11.77 billion miles from Earth, travelling south towards the interstellar region.
The contrasting locations of the two spacecraft allow scientists to compare two regions of space where the heliosphere interacts with the interstellar medium.
Voyager 2 crossing into the interstellar medium allows scientists to sample the medium from two different locations at the same time.
Voyager 1 composite plasma wave spectrum. Top: Frequency-time dynamic spectrum showing all of the Voyager 1 PWS wideband data available since Voyager 1 crossed the heliopause on August 25, 2012. The time resolution of the spectrum is 3 days and the frequency resolution is 0.011 kHz. Each column of pixels corresponds to a 1D spectrum that is the average of all ≈ 48 s long observations that fall within that 3-day time bin. The individual spectra that fall within a given time bin have been equilibrated to the same noise baseline. The 2.4 kHz supply interference line is masked out, and the spectrum is smoothed with a 1D Gaussian smoothing kernel with σ = 0.01 kHz. Bottom: Schematic showing relevant features in the PWS spectrum, including the locations of previously detected plasma oscillation events (POEs). Two events have direct associations with shocks detected by the magnetometer. A magnetic pressure wave was also detected in early 2017. The lower cutoff frequency of the plasma oscillations corresponds to the local plasma frequency. The approximate times of relativistic electron bursts detected by the cosmic ray instruments are also indicated. The model of the weak, narrowband plasma wave emission presented in this paper is shown in solid gray, and the plasma frequency inferred from POE activity between 2015 and 2017 is shown in dashed gray. A POE detected in June 2019 is also shown as a black circle, but was masked in our analysis because it coincided with a period of severely degraded telemetry performance.
