Alien Face With Huge Horns In Aristarchus Crater, Moon, Photos, UFO Sighting News.
Alien Face With Huge Horns In Aristarchus Crater, Moon, Photos, UFO Sighting News.
Date of discovery: June 3, 2021
Location of discovery: Aristarchus Spectacular, Earths moon
I was searching through some old NASA moon photos when I found something that really caught my interest. A face in the center of the crater. The object is a carved face that closely resembles humans, but its wearing or growing two huge horns from its head. The horns are bent backwards a little bit as if they grew from the being. Also the horns are hollow, indicated from the shadows and openings...since one of the horns is cracked across its middle. The whole face and horns are a structure created to celebrate, commemorate and hold highly the person or species it was created to represent. The structure is hollow and was made to be a shrine or temple of some sort. For its horns to be broken, it must be thousands of years old. I love the bold look of the huge horns...it represents fearlessness, stubbornness and power.
I also found a horse statue not far away. It was laying down on the ground, made of the same white material and its long face, ears, neck back, hind area, and front two folded legs are all easily visible. Horses and horned warriors...almost sounds like vikings. Maybe aliens influenced Vikings here on earth, or perhaps the Vikings influenced the aliens who visited them.

NASA picks Venus as hot spot for two new robotic missions
NASA picks Venus as hot spot for two new robotic missions
by Marcia Dunn

NASA is returning to sizzling Venus, our closest yet perhaps most overlooked neighbor, after decades of exploring other worlds.
The space agency's new administrator, Bill Nelson, announced two new robotic missions to the solar system's hottest planet, during his first major address to employees Wednesday.
"These two sister missions both aim to understand how Venus became an inferno-like world capable of melting lead at the surface," Nelson said.
One mission named DaVinci Plus will analyze the thick, cloudy Venusian atmosphere in an attempt to determine whether the inferno planet ever had an ocean and was possibly habitable. A small craft will plunge through the atmosphere to measure the gases.
It will be the first U.S.-led mission to the Venusian atmosphere since 1978.
The other mission, called Veritas, will seek a geologic history by mapping the rocky planet's surface.
"It is astounding how little we know about Venus," but the new missions will give fresh views of the planet's atmosphere, made up mostly of carbon dioxide, down to the core, NASA scientist Tom Wagner said in a statement. "It will be as if we have rediscovered the planet."
NASA's top science official, Thomas Zurbuchen, calls it "a new decade of Venus." Each mission—launching sometime around 2028 to 2030—will receive $500 million for development under NASA's Discovery program.
The missions beat out two other proposed projects, to Jupiter's moon Io and Neptune's icy moon Triton.
The U.S. and the former Soviet Union sent multiple spacecraft to Venus in the early days of space exploration. NASA's Mariner 2 performed the first successful flyby in 1962, and the Soviets' Venera 7 made the first successful landing in 1970.
In 1989, NASA used a space shuttle to send its Magellan spacecraft into orbit around Venus.
The European Space Agency put a spacecraft around Venus in 2006.
4,000-year-old alien craft found in the Grand Canyon?
4,000-year-old alien craft found in the Grand Canyon?
The Grand Canyon, that lonely and strange arid region, still holds many archaeological mysteries. The latest research has revealed the possible existence of a 4,000-year-old Alien Ship.
Aerial view of the Grand Canyon.
One of the rangers in charge of guarding the Grand Canyon , came across a strange structure. Experts assured that this material belongs to an Alien Ship .
This is one more proof that adds to a long list of evidences that shows that, in the past, our planet was visited by beings from other worlds .
Alien Ship in the Grand Canyon?
Buried under the arid lands of the Grand Canyon, a gigantic carcass of a metal unknown to scientists was found.
The dimensions of this structure encompassed the entire fund in which it was found. Or that was what a group of researchers who followed up on the finding declared , who preferred to remain anonymous .
Carbon analysis that was carried out on the metal, showed that the object could have a date of the year 2000 a. C. Thus, the strange structure would have a total of 4,000 years old.
According to some specialists, the team in charge of investigating the discovery is a military faction that secretly works everything related to UFOs .
The deduction that certain ufologists arrived at about the structure is that it is an alien ship, which had a spectacular accident 4 millennia ago.
The metallic substance with which the ship was made is totally unknown . A slight radiation is emitted from the shell . In addition, according to the leaked information, the huge carcass was removed and immediately guarded.
California-based astronomer Henry Leaumont told the Weekly World News website after being shown confidential files from the US Air Force on the case.
Leaumont said that his contacts told him that the structure was definitely not of terrestrial origin . It was an alien ship that housed between 12 to 20 passengers .
The cave painting in the area could reveal that the crew of the alien ship inhabited the surroundings.
“Aliens 4,000 years ago on Earth”
The characteristics of the cockpit suggest that the crew members had a human- like physiognomy , albeit much smaller. They were apparently breathing oxygen and guiding the ship through a magnetic steering system. They also had cupboards that stored food and water supplies.
The ship suffered several damage when it collided with the limestone of the floor of the Grand Canyon, near a place known as Comanche Poiint.
A detailed inspection of the landing zone showed that the beings that manned the alien ship left the place. Thus leaving the abandoned ship, inhabiting the vicinity for some years.
«This impression is confirmed by Indian cave paintings made at the time. Paintings found near the crash site show strange humanoid creatures with bulbous heads.
Experts believe that these creatures were the beings that arrived on the ancient alien ship. The ship is made of an extremely light metallic fiber.
Relative to the alien ship, it is about 15 meters wide and 31 meters long . It could be considered the most important find in relation to UFOs in history, reason enough for the US government to hide it.
This is not the first evidence that the governmental elite of the planet hide. According to experts, it is through it that they technologically update their military vehicles. Who knows what this alien ship could bring you.

Dr. Steven Greer: Cosmic Consciousness and Contact with E.T. Civilization
2021 NEW Conscious Life Expo… MUST WATCH!!! A very rare video appearance from Dr. Steven Greer discussing how to make contact with ET civilizations. Human Initiated contact: – CE5. How to do it. Why it is important. And how to form your own groups. People from Thailand to Nova Scotia to Russia are doing CE5 with amazing experiences. Father of the Disclosure movement, he presided over the groundbreaking National Press Club Disclosure Event in May, 2001. Over 20 military, government, intelligence and corporate witnesses presented compelling testimony regarding the existence of extraterrestrial life forms visiting the planet, and the reverse engineering of the energy and propulsion systems of these craft. Over one billion people heard of the press conference through the original webcast and on subsequent media coverage on BBC, CNN, CNN Worldwide, Voice of America, Pravda, Chinese media, and media outlets throughout Latin America.
The webcast had 250,000 people waiting online – the largest webcast in the history of the National Press Club at that time. He has worked for 17 years to bring together the scientists, inventors and leaders in society to advance new clean technology energy systems. He is considered one of the world’s foremost authorities on the strategic process of transforming our carbon-based civilization to a long-term sustainable civilization using innovative sciences and technology. A lifetime member of Alpha Omega Alpha, the nation’s most prestigious medical honor society, Dr. Greer has now retired as an emergency physician to work on these projects. He is the author of four insightful books and multiple DVDs on the UFO/ET subject.
He teaches groups throughout the world how to make peaceful contact with extraterrestrial civilizations, and continues to research bringing truly alternative energy sources out to the public. Dr. Greer has studied the Sanskrit Vedas extensively and has been teaching mantra meditation for over 30 years. Dr. Greer has been seen and heard by millions world-wide on CBS, the BBC, The Discovery Channel, the History channel, The Ancient Aliens series, Thrive and through many news outlets worldwide.— His message is one of hope – that these energy systems can soon be available worldwide. His goal is to assist in the creation of a sustainable, peaceful civilization on Earth that is both high tech and in harmony with the environment.

11 BOEIENDE WEETJES OVER SUPERREUZEN EN HYPERREUZEN
11 BOEIENDE WEETJES OVER SUPERREUZEN EN HYPERREUZEN
Tim Kraaijvanger
Superreuzen en hyperreuzen zijn de allerzwaarste sterren in het heelal. Wist je dat hyperreuzen net ‘dikke BMW’s’ zijn en hun brandstof in korte tijd opstoken? En dat de grootste hyperreus verder reikt dan de baan van Saturnus? 11 boeiende weetjes over de grootste sterren in het universum.
Deze week overleed astronoom Kees de Jager op 100-jarige leeftijd. Hij werd ook wel de ‘superreus’ onder de astronomen genoemd, omdat De Jager veel betekende voor het onderzoek naar super- en hyperreuzen. In 2017 verscheen een artikel van Kees de Jager over deze bijzondere sterren. “Het is bijna niet voor te stellen: sterren die één miljoen keer helderder zijn dan de zon,” schrijft De Jager. “Maar ze bestaan echt!” Ter nagedachtenis aan De Jager staat Scientias.nl dit weekend in het teken van deze bijzondere sterren.
Wat zijn superreuzen en hyperreuzen? Superreuzen en hyperreuzen zijn de allerzwaarste en allergrootste sterren in het heelal. Het zijn reuzen in vergelijking met onze zon, die een vrij gemiddelde dwergster is. “Hun eigenschappen laten zich alleen in superlatieven beschrijven,” vertelt De Jager in zijn artikel. “Zij werpen een heel eigen licht op de evolutie van de allerzwaarste sterren.”
Enkele reuzensterren op een rij. Van links naar rechts: Cygnus OB2 #12, V382 Carinae, V915 Scorpii, UY Scuti en Stephenson 2-18. Ter vergelijking: de oranje lijn is de baan van Saturnus, de blauwe lijn is de baan van Neptunus.
#1 De grootste hyperreus is Stephenson 2-18
Stephenson 2-18 is 2.150 keer breder dan de zon, wat betekent dat de zon bijna 10 miljard keer in de superreus past. Stel, we plaatsen Stephenson 2-18 in het centrum van het zonnestelsel, dan zou zijn fotosfeer – de diepste laag van de atmosfeer van een ster – verder dan de baan van Saturnus reiken. Stephenson 2-18 maakt onderdeel uit van de Melkweg, maar is 18.900 lichtjaar van de aarde verwijderd en bevindt zich in een cluster met 25 andere superreuzen. De tweede grootste ster is LGGS J004539.99+415404.1 in het Andromedastelsel. Deze ster is 1.980 tot 2.377 keer breder dan de zon. Op de voorlopig derde plaats staat MSX LMC 597 in de Grote Magelhaense Wolk, een satellietstelsel van onze Melkweg. MSX LMC 597 is 1.882 tot 1.953 keer breder dan de zon.
Stephenson 2-18 is hier in het midden te zien.

#2 De allereerste sterren in het heelal waren hyperreuzen
Kort na de oerknal was het universum nog donker en warm, maar langzaam koelde het uitdijende heelal af en werden de eerste sterren geboren. In het begin waren er alleen nog hele simpele elementen, zoals waterstof, helium en een beetje lithium. Uit observaties van CR7 (een jong sterrenstelsel in het vroege universum) blijkt dat in wolken zonder zware metalen grote sterren ontstonden die honderden of zelfs duizend keer zwaarder waren dan de zon. Deze populatie-III-sterren leefden heel kort – mogelijk enkele honderdduizenden jaren – maar zijn wel belangrijk geweest voor de ‘evolutie’ van het universum. Deze sterren zetten lichte elementen in korte tijd om in zwaardere elementen, zoals zuurstof, stikstof, koolstof en ijzer. Zonder deze elementen waren wij er niet geweest, want ze zijn heel belangrijk voor het ontstaan van leven.

#3 De bekendste superreus is… Betelgeuze
Betelgeuze is 764 keer breder dan de zon. Stel, we plaatsen Betelgeuze in het centrum van het zonnestelsel, dan zou zelfs Mars opgeslokt worden door de rode superreus. Betelgeuse is de helderste rode superreus vanaf het aardoppervlak en maakt onderdeel uit van het sterrenbeeld Orion. Je kunt de ster dus vrij eenvoudig zien op een heldere winteravond. Sterker nog: als je naar Betelgeuze kijkt, dan heeft de ster een rode kleur ten opzichte van bijvoorbeeld de ster Rigel in hetzelfde sterrenbeeld. Betelgeuze is opvallend goed zichtbaar, omdat de afstand tussen de zon en Betelgeuze relatief klein is: circa 600 lichtjaar. Deze nabije ster staat op het punt van ontploffen, maar daar hoef je niet wakker van te liggen. De afstand is gelukkig groot genoeg en het kan nog miljoenen jaren duren. Het grote voordeel van een nabije reuzenster is dat Betelgeuze vaak in detail wordt bestudeerd door astronomen. Zo begon de helderheid in oktober 2019 plotseling af te nemen, wat mogelijk kwam door een grote uitbarsting op de ster. Ook maakten astronomen in het verleden een prachtige foto van Betelgeuze, waarop te zien is hoe de reuzenster een enorme gasbel de ruimte in blaast.

#4 Hyperreuzen zijn ‘dikke BMW’s’
Hyperreuzen zijn geen zuinige sterren, waardoor ze ook niet oud worden. Onze zon is 4,6 miljard jaar oud en zal waarschijnlijk nog wel vijf miljard jaar schijnen. Hyperreuzen stoken hun brandstof er in een rap tempo doorheen en leven daardoor erg kort, namelijk slechts een paar miljoen jaar. “Hoe meer massa een ster heeft, des te meer nucleaire brandstof een ster heeft en des te sneller de ster deze brandstof verbrandt”, vertelt professor Steve Eikenberry. Juist omdat hyperreuzen relatief kort leven, zijn ze zeer zeldzaam.
#5 Rode superreuzen zijn koeler dan de zon
Het oppervlak van de zon heeft een temperatuur van 6.000 graden Celsius. Rode superreuzen zijn veel koeler en hebben een oppervlaktetemperatuur van circa 3.000 graden Celsius. Dit betekent dat de sterren koeler zijn dan sommige exoplaneten, zoals exoplaneet Kepler-70b. Een mooi voorbeeld is de ster Betelgeuze in Orion. Deze ster is 100.000 keer zo helder als de zon, maar zijn oppervlaktetemperatuur ligt iets boven de 3000 Kelvin, wat neerkomt op ongeveer 2750 graden Celsius.
In dit Hertzsprung-Russelldiagram zijn de verschillende soorten sterren te zien. Van links naar rechts neemt de temperatuur af. De verticale as laat de absolute helderheid van de sterren zien. Er is sprake van een lijn: van heet en lichtsterk (linksboven) naar koel en minder helder. Dit wordt de hoofdreeks genoemd. De meeste sterren in het heelal zijn zogenoemde ‘dwergsterren’ en maken onderdeel uit van de hoofdreeks. Ook onze zon is een dwergster. De grootste sterren (Ia en Ib) wijken af van de hoofdreeks en zijn veel zeldzamer.
#6 Hyperreuzen veranderen aan het eind van hun leven in hypernova’s
Aan het eind van het leven van een ster is er niet genoeg nucleaire brandstof meer en wordt de kern steeds zwaarder doordat zijn eigen massa richting de kern stroomt. Aangezien een ster geen energie meer produceert, kan het object geen tegendruk geven tegen de enorme druk van de zwaartekracht. Uiteindelijk stort de kern van de ster in elkaar en ontstaat er een supernova. In het geval van hyperreuzen worden er zelfs hypernova’s gevormd. Hypernova’s zijn de zwaarst bekende explosies in het heelal (als we de oerknal niet meerekenen). De kracht van een explosie is honderd keer groter dan die van een supernova. Een hypernova schijnt korte tijd veel feller dan een heel sterrenstelsel vol met miljarden sterren.
Stel, een hypernova zou plaatsvinden binnen een afstand van enkele honderden lichtjaren van de zon, dan zou dit mogelijk leiden tot een massa-extinctie op aarde. Röntgenstraling en gammastraling van de hypernova kunnen stikstof en zuurstof in de atmosfeer ioniseren, waardoor er stikstofoxiden ontstaan en leven op aarde drastisch zou veranderen. Gelukkig hebben we geen hyperreus in de buurt.
#7 Superreus Eta Carinae verloor een zon per jaar
Eta Carinae is een indrukwekkende ster op 7.500 lichtjaar van de aarde. De zon is ongeveer 82 keer zo zwaar als de zon, maar was vroeger waarschijnlijk veel massiever. 200 jaar geleden was deze ster net zo helder als Sirius, maar na 1860 nam de helderheid af. Dit kwam door enkele grote explosies. Bij deze ontploffing kwam evenveel energie vrij als bij een supernova-explosie. Hierbij zijn er twee grote gaswolken ontstaan die inmiddels een grootte hebben van 0,7 lichtjaren. De totale massa van deze gaswolken wordt geschat op twaalf tot dertig zonnen. Dit betekent dat Eta Carinae in ongeveer twintig jaar tijd (van 1840 tot 1860) ongeveer één zonsmassa per jaar verloor. Dat is uitzonderlijk veel voor een ster. Astronomen verwachten dat de ster de komende decennia weer een stuk helderder wordt, omdat een stofnevel om de ster langzaam verdwijnt.

#8 De geboorte van een hyperster is… niet ‘hyper’-bijzonder
Je denkt misschien dat een hyperster op een andere manier ontstaat als een eenvoudige ster als de zon, maar dat is niet zo. Alle sterren ontstaan op dezelfde manier. Wolken van gas en stof trekken langzaam samen. Op een bepaald moment stort een deel van zo’n wolk onder zijn eigen gewicht ineen. De kern wordt heter en de wolk begint sneller te draaien. Op een bepaald moment ontstaat er dan een protoster (oftewel een ster-in-spé). Er vindt nog geen kernfusie plaats, maar de protoster geeft al wel hitte af. Pas later, als de druk en temperatuur in het centrum van de protoster ver toeneemt, zal de kernfusie op gang komen. In 2010 vonden wetenschappers een bijzonder zware babyster (IRAS 13481-6124). Deze babyster is twintig keer zo zwaar en vijf keer zo groot als de zon. Net als andere babysterren is ook IRAS 13481-6124 gehuld in een cocon van stof. “Onze waarnemingen tonen aan dat de vorming voor alle sterren op dezelfde manier verloopt, ongeacht de massa,” concludeert onderzoeksleider Stefan Kraus.

#9 Reuzensterren kunnen plotseling verdwijnen
In het Kinman-dwergstelsel was lange tijd een monsterster te zien, maar in 2019 konden wetenschappers de ster niet meer vinden. “Tot onze verrassing kwamen we erachter dat de ster verdwenen was,” zegt onderzoeker Andrew Allan. Het is vreemd dat er geen supernova of hypernova aan vooraf ging. Er zijn twee mogelijke theorieën voor het verdwijnen van de ster. Mogelijk is de lichtsterke blauwe variabele ster door een uitbarsting veranderd in een minder heldere ster, die ook nog eens deels door stof wordt verduisterd. De tweede theorie luidt dat de ster ineengestort is tot een zwart gat, zonder dat daar een supernova-explosie aan voorafging. Dat zou echter wel een ontzettend zeldzame gebeurtenis zijn: voor zover we weten sluiten zware sterren namelijk hun bestaan af met een supernova. “Als dit toch zo is, zou dat de eerste, directe detectie van een monsterster zijn die zijn leven op deze manier afsluit,” aldus Allan.
#10 Rode, gele en blauwe, maar geen groene superreuzen
Reuzensterren zijn er in verschillende smaken. Er zijn rode superreuzen, gele superreuzen en blauwe superreuzen. De kleur van een ster verraadt hoe warm het oppervlak is. De blauwe superreuzen zijn het warmst, gevolgd door gele superreuzen en rode superreuzen. Sterren kunnen veranderen. Zo kan een blauwe superreus in omvang toenemen en uiteindelijk veranderen in een rode superreus. Onze zon is op dit moment een gele dwergster, maar transformeert over miljarden jaren in een rode reus (maar geen rode superreus).
Een bekende blauwe superreus is Rigel op een afstand van circa 800 lichtjaar van de aarde. Deze ster is zeventien keer zwaarder dan de zon, maar geeft 40.000 keer meer licht. De ster geeft zoveel licht, dat ‘nabije’ nevels door Rigel worden verlicht, zoals de Heksenkopnevel op onderstaande foto.
De Heksenkopnevel (IC2118) wordt verlicht door de nabije ster Rigel (rechts).
Kijk je met een eclipsbrilletje naar de zon, dan zie je dat de zon een duidelijke rand heeft. Onze moederster is een mooi rond bolletje. Dit geldt niet voor hyperreuzen. Hyperreuzen en superreuzen verliezen veel massa, waardoor de buitenste randen nogal ijl zijn. Hierdoor hebben hyperreuzen geen duidelijke rand, maar een wazige rand. Dit maakt het ook veel lastiger om de grootte van hyperreuzen en superreuzen te bepalen, want het is niet altijd duidelijk waar gas stopt en het vacuüm begint.
NASA BRENGT SPECTACULAIRE FOTO UIT VAN HET CENTRUM VAN DE MELKWEG
NASA BRENGT SPECTACULAIRE FOTO UIT VAN HET CENTRUM VAN DE MELKWEG
Tim Kraaijvanger
Het centrum van ons Melkwegstelsel is een kosmisch web van heet gas en magnetische velden met in het midden: een supermassief zwart gat.
De Amerikaanse ruimtevaartorganisatie heeft een bijzondere panorama uitgebracht van ons galactische centrum. Het centrum van de Melkweg bevindt zich op 26.000 lichtjaar van de aarde. Het kosmische meesterwerk is gemaakt door data te combineren van de Zuid-Afrikaanse MeerKAT radiotelescoop en NASA’s Chandra-röntgenobservatorium.
Het mozaïek is het resultaat van 370 Chandra-waarnemingen van 1999 tot 2019. In totaal gaat het om 1.555 uur en 26 minuten aan observaties, wat neerkomt op ruim 64 dagen.
Sagittarius A*
Precies in het midden van de foto is Sagittarius A* te zien. Dit is een superzwaar zwart gat in het centrum van ons Melkwegstelsel. Dit zwarte gat is de laatste tijd erg actief en varieert regelmatig in helderheid. Dit komt door het materiaal dat in het zwarte gat valt. “Voordat het materiaal er helemaal in verdwijnt wordt het eerst warm en gaat het stralen,” vertelt astrofysicus Rudy Wijnands aan Scientias.nl. “De hoeveelheid straling die we zien is direct gerelateerd aan de hoeveelheid materiaal dat in het zwarte gat valt. Als het zwarte gat helderder wordt, valt er dus meer materie in het zwarte gat.”
Een draad van superheet gas Op de foto is een opvallend lange draad van superheet gas te zien, namelijk G0.17-0.41. Deze draad is twintig lichtjaar lang, maar slechts 1/100ste lichtjaar breed. Zo’n draad ontstaat door botsende magnetische velden. Als magnetische velden op elkaar botsen, raken ze verstrengeld en ontstaan deze draden van superheet gas. Astronomen vermoeden dat deze botsende magnetische velden het gas tussen de sterren – het zogenoemde interstellaire medium – kunnen verhitten. Door deze turbulentie kunnen uiteindelijk weer nieuwe sterren ontstaan.
Clusters, sterren en röntgenbronnen Nabij het centrum is de Quintuplet-cluster te zien. Dit cluster is slechts vier miljoen jaar oud en bevat veel jonge massieve sterren. In dit cluster bevindt zich de Pistoolster: een van de helderste sterren in de Melkweg. Verder zien we diverse andere clusters, zoals de Arches-clusters, vele sterren (de kleine puntjes) en heldere röntgenbronnen (groene cirkels).

Chandra: bijna net zo legendarisch is als Hubble Het Chandra-röntgenobservatorium zweeft inmiddels al meer dan twintig jaar in de ruimte. In deze periode heeft het observatorium veel bijzondere ontdekkingen gedaan. Zo heeft Chandra een jet van het zwarte gat Sagittarius A* gefotografeerd. Dit is een kosmische fontein van hoog-energetische deeltjes. Chandra fotografeerde de stroom afkomstig uit Sagittarius A. Wat blijkt: de jet botst met gas in de nabije omgeving. Tijdens de botsing wordt röntgenstraling en radiostraling geproduceerd, wat door Chandra waargenomen is.
Ook maakte Chandra al eerder een prachtig mozaïek van het centrum van de Melkweg. De foto hieronder is in werkelijkheid 400 bij 900 lichtjaren groot. Rondom het zwarte gat in het centrum van de Melkweg draaien honderden witte dwergen, neutronensterren en stellaire zwarte gaten.

After a months-long investigation, the Pentagon is poised to produce a report addressing sightings of unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) — more commonly known as "unidentified flying objects," or UFOs.
But don't expect a big reveal about secret alien technology and extraterrestrial spaceships. The aim of the report is to establish standards for recording sightings of mysterious objects and to determine if those objects pose a threat to national security.
In 2020, the U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee called for an inquiry into UAPs in the Intelligence Authorization Act for the Fiscal Year 2021. According to the document, committee members were concerned that "there is no unified, comprehensive process within the Federal Government for collecting and analyzing intelligence on unidentified aerial phenomena, despite the potential threat."
After the bill was enacted on Dec. 21, 2020, the director of national intelligence and the secretary of defense then had 180 days to produce a report for the committee, "submitted in unclassified form," on the current status of UAP sightings and protocols, Live Science previously reported — and that six-month deadline expires this month.
Florida Sen. Marco Rubio served as the Intelligence Committee's acting chair when the act was drafted and enacted, and he ordered the investigation of UAPs because he saw them as a critical national security issue, Rubio told journalist Bill Whitaker on CBS's "60 Minutes" in May.
"Anything that enters an airspace that's not supposed to be there is a threat," Rubio said. "I want us to take it seriously and have a process to take it seriously. I want us to have a process to analyze the data every time it comes in."
In April 2020, the U.S. Navy released three videos of UFO sightings from 2004 and 2015; the clips were nicknamed "FLIR," "GOFAST" and "GIMBAL," and they showed what appeared to be spacecraft traveling at hypersonic speeds with no visible means of propulsion, Live Science reported. (The three videos had previously been posted online in 2017 and 2018 by the UFO research group To the Stars Academy of Arts and Science.)
"There's footage and records of objects in the skies that we don't know exactly what they are — we can't explain how they moved, their trajectory. They did not have an easily explainable pattern," former president Barack Obama said in May, in an appearance on CBS's "The Late Late Show with James Corden."
So, what might be included in the report? Not everything in the document will be publicly available — while the report will be unclassified, it "may include a classified annex," the Intelligence Committee wrote. The committee requested a detailed analysis of UAP data and intelligence, including information gathered by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) about UFOs.
The committee also requested that the report outline a process for sharing information between agencies, to help identify unfamiliar technologies and to detect patterns in UFO appearances that could imply hostile intentions.
"I want us to have a process to analyze the data every time it comes in. That there be a place where this is cataloged and constantly analyzed, until we get some answers," Rubio said.
"Maybe it has a very simple answer. Maybe it doesn't," Rubio told Whitaker. "We're gonna find out when we get that report."
Joshua P. Warren and Mobius provided us with Jason Suraci's intriguing video footage that he captured using Paratemporal night vision equipment.
Mobius shares this account with us:
Jason Suraci had just come back from attending Joshua Warren's Finding Your Magic seminar in Las Vegas. He lives in Colorado near the Space Command Air Force base and nightly sees odd things. Jason sent Joshua Warren and Mobius videos showing that people all over the US had seen tube-like UFOs over the last few days. He was fascinated with one that was seen by the CE5 group: "ECETI Captures a Huge Craft."
Jason sent several other videos seen all over the US. Some were obvious SpaceX and some were much more mysterious. There was also a SpaceX launch that same day adding to the confusion of videos in circulation. Jason wrote both Joshua Warren and Mobius and simply stated he had made up his mind he was going out that night and was going to capture this tube-shaped UFO video footage himself.
A few hours later Jason sent his video and said he got it. Joshua, Mobius, and soon the whole UFO community was doing analysis on the video, looking up satellite tracks, rocket launches, and reviewing all data. The analysis clearly shows stars and other objects dithering through the clouds, but the tube-like UFO simply vanishes and never re-emerges. It is a very strange video and should open up a wide discussion of debate.
This is not the only strange thing Jason has captured. Please subscribe to his YouTube Channel where nightly he sees some amazingly strange sightings that equally have not been explained.
Avi Loeb discusses the presence of extraterrestrial life on 'Fox News Primetime'
The government should be stowing away more money to look into the presence of extraterrestrial life, Harvard University professor and astrophysicist Avi Loeb argued Tuesday on "Fox News Primetime."
Loeb explained that the scientific community often ridicules the idea of alien existence. Meanwhile, he pushed for following supposed evidence such as UFO sightings and other interstellar happenings.
"We should be guided by evidence," he said. "In the context of UFOs, we should get more data on this and make it part of the scientific research program that we have."
Instead of Earth inhabitants welcoming complete transparency on the matter, Loeb suggested people would rather remain in their "comfort zone" of ignorance. The scientist then advocated for the normalcy of inspecting all objects in Earth’s orbit, comparing it to "walking on the beach."
"Most of the time you see rocks or seashells that were naturally produced but every now and then you might see a plastic bottle that tells you there is civilization out there," he said.
Loeb also rallied for the rekindling of the Apollo program and pushed for further exploration of other planets and outer space.
"I do think the future of humanity is in space because currently all of our eggs are in one basket here on Earth," he went on. "And there is a risk that a catastrophe will destroy everything that is precious to us, and we do need to think about spreading our eggs in multiple baskets."

A scientific examination of aspects of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena
As blog readers will be aware, I am continuing to examine the vast amount of information in Jacques Vallee’s latest book “Forbidden Science: Volume Four.” Here, in Vallee’s diaries, I found a series of notes about Dan T. Smith. I will quote Vallee: One of the numerous individuals, who have inhabited the UAP landscape over the years, is one Dan T. Smith.
Dr. Jacques Vallee
(In a diary entry dated 22 January 1993) Vallee was talking with Linda Moulton Howe.
“One of her observations concerns the crop circles. She said the CIA had descended on the English fields since my conversation with Kit on the subject and hinted that Pandolfi may have sent George Wingfield along with Rosemary-Ellen Guiley,Robert Irving and Owen Lewis. ‘They come straight from Langley,’ said Linda. ‘The group also includes Dan T. Smith and a Dr Schnabel.‘ I can’t verify any of it.”
20 June 1993
In conversation with Linda Moulton Howe.
“She gave me another view of Pandolfi: ‘He runs a special project with an interest in crop circles, the paranormal…Rosemary keeps sending faxes to him. She and Dan Smith introduce themselves as ‘working for the CIA’ They ask questions like: How can Christians help in the coming Apocalypse?”
7 January 1994
“The enigmatic Dan T. Smith is setting up meetings all over the Bay Area, again claiming direction from Pandolfi. He dangles money and rumors, arranging luncheons with people, taking their photographs, taping conversations. He claims that Robert Frosch (former NASA boss, now at GM) ran a secret UFO study at the Johnson Space Center in the mid-1970’s along with Kit, using microwaves to study their effects on human behavior.”
4 February 1994
“Kit urges me to meet Dan Smith: why is he pushing me into this mess? Should I mention that Smith spreads the rumor that Kit was involved in MK-Ultra and ‘isn’t somebody on whom you should turn your back?’ Those games are too subtle for me.”
11 February 1994
“Dan T. Smith phoned my office this morning, telling my assistant he was referred to me by ‘his two good friends Fred Beckman and Kit Green.’ I didn’t return the call…”
27 February 1994
“Then I spoke with Scott Jones who was scheduling a meeting in Washington with various researchers and Dan Smith. I declined to attend”
25 July 1994
Dan T. Smith.
“Now I learn that the source of the rumor about the supposed ‘assassination’ of Ron Johnson is none other than Dan T. Smith. This episode illustrates of the confusion in the field. Much of it is being deliberately created, to what end?”
1 December 1994
Speaking about Heathen and Bootsie Galbraith.
“Dan T. Smith, too, claims his family was always close to the Galbraiths.”
13 March 1995
Vallee is talking with Fred Beckman about Vallee’s trip to Brazil and rumors that the military showed Vallee films of alien autopsies.
Vallee: “‘Where are these rumors coming from?”
‘From Durant, surprisingly, he confessed, ‘And Dan T. Smith…Dan Smith got it from Ron Pandolfi at CIA…’
3 February 1996
Discussion between Vallee, Hal Puthoff and Kit Green.
“‘Pandolfi’s office has antagonized people in Washington’ was the answer, ‘Dan T. Smith continues to spread rumors and confusion.’ ‘Why did you push me to meet with that crowd?’ I asked Kit. ‘I was really impressed with them at the time,’ he answered.”
‘Hal talks to Ron Blackburn, expecting his confidence but Blackburn brags freely to Beckman and McCampbell, who try to impress Dan Smith…”
A search for further information
An Internet search provided me with further information about Smith.
“My father was involved with the military in WW11 and was later in the government as an economist. He had no interest in UFOs, but was in contact with some influential people who I discovered later had unusual interests. After doing some graduate work in physics I turned to metaphysics. An extended psychic experience led me to contact MUFON and through them I came into contact with Tom [Ronald Pandolfi-KB] at the CIA in ’91. He was known as the ‘keeper of the weird.’
“…I wanted to find out what take the CIA might have on eschatology [See note below-KB] and possibly provide some input. Discussing the aviary and the UFO community was a good excuse for continuing contact with an intelligence officer who had relevant responsibilities.”
“…I began to network with some folks in the UFO community who were interested in sharing information. Through Tom I was in contact with some other members of the aviary…At one point some of my UFO colleagues persuaded the CIA I/G (Inspector General) to conduct an internal investigation of Tom relative to his unusual methods of collecting information…well there was the fact that he was involved in domestic collections. He was making provocative statements to me about the possible presence of ETs. He spoke freely of his involvement with other members of the aviary. On several occasions we met in ‘nightclubs.’ He had ‘indelicate’ conversations with a female researcher. It was far from clear what was in the line of duty. He was interviewed by an IG officer…”
“…along with the rest of the UFO community, I believe that we have been visited. I believe that this visitation was in preparation for a messianic event which is imminent. That event will inaugurate our Millennium of preparation leading up to the Eschaton. I am suggesting that the Visitors could be playing several roles that would be relevant to a messianic event…”
Robert Morningstar writes
I needed to look up what the word “eschatology” in a dictionary. There it was defined as “a part of theology concerned with the final events of history, or the ultimate destiny of humanity. This concept is commonly referred to as the “end of the world” or “end times.”
“Smith became interested in what the government knows about paranormal phenomena in the 1980’s. In the early 1990’s he joined Rosemary Ellen Guily, a famous paranormalist, in an investigation of crop circles in Britain.
Shortly after Smith began looking into government complicity in a cover-up of an eschatological phenomenon problem, he was introduced to a CIA analyst named Ron Pandolfi. Smith and Pandolfi have been friends ever since, and Smith often blogs about the latest gossip passed on to him by Pandolfi. Smith has shared numerous communications with Pandolfi and some of his associates, like Dr Kit Green, another former CIA analyst. In 2006, Pandolfi shared Green’s communications with Smith, to facilitate spreading the information to investigators.”
“And then there is Dan T. Smith whose father was Harvard economist Dan Throop Smith, the Treasury Department’s number-one tax advisor during the Eisenhower administration. Researcher Gary Bekkum said of Dan T. Smith: ‘His personal meetings have included former and present representatives of the US government intelligence community and their political associates, like Chris Straub, a former member of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.
Researcher Vince Johnston, who had the opportunity to speak with Smith about his ufological views and insider contacts stated: ‘According to Smith, UFOs are primarily a psychological/metaphysical phenomenon which are both preparing us and pressuring us to develop our own PSI abilities. Not that UFOs are a single type of entity; Smith asserts that there are ‘powers and principalities’ at work – presumably supernatural entities such as angels and demons.
Johnson added: ‘[Smith] reported that his governmental sources ‘hinted at’ an eschatological emergency… when I asked why the CIA was interested in eschatology, he replied that the ramifications of the eschaton event represented a serious threat to national security, and thus fell into the purview of the intelligence agencies. Smith also revealed that the eschatological issues he raised related directly to the biblical prophecies of the Book of Revelation.”
Smith claims that “Robert Frosh (former NASA boss, now at GM) ran a secret UFO study at the Johnston Spacecraft Center in the mid-1970’s along with Kit, using microwaves to study their effects on human behavior.” First, it’s “Frosch,” and “Johnson Space Center” (as in LBJ).
What is true is that John Schuessler, longtime MUFON director, worked at the JSC in the 1970s and 80s. He investigated UFOs on his own, not as part of any NASA program. Schuessler was fixated on the Cash-Landrum case (which did not occur until December 1980), in which he was a principal investigator. Schuessler thought this case did involve microwave effects on the witnesses.
Probably Smith was misrepresenting Schuessler’s not-so-secret investigations of supposed ‘microwave effects’ while he was at JSC in the early 1980s as a secret NASA study.
The relationship between the phenomenon and the Eschaton is the focus on my book “Apocalypse Aliena”. Comparing the messages given by “ET” with the ones from the “Virgin Mary” it is evident to see the similarities, reg. the coming “end times”. Clearly also the intelligence community noticed that.
see the Important Memo, to get a flavor of “end of times” from the intelligence community http://www.noufors.com/Documents/Majestic-12%20Documents%20-%20New%20Batch/important_memo.pdf
Editor’s Note: I have met just about everyone referred to here, and they represent many of the most important people in the field.
UFO/UAP Dives into Ocean
Draft dives into ocean On Radar
A spherical unidentified flying object (UFO) hovers in midair, moves side to side like a ball in the “Pong” video game and then seems to dive into the ocean, in footage that was recently released online by a filmmaker who produces documentaries about UFOs. On May 14, Jeremy Corbell described the mysterious object on his website, writing that “the US Navy photographed and filmed ‘spherical’ shaped UFOs and advanced transmedium vehicles” — craft that can travel through air and water — in 2019.
Pentagon spokesperson Susan Gough confirmed that U.S. Navy personnel did capture the footage that Corbell posted, The Debrief reported on May 14. Gough told The Debrief in an email that the footage was included in “ongoing examinations” by the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force (UAPTF), a U.S. Office of Naval Intelligence program that investigates reports of unexplained aerial vehicles, according to The Debrief.
The Department of Defense released 3 unclassified Navy videos from 2004 and 2015 showing “unidentified aerial phenomena” on April 27, 2020.
(DOD/Released) Navy personnel claim the USS Kidd personnel could see them with the naked eye, they were almost at eye level with the bridge hovering .
They were the same Tic Tac shape This is the same area the Nimitz encounter. ttps://americanmilitarynews.com/2021/04/leaked-video-pyramid-like-ufos-swarm-navy-destroyer/
Power Generating Plants
Lt. Col. Brown
After returning from WWII an Air Force hero, Lt. Col. Brown worked in the Air Force Office of Special Investigations. He was assigned to work on Project Grudge where he was responsible for investigating UFO’s and came to recognize that on some cases there were no viable conventional explanations.
He later came to believe that Project Bluebook was a deliberate whitewash to the public. Among others, he was privy to reports of cases where four independent radars were tracking objects that were traveling 5000 miles an hour.
The so called scientist experts often claim UFOs are not real, while thousands of pilots an aircrews have spotted UFOS and gun camera film, radar and ground observation indicate they exist. During 1952, a naval exercise occurred and lights entered the carrier traffic pattern. Balls of light appeared to have intelligence that appeared and disappeared. Col. Brown saw five lights in a row that seemed to be windows of light that suddenly disappeared. The lights may have been widows into the interior of the craft ,while the craft itself was invisible or in a different dimension..
He studied the Blue Book Investigation and felt it was a complete cover-up by Dr. Condon’s University of Colorado group.
He also invented a device which reduced vehicle emissions by 40% and increased fuel mileage by 20%, by putting hydrogen water in the air inside an engine “My concept really just opened the door on a whole new field of science. This is not just my judgment but that of at least 3 or 4 PhD’s in physics, chemistry and engineering.” He was subjected to abuse, sabotage, theft, and endless harassment. Apparently the government and others did not want to have his invention used that would have decreased fuel burning by 20% are increased performance by 20 %. I met Col Brown at Dr. Greer’s Disclosure Conference . Dr. Greer’s mission is to initiate peaceful contact and put an end to the disinformation surrounding contact.
Early approval would have added oxygen to the air and reduced carbon dioxide CO2 by 20%. It is basically a water vapor injector into the engine like that used in aircraft to increase power.
Hydrogen Power
The next generation will see the expansion of hydrogen power. It is obvious the new government in decreasing the amount of oil produced in the United States by stopping frocking and oil pipe lines. They are looking at other products.
The BMW Hydrogen 7 is a limited production hydrogen internal combustion engine vehicle built from 2005-2007[1] by German automobile manufacturer BMW. The car is based on BMW’s traditional gasoline-powered BMW 7 Series (E65) line of vehicles, and more specifically the 760Li. It uses the same 6-litre V-12 motor as does the 760i and 760Li; however, it has been modified to also allow for the combustion of hydrogen as well as gasoline, making it a bivalent engine. Unlike many other current hydrogen powered vehicles like those being produced by Hyundai, Honda, General Motors, and Daimler AG – which use fuel cell technology and hydrogen to produce electricity to power the vehicle – the BMW Hydrogen 7 burns the hydrogen in an internal combustion engine.
Electrolysis is a process that splits hydrogen from water using an electric current. Electrolysis is commonly used to demonstrate chemical reactions and hydrogen production in high school science classes. On a large, commercial scale, the process may be referred to as power-to-gas, where power is electricity and hydrogen is gas. Electrolysis itself does not produce any byproducts or emissions other than hydrogen and oxygen. The electricity for electrolysis can come from renewable sources such as hydro, solar, or wind. Expect to hear more about hydrogen power to power ships and other vehicles.
22 Pound Aquarius Engine
“It was always our dream at Aquarius Engines to breathe oxygen into hydrogen technology as the fuel of the future,” said Gal Fridman, Chairman of Aquarius Engines.
“From initial tests it appears that our hydrogen engine, that doesn’t require costly hydrogen fuel-cells, could be the affordable, green and sustainable answer to the challenges faced by global transport and remote energy production,” Fridman continued. “As the world moves away from fossil fuel, our new hydrogen engine could spark the dawning of the age of Aquarius.” Israel-based Aquarius Engines unveiled a new hydrogen engine that it says could do away with the global reliance on hydrogen fuel cells and fossil fuels, the company explained in a press statement via PR Newswire.
The machine, which weighs only 22 lb (10 kg), is a single-piston-linear-engine, that runs exclusively on hydrogen. As it has only 20 components and one moving part, the engine is also much cheaper to produce and maintain than traditional engines.
The electric versus hydrogen debate rages on
Indeed, as with many green initiatives, the financial incentive behind going hydrogen is set to play a big role, and will likely determine whether we eventually drive hydrogen cars or electric at a mass scale.
Really, the main selling point of the new Aquarius Hydrogen Engine, with its one moving part, is the fact that it’s much cheaper than hydrogen fuel cells. Still, it might take more for the current trend to veer away from electric vehicles. Elon Musk was quick to reply, saying “Hydrogen is a staggeringly dumb form of energy storage for cars. Barely worth considering it for a rocket upper stage, which is its most compelling use.”
That’s not to say plenty of companies aren’t exploring hydrogen fuel as a sustainable method for transportation
Multiple sources familiar with the matter tell that while the Pentagon and other agencies probing the matter have reached no clear conclusions on what happened, the fact that such an attack might have taken place so close to the White House is particularly alarming.
Defense officials briefed lawmakers on the Senate and House Armed Services Committees on the matter earlier this month, including on the incident near the White House. That incident, which occurred near the Ellipse, the large oval lawn on the south side of the White House, sickened one National Security Council official, according to multiple current and former US officials and sources familiar with the matter.
In a separate 2019 episode, a White House official reported a similar attack while walking her dog in a Virginia suburb just outside Washington, GQ reported last year.
Film of Directed Energy Weapon Bouncing Ray of Ionosphere
Directed energy weapons (DEWs) are defined as electromagnetic systems capable of converting chemical or electrical energy to radiated energy and focusing it on a target, resulting in physical damage that degrades, neutralizes, defeats, or destroys an adversarial capability.
Air Force and Navy DEWs include systems that use High Energy Lasers (HEL) that emit photons, and High Power Microwaves (HPM) that release radiofrequency waves. The U.S. Navy uses DEWs for power projection and integrated defense missions. The ability to focus the radiated energy reliably and repeatedly at range, with precision and controllable effects, while producing measured physical damage, is the measure of DEW system effectiveness. Directed Energy Weapons (CDEW) program.
The mystery ailment that has afflicted U.S. embassy staff and CIA officers off and on over the last four years in Cuba, China, Russia and other countries appears to have been caused by high-power microwaves, according to a report released by the National Academies. A committee of 19 experts in medicine and other fields concluded that directed, pulsed radiofrequency energy is the “most plausible mechanism” to explain the illness, dubbed Havana syndrome.
The report doesn’t clear up who targeted the embassies or why they were targeted. But the technology behind the suspected weapons is well understood and dates back to the Cold War arms race between the U.S. and the Soviet Union. High-power microwave weapons are generally designed to disable electronic equipment. But as the Havana syndrome reports show, these pulses of energy can harm people, as well.
As an electrical and computer engineer who designs and builds sources of high-power microwaves, I have spent decades studying the physics of these sources, including work with the U.S. Department of Defense. Directed energy microwave weapons convert energy from a power source – a wall plug in a lab or the engine on a military vehicle – into radiated electromagnetic energy and focus it on a target. The directed high-power microwaves damage equipment, particularly electronics, without killing nearby people.
Dr. Judy Wood, a former assistant professor at Clemson University, has developed compelling evidence that a directed energy weapon turned the physical matter of the World Trade Center towers into nanoparticles through the process of molecular dissociation
Was the World Trade Center Hit by Directed Energy Weapons?
It appears a powerful explosion or energy destroyed this building?
This video claims a directed energy weapon is melting the ice in Antarctica , Arctic and Greenland to make it appear there is global warming occurring.. I do not know if this story is true but there are many strange things going on which may indicate advanced ET science. The level of destruction and the pulverizing of the molecular structure of the building and steel seemed incomprehensible without some tremendous force.
Molecular dissociation causes the cement and steel to become aerosols. Thousands of tons of strong material in two buildings 210 stories high including steel, cement, desks, computers and marble were turned into dust. The planes that hit the buildings simply did not create this great a force. The level of destruction was phenomenal.

Many strange things are happening that indicates a very powerful country or organization is at work.
China, Russia and the US have satellites with Directed Energy weapons. China is thought to have continued using them in starting the fires throughout the U.S.. It is interesting that most of the fires started recently form a line of wildfires as if satellites were starting the fires.
The Chinese Communists have an array of DEWS carried by some of its satellites. The tens of thousands of fires started around the country last year include 8,000 for California and the most ever for Colorado. Towns have been burnt to the ground while the forest around them remains. Untouched.
NASA Says Virtually No Atmosphere on Mars
The obvious problem with this news, of course, is that Mars has virtually no atmosphere according to official NASA figures, which state the Mars atmosphere is 0.6% the pressure of Earth’s atmosphere. Notably, helicopters can’t fly in a near-vacuum, even in the lower Mars gravity (which is 38% of Earth’s gravity, roughly). It appears NASA has kept the Mars atmosphere a secret.
On Monday, April 19, 2021, the Ingenuity helicopter flew attempt the first ever powered, controlled flight on another planet. Apr 19, 2021 · During this first flight, the helicopter climbed to an altitude of 10 feet (3 meters), hovered, and then touched back down on the surface of Mars. Ingenuity is a technology demonstration. The 4-pound (1.8-kilogram) rotorcraft will help determine whether future explorations on Mars could include an aerial perspective.
Dust Storm on MARS Shows Atmosphere
It is not generally known that in the summer temperatures can reach 90 degrees F. Thus life on Mars is much more likely than we have been told. This is all part of the classified version of Mars that is kind of hard to hide when the helicopter needs air to fly.
My Judgment Day2
Editor’s Note: During my operations at Debora Hospital I almost died when the surgeon accidently cut an artery. My body was filled with blood before he could stop the internal bleeding and I was expected to die. During the operation I had an experience or dream that I was at the final judgment jury where it was decided I was not worthy to continue to live.
I accepted the decision when I heard the song “Onward Christian Soldiers” and a loud voice stated “George can live if he helps stop the murder of millions of babies”.
I agreed to help and that is the reason I’m still alive and for the following article.
Abortion advocates have frequently argued that abortion is necessary to protect women’s mental health, or even beneficial. But a 2011 study published in the British Journal of Psychiatry found that 10 percent of mental health problems among women, including 35 percent of suicidal behaviors, may be attributable to abortion. These findings were based on the combined results of all studies published between 1995 and 2009 that met strict inclusion criteria. The resulting analysis included 877,181 women from six countries.
Women who aborted were 81 percent more likely to experience mental health problems compared to all other control groups, and 55 percent more likely to have problems compared to women who delivered an unplanned or unwanted pregnancy.
First year data on suicides only , many suicides happen later.
Further, a meta-analysis combining the results of eight studies of women who experienced unwanted pregnancies, published in 2013, concluded that “there is no available evidence to suggest that abortion has therapeutic effects in reducing the mental health risks of unwanted or unintended pregnancy.” about 700 women die each year in the United States as a result of normal pregnancy or delivery complications. Suicide rates among women of childbearing age are 11.3 out of 100,000. Post-abortion women have a [suicide] rate of 34.7.or 461 suicides per year. Interestingly enough, women who have given birth have a suicide rate of 5.9 per hundred thousand or 77.
NOW AVALIABLE: THE SEVEN TRILOGY’S THIRD NOVEL SECRETS
by Fred Ellis Brock
SECRETS, by Fred Ellis Brock, the third novel of The Seven trilogy, is out. A cross-genre thriller involving kidnapping, murder, and UFO conspiracies, it 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 is nonstop. The first two novels, THE SEVEN and SHADOWS, are available wherever books are sold. The publisher is Wyatt-MacKenzie. More information is at www.fredellisbrock.com. (Note: Amazon has hundreds of books with “seven,” “shadows,” and “secrets” in the title. Search for the author’s name. The books will pop right up.) From a review of THE SEVEN in the Arizona Daily Star: “Is the idea 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 in 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 it out-digging up the facts is his specialty, after all — and to his surprise they simply do not 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 is the first volume of a planned trilogy featuring Bill Sanders and his close encounters with “The Seven.” “Like his protagonist, Brock is 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.”

UFO Sightings in the United States
Sightings are from MUFON CMS
Alabama Light
Anderson – on May 26, 2021, traveling East on County Road 54 between Loxley and Silverhill I saw an object. It started moving East but seemed to be moving sideways rather than like an arrow would fly, object appears to be cigar shaped. The sunlight seemed to reflect off it at times and then it would disappear, only to reappear seconds later.
California Lights
Simi Valley – On December 31, 2020, we were standing in my front yard on New Year’s Eve and mid night this pops up.
Colorado Lights
Saluda – on May 12, 2021, 10:00 I observed a bright light NW my position while stargazing. I saw a white spike of light under the bottom of a donut shaped (on edge) object that was also brilliant white. I had another camera set up with a 400mm lens.
Hawaii Object
Honolulu (Hawaii News Now) – on January 1, 2021, An unidentified flying object spotted in the evening sky over Leeward Oahu prompted witnesses to call 911 on Tuesday. The sighting happened about 8:30 p.m. FAA notified after large blue UFO seen above Oahu appeared to drop into ocean www.hawaiinewsnow.com
Louisiana Disc
New Orleans– September 29, 2020, observed by my Wife during the Evening hours. She saw a disk-like object moved from NW to SW then quickly moved towards NW direction.
Mississippi Light
Diberville – on May 10, 2021, since May.10, I have seen, recorded in video and pics many UFO like activities. Mainly the wheel within a wheel UFO. It happens almost every night.
New Jersey Objects
Warren County — 2019 to 2021. Over the past 3 years people along the Delaware River especially White Township and Harmony have reported sightings of UFO’s to MUFON. Here is a picture of 2 UFO’s over a field across from the Hop & Vine liquor store in Route 519 in White. When the picture was taken, nothing could be seen but 3 days later viewing the photo the 2 objects were seen. They show the “blurry” image as most photos show a “field” of energy around the crafts. Reported and investigated it could not be explained. Thanks to Field Investigator Chief Jack Nicolas
New York Object
New Windsor – on May 1, 2021, Three photos were taken of a light mass that appears to be unorganized.
Note: The witness did not describe what he saw. The apparent streaked mass could have been due to a combination of camera movement and/or camera time exposure. Questions have been posed to the witness. Updates will be posted. Thanks to Will Pucket/www.ufosnw.com/newsite/

Murfreesboro – on May 18, 2021, My boyfriend saw this triangular shaped ‘cloud’ silently appear and hover over him, turned some, then it disappeared. I only included one photo as they’re not mine. But he has 6 others taken during the sighting. I’ve added his email to the report and he fully supports and is aware of this report and wouldn’t mind an email asking about it further. We just discussed it.
Washington Light
Tacoma – on May 16, 2021, captured video of these 4 objects hovering in the sky only a 5 minute walk away. They looked extremely large and close. They were huge and close. I live in a high rise on the 15th floor and these were not commercial planes. They hovered for so long I got tired of recording so I stopped. hey split apart and went different directions. In the video they look very far and small and in person they looked huge.
Worldwide UFO Sightings
Atlantic Ocean Sphere
Puerto Rico — On November 10, 2019 around 2 PM we departed San Juan airport for New York City. I had a window seat fling at 35,000 feet, and I was looking down at the Atlantic and spotted several large ships. At around 4pm, I noticed a white sphere hovering over the water. There was whitewater below causing the water below it to churn. It appeared to be quite large and hovering above the water as I tried to film. This is a depiction of sighting.
Australia Lights
Kappa ring – on May 26, 2021, I was watching an object in the sky for about 4 minutes whilst in the passenger seat of a car. It looked like two car headlights flying which reminded me of Harry Potter. It was a few kilometers away. The craft started getting closer to us fast floating on air. Another similar craft appeared next to the first craft, but then it stayed in the one spot and the first craft kept coming. Within seconds, the first craft was a 100 meters above us. We stopped at a red light and I filmed its metallic dark flat triangle shape. There were three white then flashing green and red lights one on each tip. The triangular object then flew directly to our right, quite beautiful, and rotated about 180 degrees clockwise. It then shot off into the distance.
Canada Cylinder
Hamilton– on May 1, 2021, very large, slowly descending cylinder.
Croatia Lights
Rovinj— On December 31, 2020, saw lights in the sky.
Japan Objects
Tokyo — A mysterious flying object appears! SID-1® captured a UFO similar to an unidentified flying object announced by the US Department of Defense. SID-1® also recorded the same object! It became clear that many UFOs photographed by SID-1® were recorded that were reminiscent of the white objects of GOFAST. Surprisingly, not only are the shapes of these mysterious flying objects photographed off Tokyo and Florida very similar, but the ratio of the major axis to the minor axis is 1.80 to 1.00, which is exactly the same ratio. The fact that they are in the same capsule shape and have the same ratio of major axis to minor axis is likely to be the same type of similar object. I tried to summarize those videos from the huge record of SID-1®. It has also been analyzed that these images are not birds, aircraft, helicopters, drones, airships, balloons, halation phenomena, natural phenomena, lens ghosts or flares.

Slovakia Light
Bratislava– on May 2, 2021, I was walking near my home and been making video of nature when I saw flying fast speed a while orb. I vided it saw it with my eyes and also by my Mobil. I thought maybe meteor (?) but at home I realized it was something else…. I am really curious about your opinion.
UK/England Skype
Herne Bay — on May 16th 2021, I went out into our garden and could see 2 light sources across the southern sky, Denebola and Arcturus using my iPod star AP. There was a short tail of a shooting star to the left of Denebola in the Leo constellation. Within 15 seconds the same light happened again moving in a slight curve, as if a single light was travelling around the circumference of an invisible disk shaped object, once, with 10-30 second gap between it happened 5 more times. I started to video and captured the period between the lights that increased gradually, then it ceased.

It’s often said about science that the more we learn, the less we know. That is certainly true when it comes to fast radio bursts – these millisecond pulses have been difficult to detect, challenging to track, nearly impossible to predict and frustrating to explain. Yet our knowledge of them continues to grow as more are found … but that new knowledge typically negates what we thought we knew. A recent example is FRB 20200120E – a fast radio burst discovered in 2020 and traced to a globular cluster about 11.7 million light-years away, making it the closet known FRB outside of our own galaxy. Yet the good look that its proximity gives us doesn’t reinforce previous theories on fast radio bursts — FRB 20200120E instead defies a big one.
In 2021, astronomers using the Hubble space telescope discovered five fast radio bursts and traced them to the spiral arms of five distant galaxies. These FRBs conformed to the prevailing theory that they come from young magnetars – neutron stars with unusually high magnetic levels. They also fit into the idea that magnetars are generally found in galaxies that are actively creating new stars. In the blink of an FRB, FRB 20200120E may have challenged both of those theories
“Here we conclusively prove that FRB 20200120E is associated with a globular cluster in the M81 galactic system, thereby confirming that it is 40 times closer than any other known extragalactic FRB. Because such globular clusters host old stellar populations, this association challenges FRB models that invoke magnetars formed in a core-collapse supernova as powering FRB emission.”
In a new paper on the preprint server arXiv, astronomers put FRB 20200120E in a globular cluster containing objects billions of years old — some of the most ancient in the observable universe. That’s not the kind of neighborhood conducive to magnetars created when young massive stars explode and die. This is like seeing a pharaoh painted on the wall of an ancient Egyptian tomb watching television – FRB 20200120E doesn’t belong in this picture. And yet … there it is. The more we learn …
If FRB 20200120E isn’t a magnetar created by the death of a young star, the authors of the paper theorize it could have formed when a low-mass white dwarf interacting with another star and gained enough mass to collapse into a neutron star. Or it’s the result of a merger or collision of two white dwarfs. Or … what we know about FRBs themselves is wrong — FRB 20200120E may not have come from a magnetar at all. They propose its source could be a low-mass X-ray binary pairing a white dwarf and a neutron star. Or an even stranger binary pair of a neutron star and an exoplanet. It might even be a growing black hole.
The more we learn about fast radio bursts, the less we know about them. The same could be said about the field of astronomy – what we once thought were just people peering through a telescope and drawing what they see has become a field where being a detective leads to greater success … and more questions.
The field of astronomy – like the universe it explores – is wide open.

Possible UFO flying above the Martian surface caught by Perseverance Rover
Possible UFO flying above the Martian surface caught by Perseverance Rover
On May 28, 2021, the Perseverance mars rover captured two images of the same landscape. Image 1 shows a possible UFO flying above the surface of Mars (Time 11.36.48) but Image 2, captured 10 minutes earlier, shows No UFO (Time 11.26.48).
At first glance, the small light source looks like a camera artifact but after adjusting brightness and contrast, the image shows us the shape of a UFO and the thrust that moves the UFO forward.
The filmmaker, who leaked the footage that shows UFOs harassing a warship off the California coast in 2019, has released new radar footage that allegedly shows the USS Omaha being swarmed by UFOs.
Jeremy Corbell claims the video was recorded on July 15, 2019, in the ship’s combat information center. Earlier this month, he released a video taken aboard the USS Omaha showing a strange spherical UFO over the ship before disappearing into the ocean.
In his latest Tweet, Corbell said, “this is corroborative electro-optic data demonstrating a significant UFO event series in a warning area off San Diego.”
The newly released clip shows sailors aboard the Omaha observing up to nine UFOs swarming the ship at speeds about 160mph.
A sailor is heard saying, “Holy sh–t they’re going fast,” before adding, “Oh, it’s turning around.”
The Pentagon had previously confirmed that the leaked video of three UFOs hovering over the USS Russell in July 2019 disclosed by Corbell is authentic.
Corbell and investigative reporter George Knapp discussed the new clip during Knapp’s paranormal show “Mystery Wire.” On the program, Corbell said they have footage from the combat information center (CIC) from a crew that was specifically assigned to record these strange events.
According to the filmmaker, 14 UFOS could be seen at one point on the Navy radar, but that video was not provided. The Department of Defense is still mum on the latest footage.
The new revelation comes as defense officials are getting ready to present Congress with a report detailing all the government knows about UFOs next month, a mandate attached to the $2.3 trillion COVID-19 bill of President Donald Trump in December.
PENTAGON UFO REPORT: WATCH NEW VIDEO LEAKED AHEAD OF LANDMARK DOSSIER
PENTAGON UFO REPORT: WATCH NEW VIDEO LEAKED AHEAD OF LANDMARK DOSSIER
“WHAT I’M SAYING IS THAT THESE ARE UNIDENTIFIED AND WE HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW, A NEED TO KNOW, AND A DUTY TO FIND OUT.”
ON JULY 15, 2019, UNITED STATES NAVY PERSONNEL FILMED SOMETHING THEY COULDN’T EXPLAIN — OR AT LEAST, THAT IS WHAT A NEW VIDEOPURPORTS TO SHOW.
The video dropped Thursday afternoon on the website of Jeremy Corbell, a filmmaker and UFO enthusiast. In the new footage, we can see what appears to be a radar display with multiple objects moving across the field. At a point in the video, one of the people apparently monitoring the radar exclaims: “holy shit.”
The website describes the new footage thus:
This RADAR data release shows four clips; multiple unknown targets (and one civilian vessel). Some of the unknown targets drop off RADAR in this footage. This happened numerous times throughout the UFO encounter series. At the height of the contacts - there were at least fourteen unknowns observed at one time. The event series reached a crescendo with one of the unknown targets entering the water at 11pm. No wreckage found. None of the unidentified craft were recovered.
This is just the latest escalation in what is fast becoming an all-consuming obsession on the part of the U.S. public. Sarah Scoles, a journalist and author of the UFO culture book They Are Already Here, has been researching UFO incidents for four years but never imagined that things would get as heated as quickly as they have the last few months.
The video was not independently verified by Inverse. You can watch the new footage here:
This unverified footage purports to show a UFO encounter with U.S. Navy.
The video comes weeks ahead of one of the most-anticipated events of 2021. Inverse, like Scoles, is keeping an eye on the Pentagon UFO report, which is set to be released in June.
“It's definitely not what I expected when I first started looking into UFOs around 2017,” Scoles tells Inverse. “This was not what I thought the end result would be, or even that public interest would sustain itself for this long.”
The government report on unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) is due to be delivered by June 25. The report has been preceded by a series of surprising statements by the Department of Defense authenticating grainy footage of UAP caught by Navy pilots. This has lead many who have been following the development of this story to wonder: Why are UFOs suddenly the big talk of the government?
Ahead of the release of the UAP report, Inverse breaks down what to expect from it, how much of it will be available to the public, and how it will likely change the narrative around UFOs.
WHY IS THE PENTAGON RELEASING A UFO REPORT?
The catalyst from the reports come from a series of leaked Pentagon videos purporting to show UFOs:
The latest video, leaked on May 27, 2021 by Corbell, appears to show U.S. Navy encountering numerous unidentified objects on radar.
In 2017 Navy videos leaked, stirring up a barrage of rumors online. The footage shows a cluster of odd-looking aircraft executing strange maneuvers. The Navy pilots can be heard saying: “what the f--k is that?”
In April 2020, the Pentagon formally released the three videos of “unidentified aerial phenomenon” — the official term for UFOs — captured by the Navy pilots.
The Pentagon release suggested the videos were legitimate, but it did not say what the crafts were or were believed to be.
In December 2020, the government made the Intelligence Authorization Act law and called for an unclassified report on UAPs to be published in 2021.
The Act was a part of the mammoth appropriations bill that also included financial aid checks for people living with the economic fallout from Covid-19.
The report is due in June. It will be compiled by the Director of National Intelligence and the Secretary of Defense and it should pull together everything the U.S. military knows about the phenomena. It will first be presented to the congressional Intelligence and Armed Services committees.
For people like Corbell, the release of the report is like a dream come true.
“I was always hopeful that if we beat the drum, marched forward and shook things up and kicked down some doors, that we would see a day like this,” Corbell tells Inverse. “I’m an optimist so I had to believe that we would get more confirmation from what our military knows about the UFO presence on planet Earth.”
Corbell has previously shared footage captured by the U.S. Navy off the coast of San Diego in July 2019. The video, which he shared on Twitter, showed a dark, spherical shape disappearing into the water.
A few days later, the Department of Defense confirmed that the video was recorded by military personnel and that it would be reviewed by the Pentagon’s Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force.
Seth Shostak, a senior astronomer at the SETI Institute, says that the government was forced to confirm the legitimacy of the Navy videos because they leaked to the public — but notably, they didn’t confirm much else.
“I don’t think they were planning on releasing these videos,” Shostak tells Inverse. “And in releasing them, they said, ‘well, these videos are definitely videos.’”
WHAT IS GOING TO BE IN THE UFO REPORT?
As far as what is going to be included in the Pentagon’s report, Corbell is not one step ahead of the government this time.
“I don’t have a crystal ball so I can’t predict what will be in it,” Corbell says. “Anything they put out for me is good because it’s saying that the Senate Intelligence Committee is listening to the American public and that this is important to the American public.”
Former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe said in a high-profile interview with Fox News earlier this year that the report would contain information on “difficult to explain” sightings.
“NOW, COULD THEY BE ALIENS? SURE, THAT OPTION IS DEFINITELY FIRMLY SITTING ON THE TABLE.”
“We are talking about objects that have been seen by Navy or Air Force pilots, or have been picked up by satellite imagery, that frankly engage in actions that are difficult to explain, movements that are hard to replicate, that we don’t have the technology for, or are traveling at speeds that exceed the sound barrier without a sonic boom,” Ratcliffe told Fox News in March.
In addition to the three videos the Pentagon confirmed as real footage in April 2020, the Department of Defense also confirmed the authenticity of several photos and videos of UAPs taken in July 2019.
The footage shows mysterious lights encircling the USS Russell and the USS Omaha at the Naval Base in San Diego — a major point of operations for the U.S. Navy.
A Defense Department spokeswoman confirmed to CNN in April 2021 that the footage of triangle-shaped flying objects was indeed recorded by Navy pilots, but that the Department could not explain what they were.
It’s still not clear whether the report will also include footage that the public has already seen, or if it will release new video footage.
“They’re kind of trying to keep all of this under wraps right now, so I don’t really think we have a sense of what it will contain,” Scoles says. “It would be great if we saw more of their cases because I’ve seen all of the videos and photos that we have about a thousand too many times.”
Meanwhile, Shostak believes that parts of the report will be classified and not available to the public.
“It’s going to be a mix, that’s often the case with these reports,” Shostak says. “Some of it is going to be classified simply because the military doesn’t want to tell you too much about the capabilities of their cameras.”
HOW WILL THE UFO REPORT AFFECT US?
When the Pentagon released the footage of the UAPs, they admitted they cannot explain the maneuvers pulled by the aircraft seen in the videos. So it’s pretty safe to assume that the report will not confirm whether or not the UAPs are in fact alien spaceships or some form of foreign technology.
“I think in the end, it is above all else an unclassified government report and it will read like that,” Scoles says.
But Scoles believes the report may still serve a purpose as it will lay the groundwork for figuring out what to do with the information that has been released and provide a way to systemize information that may be available in the future.

WILL THE UFO REPORT CONFIRM ALIENS?
The short answer is, no. The language adopted by the side of the government has emphasized that they themselves are not sure what these flying objects are.
“You have a transparent, honest response from our military that they don't know what these are,” Corbell says. “So they’re telling the truth.”
Corbell himself remains agnostic as to whether they might be aliens.
“I’m not saying that they’re aliens, I’ve never said that once in my life,” Corbell says. “What I’m saying is that these are unidentified and we have a right to know, a need to know, and a duty to find out from a safety standpoint, from a national security standpoint, as well as for understanding our place in the universe as humanity.”
“Now, could they be aliens?” he adds. “Sure, that option is definitely firmly sitting on the table.”
Although alien enthusiasts have been rejoicing over the government finally confirming the footage of UAPs, it doesn’t necessarily mean that they are admitting these are alien spaceships. Instead, the government’s main concern appears to be whether or not this poses some form of threat.
“It will probably be focused on whether UAP presents a national security threat which is a very terrestrial, very grounded concerning,” Scoles says. “And so that I think will tether a lot of people to Earth.”
But in most cases related to alleged UFO sightings, it only takes an incident of an unidentified aerial phenomenon for people to claim that it is the work of an alien civilization and that will most likely happen with the release of this report.
“UFOs have a very good way of sustaining their own history,” Scoles says.
Ellis Silver: “The Earth was colonized, we are the aliens”
Ellis Silver: “The Earth was colonized, we are the aliens”
A few years ago, a balloon returned from a high-altitude flight covered in microscopic non-terrestrial life forms. In this way, Doctor Ellis Silver reignited the debate about the true birth of life on Earth.
The book “Humans are not from Earth” by Ellis Silver
Ellis Silver tops a list of scientists who believe that life originated on Mars . This is due to a mineral found in Martian meteorites , an essential concept for the birth of life.
Another experiment showed that amino acids could have landed on Earth by comets. This would mean that life is not just limited to the Solar System.
Ellis Silver and the origin of life
The American ecologist Ellis Silver, in his book “Humans are not from Earth,” suggests that humanity could easily come from another world , such as Mars.
The expert gives arguments that are based on human physiology . It has not evolved according to the terrestrial ecosystem, as if they did other species.
This indicates that humans “came” to the planet from somewhere else. Perhaps, brought by aliens a few tens of thousands of years ago.
Silver is currently working on a project to clean up plastic waste from the Pacific. He assures that the objective of his book is to generate debate , based on scientific work on the differences between humans and other species.
The ecologist told Yahoo News that the Earth meets all our needs as a species, but not with the effectiveness of the planet where we possibly come from.
For example, lizards can sunbathe for whole days. The human can only go out for a week or two. But what happens if it is exposed to UV rays for a long time? You could even get a deadly disease like cancer.
Another argument is that of chronic diseases ; Back or muscle problems are a sign that we are from a less serious world .
The difficulty women have in giving birth, which, without the advancement of science, could be fatal . However, no other species native to Earth has that problem.
Problems such as heat stroke are a sign that humanity does not belong to Earth.
Problems not suffered by another species
It is also necessary to point out the 223 extra genes of the human being, which are not present in another creature. And, obviously, there is no “missing link” to complete the human evolutionary chain.
Silver focuses especially on disease; the human is chronically ill. There is no person in the world who is 100% healthy .
The ecologist’s conclusion is that most of our problems as a species are simply because our internal clocks evolved to live 25-hour days .
In fact, there is a scientific study that supports this claim. But the Earth only has 24 hours a day. And this problem has been traced throughout the known evolution of mankind.
There is a possibility that early pre-humans, such as Homo Erectus, may have been interbred with other species. In addition, it is also possible that our origin comes from the Solar System closest to the Sun: Alpha Centauri .
Despite the fact that humanity is far above the development of other species, it has too many problems that are related to the environment. This should already be an indication that something strange is happening.
Panspermia and the life forms that keep coming to Earth
Panspermia and the possibility that life comes from space.
Another controversial claim by Ellies is that the bacteria came from space . In this way the theory of panspermia was born . In short, Earth could have “pollinated” nearby worlds.
NASA astrobiologist Chris McKay once stated that “curious things” have been found in the atmosphere, in relation to bacteria originating in space.
Professor Milton Wainwright , along with colleagues from Sheffield University, are working to identify that there are biological entities originating in space . This means that, continuously, there are forms of life arriving on Earth .
Chemical engineer Nir Goldman suggests that simple molecules in comets, such as water, ammonia or carbon dioxide, could have served as raw material and the impact on an early Earth could “ignite” the prebiotic reaction .
The results of their experiments confirm that previous predictions of impact synthesis of prebiotic material, where the impact could produce life-capable compounds.
Goldman is sure that this is an important step in understanding the origin of life. In addition, it increases the possibility that life does not originate from Earth and may have been spread throughout the Solar System.
This theory, as Ellis Silver originally put it, has generated great controversy. In fact, the origins of the Earth and the possibility that they came from Mars are still being investigated and debated.

NASA will head to Venus for first time in roughly 30 years

NASA will head to Venus for first time in roughly 30 years
Two spacecraft aim to solve deep mysteries about the nearby planet, including why it resembles a hellish, toxic version of Earth.
BY NADIA DRAKE
NASA had a surprise in store for planetary scientists today: During a “State of NASA” briefing, the agency announced that roiling, toxic Venus will be the target ofthe next two missions in its highly competitive Discovery program.
“These two sister missions, both aimed to understand how Venus became an inferno-like world capable of melting lead at the surface—they will offer the entire science community the chance to investigate a planet we haven’t been to in more than 30 years,” NASA Administrator Bill Nelson said during the briefing. “We hope these missions will help further our understanding of how Earth evolved and why it’s currently habitable, when other [rocky planets] in our solar system are not.”
One spacecraft, called DAVINCI+, will study the planet’s toxic atmosphere—a thick shroud of carbon dioxide and sulfuric acid clouds. The other, VERITAS, will make detailed maps of the planet’s surface and try to reconstruct its geologic history.
The announcement comes amid surging interest in a U.S.-led mission to Venus, which some planetary scientists have considered “the forgotten planet.” Venus is remarkably similar to Earth in size and mass. And although it is a hellish, inhospitable world today, it may once have been a temperate, ocean-covered planet like our own. Understanding how Venus became such an extremely unfriendly world is crucial for understanding how common truly Earth-like planets might be.
“We have an Earth-size planet next door that is nothing like Earth—why? That’s a pretty important thing to figure out,” says Paul Byrne, a planetary scientist at North Carolina State University. “We have some pretty big questions to answer regarding the formation, characteristics, and evolution of an Earth-size world.”
Double the fun
NASA’s Discovery program supports smaller, less expensive missions than those in its New Frontiers and flagship categories. Launching roughly every 36 months, Discovery missions are typically capped at $450 million, excluding launch vehicle and mission operations costs, while New Frontiers expeditions are capped at $850 million. Flagships—such as the Perseverance and Curiosity Mars rovers—can cost billions.
Currently, NASA is flying two Discovery missions. The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, launched in 2009, has spent more than a decade mapping the moon’s surface. The InSight Lander, launched in 2018, is studying the Martian interior.
In 2021, two more missions will launch: Lucy will study multiple asteroids and use them to uncover secrets about the early solar system, while Psyche will visit a giant, extremely metal-rich asteroid of the same name. At the time, some scientists grumbled about two asteroid missions being selected—especially given that they beat out several proposed Venus missions, including VERITAS and DAVINCI+.
A long time coming
Now, those missions will at last have their chance to fly, exposing new truths about the shrouded world next door.
The last U.S. mission to Venus, Magellan, ended in 1994 as the spacecraft executed a programmed plunge through the planet’s atmosphere. Since then, European and Japanese probes have visited Earth’s twisted sister, and scientists have continued to aim Ed telescopes at the intriguing planet.
Soon, perhaps by 2030, the Deep Atmosphere Venus Investigation of Noble gases, Chemistry, and Imaging, or DAVINCI+, spacecraft will set sail for Venus. It will then descend through the planet’s atmosphere, which is 90 times denser than Earth’s, collecting samples and relaying data that will help scientists understand how it evolved, and whether the planet ever had oceans.
While DAVINCI+ studies the Venusian shroud, the Venus Emissivity, Radio Science, InSAR, Topography, and Spectroscopy, or VERITAS, spacecraft will be busy mapping the planet’s surface from orbit. Those images, plus detailed information about surface chemistry and topography, will help reconstruct Venus’s geologic history—and perhaps solve the mystery of how it evolved into the hellhole next door.
“My poor dog really thought our house was under attack from the way I was screaming when I found out our mission was selected,” tweeted the Planetary Science Institute’s David Grinspoon, a member of the DAVINCI+ team.
“I’ve been pushing for this for literally my entire career,” he also tweeted. “Last U.S. Venus mission launched in 1989, year I finished grad school. So much to learn about climate, history of Earth-like worlds & life in the universe.”

Robots may be taking away our jobs, but one consolation (perhaps the ONLY consolation) is that they don’t ever seem to look like they’re enjoying it. Then again, how many of you look like you enjoy your job … at least pre-pandemic? Well, some robots have decided to rub our human noses into our job losses by curling that thing underneath THEIR useless noses into the creepiest smile ever. If you’ve been searching for incentive to rise up against our robot overlords, that look may be it.
“The idea for EVA took shape a few years ago, when my students and I began to notice that the robots in our lab were staring back at us through plastic, googly eyes.”
Hod Lipson, James and Sally Scapa Professor of Innovation (Mechanical Engineering) and director of the Creative Machines Lab at Columbia Engineering (Columbia University), explains in a press release how an observation by students who hadn’t yet gotten jobs that they would eventually lose to robots turned into a study called “Smile Like You Mean It: Driving Animatronic Robotic Face with Learned Models” which led to the development of EVA, an autonomous robot with a soft face and AI Learning algorithms it used to mimic the facial expressions of humans around it.
“The greatest challenge in creating EVA was designing a system that was compact enough to fit inside the confines of a human skull while still being functional enough to produce a wide range of facial expressions.”
Undergraduate student Zanwar Faraj led the team in developing artificial cable-and-pulley facial muscles to replace the more than 42 tiny muscles in a human face. That gave the robot the ability to express the six basic emotions of anger, disgust, fear, joy, sadness, and surprise, plus an array of more nuanced feelings. Over the mechanics they stretched a blue skin resembling a member of the popular and much-loved Blue Man Group performance art company. To make the robotic face closer to a human one than the animatronic robots at theme parks, they gave EVA deep learning artificial intelligence to “read” and then mirror the expressions on nearby human faces, and then learn more by watching videos of itself. In that way, EVA obtained a ‘self-image’.
Did it work?
“I was minding my own business one day when EVA suddenly gave me a big, friendly smile. I knew it was purely mechanical, but I found myself reflexively smiling back.”
Hod Lipson was one of the first to come under the control of EVA. He admits that his reflex response to the smiling EVA was one of the goals of the project – he had noticed that grocery stores using restocking robots often decked them out in name badges and clothing to give them a human identity, and decided the next step was to make a robot that could control that identity and its responses itself.
“Our brains seem to respond well to robots that have some kind of recognizable physical presence.”
That’s true … but is it wise? Boyuan Chen, a PhD student who led the software phase of the project, added this:
“Robots are intertwined in our lives in a growing number of ways, so building trust between humans and machines is increasingly important.”
What could possibly go wrong?
What’s the harm in making a robot smile? What’s the first thing a con man does? Or a politician? Or a pusher? A kidnapper? Anyone looking to win your trust before they violate it?
We now have a smiling robot that can make you reflexively smile back. What do you think it’s going to say as it smilingly leads you away and you ask it to tell you where it’s taking you? You’ve seen this movie before.
It seems there is no X-Files division in Australia, so we at Curious Adelaide stepped up.

It's a question many of us have asked ourselves: are we alone in the universe?
From flying saucers to balls of light rocketing through the sky, South Australia has had its fair share of reported UFO encounters.
One avid ABC reader has asked us to delve into the history of the state's major cases, as part of our Curious Adelaide campaign.
So we dusted off some of South Australia's oldest X-Files to find answers.
Nightmare on the Nullarbor
The Daily Mirror reports on the Nullarbor incident.( The Daily Mirror )
We'll start in the outback, where a traumatised family was allegedly lifted off the ground by aliens.
It was still dark in the early hours of January 20, 1988, when the Knowles family was driving along the remote Nullarbor Plain.
The seemingly mundane trip from Perth to Melbourne quickly turned to terror when they encountered an unidentified flying object that tormented them for 90 minutes.
A large glowing object "like a big ball"chased Faye Knowles and her adult sons Patrick, Wayne and Sean down the highway, before landing on their roof and plucking them into the air.
In a state of shock, Sean Knowles put his foot on the accelerator as his mother screamed but, according to reports, their voices distorted like time was slowing down.
Perhaps the treeless expanse of the Nullarbor resembled a Martian homeland.( ABC News: Jarrod Lucas )
"I wound down the window and I felt this thing on the roof... all of this smoke stuff started coming into the car, the car was covered in black stuff," Faye Knowles told reporters after the incident.
"It was a small light and all of a sudden it became big like this, like a big ball.
The family eventually made it to Ceduna and reported the bizarre events to police who took the report seriously, given the state of the car, which was dented and had dust over it.
The story made headlines around the world with sceptics and believers alike trying to make sense of what happened on that lonely stretch of road.
Flying saucers and lights in the sky

UFO reports in the state can be traced back to the beginning of the twentieth century but it wasn't until the early Cold War that they started appearing all over the place.
It seems that, in an atmosphere of heightened political tension, people became spooked by strange lights in the sky.
UFO researcher Keith Basterfield said Port Augusta was home to one of the state's first sightings.
"Five metallic objects were seen by three people working at the Commonwealth railways there.
"Even the government astronomer — we had such a person at the time — couldn't explain that sighting."

Reports made the front pages of newspapers of strange objects sighted from Eyre Peninsula to the outskirts of Adelaide.
On January 22, 1954, The Bunyip newspaper reported three people had sighted a flying saucer over Gawler.
"It looked no bigger than an ordinary saucer because of its great height."
One case that still stumps Mr Basterfield took place outside the remote community of Kimba on the Eyre Highway on the night of February 4, 1973.

Four people in three separate cars all spotted it in a clearing they passed — an orange rectangle similar to an illuminated door in the scrub, with a strange figure standing inside.
Police were baffled, so Mr Basterfield and his team drove out to investigate.
"We had a look at the site, we took soil samples from the area, we had the samples analysed looking for something unusual there," he said.
"That's not your typical flying metallic saucer but it's a very, very strange set of observations by a group of independent people.

Another strange happening, in South Australia's Flinders Ranges in 2006, was witnessed by scores of people many kilometres apart.
Service station owner John Teague was outside pumping tyres when something plummeted through the sky.
"For some reason I glanced up and I yelled, 'look at that Lloyd', and this thing was hurtling through the air," he said.
"Looked like [it was] about the size of a baseball just flying through the air rapidly."
Mr Teague made such a noise that a group across the street looked up and saw the same thing.
"Then all of a sudden, and this was quite some time later, a huge sonic boom rattled through the air," he said.
"I thought it might have been a meteor going through the air in daylight, I didn't know what it was, maybe space junk coming back.
"But it would have had to be pretty big for space junk for it to be that size way up in the air."
To this day, what it was remains a mystery.
So how common are UFO sightings in South Australia?

South Australia's Astronomical Society's Paul Curnow said it's pretty common.
"The average city person doesn't look at the sky very often and sometimes when they do look up and see something strange, they can't really explain it," Mr Curnow said.
When Curious Adelaide phoned SA Police to check whether it could shed some light on the matter there was a moment of silence, before some laughter.
Senior constable Mick Abbott did however make the following comment:
When the ABC contacted the CSIRO there was a similar reponse.
According to Paul Curnow, it's still common to get several dozen to hundreds of UFO reports each year in South Australia alone.
But what's being reported is changing, he told us, with fewer sightings of flying saucers hovering over the land.
"Probably for every 10 cases you get, nine can be explained in mundane terms," Mr Curnow said.
The majority of cases, unfortunately for those hoping for an encounter with the extra-terrestrial, have a logical explanation.
"Quite often people report a little silver dot in the sky [and it] turned out to be an aircraft," he said.
"A lot of these things like planes, satellites, planets, even searchlights sometimes, can all add to what people are reporting."
So is the truth really out there?
UFO researcher Keith Basterfield was based in Adelaide when the Knowles family incident occurred.
"My first thought was 'here is a very interesting story that we can carry out some hard science on'," he said.
"We've got a vehicle, we've got reported unusual dust on a vehicle, we've got a number of witnesses.
"If we could document all that we'd have a very strong case for saying something unusual occurred."
However, the conclusion he reached was far from the extra-terrestrial encounter portrayed by the media.
The car had been forensically tested with nothing unusual found, and Mr Basterfield had a more ordinary explanation for the bright light.
"We figured it was potentially a mirage caused by a temperature inversion that night," he said.
That kind of mirage can make lights a long way in the distance curve over the Earth's horizon and appear to be much closer than they actually are.
"Although they saw the light approaching them, they never saw the [source of the] light reach them, so it never actually got to them," Mr Basterfield said.
"It disappeared at that point in front of them so we figured a mirage of a track light several kilometres away could explain that."

He also had a simple explanation for the car jumping and vibrating.
"If a tyre explodes under your car going at really high speed you're going to get vibrations, you're going to get brake dust entering the vehicle," Mr Basterfield said.
While it seems science offers an explanation for many of the sightings in the state, you'll need to decide for yourself whether it's more tale than truth.
