A Canadian Roswell: The 1989 UFO Crash In Ottawa, Ontario (Video Footage)
A Canadian Roswell: The 1989 UFO Crash In Ottawa, Ontario (Video Footage)
IN BRIEF
The Facts:
In 1989, a supposed UFO crash occurred in Carp, Ontario. Video footage, photographs and documents were leaked by someone who referred to themselves as "The Guardian." The story is unverifiable of course, but interesting to say the least.
Reflect On:
If there have been multiple instances of crashed craft an bodies recovered, what has been discovered about them as well as the beings who operate them? Why is our world drenched in secrecy?
Nearly everybody has heard the lore of the famous 1947 UFO crash in Roswell, New Mexico. If you actually look into it, it’s hard not to believe something did indeed happen there, but it’s important to note that it’s not the only supposed incident. There are a plethora of stories of UFO crashes from around the world, several dozen stories of these incidents have happened in North America over the last several decades.
The idea that non-human intelligent life forms and their craft have crashed and been retrieved by military and government agencies is also something that’s crept into the mainstream as of late, and it’s been something many UFO researchers have been well aware of for a long time. Just last year renowned astrophysicist Eric W. Davis, who worked with the Pentagon UFO program, formerly known as AATIP (now known as the “Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force” or UAPTF), gave a classified briefing to a Defense Department Agency about retrievals from “off-world vehicles not made on this Earth.”
There is evidence showing that governments have been desperate to capture this technology for years. This inevitably means they might have been doing their best to bring these objects down at times, even if the objects don’t seem to instigate or initiate any type of aggression towards us. Based on my research, the majority of cases show that these objects perform evasive maneuvers to avoid our own aircraft. It is interesting to ponder how exactly incidents of crashed craft have occurred given the fact that the technology seems to be far more advanced than anything human beings can manufacture.
A well-known incident among UFO researchers comes from Carp, Ontario, a small community located near Ottawa. It’s an incident that cannot be verified nor be debunked. This resembles many other incidents that exist within UFO lore – we just can’t know for sure either way. Other incidents have more credibility behind them in the form of revealing declassified documents and testimony from high ranking people with verified backgrounds, like Davis mentioned above. Because of this, many researchers don’t like to explore or use this particular incident from Carp, Ontario, but I find it interesting nonetheless and feel it’s worthy of exploration.
This particular story involves a supposed extraterrestrial craft that crash-landed in the swamps just outside Carp in 1989. A supposed declassified document from Canada’s Department of National Defence described a scene common to other supposed crashes, with military soldiers desperate to retrieve the wreckage and any other debris that may have tumbled from the spacecraft surrounding the area. The supposed bodies were taken to an underground research facility while the craft was taken to a military base which coincidentally happens to be in very close proximity to the incident.
The interesting thing about this incident is that the documents were accompanied by photos as well as a VHS tape of the supposed UFO. They were leaked and distributed by an individual self-identifying as “Guardian”. The story spread quickly at the time, newspapers picked up the story and it eventually made its way to the television screen, appearing in paranormal documentaries and shows.
According to CBC news in Canada, who recently did a deep dive into the case,
People in Carp were also reluctant to talk about Guardian – on camera, at least. A year into making this documentary, we continue to get emails from people who claim to know something about the case. They’re afraid to speak on the record, uneasy about dredging up this strange part of the part of the past in a region where so many people know one another. As is the case with many witnesses to the inexplicable, they fear the attention – and the ridicule, it might draw.
Below is the short documentary they produce about the story. What’s particularly interesting is that there are interviews with multiple people in the area, many of whom have had strange UFO experiences. In one instance a woman experienced a military helicopter land near her house after she witnessed a UFO. Soldiers got out of the helicopter and quickly ran around the property, got back into the chopper and then left. What were they looking for?
Yes there have been crashed craft, and bodies recovered

A radio telescope in Canada has detected 535 fast radio bursts, quadrupling the known tally of these brief, highly energetic phenomena in one go. The long-awaited results show that these enigmatic events come in two distinct types — with most bursts being one-offs, and a minority repeating periodically and lasting at least ten times longer than average.
The findings1 strongly suggest that fast radio bursts could be the result of at least two distinct astrophysical phenomena. “I think this really just nails it that there is a difference,” says study co-author Kiyo Masui, an astrophysicist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge.
Why ultra-powerful radio bursts are the most perplexing mystery in astronomy
The overnight jump in the available data has put the radio astronomy community into a tizzy. “I woke up this morning and all my Slack channels were full of people talking about the papers,” says Laura Spitler, an astrophysicist at the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy in Bonn, Germany, who co-discovered the first repeating burst2 in 2016 using the now-collapsed Arecibo telescope in Puerto Rico.
The Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) collected the events in its first year of operation, between 2018 and 2019. The team announced their results during a virtual meeting of the American Astronomical Society on 9 June, and posted four preprints on the online repository arXiv.
Repeaters and one-offs
Located near Penticton in British Columbia, CHIME is a telescope with no moving parts. It comprises four half-pipe antennas, each 100 metres long. At any given time, it observes one narrow strip of the sky above. But as the Earth rotates, the telescope scans the sky, and digital processing chips collect its signals to form an image.
CHIME was initially conceived for mapping the distribution of matter in the Universe, but a complex kit of additional electronics was added in its design so that it could pick up fast radio bursts as well. Spitler recalls that many workers in the field had been skeptical about the telescope’s potential for detecting the bursts, but the latest announcement has vindicated it. “They’re actually meeting their prediction,” Spitler says. “It’s extremely impressive.”
While the jury is still out on what causes fast radio bursts, the CHIME results seem to cement the idea that there are at least two distinct types. Sixty-one of the 535 detected were ‘repeaters’ — coming from 18 sources that have been seen emitting bursts multiple times. The two groups differ by duration, with one-off events lasting a much shorter time. Repeaters also emit on a much narrower band of radio frequencies than do one-off bursts.
“It’s by far the most compelling evidence that there are two populations,” says Spitler.
Until recently, the evidence for this was not strong: some astronomers argued that non-repeating bursts could have just been repeaters that had not been observed long enough to see them burst again. “It doesn’t mean the phenomenon is wildly different, but it could be,” Masui adds.
Fast radio bursts tend to be detected over one second or more. But this duration is misleadingly long: as signals travel across millions of light-years of space, intergalactic matter tends to smear radio waves across the spectrum. As a result, lower-frequency waves can arrive at Earth with a delay of several seconds compared to higher-frequency ones. Researchers have calculated that at the source, the emission of a radio burst typically lasts only milliseconds. During that time, the source of a burst is can emit 500 million times more energy than the Sun over a comparable amount of time.
The extent of this ‘dispersion’ of wavelengths provides a rough indication of how far the waves had to travel. So far, all bursts have been shown to originate from other galaxies, with one exception of an event that occurred in the Milky Way.
The CHIME team reported that the bursts’ sources appeared to be evenly spread across the sky. Only a handful could be traced to a particular galaxy.
Origin theories
In recent years, researchers have monitored some the regions of the sky that produced bursts in the past, and in some cases have seen them re-occur with regular periodicity. The ‘repeater’ discovered by Spitler and her collaborators in 2016, for example, has cycles of activity lasting a day or so — emitting several bursts per hour — and repeating every 160 days.
Bevy of mysterious fast radio bursts spotted by Canadian telescope
This regular repetition offers some clues about what might be causing the bursts. One possible explanation, Spitler says, is that repeaters could occur when a highly magnetized neutron star circles around an ordinary star in an elongated orbit. As the neutron star periodically gets closer to its companion, bursts could result from its magnetic field scattering the highly energetic stellar wind.
Non-repeaters, on the other hand, could be the result of cataclysmic events such as the collisions of neutron stars or magnetic storms in young neutron stars called magnetars. The Milky Way event was linked to a known magnetar. But the magnetar theory has been put into question by the recent finding of a burst from a ‘globular cluster’ in the galaxy M813. Globular clusters are dense collections of very old stars, and are considered unlikely to host magnetars.
The first discovery of a fast radio burst in 2007 came as a shock to researchers, and for many years only a handful were known, Masui recalls. Theorists came up with a plethora of possible explanations, and the running joke was that the theories outnumbered the actual events. Now CHIME has reversed that trend, he says, “I don’t think theorists will catch up with us.” And this first catalogue is only the beginning: since it was collected, the team has continued to detect many more fast radio bursts, and will publish them for years to come.
Na de succesvolle sonde Venus Express (2005-2014) wil Europa met EnVision de planeet opnieuw gaan verkennen, zo heeft het Europese Ruimtevaartbureau ESA bekendgemaakt. België is weer uitdrukkelijk van de partij.
Venus heeft nog een reeks geheimen met als belangrijkste waarom onze naaste, en qua grootte en samenstelling op ons lijkende, buur zo een drastische klimaatsverandering heeft ondergaan. Antwoord op de vraag kan ook meer leren over de gevolgen van het broeikaseffect op Aarde. Andere vragen zijn of er nog steeds geologische activiteit is, of er ooit een oceaan en zelfs leven is geweest.
Samen met twee sondes van de NASA moet Envision, te lanceren door de toekomstige Ariane-6 ten vroegste 2031, dergelijke vragen proberen te beantwoorden.
ESA gaat er prat op dat de nieuwe Venusverkenner een “innovatief instrumentenpakket” zal meevoeren. Eén ervan is de Belgische VenSpec-H, een instrument dat voortborduurt op de NOMAD van het Belgisch Instituut voor Ruimte-Aëronomie (BIRA) op de succesvolle Europees-Russische ExoMars die rond de Riode Planeet wentelt.
Ann-Carine Vandaele, Séverine Robert en Eddy Neefs van het BIRA in Ukkel maken deel uit van de System Engineering Working Group. Vandaele leidt ook VenSpec-H.

Nieuwe planeet lijkt volgens NASA sterk op onze aarde
Nieuwe planeet lijkt volgens NASA sterk op onze aarde
Onderzoekers van NASA en de Universiteit van New Mexico zijn erachter gekomen dat de recent ontdekte planeet, TOI-1231 b, gelijkenissen met onze aarde vertoont. De planeet zou elke 24 dagen in een baan rond een rode dwergster draaien. Bovendien zou de temperatuur er veel koeler zijn dan op andere planeten. De ontdekking geeft de onderzoekers nieuwe hoop in hun zoektocht naar buitenaards leven.
De planeet zou zich acht keer dichter bij zijn ster bevinden dan de aarde bij de zon. Toch zou de temperatuur op de nieuwe planeet en die op aarde gelijkaardig zijn, omdat de rode dwergster minder krachtig is dan de zon. Vergeleken met andere planeten, die vaak een extreem hoge temperatuur van honderden of duizenden graden hebben, is de nieuwe planeet relatief koel.
Zeldzame ontdekking
Volgens onderzoekster Diana Dragomir zou TOI-1231 b omgeven zijn door een atmosfeer en is het geen rotsachtige planeet. “De samenstelling en omvang van die atmosfeer zijn daarentegen nog onbekend”, klinkt het. Het is mogelijk dat er hoog in de atmosfeer wolken aanwezig zijn. Ook de aanwezigheid van water wordt niet uitgesloten. Verder onderzoek moet daarover meer duidelijkheid bieden.
Volgens de onderzoekers zijn de resultaten van de studie erg zeldzaam. Zo ging vorig onderzoek naar exoplaneten, of planeten die om een andere ster dan de zon draaien, nog nooit gepaard met de ontdekking van een planeetsysteem dat sterke gelijkenissen met ons eigen zonnestelsel vertoont.

Partial Solar Eclipse Images from Around the World
Partial Solar Eclipse Images from Around the World
People across the northern hemisphere looked up today – taking the correct precautions, of course – and were treated to a partial solar eclipse. The partial eclipse covered a region thousands of kilometres wide across most of Europe, northern Asia and northeastern North America. An annular or “ring of fire” solar eclipse was visible to some parts of Greenland, Northern Russia, and Canada.
Our unique lead image comes from Andrew Symes from Ottawa, Canada, who took this photo with his iPhone 11 Pro through his Celestron NexStar 8SE telescope, providing a fun and interesting look at his view of the eclipse!
Skywatchers from England and Ireland had clouds to deal with, but the pictures turned out to be stunning, as this picture from Peter Gallagher, Director of Dunsink Observatory outside of Dublin, Ireland attests:
Mary McIntyre of Oxfordshire, UK reports: “The weather forecast was awful so I honestly didn’t expect to see anything, but there were plenty of clear patches as I set up the telescope and then I was able to grab quite a few images of the first half of the eclipse before cloud rolled in. I didn’t quite get maximum because thick cloud rolled in after I’d taken my 10:58 am images. Thankfully we got a few more clear patches just as the eclipse was ending.” Here’s one of her shots:
And more:
Many people planned their observations well in advance, like Julian Diamond of Millbrook, New York, USA:.

Location of sighting: Denton County, Texas, USA
Watching this raw video taken from Texas during a family outing is mind-blowing. This UFO is like no other I have ever seen. The craft is standing upright and has a huge rectangle in its center. The eyewitnesses kids continue blowing bubble...oblivious to the alien craft passing overheard. But the father keeps his cool and tries his best to ignore the bubbles and keep focussed on the unusual shaped craft flying over them. This looks like a ring UFO that is typically round and makes clouds around it, however it has collapsed itself to appear thinner and long like a key. Its very possible that the opening within the center is actually a portal for alien craft to jump from location to location instantly...faster than light transportation. For this UFO to be over Texas...there must be a huge incoming or outgoing of ships in the near future. This...sounds like a big event coming soon in Texas.

On a Tuesday hearing at the House Natural Resources Committee, Rep. Louie Gohmert had an idea for solving the climate crisis permanently...by changing the orbits of the Earth and moon. This sound silly and ridiculous at first, but the truth about it is far from it. You see, the moon is a hollow space station that is set in its location to observe and protect planet Earth from other intruding alien species. What I mean is the moon is hollow and can easily fly away if the alien species who control it so wish. But it was placed there long ago, in order to watch over the planet and keep other alien species from thinking that they can take it from them. Yes, Earth is unique a little bit and there is a high demand in the universe for life capable surface habitats. It does take a bit of time for aliens to create, so they do look after their territories well or they will lose them. What aliens live on the moon? Well...only one way to tell for sure...is to contact them. Sadly no attempts have ever been made to contacts aliens on the moon. Instead we aim our radio telescopes to planets systems that are 40 million light years away. And by the time those messages are found...the only thing left of us...is dust. Scott C. Waring - Taiwan
I found a dark tower on the moon today using the LROC moon map at Arizona State University. The online program reveals a lot about the moon that they don't teach you in any classroom, unless you are in my classroom. I am a ESL teacher in Taiwan and yes, I tell kids the truth. That aliens exist.
This structure is very big and again...is not just a structure, but a mobile structure. Much like a mobile home can move from place to place...so can these structures. Makes them much more useful. Why oh why do they abandon them in craters so often? Well it sure makes them easier to find for anyone searching for parts. Like humans...even aliens like to recycle...so leaving the ship out for others to use is considered both recycling and helping to all species who need it.
Mysterious Glowing Sphere Caught on Video in North Carolina
Mysterious Glowing Sphere Caught on Video in North Carolina
A short video of a light circular object passing the skies of North Carolina Beach has made the rounds online.
A couple took the footage as they were boating off the coast of America on May 16. Both saw a bizarre glowing sphere object similar to reported UFOs spotted in both New York and Colorado in the past.
In the clip, the object is easily recognized against the bright blue sky and appears to move slowly in front of the clouds. According to the eyewitnesses, the UFO also had a dark circle or spot in the middle.
A witness is heard explaining in the video saying that the object seems to rise above and drop below the clouds in around the same spot for hours.
According to UFO enthusiasts who have watched the video, the object is possibly an alien orb surveillance drone that has come into Earth’s atmosphere to observe our response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Legendary Emerald Tablet and its Secrets of the Universe
The Legendary Emerald Tablet and its Secrets of the Universe
The origins of Western alchemy can be traced back to Hellenistic Egypt, in particular to the city of Alexandria. One of the most important characters in the mythology of alchemy is Hermes Trismegistus (Hermes the Thrice-Great). The name of this figure is derived from the Egyptian god of wisdom, Thoth, and his Greek counterpart, Hermes. The Hermetica, which is said to be written by Hermes Trismegistus, is generally regarded as the basis of Western alchemical philosophy and practice. In addition, Hermes Trismegistus is also believed to be the author of the Emerald Tablet.
Legends of the Emerald Tablet
The Emerald Tablet is said to be a tablet of emerald or green stone inscribed with the secrets of the universe. The source of the original Emerald Tablet is unclear; hence it is surrounded by legends. The most common story claims that the tablet was found in a caved tomb under the statue of Hermes in Tyana, clutched in the hands of the corpse of Hermes Trismegistus himself.
And the creator of the Emerald Tablet has been provided in myth as the Egyptian god Thoth, who Armando Mei writes “divided his knowledge into 42 plates of emerald, codifying the great scientific principles ruling the Universe. The legend tells that after the gods’ fall, the Hermetic tablets were cleverly hidden so that no human being might find them. Only Thoth, on his return to that dimension, was able to recover the mysterious book.”
Another legend suggests that it was the third son of Adam and Eve , Seth, who originally wrote it. Others believed that the tablet was once held within the Ark of the Covenant . Some even claim that the original source of the Emerald Tablet is none other than the fabled city of Atlantis.
While various claims have been made regarding the origins of the Emerald Tablet, as yet no verifiable evidence has been found to support them. The oldest documentable source of the Emerald Tablet’s text is the Kitab sirr al-haliqi (Book of the Secret of Creation and the Art of Nature), which was itself a composite of earlier works.
This was an Arabic work written in the 8th century AD and attributed to ‘Balinas’ or Pseudo-Apollonius of Tyana. It is Balinas who provides us with the story of how he discovered the Emerald Tablet in the caved tomb. Based on this Arabic work, some believe that the Emerald Tablet was also an Arabic text and written between the 6th and 8th centuries AD, rather than a piece of work from Antiquity, as many have claimed.
While Balinas claimed that the Emerald Tablet was written originally in Greek, the original document that he purportedly possessed no longer exists, if indeed it existed at all. Some say the text burned up in the Library of Alexandria . Nevertheless, Balinas’ version of the text itself quickly became well-known, and has been translated by various people over the centuries.
For instance, an early version of the Emerald Tablet also appeared in a work called the Kitab Ustuqus al-Uss al-Thani (Second Book of the Elements of the Foundation), which is attributed to Jabir ibn Hayyan. It would, however, take several more centuries before the text was accessible to Europeans. In the 12th century AD, the Emerald Tablet was translated into Latin by Hugo von Santalla.
The Emerald Tablet would become one of the pillars of Western alchemy. It was a highly influential text in medieval and Renaissance alchemy, and probably still is today. In addition to translations of the Emerald Tablet, numerous commentaries have also been written regarding its contents.
For instance, a translation by Isaac Newton was discovered among his alchemical papers. This translation is currently being held in King’s College Library in Cambridge University. Other notable researchers of the Emerald Tablet include Roger Bacon , Albertus Magnus, John Dee , and Aleister Crowley . And today knowledge of the legendary Emerald Tablet (at least one interpretation of it ) is reaching new audiences with its presence in the surreal German-language series Dark.
An imaginative 17th century depiction of the Emerald Tablet from the work of Heinrich Khunrath, 1606.
The interpretation of the Emerald Text is not a straightforward matter, as it is after all a piece of esoteric text . One interpretation, for instance, suggests that the text describes seven stages of alchemical transformation – calcination, dissolution, separation, conjunction, fermentation, distillation and coagulation. Yet, despite the various interpretations available, it seems that none of their authors claim to possess knowledge of the whole truth. Furthermore, readers are encouraged to read the text and try to interpret and find the hidden truths themselves.

Just five years ago, who could have predicted that The New York Times would become the main mainstream source of UFO revelations – putting pressure on government officials to reveal what’s in secret files on sightings? Or that three eccentric billionaires would replace both the U.S. and Russia in transporting people, cargo and satellites into space? In 2016, those predictions might have been classified as ‘weird’, yet they happened and we now consider them to be the ‘new’ normal. Now, a new kind of weird has come to the space race that once again involves The New York Times and the three eccentric billionaires, Will we look back in 2026 and change our minds once again?
“Fields of Watermelons Found on Mars, Police Say.”
“Authorities say rise of fruit aliens is to blame for glut of outer space watermelons. The FBI declined to comment on reports of watermelons raining down, but confirmed that kiwis have been intercepted.”
Martian watermelon?
That was the headline and the lede of an online article which appeared on The New York Times website yesterday, June 8. While this was also a day the Internet suffered some massive outages, they were not related to the Martian watermelon announcement in the NYT. The article was written by ‘Joe Schmoe’, an obvious pseudonym, but it still reverberated throughout both the UFO and mainstream media before it was quickly taken down and replaced with the message “This article was published in error.” Was it? A Times spokesperson told The New York Post in an e-mail, “Earlier today, a mock article intended for a testing system was published on our site in error. The article has since been removed.” Will this hurt the credibility of The New York Times in the UFO disclosure movement?
Meanwhile, the website Parabolicarc.com reported that Sir Richard Branson, founder of Virgin Galactic (not to mention other Virgin companies) is working on a plan to make a suborbital flight aboard one of his VSS Unity SpaceShipTwo rocket planes over the July 4 holiday weekend, beating rival Jeff Bezos’ flight in HIS Blue Origins New Shepard spaceship on July 20 by over two weeks. At the time Parabolicarc.com broke the story, its anonymous source said the flight is contingent upon obtaining an operator’s license from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). That quickly prompted this response from a Virgin Galactic spokesperson:
“We are in the process of analyzing the data from our successful May 22nd flight. As previously announced, we expect to complete the final test flights this summer through to early fall. At this time, we have not determined the date of our next flight. An objective from the last flight was to collect data to be used for the final two verification reports that are required as part of the current FAA commercial reusable spacecraft operator’s license.”
You need a license? You also need a working spaceship. VSS Unity and its VMS Eve WhiteKnightTwo mothership would have only 44 days to get space ready, less than the 72 days it normally takes. Besides a license and a space-worthy ship, you also need the right altitude. Bezos plans to reach 100 km (62.1 miles), the ‘Karman line’ – the boundary of space recognized by The Fédération Aéronautique Internationale, the world’s keeper of aviation and space records. The FAA recognizes 50 miles (80.4 km) as the boundary of space. VSS Unity has made three flights above 50 km, but has not yet hit 100 km and there’s some question whether it can reach that height. Finally, VSS Unity and VMS Eve are still in their test phase and are expected to be upgraded before starting commercial lights next year. Would Sir Richard risk his project (and possibly his life) just to win the space billionaire entrepreneur race with Jeff Bezos?
Has Elon Musk weighed in yet? How about Matt Damon? Would a lifetime supply of Martian watermelons be an appropriate billionaire wager?
Located within the Chihuahuan Desert in northeastern Presidio County of far West Texas is the dusty desert city of Marfa. Founded as a water stop in the early 1880s, Marfa sits like an oasis surrounded by sprawling desolate desert, but despite its inhospitable location it has become a sort of center for minimalist art, and is known for its galleries, artisan shops, and historical architecture. Yet the town has become famous for something else as well, and here out in the desert badlands there has long been a mysterious, possibly paranormal light show that has never really been explained.
Marfa, Texas
What have come to be known as the Marfa Lights typically appear as orbs of light about the size of a basketball, that materialize out in the desert wasteland of Mitchell Flat looking towards the Chinati Mountains, to hover, fly, and dance about in the night before vanishing. They come in many colors, including white, yellow, pink, blue, and red, and can be very bright or faint, steadily illuminated or twinkling or flickering. The lights feature a wide range of movement and behaviors, either flying in a straight line or conversely bobbing up and down, darting about erratically, doing aerial acrobatics, accelerating or decelerating, or even merging together into larger orbs or disappearing and reappearing. They sometimes move slowly, at other times hovering stationary, or on other occasions travelling at great speed, often all of the above. One local by the name of James Bunnell has said of the Marfa Lights:
You might just see mysterious orbs of light suddenly appear above desert foliage. These balls of light may remain stationary as they pulse on and off with intensity varying from dim to almost blinding brilliance. Then again, these ghostly lights may dart across the desert or perform splits and mergers. Light colors are usually yellow-orange but other hues, including green, blue and red are also seen. Marfa Mystery Lights usually fly above desert vegetation but below background mesas.
The lights also don’t seem to follow any rhyme or reason to their appearances, emerging at all times of the year and in all kinds of weather, and they have been baffling those who see them for a very long time. Although the Native Americans had long known of the lights, perhaps the first historical record of the Marfa lights by settlers was in 1883, when a rancher named Robert Reed Ellison reported seeing a group of glowing orbs as he drove his cattle through Paisano Pass. He assumed that they were Apache campfires, but no evidence of any fires or campsites could be found the following day. After that, more and more people began reporting the mysterious lights, and over the decades there would be so many sightings that during World War II there was even an air search conducted by pilots from nearby Midland Army Air Field to find the source of the lights, but they came back empty-handed and puzzled. On some occasions there have been reports that the lights seem to show some sort of intelligence, sometimes coming closer as if out of curiosity or seeming to investigate certain areas, or to react to sound, and there are even stories of people lost in the desert being led to safety by the lights. But what are they and where do they come from? That depends a lot on who you ask.
There have been numerous theories as to what the lights may be. One is that they are some sort of atmospheric phenomenon, in particular one called a Fata Morgana, which is an optical illusion that causes far away objects to appear closer and distorted through light passing through air layers of different temperatures in a steep thermal inversion, in which a defined layer of warm air is resting on a layer of much cooler air. Another idea is that these are the similarly distorted lights car headlights on the nearby Highway 67, made to look fuzzy and wavering by light scattering due to the air being unevenly heated by the ground, but this would not explain why they are most often seen well away from the highway, why they display such erratic and aberrant movements, why they have so many different appearances, or how they would have been seen so much back in 1883. Other ideas include static electricity produced by geological activity, ball lighting, illuminated gases from the natural gas and other petroleum hydrocarbons in the area, and of course alien UFOs and even ghosts, perhaps even all of the above. No one really knows for sure.
In the meantime, Marfa has embraced the lights and sought to turn them into a tourist attraction. There is a roadside parking area nine miles east of Marfa on U.S. Highway 90 specifically built for passing motorists to view the curious phenomenon, complete with a Marfa Lights viewing platform, and there is even an annual Marfa Lights Festival that features live music, food and a parade. What is going on with these lights? What are they? Are they just distant car headlights morphed into something more mysterious by atmospheric phenomena or are at least some of them something stranger? For now the Marfa lights still occasionally come out to do their dance, and no one is entirely sure of what they truly are.
In the last couple of years we’ve seen more and more information coming out of the U.S. government on the matter of UFOs. In fact, it’s practically impossible to avoid the incredible amount of UFO data that has been pouring out lately. But, some may be wondering, when was it that the government really got involved in the matters of UFOs and Flying Saucers? Let’s take a look. It was in the summer of 1947 that the UFO controversy began. On June 24, 1947 a pilot named Kenneth Arnold encountered a squadron of strange-looking, boomerang-like aircraft flying near Mt. Rainier, Washington State. As an experienced pilot, Arnold was puzzled by the fact that he was unable to figure out what, exactly, the craft were. On landing, Arnold shared his story with the media and told them that the objects flew like a saucer skimmed across a body of water – in a kind of up and down motion. In literally only hours, the term “Flying Saucer” was coined. The big irony is that the “Saucer” part came from Arnold’s observation of how the object flew, rather than their shape.

The U.S. military quickly moved to investigate the case, as well as a wave of quite literally hundreds of additional sightings throughout the remainder of 1947 and into 1948. Thus was born the government’s first UFO program, Project Sign. Interestingly, Project Sign staff concluded that there really was a UFO phenomenon, but they were unable to state with any degree of accuracy what the objects actually were. Theories posited by Sign personnel included Russian craft, and the creations of a secret group within the U.S. Government. Some of the Sign staff favored the extraterrestrial hypothesis. In 1948, Project Sign was replaced with Project Grudge. Just like Sign, Grudge had its personnel who championed the alien angle, while others suggested military aircraft of some kind – and either the product of Uncle Sam or the Soviets. Certainly, the most well-known of all the UFO programs was Project Blue Book.
Let’s see what the government says about all this:
“On December 17, 1969, the Secretary of the Air Force announced the termination of Project Blue Book, the Air Force program for the investigation of UFOs. From 1947 to 1969, a total of 12, 618 sightings were reported to Project Blue Book. Of these 701 remain ‘Unidentified.’ The project was headquartered at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, whose personnel no longer receive, document or investigate UFO reports. The decision to discontinue UFO investigations was based on an evaluation of a report prepared by the University of Colorado entitled, ‘Scientific Study of Unidentified Flying Objects;’ a review of the University of Colorado’s report by the National Academy of Sciences; past UFO studies and Air Force experience investigating UFO reports during the 40s, ’50s, and ’60s.”
The Air Force continues: “As a result of these investigations and studies and experience gained from investigating UFO reports since 1948, the conclusions of Project Blue Book are:(1) no UFO reported, investigated, and evaluated by the Air Force has ever given any indication of threat to our national security;(2) there has been no evidence submitted to or discovered by the Air Force that sightings categorized as “unidentified” represent technological developments or principles beyond the range of present-day scientific knowledge; and(3) there has been no evidence indicating that sightings categorized as “unidentified” are extraterrestrial vehicles. With the termination of Project Blue Book, the Air Force regulations establishing and controlling the program for investigating and analyzing UFOs were rescinded. Documentation regarding the former Blue Book investigation has been permanently transferred to the Military Reference Branch, National Archives and Records Administration, Washington, DC 20408, and is available for public review and analysis.””
There is also this from the Air Force: “Since Project Blue Book was closed, nothing has happened to indicate that the Air Force ought to resume investigating UFOS. Because of the considerable cost to the Air Force in the past, and the tight funding of Air Force needs today, there is no likelihood the Air Force will become involved with UFO investigation again. There are a number of universities and professional scientific organizations, such as the American Association for the Advancement of Science, which have considered UFO phenomena during periodic meetings and seminars. In addition, a list of private organizations interested in aerial phenomena may be found in Gale’s Encyclopedia of Associations (edition 8, vol-. 1, pp. 432-433). Such timely review of the situation by private groups ensures that sound evidence will not be overlooked by the scientific community. A person calling the base to report a UFO is advised to contact a private or professional organization (as mentioned above) or to contact a local law enforcement agency if the caller feels his or public safety is endangered.”
And, finally, there is this from the Air Force: “Periodically, it is erroneously stated that the remains of extraterrestrial visitors are or have been stored at Wright-Patterson AFB. There are not now nor ever have been, any extraterrestrial visitors or equipment on Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.” This last piece, of course, is a nod to the notorious “Roswell UFO crash” of July 1947, and claims that strange bodies found outside of Roswell were secretly sent to Wright-Patterson for analysis and autopsy. Of course, since the Air Force wrote this summary, there have been a great deal of new developments. No doubt, and particularly in this period of strange uncertainty we’re in right now, it’s highly likely we’ll see far more and more revelations surfacing soon.
Scientists in a Russian lab have brought back to life miniature “zombies” that were frozen about 3.5 meters (11.5 feet) beneath the Siberian permafrost for 24,000 years (in the Alazeya River). These multicellular microscopic creatures, which are called bdelloid rotifers (or wheel animals), have been living in freshwater locations for approximately 50 million years.
Rotifers have miniature hair-like features called a cilia ring that circles its mouth. They have a lorica around their body for protection as well as a foot. Their tiny organs include a brain, eye-spot, jaw, kidneys, stomach, and urinary bladder.
In previous studies, researchers confirmed that rotifers could be frozen at a temperature of minus 4 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 20 degrees Celsius) and then brought back to life 10 years after. While that is incredible, the most recent study produced even more jaw-dropping results as the researchers were able to bring back the rotifers that were alive during the Pleistocene Epoch and were frozen for 24,000 years. When these creatures were thawed out, they started reproducing asexually through parthenogenesis and even created genetic duplicate clones.
The rotifers were found in Siberian permafrost.
In an email to Live Science, Stas Malavin, who is a researcher at the Institute of Physicochemical and Biological Problems in Soil Science in Pushchino, Russia, explained their experiment in more detail, “We put a piece of permafrost into a Petri dish filled with [a] suitable medium and wait until organisms that are alive recover from their dormancy, start moving, and multiply.” After they cloned themselves, they were so genetically identical that the researchers could not tell the difference between the new and old ones.
The fact that this creature was resuscitated from a suspended metabolic state (called cryptobiosis) is astonishing but actually quite normal for rotifers as they have evolved to be able to use cryptobiosis because of where they live – the waters could dry up or freeze over. Furthermore, they can restore any DNA that may get harmed and can protect their cells from damaging molecules. The study was published in the journal Current Biology where it can be read in full.
Pictures and a video of the rotifer can be seen here.
