Stunning Photos from Air, Space and Ground of the Atlas V GOES-T Launch
Stunning Photos from Air, Space and Ground of the Atlas V GOES-T Launch
NASA and NOAA now have a sophisticated new weather satellite in space. The GOES-T satellite launched on the powerful United Launch Alliance (ULA) Atlas V rocket on March 1, and it will provide forecasters with high resolution weather satellite imagery. It will also providing real-time monitoring of events on the ground like wildfires, floods and landslides, while monitoring atmospheric and climate dynamics over the Western US and Pacific Ocean.
The liftoff from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station of GOES-T (Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite-T) provided stunning views, and incredibly, other satellites looked down and captured the launch of the new satellite from space, such as this shot from its older sibling, GOES-16:
More satellite views of the launch below, but first, photographer Mike Killian took part in a stunning photo shoot from the air, capturing a the launch in the background while a restored F-86 Sabre jet flew over the Space Coast:
A few more of the GOES satellites already in high geosynchronous orbits looked down on the launch:
And of course, there are always amazing views from the ground. Above, Manuel Mazzati focused his high-resolution camera on the flames from the rocket just after liftoff.
Alan Walters attended the launch on behalf of Universe Today and caught these gems:

And you can always count on Ben Cooper for a unique launch perspective:
For the full experience, here’s a video of the launch via NASA:
The launch placed GOES-T in a high perigee orbit of over 8,000 km (~ 5,000 miles). Its final orbital position in geosynchronous orbit will be just over 35,000 km (22,000 miles) above Earth’s equator.
“The Atlas V delivered GOES-T directly to a geosynchronous transfer orbit,” said Gary Wentz, ULA vice president of Government and Commercial Programs, in a press release. “The orbital delivery accurately placed the spacecraft closer to its final destination which conserves the satellite’s fuel supply and enables a longer mission life.”
Once it reaches its final orbit, the satellite will undergo commissioning and checkouts over the next few months and be fully operational by early 2023. It joins four other GOES satellites currently in service, GOES-14, -15, -16 and -17. Once in service, the new satellite will be renamed GOES-18 and it will take over for GOES-17, which launched on another Atlas 5 exactly four years ago. GOES-17 has had problems with its main weather instrument, but it will remain in orbit as a backup in case any other of the GOES weather satellites encounters any problems in the future.
This was the 92nd launch of an Atlas V rocket, and ULA says they have launched 149 times with 100 percent mission success.

Possible UFO Landing Site Found In Canada Forest, March 1, 2022, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Possible UFO Landing Site Found In Canada Forest, March 1, 2022, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of discovery: March 1, 2022
Location of discovery: Canada
A triangle formation was found in the snow in Canada this week. The formation was out in the woods and was found as the person was taking a walk in the snow. He found a perfect triangle, which could be the landing spot of an alien craft. From the size of the triangle, the craft would be big enough to hold two people. Aliens have been known to land their craft in forests. Take for instance, the "Fire In The Sky," case back in 1975, where Travis Walton was in the forest with friends and saw a light...he walked closer to the light coming from the UFO and suddenly the light threw Travis through the air...his friends fled. UFOs visit forests.
Glowing Orb Over Hamburg, Germany, March 2, 2022, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Glowing Orb Over Hamburg, Germany, March 2, 2022, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: March 2, 2022
Location of sighting:Hamburg, Germany
An eyewitness in Germany today recorded an bright orb over Hamburg this morning. The object is huge and looks similar in shape to the UFOs seen over Denver, USA and over Dome of Rock, Jerusalem. Although this UFO was not seen moving, often they shoot quickly into a location and sit there, knowing that most people who see it will assume it's just a star. Yeah, aliens know all the tricks. They have been hiding from us for thousands of years. Also is seems to flash, as if it were saying hello to the woman watching.
This orb is reminding me of the days of the foo fighter orbs that followed the planes in WWII. This UFO could be a sign that Germany is going to have a serious involvement in the war in Ukraine in the coming days. I just checked in the news...the German Chancellor expressed their support for Ukraine in a joint news conference on March 1. This makes me think that aliens are helping humanity exist.
NASA rover this week took a close up photo of a actual fossil on Mars. They didn't label it as such, however the similarities to sponge and coral fossils is undeniable. I really am confused at why NASA did not take about this discovery other than give us some details of the camera that took, the date, location on Mars. It really seems that something like this...that is 100% proof of ancient ocean life, is an important discovery to all of science. And yet, NASA says nothing about it. There is no doubt in my mind that had this been found on Earth, it would be labeled a sponge fossil. How could NASA not comment on such a huge discovery? Why oh why didn't NASA announce this to the public themselves? So many questions...but they are all about NASAs refusal to admit life on Mars once existed.
Europe’s ExoMars Rover Will Likely Miss This Year’s Launch Window Because of Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine
Europe’s ExoMars Rover Will Likely Miss This Year’s Launch Window Because of Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine
As countries around the world respond to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine with sanctions aimed at crippling Moscow and Vladimir Putin, the global cooperation in space exploration that has been forged over the past 30-plus years will certainly be impacted.
One example: the European Space Agency said the launch of the ExoMars 2022 mission, scheduled for September of this year, is “very unlikely,” due to sanctions on Russia. ExoMars is supposed to launch on a Russian Proton rocket from the Baikonur Cosmodrome. Russia is also supposed to supply the landing and science platform for the Rosalind Franklin rover, and if the conflict continues, the oft-delayed mission will likely have to wait for the next launch window to Mars in 2024.
In a statement issued by ESA, officials said, “We deplore the human casualties and tragic consequences of the war in Ukraine. We are giving absolute priority to taking proper decisions, not only for the sake of our workforce involved in the programmes, but in full respect of our European values, which have always fundamentally shaped our approach to international cooperation.”
“We are fully implementing sanctions imposed on Russia by our Member States,” the statement continued. “We are assessing the consequences on each of our ongoing programmes conducted in cooperation with the Russian state space agency Roscosmos and align our decisions to the decisions of our Member States in close coordination with industrial and international partners (in particular with NASA on the International Space Station).”
Meanwhile, the head of the Russian agency appears to be burning every bridge that’s been built with various space entities around the world. In a series of bizarre rants on Twitter over the past several days, Dmitry Rogozin, head of Roscosmos, suggested future Atlas 5 launched by ULA (United Launch Alliance) will fail because they won’t have technical support for the Russian components on the rockets. Rogozin even said that the sanctions could result in the International Space Station crashing into the U.S., Europe, India, or China. He erroneously said the ISS doesn’t fly over Russia, “so all the risks are yours.”

Officially, Roscosmos announced it was suspending cooperation with Europe on Soyuz launches from the European spaceport in French Guiana (CSG), and they have removed Russian personnel from the site. That will likely delay several upcoming launches scheduled to launch on a Soyuz rocket from CSG, including two pairs of Galileo navigational satellites, Euclid, a visible to near-infrared space telescope scheduled to launch in early 2023, the EarthCARE (Earth Clouds, Aerosols and Radiation Explorer) satellite, a cooperative effort between ESA and Japan’s space agency JAXA to improve understanding of the cloud and aerosol processes that affect the Earth’s climate. Other governmental satellites are in the queue as well.
The indication of threats to the ISS are most concerning since humans are on board. During a press briefing on February 28, Kathy Lueders, NASA associate administrator for space operations, said ISS operations have not been affected by the sanctions so far.

“We are not getting any indications, at a working level, that our counterparts are not committed to ongoing operation of the International Space Station,” she said. “We’re operating just like we were operating three weeks ago. Our teams are still talking together, we’re still doing training together, we’re still working together.”
Lueders added that, “It would be a sad day for international operations that we can’t continue to peacefully operate in space,” and that it would be very difficult to operate the ISS without the international cooperation that the project was founded on.
“I actually feel like this is a good message for us – that we are operating peacefully in space now and moving forward,” she said, but added, “That said, we always look for how do we get more operational flexibility.”
In an signal of that, NASA said they are discussing cargo and crew transportation options with Northrop Grumman and SpaceX, and in an announcement late yesterday, NASA announced they have awarded SpaceX additional crew flights to the space station.

UFO Spotted While At Work In Calhoun, Georgia Feb 24, 2022, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: Feb24, 2022
Location of sighting: Calhoun, Georgia, USA
Wow! Check out this fantastic raw footage of some guys who were at work and noticed a black triangle craft moving slowly over the area. A friend calls out to them to come outside and check out the UFO in the sky. When they get outside...they can't believe their own eyes. This black triangle object is moving in the sky, slowly, silently. This one is very far up and is twice the size of the average car. This looks really similar to the UFO video recorded by the US Navy plane and released to the public in 2020. This is only 180 miles away from US President Jimmy Carters UFO sighting at Leary, Georgia when he saw a UFO when he was governor of Georgia back in 1969. That UFO was time traveling...visiting a US president before he was president. So...I wonder...what if this is the same exact UFO...and its there to visit someone important, but at an easier point in their life? Maybe a future president in this video.

Eyewitness states:
UfO spotted at work by my friend Nate, I started filming using a iPhone.The city is Calhoun, the state is Georgia. I’m just trying to find someone to analyze this video. The original is on my phone and it’s ever more bizarre when you zoom in on it.
Mummified 'Mermaid' to be analyzed by Japanese Scientists
Mummified 'Mermaid' to be analyzed by Japanese Scientists
A“mermaid mummy” kept at a temple has been an object of worship.Now, for the first time, a project has started to scientifically analyze the mummified creature, which has the upper body of a human and the lower body of a fish.
On Feb. 2, 2022 Kozen Kuida, 60, chief priest at Enjuin temple in Asakuchi in the prefecture, removed the 30-centimeter-long treasured specimen from a paulownia box in the CT scanning room of the university’s veterinary hospital.
Laying face up on an examination table, the mummy appeared to be locked in a scream while holding its hands to its mouth. In addition to nails and teeth, the mummy has hair on its head and scales on the lower body.
According to asahi.com, a note contained in the same box of the “dried mermaid,” the creature was caught in a fishing net on the coast of Tosa Province (present-day Kochi Prefecture) between 1736 and 1741.

An enhancement of a Roswell press photo reveals that the US government knew it was lying about the weather balloon and how they showed off this fact in plain sight.
It’s dangerous to say in a headline that an asteroid is heading towards Earth because asteroid trackers define ‘potentially hazardous objects’ (PHO) as an asteroid or a comet large enough to cause significant regional damage in the event of impact – but 99% of them won’t get close for at least 100 years and ‘close’ can be 0.05 astronomical units or 19.5 lunar distances away. That wasn’t the case in January 2022.
“In January this year, we became aware of an asteroid with the highest ranking on the Palermo scale that we’ve seen in more than a decade, reaching -1.5.”
Don’t warn them — did they warn us?
The Palermo Technical Impact Hazard Scale referred to in a recent press release by Marco Micheli, an astronomer at ESA’s Near-Earth Object Coordination Centre (NEOCC), assigns ratings to NEOs. Asteroid 2022 AE1 was above -2 which made it an object that merited serious monitoring. (Photo here.) Discovered on January 6, 2022, the first calculations showed it was 0.09 AU (13 million km or 8 million miles) from Earth, large enough to do damage, and having a serious possibility of making a potential Earth impact on July 4, 2023 – that’s next year!
Asteroid 2022 AE1 observed with the Calar Alto Schmidt telescope in Spain on the evening of 19 January 2022. The image is a composite of 124 frames, each one minute long, combined on the motion of the asteroid, and processed in order to remove the background stars. The asteroid is visible as the dot at the center of the image, inside the red box. Stack produced using Tycho.

“In my almost ten years at ESA I’ve never seen such a risky object.”
Micheli sounded the alarm and all NEO-watching eyes focused on 2022 AE1 for the next seven days as it was flagged by the Asteroid Orbit Determination (AstOD) automated system flagged it for a potential future impact. Astronomers watched as the risk potential increased daily until the seventh day when 2022 AE1 … disappeared. Wait … what?
“We just had to wait.”
The Moon entered a waxing gibbous phase – growing to full moon status while just 3 degrees from the asteroid – and basically blinded those trying to observe 2022 AE1. Finally, the moon moved out of the way … and the astronomers experienced a shock.
“The data was clear, confirmed the next morning by our counterparts at NASA—asteroid 2022 AE1 poses no impact risk.”
That’s right — 2022 AE1 went from full “Don’t Look Up” to “move along, nothing to see here” in seven short days. Recalibrating the numbers, the forecast is for 2022 AE1 to fly by Earth in July 2023 at a distance of about ten million km (6.2 million miles) or over 20 times the distance of the moon. What happened?
“As is often the case, the overlap with Earth remains even while the risk corridor gets smaller due to further observations and so the risk appears to increase. More often than not, as the hazard zone narrows, the small potential corridor moves off Earth and the risk suddenly drops.”
The “risk corridor” is the moving spotlight on Earth where the asteroid is most likely to hit. That spotlight is recalculated each time a new reading is taken on the asteroid — the spotlight gets smaller as it hones in on the target area. However, it can also move … and that’s what happened to 2022AE1 while the lights were out. Luca Conversi, Manager of the NEOCC, says this actually happens all the time.
“Yet, I wasn’t too concerned as we get notifications like this – though at a lower level – a few times per year.”
Well, that’s reassuring … NOT!
Initial uncertainties in asteroid 2022 AE1’s orbit meant its ‘risk corridor’ extended across Earth. When the 70-metre asteroid seemed most likely to impact (a scenario now ruled out entirely), its possible path saw a potential strike over many inhabited regions on Earth. The red region forms the core of the more probable impact points, the orange surrounding bands show areas that were less likely but could not be excluded.
Cosmic shock! Astronomers create detailed images of the largest shockwave in the universe, finding it is 6.5 MILLION light years across - about 60 times larger than the Milky Way
Cosmic shock! Astronomers create detailed images of the largest shockwave in the universe, finding it is 6.5 MILLION light years across - about 60 times larger than the Milky Way
Astronomers made use of the MeerKAT radio telescope array in South Africa
They were able to capture images of the massive cosmic shockwave Abell 3667
These shockwaves are produced from the collision of two large galaxy clusters
These clusters can hold up to thousands of galaxies, each with billions of stars
When they collide it produces the largest events since the start of the universe
A massive cosmic shockwave, stretching 6.5 million light years across, has been studied by a team of astronomers, explaining it is the largest visible from Earth.
These gigantic shock waves are larger than our entire galaxy, and form when clusters of galaxies collide, according to the researchers led by the University of Hamburg.
Our universe is populated by galaxies that are not uniformly spread but concentrated in vast structures, with the largest containing thousands of galaxies.
Sometimes, two galaxy clusters start attracting each other via the force of gravity, leading to an inevitable collision - generating spectacular 'fireworks' that can be observed using modern radio telescopes, such as MeerKAT in South Africa.
A pair of combined galaxy clusters produce cosmic shockwaves that travel through the newly formed cluster, and astronomers, led by the University of Hamburg in Germany, have produced images of the largest ever observed.
It originated from galaxy cluster Abell 3667, and can provide insights into the structure of shock waves and galactic clusters, according to the astronomers.

These gigantic shock waves are larger than our entire galaxy, and form when clusters of galaxies collide, according to the researchers led by the University of Hamburg
The two galaxy clusters that produced the gigantic shockwave came together about a billion years ago, producing one of the most energetic events since the Big Bang.
Modern radio telescopes can witness the propagation of a pair of gigantic shock waves, produced by the two galactic clusters, as they pass through the newly formed cluster, similar to the sonic booms from supersonic aircraft.
'These structures are full of surprises and much more complex than what we initially thought', said Professor Francesco de Gasperin, lead author of the study.
The shock waves act as giant particle accelerators, similar to the Large Hadron Collider, where electrons are sped up close to the speed of light.

When these fast electrons cross a magnetic field they emit the radio waves that we see from the Earth using telescopes like MeerKAT.
The shocks are threaded by an intricate pattern of bright filaments that trace the location of both giant magnetic field lines, and the regions where the electrons are accelerated within the wave.
These shock waves are still propagating through the galaxy cluster that formed from the collision at an incredible 932 miles per second, or 3.3 million miles per hour.
This means that the shock front would cross the entire Earth in the time needed to read this sentence, Prof de Gasperin explained.
The size of the main shock wave is impressive, spanning the entire width of the galaxy cluster for a total size of 6.5 million light years. For comparison, the Milky Way, the galaxy we live in, is more than 60 times smaller than this shock wave.
'The presence of the shocks in Abell 3667 is detected using sharp changes in the properties of the hot gas, traced by its X-ray emission,' added Professor Alexis Finoguenov at the University of Helsinki, who assisted the research by analysing the X-ray data, collected by the XMM-Newton observatory.
WHAT IS THE COSMIC WEB OF FILAMENTS THAT THE UNIVERSE IS MADE UP OF?
'Ordinary' matter, which makes up everything we can see, corresponds to only five per cent of the known universe. The rest is made up of so-called 'dark matter.'
For decades, at least half of this regular matter had eluded detection, but scientists have in recent years made the first direct observations of a 'cosmic web' of filaments spanning between galaxies.
These filaments are made up of gas at temperatures between 100,000°C (180,032 °F) and 10 million°C (50 million°F) and the experts believe these structures may account for the 'missing' ordinary matter.
Studies have estimated that around 95 per cent of the universe is made of a mixture of 'dark matter' and 'dark energy', which only makes its presence felt by its gravitational pull, but has never been seen directly.
What is less widely known, however, is that around half of the regular matter is also missing.
In 2015, a team led by University of Geneva scientist Dominique Eckert claimed that these 'missing baryons' - subatomic particles made up of three quarks - were detected because of their X-ray signature in a massive cluster of galaxies known as Abell 2744.
Using the XMM-Newton space telescope, the researchers found matter concentrated into a network of knots and links connected through vast filaments, known as the 'cosmic web'.
Large-scale galaxy surveys have shown that the distribution of ordinary matter in the universe is not homogeneous.
Instead, under the action of gravity, matter is concentrated into so-called filamentary structures, forming a network of knots and links called the 'cosmic web'.
The regions experiencing the highest gravitational force collapse and form the knots of the network, such as Abell 2744.
Researchers focused on Abell 2744 - a massive cluster of galaxies with a complex distribution of dark and luminous matter at its centre - to make their finding.
Comparable to neural networks, these knots then connect to one another through filaments, where the researchers identified the presence of gas, and consequently, the missing ordinary matter thought to make up the universe.
Astronomers see an Enormous Shockwave, 60 Times Bigger Than the Milky Way
Astronomers see an Enormous Shockwave, 60 Times Bigger Than the Milky Way
Astronomers have a thing for big explosions and collisions, and it always seems like they are trying to one-up themselves in finding a bigger, brighter one. There’s a new entrant to that category – an event so big it created a burst of particles over 1 billion years ago that is still visible today and is 60 times bigger than the entire Milky Way.
That shockwave was created by the merger of two galaxy clusters to create a supercluster known as Abell 3667. This was one of the most energetic events in the universe since the Big Bang, according to calculations by Professor Francesco de Gasperin and his time from the University of Hamburg and INAF. When it happened over 200 million years ago, it shot out a wave of electrons, similar to how a particle accelerator would. All these years later, those particles are still traveling at Mach 2.5 (1500 km / s), and when they pass through magnetic fields, they emit radio waves.

Those radio waves are what Dr. de Gasperin and his colleagues observed using a new telescope array in South Africa known as MeerKAT. Radio signals alone weren’t enough to characterize the shockwave itself, though – the XMM-Newton X-ray observatory also spent some time focused on Abell 3667.
The results of all those observations is a better understanding of the physics of the merger of these galaxy clusters, which were “much more complex than we initially thought,” said Dr. de Gasperin. The shockwaves themselves look like “filaments that trace the location of giant magnetic field lines.” What is clear from the pictures is that, even when scientists are simply looking for big collisions, the resulting radio images might be awe-inspiring in themselves.
Cosmic shock waves are created when clusters of galaxies collide. This image shows one of the two shock waves observed in the galaxy cluster Abell 3667. It is about 60 times the size of the Milky Way.
What’s Going on Inside a Black Hole? The Answers Could be Written on its Surface
What’s Going on Inside a Black Hole? The Answers Could be Written on its Surface
Both quantum computing and machine learning have been touted as the next big computer revolution for a fair while now. However, experts have pointed out that these techniques aren’t generalized tools – they will only be the great leap forward in computer power for very specialized algorithms, and even more rarely will they be able to work on the same problem. One such example of where they might work together is modeling the answer to one of the thorniest problems in physics: how does General Relativity relate to the Standard Model?
A team led by researchers at the University of Michigan and RIKEN think they might have developed just such an algorithm. There aren’t many places where the two great physics models collide, but around a black hole is one of them. Black holes themselves are massive gravity wells ruled entirely by the physics defined by General Relativity. However, innumerable particles are swirling around their event horizons that are effectively immune to gravity but do fall under the Standard Model structure, which deals directly with the physics of particles.
There has been a long-standing theory that the motions and accelerations of the particles directly above a black hole might be a two-dimension projection of what the black hole itself is doing in three dimensions. This concept is called holographic duality and might offer a way to look for that critical interface between relativity (i.e., black hole physics) and the Standard model (i.e., particle physics).
UT video discussing the Holographic Principle
Holographic duality itself is challenging to model with modern-day computing algorithms, though. So Enrico Rinaldi, a physicist at the University of Michigan and RIKEN, attempted to develop a new model that utilized those two very hyped computing architectures – quantum computing and machine learning.
Quantum computing itself can be helpful in modeling particle physics, as some of the physics underlying the computing platform itself are subject to those physical laws that are so foreign to us at a macro scale. In this case, Dr. Rinaldi and his team used an algorithm running on a quantum computer to simulate the particles that make up the project part of the holographic duality.
To do so, they utilized a concept called a quantum matrix model. As with many physics simulations, the end goal of the simulation was to find the lowest energy state of the system. Quantum matrix models would help effectively solve the optimization problems that would find the lowest energy state of the particle systems projected above a black hole.

Algorithms utilizing a quantum computer aren’t the only way to find those “ground states,” as the lowest energy state of the system is called. Another method would be to utilize a type of AI technique called a neural network. These are based around using systems similar to those found in human brains.
The team applied these algorithms to a type of matrix model still based on quantum ideas but not requiring quantum computing. Known as a quantum wave function, these again represented the activity of the particles on the surface of the black hole. And once again, the neural network algorithm was able to solve the optimization problem and find its “ground state.”
According to Rinaldi, these new techniques represent a significant improvement upon other previous efforts at solving these algorithms. “Other methods people typically use can find the energy of the ground state, but not the entire structure of the wave function,” Rinaldi said in a press release.

What this means for understanding the inside of a black hole, or the interface between the standard model and general relativity, is still a bit of a black box. Theoretically, there should be a way to model the inside of a black hole using the types of quantum wave functions defined by these algorithms. But that work, which could lead to an underlying quantum theory of gravity according to Rinaldi, remains to be done. As these hyped computing architectures continue to gain in popularity, though, it’s almost a certainty that someone will attempt to shine some light on that black box.
I found an arrow carved in the side of a stone in a Mars photo today. The arrow is big, about half a meter and its very deeply carved. The rock its on is looks similar to a Xbox controller, but its huge...about 2.5 meters across and 1.5 wide. It also has four other round and oval holes cut into it. It must have meaning. This seems similar to ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. One thing is for sure, it was created by intelligent life, because it's a language of the ancients.

Tic-Tac UFO Over Seoul, South Korea Feb 27, 2022, UFO Sighting News.
Tic-Tac UFO Over Seoul, South Korea Feb 27, 2022, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting:Feb 27, 2022 Location of sighting:Seoul, South Korea
The eyewitness was busy driving on a freeway in Seoul when he saw a white tic-tac UFO in the sky over him. He holds his phone the best he can while driving, catch some raw footage as proof of his sighting. The object has no tail, no wings, no window...and looks similar to that of a rocket more than anything else. The video is 100% authentic. I put it into slow motion to see if the UFO went behind or in front of the highway signs...it went behind. Had it gone in front I would know instantly it was fake, its not. This is 100% real UFO raw footage.

Awesome UFO Sighting During Sunset In Arizona, Feb 27, 2022, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: Feb 27, 2022
Location of sighting:Arizona, USA
This awesome catch happened in the desert of southern Arizona yesterday. A dark orb is hovering in the sky in a location where no city exists. No homes, no roads, no telephone poles...just pure Arizona desert. This is fantastic and I believe its along the Extra Terrestrial Freeway, a freeway known for its UFO sightings. OMG I love this one! Also the fact that it was caught during sunset, which really helps this UFO stand out. This eyewitness must have stopped his car and started recording it. He has a very steady hand, very focused phone. Perfectly recorded sighting. If we get more evidence like this...full disclosure of aliens will come sooner than you think.

Two huge UFOs enter Mount Fuji Volcano On Feb 27, 2022, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting:Feb 27, 2022
Location of sighting: Mount Fuji, Japan
Watch this great catch on a live cam by a UFO hunter that goes by the name of "Rafael Navarro Ferrari," on Youtube. He caught not one, but two huge craft falling from the sky and into the mouth area of Mount Fuji. I often say that UFO bases are created in places that are difficult or dangerous for humans to get there. Here again is such a place, Mount Fuji has an alien base 5-6km below the surface. Absolute fantastic catch! 100% proof that aliens exist.
Low Flying UFO Cloaked In Cloud Seen Over Indonesia, Feb 27, 2022, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Low Flying UFO Cloaked In Cloud Seen Over Indonesia, Feb 27, 2022, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: Feb 27, 2022
Location of sighting: Indonesia
Most people overlook such clouds like this...however this is more than just a cloud. Its a 1/2 km alien ship cloaked in a cloud. UFOs often create such clouds around themselves to hide from the public. The lower they fly, the higher the need to hide. This UFO is flying very low over the city and looks like they are scanning the inhabitants for information or tapping into communication networks.
Awesome capture. Absolute proof aliens are watching!
