Roswell UFO Conspiracy: Unlocked (FULL MOVIE)
Roswell UFO Conspiracy: Unlocked (FULL MOVIE)
The Roswell UFO incident, which occurred in the New Mexican desert in 1947, remains the most well-known and debated UFO case in history. Many people believe that the crash was evidence of humanity’s first contact with extraterrestrial life. However, the truth behind the incident has been shrouded in secrecy and controversy for decades.
Leaked CIA memos and statements from ex-military officers have hinted at a government cover-up, leading many to believe that top secret information was kept from the public. Despite these efforts, the truth cannot be kept hidden forever and the mystery of the Roswell UFO incident continues to captivate and puzzle people to this day.
A 2020 documentary film about the Roswell UFO incident, “Roswell UFO Conspiracy: Unlocked,” was recently released on YouTube for free. This film offers a new perspective on the famous case and provides further insight into the shocking and complicated mystery that spans decades and continents.

Nasa Detects New Alien Life Radio Signals From Outer Space
Space is full of the known and the unknown! However, the unknown far outweighs the known, and we continually get baffled by phenomenons that, try as may, we cannot explain! Thanks to sophisticated equipment and sound data interpretation, we can detect many strange things, even though we struggle to explain them or their origin! The latest discovery that has left even the best NASA scientists scratching their heads is a series of strange radio signals emanating from space! What are these strange radio signals? Are they coming from intelligent aliens trying to establish communication with us? And how do they affect your everyday life? Join us as we dive deep into the strange radio signals coming from space that NASA just detected! Sitting in a cozy, well-lit room on Earth, space might look like a serene place where you can enjoy solitude, unlike the hustle and bustle of the big cities down here. However, that perception could not be more wrong! One of the most common is radio emissions because they come from basically everywhere! From planets and stars, exotic objects like pulsars and black holes, galaxies. Radio emissions even come from human technology. So, at any point in time, radio waves are emanating from uncountable sources! Despite the many possible sources, astronomers have detected new and unusual radio wave signals, unlike any found before! The radio waves fit no currently understood patterns of variable radio sources but are coming from the direction of the center of our Milky Way galaxy! The discovery was made using the ASKAP radio telescope. What is ASKAP? It stands for Australian Square Kilometer Array Pathfinder and is a next-generation radio telescope incorporating novel receiver technologies and leading- edge ICT systems. It is made up of 36 antennas, each 12 meters in diameter, that all work together as a single instrument. When ASKAP is completed, it will be capable of high dynamic wide-field imaging using novel phased array feeds that will provide a unique new capability within radio astronomy. The design of ASKAP is unique among radio telescopes because its antennas feature three-axis movement and will use phased array feeds or radio cameras rather than ‘single pixel feeds’ to detect and amplify radio waves. These attributes mean that the telescope will survey large areas of the sky with unprecedented sensitivity and speed. Why did the scientists believe this radio wave was different from whatever they had heard before? They explained that it has a very high polarization. This means its light oscillates in only one direction, but that direction rotates with time. Apart from this, the brightness of the object also varies dramatically, by a factor of 100, and the signal switches on and off apparently at random, unlike anything the scientists had ever seen before! Initially, the scientists thought it could be a pulsar or else a type of star that emits huge solar flares. But the signals from this new source don’t match what these celestial objects emit! While the investigation continues on the radio wave, the source of the signals has been dubbed the ASKAP J173608.2-321635. However, even though the scientists werebaffled by the source of the emission, finding it was nothing short of extraordinary! The astronomers detected six signals over a period of nine months in 2020. But, when the astronomers tried to find the source in visible light, using optical telescopes, they saw nothing. The Parkes radio telescope in Australia also came up empty. This telescope, located just outside the town of Parkes in the central-west region of New South Wales, is one of the four instruments that make up the Australia Telescope National Facility. Parkes has a diameter of 64 meters, making it one of the largest single-dish telescopes in the southern hemisphere dedicated to astronomy. It started operating in 1961, and the surface, control system, focus cabin, receivers, computers, and cabling have all been upgraded to keep the telescope at the cutting edge of radio astronomy. The telescope is now 10,000 times more sensitive than when it was first commissioned. However, it failed to detect the source of the radio signal! Luckily, there is the MeerKAT radio telescope in South Africa, an array of 64 interlinked receptors. A receptor is the complete antenna structure, with the primary reflector, sub- reflector, and all receivers, digitizers, and other electronics installed. Forty-eight of the receptors are concentrated in the core area, which is approximately 1 km in diameter. MeerKAT is even more powerful than Parkes, so the astronomers turned to it to unravel the mystery of this strange radio signal! MeerKAT did detect the signal! However, it was intermittent and different, signaling that

Why Don't Venus And Mars Have Life If They Are Both In The Habitable Zone?
The habitable zone is a region of the solar system where temperatures allow liquid water to exist on a planet, that is, a region that is neither too hot nor too cold. Did you know that there are three planets within the habitable zone in our solar system?
The habitable zone
The habitable zone is an area around a star within which temperatures between 32°F (0°C or 273K) and 212°F (100°C or 373K) are reached. That is, the habitable zone corresponds to the area around a star where the average temperature of the planets there would allow liquid water on its surface.
Other factors for habitability
The existence of liquid water on a planet does not depend only on the amount of energy it receives from its star. Atmospheric pressure also plays a vital role in the presence of water. Some of these other factors are:
Greenhouse effect: carbon dioxide in a planet's atmosphere generates the well-known greenhouse effect, due to which much of the radiation from the star cannot escape from the planet's surface. Albedo: is called albedo to the level of reflectivity of the surface of the planets or celestial bodies.
The habitable zone of other stars The main factor that determines the extent and characteristics of the habitable zone is stellar luminosity. As such,
Venus and Mars: habitable or not?
As we have already seen, the habitable zone of our solar system hosts three planets, Venus, Earth, and Mars; however, of those three, only Earth has life. Not only that but Venus and Mars are a long way from habitable planets.
1. Dough Low-mass planets are bad candidates for life for two reasons. First, its low gravity makes conserving the atmosphere difficult. 2. Orbit and rotation of the planet As in the other criteria, stability is critical in determining the effect of orbital and rotational characteristics on planetary habitability.

Starship will make its maiden orbital flight NEXT MONTH: Elon Musk reveals target launch date for his highly-anticipated £2.4 billion, 395ft-tall craft that was built to go to Mars
Starship will make its maiden orbital flight NEXT MONTH: Elon Musk reveals target launch date for his highly-anticipated £2.4 billion, 395ft-tall craft that was built to go to Mars
The rocket ship that could take humans to Marswithin the next decade is set to make its maiden orbital flight next month.
Elon Musk said SpaceX was targeting March for the eagerly-anticipated launch of his $3 billion (£2.4 billion) Starship — a vehicle that could be a game-changer for long-distance space travel.
Now the tech entrepreneur has revealed that his SpaceX company will try to send its huge Starship rocket to Earth orbit for the first time in a matter of weeks, providing the vehicle successfully ticks a few more boxes.
'If remaining tests go well, we will attempt a Starship launch next month,' Musk wrote on Twitter.
Readying for lift-off: Elon Musk's $3 billion (£2.4 billion) Starship – a vehicle that could be a game-changer for long-distance space travel – is now just weeks away from shooting for the stars in what will be a highly-anticipated maiden orbital launch
'If remaining tests go well, we will attempt a Starship launch next month,' Musk wrote on Twitter
'Success is far from certain, but excitement is guaranteed.'
There is reason to take the pledge with a pinch of salt, however.
The billionaire is famous for being overly-ambitious when it comes to targets — and Starship has already faced months of delays while readying for its debut orbital lift-off.
STARSHIP: KEY FACTS
First launch: March 2023?
What will it be used for? Partly the lander for NASA's moon missions but also to transport humans to Mars.
Height: 395ft (120m)
Weight: 11 million pounds (5 million kg)
Thrust:16 million pounds (70 Meganewtons)
Is it reusable? Yes
Max payload to low-Earth orbit: 220,000-330,000 pounds (100-150 tonnes)
Max payload to lunar orbit:220,000 pounds (100 tonnes)
Solid fuel: N/A
Liquid fuel: Oxygen and methane
Engines: Powered by around 32 Raptor engines
Crew module:Starship (ultimately able to carry up to 100 passengers)
Cost to build: Around $3 billion (£2.4 billion) in terms of total development
Price per launch: Ultimately around $2 million (1.7 million), according to Musk
Where will it launch from? Likely the Starbase facility near Boca Chica, Texas. But possibly Launch Complex 39A at the Kennedy Space Center.
Total launches:0
But there's no doubt that the wet dress rehearsal was a step in the right direction.
It includes many of the procedures SpaceX engineers will perform on launch day, such as pumping liquid oxygen and liquid methane propellant into the vehicle's Super Heavy first stage and Starship upper stage.
The vital mission – which will blast off from Texas and send the craft around Earth once, with a targeted splashdown in the Pacific Ocean near Hawaii – will act as an early milestone in Musk's ambition for Starship to carry people and cargo to the moon and Mars.
No spacecraft is currently capable of sending humans to the Red Planet — but all that could change with the development of Starship.
Its creation is part of Musk's grander vision of making us a 'multi-planetary species', first by starting a human colony on Mars and even getting to the point of building cities.
That may seem ambitious, but the tech supremo's long-term objective for Starship is for it to possibly carry people to destinations in the 'greater Solar System', including gas giants such as Jupiter or one of its possibly-habitable moons.
The thinking is that if there were ever a global apocalypse on Earth, the human race would have a better chance of several if people lived on different worlds in our solar system.
Starship will be capable of carrying up to 100 people to the Red Planet on a journey that is 250 times further than the moon and would take around nine months each way.
Musk and SpaceX have remained tight-lipped about a lot of the details regarding Starship, including images of what the inside will look like, but the 51-year-old has previously said he is looking to install around 40 cabins in the payload area near the front of the upper stage.
'You could conceivably have five or six people per cabin, if you really wanted to crowd people in,' the Tesla, SpaceX and Twitter boss added.
'But I think mostly we would expect to see two or three people per cabin, and so nominally about 100 people per flight to Mars.'
The Martian surface is not the only destination for Starship, however.
Powerful: Musk's vehicle (pictured earlier this week) packs 16 million pounds (70 Meganewtons) of thrust, which is almost double that of the other new generation rocket created by NASA and known as the Space Launch System (SLS)
A base on Mars? In terms of a Starship capsule travelling to the Red Planet, Musk wants to install around 40 cabins in the payload area near the front of the upper stage. This artist's impression shows what it would be like having multiple Starship vehicles on the Martian world
In April 2021, NASA announced that it had selected SpaceX's next-generation vehicle as the first crewed lunar lander for its Artemis III mission — due to put the first woman and first person of colour on the moon in 2025.
The Starship HLS – or Starship Human Landing System – will include SpaceX's Raptor engines, while also pulling inspiration from the Falcon and Dragon vehicles' designs.
It will feature a spacious cabin and two airlocks for astronaut moonwalks.
However, 2025 won't be the Starship HLS' first moon landing. That's because NASA wants the vehicle to perform an uncrewed test touchdown before it returns human boots to the lunar surface for the first time since 1972.
The other uses for Starship are to deposit satellites into low-Earth orbit and possibly carry out space tourism trips.
Musk has already promised a trip around the moon to the Japanese online retail billionaire Yusaku Maezawa, who at the end of last year announced that a crew of eight artists would be joining him for the dearMoon mission.
It is currently scheduled for sometime this year, but with Starship not yet having completed a successful orbital launch, that date seems poised to slip.
Musk has previously estimated the total development cost of the Starship project to be between $2 billion (£1.6 billion) and $10 billion (£8 billion).
He later said it would probably be 'closer to two or three [billion] than it is to 10.'
The booster element alone has been developed over the years, from the Falcon 1 which was retired in 2009 to the Falcon 9, Falcon Heavy, and now Super Heavy.
The idea for the Super Heavy dates back to November 2005, when Musk first discussed his desire to create a rocket he then termed BFR or Big F***ing rocket.
Since then, other SpaceX launch vehicles have followed, all building up to the development of the Super Heavy.
HOW WILL STARSHIP WORK, IS IT THE MOST POWERFUL ROCKET EVER AND WHERE WILL IT LAUNCH FROM?
How Starship works
Starship aims to be SpaceX's first fully-reusable rocket, which is part of the reason why the flight costs for Musk's vehicle could end up 200 times cheaper per launch than most other rockets.
So how will it work?
When it is ready to land on Earth, Starship will initially re-enter the atmosphere at a 60-degree angle, before 'belly-flopping' to the ground in a horizontal position.
This type of return uses our planet's atmosphere to slow the vehicle's descent but makes it unstable.
Starship aims to be SpaceX's first fully-reusable rocket, which is part of the reason why the flight costs for Musk's vehicle could end up 200 times cheaper per launch than most other rockets
It is for this reason that Starship will use four steel landing flaps, positioned near the front and rear of the vehicle, to control its descent, working in a similar way to how a skydiver uses their arms and legs to control a free-fall.
As Starship approaches the ground, it flips back into a vertical position and then uses its Raptor engines as retro-rockets to guide it down for a safe landing.
In November 2019, Musk claimed a Starship launch could cost just $2 million (£1.8 million) each time, thanks to efficiency savings that come from reusing a rocket.
By comparison, NASA's new Space Launch System (SLS) rocket is estimated to cost an eye-watering $4.1 billion (£3.3 billion) per launch.
Where will Starship launch from?
Starship is expected to launch from the Starbase facility in Texas, close to the town of Boca Chica.
However, SpaceX will first need a launch license from the Federal Aviation Administration before it can blast off.
Musk has also previously said that the ship could lift off from Launch Complex 39A at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, which is currently used by SpaceX for its Falcon series of rockets.
This was the launchpad that Apollo 11 blasted off from for its legendary mission to the moon in July 1969.
Is it the biggest rocket ever?
Yes. And not only that, it is also the most powerful.
Musk's vehicle packs 16 million pounds (70 Meganewtons) of thrust, which is almost double that of the other new generation rocket created by NASA and known as the SLS.
You might remember SLS for successfully delivering the Orion spacecraft to orbit last November as part of the Artemis I mission that saw it fly around the moon and back.
Starship is 395ft (120m) tall, with the ship itself measuring 164ft (49m) and the booster 230ft (70m).
No surprise, but SpaceX's Super Heavy rocket and the accompanying Starship spacecraft are, well, heavy.
The whole thing comes in at 11 million pounds (5 million kg) when fuelled.
REUSACHTIGE NESTELDRANG: 256 ONTDEKTE TITANOSAURUSEIEREN LEREN ONS VEEL MEER OVER DIT ENORME BEEST
REUSACHTIGE NESTELDRANG: 256 ONTDEKTE TITANOSAURUSEIEREN LEREN ONS VEEL MEER OVER DIT ENORME BEEST
Jeannette Kras
De titanosaurus spreekt met zijn maximale lengte van 30 meter tot de verbeelding. Dankzij de vondst van 256 dino-eieren weten we nu veel meer over dit gigantische beest.
In Centraal-India zijn 92 fossiele nesten vol met reuzeneieren gevonden, die zo’n 18 centimeter groot zijn. Ze blijken afkomstig van de titanosaurus (letterlijk: reusachtige of titanische hagedis), met een lengte tot wel 30 meter en een gewicht van 75.000 kilo waarschijnlijk de grootste dinosauriër die ooit op het Indische subcontinent heeft rondgelopen. Ondanks zijn enorme postuur was het waarschijnlijk een goeiige lobbes. Hij at louter planten, maar kon wel een vernietigende klap uitdelen met zijn staart of met zijn lange nek als een bloeddorstig monster het lef had om een hap uit hem te willen nemen.
Prehistorische kraamkamer De Lameta-formatie, gelegen in de Narmada-vallei in Centraal-India, staat bij paleontologen bekend om zijn vruchtbare bodem. Er zijn in de afgelopen 200 jaar al ontzettend veel fossielen van dino-skeletten, botten en eieren gevonden, die stammen uit het laatste stukje van het Krijt-tijdperk, tussen 70 miljoen en 66 miljoen jaar geleden, vlak voordat de dinosaurussen uitstierven.
Maar er lagen nog een aantal onaangeroerde prehistorische verrassingen op de wetenschappers te wachten. Liefst 256 titanosauruseieren kwamen na zorgvuldig onderzoek uit de aardlagen naar boven en geven ons een prachtig inkijkje in de leefwereld en leefgewoonten van deze gigantische dinosaurussen.
Ondiepe kuilen Onderzoekers van de Universiteit van New Delhi analyseerden de versteende eierresten en vonden uiteindelijk zes verschillende eiersoorten die allemaal onder de noemer titanosaurus vallen. Dit was een verrassing voor het team, omdat zij niet eerder zoveel diversiteit in skeletresten uit de omgeving waren tegengekomen. Ook de plaatsing van de tientallen nesten was interessant. Het kan niet anders dan dat de reusachtige dieren hun eieren in ondiepe kuilen begroeven, net als hedendaagse krokodillen dat doen. Er werden daarnaast verschillende afwijkingen gevonden in de eieren. Zo vonden ze bijvoorbeeld een ‘ei in een ei’. Dit is iets wat zelden voorkomt en erop duidt dat de fysiologie van de voortplanting van titanosaurussen erg lijkt op die van moderne vogels, die op dezelfde manier het ene na het andere ei produceren en in het nest leggen.
Broedkolonie Er zijn verspreid over het gebied heel veel nesten dicht bij elkaar gevonden. De wetenschappers concluderen dan ook dat de titanosaurussen, net als 13 procent van de hedendaagse vogelsoorten (waaronder veel zeevogels, maar ook roeken, kauwen en zwaluwen), gezamenlijk broedden in een titanische broedkolonie. Maar de kleine afstand tussen de nesten liet weinig ruimte over voor de immense dinosauruspapa’s en mama’s, waardoor het er sterk op lijkt dat de volwassen dieren de pasgeborenen al snel aan hun lot overlieten.
Het is zonder zulke archeologische vondsten onmogelijk om dit soort dingen over de voortplanting te ontdekken. De fossiele nesten leveren een schat aan gedetailleerde informatie en dragen enorm bij aan het begrip van paleontologen over hoe dinosaurussen leefden en evolueerden.
1000 kilometer aan eieren “Ons onderzoek heeft een grote broedplaats van een kolonie titanosaurussen blootgelegd. We hebben nieuwe inzichten opgedaan over het nestgedrag en de eerste levensfase van de reusachtige dieren. Er zijn door ons werk veel nieuwe details bekend geworden over de voortplantingsstrategie van deze dinosauriërs, vlak voordat ze zijn uitgestorven”, zegt onderzoeker Harsha Dhiman.
“De dinosaurusnesten in Centraal-India van Jabalpur in de oostelijke Narmada-vallei tot Balasinor in het westen, zijn nu gekoppeld aan de nieuwe broedplaatsen van het Dhar-district in Madhya Pradesh. Al met al is er een 1000 kilometer lang gebied ontstaan, dat een van de grootste dinosaurusbroedplaatsen ter wereld vormt”, besluit onderzoeksleider Guntupalli Prasad. En vermoedelijk zijn de onderzoekers nog lang niet uitgegraven. Het is een kwestie van tijd tot er nieuwe interessante details bekend worden over het leven van de reusachtige dinosauriërs.
Are the Misty Peaks of the Azores Remnants of the Legendary Atlantis?
Are the Misty Peaks of the Azores Remnants of the Legendary Atlantis?
Jutting from the deep briny mists of the mid-Atlantic, some 800 miles (1287 km) due west of Portugal, the Azores strike one as bejeweled, fern and flower-encrusted baubles in a vast expanse of blue oblivion. Largely a dormant volcanic archipelago today, to most, the region is a popular exotic getaway, but to some, these verdant islands represent the best case for a present-day fragment of the famed sunken landmass of Atlantis.
In a summary of a 2014 keynote speech given by legendary ocean explorer Thor Heyerdahl and Dr. Dominique Görlitz in Oslo, Norway, event planners state;
“In the last three years, the president of the Portuguese Association of Archaeological Research, Nuno Ribeiro, has been claiming that archeological remains of structures discovered on several Azorean islands are of pre-Portuguese origin. Together with the Portuguese archaeologist Anabela Joaquinito, he has identified dozens of similar pyramidal structures in the Madalena area of Pico Island. Artifacts were also found on site which may predate the Portuguese settlement on the island. They believe the structures may have been built according to an oriented plan, aligned with thesummer solstices , which suggests they were built with an intended purpose. They also believe that the Madalena pyramidal structures are analogous to similar prehistoric structures found in Sicily, North Africa and the Canary Islands which are known to have served ritual purposes.”
This is quite interesting in and of itself, but consider that if one takes Plato's account as detailed in Critias and Timaeus at face value, then geographically, the primary Atlantean landmass from which sprang its sprawling seaborne empire would have been situated almost directly where the modern Azores island chain currently peeks out of the deep Atlantic. That is, directly “in front of the Pillars of Hercules,” i.e., Straits of Gibraltar. Ignatius Donnelly, the U.S. Congressman and dear friend of Abraham Lincoln who wrote the iconic 1882 book Atlantis: The Antediluvian World , was among the first to note this, as were the crew of the survey ship H.M.S. Challenger, whose 1877 article inScientific American , entitled “Glimpses of Atlantis,” stated;
“While the new America was thus forming, the ancient Atlantis was no doubt sinking as well as washing away. When its final disappearance occurred remains to be determined; quite recently however, two or three lines of research seem to converge in support of the truth of the ancient story, long considered mythical, in regard to the geologically recent occurrence of that wonderful catastrophe. Archaeo-geology has sufficiently demonstrated that the memory of man runs back vastly farther than history has been willing to admit; so that there remains no inherent improbability in the story the Egyptian priests told to Solon .”
Sao Jorge island in the Azores. Could it be that the Azores are actually the location of the legendary Atlantis?
Quite a conclusion from some of the most respected oceanographic pioneers, and one whose honest and open tone struck me as fundamentally different from the snide and condescending assessments of many mainstream discussions today, who in the ever-evolving debate surrounding Atlantis that we have thus explored, largely preclude a serious discussion of its historical or geographic reality before the conversation even begins. Yet until quite recently, historically speaking, this was not necessarily the case.
In a lighthearted Washington Post article from 1988 entitled “São Miguel, the Azores: Misty Fragments of Atlantis,” for example, travel correspondent David Yeadon flew to the Azores to meet with a local tour guide in São Miguel to catalog some choice sightseeing spots, only to find himself debating Atlantis over drinks with his host, something I can certainly relate to as this book was taking shape over the years. In the article he writes;
“Most Azoreans have no doubts on the matter at all.
‘Of course, this is Atlantis!’ Antonio Pinero insisted.
We sat sipping coffee and aguardiente (Azorean firewater made from the remnants of grape pressings) in an outdoor café overlooking the broad harbor at Ponta Delgada, capital of São Miguel Island and largest town in the nine-island archipelago of the Azores.
Antonio had been a modest, soft-spoken companion during my first hours in this little outpost of Portugal, 800 miles due west of Lisbon in the North Atlantic Ocean. But about this particular subject he tolerated no ambiguity whatsoever. From inside his worn wool jacket, he pulled a much-thumbed book titled Plato's History of Atlantis.
‘Was Plato a wise man?’ he challenged, obviously preparing for an extended semantic foray.
‘Yes, he certainly was,’ he responded. ‘Now please listen to what he wrote.’
He turned the grubby pages with solemnity.
‘For in those days,’ he began, ‘the Atlantis (sic) was navigable from an island situated to the west of the straits, which you call the Pillars of Hercules.’
He paused. ‘That's Gibraltar - the way out from the Mediterranean.’
I nodded; he nodded.
‘… and from it could be reached other islands and from the islands you might pass through to the opposite continent.’
He paused again. ‘That’s America.’
‘Plato knew about America?’ I laughed (a little).
Tony was not amused.
‘Plato knew everything. ’”
Back in Athens, 2,345 years before this little exchange at the São Miguel cafe was unfolding, Plato wrote in his Timaeus, describing a portion of the Atlantean capital city;
“In the next place, they used fountains both of cold and hot springs; these were very abundant, and both kinds wonderfully adapted to use by reason of the sweetness and excellence of their waters. They constructed buildings about them, and planted suitable trees; also, cisterns, some open to the heaven, other which they roofed over, to be used in winter as warm baths, there were the king’s baths, and the baths of private persons, which were kept apart; also, separate baths for women, and others again for horses and cattle, and to them they gave as much adornment as was suitable for them.”
While this may seem like a trivial aspect of our investigation, consider that today, one of the Azores’ main tourist attractions is its numerous healing springs. As a travel guide recently explained, “São Miguel Island is home to an exceptional array of mineral hot springs sure to elevate you to unmatched levels of relaxation. The Azores’ unique volcanic origins make these islands a thermal paradise, featuring steamy, iron-rich pools tucked amid lush green vegetation and tropical trees, and even a natural ocean pool heated by a volcanic vent and cooled by the ebbing tides of the Atlantic.” Sounds pretty nice.
The Azores were also briefly in the spotlight in 2013 when a chance discovery revealed a strange object at the bottom of the ocean. Diocleciano Silva, a Portuguese fisherman, noticed an unusual image on his yacht’s depth-finder while trolling between the islands of São Miguel and Terceira. According to his instruments, the pyramidal structure's base measured a whopping 86,111 square feet (8,000 sqm.), and its apex was submerged only 40 feet (12.2 m) beneath the surface, while the structure itself stood nearly 200 feet tall (61 m) from its base. It was also determined to be directly oriented to the four geophysical cardinal directions.
Reporting the findings to the Portuguese government in short order, they began their own investigation which naturally led to the official pronouncement that Silva had simply been using cheap and inaccurate equipment which gave an artificially sharp contour to what they claimed was a long-known natural volcanic formation in the area despite the iconic image of what is clearly a pyramid, which Portuguese television showed in a live broadcast at the time.
2021 oceanographic chart of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.
Geographically, regarding the working hypothesis – and description by Plato – that the region we call the Azorean Archipelago is the true geographical location of a former Atlantean home-island, in final reduced size after the continent´s previous two destructions as detailed by Edgar Cayce and others like Rudolf Steiner and William Scott-Elliott, what is truly astounding to me is that when one views a modern chart of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, one can clearly see the almost identical outline of the remaining Atlantean landmass hand-drawn by a teenage Frederick Oliver around 1886 during his clairaudient dictations of the past life of his muse Phylos in Atlantis in 11,160 BC on the island of Poseid.
This was contained in a loose collection of notes that later became the book A Dweller on Two Planets , privately published by his mother in 1904, years after Oliver’s early death in 1899, and not reaching wider audiences until a second publishing in 1920. Oliver’s channeled sketch is uncannily accurate given that he did not have access to detailed maps of the ocean floor at the time his manuscript was written in 1884-86, as none existed.
To my knowledge the only map he could have seen, had he visited a research library, would have been a basic contour map made by Sir Wyville Thomson in 1877 and released shortly after the H.M.S. Challenger survey, which contains no explicit details of the full boundaries and shape of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. Compared to a modern oceanographic or bathythermic chart, there is no comparison regarding the level of detail, making Oliver’s sketch a bizarre and statistically improbable coincidence.

Yet if one traces the shape of Oliver’s channeled drawing, the curvature and geographical indentations of the landmass of Poseid are uncannily similar to the actual modern image of the Azorean seabed. In fact, it fits over the modern chart like a puzzle piece if exploded to equal size and oriented. “Pitach Rokh,” the highest point in Poseid according to Frederick Oliver’s book, was an enormous snow-capped active volcano in 11,160 BC.
Now note its location in his hand-drawn map's extreme southeast quadrant. This is very close to where the Azores jut out of the mid-Atlantic, straight “in front of the Pillars of Hercules ” as Plato stated. And from Plato’s description of the famed circular capital of Atlantis, whose central feature was a monumental statue of Poseidon surrounded by the Nereids, it would make sense that Oliver and Cayce both refer to the island as Poseid, and the culture as Atlantis.
Don’t forget that today, Mount Pico - a dormant stratovolcano and the highest point in the Azores which officially towers over the countryside at almost 7,700 feet (2,347 m) - when measured from its base deep in the ocean where once likely stood dry land some 13,000 years ago, is even taller; in fact, it would be one of the tallest mountains on earth. And so we are left with another interesting clue in our survey of these fragments of Atlantis, another piece of the puzzle as it were. Are Pitach Rokh from A Dweller on Two Planets and Mt. Pico one and the same? Time will tell, I suppose.
Athanasius Kircher's map of Atlantis, turned upside down, which located Atlantis in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.
Even the map the Jesuit polymath Athanasius Kircher claims to have found in the Vatican Library during the Renaissance (above), copied from an alleged original brought to Rome from Egypt during the time of Octavian in the 1st century B.C., when flipped upside down so that Spain is oriented to the right, does, if you pay attention, show a more-similar-than-not, fin-shaped top portion of Atlantis divided by two rivers where the true-north compass symbol was placed.
And Edgar Cayce, one of the most studied clairvoyants in modern history, whose over 500 hypnogogic trance readings on Atlantis we have already explored at length, claimed that after many destructions and disturbances, but before the final separation into the separate islands of Poseid, Aryan and Og, the Atlantean landmass was crisscrossed by said rivers, even giving a date of 28,000 BC for this second of three destructions due to an unintended over-tuning of the massive Tuaoi crystal powering the civilization, which fractured the substrata. Perhaps this is the phase portrayed in Kircher’s map, whose upper portion too encompasses the Azores, and where our oceanographic chart displays that curious triangular seamount beneath the ocean.
At the end of the day, it’s all quite a coincidence if skeptics and debunkers claim unequivocally that Plato’s account of Atlantis was a pure fiction designed to glorify Athens, or at best, simply a fantastical reprise of more mundane Mediterranean disasters like the volcanic eruptions on the island of Thera in historical times, both of which I categorically reject based on the evidence thus presented throughout this book, as well as on Plato’s own frank and specific account from his dialogues which, like it or not, seems to point to the Mid-Atlantic Ridge as the nucleus of the vast and powerful final iteration of the empire of Atlantis, whose imperial ambitions against the peoples of the Mediterranean were checked by its infamous and catastrophic destruction around 9,600 BC according to his seminal account.
But don’t take my word for it; it was Critias himself who explained in Plato’s Timaeus, “Let me tell you this story then, Socrates. It’s a very strange one but even so, every word of it is true. It’s a story that Solon, the wisest of the seven sages once vouched for.”

Labelled pots found in a 2,500-year-old embalming workshop have revealed the plant and animal extracts used to prepare ancient Egyptian mummies — including ingredients originating hundreds and even thousands of kilometres away.
Chemical analysis of the pots’ contents has identified complex mixtures of botanical resins and other substances, some of them from plants that grow as far away as southeast Asia. The discovery was reported in a 1 February paper in Nature1.
Previously, insights into the embalming process have come from two main sources: historical texts and chemical analyses of the mummies themselves. But linking these strands of information has proved difficult, says Salima Ikram, an archaeologist and mummy specialist at the American University in Cairo. “You might have the name of something, but you don’t know what the hell it is, except the hieroglyphics suggesting it’s an oil or a resin.”
That has now changed thanks to an underground embalming workshop discovered in 2016 at Saqqara, an ancient Egyptian burial ground in use from 2900 BC or earlier. The site also includes burial chambers, and it is likely that elite members of society were interred there, the authors say. Inside the Saqqara workshop, which dates to 664–525 BC, archaeologists discovered dozens of ceramic vessels used in the embalming process, many labelled with the ingredients they contain and their use. “This is the first time you’ve got jars with labels of the contents,” says Ikram.

To identify the specific contents of the vessels, an Egyptian–German team analysed the mixtures using a technique called gas chromatography–mass spectrometry, at a National Research Centre laboratory in Giza, Egypt. This showed that the pots contained substances previously linked to mummification, including extracts from juniper bushes, cypress trees and cedar trees, which grow in the eastern Mediterranean region. The team also found bitumen from the Dead Sea, along with animal fats and beeswax, probably of local origin.
But the researchers also identified two surprising ingredients: one resin called elemi, which comes from Canarium trees that grow in rainforests in Asia and Africa; and another called dammar that comes from Shorea trees found in tropical forests in southern India, Sri Lanka and southeast Asia.
“Egypt was resource poor in terms of many resinous substances, so many were procured or traded from distant lands,” says Carl Heron, an archaeological scientist at the British Museum in London.

Ancient trade networks connected India and southeast Asia with the Mediterranean region. But it’s not clear whether Egyptian embalmers sought out these specific ingredients or came across them through trial and error, says Ikram. “Absolutely amazing”, she says. “Who would have thought that they were getting stuff that might be coming from India?”
Ancient Egyptian embalmers had a sophisticated understanding of the raw materials’ properties, the authors say. Pots contained complex mixtures of ingredients that, in some cases, had been carefully heated or distilled. Many of the resins had antimicrobial properties — one bowl containing elemi and animal fat was inscribed “to make his odour pleasant” — or characteristics that promoted preservation.
“Their knowledge of these substances was incredible,” says study co-author Maxime Rageot, a biomolecular archaeologist at the University of Tübingen in Germany.
Chemical studies of mummies suggest that embalming recipes became more complex over time, notes Rageot. But one open question is how ancient Egyptians developed specific embalming procedures and recipes — and why they selected certain ingredients over others, said study co-author Mahmoud Bahgat, a biochemist at Egypt’s National Research Centre in Cairo, at a press briefing. “We need to be as clever as them to discover the intentions.”
Future Space Telescopes Could be 100 Meters Across, Constructed in Space, and Then Bent Into a Precise Shape
It is an exciting time for astronomers and cosmologists. Since the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers have been treated to the most vivid and detailed images of the Universe ever taken. Webb‘s powerful infrared imagers, spectrometers, and coronographs will allow for even more in the near future, including everything from surveys of the early Universe to direct imaging studies of exoplanets. Moreover, several next-generation telescopes will become operational in the coming years with 30-meter (~98.5 feet) primary mirrors, adaptive optics, spectrometers, and coronographs.
Even with these impressive instruments, astronomers and cosmologists look forward to an era when even more sophisticated and powerful telescopes are available. For example, Zachary Cordero of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) recently proposed a telescope with a 100-meter (328-foot) primary mirror that would be autonomously constructed in space and bent into shape by electrostatic actuators. His proposal was one of several concepts selected this year by the NASA Innovative Advanced Concepts (NIAC) program for Phase I development.
Corder is the Boeing Career Development Professor in Aeronautics and Astronautics at MIT and a member of the Aerospace Materials and Structures Lab (AMSL) and Small Satellite Center. His research integrates his expertise in processing science, mechanics, and design to develop novel materials and structures for emerging aerospace applications. His proposal is the result of a collaboration with Prof. Jeffrey Lang (from MIT’s Electronics and the Microsystems Technology Laboratories) and a team of three students with the AMSL, including Ph.D. student Harsh Girishbhai Bhundiya.
Their proposed telescope addresses a key issue with space telescopes and other large payloads that are packaged for launch and then deployed in orbit. In short, size and surface precision tradeoffs limit the diameter of deployable space telescopes to the 10s of meters. Consider the recently-launched James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), the largest and most powerful telescope ever sent to space. To fit into its payload fairing (atop an Ariane 5 rocket), the telescope was designed so that it could be folded into a more compact form.
This included its primary mirror, secondary mirror, and sunshield, which all unfolded once the space telescope was in orbit. Meanwhile, the primary mirror (the most complex and powerful ever deployed) measures 6.5 meters (21 feet) in diameter. Its successor, the Large UV/Optical/IR Surveyor (LUVOIR), will have a similar folding assembly and a primary mirror measuring 8 to 15 meters (26.5 to 49 feet) in diameter – depending on the selected design (LUVOIR-A or -B). As Bhundiya explained to Universe Today via email:
“Today, most spacecraft antennas are deployed in orbit (e.g., Northrop Grumman’s Astromesh antenna) and have been optimized to achieve high performance and gain. However, they have limitations: 1) They are passive deployable systems. I.e. once you deploy them you cannot adaptively change the shape of the antenna. 2) They become difficult to slew as their size increases. 3) They exhibit a tradeoff between diameter and precision. I.e. their precision decreases as their size increases, which is a challenge for achieving astronomy and sensing applications that require both large diameters and high precision (e.g. JWST).”
While many in-space construction methods have been proposed to overcome these limitations, detailed analyses of their performance for building precision structures (like large-diameter reflectors) are lacking. For the sake of their proposal, Cordero and his colleagues conducted a quantitative, system-level comparison of materials and processes for in-space manufacturing. Ultimately, they determined that this limitation could be overcome using advanced materials and a novel in-space manufacturing method called Bend-Forming.
This technique, invented by researchers at the AMSL and described in a recent paper co-authored by Bhundiya and Cordero, relies on a combination of Computer Numerical Control (CNC) deformation processing and hierarchical high-performance materials. As Harsh explained it:
“Bend-Forming is a process for fabricating 3D wireframe structures from metal wire feedstock. It works by bending a single strand of wire at specific nodes and with specific angles, and adding joints to the nodes to make a stiff structure. So to fabricate a given structure, you convert it into bending instructions which can be implemented on a machine like a CNC wire bender to fabricate it from a single strand of feedstock. The key application of Bend-Forming is to manufacture the support structure for a large antenna on orbit. The process is well-suited for this application because it is low-power, can fabricate structures with high compaction ratios, and has essentially no size limit.”
In contrast to other in-space assembly and manufacturing approaches, Bend-Forming is low-power and is uniquely enabled by the extremely low-temperature environment of space. In addition, this technique enables smart structures that leverage multifunctional materials to achieve new combinations of size, mass, stiffness, and precision. Additionally, the resulting smart structures leverage multifunctional materials to achieve unprecedented combinations of size, mass, stiffness, and precision, breaking the design paradigms that limit conventional truss or tension-aligned space structures.
In addition to their native precision, Large Bend-Formed structures can use their electrostatic actuators to contour a reflector surface with sub-millimeter precision. This, said Harsh, will increase the precision of their fabricated antenna in orbit:
“The method of active control is called electrostatic actuation and uses forces generated by electrostatic attraction to precisely shape a metallic mesh into a curved shape which acts as the antenna reflector. We do this by applying a voltage between the mesh and a ‘command surface’ which consists of the Bend-Formed support structure and deployable electrodes. By adjusting this voltage, we can precisely shape the reflector surface and achieve a high-gain, parabolic antenna.”

Harsh and his colleagues deduce that this technique will allow for a deployable mirror measuring more than 100 meters (328 ft) in diameter that could achieve a surface precision of 100 m/m and a specific area of more than 10 m2/kg. This capability would surpass existing microwave radiometry technology and could lead to significant improvements in storm forecasts and an improved understanding of atmospheric processes like the hydrologic cycle. This would have significant implications for Earth Observation and exoplanet studies.
The team recently demonstrated a 1-meter (3.3 ft) prototype of an electrostatically-actuated reflector with a Bend-Formed support structure at the 2023 American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) SciTech Conference, which ran from January 23rd to 27th in National Harbor, Maryland. With this Phase I NIAC grant, the team plans to mature the technology with the ultimate aim of creating a microwave radiometry reflector.
Looking ahead, the team plans to investigate how Bend-Forming can be used in geostationary orbit (GEO) to create a microwave radiometry reflector with a 15km (9.3 mi) field of view, a ground resolution of 35km (21.75 mi) and a proposed frequency span of 50 to 56 GHz – the super-high and extremely-high frequent range (SHF/EHF). This will enable the telescope to retrieve temperature profiles from exoplanet atmospheres, a key characteristic allowing astrobiologists to measure habitability.
“Our goal with the NIAC now is to work towards implementing our technology of Bend-Forming and electrostatic actuation in space,” said Harsh. “We envision fabricating 100-m diameter antennas in geostationary orbit with have Bend-Formed support structure and electrostatically-actuated reflector surfaces. These antennas will enable a new generation of spacecraft with increased sensing, communication, and power capabilities.”
A Martian Meteorite Contains Organic Compounds. The Raw Ingredients for Life?
In a recent study published in Sciences Advances, an international team of scientists led by the Technical University of Munich examined the Martian meteorite Tissint, which fell near the village of Tissint, Morocco, on July 18, 2011, with pieces of the meteorite found as far as approximately 50 kilometers (30 miles) from the village. What makes Tissint intriguing is the presence of a “huge organic diversity”, as noted in the study, which could help scientists better understand if life ever existed on Mars, and even the geologic history of Earth, as well.
“Mars and Earth share many aspects of their evolution,” Dr. Philippe Schmitt-Kopplin, who is the Director of the Research Unit Analytical Biochemistry at the Technical University of Munich, and lead author of the study, said in a statement. “And while life arose and thrived on our home planet, the question of whether it ever existed on Mars is a very hot research topic that requires deeper knowledge of our neighboring planet’s water, organic molecules, and reactive surfaces.”
Organic moleculesare molecules comprised of carbon atoms that are bonded to hydrogen atoms, but can also contain oxygen, nitrogen, and other elements, as well. The four primary classes of organic molecules include carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids, and lipids. As seen on Earth, organic molecules are analogous to life, but the study notes that abiotic organic chemistry, non-biological processes, have been observed “in other Martian meteorites.”
“Understanding the processes and sequence of events that shaped this rich organic bounty will reveal new details about Mars’ habitability and potentially about the reactions that could lead to the formation of life,” Dr. Andrew Steele, who is a Staff Science at Carnegie Science, a member of the Mars Sample Return Campaign Science Group for NASA’s Perseverance rover, and a co-author on the study, said in a statement. Dr. Steele has also conducted extensive research pertaining to organic material found in Martian meteorites, to include Tissint.
For the study, the researchers examined the entirety of Tissint’s organic composition, and identified a “diverse chemistry and abundance in complex molecules “, as noted in the study, while also helping to unlock the past geologic processes within the crust and mantle of the Red Planet. The researchers also identified a plethora of organic magnesium compounds never before observed on Mars, which could bring new evidence about the geochemical processes that shaped Mars’ deep interior while possibly making a link between the Red Planet’s mineral evolution and carbon cycle.
NASA’s upcoming Mars Sample Return mission could provide even greater insights into both the organic and mineral composition of the Red Planet. Dr. Schmitt-Kopplin recently told Universe Today that such a mission could be just as successful as Japan’s Hayabusa2 asteroid sample return mission since they “were able to show that meteorites reflect nicely the chemistry found in the return mission, we probably will be able to do the same.”
Tissint has a total weight of 7 kilograms (15 pounds), and is currently the fifth meteorite classified as being of Martian origin, with a 2012 study estimating it was ejected from Mars approximately 700,000 years ago from some type of violent event. Tissint draws some parallels with one of the most famous meteorites of Martian origin found on Earth, ALH 84001, which was the subject of much scrutiny in the late 1990s when it was initially believed to contain microfossils, findings that since been rendered inconclusive.
“ALH 84001 was one of the most studied Mars meteorites because it was found in Antarctica and thus was ‘conserved’ in the ice with low contamination,” Dr. Schmitt-Kopplin recently told Universe Today. “That time looking at molecules of life in the diverse chemistry of that meteorite and seeing in addition biological-like features in microscopy led to a too rapid conclusion of having found Life on Mars.”

What new secrets of Mars will Tissint, future meteorites, and the future samples returned from Mars teach us about the Red Planet? Only time will tell, and this is why we science!
Watch This 12-Year Timelapse of Exoplanets Orbiting Their Star

Watch This 12-Year Timelapse of Exoplanets Orbiting Their Star
Back in 2008, astronomers made a big announcement: for the first time, they had taken pictures of a multi-planet solar system, much like ours, orbiting another star. At the time, the star system, named HR8799 was known to have three planets, but follow-up observations a year later revealed a fourth world.
Astronomers have continued to watch this intriguing star system, and now, using observations from the last 12 years, astrophysicist Jason Wang has put together a time lapse video showing the orbital motions of the four planets.
“Astronomical events either happen too quickly or too slowly to capture in a movie,” said Wang.” But this video shows planets moving on a human time scale. I hope it enables people to enjoy something wondrous.”
The dusty young star HR8799 ch is 140 light years away and about 1.5 times the size of our Sun. Even more intriguing is that HR8799 is visible to the naked eye. It has a magnitude 5.96 and it is located inside the western edge of the great square of Pegasus almost exactly halfway between Scheat and Markab.
The planets were imaged using high-contrast, near-infrared adaptive optics observations with the Keck and Gemini telescopes. In a press release from Northwestern University, Wang said he was instantly fascinated by the system when the news broke in 2008, and has been watching it ever since. He and his colleagues applied for time on the W. M. Keck Observatory, located on the top of Mauna Kea in Hawaii, to observe the system each year.
Using 12 years of imaging data, Wang put together the time lapse video, which shows the entire time period in a condensed 4.5-second time lapse.
“There’s nothing to be gained scientifically from watching the orbiting systems in a time lapse video, but it helps others appreciate what we’re studying,” Wang said. “It can be difficult to explain the nuances of science with words. But showing science in action helps others understand its importance.”

The outer planet orbits inside a dusty disk, much like our own Kuiper belt. Astronomers says it is one of the most massive disks known around any star within 300 light years of Earth. There is an additional debris disk just inside the orbit of the innermost planet – which was the fourth planet to be found. Astronomers say that would be room in the inner system for terrestrial planets. The planet nearest the star takes about 45 Earth years to make one revolution. The farthest planet, on the other hand, takes nearly 500 years to orbit the star.
Wang and his collaborators aren’t finished making observations of this system, and now are examining the light emitted from the star and its planets in order to better understand what they are made of.
“In astrophysics, most of the time we are doing data analysis or testing hypotheses,” he said. “But this is the fun part of science. It inspires awe.”
Pole Shift Is Happening! Earth's Magnetic Field Is Getting Weaker! Feb 2023
Pole Shift Is Happening! Earth's Magnetic Field Is Getting Weaker! Feb 2023
Pole Shift Is Happening! Earth’s Magnetic Field Is Getting Weaker! Feb 2023
If you are not aware there are two North Poles.
True North (located on a map)
Magnetic North (the magnetic North force that a compass points to)
The Magnetic North Pole moves and bounces around, however it has been making its way to this magnetic anomaly located in Russia. The Magnetic Pole started moving back in the 1800s, but always seemed to move and then bounce back and repeat. However, over the last 11 years, the magnetic pole has been moving very fast and is currently moving a rate of 5.25 miles ever 30 days!
According to experts, past Pole Reversals happened every 12,000 years. However, experts say that a full reversal has not taken place for 36,000 years! Talk about overdue.
It is currently 71 miles from a specific point knows at the 40 degree marker. At a rate of 5 miles per month, that puts the magnetic pole position at the 40 degree mark by March of 2023!
What happens to the Poles at the 40 degree mark?
Well, like any two magnets that attract to one another, a stronger magnet can make another flip completely. Based on what I have researched, that 40 degree marker is where the pull becomes so strong that it can cause a reversal, or some kind of permanent shift; or could flip the North and South magnetic or electromagnetic grid.
We do know that the electromagnetic field that protects life on earth (whether the earth is a sphere or a flat plane) is weakening as this Pole moves toward this anomaly in Russia. During the reversal the electromagnetic grid will be affected. The weather could change, atmosphere may change, even if temporarily; some say there will be something else completely, but let's get into this further.
How can this Pole Reversal or Shift change things?
Weather
Will you live in tropical weather if you live in the North East of the USA? I have no idea! However, some reports say that we are to go into the opposite; and experience an arctic freeze like many earth cycles in the past. Other theories are that a Great Solar Flash could take place; some say it will be the end; and others, like NASA say, "Though they sound scary, pole flips can take a long time to occur and pose no immediate threat."
If NASA says, "everything is fine"... it is fine...right...right?
In my experience and research, I have found coverup after coverup when it comes to NASA or any space program. One thing I CAN agree with NASA on is that this can change our weather patterns.
Our weather patterns have been changing for years and strange weather patterns have been increasing as time goes on; more earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanoes and more have been on the uptick across the board! Are these related? Yes, common sense would tell you they are; but common sense seems to be missing in our sciences these days.
Schumann Resonance
Additionally, changes in the Schumann Resonance could greatly effect humans as a whole! Why? Well studies show that this frequency that the earth emits is connected to the human body, like a life force. It is true! The frequency or natural earth heartbeat is at about 7.8 Hz. When the human being lacks this frequency of 7.8 Hz, it can become ill both physically and mentally. Say Whaaaaat??!
That's right, you cannot live without this Schumann Resonance and the Earth's frequency, at least not for long and not in a healthy way. Since, the earth and the human body are connected, it would make sense that the body will be effected by this pole reversal since the Schumann Resonance is measured based on the atmospheric electromagnetic resonance. If the frequency of the atmosphere is changed, it will have effects on humans in some way.
You are vibrating particles, everything you see is frequency; just vibrating at different rates. Changes in earths Frequency will effect the human body, but will it effect it in a negative or positive way? That has yet to be determined, seen, experienced and recorded for future generations. Until then, we wait and hope that someone will come up with some more answers.
Conclusion and Final Thoughts on all this...
There is no way our changes in weather; the uptick in natural disaster; the desire for populations control and the FACT that the Pole Reversal is not even on the News are completely unrelated. The push to convince people that "Global Warming" will be our demise is, at this point, BOLOGNI!
The FACTS are this:
Main stream news has not reported on this at all!
NASA is basically reporting there is "nothing to see here."
No one at any of the Observatories are reporting on this either but ONE! Maverick Star Observatory
This has not happened for 36,000 years! An epic moment for humans on Earth and NO ONE even knows!
The changes in the poles will effect the electromagnetic grid, the Schumann resonance and all life forms in some way.
For Fun, here are some THEORIES of what may happen:
The Great Solar Flash a.k.a The Event
Complete chaos and catastrophe
Reversal of the weather patterns
The sun will rise in the west and set in the east
Complete ice age
3 days of darkness will commence
The veil will be lifted to all spiritual realms and dimensions
Additional lands and realms outside of our knowledge will be unlocked
There will be two suns in our sky, the current one and one from the central sun (inner earth)
The Return of Jesus (Jeshua), the end of all lies and the beginning of truth; Revelation
Some will unlock powers they never knew they had such as telepathy, healing and psychic abilities.
Who owns these pyramid-shaped UFOs that are flying in restricted airspace?
Who owns these pyramid-shaped UFOs that are flying in restricted airspace?
Over the years, reports of pyramid-shaped UFOs have surfaced online.
For example on December 18, 2009, a large triangle-shaped craft hovered above Red Square in Moscow and on December 18, 2018 a pyramid-shaped UFO was spotted over the Pentagon. That same year a leaked footage surfaced online of a meeting at the UN where the pyramid-shaped UFO was also discussed.
During the meeting Maria Garces said that on December at 4.07 pm an extraterrestrial contact occurred. A metal object, shaped like a pyramid appeared over the Pentagon, Washington DC, USA. The unidentified object with a diameter around 100 meters rotated around its own axis at an altitude of around 500 meters.
NASA operational task group, specializing in the receiving and processing of space data; received incoming data from the object. The data (information from the radars, the visual information and the fixation of the radio signals incoming from the UFO). After analyzing all data of the object that hovered over the Pentagon, NASA explained that the object can be identified as an craft of unknown origin, hypothetically of extraterrestrial origin.
The question is, who are they, where are they from, and what is their intention? Moreover, while the US shoots down an alleged Chinese spy balloon with a stinger missile (if you have to believe the hyped stories of the mainstream media about the Chinese spy balloon) then why are these unknown craft equipped with advanced and sophisticated technology allowed to fly with impunity within restricted airspace.

UFO at 37,000′ – Captain Delgado’s Amazing UFO Sightings
Captain Delgado’s Amazing UFO Sightings
In recent years, UFO sightings have become a hot topic of discussion among people from all over the world. With the advancement of technology, more and more individuals are capturing videos and images of unidentified flying objects. One such individual is Captain Erik Delgado, who has recently captured several videos and photos of UFO sightings. Chris Leto, a popular YouTuber, recently interviewed Captain Delgado and shared his videos and photos with the world.
Captain Delgado’s videos and photos show an unidentified flying object moving in the sky, at times changing its shape and color. He captured these images while flying his airplane and was amazed to see the object in the sky. According to Captain Delgado, the object did not have any strobes or beacon lights, which are commonly seen on aircraft. The object remained in the sky for several minutes and at times seemed to be moving away from his airplane.
The first of Delgado’s four videos is around four minutes long, with the object appearing in and out of the clouds. The second video is around one minute long and shows the object changing colors. The third video is around 30 seconds long and shows the object turning colors and moving away from the airplane. The fourth video shows the object as a teardrop-shaped object. Chris Leto has cropped each one of Delgado’s photos to provide a better view of the object.
It’s hard to say what the object captured by Captain Delgado was, but it’s an amazing account nonetheless. The videos and photos show an object moving in the sky, changing shape, and color, and moving away from the airplane. This account raises many questions about the possibility of extraterrestrial life and the existence of UFO’s.
In conclusion, Captain Erik Delgado’s UFO sightings have been captured on video and photos and have recently been shared with the world by Chris Leto. The videos and photos show an unidentified flying object moving in the sky, changing shape, and color, and moving away from the airplane. This account raises many questions about the possibility of extraterrestrial life and the existence of UFO’s. The footage is intriguing and has left many people wondering what the object could have been. Whether it was an extraterrestrial spacecraft or a weather phenomenon, it’s a fascinating account that has caught the attention of many.
Could NASA’s Studies on Hibernating Squirrels Help Astronauts?
Could NASA’s Studies on Hibernating Squirrels Help Astronauts?
Can studying sleeping Arctic ground squirrels help astronauts and further NASA’s mission? Dr. Kelly Drew and her students studied hibernating squirrels and their ability to retain muscle and bone mass during extended hibernation and they think it could apply to astronauts.
Drew, a professor of chemistry and biochemistry at the University of Alaska, Fairbanks in Fairbanks, Alaska was awarded funds though through NASA Space Grant. Through the Alaska Space Grant Consortium, over 200 students and faculty have had the opportunity to further their research in areas such as - code and testing of autonomous systems, cameras to detect free electrons, and studying various characteristics of glaciers.

Lessons learned through the study of hibernating Arctic ground squirrels can help researchers understand how the human body functions in a weightless environment. These animals are unique as they hibernate for eight to nine months out of the year while slowing their metabolism so much that their body temperature can drop below freezing without suffering the usual side effects like freezing, muscle loss, or loss of bone density during the long winter months.
This research could be used to help future missions, from the extreme of medically induced hibernation for long term space missions, protecting astronauts from cabin fever, ionizing radiation, and much more. It could also prove effective in preventing muscle and bone loss in zero gravity.

The work done with the Alaska Space Grant consortium, although not the primary focus of Drew’s research, has presented her with opportunities to explore ways of creating human applications from the work with the ground squirrels. She has dedicated a great deal of time and funding research into the work of hibernation in humans for neurocritical care applications, including medications that could aid in the process. This could mean that patients who have suffered from a stroke or heart attack could be placed in medically induced hibernation (keeping the body temperature cooler) to slow their metabolism until they can be transported to a hospital to receive care, which could significantly improve medical outcomes. For the past decade Drew has mentored interns through opportunities provided by Space Grant and NASA Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCOR) program.
Space Grant and NASA EPSCOR are a part of NASA STEM Engagement that strives to increase K-12 involvement in NASA projects, enhance higher education, support underrepresented communities, strengthen online education, and boost NASA's contribution to informal education. The intended outcome is a generation prepared to code, calculate, design, and discover its way to a new era of American innovation.
Astronomers have captured a spectacular, ongoing collision between at least three galaxy clusters. Data from NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory, ESA’s (European Space Agency’s) XMM-Newton, and a trio of radio telescopes is helping astronomers sort out what is happening in this jumbled scene. Collisions and mergers like this are the main way that galaxy clusters can grow into the gigantic cosmic edifices seen today. These also act as the largest particle accelerators in the universe.
The giant galaxy cluster forming from this collision is Abell 2256, located 780 million light-years from Earth. This composite image of Abell 2256 combines X-rays from Chandra and XMM in blue with radio data collected by the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT), the Low Frequency Array (LOFAR), and the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) all in red, plus optical and infrared data from Pan-STARRs in white and pale yellow.

Astronomers studying this object are trying to tease out what has led to this unusual-looking structure. Each telescope tells a different part of the story. Galaxy clusters are some of the biggest objects in the universe containing hundreds or even thousands of individual galaxies. In addition, they contain enormous reservoirs of superheated gas, with temperatures of several million degrees Fahrenheit. Only X-ray telescopes like Chandra and XMM can see this hot gas. A labeled version of the figure shows gas from two of the galaxy clusters, with the third blended too closely to separate from the others.
The radio emission in this system arises from an even more complex set of sources. The first are the galaxies themselves, in which the radio signal is generated by particles blasting away in jets from supermassive black holes at their centers. These jets are either shooting into space in straight and narrow lines (those labeled “C” and “I” in the annotated image, using the astronomer’s naming system) or slowed down as the jets interact with gas they are running into, creating complex shapes and filaments (“A”, “B,” and “F”). Source F contains three sources, all created by a black hole in a galaxy aligning with the left-most source of this trio.
Radio waves are also coming from huge filamentary structures (labeled "relic"), mostly located to the north of the radio-emitting galaxies, likely generated when the collision created shock waves and accelerated particles in the gas across over two million light-years. A paper analyzing this structure was published earlier this year by Kamlesh Rajpurohit from the University of Bologna in Italy in the March 2022 issue of The Astrophysical Journal, and is available online. This is Paper I in an ongoing series studying different aspects of this colliding galaxy cluster system.
Finally, there is a "halo" of radio emission located near the center of the collision. Because this halo overlaps with the X-ray emission and is dimmer than the filamentary structure and the galaxies, another radio image has been produced to emphasize the faint radio emission. Paper II led by Rajpurohit, recently published in the journal Astronomy and Astrophysics and available online, presents a model that the halo emission may be caused by the reacceleration of particles by rapid changes in the temperature and density of the gas as the collision and merging of the clusters proceed. This model, however, is unable to explain all the features of the radio data, highlighting the need for more theoretical study of this and similar objects.
Paper III by Rajpurohit and collaborators will study the galaxies producing radio waves in Abell 2256. This cluster contains an unusually large number of such galaxies, possibly because the collision and merger are triggering the growth of supermassive black holes and consequent eruptions. More details about the LOFAR image of Abell 2256 will be reported in an upcoming paper by Erik Osinga.

Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over Alabama, Arizona, California, Florida, I, Missouri, New Jersey, New Mexico, Texas. And Washington.
Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over Australia, China, France, India Mexico, South Africa, and England in the United Kingdom.
The purpose of these files is to report the UFO eyewitness and photo/video evidence that occurs on a daily basis around the world and in space. These Files assume that extraterrestrial intelligent life not only exists, but my hypothesis is that the over a thousand UFOs reported each month represent technologically advanced craft conducting surveillance of Earth. I personally became interested in UFOs when London Control ordered me to intercept one over England while flying for the US Air Force. Under Project Blue Book, the US Air Force investigated UFOs for more than twenty years; and we continue this advanced research. I believe the God of the universe has spread life throughout the cosmos and UFO’s are visiting us in ever-increasing numbers.

Douglas Aviation Think Tank Held the Secret of UFOs
Donald Douglas with DC-8 Commercial Jet
Donald Douglas, CEO of Douglas Aircraft founded the Douglas Aircraft Company in 1921 and built various aircraft successfully for years. Under his leadership, the company became one of the leaders of the commercial aircraft industry, engaging in a decades-long struggle for supremacy with Boeing Aircraft Company. Douglas gained the upper hand, particularly with his revolutionary and highly successful Douglas DC-3 airliner and its equally popular World War II military transport version, the C-47; at the start of the war. His airplanes made up 80% of all commercial aircraft in service. In 1942, Douglas had a sighting of UFOs over Southern California and spoke frequently of the reality of UFOs. He studied UFOs and setup an engineering team at Douglas Aircraft to study UFOs. William Tomkins was part of the think tank studying UFOs. From its very inception the men of RAND knew much about saucers. RAND was conceived by Donald Douglas and General Curtis LeMay above (the US Air Force’s Chief of Development) and General Hap Arnold (considered the “father” of the modern U.S. Air Force.)
RAND Corporation was established in 1946 by the US Army Air Force as Project RAND (for Research and Development) and is today registered as a nonprofit organization. In May of 1948 RAND was separated from Douglas Aircraft and became its own operating entity. Among RAND’s earliest government reports was the release of the enigmatically titled, “Preliminary Design of an Experimental World-Circling Spaceship.” LeMay expressed deep interest and concern about the flying saucer phenomena. More than this, LeMay himself was a keeper of the purported 1947 Roswell UFO crash debris. This was revealed in a stunningly candid interview with the late U.S. Senator Barry Goldwater, who was a U.S. Presidential Candidate in 1964, a Major General and Command Pilot. General LeMay became the Air Force Chief of Staff, professional associate and close friend of Goldwater.
LeMay’s UFO involvement was related by Goldwater in a live worldwide broadcast with CNN’s Larry King in 1994. Goldwater informed King that he knew the truth to be far different. He knew this, he explained, because in the 1960 s he had approached LeMay about the crashed UFO issue.
General Curtis LeMay
Senator Goldwater -who no doubt himself held the highest security clearances- told Larry King: “I think at Wright-Patterson, if you could get into certain places, you’ll find what the Air Force and the government knows about UFOs. Reportedly, a spaceship landed. It was all hushed up.
I called Curtis LeMay and I said, ‘General, I know we have a room at Wright Patterson where you put all of this secret stuff. Could I go in there? I’ve never heard General LeMay get mad, but he got madder than hell at me, cussed me out and said, ‘Don’t ever ask me that question again!”Goldwater never did.
Senator Barry Goldwater
Despite LeMays turndown, Goldwater dicsovered a great deal about UFOs.
Running for President on the Republican ticket and a Senator he often watched our rockets heading into space and saw the UFOs that frequently were present.
Anthony Bragalia writes, “Since the 1940’s the U.S. government has quietly engaged one of its key defense and intelligence agency contractors as a secret UFO think tank.” New investigation reveals that the esteemed RAND Corporation is a “think tank” that has given far more than “passing thought” to things extraterrestrial.
Rand’s hidden history of UFO involvement has been discovered to include work in policy analysis; evaluation of evidence and in advising on the potential technological advantages achieved from UFO study. Telling connections have also been found between RAND and the Roswell crash event of 1947.
The RAND Corporation is funded through government contracts, university collaborators. Over 30 Nobel Prize winners have been employed by RAND. From physics to economics, the 2000 person think tank provides high-level information and evaluation to the U.S. government. RAND has conducted studies in UFO studies, weapons development, intelligence gathering and the design of sensitive underground installations for the USAF.
Battelle Memorial Institute
“Like RAND- Battelle Memorial Institute was heavily engaged by government to study UFOs.” It now appears that Battelle metallurgists likely analyzed the Roswell memory metal retrieved from the 1947 crash. That conclusion was drawn from a “reverse engineering of information” of the literature on shape recovery metal; by the revealing statements of two U.S. Generals; through the confession of analysis by a senior Battelle scientist and by establishing other connections.
But perhaps the most interesting of these telling connections is this: The Director of Battelle at the time of the Roswell crash -Clyde E. Williams- simultaneously sat on the Board of Trustees of the RAND Corporation! Thanks to Deep Secrets of a UFO Think Tank Exposed! by Anthony Bragalia
Keeping it all in the Family with Ben Rich
Benjamin Rich helped to lead aerospace giant Lockheed Martin as President of Lockheed Advanced Aeronautics. He oversaw the ultra-secret Lockheed “Skunk Works” division where he spearheaded the development of the Stealth bomber and universally acknowledged as “the father of Stealth technology.” Ben Rich stated some extremely revealing things about the reality and nature of UFOs before he passed on. In a letter to his friend and associate John Andrews he replies to Andrew’s observations about the UFO phenomena. Andrews had written a letter to Rich in which Andrews says, “I believe with certainty in manmade UFOs. I am tending to believe there are also extraterrestrial UFOs.”
Rich -In handwritten letter- replies to Andrews, “Yes, I am a believer in both categories.” Andrews was a forensic illustrator and aviation model-maker. Before his own death, Andrews related that Rich went further in privately explaining that, “there are two types of UFOs, the ones we build and the ones ‘they’ build.”
Rich told Andrews of his concern that the public should not be told. But Rich told Andrews he had recently changed his mind on this and that, “those involved in dealing with the ‘subject’ could represent a bigger problem to citizens than knowledge of the visitors themselves.” Just before he died, Andrews says that Rich confirmed to him that “items” were recovered at the crash at Roswell in 1947. Rich also told associate John Goodall, “We have things at Area 51 that you and the best minds in the world won’t even be able to conceive for the next 30-40 years.” He stated, “We have the technology to take ET home.” In fact Rich gave numerous clues and hints about the alien reality to several people before he passed.

William Tompkins ET Contact
William Tompkins states, “That our planet has been a battleground for warring extraterrestrial cultures for thousands of years. The result has been wars, destruction and attempts to hinder our progress. Recently there has been a great spike in technical innovation due to help from friendly aliens. He believes that perhaps he and many other uniquely talented people have been gifted with skills that more closely reflect what human intelligence is capable of when not held back by outside forces. Regardless of your opinion of the UFO phenomenon, Mr. Tompkins has taken on this subject with energy and claims he designed eight cylinder shaped craft 600 feet long carrying smaller fighting craft”. He has done extensive research into extraterrestrials and UFOs.
“Selected by Extraterrestrials.
“Tomkins claims the Extraterrestrials also recently, helped develop a great spike in technical innovation in the US. most of the Mars life is underground in various caverns. Some human’s ancestors are from other star systems.”
Naval Air Station San Diego was commanded by Admiral Abaca who had 29 Navy spies in Germany. They claimed Hitler had signed an agreement with Reptilians which gave Nazis UFOs and life lengthen capability.
German Haunebu UFO
Navy operatives would return to in a small conference room in a tower at the US base. Data was put into packages and flown to these to top secret Naval Research Facilities , aviation companies, and universities. They were to develop parts of UFOs at Douglas, Lockheed, Northrop, Grumman, JPL, etc.
After the war, some German scientists and their technology were brought to the US in Project Paperclip along with their advanced technology. Tomkins e claims we were able to bring the Roswell alien craft down using an advanced technology.
YB-49 Flying Wing
The YB-49 featured a flying wing design was a jet-powered development of the earlier, piston-engine Northrop XB-35. The flying wing was passed over in favor of the more conventional Convair B-36 piston-driven design. Design work performed in the development of lying wings proved to be valuable decades later in the development of the B-2 stealth bomber, which entered service in the early 1990s.
Technically they had won the competition against the B-36. The Northrop flying wings were more difficult to pick up on radar and could fly much faster and was an excellent bombing platform. Tompkins frequently visited China Lake Naval Station that has a large cavern underground and a network of rail systems underground. Bill Tompkins said, he drove up to Lake Isabella on the highway to Walker Pass where his family of five were abducted. They lost time but Tompkins no recollection of what happened.
William Tomkins joined along with Admiral Webster and developed a Navy League Council from 1982 to-2000 in Southern Oregon. Former Navy officers had been seeing UFOs coming in and out of Mt. Shasta in Northern California. They flew their private planes to attempt to locate the doors that opened to let the craft pass though. Children were being contacted and met with an alien lady would use holograms to explain ET in Medford, Oregon. Many had taken ETs lessons and later joined the Navy.
Robert Shiepe Discovered Tiny UAP/UFOs
Numerous Black Tiny 10 inch UFO/UAPs Around Heo8c90ter
Robert Shiepe is the discovery and creator of a new subliminal photography that makes it possible to find and record unknown, fast small moving objects. Robert Shiepe (pictured with his cameras above) lives in Marina Del Rey, Los Angeles. In 2017, he noticed some new unusual flying activity by the Army, Coast Guard and LA Police (LAPD choppers). He has recorded and documented over 4000 videos. The authorities are now and have been chasing an uncatchable drone approximately the size of a football. These drones are nearly invisible to the human eye (too fast) but not to the camera. For obvious reasons, this story is not yet in the news. He has personally given this information to the echelon of Aviation and the intelligence community and SETI and the Air Force.
Robert Shiepe, a Pharmacist, is the inventor and founder of the first mail-order pharmacy in the United States in 1986.
Robert Shiepe writes, “These small drone-like objects here and now will be referred to as ”Dragons” because their silhouette resembles that of a ‘dragon fly’. These dragons have been chased by many agencies, over 3000 sorties. These dragons are also being recorded by at least three ocean vessels and have been recorded in Marina del Rey and north to Venice beach.”
M134 GAU-17 “Vulcan” cannon is a six-barreled
“Thank you for posting my UAP dragon photos in your MUFON news report. It is a great honor to have earned your trust. Obviously this is a new science and it will take about another year before people will understand these dragons. its exciting that we are hear to share this new advance information with others. Again these UAP activities are happening everyday in Marina del Rey.
Seahawk mh60 Romeo Hrliocopter
January 12 2023, we had a powerful video day. The Government / Dept of Homeland Security / DHS , sent in a lot of helicopters , like the coast guard , police, CBS news chopper an the navy Seahawk mh60 Romeo. It was crazy over here. The Seahawk came in ready for bear. the pilot and the gunner had their doors open. The gunner did not have a machine gun but a Gatling gun. I was lucky enough to get the video. check it out and tell me what you think. Also is it normal for a Seahawk to fly over Los Angeles with a gunner with a Gatling gun ? seems a bit too much..
The Office of the Director of National Intelligence released a new Jan 14, 2023 report about UFO sightings in the United States. The US government has received over 350 UFO sighting reports since March 2021, half of which remain unexplained.
Bruce Smith writes,Many years ago, that then-vice president of engineering at Seagate Technology told me of his earlier US Air Force experience with UFOs when he was assigned to a Strategic Air Command unit. He told me that SAC and USAF pilots would often detect and track UFOs, but were ordered to not submit written reports of sightings. For SAC, the “unusual flight patters” of interest occasionally included UFOs’ accelerating to great speed in one direction and suddenly making sharp (e.g., 90-degree) turns at undiminished speed — seemingly in non-adherence to fundamental laws of physics. He said that the UFOs’ flight speeds sometimes substantially exceeded the capabilities of any human-built flying craft or device then (and now) in existence. Radar operators were instructed to deny they had UFOs on their screens and to divert the aircraft away from the UFOs.

International UFO Congress a Success
by Rich Scheck
I recently attended the International UFO Congress in Mesa, AZ. I had a good time and met members of the UFO Community who shared my passionate search for the truth regarding the Phenomena. Most of the speakers were competent but few demonstrated the willingness to push the envelope in the spirit of Hal Puthoff’s call for an “aggressive forensic mindset!”John Ramirez was inspiring to the extent his thorough review of the pending legislation before Congress. evoked the same goal of transparency many have promoted for years. While there, I bought 2 old copies of Open Minds, the now expired UFO News and Investigations Journal to which Alejandro Rojas, one of the Congress organizers, was a major contributor.
Dr. and Colonel John Alexander
Issue #17 from December/January 2013 had a long article by John Alexander in which he gave a thorough overview of contemporary Ufology. In it, he echoed the same theme from his excellent 2011 book, UFOs: Myths, Conspiracies and Realities, that despite the clever efforts by some to promote wild theories regarding secret government research, none existed. Fascinating, but 100% wrong! Concurrent with him elaborating in great detail all the reasons why such speculations were misguided or malevolent myths, the DOD was in fact engaging in just such research into “high strangeness” and UAPs as part of AAWSAP and AATIP! What is key here is that despite his enthusiasm for the topic and elite status among researchers called the “invisible college” by Jacques Vallee, Alexander was ostensibly ignorant of what was actually going on because most of this type of activity is highly compartmentalized, hidden in black budgeted special access programs tightly controlled by a few with “need to know” clearances.
Jack: I think Alexander was simply lying as a disinformation agent for the forces described by Yuri Bezmenov as he does consistently now in regard to the truth about Donald Trump and he 2020 election et-al. And similarly, it follows that this process also entails much of this advanced space technology being under the provenance of a few aerospace corporations and NOT the government which is why the Wilson/Davis Memo controversy is right on target! Regarding that pending whistleblower protection legislation, it incorporates many of the points I raised in a memo prepared by me for Richard Dolan analyzing the one page “leak” he made of the classified portion of the UAP Task
Editor’s Note:
The Air Force had a policy of only briefing four star generals and a few high ranking personnel the Four stars had personally cleared concerning UFOs. Unless Alexander was cleared by four stars very little would be available to him. A close friend of mine who had three stars was never briefed about UFOs despite being in charge of developing B-2 bombers.
Force Report of 2021.
In it, I challenged the legality of special access programs and the Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) used to insulate the public and everyone else from full disclosure that blocks transparency under a veil of secrecy. Despite the optimism of Ramirez, Hoagland, Mellon and others, I remain skeptical that the US Congress will be as aggressive as they predict. It will be extremely difficult to force the government to reveal what it knows, much less getting those who may actually hold the secrets to undermine their proprietary interest by sharing patents or technology.
As for Mr. Alexander, he has done the best he can to serve the UFO Community within the constraints I described. Hopefully, he now realizes how extreme is the duplicity and extensive is the secrecy surrounding this incredibly important story. With regard to my assertion that Israel is playing a significant role in this conversation, I invite Blumenthal, Kean, Cooper, the NY Times as well as the rest of the UFO Community to ponder what John Ford meant when he was quoted in the 2015 book by William Birnes, UFO Hunters 2, paraphrasing:
General Haim Eshed Director of Space
“Israel intends to form an international coalition to expose the US coverup of the UFO Phenomena!” Haim Eshed is a visiting professor of aeronautics and retired brigadier general in Israeli Military Intelligence claims US astronauts work with ETs on a Mars base but was instructed to remain hushed about it on orders of the Galactic Federation. All that while Zionist Barry Chamish states that Israel is the country most frequented by UFOs; Uri Gellar says they are quite real; Harvard’s Avi Loeb of the Galileo Project was trained by Israeli intelligence; and that tiny ME nation was able to send a probe to the Moon in 2019. As we revisit John Alexander’s remarks from a decade ago, we must keep “open minds” about all the possibilities involved despite what Rojas or anyone else may think is appropriate to a full discussion of this fascinating topic.
Julien Geffray wrote: “Such asymmetry can be engineered within the fields themselves as I understand, or by tweaking the physical geometry of the fuselage, or with a combination of both. However, I wonder if the larger area of that figure should always be at the stern (underneath when hovering above the ground) or if it could be made on the contrary at the bow of the aircraft (top area while hovering)? “ Jack Sarfatti states No, no. No tweaking physical geometry, just the control fields suffice. The idea is that the fuselage meta-surface is tiled with meta-atoms which are tiny essentially pumped LCR oscillators like in Chi 23/24 of Feynman Vol. 1. Oddly enough I had this image back at ISSO with Creon Levit et-al 1999-2000 knowing nothing about meta -materials.
Scientist Jack Sarfatti
The relative phase between input EM field and output gravity field is individually controlled at each meta-atom. This requires at least a quantum AI to sense and control the value of cos (relative phase) + or – ~ 1 for gravity or antigravity near field at each meta-atom “lattice point.’ Therefore, any part of the fuselage can act as a “nose” or a “tail” explaining the sudden ZERO G-Force bizarre zig zag motions Fravor and other pilots report.
Since the early 2000s, the DoD has pursued hypersonic weapons development as a part of the conventional Prompt Global Strike Program. These efforts are accelerating in response to advances of global peer capabilities. Radiance is proud to be part of the accelerated effort to field both U.S. capability and counter threat hypersonic systems. We are part of the Army’s effort to field a land-based hypersonic missile. We also support efforts to understand and counter adversary capabilities.
During the war, The Soviet Union supplied 7,658 SAMs to North Vietnam, and their defense forces conducted about 5,800 launches, usually in multiples of three. By the war’s end, the U.S lost a total of 3,374 aircraft in combat operations; however, the U.S states only 205 of those aircraft and 15 B-52s were lost to North Vietnamese (Soviet) S-75 surface-to-air missiles.[33]
150,000+ UFO Sighting Reports
47 Years in Operation National UFO Reporting Center
Center Director – Peter Davenport
Peter Davenport has been director of the National UFO Reporting Center (NUFORC) since 1994. He has also served as the director of investigations for the Washington Chapter of the Mutual UFO Network. He often presents lectures on UFO cases and has been interested in e UFOs since his early boyhood. He experienced his first UFO sighting over the St. Louis municipal airport in the summer of 1954, and he investigated his first UFO case during the summer of 1965 in Exeter, New Hampshire. He has also been witness to several subsequent anomalous events, possibly UFO related, including a dramatic sighting over Baja California in February 1990
Peter received his education at Stanford University in California, where he earned bachelor’s degrees in both Russian and biology, as well as a translator’s certificate in Russian translation. His graduate education was completed at the University of Washington in Seattle, where he earned an M.S. degree in the genetics and biochemistry and an M.B.A. degree in finances.
Peter has worked as a college instructor, a commercial fisherman, a Russian translator in the Soviet Union, a fisheries observer aboard Soviet fishing vessels, a flight instructor, and a businessman. Peter was the founding president of a Seattle-based biotechnology company, which currently employs over 300 scientists and technicians.
MADASR
Multiple Anomaly Detection and Automated Recording
Those of you who diligently scan NUFORC reports have likely noticed references to MADAR nodes, for example this report from May of 2022. MADAR stands for Multiple Anomaly Detection and Automated Recording, and these reports document alerts triggered by a network of special sensors placed in strategic locations around the globe. The sensors are designed to detect electromagnetic and ionospheric disturbances that may be caused by UFOs. The project is unique in that it uses a scientific approach to collecting data and analyzing it, rather than relying on anecdotal evidence. This has led to a high level of credibility for the project and its findings.
Francis Ridge, the the archivist and webmaster for NICAP (National Investigations Committee on Aerial Phenomena) and a former Indiana MUFON (Mutual UFO Network) state director, developed the technology in the 60’s, and has been actively improving with it since its inception. Ridge has been instrumental in promoting the project and its findings to a wider audience through his extensive network of contacts in the UFO research community.

UFO Detection Using Passive Radar Technology
At the 2022 MUFON Symposium, Peter Davenport and Mitch Randall gave an update on the project to build a UFO detection system utilizing passive radar. We were excited to announce that the construction and testing of such a system is finally underway, under the auspices of the Galileo Project at Harvard. UFO detection using passive radar technology
Its purpose is to alert the UFO community to the fact that new developments in passive, multi-static radar, and in related technologies, will permit,, remote, real-time detection of UFO’s in the near-Earth environment. also, it will permit determination of their flight characteristic, e.g. velocity, acceleration, flight path, and perhaps size. The technology is real. Peter’s original 2004 paper can be read Microsoft Word – MUFONPresentation.doc (nuforc.org)
UFOs ‘Flew out o Underwater Base Near Guantanamo Bay, Cuba
underwater alien base
A former U.S. Marine has made bizarre claims that he and his comrades saw dozens of huge, hi-tech spacecraft flying out of an ‘underwater alien base’ next to the Guantanamo Naval Base in the late Sixties.
The Marine – who has chosen to remain unnamed – claims that he was forbidden to talk about the shimmering 100 foot craft he had seen, and claims he saw intelligence officers filming the craft. The interview comes courtesy of UFO researchers MUFON. The Marine said, ‘All of us marines were amazed at the amount of UFO activity over and around this base.
Underwater Base
‘Virtually every night UFOs were flying overhead with altitudes of less than 300 feet.’
‘When I stood guard duty on the south side of the base, I witnessed on many, many nights UFOs landing and taking off out of the ocean.’ ‘There were large blue lights moving around after their landing in the ocean and then slowly dimming down as they obviously descended deeper.’
The encounters occurred between 1968 and 1969. He says that the machines he saw were not flying saucers, describing one as a ‘huge white cloud with a blue/white, baby blue pulsating light in the middle of it.’ From Jack Sarfatti.
China at War with U.S.
General Chi Haotian
Genera Chi Haotian writes,” To Communist China solving the ‘issue of America’ is the key to solving all other issues. First, this makes it possible for us to have many people migrate to the United States and even establish another China under the same leadership of the CCP. America was originally discovered by the ancestors of the yellow race, but Columbus gave credit to the White race. We the descendants of the Chinese nation are ENTITLED to the possession of the land! It is historical destiny that China and United States will come into unavoidable confrontation on a narrow path and fight. In the long run, the relationship of China and the United States is one of a life-and-death struggle. Of course, right now it is not the time to openly break up with them yet.”
The Chinese Communist media tells the people they are now at war with the US. Our reform and opening to the outside world still rely on their capital and technology. We still need America. Therefore, we must do everything we can to promote our relationship with America, learn from America in all aspects and use America as an example to reconstruct our country. Only by using special means to ‘clean up’ America will we be able to lead the Chinese people there. Only by using non-destructive weapons that can kill many people will we be able to reserve America for ourselves.” Thanks to Chi Haotian, Vice-Chairman of China’s Military Commission
We know no travel was allowed from Wuhan within China but hundreds of thousands traveled all over the world carrying the COVID-19
Don’t drink Chinese Wine, fish, Soy, since some food contains sharp minute virus size nano structures that can cause intentional problems, Toxic dog food some with US labels, White Rabbit Creamy Candy, contained deadly melamine, Toxic toothpaste and Radioactive drywall.
So far the US has recalled 338 Chinese products overall this year.

The True Story of an Air Force Intelligence Officer’s Life with UFOs
U.S. Air Force Major George Filer belongs to the generation of pilots and aviators who first became aware of the strange aircraft showing up in the Earth’s atmosphere after World War II. These men – military professionals who flew planes, served as radar operators and air traffic controllers at airfields around the world – began to whisper amongst themselves about encounters with suspected extraterrestrial aircraft.
During secret debriefings at U.S. bases, pilots and air crew told their commanders of seeing UFOs off their plane’s wings. Award-winning investigative author John Guerra spent four years interviewing Filer, a decorated intelligence officer.
From objects in the skies over Cold War Europe to a UFOs over during the Cuban Missile Crisis to lights over the DMZ in Vietnam Filer leaves nothing out about his Air Force UFO encounters,
Filer’s most memorable case – the shooting of an alien at Fort Dix Army Base in 1978 – is fully recounted for the first time in this book. As a member of the Disclosure Project, military experts, astronauts, and scientists urge the U.S. government to release all it knows about UFOs to the public.
Filer describes his UFO encounters in this incredible book, by John L. Guerra.

Strange Craft
Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over Alabama, Arizona, California, Florida, I, Missouri, New Jersey, New Mexico, Texas. And Washington.
Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over Australia, China, France, India Mexico, South Africa, and England in the United Kingdom.
The purpose of these files is to report the UFO eyewitness and photo/video evidence that occurs on a daily basis around the world and in space. These Files assume that extraterrestrial intelligent life not only exists, but my hypothesis is that the over a thousand UFOs reported each month represent technologically advanced craft conducting surveillance of Earth. I personally became interested in UFOs when London Control ordered me to intercept one over England while flying for the US Air Force. Under Project Blue Book, the US Air Force investigated UFOs for more than twenty years; and we continue this advanced research. I believe the God of the universe has spread life throughout the cosmos and UFO’s are visiting us in ever-increasing numbers.
UFO Sightings in the United States
Sightings are from MUFON CMS
Alabama Light
Cullman on January 4, 2023, I have numerous sightings at this location. I noticed 5-9 searchlights trying to get a lock on the object. which looked like a dumbbell. Then it changed shape into a fan shape,. The object then begins to dodge the spotlights when the object denaturized into nothing.
Arizona Object
Sedonaon January 23, 2023, I’m a retired public utility manager and private pilot. I have recently photographed a UAP fly into and out of range of my drone camera before I crashed into a tree. I will supply the video and a series of still shots that I captured from the video.
California Objects
Gonzaleson January 14, 2023, I saw this bright object right away. I pulled over and watched it hover for about 30 minutes It was in the SE portion of the sky and right at the horizon. As the sun came up, it was not visible.
Los Angeles on January 23, 2023, we were driving home from work when the object passed over our car from south to north it appeared to be a clutter of objects with some kind of flashing lights
Florida Lights
Crystal River on January 7, 2023, stationary lights shimmer red and blue lights with position changed slightly over time and moved further away. Review of video showed a tight cluster of several glowing yellow lights.
Missouri Object
Independenceon January 5, 2023, video was recorded by my 11 year old granddaughter and her friend in their backyard. I have looked at it over and over again and it is not a plane or a drone and it made no sound. It looks like it has headlights in the sky very strange
New Jersey Lights
Long Branch on January 2, 2023, A sudden urge to go outside to see a triangle, it looked like TR3-B, with a large center circle with 3 outer circles on bottom hovering silent 50′ above a neighbor’s house. I realized was really scared. I was yelling out phrases of fear of a craft stopping and performing colors and shape shifting. as I had become aware was with me being the only witness, Fear and a drive to get video had me try to remember where the phone was.. A few shape shift and color shift. all white, 3 balls of light all white, the, all blue, then all red. c How did it select me to encounter and put on a show?
Texas Object
Midlothianon January 16, 2023, Observed object in sky for about 5 minutes thought it was a cloud at first. I saw a helicopter in the morning around the same area doing figure 8s then flew off. I thought that was strange.
Washington Light
Lynwoodon January 29 , 2023, I was taking a couple photos of the moon low in the horizon. I did not see anything when I took the pictures. When I looked at the pictures there is a wing shape object in the first picture flying NW and then in the second picture headed SW and apparently much closer due to its larger size.

A.I. Finds a New Way to Build Multiple-Star Systems
Over over 50% of high mass stars reside in multiple star systems. But due to their complex orbital interactions, physicists have a difficult time understanding just how stable and long-lived these systems are. Recently a team of astronomers applied machine learning techniques to simulations of multiple star systems and found a new way that stars in such systems can arrange themselves.
Classical mechanics has a notorious problem known as the three-body problem. While Newton’s laws of gravity can easily handle calculations of the forces between two objects and their subsequent evolution, there is no known analytic solution when you include a third massive object. In response to that problem, physicists over the centuries have developed various approximation schemes to study these kinds of systems, concluding that the vast majority of possible three-object arrangements are unstable.
But it turns out that there are a lot of multiple-star systems out there in the galaxy. Indeed, over half of all massive stars belong to at least a binary pair, and many of them belong to triple or quadruple star systems. Obviously the systems last a long time, otherwise they would have flung themselves apart a long time ago before we had a chance to observe them. But because of the limitations of our tools we have difficulty assessing how these systems organize themselves and what the stable orbit options exist.
Recently a team of astronomers conducted tens of thousands of simulations of quadruple star systems, varying the mass and orbital distances of all the objects. They then ran the simulation outputs through a machine learning classifier to pull out general trends and categories for the structures of the stable orbits.
They found one such structure of orbits that was already familiar to old analytic techniques. This is the so-called nested triple system. You start with two stars close together orbiting around a common center of mass. Then you add a third star in a large enough orbit around those other two so that from that distance the other two might as well be a single star. Then to add a fourth star you put it at an even greater distance so it orbits around the other three.
But their simulations and machine learning analysis also found a new kind of orbital arrangement. In this arrangement, you have two sets of binary stars, with each set orbiting around a common center of mass.
This arrangement was just as stable as the nested triple arrangement and led to systems that could last for hundreds of millions of years.
Astronomers want to understand how these systems arrange themselves because that tells us how the stars themselves form. Understanding the present day structure of stellar orbits in multiple-star systems helps us unwind the clock to peer into their formation, and tells astronomers how the largest stars in the universe evolve.
