NASA Can't Get Voyager 2 to Call Home — But There Might Be a Fix
NASA Can't Get Voyager 2 to Call Home — But There Might Be a Fix
NASA's Voyager 2 spacecraft hasn't called home in a while, but NASA says the spacecraft will be fine.
The Voyager 2 spacecraft may be out of touch with NASA until mid-October thanks to a slight mishap, but NASA engineers got some good news this afternoon in the form of a carrier signal from the spacecraft.
NASA recently announced that it had been cut off from the spacecraft since July 21. Voyager 2’s instruments and communications system are working normally, but its radio signals have been missing Earth by about 429 million miles because the spacecraft’s antenna is pointed two degrees in the wrong direction.
“CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW?”
While Voyager 2’s operators at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory were uploading a series of commands to the spacecraft on July 21, something in their programmed commands accidentally tilted its antenna about two degrees. And over 12.3 billion miles of space, a tiny two-degree error turns into an astronomical miss.
“Data being sent by the spacecraft is no longer reaching the [Deep Space Network’s antennas on Earth], and the spacecraft is not receiving commands from ground controllers,” NASA announced recently.
The Deep Space Network picked up a carrier signal — the constant broadcast from a radio transmitter, whose frequency and intensity can be changed, or modulated, to carry an actual signal — from Voyager 2 on Tuesday afternoon. Engineers hope that if the carrier signal is hitting DSN’s antennas, then messages sent from Earth will also reach Voyager 2. If that’s the case, they can send the spacecraft instructions to point its antenna in the right direction again.
If that doesn’t work, Voyager 2 will be cut off from contact with its human operators until October 15, when the spacecraft is scheduled to reset its orientation on its own.
Voyager 2 launched in August 1977, and it entered interstellar space in November 2018. About a year ago, its sister ship, Voyager 1, experienced a different communications issue, which engineers managed to troubleshoot from billions of miles away. NASA engineers have had to find increasingly creative ways to keep the two Voyager spacecraft sending data home to Earth, but if all goes well, both spacecraft will keep calling from interstellar space until sometime in 2035.
If aliens actually crashed here on Earth, what would happen?
Would the debris, and the aliens themselves, vanish behind a massive government cover-up, only to emerge as classified military technology years later? Or would altruistic civilian scientists work together to study the alien artifacts for the good of humanity?
These questions seem like fodder for very trope-y science fiction, but last week, a former U.S. Air Force intelligence officer told Congress last week, with a straight face, that an unnamed source had told him that the U.S. Department of Defense (or possibly its contractors) has debris and “nonhuman biologics” from a crashed UFO.
To answer these suddenly relevant questions, Inverse spoke with Greg Eghigian, a Pennsylvania State University historian and bioethicist who specializes in the study of UFOs.
WHO OWNS CRASHED UFOS?
If a flying saucer crashes in Oklahoma tomorrow, just for example, what happens next?
No law or treaty spells out who gets to claim the spaceship or alien remains. The U.S. and several other countries have laws about who owns meteorites (spoiler alert for U.S. readers: if the meteorite falls on private land, it belongs to the landowner; on public land, it depends) and even debris from human-made spacecraft re-entering Earth’s atmosphere (you can’t collect rocket parts in Florida, for example). Other laws even spell out who’s liable if a de-orbiting satellite crashes on someone’s house. At the moment, though, there’s nothing on the books about who technically owns a flying saucer that crashes on U.S. soil.
Senators Chuck Schumer and Mike Rounds are hoping to change that with an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act. Their amendment, if it passes, would (among other things) give the U.S. federal government “eminent domain over any and all recovered technologies of unknown origin (TUO) and biological evidence of non-human intelligence (NHI) that may be controlled by private persons or entities in the interests of the public good.”
“I think the sense is that the government, particularly the military, would be the key entity that would take on this stuff,” Eghigian tells Inverse. “I don't think civilian scientists would be getting first dibs on this. I think they would be out of the loop.”
COULD THE GOVERNMENT REALLY KEEP A CRASHED UFO A SECRET?
Does that mean the Department of Defense would whisk the crash debris (and the “nonhuman biologics,” as former Air Force intelligence officer David Grusch recently described it to Congress) away to a top-secret bunker, never to be spoken of again?
“To start with, I think there's no question that the first people on the ground are going to be policing authorities: it’s going to be the police, and it’s going to be the military,” says Eghigian. Once the crash site is secure, the next step would probably be forensic work, involving a mix of technicians, scientists, and engineers from within the military branches or from defense contractors.
It’s likely the military’s interest would be threefold: first, to determine whether the flying saucer and its builders pose a threat to humanity, especially the U.S.; second, to try to reverse engineer the technology for military use; and third, to keep anybody else from doing part two. That would almost certainly involve some secrecy — or at least, an attempt at secrecy.
“Militaries keep secrets all the time, and the intelligence community is built around, not just holding secrets, but also exposing secrets for their benefit,” says Eghigian. “If something remarkable happened, I can believe that that would be a dynamic that would emerge.”
But SETI Institute astronomer Seth Shostak questions how long a veil of secrecy would last on a planet surrounded by high-resolution imaging satellites.
“Actual alien craft in our airspace bigger than an office desk would likely be visible to satellites that — among other things — supply imagery to Google Earth,” he writes in a recent essay for the SETI Institute. And it’s not just satellites; more than one country’s military personnel have managed to share sensitive operational information on social media. “I still strongly maintain that alien visitation is not something that could be kept secret. The size of such a secret is just too big,” writes Shostak.
Eghigian is also skeptical that an alien cover-up could last very long, but he says the fact that so many people expect — or already believe in — a government conspiracy to hide aliens from us is, in itself, very revealing.
“So often this stuff about UFOs isn’t about UFOs at all,” Eghigian says. “It gets to the heart of how a person or an organization or group of people, your image and your idea of how government works, and what modern governments are capable of and what they do."
WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?
Once the word gets out — and Shostak and Eghigian seem to agree that it almost certainly will, one way or another — scientists around the world would be clamoring for access to the evidence, and even the Department of Defense might have some good reasons to share.
“That would probably be followed by, you would hope, lots of questions coming from journalists like you,” Eghigian says. “And then I think the civilian scientists and researchers, if we catch wind of this stuff, would then be I think clamoring for an opportunity to have a look.”
With nearly 300 research universities in the U.S. alone, not to mention the private sector, there would be a lot of researchers clamoring for dibs on alien autopsies and analyzing the metals in the flying saucer’s hull. Sorting out who should get access to study which pieces of the evidence would quickly become a sticky, and highly politicized, problem.
“One thing I think you can expect absolutely right away is this would turn political,” says Eghigian.
Of course, this story has focused on what would happen if an alien spaceship crashed somewhere in the U.S., but there’s no reason — other than nationalism — to think the U.S. is any more likely to be a UFO crash site than any other country in the world.
“There is a kind of national hubris operating here: If extraterrestrial beings are going to come to Earth, they’re going to visit us!” writes Shostak.
Dark Matter Experiment Fails to Turn Up the Mysterious Particle, but Narrows its Hiding Places
So much in science is based on constraints. If scientists don’t understand something, they try to constrain it as much as possible so that more precise experiments can finally detect whatever the theorized phenomenon is. Dark matter is notoriously difficult in this regard, as it has evaded detection for over a century at this point, despite even more precise instruments trying to capture a glimpse of it. One of those instruments is the Super Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (SuperCDMS), run by the SLAC National Laboratory and located in northern Minnesota. To help further the cause, researchers looked at the data from the experiment while considering a few new possibilities, and while they didn’t find any evidence of dark matter, they helped tighten the constraints even more.
SuperCDMS, like most dark matter detection experiments, relies on the theory of dark matter that believes it interacts with ordinary matter in some way, shape, or form. Most likely, this interaction will take the form of some sort of interaction with the nuclear of an atom it runs into.
When dark matter collides with an atom, there are two possibilities for what happens. First is an “elastic collision” – simply thought of as when billiard balls bounce into one another, as Noah Kurinsky, a staff member at SLAC and corresponding author on a new paper describing this research, points out. Data from SuperCDMS has already been thoroughly scouted for evidence of those types of interactions. However, there is another option – an “inelastic” collision.
In such a collision, the energy isn’t transferred to the atom’s nucleus but its electrons, or even photons, if they happen to be present. And there are two main ways they could potentially have such a collision.
One is called Bremsstrahlung radiation, meaning “braking radiation” in German. In this case, while the dark matter particle would still hit a nucleus, some energy would be transferred directly into a photon. Detectors at the SuperCDMS would then be able to pick up the increased energy of that photon and deduce that an inelastic dark matter collision could have caused it.
Bremsstrahlung radiation has been experimentally observed before, but the other potential inelastic collision method, known as the Migdal effect, has not yet. In this case, the dark matter particle again hits the nucleus, but the nucleus itself shifts ever so slightly, and the cloud of electrons surrounding it must shift as well. This shift should theoretically be detectable by experiments such as SuperCDMS, and indeed other theorists have calculated what that shift might look like in an experiment.
Unfortunately, after reanalyzing data previously collected by SuperCDMS, Dr. Kurinsky and his colleagues found no evidence of dark matter. However, they added some additional constraints by showing that a dark matter particle’s total “mass” (equivalent to the energy in high-end physics) is less than one-fifth the mass of a proton.
But they didn’t stop there. Another way the detector might not see the results they expect based on these new interaction theories is if the dark matter particles don’t make it all the way to the detector in the first place and get swallowed up by Earth’s ground or even the atmosphere beforehand. That would help to put an upper bound on the minimum level of mass dark matter to reach the detector.
To do this calculation, the physicists collaborated with another group of scientists not well-known for their interest in particle physics – geologists. That collaboration allows the physicists to calculate how much energy a dark matter particle would lose depending on which direction through the Earth it was passing. Calculations show a dramatic difference in lost energy as it passed the entire way through the Earth and its core to reach the mine in Minnesota where SuperCDMS is located finally, and another dark matter particles that might come from straight overhead and meet the path of least resistance into the detector.
Again, these calculations didn’t turn up any smoking gun of dark matter, so the search continued. However, they were able to say that dark matter must be below the energy limit that would allow the particles (if that is indeed what they are) to pass through to the detector, even via the most direct route. They can also confidently say that if it has enough energy to make it to the detector, it must have a mass of less than 1/5th of a proton.
Now the search continues, with more and more scientists joining it every year. And with more and more detectors coming online every year, maybe there is some hint of dark matter’s existence hiding in the data sets of other detectors just waiting to be analyzed using this new framework. But until then, details of this most mysterious of materials will continue to elude us.
Wetenschappers ontdekken gigantische nieuwe walvisvoorouder: “dit was mogelijk het zwaarste dier ooit op aarde”
Wetenschappers ontdekken gigantische nieuwe walvisvoorouder: “dit was mogelijk het zwaarste dier ooit op aarde”
Wetenschappers hebben een nieuwe voorouder van de walvis ontdekt. Perucetus colossus zwom zo’n 39 miljoen jaar geleden voor de kust van het huidige Peru. Met zijn gewicht van naar schatting 85 à 340 ton steekt hij de blauwe vinvis naar de kroon als zwaarste dier ooit. Die haalt maar 100 à 190 ton. Een van de paleontologen uit het onderzoeksteam is de Belg Olivier Lambert van het Koninklijk Belgisch Instituut voor Natuurwetenschappen (KBIN). Hun unieke ontdekking staat deze week in het toonaangevende tijdschrift Nature.
Paleontoloog Mario Urbina zoekt al decennia naar fossielen in de woestijn langs de zuidelijke kust van Peru. Dertien jaar geleden deed hij een uitzonderlijke ontdekking. Toen de andere teamleden de foto’s zagen, waren ze verbijsterd: de fossielen – die ongeveer 39 miljoen jaar oud zijn – waren immens en hadden een rare vorm. Het team had verschillende opgravingsmissies nodig om het kolossale skelet uit een heuvelflank te graven. Elk van de dertien gefossiliseerde wervels woog over de honderd kilogram en de vier ribben waren zo’n 1,4 meter lang.
Het exemplaar is een nieuwe soort uit de groep van de intussen uitgestorven basilosauriden. Dat zijn de vroegste walvissen die de overgang maakten naar een volledig aquatische levensstijl. Walvissen stammen namelijk af van gehoefde landdieren die terug in zee zijn gaan leven en aanvankelijk nog zowel in het water als op land leefden. Uit de basilosauriden ontstonden later de balein- en tandwalvissen die we vandaag nog kennen.
Nieuwe zwaargewichtkampioen?
In de groep van de basilosauriden waren er al soorten bekend met een lichaamslengte tot zo’n 20 meter, maar tot dusver kon geen enkele vroege walvis het zwaarste dier ooit naar de kroon steken: de blauwe vinvis. Die iconische baleinwalvis weegt tot wel 190 ton, zo zwaar als veertig olifanten. Perucetus colossus (‘de kolossale walvis van Peru’), zoals de nieuw beschreven soort werd gedoopt, zou nu de titel van zwaarste dier ooit kunnen overnemen.
Het internationale team van onderzoekers scande het oppervlak van de fossielen om in 3D hun volume te kunnen berekenen. Onderzoekers boorden ook een staal uit verschillende wervels en uit een rib waarmee ze de inwendige structuur van het bot konden analyseren. En ze gebruikten complete skeletten van nauw verwante walvisachtigen om in te schatten hoe zwaar Perucetus woog tijdens zijn leven.
Het 20 meter lange skelet alleen al moet tussen vijf en acht ton hebben gewogen. Dat is twee tot drie keer zwaarder dan het skelet van de 25 meter lange blauwe vinvis die in het Natural History Museum in London hangt. Om het hele lichaamsgewicht van Perucetus te kunnen schatten, gebruikten de onderzoekers de verhouding tussen zacht weefsel en gewicht van het skelet, dat berekend kan worden bij levende zeezoogdieren. Met schattingen tussen 85 ton tot 340 ton valt het gewicht van deze nieuwe soort ofwel binnen het bereik van de blauwe vinvis, ofwel overtreft het dat ruimschoots.
Hoe groter, hoe beter?
Twee aanpassingen van het skelet zijn verantwoordelijk voor het enorme gewicht van Perucetus. Ten eerste de extra aanmaak van bot op het buitenoppervlak van het skelet. Daardoor zien de wervels er opgeblazen uit. En de holtes binnenin blijken opgevuld met bot, wat het skelet extra zwaar maakt.
“Deze aanpassingen zijn geen teken van ziekte”, zegt Olivier Lambert, paleontoloog aan het KBIN en co-auteur van de studie. “We kennen die aanpassingen van veel andere zeezoogdieren – zeekoeien onder meer – en uitgestorven reptielen die in ondiepe kustwateren leven of leefden. Zware botten werken als duikgewichten en helpen de dieren om hun drijfvermogen (hun positie in de waterkolom) en hun trim (de positie van het lijf zelf) te regelen.”
“Een stabiele houding in het water kan handig zijn geweest om boven de zeebodem te zoeken naar schaaldieren, bodemvissen en weekdieren. En zwaar zijn was mogelijk ook een voordeel bij een sterke golfslag aan de kust.” De huidige walvissen, die tot veel grotere dieptes kunnen duiken en ver van de kust leven, hebben een veel lichtere botstructuur.
Tot nu toe zagen paleontologen de evolutionaire verschuiving naar een gigantische omvang, zoals je die vandaag ziet bij baleinwalvissen, als een recent fenomeen, dat zo’n 5 miljoen jaar geleden begon bij filtervoedende walvissen in open zee. “De ontdekking van zo’n reusachtige soort als Perucetus, van wie de zwaarte van de botten enorm was toegenomen, verandert ons begrip van de evolutie van walvissen: al 30 miljoen jaar eerder bereikten ze een gigantisch gewicht in de context van een kustgebied”, aldus Lambert.

Stairway To Heaven In Noah’s Ark
Stairway To Heaven In Noah’s Ark
The story of Noah’s ark and the flood epic is one of the oldest nursery legends in the world and it has captivated the imaginations of children and adults alike throughout the ages. From childhood memories one may recollect that God sent the deluge to destroy all the evil people upon the earth. It is known that Noah and his family were saved by departing on a titanic ark with every species of animals and birds on board the floating zoo. The ark began its maiden voyage on the 17th day of the second month when the rain began and it lasted for the proverbial 40 days and 40 nights.
Some of the more precise details after that may be a little sketchy but the Book of Genesis tells that the waters started to rise on the earth over a period of 150 days. Few will remember hearing of so many days, but they may recall that the tops of the mountains finally disappeared below the waves. Perhaps children rub their sleepy eyes when they listen to how the ark docked on Mount Ararat and miss out on the fact that it was on the 17th day of the seventh month.
Noah’s ark seemed so real then right up to where the saga ended with a rainbow on the horizon. It was the ultimate image of a colourful finale but never did anyone realize that there was a magical formula of celestial knowledge of the heavens on display in the timing details of the flood saga. Those timing details listed particulars days and specific months together with the length of periods in days. It was very mysterious how the dates and periods were so precise as if they adhered to a deliberately planned timetable.
Noah by Lorenzo Monaco (circa 1370 –circa 1425 ) Metropolitan Museum of Art
The first sign that there was some time amiss in the flood story was with an anomaly with the ages of Noah and his son Shem. It stated in the Book of Genesis that Noah was 500 years old when he became the father of triplets, one of whom was Shem. It also outlined that the flood finished on the end of Noah’s 600th year. However, later in the story it stated that Noah’s son Shem became a father when he was 100 years old, which was listed as two years after the flood. That was fake news for Shem would have been 102 years old when it was two years after the flood. It appeared that the scribes had tempted one with an intellectual challenge where the episode of the flood contained possibly the first numerical riddle in written existence.

The cockups continued when tracing the dating events in the saga of the flood as outlined in the Book of Genesis. Read the three chapters in order to get a greater appreciation of the timing details. The relevant times given for the events at the beginning of the flood are listed below and to make the presentation more user-friendly, the names of the months used today are utilized. It should be stated that ancient numbers and arithmetic were very different than what is used today. The timing details were as follows:
All went into the Ark on the 17th day of the second month and the rain started – February 17.
It rained for 40 days and 40 nights and the waters rose for 150 days until the Ark was 15 cubits above the mountains. This would date the event forward to the 17th day of the seventh month –July 17.
But it then stated that the Ark rested on Mount Ararat on the 17th day of the seventh month –July 17.
There was a major problem for how could the ark rest on Mount Ararat on the 17th day of the seventh month when the waters were 15 cubits above the mountains on the same day and had not the time to recede?
The ark had come up against a barrier worse than an iceberg and it was amazing to find that this blunder had never featured prominently in previous biblical commentary. It was back to the drawing board to investigate what the story tellers had in mind when they devised the puzzling dating system in the flood saga.
The Deluge towards Its Close by Joshua Shaw (1813) Metropolitan Museum of Art
Biblical academics have established that there were two versions of the flood story standing back to back. One of those versions was in the earthly realm where it simply rained for 40 days and 40 nights. But the other version was in the cosmic realm where it stated that the windows of the heavens were thrown open and the fountains of the deep were broken open. Because the ark sailed up to the heavens and with such a precise dating schedule, one has to take cognizance of how time is measured. It introduces the astronomical terms of the solar year and the sidereal year as follows:
Modern calendar is based on the solar year, which is measured against a fixed point on the landscape such as a sun dial and it is 365.242 days long.
The year is also measured against a fixed star in the heavens and it is 365.256 days long. This is known as a star or sidereal year.
Ancient Greek astronomer Hipparchus with the astrolabe he invented. William Cuningham, "The Cosmographical Glasse", (1559).
Current opinion is that the Greek astronomer Hipparchus discovered the difference between solar and sidereal time and he lived in the second century BC. The sidereal year is longer than the solar year by a little over 20 minutes. In the era before mechanical clocks were invented, the period of 20 minutes would have been almost impossible to measure. However, the biblical astronomers seemingly made theoretical projections where the tiny time period of 20 minutes added up to one day in 72 years and 14 days in 1,000 years. It gave a meaning to the phrase in the second Book of Peter where “with the Lord a day was like a thousand years.” The scribes also used time on land to represent solar time and time at sea to represent sidereal time.
Calculating-Table by Gregor Reisch: Margarita Philosophica, (1503). The woodcut shows Arithmetica instructing an algorist and an abacist.
The biblical astronomers went further where they devised a unique formula to measure sidereal time and solar time. To achieve their objective they projected the tiny period of 20 minutes out over 100, 1,000 and 3,000 years. It was a simple formula where they applied 777 beads on an abacus to represent the days. Then they simply counted out 777 beads over and over again and found that after 47 lots had been counted, they had the total of 36,519 to represent the days in 100 years. There was a shortfall of 5.2 days so they would have added an extra five beads to complete the exercise with 36,524 days precisely. With 100 sidereal years there was a shortfall of 6.6 days and therefore they would have added on six extra leap days to achieve the target of 36,525 days precisely.
They would then have repeated the same exercise many times until the numbers to represent the periods of 1,000 and 3,000 years had been projected. There would have been a shortfall of 157 beads to achieve the target with the number of days in 3,000 solar years. They would have added on those extra 157 beads to the overall total to represent 3,000 solar years precisely. It was simply a matter of conducting the same exercise to project out 3,000 sidereal years except that the maths shows that it would have required adding an extra 197 beads to reach the precise target. The periods involved were thus 3,000 solar years with 157 leap days and 3,000 sidereal years with 197 leap days.
Genesis 7, 11-14: "In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened. And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights..." Augsburger Wunderzeichenbuch, (c. 1550)
Armed with the knowledge of the 777-day calendar and its indices it was quite obvious that the leap days for solar time were on display in the flood story. The saga outlined that the rain started on the 17th day of the second month and the waters rose for a period of 150 days. After that the waters receded for another 150 days. There were also two periods with Noah waiting for seven days plus seven days when he sent out the dove which returned the second time with an olive leaf in its beak. These collective periods added up to two distinct intervals with 157 days plus 157 days. The two intervals fitted like gloves for they equated exactly to the leap days, which had to be added on to synchronize the 777-day calendar when projected out over 3,000 plus 3,000 solar years.
The period of 197 days to represent 3,000 sidereal years was not openly discernible in the flood saga. But while drawing up a chart to show the complete dating of the flood epic from beginning to the end, a very unusual picture emerged. The mental arithmetic suggested that the timing details of the flood epic also dated back in time to the tune of sidereal time. This seemed surreal until the complete timing details of going forward in time and going back in time were mapped out as shown in the illustration.
The Blue and Yellow Routes of the Ark through Solar and Sidereal Time
(Compiled by Michael Hearns)
In was an amazing spectacle where this illustration formed naturally into the shape of a huge ship with sails. The details may seem overwhelming to digest but approach the diagram as one would use a street map to find one’s way around a foreign city. In simple terms the route the ark took forward in accord with solar time is outlined in blue. The events began on February 17, follow the arrows and it points to two periods of 150 days plus two periods of seven days to when the flood ended on the last day of December of that same year. Thus, there were two combined periods of 157 leap days on the blue route to mirror two periods of 3,000 solar years in the heavens, when measured with the 777-day formula. That was the journey on the blue route and it was in accord with solar time.
The sidereal time route was paradoxically, back in time as shown on the yellow route. The starting day was the same on the yellow route where it began on February 17 when the rain began. Follow the arrows back in time with the 40 days and nights rain together with a seven-day waiting period, as was outlined in the Book of Genesis. That brought the dating schedule back to January 1. Then continue back in time through the previous year starting with January, February, March and April until an extra 150 days had elapsed and that was on May 30. In all it was a total of 40 + 7 + 150 = 197 days, which equated to the same period in leap day for 3,000 sidereal years. On that date of May 30 on the yellow route the ark would have been 15 cubits above the mountains.
Subsiding of the Waters of the Deluge by Thomas Cole (1829) Smithsonian American Art Museum
Tracing the path back in time from May 30 to July 17, the waters would have had 47 days to recede. That was the date in the timing schedule where it stated in the flood story that the ark rested on Mount Ararat on the 17th day of the seventh month. The problem of the ark resting on Mount Ararat was resolved for the waters had those 47 days to recede. Continuing back in time from July 17 for another 150 days it brought the schedule to December 17. That made it an extra period of 197 days with 47 +150 days. Therefore, there were two periods of 197 days back in time from when the flood began on February 17 to the December 17 of the previous year. These equated to two periods of 197 leap days with sidereal time when projected out over 3,000 plus 3,000 sidereal years. This puzzle has to be studied like the moves on a chest board, so it may help to retrace the two routes again as follows:
On the blue route follow the arrows forward in time from February 17 and note the timing in the blue boxes. Notice where the 150 days plus 150 days plus seven days plus seven days are listed for the complete period to the last day in December.
Therefore, there were two combined periods of 157 days plus 157 days on the blue route and they were in accord with solar time. The 40 days and nights of rain ran in parallel with the 150 days that the waters rose.
On the yellow route trace the arrows initially back in time starting on February 17 and it took in the 40 days and nights rain plus seven days that Noah waited. Then the route switched on January 1 back in time through the previous year. Follow the arrows and note the dates in the yellow boxes. The days added up to 47 days plus 150 days (197 days) to when the ark was 15 cubits above the waves on May 30. The schedule showed the ark traveling back anticlockwise in time on the yellow route and the 40 days and night ran in series with the 150 days. Follow the yellow route back in time to July 17 (seventh month) when the ark rested on Mount Ararat. The anomaly was solved for the waters had 47 days to recede to let the ark dock on the mountain. Continue on the yellow route back in time for another 150 days making it a total of 47 + 150 = 197 days to end on December 17 of the previous year.
But now for the real demanding challenge because one has to follow the mind map of the puzzle along both the yellow and blue routes at the same time. It is an exercise that will utilize both sides of the brain.
It was the ‘double speak’ of two separate routes which confused the issue with the ark resting on Mount Ararat on July 17 (seventh month) on the yellow route whereas it would have been 15 cubits above the mountains on that date on the blue route.
There was still one more surprise in store where it seemed so odd how two different dates were listed as to when the flood ended. The schedule stated that the earth was dry on January 1 of the following year. Then the schedule repeated that the earth was dry though it was on February 27 of the same year. There was a very good reason for having those 57 extra superfluous days built into the story from January 1 to February 27 when the earth was dry. When all the periods in the flood saga were added up both forward in time and back in time of the dating schedule, the total came to 360 days plus 360 days plus the 57 extra days. The overall total added up to 777 days. The designers had written in the main indices of the calendar formula with 777 days into the timing details and that was the purpose of the 57 extra days to February 27 of the following year.
What mortal eye could look upon such a majestic display that the scribes prepared of the ark’s dual journeys and not be captivated by its breathtaking numerical logic? Who were those visionaries who could see into the future and demonstrate in a thought-provoking matrix, the difference between solar and sidereal time projected out over the period of 12,000 years? They changed modern perception of history for it is reckoned that the flood saga was rewritten between 722 and 609 BC and that was five centuries before Hipparchus.
All those souvenir hunters who long to go to Mount Ararat to look for the wooden skeleton of Noah’s ark must have been puzzled at how the vessel could dock on the mountain on the same date as when it was 15 cubits above the mountain tops. Now one knows the reason why, for it was 15 cubits above the mountains on that date on the blue route whereas the waters had receded on the yellow route allowing the ark to rest on Mount Ararat. It was also correct to say that Shem became a father when he was 100 years old at the end of the blue route because it was two years after the flood ended on the yellow route.
Those two periods of 157 days and two periods of 197 days mirrored four periods of 3,000 years in the heavens, which added up to 12,000 years. This forged a link to the Zoroastrian period of the long dominion of 12,000 years and it was at the very beginning of the Book of Genesis. It was a dramatic statement about how the biblical writers were influenced by Zoroastrianism and where the religious concept of good and evil originated.
The moral of the flood story was the theme of good and evil. On earth the journey was in solar time and the evil mortals on the ground perished in accord with God’s command. In contrast, the journey back in time was in accord with sidereal time of the heavens and all the good people with Noah and his family on board the ark survived to tell the tale.

The Vatican’s “difficult" position on discussing UFOs: Coulthart | Banfield
Whistleblower David Grusch previously made the claim that the Vatican and pope were part of a massive UFO decadeslong cover-up. The Vatican didn't respond to NewsNation's request for comment on the possible connection. Investigative journalist Ross Coulthart, who interviewed Grusch, tells "Banfield" it may be "difficult" for the Vatican to comment on the connection without the U.S. concurring first.

It was 1948, and the Cold War was in full swing. Unbeknownst to most, another war was happening, one not between nations, but between Earth and the unknown. The skies over Russia were set to be the theatre of an otherworldly confrontation that would change the course of history.
Tales of UFO encounters may often be associated with the likes of Roswell, New Mexico, but this story takes us thousands of miles away to the frigid expanse of Russia. This narrative isn’t merely about an encounter; it’s about an incident so profound that it might just redefine your understanding of the UFO phenomena.
In the thick of a hostile atmosphere, a brave Russian pilot was engaged in a fierce dogfight with an unidentified flying object. Unlike a usual encounter, the Soviet pilot was under explicit orders from the Air Force Commander-in-Chief Zagarov, to confront and engage with the mysterious object. The mid-air battle was fierce, intense, and filled with a sense of dread. The pilot struggled to combat the UFO’s powerful rays of light that emanated from it, blinding him.
The valiant pilot, in his final attempt to protect his homeland, launched a missile. Miraculously, it succeeded in bringing the object down. Unlike the Roswell incident, the events of 1948 remained clandestine, never making headlines, but rather, it unfolded in a secret airbase in Russia.
The retrieval teams, ecstatic with the discovery of their first alien spacecraft, rushed to secure the debris. Little did they know that this marked the start of Russia’s secret UFO program. The question hung heavy in the air – what technology did the aliens use? The speculations ranged from particle beam weapons to anti-gravity envelopes that protected the craft.

Never-Before-Seen Footage from 1948 UFO Crash (Season 2) | UFO Files | The UnXplained Zone
The aftermath of the 1948 UFO crash paved the way for an even more mystifying place than America’s Roswell and Area 51. This site was Kapustin Yar, a covert facility filled with the Soviet Union’s top researchers, scientists, and military specialists. It was here that the recovered alien technology was painstakingly reverse-engineered, leading to significant strides in Cold War technology.
The secretive nature of Kapustin Yar led to many rumors, among which were stories of subterranean UFO research centers and storage points for crashed UFOs. This secrecy wasn’t a new phenomenon; the Soviet skies have been home to numerous well-documented and eerie encounters with UFOs, dating back even before the modern Russian state existed.
Perhaps the most intriguing of these past sightings was the Robozero incident of 1663, where an enormous fiery disc was seen hovering over a northern Russian lake. Eyewitnesses were filled with dread as the disc lingered for over an hour, scalding fishermen and causing fish to fling themselves out of the water.
There were more mysterious sightings reported across the vast Russian landscape, including a pillar of light over Moscow in 1892, and the most massive fireball of all time that devastated the Siberian Forest of Tunguska in 1908.
These events remain wrapped in mystery and intrigue. Though they seem like stories out of a science fiction novel, they are a part of Russia’s intricate history with the unknown. The Russian Roswell stands testament to mankind’s enduring quest to seek out answers about life beyond Earth, a journey fraught with danger, intrigue, and an insatiable curiosity.
In the year since the inception of the All Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (Aero), UFO sightings and whistleblower testimonies have been emerging, pushing the topic of unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) firmly into the limelight. But the road to disclosure is mired with controversy, skepticism, and a looming question: are we genuinely headed towards a new era of transparency?
The Aero, led by Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick, has been heavily criticized for its lack of open dialogue and seemingly dismissive stance towards key witnesses and whistleblowers. Despite its role to investigate, analyze and report on UAP occurrences, it appears Aero is yet to take full advantage of the troves of firsthand accounts and direct testimonies at its disposal.
One glaring example is the alleged non-communication between Aero and David Fravor, a retired US Navy pilot and the primary witness to the infamous 2004 Nimitz incident. This incident, involving a UAP sighting by multiple Navy personnel, is arguably one of the most credible and well-documented UFO encounters. Yet, Aero appears to have made no attempt to speak with Fravor, despite him being a crucial witness to this unexplained event.
Additionally, former intelligence analyst David Grush, who testified before Congress on UAP-related matters, stated that he fears for his life after blowing the whistle on Aero’s mishandling of UFO-related information. Following this testimony, Kirkpatrick released a letter expressing disappointment over the proceedings, a move that has drawn widespread criticism. This has led to a significant disconnect between the UFO community and Aero, creating an atmosphere of mistrust.
Critics argue that Kirkpatrick’s letter seeks to discredit Grush and downplays the severity of the allegations raised. Yet, there’s a paradox: Aero’s proclaimed mission is to execute a strategy of investigation and oversight, but it seems to show limited interest in engaging with individuals who might have relevant information. Ryan Graves, another military pilot and a proponent of safe aerospace practices, is another key figure who Aero seems to have disregarded.
While Aero maintains that it has found no credible evidence to support allegations of non-human technology or extraterrestrial activities, the continuous emergence of whistleblowers and firsthand testimonies tells a different story. The tug-of-war between the quest for transparency and the shroud of skepticism highlights the complexities that surround the UAP discourse.
VIDEO:
Whistleblower’s Bombshell Allegations Against UFO Office Director!
In conclusion, for Aero to execute its mission effectively, it must prioritize establishing open communication channels with key witnesses, whistleblowers, and other members of the UAP community. Moreover, Aero’s commitment to follow data wherever it leads should be reflected in a genuine openness to all potential sources of information. Only then will the battle for transparency begin to swing in favor of those who yearn for answers about the unknown.
As we continue to grapple with the mystery of UAP, we must remember that, at its core, this is a journey of discovery, a quest for understanding, and an exploration into the very boundaries of human knowledge and potential. The journey ahead may be long and arduous, but the pursuit of truth remains a noble endeavor, one that should always drive our efforts and our inquiry.
Black UFO That Stopped And Changes Course Durning Live Stream On July 2, 2023
In this footage we can see this object enter our view from the left hand side of the screen on a downwards trajectory only to stop and return in the direction it came from. P&K SpaceImaging stated the following:
"The object enters and hangs around very slowly. It Actually switches speeds numerous times throughout the video. Eventually, it does a 180 Degree turn and exits from the same way it came from. All of this was done in less than a half a degree of visibility. A Bug would be completely out of focus and would not stay in the same place when we adjust the telescope. This one truly has us baffled. As much as this would be our "White Buffalo" UFO moment, we have to keep anything that is possible as a possibility until we can confirm that anything known that it can be is proven to be impossible. As of now though... It is a fascinating UFO/UAP"
P&K SpaceImaging Mission is as follows
" We look at the moon and space to try and gather proof scientifically of possible alien life. I would ask that you mention that we are not saying that this is aliens. We are simply posting something weird and at this time are doing our due diligence in investigating all possibilities of what it could be. We do this live as much as possible and we definitely need more eyes watching when we do so it would be great if people would subscribe. So many times we have had hundreds of people watching and ONE person sees something that turns out to be a great catch, so the more eyes the better."

Two Clip Of UFO Sightings From El Paso, Texas & Medellín, Colombia.
Clip One:This was captured over El Paso, Texas on July 30, 2023 and the witness stated the following. "So i just caught an Unidentified Object on my Cannon Camera flying close to the moon. The moon looked so beautiful i decided to see how close i could view it with my camera and zoomed all that it had and seen the UFO." Thanks to Nocturnal labs for allowing me the use of his footage and to view the original:
Clip Two:This was sighted over Medellin, Colombia on January 7, 2023 and the witness stated the following: "Taken from an 11th story balcony on my iPhone in Medellin Colombia just before sunset. The building is called El Vergel, and this direction is towards Poblado so it was somewhere over there. The weird noises are from me and my idiot buddy Michael (to be clear, we are both idiots, not that he is an idiot lol)! No audible sounds from it. The object was hovering and moving very slowly for a while, maybe 10 minutes. Only thought to record at the end. It was definitely moving of its own volition and slowly as the wind was going the other way. It was very slow and hard to tell height or size from the distance, but it was way below the clouds. We assumed it was a drone or weather balloon or something."
US Navy Official FINALLY Breaks Silence on UFO & Alien Evidence
For decades, rumors have circulated about encounters with otherworldly beings, and now, an unprecedented moment has dawned.

But what does the US Navy know that they've kept hidden from the public for so long?
Supermassief zwart gat schiet energiestraal richting de Aarde
Supermassief zwart gat schiet energiestraal richting de Aarde
De NASA heeft een krachtige energiestraal waargenomen die recht op de Aarde is gericht. Volgens het Amerikaanse ruimtevaartagentschap is de straal afkomstig van een supermassief zwart gat genaamd Makarian 421, die vanaf de Aarde gezien in het sterrenstelsel Grote Beer is gelegen. Zorgen hoeven we ons evenwel niet te maken; de kosmische reus ligt op een veilige afstand van zo'n 400 miljoen lichtjaar.
Makarian 421 is een zogeheten ‘blazar’, een supermassief zwart gat dat honderdduizenden tot miljoenen keren zo zwaar is als onze eigen Zon. Een zwart gat is een regio in de ruimte waar de zwaartekracht zó sterk is, dat zelfs het licht niet kan ontsnappen.
Schijf
De onvoorstelbare krachten die zo'n object uitoefent op de hemellichamen en andere materie zijn nabijheid, zorgen voor een gigantische schijf die razendsnel om het zwarte gat draait. Als een zwart gat groot genoeg is, kan een deel van de materie die in het zwarte gat ‘valt’ soms in enorme stralen dodelijke energie worden 'weggeschoten’.
Zulke stralen kunnen soms tot miljoenen lichtjaren als een soort enorme schijnwerpers door het heelal schieten. Een lichtjaar is de afstand die het licht, dat zich met bijna 300.000 kilometer per seconde voortbeweegt, in een jaar aflegt.
The ancient nematode has lain dormant in a fossilized squirrel burrow since the late Pleistocene, revealing that these worms can survive for tens of thousands of years longer than thought.
A microscopic worm survived in the Siberian permafrost for a record-breaking 46,000 years, scientists have discovered — tens of thousands of years longer than previously resurrected worms.
The ancient roundworm, or nematode, belongs to the newly described species Panagrolaimus kolymaensis. Researchers discovered it nestled inside a fossilized squirrel burrow that was extracted from permafrost near the Kolyma River, in the northeastern Arctic, in 2002. Scientists resuscitated the frozen nematode in 2018, but its age and species remained unclear.
Now, a study published Thursday (July 27) in the journal PLOS Genetics may have found answers to these questions. "Survival in extreme environments for prolonged periods is a challenge that only a few organisms are capable of," researchers wrote in the study. "Here, we show that a soil nematode Panagrolaimus kolymaensis suspended life for 46,000 years in the Siberian permafrost."
Organisms such as nematodes and tardigrades can enter a dormant state — a metabolic process known as "cryptobiosis" — in response to being frozen or extremely dehydrated, intermediary states known as cryobiosis and anhydrobiosis, respectively. In both cases, the critters reduce their oxygen consumption and the amount of heat produced by metabolic processes to undetectable levels.
The newly described nematode entered cryptobiosis in the late Pleistocene (2.6 million to 11,700 years ago), an epoch that included that last ice age. The permafrost that imprisoned the tiny creature had not thawed since then, meaning this is the longest recorded cryptobiosis in nematodes — by tens of thousands of years — according to the study. Until now, the Antarctic nematode species Plectus murrayi and a Tylenchus polyhypnus specimen held this record; the former was frozen in moss for 25.5 years and the latter was desiccated in a herbarium for 39 years.
The researchers analyzed the newly described nematode's genes and compared them to those of Caenorhabditis elegans roundworms, which were the first multicellular organisms to have their entire genome sequenced. In the absence of established genetic methods to study the recently thawed worm, C. elegans provided a well-studied model organism for comparison. The analysis revealed several shared genes linked to cryptobiosis.
To find out exactly how nematodes can survive for such long periods, the researchers got a new group of P. kolymaensis and C. elegans worms and mildly desiccated them in the lab. As the worms entered anhydrobiosis, the team observed a spike in the production of a sugar called trehalose, which they think could help protect the nematodes' cell membranes from dehydration. They then froze the worms at minus 112 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 80 degrees Celsius) and found that desiccation improved the survival rates of both species. Worms that were frozen at this temperature without being dehydrated beforehand died instantly, according to the study.
Equipped with molecular pathways to cope with Arctic conditions, nematodes have evolved to survive in these hibernating states for many thousands of years, the researchers concluded. "Our findings indicate that by adapting to survive [in a] cryptobiotic state for short time frames in environments like permafrost, some nematode species gained the potential for individual worms to remain in the state for geological timeframes," they wrote in the study.
This means that extinct nematode species could be revived if they escape from the permafrost, the researchers noted. "Drastic changes" to the environment in which they lay dormant, including fluctuations in temperature and natural radioactivity, can wake ancient nematodes from their deep slumber, they added.
The nematode was able to survive in the permafrost for so long by entering a state of suspended animation called cryptobiosis

Wereldrecord: Siberische worm ontwaakt na 46.000 jaar uit gesmolten permafrost
Wereldrecord: Siberische worm ontwaakt na 46.000 jaar uit gesmolten permafrost
Wat je noemt een ‘winterslaap’. Een tot nu toe onbekende soort microscopisch kleine worm blijkt volgens een internationaal team van wetenschappers liefst 46.000 jaar te hebben overleefd in de permafrost van Siberië. De worm, een zogeheten nematode of rondworm, lag al die tijd in de fossiele overblijfselen van een eekhoornnestje. De extreem lange levensduur van de worm is een wereldrecord.
De nieuwe soort heet ‘Panagrolaimus kolymaensis’, zo schrijft het wetenschappelijke tijdschrift ‘Scientific American’. Het beestje werd gevonden bij de Kolymarivier in een stuk permafrost, de permanent bevroren bodem in het ijskoude noordoosten van Rusland, dat in 2002 door wetenschappers werd uitgegraven. In 2018 werd de worm voorzichtig ontdooid, waarna het dier ontwaakte. Het was toen echter nog niet bekend tot welke soort de worm behoorde en hoe oud het was.
Nu blijkt dat het om een tot nu toe onbekende soort gaat, en wel een die langer dan welke andere door mensen waargenomen levensvorm heeft kunnen overleven. De onderzoekers maakten hun vondst vrijdag bekend in het wetenschappelijke tijdschrift ‘PLOS Genetics’.
Overleven in extreme omgevingen gedurende lange periodes is een uitdaging waar slechts een handvol organismen toe in staat is
Wetenschappers in tijdschrift ‘PLOS Genetics’
Cryptobiose
“Overleven in extreme omgevingen gedurende lange periodes is een uitdaging waar slechts een handvol organismen toe in staat is,” schreven de wetenschappers in het blad. “Hier tonen we aan dat een bodemnematode ‘Panagrolaimus kolymaensis’ 46.000 jaar lang het leven heeft opgeschort in de Siberische permafrost.”
De rondworm kon zo extreem lang in zulke barre omstandigheden overleven door een proces dat bekend staat als ‘cryptobiose’ , een overlevingsstrategie van minuscuul kleine diertjes, waarbij ze hun stofwisseling en andere biologische processen weten af te zwakken tot ze niet meer waarneembaar zijn. Op die manier kunnen ze extreme omstandigheden als uitdroging, bevriezing en zelfs radioactieve straling in het vacuüm van de ruimte overleven.
Cryptobiose is vooral bekend geworden dankzij waterbeertjes, veelvuldig voorkomende diertjes van een halve millimeter. In 2007 en 2011 bleken waterbeertjes proeven van de Europese en Amerikaanse ruimtevaartagentschappen, die ze blootstelden aan de extreme temperaturen, straling en het bijna-vacuüm in de ruimte, te hebben overleefd.
KIJK OOK. Wetenschappers ontdekten dat de asteroïde die 66 miljoen jaar geleden de dinosauriërs deed uitsterven, een enorme krater sloeg in het noordelijk halfrond. De inslag veroorzaakte grote golfslagen die vissen levend begroeven.
I found some unusual items in a Mars photo. There was a hollow stone, but the inside looks like it's been cut and shaped to make a unique and spacious interior for something that once lived within it.
I also found a cut out doorway, which reveals a whitish freshly cut out area which is 100% proof that something is currently living on Mars.
I also found a huge claw, which measures about half a meter and looks like it once belonged to some huge alien creature and then got petrified (turned to stone) from the minerals in the Mars soil and through millions of years.
Strongly enough I found a handle sticking up. The handle has two ends that are curved and a large opening for a hand to grab onto. It's about 8 inches across and would easily fit in a human hand.
These objects are significant because they help us think about and explore the possibilities of alien life in our universe. So many mysteries out there, so few answers.

2nd UFO Report From New Jersey today, July 29, 2023, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: July 29, 2023
Location of sighting: New Jersey, USA
Source: MUFON
This is the second UFO video report to come in from New Jersey today. It may actually be the same UFO, but having a different color and glow to it since it was seen during sunset here. The UFO showed up just as a storm was hitting Jersey and UFOs are often seen around unusual weather phenomena like tornados, earthquakes, typhoons and such. I have long believed that the alien craft can create these weather phenomena on purpose to conduct experiments on both nature and humanities reaction to it.
Scott C. Waring
Eyewitness states:
Right before a storm here, my husband noticed a small object moving fast through the sky. I got a quick photo then ran to my front yard and was able to capture it on video. It moved very quickly through the sky. We never see helicopters or planes fly in this direction by us. It disappeared into the clouds.

This report just in. The dark craft was seen flying over a neighborhood in New Jersey, USA yesterday. I made a screenshot of the craft and you can see there is a glow around it...or rather an aura of energy. That is a sign of a true UFO. Alien tech causes this aura around it and thus many of the photos of UFOs have been blurry because of this aura. It's not caused on purpose but rather caused by the propulsion system itself.
Mysterious Orb burst into a bright green color before disappearing into space
Mysterious Orb burst into a bright green color before disappearing into space
An orb what looks like some form of energy appears from behind the trees, hits the roof of a house, whereupon the orb then burst into a bright green color before bouncing off of the roof into space at a very high rate of speed.
As MrMBB333 states: I don't think it was any type of a bird, as we see no wings flapping, besides, I don't know how a bird could have burst into a bright green color like it did right there when it made contact with the roof and then it remained illuminated as it took off into the nighttime sky.
What could this mysterious object have been? Something supernatural, a natural phenomenon or could it have been an alien probe under intelligent control? Orbs, spheres, it is a phenomenon that is not yet understood.

UFO Whistleblower: U.S. recovered nonhuman biological pilots from crashed UFOs
UFO Whistleblower: U.S. recovered nonhuman biological pilots from crashed UFOs
During the congressional hearing Wednesday, David Grusch, a former high-ranking intelligence official, who is one of three military whistleblowers testified under oath, asserted that the US government has had possession of UFOs since as early as the 1930s.
He also disclosed that these highly advanced crafts have been subject to covert back-engineering efforts, aiming to unlock their remarkable capabilities. He further claimed that the government has actively engaged in a disinformation campaign to conceal these classified activities and prevent any public leaks of sensitive information.
Grush also stated that several members of Congress possessing top-secret clearances have reportedly been denied access to military bases containing information related to UAP/UFOs and he suggested that people have been harmed and murdered by the US government as part of the conspiracy to keep UFOs a secret.
He goes on to say that certain military industrial complex companies may be inflating costs for government projects and weapons as a means to generate additional funds for secretive black budget projects including the engineering of their own UAPs/UFOs.
And perhaps the most significant statement from Grush is that he had interviewed government officials who had direct knowledge of UAPs/UFOs with "nonhuman" origins, and that these so-called "biologics" (pilots) were recovered from some crashed UAPs/UFOs.
In the video below Grush talks and confirms that U.S. recovered nonhuman biological pilots from crashed UFOs.

He also disclosed that these highly advanced crafts have been subject to covert back-engineering efforts, aiming to unlock their remarkable capabilities. He further claimed that the government has actively engaged in a disinformation campaign to conceal these classified activities and prevent any public leaks of sensitive information.
Grush also stated that several members of Congress possessing top-secret clearances have reportedly been denied access to military bases containing information related to UAP/UFOs and he suggested that people have been harmed and murdered by the US government as part of the conspiracy to keep UFOs a secret.
He goes on to say that certain military industrial complex companies may be inflating costs for government projects and weapons as a means to generate additional funds for secretive black budget projects including the engineering of their own UAPs/UFOs.
And perhaps the most significant statement from Grush is that he had interviewed government officials who had direct knowledge of UAPs/UFOs with "nonhuman" origins, and that these so-called "biologics" (pilots) were recovered from some crashed UAPs/UFOs.
In the video below Grush talks and confirms that U.S. recovered nonhuman biological pilots from crashed UFOs.

Japanese Government Discloses Hidden UFO Encounters
In an era that often seems defined by the unveiling of concealed truths, few revelations have been as captivating as the global recognition of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena, more commonly referred to as UFOs. As several governments worldwide have gradually begun to disclose previously classified information, an intriguing pattern has begun to emerge, challenging both our understanding of aviation and our place in the cosmos. This article explores this fascinating issue, shining a light on a topic that was once dismissed but is now increasingly commanding international attention.
For decades, the existence of UFOs was largely dismissed by officials in many countries, including the United States. The official stance was one of denial or, at the very least, calculated silence. However, a significant shift occurred in 2017 when the U.S. officially acknowledged its investigations into UAPs. This admission signaled a landmark change in the global discussion surrounding UFOs.
Interestingly, not all nations trailed behind the United States. Some had been diligently studying the skies long before the U.S. disclosure. In South America, for instance, Chile has been at the forefront of UAP research. As far back as 1997, the Chilean government created the Committee for the Study of Anomalous Aerial Phenomena. The Committee is tasked with examining all reports of UAP activity, whether they come from commercial, military, or civilian sources. In 2014, the Chilean naval officers captured video of an unidentifiable aerial object, indicating the scope and intensity of UAP activity in the region.
Other South American countries, such as Brazil, Peru, and Bolivia, also possess rich histories of UFO encounters and extraterrestrial theories that are interwoven into their cultural heritage. This cultural acceptance, coupled with a more open-minded approach, has allowed these countries to delve deeper into the study of UAPs, often with less societal resistance than in other parts of the world.
Japan offers a contrasting narrative to the South American experience. The Asian nation long denied the existence of UFOs, even making an official statement to that effect in 2018. However, this posture changed in 2020 when Japan’s Defense Minister, Taro Kono, instructed the Japanese self-defense forces to visually record any encounters with unexplained crafts.

This shift in Japanese policy appears to have been triggered by a meeting with U.S. Defense Secretary Mark Esper, highlighting the increasing global cooperation on UFO investigations. Ancient astronaut theorists and researchers view this shift in policy as significant evidence that governments worldwide are now acknowledging the potential reality of objects in our skies that may not originate from our planet.
The rapidly evolving narrative of UAPs and global recognition of their existence has opened a new chapter in our understanding of the universe. The issue of UFOs, once confined to the realms of science fiction and conspiracy theory, is now becoming an accepted area of investigation and discussion among world governments.
The current landscape signals a new era of transparency and investigation that seeks to explore the unexplained phenomena in our skies. As governments worldwide continue their research and share findings, we can only expect this topic to become more central in our conversations about aviation, defense, and perhaps even our existence. Whether this leads to earth-shattering discoveries or simply a more nuanced understanding of atmospheric phenomena, only time will tell. The sky, as it seems, is no longer the limit.
In the labyrinth of Cold War espionage, a veil of secrecy shrouded the unexplained aerial phenomena that played out in the skies above the Soviet Union. While the arms race and political tensions between East and West dominated global headlines, an equally compelling mystery was unfolding in the stratosphere. The stories of strange, unidentified flying objects (UFOs) began trickling into the public sphere, gaining credibility through the testimonies of seasoned pilots, military officials, and civilians.
The Soviet Union’s clandestine relationship with UFOs dates back to the height of the Cold War. The infamous “Baku Incident” in 1967 remains one of the most chilling accounts, where two Soviet fighter jets were tasked to investigate an unidentified craft moving at a colossal speed over Baku, the capital of then Soviet Azerbaijan. As the jets tried to engage, the unknown object reportedly shone a bright beam, causing a blinding effect in the cockpit. After returning to base, one pilot’s health rapidly deteriorated, while the other died within a few months from cancer, purportedly a direct result of the encounter.
Despite the Soviet Union’s profound secrecy, tales of such interactions with otherworldly crafts continued to emerge. Outside the city of Omsk, hundreds of eyewitnesses, including Major V. Loginov, reported a gleaming sphere, larger than the full moon, casting luminous beams of light over a civilian airport. In another incident, a UFO hovering above a nuclear facility in Usovoin, Ukraine, allegedly activated the launch panels of stored nuclear weapons, raising the specter of an inadvertent nuclear war.
While it’s true that some UFO sightings could be attributed to secretive American aircraft or misinterpretations of natural or man-made phenomena, a significant percentage of sightings couldn’t be dismissed easily. At the time, estimates suggested about 5% of these sightings were unexplainable, mirroring the findings of American investigations.
As the frequency of these sightings escalated during the 1970s and 1980s, a conference of 100 Soviet scientists from various disciplines convened to scrutinize the UFO phenomenon. A startling result was a consensus that the UFO sightings were not just figments of mass imagination but demanded dedicated scientific examination. Thus, the “Network,” a top-secret, government-backed investigation to understand the UFO enigma, was established.

This collaboration between the Soviet Union’s elite scientific minds and the Defense Ministry analyzed thousands of UFO reports. While they debunked the majority, around 300 sightings remained inexplicable, similar to the results of the U.S. Air Force’s Project Blue Book effort.
One of the most notorious UFO sightings, dubbed the “Petrozavodsk phenomenon,” occurred in 1977 when residents of Petrozavodsk reported a bright light casting beams onto the city. The object was described as a dazzling jellyfish, morphing into a radiant semicircle before soaring away. However, some researchers suggest that this was a case of mistaken identity as a nearby secret cosmodrome had launched an object minutes before the sighting.
Despite these potential misidentifications, it’s essential to note the striking parallels between UFO sightings in the Soviet Union and the United States. This symmetry, independent of geographical boundaries and cultural differences, points to the possibility that these events might not just be earthly anomalies but could represent interactions with unknown entities, natural phenomena, or advanced technology.
The Soviet Union’s UFO legacy continues to intrigue us, casting long shadows into the present day. As the world grapples with the ongoing mysteries of unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs), understanding these historical episodes may offer invaluable insights into the enigma that has captivated mankind’s imagination for generations.
