I'm CONVINCED I've seen a UFO on my Amazon Kindle stargazing app... what else could travel that fast in the sky?

A pensioner believes he's stumbled onto proof that aliens exist and he is convinced the government and international space agencies are trying to cover up the truth. 

Retired photographer Julian Heath, who lives in the leafy enclave of Wallington in Surrey, has taken to stargazing with the help of the subscription app Stellarium, which he installed on his Amazon Kindle Fire. 

The app allows users to explore the solar system and track satellites in real-time, which led Julian to his rogue discovery: a small 'alien' craft travelling around the world every six seconds. 

'I think it's alien, we've got nothing in this world that would travel round the world at that speed, Julian tells MailOnline. 

'There's nothing that Earthlings can produce that can travel that fast.' 

Retired photographer Julian Heath is convinced he has found a UFO on a stargazing app

The pensioner claims to have spotted the object on his Amazon Kindle and he claims it can orbit the earth in six seconds 

Julien stumbled across his new hobby while browsing the apps on his Amazon Kindle and freely admits he's not an expert in the field. 

He continued: 'It's quite a fascinating thing to watch, because you can see when the sun is rising and you can see the satellites in the sky. 

'You can also see the constellations and track how slow or how fast the satellites are moving. 

'I was looking at it a few days ago and suddenly this thing zoomed across the the screen.' 

The object that caught Julien's eye was a small satellite which appeared to be zooming around the planet once every six seconds.  

Assuming it was a bug, Julien thought nothing of the phenomenon but when he relogged onto the app a few days later it appeared again. 

His suspicions raised, Julian began his search for the truth, but claims he has been frustrated by a lack of transparency from government agencies. 

He continued: 'I hadn't realised at the time that it has a tag on it, which means that the powers that be know about it.

'It's clearly travelling around the world at great heights and seems to slightly shift to the right every single scan. 

'It has to be some kind of UFO, and it looks as though it's scanning the world.

'I did rather stupidly go and stand out in the garden one clear night and look up at where it was, but at that speed you wouldn't see anything anyway.

'Somebody knows about it, and they're keeping quiet about it.

'I tried the Home Office and I tried the Ministry of Defence, but not one of them has any sort of contact details on their website for the public. 

'They obviously don't want people like me sending emails to them.' 

With no clarity on the matter, Julien has taken to watching the skies from his garden

Julian believes that as the object has been tagged government agencies must be aware of it

With no clarity as of yet, Julian says he has had to confide in his wife who is less enthused by his discovery than himself.  

He said: 'I’ve told my wife and she sort of looks at me with a stare, and doesn’t say a word. I know she thinks I'm nuts.

'Other friends I've told as well but as they don't have the app it's hard to explain.' 

According to Brown University, the fastest time in which a man made satellite can complete an orbit of the earth is 90 minutes. 

MailOnline has approached Stellarium for more information on the strange object.

500 People Reported A ‘Fleet’ Of UFOs Over One Small US Town. Now It’s Their Legacy

KAY SMYTHE

NEWS AND COMMENTARY WRITER

Missouri State Rep. Chris Dinkins officially named the town of Piedmont its “UFO Capital” back in August. And the reason why is actually kind of terrifying.

Seemingly hundreds of Piedmont’s residents have seen UFOs floating around over the years, according to KSDK.

“My grandpa loved to spin a tall tale about things he saw,” Piedmont’s Chamber of Commerce executive director, Sara Phillips, told the outlet. It all started back in 1973, when more than 500 people called local law enforcement to report a “fleet” of alien spaceships flying over their homes.

“One resident said that if they had to estimate half the residents had seen something in the sky. Clearwater Lake becomes kind of the epicenter of this,” said State Historical Society of Missouri member Sean Rost. “There are people reporting seeing lights above the water. There are people seeing lights under the water.”

The FBI and the military were called in to deal with the situation and to explain the situation to locals. But, to date, no firm explanation has even been provided.

To mark the 50th anniversary of the event, House Bill 1261 officially designates Piedmont as the “UFO Capital of Missouri.” The bill was sponsored by State Rep. Chris Dinkins in the hopes it’ll attract more tourists to spot the lights that apparently still fly over the tiny little .

EXCLUSIVE: Retired US Army Colonel says secret UFO projects should be made public by October 2030 - to beat America's rivals and get ahead of a 'catastrophic' leak

• The revelations came amid an invite-only UFO gathering at Stanford University
• But many at the exclusive event worried UFO disclosure may spark social unrest
• READ MORE: Air Force police officer breaks silence on giant 'red, glowing UFO'

By MATTHEW PHELAN IN PALO ALTO FOR DAILYMAIL.COM

Nearly two decades ago, a think-tank in Washington D.C. invited past and present government officials from the CIA, the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), the Pentagon and elsewhere to debate the risks of revealing the truth about UFOs.

The 2004 event — according to a former CIA scientist who went public with the shocking story Friday — broke into working groups to weigh the positive and negative ramifications of declassifying America's top secret UFO programs. 

Every working group according to that scientist, Dr. Hal Puthoff, came back with the same co

But now, a host of Washington insiders are calling for a strategic 'campaign' to drag these alleged UFO reverse-engineering programs out into public view.

The Sol Foundation, a new nonprofit dedicated to exploring the broad implications of what are now called 'Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena' or UAP, convened its first ever symposium Friday, sponsored by Stanford University's School of Medicine 

Sol's lofty goal, as described by its chief operating officer - the now famous UFO whistleblower and US Air Force and intel veteran David Grusch - is to 'open ourselves to a future where truth, unity, technological advancements and a deeper understanding of our existence converge'

The pivot emerged this weekend at an invite-only conference of former government officials, tenured physicists and other academic researchers, activists and reporters, held at Stanford University and attended by DailyMail.com.

The most explosive moments from the UFO event — the first ever symposium of the new nonprofit Sol Foundation, which is dedicated to exploring the broad implications of what are now called 'Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena' or UAP — came from recently retired US Army Colonel Karl E. Nell.

On Saturday, Col. Nell called for a 'UAP campaign plan' to compel transparency as well as 'a Manhattan Project' to successfully reverse engineer recovered UAP craft.  

His stated goals, as heard by DailyMail.com at the event, were nothing less than broad transparency on covert UAP programs 'on or before conclusion of the decade.'

In a later slide, Col. Nell projected his strategic hope that so-called 'disclosure' on the UAP issue would be complete by October 1, 2030, although he admitted his timeline targets were 'at risk' of falling behind.

The Sol Foundation's lofty goal, as described by the now famous UFO whistleblower and US Air Force veteran David Grusch, was to 'open ourselves to a future where truth, unity, technological advancements and a deeper understanding of our existence converge.' 

Grusch, who now serves as the group's chief operating officer, delivered the concluding remarks for Sol's first ever symposium Saturday night, via a remote live video feed. 

'Let us advocate for transparency, not for ourselves,' Grusch told the assembled attendees, 'but for the generations to come, as we embark on a journey toward a more enlightened and interconnected world.'

Last June, Col. Nell staked his own reputation to Grusch's public testimony on UFOs, calling the UFO whistleblower 'beyond reproach' and vouching for Grusch's allegations of a secret, decades-long and illegal UFO crash retrieval and reverse-engineering program.

But the most explosive moments from Sol's two-day symposium came from retired US Army Colonel Karl Nell (left). Col. Nell called for a 'UAP campaign plan' to compel transparency as well as 'a Manhattan Project' to more successfully reverse-engineer recovered UAP craft

Col. Nell (above) called UFO whistleblower David Grusch 'beyond reproach' when Grusch's allegations of a secret, decades-long and illegal UFO reverse-engineering program became public in June. He said he wants to avoid 'catastrophic disclosure' on UAP initiated by a US rival

Col. Nell was one among a host of Washington insiders at Sol calling for a strategic 'campaign' to drag these alleged UFO reverse-engineering programs out into public view. He expressed the hope that the general public would compel their representatives in Congress on the issue

In one slide (above), Col. Nell projected strategic hopes that 'disclosure' on the UAP issue would be complete by October 1, 2030, although he admitted his timeline targets were 'at risk' of falling behind. Col. Nell was previously a 'modernization advisor' to Army Futures Command

Geneticist Dr. Garry Nolan, whose Stanford lab houses some of the world's most precise equipment for measuring the atomic and molecular structure of physical samples, is a co-founder of Sol and its executive director.

The group's sweeping mission statement, according to its website, is to develop policy around the believed 'broad consequences' of UAP 'for the future of science, technology, economy, politics, law, religion, culture, and all other human institutions and endeavors.'

To that end, the group's other co-founder, Peter Skafish, is an anthropologist focused on the social implications of humanity's potential (or already occurring) encounters with the 'non-human intelligences,' which Grusch has said pilot these UAP.   

Due largely to Dr. Nolan's efforts, the Sol Foundation event was sponsored by Stanford University's School of Medicine. 

Col. Nell's comments raised eyebrows among attendees, in no small measure because of the senior army official's final military posting.

Col. Nell was a 'modernization advisor' to the Army Futures Command engaged in the 'most significant Army reorganization since 1973' — which has spearheaded the development of remote-operated and unmanned robotic combat vehicles, AI projects and other advancements.

Nobel Prize nominee and CIA scientist Dr. Hal Puthoff, who worked in the government's 2008-2012 UFO program called AAWSAP, once told DailyMail.com that he had briefed Congress on classified information about UFO reverse-engineering programs

Chris Mellon, formerly with the Secretary of Defense for Intelligence, told Sol he had recently spoken with someone still in the Defense Department. Mellon's source said that more revelations and more high-resolution images were coming soon

From 2021 to 2022, Col. Nell was assigned as the Army's dedicated liaison to the Pentagon's UAP Task Force.

After apologizing for framing his recommendations to citizen UAP advocates in military terms, Col. Nell detailed tactical 'lines of effort' he hoped the public, government officials and scientists might execute, in parallel, as part of a collaborative effort to advance scientific understanding of UAP.

Perhaps most ambitiously, Col. Nell expressed the hope of direct 'engagement' with the 'non-human intelligences,' or perhaps extraterrestrial beings, piloting UAP sometime in the next decade — a new 'interactive' era of 'scientific discovery.' 

But, first and foremost, Col. Nell described his proposal as an effort to 'avoid catastrophic disclosure,' meaning a chaotic release of Earth-shattering revelations designed to sow discord, whether by independent actors or by one of the United States' foreign rivals. 

In an echo of the 2004 think-tank exercise detailed by Dr. Puthoff earlier at this Sol event, multiple speakers at the conference floated potential dangers that could arise from future revelations about allegedly secret UAP programs.

Belgian artificial intelligence entrepreneur Jonathan Berte, founder of Robovision and Sol's chief financial officer, looked to the late 19th century Industrial Revolution to suggest that tech breakthroughs from UAP could actually worsen climate change. 

The discovery of oil during that period, Berte noted, actually led to a massive increase in coal mining, as older energy sources were pushed to their limits in an effort to build the hardware and equipment needed to exploit the new, emerging energy sources.

Berte suggested a similar Catch-22 could plague even the most utopian of new technologies or energy sources that may one day derive from UAP.

Another speaker, former Secretary of Defense for Intelligence official Chris Mellon, expressed similar worries about social unrest, economic turmoil and a possible international arms race that could follow further revelations on the UAP topic.

At one point, Mellon floated the possibility that 'disclosure' might change the behavior of UAP and whatever is controlling them, because they no longer have an incentive to hide and remain clandestine. 

He worried further about how governments might overreact, causing an aggressive response from UAP and their alleged occupants.

Nevertheless, he described himself as in favor of further UAP disclosure. 

Since helping leak three unclassified UFO videos to the New York Times in 2017 — sightings that remain unexplained to this day — Mellon has spearheaded efforts to compel the US government to investigate UFOs more seriously and more openly. 

The former DoD official challenged the idea that the measured 'controlled disclosure' described by Col. Nell could occur at all, attributing the current state of affairs to similar principled stands by activist-insiders.

In fact, Mellon said that he had recently spoken with someone still within the Defense Department and that more revelations and more high-resolution images were coming soon. 

'The US government is working on a declassification guide,' Mellon said, 'So with that there will be better imagery to be publicly released soon.' 

'Maybe not 100 percent in focus,' he added, 'but better imagery.'

UFO Secrets Hidden by the Government

The sky has always been a source of wonder and mystery, sparking curiosity and countless questions. One of the most fascinating and elusive topics in this realm is that of Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs). Recent years have seen a resurgence in UFO sightings, bringing with them a renewed interest and a barrage of questions: Are we alone in the universe? What are these mysterious objects? This article delves into the world of UFO sightings, exploring the latest developments and the ongoing quest to understand these enigmatic occurrences.

Recent Surge in UFO Sightings:

In recent years, UFO sightings have moved from the realm of conspiracy theories to a subject of legitimate inquiry. The US government’s acknowledgment of the existence of the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP) and the release of several declassified videos by the Pentagon have added credibility to these sightings. Videos showing high-speed objects with no visible means of propulsion have intrigued not only the public but also the scientific community.

The Tic Tac Incident:

One of the most famous UFO sightings in recent history is the 2004 USS Nimitz encounter, commonly referred to as the “Tic Tac” incident. This sighting involved a radar-visual encounter by several Navy pilots, who observed a 40-foot long, tic-tac-shaped object performing maneuvers seemingly impossible with current human technology. This incident, captured on advanced infrared systems, remains unexplained and continues to be a significant point of reference in UFO discussions.

The Role of To The Stars Academy:

In bridging the gap between these mysterious sightings and the public, organizations like To The Stars Academy have been instrumental. Founded by notable figures such as Luis Elizondo, the former head of AATIP, and supported by experts from various fields, the organization aims to research and publicize information about UFO phenomena.

Scientific Interest and Research:

The scientific interest in UFO sightings has escalated recently. Researchers are now approaching the subject with a new level of seriousness, analyzing data and looking for patterns that could provide insights. The goal is not just to prove or disprove the existence of extraterrestrial life but to understand the physics and technology behind these sightings.

Governmental Disclosure:

The shift in the government’s stance on UFO sightings is notable. With the release of classified documents and videos, there is a newfound transparency that encourages further investigation and public discourse. This openness is a significant step towards demystifying the phenomenon and potentially understanding the technology behind these sightings.

The exploration of UFO sightings opens up a universe of possibilities and questions. While the truth behind these sightings remains elusive, the ongoing investigations, both by governmental agencies and private organizations, promise to shed light on these mysterious occurrences. Whether these sightings are a result of advanced earthly technology or evidence of extraterrestrial visitations, the search for answers continues to captivate and intrigue us.

Alex Dietrich (Ret.) served as one of the nation’s first female strike-fighter aviators as a F/A-18 pilot from 2001-2020. 

Yesterday, the President held a press conference on the issue of Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) due to a flurry of recent activity. 

The nation was captivated by a suspected Chinese reconnaissance balloon floated across the continental United States. This incident prompted NORAD and other U.S. agencies to adjust their radar scans. The filter changes have exposed more unidentified objects, and another three were shot down over the weekend. These events highlight a longstanding domain awareness gap confronting our collective consciousness on three fronts: military defense, aviation safety, and scientific inquiry. 

Officials have since disclosed that the Chinese military had previously breached U.S. airspace on at least four other occasions. We are now aware of these earlier incursions due to political and popular pressure to investigate and disclose UAP activity. 

I started asking the same questions nearly 20 years ago in an F/A-18F flying off the coast of California. My colleagues and I encountered something we could not explain: an anomalous flying object in broad daylight against a clear blue sky and calm waters. Our carrier strike group had been watching anomalous hits on the radar for days. Once airborne, we were vectored and asked to investigate. We merged and visually acquired the object, a matte white oblong shape with no apparent flight control surfaces, visible means of propulsion, or smoke trail. Yet it outmaneuvered us with ease. We communicated in real-time via radio and then debriefed the intelligence team and chain of command back aboard the ship. Another F/A-18F launched and managed to capture video of the object with its forward-looking infrared (FLIR). A screenshot of that video has since become an iconic symbol of UAP encounters.

The Nimitz encounter is one of many. Pilots and credible eyewitnesses on the ground for years have reported and verified objects with unknown provenance and exotic capabilities. It would be irresponsible to suggest that any or all of these reports represent the same tech or are of the same origin. They are, by definition, unidentified. But we do know that collectively these anomalies expose a blindspot in our ability to sense them in the first place, track them in real time, and predict where they might pop up next. 

Are UFOs real? Yes. Are they a foreign adversary? Maybe. Are they extraterrestrial in nature? It’s possible. Should we keep investigating? Absolutely.

There are many potential answers to the UAP mystery, and those answers are not necessarily mutually exclusive. Truth is persistent. Whatever is happening here, it will be revealed. How quickly depends on our collective commitment to authorize and resource appropriate agencies who can effectively leverage sensor technology, capture crowdsourced reporting, and mine the collective data.    

Despite persistent snickering, anytime the topic of UFOs is broached, NASA has managed to convene a committee of respected high-ranking representatives from the DoD, FAA, and academic institutions for an ongoing UAP study.

The Pentagon’s commitment has evolved from the small Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification (AATIP) program into the robust All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO). Private industry is rising to the occasion with rapid innovation and agile solutions.

(Credit: Alex Dietrich).

Enigma Labs is on the leading edge with a mechanism to systematically capture and analyze reporting at scale.

Congress has also made an impressive bipartisan push on the issue, with Senators Gillibrand (D-NY), Rubio (R-FL), Warner (D-VA), Graham (R-SC), Heinrich (D-NM), Blunt (R-MO), and Representative Gallagher (R-WI) speaking out to break the taboo and push agencies to cooperate and take UAP seriously. 

The partnership between multiple objective parties, systematic data collection, and careful analytical methods will move us toward reporting and listening, away from ridicule and stigma. We can move the needle away from the unknown and toward the known. 

Be vigilant. Stay curious. Look up. We have barely tasted the sky. 

• Lieutenant Commander Alex Dietrich (Ret.) served as one of the nation’s first female strike-fighter aviators as a F/A-18 pilot from 2001-2020. She logged more than 1,250 flight hours, 375 carrier-arrested landings, and was awarded a Combat Air Medal for 206 combat missions flown in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) and Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF). She was also awarded a Bronze Star medal for a boots-on-ground deployment to Afghanistan in 2010. She has since taught leadership, ethics, and critical thinking at the George Washington University, U.S. Naval Academy, and now serves on the faculty of the University of Colorado School of Engineering in Boulder. Dietrich is an advocate for Legacy Flight Academy, a foundation that promotes diversity in aviation, and Wings for Val, supporting women in aviation.

A spherical, white unidentified flying object (UFO) recently led to the temporary shutdown of an airport in Manipur, India. According to reliable sources, the UFO was first spotted by the pilot of an Indigo flight scheduled for departure at approximately 2:20 pm. In response to this sighting, all flight operations were promptly suspended, and normal activities only resumed around 6 pm. The mysterious UFO remained visible until approximately 4 pm. 

Bhaskar Salam, a passenger on the affected flight, recounted the confusion and uncertainty surrounding the situation. He expressed that he was unaware of the circumstances and was informed that the flight couldn't take off due to an unidentified object hovering in the sky. Flight operator officials, however, remained uncertain about the nature of the object. 

Imphal West Superintendent of Police, Ksh Shivakanta Singh, shed light on the perplexing incident, stating that the object lingered in the sky for several hours, before disappearing without a trace. The mysterious nature of the UFO has left both authorities and witnesses puzzled, with no conclusive explanation for its presence or sudden disappearance.

Crashed Ship On Mars With Pilot Sitting Near It, Nov 19, 2023, UFO Sighting News.

Date of discovery: Nov 19, 2023

Location of discovery: Mars

New source: 

• http://gigapan.com/gigapans/233826

I was going through this Mars Gigapan photo and noticed some really odd object that just jumped out at me. These things really scream out "created by intelligent life." The most interesting of them all were both a ship and a sitting pilot near the craft. The ship had balanced sides and it has a rectangle open door at its back. The pilot is sitting down, knowing he was about to die, looked off into the distance where his loved ones were, maybe a planet far away or maybe just far off on Mars. The pilot has a suit on, and his helmet is open where the visor would be. 

 

I also found some other objects, giant heads, long structures, a crushed disk, and a hollow caved in orb. I can only dream what I could accomplish if NASA gave me control of the rover for a month.

Credo Mutwa’s Alien Encounters in African Lore

In the realm of extraterrestrial encounters and ancient folklore, few figures stand out as vividly as Credo Mutwa, a South African Zulu shaman. His accounts, deeply rooted in African culture and laced with the enigma of alien contact, present a fascinating tapestry of interstellar narratives.

The Mantidines: An Enigmatic Presence

Central to Mutwa’s experiences are the Mantidines, beings that merge the features of Greys and Mantis-like creatures. These entities are not just visually striking, with their black eyes and snake-like irises, but also carry a unique, unforgettable odor. Mutwa’s description paints a vivid image of beings that are as mysterious as they are intimidating. Their name, derived from a word meaning to mistreat and abuse, hints at their ominous nature, especially in their interactions with human beings.

Chitauri: The Underground Reptilians

The Chitauri, described as intelligent, aggressive reptilian beings, add a darker hue to Mutwa’s alien tapestry. Residing in subterranean realms, these creatures are tied to rituals of human sacrifice and blood-drinking, echoing ancient human fears of the underworld. The Chitauri’s characteristics resonate with global myths of lizard-like entities, suggesting a universal archetype embedded in human consciousness.

Wasungu: The Pre-European Visitors

The Wasungu, described as white-skinned aliens arriving in boomerang-shaped spacecraft, challenge conventional history. According to Mutwa, their presence in Africa predates European exploration, hinting at a forgotten epoch of alien-human interaction on the African continent. This narrative invites us to ponder the possibility of ancient, advanced civilizations and their extraterrestrial connections.

A Future Connection

Perhaps most intriguing is Mutwa’s theory that these aliens, especially the Mantidines, originate from our future rather than outer space. This hypothesis posits that their intimate interactions with humans, such as the capability to impregnate Earth women, signify a connection that transcends extraterrestrial origins. Mutwa suggests these beings are our descendants, embittered by the legacy of our actions, and seeking retribution for our future transgressions.

VIDEO:

• Credo Mutwa On Alien Secrets

Credo Mutwa’s stories blend traditional African folklore with the mysterious realm of alien encounters. They serve not just as a record of extraterrestrial contact but also as a mirror reflecting our fears, hopes, and the timeless quest for understanding our place in the cosmos. His narratives challenge us to look beyond the stars and within ourselves, exploring the depths of human experience and its potential connection to the vast universe.

India: UFO Alert at Imphal Airport: Mysterious Object in the Sky Halts Flights and Sparks Intrigue!

The Unfolding of a Mystery in the Skies of Imphal

On a seemingly ordinary Sunday, the skies of Imphal, Manipur, bore witness to an extraordinary event. The Bir Tikendrajit International Airport became the epicenter of intrigue and curiosity as it experienced what many might call a scene from a sci-fi movie: a UFO sighting.

The Sight that Halted Flights

It was around 2:30 PM, a time typically bustling with the day-to-day activities of an airport. However, the routine was abruptly disrupted when an unidentified flying object was spotted hovering above the airport. This sighting was not a fleeting glimpse; the UFO remained visible, intriguing and mystifying onlookers, until around 4 PM.

A Coordinated Response

The response to this unprecedented event was swift and systematic. The Indian Air Force (IAF) was promptly alerted, and they activated their air defense mechanisms, a testament to the seriousness with which such sightings are regarded. The airport’s airspace was temporarily sealed off, and flight operations were suspended, affecting hundreds of passengers. The aerial anomaly prompted the diversion of incoming flights and the delay of departures, as safety and security took precedence.

The Human Side of the UFO Encounter

Beyond the mechanics of the airport’s operations and the strategic responses, there lies the human element. Passengers, some en route to destinations like Guwahati and Kolkata, found themselves part of an unexpected adventure. Their accounts provide a personal touch to the incident, transforming it from a mere news item into a shared human experience.

The Quest for Understanding

As with most UFO sightings, the incident at Imphal Airport sparked a flurry of questions. What was this unidentified object? Why did it appear, and where did it go? The Directorate General of Civil Aviation, in collaboration with the IAF, launched an investigation, delving into the mystery that had unfolded in the skies.

A Global Phenomenon in a Local Context

UFO sightings have always captured the human imagination, transcending geographical boundaries. From the famous Roswell incident to the numerous sightings reported worldwide, these mysterious occurrences continue to fascinate and perplex us. The Imphal incident adds to this global tapestry of unexplained aerial phenomena.

VIDEO:

The UFO sighting in Imphal is more than an isolated event; it’s a reminder of the vast, uncharted territories of our knowledge. As we continue to gaze at the skies with wonder and curiosity, such incidents serve as a nudge to the mysteries that lie beyond our understanding. The skies of Imphal may have returned to normalcy, but the questions remain, fueling our quest for answers in the endless expanse above.

Stockport woman spots bizarre Tic-Tac 'UFO' from her garden

By JONATHAN CHADWIC 

Bizarre aerial objects are usually considered an American phenomena, but new imagery shows two over the north of England. A 'concerned citizen', who wishes not to be named, has described sightings of the unidentified flying objects ( UFOs ) from her back garden in Stockport.

The first, described as looking like a square or triangle, had a hazy appearance and was changing shape and 'darting around the sky'. Meanwhile, the second object – a much brighter white in colour and 'shaped like a Tic Tac' – kept vanishing and reappearing.

One of the most famous and unusual UFOs to date, spotted by the US Navy in 2004, was the floaty white oblong similar to the breath mint. 'The triangular one was so strange, it looked like it was made of metal with a dark hole in the centre,' the citizen told MailOnline. 'The Tic Tac one was cool too, it kept getting brighter then disappearing and coming back.'

The two 'questionable' objects, which were sighted by the resident over separate nights in the first week of October, left her feeling 'concerned'. Nick Pope, a UFO expert formerly with the UK's Ministry of Defence, said the images and the story behind them are 'fascinating' but couldn't identify the aerial entities. 'It's not possible to discern much about this sighting from the photos alone,' Pope told MailOnline. 'Any mention of a Tic Tac-shaped object performing unusual manoeuvres is particularly intriguing given the US Navy sightings of such objects.'

Another British UFO researcher, Philip Mantle, said they could be 'conventional' objects such as drones or something else fairly explainable. 'One thing that is cropping up a lot of late are lights from the ground, usually an outdoor attraction of some kind,' he told MailOnline. 'These huge spot lights reflect off the low cloud. 'They look different when viewed from different angles and can look very spectacular. I've looked at lots of alleged UFO photos down the years and most turn out to be something conventional. I see no reason why these photos should not be something conventional but they are such poor quality.'

According to the Defence and Security Media Advisory (DSMA) Committee, the matter falls under the remit of UK Space Command, who MailOnline has contacted for comment. UFO stands for 'unidentified flying object' and so the term doesn't necessarily describe an object with an extraterrestrial origin.

A recent Pentagon document revealed the typical UFO has a round shape, usually described as spherical or an orb, with a white or silver colour, often translucent. 

Based on what we know from reported sightings between 1996 and 2023, other UFO shapes include rectangle, oval, triangle, disk, cylinder, square and even polygon.

Meanwhile, 16 per cent have been described as having lights, although in many cases this may have been due to their reflective qualities. The Pentagon has also released a hotspot map that reveals the location of reported UFO sightings, including Japan and the Middle East. Read the full story:

18 Craziest Alien Theories In Joe Rogan History

The universe, in its vast expanse, holds mysteries that have long captivated human imagination. One such enigma revolves around the existence of extraterrestrial life and Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs). The Joe Rogan Experience, a platform known for delving into a plethora of topics, has not shied away from exploring this fascinating subject. The podcast has hosted a diverse range of discussions, weaving a tapestry of theories and anecdotes that spark curiosity and debate.

The Historical Context of UFO Sightings

The phenomenon of UFO sightings is not a recent development. Historical accounts, such as the remarkable sighting post the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings, suggest that such occurrences have been intertwined with pivotal moments in human history. This correlation posits a theory that nuclear advancements on Earth might have piqued extraterrestrial interest, leading to increased UFO activity. It raises the question: Are we under cosmic surveillance?

The Science and Skepticism

Prominent figures like Neil deGrasse Tyson bring a scientific skepticism to the UFO discourse. Tyson’s perspective, rooted in the need for empirical evidence, challenges enthusiasts to differentiate between the unexplained and the unexplainable. His approach underlines the importance of substantiating extraordinary claims with extraordinary evidence. Yet, this skepticism does not negate the possibility of alien life but rather calls for a rigorous scientific method in its pursuit.

The Government and Secret Knowledge

The possibility that governments might possess secret knowledge about extraterrestrial beings adds a layer of intrigue to the UFO narrative. The discussions on the podcast touch upon the alleged governmental programs dedicated to UFO research and the potential of advanced technology derived from extraterrestrial sources. This shadowy aspect brings forth questions about the ethics and implications of withholding such profound information from the public.

Personal Encounters and Theories

Personal accounts and theories add a human dimension to the UFO conversation. From Jackie Gleason’s rumored UFO house inspired by an alleged encounter, to Bob Lazar‘s controversial claims about Area 51, these stories blend the lines between personal experience and folklore. They serve as a reminder of the profound impact that the prospect of alien contact can have on the human psyche.

The Cultural Impact

The cultural impact of the UFO phenomenon is undeniable. From influencing pop culture to shaping public opinion, the idea of extraterrestrial visitors has left an indelible mark on human culture. It reflects our innate desire to explore the unknown and the existential quest to understand our place in the cosmos.

Which Presidents Have Seen UFOs? Yep, It’s More Than One.

A wild history of Oval Office obsession with the biggest conspiracy theory of the modern era.

By GARRETT M. GRAFF

Early in Ronald Reagan’s second term, he asked his Soviet counterpart a seemingly off-the-wall question. Ostensibly, he and Mikhail Gorbachev had come to Lake Geneva for an arms control summit. But on a private walk around the lake, Reagan turned to his Cold War enemy and said:

‘What would you do if the United States were suddenly attacked by someone from outer space? Would you help us?’” Gorbachev later recounted. “I said, ‘No doubt about it.’ He said, ‘We too.’ So that’s interesting.”

Starship is de grootste raket ter wereld. Ze maakt deel uit van het commerciële ruimteprogramma SpaceX van de Amerikaanse ondernemer Elon Musk. De raket bestaat uit twee delen: een stuwraket, Super Heavy genaamd, en het eigenlijke ruimteschip. De volledige tweetrapsraket is zowat 120 meter hoog. 

In april was al een eerste lanceerpoging gedaan. Dat was deels een succes, omdat de raket effectief kon opstijgen. Maar net op het moment dat de draagraket zich zou loskoppelen, ontplofte alles. Het doel was om dit keer beter te doen en dat is ook gelukt. 

De lancering zelf verliep goed vandaag. Alle 33 motoren van Super Heavy werkten zoals gepland. Met succes ging de raket recht omhoog de ruimte in, met gejuich in het ruimtestation Starbase in Boca Chica (zuid-Texas) tot gevolg. 

Ook de afsplitsing van Super Heavy lukte, al ontplofte Super Heavy kort daarna. Een ramp was dat niet, want Super Heavy zou sowieso gecontroleerd neerstorten. Belangrijker was dat Starship zelf bleef doorvliegen, en dat alle zes stuwmotoren bleven werken.

So far, so good. Maar dan gebeurde het

Alles ging goed, maar enkele minuten later raakte het contact met Starship onderbroken. Er volgde een lange radiostilte, ook op de live uitzending. Uiteindelijk bleek dat de Starship ontploft was, na een achttal minuten vlucht. Starship bevond zich toen op 148 kilometer hoogte en kliefde door de ruimte met 24.000 kilometer per uur.

De ontploffing gebeurde net voor het moment dat de motoren zouden uitvallen -  Starship zou dan voldoende gelanceerd zijn om zonder stuwkracht het traject verder af te leggen. "We hebben contact verloren met de tweede trap", vertelde commentator John Insprucker op de livestream. "En we denken dat we de tweede trap (het ruimteschip Starship, red.) hebben verloren." 

Het plan was om bijna volledig rond de aarde te vliegen tijdens een anderhalf uur durende vlucht. Starship had, als alles was gelukt, gecontroleerd moeten neerstorten voor de kust van Hawaï. Dat alles lukte dus niet. Maar omdat de vlucht het dit keer toch een heel stuk langer uithield dan in april, wordt het beschouwd als een volgende succesvolle stap. 

Een tijdlang was het ruimteschip zelfstandig op weg door de ruimte.

Felicitaties van de baas, maar ook van NASA

Elon Musk zelf feliciteerde zijn team na de "opwindende" tweede vlucht. Hij onderstreepte dat alle 33 Raptor-motoren van Super Heavy op de afspraak waren, en dat de loskoppeling is gelukt.

"Bij een test als deze heeft succes te maken met wat je eruit leert. De test van vandaag zal ons helpen om de betrouwbaarheid van Starship te verhogen met het oog op de toekomst en de interplanetaire plannen", liet SpaceX nog weten. 

Maar ook Bill Nelson, de baas van de Amerikaanse ruimtevaartorganisatie NASA, had lof in petto. Hij feliciteerde de SpaceX-ploeg voor de "vooruitgang" die vandaag is geboekt. "Ruimtevaart is een straf avontuur waarbij je de juiste instelling moet hebben - dingen gewoon doen en durven vernieuwen. Vandaag is een kans om te leren - en dan opnieuw te vliegen." 

Maanprogramma

Starship moet een belangrijke rol gaan spelen in de plannen om weer mensen op de maan te krijgen. De raket brengt daarbij een maanlander in een baan om de maan, waarin astronauten dan kunnen overstappen om uiteindelijk voet op de maan te zetten.

Starship moet later, in samenwerking met de NASA, ook vracht vervoeren richting de maan. In een latere fase moet Starship ook een rol gaan spelen in het reizen naar Mars.

The successful test took place on November 14th, and during the test, data was transmitted and received by both the spacecraft and the ground station, a phenomenon called “closing the link.” The successful test is the DSOC’s ‘first light.’

“Achieving first light is one of many critical DSOC milestones in the coming months, paving the way toward higher-data-rate communications capable of sending scientific information, high-definition imagery, and streaming video in support of humanity’s next giant leap: sending humans to Mars,” said Trudy Kortes, director of Technology Demonstrations at NASA Headquarters in Washington.

The technology may be coming to fruition just in time. As our spacecraft instruments become more powerful and as the amount of data they send back grows, current spacecraft communication systems are struggling to keep up. High-bandwidth laser communication systems should relieve the bandwidth bottleneck that hampers existing missions.

Current spacecraft communication systems are based on state-of-the-art radio systems. But the infrared laser system at the heart of DSOC works with data transmission rates from 10 to 100 times greater than radio systems.

The benefits are obvious if the system can be perfected.

Currently, spacecraft communicate with Earth using NASA’s Deep Space Network (DSN). The DSN is made up of three facilities around the world, separated by about 120 degrees. So, no matter where a spacecraft is, it can communicate with one of the facilities. The three facilities are in California, Spain, and Australia.

The DSN is reliable, and NASA allows other spacefaring nations to use the system. But since it’s based on radio communications, it’s becoming an outdated bottleneck.

While the DSN and other space communications systems are impressive, they’re struggling to keep up with future plans. It can take up to 20 hours to transmit a 250-megabit data payload directly to Earth. And it gets worse the further a spacecraft is from Earth.

NASA’s New Horizons mission is an instructive example. When it performed its flyby of Jupiter in 2007, it transmitted data back to Earth at about 38 kilobits per second (kbps.) That’s a little slower than old telephone dial-up modems from the past. The data rate dropped precipitously when it encountered its main objective, Pluto. The data rate plummeted to approximately 2,000 bits per second (bps) at that extreme distance. That’s like the telecommunications equivalent to Morse code.

To reach those speeds, New Horizons had to use both its antennae and transmit to NASA’s largest receiving dish here on Earth. It reached Pluto in July 2015, but it took until 2016 to transmit all of the data from the historic encounter. Imagine being a member of the New Horizons team waiting for critical, career-defining data.

DSOC’s infrared laser system will be a huge improvement. It’s similar to radio communications but uses tighter waves. This allows ground stations to receive more data, which is a critical problem with our rapidly-improving spacecraft. The DSOC on Psyche has only a 22 cm antennae, while the ground transmit antenna is 1 meter and the ground receiving antenna is 5 meters. At a distance of 0.4 AU, the uplink speed should reach 292 kbit/s, and the downlink speed should reach 100 Mbit/s.

DSOC does suffer from some drawbacks, though. For instance, downlink speeds are slower in the daytime.

Spacecraft instruments, and especially cameras, are generating more and more data. These speeds, and hopefully higher speeds in future DSOC systems, should be able to keep pace.

“Optical communication is a boon for scientists and researchers who always want more from their space missions, and will enable human exploration of deep space,” said Dr. Jason Mitchell, director of the Advanced Communications and Navigation Technologies Division within NASA’s Space Communications and Navigation (SCaN) program. “More data means more discoveries.”

This isn’t NASA’s first foray into DSOC. They’ve been working on it for years, and they’ve demonstrated it in Near-Earth Orbit and out as far as the Moon. But November’s test was the first deep space test. While DSOC promises faster communication, it requires extremely precise pointing, and the precision required increases with distance. The system works by transmitting a laser beacon from Earth to the spacecraft. That helps stabilize the line-of-sight between the two and helps Psyche aim its downlink laser accurately. Further tests at greater distances are the next step.

There’s also the latency problem. From the Moon, it takes about 2.5 seconds for a signal to reach Earth. In this test, Psyche was well beyond the Moon, and the signal took about 50 seconds to reach Earth. But while it’s at the asteroid, a signal from the Psyche spacecraft will need up to 20 minutes to reach Earth. That latency problem doesn’t go away just because the system is based on a near-infrared laser. Infrared light moves at the same speed as radio waves.

But even though there are future challenges yet to be overcome, the test was successful, and that’s the only result NASA can hope for.

“Achieving first light is a tremendous achievement. The ground systems successfully detected the deep space laser photons from DSOC’s flight transceiver aboard Psyche,” said Abi Biswas, project technologist for DSOC at JPL. “And we were also able to send some data, meaning we were able to exchange ‘bits of light’ from and to deep space.”

The future of space exploration is going to be more and more data-dependent. Imagine real-time (with a signal delay, of course) video from the surface of Mars, taken by high-resolution cameras on rovers. Imagine astronauts on the surface of Mars with real-time, Mars-hardened versions of Go-Pro cameras on their helmets. Imagine subscribing to the personal YouTube channel of a Mars astronaut.

Naturally, some people won’t believe what they’re seeing. But for those of us who follow along as space technology develops year by year, it will be another crowning moment.

I discovered a a Dyson Sphere in Google Sky map, Nov 2023, UFO Sighting News.

Date of discovery: Nov 17, 2023

Location of discovery: Space
Source coordinates: 5h08m06.84s 24°16'13.71"

 

I think I found a mega structure around a star on Google Sky Map. It's a Dyson sphere an alien built megastructure that encompasses a star and captures a large percentage of its solar power output. I have seen hundreds of stars, but never one like this. It's not a glitch, it's something much more significant. Imagine if you will, a structure built around a sun, and the sun is already 1000X bigger than earth, and that structure would be 5-10X that size. People would live within in and look up and see the sun, its energy controlled 100% and harnessed and used by the alien tech used to make the Dyson sphere. If you don't know what a Dyson Sphere is, just take a look at the Star Trek scene below as Captain Picard describes it to us.

What Exactly Happened On SpaceX's Second Starship Launch Attempt?

After 212 days of repairs, upgrades, and iteration, SpaceX just attempted the second integrated test flight of the Starship launch vehicle, and the improvements were obvious. The last flight was on April 20th earlier this year and ended with a bang after a few issues with the launch pad, engines, internal fires, etc. This time around, we saw a very different result from engine ignition all the way to an eventual explosion.

With this test complete, SpaceX now has a lot of work ahead of them as they find out exactly what went wrong, and launch the next Starship prototype. Here I will go more in-depth into what happened on this second flight test, where the issues arose, what to expect in the near future, and more.
