UFO Disclosure: Unveiling the Mysteries with Dr. Steven Greer
UFO Disclosure: Unveiling the Mysteries with Dr. Steven Greer
In the enigmatic and ever-evolving realm of Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs), few names are as synonymous with the quest for truth as Dr. Steven Greer. A vanguard in the disclosure movement, Dr. Greer’s work casts a revealing light on the shadowy world of UFO sightings and the complex debate surrounding extraterrestrial life. His endeavors navigate through layers of speculation and government secrecy, aiming to expose a reality that could redefine our understanding of the universe and our place within it.
The Gravity of Discovery
Central to Dr. Greer’s narrative is the astonishing claim that, as early as 1954, humanity had already achieved “gravity control”—a technological leap that could have revolutionized transportation, rendering conventional highways obsolete. This revelation not only challenges our current understanding of physics but also raises profound questions about the direction of human development. Why, after such a groundbreaking discovery, did society continue to develop along a path dependent on fossil fuels and terrestrial infrastructure? The answer, according to Dr. Greer, lies in the deliberate concealment of these technologies by vested interests.
The Cost of Secrecy
Dr. Greer argues that the suppression of advanced, non-polluting energy technologies has had far-reaching consequences, from the perpetuation of environmental degradation to the entrenchment of economic disparities. By keeping these innovations hidden, those in power have maintained a status quo that benefits the few at the expense of the many. The potential for clean, free energy—drawn from the so-called Zero Point Energy field—promises a future where pollution and poverty are relics of the past. However, the path to such a future is obstructed by the immense influence of the global energy sector and the political and financial might it wields.
Psychological Warfare and the Manipulation of Perception
Another facet of Dr. Greer’s discourse is the psychological impact of harboring such monumental secrets. He introduces the concept of “disclosure PTSD,” highlighting the toll that managing such knowledge can take on individuals. Furthermore, Dr. Greer delves into the use of staged alien abductions and other forms of psychological manipulation aimed at shaping public perception of extraterrestrial life. According to him, these orchestrated events serve not only to distract but also to sow fear, thereby justifying continued secrecy and the consolidation of power.
A Vision for the Future
Despite the challenges, Dr. Greer remains optimistic about the potential for disclosure to transform society. He envisions a world where humanity is united not only by the shared knowledge of extraterrestrial life but also by the collective benefits of the technologies that have been withheld from us. Such a future would be characterized by environmental sustainability, economic equity, and a profound expansion of human potential.
Navigating the Path to Disclosure
Dr. Greer’s commitment to uncovering the truth is evidenced by his efforts to brief government officials and share classified information with the public. However, the journey toward full disclosure is fraught with skepticism and disbelief. The challenge lies not only in presenting the evidence but also in overcoming the pervasive influence of those who benefit from maintaining the status quo.
Dr. Steven Greer’s work in the field of UFO disclosure invites us to question the narratives that have been constructed around extraterrestrial life and advanced technologies. By pushing for transparency and challenging the systems of power that thrive on secrecy, Dr. Greer’s endeavors offer a glimpse into a future where humanity embraces its full potential. The truth behind the shadows may hold the key to a new era of human development—one marked by unity, sustainability, and a deeper connection to the cosmos.
The US government has yet to unravel the mysterious sightings of UFOs soaring through our skies, but a Harvard professor believes the answer may sit 300 feet below the surface.
Avi Loeb, known for his efforts to prove we are not alone, has claimed that extraterrestrial visitors are travelling through hidden dimensions created by researchers at the CERN particle accelerator are seeking.
The accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), blasts particles are nearly the speed of light to recreate conditions of the Big Bang, with hopes of uncovering hidden dimensions that will reveal how our universe formed.
Speaking in a new documentary, Loeb said that alien civilizations may have been developing dimension-hopping technology for billions of years.
The physicist also noted that extraterrestrials are using theoretical quantum gravity engineering to travel through 'curled' dimensions that humans can only detect in particle accelerators such as CERN.

Avi Loeb made the claims in a new documentary, saying that extraterrestrials are using theoretical quantum gravity engineering to travel through 'curled' dimensions that humans can only detect in particle accelerators such as CERN
The Harvard scientist said in the documentary 'The Paranormal UFO Connection' that if alien technology is able to reach our doorstep, we would be awe-struck because it would represent something we don't possess.
'Just like a cave dweller coming to a city like London or Europe, and seeing all the technological gadgets there,' said Loeb.
'There will be a sense of religious awe, and we wouldn't understand it, especially if we are dealing with the effects of quantum gravity that we have any clue about.'
Loeb said that travelling through extra-spatial dimensions would mean the chance of collisions would be 'much smaller.'
'Quantum mechanics was discovered exactly a century ago. And all the most sophisticated technologies we currently employ, such as the Internet, artificial intelligence, and so forth, rely on our understanding of quantum mechanics,' Loeb explained.
'But the process of learning is incomplete - there are several major puzzles in modern physics.'
'Within the mainstream of theoretical physics for the past decades, the prevailing paradigm is that it is possible to unify quantum mechanics and gravity unless you work with extra-spatial dimensions.
'We see only three of them in our daily life. But the idea is that the others are curled. And we can't really detect them unless we shoot particles that have exceptionally high energies that will probe these tiny scales.
'Of course, if there are extra dimensions, then the reality that we are familiar with extends into them. And then one can imagine life in more than three spatial dimensions. It will be far more diverse and interesting.'
Last year Loeb set off for Papua New Guinea on a $1.5m ocean expedition to find what he believes might be a piece of alien technology, which crashed into the sea in 2014.

His expedition found metal 'spherules' on the sea bed, which Loeb claims might be 'techno signatures' of an alien civilization.
The Israeli astronomer and his research partner Amir Siraj concluded in 2019 that an object from outside our solar system had hit Earth in 2014.
The Papua New Guinea object travelled towards Earth at more than 30 miles per second, a speed so high it suggests it originated outside our solar system.
Loeb also argues in the film that world governments should divert the $2 trillion a year he claims is spent on military budgets to the search for alien life.

Speaking to DailyMail.com, Lee said: ' I have a science degree so I'm pretty rational. I was really keen to see what Avi's take on this would be. He's one of the few serious scientists in the world taking an interest in this subject.
'Our chat was very enlightening: he does think that advanced civilizations elsewhere in the universe may be able to use other spatial dimensions in order to travel easily through the universe.
'Particularly with the advances happening at CERN in regards to proving the existence of other dimensions then it makes logical sense for a far more sophisticated civilization to have developed the technology to utilise these.'
'The Paranormal UFO Connection' is on Tubi TV in the U.S. and available via YouTube worldwide.
The solar eclipse may have been overshadowed in Texas by a UFO soaring through the skies over Arlington.
Footage captured a darkened sky as the moon traveled in front of the sun, but also featured the shadow of a a long, narrow object shooting through the clouds.
However, many other users came forward with what could be a more reasonable explanation - it was the shadow of a high-altitude plane.
The solar eclipse may have been overshadowed in Texas by a UFO soaring through the skies over Arlington
Texas was deemed the 'hotspot' on the solar eclipse path of totality that started in The Lone Star State and extended to Maine.
Hundreds of thousands of people flocked to Texas because the eclipse was predicted to be visible for three minutes and 51 seconds.
And many of these visitors have shared pictures and footage of the celestial event - with one capturing something that some claimed was out of this world.
The footage shows glowing clouds hanging in a darkened sky when the object appeared to be swimming by.
‘What is that,’ several people can be heard saying, then ‘aliens’ could be heard loudly.
‘Something is flying through the air,’ another spectator can be heard.

‘What is that,’ several people can be heard saying, then ‘ aliens ’ could be heard loudly. ‘Something is flying through the air,’ another spectator can be heard
But solar eclipse spectators spotted another plane flying across the event in McKinney, which is about 50 miles from Arlington
The surrounding crowd appeared baffled by what they had witnessed - and so did many social media users.
The object appeared to fly back and forth in the area of the sky where the sun and moon had met.
Comments on the video shared on X suspected the object was a helicopter due to how fast it appeared.
‘It’s literally a helicopter shadow coming through the clouds,’ one user posted. ‘Seen this several times with airplanes.’
But an Arizona man who claimed to live near Luke Air Force Base said ‘helicopters don’t move that fast.’
Others suggested that the shadow was from a plane.
‘I thought aircraft shadow when I saw it. Not that it couldn't be a UFO shadow, but probably not anything that fun,’ another user shared.
One X user posted that it was 'clearly a plane,' citing the outline of the engines were visible in the video.
Another shared: 'Shadow on the clouds from an higher altitude airplane. I have seen this many times as an aviation spotter.'
They continued to explain that the shadow disappears when the plane moves into part of the sky without clouds - and that the shadow appeared similar in size to the craft.
One X user noted that the ‘video [was] created for entertainment clicks.’
But solar eclipse spectators spotted another plane flying across the event in McKinney, which is aout 50 miles from Arlington.
NASA's lunar orbitwas investigating the moon when it captured a surf board-shaped UFO whizz by the surface.
Photos taken by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) showed a long, narrow, and apparently flat object in a few shots.
While some had speculated the sighting was nothing more than a digital artifact, others were sure NASA had captured aliens visiting close to our world.
But the American space agency later revealed LRO captured Korea's lunar orbiter, Danuri as it soared just a few miles away.
This image shows Danuri in the white box. The large bowl-shaped crater visible in the upper left is 7.5 miles wide.
Danuri streaked by the LRO, about 3 miles closer to the moon than the NASA spacecraft. Its appearance is due to its speed.
The Korea Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter, nicknamed Danuri – meaning 'enjoy the moon' – was fired into space atop a Falcon 9 booster.
The LRO has been orbiting Earth's moon and snapping photos since 2009, when it was NASA's first moon mission in a decade.
And it turns out the craft is on a nearly parallel orbit with Danuri, which was launched in 2022 by the Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI).
The relative speed of the two objects to one another is a whopping 7,200 miles per hour, so the LRO operations team had to have lightning quick timing to capture it on camera.
In the end, Danuri appeared 10 times longer than it really is, hence its surfboard appearance.
Even though the LRO's camera exposure time was only 0.338 milliseconds, Danuri's immense speed meant that it still only showed up as a blur, stretched beyond recognition.
Paul Byrne, a professor of planetary science at Washington University in St Louise, shared a few of LRO's images on X.
'To be clear, the Danuri orbiter is not a weirdly thin load of pixels—it's a fairly normal-looking orbiter,' Byrne posted.
'But the terrific speeds involved mean that it's smeared on the LRO's camera detector.'
Danuri was traveling just five miles below LRO last week when the images were taken.
Danuri is actually a typical uncrewed spacecraft shape: a box in the middle with two solar panels on either side.
Both Danuri and the LRO are designed to take photos of the moon, capturing images of regions of the moon that are permanently shadowed.
Danuri snapped this image of the LRO in April 2023 as the Korean spacecraft passed 11 miles above the NASA one.
For their second encounter, the LRO was only about 2.5 miles above Danuri. Once again, though, the photo it captured was stretched out because of their relative speeds.
In the new set of photos, Danuri is all but unrecognizable.
Not only were both spacecrafts traveling at thousands of miles an hour, but they were going in opposite directions from each other - adding to the blur effect.
And while the LRO is set to orbit the moon indefinitely, Danuri's passes are meant to set the stage for an eventual landing mission on the moon's surface.
Er bevindt zich meer plastic op Antarctica dan tot nu toe gedacht. Een groot deel van de deeltjes is zo klein dat ze bij eerder onderzoek niet opgemerkt werden, blijkt uit een Zwitsers onderzoek.
Volgens de Universiteit van Bazel werd er bij eerder onderzoek gebruikgemaakt van een net met mazen van ongeveer 300 micrometer klein, ongeveer een derde van een milimeter. De kleinste deeltjes werden zo niet opgevist.
Bij nieuwe staalnames in de Weddelzee, op Antarctica, stelden de onderzoekers vast dat 98,33 procent van de plastic deeltjes kleiner was dan 300 micrometer. Het internationale onderzoeksteam, onder leiding van de Universiteit van Bazel, publiceerde de data in het tijdschrift Science of the Total Environment.
In plaats van een net maakten de wetenschappers gebruik van een waterpomp, waarmee ze zeewater naar een reservoir overpompten. Ze analyseerden het water met infraroodspectroscopie, waarbij stoffen geanalyseerd worden door gebruik te maken van het infrarode deel van het elektromagnetische spectrum. Ze vonden zo deeltjes die tot 11 micrometer klein waren, een fractie van de dikte van een mensenhaar.
"Er is ongerustheid dat die kleinere en vaker voorkomende deeltjes microplastics een groter risico vormen voor waterorganismes", schrijven de auteurs in de studie. Die levende organismes, die aangepast zijn aan extreme levensomstandigheden, zijn bijzonder kwetsbaar voor vervuiling.
Ook is onduidelijk hoe de microplastics tot in de geïsoleerde Weddelzee zijn geraakt, en of ze er ooit nog weg kunnen. Mogelijke bronnen zijn de scheepvaart in de regio, voor toerisme, visvangst of onderzoek, en de wetenschappelijke onderzoekstations. Maar de microplastics kunnen ook vanuit andere regio's op Antarctica belanden via oceaanstromingen.
Clara Leistenschneider, de hoofdauteur van de studie, toont zich optimistisch in het persbericht van de Universiteit van Bazel. Er wordt veel werk verricht om het probleem beter te begrijpen en om ideeën te ontwikkelen om plasticvervuiling te verminderen, zegt ze.

Art Bell: Unveiling the Mystery of Alien and Military Encounters with Jim Sparks
Art Bell: Unveiling the Mystery of Alien and Military Encounters with Jim Sparks
In a remarkable broadcast from February 25, 2007, Art Bell, the late night radio icon known for exploring the unexplained, engaged in a profound conversation with Jim Sparks, a man who claims to have experienced repeated alien abductions and interactions with the military in relation to extraterrestrial beings. This discussion not only captivated the imagination of the audience but also offered a unique insight into the complex relationship between humans, aliens, and military operations surrounding extraterrestrial encounters.
Jim Sparks’ journey into the world of the unknown began in the mid-1980s when he started experiencing what he initially thought were vivid dreams of being escorted from his bed to a mysterious location by unknown entities. These occurrences, which Sparks later recognized as alien abductions, transformed from dream-like visions into conscious encounters, marking the beginning of a series of profound experiences that would change his understanding of reality.
Throughout his numerous abductions, Sparks described being subjected to a variety of procedures, including teaching sessions with aliens who communicated through a unique symbol-based language designed to facilitate telepathic communication. This method, as explained by Sparks, was not only about transferring information but also about shaping human consciousness towards a higher level of understanding and capability.
Art Bell
The complexity of Sparks’ encounters extends beyond interactions with extraterrestrial beings to involve the military. He recounted instances of being taken to underground facilities and witnessing the cooperation between military personnel and aliens. This collaboration hinted at a secretive, possibly global, effort to understand and harness extraterrestrial technology and knowledge, raising questions about the extent and objectives of such initiatives.
One of the most intriguing aspects of Sparks’ narrative is his transformation from a skeptic to a reluctant participant and, eventually, to an advocate for the messages he received from his alien abductors. These messages often centered on environmental concerns, suggesting a deep connection between the extraterrestrials’ interests in Earth and their interventions in human affairs. According to Sparks, these alien beings possess technologies capable of resolving some of the planet’s most pressing issues, such as energy production and environmental degradation, but are hindered by human reluctance and geopolitical complexities.
The dialogue between Art Bell and Jim Sparks opens up a Pandora’s box of questions about the nature of our universe, the existence of other intelligent life forms, and their interactions with humanity. It challenges the conventional understanding of reality and invites us to reconsider our place in the cosmos. Whether one views Sparks’ accounts as factual, speculative, or somewhere in between, the themes of his experiences touch on fundamental human concerns about knowledge, power, and the future of our planet.
In essence, the conversation between Art Bell and Jim Sparks serves as a catalyst for broader discussions about the unknown and the unseen forces that may shape our destiny. It encourages us to ponder the possibilities of what lies beyond the familiar confines of our understanding and to remain open to the mysteries that await unraveling.
Een spectaculaire show in de hemel Miljoenen Noord-Amerikanen, van Mexico tot de Verenigde Staten en Canada, kregen op 8 april een spectaculaire show te zien: een totale zonsverduistering. Afgebeeld:De evolutie van de totale zonsverduistering aan het strand in Mazatlan, Mexico. De foto is gemaakt met meerdere belichtingen en digitale bewerking.
Voor sommigen dé kans van hun leven Een totale zonsverduistering vindt plaats als de maan tussen de aarde en de zon in staat, waardoor het zicht op de zon vanaf een klein deel van de aarde wordt geblokkeerd. Klik verder om de spectaculairste foto's van deze gebeurtenis te bekijken.
Op de foto: stellen bekijken de zonsverduistering tijdens een massabruiloft op het festival 'Total Eclipse of the Heart' in Russellville, Arkansas.
Tussen de wolken door Een angstaanjagend beeld uit Niagara Falls in Canada. De lokale bevolking was bang dat ze de zonsverduistering niet zouden kunnen zien door de bewolking, maar gelukkig gebeurde dat niet. In plaats daarvan waren griezelige, buitenaardse beelden het resultaat, zoals je hier ziet.
De kunst van het universum Zicht op de totale zonsverduistering vanuit de haven van Mazatlan in Mexico. Dit was een van de weinige steden ter wereld waar de eclips met 100% zicht kon worden waargenomen.
Iconische foto uit New York City New Yorkers kregen alleen een gedeeltelijke zonsverduistering te zien, maar toch konden ze daarvan mooie plaatjes schieten, zoals deze.
Spectaculair Martin, Ohio was een van de steden in het "pad van de totaliteit" - de route waarlangs je de zon compleet kon zien verdwijnen. Hier zien we de maan voor de zon langs gaan.

Vlucht met uitzicht Een vliegtuig kruist de route van een gedeeltelijke zonsverduistering, gezien vanuit Glen Rock, New Jersey. Volgens The Washington Post bood Delta Airlines een speciale vlucht aan zodat passagiers de zonsverduistering vanuit de lucht konden zien. Velen zeggen echter dat het uitzicht niet het beste was.
Fort Erie, Canada Fort Erie, gelegen in de provincie Ontario, lag in het pad van de totaliteit. Inwoners hadden echter te maken met veel bewolking. Ook al hadden ze misschien niet het meest heldere uitzicht, het was nog steeds indrukwekkend.
Het beeld waar mensen honderden kilometers voor hebben gereisd Over heel Noord-Amerika reisden mensen honderden kilometers om in het pad van de totaliteit te zijn en adembenemende beelden zoals deze in Ohio te zien.
Syracuse, New York Of mensen nu een totale of gedeeltelijke zonsverduistering konden zien, het was een unieke kans. Volgens NASA is de volgende totale zonsverduistering pas in 2044 in Noord-Amerika te zien. Voor Europa is die datum 12 augustus 2026 (van Groenland tot Spanje) en kunnen we een gedeeltelijke zonsverduistering in België en Nederland verwachten op 29 maart 2025.
Scientists have discovered a simple hack in the construction of so-called blue energy generators that dramatically increases the power they collect from the motion of waves.
Previous generations of blue energy generators have suffered from low efficiency, limiting their practical uses. This latest design hack, which simply repositions the electrode in the wave generator, hopes to change that equation, opening up numerous potential applications for this type of kinetic energy generation.
As the world attempts to meet increasing energy demands while also balancing the need for more sustainable power generation options, technologies like solar and wind power that tap into the environment’s natural energy production potential have continued to gain traction. Still, those power harvesting methods have limitations, making them unlikely to completely meet rising demands.
One increasingly popular approach involves collecting energy generated by friction using a technology known as a triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG). For example, a team of researchers created a prototype ‘rain panel’ equipped with a series of TENGs that collect energy from falling rain. Unfortunately, that invention has yet to make its way to everyday consumers.
Now, scientists say they have taken a 20th-century idea of capturing the energy of ocean waves and added a simple engineering hack that increases their energy output high enough that they could be used for a number of practical power harvesting applications.
Known as a liquid-solid TENG, the tube-shaped device is filled with water and placed on the surface of the ocean. When the waves move, the water inside sloshes back and forth. That motion causes friction on an electrode inside the tube, which in turn creates usable electrical energy that can be collected.
The team proposed improving the device by relocating the TENG from the center of the tube, where it is traditionally placed, to the extreme end. The hope was that the increased kinetic energy from the additional distance traveled by the liquid inside the tube would increase the energy generated by the TENG.
Researchers harvest more energy from waves by moving a liquid-solid nanogenerator’s electrode to the end of the tube where the water crashes. CREDIT: Adapted from ACS Energy Letters 2024, DOI: 10/1021.acsenergylett.4c00072
To test their hypothesis, Guozhang Dai, Kai Yin, Junliang Yan, and colleagues decided to construct two of their own liquid-solid TENGS. Each was 16 inches in length and then fitted with a copper foil electrode. The first had its electrode placed in the center location like traditional TENGs, while the second had the electrode placed at the end.
Next, the tubes were filled one-quarter of the way with water and then sealed at the ends. To measure their energy output, each TENG had a wire connected to the electrode and then fed to an external circuit.
Each of the two TENGs was placed on a tabletop rocker device that moved back and forth to simulate the motion of ocean waves. During this process, the electrical output of each generator was monitored externally. As hoped, the simple hack resulted in a dramatic increase in power.
As the press release announcing the blue energy generator hack explains, “Compared to the conventional design, the researchers found that the optimized design increased the device’s conversion of mechanical energy to electrical current 2.4 times.”
The paper outlining the blue energy generator’s improvements, which is published in the journal ACS Energy Letters, goes into more detail, explaining that “through the space volume effect, the open-circuit voltage, short-circuit current, and transfer charge of (TENG) can be improved by 3.5 times, 2.3 times, and 2 times, respectively.”
To further demonstrate the improved output of their ‘hacked’ TENG, the researchers also connected it to a series of 35 LEDs and watched them all flash on and off as the fluid inside the generator sloshed back and forth. The researchers note that this demonstration not only shows its power generation capabilities but also one possible application.
“The (TENG) not only boasts high output performance for harvesting low-frequency and high-entropy motion energy, but its output displacement current can also serve as a compact signal generator for underwater wireless communication.”
The researchers did not provide a timeline or clear path for when we might see these types of improved wave power generators in commercial use. However, they did sound hopeful, noting that “these demonstrations lay the foundation for larger-scale blue-energy harvesting from ocean waves.”

George Adamski became famous in the 1950s with startling photos and videos of flying saucer and cigar-shaped spacecraft he began taking in the 1940s, which he claimed were piloted by human-looking extraterrestrial visitors. He learned from face-to-face contact experiences that the extraterrestrials had secretly embedded themselves in human society to help humanity learn about galactic life. Multiple witnesses saw one of Adamski’s face-to-face meetings in 1952 and provided compelling evidence of what had happened.
Captain Glenn Steckling, a retired civilian pilot who flew for 30 years with a major airline, was only 4 years old when his father, Fred, befriended Adamski in 1963 and became a close aide in the latter’s remaining two years of life. During his subsequent experiences with Adamski, and later in his father’s dissemination of Adamski’s material, Glenn Steckling met with several of the extraterrestrials secretly living among us.
In his first Exopolitics Today interview, Glenn Steckling discusses the Adamski case, the incredible photos and videos taken by Adamski, his father’s relationship with Adamski, and his directorship of the George Adamski Foundation after his father’s passing. Steckling asserts that humanity needs to learn to ethically mature and solve its own problems before it can expect human-looking extraterrestrials to fully reveal themselves. He is very skeptical of official disclosure efforts by government entities and of the existence of non-human extraterrestrials that he believes are a product of fear-based disinformation.
In 1973, before the presidential elections, yet to become President, Jimmy Carter filed a report with the International UFO Bureau claiming he had seen a UFO in October 1969. Along with other witnesses, Carter saw a bright UFO that changed colors and moved towards and away from the Earth before disappearing. He was quite vocal about his beliefs on UFOs and promised to public all available information about UFOs if he became president.
“He described waiting outside for a Lion’s Club Meeting in Leary, Georgia, to begin, at about 7:30 p.m., when he spotted what he called ‘the darndest thing I’ve ever seen’ in the sky.” Along with 10 to 12 other witnesses, Carter observed a bright object in the sky, which was about the size of the moon.

“We all saw it. And then the light, it got closer and closer to us. And then it stopped, I don’t know how far away, but it stopped beyond the pine trees. And all of a sudden it changed color to blue, and then it changed to red, then back to white,” Carter told GQ in 2005. The object reportedly hovered about 30 degrees above the horizon, moved towards and away from the Earth, and eventually disappeared into the distance. Carter’s experience led him to make a vow to never again ridicule individuals who claimed to have seen a UFO.
“One thing’s for sure, I’ll never make fun of people who say they’ve seen unidentified objects in the sky. If I become President, I’ll make every piece of information this country has about UFO sightings available to the public and the scientists,” Carter said.
As for the object that Carter saw, it has since been classified as “a high altitude barium release cloud launched from Eglen AFB,” which sounds legit. However, after winning the presidency, Carter backed away from this promise, citing concerns about national security and defense implications. His experience with a UFO is just one of many reported sightings that have fueled conspiracy about extraterrestrial life and government cover-ups.
President Carter’s Disturbing Briefing on UFOs and Religion
Former NASA researcher Ed Harris claimed that serious researchers on the subject believe the story of former President Jimmy Carter crying after being briefed about classified UFO information to be true. According to the story corroborated by multiple witnesses, U.S. presidents are given only a brief overview of the subject by the CIA, and presidential curiosity is not considered a sufficient need to know.
After being repeatedly stonewalled, Carter was given “the talk,” which reportedly left him deeply sobbing and visibly disturbed for weeks. He was told that major religions, including Christianity, were created by extraterrestrials to prevent humans from destroying themselves while they ran experiments on us, and that they made us. Carter, a deeply religious man who had witnessed a UFO with six other people, realized that releasing such information could cause tremendous economic and social upheaval.
Below you can read Ed Harris’ statement on the subject that he wrote on Quora:
Yes, the incident of Jimmy Carter crying after being briefed about classified information regarding UFO’s is largely believed to be true by the serious researchers on the subject. As a forewarning, the following information is very unsettling and will explain why Carter never “kept his promise” of revealing classified UFO information to the public.
According to the story that was corroborated by more than one witness, U.S. presidents are only given a cursory overview of the subject. Apparently, the CIA runs the program, only provide information to the President on a need to know basis, and do not consider presidential curiosity as sufficient need to know. This was implemented after Kennedy, and all presidents after him have been given only summary briefings (some presidents for unknown reasons were given more than others).
Okay on to your question. President Carter is a deeply religious man who had also witnessed a UFO with 6 other people. Everyone thought that he would be the one to finally release UFO info to the public but as the story goes, he was repeatedly stonewalled. Eventually, the CIA had “the talk” with him, and afterward it was reported that he sunk his head in his hands and not only began to deeply sob, but was visibly disturbed for some weeks afterward.
What was he told and shown?
He was told that the major religions including Christianity were programs created by extraterrestrials to prevent us from destroying ourselves while they ran their experiments on us – and that they made us. At this moment it became clear to Carter that such information could cause tremendous economic and social upheaval. I should add that I am not only a Christian but a clergyman, so I am in no way attempting to promote atheism here. In fact, how God fits into this might be an interesting separate post. Nevertheless, these are the facts as I know them to be.
Author and world’s leading UFO researcher Richard Dolan also writes about this incident in his book “UFOs and the National Security State: The Cover-Up Exposed.” According to his book, there are claims that President Carter was given a UFO briefing at the White House on June 14, 1977, which he was then bound to secrecy about.
The briefing was supposedly given by a lone MJ-12 briefing officer and several independent sources. The leaked “Executive Briefing: Project Aquarius” document gives the standard account of multiple retrievals of alien technology. While there is no hard evidence to support the claims of the briefing, a presidential aide, who was “very, very close to Carter,” witnessed President sobbing after a UFO-related briefing in the Oval Office.
Carter Administration & Project Blue Book
Daniel Sheehan, a Harvard-educated Constitutional Trial Lawyer and Appellate Attorney has worked on many high-profile cases in his career. In 1977, he was approached by his friend Marcia Smith, who informed him that President Carter had demanded that the CIA provided classified information about unidentified flying objects to him, but George H. Bush, who was the CIA director at the time, refused to give this information to the president.
Sheehan tried to obtain information on the UFO phenomena and extraterrestrials from the Vatican Library but was unsuccessful. However, with Carter’s help, he managed to get access to the classified portions of the Air Force’s Project Blue Book for a few hours in May 1977, where he claimed to have discovered classified documents and photographs of a crashed UFO being investigated by Air Force personnel.
“There were these photographs of unmistakable — of a UFO sitting on the ground. It had crashed,” Sheehan said. “Apparently, it had hit into this field and had dug up, kind of plowed this kind of trough through this field,” he paused for a second.
“It was wedged into the side of this bank,” he said after taking a deep breath. “There was snow all around the picture. The vehicle was wedged into the side of this mud-like embankment — kind of up at an angle. There was Air Force personnel. As I cranked the little handle and looked at additional photos, these Air Force people were taking pictures.” (Click here to read the full article)
When Mr. Sheehan left the room, the guard asked to see his yellow legal pad and flipped through the pages, missing the alien hieroglyphs Sheehan had copied on the back of the pad. Sheehan offered to share this information with the religious establishment; they told him they were not interested.

Defence drops 10-page UFO dossier
Defence drops 10-page UFO dossier
The key message is Defence has no particular interest in the subject. (Image: Google)
The Department of Defence has released 10 pages of documents about UFOs, in response to a freedom of information request.
The dossier includes 17 Defence communications about UFOs and unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) created between July and October 2023.
The key message is Defence has no particular interest in the subject. One document clarified Defence stopped actively monitoring for UFOs/UAPs in 1996.
“There was no scientific or other compelling reason to continue to devote resources to the recording and investigation of unidentified aerial phenomena,” it said.
“Defence does not have a policy on the reporting of unidentified aerial phenomena by either members of the public or defence members.
“Defence safety of flight incidents, including those potentially posed by UAPs are handled by the Defence Aviation Authority, with civilian flight incidents the purview of the Civil Aviation Authority.”
Interest in UFOs has seen a surge in legitimacy since the United States Congress made annual national intelligence reports on UAPs mandatory. In the January 2023 report, they said sightings had increased significantly, noting this could be a deliberate campaign to destigmatise the subject.
In its 2021 preliminary report, a spokesperson for the US director of national security wrote while UAPs represented a possible national security threat, there was no compelling evidence to suggest they were extra-terrestrial spacecraft.
However, they noted there were reasons airforce personnel may not report UAPs.
“In a limited number of incidents, UAP reportedly appeared to exhibit unusual flight characteristics. These observations could be the result of sensor errors, spoofing, or observer misperception and require additional rigorous analysis,” they said.
“Narratives from aviators in the operational community and analysts from the military and IC describe disparagement associated with observing UAP, reporting it, or attempting to discuss it with colleagues.
“Although the effects of these stigmas have lessened as senior members of the scientific, policy, military, and intelligence communities engage on the topic seriously in public, reputational risk may keep many observers silent, complicating scientific pursuit of the topic.”
Federal parliament’s leading UFO enthusiast appears to be Peter Whish-Wilson, who has asked Defence questions on the subject on five separate occasions since 2021.
A known enthusiast for the subject, he has been the subject of mockery from Labor senators for taking the subject seriously. In the time since Whish-Wilson’s questions were answered by Defence, one key statement has been found to be a lie.
After repeatedly telling the Greens senator they had not spoken to their United States counterparts about UAPs, Defence admitted it had sent an attache to discuss the matter.
They have categorically refused to discuss the matter further.
De geheimen rond de Bermudadriehoek De wateren rond Bermuda, dat Brits grondgebied is, hebben van meer dan 1.000 mensen het leven geëist. Veel schepen en vliegtuigen zijn op onverklaarbare wijze verdwenen in het gebied dat ligt tussen Bermuda en Miami. Door veel piloten zijn verhalen verteld over kompassen die niet meer werkten.
Mysterieuze verdwijningen en bizarre verhalen hebben geleid tot talloze complottheorieën en er heerst een akelig gevoel omtrent de Bermudadriehoek. Bekijk deze galerij om enkele van de meest intrigerende onverklaarde mysteries rond het eiland en zijn wateren te ontdekken.
George Somers Hij vertrok vanuit Plymouth in Engeland met een vloot van zeven schepen. Zijn vlaggenschip, de Sea Venture, bracht kolonisten, voedsel en goederen met zich mee
George Somers De vloot kwam in een zware storm terecht en de schepen werden van elkaar gescheiden. Na een aantal dagen begon de Sea Venture vol met water te lopen en in een poging van wanhoop voer de uitgeputte kapitein het schip naar de riffen van wat Bermuda bleek te zijn.
George Somers Gelukkig hebben alle 150 passagiers die aan boord waren het overleefd. Ze verbleven tien maanden op het eiland en stichtten de eerste nederzetting van Bermuda.
Bermuda Volgens het toerismebureau Bermuda Attractions liggen er meer dan 300 scheepswrakken op de zeebodem rond het eiland. Waarom er zoveel schepen zijn gezonken in de wateren rond Bermuda blijft een raadsel.
Flight 19 In een groep van vijf vliegtuigen waren er in totaal veertien man aan boord, waaronder de ervaren luitenant Charles C. Taylor. Ze verdwenen allemaal spoorloos. Naar verluidt zei een van de piloten via de radio: "beide kompassen werken niet meer en ik probeer Fort Lauderdale in Florida te vinden."
Flight 19 Een opsporingsteam doorzocht in vijf dagen ruim 300.000 vierkante kilometer grondgebied. Helaas zijn er nooit overblijfselen van Flight 19 gevonden. Een boot met een zoekteam van dertien mensen verdween ook toen het op zoek was naar de vliegtuigen
Christoffel Columbus Naar verluidt schreef hij in een van zijn memoires dat hij een vuurvlam in de zee zag slaan en dat er een paar dagen later in de verte een vreemd licht verscheen.
Mary Celeste Volgens Bermuda Attractions werd het schip drijvend in de Atlantische Oceaan aangetroffen terwijl er niemand aan boord was. Er bestaan complottheorieën rondom het mysterie van de Mary Celeste die gaan van ontvoeringen tot buitenaardse wezens, natuurrampen en zelfs paranormale activiteiten.
USS Scorpion De USS Scorpion was een kernonderzeeër van de Amerikaanse marine. Hij vertrok op 15 februari 1968 uit Norfolk, gelegen in de Amerikaanse staat Virginia, voor een operatie van drie maanden en had een 99-koppige bemanning.
USS Scorpion Volgens History Net, een Amerikaanse uitgever van tijdschriften die artikelen publiceren over onderwerpen uit de geschiedenis, werd er een zoekteam ingezet toen de onderzeeër niet terugkeerde naar zijn thuishaven. De 76,5 meter lange onderzeeër verdween spoorloos.
USS Scorpion Het wrak van de onderzeeër werd in de Atlantische Oceaan voor de kust van de Azoren gevonden, maar complotdenkers hebben het mysterie van de USS Scorpion in verband gebracht met de Bermudadriehoek.
Carroll A. Deering Volgens Bermuda Attractions was er een lichtschip in staat om via de radio met de Carroll A. Deering te communiceren. De kapitein van het lichtschip hoorde een bemanningslid zeggen dat ze hun ankers waren kwijtgeraakt en dat dit aan het hoofdkwartier doorgegeven moest worden, maar de Carroll A. Deering stopte niet en voer langs het lichtschip.
US Air Force KC-135 Stratotanker In 1963 kwamen naar verluidt twee KC-135-vliegtuigen van de Amerikaanse luchtmacht met elkaar in botsing en stortten ze neer in de Atlantische Oceaan. Ze werden echter gevonden op twee verschillende locaties die ruim 260 kilometer uit elkaar lagen.
De Ellen Austin De Ellen Austin was een schip dat regelmatig tussen Londen en New York door de Bermudadriehoek voer. Tijdens een van haar reizen in 1881 kwam de Ellen Austin een ander schip tegen waarop niemand aan boord was.
De Ellen Austin In een poging het verlaten schip te redden stuurde de kapitein van de Ellen Austin enkele van zijn bemanningsleden. Twee dagen lang zeilden de schepen zij aan zij totdat ze door een storm van elkaar werden gescheiden. Het verlaten schip en de nieuwe bemanning zijn nooit gevonden.
Niet opgelost en onverklaard Ondanks dat er ruim duizend mensen om het leven zijn gekomen, blijven de wateren rond Bermuda een van de drukst bevaren plekken ter wereld. Zou dit de illusie kunnen wekken dat er hier meer incidenten plaatsvinden of is er echt iets mysterieus aan de hand?
The Mysterious Night Sky Phenomenon Over Salento, Italy
The Mysterious Night Sky Phenomenon Over Salento, Italy
In the tranquil skies above Salento, Italy, a remarkable event occurred on the evening of January 9th, 2017, that left both locals and experts baffled. Luccio Margiota, an educator from the Music Academy of Salento, captured a perplexing aerial phenomenon that defied conventional explanations. The event added to Italy’s long history of mysterious sightings, intertwining with tales that span from ancient Roman lore to modern encounters.
A Shape-Shifting Enigma
As dusk fell over Salento, a glowing orb emerged, acting unlike any known aerial object. Witnesses observed it transforming shape, from a spherical form to an elongated, cigar-like figure, and eventually morphing into a circular, donut-like shape. This spectacle was not only about the transformation of shapes but also involved a captivating shift in colors, from a greenish hue back to white, before the object vanished into the night.
Historical Context and Eyewitness Accounts
Italy’s history is rich with tales of unexplained aerial phenomena, stretching back to Roman times when historians like Livy recorded sightings of phantom ships gleaming in the sky. The Renaissance period and beyond have also documented similar enigmatic occurrences, suggesting a continuity of these mysterious sightings through the ages. In Salento, the recent event mirrors these historical accounts, reinforcing the intrigue and speculation surrounding such phenomena.
Expert Analysis and Speculations
The event prompted analyses from various experts in an attempt to uncover a rational explanation. Meteorologists and astronomers were consulted, exploring potential atmospheric conditions or optical illusions that could account for the sighting. While some speculated that atmospheric phenomena like halos or sun dogs, which are caused by light refracting through ice crystals, might explain the sighting, this theory was quickly dismissed. The absence of a visible light source at the center of the phenomenon contradicted the characteristics of known atmospheric optics.
Marc D’Antonio, an astronomer and video effects designer, suggested that the maximum zoom of Margiota’s camera might have exaggerated distortions, potentially leading to misinterpretations of what was observed. He also pointed to possible lens artifacts from moisture or other substances as contributing factors to the unusual visual effects captured on video. However, even with these considerations, the origin of the light and its peculiar behavior remained unexplained.

Despite extensive analysis and speculation, the aerial phenomenon over Salento remains unclassified. The Italian government has not provided an official explanation, leaving the object unidentified and adding to the growing list of mysterious sightings worldwide. This event underscores the ongoing fascination with and debate over unidentified flying objects, challenging our understanding of the known and the unexplored.
As we gaze up at the night sky, events like the Salento sighting remind us of the vastness of the universe and the potential for mysteries that lie beyond our current grasp of science and nature. The pursuit of explanations for such phenomena continues, fueled by curiosity and the unending quest for knowledge.
De grootste mythes over het heelal Hoewel we meer van het heelal begrijpen dan ooit tevoren, zijn er nog steeds veel misvattingen over de ruimte, die grotendeels te danken zijn aan Hollywood. Sommige van deze misvattingen zijn eigenlijk aannemelijk en hebben velen van ons voor de gek gehouden. Denk je bijvoorbeeld dat Mercurius de heetste planeet in het zonnestelsel is omdat hij het dichtst bij onze zon staat? En zuigen zwarte gaten echt materie naar hun kern?
To find out the answers to these questions and more, check out the following gallery on the biggest myths about space. LEES VERDER.
De asteroïdengordel is heel gevaarlijk De asteroïdengordel ligt tussen Mars en Jupiter en bevat meer dan drieduizend kleine planeten en meer dan 750.000 afzonderlijke asteroïden. De grotere asteroïden botsen soms op elkaar, wat de mythe voedt dat het gevaarlijk is voor ruimtevaartuigen om zich er een weg doorheen te banen.
De asteroïdengordel is heel gevaarlijk Er is echter geen gevaar, omdat de afstand tussen asteroïden enorm is. Gemiddeld is er een afstand van ongeveer 970.000 km tussen de asteroïden, wat meer dan twee keer zo groot is als de afstand van de aarde tot de maan.
De zon staat in brand Elke seconde zet de zon 700 miljoen ton waterstof om in 695 miljoen ton helium. Er komt dan energie vrij in de vorm van gammastralen, die dan licht worden. De zon zendt dus licht en warmte uit, maar staat niet in brand, omdat er geen zuurstof aan te pas komt.
De maan heeft een donkere kant In tegenstelling tot wat vaak wordt gedacht, is de andere kant niet donker. Het krijgt dezelfde hoeveelheid zonlicht als de andere kant.
Sterren in constellaties staan dicht bij elkaar De sterren aan de nachthemel zijn verdeeld over 88 constellaties. Dit zijn herkenbare groeperingen die al duizenden jaren als richtlijn voor boeren en reizigers dienen.
Sterren in constellaties staan dicht bij elkaar Ondanks dat het lijkt alsof de sterren die de constellaties vormen dicht bij elkaar staan, zijn ze vaak tientallen of honderden lichtjaren van elkaar gescheiden.
Saturnus is de enige planeet in het zonnestelsel met ringen Wanneer de meeste mensen aan planeten met ringen denken, is er maar één die in hun gedachten opkomt. De gasreus Saturnus staat bekend om zijn zeven hoofdringen.
Saturnus is de enige planeet in het zonnestelsel met ringen Maar Saturnus is niet de enige. Jupiter, Uranus en Neptunus hebben ook allemaal hun eigen ringen. Niemand wist echter zeker dat ze bestonden totdat het ruimteschip Voyager in de jaren zeventig en tachtig heel dichtbij kwam.
Zwarte gaten creëren een vacuüm Zwarte gaten zijn eigenlijk meer een soort vliegenvangers dan vacuüms. Ze zijn vrij inactief totdat een ster te dichtbij komt. Dan worden ze actief en verscheuren ze lagen gas en versnipperen ze de bestaande atomen.
Zwarte gaten creëren een vacuüm In werkelijkheid lopen objecten die genoeg afstand houden en met een hoge snelheid passeren geen gevaar om in het centrum van een zwart gat gezogen te worden. Als de zon bijvoorbeeld zou worden vervangen door een zwart gat, zou de aarde gewoon blijven draaien.
De zon is geel Eigenlijk is deze gele kleur een illusie. De zon produceert alle golflengtes van zichtbaar licht en daarom is haar echte kleur wit. Maar als het zonlicht door de atmosfeer reist, verandert het van kleur.
De zon is geel De atmosferische gassen van de aarde buigen het licht af door een effect dat Rayleighverstrooiing heet en waardoor de lucht blauw lijkt.
De schaduw van de aarde veroorzaakt de maanfasen Maanfasen zijn eigenlijk het resultaat van de opkomst en ondergang van de zon boven de zichtbare kant van de maan terwijl deze om de aarde draait.
De schaduw van de aarde veroorzaakt de maanfasen Terwijl de maan om de aarde draait, worden verschillende delen ervan verlicht door de zon. Het draait dus allemaal om de positie van de zon, de maan en de aarde.
Een lichtjaar is een tijdmaat Een lichtjaar is eigenlijk een afstandsmaat. NASA omschrijft een lichtjaar als "de totale afstand die een lichtstraal, die in een rechte lijn beweegt, in één jaar aflegt".
Een lichtjaar is een tijdmaat Volgens de relativiteitstheorie van Albert Einstein is een lichtjaar de snelste snelheid in het heelal, met ongeveer 300.000 kilometer per seconde.
Sterren twinkelen Wanneer licht naar de aarde reist, passeert het gasmoleculen (sterren) waar onze atmosfeer uit bestaat. De sterren wervelen vanwege turbulentie in de atmosfeer. Hierdoor wordt een deel van het licht afgebogen, waardoor het lijkt alsof het licht verschuift en twinkelt.
Mercurius is de heetste planeet in het zonnestelsel Veel mensen geloven deze misvatting omdat Mercurius de planeet is die het dichtst bij de zon staat. De afstand tot de zon heeft echter weinig te maken met de gemiddelde temperatuur van een planeet.
Mercurius is de heetste planeet in het zonnestelsel Venus bijvoorbeeld, die bijna twee keer zo ver van de zon staat, heeft een gemiddelde temperatuur van 462ºC. Het verschil is te danken aan de atmosfeer. Op Venus is de atmosfeer dik en bestaat deze voornamelijk uit kooldioxide, waardoor de warmte wordt vastgehouden in een isolerende luchtbel, terwijl Mercurius een hele dunne atmosfeer heeft.
Komeetstaarten geven aan welke kant ze opgaan Kometen zijn in wezen brokken vies ijs die opwarmen wanneer ze de zon naderen. Op dat moment laten ze gas en stof los.
Komeetstaarten geven aan welke kant ze opgaan Op aarde zouden we verwachten dat de staart naar achteren wijst, maar in de ruimte is er geen lucht. Kometen worden gevormd en voortgeblazen door stralingsdruk en zonnewind, dus wijzen ze altijd van de zon af.
Zonder ruimtepak exploderen mensen in de ruimte De menselijke huid is rekbaar genoeg, dus het zal niet tot een explosie komen. Maar na ongeveer 10 seconden blootstelling raken mensen bewusteloos.
Zonder ruimtepak exploderen mensen in de ruimte In 1966 gebeurde dit helaas met een technicus tijdens een NASA-test, nadat bepaalde apparatuur uitviel. Gelukkig was de druk na 30 seconden al hersteld en knapte de technicus weer op.
De zon is de enige ster met planeten Deskundigen geloven dat de meeste sterren in de Melkweg planeten om zich heen hebben. Elke planeet die buiten ons zonnestelsel wordt gevonden, wordt een exoplaneet genoemd en deze beïnvloeden de manier waarop een ster verschijnt.
De zon is de enige ster met planeten Eén manier om exoplaneten te vinden is door op verschillende tijdstippen te zoeken naar een afname van het licht van bepaalde sterren. Dit kan betekenen dat een planeet voor de ster langs beweegt, wat invloed heeft op de manier waarop het licht voor ons verschijnt.
The identity of a speeding object captured in images by NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter last month has now been revealed, according to officials with the American space agency.
The unusual-looking, elongated object was spotted by the narrow-angle camera aboard the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) as it made its routine pass over the Moon’s surface between March 5 and 6, 2004.
Now, NASA officials have revealed the identity of the strange-looking object and the reason for its curious appearance in the photos the LRO obtained last month.
The object was photographed by the narrow-angle camera aboard the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter last month (Credit: NASA/Goddard/Arizona State University).
In 2022, the Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI) launched its own orbital spacecraft, the Korea Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter (KPLO), on August 4 from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. Also known as Danuri, the KPLO represents the first official mission launched by South Korea, which will see the spacecraft in orbit around the Moon for one year.
During its mission, Danuri will be utilizing a suite of scientific instruments built by South Korea, as well as one U.S.-built instrument, to carry out several experiments that will study the lunar environment, as well as help demonstrate a “lunar internet” and identify potential future landing sites.
Operating in almost parallel orbits, last month, the KPLO and LRO passed each other going in opposite directions, allowing the LRO to capture images of the South Korean spacecraft as it whizzed by.
Due to their opposite directional paths and the speed at which each lunar orbiter is traveling in their respective orbits (estimated to be close to 7,200 miles, or 1,500 kilometers, per hour), Danuri appeared elongated, making it look close to ten times its actual size, even despite the short exposure time of just 0.338 milliseconds used by the LRO’s narrow-angle camera.
According to the LRO operations team based at Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland, the high travel velocities between the LRO and Danuri meant that perfect timing was required in order for the NASA team to capture images of the South Korean spacecraft.
The KPLO appears close to ten times its actual size in the images obtained by NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter in March, 2024
(Credit: NASA/Goddard/Arizona State University).
The images obtained by NASA in March aren’t the first time that one of these spacecraft has obtained images of the other. Last April, the KPLO successfully obtained images of the LRO using its ShadowCam, which was provided by NASA for the South Korean orbiter’s mission.

Possessing a conventional box shape with a pair of solar panel wings and a parabolic antenna, Danuri relies on a mono propulsion system that incorporates four 30N thrusters, which help it achieve orbital maneuvers, and an additional four 5N attitude control thrusters.
Although designed to operate for just a year, it is possible that the KPLO, like the LRO, may enter an extended phase, during which it will descend to a lower position in orbit, placing it just 70 km above the lunar surface.
When light strikes the atmosphere all sorts of interesting things can happen. Water vapor can split sunlight into a rainbow arc of colors, corpuscular rays can stream through gaps in clouds like the light from heaven, and halos and sundogs can appear due to sunlight reflecting off ice crystals. And then there is the glory effect, which can create a colorful almost saint-like halo around objects.
Like rainbows, glories are seen when facing away from the light source. They are often confused with circular rainbows because of their similarity, but glories are a unique effect. Rainbows are caused by the refraction of light through water droplets, while glories are caused by the wave interference of light. Because of this, a glory is most apparent when the water droplets of a cloud or fog are small and uniform in size. The appearance of a glory gives us information about the atmosphere. We have assumed that some distant exoplanets would experience glories similar to Earth, but now astronomers have found the first evidence of them.

The observations come from the Characterising ExOplanet Satellite (Cheops) as well as observations from other observatories of an exoplanet known as WASP-76b. It’s not the kind of exoplanet where you’d expect a glory to appear. WASP-76b is not a temperate Earth-like world with a humid atmosphere, but a hellish hot Jupiter with a surface temperature of about 2,500 Kelvin. Because of this, the team wasn’t looking for extraterrestrial glories but rather studying the odd asymmetry of the planet’s atmosphere.
WASP-76b orbits its star at a tenth of the distance of Mercury from the Sun. At such a close distance the world is likely tidally locked, with one side forever boiling under its sun’s heat and the other side always in shadow. No such planet exists in our solar system, so astronomers are eager to study how this would affect the atmosphere of such a world. Previous studies have shown that the atmosphere is not symmetrical. The star-facing side is puffed up by the immense heat, while the atmosphere of the dark side is more dense.
For three years the team observed WASP-76b as it passed in front of and behind its star, capturing data on the intersection between the light and dark side. They found that on the planet’s eastern terminator (the boundary between light and dark sides) there was a surprising increase in light. This extra glow could be caused by a glory effect. It will take more observations to confirm this effect but if verified it will be the first glory observed beyond our solar system. Currently, glories have only been observed on Earth and Venus.
The presence of a glory on WASP-76b would mean that spherical droplets must have been present in the atmosphere for at least three years. This means either they are stable within the atmosphere, or they are constantly replenished. One possibility is that the glory is caused by iron droplets that rain from the sky on the cooler side of the planet. Even if this particular effect is not confirmed, the ability of modern telescopes to capture this data suggests that we will soon be able to study many subtle effects of exoplanet atmospheres.

The Stellar Demolition Derby in the Centre of the Galaxy

The Stellar Demolition Derby in the Centre of the Galaxy
The region near the Milky Way’s centre is dominated by the supermassive black hole that resides there. Sagittarius A*’s overwhelming gravity creates a chaotic region where tightly packed, high-speed stars crash into one another like cars in a demolition derby.
These collisions and glancing blows change the stars forever. Some become strange, stripped-down, low-mass stars, while others gain new life.
The Milky Way’s supermassive black hole (SMBH) is called Sagittarius A* (Sgr. A*). Sgr. A* is about four million times more massive than the Sun. With that much mass, the much smaller stars nearby are easily affected by the black hole’s powerful gravity and are accelerated to rapid velocities.
In the inner 0.1 parsec, or about one-third of a light-year, stars travel thousands of kilometres per second. Outside that region, the pace is much more sedate. Stars beyond 0.1 parsec travel at hundreds of km/s.
But it’s not only the speed that drives the collisions. The region is also tightly packed with stars into what astronomers call a nuclear star cluster (NSC.) The combination of high speed and high stellar density creates a region where stars are bound to collide.
“They whack into each other and keep going.”
Sanaea Rose, Department of Physics and Astronomy, UCLA
New research led by Northwestern University simulated stars orbiting Sgr. A* to understand the interactions and collisions and their results. It’s titled “Stellar Collisions in the Galactic Center: Massive Stars, Collision Remnants, and Missing Red Giants.” The lead author is Sanaea C. Rose from UCLA’s Department of Physics and Astronomy. The research was also recently presented at the American Physical Society’s April meeting.
The researchers simulated a population of 1,000 stars embedded in the NSC. The stars ranged from 0.5 to 100 solar masses, but in practice, the upper limit was about 30 solar masses due to the initial mass function. Other characteristics, like orbital eccentricities, were varied to ensure that the sample caught stars at different distances from Sgr. A*. That’s necessary to build a solid understanding of the stellar collisions.
“The region around the central black hole is dense with stars moving at extremely high speeds,” said lead author Rose. “It’s a bit like running through an incredibly crowded subway station in New York City during rush hour. If you aren’t colliding with other people, then you are passing very closely by them. For stars, these near collisions still cause them to interact gravitationally. We wanted to explore what these collisions and interactions mean for the stellar population and characterize their outcomes.”
“Stars, which are under the influence of a supermassive black hole in a very crowded region, are unlike anything we will ever see in our own solar neighbourhood.”
Sanaea Rose, Department of Physics and Astronomy, UCLA
The stellar density in the inner 0.1 parsecs is nothing like our Solar System’s neighbourhood. The nearest star to our Sun is the low-mass Proxima Centauri. It’s just over four light-years away. It’s like having no neighbours at all.
But in the NSC, things are way different.

“The closest star to our sun is about four light-years away,” Rose explained. “Within that same distance near the supermassive black hole, there are more than a million stars. It’s an incredibly crowded neighbourhood. On top of that, the supermassive black hole has a really strong gravitational pull. As they orbit the black hole, stars can move at thousands of kilometres per second.”
In a stellar density that high, collisions are inevitable. The rate of collisions is more severe the closer stars are to the SMBH. In their research, Rose and her colleagues simulated the region to determine the collisions’ effect on individual stars and the stellar population.
The simulations showed that head-on collisions are rare. So stars aren’t destroyed. Instead, they’re more like glancing blows, where stars can be stripped of their outer layers before continuing their trajectories.
“They whack into each other and keep going,” Rose said. “They just graze each other as though they are exchanging a very violent high-five. This causes the stars to eject some material and lose their outer layers. Depending on how fast they are moving and how much they overlap when they collide, they might lose quite a bit of their outer layers. These destructive collisions result in a population of strange, stripped down, low-mass stars.”
These stars end up migrating away from the SMBH. The authors say that there is likely a population of these low-mass stars spread throughout the galactic centre (GC.) They also say that the ejected mass from these grazing collisions could produce the gas and dust features other researchers have observed in the GC, like X7, and G objects like G3 and G2.
X7 is an elongated gas and dust structure in the galactic centre. The researchers suggest it could be made of mass stripped from stars during collisions between fast-moving stars near Sgr. A*. G3 and G2 are objects that resemble clouds of gas and dust but also have properties of stellar objects. Image Credit: Ciurlo et al. 2023.
Outside of the 0.1 parsecs region, the stars are slower. As a result, collisions between stars aren’t as energetic or destructive. Instead of creating a population of stripped-down stars, collisions allow the stars to merge, creating more massive stars. Multiple mergers are possible, creating stars more massive than our Sun.
“A few stars win the collision lottery,” Rose said. “Through collisions and mergers, these stars collect more hydrogen. Although they were formed from an older population, they masquerade as rejuvenated, young-looking stars. They are like zombie stars; they eat their neighbours.”
But after they gain that mass, they hasten their own demise. They become like young, massive stars that consume their fuel quickly.

“They die very quickly,” Rose said. “Massive stars are sort of like giant, gas-guzzling cars. They start with a lot of hydrogen, but they burn through it very, very fast.”
Another puzzling thing about this inner region is the lack of red giants. “Observations of the GC indicate a deficit of RGs within about 0.3 pc of the SMBH,” the authors write, referencing other research. Their results could explain it. “We consider whether main-sequence stellar collisions may help explain this observational puzzle,” they write. “We find that within ~ 0.01 pc of the SMBH, stellar collisions destroy most low-mass stars before they can evolve off the main sequence. Thus, we expect a lack of RGs in this region.”
The region around the Milky Way’s SMBH is chaotic. Even disregarding the black hole itself and its swirling accretion disk and tortured magnetic fields, the stars that dance to its tune live chaotic lives. The simulations show that most stars in the GC will experience direct collisions with other stars. But their chaotic lives could shed light on how the entire region evolved. And since the region resists astronomers’ attempts to observe it, simulations like this are their next best tool.
“It’s an environment unlike any other,” Rose said. “Stars, which are under the influence of a supermassive black hole in a very crowded region, are unlike anything we will ever see in our own solar neighbourhood. But if we can learn about these stellar populations, then we might be able to learn something new about how the galactic center was assembled. At the very least, it certainly provides a point of contrast for the neighbourhood where we live.”

Annunaki: Enigmatic Deities and the Alleged Architects of Humanity
Annunaki: Enigmatic Deities and the Alleged Architects of Humanity
In the rich tapestry of ancient Mesopotamian mythology, few figures are as intriguing and mysterious as the Annunaki. Described as gods descending from the heavens, their lore intertwines with the fabric of human origin and ancient cosmology, presenting a narrative that has captivated scholars, enthusiasts, and theorists alike.
Origins and Mythology
The Annunaki hold a pivotal place in the pantheon of Sumerian, Akkadian, Assyrian, and Babylonian cultures. These deities are often depicted as powerful beings who arrived from a distant planet, Nibiru, sometimes referred to as the 12th planet in our solar system. According to myth, they were in search of resources, specifically gold, to save their home world from an impending catastrophe.
The lore suggests that Earth’s abundant gold reserves caught the Annunaki’s attention, leading to their arrival and subsequent mining operations. However, laboring under the harsh conditions of our planet, they sought to engineer a workforce capable of carrying out the strenuous task of mining. This led to the creation of mankind, as per the narrative, making humans the direct product of Annunaki ingenuity.
Impact on Human Evolution
The narrative goes further to explain the rapid advancement of human civilization as a direct influence of the Annunaki. They are credited with teaching humans various skills and knowledge, from agriculture to writing, thus catalyzing the growth of civilizations across ancient Mesopotamia, often regarded as the cradle of civilization. This interventionist approach in human evolution paints the Annunaki not only as creators but also as teachers and protectors of mankind.
Skepticism and Scientific Perspective
While the story of the Annunaki offers a fascinating glance into ancient mythologies and the human penchant for storytelling, it is crucial to approach these narratives with a critical mind. Mainstream science and archaeology do not support the existence of Nibiru or the Annunaki’s role in human history as factual. The tales of the Annunaki, much like other mythological narratives, are reflections of our ancestors’ attempts to understand the world around them, using the language of myth to explain natural phenomena and the origins of human society.
The works of authors like Zechariah Sitchin, who popularized the Annunaki in modern times, often involve interpretations of ancient texts that many scholars have contested. It’s important to differentiate between mythological texts and historical evidence when exploring these subjects.

The Annunaki remain a compelling subject within ancient Mesopotamian mythology, embodying the human fascination with creation, gods, and the stars. Their story is a testament to the creativity and depth of ancient civilizations’ mythologies, offering insights into how our ancestors sought to explain their origins and the workings of the cosmos.
As we continue to explore ancient texts and archaeological findings, the line between myth and history offers a rich field for inquiry and understanding. While the Annunaki may not be the architects of humanity as the myths suggest, their stories provide a valuable glimpse into the spiritual and cosmological beliefs of ancient Mesopotamian cultures, reminding us of the complexity and richness of human imagination throughout the ages.
A team of scientists from the University of Tokyo has revealed a major breakthrough that allows them to create realistic 3D holographic displays using an ordinary iPhone screen.
While conventional approaches to holography involve complex and expensive laser emitters that have limited their practical use, the researchers behind this novel approach say their work could lead to dramatic improvements in holographic displays for virtual reality applications, including gaming, training, and even advanced military applications.
3D HOLOGRAPHIC DISPLAYS LIMITED BY COST AND COMPLEXITY
In science fiction, holograms are used for anything from basic communications to advanced military weaponry. In the real world, 3D holographic displays have yet to break through to everyday products and devices. That’s because creating holograms that look real and have significant fidelity requires laser emitters or other advanced pieces of optical equipment. This situation has stymied commercial development, as these components are complex and expensive.
More recently, research scientists were able to create realistic 3D holographic images without lasers by using a white chip-on-board light-emitting diode. Unfortunately, that method required two spatial light modulators to control the wave fronts of the emitted light, adding a prohibitive amount of complexity and cost.
Now, those same scientists say they have created a simpler, more cost-effective way to create realistic-looking 3D holographic displays using only one spatial light modulator and new software algorithms. The result is a simpler and cheaper method for creating holograms that an everyday technology like a smartphone screen can emit.

“Although holography techniques can create a very real-looking 3D representation of objects, traditional approaches aren’t practical because they rely on laser sources,” said research team leader Ryoichi Horisaki from The University of Tokyo in Japan. “Lasers emit coherent light that is easy to control, but they make the system complex, expensive, and potentially harmful to the eyes.”
To conquer this limitation, Horisaki’s team wanted to see if they could use lower-cost technology and the power of advanced computer algorithms to create a 3D holographic display that would rival displays using lasers. The key, they say, is a technology known as computer-generated holography (CGH) paired with a simple component known as a spatial light modulator.

To demonstrate their potential breakthrough approach, the researchers created a two-layer optical reproduction of a full-color three-dimensional image. The first layer is projected by the spatial light modulator, and the second layer is projected by the screen off of an iPhone 14 smartphone.
Next, the team’s customized algorithms coordinated the display of the two images to create a realistic-looking 3D holographic display that resembled those produced by expensive laser systems.
While the approach seems simple on the surface, the scientists say it is incredibly complex.
“It required carefully modeling the incoherent light propagation process from the screen and then using this information to develop a new algorithm that coordinated the light coming from the device screen with a single spatial light modulator,” they explain.
Fortunately, that work paid off, resulting in a new approach to designing and projecting realistic holographic displays that are significantly simpler and less expensive than the industry standard.
“This work aligns with our laboratory’s focus on computational imaging, a research field dedicated to innovating optical imaging systems by integrating optics with information science,” said Horisaki. “We focus on minimizing optical components and eliminating impractical requirements in conventional optical systems.”
“Holographic displays that use low-coherence light could enable realistic 3D displays while potentially reducing costs and complexity,” added Otoya Shigematsu, the paper’s first author. “Although several groups, including ours, have demonstrated holographic displays using low-coherence light, we took this concept to the extreme by using a smartphone display.”
NEW APPROACH COULD REVOLUTIONIZE VIRTUAL REALITY
In their study, which is published in the journal Optical Letters, the scientists behind the new method for generating 3D holographic displays say their current work only created a demonstration of their approach and that more work would be needed to apply it to commercial, military, and industrial applications.

However, they say the basic science behind the integration of computer algorithms and simple display technologies is a huge step toward dramatic improvements in virtual reality devices like headsets used in virtual gaming environments. In fact, they believe that their method is actually safer than traditional approaches, especially when used in close-up displays like VR headsets.
“We believe that this method could eventually be useful for minimizing the optics, reducing costs, and decreasing the potential harm to eyes in future visual interfaces and 3D display applications,” said Shigematsu. “More specifically, it has the potential to enhance the performance of near-eye displays, such as the ones being used in high-end virtual reality headsets.”
The scientists say they are now working on improving their algorithms to increase the number of layers and, therefore, the digital information they can display. If successful, they say they could create even more complex and realistic 3D holographic displays.
