UAP spotted over Portugal
UAP spotted over Portugal
An unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) was captured by an astrophotographer in Gandra, municipality of Esposende, on Sunday, and is being investigated by the Aerospace Phenomena Research Center (CIFA).
According to Vítor Moreira, president of CIFA, reported in NM, "The strange flying object was filmed for a minute, always with an indescribable shape, in a completely clear sky, suggesting its evolution over itself, perhaps derived from the atmospheric currents at that time".
CIFA preliminarily assigns two likely explanation scenarios, including the "strong hypothesis that it was a bag pulled by the wind or even a meteorological balloon".
As for the investigation, the centre reports that it is "ongoing", "expecting more details to be provided soon that will help clarify the bizarre occurrence, finding a plausible and rationally justified explanation".
"As soon as the investigations are finalised, we will report the situation of interest", he concluded.
Possible cigar-shaped UFO filmed during solar eclipse over Texas
Possible cigar-shaped UFO filmed during solar eclipse over Texas
A video recently emerged allegedly showing a strange fast moving cigar-shaped object resembling a UFO during the solar eclipse in Arlington, Texas, on April 8, just prior to 10 pm, before swiftly disappearing into the clouds.
While some speculate it could be an extraterrestrial vessel, others argue it might be the shadow cast of a plane flying above the clouds during the eclipse.
However, the footage casts doubt on this explanation, as the purported shadow not only emerges above the clouds but also vanishes behind them before reappearing, after which the object swiftly disappears into the clouds.
Furthermore, if it indeed was the shadow of a plane, wouldn't we also expect to see the shadows of the wings, rather than solely the fuselage?
Roswell Reimagined: Inside the Story of PD’s UFO-Inspired Patches with Ross Coulthart
Roswell Reimagined: Inside the Story of PD’s UFO-Inspired Patches with Ross Coulthart
In an engaging conversation with NewsNation’s Ross Coulthart, Roswell Police Chief Lance Bateman unveiled a new chapter in the city’s storied connection with UFO folklore. This small New Mexico town, synonymous with the 1947 UFO incident, continues to embrace its extraterrestrial heritage, this time through an innovative redesign of the Roswell Police Department’s uniform patches. The design features a flying saucer emitting a beam that forms the letter “R,” encircled by the motto “Protect and serve those that land here,” playfully acknowledging the city’s unique place in UFO culture.
Chief Bateman, who assumed his role in June of the previous year, initiated the patch redesign as part of a broader effort to engage with the community and update the department’s image. The process was democratic and creative, with officers contributing designs and ultimately voting for their favorite. This participatory approach not only fostered a sense of camaraderie within the force but also highlighted Roswell’s embrace of its identity as a hub for UFO enthusiasts and researchers.
Roswell’s connection to UFOs isn’t just a matter of local lore but a significant tourist draw and a point of cultural identity. Chief Bateman notes that the alien theme, while a more recent addition to the city’s identity, has become a crucial part of its allure. The new patches serve not just as a symbol of the police force’s role in the community but also as a nod to the city’s unique history and its open-minded approach to the mysteries of the universe.
The conversation also touched upon the original 1947 incident, which remains shrouded in mystery and speculation. Despite various explanations from the U.S. Air Force over the years, the true nature of what happened near Roswell continues to intrigue both the public and those in law enforcement like Chief Bateman. The police chief’s personal connection to the area, through his father’s military service at Walker Air Force Base, adds another layer to his perspectives on the local lore.
Chief Bateman’s approachable demeanor and open-mindedness about UFOs and the broader questions they pose about life beyond Earth reflect a larger curiosity and sense of wonder that characterizes the Roswell community. The new patches symbolize more than a mere uniform accessory; they represent Roswell’s unique position at the intersection of law enforcement, community identity, and the enduring human fascination with the unknown.
Ross Coulthart’s interview with Chief Bateman not only sheds light on the thought process behind the new patches but also encapsulates the broader implications of Roswell’s association with UFOs. It’s a story of community, identity, and the playful human spirit that dares to imagine what might lie beyond our skies. As Roswell continues to navigate its legacy as the site of one of the most famous UFO incidents in history, its police force’s new patches stand as a testament to the city’s embrace of its past and its openness to the mysteries of the future.

UFOs travelled to Earth 'through extra dimensions experts are trying to unlock'
Harvard professor and astrophysicist Avi Loeb says aliens could have been using the 'curled dimensions' scientists are trying to blast open so they can understand how the universe was created

UFOs may be travelling through the hidden dimensions scientists are trying to expose, a leading astrophysicist has claimed.
Harvard professor Avi Loeb believes aliens are travelling through “curled dimensions” detectable only through the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), CERN’s particle boosting accelerator.
The world’s largest particle collider, the LHC blasts protons travelling almost at the speed of light against other protons to create massive particle, similar to the Big Bang, in efforts to further understand matter and how the universe was created.

CERN scientists have used the LHC to try to detect six “extra spatial” dimensions, looking for particular particles as evidence that the dimensions exist, reports MailOnline.
In a new documentary, Loeb claimed extraterrestrials may have been developing dimension-hopping technology for billions of years and using theoretical quantum gravity engineering to travel through these hidden dimensions.
Loeb explained: “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.
These dimensions are what CERN scientists are trying to find using the Large Hadron Collider, a particle boosting accelerator(Image: Getty Images/iStockphoto)
“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.”
The scientist added by travelling through these extra-spacial dimensions, aliens reduce the risk of collision.
CERN’s LHC was first used in 2008, and is found on the French-Swiss border.
Man who disappeared in 1991 reappeared 30 years later with no memor
Man who disappeared in 1991 reappeared 30 years later with no memory
Throughout the world, numerous individuals have vanished over time, seemingly vanishing without a trace, only to resurface, sometimes after decades, in equally mysterious and intriguing circumstances.
The mysterious disappearance of Vasile Gorgos in 1991, a sixty-three-year-old farmer from Romania is such a case.
Gorgos, known for his routine trips to sell his cattle, vanished without a trace, leaving his family and authorities perplexed.
Despite extensive searches and efforts by the police, no leads emerged, and Gorgos was presumed to have met a tragic fate. His family mourned his loss, resigned to the idea that they would never see him again.
Fast forward thirty years, and against all odds, Vasile Gorgos returned, appearing at his family's doorstep dressed in the same clothes he wore when he vanished. However, what stunned everyone even more was Gorgos's complete lack of memory regarding his disappearance and the passage of time.
The reappearance of Gorgos, unchanged in appearance and attire after three decades, remains a baffling mystery, leaving questions unanswered and sparking speculation about the mysteries of memory and time.
Measuring the Atmospheres of Other Worlds to See if There are Enough Nutrients for Life
Life on Earth depends on six critical elements: Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Phosphorous, and Sulfur. These elements are referred to asCHNOPS, and along with several trace micronutrients and liquid water, they’re what life needs.
Scientists are getting a handle on detecting exoplanets that might be warm enough to have liquid water on their surfaces, habitability’s most basic signal. But now, they’re looking to up their game by finding CHNOPS in exoplanet atmospheres.
We’re only at the beginning of understanding how exoplanets could support life. To grow our understanding, we need to understand the availability of CHNOPS in planetary atmospheres.
At our current technological level, we’re just beginning to examine exoplanet atmospheres. The JWST is our main tool for the task, and it’s good at it. But the JWST is busy with other tasks. In 2029, the ESA will launch ARIEL, the Atmospheric Remote-sensing Infrared Exoplanet Large survey. ARIEL will be solely focused on exoplanet atmospheres.

In anticipation of that telescope’s mission, Herbort and his co-researchers are preparing for the results and what they mean for habitability. “The detailed understanding of the planets itself becomes important for interpreting observations, especially for the detection of biosignatures,” they write. In particular, they’re scrutinizing the idea of aerial biospheres. “We aim to understand the presence of these nutrients within atmospheres that show the presence of water cloud condensates, potentially allowing the existence of aerial biospheres.”
Our sister planet Venus has an unsurvivable surface. The extreme heat and pressure make the planet’s surface uninhabitable by any measure we can determine. But some scientists have proposed that life could exist in Venus’ atmosphere, based largely on the detection of phosphine, a possible indicator of life. This is an example of what an aerial biosphere might look like.

Subsequent research disagreed with this finding, but the issue is ongoing. Image Credits: ESO (European Space Organization)/M. Kornmesser & NASA/JPL/Caltech
“This concept of aerial biospheres enlarges the possibilities of potential habitability from the presence of liquid water on the surface to all planets with liquid water clouds,” the authors explain.
The authors examined the idea of aerial biospheres and how the detection of CHNOPS plays into them. They introduced the concept of nutrient availability levels in exoplanet atmospheres. In their framework, the presence of water is required regardless of other nutrient availability. “We considered any atmosphere without water condensates as uninhabitable,” they write, a nod to water’s primacy. The researchers assigned different levels of habitability based on the presence and amounts of the CHNOPS nutrients.
This table from the research illustrates the authors’ concept of atmospheric nutrient availability. As the top row shows, without water, no atmosphere is habitable. Different combinations of nutrients have different habitability potential. ‘red’ stands for redox, and ‘ox’ stands for the presence of the oxidized state of CO2, NOx, and SO2. Image Credit: Herbort et al. 2024.
To explore their framework of nutrient availability, the researchers turned to simulations. The simulated atmospheres held different levels of nutrients, and the researchers applied their concept of nutrient availability. Their results aim to understand not habitability but the chemical potential for habitability. A planet’s atmosphere can be altered drastically by life, and this research aims to understand the atmospheric potential for life.
“Our approach does not directly aim for the understanding of biosignatures and atmospheres of planets, which are inhabited, but for the conditions in which pre-biotic chemistry can occur,” they write. In their work, the minimum atmospheric concentration for a nutrient to be available is 10?9, or one ppb (part per billion.)
“We find that for most atmospheres at ( p gas, T gas) points, where liquid water is stable, CNS-bearing molecules are present at concentrations above 10?9,” they write. They also found that carbon is generally present in every simulated atmosphere and that sulphur availability increases with surface temperature. With lower surface temperatures, nitrogen (N2, NH3) is present in increasing amounts. But with higher surface temperatures, nitrogen can become depleted.
Phosphorus is a different matter. “The limiting element of the CHNOPS elements is phosphorus, which is mostly bound in the planetary crust,” they write. The authors point out that, at past times in Earth’s atmosphere, phosphorus scarcity limited the biosphere.
An aerial biosphere is an interesting idea. But it’s not the main thrust of scientists’ efforts to detect exoplanet atmospheres. Surface life is their holy grail. It should be no surprise that it still comes down to liquid water, all things considered. “Similar to previous work, our models suggest that the limiting factor for habitability at the surface of a planet is the presence of liquid water,” the authors write. In their work, when surface water was available, CNS was available in the lower atmosphere near the surface.
But surface water plays several roles in atmospheric chemistry. It can bond with some nutrients in some circumstances, making them unavailable, and in other circumstances, it can make them available.
“If water is available at the surface, the elements not present in the gas phase are stored in the crust condensates,” the authors write. Chemical weathering can then make them available as nutrients. “This provides a pathway to overcome the lack of atmospheric phosphorus and metals, which are used in enzymes that drive many biological processes.”

This complicates matters on worlds covered by oceans. Pre-biotic molecules might not be available if there’s no opportunity for water and rock to interact with the atmosphere. “If indeed it can be shown that life can form in a water ocean without any exposed land, this constraint becomes weaker, and the potential for the surface habitability becomes mainly a question of water stability,” the authors write.
Some of the models are surprising because of atmospheric liquid water. “Many of the models show the presence of a liquid water zone in the atmospheres, which is detached from the surface. These regions could be of interest for the formation of life in forms of aerial biospheres,” Herbort and his colleagues write.
If there’s one thing that research like this shows, planetary atmospheres are extraordinarily complex and can change dramatically over time, sometimes because of life itself. This research makes some sense in trying to understand it all. Emphasizing the complexity is the fact that the researchers didn’t include stellar radiation in their work. Including that would’ve made the effort unwieldy.
The habitability issue is complicated, confounded by our lack of answers to foundational questions. Does a planet’s crust have to be in contact with water and the atmosphere for the CHNOPS nutrients to be available? Earth has a temporary aerial biosphere. Can aerial biospheres be an important part of exoplanet habitability?
But beyond all the simulations and models, as powerful as they are, what scientists need most is more data. When ARIEL launches, scientists will have much more data to work with. Research like this will help scientists understand what ARIEL finds.
Testing a Probe that Could Drill into an Ice World

Testing a Probe that Could Drill into an Ice World
I remember reading about an audacious mission to endeavour to drill through the surface ice of Europa, drop in a submersible and explore the depths below. Now that concept may be taking a step closer to reality with researchers working on technology to do just that. Worlds like Europa are high on the list for exploration due to their potential to harbour life. If technology like the SLUSH probe (Search for Life Using Submersible Head) work then we are well on the way to realising that dream.
The search for life has always been something to captivate the mind. Think about the diversity of life on Earth and it is easy to see why we typically envisage creatures that rely upon sunlight, food and drink. But on Earth, life has found a way in the most inhospitable of environments, even at the very bottom of the ocean. The Mariana’s Trench is deeper than Mount Everest is tall and anything that lives there has to cope with cold water, crushingly high pressure and no sunlight. Seems quite alien but even here, life thrives such as the deep-sea crustacean Hirondellea Gigas – catchy name.

Europa, one of the moon’s of Jupiter has an ice crust but this covers over a global ocean of liquid water. The conditions deep down in the ocean of Europa might not be so very different from those at the bottom of the Mariana’s Trench so it is here that a glimmer of hope exists to find other life in the Solar System. Should it exist, getting to it is the tricky bit. It’s not just on Europa but Enceladus and even Mars may have water underneath ice shelves. Layers of ice up to a kilometre thick might exist so technology like SLUSH has been developed to overcome.

The technology is not too new though since melt probes like SLUSH have been tested before. The idea is beautifully simple. The thermo-mechanical probe uses a drilling mechanism to break through the ice and then the heat probe to partially melt the ice chips, forming slush to enable their transportation to behind the probe as it descends.
The probe, which looks rather like a light sabre, is then able to transmit data from the subsurface water back to the lander. A tether system is used for the data transmission using conductive microfilaments and an optical fibre cable. Intriguingly and perhaps even cunningly, should the fibre cable break (which is a possibility due to tidal stresses from the ice) then the microfilaments will work as an antenna. They can then be tuned into by the lander to resume data transmission. The tether is coiled up and housed inside spools which are left behind in the ice as the spool is emptied. I must confess my immediate thought here was ‘litter’! I accept we have to leave probes in order to explore but surely we can do it without leaving litter behind! However there is a reason for this too. As the spools are deployed, they act as receivers and transmitters to allow the radio frequencies to travel through the ice.
The company working on the device is Honeybee Robotics have created prototypes. The first was stand alone, had no data transmission capability and demonstrated the drilling and slushing technology in an ice tower in Honeybee’s walk in freezer. While this was underway, the tether communication technology was being tested too with the first version called the Salmon Probe. This was taken to Devon Island in the Arctic where the unspooling method is being put through its paces. The first attempts back in 2022 saw the probe achieving depths of 1.8m!
A further probe was developed called the Dolphin probe and this was capable of getting to depths of about 100m but sea ice limitations meant it could only get to a depth of 2m! Thus far, all probes have performed well. Honeybee are now working on the Narwhal Probe which will have more measuring equipment on board, a deployable tether and spool and will be far more like the finished product. If all goes to plan it will profile the ice on Devon Island to a depth of 100m. This is still quite short of the kilometre thick ice expected but it is most definitely fantastic progress toward exploring the cold watery depths of alien worlds.
A Neutron Star Merged with a Surprisingly Light Black Hole
Galactic collisions, meteor impacts and even stellar mergers are not uncommon events. neutron stars colliding with black holes however are a little more rare, in fact, until now, we have never observed one. The fourth LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA observing detected gravitational waves from a collision between a black hole and neutron star 650 million light years away. The black hole was tiny though with a mass between 2.5 to 4.5 times that of the Sun.
Neutron stars and black holes have something in common; they are both the remains of a massive star that has reached the end of its life. During the main part of a stars life the inward pull of gravity is balanced by the outward push of the thermonuclear pressure that makes the star shine. The thermonuclear pressure overcomes gravity for low mass stars like the Sun but for more massive stars, gravity wins. The core collapses compressing it into either a neutron star or a black hole (depending on the progenitor star mass) and explodes as a supernova – in the blink of an eye.
In May 2023, as a result of the fourth observing session of the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory-Virgo Gravitational Wave Interferometer and Kamioka Gravitational Wave Detector) network, gravitational waves were picked up from a merger event. The signal came from an object 1.2 times the mass of the Sun and another slightly more massive object. Further analysis revealed the likelihood that one was a neutron star and the other a low mass black hole. The latter falls into the so called ‘mass gap’, more massive than the most massive neutron star and less massive than the least massive black hole.
Interactions between objects can generate gravitational waves. Before they were detected back in 2015, stellar mass black holes were typically found through X-ray observations. Neutron stars on the other hand, were usually found with radio observations. Between the two, was the mass gap with objects lacking between three and five solar masses.
It has been the subject of debate among scientists with the odd object found which fell within the gap, fuelling debate about its existence. The gap has generally been considered to separate the neutron stars from the black holes and items in this mass group have been scarce. This gravitational wave discovery suggests maybe objects in this gap are not so rare after-all.
One of the challenges of detecting mass gap objects and mergers between them is the sensitivity of detectors. The LIGO team at the University of British Columbia researchers are working hard to improve the coatings used in mirror production. Enhanced performance on future LIGO detectors will further enhance detection capabilities. It’s not just optical equipment that is being developed, infrastructure changes are also being addressed including data analysis software too. Improving sensitivity in all aspects of the gravity wave network is sure to yield results in future runs. However for now, the rest of the first half of the observing run needs analysing with 80 more candidate signals to study.
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.

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.

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.

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. (Source)
“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.
