Spectacular Solar Pole Flip, Solar Tornadoes, Spaceweather (Video)
Spectacular Solar Pole Flip, Solar Tornadoes, Spaceweather (Video)
(N.Morgan) There is a lot of activity on the sun, and in space in general. There have been some solar tornadoes, a solar pole flip, and other odd space weather events. Solar tornadoes several times bigger than the Earth are generated in the solar atmosphere, researchers claim, after such a tornado was discovered using the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly telescope on board the Solar Dynamic Observatory (SDO) satellite. “This is perhaps the first time that such a huge solar tornado is filmed by an imager. Previously much smaller solar tornadoes were found. The solar/polar fields are not done in their cycle. In essence, there may be more earthquakes.
I had had a recent discussion about why the planet is experiencing so many earthquakes and why the plates beneath are so active. The solar weather seems to be affecting the Earth’s plates, as well as the fracking, HAARP, and other elements that are involved.
The “down under” country of Australia would be the stage for a classic close encounter on February 15, 1963. The quiet area of Willow Grove, near Moe, Victoria hosted the spread of one Charles Brew. As usual, Brew was up and on the job early in the morning. His 20 year old son Trevor was working in their milking shed. Charles was standing in a field, admiring the sky. The sun had been up for a time, but rain clouds threatened overhead. With an obstructed view of the eastern sky, Brew saw something very strange; a flying object began to descend toward the milking shed. Brew’s cattle and dogs began to react strangely as the object moved ever closer to the shed. A local newspaper, which later wrote a report on the Brews’ encounter, mentioned the dogs reaction, but sensationalized the farm animals’ reaction by stating that his cattle were doing somersaults. The Drews, of course, denied this fantastic claim. The UFO had now descended to about 75 feet above the ground, and began to hover over a Stringy-Bark tree. Close enough now for some guesswork, Brew estimated the craft was about 25 feet in diameter, and 10 feet in height. A transparent dome adorned the top of the craft, which had an antennae about 6 feet high. The top portion of the craft itself was a grayish, and apparently metallic. The underside was a pale blue color, and had protuberances around the outside edge. The underbelly slowly rotated as the craft hovered, seemingly defying Earth’s gravity. A low “whoosh” sound came from the rotating part of the airship. Brew describes his eyes were drawn to the object, “as though beams of magnetic current” emanated from the UFO. Soon he suffered a headache, apparently from the force of the beams. After a short period of hovering, the object started to climb to the west, disappearing into the clouds. Trevor never witnessed the craft itself, but did hear the strange sound that it made. By the time that Brews’ report went through channels, it was March 4 before he was officially interviewed. A Lieutenant Hudson and Squad Leader Javes of the RAAF discussed Brew’s sighting with him thoroughly. They were impressed with his story, and felt that he was a credible individual. The weather conditions at the time of the sighting: rain, low clouds, and poor visibility, effected the opinion of the investigators. Their report contained the following: “On 6th March, Dr. Berson and Mr. Clark (of the CSIRO (Commonwealth Scientific & Industrial Research Organisation) Meteorological Physics division) were interviewed to see if clouds could give this type of phenomenon. They agreed that a tornado condition could give this effect. The direction of rotation of Brew’s report of the object was consistent with known facts for the Southern Hemisphere. The blue colouring has been reported previously and is probably due to electric discharge and there would be a smell of ozone. The only difference in Brew’s report was that the object moved from East to West because all previous reports to the CSIRO Met section of this nature have been from West to East. Mr. Brew stated that the wind was fresh from an easterly direction. However, (a) meteorological report states that wind was westerly at 8 knots.” The investigator also stated: “There is little doubt that Brew did witness something, and it is most likely that it was a natural phenomenon. The phenomenon was probably a tornado. There was no reported damage along its path, therefore one could assume that it was weak in nature.” A civilian UFO research group influenced the Department of Air to also investigate Brew’s story. They issued the following statement: “Our investigation and enquiries reveal that there are scientific records of certain tornado-like meteorological manifestations which have a similar appearance in many ways to whatever was seen by Mr. Brew. The information available is such however, that while we accept this is a possibility, we are unable to come to any firm conclusion as to the nature of the object or manifestation reported.” The investigation’s conclusion would list tornadic wind as the “possible” cause. A statement issued by the Victorian Flying Saucer Research Society declared: “we are unable to come to any firm conclusion as to the nature of the object or manifestation reported.” It seems clear that the RAAF were largely parroting the CSIRO’s conclusions and taking things a little further without any realistic justification. Dr. Berson, of the UFO research group, paid a visit to Brew to personally review the sighting. Berson stated that the headache Brew had was probably due to “electronic magnetic” activity. Whatever “official” conclusions there were, it is apparent to me and surely any sane person, that a man with a credible reputation, and good common sense, could easily tell the difference between a flying saucer and a tornado. Brew was less than impressed with the findings of the Australian governmental groups. In his own words: “I wished it would come again. It was beautiful. I could feel the life pulsating from it.”

(N.Morgan) The accelerated sightings of UFOs seems to have intensified this year and especially, the last several months.The mystery surrounding these crafts has become almost mainstream in the media coverage they are now garnering. In a video from Mister Enigma, we re-visit the best sightings of this year.This is an interesting top 10 video. This is a bit different than the normal top list. There are more recent sightings and some of the video clips are actually quite good.
The dungeon in which Vlad the Impaler was imprisoned by the Turks has been found at Tokat Castle.
Back at the beginning of the 15th century Wallachian Prince Vlad III, the real-life inspiration behind Bram Stoker’s character Dracula, was held captive by the Ottoman Turks for twelve years.
Now archaeologists believe that they have discovered the very prison in which he had been held captive deep beneath Tokat Castle in northern Turkey. The dungeons were found following the discovery of a secret tunnel that was unearthed while restoration works were being carried out on the building.
“The castle is completely surrounded by secret tunnels. It is very mysterious,” said archaeologist Ibrahim Çetin. “It is hard to estimate in which room Dracula was kept, but he was around here.”
Despite his extended incarceration it is believed that Vlad went on to reclaim the Wallachian throne before eventually dying during a battle with the Ottomons in 1476. Read more at Yahoo
Andy Kaufman didn’t die in 1984…but died a few years later
A friend of Andy Kaufman claims the iconic comedian is still alive. Kaufman’s writing partner, Bob Zmuda says 35-year-old Kaufman faked his own death in 1984 and will be returning sometime in the near future. In his new book Andy Kaufman: The Truth, Finally Zmuda and Kaufman’s former girlfriend, Lynne Margulies, detail the comedian’s long-time obsession with the idea of faking his own death.
In the book, Zmuda recounts one night in particular when he received a call at four in the morning from Kaufman, asking him to meet at a Los Angeles diner. It was there Kaufman admitted he thought faking his death would be the ultimate joke, however, it was a joke Zmuda wanted no part of.
Zmuda believes that Kaufman found a body-double who was actually dying of cancer, shaved his own head and lost weight, then switched places with the man after he died.
The only reason he’s breaking his “longtime code of secrecy” is because Kaufman hasn’t held his end of the deal. In the book’s final pages he writes, “The only reason I’m giving it up now is that Andy set a time limit on this one. Thirty years. So I’ve kept my part of the bargain and kept my mouth shut. But no more. The prank’s over. I want him back and he’s coming back.”
Only the book’s co-author doesn’t think he’ll be coming back. Margulies writes that a friend told her Kaufman moved to San Francisco after faking his death, only to die of AIDS a few years later.
Regardless, Kaufman’s prank (whether it happened or not) continues to fool with fans. Andy Kaufman: The Truth, Finally goes on sale October 7th.
Girl dies of burn injuries under mysterious circumstances
Kanpur: An 18-year-old girl died after suffering burn injuries under mysterious circumstances in Auraiya district on Saturday. Police have started a probe. According to police the victim, a resident of Mada Ka Purwa under Achalda police station, had gone to answer nature’s call at a nearby field in the village on Saturday morning. The locals of the area were working in their farms when they heard her loud shrieks. They rushed to the spot and found herin flames. They tried to douse the fire by wrapping a quilt around her. She was immediately taken to a health centre and then to the district hospital. Later, the doctors referred her to Regional Institute of Medical Sciences and Research (RIMS), Saifai but she died on way to the institute. Doctors said that she had sustained major burn injuries.
Station officer Achalda said that the police are probing all angles. The victim’s body was later shifted to mortuary for post-mortem examination. – Times of India
A leading paranormal investigator has scoured a Staffordshire beauty spot following chilling sightings of a spectre known locally as The Black Eyed Child.
Lee Brickley launched an in-depth investigation of Cannock Chase after reports that the ghoulish apparition has returned to the sprawling heathland.
The child was last spotted 30 years ago, sparking worldwide interest – and is today a cult internet sensation.
Latest descriptions of the girl, who has coal-black pits for eye sockets, are identical to those chronicled in the early 1980s.
Lee, author of books about the paranormal, was stunned recently when he received a new eye-witness account of the Black Eyed Child.
Alerted by what sounded like screams, a shocked woman came across the wandering, sightless spectre while walking Birches Valley.
“We instantly started running towards the noise,” she said. “We couldn’t find the child anywhere and so stopped to catch our breath.
“That’s when I turned round and saw a girl stood behind me, no more than 10 years old, with her hands over her eyes.
“It was as if she was waiting for a birthday cake.
“I asked if she was OK and if she had been the one screaming. She put her arms down by her side and opened her eyes.
“That’s when I saw they were completely black, no iris, no white, nothing.
“I jumped back and grabbed my daughter. When I looked again, the child was gone. It was so strange.”
On his paranormal website, Lee, 28 and himself from Cannock, said the woman’s experience mirrors the earlier sighting.
“In the summer of 1982, my aunt was 18 years old, and she and her friends would often meet on Cannock Chase in the evening time, probably in much the same way many teenagers still do today.
“One evening, just before dark, she heard a little girl frantically shouting for help. Rushing to locate the sound, she stumbled upon a dirt track and caught sight of the girl, about six years old running in the opposite direction.
“When my aunt caught up, the girl turned around and looked her in the eyes, and then ran off into the dark woodland. Her eyes had been completely black with no trace of white.
“There was a police search but to no avail. At the time, no-one had any reason to believe anything paranormal was going on. The girl certainly appeared to be of flesh and blood.”
There have been similar sightings of Black Eyed Children around the world.
“Some people believe them to be extra-terrestrials, vampires or ghosts,” said Lee. “But there is one big difference between the sightings around the world and the stories coming out of Cannock Chase.
“Only on Cannock Chase do the sightings consistently happen during the daytime.
“In the US many reports suggest that black-eyed children often appear in groups, regularly knocking at the door of unknowing victims and asking quietly if they may come inside.” – Birmingham Mail
Family members at Williamson, New York, were shocked when they saw a UFO in nearby trees on September 27, 2014. Pictured: Williamson, New York. (Credit: Google)
New York family members at Williamson said they were “dumbfounded” when a bright light UFO appeared just 100yards away in nearby trees, moved out into a clearing and then shot off into the night sky about 11:01 p.m. on September 27, 2014, according to testimony in Case 60183 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness and family members were outside at a campfire when the object was first noticed.
“My brother-in-law first noticed an extremely bright white light through the trees 100 yards away east of us,” the reporting witness stated. “The light was blinding and we could not make out the shape.”
The object moved into a clearing before shooting up into the sky and disappearing. Pictured: Williamson, New York. (Credit: Google)
They first thought the object might be a helicopter.
“But there was no sound and the object moved in ways I have never seen.”
The witness described the object’s movement.
“The object started from behind the trees and then moved out into a clearing before accelerating at great speed up in the air and out of view. It started northeast in the tree line and slowly moved south as it came out of the trees and then shot up and away in the east.”
Family members said the object was not a helicopter and made no sound. Pictured: Williamson, New York. (Credit: Google)
The group eventually lost sight of the object.
“We were dumbfounded and could not believe what we saw. We lost sight of the object after it climbed to so much altitude and it was no longer visible.”

The Arizona couple stepped outside and noticed a rectangular-shaped object in a nearby field that was previously empty and fenced in. Pictured: Sierra Vista, Arizona. (Credit: Google)
Arizona witnesses at Sierra Vista recalled events from 2012 when a rectangular object sitting in what had been an empty field disappeared by morning, according to September 29, 2014, testimony in Case 60151 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The reporting witness and her husband had stepped outside about 9:45 p.m. on a clear December night in 2012 before heading to bed when they noticed the object in a nearby field.
They thought it was odd they had not heard the sounds of something being moved onto the property and that the object appeared to have electricity. Pictured: Sierra Vista, Arizona. (Credit: Google)
“We were only out there about a minute before we noticed what appeared to us to be a single-wide mobile home or rectangular-shaped house in the field across the street,” the witness stated. “This field is totally fenced in and there has been nothing there for several years so we were surprised to see a house. We hadn’t heard anything during the day nor seen any movement /trucks bringing in a house.”
The witness described the object.
“There appeared to be a door with a window on each side. Lights were on but the house/object appeared to be empty. We sat there discussing how odd it was that we never saw it being moved in or how quickly electricity seemed to be hooked up but shook it off and went to bed.”
They were surprised the next morning.
“The next morning we got our coffee and went outside to have a smoke and the object was not in the field – there was nothing there. It was an empty, fenced-in field as it always was. We don’t know for sure what it was, but it was very, very odd. To this day every time we drive by we always look at the fencing to see how someone could have pulled in a trailer and there is no way.”
In the morning, they noticed that the object was gone and could not understand how something had gotten into the fenced-in field and out again by morning. Pictured: Sierra Vista, Arizona. (Credit: Google)

A Missouri State Trooper reported a triangle-shaped object at the tree line in Joplin, Missouri, on August 2, 2014. Pictured: Joplin, Missouri. (Credit: Google)
A new witness came forward today adding a third 2014 date to close encounters with a UFO near ground level in Joplin, MO, according to testimony in Case 60172 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
ADVERTISEMENT
The witness, who reported a “very large UFO with windows hovering close to trees,” asked to remain anonymous and filed the case directly with Missouri MUFON Assistant State Director Margie Kay.
Previously three professional Joplin witnesses came forward reporting a July 8, 2014, case where the object was near ground level and larger than a house. Case 57853 was covered here in two stories: Missouri couple says UFO was ‘bigger than a house,’ and Close encounter with acre-size UFO leaves three Missouri witnesses baffled.
Additionally, another anonymous witness who also reported their sighting directly to Kay described a close encounter that took place on August 16, 2014, in Case 59509.
In today’s report, the witness recounts the events from September 2, 2014.
“I work in law enforcement as a State Trooper so don’t want my real name used, but felt it was important to let someone know what I saw,” the witness stated. “I want you to know that I’ve never seen anything like this before and hope I never do again.”
As the trooper approached the hovering object, he heard static on his car radio. Pictured: Joplin, Missouri. (Credit: Google)
The trooper was driving north along Range Line Road (49 Highway) at 5:12 a.m. on September 2, 2014, when the object was first seen.
“A light caught my eye to the northeast of my position low at the tree line. As I drove closer I slowed the vehicle because at first I thought that it must be a helicopter since whatever it was, was so low, that it couldn’t be a plane. I then noticed that there was structure to the object and that it began to move slowly west towards the highway and closer to my vehicle. There were no other cars on the highway at that time.”
The trooper moved closer to the object.
“As it got closer and as I drove closer I noticed that the top portion of this teardrop or triangular-shaped craft was elevated and that there were windows along the top portion. The windows were rectangular and placed vertically, and there were three that I could see from my position. There was a yellow/white glow coming from inside the windows. I did not see any people inside but did see movement – I assume it was the occupants moving around.”
The trooper described the object.
“The craft appeared to be at least 100-feet-plus wide and 25-feet or so high. It was a dark, dull gray/black metallic craft with lights on the bottom only. I saw no navigation lights. The bottom lights were an amber and a red/orange color of varying sizes, but the odd thing was that there was no beam coming from any of the lights – they simply glowed. The size of the lights was from streetlight size to perhaps 24-inches in diameter. There was a low hum coming from the object which I only noticed on close approach at about 50-feet.”
The witness slowed down when the object moved close to the highway.
“It then spun around like a top and reversed direction. As it did so, I heard a loud static noise come from my radio for approximately 15 seconds. I did not call this in to report it because I wasn’t sure what I was looking at and did not want to put my job in jeopardy in case it was a real UFO.”
The object moved away slowly to the east until the trooper could no longer see it.
“I realized that my vehicle was stopped on the highway although I remember thinking that I did not intend to stop. I looked at the clock and realized that I had been watching the object for 15 minutes. At that point, I saw a jet moving very fast from east to west. It banked to the north and went back east. It looked like a fighter jet that may have been looking for the object I saw. I could hear it clearly. I did not believe in UFOs before this incident but I know what I saw and it was not something of ours – at least that is known to the public.”
The object eventually moved slowly away toward the east and disappeared. Pictured: Joplin, Missouri. (Credit: Google)
On September 2, 2014, a witness reported Case 59509 that occurred at 10:15 p.m. on August 16, 2014. Like the trooper, this witness was also driving north along Range Line Road (49 Highway) in Joplin when the object was first seen.
“I noticed some lights hovering over the trees to my right as I approached Redding Road. As I got closer I could see the dark outline of a craft that looked oval in shape from the bottom. It had lights all over the bottom which were large orange lights and small blue lights which pulsated, getting brighter and dimmer. There was no sound.”
The witnesses’ vehicle began to experience difficulties.
“As I approached, the radio speakers made a strange static noise even though my radio was not on. My headlights went off and on again. I pulled to the side of the highway because I was afraid my engine would fail and also to get a better look at the object and take a picture, but I could not get my cell phone to come on. I probably watched it for 10 minutes total time.”
The witness described the object.
“The object was hovering just over the trees probably 100-feet from the ground and 100-feet or less from me. The object then moved slightly and then took off very fast directly east from where it was hovering. I know it was not a plane or helicopter because there were no navigation lights and no sound. It was close enough to be heard. This has me very concerned and I’d like to know what it was – military or otherwise.”
Joplin is a city in southern Jasper County and northern Newton County in the southwestern corner of Missouri, population 50,150.
Cases 57853 and 59509 have both been closed as an Unknown. Today’s Case 60172 is under investigation by Missouri MUFON. Missouri has a current UFO Alert Rating of 3 with a higher than average number of recent reports nationally. Missouri had 20 UFO reports in August 2014 – the 10th highest reporting state – while California had 99 reports as the highest reporting state. The above quotes were edited for clarity.

Het Engelse Cannock Chase werd in de jaren tachtig opgeschrikt door een meisje met pikzwarte ogen. De afgelopen 30 jaar bleef het stil rond het meisje, tot dit jaar. Op 13 september jongstleden wandelde een echtpaar in een bos in Cannock Chase. In het bos hoorden de twee het gegiechel van een klein meisje.
Uit het niets verscheen een klein kind. Het stel stopte gelijk met wandelen, nadat bleek dat de ogen van het meisje geen kleur hadden. Volgens de man was ook de lichaamshouding niet menselijk. Het hoofd was gekanteld naar één kant, waardoor het leek alsof ze was opgehangen. Ze staarde het echtpaar ongeveer vijf minuten aan, waarna ze tussen de bomen verdween.
Enkele maanden geleden werd in dezelfde plaats ook al een meisje met pikzwarte ogen gezien. Toen een vrouw met haar dochter in het bos liep hoorde ze gegil. Het meisje, dat niet ouder leek dan 10 jaar, dook uit het niets op. Ze bedekte haar ogen met haar handen. Toen ze haar handen omlaag deed, bleek dat haar ogen helemaal zwart waren. De vrouw deinsde achteruit. Het meisje verdween net zo snel als ze was gekomen.
Hoewel het er sterk op lijkt dat dit verhaal een hoax van de website 4-chan is, zijn er wereldwijd meerdere meldingen gedaan van een kind met zwarte ogen. Sommige mensen denken dat het buitenaardsen, vampieren of geesten zijn.
Five innovative Air Force aircraft that you’ve probably never heard of -
By Staff Sgt. Antonio Gonzalez Air Force Public Affairs Agency
The history of the Air Force is rooted in finding new ways to solve problems. It’s one of creating out-of-the-box solutions and achieving greater possibilities. Drone technology, stealth aircraft and space vehicles were merely science fiction until we made them reality. The aircraft you are about to discover brought upon revolutionary new abilities for today’s Air Force and will continue to have an impact on technology in the future.
CHANCE-VOUGHT/LTV XC-142A
The tilt-wing XC-142A was an experimental aircraft designed to test the operational benefits of vertical/short takeoff and landing transports. Such an aircraft would permit rapid movement of troops and supplies into unprepared areas under all-weather conditions. An XC-142A first flew conventionally on Sept. 29, 1964, and on Jan. 11, 1965, it completed its first transitional flight by taking off vertically, changing to forward flight and finally landing vertically.
Tilting the wing and engines skyward permitted vertical takeoff like a helicopter and then the wing and engines were gradually tilted forward to provide the greater speed of a fixed-wing aircraft in forward flight. The engines were linked together so that a single engine could turn all four propellers and the tail rotor. In tests, the XC-142A was flown from airspeeds of 35 mph backwards to 400 mph forward. XC-142As were tested extensively by the Army, Navy, Air Force and NASA.

The Lockheed D-21 is an unmanned or “drone” aircraft designed to carry out high-speed, high-altitude strategic reconnaissance missions over hostile territory. It is a product of the Lockheed “Skunk Works” program that developed the A-12, YF-12A and SR-71 “Blackbird” manned aircraft in the 1960s.
Originally, the D-21 was designed to be launched from the back of a modified A-12 (redesignated M-12) carrier aircraft. The first flight of the D-21/M-12 combination took place on Dec. 22, 1964, but the first D-21 release from an M-12 did not occur until March 5, 1966. Two more launches were successful, but on July 30, 1966, a D-21 collided with the M-12 after release, destroying both aircraft and resulting in the death of one of the M-12′s crew members. No further “piggyback” launches were attempted.
A new launch system was developed using modified B-52H aircraft as carriers. The new D-21 configuration (designated D-21B) had dorsal mounting hooks for carriage under the B-52′s wing and a solid rocket booster for the initial acceleration required to start the ramjet engine. The first launch from a B-52 took place on Nov. 6, 1967, but the D-21 crashed. Several flights followed in 1968 with mixed success.
The first operational launch was on Nov. 9, 1969, but the D-21B was lost. Several successful operational missions were flown over the next two years, but the D-21 program was highly classified and details have not been released. The program was canceled in 1971, and the D-21s were placed in storage.
NORTHROP TACIT BLUE
The Tacit Blue (Whale) aircraft was built to test the advances in stealth technology. The USAF, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, and the Northrop Corp. worked together from 1978 to 1985 to demonstrate that curved surfaces on an aircraft result in a low radar return signal from ground radar. With such a low radar return signal, Tacit Blue demonstrated that such an aircraft could operate close to the battlefield forward line without fear of being discovered by enemy radar. It could continuously monitor enemy forces behind the battlefield and provide targeting information to a ground command center.
The aircraft made its first flight in February 1982, and by the conclusion of the program in 1985, had flown 135 times. It had a digital fly-by-wire flight control system to help stabilize the aircraft. Tacit Blue had a single flush inlet on the top of the fuselage to provide air to its two engines.
BOEING X-40A
The unmanned Boeing X-40A was the first-phase flight test vehicle for the U.S. Air Force’s Space Maneuver Vehicle (SMV) program that began in the late 1990s. The SMV program aimed at developing a new generation of small, reusable, highly maneuverable space vehicles for deploying satellites, surveillance, and logistics missions.
Designed and built by the Boeing Company in partnership with the Air Force Research Laboratory, the X-40A was produced at Boeing’s Phantom Works facility at Seal Beach, California. This test aircraft was a 90 percent scale version of what would later be designated the X-37 space plane.
On Aug. 11, 1998, the X-40A made its first successful flight at Holloman Air Force Base, New Mexico. Lifted to an altitude of about 10,000 feet by a helicopter, the X-40A was released, and it made an unpowered flight to demonstrate high-speed guidance, navigation, and control capabilities.
Following that single flight, the USAF loaned the X-40 to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to test the shape, guidance, and other systems of the X-37. After captive-carry flights to practice release procedures and test equipment, the X-40A made its first flight for NASA on March 28, 2001. Carried aloft by a U.S. Army helicopter to 15,000 feet before being released, the X-40A flew itself, guided by onboard systems, to a gentle landing at Edwards AFB, California. The X-40A made a total of seven successful flights in support of the X-37 program.
SCALED COMPOSITES LONG-EZ “BOREALIS”
On Jan. 31, 2008, the modified Scaled Composites Long-EZ completed the first manned flight of an aircraft powered by a pulsed detonation engine (PDE). The flight was the result of five years of innovation and cooperative effort between the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) and Innovative Scientific Solutions Inc. (ISSI). The project used the popular Long-EZ designed by Burt Rutan as a platform.
Engines normally burn fuel and air at subsonic speeds to provide propulsion. PDEs detonate the fuel-air mixture into repeated, controlled explosions. The resulting supersonic shockwaves create thrust. In this engine, the thrust is expelled through four tubes out the back of the aircraft. Remarkably, the PDE in this aircraft was made partially from off-the-shelf automotive parts.
Pulsed detonation engines are still in their infancy, but this technology may become common as it matures. PDEs are much less complicated and promise to be less expensive to operate than jet engines. Moreover, they offer a fuel savings of between 5-20 percent over traditional turbojet engines.
It’s easy to see how these experimental aircraft helped develop technologies present in our current inventory. What future technology do you think will be in our next test aircraft?

UFO disc over Shanghai Financial Center on 27th September 2014
New amazing video footage of a strenge disc – shaped UFO recorded in the sky above Shanghai Financial Center on 27th September 2014.
Witness said: A large unidentified flying object was photographed by chance, around the International Financial Center in Shanghai ( Shanghai IFC Mall), located in its namesake city in eastern China.
Aliens May Destroy Humanity to Protect other Civilisations, Say Scientists
Aliens May Destroy Humanity to Protect other Civilisations, Say Scientists
Rising greenhouse emissions could tip off aliens that we are a rapidly expanding threat, warns a report. It may not rank as the most compelling reason to curb greenhouse gases, but reducing our emissions might just save humanity from a pre-emptive alien attack, scientists claim.
Watching from afar, extraterrestrial beings might view changes in Earth’s atmosphere as symptomatic of a civilisation growing out of control – and take drastic action to keep us from becoming a more serious threat, the researchers explain. This highly speculative scenario is one of several described by a Nasa-affiliated scientist and colleagues at Pennsylvania State University that, while considered unlikely, they say could play out were humans and alien life to make contact at some point in the future. Shawn Domagal-Goldman of Nasa’s Planetary Science Division and his colleagues compiled a list of plausible outcomes that could unfold in the aftermath of a close encounter, to help humanity “prepare for actual contact”. In their report, Would Contact with Extraterrestrials Benefit or Harm Humanity? A Scenario Analysis, the researchers divide alien contacts into three broad categories: beneficial, neutral or harmful. Beneficial encounters ranged from the mere detection of extraterrestrial intelligence (ETI), for example through the interception of alien broadcasts, to contact with cooperative organisms that help us advance our knowledge and solve global problems such as hunger, poverty and disease. Another beneficial outcome the authors entertain sees humanity triumph over a more powerful alien aggressor, or even being saved by a second group of ETs. “In these scenarios, humanity benefits not only from the major moral victory of having defeated a daunting rival, but also from the opportunity to reverse-engineer ETI technology,” the authors write. Other kinds of close encounter may be less rewarding and leave much of human society feeling indifferent towards alien life. The extraterrestrials may be too different from us to communicate with usefully. They might invite humanity to join the “Galactic Club” only for the entry requirements to be too bureaucratic and tedious for humans to bother with. They could even become a nuisance, like the stranded, prawn-like creatures that are kept in a refugee camp in the 2009 South African movie, District 9, the report explains.
The most unappealing outcomes would arise if extraterrestrials caused harm to humanity, even if by accident. While aliens may arrive to eat, enslave or attack us, the report adds that people might also suffer from being physically crushed or by contracting diseases carried by the visitors. In especially unfortunate incidents, humanity could be wiped out when a more advanced civilisation accidentally unleashes an unfriendly artificial intelligence, or performs a catastrophic physics experiment that renders a portion of the galaxy uninhabitable.
To bolster humanity’s chances of survival, the researchers call for caution in sending signals into space, and in particular warn against broadcasting information about our biological make-up, which could be used to manufacture weapons that target humans. Instead, any contact with ETs should be limited to mathematical discourse “until we have a better idea of the type of ETI we are dealing with.” The authors warn that extraterrestrials may be wary of civilisations that expand very rapidly, as these may be prone to destroy other life as they grow, just as humans have pushed species to extinction on Earth. In the most extreme scenario, aliens might choose to destroy humanity to protect other civilisations. “A preemptive strike would be particularly likely in the early phases of our expansion because a civilisation may become increasingly difficult to destroy as it continues to expand. Humanity may just now be entering the period in which its rapid civilisational expansion could be detected by an ETI because our expansion is changing the composition of the Earth’s atmosphere, via greenhouse gas emissions,” the report states. “Green” aliens might object to the environmental damage humans have caused on Earth and wipe us out to save the planet. “These scenarios give us reason to limit our growth and reduce our impact on global ecosystems. It would be particularly important for us to limit our emissions of greenhouse gases, since atmospheric composition can be observed from other planets,” the authors write. Even if we never make contact with extraterrestrials, the report argues that considering the potential scenarios may help to plot the future path of human civilisation, avoid collapse and achieve long-term survival.
An astronomer, Chris has been studying reports of UFOs [or PFTs - "pesky flying things", as he sometimes likes to call them] since the mid-1970s. A writer and editor for science and technology publications, he also writes about his investigations and research into UFO cases.
He publishes, along with Geoff Dittman, 'The Canadian UFO Survey', an annual compilation of UFO Reports from across Canada.
Chris has had five books published: 'Visitations?' (1989) and 'Unnatural History' (1993), the latter of which is in its third printing. 'Mysterious Manitoba' (1997), co-authored with Dave Creighton and Brian Fidler, 1997, 'Abductions & Aliens - What's Really Going On' published by Dundurn, 1999 and The Canadian UFO Report with Geoff Dittman.
His day-job is with the Public Relations Department of The University of Manitoba in Winnipeg.
Researchers have revealed over 50 previously undiscovered geoglyphs in northern Kazakhstan, determined to have been created by ancients.
Using many different investigative technologies over the past year, including archaeological excavations, ground-penetrating radar surveys, aerial photography and dating, archeologists from Kazakhstan’s Kostanay University, working in collaboration with Vilnius University in Lithuania, have presented their initial findings at the European Association of Archaeologists’ annual meeting in Istanbul, according to Live Science.
Discovered using Google Earth, the geoglyphs are designed in a variety of geometric shapes, including squares, rings, crosses and swastikas (the swastika is a design that was used in ancient times). Ranging from 90 to 400 meters (295 to 1,312 feet) in diameter, some of them are longer than a modern-day aircraft carrier. Researchers say that the geoglyphs are difficult to see on the ground, but can easily be seen from the sky.
Archaeologists Irina Shevnina and Andrew Logvin, of Kostanay University, in an email to Live Science, state “As of today, we can say only one thing — the geoglyphs were built by ancient people. By whom and for what purpose, remains a mystery.”
The videos below show these amazing, mysterious geoglyphs.
Controversial 300-Million-Year-Old Screw Of Unknown Origin Baffles Scientists -
Controversial 300-Million-Year-Old Screw Of Unknown Origin Baffles Scientists -
MessageToEagle.com - On our planet there are remarkable out-of-place artifacts that according to orthodox science shouldn't exist, but they do. This 300-million-year-old screw embedded in a rock is an example of yet another controversial artifact that challenges modern science.
On October 7, 1996, a group of researchers were participating in an expedition MAI-Kosmopoisk trying to find the fragments of a celestial body that fell in the Kaluga region, in western Russia.
What they did not expect to discover was an out-of-place artifact that until this day defies explanation.
When Dmitry Kurkov who discovered the stone removed the dirt from it, he saw a bolt embedded in the rock.
The screw, which is clearly visible in the head and nut, has a length of about cm and a diameter of about three millimeters.
Scientists initially thought that the screw was in a farm machine, but further examination revealed that the screw was firmly fixed in the rock.
X-ray studies also ruled out the possibility that it is a fossil crinoidea trunk, because its size is larger than the specimens of marine animals.
Geologists estimate that the age of the rock is 300-320 million years.
Who left this baffling object on the Earth? Did this alien artifact belong to an unknown ancient civilization far more advanced than us?
About 300 million years ago the first land animals had yet to evolve into dinosaurs. There were no humans on our planet at that time. So how did it end up in a 300-million.year-old rock? Was the screw left by ancient aliens visiting Earth?
This finding has been studied intensively in various scientific institutions of Russia - from geologists, physicists, paleontologists, mineralogists and proved that the screw was in the sediment before it is mounted on a rock. All technicians who examined this artifact are convinced that the screw has been artificially constructed and not a product of a natural process.
It is not the first time millions of year old artifacts have been discovered. We have previously seen there are several other artifacts that strongly challenge the evolutionary scenario.
In in 1889, workers in southwest Idaho discovered the Nampa figurine, an artifact skillfully formed in clay that has baffled scientists for many years.
In 1885, an iron smelter working in the foundry of the Austrian Isador Braun of Vocklabruck, Austria, discovered a small, cube-shaped piece of iron embedded in a block of coal dating to the Tertiary period lasting from approximately 65.5 million to 2.6 million years ago.
In 1851, an object that resembled a silver-zinc vase inlaid with fine silver in the form of the vine was discovered embedded within 15 feet of solid sedimentary rock. The age of this vase, according to the rock in which it found supposedly millions of years old.
A very strange 300-million-year-old aluminum gear was discovered in Vladivostok, Russia. In fact, there are so many such baffling discoveries and there is no doubt they have all undermined the most fundamental doctrines of modern science.
The screw found in the Kaluga region, is yet another puzzling artifact of unknown origin that cannot be explained by modern science.
Obviously, someone was walking the Earth millions of years ago, but these beings were not humans.

10,000 Year Old Rock Paintings Depicting Aliens and UFOs Found in India
10,000 Year Old Rock Paintings Depicting Aliens and UFOs Found in India
Chhattisgarh state department of archaeology and culture plans to seek help from Nasa and Isro for research on 10,000-year-old rock paintings depicting aliens and UFOs in Charama region in Kanker district in tribal Bastar region.
According to archaeologist JR Bhagat, these paintings have depicted aliens like those shown in Hollywood and Bollywood flicks. Located about 130km from Raipur, the caves come under village Chandeli and Gotitola.
“The findings suggest that humans in prehistoric times may have seen or imagined beings from other planets which still create curiosity among people and researchers. Extensive research is needed for further findings. Chhattisgarh presently doesn’t have any such expert who could give clarity on the subject,” Bhagat told TOI.
There are several beliefs among locals in these villages. While few worship the paintings, others narrate stories they have heard from ancestors about “rohela people” — the small sized ones — who used to land from sky in a round shaped flying object and take away one or two persons of village who never returned.
“The paintings are done in natural colours that have hardly faded despite the years. The strangely carved figures are seen holding weapon-like objects and do not have clear features. Specially, the nose and mouth are missing. In few pictures, they are even shown wearing space suits. We can’t refute possibility of imagination by prehistoric men but humans usually fancy such things,” the archaeologist said.
He added that it is a co-incidence that such ancient images appear to have sharp resemblance to UFOs shown in alien movies. “The fan-like antenna and three legs of vehicle’s stand clearly show a similarity to UFO type craft,” he said.
Other archaeologists would also be consulted for further verification.
The International Space Station's robotic arm, Canadarm2, grapples the Orbital Sciences' Cygnus cargo craft, as seen in this still image taken from NASA TV July 16, 2014. The Orbital Sciences Corp cargo ship reached the International Space Station on Wednesday with a delivery of food, supplies, science experiments and a fleet of tiny Earth-imaging satellites that will be launched from the orbital outpost.
An unidentified flying object, or UFO, was sighted near the International Space Station on Sept. 21.The Space Station is in decaying orbit about 261 miles or 420 kilometres above the Earth
The UFO was spotted in a video (below) that was posted on YouTube by user Streetcap1 who calls himself an "ufologist." It was captured by a live NASA space station camera. In the video, a circular glowing light can be seen floating over as the space station made its orbit around the Earth.
The New York Daily News reported that in the month of August, white UFOs like this have been spotted several times near the space station. This is the third time the mysterious craft spotted near the International Space Station was caught on camera.
Three videos by UFO watchers were taken while watching live footage of the International Space Station. On Aug. 4, Scott Waring of UFO Sightings Daily said he saw what appeared to be like a glowing disk. According to Huston Chronicle, on Aug. 4, several balls of white light were seen by UFO enthusiasts who were watching NASA's live webcam.
With regard to the video, Waring wrote wrote on his website that he had taken a screenshot of the UFO from the video. He then enlarged it, only to find that it had a long line down its middle and a dome on its top. The lower bottom, however, was rectangular, he described.
Half way through the video, as the object seems to get nearer and nearer, the camera goes blank. A blue screen appears making it all the more exciting for believers.
One YouTube user, whotookmymojo, commented that it was really "neat" that Waring was able to capture the blue screen as the object got closer. "You can almost imagine that the sensors are saying, 'oh-no not another'," the user added.
Some of them even commented that the video makes it clear that NASA is guilty of hiding the truth. While some users appreciated the video and Waring's keen eye, skeptics stated it was blurry.
Waring posted another video captured by Streetcap1. That video shows a white light glowing above the Earth's domed atmosphere on Aug. 7. The white light seemed to glow and disappear slowly and steadily.
The third video posted by Streetcap 1 shows a glowing cluster of white lights that appear like dots over the edge of the space station. The cluster of dots, four in number, fade away completely after a minute.
According to Waring, 20 percent of the UFOs that have been recorded around the world are white glowing balls of light. Many people who believe in these sightings are excited, while sceptics and non believers continue to speculate on whether the captured object is space junk floating near the space station.
While some like to believe and convince themselves there is life out there in space, others try to give logical explanations. The truth, however, is still not known.
INCREDIBLE CLOSE ENCOUNTER IN WAYNE NEW JERSEY AUGUST 12, 1961 WAYNE NEW JERSEY
I decided to go for a walk At 10:30 pm around August 12, 1961. It was a clear night, not a single cloud. I was on my second lap around the ball field when the entire ball field lite up like a Christmas tree. I tilted my head to see what it was. The object hovered over for about 30-45 seconds. It was about 40-50 feet above me. I noticed the object to be round in shape with one major beam shooting out of the bottom of the aircraft. The beam was so bright it blinded me for a couple of seconds.
After studying the aircraft my eyes were focused to the west. Looking out over the trees I noticed there were three more aircraft waiting for the one above me to leave. These three ships all had red lights on the tops of their aircrafts. Moments later when the object above decided to leave, the other three left with the other one. These four objects left with such an incredible speed. They were out of sight before I could even blink an eye. The only noise the object made when it left was a very slight hum. You could barely hear it. the other three made absolutely no noise at all. Incredible speeds, I had never witnessed anything like that before. There was nobody else in the ball field at that time. The spaceship made the area so bright I figured it would be on the news or even in the newspaper. No such luck. Nothing. Why was I the only one to see this object? Why was it hovering so close to me? Why wasn’t I abducted? I have thought about that night for the past 53 years. What did they want? I think quite often about the speed that they all traveled and how quiet they all were blew my mind. I wasn’t scared at all, just very curious.
53 years later the only thing that has changed is my curiosity. It’s about ten times greater now. It was truly an amazing evening. Thank you & God bless.
Nothing is solid: This is the world of Quantum Physics
Nobel Prize winning physicists have proven beyond doubt that the physical world is one large sea of energy that flashes into and out of being in milliseconds, over and over again.
Nothing is solid.
This is the world of Quantum Physics.
They have proven that thoughts are what put together and hold together this ever-changing energy field into the ‘objects’ that we see.
So why do we see a person instead of a flashing cluster of energy?
Think of a movie reel.
A movie is a collection of about 24 frames a second. Each frame is separated by a gap. However, because of the speed at which one frame replaces another, our eyes get cheated into thinking that we see a continuous and moving picture.
Think of television.
A TV tube is simply a tube with heaps of electrons hitting the screen in a certain way, creating the illusion of form and motion.
This is what all objects are anyway. You have 5 physical senses (sight, sound, touch, smell, and taste).
Each of these senses has a specific spectrum (for example, a dog hears a different range of sound than you do; a snake sees a different spectrum of light than you do; and so on).
In other words, your set of senses perceives the sea of energy from a certain limited standpoint and makes up an image from that.
It is not complete, nor is it accurate. It is just an interpretation.
All of our interpretations are solely based on the ‘internal map’ of reality that we have, and not the real truth. Our ‘map’ is a result of our personal life’s collective experiences.
Our thoughts are linked to this invisible energy and they determine what the energy forms. Your thoughts literally shift the universe on a particle-by-particle basis to create your physical life. Look around you.
Everything you see in our physical world started as an idea, an idea that grew as it was shared and expressed, until it grew enough into a physical object through a number of steps.
You literally become what you think about most.
Your life becomes what you have imagined and believed in most.
The world is literally your mirror, enabling you to experience in the physical plane what you hold as your truth … until you change it.
Quantum physics shows us that the world is not the hard and unchangeable thing it may appear to be. Instead, it is a very fluid place continuously built up using our individual and collective thoughts.
What we think is true is really an illusion, almost like a magic trick.
Fortunately we have begun to uncover the illusion and most importantly, how to change it. What is your body made of?
Nine systems comprise the human body including Circulatory, Digestive, Endocrine, Muscular, Nervous, Reproductive, Respiratory, Skeletal, and Urinary.
What are those made up of?
Tissues and organs.
What are tissues and organs made of?
Cells.
What are cells made of?
Molecules.
What are molecules made of?
Atoms.
What are atoms made of?
Sub-atomic particles.
What are subatomic particles made of?
Energy!
You and I are pure energy-light in its most beautiful and intelligent configuration. Energy that is constantly changing beneath the surface and you control it all with your powerful mind.
You are one big stellar and powerful Human Being.
If you could see yourself under a powerful electron microscope and conduct other experiments on yourself, you would see that you are made up of a cluster of ever-changing energy in the form of electrons, neutrons, photons and so on.
So is everything else around you. Quantum physics tells us that it is the act of observing an object that causes it to be there where and how we observe it.
An object does not exist independently of its observer! So, as you can see, your observation, your attention to something, and your intention, literally creates that thing.
This is scientific and proven.
Your world is made of spirit, mind and body.
Each of those three, spirit, mind and body, has a function that is unique to it and not shared with the other. What you see with your eyes and experience with your body is the physical world, which we shall call Body. Body is an effect, created by a cause.
This cause is Thought.
Body cannot create. It can only experience and be experienced … that is its unique function. Thought cannot experience … it can only make up, create and interpret. It needs a world of relativity (the physical world, Body) to experience itself.
Spirit is All That Is, that which gives Life to Thought and Body.
Body has no power to create, although it gives the illusion of power to do so. This illusion is the cause of much frustration. Body is purely an effect and has no power to cause or create.
The key with all of this information is how do you learn to see the universe differently than you do now so that you can manifest everything you truly desire.

Filer’s Files #38 – 2014 Missouri UFO Investigation - PART I
Filer’s Files #38 – 2014 Missouri UFO Investigation - PART I
Craft above Lee’s Summit, Missouri on Sunday September 14, 2014, at 12:29 pm
In special reports, this week’s files cover:
Alien Voices Break into Two NASA Missions,Islamic State Beheads Journalist,An Abductee Letter, and Missouri UFO Sighting Update.
Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over: Arizona, California, Florida, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oregon, South Carolina, and Tennessee.
Sightings of UFOs were also reported in: Australia, Canada, India, New Zealand, Spain, and in England in the United Kingdom.
The Filer Research Institute feels the scientific study of UFOs is for the benefit of humankind and is an important endeavor. The weekly intelligence report provides you with information on the latest sightings and UFO news that you need to understand the world situation. The purpose of these files is to report the UFO eyewitness and photo/video evidence that occurs on a daily basis around the world and in space. These Files assume that extraterrestrial intelligent life not only exists, but my hypothesis is that the over a thousand UFOs reported each month represent technologically advanced spacecraft conducting surveillance of Earth. I personally became interested in UFOs when London Control ordered me to intercept one over England while flying for the US Air Force and Prince Phillip told me of his personal interest in UFOs. The US Air Force investigated UFOs for more than twenty years under Project Blue Book; and I continue this advanced research. I believe the God of the universe has spread life throughout the cosmos and UFO’s are visiting us in ever-increasing numbers. Forward these files to your friends and neighbors.
Special Reports
If we down at least one UFO we’ll be facing an interstellar war – Former Defense Minister of Canada
— Our guest today is the Honorable Paul Hellyer, former minister of Defense of Canada, and he believes that life forms from space are present on Earth. It’s great to have you on our show. Why do you say that UFOs are as real as airplanes flying over our heads?
SS:You’ve mentioned military technology and swapping technologies and barters in-between aliens and people in American government. I want to ask you as a former minister of Defense of Canada – is interstellar war a possibility? Should we be creating a Star Wars force to defend ourselves from possible invasion or something like that?
PH: I think it’s a possibility, but it’s a possibility especially if we shoot down every UFO that comes into our airspace without asking who they are and what they want. Right from the beginning we started scrambling planes, trying to shoot them down, but their technology was superior enough that we weren’t able to get away with it, certainly not for a long while. During that period of time they could have taken us over without any trouble if they wanted to, so I think, rather than developing our own Star Wars to protect ourselves against them, we should work with the benign species that are of a vast majority and work together, and rely largely on them, of course, and cooperate, so that we would be contributing something at the same time; I don’t think there’s any point in us developing a galactic force that would tempt us to ride on our own and get into mischief, which is one of the things that some of them are concerned about.
SS:Sophie Shevardnadze
SS: Asks what do you expect to happen if people start to believe in alien existence on Earth? Things are definitely going to change: our lives aren’t going to be the same anymore.
PH: I hope that’s the case. I am all for full disclosure, and I’m going to push very hard for full disclosure in the book I’m writing, to give some reasons for it, things that we really have to know and have a right to know. Our future as a species, and here I mean all of the species in the world, am potentially at risk if we don’t figure what’s going on and work together to try and make life more amenable for all of us, and to work with our neighbors from other planets as well. http://rt.com/shows/sophieco/137959-anadaminister-defense-ufo/
F-15 Crashes Mysteriously
BOSTON (AP)— Lt. Col. Morris ‘‘Moose’’ Fontenot Jr., was the pilot killed in the crash of an F-15 jet on August 29, 2014 in the remote Virginia mountains. It is not known what caused the crash, which left a deep crater and a large debris field in a heavily wooded area adjacent to a mountain in the George Washington National Forest. He was a decorated combat veteran with 17 years of experience flying the planes. He joined the Massachusetts Air National Guard in February and had been serving with the 104th Fighter Wing as the inspector general and an F-15 instructor pilot. Fontenot was flying at 30,000 to 40,000 feet in the single-seat plane to New Orleans for a radar system upgrade when he crashed. Officials say he reported an in-flight emergency before losing radio contact. The aircraft allegedly nose dived into the ground and the pilot did not eject. Investigation into the cause of the crash is expected to take several weeks. Peter Davenport told me a triangular UFO was seen in the area at the time of the crash. Thanks to the Boston Globe and Peter Davenport.
Hitler’s Crashed UFO
Czernica, Germany – Ken Pfeifer reports, “A multicolored ball or globe-shaped UFO was seen to fall in a field in the summer 1937 that is now territory of Poland.” The field belonged to Eva Braun’s parents whose daughter was the future mistress of Adolph Hitler. The area was cordoned off by SS-troops and the crashed disk was transported to the Hirschberg SS Base and kept under very strong guard and super top security.
The disk was 7.6 meters in diameter and 3.8 meters high. It consisted of a large “overwhelming” dome, encircled by a narrow outer rim, and smaller flat dome on the bottom with a flat lower section. The craft had six oval-shaped structures resembling portholes but not transparent, or devices that radiated some type of light, located near the base of the upper dome. On the lower surface of the outer rim the craft had 12 lights. The color of the disk was a dull metal gray. There was an insignia on the dome resembling the letter “T” with two props on its sides. The entrance into the disk was found on the top of the upper dome. “Inside the circular cabin were three small seats, there were control panels around the dome and three alien beings were found: one was dead. One of the live aliens died soon after the crash, and the second live alien remained in custody for about 1.5 months and then died. The aliens were small about 0.9-1.0m in height, with large hairless pear-shaped heads, small dystrophic looking bodies, and long narrow hands with four fingers, grayish skin and large dark slanted eyes.”
The disk was removed to “Der Riese” a more secured underground location in the nearby Gory Sowie mountains. This complex had an extensive network of underground hangars, and a research laboratory. Two dead aliens and the living extraterrestrial were moved into this complex. The alien desperately asked the medical doctors for help, but died from an unknown illness in a month.”
“Allegedly the origin of the crashed craft was the double star system RA known on earth as 78 mu-1, Cygni, 73.1 light years in distance. The surviving alien claimed they had built underground bases in the polar region of the Canada. The alien informed the Germans that the crashed was caused by some kind of technical malfunction. Adolph Hitler, Werner Von Braun and Air Marshall Hermann Goring inspected the crashed disk.
The general shape of the disk resembled that of a German soldier’s helmet with a small protrusion on the bottom.”
The alien technology was extremely sophisticated and difficult to understand. The disc indeed inspired some Nazi scientists to construct different models of disc-shaped planes. Near the end of the war with Soviet troops approaching the complex was blown up. NOTE: The above image is a rendering. Thanks to Ken Pfeifer MUFON NJ www.worldufophotos.org
ISS Over Peru With UFOs
At 3:45 pm, I was at my home, watching the HD Earth viewing camera from the ISS on September 12, 2014, and the objects were immediately noticeable. I did not know exactly what the objects were, just that I had never seen them before. I focused on the screen, and saw unknowns made a screen shot, as the objects were already recessing away into the darkness. I quickly showed the screen to my oldest son.
The ISS had just passed over the southern tip of Peru and was out over the Atlantic. The camera had been cutting in and out, and when it came back on, the objects were on-screen. I did a quick screen capture. There is one disc that is readily visible, with a half-circle of five, fainter discs and possibly one more off to the right of the half-circle. All the objects appear to have domes. The discs did not remain visible more than 15 seconds, as they slowly faded back away from the ISS, and never broke the formation they were in when sighted. SCW
Missouri Close Encounter With Acre-Sized UFO Leaves Three Witnesses Baffled
Joplin – Margie Kay Missouri Mutual UFO Network Assistant State Director and Star Team Investigator Larry Jordan reports they interviewed witnesses and examined sites on July 13, 2014, where three credible witnesses saw a UFO and had strange experiences.
Retired airline pilot Barry Powell, Joplin Globe Technical Operations Manager and retired policeman John Cruzan and health technician Traci Cruzan of south Joplin, Missouri had a close encounter with an Unidentified flying object on the evening of July 8, 2014. On July 8 at 9:15 p.m. Barry Powell was walking his dog in front of his house when he noticed a quarter-sized object with orange lights in the sky north of his location. As the object approached from a high altitude to a low altitude on a straight-line trajectory Barry realized that it was no standard aircraft. The object was very large, teardrop in shape with multiple orange, blue, and yellow lights underneath.
As John Cruzan and his wife Traci rounded the corner in their Jeep, Powell flagged them down. The two jumped out of their vehicle just as the object was flying an estimated 300′ or less overhead. The three witnesses said that the object was one acre in size as big as a football field. They said that there was absolutely no sound or vibration coming from the object whatsoever and that this concerned them.
Powell said “I know what different aircraft sound like and there should have been an engine sound but there was none. And what was keeping that thing in the air? There were no wings or tail and it was flying too slow to be airborne.”

The witnesses all said they felt like the situation was surreal. Barry Powell said that there was no sound in the area as he watched the object overhead, yet John Cruzan heard Powell’s dog barking at the object. The neighborhood dogs all barked at the object as it flew over the homes in the area.
The three witnesses watched the object go down behind trees and thought that it may have landed in a nearby cow pasture. They jumped in the Jeep and raced to the field which is approximately one mile away from their homes. As the three pulled to the side of the road next the vehicle’s warning beep started to go off. There were no doors open to cause the sound. John shone a large bright flashlight into the field, although the light was on it did not project the light into the field. He had a difficult time getting the Jeep in to gear, which never happened before. Finally, he got the jeep to move on, then turned around but when they arrived at the same spot the vehicle’s warning beep again went off and the flashlight although it appeared on would not penetrate the darkness. The next day, the radio’s presets were all gone.
Investigators found anomalous Electro-magnetic Field readings on the ground at the site as well as the top of the Cruzan’s vehicle. Mr. Cruzan received a large burn on his right arm at the UFO sighting location. On August 18 Mr. Cruzan stated that he had recently seen a physician about the burn on his arm that appeared right after the UFO sighting. The Doctor said that the injury was consistent with a burn caused by a laser. Mr. Cruzan also stated that he was very ill for three weeks after the encounter, but that he had been feeling better for the past week. Doctors could not explain the illness and said that he did not have a virus. His wife also had some burns and ill effects.
The three witnesses decided to go public in an effort to get answers to what they saw. Missouri MUFON requests that any other witnesses to this event or similar events contact Margie Kay at 816-833-1602 or margiekay06@yahoo.com. Media may contact Margie. The witness, Margie and I discussed the case on the Jeff Rense Radio Program on Sept 16.
Ebola Outbreak Spreading
(Health Day News) — The magnitude of the Ebola outbreak in West Africa is far greater than the current statistics indicate, officials from the World Health Organization (WHO) said Friday. Patients are flooding treatment centers that have just opened, and the recorded case and death tolls may “vastly underestimate the magnitude of the outbreak!” said WHO spokesman Gregory Hartl, The Associated Press reported, an 80-bed Ebola treatment center that recently opened in Liberia’s capital filled up immediately.
The latest WHO figures peg the death toll at over 2,000 confirmed deaths; with cases in Guinea, Liberia, Sierra Leone and Nigeria. It is apparent there is little to slow the growth of the disease particularly in heavy populated areas. Three thousand US troops are being deployed to help fight the disease.
To give you an idea of the potential of disease, the 1919, Spanish Flu infected 500 million people across the world, and killed 50 to 100 million—three to five percent of the world’s population—making it one of the deadliest natural disasters in human history. This new strain of Ebola virus could spread from West Africa to many of the World’s countries in a similar manner.
A new model by Oxford University, published in the journal eLife assumes that Ebola’s fruit bats could spread the disease to humans through the dense forest that spans 22 countries marked in red.
Several species of fruit bats are suspected — though not confirmed — to carry Ebola. Unlike humans and other animals who are likely to die from an Ebola infection, bats can carry the disease and infect other bats and animals, such as monkeys and rodents that will likely spread to heavily populated cities and countries creating a great threat to the world’s population.
Medical teams struggling to curb Ebola in Africa been discouraging bush meat consumption, believed to have caused the outbreak, but some rural communities dependent on the meat for protein are determined to continue their traditional hunting practices. Meat from wild animals such as fruit bats, antelope, and rodents are thought to carry the Ebola Virus and started its spread. It is still unclear why the Ebola virus crossed from its animal hosts to humans. Generations have eaten bats without infection. The epicenter of the disease is Guinea where are bats are still being eaten in remote villages despite the risks. “Funerals are where a lot of cases are being contracted.
President Barack Obama announced Sunday he plans to send some 3000 U.S. military assets to Africa in an attempt to stem the outbreak as the virus mutates:
Counter Attacks on the Islamic State
BAGHDAD (Reuters) – Iraqi forces launched an intense military operation against Islamic State insurgents in three cities in central Iraq on Wednesday, fighting to regain control of lost ground, security sources said. -The offensives in Ramadi, Falluja and Haditha in the western province of Anbar started before dawn, security sources in the three cities said.
Sunni tribes revolted in these areas in late 2013 when Iraq’s former prime minister Nuri al-Maliki moved his forces into the cities to suppress a year-long anti-government protest movement. Islamic State insurgents then entered the cities and became the dominate force over the course of several months’ fighting against the Shi’ite-led government.
Heavy fighting erupted on Tuesday between Kurdish Peshmerga forces and militants from the Islamic State group near Khazer, 24 miles from the northern city of Irbil in Iraq’s largely autonomous Kurdish region. Peshmerga forces claimed they had retaken some Christian towns where women had been raped and killed.
The Islamic State websites had a video showing the beheading of British aid worker David Haines, who was abducted in Syria last year, and British Prime Minister David Cameron condemned his slaying as “an act of pure evil.” “We will do everything in our power to hunt down these murderers and ensure they face justice, however long it takes,” Cameron said. His killer says in the video that Haines was paying the price for Britain’s decision to supply weapons to Kurdish Peshmerga fighters. Haines is the third Westerner beheaded in recent weeks by the Islamic State group, which has seized vast swaths of territory in Syria and Iraq.
The Islamic State group has taken over large sections of Syria and Iraq, and controls as many as 11 oil fields in both countries. It is selling oil and other goods through generations-old smuggling networks under the noses of some of the same governments it is fighting: Kurdish-controlled northern Iraq, Turkey and Jordan. The group also has earned hundreds of millions of dollars from smuggling antiquities out of Iraq to be sold in Turkey, al-Khatteeb said, and millions more from human trafficking by selling women and children as sex slaves.
Other revenue comes from extortion payments, ransom from kidnapped hostages, and outright theft of all manner of materials from the towns the Islamic State group has seized, analysts say.”It’s cash-raising activities resemble those of a mafia-like organization,” a U.S. intelligence official said. “They are well-organized, systematic and enforced through intimidation and violence.” the group imposes “taxes” on nearly every facet of economic activity, threatening death for those unwilling to pay, reaping $8 million a month from extortion in Mosul alone. ISIS grabbed millions of dollars in cash from banks as they captured towns. Four French and two Spanish journalists held hostage by Islamic State extremists were freed after their governments paid multimillion-dollar ransoms.
The Islamic State, or ISIS, may be losing its grip on some of Iraq’s oil infrastructure. After months of capturing oil fields, pumping stations and refineries across northern Iraq, ISIS has recently ceded some control amid U.S. airstrikes and heavy fighting from Iraqi and Kurdish forces. The situation is in flux right now,” Robert Perkins, a senior oil writer at Platts, a commodity news service, said in a Thursday interview. At Platt’s latest count, ISIS held about 72,000 barrels a day of Iraqi oil capacity from six wells.
The map of Iraq shows where the country’s critical oil infrastructure overlaps with areas under control of the Islamic State, or ISIS. Platts
The illicit oil operations are thought to earn the group more than $1 million a day. ISIS now fully controls about 18 cities and surrounding areas in northern Iraq holding 17 percent of Iraq’s oil reserves.
The separatist Kurdistan Regional Government in the north is fighting to hold the vast majority of Iraq’s reserves. Various countries are flying in weapons and an A-10 squadron may be deployed to provide close air support..
So far, ISIS militants haven’t crossed into the predominately Shingiite southern oil region, as a result, the country’s overall monthly output hasn’t completely nosedived. According to the International Energy Agency, Iraq’s production dropped to 3.1 million barrels a day in July, compared to a peak of 3.6 million barrels a day in February.
ISIS militants pushed past Baiji toward Tikrit, where they captured at least four oil fields, including Ajeel, one of the area’s most productive fields. Recent reports indicate that ISIS has since lost its grip on the Ajeel oil field after a Kurdish-led advance.
Kurdish troops called Peshmerga fighters with air support began pushing back against the ISIS intrusion in their region. Interestingly the Kurdish troops have female units that fight alongside the men even in the front lines. In the fighting force, as many as 40 percent are women, who undergo the same combat training as men. Gender equality is a fundamental feature of the Peshmerga units. Peshmerga fighter Ozlem and other women who were part of recent battles say they took special pleasure in fighting the notorious radicals whose barbarism, especially towards women, has left a beheaded children and atrocities in every town they have taken.
“They’re the enemy of women, but not only women,” Ozlem said. “They’re the enemy of the entire region and entire world.” Yet even civilians are so disturbed by ISIS—they are raping women, degrading the value of women, brutally killing people—they want to do something to stop them.” For the next 76 hours, Ozlem along with the rest of the Kurdish forces, battled the militants for control of the town, the women participating alongside the men in combat.
In firefights with bearded, black-clad men, she came close enough to notice they were fighting in sandals and seemed apparently unconcerned with death. “In clashes with other enemies, soldiers defended themselves, because life was important to them,” Ozlem said. “You usually lay down and shoot from the ground or from behind something. They were standing up — exposed — and shooting.” Adding to their inspiration is a widely held rumor that the radical fighters believe that if killed by a woman they will not go to paradise. Though disputed by experts, it is the gospel among the women of Colonel Rashid’s regiment. http://mashable.com/2014/09/12/pkk-women-fighters-battling-isis/
Australia will prepare up to eight F/A18 combat aircraft, an E-7A Wedgetail Early Warning and Control aircraft and a KC-30A Tanker and Transport aircraft to be deployed to the United Arab Emirates to support the fighting.
The 400 air force personnel and 200 others in the contingent could be deployed this week.
The statement said special operations personnel who could assist Iraq’s security forces were being prepared also, but combat troops were not being deployed. Several Arab countries have also offered to conduct air strikes against ISIS. http://www.ibtimes.com/

United States UFO Sightings
Arizona Lights
Mc Neal – At 9:08 PM, my mom and I were in our barn feeding the horses for the night on September 9, 2014. I was out back when I heard a rumbling, like jets flying over. There was a full moon rising in the east above the horizon. I looked up to the west to where I heard the plane and saw strange red lights moving southeast. It had five lights in a boomerang pattern with one on the nose and two more on each side. If it was a plane, it was the biggest plane I’ve ever seen; five times bigger than large airliners. There were two jet fighters tailing slightly behind the tips of its wings. They moved independently from the red lights which stayed together and they were white/ yellow in color. As the object and jets passed over I could see the jets standard blinking aircraft lights until they faded to the SE. At 9:20 PM, I saw two jet fighters returning alone going NW fast.

California Launch
Los Banos— I was standing in my front yard on September 12, 2014, and I saw something in the western horizon. I watched and waited to see what direction it would go. There was no sound and no blinking lights. I was not moving horizontally either. I kept watching this thing as it continued to climb up towards the the one wispy cloud.
The object was emitting a reddish-orange light and was cylindrical to almost rocket shaped, like a space capsule. I watched it as it kept going up and up and finally disappeared in the sky. It went straight up and the whole thing only lasted about a minute or so. It happened a 3:55 am. This is the 3rd sight of this object I have seen in the last 30 days. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Florida Lights
Panama City— On September 9, 2014, on the balcony of our condo about 10:30 PM, my partner and I noticed a light over the ocean. The object was too far away to determine its shape, but it was blinking in a wild pattern. The object moved very quickly across the sky moving towards us, and within a minute it disappeared. A few seconds later it was on the other side of the sky and then vanished. As we scanned the sky to find the object, I discovered an apparently different object floating 500 feet high just about two condos down the beach. I locked onto it with binoculars and it was such a bright color, it didn’t look real. We determined it was a reddish-orange pulsating cylinder that ascended above the condo. It made my heart pound and we couldn’t stop watching. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Illinois Cylinder
Ottawa – I saw this in the sky over Ottawa on September 6 and took a picture. What is it.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Kentucky Disk
Florence– I was at a football game on September 14, 2014,.and took this photo.
Later I found the disc in the photo. I was not looking for it. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Maryland Triangle of Lights
The witness called and reported his sighting about two hours after it occurred on August 30, 2014. One of the witnesses is a commercial airline pilot who had taken his fiancé to the hospital. When leaving the hospital he saw a triangular object to the north. The object had four lights “equidistant” and one light in the center. The lights were orange or “lava” colored and were all the same size. The other witness to the sighting snapped a photo with his cell phone. The cell photo clearly shows the object, but the center light does not show up. The witness said that the object was flying east and executed a roll as it vanished. The silent object was visible for about 35 seconds. The witness is a commercial airline pilot and was convinced that this was no “ordinary” object. Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com
Missouri Lights
Independence – I have been checking the skies in the wee hours because I had noticed triangular weird aircraft around 3:30 am, on July 27, 2014. I saw unusual low flying craft on two Fridays. I took photos which show weird craft and there are strange lines throughout the pictures showing hieroglyph like patterns. I don’t specifically remember taking the photo but found it a few weeks later. It was taken on a Sony dsc-wx50 at 7x zoom. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Lee’s Summit — On Sunday September 14, 2014, at 12:29 pm, I saw a new craft in the sky. I noticed a momentary bright flash in the sky and took my camera and telephoto out to see if I could view anything. I noticed what at first seemed to be a white bird in the distance so I decided to take some photos. The white object did not behave like a bird or an airplane. I cropped and edited them for better detail. The direction of travel was ESE from Blue Springs Lake. The clarity improved as the images were taken and the final one is the clearest and larger. The craft flew at an altitude of 1400 feet descending at 53 mph, much too slow for an aircraft. A dark triangular craft crossed the path of the white object. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Nevada Light
I woke up around 5:30 am, and noticed a round ball in the sky that looked similar to moon but it had rays of light beaming down from the object. One of the rays blinked and that is what caught my attention.
I thought it was a plane, but then noticed something unusual. I ran to get my phone to record by the time I got back to the object; the light was slowly ascending into the object while both light and object simultaneously disappeared. Thanks to MUFON CMS
New Jersey Jellyfish
Sewell, Washington Twp — On August 14, 2014 about 8:30 AM, a storm was approaching when I walked out and picked a tomato off a patio plant and saw a large orange/red glowing object. It looked like “a jellyfish on fire” and came from over the top of my neighbor’s roof moving southeast through our backyard. It was silent with no smell. It was translucent ember with fire inside with a clear edge to it. I could see through it, if it weren’t for all that fire inside. It looked like a jellyfish six feet off the ground moving through the backyard. I was only 10 feet away. It was 8 feet tall by 5 feet wide and moved at a fast walk. I screamed for my husband yelling, “Do you see it?” My husband saw a bright orange glow, but not the object itself.
I then saw it climbing higher in the sky. I wasn’t scared. Our next-door neighbor saw a bright orange glow. My husband took a picture with his cell phone similar to the above photo taken on June 11, 2014 at Perry Sound, Canada. Note; This case is being investigated by Chief Investigator Ken Pfeifer of MUFON New Jersey.
New Mexico Orb
Albuquerque — I heard my Dad yell to come outside and look at a strange shape in the sky on September 13, 2014. When I went out, I saw my neighbor’s in the street watching the strange craft.
At first I thought it was a hot-air balloon but it didn’t move at all and was well over a mile high. I grabbed my camera and binoculars. When I came out I noticed it was no longer orange, but a blue white. It no longer glowed and I captured some footage on an HD camera. This wasn’t a balloon because there was no evidence of flame. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Oregon Lights
Milwaukee— I saw four lights in a row on September 11, 2014. They were just hovering and then one blinked out.
They changed position and then one after another they blinked out. I just took these pictures a few seconds apart.
Note: I did some enhancements of the above photos (contrast and brightness adjusted).
Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com
South Carolina Antennas
Charleston — I was on US Airways flight 3385 from Washington, DC to ten minutes out from Charleston on September 9, 2014. At approximately 10 Charleston, I saw off to the left side and below two very large black antennas rising from two different clouds. They appeared to be single pole antenna without motion rising 500 feet from the top of the cloud. I could clearly see below the cloud that it was not land based which would have been impossible at this height. I waited to be the last passenger off of the plane and I asked the pilot if he saw two antennas protruding from the clouds off the left side on the plane. His reply: “There were two more off to the right side and we have no idea what they were. He had no explanation for the objects The aircraft was in descent to Charleston Airport at the time of the sighting. Flight tracking indicates that the aircraft was at 14,000 feet altitude at about 10:50 AM. Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com
Tennessee Landing
Summertown— When walking through a field on our property the morning of Sunday, September 7, 2014, the circles appeared sometime between 6:30 p.m. Friday, September 5, 2014 and 10:30 a.m. on Sunday, September 7, 2014.
There are eight circles 8 feet in circumference and seven circles 13 feet in circumference and several half circles of the same size. The circles were in the lower of two fields close to a creek. The field that was at a higher elevation and had power lines overhead was not touched. The vegetation does not appear to be damaged and wasn’t crushed or uprooted. The circles appear as dark very fine powder like material without an odor. The substance can be brushed off the vegetation and samples were collected. On Wednesday the circles looked lighter. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Worldwide UFO Reports
Australia UFO
Melbourne– The Herald Sun reports an object with flashing red, green and blue lights was spotted hovering on September 11, 2014. Residents reported seeing the light over Carnegie for more than two hours. “It’s really weird,” Toni Koromilas said taking a video of the flashing lights from her sister’s Carnegie home. “Someone said it could be a helicopter but it’s not moving, it’s been there for an hour now. “We could be way off track, it could just be a plane, but it’s bizarre.” The strange lights were likely a gyrocopter with LED lights, says Perry Vlahos. Ami Hasson said on his Facebook page that he observed the lights for 2.5 hours above Carnegie. “It was moving around in different directions and it looked like a ball from a distance but once I went out to film it and zoomed in and I was amazed by it.” He wrote,“It looked like it had a dark square main body with no lights on it but with around 4-6 colorful arms, it reminded me of an octopus. I think that we had visitors.”
Perry Vlahos, from the Astronomical Society of Victoria says, “A few weeks ago over Carnegie I saw a gyrocopter that someone is flying and outfitted with LED lights to make it a little more impressive.” Melbourne gets an average one UFO sighting a week. http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/victoria/ufo-spotted-hovering-over-melbourne
Canada Radio
I am from India and my name is Babhru and I’m staying in Canada for my commercial pilot training. A few days ago on September 10, 2014, when I was doing my cross country flight around 4:45 pm, I experienced something weird with my radio com. It was flickering and automatic going on and off. I couldn’t communicate or listen to any aircraft for 12 seconds and after 12 seconds everything became normal liked nothing happened. I do not know what it was but from what I have seen in the movies it looked like it was something related to a UFO to me. I have video of the incident.
India Glowing Object
Bangalore — Kiran Mehendale writes, at 8:30 pm, on September 9, 2014, I saw an orange glowing object moving northeast of my place headed towards Bengaluru International Airport. Tture it. It was flying silently at almost the pace of an aircraft. I am sure that airport authorities also would have noticed it. There was no trail to the light and it was probably about 100+ feet under the monsoon clouds for about a minute. It passed above my home until I lost it because of buildings. Thanks to John Hayes www.UFOinfo.comhere was a single orange light moving steadily. Unfortunately I did not have my camera to cap
New Zealand Object
Raglan – I’m on holiday on the North Island of traveling down to Raglan on a very winding steep road when we decided to stop about half way down to take a few photos of the mountain. Mum was with me taking photos at the same time, we took several to the left, right and the middle. That night when reviewing the photos to post on Facebook I noticed an object on the picture but remember that there was no helicopter or aircraft around. We reviewed mum’s photos and there’s nothing like this on hers. The object looks like it has a trail behind it. Thanks to Wendy Baines.
Portugal Disk
Coimbra –I wanted to take a photo of a tree in the botanical garden in Coimbra and accidentally photographed this UFO on September 13, 2014. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Spain Disc
Pamplona— In the Navarra Mountains I was enjoying the peace and quiet and the view on September 7, 2014. Playing back the photos it raised my suspicions. I didn’t see it when taking several snaps.
I don’t know what it is or why I have captured it on my Ipad. Suddenly it was there, on one image. Looking at the images later with my wife, we were surprised to see what had actually been captured. I saw nothing at the time. Thanks to MUFON CMS
UK Light and Disc
London — I was lying in bed when I noticed a light floating through the sky and it was really bright so I quickly jumped up and took pictures and recorded it! I was excited as I knew it was different!
I know the difference between planes and helicopters and this object was definitely not either of them or a star or a meteorite or a satellite! I lost sight of the object when it flew behind the house next door. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Newton, Devon Abbot – I took this photo on 31 August 2014, at 3:02 PM GMT at Newton Abbot Devon UK. This object definitely has structure to it. Where are they coming from? If they are flying over every city and town in the world, then there are a lot of aliens. Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com

(N.Morgan) The debate over what UFOs are and what they represent is an ongoing debate, that could go either way. In the video below, the governor of Nevada has an interesting take on UFOs, chemtrails, and other conspiracies. Nevada Governor.. The guy talks so incredibly real about zombies and UFOs that I just LOVE him I’ll save you some time. Are they already here, attacking? Using holograms like fake planes that are actual rockets using holograms to fake the wings spraying ‘smaller than nano bot (is it ‘frodo bot that is smaller?), metals in our skies like a carpet. Wait until you find out just who the guy is talking about the zombie disaster and FEMA.
There are odd things in the sky as of late. What with all the chem trails dropping metals into the atmosphere, I got to thinking about nano technology and how you can’t see them but they ‘can’ construct themselves, all together, to form something else, like a machine of warfare, or an actual infectious disease that makes you ‘ACT LIKE A ZOMBIE’ against your own free will.
Just a thought.. but these kind of video’s seem to imply that someone else, or a group of them, just may have implemented that thought into reality. Eyes open, and mind, too. Think outside the mall and the dance club.
In Papua New Guinea, a type of violence usually committed against women has increasingly targeted men: attacks on people accused of practicing witchcraft.
Witchcraft accusations and the subsequent attacks on the accused have plagued communities in Papua New Guinea for years. Now, in a new report, anthropologist Dan Jorgensen of the University of Western Ontario described seven cases that involved the killings, beatings and gruesome torture of male victims.
The cases, which occurred near the village of Telefomin, may hold clues to the roots of violence, Jorgensen said.
“The temptation is to blame [the witchcraft-related violence] on the culture” and the backwardness of the beliefs that are allegedly causing all this trouble, Jorgensen told Live Science. “And I actually think it is actually a false lead.”
The beginning
The first report of such attacks near Telefomin appeared in 2009 in the local paper The National, which described how a group of men was “tortured with weapons — including iron rods — before being hacked to death.”
In the new report, Jorgensen described six cases of male victims between ages 35 and 65, and one case of an attack on a 16-year-old boy. Three of the victims were killed in the attacks.
One of the survivors, Thomas (not his real name), a deacon in his 60s from the nearby village of Talavip, was passing through that area with his two sons when he was assaulted.(Jorgensen used pseudonyms for all the victims mentioned in the report to protect their identities.)
“They beat me and my sons with iron rods and covered me with [oil],” Thomas told Jorgensen. “One of them lit a match and almost killed me, but someone told him that if he did, he would die, too, so they didn’t set fire to me.”
Violence related to witchcraft and sorcery allegations in Papua New Guinea has attracted media attention in the last decade, and the number of such reports increased fivefold between 2000 and 2006, Jorgensen wrote in the report. (Witchcraft is generally believed to result from inherent powers, whereas it is believed that sorcery can be learned, and practiced by anyone with the right knowledge.)
The violence has even acquired its own acronym: SRK, for “sorcery-related killing.” In February 2013, a young mother was publically tortured and burned alive; in April 2013, a retired female schoolteacher was tortured and publically beheaded. The government reacted by introducing legislation to punish the perpetrators of such crimes.
But the violence against men in Telefomin may not stem from old beliefs about witches, Jorgensen wrote in the report. In the recent cases, the perpetrators are believed to be a group of young men who dropped out of school and remain unemployed. The locals refer to these men as “the Boys.”
A conflict between the Boys and the community — triggered by the lack of educational or economic opportunities for these men, and likely fueled by their drug use — may instead be the real reason behind the attacks.
Drugs, lack of education and impunity
The Boys may be jealous of other men in the community who are more successful, and may feel rage against their own community because of their own disadvantaged social and economic situations, Jorgensen said.
Many young people from Telefomin have been successful in getting their education and pursuing careers, but “these guys are basically [school] dropouts,” he said.
Increased costs might explain why the Boys’ didn’t pursue education, as the fees for attending the local high school increased over time, Jorgensen said. In 2004, when he was visiting the area, the school fees had risen so high that parents started choosing which of their kids would go to high school. “That basically shut the door for a lot of these guys,” he said, and there could be resentment about that.
Moreover, some villagers told Jorgensen that prior to the attacks, the Boys used marijuana and drank tea made from a plant called the angel’s trumpet. The drink “is a very powerful hallucinogen, that often produces violent fantasies and reactions,” he said.
The lack of response from the local police to the attacks also creates the impression of impunity, which exacerbates the issue of violence even more. “As villagers say, the attacks took place under the noses of two local policemen and the district administration,” Jorgensen wrote in the report.
It is not completely clear why the police did not take action to counteract those incidents, he said. The police sometimes say they feel outnumbered, while some villagers have suggested that the police were bribed to keep silent, he said.
When attempting to explain witchcraft-related violence, “the thing to look for is the nature of social and economic relationships between the various people involved,” Jorgensen said. – Live Science
Riverside, CA: On 9/22/14 Monday night about 9:30 PM from the SE direction I saw a ufo. I was sitting in my chair chanting (Mantra Meditation). From the South direction moving East towards where I was sitting a bright white round light moving slow. From the round bright light come out a dark blue edges on each side with small red lights It was very beautiful. The object did not move for about 15-20 sec. There was no noise. It did not fly off into the distance. It disappeared into doorway in the sky and it was gone. When I first saw this glowing object I thought its just like the other one I see. But this is the first time I saw a blue ufo coming out of the glowing bright white light. I was amazed to see its beauty. – MUFON CMS
UK Defence Intelligence suggests witnesses may have been exposed to UFO radiation
A witness to the UK’s most famous UFO sighting says he may be suffering from the effects of radiation, and in a recent press release, points out that a UK Defence Intelligence (DI) report suggests that he may have been exposed to UFO radiation. Meanwhile, the U.S. Air Force says they have lost his service and medical records from that time.
john-burroughsIt was reported this week that the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) has admitted that they will be releasing more UFO files, despite having said that they had already released all of their UFO files. This current revelation has been due to the efforts of John Burroughs, a military witness to the UK’s most famous UFO sighting.
Burroughs says he has been seeking official answers as to what he might have experienced that night in December, 1980 when he and others witnessed a UFO. At the time, Burroughs was a U.S. Air Force security officer stationed at RAF Bentwaters in Suffolk, which, along with nearby RAF Woodbridge, was on lease to the U.S. Air Force.
Since then he has had health problems and suspects that his UFO experience may have contributed to his condition. He says, “I have specific medical symptoms that are considered by some very knowledgeable people to be a fingerprint of a specific kind of radiation.” Read more at Open Minds

UFO mania: An OMG UFO Picture From 1995 Just Released To MUFON - Jerseyville, Illinois
"It was in the late springtime in 1995 I was returning home from a local car show.As i was exiting my car in my driveway I noticed a funnel cloud crossing the field next to our home. there was a lot of popup bad thunderstorms with tornado's ,kind of a outbreak that day.Well I already had camera in hand exiting my car when i decided to just use up the rest of the roll of film from the car show we had been at that day when I started taking pictures of the funnel cloud that did spawn a tornado touchdown just few miles up the rode." "Never saw the objects that I photographed until I got the film back from being developed quite some time later like 6 months to year later.It wasn't until my wife and my sister where going through the rolls of film that she had just gotten developed that we noticed there was something on one of the photos. My sister came to me and asked me what i was trying to photograph in this picture when i told her it was a funnel cloud becoming a tornado that eventually dropped down a few miles away, when she said no not that, the objects in the sky? That is when we discovered I had caught something on film following the storm. Didn't know what it was then and the photo still makes people scratch their head when they look at it today.So if someone can shed light on this photo that would be great because its been a mystery to me for almost 20 years."

If we trip across life that's not of this world, do we blast it or befriend it? What impact would it have on our society?
This was the topic of a two-day symposium held at the John W. Kluge Center of the Library of Congress last week. Several dozen researchers -- astronomers, philosophers, theologians, biologists, historians, and other tweed-jacketed specialists -- opined on what might happen should we find we're not alone.
A lot of the discussion, unsurprisingly, was about discovering life that's intelligent. This prompted a symposium leitmotiv that was dished out repeatedly: when thinking about aliens, beware of anthropocentrism. In other words, don't assume that they will be similar to us ethically, culturally, or cognitively.
Well sure, I can get down with that. I agree that we tend to view everything in the universe through the prism of our own natures. Mind you, I note that the squirrels in my front yard seem to do the same. They're awfully squirrel-centric. That ensures that they attend to activities that are truly important (mostly acorn management). I don't think less of them for that.
Where this leitmotiv became more than a neo-Greek caution against hubris was when it was used to argue that SETI (the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) is fatally flawed. We were told that our hunt for aliens assumes that they are like us. That kind of provincial attitude, it was said, will doom SETI to endless frustration. If we don't think outside our own biological box, we'll fail to find any company in the cosmos.
But wait a minute: That's akin to arguing that the 1976 Viking landers -- with their complex instrumentation for sensing microbial Martians -- were a clear non-starter because they were sensitive to carbon-based metabolism; in other words, life as we know it. Well, that's true, but it was really hard to design experiments that were good at finding life as no-one-knows-it.
Actually, when it comes to SETI experiments, we try not to make assumptions about the aliens' cultural, ethical, or even biological makeup. We don't assume they are similar to us. Rather, we assume that their physics is similar to ours -- that they use radio transmitters or lasers to send information from wherever they are to wherever they need it. That's no more anthropocentric than assuming that -- if aliens use ground transportation -- at least some of it is on wheels.
Anthropocentrism is always a bugaboo, but to say that it might irretrievably cripple our efforts to find evidence for intelligence elsewhere is certainly arguable. So let's consider that SETI experiments are not as myopic as some would aver. The big question then becomes, what happens if we pick up a ping?
First, allow me to dispense with the false, but nonetheless ever-popular idea that the public wouldn't be told. That's goofier than Big Bird, and easily disproved by a cursory reference to SETI's occasional false alarms. This paranoid idea probably derives from the widespread claim that 67 years ago some wayward aliens made a dismaying navigational error, and piloted their craft into the dirt near Roswell, New Mexico. The fact that this event is not the subject of much investigation by research scientists is often explained as the consequence of a government cover-up. The feds don't want you to know about extraterrestrials.
One could make the same argument about the lack of academic interest in leprechauns. Maybe the Irish government is hiding the bodies. I don't find that a compelling argument. But I think the popular notion of secret evidence sparks the mistaken belief that a SETI detection would be hushed up. It won't be.
Of greater relevance to the subject of this symposium -- preparing for discovery -- was what would the signal reveal? What could we learn about the senders' construction or culture?
The most plausible answer is "not much." Just as hearing a rustle in the forest provides precious little information on the flora or fauna that caused it, so too would an alien ping be largely uninformative, at least at first. There might be an accompanying message, but new and different instruments would be required to find it.
What we could learn quickly are a few, mostly astronomical facts, to wit: (1) How far away is their solar system; (2) What type of star do they orbit? (3) The length of their day and their year.
That might be it for a while. And "a while" would be years, at minimum.
If we find intelligent beings elsewhere in our galaxy, you'll not be quickly confronted with complex philosophical problems of understanding their mode of thinking or their biological blueprint -- or even knowing whether they are biological. You won't be misled by anthropocentric thinking, because there will be precious little information about whether they're like us or not. For years, all we'll be able to say is that there's something out there that's at least as technologically competent as we are.

Filer’s Files # 37 – 2014 – UFO Seen near ISS, - PART I
Filer’s Files # 37 – 2014 – UFO Seen near ISS, - PART I
Craft above Passaic, New Jersey on September 3, 2014
Don’t Forget the 13th Anniversary of 9/11
In special reports, this week’s files cover: Major Gordon Cooper and UFOs,
Cigar UFO Seen near Space Station, Congressional Hearing Initiative, Mars Statue, Gateways for the Soul, Encode DNA Project, Islamic State Must Be Defeated,, Clark McClelland and Helium-3. Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over: Alabama, Arizona, California, Florida, Illinois, Louisiana, Maryland, New Jersey, North Carolina, Nevada, Oregon, and Pennsylvania. Sightings of UFOs were also reported in: Australia, Canada, China, Honduras, Mexico, Poland, Portugal, Sahara Desert, and England in the United Kingdom.
The Filer Research Institute feels the scientific study of UFOs is for the benefit of humankind and is an important endeavor. The weekly intelligence report provides you with information on the latest sightings and UFO news that you need to understand the world situation. The purpose of these files is to report the UFO eyewitness and photo/video evidence that occurs on a daily basis around the world and in space. These Files assume that extraterrestrial intelligent life not only exists, but my hypothesis is that the over a thousand UFOs reported each month represent technologically advanced spacecraft conducting surveillance of Earth. I personally became interested in UFOs when London Control ordered me to intercept one over England while flying for the US Air Force and Prince Phillip told me of his personal interest in UFOs. The US Air Force investigated UFOs for more than twenty years under Project Blue Book; and I continue this advanced research. I believe the God of the universe has spread life throughout the cosmos and UFO’s are visiting us in ever-increasing numbers. Forward these files to your friends and neighbors.
Major Gordon Cooper was one of the original Mercury astronauts and the last American to fly in space alone. On May 15, 1963 he blasted into space in a Mercury capsule for a 22-orbit journey around the planet.
In 1978 Major Cooper appeared before the UN General Assembly and asked for “open discussions” on the unidentified spacecraft matter. Cooper says the secrecy started out back in World War II or shortly thereafter.
“I think they thought the public would be frightened by knowing somebody had some vehicles that had so much better performance than anything we had, that maybe it would create panic if the public learned about them.”
“They probably tried hushing it up until they found out more about them. Then as time went on, it just got more embarrassing trying to cover it up.”
Cooper also wrote the following: “As far as I’m concerned there have been far too many unexplained examples of unidentified flying objects to rule out the possibility that some other life form exists out beyond our own world.”
“With the potential for there to be billions of planets out there, it seems pretty arrogant to think God would not have put life on some of them.” Major Cooper also viewed film taken by a crew of U.S. Air Force photographers using three different cameras to film landings during test flights. He describes what he saw on film:
“It was a typical double-inverted lenticular saucer. It had three (landing) gear on it and it put down on the lake bed. They were filming it as it sat there and they filmed it as it lifted up. It appeared to be big enough to have a crew of full-sized people on it.”
Cigar UFO Sighted Near ISS
The cigar UFO is back! On September 2, 2014, the ISS Live Cam captured this image in Earth’s orbit of a cylinder shaped object. This long golden UFO was seen behind the space station last week. The object moves with the space station, matching its speed and orbit. Streetcap1 of YouTube caught this craft near the ISS and it leads us to wonder…are the UFOs near the space station so often because they are invited guests? Meeting aliens in orbit at the space station is an excellent way to hide their existence from the public and other countries. Thanks to ufosightingsdaily.com
Mexico Cylinder – On August 29, 2014, at right is actual full screen photo from Popocatepetl Volcano web-cam archive…not altered in any way. I was looking at a live cam and decide to have a look at its archive photos. I found this one on the 29th that shows a long cigar shaped UFO. This cigar UFO is the same as the one that was recorded entering the mouth of the volcano back in February 21, 2013 and October 26, 2012. Thanks to ufosightingsdaily.com Live camera: http://www.webcamsdemexico.com/webcam-popocatepetl.html
The Congressional Hearing Initiative (CHI) will formally launch on November 5. The DVDs will be shipped on November 1. A substantial media blitz will begin on or about October 29. A tweet/email storm will be directed from PRG’s Fax on Washington website. PRG executive director Stephen Bassett will be lecturing across Europe during September and October and building support for the CHI given that congressional tweets and emails can be sent from anywhere in the world. Approaches to the appropriate congressional committee members will begin on or around November 10. The goal is to obtain a commitment to hold congressional hearings by January 3 and actual hearings by January 31.
Key to the success of the most comprehensive effort ever to get full hearings for the scores of military/agency/political witnesses ready to testify will be the amount and depth of the media coverage from November 1 to January 31 – particularly mainstream news talk shows. Professional, inside Washington press consulting is essential to this outcome, and that is expensive. For those with resources who strongly believe the formal acknowledgement of the ET presence must happen now, this is the time to step forward. The amount needed to maximize this initiative is not great and could mean the difference between success and failure. Want to make history?

Mars Statue
Mars Source image: http://www.nasa.gov/images/content/207023main_vincent-20071220.jpg I found this statue about 3 to 4 years ago, but came across this video talking about it. They colored the statue so that you can see it better. This is a really interesting photo and there is a color version available, but not sure where at the moment. You can clearly make out the Egyptian face, shoulders, hat and body. There are also a lot of other anomalies in this photo, but this one is the best. Cool the discovery is still being passed around. Thanks to ufosightingsdaily.com
Note: The Statue implies that both Mars and Egypt have a similar past. As Mars atmosphere deteriorated the Martians may have chosen to journey to Earth like Noah.
Gateways for the Soul
.
“Gate of the Sun” at Tiahuanaco, Bolivia”
Brett Allen writes, “Gateways of the gods can be found standing alone in every ancient megalithic culture as if an effigy to… something. The Annunaki were the “keepers of the Gateway” and these photos may indeed demonstrate an incredible link to ancient mythology! Even the word Annunaki broken down Anu-god, na -not or negative, ki – the life-force of the soul. Put it all together… gods of the lifeless or soulless= gods of the dead – DJED in Egyptian, with a silent ‘j’ when pronounced… “HeyZeus;” another link to ancient Annunaki gods.
Gates or gateways are said to be obstacles thru which the soul has to pass to get to heaven; as in the Gate of St. Peter.
My photo was captured over reservoirs where graves were disturbed and entire towns were razed.
“As for my theory, do you all realize, right now, the Ukraine is seeing a UFO flap… John Lear and I are right, UFOs, just like ancient mythology tell us, are here for the souls of the dead.” Ufology needs to listen to ancient ‘myth’ and stop thinking “nuts and bolts.” Ancient myth gives us many of the answers, if we’d listen. Problem is we’ve bastardized it all.
This is the incredible Kell’s Irish Pub (Seattle), apparition photo that showed up under IR illumination taken by host Zac Bagans. There are many faces in this apparition.
I found another photo with a similar gate from 1957 taken over the Lake Isabella Reservoir “You tell me… it’s from a haunted ex-funeral parlor called Kell’s Irish Pub. This one’s amazing. It’s amazing so many of these manifestations seem to either posses many faces or even the same one from several angles. I challenge anyone to reproduce this from scratch. Plus you can zoom into it yourself and see the same thing.
The Lake Isabella UFO Photo 1952 and My Great Sacandaga Lake photo 2009, taken during a “ghost gun” episode. “Go to the Light,” the ascension of the soul,” “the thunder gods,” St. Peter’s Gate,” “The war in Heaven over MEN’S SOULS!” Mayan Gods of the Dead, gateways to the underworld (the IR realm?).
The ascension of the soul or going to the light? If you look at this photo notice the under the “light ship” an L shape begins extending to the left into the pink lightning and then down and back thru the lightning again into the rectangle in an L shape. If you don’t see it, look at this Dogon carving and then at the photo and I think you’ll see it. This photo was taken the following day from the first. Although I’ve said it before, I believe these photos now correlated with the 1952 photo, are of incredible importance to Ufology. They prove ancient mythology is ancient fact. Thanks to Brett Allen
Encode DNA Project
The human race has been the subject of severe intrusion, not only within our lives, liberties, and justices, but with our very own unique and precious DNA. It is postulated that over 97% of our so-called “junk DNA” is actual genetic coding of extraterrestrial life forms. This signifies that the “junk DNA” carries the history and family codes of our very own “star essence.” It continues to be debated whether our Divine Blueprint was created by some “Higher Power” or within that of a Petri dish. The bottom line is most of us unknowingly carry the Keys to Eternal Freedom for All within our DNA, and yet we aren’t quite sure how to reach these Keys, commune with them, or bring them to full activating potential.
A few months ago the ENCODE project (acronym for Encyclopedia Of DNA Elements) consisting of 400 scientists in 32 different laboratories studying “junk” DNA released their findings in 30 papers published in several different scientific journals (see Encyclopedia of DNA Elements and Nature ENCODE for more information). The sheer volume of information is amazing, consisting of hundreds of terabytes of data.
The ENCODE project is devoted to making sense of the human genome. The sequence of the human genome was completed in 2000, but it only revealed the order of the individual components, called bases or nucleotides, in the DNA. The human genome is about 3,000,000,000 DNA base pairs long and the function of many of those components is still unknown. Some genes (packets of information in the DNA for making proteins) were known, but that only accounted for about two percent of the human genome. What about the other 98 percent? This became especially relevant when it was discovered that humans, as the most complex organism on the planet, only have about 20,000 genes and they are similar to genes in many other organisms. Scientists knew they had to look elsewhere for the differences in DNA among organisms.
In 2007 the ENCODE project released a series of papers explaining their findings from analyzing just one percent of the human genome (for more information see ‘Junk’ DNA: Evolutionary Discards or God’s Tools?, “Junk” DNA—past, present, and future, part 1 and 2 the scientists involved in the research said, “We are now seeing the majority of the rest of the genome is active to some extent.”1 Fortunately, this prompted more extensive research of the remaining 99 percent of the genome over the last five years.
In the new study, ENCODE estimates that 80 percent of the genome is functional in the sense that it has “specific biochemical activity.” Mark Gerstein, an ENCODE researcher said, “It is like opening a wiring closet and seeing a hairball of wires. We tried to unravel this hairball and make it interpretable.”2
Most of the function is believed to be regulatory. In the simplest terms, the “junk” DNA is telling the genes when to produce their product (the protein) In summary, then, there is a large amount of evidence which suggests, but does not prove, that much DNA in higher organisms is little better than junk. Thanks to en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ModENCODE –
Even Francis Crick the co-founder and co-discoverer of the structure of DNA Nobel Prize Winner stated, ‘An honest man, armed with all the knowledge available to us now, could only state that in some sense, the origin of life appears at the moment to be almost a miracle, so many are the conditions which would have had to have been satisfied to get it going.’
Crick reasoned that life could not have evolved from non-living chemicals under any conceivable earth conditions as claimed by evolution. He felt life did not originate on earth, and suggests a theory called panspermia. That the seeds of life are all through the universe. This concept basically infers that life, DNA, virus, bacteria, bombarded from space aboard meteorites and comets.
Crick proposed, in a book called “Life Itself,” that some form of primordial life was shipped to the earth billions of years ago in spaceships—by supposedly ‘more evolved’ (therefore advanced) alien beings.
Note: Personally, I have seen the alien spaceships and tracked them on radar and have spoken with dozens of people including astronauts and key heads of state who conclude that extraterrestrials visit Earth.
Lee R. Burger is director of paleoanthropolgy unit for research and exploration at the University of Witwatersrand in South Africa in his excellent book “In the Footsteps of Eve” states, “The fossil evidence for modern human origins in the critical time period between 100,000 and 200,000 years ago is, like archaics, frustratingly rare. In fact, the entire fossil evidence of anatomically modern-looking humans from around the world, and over 60,000 years wouldn’t fill a card table.”
Islamic State Must Be Defeated
President Barack Obama at a news conference at the conclusion of the NATO Summit in Wales on Friday stated unequivocally that, “The extremist group calling itself the Islamic State must be dismantled, degraded, and “ultimately defeated.” Obama wants authorization to arm and train moderate rebels in Syria to fight ISIS on the ground. The Islamic State captured large swathes of territory in a summer offensive as the Iraqi army – and Kurdish Peshmerga forces in the self-governing north – have crumbled in the face of its onslaught, massacring Shiites and minority Christians and Yazidis as they advance.
Obama said, “There was unanimous consent among NATO members at the summit that ISIS posed a threat to them and that “action” would need to be taken.” We have a critical role to play in destroying within three yearsthis savage organization. We have to act!” Obama said.
FoxNews.com reports, Arab League nations called Monday for combating Islamic State extremists, acting to join forces against the terror threat. The threat may actually be greater to the Arab governments then to NATO. It’s not clear to what extent the Arab League and western allies are coordinating. The league’s resolution, issued after late-night meetings of Arab foreign ministers a day earlier, doesn’t explicitly back American military action against the group.
Obama is seeking an international coalition to challenge the Islamic State group and has urged nations in the region to get involved. Secretary of State John Kerry will travel to the Middle East to secure the backing of Arab states for an anti-ISIS campaign, while Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel went to Turkey to press that country’s leadership for support. The radical Islamic State group has seized wide swaths of Syria and Iraq and views other Islamist groups as its rivals.
The Arab League resolution calls for immediate measures to combat the group on the political, defense, security and legal levels. The resolution backed the United Nations resolution issued last month that imposed sanctions on a number of the group’s fighters and called on countries to adopt measures to combat terrorism. The council resolution was adopted under Chapter 7 of the U.N. Charter, meaning it can be militarily enforced.
The move comes after the head of the 22-member Arab League urged the group’s members to make a “clear and firm decision for a comprehensive confrontation” with “cancerous and terrorist groups. ”
Obama’s speech on September 10, 2014, revealed his plan has three phases.
The first phase, airstrikes against Islamic State, also known as ISIS, is already under way in Iraq, where U.S. aircraft have launched 150 strikes working with Iraqi forces.
The second phase involves an intensified effort to train, advise, and equip the Iraqi Army, Kurdish Peshmerga fighters, and any Sunni tribesmen willing to fight ISIS.
The third and most politically fraught phase of the campaign would require airstrikes against ISIS inside Syria and train. He also wishes to support minorities including Christians with humanitarian aid.
Saudi Arabia, a crucial U.S. ally in the Middle East, offered to host the training missions, part of Obama’s effort to persuade other nations to join with the U.S. in confronting the militants.
“This is not our fight alone,” Obama declared. “American power can make a decisive difference, but we cannot do for Iraqis what they must do for themselves, nor can we take the place of Arab partners in securing their region.”
Pentagon spokesman Rear Admiral John Kirby said, “The military considers ISIS a threat to the nation and has conducted 150 airstrikes in Iraq, mostly near the vital Mosul Dam. Kirby said the Iraqi operations cost an average of $7.5 million a day. France and Germany have said it would join a U.S.-led coalition in Iraq and are already sending arms to Kurdish authorities to fight the militants.
The Islamic State military campaign has been accompanied by a propaganda media blitz showing crucifixions, beheadings of children and soldiers and other atrocities. To many, the business of the Islamic State is killing infidels, and it is better at it that any of its forerunners including al Qaeda. Interspersed with Islamic State footage of executions, and the marking out of local minorities for extermination, the message is that the Islamic State does not just preach; it acts mercilessly against its catalog of enemies. Using captured territory in north and eastern Syria, nearly 35 percent of the country, as its rear base, the ISIS is now attacking northeastward into Iraqi Kurdistan and even west across the border of Lebanon. Its rapid advances are made possible by the disintegration of Syria and Iraq, alienation of Sunni communities willing to resist Shiite Muslim governments.
Obama justified his air strikes as humanitarian, to protect tens of thousands of refugees from the Yazidi community threatened with genocide, and to thwart the killing of children and any ISIS advance on Arbil, capital of the Kurdistan Regional Government.
In an interview with CNN’s Jonathan Mann, he called what’s happening in Iraq a “Christian genocide” and said “children are being beheaded, mothers are being raped and killed, and fathers are being hung.” Systematic genocide of the Christians and other minorities seems even too dramatic for other than CNN to reveal to the American public. Note: There are times when good men everywhere must rise up and destroy evil.
Clark McClelland is a retired ground crew Spacecraft Operator (ScO) with NASA who during a 34 year career was responsible for ensuring the safety of numerous NASA missions including Mercury space flights, Apollo missions, the International Space Station and the Space Shuttle.
Clark writes, ”Yes, we landed 6 of 7 Apollo’s on the Moon in what NASA realized were heavily loaded with valuable tons of energy rich (H-3) regions. All six sites are very important for future power plants without the danger of radiation.
NASA Astronaut, James B. Irwin Apollo 15 Lunar Module Pilot and first to drive a NASCAR on the moon with his Lunar Rover. “Jim discussed with me his discovery of what may have been Space Shuttle Fleet ‘Alien mining sites’ he observed at the Hadley Rill Mountains.” We had other top secret missions carried out by NASA that was/is totally controlled by the Pentagon. NASA is NOT a Civilian Space Agency. The Pentagon is and has been in total control. Those six successful landing areas and the other that was not landed upon by Apollo 13 when it had a very dangerous explosion on-board that caused our mission to be changed to SAVING the LIVES of three NASA Astronauts on-board a very seriously damaged space craft.
We worked miracles at NASA KSC and NASA Houston to bring them all safely back to earth. It was in my opinion, the most successful Apollo mission of them all.
All six Apollo landing sites have all been placed as OFF LIMITS to any other nation from earth by the USA Government, due to that Helium-3 for future mining efforts by our nation. And we had better get moving and once again capture world leadership of Space Exploration here. I can assure you we have advanced space craft’s that have for many years been back on the moon and yes, a USA base is on the backside of the moon. We have already landed on Mars. We have had a top secret Astronaut Corp. for many, many years now. I have met many of them. Clark has served his country well and is now in great pain and ill. He could use your help and prayers. You can write him at P.O. Box 233 Tavares, Florida 32778. http://www.stargate-chronicles.com

Filer’s Files # 37 – 2014 – UFO Seen near ISS, - PART II
Craft above Passaic, New Jersey on September 3, 2014
Sightings of the United States
Arizona Light
This at first appeared to be a plane that was simply flying parallel to ours, but then it veered away from us over the western Arizona desert and appeared to descend and “land” as I looked back at it. But the object’s extremely bright lights, which sometimes were 4, 3 or 2 in number, stayed on even after it appeared to “land.”
In the photo, the lights have descended to (or near) the ground. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Alaska Disc
My boss and his wife took a vacation in Alaska on August 29. 2014 and brought back a set of photographs from the vacation. I noticed the UFO on one of the developed photographs and pointed it out to them. Both of them said that the image in the photograph was not visible in the sky when the picture was taken.
The actual developed photograph and the digital copy of the picture pictures match. There is clearly a white disc-shaped object, high in the sky, above the mountain. No-one could explain the image. Thanks to MUFON CMS
California Orb
Stockton — I was coming home from getting breakfast at Alberto’s on Hammer Lane on September 4, 2014, and I noticed a contrail and a bright light hovering in the sky.
I asked my nephew to see it as I started to record. I couldn’t record the smaller lights that appeared, disappeared and reappeared. A larger light appeared and descended into the cloud as the others did. A UFO made a descending contrail and then fighter jets headed straight toward the cloud with their afterburners on. Then some of the orbs disappeared and the other left a curved contrail as it left fast. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Florida Coral Castle UFO
Homestead – My husband and I were touring the “Coral Castle” structures with a handful of other people on July 15, 2014. When I got home and reviewed the smart phone images, I noticed the disk-looking object in the sky.
I never saw it while taking those pictures. The picture taken a couple of seconds before was not taken with HDF and there is no “object” in that photo with a very light sky color. The image I took of the tour guide with HDF shows a blue sky and that strange oval / disk object. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Naples — We were stopping by the gas station on Collier Boulevard about 1 am on August 20, 2014, when we saw this rare challenger and took a photo of it. The following day when we looked at the picture we noticed the strange object. Since I dont believe in ufos I decided to return to the site of where we took the photo thinking that maybe it was another set of lights. But there aren’t any besides that one. We did not notice it at the time of the photo. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Illinois Disc
Brookfield — My girlfriend and I went to the Zoo on September 1, 2014. I gave my phone to a person at the zoo to take our picture. A few days later, I was going through the pictures from the zoo and I noticed the object. At first glance I thought it was a blimp.
Once I magnified the object I was able to see a pentagon turned on its side with a reflective glow around it with a dark shadow on the bottom. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Louisiana Lights
Ruston — People were pointing and started taking pictures, and saying “look it’s a UFO” during this high school football game at our outdoor stadium. My kid also took a couple photos. It was round and reddish orange with green flashing lights.
It was there and continued on a direct path until it was out of site high in the sky. We joked about it being a UFO, but it did not look like a plane, so it’s sort of a mystery. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Maryland Lights
Pasadena — The photo was taken on Tuesday, September 2 2014, about 6:10 AM, prior to sunrise on Chesapeake Bay. Note, the lights in the distances. I checked and no Air Force or other training was scheduled. “The photo was taken by my cousin who was visiting Chesapeake Bay with friends. She sent me several photos, and it was only when I questioned the lights did she notice them. It was dawn, so I doubt it was any kind of reflection. Why would there be 19 different lights separated by a gap on the horizon? Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com
New Jersey Triangle
Passiac—On September 3, 2014, I observed the object for around three minutes it made aeronautical maneuvers that I had not seen before. The object was triangular black yet reflective and was able to change directions extremely fast and appeared to hover.
There appeared to be a light or window on the top of the craft and then it headed north at an extreme rate of speed faster than anything I have ever seen. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Sayreville – In the morning of August 29, 2014, I went out and looked towards the NE-E sky and thought it was some kind of drone. So I used my cell phone to take three images. The silent object was diamond shaped but concave towards the bottom. The back looked like it would have engines. I was able to see this object for a minute and a half as it moved into tree cover and noticed it had a glass observation area in the front. I uploaded the pictures to my computer to determine if what I saw was manmade. Thanks to MUFON CMS
North Carolina White Object
Rockingham – I was at home and walked outside to help my husband weed eating on September 4, 2014, our nephew was standing beside me and I looked up and saw this white object in the sky. I asked my nephew if he seen it and he looked up and said yeah, what is that? I then got my phone out and starting filming it.
It was just slowly going in a straight line. It wasn’t shaped like a plane, helicopter, or a blimp. I didn’t get much of it because it went behind the tree line and I lost it. I tried walking around the trees and could not find it again. I really just want to know what this is. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Nevada Hangar
Ufologist Norio Hayakawa reports a massive hangar or some kind of enclosure is currently under construction at Area 51. No one knows what its purpose is though it’s said to be four times larger than Hangar 18 at Wright Patterson AFB, which allegedly housed evidence from the Roswell Incident. It could hold unusually large aircraft or space craft.
He feels tunnels connect Area 51 secret bases in the Southwest. Activity at Area 51 is on the rise, he reported, with the development of new technologies such as unmanned aerial vehicles, and there is no truth to the rumor that operations were moved to another location
Munhall — The first time my girlfriend viewed the object was on August 31, 2014, about 11 pm. “She asked if it was a satellite?” I pulled my phone out and opened my star app and held it up toward where the light was and nothing showed. Also I did not have my contacts in but I was able to see the lights coming from the object. I went and put my contacts back in and we then observed the object for over two hours. It hovered and the lights frequently changed color.
We have been seeing these lights/objects every night since. On September 3rd, I was at my mother’s house and my girlfriend was home 15 miles away. She texted me saying the object was back so I looked up toward her area and we both observed the object from two different places at 10:30 pm. It ejected “glitter” from the bottom and I grabbed a digital camera and I took 20 pictures of it hovering over North Park. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Worldwide UFO Sightings
Australia Saucer Shaped Craft
Wooloowin– A saucer-shaped object was photographed on May 23, 2014 over Brisbane’s north side that should be taken “seriously.” There has been a spike in the number of reported UFO sightings over Queensland over recent months, according to president of UFO Research Queensland Sheryl Gottschall, with the Gold Coast being a real “hot spot.” Ms Gottschall said, “There was a sighting on the Gold Coast on Friday night, Cairns last week and there was another sighting in Childers.”We get about 100 calls a year and across Australia all up the UFO research groups get up to 800. That’s just the reported sightings – a lot go unreported.” One photograph reportedly taken over Wooloowin on May 23 shows a silver disc hovering in the sky. The police concluded the lights were “presumed to be the result of EKKA lighting tests” but were of “unknown origin.” Ms Gottschall, who claims to have seen five UFOs and experienced one extraterrestrial “close encounter” in her lifetime, says there has been an ever increasing interest in UFOs and extraterrestrial life, which has resulted in the formation of “sky watch” groups. . KEN’S NOTE: The real photos below were taken in 2014. This is only a couple of the many photos and UFO accounts in Australia.
Orillia – On September 3, 2014, at 10 pm, I went out on my deck for a smoke overlooking Lake Simcoe. Looking over the water there was an object that was bouncing up and down, was large enough to see and was low as a small plane flying low over the water.
This was not a plane or a Chinese lantern. It was bright reddish color coming towards us. I got out my binocular and took a better look and it appeared a clearly white color. It moved fairly quickly and like a ball of fire, as it moved towards us a tree was obstructing the view, so ran down onto the grass to continue watching but it disappeared completely. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Toronto — I was near Yonge and Finch and I saw something standing in the air and I took that picture and I recorded a movie but somehow that thing just disappeared. I recorded a movie but I can’t send it from my phone. I was just wondering what is that? I was just standing and moving slowly and it was gone like an eye blink. Thanks to John Hayes www.UFOinfo.com
China Red Light
Zhujiang Newtown, Guangzhou — It was night time, and I was going for a walk at the Huacheng Square walkway on September 9, 2014. As soon as I arrived near the end of the square, I noticed that there were lots of people taking pictures. I saw a far away red light that gradually got brighter as it was making its way towards me
As the red light drew nearer, I realized it maintained a constant color and drew even nearer to me it disappeared into a low-lying cloud. To my surprise the “craft” came out of the clouds silently and made its way over the festival square. As it passed over me, I noticed a round almost oval-like shape larger than an aspirin pill. The color appeared to be a grayish blue color, and there was a slight reflection on the object from the surrounding city lights.
As it passed over me 500-600 feet above the ground it fluttered some violet, blue, blue-green, red-pink, and green lights. Sort of like temporary beacons or special kind of navigation signals. By the time I got my phone camera ready the object sped up and slowly made its way south towards the Pearl River, and disappeared. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Honduras Disc?
Puerto Cortes — This event happened over a soccer field at 5:30 PM Local.
The date of the photos was listed as Aug 24, 2014.
Note: The photo above is quite likely a hoax. The witness provided no information. I have contacted the witness to verify whether this is a photo or a recreation of a sighting. The witness erroneously reported the sighting date as 9-24-2014. The associated “EXIF” data with the photos shows that the photos were edited with Photoshop. Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com
Mexico Lights
Querétaro — I was in my car with my parents and an aunt when we saw a stationary strange light in the sky on July 9, 2014. I proceeded to park my car and started to observe the lights and I realized it was a triangle shaped object with a red light in the center and a yellow light at each angle. The object was really close to me, so I decided to take some pictures with my cell phone. The object emitted a sound similar to a commercial airplane. The triangular object took a straight-line path away. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Poland Light
Trzebnica – On September 9, 2014, as I exited the train from Wroclaw I saw a pulsating orange fireball. It was flying just above me! I saw it pass overhead at a distance of only 300 meters. It was clear that the ufo was making a straight path right to me. I saw it and filmed as it approached. Just when it was over my head it turned off its lightning and it surrounded itself with some kind of invisible shield. The shield was three times the diameter of the object, and a disc was inside, and it was not completely invisible. The moon light helped me trace its path and to see the marvelous cloaking functionality that that ufo activated over me! I captured a second similar ufo with my smart phone. I made a report last winter after seeing two ufos. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Portugal Disc
VIANA DO CASTELO — I was taking photos of an aircraft and nothing was amazing on May 10, 2014. A UFO suddenly appeared among the clouds which had passed the plane. I did not see anything just the track of plane. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Sahara Desert
I was on an Alitalia flight, Brazil – Italy flying over the Sahara desert, and realized one object was following our aircraft on right side it on September 1, 2014. I would like to send images to analyze, I photographed and filmed during 11 minutes with Canon 5D in RAW file, and made a short video … My girlfriend and I went to the zoo on September 1, 2014. I gave my phone to a person at the zoo to take our picture. A few days later, I was going through the pictures from the zoo and I noticed the object. At first glance I thought it was a blimp. Once I magnified the object I was unable to identify it. It appears to be a pentagon turned on its side with a reflective glow around it. Its shadow on the bottom is very dark. My girlfriend wanted to remain anonymous so I cropped her out of the image. Thanks to Thomas Baccaro Email www.thomasbaccaro.com. Art Dealer, Fine Art & Cultural Production
United Kingdom Sighting
Sheffield – William Puckett writes, “I received a report from a photographer in showing a disk shaped craft in the background of the photo on August 23, 2014.” I believe that the object is real and is not a local fixture or an object thrown in the air. It is in focus. The sun had set so photo saturation is not a factor.

Filer’s Files # 36-2014 Alien Voices Heard - PART I
Filer’s Files # 36-2014 Alien Voices Heard - PART I
Craft above Ponca City, Oklahoma on August 31, 2014
In special reports, this week’s files cover: UFOs and Admiral Delmer S. Fahrney, Alien Voices Break into Two NASA Missions,Islamic State Beheads Journalist,An Abductee Letter, and Missouri UFO Sighting Update.
Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over: Alabama, Arkansas, California, Indiana, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Vermont.
Sightings of UFOs were also reported in: Australia, Canada, Greece, Indonesia, Lithuania, Spain, and in England in the United Kingdom.
The Filer Research Institute feels the scientific study of UFOs is for the benefit of humankind and is an important endeavor. The weekly intelligence report provides you with information on the latest sightings and UFO news that you need to understand the world situation. The purpose of these files is to report the UFO eyewitness and photo/video evidence that occurs on a daily basis around the world and in space. These Files assume that extraterrestrial intelligent life not only exists, but my hypothesis is that the over a thousand UFOs reported each month represent technologically advanced spacecraft conducting surveillance of Earth. I personally became interested in UFOs when London Control ordered me to intercept one over England while flying for the US Air Force and Prince Phillip told me of his personal interest in UFOs. The US Air Force investigated UFOs for more than twenty years under Project Blue Book; and I continue this advanced research. I believe the God of the universe has spread life throughout the cosmos and UFO’s are visiting us in ever-increasing numbers. Forward these files to your friends and neighbors.
“No agency in this country or Russia is able to duplicate at this time the speeds and accelerations which radars and observers indicate these flying objects are able to achieve… there are objects coming into our atmosphere at very high speeds.” Vice Admiral Delmer S. Fahrney, former head of the Navy’s guided-missile program, printed in New York Times, January 17, 1957, p. 31.
Rear Admiral Fahrney was “the foremost Navy pioneer for the development of guided missiles. His vision of future weaponry, technical excellence and tireless advocacy formed the basis for the post-World War II Navy missile programs.”.”Admiral Fahrney’s early work in guided missiles and his foresight in planning for future generations of missiles earned for him recognition by many peers as ‘the father of naval air guided missiles.'”
Commander Graham Bethune the VIP pilot for Admiral Fahrney and other top commanders claims he flew the top brass to a UFO crash site in Iceland in the early 1950s.
.
On January 16, 1957, Admiral Fahrney held a press conference for the National Investigations Committee on Aerial Phenomena (NICAP) stating, “Reliable reports indicate there are objects coming into our atmosphere at very high speeds. The way they change position would indicate their motion is directed.” (New York Times article) Fahrney was chairman of NICAP’s Board of Governors for one week, and then, for personal reasons, had to resign. His replacement was the first CIA Director Admiral Roscoe Hillenkoetter, who was recruited in April 1957, and this must have infuriated the CIA. According to Richard Hall, Fahrney was a NICAP member for a long time, and visited the office when he was there in 1958, and later exchanged a lot of information with Jim McDonald. Throughout, he kept funneling good Navy pilot and missile officer cases to NICAP.
Alien Voices Break Into Two NASA Missions
Apollo 8
Brett Allen writes, “NASA must still be holding its breath over two incredible space mission events that they must now hope have been long forgotten. Although it’s rumored that Dr. Edgar Mitchell told a fellow scientist at a UFO symposium that we were warned off the Moon, it may well not be the first time such events played out. In fact, two incredible events in Ufology have gone completely forgotten by modern UFOlogists.” I believe both the last 1963 Mercury Mission and the subsequent 1968 Apollo 8 mission, should have changed our views on the question of “alien” life… had UFOlogists followed up on the events. For years, I have been amazed that I am the only one who seems to remember that on two separate NASA missions, Gemini 7 and Apollo 8, strange voices in an unintelligible language, voices that appeared to be admonishing mankind, broke into NASA’s secure mission frequencies. I remember as a child, the events put chills up my spine.
Like Moses in Exodus, when entering the realm of God from Mt. Sinai… “thereupon I saw the whole round of the Earth, at once the depth of the Earth and then the vast altitudes of the heavens…,” the world drew a collective sigh, as Apollo 8 astronauts, at least in contemporary times, became the first to see planet Earth, in its entirety, from the firmament of heaven. Next, the mission would take three more days for Apollo 8 to begin to orbit the Moon, where the module would take them over the far side of the Moon, the side long rumored, and suggested in photographs, to possibly harbor an extraterrestrial civilization… perhaps a question that may have been answered almost half a century ago.
Orbiting the lunar surface on Christmas Eve, astronauts William Anders, Jim Lovell, and Frank Borman read, in turn, from the Bible’s creation narrative; the first 10 verses of the Book of Genesis.
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. “God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.
And God said, “Let there be a vault between the waters to separate water from water.” So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it. And it was so. God called the vault “sky.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day.
And God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear.” And it was so. God called the dry ground “land,” and the gathered waters he called “seas.” And God saw that it was good.
It’s during that mission, it’s said, the crew made their infamous Christmas Eve sighting of the infamous “Ezekiel’s wheel” UFO as Lovell in the center of photo quipped… “Roger. Please be informed, there IS a Santa Claus!” But there is far more to the Apollo 8 story… and possibly a very good reason why the crew read from the book of Genesis. I suggest they were paying homage to the god (s) they now knew existed… and controlled the Moon.
At that time in history, the mission was the most watched TV event ever aired, that is why I find it amazing that I am among the very few who still remember the startled faces on Mission Control technicians, as the unexplained, stern voice, broke in over NASA‘s secure frequency. Yelling in an unintelligible language, it gave you the feeling it was chiding the astronauts and Mission Control like recalcitrant children. Although the Apollo 8 Mission had its mysteries, virtually no one remembers this unexplained “interruption.”
Neither does anyone remember that three years earlier, on 16 May 1963, from his Faith 7, Mercury capsule over Hawaii, Gordon Cooper, speaking with mission control on his special secure frequency, also had a similar, extraneous, berating voice or voices break into his transmission. Later, scientifically examined, the public was reassured and offered this double entendre… “The voice corresponded to no known language… on Earth!”
Oddly enough, although Cooper made other UFO admissions, he was never asked about, or mentioned, anything about this bizarre incident. Neither did Borman, Lovell or Anders. Amazingly, both incidents have sunk into UFO obscurity. If you think I have this wrong, you’ll find an account of the both incidents recorded in the “Time Life” book series “Time and Space Mysteries,” Vol. 21.” Was someone or something, warning us against “slipping the surely bonds of Earth,” and entering the realm of the gods?
.Amazingly, two years after Cooper’s Mercury mission, on November 9th 1965, a UFO “fireball” was blamed for the Nation’s Great Northeast blackout. UFOlogists have confirmed that a flurry of UFO activity descended on the Northeast, and culminated in the Nation’s largest blackout. Were the ancient god(s) again trying to send mankind a very loud message? The events even led to Congressional hearings in which the subject of UFOs and our vulnerable energy grid were discussed.
Finally, few, even now, remember that on Jan 15th, 2004, President George W. Bush, stood before the world and announced an ambitious plan for America to return to the Moon by 2020. Constructing a lunar base, we would use the missions as a stepping stone for future manned trips to Mars and beyond. However, I believe Bush was also sent a very deliberate message, one he too received loud and clear.
During his terms as President, the Bush White House endured two UFO incursions into its airspace: the first, Nov 20th, 2003, and in case he didn’t get the message, after his “Return to the Moon” speech, he again received a second on April 27, 2005; an event that saw Bush spirited away to a bunker under the White House, while Cheney was rushed to a separate undisclosed location. But then on Jan 8th, 2006, another huge, 300-meter, silent, UFO was seen by many witnesses heading, fast and low, on a direct path for Bush’s Crawford ranch. Two fighter jets were in hot pursuit. Radar reports confirmed the event. Coincidently, Bush, like NASA, lost all interest in returning to the Moon, simply blamed on a lack of Congressional funding. Amazingly, despite a wealth of scientific knowledge that could be gleamed from such missions, NASA has never returned to the Moon, nor does it have any plans too… why?
Dr. Aleksandr Kasantsev states that Aldrin took color movie film of the UFOs from inside the module and continued filming them after Armstrong went outside. Soviets say Armstrong said the story is true.
Islamic State Beheads Journalist
The Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) has beheaded Steven J. Sotloff, the second American executed by the Islamic militant group, and posted a video of it on the Internet. The Islamic State wishes to prove it is a barbaric terrorist group conducting beheadings, crucifixions and mass kidnappings and killings. Mr. Sotloff’s beheading came two weeks after James Foley, 40, another American journalist, was beheaded by ISIS.
The US has begun surveillance flights over Islamic State forces in Syria—a potential precursor to airstrikes against the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria terrorist group, according to the Associated Press. White House spokesman Josh Earnest said Monday the President has not yet “made a decision to pursue any sort of military action in Syria the key base of ISIS.” He noted that the President as flown to Europe to obtain NATO support against the Islamic State and to discuss Russian actions in the Ukraine. Drones are now conducting reconnaissance missions over Syria to develop key targets.
The Syrian Government indicates it would welcome attacks on ISIS forces that recently overran Raqqa Air Base and killed several hundred Syrian soldiers after they surrendered. It is evident we need reliable partners on the ground that will likely include Turkey, Iraq, Syria, and Iran.
A Royal Australian Air Force C-17A has delivered ammunition to Kurdish forces in northern Iraq. The C-17A aircraft flew to Tirana in Albania where it was loaded before delivering the ammunition to the Kurdish town of Erbil. RAAF C130 Hercules aircraft have already been involved in dropping aid to communities in northern Iraq threatened by the advance of Islamic State militants.
Various countries are flying in small arms and ammunition to prevent the further beheadings of Christian children and other religious minorities. On Tuesday UN chief Ban Ki-moon
said, “It was important that nations such as Australia help address the situation in Iraq. - See more at: http://www.skynews.com.au/
Iraqi forces (blue on Map) broke through Sunday to the jihadist-besieged Shiite town in Amerli, where twenty thousand people have been trapped for more than two months with dwindling food and water. The increased use of airpower, not just U.S. fighter jets but also the arrival of Russian-built Su-25 attack jets for the Iraqi Air Force, have had a significant impact, though gauging casualties among Islamic State fighters is difficult. ISIS forces areditching military-type vehicles that make them easy targets of air strikes, and are blending in with residents, say witnesses.
Aircraft from several countries also dropped humanitarian aid to Amerli.
The mainly Shiite Turkmen were running desperately short of food and water, and endangered both because of their Shiite faith, which jihadists consider heresy, and their resistance to the militants, which has drawn harsh retribution elsewhere. The Iraqi forces entered Amerli and broke the siege. The ISIS terror tactics are giving the government forces resolve to win rather than surrender to certain death. Thanks to AP.
An Abductee Letter
Harv Howard writes, “MUFON at its core was slow in accepting abductee cases such as my own and slower still in moving even further along the path. From your files I get the impression that you have not moved too far from the older works stipulating that demonic forces are involved with UFOs. For a better update on these topics I suggest that you get acquainted with the many accounts of the thousands of people that have taken the drug Ayahuasca clinically known as DMT. An excellent book by Rick Strassman and three other professionals is entitled “Inner Paths to Outer Space.”It is available from Amazon. If you read the book, you will undoubtedly find that even when Strassman was doing the initial DMT experiments using college students in the mid-1990s that his subjects frequently reported contact with aliens in one fashion or another. The book does attempt to put such experiences in perspective as internal to the experiencer, but it fails to answer the larger question of exactly what is going on.
Having experienced total loss of control of my body and mind during my abduction while I was driving in 1964, I strongly suspect that the ETs are real, very much as they appear in body and ships, but that these days they find the DMT users easier, receptive targets, getting into and controlling if not altering their philosophical states of mind. Some of them remember strange encounters with aliens, some do not. Reflecting back on my experience, I remember only the beginning and end of my two-hour time loss. If I can be programmed starting from a fully conscious state, I suspect it is possible that some of these DMT people may have been influences beyond what they remember. (Some may not be suitable.) From what I understand in learning about DMT is that typically the experiencer gained a perspective of a greater appreciation of the cosmos and, a propensity to think that the New World Order is not such a bad concept. As formerly a country bumpkin at the age of 24, I can attest that overnight I had a change of view on far beyond that I held the day before. Thanks to Harv Howard
Missouri UFO Sighting Update
Joplin – Marge Kay Missouri MUFON Assistant State Director and Star Team Investigator has received new information from one of the witnesses who saw the possible landing of a UFO that was bigger than a house. This case involved an airline pilot, Joplin Globe general manager John Cruzan and health technician Traci Cruzan, who had a close encounter with a UFO. On July 8 at 9:15 p.m. Barry Powell was walking his dog in front of his house when he noticed a quarter-sized object with orange lights in the sky north of his location. As the object descended from a high altitude to a low altitude on a straight-line trajectory Barry realized that it was no standard aircraft. As John Cruzan and his wife Traci rounded the corner in their Jeep, the pilot flagged them down. The two jumped out of their vehicle just as the object was flying an estimated 300 feet overhead.
The three witnesses said that the object was one-acre wide and one-acre in length. They said that there was absolutely no sound coming from the object and that this concerned them.
“The pilot said, ‘I know what different aircraft sound like and there should have been an engine sound but there was none. And what was keeping that thing in the air? There were no wings or tail and it was flying too slow to be airborne.’
“The witnesses all said they felt like the situation was surreal. The pilot said that there was no sound in the area as he watched the object overhead, yet John Cruzan heard the pilot’s dog barking at the object. The neighborhood dogs all barked at the object as it flew over the homes in the area.
The object was very large, teardrop in shape with multiple orange, blue, and yellow lights underneath. The three followed the craft to a location where they thought it may have landed or crashed, and experienced strange phenomena with their vehicle and flashlight while in the area. The flashlight failed to project a beam and the Jeep would not shift into gear.
On August 18, Mr. Cruzan stated that he had seen a physician about the burn with blisters on his arm that appeared right after the UFO sighting on July 8. The Doctor said that. “The injury was consistent with a burn caused by a laser.” Mr. Cruzan also stated that he was very ill for three weeks after the encounter, but that he had been feeling better for the past week. Doctors could not explain the illness and said that he did not have a virus. The illness led investigators to wonder if Mr. Cruzan had been exposed to radiation, however, neither of the other two witnesses were ill and they were all in close proximity to each other throughout the UFO encounter, so that likely rules out radiation as the cause.
We have since received five more reports from less than a mile away. Missouri MUFON requests that any other witnesses to this event or similar events contact Margie Kay at 816-833-1602816-833-1602 or margiekay06@yahoo.com.

Craft above Ponca City, Oklahoma on August 31, 2014
Sightings of the United States
Alabama Circular Lights
Russellville — I saw it twice. First, I was driving south on Highway 43 in Colbert County, in a strip of farm land known locally as the “Cotton Flats”. There were angular clouds and a series of flashes. I quickly realized that it was green and blue and all hews in between. I slowed the vehicle as the glow of lights that seemed to be scanning outward. The object lowered beneath the clouds radiating blue to green and back again. It had two lines of circular lights in two parallel lines. The lines would hover and then shift attitude continuing the light show.
Then the lights at the top of the parallel lines got closer together while the ones in the back pin wheeled further apart. Both lines stayed straight but were at 45 degree angles of each other. Then they took off to the southeast and vanished but reappeared and I grabbed my camera and snapped a photo. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Arkansas Light
Pine Bluff — We pretty much have our game-cam on daily and on August 12, 2914, got this photo. We have captured a few of the pictures over the past two years. We do have more photos of more unexplainable events. I don’t know if these are anything to investigate, but would like to know what the “heck” is going on. Thanks to MUFON CMS
California Lights
Joshua Tree – Deb Warren writes, I took photos during the August 2014 Dr. Greer CSETI training as the meditation was beginning. Just as the meditation began, he indicated a bright golden object just above the eastern horizon. Daniel D. began recording with his night vision video camera. I took 9 photos as the golden ball moved south. I saw navigation lights and decided it was a plane. When the meditation ended, I discovered this object on three of the photos. I showed the images to Dr. Greer and he invited everyone to come take a look.
If you look closely at the star positions between photo 3 and 4, you see that in 18 seconds the plane traveled to the right a certain distance, and in the same period, the object traveled to left 4 times the distance of the plane. The “thinning” of the object and dispersal of the ‘jewels’ of light may be some kind of preparation for a hyper-jump into a trans-dimensional form. Snip
Dr. Greer later explained that he remote viewed the plane and knew that it was a military craft reconnoitering the area. ) that is hyper-jumping 4 to 6 times while the shutter is open, that is the reason for the translucent red line. Or it could be one object (i.e. a string of ‘jewels’ on the exterior of the craft?) which appears in a circular arrangement in Photo 2. Many people were sighting red objects hovering briefly in the area. On Aug 16th, I saw an object with this same appearance pop in briefly. All week I had been asking the ETs for the opportunity to take pictures of “jewel-like” craft. Thanks to Deb Warren. http://ocseti.wordpress.com/2014/08/19/cseti-joshua-tree-ca-august-2014-et-jewel-craft-debs-photos/
Indiana Star
Lucknow — I was on my rooftop at night gazing at stars on 30 August 2014, and spotted a glowing object changing direction, changing altitude, and color. The object was a glowing orb, which was yellow/gold/orange and silver/white color in the west. It was big, dimming, and glowing, and releasing a lot of light. It was travelling southwest silently. It was totally a different amazing experience so I called my friend about 11:15 pm and he was amazed. It just vanished, when I was looking at it. After midnight I saw it and descend in the southwest. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Maryland Disc
Owings Mills – My wife and I observed a disc shaped white glowing object on August 28, 2014. My wife and I observed a disc shaped white glowing object at 7:54 pm. We know standard aircraft and have never seen anything like this or ever made an actual UFO report. This was not a plane or copter.
The glowing disc made high speed movements, abrupt turns, hovering, ascending and descending. Eventually it disappeared into tree lines. We tried chasing but lost track of the object. Thanks to MUFON Thanks to MUFON CMS
New Jersey Photo Shows White Cigar
North Wildwood — I saw a red light fireball on August 10, 2014, that made no sound and was hovering over North Wildwood. Note: The photo shows a white cigar shaped object which is much different than what the witness observed? Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com
Marlton – My cousin (former Navy guy) and I watched 9 large orange red objects fly from south to north over Marlton around 9:25 PM, on August 9, 2014. I captured two on video which made no sound and sky was clear. We saw two spheres following each other, then a third, then five. Then a lull in the action for a minute, then number 6, then a lull for a minute, then number 7, then a lull for a minute, then number 8 and 9. None were side by side, all followed behind each other. My cousin estimated the speed at between 600-700 mph. I have a YouTube version of video. Thanks to MUFON CMS
New York Orb
Bay Shore– I was in my backyard with my son and my dog Spanky and I take pictures of the moon and stars and we have seen objects before so I had my camera with me. I noticed an object that was bright and flying too low to be an airplane or helicopter. The object appeared to be round, glowing and was moving at a decent speed across the sky. Spanky started barking. I said to my son, “Eric, what’s that?” I turned my camera to video mode and started filming. I was excited, in awe and nervous because this was over our heads and I was determined to get a photo and or video of it. The object went over my house and out of sight. Thanks to MUFON CMS
North Carolina Flying Object
Highlands – A professor at Georgia Tech writes, “I run a UFO camera in Highlands and got three frames on August 22st around 5 PM. The object goes from the left to the right of the video frame. It moves across the frame in 1 second. My frame rate is one frame each .25 seconds. That sequence will take you from left to right which is the order for viewing. This photo is the center shot. I have magnified the object and it does not look like a plane, bird, or insect. I am sending you the high resolution version so that you can see the object in detail. I have never seen an aircraft that low in the mountains. The speed is what is interesting. It goes from right to left in just over a second. It is a true UFO. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Ohio Smoke Trail
Lakewood — I was at my soccer game which had started at 7 PM and my mom takes pictures of me so she had her camera on August 20, 2014. My cousin came to the game and noticed something funny in the sky while looking at the airplanes and it was a weird shape so my mom took a picture and we have never seen anything like it. It’s bronze colored and shaped very odd. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Akron– While I and my girlfriend were outside in the yard I saw a bright white light off in the distance on August 20, 2014. I started recording on my phone as the object came in our direction as its flickering lights changed colors. I had lights on the outside like an airplane but after zooming in on the smaller lights on the outside of it, the lights to me look similar to orbs. There is a small airport nearby but this thing was real low and silent. I thought I would send this video with a still shot I got off the video but we couldn’t identify a shape. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Oklahoma Orb
Henryetta — I and two others were sitting on a hilltop watching the sunset in the western sky about 7:45 pm, on August 28, 2014. Right above the cloud line appeared a ball of light, the size of a star but much brighter and closer. We thought maybe it could be the space station going by.
The light stayed in the same spot for about two minutes then two smaller orbs appeared directly under it. The bright light began to get very dim as if it was moving away. We thought it was gone then the bright orb exploded as if it hit something, there was a large ball of fire in the sky, it happened so fast. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Ponca City – I was preparing to take star trail images and snapped off a few stills to check the exposure settings on August 31, 2014, and then I took a series of star trail images. Camera was on tripod and pointing due east. When going through the images this morning I came across something that I cannot identify. I did not see this object with my naked eye. In following image taken shortly after the “UFO” image does not show anything. So it was gone quickly. Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com
Pennsylvania Woman Captures UFO
Lower Paxton – ABC’s Good Morning America TV reported on August 27, 2014.”“A Pennsylvania woman who captured what she insists was an unidentified flying object on her cell phone camera says she is now “scared to death.” A couple police officers also say they saw the UFO that night. Stephanie Wilkerson says she was relaxing on her porch in Lower Paxton Township, Monday night when she spotted an object in the night sky. “I thought it was a plane until I realized it wasn’t moving,” Wilkerson told ABC News. “I watched it for about 20 minutes and I started noticing it changing colors.” Click HERE to Read About More UFO Sightings
Wilkerson grabbed her cell phone to record the mysterious object and also called her neighbor over to verify what she was seeing. “He went and got his binoculars because he first thought it was a planet,” Wilkerson said. “Then he said, ‘No, it changed yellow. That is not a planet.’”Wilkerson also called 911 but when an officer arrived at her home, even he could not explain the mysterious objects in the sky.“He went there and apparently he saw them too so he called his sergeant and his corporal to come and verify what he was seeing,” said Lower Paxton Township Police Lt. Gary Seefeldt. Authorities contacted both the local airport and the National Guard training center, but neither had records of any flight activity that night. Wilkerson says she and a neighbor saw the mysterious lights again Wednesday night. “For me to see that, I am now a believer in UFOs,” Wilkerson said. Thanks to ABC
Texas Cigar Shaped Strange Craft
Bandera — My husband and I were sitting in the backyard facing SE so I could have a smoke on August 2, 2014. Dragonflies and butterflies, and birds were flying around but at a long distance away, a movement caught my eye. I watched it zip from my right to left a short distance and disappear all within three seconds. There were some leaves in the path of my view and the object never came out the other side of it. The edges were somewhat blurry like a heat signature, but the color and details were clearer than I would have expected. It was about two inches long by 1/4 inch wide; yellow like a bee with black detail or windows, maybe both, on the top half.

Vermont Boomerang
Sharon — I was watching two red tailed hawks in the sky on August 28, 2014, and barely visible but very distinct even though it was nearly transparent. It was boomerang shaped but round. Almost thought it was a flock of birds at first. But the object was perfectly rounded on the leading edge, which was slightly darker.
When watching it did appear that there was more to it than just the leading edge with a little blurry area behind it. It was flying south and lost it after about 30 seconds… Most of the images I found were triangles. But I found one image that is identical to what I saw. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Worldwide UFO Sightings
Australia Lights
Mount Delaney – About 8 am, I was walking to stables to feed chickens, noticed a large circle on the lawn 10 foot across. This was outlined in white which appeared to be an ice like material, even though the temperature was about 12 degrees C which disappeared when touched. Upon closer inspection, there were 4 circles, the larger then decreasing in size to the smallest 2 feet across. I proceeded to take photographs. In the afternoon I went back to the area and the lawn is discolored, and the clear outline is still evident. I have no explanation. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Ballarat — I went outside to move the car on August 19, 2014, and looked south at our cat on the fence when my attention was drawn to two very bright red lights traveling slowly but steadily north. I watched them for 10 seconds before running inside to get my wife and two daughters. The silent orb like structures seemed to glow a bright red color. My initial thought was they were satellites as they had the same constant speed observed of satellites on clear nights. I then realized the sky was very cloudy and that these lights were below the cloud cover. The western most light began to gradually be obscured by clouds before disappearing as did the second light. They were emitting their own light. I’m a scientist and can offer no logical explanation for this sighting. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Canada Lights
Chilliwack – I was sitting on the deck on our hillside, 550 feet above the valley floor on August 26, 2014. About 9 PM, a bright yellow – orange light appeared from behind a low hill travelling in a straight path northeast at a 1000 feet elevation. The object instantly caught my attention as I had never seen anything that bright in the night sky. The object moved horizontally across the sky at 100 km/hr (60 mph) with no sound until it disappeared behind trees. I took three pictures that showed a white spherical object. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Greece Lights for 7 Nights.
Euboea Island– During our stay at my father in law’s vacation house in central Greece I took an interest in night photography with a Sony A-5000 large sensor camera. I went to the other side of the house, with a beautiful view at the Aegean Sea and took the lights at the port of Skiathos.
I continued taking night photos of the lights of Skiathos and saw over my head for about 3 seconds a black disk flying with no sound and going south, towards the village of St. Anna. I remembered the two first “bad”photos and reviewed them again using the zoom rocket. Lights kept appearing each night and I kept photographing them. Unfortunately as today (August 29) we had to leave and return to Athens, last night was the last photos I took, but I’m pretty sure the lights will continue. Thanks to Peter Davenport Director www.UFOCenter.com
Indonesia Triangle Formation
Jakarta — I found the UFO around 7.00 pm, on 26 August 2014. At first, it looked like a star, but a star doesn’t move around, so I looked through my telescope (sky watcher) and observed the object. It looked like a light triangle formation. In that moment I called my brother and he is shocked too with this sighting.
It was triangle shape with white brightness, brighter than normal city lights that was slow moving or was moving around. And it did not leave trails. It was bigger and brighter than a star. I used Sony nex 3n Telescope. Thanks to Peter Davenport Director www.UFOCenter.com
Lithuania 7 Gray Lights
Kaunas – I took my dog for a walk on August 12, 2014, and heard a jetliner flying above, gone in darker area after my house for a dog to do its stuff, looked in the sky to spot the plane at 10:35 PM. suddenly, ~7 fast moving objects, grayish color travelled through the sky. Formation random and changing rapidly. No craft could fly so fast, changing formation so rapidly with absolute no sound. There was jetliner flying at high sky normal high ~10km. Those objects flew ~1-3 km. hard to say because no visible shape just lights. Gone through the sky from one corner until couldn’t see in 6-7s. Too fast to be able to take photo. Thanks to Peter Davenport Director www.UFOCenter.com
Spain Orb
Tenerife– Whilst walking from the apartment to the Cave Bar, we stopped to look at a white light shooting across the stars towards us in August 2001. Initially we thought it was a shooting star, but then it slowed and stopped just hovering there. It was orb like brilliant white and had a pulsing yellow light around the edges that change in shade. We were transfixed and were joking about it being an alien space ship, but then it started moving closer again and changed direction at such a sharp angle we knew it wasn’t possible. The speed with which it moved towards the coast of Africa and disappeared was phenomenal.
We were shocked and knew what we had just seen was a UFO, as no aircraft we know of could possibly move that fast or change in direction with such a sharp movement at that speed. Thanks to MUFON CMS
United Kingdom Sightings
Dawlish Devon – On August 23, 2014, I took two photos of a Probe checking out a R.N.L.I. Lifeboats Rescuer at a Dawlish air show. I could see the object, but other people did not seem to see it. I would like to know if that Rescuer could see it. The Probe then flew back into the sea. I have seen many USOs In this area of Devon. This is fascinating. The two photos were taken 4:00 or 4:30 PM. Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com
Bolsover — On the night of August 23, 2014 I was standing on my balcony watching various satellites and meteors in a beautifully clear night sky. I noticed something moving to the south and realized I was looking at 7 or 8 chevron shaped objects flying north very fast on a straight path. I was fixed staring at the objects as they flew directly overhead. The objects looked kind of dark orange or red with no exterior lights. The surface looked to have a matt finish. I felt the hairs on the back of my neck standing up and goose bumps. They were not aircraft and NOT birds. They had a solid looking exterior and must have been travelling extremely fast as they traversed the entire sky in less than 30 seconds. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Verkeerslicht gefotografeerd op Mars?
Verkeerslicht gefotografeerd op Mars?
Een Britse UFO-jager die elke dag de foto’s van Marswagen Curiosity op de website van NASA bestudeert, zegt een verkeerslicht te hebben gezien op de rode planeet. Het gaat om een foto die op 19 september door Curiosity is gemaakt op Mars.
“Ik volg de foto’s van NASA vanaf het begin en surf iedere dag naar de website om de nieuwe beelden te bestuderen,” citeert de Western Daily Press Joe Smith. “Toen ik deze foto zag dacht ik: ‘hier is iets vreemds aan de hand’.”
Hoewel Smith gelooft dat het object op de foto ‘duidelijk is ontworpen door een intelligent wezen’, gaat het hoogstwaarschijnlijk om een vreemd gevormde rots.
Enkele dagen geleden zag Paul Scott Anderson van The Meridiani Journal een bizarre ‘bal’ op Mars. Volgens wetenschappers van het Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in Californië was het een rots die zijn bolvorm had te danken aan concretie, een proces waarbij mineralen hard en compact worden.
Het is niet de eerste keer dat UFO-jagers vreemde objecten zien op foto’s van Mars. Eerder werden al een leguaan, een vinger, een schedel en een dijbeen ‘gezien’ op de rode planeet.

Witness said: A UFO can be seen passing quickly in this video, displayed today, 09/26/2014, in the main tv news of the world, showing the company Air France strike, probably hovering Paris yesterday.
From The F.B.I : Vault – Incident File #2 – Guy Hottel
From The F.B.I : Vault – Incident File #2 – Guy Hottel
The saucers were described as being circular in shape with raised centers, approximately 50 feet in diameter. Each one was occupied by three bodies of human shape but only three feet tall, dressed in metallic cloth of a very fine texture. Each body was bandaged in a manner similar to the blackout suits used by speed fliers and test pilots.

Paranormics wishes to be able to provide a conduit to Ufology for newcomers to this field. Many times when you are talking/debating with a UFO skeptic one of the first things out of their mouths is where’s the proof? Show me something real, something from a reputable, established, respected, and most of all connected source. Most of the time providing that kind of evidence on demand is hard to do. Making your discussion difficult to sway in your favour under the scrutiny of bare scepticism. Youtube.com videos are just not going cut through that kind of resistance.
Some people will just plain old never believe that we are not alone in the Universe. A UFO could land on their house , vaporize the dog, eat their Rhododendrons, and abduct them and still… nothing. It just is not a possibility for them to believe. It must shake their believe systems too much for comfort. But for the rest of the people, the more rational in the crowd. There is just one source you should point them too. It covers all the bases that the rational sceptic will appreciate.
The source of this thoroughly vetted material is from the United States Federal Government’s own Federal Bureau of Investigations. You remember them, Mulder and Scully worked for them. Yes that F.B.I.
Notice the official domain name : fbi.gov, the vault is just a subsection from the official domain.
The F.B.I describes it as follows:
“The Vault” is our new electronic reading room, featuring 6,700 files and other media which were scanned into digital copies from paper in order to read these at your convenience in your home or office. Contained here are many of the records formerly posted on our site but removed as requests diminished; files from our previous electronic reading room, and new, previously unreleased files.

From The F.B.I : Vault – Incident Files – The Story of Guy Hottel
Guy L. Hottel was born around 1902. He was a graduate of George Washington University in Washington, D.C., where he was a star football player. He was later inducted into the university’s athletic hall of fame. He entered the FBI as a special agent in 1934. In December 1936, he was named acting head of the FBI’s Washington Field Office; he was appointed special agent in charge the following May and served until March 1941. Hottel was re-appointed special agent in charge in February 1943 and served until 1951, when he took a position in the Identification Division. He retired in 1955. Hottel was married three times and had two sons. Following his FBI career, Hottel served as executive secretary of the Horseman’s Benevolent Association. He died in June 1990.
In 1950, the FBI told Director J. Edgar Hoover that three large flying saucers containing alien cosmonauts were recovered in New Mexico. The FBI has finally explained the memo about the saucer sent to Hoover — and, however inadvertently, provided a clinic in how to assess a secret intelligence report.
The information concerning Mr. Hottel is in regard to a March 22, 1950 memo he sent to the FBI Director concerning flying saucers. Like all memos to FBI Headquarters at that time, it was addressed to Manager J. Edgar Hoover and recorded and indexed in FBI records. The topic of the memo was anything but ordinary. It related a story told to one of our representatives by a third party who said an Air Force researcher had reported that three “flying saucers” were recovered in New Mexico. After relaying an informant’s claim the saucers were discovered since the government’s “high-powered radar” in the place had interfered with “the commanding mechanism of the saucers,” the memo ends simply by saying that “[n]o additional evaluation was attempted” concerning the issue by the FBI agent.
You can see why the FBI would feel the need to put this in context. “An investigator from the Air Force reported that three so-called flying saucers had been recovered in New Mexico,” Hottel wrote Hoover on March 22, 1950. “They were described as being circular in shape with raised centers, approximately 50 meters in diameter.” Inside were Jawa-like creatures, “three bodies of human shape but only 3 feet tall, dressed in metallic cloth of a very fine texture,” which Hottel’s source analogized to test pilot blackout suits. And according to Hottel’s “informant,” whose name is blacked out, high-powered government radar arrays in New Mexico are “believed [to interfere] with the controlling mechanism of the saucers.”
So what’s the real story? A few facts to keep in mind:
First, the Hottel memo isn’t new. It was first released publicly in the late 1970s and had been posted on the FBI website for several years prior to the launch of the Vault.
Second, the Hottel memo is dated nearly three years after the infamous events in Roswell in July 1947. There is no reason to believe the two are connected. The FBI file on Roswell (another popular page) is posted elsewhere on the Vault.
Third, as noted in an earlier story, the FBI has only occasionally been involved in investigating reports of UFOs and extraterrestrials. For a few years after the Roswell incident, Director Hoover did order his agents—at the request of the Air Force—to verify any UFO sightings. That practice ended in July 1950, four months after the Hottel memo, suggesting that our Washington Field Office didn’t think enough of that flying saucer story to look into it.
Finally, the Hottel memo does not prove the existence of UFOs; it is simply a second- or third-hand claim that we never investigated. Some people believe the memo repeats a hoax that was circulating at that time, but the Bureau’s files have no information to verify that theory.
Go on believing in UFOs if that’s your thing. You have just as much reason to do so after reading Hottel’s memo, since it doesn’t refute the existence of the downed saucers. Just remember that intelligence reports that seem like smoking guns are usually more smoke than gun.
Walter Cronkite was the face of CBS News from 1962 to 1981, when stories ranged from the John F. Kennedy assassination to the Iranian hostage crisis. According to UFO researcher Bill Knell (more on him below), in the 1950s Cronkite was part of a pool of news reporters brought out to a small South Pacific island to watch the test of a new Air Force missile…a large disc-type UFO appeared on the scene. Cronkite guessed that the object was about 50-60 feet in diameter, a dull grey color and had no visible means of propulsion. As Air Force guards ran toward the UFO with their dogs, the disc hovered about 30 feet off of the ground. Bill Knell’s claim: In the 1950s Cronkite was part of a pool of News Reporters brought out to a small South Pacific island to watch the test of a new Air Force missile. After a short inspection of the new system by the reporters, they were lead to an area that was a safe distance from the launch site. The missile was mounted on a specially-built launcher that was attached to a cement base. It was obvious that the area had been quickly built just for the test. The details about the missile were going to be given to the reporters in he form of hand-out sheets and press releases after the test. Cronkite mentioned that he and the other reporters had been warned that photography of the missile test and any audio transmissions or recordings by the press were forbidden. They would have to give a written account of the event. Just as the test was ready to proceed, everyone was writing as fast as they could. As Air Force Security personnel walked around the perimeter of the test area with guard dogs and the news reporters watched, the missile was fired-up and about to be released. Just then, a large disc-type UFO appeared on the scene.
Cronkite guessed that the object was about 50-60 feet in diameter, a dull grey color and had no visible means of propulsion. Because the noise of activity around him and the missile engine was so loud, he couldn’t tell whether the disc made any noise. He did not notice any coming directly from the object. As Air Force guards ran toward the UFO with their dogs, the disc hovered about 30 feet off of the ground. It suddenly sent out a blue beam of light which struck the missile, a guard and a dog all at the same time.
The missile was frozen in mid-air about 70 feet from the launcher as it had taken off. A guard was frozen in mid-step and a dog frozen in mid-air as it had jumped at the disc. Cronkite reminded me that this all happened within the space of about five minutes or less. Suddenly, the missile exploded! After that, the disc vanished. The guard and dog looked alright, but were quickly taken away by medical personnel always present at tests in case anyone became injured. At the same time, guards rapidly ushered the reporters into a concrete observation bunker. After about thirty minutes of sitting in that hot box, they were brought out into the air again and addressed by an Air Force Colonel.
In Papua New Guinea, a type of violence usually committed against women has increasingly targeted men: attacks on people accused of practicing witchcraft.
Witchcraft accusations and the subsequent attacks on the accused have plagued communities in Papua New Guinea for years. Now, in a new report, anthropologist Dan Jorgensen of the University of Western Ontario described seven cases that involved the killings, beatings and gruesome torture of male victims.
The cases, which occurred near the village of Telefomin, may hold clues to the roots of violence, Jorgensen said.
“The temptation is to blame [the witchcraft-related violence] on the culture” and the backwardness of the beliefs that are allegedly causing all this trouble, Jorgensen told Live Science. “And I actually think it is actually a false lead.”
The beginning
The first report of such attacks near Telefomin appeared in 2009 in the local paper The National, which described how a group of men was “tortured with weapons — including iron rods — before being hacked to death.”
In the new report, Jorgensen described six cases of male victims between ages 35 and 65, and one case of an attack on a 16-year-old boy. Three of the victims were killed in the attacks.
One of the survivors, Thomas (not his real name), a deacon in his 60s from the nearby village of Talavip, was passing through that area with his two sons when he was assaulted.(Jorgensen used pseudonyms for all the victims mentioned in the report to protect their identities.)
“They beat me and my sons with iron rods and covered me with [oil],” Thomas told Jorgensen. “One of them lit a match and almost killed me, but someone told him that if he did, he would die, too, so they didn’t set fire to me.”
Violence related to witchcraft and sorcery allegations in Papua New Guinea has attracted media attention in the last decade, and the number of such reports increased fivefold between 2000 and 2006, Jorgensen wrote in the report. (Witchcraft is generally believed to result from inherent powers, whereas it is believed that sorcery can be learned, and practiced by anyone with the right knowledge.)
The violence has even acquired its own acronym: SRK, for “sorcery-related killing.” In February 2013, a young mother was publically tortured and burned alive; in April 2013, a retired female schoolteacher was tortured and publically beheaded. The government reacted by introducing legislation to punish the perpetrators of such crimes.
But the violence against men in Telefomin may not stem from old beliefs about witches, Jorgensen wrote in the report. In the recent cases, the perpetrators are believed to be a group of young men who dropped out of school and remain unemployed. The locals refer to these men as “the Boys.”
A conflict between the Boys and the community — triggered by the lack of educational or economic opportunities for these men, and likely fueled by their drug use — may instead be the real reason behind the attacks.
Drugs, lack of education and impunity
The Boys may be jealous of other men in the community who are more successful, and may feel rage against their own community because of their own disadvantaged social and economic situations, Jorgensen said.
Many young people from Telefomin have been successful in getting their education and pursuing careers, but “these guys are basically [school] dropouts,” he said.
Increased costs might explain why the Boys’ didn’t pursue education, as the fees for attending the local high school increased over time, Jorgensen said. In 2004, when he was visiting the area, the school fees had risen so high that parents started choosing which of their kids would go to high school. “That basically shut the door for a lot of these guys,” he said, and there could be resentment about that.
Moreover, some villagers told Jorgensen that prior to the attacks, the Boys used marijuana and drank tea made from a plant called the angel’s trumpet. The drink “is a very powerful hallucinogen, that often produces violent fantasies and reactions,” he said.
The lack of response from the local police to the attacks also creates the impression of impunity, which exacerbates the issue of violence even more. “As villagers say, the attacks took place under the noses of two local policemen and the district administration,” Jorgensen wrote in the report.
It is not completely clear why the police did not take action to counteract those incidents, he said. The police sometimes say they feel outnumbered, while some villagers have suggested that the police were bribed to keep silent, he said.
When attempting to explain witchcraft-related violence, “the thing to look for is the nature of social and economic relationships between the various people involved,” Jorgensen said. – Live Science
Riverside, CA: On 9/22/14 Monday night about 9:30 PM from the SE direction I saw a ufo. I was sitting in my chair chanting (Mantra Meditation). From the South direction moving East towards where I was sitting a bright white round light moving slow. From the round bright light come out a dark blue edges on each side with small red lights It was very beautiful. The object did not move for about 15-20 sec. There was no noise. It did not fly off into the distance. It disappeared into doorway in the sky and it was gone. When I first saw this glowing object I thought its just like the other one I see. But this is the first time I saw a blue ufo coming out of the glowing bright white light. I was amazed to see its beauty. – MUFON CMS
UK Defence Intelligence suggests witnesses may have been exposed to UFO radiation
A witness to the UK’s most famous UFO sighting says he may be suffering from the effects of radiation, and in a recent press release, points out that a UK Defence Intelligence (DI) report suggests that he may have been exposed to UFO radiation. Meanwhile, the U.S. Air Force says they have lost his service and medical records from that time.
john-burroughsIt was reported this week that the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) has admitted that they will be releasing more UFO files, despite having said that they had already released all of their UFO files. This current revelation has been due to the efforts of John Burroughs, a military witness to the UK’s most famous UFO sighting.
Burroughs says he has been seeking official answers as to what he might have experienced that night in December, 1980 when he and others witnessed a UFO. At the time, Burroughs was a U.S. Air Force security officer stationed at RAF Bentwaters in Suffolk, which, along with nearby RAF Woodbridge, was on lease to the U.S. Air Force.
Since then he has had health problems and suspects that his UFO experience may have contributed to his condition. He says, “I have specific medical symptoms that are considered by some very knowledgeable people to be a fingerprint of a specific kind of radiation.” Read more at Open Minds

Maxisciences/Gentside Découverte - Le rover Curiosity aurait-il repéré un feu de circulation sur Mars ?
Un internaute britannique a lancé un nouveau buzz extraterrestre : sur l'une des photos prises par le rover Curiosity sur Mars, l'homme pense avoir repéré un... feu de signalisation
La planète Mars n'en finit pas de stimuler l'imagination des amateurs d'ufologie et de théories paranormales. Après l'iguane, le rat ou encore la poignée de porte, c'est un nouveau buzz qui vient de voir le jour sur le net. C'est un internaute britannique éditeur du site Artalien.tv qui en est à l'origine. Le point de départ : une photo de Curiosity.
Depuis le début de sa mission, le rover dévoile régulièrement de nouvelles photos du paysage martien qui l'entoure. Des clichés qui sont publiés au fur et à mesure par la NASA sur le net. Le 18 septembre dernier, Curiosity a ainsi une nouvelle fois utilisé sa caméra MastCam et a livré un aperçu du sol craquelé de la planète Mars. C'est sur cette image que Joseph White a expliqué avoir trouvé quelque chose de suspect.
"Je suis les photos de la NASA depuis le début et je les regarde tous les jours sur le site. J'ai vu celle-là et j'ai pensé 'attends, c'est assez étrange'", a-t-il expliqué repris par le Western Daily Press. La source de l'interrogation ? Dans le coin gauche, se trouve une sorte de pic ou de tige auquel semblent attachées quatre boules de taille différente. Ça ne vous rappelle rien ? Pourtant, une idée est rapidement venue à Joseph White.
Une rangée de lumières ?
"J'ai pensé ça ressemble à un feu de signalisation", a-t-il commenté. "J'ai posté l'image sur internet et des personnes m'ont dit aussi que cela ressemblait à un feu de signalisation - bien que des personnes aient dit que cela ressemblait à un totem". Comme on peut s'en douter, les images et la vidéo ont suscité de nombreuses réactions ainsi que de folles théories qui ont poussé le Britannique à revoir sa description.
Après quelques heures, "je pense maintenant que c'est peut-être une rangée de lumières, recouvertes par concrétion, là où c'était auparavant immergé sous l'eau. Le deuxième objet en forme de balle en partant du haut est plus petit (ampoule) - ce qui le recouvrait peut-être se trouve à droite à 30 centimètres environ. L'artéfact fait environ 30 centimètres ou plus mais pourrait atteindre les 60 cm ou plus", si l'on considère l'angle, a-t-il écrit sur Youtube.
Un objet "intelligemment conçu
" Quoi qu'il en soit, l'internaute en est sûr, il s'agit "clairement" d'un objet "intelligemment conçu". Pour l'heure, la NASA n'a pas répondu au buzz grandissant mais on peut parier qu'elle ne sera pas en accord avec l'hypothèse du Britannique. Il s'agirait plus vraisemblablement d'une roche érodée d'une façon inhabituelle par les éléments ou assemblée par un phénomène de concrétion qui consiste en l'accumulation et la solidification de minéraux.
Il y a quelques jours, un blogueur s'était déjà étonné "d'une étrange boule" à la surface de Mars avant qu'un scientifique de la NASA explique que c'était juste une roche sphérique certainement formée par concrétion.
UFO mania: Pope John XXIII met an alien before his death in 1961
UFO mania: Pope John XXIII met an alien before his death in 1961
Angelo Roncalli, the Good Pope, he met an alien before his death in 1961.
The meeting in the gardens of Castel Gandolo. All witnessed by Loris Francesco Capovilla. The private secretary of Pope John XXIII. The news appeared in a British newspaper and was later taken over by Sun in 1985. But no one paid any attention.
Today that meeting back in the limelight thanks to a video appeared on YouTube.
It goes around the world. That's the whole story of a "contact" very special. Walked. The lake is a short walk, the silence of one of the most beautiful towns in Italy. Walked. As they had done a thousand times in those beautiful summer afternoon. Side by side. As two friends. How ordinary people. Who want to sit a bit 'on the sidelines. Out of the daily routine. It was July. One afternoon in July 1961, when it happened. "They had over our heads. Lights. Were colored lights. Blue. Orange. Amber. A few minutes, and then ... ". And then, it happened. The imponderable. The impossible. What is also difficult to tell. So in one breath. The lights are spaceships. The spaceships are discs in the sky blue of an afternoon in Castel any Gandolo. They move silently. Are. For a few minutes on those two figures unmistakable walking side by side. How ordinary people. Then the contact. One of the spacecraft detaches from the flock. Lands. Stops "on the south side of the garden." The tailgate opens and the cockpit is something out. E '"absolutely human." Only. Just ... has a light around. A light that surrounds him. Fell to their knees. The two. Then he got up and went without hesitation to Man. Towards that being "absolutely human" wrapped in a soft light and delicate. Penetrating. They talked about. "For about twenty minutes." But they could not hear those voices. "I did not hear anything." But talking. Gesticulating. For twenty minutes. 1200, infinite seconds. Then the man turned and went back to where he had arrived. He looked at me. And he wept.

Complex alien organic molecule found in interstellar space
Complex alien organic molecule found in interstellar space
September 26, 2014 - Scientists have found the beginnings of life-bearing chemistry at the centre of the galaxy.
Iso-propyl cyanide has been detected in a star-forming cloud 27,000 light-years from Earth.
Its branched carbon structure is closer to the complex organic molecules of life than any previous finding from interstellar space.
The discovery suggests the building blocks of life may be widespread throughout our galaxy.
Various organic molecules have previously been discovered in interstellar space, but i-propyl cyanide is the first with a branched carbon backbone.
The branched structure is important as it shows that interstellar space could be the origin of more complex branched molecules, such as amino acids, that are necessary for life on Earth.
"Amino acids on Earth are the building blocks of proteins, and proteins are very important for life as we know it. The question in the background is: is there life somewhere else in the galaxy?"
Watch the skies
The molecule was detected in a giant gas cloud called Sagittarius B2, an active region of ongoing star formation in the centre of the Milky Way.
As stars are born in the cloud they heat up microscopic dust grains. Chemical reactions on the surface of the dust allow complex molecules like i-propyl cyanide to form.
The molecules emit radiation that was detected as radio waves by twenty 12m telescopes at the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (Alma) in Chile.
Each molecule produces a different "spectral fingerprint" of frequencies. "The game consists in matching these frequencies… to molecules that have been characterised in the laboratory," explained Dr Belloche.
"Our goal is to search for new complex organic molecules in the interstellar medium."
Previously discovered molecules in the Sagittarius B2 cloud include vinyl alcohol and ethyl formate, the chemical that gives raspberries their flavour and rum its smell.
But i-propyl cyanide is the largest and most complex organic molecule found to date - and the only one to share the branched atomic backbone of amino acids.
"The idea is to know whether the elements that are necessary for life to occur… can be found in other places in our galaxy."
Prof Matt Griffin, head of the school of physics and astronomy at Cardiff University, commented on the discovery.
"It's clearly very high-quality data - a very emphatic detection with multiple spectral signatures all seen together."
Prof Griffin added that the quantity of i-propyl cyanide detected is significant.
"There seems to be quite a lot of it, which would indicate that this more complex organic structure is possibly very common, maybe even the norm, when it comes to simple organic molecules in space.
"It's a step closer to discovering molecules that can be regarded as the building blocks or the precursors… of amino acids."
The hope is that amino acids will eventually be detected outside our Solar System. "That's what everyone would like to see," said Prof Griffin.
If amino acids are widespread throughout the galaxy, life may be also.
"So far we do not have the sensitivity to detect the signals from [amino acids]… in the interstellar medium," explained Dr Belloche. "The interstellar chemistry seems to be able to form these amino acids but at the moment we lack the evidence.
"Alma in the future may be able to do that, once the full capabilities are available."
Prof Griffin agreed this could be the first of many further discoveries from the "fantastically sensitive and powerful" Alma facility.

Rethinking the origins of the universe
Rethinking the origins of the universe
September 26, 2014 - Blackholes have long captured the public imagination and been the subject of popular culture, from Star Trek to Hollywood. They are the ultimate unknown – the blackest and most dense objects in the universe that do not even let light escape.
And as if they weren’t bizarre enough to begin with, now add this to the mix: they don’t exist.
“I’m still not over the shock,” said Mersini-Houghton. “We’ve been studying this problem for a more than 50 years and this solution gives us a lot to think about.”
For decades, black holes were thought to form when a massive star collapses under its own gravity to a single point in space – imagine the Earth being squished into a ball the size of a peanut – called a singularity. So the story went, an invisible membrane known as the event horizon surrounds the singularity and crossing this horizon means that you could never cross back. It’s the point where a black hole’s gravitational pull is so strong that nothing can escape it. The reason black holes are so bizarre is that it pits two fundamental theories of the universe against each other. Einstein’s theory of gravity predicts the formation of black holes but a fundamental law of quantum theory states that no information from the universe can ever disappear. Efforts to combine these two theories lead to mathematical nonsense, and became known as the information loss paradox.
In 1974, Stephen Hawking used quantum mechanics to show that black holes emit radiation. Since then, scientists have detected fingerprints in the cosmos that are consistent with this radiation, identifying an ever-increasing list of the universe’s black holes.
But now Mersini-Houghton describes an entirely new scenario.
There has been a great deal of study and debate surrounding the mysteries of black holes. The University of North Carolina's Laura Mersini-Houghton believes that the reason there is so much uncertainty is because black holes don't exist. Her paper has been submitted toArXiv, but has not been subjected to peer review.
She claims that as a star dies, it releases a type of radiation known as Hawking radiation - predicted by Professor Stephen Hawking. THE BLACK HOLE INFORMATION PARADOX One of the biggest unanswered questions about black holes is the so-called information paradox. Under current theories for black holes it is thought that nothing can escape from the...

GAAT NASA BINNENKORT BUITENAARDS LEVEN BEKENDMAKEN? ( VIDEO)
GAAT NASA BINNENKORT BUITENAARDS LEVEN BEKENDMAKEN? ( VIDEO)
Er zijn indicaties dat het misschien niet zolang meer zal duren voordat NASA eindelijk buitenaards leven bekend zal maken.
Afgelopen week werd er door NASA een symposium georganiseerd met de veelzeggende titel: Preparing for Discovery.
In 2009 was het Vaticaan gastheer van een conferentie waar wetenschappers, astronomen en religieuze leiders samen kwamen om de gevolgen te bespreken voor de mensheid wanneer er buitenaards leven zou worden ontdekt.
Eén van de conclusies op die conferentie was dat dat ook buitenaardsen zouden worden beschouwd als onderdeel van God's schepping en dat ze daarom onze “buitenaardse broeders” zullen zijn.
Nu lijkt het erop dat ook NASA voorzicht bewegingen maakt in de richting van bekendmaking van buitenaards leven.
Zo werd er door hen afgelopen week een symposium georganiseerd met de veelzeggende titel: Preparing for Discovery.
De reden dat NASA dit symposium hield met eveneens wetenschappers, theologen en astronomen was om te praten over en de wereld voor te bereiden op iets wat simpelweg niet langer verborgen kan worden gehouden en dat is het bestaan van buitenaards leven.
Waar voorheen bij NASA altijd sprake was van het ontdekken van leven op het niveau van microben, zo wordt er nu duidelijk gesproken over intelligent buitenaards leven.
Omdat niets bij toeval gebeurt en bij dit symposium ook theologen werden betrokken, toont dat aan dat het niet lang meer zal duren voordat NASA buitenaards leven officiëel bekend zal maken.
De kudde moet worden voorbereid op iets wat er allang is, maar officiëel nog niet bestaat. Zeker voor de aanhangers van allerlei verschillende geloven zal dit nog wel eens een grote schok kunnen betekenen in de nabije toekomst.
Met instituten als het Vaticaan en NASA moet je uiterst voorzichtig zijn want beiden hebben duidelijke satanische verbindingen.
Voor NASA is dat verband misschien wat minder voor de hand liggend, maar het is er wel degelijk.
Sinds de oprichting van NASA in 1958 is er alles aan gedaan om de occulte oorsprong van dit instituut voor het publiek verborgen te houden. De oorsprong die direct leidt naar wat men wel het “slechtste mens ooit” op aarde noemt, Alistair Crowley.
De hoogste rangen binnen NASA werden gedomineerd door leden van de geheime genootschappen zoals de Vrijmetselaars en voormalige Nazi’s, waarvan de meest bekende Wernher von Braun is.
Dus, wanneer je praat over het Vaticaan en NASA in verband met buitenaards leven, dan kan je ervan uitgaan dat ze geen onthullingen zullen doen in het belang van de mensheid.
Op een prachtige zonnige dag koerst een heteluchtballon statig door het luchtruim.
Een UFO die zich snel door de lucht verplaatst ziet ineens de ballon, remt….
Update: 25 september 2014
We ontvingen een bericht van een lezer (dank!) die zegt dat de onderstaande video waarin een witte orb/UFO een heteluchtballon benadert, nep zou zijn.
Hij zegt het volgende:
“Mooi ufo filmpje maar fake.
Door de andere filmpjes te bekijken van de uploader kan men dat ontdekken.
Het rare is dat de objecten op de filmpjes in het echt kunnen worden gezien op bijna vergelijkbare wijze.
Poging om getuigenissen van mensen en opname apparatuur te besmeuren?”
En inderdaad, als je naar wat andere video’s kijkt die deze Youtube uploader gemaakt heeft dan moet je je inderdaad afvragen of de onderstaande video wel echt is.
Het soort witte orbs/UFO’s zoals die in de video is te zien, wordt wereldwijd veel waargenomen. In dat kader is het niet zo vreemd als er één zou verschijnen in de buurt van een hete luchtballon.
Waar dit soort UFO’s ook regelmatig worden waargenomen is in de buurt bij chemtrails. Een voorbeeld daarvan is de volgende opname die een vloot van zeven van dergelijke orbs laat zien in de buurt van enkele spray sporen in de lucht.
De opname is gemaakt enkele weken geleden voor de kust van Normandië. De maker van de video zegt het volgende:
“Ik was aan boord van een jacht samen met een vriend. We waren aan het zeilen en genoten van de prachtig blauwe lucht boven Normandië. Ik keek naar een geweldig grote chemtrail die in de lucht hing terwijl ik lag te zonnebaden. Mijn aandacht werd even afgeleid en korte tijd keek ik even niet naar de lucht.
Toen ik weer keek zag ik een aantal vreemde kleine witte stippen vlak bij de grote chemtrail. Ik pakte mijn iPhone en nam op wat ik kon. Ik telde zeven witte objecten die zich langzaam door de lucht bewogen en ze leken als het ware af te dalen de chemtrail in. Het leek alsof de vloot onder leiding stond van een groter moederschip, de grootste orb/UFO”.
Origineel artikel: 24 september 2014
De hiernavolgende opname is een prachtig bewijs dat de kleine witte orbs/UFO’s die door ons luchtruim vliegen intelligent bestuurde objecten zijn.
Zoals je ziet op de volgende foto vliegt er een heteluchtballon en komt er van rechts een UFO in beeld.
In de volgende video zie je wat er vervolgens gebeurt.
De UFO die zich snel van rechts naar links door het beeld begeeft, ziet op een gegeven moment de UFO, remt af en blijft vervolgens even stilhangen.
Daarna daalt het langzaam en voorzichtig af richting luchtballon. Alsof het nog nooit zoiets heeft gezien en er als het ware even aan wil snuffelen.
Klaarblijkelijk vindt de UFO na inspectie een heteluchtballon toch niet de moeite waard en vervolgt zijn weg.
De opname is op 20 september gemaakt, maar er is verder niets bekend over de locatie of de omstandigheden.
TWEE MYSTERIES WAAROP NU UITEINDELIJK EEN ANTWOORD MOET KOMEN...
TWEE MYSTERIES WAAROP NU UITEINDELIJK EEN ANTWOORD MOET KOMEN...
Wat ons betreft zijn er twee mysteries waarvoor nu toch eindelijk eens een uitleg moet worden gevonden.
De man die deze antwoorden voor ons kan vinden is Minister Timmerfrans. Wij zullen hem daarbij een klein beetje helpen.
Het eerste mysterie is dat van de oranje bollen.
Het afgelopen jaar hebben we talloze artikelen geschreven over dit vreemde fenomeen dat zich wereldwijd voordoet, maar zeker ook in onze streken.
Het fenomeen van zich door de lucht bewegende, geluidloze oranje bollen. Soms alleen en soms in aanzienlijke formaties.
Ze worden waargenomen, mensen verbazen zich erover en soms wordt iemand die niets van UFO’s moet hebben, spontaan iemand die wel degelijk in ufo’s gelooft. Veel verder dan dat komen we eigenlijk niet.
Hoewel ze wereldwijd intussen door duizenden mensen zijn waargenomen, worden er geen vragen in de Tweede Kamer gesteld. Hoeveel wij keer op keer artikelen publiceren over oranje bollen wordt er geen enkel onderzoek opgestart.
Je zou toch zeggen dat wanneer zoiets indringends plaatsvindt boven welk land dan ook, een overheid wil weten wat daar rond vliegt?
Klaarblijkelijk niet.
Dus tijd voor drastische actie:
Bij deze verklaren wij de oranje bollen tot verkenningsbollen van Vladimir Poetin.
Misschien dat er nu in het kader van de nationale veiligheid eindelijk door Timmerfrans en kornuiten een degelijk onderzoek naar deze bollen kan worden gestart.
Ook afgelopen weekend was het weer raak. Wij ontvingen de volgende e-mail met prachtige foto (dank!):
Weekend geleden naar Frankrijk geweest regio Reims! Zondagmorgen om 7u +- stond ik naar buiten te staren met mijn fototoestel!
Toen zag ik 3 lichtbollen, vlug een foto getrokken, enkele seconden later was het al weg!
Tezamen met mijn vriendin hebben we nog zitten staren, helaas niets meer te bespeuren!!
Het tweede mysterie waarover nu eindelijk eens openheid van zaken gegeven dient te worden is het absurde aantal UFO’s dat af en aan vliegt bij het ISS ruimtestation.
Het is een bijna dagelijkse gebeurtenis waarover wij ook al talloze artikelen hebben geschreven.
Ook daar was het enkele dagen geleden weer raak.
Ze komen in alle soorten, maten en kleuren voor bij het ISS. Van gouden, sigaarvormige tot ronde gloeiende UFO’s zoals hierboven.
We weten dat Timmerfrans graag het woord voert bij de Verenigde Naties. Het liefst zo dramatisch mogelijk en een van een leugen meer of minder ligt deze man niet wakker.
Misschien dat hij daar nu eindelijk wat goeds kan doen door dit onderwerp daar aan te roeren en een antwoord te eisen voor de wereldbevolking.
Politici moeten eens gaan doen waarvoor ze aangesteld zijn en dat is het volk vertegenwoordigen.
En het volk wil weten wat er allemaal boven hun hoofden vliegt.
Europa probeert op 12 november een verkenner op het oppervlak van een komeet te zetten. Dat heeft de Europese ruimtevaartorganisatie ESA aangekondigd. Nog nooit is een verkenner geland op een komeet.
De sonde Rosetta met de verkenner Philae vliegt nu nog rond de komeet 67P/Tsjoerjoemov-Gerasimenko. Die ziet eruit als een badeendje. De plek van de landing was vorige week al bekendgemaakt. De verkenner moet naar de 'kop' van de komeet gaan. Daar is het redelijk vlak. Ook valt er genoeg zonlicht om de accu op te laden.
Als de landing daar toch niet door kan gaan, heeft de ESA een alternatief achter de hand. Dat is een plek op het 'lichaam' van de badeend. Ook daar zou de Philae op 12 november moeten landen.
Ontstaan zonnestelsel Het is de bedoeling dat de Rosetta op 12 november om 9.35 uur Belgische tijd de Philae loslaat. Dan zakt de verkenner langzaam naar het oppervlak. Na ongeveer 7 uur vliegen is de landing. Bijna een half uur later, iets na 17.00 uur, moet het signaal op aarde aankomen dat alles is geslaagd. Bij de alternatieve plek zou dat een paar uur later gebeuren.
De verkenner Philae moet het komende jaar onder meer gaan boren in het oppervlak van 67P, om vast te stellen waaruit de komeet bestaat. Dat kan wetenschappers een beter beeld geven van het ontstaan van ons zonnestelsel en daarmee van de aarde. De komeet 67P is namelijk ontstaan uit dezelfde wolk van gas en stof waaruit ook de aarde en de andere planeten zijn samengeklonterd. De aarde is in de miljarden jaren erna flink veranderd, de komeet niet of nauwelijks.
6,5 miljard kilometer; 1,3 miljard euro De Rosetta werd in maart 2004 gelanceerd en heeft inmiddels ongeveer 6,5 miljard kilometer op de teller staan. De route voerde drie keer langs de aarde en één keer langs Mars. De Rosetta had de zwaartekracht van de twee planeten nodig om genoeg snelheid te maken voor de oversteek naar de komeet.
De missie is een prestigeproject van Europa en kost ruim 1,3 miljard euro. De Nederlander Fred Jansen leidt het project.

8.8 billion habitable Earth-size planets exist in Milky Way alone
8.8 billion habitable Earth-size planets exist in Milky Way alone
By Seth Borenstein
WASHINGTON — Space is vast, but it may not be so lonely after all: A study finds the Milky Way is teeming with billions of planets that are about the size of Earth, orbit stars just like our sun, and exist in the Goldilocks zone — not too hot and not too cold for life.
Astronomers using NASA data have calculated for the first time that in our galaxy alone, there are at least 8.8 billion stars with Earth-size planets in the habitable temperature zone.
The study was published Monday in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
For perspective, that's more Earth-like planets than there are people on Earth.
As for what it says about the odds that there is life somewhere out there, it means "just in our Milky Way galaxy alone, that's 8.8 billion throws of the biological dice," said study co-author Geoff Marcy, a longtime planet hunter from the University of California at Berkeley.
The next step, scientists say, is to look for atmospheres on these planets with powerful space telescopes that have yet to be launched. That would yield further clues to whether any of these planets do, in fact, harbor life.
The findings also raise a blaring question, Marcy said: If we aren't alone, why is "there a deafening silence in our Milky Way galaxy from advanced civilizations?"
In the Milky Way, about 1 in 5 stars that are like our sun in size, color and age have planets that are roughly Earth's size and are in the habitable zone where life-crucial water can be liquid, according to intricate calculations based on four years of observations from NASA's now-crippled Kepler telescope.
If people on Earth could only travel in deep space, "you'd probably see a lot of traffic jams," Bill Borucki, NASA's chief Kepler scientist, joked Monday.
The Kepler telescope peered at 42,000 stars, examining just a tiny slice of our galaxy to see how many planets like Earth are out there. Scientists then extrapolated that figure to the rest of the galaxy, which has hundreds of billions of stars.
For the first time, scientists calculated — not estimated — what percent of stars that are just like our sun have planets similar to Earth: 22 percent, with a margin of error of plus or minus 8 percentage points.
Kepler scientist Natalie Batalha said there is still more data to pore over before this can be considered a final figure.
There are about 200 billion stars in our galaxy, with 40 billion of them like our sun, Marcy said. One of his co-authors put the number of sun-like stars closer to 50 billion, meaning there would be at least 11 billion planets like ours.
Based on the 1-in-5 estimate, the closest Earth-size planet that is in the habitable temperature zone and circles a sun-like star is probably within 70 trillion miles of Earth, Marcy said.
And the 8.8 billion Earth-size planets figure is only a start. That's because scientists were looking only at sun-like stars, which are not the most common stars.
An earlier study found that 15 percent of the more common red dwarf stars have Earth-size planets that are close-in enough to be in the not-too-hot, not-too-cold Goldilocks Zone.
Put those together and that's probably 40 billion right-size, right-place planets, Marcy said.
And that's just our galaxy. There are billions of other galaxies.
Scientists at a Kepler science conference Monday said they have found 833 new candidate planets with the space telescope, bringing the total of planets they've spotted to 3,538, but most aren't candidates for life.
Kepler has identified only 10 planets that are about Earth's size circling sun-like stars and are in the habitable zone, including one called Kepler 69-c.
Because there are probably hundreds of planets missed for every one found, the study did intricate extrapolations to come up with the 22 percent figure — a calculation that outside scientists say is fair.
"Everything they've done looks legitimate," said MIT astronomer Sara Seager.
As a level headed, well-educated man trained in the technical sciences, the last thing Edward ever expected to witness was a Glowing Blue Sphere UFO.
Mid-September 1982: location Westchester County in the town of Mount Kisco, NY, population eleven thousand. Edward was in his second floor bedroom, glancing out of his window he noticed red glow in the sky.
“I thought someone had set off a firework and I looked more intently.”
He watched as the red glow moved from right to left in his southward field of view of the sky. The object seemed very strange to him, only then did he realize that the craft had no wings.
Edward tells us, “The front part of the craft was a glowing blue sphere, it was light blue. Attached to the sphere at the rear was a brightly glowing/pulsating orange/red cylinder the length of which was about twice the diameter of the blue sphere. The diameter of the cylinder was about one quarter of the diameter of the sphere and projected straight back parallel to the direction of flight for about two or three sphere diameters. I thought to myself that the cylinder was the power source driving the sphere forward. The craft made no noise that he could hear.”
As a scientifically trained person he struggled to explain the sighting in common terms.
“Without any reference it is always difficult to tell whether an object traveling in space is far or near, especially if the surfaces are smooth.”
Edward estimates that the Glowing Blue Sphere was about the size of a Boeing 747 or larger and flying at 2000ft in altitude at about 500 mph. He says that it was only in view for about 15 seconds.
“Of course, it could have been larger and further away.”
When Edward lost sight of the craft he rushed downstairs and exclaimed to his wife Audrey that he had seen a UFO.
“She looked at him very skeptically.”
The couple had been awaiting the impending birth of their son. His wife Audrey just wrote the whole thing off as her husband’s birthing nerves.
However, the next day Edward that noted in the New York Times, there was a small article that mentioned an unidentified craft that had been sighted by several people on Long Island. It had been tracked on radar as coming over the Canadian border flying south until it reached Atlanta and then it turned abruptly east and headed out into the Atlantic.
A young man, Ronnie Austin and his girlfriend, Phyllis Bruce (both 18) had driven to Mt. Vernon, Illinois, to attend a drive-in movie, “The Great Escape”. At around 11:30 PM they departed on Route 15 heading east for home, which was Wayne City. Phyllis had gotten angry with him, and as they drove along past the airport, Ronnie leaned over to speak to her. As he did this, he glanced out of the window to the south and saw a big white object moving along at treetop level, about 20-degrees above the horizon to the southwest. He described it as fuzzy and about the size of a washtub. Both witnesses watched, casually talking about the light for several minutes.
Then they discovered that the light seemed to be keeping pace with them. Ronnie reported that when he speeded the car up, the object seemed to speed up. Also, when he decelerated, the object seemed to slow down, too. This continued, as indicated by the map included in this report. At first the light was on the south side of the car; then it crossed over in front to the north side. The transition took place when they were about 6 miles west of the Orchardville Road intersection. The object had been on their right (south) and keeping up with them, when all at once the object headed for the car. It appeared to get within a few hundred feet and then it suddenly gained altitude and stopped for several seconds over an electronic relay tower. Then the light shot across the road to the north side to the left of the car. It maintained this position for a while about 500 feet distant. They then turned north on the gravel road leading to Phyllis’ home, which was approximately 1.5 miles away. The object was now on their right. Upon arrival, Phyllis’ sister Forestine came outside to observe the thing, which was now in the southeast. The object appeared to move closer, so went inside, turned out the lights and watched through a window. After 15 minutes had passed, Ronnie decided he had better go home. He made a run for the car.
As soon as he pulled away from the Bruce home, the object began to follow. In our interview with the boy’s father (Orville) on August 12, he told us that this is what scared Ronnie, the thought that the UFO was waiting for him to be alone before it took off after him. He had to head south and the object was on his left now. When he turned east onto another gravel road, the object suddenly shot diagonally ahead of him over a barn about a mile away, just beyond the T-road. The object now changed from a brilliant white to a duller or dimmer light with an orange tinge. Ronnie said he “really poured the coal” to the car and must have been doing 120 mph when he topped the hill on the gravel road. Then, he reported, the object flared bright orange and came straight toward him at high speed. It hovered over the car, within 100′. Just before it hovered it had swerved upward and Ronnie judged its size as that of an automobile. At the point right over the car his radio (tuned to WLS) went crazy with static, which was described as a loud whining sound..
At that time he noticed a “cooling effect”. The object made another pass at the car, this time west to east, and at this point where the object was again overhead, the engine of the car started missing. The object proceeded back to its position over the barn, hovered, changed to a duller orange. This small road running east to west is only about a mile long and the events that took place according to the witness indicates an increase in activity by the object, which really had the boy scared by now. Ronnie now turned north at the intersection (extension of road not shown) and headed for home which was over 3 miles away. The object followed him again. As he headed west down the lane leading to his home, the object cut across the road behind him to the left. He spun his car around in the driveway in front of the house, got out of the car and ran inside. The object was now above another farmhouse in the east about 300 yards away. When Ronnie woke his parents, they thought he had gone crazy. He told them that “it” had chased him home. He could hardly talk; every third or fourth word would trail off. Mr. Austin thought that somebody had chased the boy and was trying to hurt him, so he grabbed the shotgun as he went out the door. Ronnie told him that it wouldn’t do any good. Orville Austin told us that when he saw the object hovering over the field, he understood what the boy was trying to say. He put the gun down. The object started to move closer again so they went into the kitchen and turned out the lights, watching through the windows. Mr. Austin felt that the object was attracted by the lights. Then Ronnie told him to call the police. Orville tried but the phone was dead. Later, the phone was operating and he called Fairfield Police. He said that they thought he was joking. He wanted them to contact Scott Air Force Base which was 80 miles to the northwest. It was about l2:25 A.M. now.
At this time Ronnie’s parents saw that he needed medical aid. They called Dr. Konarski of Fairfield and he told them what to give him. When the police arrived, they saw the “object”, too. Several friends and neighbors watched this “object” and at one time Ronnie got scared and ran back into the house. Several buddies of Ronnie’s watched an object until 4:00 in the morning. Investigated by Indiana Unit No. 1, NICAP.
This is one of the best EVER – at 17:43 on the clip below dogs are barking at some kind of small alien being – then they attack and kill it, and the owner takes his camera and YIKES…….You gotta see this thing.

Alien Creature, or Chupacabra shot dead by a Colombian Farmer!
Thirdphaseofmoon has decided to release this video due to its Authenticity and Interview with Pablo Ortes. The Farmer claims that he has taken the body home, and has put the Alien body on ice!
Around the time of the video, people had been reporting that something was killing goats, dogs and other farm animals.
Pablo Ortes noticed that his dogs were acting weird by barking hysterically.
So he and another person grabbed a camera and went out to investigate.
That’s when the creature that’s been attacking livestock finally showed itself.
The creature came out from some bushes and Pablo quickly shot it with his rifle.
Upon further inspection, they discovered that the creature was an alien creature that is unlike anything we’ve ever seen. Where did it come from, and are there more of these? So many underground caverns in Columbia – a breeding ground for strangeness.
Scott Waring, author of UFO Sightings Daily, says, ”this was emailed into me, about these long underwater structures, but nearby it I found 16 round objects in two groups of eight that look like disks at the bottom of the ocean…in flight formation. Very unique and may be linked to the 1940s Battle of Los Angeles UFOs seen over the city. They are at the edge of Santa Monica and Marina Del Rey.”

Coordinates for 16 round structures.

Waring says, “The long structures are all pointing to each other and in the center between them all the area is pixalated and obscured…thus evidence that something is being hidden from the publics view. Most likely and entrance area to an underwater alien base. This could be an ancient one and not necessarily a currently used base.”
UFO mania: More anomalies spotted in Mars photographs
UFO mania: More anomalies spotted in Mars photographs
Two more unusually shaped rock formations have been discovered on the surface of the Red Planet.
Thanks to the plethora of high quality images returned by NASA's rovers, Mars has become a prime example of how the brain can be tricked in to interpreting an otherwise abstract pattern as something of significance - a phenomenon known as pareidolia.
The first of the two most recent finds is a rock formation that looks a bit like a set of traffic lights. It consists of a tall stone with several small stones spaced vertically up the side of it.
"I saw this one and I thought 'hang on, that looks a bit strange,'" said space video journalist Joe Smith who first came across the object. "I posted it on the internet and people said they thought it looked like a set of traffic lights too - although some people did say it looked like a totem pole."
The second object, a perfectly spherical rock, was found a few days earlier by NASA themselves. Scientists explained that the ball was likely to have been formed by repeated compacting and hardening - a process known as concretion.

A star INSIDE a star: Scientists discover neutron star within a supergiant 200,000 light-years from Earth
A star INSIDE a star: Scientists discover neutron star within a supergiant 200,000 light-years from Earth
Astronomers have found a strange hybrid star using a telescope in Chile
The so-called Thorne-Żytkow object consists of a neutron star that was swallowed by a much larger red supergiant
Such objects were first predicted to exist in 1975 by astronomers Dr Kip Thorne and Dr Anna Żytkow
They are thought to occur when a neutron star collides with a red supergiant and is absorbed
The exact process by which this happens though is not well understood
HV 2112, the object that was found, is 200,000 light-years away
In 1975 astronomers Dr Kip Thorne and Dr Anna Żytkow predicted the existence of a star within a star, dubbed a Thorne-Żytkow object.
They suggested one would form when a neutron star collided with a supergiant, being swallowed inside its huge companion.
And now almost 40 years later the evidence for such an object has been found, providing astronomers with a fascinating and bizarre new space object to study.
Astronomers have found a strange double star using a telescope in Chile. The so-called Thorne-Żytkow object consists of a neutron star that was swallowed by a much larger red supergiant. This can occur if two stars are orbiting each other, as shown in this illustration, and one is pushed into the other
Thorne-Żytkow objects (TŻOs) are hybrids of red supergiant and neutron stars that, from the outside, resemble regular red supergiants such as Betelgeuse in Orion.
Their chemical signatures are different from such stars, however, due to the unique activity taking place inside.
And amazingly, while regular stars are powered by nuclear fusion in their cores, TŻOs are actually powered by the absorbed neutron star.
The discovery of one of these incredible objects was announced earlier this year, reports Amy Teitel for Motherboard.
The astronomers made their discovery with the 6.5-metre (21.3 feet) Magellan Clay telescope on Las Campanas in Chile.
They examined the spectrum of light emitted from apparent red supergiants, which tells them what elements are present.
When the spectrum of one particular star - HV 2112 in the Small Magellanic Cloud 200,000 light-years away - was first displayed, the observers were quite surprised by some of the unusual features.
Such objects were first predicted to exist in 1975 by astronomers Dr Kip Thorne and Dr Anna Żytkow. They are thought to occur when a neutron star (shown in illustration) collides with a red supergiant and is absorbed. The exact process by which this happens though is not well understood
Project leader Dr Emily Levesque of the University of Colorado Boulder and her colleagues took a close look at the subtle lines in the spectrum and found that it contained excess rubidium, lithium and molybdenum.
WHAT IS A NEUTRON STAR?
When the core of a massive star undergoes gravitational collapse at the end of its life, protons and electrons are literally scrunched together, leaving behind one of nature's most wondrous creations: a neutron star.
Neutron stars cram roughly 1.3 to 2.5 solar masses into a city-sized sphere perhaps 12 miles (20 kilometers) across.
Matter is packed so tightly that a sugar-cube-sized amount of material would weigh more than 1 billion tons, about the same as Mount Everest.
Past research has shown that normal stellar processes can create each of these elements, but high abundances of all three of these at the temperatures typical of red supergiants is a unique signature of TŻOs.
‘Studying these objects is exciting because it represents a completely new model of how stellar interiors can work,’ said Dr Levesque.
‘In these interiors we also have a new way of producing heavy elements in our universe.
‘You've heard that everything is made of “star stuff” - inside these stars we might now have a new way to make some of it.’
And Dr Żytkow, who has now seen her prediction be validated, said: ‘I am extremely happy that observational confirmation of our theoretical prediction has started to emerge.’
‘Since Kip Thorne and I proposed our models of stars with neutron cores, people were not able to disprove our work.
‘If theory is sound, experimental confirmation shows up sooner or later.
‘So it was a matter of identification of a promising group of stars, getting telescope time and proceeding with the project.’
The astronomers made their discovery with the 6.5-meter Magellan Clay telescope on Las Campanas, in Chile (pictured). They examined the spectrum of light emitted from apparent red supergiants, which tells them what elements are present, and found one called HV 2112 was likely one of these bizarre hybrid objects
The team is careful to point out that HV 2112 displays some chemical characteristics that don't quite match theoretical models.
Co-author of the study Dr Philip Massey of Lowell Observatory in Flagstarr, Arizona points out: ‘We could, of course, be wrong.
‘There are some minor inconsistencies between some of the details of what we found and what theory predicts.
‘But the theoretical predictions are quite old, and there have been a lot of improvements in the theory since then.
‘Hopefully our discovery will spur additional work on the theoretical side now.’
Paul Hellyer recently stirred up global controversy when he testified before a half-dozen former US representatives that aliens exist. As Canada’s former Minister of Defence, Hellyer is the first and only cabinet-ranking official from a G8 nation to publicly state a belief in extraterrestrials.
MOTHERBOARD visits Paul Hellyer at his cottage in the sleepy and scenic woods of Ontario to find out more about his extraterrestrial claims. This is Paul Hellyer in real life.

Daytime UFO over Seattle, Washington on 23rd September 2014
Daytime UFO over Seattle, Washington on 23rd September 2014
(N.Morgan) Of all of the sightings we’ve seen lately, this one is by far one of the most odd and dazzling. Above the skies of Houston Texas, people were treated to the sight of a strange UFO presence. Again, one has to ponder what is going on with all of these sightings and the boldness being displayed, during the sightings.
A brief history of UFOs: An unidentified flying object, or UFO, in its most general definition, is any apparent anomaly in the sky that is not identifiable as a known object or phenomenon. Such anomalies may later be identified, but depending on the evidence or lack of evidence, such an identification may not be possible generally leaving the anomaly unexplained. While stories of unexplained apparitions have been told since antiquity, the term “UFO” (or “UFOB”) was officially created in 1953 by the United States Air Force (USAF) to serve as a catch-all for all such reports. It was stated that a “UFOB” was “any airborne object which by performance, aerodynamic characteristics, or unusual features, does not conform to any presently known aircraft or missile type, or which cannot be positively identified as a familiar object.”
As originally defined, the term was restricted to those fraction of cases which remained unidentified after investigation, with USAF interest being for potential national security reasons and/or “technical aspects.” (See Air Force Regulation 200-2.) During the late 1940s and through the 1950s, UFOs were often referred to popularly as “flying saucers” or “flying discs”. The term UFO became more widespread during the 1950s, at first in technical literature, but later in popular use. UFOs garnered considerable interest during the Cold War, an era associated with a heightened concern for national security.
Various studies have concluded that the phenomenon does not represent a threat to national security nor does it contain anything worthy of scientific pursuit (e.g., 1953 CIARobertson Panel, USAF Project Blue Book, Condon Committee). Culturally, the phenomenon has often been associated with extraterrestrial life or government-related conspiracy theories, and has become a popular theme in fiction.
An Arizona witness at Yuma recalls events from 38 years ago when a UFO moved close to family members at a drive-in movie theater, according to testimony in Case 60102 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting center.

The witness was at the drive-in with her mother, stepbrother and young daughter when dim lights were seen in the sky in September 1976.

“I simply assumed the dim lit lights were that of the windows of a passenger airplane,” the witness stated. “At this point I couldn’t see its shape – just the lights.”
But the object wasn’t moving.
“After about 20 to 30 minutes of glancing at what I assumed were window lights, I realized this ‘plane’ was not moving nor was it making any sound and realized it was not a plane. I stood up in the bed of the truck and told those with me to look. I began pointing at it because they couldn’t see it. Its windows were too dim.”
Then the object moved closer.
The witness first thought the object was a passenger plane until it seemed to hover in place. Pictured: Yuma, Arizona. (Credit: Google)
“It was a very dark object, but the closer it moved the better I could see its shape. It looked as if it had a wide, huge bell on top of it. When I saw it almost over our truck, my mother and stepbrother still couldn’t see it. A lady in a car next to us began trying to see it. It moved upward, tilted and that is when I saw the brighter lights on the bottom of this object. I was almost screaming for them to see it!”
As the object moved away, it appeared to be a saucer shape.
“At that moment it began moving, wobbling, and began going upward with its shape changing into a typical saucer shape. My stepbrother saw it at this point and said, ‘I see it! Look!’ At that time it began flopping from one side to the other several times. With each flop it got smaller like it was moving away. We were both tying to get my mother to see it, and she did at the point just before it went away. It was gone in a breath but left twinkly sparkles behind it. It looked as if it had gone through a door and closed it.”
As the object moved away, the witness could see that it was saucer-shaped. Pictured: Yuma, Arizona. (Credit: Google)
Yuma is a city in and the county seat of Yuma County, Arizona, population 77,515. Arizona MUFON is investigating. Arizona has a current UFO Alert Rating of 5 with a low number of recent reports nationally. Arizona had 10 UFO reports in August 2014 – the 19th highest reporting state – while California had 99 reports as the highest reporting state. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.
The UFO Alert Rating System is based on five levels – 1 through 5 – where states with 150 or more reports for the month are rated an Alert 1; states with 100 or more reports are rated an Alert 2; 25 reports or more for the month are rated an Alert 3; 13 or more reports are rated an Alert 4; and those states with less than 13 reports for the month are an Alert 5.
West Virginia witnesses at Elkins reported watching and following a low flying , triangle-shaped UFO that eventually appeared to cloak itself and disappear about 8:40 p.m. on September 25, 2014, according to testimony in Case 60101 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The reporting witness and his wife were driving south out of Elkins on Beverly Pike when two bright orange lights were observed low in the sky.
“The light on the right was higher than the one on the left, suggesting the object had just changed direction or was banking from a western direction of travel to a northern direction of travel,” the witness stated.

The couple moved closer to the object.
“We watched the lights get closer and appear level as the object was traveling due north in the opposite direction of travel from us. We noticed a third, dim white light in the front of the object, thus forming a triangle of lights with the two orange orbs to the rear/side.”
The witness described the object.
“As we got closer I noticed the orange lights were hourglass-shaped. Last night was very clear and devoid of any cloud cover. This made it possible to discern the shape of the object was indeed a triangle, flat black in color, reflecting no light.”
The witness said the object moved low over a fairly heavily populated area in Elkins, West Virginia. Pictured: Elkins, West Virginia. (Credit: Google)
The witness believes there may be many more witnesses out there.
“This is a heavily populated area with many brightly lit businesses. The object traveled directly over a huge shopping center with Wal-Mart and several neighborhoods. We pulled over at a Ford dealership to observe and watched as the object slowly passed by – much too slow for even a small Cessna and at a low altitude.”
The object was low enough in the sky for a good look.
“The altitude was roughly slightly lower than that of which an airplane would be if it was about to land. I’d estimate speed at around 30-40 knots. The scale of this thing was huge! It’s ‘wing’ span I would estimate around 100 yards. I am very familiar with general aviation and military aircraft and this was neither. I saw no discernible control surfaces, canopy, windows, or any other feature – just flat black with two orange lights and one white, dim light.”
The object did not appear to move away, but just disappeared.
“As the object passed by us, it disappeared as if using a cloaking device. All we could see was stars. Again, this is a very heavily populated and bustling area. Anyone traveling south on the Beverly Pike between 8:35 and 8:40 would have seen it, as it was flying parallel with the five-lane on the Wal-Mart side of the highway.”

Nicolas Cage has done some spooky things for his movie roles, including taking on the role of Johnny Blaze in the Ghost Rider films. The most unusual, even for Cage, was when he stayed not only in a haunted house in Louisiana, but also Dracula’s Castle.
The nephew of the renowned director Francis Ford Coppola, Nicolas had decided to change his last name to make it on his own merits. Taking on the last name of not-so-well-known Marvel Comics character Luke Cage (one of his favorites), he certainly distanced himself from his already famous relative. The way he became famous was apparently by taking odd roles and putting his own brand of strangeness into them.
To prepare for one of his least successful films, Ghost Rider: The Spirit of Vengeance, Cage had spent a night in Dracula’s Castle in Romania to “channel the energy,” said costar Idris Elba. Elba had seen him come on the set and noticed he had that “up all night” look about him.
That was when Nicolas Cage confessed he’d spent the night in the fabled ruins, and Elba could only ask why he did that.
Idris Elba explained Cage’s actions as well as he could.
“We were shooting in Romania, Transylvania, and he just went up there to spend the night, as you do. And then he walked away. True story.”
Cage also owned a haunted house in Louisiana from 2007 to 2009. He had been writing a horror novel and wanted some inspiration, so it only made sense to him that said inspiration should come from the home of a notorious serial killer.
The home had once belonged to Madame Lalaurie, a nineteenth century socialite known for torturing and murdering her slaves. Apparently a history of violence and suffering was all the house had to offer, because Nicolas Cage admitted he didn’t get very far with the novel despite it having been called the “most haunted house in America.”
Cage’s attraction to all things spooky seems to have no end, since he once starred as a man who thought he had become a vampire after getting involved with an allegedly undead lover.
The Left Behind actor may have gotten his start in spooky dealings when someone had allegedly told him his son Weston would be dead by the age of 15. That person was wrong, but the message may have played with Cage’s mind a bit much and created a curiosity about the things that go bump in the night.
Would you do what Nicolas Cage had done, and slept in a haunted house or even Dracula’s Castle to gain inspiration? – Inquisitr
Chinese restaurant sold ‘opium-laced noodles’ so addicted patrons would come back for more
A noodle shop owner in northern Shaanxi province was detained after he was discovered to have been adding parts of a poppy plant, from which opium is made, to food so that customers would keep coming back. The noodle shop’s owner was held for questioning and confessed that he purchased 2kg of poppy shells (the bud of the plant in which poppy seeds are found) for 600 yuan(£60, $100) in August.
He secretly added it to the food to lure in more customers. The owner was detained for 10 days. Poppy shells used to be an ingredient in a popular hot pot sauce until the product was banned. The restaurant’s activities came to light after one customer, Liu Juyou, 26, tested positive during a routine urine test under an anti-drink-driving programme. He said he never touched illegal substances, so was shocked by the test result.
Liu was detained for 15 days from September 3, unable to convince police that the drug, he suspected, might have come from the food from a noodle shop he frequented. Liu asked his family to help him test the theory, eating noodles at the restaurant and going home to take urine tests. When the relatives also tested positive for drugs, they alerted the police, who launched an investigation.
An anti-narcotics police agent said that chemicals from poppy, even poppy seed pods, could build up in the body – enough to get a positive for opiates on a drug test. If the food is ingested over a long period of time, it would have an addictive effect, he said. However, despite finding the restaurant culpable, Liu’s appeal against his detention was dismissed by police, who said their priority was to detect drugs and punish drug users. The mainland’s anti-drug law bans opium, heroin, morphine, marijuana and any other anaesthetic and psychotropic drugs which can be addictive. – SCMP
Looking for extraterrestrial life is akin to a search for a cosmic needle-in-a-haystack, as evidenced by the above incredible Hubble Space Telescope image showing approximately 10,000 galaxies.
In large part, thanks to NASA’s Kepler spacecraft, more than 1,400 planets have been identified beyond Earth.
A few days ago, NASA tried closing the gap between life on Earth and the possibilities of life elsewhere. The space agency and the Library of Congress (image below left) brought together scientists, historians, philosophers and theologians from around the world for a two-day symposium, “Preparing For Discovery.” Their agenda: To explore how we prepare for the inevitable discovery of extraterrestrial life, be it simple microbial organisms or intelligent beings.
“We’re looking at all scenarios about finding life. If you find microbes, that’s one thing. If you find intelligence, it’s another. And if they communicate, it’s something else, and depending on what they say, it’s something else!” said astronomer, symposium organizer and former chief NASA historian, Steven J. Dick.
“The idea is not to wait until we make a discovery, but to try and prepare the public for what the implications might be when such a discovery is made,” Dick told The Huffington Post. “I think the reason that NASA is backing this is because of all the recent activity in the discovery of exoplanets and the advances in astrobiology in general.
“People just consider it much more likely now that we’re going to find something — probably microbes first and maybe intelligence later,” he added. “The driving force behind this is from a scientific point of view that it seems much more likely now that we are going to find life at some point in the future.”
Among the many speakers at last week’s astrobiology symposium, one has raised a few international eyebrows in recent years.
“I believe [alien life exists], but I have no evidence. I would be really excited and it would make my understanding of my religion deeper and richer in ways that I can’t even predict yet, which is why it would be so exciting,” Brother Guy Consolmagno, a Jesuit brother, astronomer and Vatican planetary scientist told HuffPost senior science editor David Freeman.
Consolmagno has publicly stated his belief that “any entity — no matter how many tentacles it has — has a soul,” and he’s suggested that he would be happy to baptize any ETs, as long as they requested it.
“There has to be freedom to do science. Being a good scientist means admitting we never have the whole truth — there’s always more to learn.” Consolmagno also doesn’t think the public would panic when or if it’s revealed that alien life has been found.
“I really think it would be a three-day wonder and then we’d go back to worrying about reality TV or the crazy things going on in Washington — that’s the way human beings are. Because I think most people are like me: we expect it’s out there. And our reaction would be, ‘Wow, thank heavens. It’s about time.”
Earth is no longer the center of the universe, nor is it flat — at least that’s the currently accepted thinking among most scientists. And we now know, conclusively, that there are a lot more planets than the ones in our own solar system.
“The number of habitable worlds in our galaxy is certainly in the tens of billions, minimum, and we haven’t even talked about the moons. And the number of galaxies we can see, other than our own, is about 100 billion,” Seth Shostak, senior astronomer at California’s SETI Institute told HuffPost.
Watch this video zooming and panning through the night sky to show 10,000 galaxies photographed by the Hubble Space Telescope.
At the NASA/Library of Congress symposium, Shostak gave out some startling numbers about how many stars there are in the part of the universe that we can see. “It’s a big number: 10,000 billion, billion. And we know that most of those stars have planets — 70 or 80 percent. If all of those planets are sterile, and you’re the only interesting thing happening in the cosmos, then you are a miracle. That would be exceptional in the extreme. So, the middle-of-the-road approach is to say, ‘You’re not a miracle, you’re just another duck in a row of ducks.’”
“The bottom line of this,” Shostak said, “is something like one in five of all stars may have an analog to Earth. That’s a lot of habitable worlds, and, indeed, the number of Earths in our own galaxy might be on the order of 50 billion.”
Those are big numbers to ponder.
The D.C. conference included a great deal of discussion about the upcoming mission of the Hubble’s long-anticipated successor: the James Webb Space Telescope. As large as a tennis court, this deep space observatory is scheduled for a 2018 launch and will orbit beyond our moon. The Webb telescope will focus on new planetary discoveries and collect data from the atmospheres of those planets, looking for certain things that might point to what we would consider possible indicators of life.
HuffPost asked Dick, an astrobiologist, for his opinion on the continuing output of UFO reports around the world.
“I try to keep an open mind on this. Ninety-some percent can be explained by natural phenomena, etc. The question is what to do with the other 3 or 4 percent,” Dick said. “My opinion is that they should be studied further, on the one hand. By definition, they’re something that we don’t know what they are. They could be some physical, psychological or social phenomena that we don’t know about. But I think it’s jumping to a conclusion that they’re extraterrestrial. I don’t see that evidence.

I woke up about 2 AM with my cat napping between my ankles. He had curled up and started purring, no way in hell I was going to wake him up. I rolled over and went back to sleep.
At 9 AM, I woke up to my alarm, called a store to see if my application had gone through yet, and reached down to pet Gandalf. He hadn’t moved, which I thought was strange because he’s still young and doesn’t sit still for longer than 20 minutes. I started talking to him, which usually gets a churr in response. He was silent. I nudged him off my foot, when I realized he was stiff.
I put my hand on his chest, not breathing. I panicked and picked him up, absolutely rigid and cool to the touch. His tongue was out slightly, and I started crying. I had just lost a cat a month ago, right before we got Gandalf. I shook my boyfriend awake, telling him, “There’s something wrong with Gandalf wake up wake up!”
Then I heard a churr. Gandalf sat up and stretched, then attacked my boyfriends feet for moving under the covers. Boyfriend snapped at me for scaring him awake, and told me to lay back down for a bit before I got up. From waking up, to discovering my dead cat, to waking my boyfriend up couldn’t have taken more than two minutes, but I checked my phone and it said 10:30 AM.
All day I keep checking on Gandalf, the only strange thing about him is he hasn’t let me out of his sight since this morning. Combine that with the creepy alien kitty outside and I don’t think I’ll be sleeping tonight.
TL;DR: Woke up, cat was dead. Freaked out and woke up boyfriend, cat was not dead and attacked our feet. Missing an hour and a half. – KayleighAnn – Reddit.com
Thomas Jefferson, an otherwise brilliant man, refused to believe in the reality of meteorites reported fallen, as he deeply believed that no rock could 'float in the air only to later fall”, so 'inferiority' in 'intellect' is not an issue with those who cannot accept ghosts, demons or aliens' existence from others' reports; they, like Jefferson, are hamstrung and crippled by beliefs, contrary to any truth about the unseen world all around us, using a logic based on insufficient data of the true nature of reality.

As an abductee for my whole life, I have stumbled through unknowing, to suspicion, and then resistance, and counsel to offer rare insights and advice to detect and thwart alien soul and body tampering.
Published widely and recognized as an eloquent note in the chorus of barbaric yawps concerning experts who've never seen or confronted these myriad entities, personally for 45 years, I write, do radio interviews and assist filmmakers with background research.
At night, your astral body travels to realms from angelic to demonic, spirit worlds of myriad vibrational levels and the pictures that you see on the backs of your eyelids, while you R.E.M., are not dreams but visits, souvenirs of a greater reality.
Like goldfish who never suspect a greater world beyond the pond's surface, the limited awareness of humankind floats beneath the surface of a greater reality, groping, mouths agape in fish ignorance.
Aliens hybridize, and invade astrally to abduct, monitor, and possess, to entangle their energies with ours to ride the reincarnation roller coaster of our auras giving a new meaning to a silent invasion.
As an abductee, whenever I have been in the presence of tall reptilians, rage and hatred is palpable, from them; according to several psychics, who never met each other, I am a reincarnated Pleiades officer who was on a rescue mission to save Earth children from reptilian slavery and in the process, I and my crew were captured and hanged.
Most fascinating, without them ever seeing me, I have a noose-like scar from surgery on my neck, to remove discs that crushed my spinal cord , this lifetime, a vestigial remnant of reptilian vendetta exacted in this lifetime.
Earth is under invasion, one person at a time, and we are all alone, together.
These are my experiences, echoed in a link, at the end of the page of this journal entry.
I felt electric vibrations throughout my whole body while in bed and saw my body then separate and float out of my body, in astral abductions of my spiritual essence, which retained all of my predilections and discrimination, all the while leaving my chop-meat-DNA- contrived- body, bereft of spirit, behind, in bed.
At first glance, I believed that I had died!
Out of body, I had conveyor belt travels, vivid OBE sublime and terrifying experiences, at the hands of aliens, directly tied to my previously monitored thoughts, more proof of that alien-proprietary- monitored-consciousness, suffered by abductees.
I am a fifty year old happily married father of two extraordinary teens.
I am one who writes, landscapes, crafts his own ales, hunts mushrooms, breeds native giant silk moths, plays bass and drums and teaches.
My wife and I have been friends and lovers for over twenty years, and she supports my hobbies and writing with a skeptical and cautious approach which has helped to keep me centered.
I have seen different subspecies of alien entities since I was a young child living on Shore Road in Brooklyn until my later years as a resident of Long Island, and I am convinced that many others have also struggled to assess and grasp similar indigestible alien experiences which challenge everything we've ever been taught.
We were told by experts like Carl Sagan, who recently passed, that Earth is too far out in the 'boonies' of our galaxy to merit attention by E.T.s, but he was dead wrong, long before he was dead .
Earth is, and always has been, a crossroads for many highly technological lifeforms.
The mean-spirited ones, now doing salvage, are the vestigial remnants of a union that donated their DNA to set up this rare jewel of a preserve.
Good gamekeepers never let the animals within suspect that it is, indeed, a preserve.
THAT'S why, our planet looms as a seemingly rare botanical and animal jewel, in the context of so many other barren worlds, that we can discern in the Universe.
We, rather than having been divinely ordained for Earth, have been placed, and farmed throughout the galaxy, seen as someone else's property.
Abductions and their remnant elusive memories have opened all this for me, a confirmed atheist, UNTIL I saw aliens float me out of my body, in my bed, at night.
Then, I knew that they were more interested in an essence, that I never suspected I had: a soul.

A quantum leap in humankind' s intellectual development occurred in Sumer 6000 years ago when cuneiform writing was invented in order to record a dramatic starburst. Every pulsating thrust of the technology with which humankind surrounds itself today was initiated when a star died in a dramatic, brilliant explosion.
The psychological and cultural impact of the supernova on the inhabitants of Sumer was overwhelming. Literally “overnight” in evolutionary terms, the Sumerians gave the world a law code, the first love song, the first school system, the first parliament, and the first directory of pharmaceutical remedies. The origins of contemporary Western culture were nursed in Sumer, the cradle of civilization. The roots of the Judeo-Christian religious beliefs grew from the “tree of knowledge,” the Garden of Eden, which tradition places in that same area.
Today astronomers recognize the nearest and brightest supernova ever witnessed by humankind as Vela X, now a faintly flashing pulsar about 1300 light-years from our solar system. George Michanowsky, a specialist in Mesopotamian astronomy, saw how the very first and most fundamental symbol of Sumerian script was one which represented “star.” He went on to show how the first word ever written by a human soon became linked with the symbol for “deity,” thus communicating “star god.”
The great metaphysician Rudolf Steiner theorized that the people of our prehistory had been largely guided and directed by a higher order of beings who interacted and communicated with certain humans–the smartest, the strongest, the most intellectually flexible. Eventually these select humans produced what might be called demigods, divine human beings, who, in turn, could relay instructions from higher intelligences.
In effect, Steiner may have given us another definition of the semi- divine progeny that the ancient Hebrews named Nephilim,” which does, in fact, mean demigod, men of “great renown.”
Steiner went on to speculate that within the larger evolving human race are the descendents of those divine-human hybrid beings, men and women who are animated by higher ideals, who regard themselves as children of a divine, universal power. It need not be overemphasized that the larger body of humankind is devoted to the service of egotism, materialism, and selfish, personal interests.
Steiner believed that within what he termed the emerging “Sixth Post-Atlantean Race” would be children of the divine universal power who would be able to initiate those men and women who have developed their faculty of thought so that they might better unite themselves with the divine. The children of the divine universal power, those who have the “seed” within them, will be able to initiate the more advanced members of humankind. People so initiated will be able to receive revelations and perform what others will consider miracles. The initiates will go on to become the mediators between humankind and the higher intelligences.
The whole point of the efforts of these higher intelligences is to enable humankind to become more independent, more able to stand on its own feet without having to rely on the higher order of beings that directed us in ancient times.
Rudolf Steiner was born at Krajevic, Austria-Hungary (now Yugoslavia) on February 27, 1861. Although he had experienced encounters with the mystical and the unknown as a young child and was guided by an adept he would only refer to as the “Master,” Steiner's early academic accomplishments were in the scientific fields. His father had wished him to become a railway engineer, which led Rudolf into a study of mathematics, and seemed only to whet his appetite for the material sciences, leading him to pursue studies in medicine, chemistry, physics, as well as agriculture, architecture, art, drama, literature, and philosophy. Fascinated by the works of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Steiner began the extensive task of editing Goethe's scientific papers, and from 1889 to 1896 worked on this project. It was also during this period that Steiner wrote his own highly acclaimed The Philosophy of Freedom.
When he was in his late thirties (c. 1897), Steiner received a revelation of what he believed was the turning point in human spiritual history, the incarnation of the Divine Being known as the Christ. In the twentieth century, Steiner said, humankind began to enter the “fullness of time” when the Christ principle, cosmic consciousness, might once again become manifest.
Steiner defined “Christ consciousness” as a transformative energy that greatly transcended orthodox Christianity. In Steiner's view, the Master Jesus became “christed” and thereby was able to present humankind with a dramatic example of what it means to achieve a complete activation of the spiritual seed within all human souls and to rise above all material considerations.
In Steiner's Tenth Lecture on the Gospel of St. Luke, he reflects that just as a plant cannot unfold its blossom immediately after the seed has been sown, so has humankind had to progress from stage to stage until the right knowledge could be brought to maturity at the right time.
To Steiner, the Christ energy is the catalyst that germinates the seed that great Spirit Beings implanted within their human offspring. There were, of course, the physical seeds of male and female, which intermingled to produce the whole human being. But there was also something in each human that did not arise from the blending of the two physical seeds. There was, so to speak, a “virgin birth,” a something ineffable, Steiner says, which somehow flowed. into the process of germination from quite a different source: “
In 1913, Steiner set about forming his own group, the Anthroposophical Society, which he declared would be about the utilization of “human wisdom” (anthro=man; sophy=wisdom)to achieve contact with the spiritual world. The human intellect, Steiner insisted, could be trained to rise above material concerns and to perceive a greater spiritual reality. The human consciousness had the ability to activate the seed that the great Spirit Beings had implanted within their human offspring.
Steiner emphasized that the path to such contact might best be attained by a proper application of meditation. When human consciousness had been raised to the spiritual level where it can experience the eternal element that is limited by neither birth nor death, then it can comprehend its own eternality and its ability to be born again in subsequent life existences.
******
Such spiritual prophets as Steiner have foretold that humankind is now entering the “fullness” of time when cosmic consciousness, can once again become manifest. Sensitive observers of the contemporary scene have taken careful note of the fact that thousands of men and women throughout the world are being activated by a heightened state of awareness that comes to them in dreams, visions, and strange memories. These individuals are feeling the seed bringing forth new life within them and they are concerned about the spiritual needs of the human souls around them.
Spiritual history is replete with many sincere and insightful prophets and teachers who lived before the Master Jesus, but, Steiner said, they could speak to their fellows only by using the faculties transmitted through their earthly natures. They must use the energy and the wisdom of Earth.
According to Steiner, Jesus tapped into an awareness of that higher energy which comes from the realm of the Divine. He knew that a speck of this energy no larger than a mustard seed could exalt the human psyche. He knew that even the slightest infusion of this energy into the physical seed of male and female would transform the individual into a citizen of a higher dimension of reality, the “Kingdom of God.” And, at the same time,.he taught that the doorway to enter such a wondrous kingdom lay within the heart of each sincere pilgrim who sought to join him there.
Perhaps something truly was added to the energy of the Earth Mother at that time–call it the Holy Spirit for lack of a better term—and hundreds of thousands of men and women are being activated by that same cosmic energy today as it is received in their dreams, visions, and memories. All over the planet, contemporary citizens of Earth are having the seed within them, their spiritual legacy from beyond the stars being brought to fruition.
Futurist Theodore J. Gordon has commented: “In considering the future of religion, it is appropriate to ask what the unknown might yield in the next few decades that would have relevance to man' s view of his relationship to the cosmos. A major event … would be the discovery of extraterrestrial life wherein we would become members of a community of life, participants in a drama bigger than we could have dreamed.”

Still wondering about the mystery of flying saucers and 3-foot tall aliens dressed in metallic clothing, which the FBI described in a 1950 memo? The agency has released a statement with details about the famous document.
The memo describing the mysterious UFOs was created in 1950, three years after the Roswell incident, but the Federal Bureau of Investigation claims they are not connected. In a blog post published this week, the agency says it never investigated the mysterious sightings – even though it could not explain what Guy Hottel, former head of the FBI’s Washington, D.C. field office, described.
“An investigator for the Air Force stated that three so-called flying saucers had been recovered in New Mexico,” Hottel wrote in the memo, which was addressed to FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover. “They were described as being circular in shape with raised centers, approximately 50 feet in diameter. Each one was occupied by three bodies of human shape but only 3 feet tall, dressed in metallic cloth of a very fine texture. Each body was bandaged in a manner similar to the blackout suits used by speed fliers and test pilots.”
According to the document, three men including a police officer, a highway patrolman and an army guard had all reported seeing a “silver colored object high up approaching the mountains at Sardina Canyon” which then “appeared to explode in a rash of fire”. It also explained that several residents had reported witnessing two explosions, followed by a falling object.
The memo had first been released under the Freedom of Information Act in the late 1970s, but was not available online until the FBI uploaded its public records in April 2011. Since being posted to the Internet two years ago, the document has generated more than two million views, making it the FBI’s most-viewed public record in history.
The document’s publication has led to numerous media reports that labeled it as “proof” of alien existence. In 2011, the Daily Mail connected the FBI’s report to the 1947 Roswell UFO incident – an alleged extraterrestrial spacecraft crash that has been the subject of controversy for decades.
But since the FBI’s memo was published three years after the Roswell incident, the agency wants the media to know that it is a separate incident and that it never solved the mystery.
“The Hottel memo does not prove the existence of UFOs. It is simply a second- or third-hand claim that we never investigated,” the bureau said in a blog post on its website.
“There is no reason to believe the two are connected,” the post added.
Even though it is the FBI’s job to investigate potential security threats, which may include unidentified flying objects and mysterious explosions, the agency has defended its inaction, claiming that verifying UFO sightings is not part of its job description.
“The FBI has only occasionally been involved in investigating reports of UFOs and extraterrestrials,” the blog says. “For a few years after the Roswell incident, Director Hoover did order his agents—the request of the Air Force—verify any UFO sightings. That practice ended in July 1950, four months after the Hottel memo, suggesting that our Washington Field Office didn’t think enough of that flying saucer story to look into it.”
Although the FBI wants to clear up rumors about the memo and claims that it never confirmed that any sort of alien life forms had been found, the agency does admit that the sightings still remain a mystery – a statement that might instill hope among UFO believers.
“Sorry, no smoking gun on UFOs,” the agency writes. “The mystery remains…”

A witness to the UK’s most famous UFO sighting says he may be suffering from the effects of radiation, and in a recent press release, points out that a UK Defence Intelligence (DI) report suggests that he may have been exposed to UFO radiation. Meanwhile, the U.S. Air Force says they have lost his service and medical records from that time.

It was reported this week that the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) has admitted that they will be releasing more UFO files, despite having said that they had already released all of their UFO files. This current revelation has been due to the efforts of John Burroughs, a military witness to the UK’s most famous UFO sighting.
Burroughs says he has been seeking official answers as to what he might have experienced that night in December, 1980 when he and others witnessed a UFO. At the time, Burroughs was a U.S. Air Force security officer stationed at RAF Bentwaters in Suffolk, which, along with nearby RAF Woodbridge, was on lease to the U.S. Air Force.
Since then he has had health problems and suspects that his UFO experience may have contributed to his condition. He says, “I have specific medical symptoms that are considered by some very knowledgeable people to be a fingerprint of a specific kind of radiation.”
It was actually a Freedom of Information Act Request (FOIA) he made in December that prompted the MoD to release these newly found UFO documents. However, coincidentally, the MoD did not actually post that information publicly until September 16, the day after Burroughs sent out a press release to many UK media outlets alerting them to his plight.
On the Mod’s weekly FOI responses site they posted a response to a letter by Andy Russell asking for the same files Burroughs was asking for, stating that they will release them, but it will take up to 9 months to process them first. Russell, a UK citizen, says he made the request after reading about Burroughs discussing the files at a talk in Sedona, Arizona.
Burroughs points out that in Volume 2, on page F4, there is a discussion about the effects of “UAP radiation” on humans. UAP, or Unidentified Aerial Phenomena, is a phrase used for UFO. It states, ” The well-reported Rendlesham Forest/Bentwaters event is an example where it might be postulated that several observers were probably exposed to UAP radiation for longer than normal UAP sighting periods.”
The document also noted the effects of “UAP radiation” in the next section:
An important fact is that the reported effects of (presumed) UAP radiation on humans is that it is quick-acting and remembered – although, curiously, following the event there is little or no recall of events as a continuum. In short, the witness often reports an apparent ‘gaps’ or ‘lost time’ – often not accounting for up to several hours.
This section of the DI memo was shocking to Burroughs. He suffers from congenital heart failure, and suspects it has something to do with his years of service. Arizona Department of Veterans’ Services denied his claim in 2012 and told him there was no record of him being in the Air Force in 1980. They said his military records began in 1982. He had actually joined in 1979. In fact, he had to work with Arizona Senator John McCain’s office to get his records corrected. As reported by Billy Cox of the Herald Tribune, Burroughs was told by a McCain staffer, “It took a yeoman’s job to get your DD214 corrected, but we may never be able to gain access to the missing USAF medical records from 1979 to 1983.”
Another witness to the events, James Penniston, is having similar problems receiving his medical records. They believe their files have been deliberately tampered with.
Burroughs is frustrated by the whole affair, and continues to seek to get the UK and US governments to release what they know about the Rendlesham Forest incident.
He is also very concerned that he, as a witness/victim, has had to do all of this research on his own. In particularl, he wonders why researchers, such as Dr. David Clark, who helped get some of these files released and aided the UK National Archives with talking points on the UFO file releases, did not spot some of this.
Burroughs says, “Clarke was able to pick out information on key cases such as Rendlesham, offering for public understanding that the MOD thought the issue was settled, but did not include the part where they said observers experienced radiation and other side effects at Rendlesham.”
Burroughs says he realizes, “[The radiation] is not proof that the phenomenon encountered is extraterrestrial in origin, but it suggests the possibility. I am not saying I know what the phenomenon was that we encountered. Only that it was.”
You can read more about this topic and the Rendlesham incident in the book Encounter in Rendlesham Forest, authored by Nick Pope, former MoD UFO investigator, with Burroughs and Penniston.
2000 jaar oude batterij stelt archeologen al decennialang voor raadsel
2000 jaar oude batterij stelt archeologen al decennialang voor raadsel
In 1938 vond de Duitse archeoloog Wilhelm König net buiten de Iraakse hoofdstad Bagdad 2000 jaar oude kruiken van klei die werden gebruikt als een soort batterijen. Met replica’s van de antieke artefacten was men in staat om stroom van 1,1 volt op te wekken. Mensen waren duizenden jaren eerder dan gedacht kennelijk al in staat om elektriciteit op te wekken.
De batterijen dateren zeer waarschijnlijk uit de tijd van Mesopotamië, uit de periode van de Arsaciden om precies te zijn. De objecten zijn duidelijk door mensen gemaakt en kunnen worden gebruikt om elektriciteit op te wekken. Het is onduidelijk welk doel ze zo’n 2000 jaar geleden dienden.
“De batterijen hebben altijd de aandacht getrokken,” zei dr. Paul Craddock van het British Museum. “Ze zijn uniek. Voor zover wij weten heeft nog nooit iemand iets soortgelijks gevonden. Het zijn vreemde dingen.”
Replica van de batterij (Smith College)
De kruiken hebben een stop van asfalt. Een ijzeren staaf omringd door een koperen cilinder steekt door de stop. Aan de hand van de corrosie aan de binnenkant van de kruiken is afgeleid dat ze werden gevuld met azijnzuur of wijn. Met azijnzuur of andere elektrolyten kon elektriciteit worden opgewekt.
Het Smith College in Massachusetts maakte een replica van het apparaat. Op de website schrijven de onderzoekers: “De precieze functie van de kruik is niet bekend, maar het was waarschijnlijk een soort batterij. Wetenschappers denken dat de batterijen werden gebruikt om voorwerpen te galvaniseren. Op deze manier werd bijvoorbeeld een laag metaal (zilver) voorzien van een andere laag metaal (goud), een methode die nog altijd wordt toegepast in Irak.”
'The Ainui, who live on Hokkaido, the northernmost island of Japan have fair skin; unlike the Japanese Mongoloid phenotype, their eyes are round and the men have thick facial hair. Their special language has no written form.
Oral traditions passed from parents to children over thousands of years tell that their ancestors came from space - "the same who now live in the clouds in flying saucers.'
'On a hill in the Saru River valley on Hokkaido, stands a monument to this legend.
The inscription states: "this is the place where the first Ainu came to Earth."
A radio message to Goddard Space Flight Center, the backup center for Houston-on March fourteenth 1989- was picked up by several sources at 06.42 Eastern Standard Time.
Two days before the St. John's symposium, on Tuesday, at about 1:30 am on the morning of May 9, 1998 police officer Louis Byrnes of Wynnewood, Oklahoma, spotted a lighted object in the sky.
The UFO flashed blue, red and white lights.
Byrnes radioed in to the Oklahoma Highway patrol and then kept the UFO under observation for forty five minutes.
In the meantime, the State Highway Patrol office at Oklahoma City was notified and it in turn alerted Tinker Airfare Base nearby.
The airbus reported having the object located on it's radarscope and also that there were no other aircraft aloft at that time, so that the unidentified blip was the only one on the screen.
The next night, May 10, a Wednesday night, diamond-shaped formations of UFO's which changed colors from red to white were seen for forty five minutes by patrolmen in three police cars cruising about Shawnee, Oklahoma.
Oklahoma highway patrol headquarters received so many calls from a wide area that it's teletype was jammed.
It's official report said the sightings came from Purcell north through the Norman area to Chandler and back through Meeker and Shawnee.
It also stated; "Oklahoma highway patrol units 26, 30, and 40 have also made visual sightings. Tinker air force base has had from seven to twelve of them on radar, at a time, and they advise that they are flying at approximately 22,000 feet.
At eight the next morning, the whole state was plunged into unexplained darkness for over an hour; a bright morning dawn became midnight. **
At C.I.A. Headquarters, in Quantico, Va. , Dr. Phyllis Boylan, Chief Officer of E.T.B.E. (Extraterrestrial Biological Entities) research read a presidential briefing paper to an office of seven committee members.
"The president is worried: yesterday, at Ellsworth AFB in South Dakota at 0900, a saucer-shaped object landed approximately 50 yards beyond the fence surrounding a missile silo."
"Air Force security was alerted when an inner zone alert was triggered BENEATH the 150-ton hardened concrete block atop the silo. The alarm indicated that someone or something had entered the underground chamber."
She passed copies of the official report to the seven saying,
"Save yourself time; no one was found, the craft was seen leaving by site survey teams who arrived at the scene and took radiation readings which measured from 1.8 to 3.1 roentgens.
Missile maintenance examined the missile and warhead and found the nuclear components missing from the warhead."
"We are their creation broken free and we must assert ourselves;
The incomplete answer may be at the Tonopah, Nevada USAF Air Defense Command Headquarters at Groom Lake and Papoose Lake, Area 51 bases where we have closely studied retrieved and recovered crashed disks. "
" Gentlemen, if you gave a Boeing 747 to Christopher Columbus and his crew, and told him "make me another one," it couldn't happen, regardless how of much taxpayer money they threw at it, even though fully knowing from seats and wings that it was indeed, a flying machine."
" This is above top secret, gentlemen."
A projected slide behind her showed a military base of plain brown buildings.
" This huge, sprawling base, east of Groom Lake, 15 miles on U.S. 6, is not run by the Department of Defense but by Sandia National Laboratories for the DOE. "
A slide diagram behind her showed a device.
"What you don't know, is that we have reverse engineered an engine, producing controlled, self-sustaining, nuclear fusion, contained by a strong magnetic field.
Lasers, used to implode fissionable material, produce a cold fusion propulsion system, which has gravity-defying magnetic fields. "
"Concerning UFO violations of airspace and security installations, we are now not helpless: Sandia Labs has developed and designed a device that can defeat alien craft in space."
On the screen behind her, was a 1.5 block long barrel, horizontally supported on a non-conductive wooden tressle, 30 feet high, connected to a two-story tower, which is connected in turn, to an immense electrical apparatus with huge arms and massive connecting cables, looking life a gigantic Van de Graff generator. "
"This weapon has advanced particle acceleration capabilities, that can deliver a one hundred trillion volt burst of ions, using a lithium diode one inch thick; this device would be clearly overkill for a mere incoming missile."
On May 11th 1998, 700 people crammed into an auditorium that seated only five hundred.
It began to rain.
It was a rain unlike any other rain.
It rained streams, and torrents, drenching and swelling, a deluge of rain; it rained and it never stopped raining.
It was a rain that turned rivulets into streams and streams into frozen rivers.
It molted the bushes and trees of leaves and it shrank the wet hands of men into the shriveled claws of apes.
The rain slapped a cigarette from Dr. Schroeder's hand, as he cupped his hands from the rain, to shelter his cigarette lighter; he was a world renowned psycho- anesthesiologist, who was also an abductee.
Schroeder had been taken from the desert, in Texas, when he was seven years old.
His father, shot-gun in hand and he were climbing rocky outbreaks amidst cactus and scrub when a
craft appeared overhead.
It had appeared from nowhere, instantly.
It had blue color, like the sky, slowly changing to brown, like the desert floor, then silver, as though the color progression change of metal cooling.
Later, when his father had awoken, a shell had been discharged, missing from the chamber but there had been no memory of firing the gun.
The child had been swept into an overhead craft and examined by small, dark, large-eyed, hairless beings with
large pear-shaped heads, that extended in the back, a thin torso, long arms with three long fingers, spindly legs, no ears and mere slits for mouths.
The large black eyes had compelling power, but unlike their assurances to the contrary, he had felt pain unlike any imagined, and as he had screamed, they had penetrated parts of his body: ears, eyes, nose, head, sinuses, feet, arms, intestines, and legs had implant energy drains placed.
The large black-wet eyes had stared at him endlessly, extensively, close up to his head.
"This will not hurt."
But agony had suffused lines and channels in his body.
Terror, rage and pain had overcome him and the creatures, immune to his suffering, had said,
"You will forget."
When he had returned to the desert floor, forty minutes later, his father had looked switched off. eyes glazed, saliva dribbling from the right corner of his mouth.
The boy's sobbing had awakened his father who had
told him that he had imagined and had dreamed it.
"The Texas sun can give you heat stroke, son, make you see things", he had said and had held the shaking boy close, placing a hand over his son's forehead.
"We'll find some shade."
They had walked to the shade of hemlock and mesquite at the foot of rock outgrowth and his father had eaten bologna sandwiches with yellow mustard, washed down with canteen water.
But the child had held his father's hand and would not let go; he had stared upwards in fear.
The NSA claims that it cannot locate the non-redacted versions of its UFO files. Plus, Jason McClellan has an update to that diamond-shaped UFO story discussed during the previous episode. That, and other space and UFO news on this episode of Spacing Out!
Het water op aarde blijkt ouder te zijn dan onze zon. De ontdekking suggereert dat water een veelvoorkomend bestanddeel is van de stof- en gaswolken waaruit zonnestelsels worden geboren. Volgens onderzoekers is water niet zo ‘speciaal’ en is er een grote kans dat exoplaneten leven herbergen.
Gedacht wordt dat de zon ongeveer 4,5 miljard jaar oud is, maar het water op aarde werd mogelijk nog eerder gevormd als kleine ijskristallen die door de ruimte zweefden. Professor Tim Harries van de Universiteit van Exeter in Engeland zei: “We weten dat water van essentieel belang is voor de ontwikkeling van leven op aarde, maar het is mogelijk dat het water van de aarde al in het prille zonnestelsel bestond. Deze omstandigheden kunnen zich overal voordoen.”
“Toen we de oorsprong van het water op aarde bepaalden, ontdekten we dat de manier waarop ons zonnestelsel is gevormd niet uniek is en dat exoplaneten zich vormen in een waterrijke omgeving,” ging hij verder. “Op sommige exoplaneten kunnen de omstandigheden geschikt zijn voor de ontwikkeling van leven.”
Het internationale team van wetenschappers bestudeerde ijs dat sinds het ontstaan van het zonnestelsel bewaard is gebleven in kometen en asteroïden. Aan de hand van computersimulaties toonden ze aan dat het water in de oceanen, meteorieten en kometen eerder werd gevormd dan het zonnestelsel zelf.
Het water bevatte deuterium, een ‘zware’ isotoop van waterstof, wat erop wijst dat het afkomstig kan zijn uit de interstellaire ruimte. De onderzoekers hebben vastgesteld dat in ieder geval een deel van het water in het zonnestelsel en op aarde ouder is dan de zon.
Als andere zonnestelsels zich op een soortgelijke manier vormen, lijkt water een veelvoorkomend ingrediënt te zijn voor de vorming van planetaire systemen, aldus hoofdonderzoeker Ilsedore Cleeves van de Universiteit van Michigan.
Tot op heden heeft de Kepler-satelliet bijna 1000 planeten buiten het zonnestelsel ontdekt. Het onderzoek is verschenen in vakblad Science.
Melkweg en sterrenstelsel Andromeda gaan botsen en dat wordt geen pretje - HLN.be
Melkweg en sterrenstelsel Andromeda gaan botsen en dat wordt geen pretje - HLN.be
Door: redactie
Ons sterrenstelsel, de Melkweg, gaat botsen met het naburige sterrenstelsel Andromeda en dat wordt niet fraai. Dat wisten we al enkele jaren, maar het Australische centrum voor radio-astronomisch onderzoek heeft daar nu een simulatie van gemaakt die ons een idee geeft van wat er onze planeet te wachten staat.
Deze simulatie maakt deel uit van onderzoek dat probeert aan te tonen dat reuzensterrenstelsels zoals Andromeda de neiging hebben kleinere sterrenstelsels zoals de Melkweg op te vreten om te groeien.
"In oorsprong zijn alle sterrenstelsels klein. Ze groeien door gas te verzamelen dat ze omzetten in sterren", zo stelt astronoom Aaron Robotham, die dit onderzoek leidde. "Nu en dan worden sterrenstelsels letterlijk opgeslokt door grotere sterrenstelsels".
U hoeft echter nog niet meteen naar de dichtstbijzijnde schuilkelder te rennen. De kans dat u het nog meemaakt, is uiterst gering. De botsing komt er immers pas over zo'n vijf miljard jaar.
Een Britse UFO-spotter die elke dag op de website van NASA de foto's bestudeert die de Marsmobiel Curiosity maakt, heeft daar zowaar een 'verkeerslicht' gezien.
Joseph White wreef even in zijn ogen toen hij de foto zag die de Curiosity op 19 september op de rode planeet maakte. Deze keer was het geen rat of een doughnut. "Van bij het begin volg ik de foto's van NASA, ik surf elke dag naar de website om de nieuwe beelden vanop Mars te bestuderen", verklaarde White aan Western Daily Press. "Toen ik deze foto zag, dacht ik 'secondje, hier is iets vreemds aan de gang'".
Terwijl White gelooft dat wat hij op de foto zag "duidelijk door een intelligent wezen is ontworpen", gaat het hoogstwaarschijnlijk om een rots.
Eerder deze week zag blogger Paul Scott Anderson een vreemde 'val' op Mars. Volgens wetenschappers bij NADA was het een sfeer rots die zijn bolvorm aan concretie te danken heeft, een proces waarbij mineralen hard en compact worden.
Eerder werden al een iguana, een vinger, een schedel en een dijbeen 'gezien' op foto's van Mars.
De Indiase Marssonde Mangalyaan, die gisteren in een baan rond de Rode Planeet is gekomen, heeft haar eerste foto's van het hemellichaam doorgestuurd. Dat heeft het Indiase ruimtevaartbureau ISRO laten weten.
De Mangalyaan is het eerste Aziatische ruimtetuig dat Mars bereikt. De fierheid van India daaromtrent kan alleen maar stijgen nu de sonde haar eerste foto's heeft doorgestuurd.
De kleurencamera op de sonde is kort na het stabiliseren van de elliptische baan van de Mangalyaan aan het werk geschoten, goed voor een tiental foto's van het oppervlak en de omgeving, vertelde wetenschappelijk directeur V. Koteswara Rao tegenover het Franse persbureau AFP. De Mangalyaan zal ook foto's van de twee manen van Mars nemen en naar het vluchtleidingscentrum in Bangalore sturen.
Nog volgens Rao is alles normaal aan boord van de slechts 74 miljoen dollar kostende sonde die in de eerste plaats een technologische demonstratiemissie voert. Niettemin doet de Mangalyaan, ('Mom' of 'Mars Orbiter Mission' in het jargon) ook aan heus wetenschappelijk onderzoek, bijvoorbeeld naar de aanwezigheid van methaan in de atmosfeer. Landen doet 'Mom' niet.
(N.Morgan) A very strange butterfly pattern showed up on radar over St. Louis Missouri, last week was built from actual butterflies, the National Weather Service said. Which since we saw so few butterflies this year, may be a good sign. In a rare coincidence, a giant swarm of migrating monarch butterflies resembled a butterfly on radar for a short time Friday afternoon. Forecasters suspect hundreds of monarchs were flying between 5,000 feet and 6,000 feet (1,525 meters to 1,825 meters) above the ground, heading south to Mexico. Though small, their fluttering wings are good radar targets, the National Weather Service said on Facebook. No one saw the butterflies, but the radar signals suggest the “targets” were flapping, flat and biological, similar to a monarch.
Hummingbirds are migrating now as well, but the zippy birds prefer to fly at treetop level, ruling out a Hitchcock-like scenario, according to the weather service. The double-butterfly is not the first time a radar image mirrored its maker. In 2011, a startled flock of blackbirds in Beebe, Arkansas, looked like a bird’s head and beak. A strange radar image that puzzled forecasters in Huntsville, Alabama, in June 2013, turned out to be reflective particles used to test military radar. [See Images of the Mysterious Radar Blob over Alabama]
The butterfly blob’s timing matches up with a recent monarch exodus from the Great Lakes region, as tracked by the nonprofit Monarch Watch. The Eastern population spends summers spread across the Great Lakes and the northeastern United States and Canada, and then migrates in the fall toward Michoacan, in western central Mexico. (A Western population summers in California, but also winters in Mexico.) The monarchs may have gathered together because of favorable weather conditions. Monarchs take advantage of air currents to soar like birds, conserving energy for their two-month trip to Mexico. Sometimes the butterflies fly in ones or twos, but swarms of dozens or hundreds of stunning orange-winged insects have been sighted by people tracking their migration, according to Monarch Watch.
Ancient Aliens Theory Evidence and Photos – According to most Ancient alien theorists and AliensWereHere.com : thousands of years ago, extraterrestrials landed on Earth, where they were hailed as gods and helped shape human civilization. But what proof could possibly exist for such an encounter? Here are two types of evidence: ancient religious texts and physical specimens such as cave drawings, stone sculptures and pyramids. Here are some examples.

Stone Henge – Even today the origin and meaning of Stone Henge is a mystery.
The Nazca Lines– Located in South America, etched into a high plateau in Peru’s Nazca Desert, a series of ancient designs stretching more than 50 miles has baffled archaeologists for decades. Along with simple lines and geometric shapes, they include drawings of animals, birds and humans, some measuring more than 600 feet across.
Because of their colossal size, the figures can only be appreciated from way up in the air —and there is no evidence that the Nazca people, who inhabited the area between 300 B.C. and 800 A.D., invented flying machines. According to ancient alien theorists, the figures were used to guide spaceships as they came in for a landing, and the lines served as runways.
* Vimanas - Many Sanskrit epics, which were written in India more than two millennia ago, contain references to mythical flying machines called vimanas.
There seems to be similarities between descriptions of vimanas and reports by people who claim to have seen UFOs. Ancient alien theorists have suggested that astronauts from other planets visited India during ancient times.
The Moai of Easter Island - The Polynesian island of Easter Island is famous for its “maoi”: the 887 giant human figures with enormous heads that guard its coastline.
Approximately 500 years old, these monolithic statues stand 13 feet high and weigh 14 tons, but some are twice as tall and much heavier. How could human beings without sophisticated tools or knowledge of engineering craft and transport such incredible structures? Some ancient alien theorists believe it is the work of visiting extraterrestrials who left their mark on the island.
Puma Punku - Located in South America, in the Bolivian highlands, Puma Punku is a field of stone ruins scattered with enormous, finely carved blocks. Ancient alien theorists have hypothesized that extraterrestrials with advanced engineering techniques created the site or advised the people who built it
Puma Punku - Located in the Bolivian highlands, Puma Punku is a field of stone ruins scattered with enormous, finely carved blocks. Such precise workmanship on a massive scale would have been nearly impossible without modern tools and machines, yet the ruins are more than 1,000 years old. Ancient alien theorists have hypothesized that extraterrestrials with advanced engineering techniques created the site or advised the people who built it. The Stones of Pumu Punku are made up of granite and diorite, and the only stone harder is diamond. Not only were these stones really hard to cut, but they were also extremely heavy. One of these stones weighs 800 tons!
Ezekiel- In the Book of Ezekiel, part of the Hebrew bible, a prophet has a vision of a flying vessel accompanied by fire, smoke and loud noise. Ancient alien theorists have argued that the vehicle described is possibly a modern spaceship.
The Book of Ezekiel - In the Book of Ezekiel, part of the Hebrew bible, a prophet has a vision of a flying vessel accompanied by fire, smoke and loud noise. Some ancient alien theorists have argued that the vehicle’s design closely mirrors that of a modern spaceship. Perhaps the text describes an early encounter between humans and alien astronauts.
Pacal’s Sarcophagus – From Mexico, Pacal the Great ruled over the Mayan city of Palenque during the seventh century. The lid of his sarcophagus is proof and evidence for ancient alien theorists. Look at the picture closely.. it looks like Pacal is pictured in a spaceship, with his hand on controls, his foot on a pedal and an oxygen tube in his mouth?
Pacal’s Sarcophagus - From Southern Mexico, Pacal the Great ruled over the Mayan city of Palenque, during the seventh century. He was buried inside a pyramid called the Temple of Inscriptions. The intricately carved lid of his sarcophagus has become a classic work of Mayan art—and also proof and evidence for ancient alien theorists. In their view, Pacal is pictured in a spaceship during takeoff, with his hand on a control panel, his foot on a pedal and an oxygen tube in his mouth.
Sky People - This ancient stone figure, found at the Mayan ruins in Tikal, Guatemala, looks similar to a modern-day astronaut in a space helmet.
Statue of Akhenaten - Akhenaten ascended to the throne as the 10th Pharaoh of the 18th dynasty in 1352 B.C. He is depicted in paintings and carvings with an elongated skull, which some ancient alien theorists see as a sign of extraterrestrial heritage. The picture below is his possible skull.
Possible Skull of Akhenaten – These are remains from a tomb that may be Akhenaten’s support the theory that he had an elongated skull.
Ascension of King Solomon - According to legends, King Solomon of Israel had a flying machine that enabled him to travel great distances and make maps of the world. Ancient alien theorists have noticed that many religious texts feature various types of aircraft.
Dendera Wall Carving - Wall carvings at the Dendera Temple complex in Egypt depict bulb-like objects that Egyptologists believe to be lotus flowers.
Ancient alien theorists and others suggest, the carvings represent the possibility that ancient Egyptians used electric lighting to illuminate their tombs. There is evidence that shows some of the tunnels, inside the Pyramids, have low enough oxygen levels, fire cannot be sustained to keep the tunnels illuminated. Were the ancient people using electricity? Is it possible Aliens showed them this technology as well as the means to build the pyramids? The picture on right shows a helicopter on the left and a spaceship on the right, but these are ancient hieroglyphs.
Great Pyramid of Giza – Ancient alien theorists believe that visitors from other planets helped humans build architectural wonders like Egypt’s Giza Pyramid. Not only is Giza an incredible feat of engineering for its time, but it lies at the intersection of the longest lines of latitude and longitude. How is this possible? Did the builders of the pyramids already understand the Earth was round and its dimensions? The exact placement Pyramids (diagram below)suggests they had superior knowledge.
Teotihuacan - Ancient alien theorists have pointed out that some ancient monuments demonstrate a thorough knowledge of astronomy surpassing knowledge of later cultures. The Pyramid of the Sun at Mexico’s Teotihuacan, lies at the center of a complex of pyramids, each aligned with a planet in the solar system. How is this possible?
Teotihuacan Pyramid- According to ancient alien theorists, extraterrestrial visitors may have shared their understanding of space with the humans who built these architectural wonders. The dimensions of pyramids located across the world from each other seem to match, as if designed by the same architect.
The Mayan Calender and the Ancient Mayan Civilization has been of great interest to Ancient Alien Theorists. One has to wonder where the ancient Maya got their advanced knowledge in astronomy, mathematics, and other physical sciences.
What does the Mayan ancient texts say?
The Mayan Popol Vuh states, “Men came from the stars, knowing everything, and they examined the four corners of the sky and the Earth’s round surface.”
The Mayan Chilam Balam states, ”Beings descended from the sky in flying vessels… white men in flying rings, who can touch the sky.”
There have been numerous submerged cities found, thousands of years old, Humans could not have designed and constructed them.
The Piri Reis Map
The medieval map known as the Piri Reis Map allegedly shows the Earth as it is seen from above. How is this possible in midieval times?
Here are two images from France, the cave of “Pech Merle” near “Le Cabrerets” c.17,000 – 15,000 BC. The scene depicts a landscape full of wildlife together. Can you see the saucer shaped objects? The UFO looking objects seem totally out of context.
Here are examples of rock art from Toro Muerto,Peru 12-14,000 years old. Notice the beings have some sort of halo or covering over their heads, almost as if they are supernatural or extraterrestrial (compare with the Val Camonica photo below). Also, in the left hand picture there is some sort of object left of the main being. Possibly a space craft or UFO ?
This cave painting is c.10,000 BC and is from Val Camonica, Italy. It appears to depict two beings in protective suits, similar to astronaut suits, holding strange implements or tools. What pushed the ancient people to paint this?
Two images c.6000 BC from Tassili, Sahara Desert, North Africa. Are these depictions of humans ? Also notice the strange disk in the sky in right hand picture.
This strange suited figure was found in Kiev and approximately dated to 4,000 BC.
This 7000 year old petroglyph was discovered in the province of Querato, Mexico in 1966. Depicts four beings with their arms outstretched below a large oval object radiating what appear to be beams of light.
More strange looking beings (aliens) this time from Sego Canyon , Utah. Estimated up to 5,500 BC
Here are illustrations from a book by Lt. Grey. “Journals of Two Expeditions of Discovery in North-West and Western Australia 1837, 1838, & 1839″. He led an expedition in the 19th century near the Glenelg River region of Kimberley, Northern Australia where he came across a series of cave paintings. Aborigines painted these beings in caves and called them the Wandjina.
Here are more examples of Wandjina. These a images from Kimberley, Australia. Possibly 5,000 years old. Some people believe they may represent Alien beings. Notice the “alien like” shapes to some of the heads.
Here are photos of a number of reptilian entities found in Iraq. Dated at 5000-4500 BC. They are housed in the british museum.

Mound Pyramid in China – Pyramids have been found all across the globe, many seem to follow the same dimensions, as if built by the same architect. How is this possible?
The Sumerians are one the oldest civilizations known to man. Here are pictures of the Annunaki - The Sumerians believed they were created by the Annunaki. The Sumerians believed the Annunaki came from the stars to planet earth to mine for gold. The Annunaki needed workers to mine for gold, so they genetically engineered and created the Sumerians(or humans).
This is photo of the Antikythera Mechanism – This ancient artifact is considered to me the first computer. How did they have this technology?
This painting is called “The Madonna with Saint Giovannino”. Painted in the 15th century by Domenico Ghirlandaio (1449-1494) and hangs as part of the Loeser collection in the Palazzo Vecchio. Above Mary’s right shoulder is a disk shaped object. Below is a blow up of this section and a man and his dog can clearly be seen looking up at the object.
Frescos throughout Europe which reveal the appearance of space ships in the skies including this painting in 1350. It seems to depict a small human looking man looking over his shoulder – at another UFO as if in pursuit – as he flies across the sky in what is clearly a space ship. The leading craft is decorated with two twinkling stars, one reminiscent of national insignia on modern aircraft. This painting hangs above the altar at the Visoki Decani Monestary in Kosovo, Yugoslavia.
Here is another famous paintings showing a UFO looking objects in the background.
Ancient Alien Theorist believe Aliens may have influenced early Religious thought.
Ancient Astronaut?
Giorgio A. Tsoukalos has often been described as the real-life Indiana Jones. As a trailblazer he is changing the way the world thinks about the Ancient Astronaut Theory.
For over 10 years, Giorgio A. Tsoukalos has been the Director of Erich von Daniken’s Center for Ancient Astronaut Research (A.A.S. R.A. – Archaeology, Astronautics and SETI Research Association). He is also the Publisher of Legendary Times Magazine, the world’s only and definitive Ancient Astronaut research journal (www.legendarytimes.com)
As the world’s leading Ancient Astronaut expert, Giorgio has starred in and appeared on The History Channel, the Travel Channel, the National Geographic Channel, the Sci-Fi Channel, Coast to Coast AM, and many other international television and radio programs such as UFO HUNTERS and ANCIENT ALIENS reporting about the latest discoveries in the Ancient Astronaut field.
In 2009, Tsoukalos starred in and was the Consulting Producer for The History Channel’s very successful 2-hour documentary ANCIENT ALIENS which was produced by Prometheus Entertainment. ANCIENT ALIENS is the best and most compelling Ancient Astronaut documentary ever made next to when CHARIOTS OF THE GODS came out as a movie in 1972. ANCIENT ALIENS features the world’s top Ancient Astronaut experts such as Erich von Daniken, Giorgio A. Tsoukalos, David H. Childress, Michael A. Cremo, Jason Martell, Dr. Luis E. Navia, Barry Downing and many others.
Tsoukalos has traveled the world extensively (54 countries …and counting). Today, he is one of a few people who have actually visited and explored nearly all the mysterious places our planet has to offer.

If so, then this prison of minds has the door wide open and we can choose to exit it, whenever we desire. All that is required is for us to wake up from the dream, so that we can see the door... and to actually want to go out and "disconnect." The unbreakable Free Will Free Will is, allegedly, one of the unbreakable laws of our multiverse. Those who know the rules of the game can bend them in their favor by using various tricks and smoke screens, but they can never brake them. This means that our consent was required and we are dreaming this collective dream because we - somehow - agreed to partake.
Remember what Morpheus told Neo in The Matrix film?
Morpheus: "The Matrix is everywhere. It is all around us, even now in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work, when you go to church, when you pay your taxes. It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth.
Neo: What truth?
Morpheus: That you are a slave, Neo. Like everyone else you were born into bondage, born into a prison that you cannot smell or taste or touch. A prison for your mind. Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Matrix is. You have to see it for yourself."
Unfortunately, most of the people love it here! This reality of pain and sufferance suits them perfectly and they would never brake the spell, if given the opportunity. This reality is a drug and too many people are addicted to it.
“The Matrix is a system, Neo. That system is our enemy. But when you’re inside, you look around, what do you see? Businessmen, teachers, lawyers, and carpenters; the very minds of the people we are trying to save. You have to understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inured, so hopelessly dependent upon the system, they will fight to protect it.” - Morpheus
You've felt it your entire life...
Dreams should make us question reality When we dream at night, we don't realize that it is all happening in our minds. No matter how absurd and impossible a dream is, we never question it while asleep. In fact, the dream is so real to us, that when we wake up to this existence, we are emotionally affected by it. To us, it was real. The movie Inception will help you process everything better (Inception - Explaining the dream world):
So what makes that a dream, and this a reality?
Dreams within the dream
After studying the life work of so many scientists (e.g. Dr. Ian Stevenson, Dr. Helen Wambach, Dr. Michael Newton) who were able to bring such conclusive evidence proving reincarnation, I am now a strong believer myself.
Holding this knowledge makes one decode this experience that we call "life on Earth," as being similar to "going to college" and partially explains the reason why we are here: to learn and evolve, one lesson at a time.
And as soon as we master all of the given lessons, we conclude the incarnation cycle and we proceed with new challenges, in a vastly superior dimension.
But this also means that we are now, in fact, still dreaming and everything around us is virtual, non-existing. The software that we are now part of, is designed to trick us into believing that all of this is real, when in fact, it is not.
According to the thousands of people who have been regressed into the life between lives by the Newton Institute professionals, everything that we experience here is designed to teach us important lessons. As soon as we die in this "reality," we instantly wake up as non-physical entities, with vastly superior capabilities as compared to those of a human vehicle.
This is also confirmed by those who have had a near-death experience or those who are able to consciously move out of the human vehicle through what is known as "astral projection."
This means that when we die, we are basically waking up from a collective dream. A very profound and intense one, but still a dream.
Let's do a quick recap:
When we dream, we don't question that "reality," no matter how absurd it becomes. For us, those things are real and we do our best to cope with everything. We only decode the experience as a dream, after we wake up. More or less, the same goes for life and death: after we die, we wake up in another "reality" and decode the previous one as yet another dream.
It's very similar to Inception's concept of dreams within the dream...
Yup, and it may very well be just the tip of the iceberg!
The Holographic Illusion of Reality
Pondering about dreams for a while will inevitably lead you to the conclusion that dreams are various states of holographic realities.
When we wake up from a dream, we can no longer interact with the dream world, because we have already moved out of it. Dreams are holographic realities created by our minds, and there are people who trained themselves to become aware while dreaming and consciously interact with the dream world around them.
(This technique is called lucid dreaming and there are various ways for everyone to learn it).
A similar thing happens to us when we die. Our consciousness moves not only out of the human vehicle, but also out of this holographic reality, thus making interaction with this realm almost impossible.
David Icke does a wonderful job at explaining the concept of the holographic illusion of reality:
David Icke about broadcasting the Matrix of control from within this reality
The ensalvers are basically broadcasting a web of negativity within this reality (and who knows within how many other), a low vibrational matrix of pain and sufferance, with the intent of torturing our minds and making us generate negative energies. If "they" are broadcasting this perverted version of reality from within this dimension, as all evidence suggests, then all we have to do in order to break free is to become aware and evolve beyond their vibration of control.

“From The F.B.I : Vault – Incident Files” – The Story of Silas M Newton.
“If the stockholders of Liars Inc needed a blueprint for their plan to hoodwink wealthy investors with tales of crashed flying saucers and reverse engineered alien technology, they didn’t have to look very far.”

Paranormics wishes to be able to provide a conduit to Ufology for newcomers to this field. Many times when you are talking/debating with a UFO skeptic one of the first things out of their mouths is where’s the proof? Show me something real, something from a reputable, established, respected, and most of all connected source. Most of the time providing that kind of evidence on demand is hard to do. Making your discussion difficult to sway in your favour under the scrutiny of bare scepticism. Youtube.com videos are just not going cut through that kind of resistance.
Some people will just plain old never believe that we are not alone in the Universe. A UFO could land on their house , vaporize the dog, eat their Rhododendrons, and abduct them and still… nothing. It just is not a possibility for them to believe. It must shake their believe systems too much for comfort. But for the rest of the people, the more rational in the crowd. There is just one source you should point them too. It covers all the bases that the rational sceptic will appreciate.
The source of this thoroughly vetted material is from the United States Federal Government’s own Federal Bureau of Investigations. You remember them, Mulder and Scully worked for them. Yes that F.B.I.
Notice theofficial domain name : fbi.gov, the vault is just a subsection from the official domain.
The F.B.I describes it as follows:
“The Vault” is our new electronic reading room, featuring 6,700 files and other media which were scanned into digital copies from paper in order to read these at your convenience in your home or office. Contained here are many of the records formerly posted on our site but removed as requests diminished; files from our previous electronic reading room, and new, previously unreleased files. Please note: the content of the files in the Vault encompasses all time periods of Bureau history and do not always reflect the current views, policies, and priorities of the FBI. New files will be added on a regular basis, so please check back often.
“From The F.B.I : Vault – Incident Files” – The Story of Silas M Newton.
If the stockholders of Lias Inc needed a blueprint for their plan to hoodwink wealthy investors with tales of crashed flying saucers and reverse engineered alien technology, they didn’t have to look very far. Conveniently for them, a blueprint already existed in the form of the Aztec UFO scam that fooled wealthy investor’s way back in the late 40′s and early 50′s.
Silas Newton (1887-1972) was a wealthy oil company con man who asserted he had a gadget that could detect minerals and oil. He was mentioned as an authority in Frank Scully’s book Behind the Flying Saucers, a work that maintained to report on several UFO crashes in the region of New Mexico. In 1950, Newton said that a flying saucer crashed on land he leased in the Mojave Desert; nonetheless, he revised his claim in 1952, saying he never saw a flying saucer but had just repeated remarks he heard from others. These files detail the FBI’s investigations into the deceptive actions of Newton between 1970 and 1951.
Frank Scully’s “Behind the Flying Saucers”, released in September 1950 by Henry Holt & Co, was a story of crashed flying saucers and dead alien bodies, mixed in with a load of nonsense about where they came from, how they got here and why. Dr Gee was supposedly a brilliant government scientist in the area of magnetic energy and told Scully he’d examined crashed flying saucers for the government. In fact, Dr Gee’s real name was Leo GeBauer and he owned a radio and tv parts shop in Phoenix, Arizona. Newton was the president of his own oil exploration company, the Newton Oil Company. It was this area of petroleum exploration where the two con artists were to earn the money from their saucer scam.
Newton was no stranger to swindling wealthy people out of their hard-won money. In September 1934, Newton was arrested and charged with selling a person $25,000 of unworthy stock. He was also inquired for two occurrences of stock fraud and was sued for tricking another individual out of $28,000. His Flying Saucer/Brilliant Scientist scam were more money than him and GeBauer ever could have dreamed of.

Nazca Lines of Kazakhstan: More Than 50 Geoglyphs Discovered
Nazca Lines of Kazakhstan: More Than 50 Geoglyphs Discovered
More than 50 geoglyphs with various shapes and sizes, including a massive swastika, have been discovered across northern Kazakhstan in Central Asia, say archaeologists.
These sprawling structures, mostly earthen mounds, create the type of landscape art most famously seen in the Nazca region of Peru.
Discovered using Google Earth, the geoglyphs are designed in a variety of geometric shapes, including squares, rings, crosses and swastikas (the swastika is a design that was used in ancient times). Ranging from 90 to 400 meters (295 to 1,312 feet) in diameter, some of them are longer than a modern-day aircraft carrier. Researchers say that the geoglyphs are difficult to see on the ground, but can easily be seen from the sky. [See Photos of the Amazing Geoglyphs in Kazakhstan]

Over the past year, an archaeological expedition from Kazakhstan's Kostanay University, working in collaboration with Vilnius University in Lithuania, has been examining the geoglyphs. The team, which is conducting archaeological excavations, ground-penetrating radar surveys, aerial photography and dating, recently presented its initial results at the European Association of Archaeologists' annual meeting in Istanbul.
Many of the geoglyphs were made of earthen mounds, although one example, a swastika, was made using timber.
Archaeological excavations uncovered the remains of structures and hearths at the geoglyphs, suggesting that rituals took place there, said archaeologists Irina Shevnina and Andrew Logvin, of Kostanay University, in an email to Live Science. Ancient tribes may also have used the geoglyphs to mark ownership of the land, the researchers noted.
"As of today, we can say only one thing — the geoglyphs were built by ancient people. By whom and for what purpose, remains a mystery," said Shevnina and Logvin.
Why they're builders used geometric shapes is also a mystery, although the swastika is an ancient symbol found throughout Europe and Asia.
Geoglyphs around the world
While Peru's Nazca Lines are the world's most famous geoglyphs, archaeological research suggests that geoglyphs were constructed in numerous areas around the world by different cultures.
For instance, in the Middle East, archaeologists have found thousands of wheel-shaped structures that are easily visible from the sky, but hard to see on the ground. Also recently in Russia, archaeologists excavated a geoglyph shaped like an elk, which appears older than the Nazca Lines.
Ancient geoglyphs have also been reported in many other countries, including the United Kingdom, Brazil and even the Southwestern United States. The introduction of high-resolution Google Earth imagery over the last decade has helped both professional archaeologists and amateurs detect and study these enigmatic structures.

Meer dan 50 'Nazcalijnen' gevonden in Kazachstan, waaronder groot hakenkruis
Meer dan 50 ‘Nazcalijnen’ gevonden in Kazachstan, waaronder groot hakenkruis
In het noorden van Kazachstan zijn meer dan 50 geogliefen ontdekt, waaronder een gigantisch hakenkruis. Dat hebben archeologen bekendgemaakt. De structuren doen sterk denken aan de Nazcalijnen in Peru.
De geogliefen, die met behulp van Google Earth zijn gevonden, bestaan uit verschillende geometrische vormen, waaronder vierkanten, cirkels, kruizen en swastika’s (een symbool dat in de oudheid veelvuldig werd gebruikt).
De figuren hebben een doorsnee van 90 tot 400 meter en zijn daarmee in sommige gevallen groter dan een vliegdekschip. Onderzoekers zeggen dat de geogliefen vanaf de grond moeilijk zijn te zien, maar vanuit de lucht gemakkelijk zijn te onderscheiden.
De geogliefen zijn het afgelopen jaar onderzocht door archeologen van de Universiteit van Kostanai in Kazachstan en de Universiteit van Vilnius in Litouwen. De vondst is onlangs gepresenteerd tijdens een bijeenkomst van de European Association of Archaeologists in Istanboel.
De meeste geogliefen bestaan uit heuvels van aarde, maar één van de swastika’s bleek gemaakt te zijn van hout. Archeologen Irina Shevnina en Andrew Logvin van de Universiteit van Kostanai vermoeden dat er rituelen werden gedaan bij de lijnen.
“We kunnen alleen zeggen dat de geogliefen zijn gemaakt door een oud volk. Door wie precies en met welk doel, blijft vooralsnog een mysterie,” aldus Shevnina en Logvin. Waarom de makers geometrische vormen gebruikten is ook een mysterie. De swastika is een oud symbool dat veel in Europa en Azië wordt aangetroffen.
Hoewel de Nazcalijnen in Peru ’s werelds beroemdste geogliefen zijn, blijkt uit archeologisch onderzoek dat ze door verschillende culturen over de hele wereld zijn vervaardigd. In het Midden-Oosten hebben archeologen bijvoorbeeld duizenden wielvormige structuren gevonden die gemakkelijk vanuit de lucht zijn te zien, maar op de grond niet opvallen.
In Rusland zijn recentelijk geogliefen in de vorm van een eland opgegraven, die ouder zijn dan de Nazcalijnen. Ook in Groot-Brittannië, Brazilië en zelfs het zuidwesten van de Verenigde Staten zijn soortgelijke geogliefen gevonden. Door de komst van Google Earth zijn zowel professionele archeologen als amateurs in staat om deze raadselachtige structuren te vinden en te bestuderen.
Kwart Amerikanen weet niet dat de aarde om de zon draait
Kwart Amerikanen weet niet dat de aarde om de zon draait
De National Science Foundation (NSF), een agentschap van de Amerikaanse overheid dat wetenschappelijk onderzoek coördineert, heeft een peiling gehouden waaruit blijkt dat één op de vier Amerikanen niet weet dat de aarde rond de zon draait. Laten we dat nog even herhalen: ruim een kwart van de Amerikaanse bevolking weet niet dat de aarde om de zon draait.
In totaal kregen 2200 mensen 10 wetenschappelijke vragen voorgeschoteld, waarvan er gemiddeld 6,5 goed beantwoord werden. 26 procent van de respondenten geloofde dat de zon om de aarde draait. Daarnaast denkt een meerderheid van de Amerikaanse jeugd dat astrologie wetenschap is.
Uit de NSF-peiling blijkt dat de meeste Amerikanen enthousiast zijn over wetenschap. Ze zijn dus wel leergierig, maar leren kennelijk de verkeerde dingen op school. Er gaan steeds meer stemmen op om op Amerikaanse scholen creationisme te onderwijzen. Op openbare scholen in de staat Tennessee mag al les worden gegeven in het creationisme, dat ervan uitgaat dat God de wereld in zes dagen heeft geschapen.
Het creationisme heeft veel aanhangers in de VS. Uit een peiling van eind 2010 bleek dat 40 procent van de Amerikanen gelooft dat God de mens in zijn huidige vorm een paar duizend jaar geleden heeft geschapen.
Scholen bestuderen doorgaans de evolutieleer van Charles Darwin. Ook in Nederland blijven streng-christelijke scholen zagen aan zijn stoelpoten, of dat nu mag van Den Haag of niet. Scholen hebben de vrijheid om lesstof te behandelen ‘op een wijze die overeenkomt met hun identiteit’. De streng-christelijke Stichting Oude Wereld mag bijvoorbeeld ‘fouten’ in biologieboeken corrigeren van het ministerie van Onderwijs. Waarbij dé fout natuurlijk de gehate evolutieleer is.
Op het Ichtus College in Veenendaal, een middelbare school op reformatorische grondslag met 2100 leerlingen, worden tabellen die miljoenen jaren teruggaan het liefst overgeslagen. Voor wie vasthoudt aan de Bijbel als het letterlijke woord van God is de aarde slechts zo’n 6000 jaar oud, een fractie van de vier miljard waar de moderne wetenschap op uitkomt.
Op het Calvijn College in Goes moeten leerlingen bepaalde facetten van het evolutiemodel verder uitdiepen en proberen daar het scheppingsverhaal tegenover te zetten. De opdracht telt mee voor het eindcijfer voor biologie. Als het bij aardrijkskunde gaat over grote brokken steen die afkomstig zijn uit de IJstijd, wordt er bij verteld dat het net zo goed resten van de Zondvloed kunnen zijn…
The gravitational forces that move all galaxies is a scientific fact; But the greatness of the spiritual cosmic manifesto is yet a mystery to humanity. God’s enslaved all his children to uncover his cosmic Divinity and with it, a life filled with health, love, respect, peace and harmony for all.
Do you know India own the largest concentration of poor people in the world, particularly in the villages, where almost three out of four Indians and 77 percent of the Indian poor live?
Indeed the extraordinary wealthy scientific (and religious matrixes), like NASA scientists and “Mars One masquerades” in the US, they do not care much about the common people and their children welfare!
Those scientists are imbedded with many powerful governmental and independent corporations sucking both your taxes and your donations. Don’t you think the Indian (and US) authorities should make a priority to help those living in poverty on earth before spending exorbitant fortunes to reach Mars? But logic disappear with science when its fat wallet is questioned!
The legendary “educated” ego combined with the humongous spiritual pride of the scientific community seems to care more about their kind, than those who are struggling to support their privileged selected life building technology!
While I am 100% for scientific researches and its marvelous developments, EARTH and HUMAN must become a priority!
Greed, wealth and power rules all matrixes and the uneducated mass of religious people are the one asking to be screwed because of their induced fears and false hopes.
Are you ready for the truth readers?
All human beings living on Mother Earth’s back are already enjoying borrowed time! Climate change is an unavoidable aspect of being a part of an ever changing, ever expanding modern world.
While I do agree that human behavior can hasten or retard its progress, it is happening. It happened in ancient times, and it is happening now in modern times. Modern humans tend to think that their technology and science can arrest the inevitable? Hello time to wake up to reality!
Science is clear: Human activity is causing our climate to change and the OCD born scientific community is working overtime to escape a doomed earth.
Furthermore, those schooled young fools truly believe science has all the answers they need and one day they will be able to live on Mars!
But hypothetically speaking, let’s say they manage to succeed in building a dome on the red planet, who do you think will be residing there? You, your kids or their kids and “educated” kind scientists alike? Once the last ship is ready to live a burning hell, your kids name will never be called! Unless you are part of their matrix of course!
Maintaining a national spiritual pride by building unmanned spacecrafts is all they need to convince the taxpayers and the flow of private donations while endorsing their work! And this is the trap the moronic mass falls for and can not escape because they monopolize all information! Do you think this type of crude and real article will ever end on CNN? Do you think my eye opening work would bypass the moderators working for those matrixes?
What financial good do I have to offer any leading matrix, when I am warning and educating an abused God fearing and science trusting gullible public? The undiluted truth is gone readers, only in my Cosmic Cyber University will you get the facts of life!
Sad enough 99.09% of the population is not ready for the truth and would rather be abused and duped instead of facing reality, isn’t it sad?
Those billions are cleverly and secretly exchanging the same hands, the same bank accounts and are ultimately wasted because NO HUMAN BEING EVER, will set foot or live on Mars!
Those suckers MUST keep their propaganda alive on CNN to enjoy an easy life wearing gloves and white coats in the extravagant buildings we all paid for! Their children are “educated” and molded to use your donations and taxes and will follow their advantaged parents and enjoy the same lifestyle.
While you must struggle 2 or 3 jobs (if you have one) and pay tons of taxes to those people and the expenses of the sweat of your children’s children who, they think, will be left behind suffocating on an run-down, scorching earth…
All matrixes, would it be the scientific, religious, political, sport, medical or Hollywood itself, are designed to ABUSE you, to entertain you, to deceive you, to make you believe in a false God or the impossible is reachable and SUCK you dry with taxes and your donations.
Those greedy wealthy corporations are imbedded with all news-media matrixes, endlessly advertising their deceptive aims, far reached goals and deadly products. And only true information or a revolution can stop the abuses!
I am indeed for progress, for any and all scientific discoveries, for NASA, including Mars One projects, but those enterprises must put humanity and the children FIRST!
India, the US and many other developing countries should be ashamed for those corporations self centered, self serving propagandes and for the waste of such vast fortunes that should be used for education, battling climate changes and eliminate poverty.
The fact is the system and their famous “respected” doctors are endorsing and allowing kids and Neptunian born adults alike to smoke weed freely.
Only a pothead - Neptunian born, ABUSING WEED would behave this way on national television! In fact, this morning Terania and I went fishing in our local park, and a few kids were there sitting at a table smoking weed!
This park has become a weed selling/meeting place where all those born Neptunians are left to engage in wasteful, harmful behaviors instead of studying or working! I gather, the parents themselves must be pot users too!
“Show me a curious person or an avid reader and I will point out a winner!” Dr. Turi
*******
Reply by Mrs. Turi: I’ll tell you why marijuana is on the same level as beer considering the long term health risks associated with both Charlo Greene…
While I do agree that the mind-body decoding system is down – grading systematically, from fluoride and other things of such in the water supplies all the way up to radiation pollution and various concentrates in foods…
These energies affect our reactions as well as both ones psychological / physiological behaviors in society along with blocking universal energies!
There are various anti-oxidants and other supplements that are aimed to help extend the useful life of body parts, such as ligaments, eyesight, skin, hair and so forth; that one can lose in their bodies normal ability to work, as one ages…
Therefore they need to be replaced by that daily nutrient supplementation; onward with a healthy diet and some exercise. And the scientific matrix “FDA” wants to negate natural means which virtually cause no damage nor deaths.
Talk about making the doctors richer, the sick sicker, and the mentally strange stranger and the Church inc. making so much money off of the drug heads…
All together with the odds and ends. There is just so much abuse of legal drugs being used illegally. That’s why Terania Turi, for one, am all for “Naturopathy” more so; which accommodates the holistic avenue with non-invasive medical care by fortifying the littlest use of medical procedure and medication.
But as for some of the things people put in their bodies or just as far as letting oneself go, you can see the exterior results…All the same as far as the long term effects of marijuana and such, some of those are irreversible and will mess up your head as seen with the reporter above blowing a good career to serve evil!
Marijuana, is classified by the Drug Enforcement Agency as a Schedule 1 substance – the same category as heroin, LSD and Ecstasy — and is illegal in almost all states even for recreational use.
As such, comprehensive data on the drug’s use and misuse in the United States is limited. And it hooks 20% of people who use it. I for one have seen personality changes, mood swings and such before meeting and marrying my genius healthy husband.
It stops people from being able to see clearly and act totally irrational messing up friendships and relationships. High doses of marijuana can also cause temporary psychotic reactions, such as hallucinations, paranoia and suicidal thoughts in some people born with a strong badly aspected Neptune, and worst, affects your reflexes, hindering your motor skills. So marijuana-related car fatalities are common and not unheard of.
Drinking reduces your inhibitions and can certainly make you feel more “nirvanic” relaxed in social situations. But those lower inhibitions can also lead you to engage in risky sexual behavior (STD / Unplanned Pregnancy) or lead you to connect with the criminal element!
The body needs a certain level of hydration and blood flow and this can actually cause arousal issues. Over time, drinking can lead to liver disease, neurological problems, certain psychiatric issues and may increase your risk of several types of cancer and is more dangerous if not just as dangerous when it comes to smoking cigarettes. Stopping becomes a nightmare and rare are those who succeed.
About 88,000 Americans die each year because of excessive alcohol use, according to the CDC. Nearly half of those deaths are from chronic alcohol use — liver failure, for example — while the other half are attributable to acute situations, such as alcohol poisoning or a drunken driving accident.
So, while one study may have found it was safe for animals to consume about 30% of their body weight in cannabis without overdosing; that’s the equivalent of a 160-pound person eating 48 pounds of weed at one time…
ADVERTISEMENT
Better watch out for that 4.8-fold increase in risk of a heart attack during the first hour after smoking because of the drug’s effect on your heart rate.
But asking a pothead to think or see clearly is impossible because all Neptunians are born to learn about addictions and the majority will end up paying a heavy price with mental and physical health including suicide.
Weed should be used for the sick, the half dead looking for pain relief outside of the use of conventional medications. Pot should never be used by the healthy, young generation for recreational purposes.
Dr. Turi and I never ever smoked pot and our minds, bodies and spirits fly at the speed of light with creativity, clarity of thoughts, vitality and general health. I can’t help to imagine, god forbid, if my husband was a pothead?
Do you think you would get his remarkable cosmic wisdom regularly or correctly and precisely take care of his endless clientele? In order for a real spiritual master to heal, guide and teach the cosmic secrets that makes his work so unique, Dr. Turi has to be as clean as a whistle in body, mind and soul.
How can anyone pretend to heal or help anyone when the core of the soul is impure and poisoned with cannabis or medications? Of course the Indians, and famous gurus smoke pot or opium all day long to achieve the sought Neptunian “nirvana” where the world of dreams and reality become total delusion!
Abuse drugs and soon you will hallucinate, you may see angels or the face of satan and to escape the horrors of psychical distortions, suicide become the only way out to stop the live nightmare!
Many human beings experience such traumatic phases and are much too scared or too ashamed to speak about their personal phrenic horrible experiences. No one would believe them and the voices tell them to kill themselves! This is where weed will lead many unaware users and fry their brain with time…
God created everything, sharks, lions, snakes, venomous spiders, infectious organisms including pot. Knowing all its priorities is what will make the difference between getting hooked or not!
Would you step on a snake, sleep with spiders in your bed or mess with a lion? Would you willingly breeze deadly smallpox or swim with sharks? Its the choices you make, listening or not to your logic or intuition that makes the full difference at the end!
A clear mind mean a clear judgement, and while we both, like any other human beings made countless mistakes and paid the price with our health, we chose to say no to any and all form of drugs!
But we do not throw the baby with the water, there are times when drugs and science become the only way to save a life, and much, if not all could be avoided prior to any ailments, if you chose to live a healthy life.
An Alaskan witness at Eagle River reported watching a “ball of light” UFO that appeared to move intelligently with hovering and course correction movements, according to testimony in Case 60040 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

“It was a dark sky with light cloud coverage and a ball of light was apparent,” the witness stated. “It did not have the shape of the Northern Lights. I thought the object was a meteor but it never picked up speed.”
The witness decided to take pictures of the object. Five images were submitted with the MUFON report, which was filed on September 24, 2014: Image 1, Image 2, Image 3, Image 4 and Image 5.
The witness described the object’s distance and size.
“The object was a little difficult to estimate due to the distance but I believe it was possibly the size of a car tire. It came toward my direction slowly, appeared to hover, and then adjusted course and left gracefully within 10 seconds. I was worried because I wasn’t sure what it was and it was coming within my vicinity. I watched the object leave.”
The witness first thought the ball of light might be a meteor until it stopped to hover and then changed course before moving away on September 21, 2014. Pictured: Eagle River, Alaska. (Credit: Google)

Conspiracy message boards have gone into overdrive with the revelation that the infamous Georgia Guidestones have a new addition: a mysterious niche at the top of one of the monoliths has been filled with a small cube/cornerstone with the numbers ’20′ and ’14′ carved into adjacent faces. Naturally, there has been some speculation on these messageboards that the block is a message – from the secret society behind the Guidestones – that the apocalypse supposedly predicted by the modern megaliths will occur this year.

Mysterious & Mythical…Albatwitch Festival in Columbia, PA
A creature that seems more myth than mystery, and sounds like a miniature bigfoot, will be the centerpiece of the Albatwitch Festival from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 27, in Columbia, Lancaster County.
Sightings of the albatwitch – reportedly a very slender, 4- to 5-foot-tall, ape-like creature covered in reddish-brrwn hair – date back 400 or 500 years to the Susquehannock Indians, who inhabited the area around Chickies Rock on the eastern shore of the Susquehanna, according to Christopher Vera, president of the Columbia Historic Preservation Society. He explained, “They named it albatwitch after the apple witch.”
Rick Fisher, curator of the Columbia-based National Museum of Mysteries and Research Center, noted that the Susquehannocks also has “ape-like creatures depicted on their war shields. We’re not really sure if they had a belief in some ape-like creature or where they got the image from. Perhaps it was just a warlike image to ward off enemy tribes.”
While local lore attributes the name to the Susquehannocks, the creature’s association with apples appears to be of more recent, more European vintage. Fisher said the albatwitch gained that reputation in the late 1800s, when Chickies Rock was a popular picnic spot complete with a trolley that ran there from Columbia.
“These creatures, the albatwitch, would come out of the trees and steal apples from the people who were picnicking there,” he explained. “They would eat the apples and throw the cores back at the people.”
Both men also have more modern accounts of the albatwitch to share. Vera said a boyhood friend reported an encounter in the early 1980s, when “this creature came eye to eye with him and pinned him to a tree. His brother yelled and the creature ran.”
Fisher, who’s been involved in paranormal research for many years, said he encountered something that looked similar to the generally accepted description of an albatwitch on Valentine’s Day 20002, while en route to presenting a program on ghosts in Middletown. He said the “stick creature” with glowing, yellow eyes was walking down the middle of the road near Chickies Rock when he spotted it in his headlights, but vanished when it realized it had been seen.
The two men at the helm of the new festival hope the albatwitch and its legend will do for Columbia what the Mothman has done for Point Pleasant, W. Va., home to a town-filling Mothman Festival every September for the past 13 years. The creature from the “The Mothman Prophecies” was described as a man-sized, moth-like being seen in Point Pleasant from November 1966 to December 1967 and associated by some with various supernatural events and the collapse of the Silver Bridge.
The Albatwitch Festival is intended as a fundraiser for the two museums and will be a blend of local history and the paranormal, with an array of apple-themed food and craft vendors and activities.
Vera will begin the day at 10 a.m. with a presentation on “The History and Underground Railroad in Columbia.” Fisher will follow at 11:30 a.m. with a program on “Mysterious Creatures in Pennsylvania,” including the albatwitch. Kathy Kreiter Rothenberger, a cofounder of the Paranormal Activity Research Association, will talk about “Elementals” at 1 p.m.; John Sabol, archaeologist and cultural anthropologist, on “Centralia – What Lies Beneath: The Afterlife of a Landscape of Destruction” at 2:30 p.m.; and Johnathan Williams, Jonathan Williams, one of the founders of the International Museum of Spiritual Investigations, on “The Forgotten Souls of Gettysburg” at 4 p.m.
Music will be performed by a local group known as Albatwitch at noon and by Two Good Hanfuls at 2 p.m.
Judging for an apple pie contest is scheduled for 1 p.m.
Warren Commission insider publicly concedes that JFK assassination was likely a conspiracy
Describing someone as a “conspiracy theorist” is usually meant as an insult, suggesting tin-foil hats and babbling rants on late-night radio talk shows. But when it comes to the assassination of U.S. President John F. Kennedy, the list of important, seemingly credible public figures who count themselves as conspiracy theorists is long and impressive.
Fifty years ago this coming week, the President’s Commission on the Assassination of President John F. Kennedy, the panel led by Chief Justice Earl Warren and better known as the Warren Commission, published an 888-page final report that identified Lee Harvey Oswald as the sole gunman in Dealey Plaza and said there was no evidence of a conspiracy, foreign or domestic.
Those findings were meant to put an end to the swirling conspiracy theories about the president’s murder. Yet the theories persisted. Americans had difficulty accepting that the most powerful man in the world could be brought down by a troubled young man wielding a $21 mail-order rifle. And in the wake of the Vietnam War, Watergate and so many other scandals and national tragedies that followed the assassination, people grew increasingly skeptical that the government could be expected to tell them the truth. By the late 1960s, opinion polls showed that most Americans had rejected the findings of the Warren Commission’s report. An April 2013 poll by the Associated Press found that 59% of Americans believed there was a conspiracy in Kennedy’s death. Read more at National Post
Kansas Governor to Sign ‘Zombie Preparedness Month’ Proclamation
It’s never too early to start preparing for the zombie apocalypse — at least if you’re in Kansas. The Kansas Division of Emergency Management is rolling out a campaign asking residents to be ready for just that possibility, with Gov. Sam Brownback set to sign a proclamation Friday designating October as Zombie Preparedness Month. While the idea of an actual zombie attack is just in jest, being ready for any disaster situation isn’t.
“If you’re equipped to handle the zombie apocalypse then you’re prepared for tornadoes, severe storms, fire and any other natural disaster Kansas usually faces,” Devan Tucking, of the Division of Emergency Management, said in a statement. “This is a fun and low-stress way to get families involved, and past turnouts have proven it to be effective.” State officials said preparing for a zombie disaster involves coming up with an emergency plan and gathering adequate survival supplies. – NBC News

Another Whitley Strieber novel is being adapted for the screen.
Syfy has issued a 13-episode order for a new series titled Hunters, based on Strieber’s alien crime drama novel Alien Hunter. The book “chronicles the disappearance of a decorated Philadelphia cop’s wife, which leads him to a secret government unit assembled to hunt a group of ruthless terrorists — shadowy figures that may or may not be from this world,” explains Deadline Hollywood.

“We were so impressed by the pilot script from this outstanding and accomplished creative team led by Gale Anne Hurd and Natalie Chaidez,” states Syfy president Dave Howe. “This fast-paced and innovative program takes viewers inside a chilling yet all too familiar world.”
Gale Anne Hurd is a powerhouse producer, with such shows under her belt as The Walking Dead, the Terminator movies, Aliens, and The Abyss, just to name a few. Earlier this year, AMC announced that The X-Files creator Chris Carter and Hurd are both attached to a new television series in development for the network about Area 51.
Strieber, who is a self-proclaimed abductee, has seen his novels adapted for the screen several times before. The 1989 film Communion, starring Christopher Walken, was based on his book by the same name. And his book The Hunger was adapted for the 1983 film of the same name starring David Bowie and Susan Sarandon.
Scant kilometers from Rincón de los Sauces. “It was nearly flush with the ground, a very powerful, bright, rich orange and fuchsia light. It remained static, as if floating in the air.” It gyrated among the trees before the eyes of a witness who took several photographs. Within minutes, her cellphone had turned off and her vehicle's engine died.
Last Friday, September 19 at 19:00 hours, Silvia Santagatti, a resident of Rincón de los Sauces, was in Puesto Hernández, a location some 15 kilometers from the city, when she came across a very strange situation.
“I was in Puesto Hernández, a filling station, waiting for my husband to return. I was in the pickup truck when I suddenly noticed over to my right a very powerful, bright, rich orange and fuchsia light. It was static, as if floating in the air,” says Silvia.
“As the light remained there, I'm not sure how many seconds elapsed, I felt motivated to get out of the vehicle. The light moved, ascended, became larger for a moment, but the most striking thing is that I was able to take pictures of it.”
“There was no one there, just nature, mountains, a perfect sky and a setting sun,” recalls Silvia with astonishment, near some oil extracting machines known in the area as guanacos (oil jacks). “The thing flew off without making a sound, heading west, and lost itself in the cordillera.” She expressed surprise at the experience she had lived through.
Silvia reports feeling a mixture of “fear and astonishment” at the time, and feels privileged at having been able to photograph it. She is not ready to say that it was “a UFO, an object, or aliens…I simply photographed the light that impressed me. It was incredible!”
“When I was through taking pictures, my cellphone turned off and the pickup's horn didn't go off. I don't know, it was all very strange,” remarks Silvia, adding: “Why should we be so egotistical to think that we are unique? I won't give a name to what I saw, because I don't know what it was. But it certainly wasn't anything commonplace.”
(N.Morgan) Natural Culture Discovery has put together some extraordinary photos of the world of science. The photos will bring you face to face with manta rays and moths, and even closer to microscopic flower buds and human tissue wreathed in nanoparticles, the top ten images represent the best in science photography this year. So let’s explore the remarkable world of science!
In this photos by Gary Cranitch we are treated to one of the largest rays on the planet, is currently listed as vulnerable in eastern Australian waters with recorded individuals numbering in the few hundred. Gary Cranitch’s awe-inspiring image is an important reminder that we still have much to do to ensure the survival of this beautiful species.
In this photos from Dr Mark Talbot, the Dr. uses a electron microscope (SEM) so we can get an up close look into young flower buds of wheat that will eventually become seeds. Using different modes of the SEM, two images of the same tissue were captured, superimposed and artificially colored to highlight cell outlines (blue) and nuclei (orange). This unique way of creating SEM images unexpectedly revealed details normally seen only with a confocal laser microscope, even though the microscopes work in very different ways.
In this photo by Charles Tambiah we explore this striking image of a basket star, Gorgonocephalus sp., has been composed by ‘painting’ with micro-light to peel back layers of science. Utilising the full breadth of tools within imaging software, and fiber-optics for lighting hidden spaces, Charles has painted multiple layers of information out of blackness, unraveling a simple, yet complex, marine invertebrate.
In this stunning photo by Michael Bradshaw, we get a rare view of skin cells with internalized nanoparticles. The large circle is a 10-millimetre cover slip and the bright orange dots are the fluorescent and magnetic nanoparticles inside the cells. The cells are being induced to migrate off to the left of the cover slip via an external magnetic field. This kind of cellular control has implications in wound healing.
I’d have to say this photo by Peter Enright is one of my favorites, in this one he has managed to capture a lucky four-second handheld exposure during a sudden summer storm at the Woodford Folk Festival. The image encapsulates the incredible power of nature.
In this slightly creepy photo by Ralph Grimm, we explore how many animals, particularly insects, have the ability to perceive their surroundings in a totally different way to humans. Ralph Grimm’s textural, close-up image draws the viewer in to reveal the exquisite detail and complexity of a moth’s head, thereby also encouraging people to not just see the surface but to look more closely at our amazing world.
This intriguing photos by Phred Petersen, which he named Flight of the Samara,is a composite of four frames from high-speed video showing the aerodynamics of an auto-rotating winged seed (Samara) common to trees such as maple and ash. This seed was tagged with a theatrical smoke formula to show an integrated picture of the descent of the seed over several rotations. Understanding the aerodynamics of these natural helicopters has application in the bio-inspired design of micro air vehicles.
In this psychedelic photos by Dr. Anne Rios we get an inside glimpse into the inside human breast tissue, shows a 3D view of the elaborated milk-producing ductal network enwrapped within the blood vessels. This photo represents more than 100GB of data, obtained with a new, cutting-edge3D confocal strategy developed at WEHI. It allows a unique visualization of expansive areas of breast tissue with high cellular resolution that could bring new insights in breast cancer.
In this splendid photo by Pete Wheeler, he captures the landscape to show the difference between modern science and ancient history. Using a long exposure and the light of the full moon to illuminate the landscape, Pete Wheeler has captured one of the 128 ‘tiles’ of the radio telescope called the Murchison Widefield Array and a distant ‘breakaway’ beneath a star-studded Murchison sky. Located in the Western Australian outback, the Murchison Widefield Array is a precursor to what will be the largest telescope ever built, the Square Kilometer Array.
In this prickly photo by Richard Wylie we see the Crown-of-thorns Sea Stars have a justifiably bad reputation for causing damage to the Great Barrier Reef. Richard Wylie’s photo, taken at Lizard Island, demonstrates that even one 40-centimetre wide Crown-of-thorns can eat its way through a large area of reef. The white coral, which has been consumed by this sea star, is in sharp contrast to the healthy sections of reef.
The Vatican hosted a conference in 2009 bringing scientists, astronomers, and religious leaders together to discuss the implications on religion and human consciousness if the discovery of extraterrestrial life is found. One of the statements made in the conference was the fact extraterrestrials would be part of God’s creation and therefore regarded as our “extraterrestrial brother.”
The Vatican participated in another 2014 conference in Arizona which again talked about the implications on mankind when we discover life exists in the universe other than Earth. We’ve come a long way from the days of Galileo’s persecution. They’ve been one of the first religions to embrace the future possibility.
NASA and the Library of Congress brought together scientists, theologians, and astronomers to discuss and prepare the world for the” INEVITABLE DISCOVERY” of life in the universe. They don’t stop at just microbe life but go further and added intelligent life. NASA wants to prepare the public before the discovery and the announcement as well as the Vatican. Theologians were invited and one wonder if the scientists were giving the different churches and denominations the heads up. They need to prepare their congregations because the inevitable announcement will come.
Many scientists felt the populations would handle it well and go on with their lives. The question asked at the conference was does an intelligent alien life form have a soul? One of the Jesuit astronomers answered he believes they do and he would be excited with the announcement. Water and exoplanets are being discovered more and more so according to NASA scientists finding life out there is inevitable.
In 1985 waren zes kosmonauten in het ruimtestation Saljoet 7 bezig met het uitvoeren van experimenten, toen het schip plotseling werd gehuld in een oranje waas. De kosmonauten Leonid Kizim, Oleg Atkov, Vladimir Solovjev, Svetlana Savitskaja, Igor Volk en Vladimir Dzjanibekov werden korte tijd verblind door een fel licht. Vervolgens zagen ze buiten het ruimtestation de silhouetten van zeven gedaantes die de ruimtevaarders aan engelen deden denken.
De bemanning bracht het controlecentrum op aarde op de hoogte van de bizarre waarneming. Documenten over het incident werden geclassificeerd als topgeheim. Alle bemanningsleden werden onderworpen aan psychologische en medische onderzoeken, maar ze bleken kerngezond te zijn.
Ook Amerikaanse astronauten zouden aan boord van spaceshuttles van NASA engelachtige wezens hebben gezien. Op 26 december 1994 maakte de Hubble-telescoop honderden foto’s van een soort witte stad in de ruimte. Het verhaal gaat dat de foto’s nooit zijn vrijgegeven, maar dat Amerikaanse functionarissen het rapport van NASA zeer serieus namen.
Een kosmonaut die zes maanden lang in het ruimtestation Mir leefde en werkte, zei dat hij tijdens zijn verblijf samen met zijn partner de meest fantastische visioenen kreeg. Piloten maken vaak melding van soortgelijke fenomenen. Er zijn gevallen bekend waarbij piloten tijdens lange vluchten voelden dat de stuurknuppel werd overgenomen door een ‘onzichtbare hand’. De Amerikaanse luchtmacht concludeerde dat bijna 15 procent van de piloten zoiets heeft meegemaakt. Het wordt niet uitgesloten dat dit fenomeen verantwoordelijk kan zijn geweest voor vliegcrashes.
Specialisten van NASA zeggen dat bovengenoemde fenomenen alleen het resultaat kunnen zijn van hallucinaties. Volgens NASA-psychologen zijn ze het resultaat zijn van factoren als luchtdruk- en temperatuurschommelingen of zuurstofgebrek.

Auteur Gerard Aartsen
Gerard Aartsen is auteur van een nieuw boek over buitenaards bezoek aan onze Aarde. Ook is hij al ruim 30 jaar ‘student’ van de leringen van de Oude Wijsheid.
Deze jarenlange studies en onderzoek hebben geresulteerd in het online naslagwerk ‘Our Elder Brothers Return – A History in Books‘. Nadat hij veel van George Adamski’s meer obscure publicaties had verworven en gelezen, schreef hij George Adamski – A Herald for the Space Brothers, volgens recensenten een verfrissend, academisch werk over Adamski dat inmiddels ook in het Nederlands en Japans vertaald is, terwijl een Duitse uitgave in voorbereiding is.
Gerard Aartsen (1957) schrijft geregeld over de buitenaardse aanwezigheid in het maandblad Share International en is een veelgevraagd gast in internationale radioprogramma’s over UFO’s en aanverwante onderwerpen en heeft lezingen gegeven in Amerika, Europa en Azië. Het nieuwe boek van Gerard Aartsen brengen we graag onder je aandacht via dit artikel van zijn hand. Speciaal voor WantToKnow, maakte Gerard deze gedeeltelijke voorpublicatie uit ‘UFO’s en de ruimtemensen: Hier om te helpen.’
In 1963 schreef de Italiaanse consul Alberto Perego: “Op 20 november 1952 (…) vonden er twee landingen [van UFO’s] plaats: één in Noord-Amerika, in Californië, en de ander in Zuid-Amerika, in Brazilië. Op dezelfde dag werden twee mensen in Amerika persoonlijk door buitenaardse piloten geïnformeerd ‘dat andere planeten bewoond zijn; dat een atoomoorlog op Aarde ernstige verstoringen in de kosmos zou veroorzaken en dat het enige doel van de ruimteschepen ‘beschermend’ is en in het algemeen belang’.
Dit nieuws werd gelijktijdig (en onafhankelijk van elkaar, aangezien ze elkaar niet kenden) naar buiten gebracht door George Adamski in Californië en Dino Kraspedon [pseud. van Aladino Felix; GA] in Brazilië. De eerste was amateur-astronoom, de tweede natuurkundige. Al deze mannen werden vervolgens martelaren, beschuldigd van bedrog, belasterd, op alle mogelijke manieren verdacht gemaakt en bespot door onze ‘wetenschappers’! Als gevolg daarvan weet het publiek wereldwijd tot op de dag van vandaag slechts vaag wat Adamski en Kraspedon tot in detail hebben beschreven.
Eerder hadden andere ‘burgers’ contact met schotels en piloten uit de ruimte gehad: Galbraith in Ontario (1948); Enrico Bossa in Argentinië (1950); Daniel Fry in New Mexico (1950); Truman Bethurum in Californië (1952); Orfeo Angelucci in Californië (1952). Maar allen werden verdacht gemaakt en bespot.
Zoals ik in mijn boek George Adamski – Gezant van de Ruimtebroeders laat zien, begon de gevestigde macht zich ernstig zorgen te maken toen Adamski wereldberoemd werd met de boeken waarin hij zijn ontmoetingen en ervaringen met de mannen en vrouwen van andere planeten in ons zonnestelsel beschreef. Daar hij weigerde zich het zwijgen op te laten leggen door aanzienlijke geldbedragen of intimidatie werden de media ingezet om Adamski en zijn ervaringen te bagatelliseren en te bespotten.
Zoals Adamski tijdens een persconferentie in september 1955 ter promotie van zijn boek Inside the Space Ships zei: “Toen ik onlangs in New York te gast was in het programma van [de Amerikaanse tv-persoonlijkheid] Steve Allen, werd mij gezegd: ‘Laat u geen woorden in de mond leggen. Ons is opgedragen dit hele verhaal te bagatelliseren.’ De man zei niet wie hun dat had opgedragen.” Deze inspanningen waren zó effectief dat velen nu nog steeds vinden dat Adamski maar het best genegeerd kan worden.
Niettemin, zoals Adamski’s contactpersonen uit de ruimte hem vertelden: “…jullie luchtmachten en jullie regeringen weten dat onze schepen die ze in jullie luchtruim zien uit de ruimte afkomstig zijn en alleen door intelligente wezens van andere planeten gemaakt en bestuurd kunnen worden. Wij hebben contact gelegd met hooggeplaatste mensen in de regeringen van jullie wereld.” De Canadese onderzoeker Wilbert Smith bevestigde dit toen hij zei: “…ieder land op deze planeet is officieel geïnformeerd over het bestaan van de schepen en hun bemanningen uit de ruimte…” Deze notie wordt verder bevestigd door vele anderen, onder wie Benjamin Creme, die in zijn boek ‘De Bundeling van de Krachten van Licht – De geestelijke missie van de UFO’s‘ schrijft: “De Amerikaanse regering weet, evenals alle andere regeringen, dat ufo’s bestaan.”
Amerikaanse regering weet veel meer.. Deze verklaringen lijken ook door de Amerikaanse regering zelf te worden bevestigd in het eerste jaarverslag van de Speciale Commissie voor UFO-onderzoek van de Amerikaanse president (omstreeks 1948), in een paragraaf getiteld ‘Overheidsbeleid voor beheersing en ontkenning’: “Een van de moeilijkste aspecten in het beheersen van het publieke denken over overheidsinspanningen om informatie te ontkennen en te negeren is de feitelijke controle over de pers. Totdat een duidelijk plan is vastgesteld, vooral inzake diplomatieke betrekkingen, beveelt de Speciale Commissie van de President, met instemming van ‘Majestic Twelve’, een beleid van strikte ontkenning aan ten aanzien van de gebeurtenissen rond Roswell, New Mexico, en enig ander incident van een dergelijk kaliber. Er moet een programma worden opgezet in de vorm van gecontroleerde berichten voor interactie met de media, teneinde elke vorm van civiel onderzoek verdacht te maken, conform de maatregelen zoals neergelegd in de ‘Wet op de Nationale Veiligheid’ van 1947.”
De brief van president Harry Truman waarin de oprichting van ‘Majestic-12′ wordt bekrachtigd.
Majestic-12 Een groep van twaalf zorgvuldig geselecteerde individuen – 6 burgers en 6 militairen (2 uit de landmacht, de marine en ook 2 uit de luchtmacht), die in de jaren ’40 de taak had gekregen om zoveel mogelijk informatie te verzamelen over de buitenaardse aanwezigheid en bedoelingen.
UFO-onderzoeker Stanton T. Friedman, die onderzoek heeft gedaan naar de authenticiteit van deze groep, vond in de loop van zijn naspeuringen een document in het Nationaal Archief van de VS in College Park (Maryland), gedateerd 14 juli 1954.
Dit document had alle kenmerken van een officieel overheidsdocument, compleet met watermerk en de geheimhoudingsclassificatie ‘MJ-12′ als verwijzing naar ‘Majestic-12′ of ‘Majic-12′, dat dus nog geheimer was dan ‘topgeheim’, plus originele aantekeningen die aangeven dat de geheimhouding van het stuk was opgeheven. Het document vormt belangrijk bewijs voor het bestaan van de Majestic-12 onderzoeksgroep. (zie afbeelding)
Het overheidsbeleid van verzwijging en bespotting werd zo goed als toegegeven door de derde directeur van de CIA, vice-admiraal Roscoe H. Hillenkoetter, toen de New York Times van 28 februari 1960 uit zijn mond optekende: “Het wordt tijd dat de waarheid onthuld wordt in openbare hoorzittingen van het Congres… Achter de schermen maken hooggeplaatste luchtmachtofficieren zich ernstig zorgen over de UFO’s. Maar officiële geheimhouding en hoon doen veel burgers geloven dat de onbekende vliegende voorwerpen flauwekul zijn…”21
George Adamski in de begintijd van zijn ontdekkingen. Hij kreeg al snel minder aandacht toen een anti-Adamski-campagne tegen hem werd gelanceerd. Inmiddels is er bijna niemand meer die met een open blik naar zijn ontdekkingen kan kijken..!
Als een van de eerste slachtoffers van de grootschalige hekelarij die voortkwam uit deze geheimhouding zei George Adamski: “Ik verzeker u dat de prijs voor het verspreiden van deze informatie bijzonder hoog is. De skepsis en spot die ik te verduren heb, stellen mij in staat mee te voelen met anderen die aarzelen om over hun ervaringen met de bezoekers te vertellen. Het is ironisch dat juist dit ongeloof de deuren wijd geopend heeft voor imitaties en leugens, die slechts tot verdere verwarring leiden. Deze aanhoudende ontkenningen hebben de ware feiten voor het publiek verborgen gehouden. Zovelen zijn in hun naarstig zoeken misleid en weten niet dat de buitenaardsen normale mensen zijn. Dezelfde skepsis en spot hebben een grote rol gespeeld bij het tot zwijgen brengen van onze leiders over de feiten die hen door de interplanetariërs zijn verstrekt.”
Adamski stond bepaald niet alleen in zijn ervaring. De Italiaanse journalist Bruno Ghibaudi werkte in 1963 aan een tv-programma over mensen die beweerden dat zij vliegende schotels hadden gezien of er foto’s van hadden gemaakt. In een interview dat jaar vertelde hij dat het geen eenvoudige taak was, “want zoveel mensen die dergelijke ervaringen hebben gehad of zulke foto’s hebben genomen en er vrijelijk over gesproken hadden, zijn hun baan kwijtgeraakt of werden onderworpen aan een stortvloed van spot en laster, of urenlang ondervraagd door de autoriteiten, zodat ze er nu hun buik vol van hebben en ongenegen waren hun mond verder nog open te doen.” Het programma werd uiteindelijk geannuleerd, maar Ghibaudi zette zijn onderzoek voort.
De decennialange geheimhouding en moedwillige pogingen van regeringen om het publiek in verwarring te brengen en angst aan te jagen over de aard van de UFO’s en de bezoekers uit de ruimte, heeft zelfs zijn uitwerking niet gemist op de mensen die zich inzetten om de waarheid te ontfutselen aan geheime overheidsagentschappen en heeft geleid tot steeds wildere speculaties. Sinds de karaktermoord die in de jaren ’50 en ’60 op Adamski werd gepleegd, kunnen UFO’s niet langer afkomstig zijn van de andere planeten in ons zonnestelsel, menen velen, maar nog slechts uit andere melkwegstelsels.
Het zouden de Nazi’s geweest zijn die als eersten (?) in staat waren om met electro-magnetische krachten het Aardse zwaartekrachtveld te bedwingen.. (klik voor artikel hier op WantToKnow)
Recentelijk lijkt ook dat nog maar één optie en zelfs enkele van de meer gerespecteerde onderzoekers op dit gebied lijken het mogelijk te achten dat UFO’s van een geheime gemeenschap op Aarde afkomstig zijn. Eén theorie, als men het zo kan noemen, gaat als volgt: “Wat als de nazi’s of hun afstammelingen erin geslaagd zijn anti-zwaartekrachttechnologie te ontwikkelen om hun geheime ruimtevaartuigen voort te stuwen? Zou het dan niet logisch zijn dat ze hun technologie hebben gebruikt om naar een buitenaardse locatie te ontsnappen?”
Gegeven alle geheime operaties van overheden en legers om het bestaan van de ruimtemensen te verhullen, zo luidt deze redenering, is het goed mogelijk dat er een ‘losgebroken beschaving’ bestaat die uiterst geavanceerde technologie voor de rest van ons verborgen houdt, en waarom zouden ze dan niet van plan zijn de Aarde te koloniseren voor hun eigen gewin?
Het probleem met deze ‘redenering’ is natuurlijk dat het grootste deel van de mensheid en de opbrengsten van de Aarde al ‘gekoloniseerd’ zijn door juist die economische machten die er alles aan doen om het publiek over de buitenaardse bezoekers onkundig te houden.
Getuigenissen van nóg meer ‘contactees’.. Al in de jaren ’50 meende de Canadese onderzoeker en contactee Wilbert Smith dat politici niet bereid waren om zich uit te spreken over de ware aard van de buitenaardse bezoekers, omdat zij bang waren dat er voor het onderwerp van de UFO’s geen draagvlak onder het publiek bestond: “Vanwege het soort publiciteit waaronder de hele kwestie van de vliegende schotels lijdt, zijn politici, die van nature bijzonder gevoelig zijn voor de publieke opinie, onwillig om hun nek uit te steken.”
Voor George Adamski was de reden voor deze negatieve publiciteit duidelijk. Hij vertelde zijn Zwitserse contactpersoon Lou Zinsstag in 1955: “Het is heel begrijpelijk, want degenen die de pers en alle informatiekanalen beheersen, vrezen de waarheid, dus proberen ze die zo goed mogelijk voor het publiek te verbergen. Zij zijn degenen die het monetaire stelsel van de wereld beheersen…”
Het is vooral Benjamin Creme die met een niet aflatende ijver, vanaf de vroeg jaren 1980, zijn verhaal over de komst van de ‘Maitreya’ blijft verkondigen.. Ondanks alle bespotting en het ridiculiseren van zijn gedachtegoed.
Esotericus Benjamin Creme, die in de jaren ’50 met de ruimtemensen werkte, zegt: “In de VS bestaat een agentschap dat als enige doel heeft de realiteit van ufo’s te verdraaien” en dat al meer dan 60 jaar actief is. “Op deze manier behouden de mensen in, of zelfs achter, de regeringen van de wereld hun macht,” aldus Creme. “Immers”, zegt hij, “Regeringen doen wat ze doen uit onwetendheid en angst.
Men begrijpt dat als de mensheid weet dat de Ruimtebroeders werkelijk bestaan en de ruimteschepen die zo’n beheersing hebben over ruimte en tijd werkelijk bestaan, wij ze om hulp zouden kunnen vragen, omdat onze regeringen kennelijk niet weten wat ze moeten doen. Ze zouden de mensheid kunnen adviseren en onderrichten. Wie heeft een regering nodig zoals we die momenteel kennen, wanneer deze goedgezinde, onschadelijke wezens klaar staan om ons te helpen?”
Buitenaardse heersers sinds het begin? Zo zijn we in de 60 jaar sinds de komst van de UFO’s en van de bezoekers uit de ruimte in de doofpot werd gestopt of als boosaardig werd aangemerkt, geleidelijk afgezakt van ‘ontvoeringen’ door kwaadaardige ‘aliens’ voor het aanbrengen van ‘implantaten’, het uitvoeren van ‘experimenten’ op mensen, het ‘oogsten van genen’, het ‘kweken van mengrassen’ en ‘verminken’ van vee, naar het naspeuren van de afstamming van de machtige financieel-economische families tot een duizenden jaren oud geheim genootschap van ‘reptielachtigen’ van buitenaardse of zelfs inheemse oorsprong die naar willekeur van uiterlijk kunnen veranderen.
Deze zogeheten ‘Illuminati’ (of ‘Nephilim’, of ‘Anunnaki’, afhankelijk van de complottheorie van uw voorkeur), zou bezig zijn de mensheid te onderwerpen aan hun ‘Nieuwe Wereldorde’, terwijl anderen serieus opperen dat er reden is om te geloven in een ‘losgebroken samenleving’ die zich ergens in het zonnestelsel verscholen houdt (op de maan?! Mars?), in afwachting van een gelegenheid om de Aarde voor hun eigen gebruik in te nemen –alsof de economische en financiële structuren niet al in handen van de mondiale elite zijn.
Deze wereldelite kan weliswaar in afzondering samenzweren om te proberen haar macht veilig te stellen, maar recente massale volksbewegingen als de ‘Arabische Lente’, de Indignados en de wereldwijde ‘Occupy’-beweging in door schulden verlamde Westerse landen laten zien dat zij het tij tegen hebben. De mensheid ontwaakt uit zijn kosmische sluimer en als we de oorspronkelijke contactees en een groeiend aantal functionarissen mogen geloven zijn de ruimtemensen nu hier in de UFO’s om ons bij te staan in deze cruciale overgangsperiode in de geschiedenis van de mensheid.

(N.Morgan) This fast moving object was captured over Waterford Ireland and appears to be the same sort of object that was flying over Arizona last week. This object certainly is making the rounds around the globe and it causing a stir in the UFO community. What is this craft? Is it military or something else?
This new UFO sighting video of a fast bright object flying across the sky above Waterford in Ireland. This was recorded on Monday, 22nd September 2014.
Not just one, but two strong solar flares burst off the sun’s surface this week — and now Earth is getting hit with the aftermath.
While the solar storm headed our way may affect power lines, radio transmissions, communication systems and satellites to a small degree, scientists say it’s nothing to worry about.
“We’re not scared of this one,” Tom Berger, director of the Space Weather Prediction Center in Boulder, Colorado, told the AP.
An X1.6 class solar flare flashes in the middle of the sun on Sept. 10, 2014. This image was captured by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory and shows light in the 131 Angstrom wavelength, which is typically colorized in teal.
“Geomagnetic storms can cause some problems for the (power) grid but are typically very manageable,” Bill Murtagh, space weather forecaster for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, told USA Today. “We may also see some anomalies with satellites so satellite operators around the world have been notified. And problems with the accuracy of GPS have been observed with this level of storming.”
One of the most curious stories circulating on the Internet, is the existence of an artificial satellite orbiting the planet every 15 or 20 years, known as “the black knight”.

The story goes back to 1899. Around this time, Tesla moved to a laboratory in Colorado Springs to start his experiments with high voltage and electric field measurements. During the eight months he was there, he spent part of his time to developing small signals and receivers measure the ability of a vertical antenna. During his tests, Tesla caught a periodic signal coming from somewhere in space.
But it was not until 14 May 1954 when the history of the satellite of unknown origin took shape. In the newspaper “St Louis Post Dispatch” and the “San Francisco Examiner” were two articles in which the presence of two satellites in orbit around our planet at a time mentioned, lest we forget, in which no nation none had yet set (Sputnik was launched at the end of 57).
In 1960 both the Soviet Union and the United States already had satellites in orbit, but on February 11 the alarm went off again, as it detected one not identified in a polar orbit, that neither the Russians nor the Americans recognize as their own . Was it again the black knight?
Three years later, Gordon Cooper was launched into space to make the mission to circle the Earth 22. In his last orbit, reported seeing a light in front of his capsule. It is said that the Muchea tracking station, in Australia, caught the radar echo of the object reported by Cooper. They say that the version of NASA is that the ventilation equipment malfunctioned and excess CO2 did see hallucinations astronaut. At the time this mysterious object has already called him “the black knight”.
In 1973, Duncan Lunan a Scottish researcher, wrote an article in Spaceflight, a journal of the British Interplanetary Society, in which he detailed how he had identified and decoded a message issued in 1920 from a satellite in Earth orbit, captured by a Norwegian and German researchers who were conducting a study on the effect of long delay echo .Lunan maintained that the message came from an object in the L5 Lagrange point , and contained an invitation of the inhabitants of a planet from the star system Epsilon Boötis. According to him, the message said:
Start here. Our house is in Boötis Epsilon, which is a double star. We live on the sixth planet of seven of the larger of the two suns. The sixth planet has a moon. Our fourth planet has three. Our first and third planets, one each. The probe is in the position of Arcturus, as our maps.
But the graphic evidence came with the space shuttle mission STS-88, the first mission was to bring the equipment to the ISS. Endeavour cameras captured several foreign objects, and photographs were published in the repositirio NASA. But apparently, after a few days, the photos disappeared. But they had already been published elsewhere:
According to NASA, what you see in these images are remnants of the shuttle itself.
Is it true that a satellite orbiting the Earth, thousands of years old, issuing an invitation for a meeting between civilizations? Why are we hiding?
If you like this kind of stories, do not read, but if you prefer to know the truth, you should.

In 1899 Nicola Tesla caught the signal from a pulsar . A pulsar is a neutron star that periodically emits radiation. Pulsars have a strong magnetic field that induces the emission of these pulses of electromagnetic radiation at regular intervals related to the rotation period of the object. In fact, in 1967 when Jocelyn Bell and Antony Hewish officially discovered the first pulsar, also believed they had contacted an intelligent civilization, since the frequency of the signal seems to eliminate the possibility of a natural phenomenon.
News of 1954 in which the existence of one or two ships stated orbiting Earth are, if we read them, sarcastic notes you talking about Donald Keyhoe , a pilot in the U.S. Army, who became famous in 1950 by stating that the United States was conducting experiments on UFOs, and for that year was promoting his book ” Flying Saucers from Outer Space “. To do this you will not think of anything else to testify that the Secretary of the Air Force was aware of the existence of these two ships, which was immediately denied, as described in the articles. (Pinchad on the picture to enlarge it and to read it).
The Discoverer were a series of reconnaissance satellites that were launched between 1959 and 1972. On August 14, 1959 the retrorocket the Discoverer VIII was activated from the ground but the ship was not in the correct position and what happened was that instead of decelerate and enter the atmosphere, it shot to a higher orbit and went missing. The network scanning satellites Dark Fence, which was put into operation in late 1959 this object detected in February 1960, but a few days later got identified as the Discoverer VIII satellite lost months ago. This article (also published in media such as Time, in references) is rarely cited in the websites that talk about the Black Knight.
Gordon Cooper saw no UFO in his space mission. He always refused, as we read in the journal Space .
Cooper flatly denied the oft-repeated assertion by several authors over the years, including Allen Hynek and Jacques Vallee, that he saw an object in its mission Mercury 9 in 1963. On the “Coast to Coast” Cooper program said :
“No. Someone made a lot of money selling … lies like that. It is completely false. “
The interpretation of LDEs (echoes of long delay) by Duncan Lunan, it is still an exercise in imagination. When a signal to the atmosphere, releases sometimes reaches an echo returned after a period of up to 15seconds.The delay is so large that can not be attributed to weather conditions or magnetic storms. So far the cause is still not entirely understood, but the interpretation of the randomness of the echoes can be done in the way that most interests. The DSLs are due to an atmospheric phenomenon that will soon understand.
Images from NASA are plastic, leftover wrappers and even hats left in the cargo compartment of the shuttle, and go out into space when the floodgates open cargo hold. So in 2010 I responded to a message I sent to JPL to ask for a similar object photographed on the STS-98 mission. The objects moving at low relative velocity with respect to the ship, like the one pictured in the STS-88 mission, from the same ferry.
The photos were never deleted. The published references that fail, use the ftp protocol instead of http. You may would change directory and therefore fails to access via ftp. The correct addresses are these:
And in this video you can see that what you see in the photos that are most often attributed to the black knight is actually a blanket that they missed the astronauts of the STS-88 mission.
Exclusief: Britse overheid brengt meer informatie over UFO's naar buiten
Exclusief: Britse overheid brengt meer informatie over UFO’s naar buiten
Het Britse ministerie van Defensie heeft aangekondigd meer topgeheime UFO-stukken openbaar te maken. Hoewel het ministerie eerder zei dat alle informatie over UFO’s was vrijgegeven, meldt de Daily Star dat volgend jaar nog eens 18 documenten worden geopenbaard.
Medewerkers van het ministerie claimden afgelopen juni dat de laatste X-Files waren vrijgegeven. De overheid gaat dit nieuwe archief echter ook declassificeren. Eind dit jaar worden de stukken opgenomen in het Britse Nationaal Archief.
Het publiek krijgt rond september 2015 toegang tot de documenten. Nick Pope, van 1991 tot 1994 voorzitter van de UFO-desk op het Britse ministerie van Defensie, legde uit hoe belangrijk de stukken zijn. “Het ministerie heeft zich ernstig in verlegenheid gebracht en jaagt UFO-enthousiastelingen tegen zich in het harnas,” zei hij. “Toen de overheid zei dat alle UFO-files waren vrijgegeven, beweerden complottheoretici dat niet alles openbaar was gemaakt. Het blijkt nu dat ze al die tijd gelijk hebben gehad.”
Hij voegde toe: “In de 18 documenten valt te lezen over UFO-waarnemingen door radarspecialisten van de luchtmacht en de ultra-geheime Defence Intelligence Staff, een onderdeel van het ministerie met ondersteuning van de SIS (MI6) en de geallieerde inlichtingendiensten. We kunnen fascinerende onthullingen verwachten.”
De Britse overheid heeft verspreid over vijf jaar alle beschikbare informatie vrijgegeven over buitenaardsen en UFO’s. Eerder bestonden al vermoedens dat de meer gevoelige cases werden achtergehouden door defensie.
In 2007 besloot het ministerie al haar UFO-files vrij te geven, nadat de Franse overheid een jaar eerder hetzelfde had gedaan. Indertijd werd het ministerie overstelpt met Wob-verzoeken, waarvan de meeste betrekking hadden op UFO’s.
Een getuige zag een schotelvormig schip met lichten ter grootte van een voetbalveld. In een ander document valt te lezen over een groep mensen die langs de weg stopten toen ze een UFO boven de rivier de Theems zagen.
Natuurkundige levert wiskundig bewijs dat zwarte gaten niet bestaan
Natuurkundige levert wiskundig bewijs dat zwarte gaten niet bestaan
Zwarte gaten spreken al geruime tijd sterk tot de verbeelding. Ze staan voor het grote onbekende. Het zijn de zwartste en zwaarste objecten in het universum van waaruit zelfs licht niet kan ontsnappen. Alsof dat nog niet bizar genoeg is, heeft een wetenschapper nu wiskundig bewijs geleverd dat zwarte gaten niet bestaan.
Hoogleraar natuurkunde Laura Mersini-Houghton van de Universiteit van North Carolina in Chapel Hill heeft aan de hand van twee theorieën aangetoond dat zwarte gaten niet kunnen bestaan. Het onderzoek dwingt wetenschappers de structuur van ruimtetijd en de oorsprong van het universum te herzien.
“Ik ben nog steeds in shock,” zei Mersini-Houghton. “We bestuderen dit probleem al meer dan 50 jaar. We hebben veel om over na te denken.” Al tientallen jaren wordt gedacht dat zwarte gaten ontstaan na de ineenstorting van een grote ster.
De zwaartekrachttheorie van Einstein voorspelt het ontstaan van zwarte gaten, maar een fundamentele wet van de kwantumtheorie stelt dat informatie niet uit het universum kan verdwijnen. Dit leidde tot The Black Hole War, het debat over de vraag of informatie die in een zwart gat valt voor altijd is verdwenen of in een andere vorm blijft bestaan. Als informatie zou verdwijnen, zou dit vergaande consequenties hebben, namelijk dat de kwantummechanica geen recht van bestaan heeft.
In 1974 liet Stephen Hawking aan de hand van de kwantummechanica zien dat zwarte gaten straling uitzenden. Sindsdien detecteren wetenschappers ‘vingerafdrukken’ in de kosmos die overeenkomen met deze straling. Ze gaan er vanuit dat het zwarte gaten zijn.
Mersini-Houghton en Hawking zijn het erover eens dat een ster Hawkingstraling produceert als hij onder zijn eigen gewicht abrupt ineenstort. Terwijl de ster straling uitzendt verliest hij ook massa, tot het punt waarop hij te weinig massa heeft om nog een zwart gat te kunnen worden.
Voordat een zwart gat gevormd kan worden, zwelt de stervende ster nog één keer op om vervolgens te exploderen. Mersini-Houghton heeft berekend dat een singulariteit en een waarnemingshorizon nooit daadwerkelijk ontstaan. Haar conclusie is dan ook dat zwarte gaten niet bestaan.
Veel natuurkundigen en astronomen geloven dat ons universum is ontstaan uit een singulariteit die na de Big Bang begon uit te dijen. Als singulariteiten niet bestaan, moeten natuurkundigen hun ideeën over de oerknal herzien.
“Natuurkundigen hebben deze twee theorieën – de zwaartekrachttheorie van Einstein en de kwantummechanica – al decennialang tevergeefs geprobeerd te verenigen, maar in dit scenario worden beide theorieën in harmonie samengebracht,” zei Mersini-Houghton. “En dat betekent nogal wat.”
Nvidia probeert complottheorieën maanlanding te ontkrachten
Nvidia probeert complottheorieën maanlanding te ontkrachten
Hardwarefabrikant Nvidia heeft een video gemaakt waarin het met behulp van een simulatie probeert complottheorieën rondom de maanlanding te ontkrachten. Het bedrijf heeft een techniek gebruikt om de belichting zo realistisch mogelijk te simuleren. Dat gebeurt door middel van voxels, een soort driedimensionale pixels.
Door de techniek toe te passen in een real-time simulatie van de eerste bemande maanlanding in 1969, beweert Nvidia dat het enkele argumenten kan weerleggen die zouden bewijzen dat de landing nooit heeft plaatsgevonden.
Op een bekende foto van de maanlanding van Apollo 11 zijn geen sterren zichtbaar, wat volgens sceptici wijst op trucage. Ook werd Buzz Aldrin duidelijk belicht terwijl hij in de schaduw van de maanlander stond. De verlichting is volgens Nvidia te danken aan het zonlicht dat reflecteerde op het ruimtepak van Neil Armstrong. Het gebrek aan sterren zou het gevolg zijn van de instellingen op de gebruikte camera. De camera was ingesteld op daglicht en kon het zwakke licht van de sterren niet registreren, zo luidt de verklaring.
De maanreizen waren zo ingewikkeld en gevaarlijk dat sommige mensen niet kunnen geloven dat ze echt zijn uitgevoerd. In 1974 publiceerde schrijver Bill Kaysing een boek waarin hij beweerde dat de Amerikanen nooit op de maan zijn geweest. De film Capricorn One uit 1978 gaat over een expeditie naar Mars. Er wordt een raket gelanceerd, maar de rest van de reis wordt opgenomen in een filmstudio. Na de film geloofden veel mensen dat de maanlanding nooit echt heeft plaatsgevonden.
Volgens de aanhangers van de complottheorieën rond de maanlanding hebben de NASA en andere betrokkenen het publiek om de tuin geleid door foto’s, films, steenmonsters en ander materiaal te manipuleren of te vervalsen. Voor het bedrog zijn volgens complottheoretici allerlei aanwijzingen. Vooral de foto’s vormen een onuitputtelijke bron. Zo staan op één van de foto’s vormen die op de letter ‘c’ lijken.
In the next image two anomalies, the left object looks like a manufactured railing or decoration on a fence or maybe on top of a building, the second object to the right looks like a very small body/head.

UFO mania: Live abduction Malaysian Airline plane??
UFO mania: Live abduction Malaysian Airline plane??
Satellite images captured the moment the plane was abducted by three UFOs. also a shot from a different angle with an infrared camera.
Aliens have been abducting ships and planes in the Bermuda Triangle for as long as civilized people have been sailing those seas. Could the aliens have decided to abduct yet another plane form a different place?“
We are not ruling out any possibilities,” Malaysia Airlines CEO Ahmad Jauhari Yahya told a news conference full of journalists.
De laatste jaren lijken ze niet meer zo in trek, de “Men in Black”. Toch horen ze onlosmakelijk verbonden met de ufo folklore. De mannen in het zwart. Er is veel over geschreven, veel onderzocht en vooral ook veel over beweerd. Toch is nooit echt duidelijk geworden wie deze mannen waren, en in veel gevallen, of ze ook wel echt hebben bestaan. Toch zijn er hier en daar voorvallen die dan toch weer twijfel zaaien. Kortom, het mysterie van de mannen in het zwart.
Op 30 November 1987, bij het aanbreken van de dag stond er iemand op Ilkley Moor in West Yorkshire.
Deze voormalige politieman die we hier Philip Spencer zullen noemen, was een foto aan het nemen van het dorpje Menston, een stukje lager, toen hij op een afstandje een vreemde “entiteit” in een groene waas opmerkte.
Het volgende wat hij zich kan herinneren was dat hij enige tijd later in Menston aankwam, verward en gedesoriënteerd. Hij bracht zijn film naar de winkel om het te laten ontwikkelen en toen hij twee uur later de afdrukken van zijn film bekeek, bleek dat hij een foto van de “entiteit” had.
Spencer maakte zich zorgen over zijn vreemde ontmoeting, zocht het adres van de ufo onderzoeker Jenny Randles op en stuurde haar een brief waarin hij zijn ervaringen beschreef.
Zij bracht hem in contact met een andere onderzoeker, Peter Hough, die voorstelde dat Spencer zichzelf en zijn foto aan een gedegen onderzoek zou onderwerpen. Spencer zegde zijn volledige medewerking toe.
Toen het onderzoek zo’n zes weken bezig was, kreeg Spencer onverwachts bezoek van twee mannen, die zich voorstelden als Jefferson en Davis van de inlichtingendienst van de RAF (Luchtmacht). Ze legden uit dat ze gekomen waren voor de foto die Spencer op Ilkley Moore had gemaakt. Jammer genoeg voor hen hd Spencer deze aan Hough gegeven.
Ontstemd verlieten de twee mannen het pand.
Wat Spencer niet begreep was, hoe de twee van het bestaan van de foto afwisten. Alleen zijn vrouw, Jenny Randles, Peter Hough en Arthur Tomlinson, een andere onderzoeker die die zich met het geval bezig hield, waren op de hoogte. Hough nam contact op met de inlichtingendienst van de RAF om de identiteit van de bezoekers te bevestigen. Hij kreeg te horen dat de namen niet bij de RAF bekend waren en dat zij nooit een bezoek aan Spencer hadden gebracht.
Dat was voor Hough een reden om te vermoeden dat Spencer onderworpen was geweest aan een van de vreemdste bijproducten van het tegenwoordige ufofenomeen, de “Mannen in het zwart (Men in black).
Het zou verleidelijk zijn Spencers verhaal weg te wuiven als een verzinsel van een overactieve fantasie, ware het niet dat Dr Jim Singelton, de klinisch psycholoog die Spencer had onderzocht, rapporteerde dat hij “naar zijn eigen gevoel de waarheid vertelde”.
Bovendien is Spencer bij lange na niet de enige wie zoiets is overkomen.
De dossiers van ufo onderzoekers oer de hele wereld puilen uit van hetzelfde soort verhalen over sinistere mannen in het zwart (MIB), die hun slachtoffers alleen maar bezoeken om te zorgen dat ze hun mond houden.
Geheim agenten ?
Hoewel de details van de verhalen behoorlijk verschillen, zijn er genoeg gelijkenissen om een onderliggend patroon te veronderstellen.
MIB’s maken altijd hun aanwezigheid voelbaar vlak nadat een ufo gezien is of iemand een ontmoeting met een buitenaards wezen heeft gehad.
Ze doen dat of per telefoon of door een bezoek aan hetzij de ufo getuige, hetzij de onderzoeker die met de zaak bezig is.
Als ze persoonlijk hun opwachting maken is dat meestal met zijn tweeën of drieën, en zijn ze in het zwart gekleed of in uniform. Vaak arriveren ze in een zwarte auto, oud maar in tip top conditie.
Sommige MIB’s identificeren zich, maar de namen die ze geven blijken altijd vals te zijn. Het merkwaardigste is dat de MIB’s in bijna alle gevallen gedetailleerde informatie over het slachtoffer en zijn ervaring hebben die hijzelf alleen maar kan verifiëren. Bovendien leggen ze hun bezoek slechts enkele uren na een ufo incident af. Hoe weten ze het zo snel ?
Naar de mening van sommige ufo onderzoekers zijn de enige mensen met toegang tot dit soort informatie geheim agenten van de regering. Deze onderzoekers geloven dat de mysterieuze vreemdelingen onderdeel uitmaken van een campagne om geheime regeringsoperaties voor het publiek geheim te houden.
Wat er precies geheim gehouden moet worden is niet duidelijk., maar er wordt algemeen aangenomen dat het om een uiterst geheime militaire programma gaat. Volgens de theorie verklaart dit de valse identiteitspapieren van de MIB’s en waarom regerings instanties altijd elke betrokkenheid ontkennen.
Ook beweerd een aantal ufologen dat regeringen er op uit zijn te voorkomen dat de waarheid over ufo’s bij het publiek bekend wordt. In deze context zouden de MIB’s deel uitmaken van een samenzwering van de regering die wordt uitgevoerd door inlichtingendiensten ten einde ufo getuigen en onderzoekers tot zwijgen te dwingen.
Een rare kant aan de samenzweringstheorie is dat de dreigementen van de MIB’s nooit uitgevoerd worden. Als hier sprake is van geheim agenten is het merkwaardig dat geen van de mensen die de instructies van de MIB’s in de wind hebben geslagen ooit met geweld zijn gestraft.
Bizar gedrag
Sommige MIB bezoeken zijn volkomen geloofwaardig en wekken alleen achterdocht door valse identiteitspapieren of het feit dat ze toegang tot privé informatie lijken te hebben. Maar wat het mysterie nog ingewikkelder maakt, is dat andere gevallen gekenmerkt worden door een groot aantal niet plausibele details.
Een byzonder geval had te maken met een ufo kidnapping van twee mannen in Oktober 1975, de periode dat de ufo activiteiten in de staat Maine (VS) op hun hoogtepunt waren. Bijna een jaar na het incident, op 11 September 1976 zat de onderzoekende psychiater, Dr Herbert Hopkins, alleen thuis te werken toen hij een telefoontje kreeg.
Het was iemand die zei een ufo onderzoeker te zijn en vroeg of hij langs mocht komen. Nog geen minuut later stond hij voor de achterdeur. “Ik zag geen auto, en zelfs als hij een auto had, kon hij nooit zo snel van een telefooncel bij mijn huis zijn gekomen”, vertelde Hopkins.
Zijn bezoeker adviseerde Hopkins al zijn dossiers over het kidnappings geval te vernietigen. Hopkins stelde een paar vragen over ufo’s en merkte dat de vreemdeling moeite met praten kreeg. De man stond bevend op, strompelde naar de deur en verontschuldigde zich en zei, “Mijn energie is aan het verdwijnen… Ik moet nu gaan..”
Pas nadat zijn bezoeker was verdwenen realiseerde Hopkins zich hoe vreemd hij eruit had gezien> Hij had een ouderwets zwart pak dat er gloednieuw uitzag, was volkomen kaal en had geen wenkbrauwen of wimpers. En het vreemdste: Hij had lippenstift op.
Paranormale connectie ?
Dr Hopkins heeft ons een van de betrouwbaarste en gedetailleerde rapporten over een MIB bezoek gegeven dat we hebben.
Daar sommige aspecten van zijn verhaal aan het absurde grenzen, toont het het mysterie op zijn bizarst. Sommige onderzoekers hebben opgemerkt dat het gedrag en de verschijning van veel MIB mannen iets surrealistische hebben, als uit een droom. Dit zou kunnen suggereren dat MIB’s niet voor 100% een fysiek fenomeen zijn, een visie die wordt ondersteund door degenen die menen dat MIB’s buitenaardse wezens zijn.
Andere onderzoekers hebben geprobeerd een psychologisch antwoord te vinden op het MIB fenomeen. De Amerikaanse ufo onderzoeker Dr Alvin Lawson heeft opgemerkt dat alle vreemdelingen die betrokken zijn bij ufo incidenten, en een overweldigende meerderheid van de rapporten, vooral in de VS, beschrijven MIB’s als “buitenlands uitziend”, overeenkomsten tonen met archetypen die volgens psycholoog Carl Jung in de onderbewuste verbeeldingswereld van elk mens verborgen liggen.
Zou het kunnen zijn dat het bezoek van een echt persoon bij zo iemand als Hopkins een reactie in diens verbeeldingswereld veroorzaakt waardoor een reeks bizarre, droomachtige dingen gebeuren ?
Voor Dr Lawson is het echte raadsel niet zozeer wat “het slachtoffer” ziet, maar waardoor die archetype achtige beelden naar boven komen, een raadsel waar hij geen oplossing voor heeft.
Gebrek aan bewijs
Het vreemdste aan het MIB fenomeen is dat het een onderdeel is geworden van de ufomythologie zonder dat er werkelijke bewijzen voor hun bestaan zijn. Er blijven rapporten over bezoeken van MIB’s komen, maar het gaat altijd om een verhaal van één persoon. Om de verwarring nog groter te maken zijn er tegenwoordig regeringsinstanties in Engeland die openlijk toegeven geintresseerd te zijn in ufo waarnemingen, de zwarte driehoeken die men overal in Europa heeft gezien zijn het meest recent, maar tegelijkertijd blijven ontkennen dat ze op enigerlei wijze betrokken zijn bij het MIB fenomeen.
A reader (T-Bear) recalls the description of a very unusual incident witnessed by his mother and several of her family members. I was unable to recover additional information in regards to the episode. If anyone has knowledge of this alleged UFO crash, please feel free to forward:
My mother and her family were working in Naples, Florida in the late 1950′s. One day-worker saw something crash nearby. A plane? All the workers ran to the site to search for survivors. The aircraft was sticking out of the sea near the beach. When the rescue got there, they realize it wasn’t a plane, but some type of spacecraft.
The “ship” had no doors or windows that could be seen. Beside the ship was one of the pilots. The pilot was still in it’s bizarre space suit. It was tall and very skinny. But had a very large helmet. The helmet didn’t have a shield but a robotic looking face plate. Two of the workers picked it up and said it had little weight. It appeared to be dead. Others found a second suit. The suit was empty. It was laying in the nearby grass. Still others tried to get into the ship to look for anymore survivors.
Then suddenly, an Army helicopter appeared. The Army came in great numbers to secure the location. Troops surrounded the workers’ camp and force them to stay. They were there for two days afterward. The military told the workers that no one would believe them if they told what transpired. “Who would believe hobos, drunks, and uneducated Mexicans?” The foreman told the workers to do what the military said and no one would get hurt.
While trapped there, my mother observed the whole situation. On one of the two days trapped there, she met an unusual person. While sitting waiting for the occupation to be over, a person wearing a large blanket approached her from behind. In a bizarre mechanical voice, the strange individual asked her ”Are they looking for me?” She turned to see a mechanical face under the blanket. There appeared to be lips moving but there was a delay of sound coming from them. She realize it was not human and told it “Yes!” She told it to keep away from the military and look for a chance to escape.
There is a happy ending to this story. When the Army was still there cleaning up, the hobos found the surviving crew member. They put a hooded coat on it and other clothes to totally cover it up. They poured booze over it to make it smell like a drunk and helped it since it had trouble walking. When the bus came to pick up a batch of workers, the workers carried it onto the bus. It suddenly spoke with it’s mechanical voice, “Are they still looking for me?” They told it to shut up and get on the bus. The family left the next day. Those who took the alien were never seen again. T-Bear
The UK Ministry of Defence began a campaign in 2008 to release all of their UFO files, a process which supposedly had come to an end in June, 2013. However, in a response to a letter inquiring about specific UFO files, the MOD says it is treating the letter as a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request, and as such has found the documents in question and will be releasing them. The FOI response says the files are being prepared to be released to The National Archives (TNA) of the UK, a process which may take 9 months.
ADVERTISEMENT
The FOI response was released on September 19 as part of a weekly posting on the Ministry of Defence website listing FOI responses of the week. The document is titled, “Whether documents titled ‘UFO policy’ and 3 other documents still exist and if so are they still ‘classified’.”
Only an excerpt of the original letter to the MOD is included, and states the request as:
whether documents covering the period 1971-76 and 1996-2000 titled ‘UFO policy’ and three other documents covering the periods June-Dec 2000, Dec 2000-Mar 2004 and March 2004 exist, and if so are they still ‘classified’.
The FOI response outlines that the documents were found and that they will be released to the TNA, making them available in about 9 months. The document also includes a table of the 18 documents to be released. They include several documents titled “Air Traffic Control Low Flying UFOs,” several others titled “ADGE UFO Reports.” and then, among others, the specific files requested.

The name of the person who made the request is redacted, so it is unknown who or why the request was made. Or perhaps more importantly, how the requester knew to ask for these particular files.
Of even more concern to UFO researchers is why these files were not included with the UFO files already released. If a simple FOIA request results in the discovery of more UFO files, it begs the question, how many more files does the MOD have? Furthermore, this demonstrates that the MOD was either mistaken or dishonest when they claimed to have already released all of their UFO files.
Nick Pope, former UFO investigator for the MOD, told the Daily Star, “This is a huge embarrassment for the MoD and will have UFO enthusiasts up in arms.”
Pope continued, “When the government said that all its UFO files had been released, conspiracy theorists didn’t believe everything had been made public and it turns out they were right.”
As for the files themselves, Pope says, “The 18 files include ones from RAF radar specialists and from the ultra-secretive Defence Intelligence Staff, so there may be some fascinating revelations still to come.”
Ghost in tree is scaring children away from school
After six students fell unconscious within a short time one day, triggering rumours of a ghost taking up residence in a tree next to a school building in south-western Bangladesh, children stopped attending classes, prompting the villagers of Hazipur in modern-day Patuakhali to decide to call in a witch doctor to chase the evil spirit away and set things right. The six say they have been visited by the demon, or “Ramayan” as is its name, who wants the 25-year-old hog plum tree to be chopped down and each to sacrifice a goat and distribute the meat among the locals to appease it. Doctors at Kalapara Upazila Health Complex who treated the six on the day of the fainting outbreak, term it a case of “mass hysteria”, that is manifestations of anxiety and hyperventilation.
News of one student becoming unconscious sparked off the outbreak, prompting others to feel malaise but for only a few hours. The phenomenon has nothing to do with the children’s nutrition intake, they added, for they were healthy. “They need counselling and guardians and teachers can play a vital role in this matter,” stated Medical Officer Md Aminul Islam. This seems all too apparent for Laboni Baiddhya, the only Hindu of the group’s five girls and single boy and the first to have gone unconscious. She and the others, all of whom are classmates except for two who are two years junior to her and studying in class six, were treated for six days at Barisal Sher-e-Bangla Medical College Hospital. But like the others she did not return to school.
Her father Hebol Baiddhya says she has been “acting weird”, scolding and sometimes becoming aggressive when approached. On September 15 she had, though for a short period, lost consciousness again. The situation is worse for Rojina, one of the two younger ones. Lying in bed most of the time, she has a blank look in her eyes, cries out in sudden fits and attacks people at random, said her mother Amena Begum. She stopped talking some days ago. Using a pen and paper, Rojina explained to this correspondent what “Ramayan” wanted. Students, in this case all of the school’s 303, abstaining from classes is not what the 60-year-old Hazipur High School ever experienced, said 80-year-old shopkeeper Md Nur Islam.
The issue prompted a meeting to be called at the school on September 17, the day no students turned up, where some 500 villagers and the school authorities were present. A three-member committee comprising headmasters of the high school and an adjoining primary school and the high school managing committee’s chairman has been formed to bring in Babul Huzur, the “spiritual healer” to use charms and chant incantations to exorcise the ghost. “We are trying our best to overcome the situation,” said the high school’s headmaster Shah Jalal Munshi, apparently not convinced that it is the works of an evil spirit. He is worried over the Junior School Certificate and annual exams coming up in less than two months’ time. Though puzzled, he has his suspicions and so waits till new evidence comes to light and unravels this mystery. – The Daily Star
The UK government is set to release another set of declassified documents relating to the topic of UFOs.
The news follows previous assurances by the Ministry of Defence that all files pertaining to the phenomenon had already been released to the public following Freedom of Information requests.
This latest archive is set to be released by the end of the year and will be publically accessible by September 2015.
Former MoD UFO investigator Nick Pope has spoken out about the blunder and about what secrets the new documents might reveal.
“This is a huge embarrassment for the MoD and will have UFO enthusiasts up in arms,” he said. “When the government said that all its UFO files had been released, conspiracy theorists didn’t believe everything had been made public and it turns out they were right.”
“The 18 files include ones from RAF radar specialists and from the ultra-secretive Defence Intelligence Staff, so there may be some fascinating revelations still to come.” Read more at Daily Star

The creators of a UFO hoax who set social media buzzing have come clean.
Several images of an unidentified object hovering over Portsmouth did the rounds last week, sparking speculation that the city could be the landing site of an invasion of green-skinned aliens.
But the explanation for the flying saucer has turned out to be not quite so dramatic.
The photos were faked in a publicity stunt to draw attention to an upcoming science fiction and fantasy festival.
Event organiser Joshua Hibberd, 26, North End, said: ‘We got eight or 10 people from around Portsmouth to take a picture at the same time on the same evening.
‘I e-mailed them to another organiser, Dan Cook, who is a whizz with Photoshop.
‘He added the UFO, and we had help from others to get people talking about it on social media.’
Mr Hibberd said he was bowled over by the international stir the stunt had created after The News reported the UFO sighting.
He said: ‘It’s amazing how people’s imaginations have been taken by this.
‘We really didn’t expect it go as big as it has.
‘We’ve found websites with people talking about it in Canada, India, Singapore, all over.’
‘We wanted it to be Portsmouth-wide, but we didn’t expect it to be worldwide.’
Mr Hibberd dreamt up the hoax as a cheap way of spreading the word about the SciFi and Fantasy Weekend, which will take place on Saturday and Sunday at Action Stations in the Historic Dockyard.
He said: ‘As we’re on a fairly low budget, this was the best way I could think of getting the event put on the map without spending lots of money.’
Mr Hibberd, who studied television and film at university, said science fiction and fantasy had such broad appeal he expected the festival to draw a lot of visitors.
He said: ‘It’s been kind of a geek’s paradise organising an event like this.’
The festival will include an exhibition of replica props from the Back to the Future films including the famous DeLorean time machine.
There will also be a Tardis, themed laser quest, stalls selling comic books and film merchandise and a screening of Guardians of the Galaxy. – Portmouth
Here’s the First Look at the New Satanic Monument Being Built for Oklahoma’s Statehouse
In January the Satanic Temple announced plans to erect a monument glorifying the Dark Lord on the front lawn of the Oklahoma Statehouse. An Indiegogo campaign was launched with what seemed like a somewhat lofty goal of $20,000, but by the time donations ended almost $30,000 had been raised. Now an artist trained in classical sculpture is toiling away in New York, crafting a Baphomet figure sitting beneath an inverted pentagram and flanked by two children gazing upward in loyalty. When it is finished, it will be cast in bronze and, the Satanists hope, eventually displayed in Oklahoma.
The statue is a direct response to the state’s installation of a Ten Commandments monument outside the Capitol in 2012. State Representative Mike Ritze paid for the controversial statue with his own money, and therefore it was considered a donation and OK to place on government property. Following that line of reasoning, the Satanic Temple submitted a formal application for their monument.
As Trait Thompson of the Oklahoma Capitol Preservation Commission told CNN last December, “Individuals and groups are free to apply to place a monument or statue or artwork.” The applications are then approved or rejected by the Commission. Unfortunately, the state has placed a halt on issuing permits for any other monuments until a lawsuit filed by the ACLU against Ritze’s Commandments monument is settled. Read more at Vice
The UK’s most famous and compelling UFO incident is being commemorated by the UK Forestry Commission. A large metal sculpture depicting one of the UFOs as described by a witness has been built and will be installed in the location of the sightings in the Rendlesham forest.

The Forestry Commission wants to make it clear that although they are commemorating the incident, they are not trying to take sides on the debate surrounding the existence of UFOs or extraterrestrial visitation. According to the BBC, “The commission said the sculpture was ‘impartial’ and did not seek to answer the mystery.”
However, the commission acknowledges that something took place. The recreation manager at Rendlesham forest, Nigel Turner, told the BBC, “Clearly something happened – there’s a party who believe it was something military, there are people who believe it was extraterrestrial activity and we respect all opinions.”

The incident is often referred to as the UK’s Roswell. In fact, Nick Pope, who investigated UFO for the UK Ministry of Defence (MOD), often says it might be a better case then Roswell. Mostly because there are several military witnesses who readily speak about their encounters.
The incident took place over several days in late December, 1980. Although exact dates have been disputed, according to the witnesses, it is likely the event began very late on December 25. The Rendlsham forest is flanked by two Royal Air Force (RAF) bases, RAF Bentwaters and RAF Woodbridge. At the time, both were on lease to the United States Air Force.
Personnel from both bases reported seeing UFOs the night of the 25th into the early morning of the 26th. A few men were sent to investigate and came across a glowing light. Security officer Jim Penniston approached the object and described seeing a black triangular object hovering just off the forest floor. He described seeing strange symbols and actually touched the craft. After a few moments, the object raised up slowly into the sky. Once it cleared the trees, it shot off at a great speed. You can hear more about the sighting in this interview with Penniston on Open Minds UFO Radio.
Penniston drew a sketch of the object and it is apparently these sketches that the Forest Commission sculpture is based off of.

The Rendlesham incident didn’t end there. A couple days later, the lights returned. Skeptical Deputy Base Commander Charles Halt took a few men out in the forest to investigate. His goal was to show that the whole UFO scare was a misunderstanding and most likely something mundane. Instead, Halt and his men saw lights they could not explain. Halt says he saw a bright glowing object aim a beam of light at the munitions area of one of the bases. Halt was baffled, and now says he thinks what they saw were extraterrestrial spacecraft.

This is just a summary of the events that took place in the Rendlesham forest. There are other witnesses with other claims. One man says the U.S. government met with extraterrestrials in the Rensdlesham forest soon after. This witness, Larry Warren, spoke to the tabloid newspaper News of the World about the sightings in 1983. This was the first time the public heard of the incident.
In 2001, the MOD released a memo Halt had written to the MOD briefing them on the sightings. The UK government took no real action. Admiral of the Fleet Peter John Hill-Norton, former head of NATO and UK Chief of the Defence Staff, was disturbed by the UK’s inaction on the matter. In an inquiry, he was told that the MOD felt the incident was of “no Defence interest.”
He replied that there was evidence, “now in the public domain which makes it beyond any possible doubt that the incident most certainly was of considerable Defence interest, and it is absurd of you to pretend otherwise.”
In 2005, the Forestry Commission opened a “UFO Trail” in the Rendlesham forest that leads to the spot the UFO was seen by Penniston. Until now, the sight had been marked with three logs. Now it will be marked with the life-sized sculpture of the UFO.
Turner says, “We think it will fit in well, because it offers a goal for people completing the trail and also give an insight into our timber-growing and conservation work.”

The sculpture was created by artist Olivia English and includes alien appearing symbols on the side. However, English says these do not depict an extraterrestrial alphabet. She says, “The symbols on the side of the UFO were originally part of the trail, but we’ve recycled them to add another dimension. There’s no secret code – it’s art.”
Several Latin American nations experienced a substantial increase of humanoid sighting at the turn of the millennium. Mexico was starting to see increased reports of ‘flying humanoids’. Brazil residents consistently reported UFOs and odd creatures that these craft transported. In Argentina, witnesses described several strange human-like creatures that varied in size and appearance.
In the following post, I will again concentrate on Chile and the overwhelming number of humanoid/mothman/hominid encounters reported throughout 1999-2001. Much of this information was provided by Humanoid Sighting Reports & Journal of Humanoid Studies:
Las Cascadas, Chile – March 2000 – night
For several nights in a row witnesses at a local residence spotted large red blinking lights land on a nearby field. Soon after tall man like figures, bald headed, wearing white tunics and dark goggles approach the house and look inside, and they then ran back to the field without making any noise. Their bodies appear to emit electric discharges as they move.
Laguna Redonda, Concepcion, Chile – May 3, 2000 – 1:30am
The barking of five stray puppies shed had picked up some time earlier suddenly awakened Professor Liliana Romero Castillo. The puppies were living in the courtyard with her fierce mastiff. She looked through the window to see the back of what appeared to be an immense man, standing more than 6-feet 8 inches tall. The shoulder blades were split, as if he had wings. He appeared to be hunched over as if choking somebody. After attempting to wake up her husband without success, she looked out the window again but the tall winged creature was gone. The next day some of the children found a dead dog in the alleyway. It appeared to have puncture marks on the throat area.
37-year old Evelyn Esbry woke up early in the morning in order to use the toilet facilities located outside in the terrace. On her way there she heard sounds coming from the patio area. Suddenly an entity jumped on her back, paralyzed with fear she turned around to see a bizarre hairy creature, with a large nozzle, about 4-feet tall, and with large luminous orange, oval shaped eyes. Terrified, Evelyn fainted and did not see the creature depart. She suffered from shock and was treated at the local hospital for deep scratches. The victim told local paramedics that the creature seemed to communicate with her, using telepathy telling her not to scream.
Upon hearing the frenetic barking of his dogs, security guard (involved in a previous encounter) Luis Alberto Calivar armed himself with a flashlight and a knife and went outside to investigate, as he did the dogs suddenly became very still. Soon his lights illuminated a dark greenish form that ran very quickly climbing up a Wasintonia palm. As he shone the flashlight at the figure he felt his arm become “cold” and the knife and watch dropped out of his hand, at the same time the dogs stood very quiet and still. A feeling of numbness overcame his body and he ran back inside his security shack, he was followed by the dogs that hid under the room and began to shake in fear. He could only describe the creature as having large flopping ears, fluid in nature, apparently without a bone structure (!), it gave the appearance of being a flexible mass that moved around like a Kangaroo. It moved silently and was about 1.30m in height. When he first spotted the creature it seemed to have been crouching down, behind a bush. It seemed to twist its body around and never looked straight at the witness, which never dropped his flashlight. Incredibly despite the reactions the witness felt no fear and did not notice any odors coming from the creature. The encounter lasted about 5 minutes and the creature was about 9 meters away from the witness. He further described the creature as having greenish hairs about 5 to 6cm in length. Soon after the encounter Calivar had too see a doctor and lost about 20 pounds.
Villa Nonguen, Concepcion, Chile – June 7, 2000 – 4:00am
Julio Reyes and wife Carmen Andrade were awaken by noises coming from the backyard, which contained a hen house and a garden. Looking out they saw bizarre humanoid flapping a pair of large wings. The creature was described as white in color. It ran towards the rear of the house. The guard dog refused to follow it out. Several hens were found dead and strange footprints were also located.
Tocopilla, Chile – June 18, 2000 – midnight *(more detail below) – A group of young people was on the beach sitting by a bonfire. Suddenly, a large creature came out of the water. They were all astonished as they saw the strange being getting closer. The creature approached one of them making several guttural sounds, as if was trying to communicate with the young man. Moments later, it placed its right hand on the young man’s left shoulder, leaving a green stain on his sweater, which they described as the same color as marine algae. The Bigfoot-like creature soon left, as it got back in the water and disappeared in the dark. The eyewitnesses, whom they preferred to remain anonymous, described the creature as 8 feet tall, with long dark furry hair, long arms with hands below the knees, big round eyes, with a long nose and mouth shaped like an animal muzzle.
Several witnesses including investigator Jaime Ferrer were leaving a local restaurant through the back door when they all saw a strange looking bird-like creature in the sky. It was flying at an altitude of about 40 meters directly above the group. It was gray in color and it passed by so rapidly that they did not have time to take a photograph of it. Its body was shape like a duck, but it was at least five times bigger. It had a long neck and the strangest thing about it was that if it would have been compared to an ordinary bird, this one had a much larger body in relation to its wings. Nevertheless, it seemed to fly like an ordinary bird; it glided smoothly and it flapped its wings every so often to gain momentum.

A woman and her friend, a professor had just left the Lions Club dinner and was driving south of the city when they spotted “two strange yellow lights” on the road ahead. The driver flashed her high beams at the two intense yellow lights a short distance away. The witnesses began to slow down since the “yellow light” remained stationary. They then saw a figure standing about three feet away from their front bumper. The figure was described as large, lacking ears, covered with extremely long gray hair, particularly around the neck, with two immense slanted yellow eyes. The driver and the creature exchanged looks for about 10 seconds, after which the car drove along the left lane. The creature followed the vehicle’s departure with its head, and was apparently capable of making 180-degree turns. Terrified the witnesses drove away, seeing the yellow light again as it lit up the entire road before disappearing.
Felipe an employee at a local disco reported that one night there was a loud pounding on the outside door, in the back of the building. Thinking that it was a robbery attempt, he armed himself with a club, opened the door, and was confronted by an upright four-foot tall creature with glowing yellow eyes. The creature breathed out a strong substance, which stunned Felipe, who then saw the being silently glide away. Around the same time other local residents reported seeing metallic bell shaped craft flying over the area.
Sierra Gorda, Calama, Chile – October 2000 – 5:00pm
Three men standing at the front gate of the Mina El Tesoro spotted what appeared to be a pair of glowing eyes at about 30 meters away. They noticed 3 forms, one large and two small, about 1 meter in height. They were somewhat simian in appearance and bounded away towards the nearby ridge. The same guards had seen similar creatures back in May.
Artidoro Inostroza Seguel was watching television with his wife and son when he briefly stepped out to the porch for a breath of fresh air. He saw about 50 meters away an approaching yellow-reddish light. He then noticed that it was a humanoid figure that was apparently carrying the light. The figure wore a dark divers suit, with a hood. On the chest area it had a white-gray stripe that glowed. The humanoid approached to within 8 meters from the witness, who noticed that it was about 2 meters in height. The guard dog did not show any reaction at all. The witness walked back inside the house. Later his wife saw strange lights from the kitchen window area; Artidoro then fired several warning shots at the lights.
During a period of heavy UFO activity in the area, Maria Concha Rivas and her husband reported seeing a giant humanoid figure, reddish in color and about 10-feet tall standing by a nearby river. Frightened they did not stick around and went back inside the house. They did not see the humanoid depart. Source: UFO Roundup December 2000
Colonia Lolenco, Chile – December 8, 2000 – 2:50am
Retired civil guard Luis Arturo Bayer Garcia, 52 year of age was riding his motorcycle along an isolated area when he saw standing on the side of the road a tall, thin, figure, almost 2 meters in height. He was not able to see any facial features, only a gray-yellow texture. It seemed to be wearing a two-piece outfit and was totally motionless. The witness accelerated away from the area at high speed.
George Calderon and several friends were at a local camping ground and were preparing a barbecue dinner when they noticed on a nearby field a group of white tunic clad figures, including what appeared to be children, gathering under the moonlight. At this point the air became filled with bell like sounds and a huge luminous red round object descended over the white clad figures, which appeared to be holding their hands and chanting in an unknown language. It seemed to the witness that every time the bell sound was heard the object descended lower over the group. A little frightened the witnesses retired back into their tents and went to sleep. The next day, they checked the area directly below where the object was seen to hover and they found a large circular imprint on the ground and within that, four smaller circles.
At the local scenic lookout of Las Pinas, five persons saw three two-meter tall figures of humanoid appearance and with red lights on their hands. The beings were standing behind some vegetation, and appeared to be talking among themselves. They suddenly turned around and disappeared. Around the same time 20 other witnesses saw two huge balls of light roaming over the hills before vanishing from sight.
In a farm a man heard his fierce bloodhound barking, stepping out he saw a tall figure approach. The figure appeared to be wearing a hood. The witness attempted to approach the figure but at this point his dog let out a loud yelp and hid. At this point the tall figure also disappeared. He described as about 1.90 meters in height, with a flat yellowish face, robotic in appearance.
Freddy Villalobos, his cousin Christopher Huanca Valenzuela and a group of friends had just finished a soccer match in a nearby field, when they saw a strange bird. It was about 70 cm in length. It landed on top of a public light pole. The light fixture dimmed as the creature landed on it; it was to a point where it was almost completely out. The witnesses were able to see that it had round reddish yellow eyes. The creature emitted short squeaking sounds. One of the witnesses turned on the truck headlights in order to obtain a better look and the bird reacted immediately, covering its head with its wings, as the light apparently bothered it. It seemed to be floating on top of the light fixture rather than having its feet on top of it. Suddenly, it opened up its wings for a brief moment and they saw its head; they described it as horrible. It resembled the head of an old man with a long nose and a triangular shaped mouth. Scared, the kids began throwing rocks at it. It shortly flew away and disappeared.
The director of a local school noticed a group of children starting at a nearby tree. All were silent and were not moving a muscle and appeared to be fascinated by something. As he approached the group he noticed a bizarre bird-like creature, about 1.80 meters in height that was flying slowly around the tree at about 4 meters from the ground. This “bird” was totally black in color and somewhat resembled a Great Dane dog with wings. It seemed to move in slow motion, and would briefly hide inside the tree branches and then exit again. The director obtained a flashlight from his office and illuminated the creature that seemed to resent the light. It had large bright white eyes. After a few minutes it seemed to disappear in plain sight.
On the day following his encounter with a bizarre creature, a local farmer saw three strange looking but very well dressed men that showed up as he spoke to a friend who had also seen the creature. They stood some 30 meters away from a group of acquaintances who were busy sharing a side of flame-roasted beef. They approached the farmer and informed him that they were police officers and were going to arrest him. Surprised he asked why, since he had not done anything wrong. They told him he could not discuss what he saw the day before with anybody. He asked the strangers to show some badges but they refused. He described the men as being almost 2 meters tall, very thin and closely resembling one another, especially in their bearing and constitution. They wore sunglasses that concealed their eyes. One of them had eyes that reminded the witness of “Spiderman.” They always kept their left hands in their pockets. They surveyed the entire area, and never once did they call out to one another. All three wore a type of glove, which left their ring and smallest fingers exposed, with the rest of the fingers occupying a single space. Their shirt cuffs covered part of this “pseudo-mitten” over which they wore a thin, shiny metal bracelet. He also described a ‘prosthetic” covering the nail of the smallest finger, and a ring placed at the tip of the ring finger. Their Spanish was very strange, sloppy as if they were drunk. They spoke a language among themselves that the farmer was unable to understand, he was sure that it was not English. After they left the witnesses realized that the men had not moved their mouths to speak. The farmer further noticed that the group leader wore a hat “similar to a bullfighter’s” which barely covered one of his ears, in which he could see a “V” shaped cut and a darker shade of color. He also recalled the following details: a very sharp vocal tone, short blond hair, broad forehead, high cheekbones, straight nose, thin neck, small mouth (except for the leader, who had thick lips and was wearing a safari-type jacket), a mechanized walk, similar gestures, line eyebrows, black ties and tie clips the same color as the stones on their rings. One of the men engaged in roasting the side of beef remarked: “They approached us at one point and looked us up and down, but said nothing at all. They appeared to walk and spin on the tips of their feet. They gave the impression of weighing less than a normal person.” They did not accept any water from the witnesses and threatened the farmer once again. They boarded an ivory-lead colored pickup truck which made no noise whatsoever and vanished after a certain distance.
Mr. Oscar Solar Valdebenito, married, a sergeant with the Carabineros, was performing his duties as a security guard in the Preventive Custody Center of the city of Angol on Friday, April 28 2000. The facility was under construction at the time.
Mr. Solar was alone and was making his rounds of the construction site’s interior. Once he returned to the guard shack on the southern side, using a passageway located in the back, he noticed the presence of an “animal” standing 1.20 meters tall, average complexion, with a small head in proportion to the rest of its body. The creature sat on top of a metal pole ending in four luminaries, standing some 8 meters tall. The animal landed at the very same time that the watchman turned his attention to the site. Solar was able to see the lights go out and the pole shake as a result of the creature’s descent. The estimated weight of this strange being was some 40 to 50 kilograms (according to the eyewitness). Its head featured two medium-sized ears, sideways and pointing upward, with rounded tips, pricked up like those of a police dog. Two long wings with pointed ends emerged from its shoulders. It never folded its wings, keeping them unfurled “like a vulture under the sun” (eyewitness’s description). He saw no feathers, only a kind of velvety skin, dark grey or black in color. He was unable to make out the face. The wings extended to the creature’s lower body, where he could also see two legs. A pair of stubby arms could also be seen under the head.
The witness was accompanied by four dogs, a beige bitch in the lead. Apparently, the “winged animal” pounced on the dogs, but these took off running and howling in a southward direction, abandoning the construction site. Five or six youths coming down from the north along the train tracks that go beside the site, also took off running when they saw what was going on. The witness explained that he was standing some 30 meters from the pole. He didn’t manage to move or turn on his flashlight, such was the degree of fright and surprise inspired by the situation described. He recalls having heard a sharp, loud squawk as the “animal” landed on the pole. Judging by the tone of this squawk, it was reminiscent of a loudspeaker’s crackle.
The “animal” eventually landed on the ground after making a flight in a gentle curve. It landed on a conical pile of dirt. After the dogs took off, it flew off with two gentle flaps of its wings, flying over a 3 meter wall, above which five wires are suspended, providing light to another streetlamp on the corner. The creature never came close to touching them. The animal came within 10 meters of the witness’s position. Its descent to the ground left prints on the mound of dirt – the witness managed to see “three thin holes” and fenced them off, but they were erased and destroyed on the next day at the order of the construction supervisors.
Personnel from Carabineros (state police) reported to the scene the next day, along with the Servicio de Investigaciones (civil police) who displayed their annoyance with the construction supervisor for having erased the prints, despite having been informed of the situation.
Further details:
The witness confesses that when “the animal” was close to him, flying off with a gentle beat of its wings, he was unable to control a bowel movement, a fact that he has tried to keep confidential on account of the customary jokes that tend to emerge in such cases.
The young men who were walking along the train tracks were never located, although efforts are under way, and Radio Los Confines apparently succeeded in this endeavor. But this rumor has not been confirmed. –

For the first time, this latest case alerted us about the possibilities that the Bigfoot might have some kind of connection with Chupacabras phenomenon, given that northern Chile, for the most part, is well known for its Chupacabras sightings. This was something that never would have occurred to us before.
A strange coincidence is that so many elements in both the Islamorada and the Tocopilla cases are almost identical; both creatures were seen leaving and entering the sea. This makes us think that they might hide under the sea, lakes or swamps. Both creatures left footprints the size of a football and other similar traces behind. Nevertheless, they have never been photographed, and in spite of countless efforts, they have never been captured. Furthermore, no one has ever found any remains of these creatures.
There are many reports of ufos entering and leaving the sea, both in Florida and in Chile. During an interview for Teletrece, a national Chilean television network, dated October 21 of 2001, Jorge Martinez, a retired Admiral and former Chilean Chief of Naval Operations, admitted that he personally had witnessed two ufo sightings at sea. During one of them, a nearby ufo caused interference with the navigation systems and the ship’s radar. It is widely known that many other naval officers have seen similar objects, which they call “UUOs”, (Unidentified Underwater Objects). According to the former Chilean Navy Chief, this phenomenon is real.
A taxi driver, who we call Carlos, and happens to be a friend of Jaime Ferrer, our associate in Calama, Chile, has told us that during a trip to Tocopilla, he and some customers saw several low-flying ufos coming from the sea towards the nearby Atacama Desert, where later, tracks made by some kind of landing gear, as well as Chupacabras tracks were found. The tracks appeared to be coming from the exact spot where the ufo landed.
Coincidently, just like the Chupacabras and ufo tracks in Chile, there have been reports of ufos in the same areas where Bigfoot creatures have been seen. Although we have not been able to establish a possible Bigfoot-UFO connection in the United States, we can look at the cases reported near Mount Rainier, in the State of Washington, where Kenneth Arnold observed nine ufos in 1947 giving popularity to the “flying saucer phenomena”. Yet, in the same area, there have been countless Bigfoot or Sasquatch sightings dating back to the XIX century.
On the other hand, in light of the evidence found in Chile, we can now affirm that the Chupacabras is part of the ufo phenomenon. We have not found evidence that it is part of some kind of terrestrial genetic experiment, nor do we believe that it is an ordinary animal. The evidence points out to a ufo related origin; I don’t have slightest doubt about it.
All this is creating a new chapter in the investigation of the ufo phenomenon that undoubtedly, many will find difficult to accept. But this is very typical. For example, the abduction phenomenon took more than 20 years before ufologists accepted it as part of the ufo investigative field. Even today, many still doubt that alien abductions take place.
It is not my intention to try to convince anyone that the Bigfoot and the Chupacabras phenomena are the same; instead, like many other strange creatures, these may have a possible relation with ufos. It is not a coincidence that we receive reports mentioning a Bigfoot creature in Tocopilla, Chile, followed by numerous Chupacabras and ufo sightings, in what we could call the Chilean 2000-2001 wave.
We are facing a presence of intelligent or programmed creatures that have appeared sporadically and have been associated with other phenomena for more than a century, to whom erroneously, we have given them different names. To finally understand what is really behind all of these creatures, we have to study their characteristics, their behavior, and most importantly, the other associated phenomena that are often reported when these cases take place. We should know and learn about these phenomena, not only for their physical aspect of these creatures, but for their intentions, and most importantly, for their actions and their reactions.
We are buried in some kind of game where our intelligence faces another intelligence, which happens to be strange or, to say the least, different than ours, where the apparently incompatible logic doesn’t seem to work, let alone our intuition. Accumulating data from field investigations is all we can do at this point in time. But, will we finally ever know the essence of these phenomena?
We still don’t hold the truth in our hands, but we are looking for it. – www.rense.com
An unusual bent contrail was seen in the sky above Southsea, Hampshire in England at approximately 7:20 a.m. on Monday, September 22.
Florence Lehmann, a local teacher, noticed the peculiar contrail and photographed it. “It’s really weird,” she explains. “It looks like the pilot sneezed or fell asleep.” She continues, “Somebody said a UFO had been spotted recently in the area and the pilot had tried to avoid it, which I quite like the sound of.”

Although wind can eventually distort a plane’s contrail, there was reportedly no wind that morning, and witnesses claim the plane physically changed its flight path.
According to the Independent, Local air traffic control company NATS doesn’t know why the plane suddenly changed its direction. “Unfortunately NATS has no knowledge of the purpose of any given flight and we do not identify individual aircraft to members of the public,” explains an air traffic control spokesperson.
It is unclear if witnesses actually observed a UFO and/or if witnesses saw the plane as it swerved. Those details aside, there is no official explanation for why the plane over Southsea suddenly altered its course.
(N.Morgan)Of all of the sightings we’ve seen lately, this one is by far one of the most odd and dazzling. Above the skies of Houston Texas, people were treated to the sight of a strange UFO presence. Again, one has to ponder what is going on with all of these sightings and the boldness being displayed, during the sightings.
A brief history of UFOs: An unidentified flying object, or UFO, in its most general definition, is any apparent anomaly in the sky that is not identifiable as a known object or phenomenon. Such anomalies may later be identified, but depending on the evidence or lack of evidence, such an identification may not be possible generally leaving the anomaly unexplained. While stories of unexplained apparitions have been told since antiquity, the term “UFO” (or “UFOB”) was officially created in 1953 by the United States Air Force (USAF) to serve as a catch-all for all such reports. It was stated that a “UFOB” was “any airborne object which by performance, aerodynamic characteristics, or unusual features, does not conform to any presently known aircraft or missile type, or which cannot be positively identified as a familiar object.
As originally defined, the term was restricted to those fraction of cases which remained unidentified after investigation, with USAF interest being for potential national security reasons and/or “technical aspects.” (See Air Force Regulation 200-2.) During the late 1940s and through the 1950s, UFOs were often referred to popularly as “flying saucers” or “flying discs”. The term UFO became more widespread during the 1950s, at first in technical literature, but later in popular use. UFOs garnered considerable interest during the Cold War, an era associated with a heightened concern for national security.
Various studies have concluded that the phenomenon does not represent a threat to national security nor does it contain anything worthy of scientific pursuit (e.g., 1953 CIARobertson Panel, USAF Project Blue Book, Condon Committee). Culturally, the phenomenon has often been associated with extraterrestrial life or government-related conspiracy theories, and has become a popular theme in fiction.
You can sense the urgency of this person as the phenomena continues to be on-going... they say a month now. These pictures are from the latest MUFON reports of an event Sept. 5th - looks a bit like the sky symbol phenomena and what is being seen in places like Missouri. ----------------------------------------------------------
This will be my second report. I have been observing these objects this month and also during the month of august. I hope this report will be taken more seriously. These objects can be seen most nights. Unless it is stormy or too cloudy. Using 7 x35mm wide angle 9.5 degree binoculars to look at These objects. On this night they moved lower and close enough that i was able to photograph them with my cell phone. They made no noise. They hover for long periods of time moving in an pendulum, zigzag, anda sort of figure 8 pattern. Then they will move closer or further away.periodically in the manner i mentioned above.they also emmit balls of light. They are ejected at very fast speed. These object at times then emit a flash of light simular to a flash grenade. There is a farm across the street. If the orbs are ejected over the farm the cows sound like they are screaming. These craft also change their attitude. One night there were at least15 - 20 of them in a circle several miles in diameter. And they were all flashing their lights like a strobe light On the 6th of september at about 3:30am i sat up in bed to close the window. And there was a round obe across the street above the neighbors back yard. It dropped straight down from several hdred feet to behind the trees i think it landed somewhere behind the neighbors in the woods or a field. It decended so quickly i didnt have time to photograph it. And to tell the truth it kinda rattled me a bitto see it that close There have been several reports of ufos in the tri-state area. Several of them being in ohio. One in salem ohio just this week. And there was an incident in Pa that was seen by not only rhe wittness. But several police as well.the objects are hard to describe. I think i will let the photos speak for themselves .
Interest in the Black Knight grows higher each year, in 1957, an unknown “object” was seen “shadowing” the Sputnik 1 Spacecraft. According to reports, the “unidentified object” was in Polar orbit, at that time The United Stated nor the Russians possessed the technology to maintain a spacecraft in Polar Orbit. According to our research the first Polar orbiting satellite was launched in 1960. Polar orbits are often used for earth-mapping, earth observation, capturing the earth as time passes from one point and reconnaissance satellites. This would put the Black Knight in the category of a observational Satellite, the only question here is, who placed The Black Knight in a polar orbit and for what purpose?
The Object continued to amaze Astronomers World Wide. In the 1960′s the Black Knight was located once again in Polar Orbit. Astronomers and Scientists calculated the objects weight to be over 10 tons which would be at that time the Heaviest Artificial Satellite to orbit our Planet. The Black Knight’s orbit was unlike any other object orbiting Earth, as it was moving twice as fast when compared to any other man-made Spacecrafts.
There are also several reports that the Grumman Aircraft Corporation gave much importance to this mysterious “Satellite”, On September 3, 1960, seven months after the satellite was first detected by radar, a tracking camera at Grumman Aircraft Corporation’s Long Island factory took a photograph of the Black Knight. At that point people all over the world started identifying the object in the sky, which could be seen as a red light moving at higher speed compared to other satellites in a East to West orbit. The Grumman Aircraft Corporation formed a committee to study the data received from the observations made but nothing was made public.
In 1963, Gordon Cooper was launched into space. On his final orbit, he reported seeing a glowing green object in front of his capsule in the distance moving towards his Spacecraft. The Muchea tracking station, in Australia, which Cooper reported the object to, picked up this Unidentified object on Radar travelling East to West. NBC reported this but after Cooper returned to Earth, the Reporter were not allowed to ask Cooper about the unidentified object. The official explanation given to Coopers sighting were “high levels of carbon dioxide, which caused hallucinations”.
The Black Knight has been a topic of interest all around the world. Until today most of the “official” information on the mysterious object is kept safe and away from society. No one has answered some of the most simple and logical questions to ask, who placed that “satellite” in Polar orbit? To what purpose?
Is the Black Knight an Extraterrestrial satellite sent to Earth to study the Human race? Did the Satellite attempt to communicate with the human race? Have we ignored attempted communications? One thing is for sure, The Black Knight remains as one of the most mysterious objects to orbit our planet. Is there a connection between this (in)famous space object and ancient mankind’s achievements?
The earliest depictions of ancient aliens and UFOs are those carved on a mountain in Hunan, China. They are said to be dated 47,000 years old, which puts them in the time span of the Neanderthal man, predating Homo-sapiens. These paintings seem to suggest early encounters with unknown beings and, perhaps, visitations from extraterrestrials.
The further back you go in time, the harder these art pieces become to interpret. Extraterrestrial depictions in paintings are an incredibly controversial topic among scientists and ancient alien theorists. The scientific community is overwhelmingly skeptical about the subject, but their theories are often no less far fetched and are often backed up by evidence that is just as anecdotal.
Despite scientific skepticism, the annals of art history contain many curious examples of mysterious objects being sighted in the sky. Are these ancient artifacts trying to tell us something? What do these paintings tell us about the origins of humanity? And do they suggest a massive missing link in the history of the human story?
The ancient alien theory, sometimes known as the study of ‘ancient astronauts’, has been written on by a variety of fringe thinkers, including David Icke, Zecharia Sitchen, and Erich Von Daniken. They believe extraterrestrials visited the Earth thousands of years ago, sharing their expertise with early civilizations and forever changing the course of human history.
They believe this for two primary reasons: “the first is ancient religious texts in which humans witness and interact with gods or other heavenly beings who descend from the sky—sometimes in vehicles resembling spaceships—and possess spectacular powers. The second is physical specimens such as artwork depicting alien-like figures and ancient architectural marvels like Stonehenge and the pyramids of Egypt.” The Pyramid of the Sun at Mexico’s Teotihuacan for instance, lies at the center of complex pyramids, each aligned with the planets and stars.
What do you think primitive man was trying to depict in these ancient cave paintings?
QUESTION. C'est un enquêteur cosmique qui est arrivé sur Mars. Le vaisseau spatial américain Maven (pour Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN) a pour mission de résoudre une énigme : pourquoi une grande partie de l'atmosphère de la planète Rouge a-t-elle disparu dans un lointain passé ? De quoi comprendre un peu mieux pourquoi Mars, qui a jadis hébergé de l''eau liquide, est devenue depuis cet astre inhospitalier.
"Après dix mois de voyage et avoir parcouru 711 millions de kilomètres, Maven est arrivée en orbite de Mars tard dimanche", se félicite la Nasa sur son site internet.

Indeed, Dr. Dick, They Are Physical And Real! BTW, I'll Let You In On A Historical Fact: It's More Than 3 Or 4 % … It Seems You Fell Hook, Line & Sinker For Donald Quarles
Indeed, Dr. Dick, They Are Physical And Real! BTW, I'll Let You In On A Historical Fact: It's More Than 3 Or 4 % …
It Seems You Fell Hook, Line & Sinker For Donald Quarles ... Will ET Be Here Soon? NASA Brings Scientists, Theologians Together To Prepare
Looking for extraterrestrial life is akin to a search for a cosmic needle-in-a-haystack, as evidenced by the above incredible Hubble Space Telescope image showing approximately 10,000 galaxies.
A few days ago, NASA tried closing the gap between life on Earth and the possibilities of life elsewhere. The space agency and the Library of Congress (image below left) brought together scientists, historians, philosophers and theologians from around the world for a two-day symposium, "Preparing For Discovery." Their agenda: To explore how we prepare for the inevitable discovery of extraterrestrial life, be it simple microbial organisms or intelligent beings.
"We're looking at all scenarios about finding life. If you find microbes, that's one thing. If you find intelligence, it's another. And if they communicate, it's something else, and depending on what they say, it's something else!" said astronomer, symposium organizer and former chief NASA historian, Steven J. Dick.
"The idea is not to wait until we make a discovery, but to try and prepare the public for what the implications might be when such a discovery is made," Dick told The Huffington Post. "I think the reason that NASA is backing this is because of all the recent activity in the discovery of exoplanets and the advances in astrobiology in general.
"People just consider it much more likely now that we're going to find something -- probably microbes first and maybe intelligence later," he added. "The driving force behind this is from a scientific point of view that it seems much more likely now that we are going to find life at some point in the future."
Among the many speakers at last week's astrobiology symposium, one has raised a few international eyebrows in recent years.
"I believe [alien life exists], but I have no evidence. I would be really excited and it would make my understanding of my religion deeper and richer in ways that I can't even predict yet, which is why it would be so exciting," Brother Guy Consolmagno, a Jesuit priest, astronomer and Vatican planetary scientist told HuffPost senior science editor David Freeman.
Consolmagno has publicly stated his belief that "any entity -- no matter how many tentacles it has -- has a soul," and he's suggested that he would be happy to baptize any ETs, as long as they requested it.
"There has to be freedom to do science. Being a good scientist means admitting we never have the whole truth -- there's always more to learn." Consolmagno also doesn't think the public would panic when or if it's revealed that alien life has been found.
"I really think it would be a three-day wonder and then we'd go back to worrying about reality TV or the crazy things going on in Washington -- that's the way human beings are. Because I think most people are like me: we expect it's out there. And our reaction would be, 'Wow, thank heavens. It's about time."
Earth is no longer the center of the universe, nor is it flat -- at least that's the currently accepted thinking among most scientists. And we now know, conclusively, that there are a lot more planets than the ones in our own solar system.
"The number of habitable worlds in our galaxy is certainly in the tens of billions, minimum, and we haven't even talked about the moons. And the number of galaxies we can see, other than our own, is about 100 billion," Seth Shostak, senior astronomer at California's SETI Institute told HuffPost.
Watch this video zooming and panning through the night sky to show 10,000 galaxies photographed by the Hubble Space Telescope.
At the NASA/Library of Congress symposium, Shostak gave out some startling numbers about how many stars there are in the part of the universe that we can see. "It's a big number: 10,000 billion, billion. And we know that most of those stars have planets -- 70 or 80 percent. If all of those planets are sterile, and you're the only interesting thing happening in the cosmos, then you are a miracle. That would be exceptional in the extreme. So, the middle-of-the-road approach is to say, 'You're not a miracle, you're just another duck in a row of ducks.'"
"The bottom line of this," Shostak said, "is something like one in five of all stars may have an analog to Earth. That's a lot of habitable worlds, and, indeed, the number of Earths in our own galaxy might be on the order of 50 billion."
Those are big numbers to ponder.
The D.C. conference included a great deal of discussion about the upcoming mission of the Hubble's long-anticipated successor: the James Webb Space Telescope. As large as a tennis court, this deep space observatory is scheduled for a 2018 launch and will orbit beyond our moon. The Webb telescope will focus on new planetary discoveries and collect data from the atmospheres of those planets, looking for certain things that might point to what we would consider possible indicators of life.
HuffPost asked Dick, an astrobiologist, for his opinion on the continuing output of UFO reports around the world.
"I try to keep an open mind on this. Ninety-some percent can be explained by natural phenomena, etc. The question is what to do with the other 3 or 4 percent," Dick said. "My opinion is that they should be studied further, on the one hand. By definition, they're something that we don't know what they are. They could be some physical, psychological or social phenomena that we don't know about. But I think it's jumping to a conclusion that they're extraterrestrial. I don't see that evidence.
"I haven't looked at the evidence close enough to say that there's intelligence behind it. But I've seen enough to know that there are unexplained things that we should look at more, and right now, the U.S. government is not doing that."
The most precise measurement of an alien world's size
The most precise measurement of an alien world's size
Using data from NASA's Kepler and Spitzer Space Telescopes, scientists have made the most precise measurement ever of the size of a world outside our solar system, as illustrated in this artist's conception. Image credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech
What does it take to find life in the universe? Dr. Sara Seager of MIT is working hard to find out. Seager was recently interviewed by NPR’s Science Friday at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif. Sara believes the current search for exoplanets has broader implications for our future. “It’s a special time for us here on Earth. It’s the first time in human history that we actually have the technological capability to find other Earths, to identify them as Earths, and to hope to look for signs of life on the first handful or the first dozens or hundreds of exoplanets, and that’s a special time in history. So I’m trying to do what I can to make sure that happens now.”
Thanks to NASA's Kepler and Spitzer Space Telescopes, scientists have made the most precise measurement ever of the radius of a planet outside our solar system. The size of the exoplanet, dubbed Kepler-93b, is now known to an uncertainty of just 74 miles (119 kilometers) on either side of the planetary body.
The findings confirm Kepler-93b as a "super-Earth" that is about one-and-a-half times the size of our planet. Although super-Earths are common in the galaxy, none exist in our solar system. Exoplanets like Kepler-93b are therefore our only laboratories to study this major class of planet.
With good limits on the sizes and masses of super-Earths, scientists can finally start to theorize about what makes up these weird worlds. Previous measurements, by the Keck Observatory in Hawaii, had put Kepler-93b's mass at about 3.8 times that of Earth. The density of Kepler-93b, derived from its mass and newly obtained radius, indicates the planet is in fact very likely made of iron and rock, like Earth.
"With Kepler and Spitzer, we've captured the most precise measurement to date of an alien planet's size, which is critical for understanding these far-off worlds," said Sarah Ballard, a NASA Carl Sagan Fellow at the University of Washington in Seattle and lead author of a paper on the findings published in the Astrophysical Journal.
"The measurement is so precise that it's literally like being able to measure the height of a six-foot tall person to within three quarters of an inch -- if that person were standing on Jupiter," said Ballard.
Kepler-93b orbits a star located about 300 light-years away, with approximately 90 percent of the sun's mass and radius. The exoplanet's orbital distance -- only about one-sixth that of Mercury's from the sun -- implies a scorching surface temperature around 1,400 degrees Fahrenheit (760 degrees Celsius). Despite its newfound similarities in composition to Earth, Kepler-93b is far too hot for life.
To make the key measurement about this toasty exoplanet's radius, the Kepler and Spitzer telescopes each watched Kepler-93b cross, or transit, the face of its star, eclipsing a tiny portion of starlight. Kepler's unflinching gaze also simultaneously tracked the dimming of the star caused by seismic waves moving within its interior. These readings encode precise information about the star's interior. The team leveraged them to narrowly gauge the star's radius, which is crucial for measuring the planetary radius.
Spitzer, meanwhile, confirmed that the exoplanet's transit looked the same in infrared light as in Kepler's visible-light observations. These corroborating data from Spitzer -- some of which were gathered in a new, precision observing mode -- ruled out the possibility that Kepler's detection of the exoplanet was bogus, or a so-called false positive.
Taken together, the data boast an error bar of just one percent of the radius of Kepler-93b. The measurements mean that the planet, estimated at about 11,700 miles (18,800 kilometers) in diameter, could be bigger or smaller by about 150 miles (240 kilometers), the approximate distance between Washington, D.C., and Philadelphia.
Spitzer racked up a total of seven transits of Kepler-93b between 2010 and 2011. Three of the transits were snapped using a "peak-up" observational technique. In 2011, Spitzer engineers repurposed the spacecraft's peak-up camera, originally used to point the telescope precisely, to control where light lands on individual pixels within Spitzer's infrared camera.
The upshot of this rejiggering: Ballard and her colleagues were able to cut in half the range of uncertainty of the Spitzer measurements of the exoplanet radius, improving the agreement between the Spitzer and Kepler measurements.
"Ballard and her team have made a major scientific advance while demonstrating the power of Spitzer's new approach to exoplanet observations," said Michael Werner, project scientist for the Spitzer Space Telescope at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, California.

New said: The silver-grey object, which looks like a flying saucer, was photographed floating over Portsmouth. Lewis Rogers, 26, saw it when he was visiting a friend in the city. The animation director said: “My initial thought was it was an aeroplane but it was just moving too quickly. “I was the only one who saw it who was quick enough to take the picture. I definitely believe in UFOs. I often look up at the sky in the evening wondering if there is anything or anyone else out there.” Student Johnny Blackwell, 23, of nearby Southsea, said: “It didn’t look like a cloud and it was moving very fast.

New amazing video footage of a bright red colored UFO sighting recorded in the night sky above Chicago on 18th September 2014.
Witness said: Partly cloudy skies blocked the object from view until almost overhead. Note the longer shape of the object and the separation between forward and rear lighting arrays and the distance will decrease during filming.
Under heavy cloud cover on September 17, 2014, the witness saw the triangle-shaped UFO hovering about a half-mile away. Pictured: Gulf Shores, Alabama. (Credit: Google)
An Alabama witness at Gulf Shores reported watching a “massive-sized triangle” that appeared to be a half-mile away over Highway 59 west, according to testimony in Case 59981 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness and his family were vacating in the area when the object was first seen from a condo balcony about 9:30 p.m. on September 17, 2014.
“There had been a heavy cloud cover most of the day and was still present that night,” the witness stated. “The cloud cover was so thick I could observe no stars or planets. As I turned to my right, which would be a southwest direction, I saw three finger-tipped-sized yellow lights in a triangular pattern with a large expanse between them.”
The object appeared to hover, but slowly pivoted to change to a more southern direction. Pictured: Gulf Shores, Alabama. (Credit: Google)
The witness cleaned the binocular lens thinking it was dust or moisture and then continued to watch.
“As I watched the objects hovering just below the dense dark clouds, it became obvious it had a huge, dark, dense mass and triangular form. It appeared to be hovering perhaps a half-mile from my location with one light over Highway 59 west, one over water but close to the beach shore area and one light probably 300 to 400 feet out into the Gulf, but it was so dark with cloud coverage it was difficult to judge distance.”
The object remained in one spot, but seemed to move in place.
“It appeared to hover, but slowly pivoted to change to a more southern direction.”
The witness went inside momentarily and when he returned to the deck, the object was gone.
“The distance between lights and the dark density of the mass made me think of the Phoenix sighting several years ago. I have observed several UFOs over the years, but nothing this size before. I make an effort to eliminate other possibilities before stating an object is a UFO. I do not react with fear of them but just silently observe them when I have seen them. I will add that the object could not be seen at all with the naked eye but only with my binoculars, yet, no stars at all could be seen. I do not have video or photos of the sighting.”
The witness said the object reminded him of the 1997 Phoenix Lights sighting. Pictured: Gulf Shores, Alabama. (Credit: Google)
Gulf Shores is a coastal city in Baldwin County, Alabama, population 9,741. Alabama MUFON is investigating. Alabama has a current UFO Alert Rating of 5 with a low number of recent reports nationally. Alabama had 11 UFO reports in August 2014 – the 18th highest reporting state – while California had 99 reports as the highest reporting state. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.
The UFO Alert Rating System is based on five levels – 1 through 5 – where states with 150 or more reports for the month are rated an Alert 1; states with 100 or more reports are rated an Alert 2; 25 reports or more for the month are rated an Alert 3; 13 or more reports are rated an Alert 4; and those states with less than 13 reports for the month are an Alert 5.
Federal meteorologists calculated that more heat records were set around the globe last month, including Earth's hottest August. May, June and August all set global heat records this year. Meteorologists said Thursday that the average world temperature in August was 61.36 degrees Fahrenheit (16.35 degrees Celsius), breaking a record set in 1998. August was especially hot in the Pacific and Indian oceans and Africa, but cooler in parts of the United States, Europe and Australia. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration records go back to 1880. The first three-quarters of 2014 are the third warmest on record. NOAA climate scientist Jake Crouch said there's a good chance that 2014 will end up as the hottest year. The world's oceans in August effectively tied last June for the seas' all-time heat record. - NBC News
Spiritual healer arrested after killing follower...to prove that he could bring him back to life
A pir was arrested in Pakistan on Wednesday for killing a follower to prove his claim that he could bring him back to life. A Saddar police spokesman said Muhammad Sabir, a pir of village Mubarakabad in Bahawalnagar, gained popularity over the last five years for his ability to perform ‘miracles’. He said on Tuesday, he announced that he could breathe life back into a dead man.
The pir gave the condition that the victim must be married and have children. Sabir said 40-year-old Muhammad Niaz, a daily wage worker and father of six children, volunteered for the miracle. On Wednesday, Niaz was placed on a table in a square and his hands and legs were bound. The police spokesman said Sabir then sliced his throat as people looked on. Meanwhile, an anonymous caller informed the police about ‘the miracle.’
The spokesman said that by the time police arrived, Niaz had died. Witnesses said Sabir uttered some words to bring him back to life. They said when he realized his ‘miracle’ had not worked, he tried to flee. He was detained by the villagers and handed over to the police. Villagers told police that he used ask a local pet store to donate birds and dogs so that could save villagers from black magic. They said he sacrificed animals and sprinkled their blood on his followers.
He also asked them to sprinkle it at the entrance of their houses to be protected from evil. A report against the cleric has been lodged in Saddar police station. The body of the victim was taken to a hospital for an autopsy and later handed over to the family for burial. Samina, sister of the victim, said that her brother had sacrificed himself for the spiritual leader. “Why should I mourn when I know that my brother is in heaven?” she said. “He will be rewarded for his services for the spiritual leader in afterlife.” She said her brother had volunteered for the miracle and that the pir should not have been arrested. - Tribune
Tony Duffy's claim to have met yowies puts him in surprisingly good company.
Former Queensland senator Bill O'Chee was one of more than a dozen people, including fellow high school students and teachers, who claimed to have seen such a creature at a Springbrook camp site in 1977.
It was, Mr O'Chee said "an immensely powerful creature" and he later told a documentary interviewer: "Basically we saw a yowie, but we didn't know what they were at the time.
"We saw a sort of hairy, ape-like thing that probably would have stood about eight feet tall," he said. Read more at Gympie Time
Martín photographed a series of blue lights moving randomly through the sky. “I think it's a UFO,” he said. Read the article and draw your own conclusions.
Martín was strolling down Avenida Independencia, taking in his surroundings. When he reached Rawson, he stopped to look at a sign posted to a wall, because in the background, the steady glow of a set of lights illuminated it. This occurred on Friday (09.19.14) at around 20:00 hours.
“They moved at random,” says the young man, startled at the vision, standing in the middle of the street looking fixedly at what seemed to be an unidentified flying object. Yes, a UFO. He immediately pulled a video camera out of his bag and recorded the unusual sight. He recorded the lights that moved “in a Z formation” for a little over two minutes, until he stopped recording. He also took a few photographs for good measure.
“When I watched the video back home I realized the flying object had blue lights, and from what I was able to find out, there are no commercial airliners with lights of that sort,” Martín Malaspina explained to 0223. He also added: “The lights moved at random, not in a linear manner as aircraft or helicopters tend to travel.”
The Mar del Plata resident told 0223 that this “isn't the first time” that he's come across unidentified flying objects, but in this opportunity he had a camera to capture the moment.
The bizarre images and information provided by Martín appear to be directly connected with the thousands of stories to be found in the most exclusive channels of this widespread popular belief.
“I think it's an unidentified flying object,” Martín said frankly.
Alleged UFO over Portsmouth. (Credit: Lewis Rogers)
Multiple witnesses allegedly observed a UFO over the Hampshire city of Portsmouth in England.
Several people began posting sighting claims on Twitter beginning on Tuesday, September 16. Witnesses described seeing a fast moving, grey, disc-like object. One witness, Lewis Rogers, claimed he saw the strange object on Wednesday, September 17, and he posted a photo of the UFO to Twitter.
Local newspaper, the Portsmouth News, published a story about the UFO sightings. “My initial thought was it was an aeroplane, but it was just moving too quickly,” Rogers explained to the paper. “I was the only one that saw it but was quick enough to take the picture.” He continued, “I definitely believe in UFOs and am very interested in science fiction, and often look up at the sky in the evening wondering if there is anything or anyone else out there.”
The object in Rogers’ photo is just an elongated blur, providing no detail. The object’s appearance led some to speculate that it was simply a bird or even a cloud. The Portsmouth News checked with the Met Office, UK’s national weather service, to get a professional opinion about the unusual object. The Met’s Laura Young stated, “After looking at the images, I can say the object is nothing to do with the weather. It is not meteorological and is not a cloud.”
Media outlets around the world ran with the story about this mysterious UFO over Portsmouth, despite the lack of any real details except for photos showing a blurry object in the sky.
A major red flag with this case emerged right from the start. Although several people were posting on Twitter about having seen the UFO, or about wanting to see the UFO, all of these posts included the hashtag #pompeyufo (Pompey is the nickname for Portsmouth). And the posts generally seemed silly and light-hearted. Even Rogers was having fun with his alleged sighting. He posted, “Just found the #pompeyufo,” and included a photo of himself posing with a miniature figure of E.T.
The use of a hashtag by multiple people is a good indication that a UFO sighting is a hoax carried out with the hopes of creating a buzz to promote some upcoming event.
And that is exactly what happened in this case.
Several of the people posting on Twitter about the #pompeyufo are members of the Hill Valley Preservation Society (a group of Back to the Future fans). This group is participating in the upcoming Sci Fi and Fantasy Weekend, a weekend event in Portsmouth celebrating science fiction and fantasy. On Monday, September 22, organizers posted on the event’s Facebook page that they were responsible for the UFO hoax. It was an attempt at a viral marketing campaign for the upcoming event.
This isn’t the first UFO hoax carried out for promotional purposes. And it surely won’t be the last. The UFO hoax is always a confusing and questionable marketing gimmick. Sure, in this case, the UFO photo made headlines around the world. But all that attention is on the UFO, not the event. Although the truth about its purpose has been revealed, very few media outlets will go back and edit their stories, or choose to publish new stories about the UFO’s true origin.
But beyond the UFO’s effectiveness as a marketing gimmick, its use in instances like this perpetuates the idea that all UFOs are either hoaxes or have some other easy explanation. It’s also like “crying wolf,” which makes media outlets less likely to take UFO sightings seriously. Yes, most UFO sightings can eventually be explained. But there are the truly unexplainable instances out there that deserve widespread attention and inquiry. Hoaxes like the Portsmouth UFO make that increasingly difficult by putting the global media’s spotlight on rubbish.
SterrenkundeHet team van Amerikaanse astronomen dat dit voorjaar spectaculaire eerste waarnemingen vanaf de zuidpool van de versnellende oerknal presenteerde, heeft voor zijn beurt gesproken. Wat ze voor veelzeggende kreukels in de oerknal hielden, is niet te onderscheiden van stof in de Melkweg.
Die vernietigende conclusie komt uit een nieuwe analyse van de waarnemingen van de kosmische achtergrondruis die eerder werden gemaakt met de Planck-satelliet. Stof, zo blijkt, geeft hetzelfde soort verstoringen van die ruis als het effect dat het Bicep2-team voor zogeheten inflatie hield.
Inflatie is de extreem versnelde uitzetting van het piepjonge heelal, vlak na de oerknal zelf, zo'n 15 miljard haar geleden. Dat effect verklaart waarom het heelal op grote schaal zo gelijkmatig is, maar is tot nog toe nooit direct waargenomen. Bicep2 claimde dat nu wel te kunnen.
Inflatie is zo heftig, dat ruimte en tijd zelf rimpelingen vertonen. Die zijn in theorie nog steeds te zien aan de manier waarop de achtergrondstraling verdraaid is, de zogeheten B-modepolarisatie.
"Bewijs voor kosmische inflatie" Dit voorjaar meldde het team van de Bicep2-radiotelescoop op de Zuidpool dat het die verdraaiingen op een stukje hemel had gevonden. Dat zou het rechtstreekse bewijs voor kosmische inflatie zijn. Kosmologen vierden het nieuws met champagne.
Het spectaculaire resultaat werd kort daarna echter al in twijfel getrokken, omdat experts meenden dat de Amerikanen het signaal van stof in hun analyses waren vergeten. Daarna was het wachten op het team van Planck, dat nu concludeert dat de claims van Bicep2 onhoudbaar zijn. Het stofsignaal, stellen ze vast, is niet te verwaarlozen en zelfs even sterk als wat Bicep2 voor oerknalrimpels hield.
De Groningse kosmoloog Diederik Roest noemt de Planck-resultaten overtuigend. "Dit wil niet helemaal zeggen dat Bicep2 niets van vlak na de oerknal ziet, maar wat er na aftrek van stof overblijft, is binnen de foutenmarges niet veel."
De teams van Planck en Bicep2 zeggen nu samen nog beter te gaan uitzoeken wat er eventueel nog wel uit de waarnemingen is af te leiden over kosmische inflatie. Uit de Planck-metingen is bijvoorbeeld af te leiden welke gebieden aan de hemel weinig stof bevatten, zodat nieuwe metingen op die plaatsen misschien wel bewijzen voor inflatie kunnen leveren.

TIMBER!
TIMBER!
This Week's Episode: Gene and Chris present one of our most-requested guests, Travis Walton. Walton's 1975 UFO abduction encounter, where he disappeared for five days after encountering a flying saucer, has been the subject of back and forth discussions and controversy. His experiences were recounted in his book, "Fire in the Sky: The Walton Experience," and somewhat fictionalized in a 1993 movie of the same name. In November, 2014, Travis is hosting a conference, Skyfire Summit, in Heber, AZ (near where he was dropped off by the "aliens"). The event will feature Walton, Richard Dolan, Stanton T. Friedman, Peter Robbins, Kathleen Marden, Donald Schmitt, Linda Moulton Howe, Tracy Torme and others including Chris.
Since then, many books and internet sites have been filled with conflicting theories about whether it was an alien visitation, a military aircraft, the beam from Orfordness Lighthouse or natural phenomena.
The Forestry Commission opened a UFO Trail in 2005 and placed three logs in a clearing where witnesses claimed a craft had landed and disappeared.
The new UFO will be placed in the same clearing.
The Forestry Commission's UFO Trail leaflet has a disclaimer about reported UFO sightings
Nigel Turner, recreation manager at Rendlesham Forest, said: "Clearly something happened - there's a party who believe it was something military, there are people who believe it was extraterrestrial activity and we respect all opinions.
"We think it will fit in well, because it offers a goal for people completing the trail and also give an insight into our timber-growing and conservation work."
Olivia English designed the UFO sculpture and said it was based on one of the servicemen's sketches and other descriptions of sightings in the forest.
She said: "The design is really about trying to find a middle ground and remaining impartial and creating an interpretation.
"The symbols on the side of the UFO were originally part of the trail, but we've recycled them to add another dimension. There's no secret code - it's art."

Wetenschapper: "Ik heb bewijs voor Bigfoot gevonden in Rusland"
Wetenschapper: “Ik heb bewijs voor Bigfoot gevonden in Rusland”
In Canada is men op zoek naar Sasquatch, in de Himalaya naar de yeti en in de Verenigde Staten naar Bigfoot. Maar wist je dat ook de Russen een versie van de verschrikkelijke sneeuwman hebben? Een Russische wetenschapper zegt dat hij aan de hand van een stuk bast kan aantonen dat de Almas zich schuilhoudt in de bossen rond Moskou.
“De Almas komt vrijwel over de gehele wereld voor,” vertelde Andrei Stroganov aan de Moscow Times. “Ik ben niet bang: ze zijn goedaardig en hebben onze bescherming nodig.” De biofysicus van de prestigieuze Landbouwacademie in Moskou zegt dat hij een stuk boomschors heeft gevonden in de buurt van Moskou dat sporen bevat van een grote primaat.
Horizontale krassen op de schors zouden afkomstig zijn van een poot met een doorsnee van zo’n 23 centimeter. Volgens Stroganov is het uitgesloten dat de sporen zijn achtergelaten door een beer.
Hij claimt de Almas ook gezien te hebben tijdens een recent bezoek aan Tsjeljabinsk in de Oeral, maar wilde niet ingaan op details. De onderzoeker gaat fragmenten van de schors onderzoeken in een laboratorium in Alabama, waar eventueel DNA-materiaal wordt geanalyseerd en een morfologisch onderzoek wordt gedaan.
Eerder dit jaar werd nieuw DNA-onderzoek gepubliceerd over het bestaan van Bigfoot. De haren die onderzoekers op 57 plaatsen over heel de wereld hadden gevonden kwamen echter overeen met die van koeien, paarden, honden, wasberen en beren.
Het onderzoek werd gestart vanwege het ongeloof van aanhangers van de Bigfoot-theorie dat serieuze wetenschappers zijn bestaan alleen maar zouden ontkennen zonder hier onderzoek naar te hebben gedaan. Een uitdaging die Oxford-onderzoeker Bryan Sykes maar al te graag aannam.
Twee haarmonsters uit Azië vertoonden wel overeenkomsten met een uitgestorven poolbeer uit de steentijd. Dat kan er op wijzen dat in dat gebied een nog onbekende beersoort rondzwerft.
In 1958 riep de Sovjetregering een speciale Almas-commissie in het leven om naar het wezen te speuren. Gedacht wordt dat de Almas zich ophoudt in de oblast Kemerovo in Siberië, de Kaukasus en de Oeral.
Er zijn verhalen bekend van Bijbelse personen die tot wel 900 jaar oud werden. Teksten uit verschillende culturen spreken van een levensverwachting die door moderne mensen onmogelijk wordt geacht. Sommigen wijten dit aan een foute vertaling, terwijl anderen zeggen dat de getallen een symbolische betekenis hebben. Historici vragen zich echter af of de levensverwachting van de mens in de afgelopen paar duizend jaar drastisch is afgenomen.
In het Oude Nabije Oosten werd een jaar gelijkgesteld aan de omlooptijd van de maan om de aarde (een maand) in plaats van de omlooptijd van de aarde om de zon (12 maanden), schreef Carol A. Hill in 2003 in het tijdschrift Perspectives on Science and Christian Faith. Na correctie zou Adam uit de Bijbel niet 930, maar 77 jaar zijn geworden. Maar dat zou ook betekenen dat hij al op 11-jarige leeftijd zijn zoon Henoch heeft verwerkt. En Henoch zou dan slechts 5 jaar oud zijn geweest toen hij zijn zoon Methusalah verwekte. “Getallen in Genesis kunnen zowel een echte (numerieke) als heilige (numerologische of symbolische) betekenis hebben,” aldus Hill.
De Koningslijst, die de namen van koningen geeft van voor de zondvloed, laat zien dat de levensverwachting van de mens door de jaren heen sterk is afgenomen. Voor de zondvloed werden mensen een paar honderd jaar tot wel meer dan 1000 jaar oud, zo blijkt uit de Koningslijst. In de Bijbel wordt eenzelfde beeld zichtbaar: Adam zou 930 jaar oud zijn geworden, Noach 500 jaar en Abraham 175 jaar.
Dwight Young van de Brandeis-universiteit in de Amerikaanse staat Massachusetts trof in de Koningslijst kwadraten aan. Hij stuitte vaak op 900, het kwadraat van 30; 625, het kwadraat van 25; en 400, het kwadraat van 20. Zijn onderzoek werd in 1988 gepubliceerd in het Journal of Near Eastern Studies. Mede-oprichter van de Church of God in Texas Arthur Mendez denkt dat de daling van de levensverwachting is te wijten aan de blootstelling aan straling of gifstoffen.
In het oude China werden mensen veel ouder dan nu. Acupuncturist Joseph P. Hou schreef in zijn boek Healthy Longevity Techniques: “Uit Chinese medische archieven blijkt dat een arts genaamd Cuie Wenz uit de Qin-dynastie 300 jaar oud is geworden. Gee Yule uit de Han-dynastie werd 280 jaar oud. De taoïstische monnik Hui Zhao stierf op 290-jarige leeftijd.”
In de Chinese encyclopedie van medische zaken zijn veel meer van dit soort gevallen te vinden. Er valt bijvoorbeeld te lezen over een taoïstische meester, Li Quingyuan, die 250 jaar oud is geworden. Dr. Hou schreef dat de sleutel tot een lang leven niet alleen moet worden gezocht in fysieke voeding, maar ook in mentale en spirituele voeding.
De Sjahnama (het Boek der Koningen), een Perzisch epos dat rond het jaar 1010 werd opgeschreven door dichter Ferdausi, verhaalt over koningen die 1000 jaar aan de macht waren.
In 1996 maakte India Today melding van Bir Narayan Chaudhary, een 141-jarige inwoner van het dorpje Tharu in Nepal. In de Kaukasus zouden mensen met gemak een leeftijd van 170 jaar bereiken.
“Mensen die zo oud worden leiden over het algemeen een nederig en eenvoudig bestaan en doen tot op zeer late leeftijd fysiek zwaar werk, vaak buiten de deur. Een voorbeeld is Shisali Nislinlow, een 170-jarige tuinier uit Azerbeidzjan die zich nooit haastte,” schreef dr. Hou. “Hij zei: ‘Ik haast me nooit. Ik verricht al 150 jaar fysiek zwaar werk’.”
Russische wetenschapper: “Kleine IJstijd in plaats van global warming
Russische wetenschapper: “Kleine IJstijd in plaats van global warming”
De wereld zal spoedig getuige zijn van een ‘mini-ijstijd’ in plaats van global warming, doordat de zonneactiviteit de afgelopen jaren is afgenomen. Dat vertelde een Russische wetenschapper aan persbureau RIA Novosti.
“In de afgelopen 17 jaar is de wereldtemperatuur niet gestegen. Sinds 1997 is er geen sprake meer geweest van opwarming. De bestralingssterkte van de zon neemt al sinds 1990 in rap tempo af. Sinds 1990 heeft de zon de aarde niet meer verwarmd zoals in het verleden,” zei astrofysicus Habibullo Abdussamatov van de sterrenwacht Pulkovo in Sint-Petersburg.
Volgens Abdussamatov kunnen we begin volgend jaar al in een mini-ijstijd terechtkomen. Een dergelijke mini-ijstijd duurt ongeveer 200 jaar, zei hij tegenover RIA Novosti. Hij voegde toe dat de temperatuur tijdens mini-ijstijden gewoonlijk met 1-1.5°C daalt.
“De gemiddelde temperatuur op aarde daalt met één tot anderhalve graad als we de afkoelingsfase ingaan. Dit gebeurt naar verwachting rond het jaar 2060,” zei hij. Abdussamatov vermoedt dat de afkoelingsfase ongeveer 45 tot 65 jaar zal duren, waarna de wereld rond het begin van de 22e eeuw weer enigszins zal opwarmen. Dit heeft volgens hem alles te maken met veranderingen in zonneactiviteit.
De wereld moet zich per direct voorbereiden op een ‘global cooldown’, zei hij. Politici en zakenmagnaten moeten de effecten van de volgende Kleine IJstijd op de industrie, landbouw en leefomstandigheden in kaart gaan brengen, stelde Abdussamatov.
“At Least 4 Known Alien Species Have Been Visiting Earth For Thousands Of Years” X Canadian Defence Minister Continues To Blow The Whistle
“At Least 4 Known Alien Species Have Been Visiting Earth For Thousands Of Years” X Canadian Defence Minister Continues To Blow The Whistle
I am well aware that just because somebody (no matter what their ‘position’) says something to be true, does not mean it’s true. Exceptions, however can be made if there is evidence that goes beyond their words and correlates with what they say. At the end of the day, you have to listen to what your heart tells you.
Paul Hellyer was the Canadian Minister of National Defense in the 1960′s during the cold war. He was responsible for combining the Canadian Air Force, Navy and Army into what is known today as the Canadian Forces. He was the highest ranking person (on paper) inside of the Department of Defence for Canada. The Honorable Paul Hellyer is the highest ranking person among all g8 countries to openly speak about UFOs and extraterrestrials.
He has been speaking about UFOs and extraterrestrials for quite some time now, and he recently made an appearance on RT news stating that there are at least 4 known alien species that have been visiting Earth for thousands of years.
Upon retirement, Hellyer began to blow the whistle on UFOs and extraterrestrials. His testimony is backed up by hundreds of other high ranking military and political personnel all over the world, including official documents released by dozens of governments worldwide that have officially acknowledged the presence of UFOs.
I think it’s also important to point out that the Canadian government recently acknowledged the fact that various federal agencies, including Transport Canada, the RCMP and the Department of National Defence used to track and investigate UFO sightings. (1) They claim to have stopped those programs, but that contradicts the defence minister’s (Hellyer) claims. There is good reason to believe, and a lot of evidence to suggest that some of these UFOs are indeed extraterrestrial space craft (not all military), and the activities of the agencies responsible for these programs goes far beyond just tracking of UFOs, but into contact with various extraterrestrial races, other classified technological developments and more.
Here is some of what Paul Hellyer has to say, for more you can watch the video clip below:
” In one of the cases during the cold war, 1961, there were about 50 UFOs in formation flying South from Russia across Europe. The supreme allied commander was very concerned and was about ready to press the panic button when they turned around and went back over the North Pole. They decided to do an investigation and they investigated for three years and they decided that with absolute certainty that four different species, at least, have been visiting this planet for thousands of years. There’s been a lot more activity in the past two decades, especially since we invented the atomic bomb. They are very concerned about that and if we will use it again, because the whole cosmos is a unity and it affects not just us but other people in the cosmos. They’re very much afraid that we might start using atomic weapons again and this would be very bad for us, and them also.” – Paul Hellyer
“Many are benign and benevolent, and a few are not. They come from various places, for a long while I only knew about ones that came from different star systems, the Pleadies. There are extraterrestrials that come from Andromeda, and ones that live on one of Saturn’s moon’s. There is a federation of these people, and they have rules, one of them is that they don’t interfere with our affairs unless they are invited. They have accepted the fact that this is our planet, and we have the right to run it but they are very concerned, they don’t think that we are good stewards of our planet. We are ruining our planet, we’re doing all sorts of things that we shouldn’t be doing, and they don’t like that. They’ve made it clear, and they have given us a warning.” – Paul Hellyer
“Decades ago, visitors from other planets warned us about the direction we were heading and offered to help. Instead, some of us interpreted their visits as a threat, and decided to shoot first and ask questions after. It is ironic that the US should be fighting monstrously expensive wars, allegedly to bring democracy to those countries, when it itself can no longer claim to be called a democracy when trillions, and I mean thousands of billions of dollars have been spent on black projects which both congress and the commander in chief have been kept deliberately in the dark.” – Paul Hellyer
De Japanse bouwreus Obayashi wil tegen 2050 een ruimtelift bouwen, zo heeft de Australische televisiezender ABC gemeld. Indien het project een succes wordt, zal dit een revolutie in het reizen door de ruimte ontketenen en potentieel de wereldeconomie transformeren.
De ruimtelift zal 96.000 km moeten overbruggen naar een nieuw te bouwen ruimtestation. Door magnetische lineaire motoren aangedreven voertuigen zullen tot dertig mensen en vracht vervoeren tegen een kostprijs die maar een fractie is van die voor raketten, meent Obayashi. De reis zal zeven dagen duren.
Dat fantasie werkelijkheid wordt, heeft te maken met de ontwikkeling van koolstof nanotechnologie. Een grote internationale studie toonde in 2012 aan dat een ruimtelift een haalbare kaart is, maar best via internationale samenwerking te verwezenlijken is. Deskundigen menen dat een ruimtelift het einde kan inluiden van raketten die van op Aarde worden gelanceerd.
De specialisten menen ook dat een ruimtelift de energieproblemen in de wereld kan oplossen door grote hoeveelheden zonne-energie te kunnen leveren of ook een oplossing kan bieden voor het opslaan van nucleair afval. Ook ruimtetoerisme kan erdoor gediend zijn.

UFO spotted over Portsmouth – and the MET Office says it ISN’T a cloud
UFO spotted over Portsmouth – and the MET Office says it ISN’T a cloud
Where did this unknown flying object come from? Mars?(Picture: Apex)
Many Portsmouth residents were surprised, even alarmed, to see what appeared to be a flying saucer over the south coast.
UFO sightings in the United Kingdom have been mostly left to crop circles but now we have our very own spacecraft sighting.
Cynics among us might say that it is only a queerly shaped cloud but Laura Young from The Met Office is left baffled: ‘After looking at the images, I can say the object is nothing to do with the weather.
‘It is not meteorological and is not a cloud.’
South coast resident Johnny Blackwell spoke of what he saw: ‘I don’t believe in UFOs, but when I saw this I didn’t know what it was.’

UFO joins air show in Chisinau, Moldova - The danger of UFOs during air shows!
During an air show in Chisinau, Moldova on September 20, 2014, an onlooker photographed a strange object what looks like a disc-shaped UFO.
Image left: The object was hovering more closer then the low altitude plane.
It is not the first time a UFO is observed during an air show.
It has been found that when a UFO appears during an air show, in many cases this leads to an almost hit or a fatal crash of the stunt plane.
These objects are unknown and could be drones, remote controlled model airplanes or helicopters, birds or even extraterrestrial craft.
Image below: Unknown objects captured during two different air shows.
Two remarkable cases:
1. UFO Fly-bys at Chilean Ceremony.
It was taken by an onlooker in November, 2010 during the changing of the Air Force Command at El Bosque Air Base in Santiago, Chile.
2. UFO at Madrid air show
During the Madrid air show in May, 2013, a jet fighter crashes, probably caused by a UFO.

Massive Ocean discovered towards the Earths Core!
Massive Ocean discovered towards the Earths Core!
A reservoir of water three times the volume of all the oceans has been discovered deep beneath the Earth’s surface. The finding may explain where Earth’s seas came from, and lend some interesting evidence to the Hollow Earth Theory.
The water is hidden inside a blue rock called ringwoodite that lies 700 kilometres underground in the mantle, the layer of hot rock between Earth’s surface and its core. The huge size of the reservoir throws new light on the origin of Earth’s water. Many geologists think water arrived in comets as they struck the planet, but the new discovery supports an alternative idea that the oceans gradually oozed out of the interior of the early Earth.
“It’s good evidence the Earth’s water came from within,” says Steven Jacobsen of Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois. The hidden water could also act as a buffer for the oceans on the surface, explaining why they have stayed the same size for millions of years.
Jacobsen’s team used 2000 seismometers to study the seismic waves generated by more than 500 earthquakes. These waves move throughout Earth’s interior, including the core, and can be detected at the surface. “They make the Earth ring like a bell for days afterwards,” says Jacobsen. By measuring the speed of the waves at different depths, the team could figure out which types of rocks the waves were passing through. The water layer revealed itself because the waves slowed down, as it takes them longer to get through soggy rock than dry rock.
Jacobsen worked out in advance what would happen to the waves if water-containing ringwoodite was present. He grew ringwoodite in his lab, and exposed samples of it to massive pressures and temperatures matching those at 700 kilometres down.
Sure enough, they found signs of wet ringwoodite in the transition zone 700 kilometres down, which divides the upper and lower regions of the mantle. At that depth, the pressures and temperatures are just right to squeeze the water out of the ringwoodite. “It’s rock with water along the boundaries between the grains, almost as if they’re sweating,” says Jacobsen.
Jacobsen’s finding supports a recent study by Graham Pearson of the University of Alberta in Edmonton, Canada. Pearson studied a diamond from the transition zone that had been carried to the surface in a volcano, and found that it contained water-bearing ringwoodite, the first strong evidence that there was lots of water in the transition zone (Nature, doi.org/s6h).
“Since our initial report of hydrous ringwoodite, we’ve found another ringwoodite crystal, also containing water, so the evidence is now very strong,” says Pearson.
So far, Jacobsen only has evidence that the watery rock sits beneath the US. He now wants to find out if it wraps around the entire planet.
“We should be grateful for this deep reservoir,” says Jacobsen. “If it wasn’t there, it would be on the surface of the Earth, and mountain tops would be the only land poking out.”

What Happened to the Sunken City of Cuba?
What Happened to the Sunken City of Cuba?
Just over a decade ago, a team of explorers were working on an exploration and survey mission off the western coast of Cuba when their sonar equipment picked up a perplexing series of stone structures lying some 650 metres below the surface. The structures appeared completely analogous against the barren ‘desert’ of the ocean floor and seemed to show symmetrically organized stones reminiscent of an urban development. A media flurry soon ensued with news sites sporting headlines such as ‘Atlantis Discovered in Cuba’ and ‘Lost City of the Caribbean Found’. However, the finding also attracted the attention of the government, national museum, and national geographic, who all made promises to investigate the strange sonar images. Now, ten years on, the story has disappeared into obscurity. What ever happened to the sunken ‘ruins’ of Cuba? Were they ever fully investigated? And why has the media fallen silent on this unusual discovery?
The discovery was first made in 2001 when Pauline Zalitzki, a marine engineer, and her husband Paul Weinzweig, owners of a Canadian company called Advanced Digital Communications (ADC), were working on a survey mission in conjunction with the Cuban government off the tip of the Guanahacabibes Peninsula in the Pinar del Río Province of Cuba. ADC was one of four firms working in a joint venture with President Fidel Castro's government to explore Cuban waters, which hold hundreds of treasure-laden ships from the Spanish colonial era. The team was using advanced sonar equipment to scan a 2 square kilometre area of the sea floor when they noticed a series of symmetrical and geometric stone structures resembling an urban complex.

Upon studying the sonar images, Zalitzki observed what appeared to be unusual formations of smooth blocks, crests, and geometric shapes. Some of the blocks looked like they were built in pyramid shapes, others were circular.
In July 2001, they returned to the site with geologist Manuel Iturralde, senior researcher of Cuba's Natural History Museum, this time equipped with a Remotely Operated Vehicle to examine and film the structures. The images revealed large blocks of stone resembling hewn granite, measuring about 8 feet by 10 feet. Some blocks appeared deliberately stacked atop one another, others appeared isolated from the rest. Zalitzki said that the images appeared to reflect the ruins of a submerged city but was reluctant to draw any conclusions without further evidence.
“These are extremely peculiar structures, and they have captured our imagination,” said Iturralde, who has studied countless underwater formations. “But if I had to explain this geologically, I would have a hard time.”
Estimating that it would have taken 50,000 years for such structures to have sunken to the depth at which they were said to be found, Iturralde added "50,000 years ago there wasn't the architectural capacity in any of the cultures we know of to build complex buildings." A specialist in underwater archaeology at Florida State University added "It would be cool if they were right, but it would be real advanced for anything we would see in the New World for that time frame. The structures are out of time and out of place."
In the media storm that followed the announcement of the discovery, news sites were quick to draw parallels with the fabled lost city of Atlantis. However, Zelitsky and Weinzweig were unwilling to make such comparisons. The story is myth, said Zelitsky. "What we have found is more likely remnants of a local culture," once located on a 100-mile "land bridge" that joined Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula with Cuba. Iturralde added that there are local legends of the Maya and native Yucatecos that tell of an island inhabited by their ancestors that vanished beneath the waves. Nevertheless, Iturralde does not discount the possibility that the rock formations are merely the result of the wonders of Mother Nature. “Nature is able to create some really unimaginable structures,” he said.
Despite hundreds of media outlets reporting on sunken cities, advanced civilizations, the lost city of Atlantis, and submerged ruins, there are others who are not so willing to accept this point of view. Keith Fitzpatrick-Matthews from the debunking website Bad Archaeology, claimed that the depth of the alleged remains are the biggest problem for the sunken city proponents. During the Pleistocene, which was characterised by a series of ice ages, sea levels dropped significantly, but the maximum drop was around 100 metres.
“At no point during the Ice Age would it have been above sea level unless, of course, the land on which they stand has sunk. This is the claim made for Atlantis: according to Plato’s account, it was destroyed “by violent earthquakes and floods”. However, if we take Plato at his word – as we must if we assume Atlantis to have been an historical place – the violence of its sinking makes it improbable that an entire city could have survived plunging more than 600 m into an abyss,” writes Fitzpatrick-Matthews.
If we assume that he is right and that these stone structures do not reflect an ancient submerged city but are simply products of nature, then surely geologists and other scientists would be quick to jump on the finding and investigate what freakish event of nature caused such peculiar formations. Strangely, however, there have been no reported follow-up investigations and news outlets have gone deathly silent on the matter. What happened to all the promises from the government, national museum, National Geographic, and other scientists to carry out further surveys?
The quick dismissal of the story has led some to question whether there has been a suppression of information regarding the finding. However, Fitzpatrick-Matthews claims the story simply went cold and that in the end experts were not convinced that Zelitsky had really discovered a sunken city.

De Melkweg in kaart: 219 miljoen sterren - HLN
De Melkweg in kaart: 219 miljoen sterren - HLN
Bron: ANP
UPDATE Een internationaal team van sterrenkundigen heeft 219 miljoen sterren in de Melkweg in kaart gebracht, de meest uitgebreide catalogus tot nu toe.
De catalogus is vandaag in het vakblad Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society verschenen. Het team maakte gebruik van de Isaac Newton Telescope (INT) op het Spaanse eiland La Palma. Daarmee kunnen sterren worden gespot die een miljoen keer zwakker schijnen dan met het blote oog te zien is. Het duurde tien jaar om de miljoenen sterren in kaart te brengen.
Sterrenkundigen schatten dat er minstens 100 miljard sterren in de Melkweg zijn. Vanaf de aarde is daar maar een klein deel van te zien. De Melkweg heeft een doorsnede van zo'n 100.000 lichtjaren. Eén lichtjaar is zo'n 10 biljoen kilometer.
De kaart is samengesteld onder leiding van Geert Barentsen van de universiteit van Hertfordshire in het Britse Hatfield.
De Amerikaanse ruimtevaartorganisatie Nasa betwijfelt of de krater in Nicaragua het gevolg is van een meteorietinslag dit weekend. Er was geen vuurbal te zien, aldus Bill Cooke, hoofd van de Nasa-afdeling voor meteorieten, maandag. Dit houdt dus de mogelijkheid open dat iets anders de krater in de buurt van de hoofdstad heeft veroorzaakt.
Volgens Nicaraguaanse bronnen sloeg in de nacht van zaterdag op zondag een meteoriet in op een bebost gebied in de buurt van de internationale luchthaven. Deze krachtige inslag veroorzaakte een krater van 12 meter diameter en 5,5 meter diep.
Astronomen hebben met de Hubble-telescoop een monsterlijk groot zwart gat ontdekt in een van de kleinste bekende sterrenstelsels. Dat meldt de Amerikaanse ruimtevaartorganisatie NASA vandaag.
De NASA ontdekte een van de kleinste en meest compacte sterrenstelsel ooit: 140 miljoen sterren binnen een diameter van 300 lichtjaar. In het midden van dat sterrenstelsel bleek een zwart gat te zitten dat bijna vijf keer zo groot is als dat in de Melkweg.
Een miljoen sterren "Als je in dit kleine sterrenstelsel zou leven, zou je 's nachts minstens een miljoen sterren kunnen zien met het blote oog", leggen de wetenschappers uit. Ter vergelijk: op aarde zijn er 's nachts zo'n 4.000 sterren zichtbaar.
De nieuwe vondst zou kunnen bewijzen dat 'dwergsterrenstelsels' afgescheurde delen zijn van grotere sterrenstelsels. "We kennen geen enkele andere manier waarop er zo'n groot zwart gat zou kan ontstaan in zo'n klein object", zegt astronoom Anil Seth van de Universiteit van Utah.

Passagier filmt UFO vanuit vliegtuig - HLN
Passagier filmt UFO vanuit vliegtuig - HLN
Bron:The Post Online
videoEen Welshman die even door het raam gluurde tijdens zijn terugvlucht van Griekenland merkte een vreemd voorwerp op. Hij zag sterke lichten en legde het verschijnsel vast met zijn smartphone. De man die anoniem wil blijven, zag naar eigen zeggen, nooit eerder in zijn leven zo'n felle lichten.
De 29-jarige uit Cardiff merkte het verschijnsel zo'n twintig minuten voor de landing op toen hij even naar buiten keek. "De lichten waren misschien een paar kilometer verwijderd van het vliegtuig. Het was verder pikkedonker, dus het is lastig te zeggen wat het precies was. De lampen waren heel erg fel, ik heb denk ik nog nooit zo'n fel licht gezien in mijn leven. Het was behoorlijk raar. Ik heb echt geen idee wat het is."
MH370 Eerst het slechte nieuws: van de op 8 maart verdwenen Boeing van vlucht MH370 van Malaysia Airlines is er nog steeds geen spoor. Maar de sonar-, radar- en satellietgegevens die het voorbije halfjaar zijn verzameld, hebben wetenschappers wel een berg nieuwe kennis van de Indische Oceaan bezorgd.
Op 22 september zal de zoektocht naar de verdwenen Boeing hervatten. 60.000 tot 70.000 vierkante kilometer bodem van het zuidelijke deel van de Indische Oceaan zal meter per meter onderzocht worden met geavanceerde apparatuur. Dat zal een enorme bijdrage betekenen voor de gegevens waarover de onderzoekers nu al beschikken.
"Het is zeer uitzonderlijk dat zo'n groot gebied onderzocht wordt, en zeker omdat het zo ver van de Australische kust ligt", vertelde dr Stuart Minchin van Geoscience Australia aan Discovery News.
Zoektochten met vliegtuigen, schepen en een geavanceerde onderwaterrobot leverden tot nu toe nog geen fysieke sporen van het verdwenen vliegtuig op. "Maar we vonden wel al zeebergen en vulkanen die nooit eerder in kaart gebracht zijn", zegt Minchin.
Tsunami's En dat is meer dan een louter wetenschappelijke meevaller. Die nieuwe kennis kan van groot belang zijn bij het voorspellen van zeestromen en tsunami's. Bovendien kan ze een beter begrip opleveren van het ontstaan van de continenten.
"Wetenschappers over de hele wereld zullen bijzonder geïnteresseerd zijn in deze informatie over een vrij onbekend deel van de oceaan", voorspelt Minchin. Geoscience Australia belooft dan ook alle gegevens wereldkundig te maken na afloop van de zoektocht naar de MH370.
Of die zoektocht ook nog een spoor van het vliegtuig zal opleveren, is heel onzeker. Verwacht wordt dat de operatie nog een jaar kan duren, mogelijk zonder resultaat.
Een heldere vuurbal die eerder deze maand in de hemel boven de Verenigde Staten voorbij 'flitste', was "zeer waarschijnlijk" een onderdeel van een Russische spionagesatelliet. Dat melden experts aan persbureau AP.
Boven het Rocky Mountains-gebied in de VS was te zien hoe het heldere object uiteenviel en langzaam richting het noorden bewoog. Tientallen inwoners van New Mexico tot Montana maakten een melding van de ongebruikelijke waarneming, die 's avonds op 2 september te zien was in de lucht. Ooggetuigen omschreven het verschijnsel als drie "stenen met gloeiende rode en oranje strepen". "Ze waren kleurrijk en snel, ik heb nog nooit zoiets gezien."
Ging het daadwerkelijk om een meteoriet of een ander hemellichaam? Nee, zeggen experts. "Een meteoriet zou veel te snel opgebrand zijn om vanuit zo"n breed gebied gespot te worden", legt Mike Hankey van de American Meteor Society uit aan AP.
Het was waarschijnlijk een onderdeel van een Russische verkenningssatelliet, die afgelopen mei gelanceerd werd, vertelt Charles Vick, een veiligheidsexpert bij militaire denktank GlobalSecurity.org. Deze satelliet is ontworpen om foto's te nemen en terug naar aarde te sturen.
"Oogje in het zeil" Volgens John Pike, directeur van GlobalSecurity.org, wil Rusland "vliegtuigen, schepen, tanks, fabrieken, nieuwe voorzieningen van de inlichtingendienst, en dat soort dingen in de gaten houden". De satellieten zijn op zoek naar doelen voor nucleaire wapens, aldus Pike. "Ze zijn naar dezelfde dingen op zoek als onze spionagesatellieten."
Volgens Rusland is er echter niks aan de hand. "Onze satellieten functioneren naar behoren", laat Igor Konashenkov, woordvoerder van het Russische ministerie van Defensie, weten. "Men kan slechts gissen naar de gesteldheid van de vertegenwoordigers van die zogenaamde American Meteor Society toen zij een lichtgevend fenomeen identificeerden als een Russische militaire satelliet."
Geschat wordt dat er momenteel 98 spionagesatellieten in de ruimte zijn, gelanceerd door minstens zes landen, zegt Jonathan McDowell, een astronoom aan het Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. 37 daarvan zijn afkomstig van de VS, 30 van China, en slechts 3 van Rusland. "Het grootste deel van die satellieten is oud, en waarschijnlijk de helft is momenteel actief."
This spectacular video, was recorded in Russia a few months ago, concerns the sighting of a mysterious ball of light chasing a train along the way between Nizhniy Novgorod, Izhevsk.
Meticulous Visual Recreation Of Moon Landing Shows It Wasn’t A Hoax
Graphics giant Nvidia has used its latest GPU to debunk several common Apollo hoax arguments.
Well known for its range of high performance computer graphics cards, Nvidia has demonstrated its latest dynamic lighting technology by recreating the site of the famous Apollo 11 moon landing in an effort to prove that the event really happened.
In particular the company has focused on producing an accurate recreation of a well known photograph taken by Neil Armstrong showing Buzz Aldrin descending the steps of the lander while the area around him is engulfed in shadow.
Conspiracy theorists have long argued that this particular image is evidence that the landings were hoaxed because Aldrin, despite being within the shadowed area, is somehow brightly lit, indicating that there must have been some other light source situated nearby.
“We talked to a lot of experts in the field to re-create what happened on the moon that day,” said GeForce general manager Scott Herkelman. “We re-created perfectly what they made and how the reflection would look off the suits, duct tape [and] aluminum foil.”
By recreating the scene the team was able to demonstrate that Aldrin was actually being lit by sunlight that was bouncing off the surrounding lunar surface. “The sun is hitting the dust, and it’s illuminating the backside of the Apollo module and astronaut,” said Herkelman. Read more at io9
On Tuesday 22nd April 2008 I appeared on BBC London Radio with JoAnne Goode and Paul Ross to discuss mystery big cats around London, so what better way to celebrate reaching the fiftieth Saturday Strangeness installment than with another ‘big cat’ tale from the capital…
In the March of 1994 there were reports that a lioness was on the loose in North London and had been sighted by a Linda Bostock in broad daylight, who described the felid as having, “…short golden hair and big padded paws.” Of course, the elusive cat never showed up despite calls flooding in to the local police switchboard – echoing reports from 20th January in the same year around the Northolt area of West London, where sightings of a puma-like cat took place near the station. A Robert Delane claimed the animal, “…was three-feet tall and four-feet long with a velvety biscuit-coloured coat.”
Back at Winchmore Hill, residents jammed the police board with several sightings of the giant cat, which matched the same description of the Northolt prowler. More than thirty police officers swarmed upon the area and created more panic than what it was worth, as they paraded through the streets with megaphones warning parents to keep their children inside. Pets were also deemed at risk and pupils at the local schools were not allowed home until the matter was cleared up.
Of course, no lioness, or even a puma turned up. Despite a helicopter whirring in the skies over Palmers Green and marksmen from London Zoo lurking in the bushes with tranquiliser guns, the only thing that reared its head was the occasional domestic cat and a bull mastiff. There never was a lioness on the roam, but there most likely had been a puma, in fact there had been one for more than forty years, or certainly generations spawned from the original Surrey ‘puma’ which made its name in the ’50s and ’60s.
All the beast of Winchmore Hill did was prove how inadequte police investigations continue to be with regards to cat-flaps concerning mystery felids, and leaves us asking the question – who is the bigger threat, the puma or the police? – Londonist
The 1st house built in Bethlehem, PA was constructed on this site in 1741, to be later replaced by the Eagle Hotel in 1823. In 1922, Charles Schwab, president of Bethlehem Steel, decided he wanted more modern digs to live in and the Hotel Bethlehem was born. It even had running water!
But it came with more than hot and cold water. Over the years, people have reported being tapped on the shoulder by the unseen, bodiless voices have called out employee’s names, there are reported cold spots, and even sightings of unplugged vacuum cleaners gliding across the rugs (we wish we had one of those haunting our carpets!)
The Bethlehem was built over the site of the old Eagle Hotel, which was demolished to clear land. The bricks and mortar may be gone, but the Eagle’s legacy lingers; the guests and staff seem to have found a permanent home in its replacement building.
The oldest spook is Mrs. Brong, the wife of an innkeeper dating back to the Eagle Hotel days. She’s been spotted in the kitchen and the restaurant. They know it’s her because she’s barefoot, just as she liked to be in her flesh and blood days.
One famous spook that never checked out is that of actress and songbird of the 1890s, May Yohe. She grew up in the hotel that her grandfather once owned, and has been reported on the third floor gazing out a window, singing, playing the piano in the lobby, and in the exercise room reliving her childhood.
Francis “Daddy” Thomas, who lived in the hotel during colonial times, is another ghost that likes to play pranks on the staff in the boiler room. In fact, one engineer refuses to work in the area.But he’s a friendly guy who used to be early Bethlehem’s welcome wagon to visitors.
There’s also a woman dressed in Victorian garb that appears in the kitchen and floats out to the dining room, only to disappear. Ghosts of children have been reported playing throughout the Hotel, and another has been seen on the mezzanine – maybe a young May Yohe?
Some guests have requested room transfers because of the spectral shenanigans in the building. In room 932, for example, a couple saw a spook standing by the bed in his boxer shorts and undershirt. Another time, guests saw a man at their bed, and he wanted to know what they were doing in his room. EVPs recorded the voice of a spirit named Mary. Paranormal phenomena is commonplace; we particularly like the wallpaper changing color.
One set of potential spirits they won’t discuss is that of the five elderly guests who died in a fire there in 1989, caused by a faulty iron cord. – Reader Submission
Amid the search for technical explanations for the Thai Airways International (THAI) landing mishap at Suvarnabhumi airport, public curiosity has been stoked by a passenger’ s account suggesting divine intervention aided the emergency operation
A passenger claimed to the host of a radio programme to have spotted a woman thought to be a cabin crew member in a traditional outfit helping evacuate people from the A330-300 aircraft, which veered off the runway on Sunday night after arriving from China.
A traditional outfit is worn by female cabin crew during flight, but they typically switch to the airline’s skirt and blouse uniform before landing A THAI source said the passenger’ s story has bewildered airline executives and crew particularly those on board Flight 679.
The crew insisted none among them were wearing the traditional outfit when the accident took place The source said the passenger may have seen a guardian angel who “stepped in” to help.
An Airports of Thailand (AoT) source said some airport fire brigade and emergency response personnel claimed to have seen a woman in traditional spirit house dress shuffling into and out of their office, causing crackling in their radio transmissions.
The AoT source said Suvarnabhumi has seven spirit houses at the airport to ward off ill fortune
The first one is Sarn Thepparak, erected before the airport was inaugurated in 2006.
AoT former president Chotesak Artpawiriya said technical glitches and accidents at the airport persisted despite the presence of the spirit house He later ordered six more to be constructed
He recalled an incident in which a bomb disposal expert at the airport exhibited signs of being possessed by a deity The man said he was a wandering spirit called Phor Kae Ming who needed a home.
The last spirit house was constructed to be a dwelling place for the wandering spirit – Hungzai

Who is Theresa Janette Thurmond Morris? We are who we have been waiting for when it comes to alien contact. I am TJ Morris ET Contactee. The saying, “Don’t Shoot the Messenger” always comes to mind when I begin writing to those on the planet. So what in the world is alien contact? Is it me? Making life happen on a regular daily basis is important to me and others I know who do not live on this planet. Because I was chosen to raise awareness of consciousness about those above does this make me different? Am I so different than you? What in the world is alien contact?
Some who follow the archives kept by Dirk Vander Ploeg in his UFO Digest may know a small amount of my back story but I have never ever told the entire biography for a reason. You can probably figure the reason out without me sharing that part of me. However, each person’s truth is forever changing just like the one thing that remains constant in the universe is change. Now change is going to take on a whole new meaning for most humanoid sentient intelligent beings. For those who have not experienced their veil being lifted in this lifetime, it may not again in this lifetime. But, you may learn that for many it has already lifted and these beings are called “Awake to the shift that occurred on 12-21-12 for the Starseeds.” Oh I recognize that many people do not understand the logos and language and metaphors.
Epistemology is now a major part of being for truthseekers and those we call lightworkers. The communication of our truth is based on our own personal experiences and how they enhance the overall life forms on this planet. At one time those entities who are like us now had no ears to hear, and no tongue to speak. The fact that life is every changing and our truth and history is as well is what the future of Ascension Age is all about. The message about what in the world is alien contact will deal with those with whom I have come in contact with in what we call the alien world of contact. There are those who have agreed in some energy waves of essence that are here to support the change on the planet for all humanoid sentient intelligent beings. Change is good but not everyone who is alive on this planet thinks so. There are many who are scared of change. Those who have something to lose may be controlled with fear. Therefore, they may not want the change that is happening about alien contact.
The main change which is occurring about the fact that “Alien Civilizations Exist” has been a part of our back story for all humanoid sentient intelligent beings. We are not from here since we have souls. We are just visiting this planet. Those who come together in what we call dimensions, levels, realms, and waves do so by freewill and choice. Freedom and justice is what we desire no matter where we are among others of our kind. Also, we choose to be among our kind as we do not like to be lonely. We have developed a kindred spirit keeper in all of us that allows us to know of each other no matter how alone we feel. Feeling is an emotion that is instilled in all humanoids as sentient intelligent beings. The message I was sent here to share as my mission and even in some part as a soul purpose is about communication. Communication of what is good and right for the entire universe and even beyond regarding the “Cosmos Beings”.
Cosmos Beings have allowed us to share communication among ourselves in order to not be alone in this vast universe when it comes to what we now relate to as words. “In the beginning was the word and the word was without form.” This is about as far back in what humans call time. Humankind has been allowed to understand elements of all there is in what we now call theories or suspicions regarding the energy we term imaginations. Many great thinkers including Albert Einstein knew the importance of imagination. Look up all those in this lifetime who have been what we call “Game Changers”. I am one of those and it is a calling and election made sure in the other dimensions, levels, realms, and universes that recognize what we are and who we will become.
Alien contact comes in many forms and to the chosen we grasp for words to fit into the minds of those who are here on this planet to learn to exist, grow, live, and thrive in this biological environment. There is a nature’s God that those who came before allowed for us all to relate too. The universal laws and the principles of life allow for us all to recognize gender in all lifeforms. Some of us are self-aware. We are those called SIB. SIB is the acronym for sentient intelligent beings. Alien contact in this world is simply about awareness that alien civilizations exist and that we are all a part of this world about alien contact.
The big picture that everyone seeks as a microcosm inside this macrocosm is to increase their awareness of what it means to be loved. We all want to be recognized and validated as existing. Those who are SIBS who are in this life form as humanoids who will continue to grow and maintain sustainability will learn who they can define as those who are loved and will emulate that emotional bond to others of their own species. This is a natural affinity for the truth to belong to something much greater than one’s own self. Self is to be acquired as that which we all can relate too in one form or another called life forms from another place in space and in time. Welcome alien contact and embrace it in this world. The truth is out there and something wonderful is happening. I know because I am an ET Contactee. More later…TJ (Note-Exclusive for our ET friends of TJ Morris ET Contactee)

Fernándo Távara of the MUFON Perú organization analyzed the original image of an Unidentified Flying Object photographed over San Francisco de Bellocq, which appeared in La Voz del Pueblo newspaper last Wednesday. Andres Stessens, the photographer, is an aide to municipal delegate Gerardo Chedrese. Távara further references a second figure that is also visible, but less clearly so.
“I have dismissed the cause being a photography error, lens stains or birds,” notes the specialist.
He further points out: “I cannot associate the aero-anomalous objects with known artifacts or craft (airplanes, helicopters, drones). Moreover, the main object appears to be considerably large, with regard to distance.”
In closing, he insisted that after “analyzing the image with various photography software packages I can see that it has not been edited, and the date on which it was taken coincides with the one manifested by the witness.”
Based on the study of these characteristics, he said: “I can catalogue this case as a UFO due to the fact that no natural or logical cause can be found to explain this event (suggestions from other researchers or witnesses are welcome).”
[NOTE: The Exploración Ovni website, which features the analysis, adds that “the original photographer was not available for comment despite repeated attempts at contacting him over the course of four days.” – SC]

(N.Morgan) It is well known that Adolf Hitler loved to experiment in all sorts of technologies, from the medical experiments to war weaponry. Could it be possible in all of that research that the Nazi’s made UFOs? Did Hitler’s mad scientists figure out an alternative way to travel and cause fear? Over the years investigations have revealed that Nazi engineers were working on disc shaped craft, vertical take off and advanced propulsion systems.
After World War 2, the U.S. military secretly took the designs back to the states along with thousands of German scientists and engineers. Two years later in 1947 the first wave of UFO sightings occurs across the United States and then around the world. Could UFO’s be secret U.S. aircraft developed from captured German designs?
Het mysterie van de vreemde spiraalvorm in het Engelse landschap
Het mysterie van de vreemde spiraalvorm in het Engelse landschap
het Engelse district Coventry is een vreemd patroon gevonden in het landschap. Een historicus stuitte op de spiraalvorm toen hij aan de hand van satellietkaarten onderzoek deed naar de beruchte Orde van de Tempeliers, die 1000 jaar geleden Temple Balsall oprichtten vlak bij het dorp Balsall Common.
Het patroon, dat ongeveer 30 meter groot is, bevindt zich opmerkelijk genoeg op slechts een paar honderd meter van de plek waar in 2011 een grote graancirkel is verschenen.
De onderzoeker, Chris McCauley, zei: “Ik zocht naar Temple Balsall in een poging de zaal van de Orde van de Tempeliers te vinden. Ik keek naar de kaart en zag iets opvallends in het landschap; het leek een soort spiraal te zijn.”
Hij ging op internet op zoek naar meer informatie, maar kon alleen een artikel vinden over een graancirkel die in augustus 2011 op enkele honderden meters van de spiraalvorm was verschenen.
De graancirkel uit 2011 (Steve Alexander)
De graancirkel bestond uit een acht- en zestienpuntige ster rond een centrale zon, die werd omringd door piramides en ovaalvormige ‘helmen’. Velen dachten dat de formatie een religieuze, spirituele of wetenschappelijke betekenis had. Men wees op overeenkomsten tussen de cirkel en het Kruis van Johannes, een lotusbloem en een kompasroos.
Onderzoekers zeiden dat mensen niet in het weiland in de buurt van een oude vliegbasis mochten komen en dat berichten op internet over de cirkel op mysterieuze wijze waren verwijderd.
“Omdat ik verder geen gegevens heb kunnen vinden over dit patroon, ga ik ervan uit dat het een onontdekte archeologische vindplaats is,” aldus McCauley.

He has taken a comprehensive global and historical perspective on the Ufological landscape. He has also participated in Native American rituals and ceremonies, gaining valuable insights and information from his interactions with these wisdom keepers. Brent is able to make revealing comparisons between the interrelated experiences and disciplines of parapsychology, shamanism, Jungian archetypes and ufology.
Someone has found a five-mile-wide black disc hovering over the ocean in a NASA photograph.
A blog somehow able to deliver ‘MIND BLOWING!’ content on the greatest conspiracies in human history once every 24 hours, published news of the find on Thursday.
The disc was discovered in a picture taken November 2013, the original (much darker) version of which is still available on NASA’s website.
The website says that while the UFO appears to be above the ocean, it’s actually hiding underneath it – though not very well, clearly.
And the pic of interest itself:
“This shows a massive stealth black disk over the ocean. The dimensions are almost perfect. Streetcap1 of Youtube found this one and I have to say its beyond words. This UFO looks to be more than 5-7 miles across. Since it is over the ocean area, the only place that it could hide without being noticed is below the ocean.”
They also published the video analysis of the image, which we’ve embedded above.
Needless to say there are numerous other possibilities here, including camera glitches, gaps missed by the process of stitching together smaller images to make a large enough one to publish, and interference.
Either way there is no evidence of five-mile-wide stuff hiding under the ocean. Unless you include Atlantis. Which is also not true.

Cronkite was the face of CBS News from 1962 to 1981, when stories ranged from the John F. Kennedy assassination to the Iranian hostage crisis.

According to UFO researcher Bill Knell (more on him below), in the 1950s Cronkite was part of a pool of news reporters brought out to a small South Pacific island to watch the test of a new Air Force missile…a large disc-type UFO appeared on the scene. Cronkite guessed that the object was about 50-60 feet in diameter, a dull grey color and had no visible means of propulsion. As Air Force guards ran toward the UFO with their dogs, the disc hovered about 30 feet off of the ground.
Bill Knell’s claim: In the 1950s Cronkite was part of a pool of News Reporters brought out to a small South Pacific island to watch the test of a new Air Force missile. After a short inspection of the new system by the reporters, they were lead to an area that was a safe distance from the launch site. The missile was mounted on a specially-built launcher that was attached to a cement base. It was obvious that the area had been quickly built just for the test. The details about the missile were going to be given to the reporters in he form of hand-out sheets and press releases after the test.
Cronkite mentioned that he and the other reporters had been warned that photography of the missile test and any audio transmissions or recordings by the press were forbidden. They would have to give a written account of the event. Just as the test was ready to proceed, everyone was writing as fast as they could. As Air Force Security personnel walked around the perimeter of the test area with guard dogs and the news reporters watched, the missile was fired-up and about to be released. Just then, a large disc-type UFO appeared on the scene.
Cronkite guessed that the object was about 50-60 feet in diameter, a dull grey color and had no visible means of propulsion. Because the noise of activity around him and the missile engine was so loud, he couldn’t tell whether the disc made any noise. He did not notice any coming directly from the object.
As Air Force guards ran toward the UFO with their dogs, the disc hovered about 30 feet off of the ground. It suddenly sent out a blue beam of light which struck the missile, a guard and a dog all at the same time. The missile was frozen in mid-air about 70 feet from the launcher as it had taken off. A guard was frozen in mid-step and a dog frozen in mid-air as it had jumped at the disc. Cronkite reminded me that this all happened within the space of about five minutes or less.
Suddenly, the missile exploded! After that, the disc vanished. The guard and dog looked alright, but were quickly taken away by medical personnel always present at tests in case anyone became injured. At the same time, guards rapidly ushered the reporters into a concrete observation bunker. After about thirty minutes of sitting in that hot box, they were brought out into the air again and addressed by an Air Force Colonel.
The officer told them, “It was all part of the test.” Obviously making it up as he went along, the Colonel said that the event was “staged” to test media reaction to UFOs. He reinforced the usual line to the reporters that Flying Saucers were probably not extra-terrestrial, but what people were actually seeing was secret planes being tested by the Air Force. This test was designed to show the media how “shocking” it could be to suddenly view a new technology. Well, Cronkite was certain that what he viewed was a new technology, but he was also sure it was not an Earthly one! He didn’t believe the Air Force explanation then, and he still didn’t believe it at the time when he told me the story.
After the event, reporters were told that since it was a test of media reaction to new technology, they could not report on it! But, they would be compensated later with exclusive stories on new Air Force projects (a promise that was never kept). Being as private as he was, Cronkite never did share with me his own beliefs about UFOs beyond the story he told me. I was so happy to have heard the story that I was afraid to ask anything further!
The CBS UFO Special was filmed shortly after my meeting with Cronkite and I was included in it for just a few minutes. During the filming, I became aware that Cronkite had not shared his story with most of the other UFO investigators or witnesses. After the special aired I called one of Cronkite’s staff members and asked him if he had ever heard the UFO story. He told me he had. Cronkite had only shared it with a few key people and it was NOT covered or even mentioned in the Special.
I wondered why Cronkite had chosen to tell me the story without telling everyone? The staff members told me that most of the others were so busy telling him about themselves that he just never bothered. I guess that the greatest lesson the legendary newsman taught me that day was the art of conversation, knowing when to talk and when to listen! – Bill Knell – 4/6/2006
I originally wrote the Cronkite article in 1998 for my website, but I thought readers at Paranormal News might enjoy it as well. I met Cronkite in 1973 (as the article indicates) and that’s when he told me the story.
I have repeated the story ever since during many of my seminars and found that a few others had heard the story too. Most of them had heard it second hand or said that they had read it somewhere. At the time it happened, some of his staff knew about it, so I assumed it wasn’t really a big secret. He didn’t tell it to me in confidence, so I felt no obligation to keep it a secret. Since publications come and go and people have short memories for news, it’s possible that Cronkite had once shared it in some long-forgotten interview. But I have never seen it in print.
I feel that Cronkite’s account of what happened is very credible. He seemed to be telling me the story from an honest memory of the event. When we conversed, he was very interested in the Air Force cover-up. I suspect that if he had more control over the 1973 documentary, he would have angled it in that direction. Instead, it was pretty much a neutral piece designed for ratings (from my memory). Although I have contacted CBS many times, they finally told me that any tape or film the UFO Special was on no longer exists and was probably lost in the shuffle of the news craziness surrounding Watergate (which broke big around that time).
Like many important stories, this one has been around awhile, but I think alot of people in the UFO and Paranormal research community probably were too busy chasing false starts created by government disinformation to cover it. I recall that when everyone was running to Gulf Breeze in the late 80′s and early 90′s, I revealed a story regarding a trip by former general Doolittle (the leader of the famous bombing raid on Japan during the early part of WWII) to Spitzbergen and his possible connection to the recovery of a UFO. He was there in 1946 and may have obtained a UFO that crashed on the island during the war. I had met some sailors from the USS Alabama in the late 80′s who said the object was brought back to the USA on the battleship Alabama. I started telling this story in my seminars as early as 1990, but noticed that the ABOUT.com UFO page attributes it to some 1950s or 60′s article by someone I had never heard of?
I also noticed that some of the MUFON people credited my original recording of the first radio interview given by Kenneth Arnold less then 12 hours after his 1947 sighting to some guy named Mike. I received that recording from a radio guy who had the original interview in the 70′s and have been playing it in my seminars ever since. I assume that Mike lifted it off one of my audio or video sets and sent it to whoever at MUFON. No problem, just an illustration of how stuff is out there is you take some time to look at some of us little guys who aren’t Richard, Budd or Whitley.
Here’s one more. In 1987 I met a guy that had worked with Jesse Marcel. He told me that some of the material shown in texas that was supposed to be from the weather balloon wreckage was actually from the real object. It was some of the lighter colored, small pieces laying on top of the balloon wreckage at the bottom of the press conference photos. I told that story to Friedman and others who laughed at it. Now I see that photo examination has revealed it to be true. But that didn’t surprise me. I was amused to find out that most people in the UFO community didn’t know that when THE ROSWELL INCIDENT was first published, Bill Moore still had never actually visited or set foot in Roswell! He wrote the book from all of Friedman’s notes and by witness interviews over the phone. Moore finally went to the place later.
Finally, I doubt that Cronkite kept the story a secret. Some of his staff knew about it and a few others I’ve met through the years. When he told it to me, he did it as calmly as someone reporting the weather. I think he just likes being in the driver’s seat when it comes to his own life and experiences and might have even been a bit embarrassed by it all. Maybe he was just caught up in the moment and felt like getting it off his chest.
Actually, I was the only UFO researcher there who didn’t have anything to promote. I was a teen with a mimeographed UFO newsletter who got invited to speak at local libraries and Kiwanis Clubs. I think he might have told the story to the others as well, but most of them were very busy blowing their own horns and promoting their stuff. Look at the depths to which I’ve sunk since then. Now I’m blowing MY own horn!
In case you’re wondering about it, I tried getting a few more details out of Cronkite regarding the actual location of the test, but he told me that the reporters were brought to the location without being told exactly where it was. Secrecy regarding the actual location was a part of the conditions for being able to witness the test. I decided not to push the point or question him further. – Bill Knell – UFO Researcher

A new biography of Walter Cronkite reveals the less trustworthy side of the most trusted man in America.
The CBS anchor is remembered as a media giant who gruffly championed hard-hitting journalism. This is a mostly justifiable assessment. But some unscrupulous actions outlined in the book muddy his otherwise almost spotless reputation, and make clear how much the media has changed.
For starters, he had no problem accepting freebies. These weren’t occasional drinks, but flights to remote and luxurious vacation spots around he world for him and his friends and family, courtesy of now-defunct airline Pan Am.
News organizations today place heavy restrictions on the amount of gifts their journalists can receive, if any. This is done in order to protect the organizations’ neutrality. For example, The New York Times’ company policy states:
Staff members and those on assignment for us may not accept anything that could be construed as a payment for favorable coverage or for avoiding unfavorable coverage. They may not accept gifts, tickets, discounts, reimbursements or other benefits from individuals or organizations covered (or likely to be covered) by their newsroom.
An article in The Daily Beast relates Cronkite’s other shenanigans, which included dining with a go-go dancer and bugging a committee room at a GOP convention. The piece questions how Cronkite’s more private affairs would have been perceived in the era of Internet tabloids:
Looking back, Cronkite’s virtual immunity as a public figure is troubling. But I see an upside as well: he wielded his enormous clout on behalf of muscular journalism. As Vietnam and Watergate eroded public confidence in government, Cronkite emerged as a new kind of authority figure, his public image unsullied by the grime of politics. What a stunning contrast to the corrosive distrust of the news business today. – THP
A group of Russian enthusiasts says they have new evidence of the existence of a Russian bigfoot — and it was found just outside of Moscow.
On a table inside the capital’s illustrious State Darwin Museum last month, surrounded by glass cases containing beetles and moths, lies the purported proof: a fragment of tree bark that appears to have been marked by a large primate.
The bark sample was taken by Andrei Stroganov, a biophysical technologist at Moscow’s Agricultural Academy, from an uprooted two-meter-long tree trunk that he says had been planted in the earth and marked with horizontal scratches. Stroganov found the curiosity in July in a forested area near a railway line in the Solnechnogorsk district — just five kilometers from the Moscow satellite town of Zelenograd — while scouring the forests for signs of the Almas, as the Russian bigfoot is known, after hearing reports that such a creature had been spotted in the area.
“The Almas is cosmopolitan,” jokes Stroganov in response to an expression of alarm at its apparent proximity to the capital.
“I am not worried: They are benevolent and need our protection.”
Igor Burtsev, an athletic septuagenarian who has become Russia’s most vocal publicist for Almas research and is also present in the Darwin Museum, concurs. He calls the as yet mythical creatures “Forest People” and sees them as a hybrid species, half-human and half-something unknown.
Stroganov has placed the tree bark behind Perspex glass, over which he has drawn measurements. He thinks the marks resemble a paw print measuring nine inches across. There are no thumb marks, nor are there the claw marks of a bear.
Stroganov takes swabs of the bark prints and, with Burtsev videoing the proceedings, secures them in small plastic folders. They will air-mail these to Alabama in the U.S., where the Russian-born researcher Vladimir Yamschekov will do a morphological study of the traces and check out any DNA.
Burtsev heads a closed online Russian-speaking community of researchers and investigators that includes members in Ukraine and Kazakhstan. They all share the belief that the Almas announces its presence with stick structures.
Burtsev has just returned from a 1,730-kilometer journey to the city of Miass in the Urals region of Chelyabinsk, where he stayed with someone who claimed to have seen a Almas and be able to show just such signs of the creature’s habitats.
He was reluctant to discuss the details, saying only that he had seen “confirmation” of the Almas’ presence there.
“There is more information on this than when I started 50 years ago,” he said. “Then again, people have less time now and travel is more expensive. The bigfoot scene in America is bigger.”
Indeed, the quest for definitive proof of bigfoot, the towering man-like ape that reportedly walks on two legs and terrorizes loggers and campers in North America, has been well documented for decades. The search for his Russian counterpart is less well known.
The Soviet government set up a “Almas Commission” in 1958 to conduct field work on the matter after Everest mountaineers returned with tales of the yeti. The commission was short-lived, but areas like the Urals, Siberia’s Kemerovo region and the Caucasus became known as the stomping ground of the real-life Almas.
Burtsev, who lives with his daughter in a Moscow suburb, is waiting on a visa to visit America. There he will reconnect with bigfoot advocates such as Thom Cantrall and Randy Bisson, and hopes to generate interest in an English-language book he has written on the Kemerovo Almas.
Science joins the quest
Russia’s yeti-hunters have not only allies abroad, but also those who argue against the Almas’ existence.
Professor Bryan Sykes, a 67-year-old geneticist and fellow of Wolford College, Oxford, has written his own book debunking some purported evidence of the creature’s existence. Sykes previously helped identify the bones of the last of the Romanovs, Russia’s royal family murdered by the Bolsheviks in 1918. Now, in “The Yeti Enigma,” due out in September, he draws on the same expertise to look at alleged yeti evidence. He claims that all the 39 supposed yeti hairs and teeth samples that he tested came from ordinary animals. Sykes has also suggested that the Himalayan yeti is a species of polar bear.
Last October, Burtsev took on his nemesis in a TV series called “The Bigfoot Files” broadcast by the U.K.’s Channel 4.
The two men also clashed over a skull in Burtsev’s possession believed to have belonged to the son of a “wild woman” who had been held in captivity in Mongolia 150 years ago. After testing some samples, Sykes hypothesised that she might have been a black African slave, or a descendant of a group of people who migrated to Mongolia from Africa thousands of years ago. Burtsev insists that the skull’s shape is not that of an ordinary human.
Michael Trachtengerts, a colleague of Burtsev who also featured in the program, remains unswayed by Sykes’ arguments against the existence of the yeti.
“The samples he tested were doubtful,” he says over a recent lunch in a Moscow cafe. “Hairs from Siberia were identified as belonging to a North American brown bear! How is that possible?”
Trachtengerts, who has his own dual-language website on the Almas, remains optimistic that proof will soon be found. He is nearly 80.
Mission to America
While Burtsev waits for his U.S. visa, his collection of footprint casts — as well as the contentious skull — remain stashed away in a Moscow garage. Burtsev hopes to transfer them to a sanctuary in the form of the State Darwin Museum.
The museum has provided a haven for the Almas hunters since 1960. They gather there every month. This does not necessarily mean, however, that the museum officially believes in their cause.
“I specialize in birds, and haven’t looked into this problem,” says Vitaly Kontorshchikov, a staff member of the museum’s ecology department who was present at the bark examination.
“However, we can say nothing until we have some real bone samples. No bones — no science,” he said.
This leaves the usually garrulous Bourtsev silent. He merely offers a sphinx-like smile. – The Moscow Times
Tiny Implants Could Give Humans Self-Healing Superpowers
A new device developed by the Pentagon could give humans the ability to heal more rapidly.
A common trait among comic book superheroes is the ability to heal even the most grievous of wounds incredibly quickly, something that would seem to be completely impossible in real life.
A new military-sponsored research project however may be set to change all that through the development of a remarkable new device that can be implanted in to the body where it can both monitor and heal damage to internal organs.
“The technology DARPA plans to develop through the ElectRx program could fundamentally change the manner in which doctors diagnose, monitor and treat injury and illness,” said Doug Weber of DARPA’s biological technologies office.
The concept is based on the process known as neuromodulation which sees the body’s nervous system monitor internal organs and regulate the response to infection and disease. Sometimes when a person is injured this process can be thrown off, exacerbating their condition.
The new device would work by intervening in such an instance so that neuromodulation can be kept under control and the healing process can proceed as rapidly and efficiently as possible. Read more at Live Science
In folklore, the incubus and succubus are male and female demons said to prey on sleeping victim’s. Such beliefs have often been perceived as nothing more than vivid nightmares, or ‘night terrors’, usually involving a person who, whilst sleeping on their backs, appear to awake, but are unable to move. They sense a presence in the room, and often a shadowy entity, sometimes resembling a hag-like figure, is said to enter the room. This apparition is often said to sit on the chest of the victim, who in their dream-state, is unable to breathe. The event only dissipates once the witness is able to break from the nightmare and the crushing sensation subsides.
These kind of attacks are reasonably common, but sexual phantoms have been known to apply more severe attacks to victims. On the night 9th August 1980 a South London woman became the target for a predatory wraith. At first, as she undressed for bed, the unseen spectre would call her name, and then on occasion caress her through her clothes, and then her naked flesh. Bizarrely, the woman felt stimulated by the presence and unable to act any other way towards the invisible form.
However, the randy spook became more violent, pulling at the woman, ripping her clothes, taunting her and terrifying her. On one occasion the victim was unable to move, and felt several tongues all over her body, and a taunting voice and feeling of being held down. The next morning she found bruises and scratches over her body and although she visited the doctor he simply passed the incident off as hysteria. When the attacks persisted, the woman called in a priest who stated that an incubus had been present in the room. Whatever had visited the woman, it was not put off by the crucifix around her neck.
After several more night time attacks, the woman felt no longer afraid and gradually over time the assaults dissipated.
Author Peter Haining stated that the case, which was investigated by researcher Lee Allane, and published in Forum: The International Journal Of Human Relations, was “… probably the most authentic of spectral rape on record.”
Such disturbing aspects of the supernatural were brought to the big screen several decades ago in the American movie The Entity in which a female was regularly raped by a spectral assailant.
Although the realm of the supernatural has provided great entertainment over the years, from its classic origins of hauntings pertaining to eerie houses, clanking spirits, and headless phantoms, there has always been a more serious ingredient. Cases such as the above prove that there is an even darker corner of the unknown to which there is no explanation. – Londonist.com
An American journalist has revealed the homeland of vampires is Serbia, not Romania.
David Ono took a trip to Serbia and did a story that was widely accepted in Serbia this week.
The journalist based the story on locals in Serbia telling him that the first vampire was buried near the cemetery in the central village of Kisiljevo.
According to the same story, one of first official vampires was Petar Blagojevic. The journalist claims there was a document from 1725 saying Petar Blagojevic will stand up from the dead and chase people.
The journo concludes Romania is getting fame from vampires, but the homeland of vampires should be Serbia. – Romanian Times

Were the Maya visited by an extraterrestrial from the Pleiades named Quetzalcoatl? According to Maya legend, the Maya were visited by a robed Caucasian man with blondhair, blue eyes and a beard by the name of Quetzalcoatl, who taught the Maya about agriculture, medicine, mathematics and astronomy.
It is widely recognized that the Maya were the first civilization to use the number “0”.
Quetzalcoatl warned the Maya of another bearded white man who would not only conquer the indigenous people of Central America, but would also enforce a new religion upon them before he was to return. Despite the warning, the Maya mistakenly welcomed the invading Cortes as Quetzalcoatl.
According to the prophecies in the Book of Chilam Balam, the Maya were warned about the tyranny of a white-ruling culture but were also promised a return of glory when a new religion would bring the world back into harmony. Perhaps this is the basis of the New World Order’s desire for a one world religion- to take over something positive with a negative event?
Certainly, the Chilam Balam was not campaigning for Christianity, which killed tens of thousands of Maya and hundreds of millions of people globally in the name of the Christian “god”.
Why were the Maya presented with advanced information on science, mathematics and calendar systems?
Why did Quetzalcoatl promise his return and when will that be? Accordingly, one of the stars in the Pleiades is called, “Maia”. Is it possible that Quetzalcoatl is (or was) an extraterrestrial from Maia in the Pleiades?
The following is a synopsis of the many cultures who have the Quetzalcoatl archetype associated as a deity.
Hundreds of North and South American Indian and South Pacific legends tell of a white-skinned, bearded lord who traveled among the many tribes to bring peace about 2,000 years ago. This spiritual hero was best known as Quetzelcoatl. Some of his many other names were:
Kate-Zahl (Toltec) Kul-kul-kan (Maya) Tah-co-mah (NW America) Waicomak (Dakota) Wakea (Cheyenne, Hawaiian and Polynesian) Waikano (Orinoco) Hurakan the Mighty Mexico E-See-Co-Wah (Lord of Wind and Water) Chee-Zoos the Dawn God (Puan, Mississippi) Hea-Wah-Sah (Seneca), Taiowa, Ahunt Azoma E-See-Cotl (New Guinea) Itza-Matul (Yucatan) Zac-Mutul (Mayan) Wakon-Tah (Navajo) Wakona (Algonquin)
When he left the Toltecs and sailed away to the East, Kate-Zahl promised to return to them after several cycles of their calendar. He made a prophecy about the destiny of the sacred city Tula (now identified with Teotihuacan in Mexico) through two millennia.
Quetzalcoatl
The Toltecs would be conquered first by the Sacrificers of Men (the Aztecs), then by white-skinned, bearded men of the East carrying fatal “thunder-rods” – the Spaniards and their guns:
“Further off there is another invasion. In ships many bearded men are coming from across the Sunrise Ocean… I see these men taking the Broad Land…
They do not respect our trees of cedar. They are but hungry, unenlightened children…
“Would that I could speak to these bearded farmers. I have tried. They do not hear me. They go on their way like spoiled children…
“Stand with me in the Year of Te-Tac-patl. Look across the Sunrise Ocean. Three ships come like great birds flying. They land. Out come men in metal garments, carrying rods which speak with thunder and kill at a distance. These men are bearded and pale of feature.
“They come ashore and I see them kneeling. Above them I see a Great Cross standing. That is well. If these men are true to the symbol they carry, you need have no fear of them, for no one who is true to that symbol will ever carry it into battle.
Therefore hold aloft your Great Cross (T), and go forth to meet them. They cannot fail to know that symbol, and would not fire their rods upon it, nor upon those who stand in its shadow. Well they know that what is done to my people is done also to me.
When the years have come to their full binding, the metal-tipped boots of the strangers will be heard in all the bloody temples. Then throughout the Broad Land has begun the Third Cycle. As yet, I cannot see beyond it.
“Once I had great hope for these people, for I saw them kneel and kiss the sweet earth, and I saw the shadow of the Great Cross which they carried with them. Now I must warn you against them.
“Carry your great books into the jungles. Place your histories deeply in caverns where none of these men can find them. Nor do you bring them back to the sunlight until the War-Cycle is over. For these bearded strangers are the children of War. They speak my precepts, but their ears do not listen. They have but one love and that is for weapons. Ever more horrible are these weapons, until they reach for the one which is ultimate. Should they use that, there will be no forgiveness in that vale where there is no turning. Using such a weapon to make man over, is reaching into the heavens for the Godhead. These things are not for man’s decision, nor should man presume to think for all things, and thus mock the Almighty. Woe to those who do not listen! There are lamps beyond that which you are burning; roads beyond this which you are treading; worlds beyond the one you are seeing. Be humble before the might of the Great Hand which guides the stars within their places. There are many lodges within my Father’s Kingdom for it is more vast than time, and more eternal.
“Keep hidden your books, my children, all during the Cycle of Warring Strangers.
The day will come when they will be precious.
“For five full Cycles of the Dawn Star, the rule of the Warring Strangers will go on to greater and greater destruction. Hearken well to all I have taught you. Do not return to the Sacrificers. Their path leads to the last Destruction. Know that the end will come in five full cycles, for five, the difference between the Earth’s number and that of the Gleaming Dawn Star, is the number of these children of War. As a sign to you that the end is nearing, my Father’s Temple will be uncovered. Remember this in the days which are coming.”
In astronomy, the Pleiades, or Seven Sisters, is an open star cluster containing middle-aged hot B-type stars located in the constellation of Taurus. Distance to Earth is 424 light years Tula-Teotihuacan was found and excavated by archaeologists only in recent years. In another prophecy, Kate-Zahl described the city as it will be rebuilt in the future: “Then the heavens spoke in a crash of thunder, and the lightning flashed above the valley. The Man turned to look again on Tula, his most beloved city. Behold! It was naught but a mass of rubble.
“He wept there with great sorrow. He clung to the rocks, staring back toward Tula. Then the heavens roared again and shook the mountain. A flash of light struck beside Him and cracked the darkness. Behold! The old heaven and earth were vanished, and He looked into another cycle.
“The heavens parted and a rising sun shone down on another Tula. Plainly he could see the valley, but the city was one He knew not. Magnificent was this Golden Tula! >”The Man was lifted beyond the earth. No longer He saw the Age of Destruction. Gone was the horrible Age of Warfare. He was looking beyond the Age of Carnage!
“Walk with me through this Age of the Future. Tula shines in all its glory, but the metals are of types we know not. Loving hands have rebuilt the parkways, have paved the streets, have rebuilt the temples. There is a great building where books are kept for the scholars, and many are those who come to read them. Tula is a great Center of Culture.
“Come with me to the New Colula. Shining again is My Father’s Temple! Once more the city is filled with fountains and the parkways are wire-netted for the birds of rare plumage, and those who sing to enchant the listener. Cross through the parkway to My Father’s Temple. You will see again the inscriptions which today your eyes are seeing, but now all people can read them.
“Come to the city of the future. Here are the buildings unlike those we build, yet they have a breathless beauty. Here people dress in materials we know not, travel in manners beyond our knowledge, but more important than all these differences are the faces of the people. Gone is the shadow of fear and suffering, for man no longer sacrifices, and he has outgrown the wars of his childhood. Now he walks in full stature towards his destiny — into the Golden Age of Learning.
“Carry this vision on through the Ages, and remember Kate-Zahl, the Prophet.” In Book X of his History, the 16th century chronicler Fray Bernardino de Sahagun described the departure of the “wise men” who had been the attendant priests of Kate-Zahl at Teotihuacan:
A Newburgh, NY, witness reported videotaping a round UFO on a security DVR system, according to testimony in Case 59920 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness has four cameras set up outside for sky watching and data is analyzed the following day after all the footage is recorded using a Security DVR.
“On the evening of September 16, 2014, at approximately 9:08 p.m. EST, a round, circular object was seen on Camera 4 moving from the east to west directly overhead,” the witness stated.
“This lasted approximately 11 seconds.”
The witness described the object.
“The object was near or at cloud level, left no visible trail and had no navigation lights. The object was quite large and when it passed through or close to clouds, it created a round, tight ring around it. It seemed to be rotating due to the tight ring of clouds that surrounded it.”
The witness also mentioned one unusual characteristic of the object.
“It also seemed to be emitting some type of energy or particles as it traveled to the west. It made no sound and the camera lost the object after it moved out of view.”
The witness uploaded one video with the MUFON report, which was filed on September 19, 2014.
Newburgh is a city located in Orange County, New York, population 28,861. MUFON New York is investigating. New York has a current UFO Alert Rating of 3 with a high number of recent reports nationally. New York had 39 UFO reports in August 2014 – the 3rd highest reporting state – while California had 99 reports as the highest reporting state. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.
The UFO Alert Rating System is based on five levels – 1 through 5 – where states with 150 or more reports for the month are rated an Alert 1; states with 100 or more reports are rated an Alert 2; 25 reports or more for the month are rated an Alert 3; 13 or more reports are rated an Alert 4; and those states with less than 13 reports for the month are an Alert 5.
A Cameron, NC, witness reported watching a “bright, round” UFO hovering over a neighbor’s house that quickly shot off into the sky, according to September 19, 2014, testimony in Case 59917 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The witness had walked across the street from her home to talk with neighbors about 10:30 p.m. on September 10, 2014, when the object was first noticed.
The witness tried to get the neighbor’s to see the object, but the brightly lit UFO moved away too quickly. Pictured: Cameron, NC. (Credit: Google)
“I happened to look up at this tree and saw a bright, round-looking light out of nowhere,” the witness stated. “As soon as I seen it, it shot off in a straight path over the top of the neighbor’s house.”
The witness quickly began to yell at the neighbors asking if they had seen the object.
“I ran to the street to see if I could still see it, but it was gone – within 10 seconds. It looked as if it was maybe two feet above her house.”
None of the neighbors saw the object.
“I first thought it was a shooting star, but I have never, ever seen a shooting star that hovered at the tree top and then shot off over the top of a house.
The witness quickly ran into the street to try and see the object again, but it moved away too fast. Pictured: Cameron, NC. (Credit: Google)

SHINY ALIEN SPHERE SPOTTED NEAR FORT MONMOUTH JULY 1959 …………. FORT MONMOUTH NEW JERSEY
It was during the summer of 1959 on a working farm now known as Dorbrook Park. My family lived and my father worked on the farm at the time of the sighting. The physical location of this site is adjacent to the Naval Weapons Station, Earle road and rail that runs from the main location in Colts Neck to Belford. At the time of the sighting, my sister, myself, father and mother along with several other people were sitting outside enjoying the pleasant summer evening from the front yard of the house that we were living in. It was at this time that we all simultaneously noticed what appeared to be a large shiny, silver sphere due east of our location. The sphere was roughly following the direction of the Navy road, heading towards the main Ammunition storage facility located a couple of miles to the south of our location. The object was moving in a slow but deliberate manner at an altitude must have been from 300 to 500 feet. Its speed was probably 40 to 50 mph. The object was also displaying about 10 to 15 randomly blinking red and white lights. The majority of these lights seem to concentrate roughly around the longitudinal plane of the sphere and appeared to be separate from the craft itself. Each light seemed to blink at a rate of maybe once per second. It should be noted that the location of this farm now a county park is within 4 miles of Fort Monmouth Army Communications and Electronics Command where radar was developed along with a number of other initiatives critical to the National Defense.
Right after our sighting, my father ran to a phone and attempted to call Fort Monmouth however, he could not get through at that time. He did not try again therefore, our sighting was not reported to the best of my knowledge. The sighting lasted only a few minutes as the sphere disappeared behind some trees however, it can be safely assumed that its path did take it over the ammunition depot itself. Of course there have been rumors for years that the facility was used to store nuclear devices. In closing, years later I came across another witness observed what appears to be the same object however, he viewed it from the Navesink river on the River Plaza side. This location is also on a direct line towards Belford sight of the Pier where the ammunition ships are loaded and is approximately 4 miles from the farm where we observed the object.
(N.Morgan) The skies all over the world have been active with more UFO activity, than we’ve seen in recent years. This time, an incredible UFO fires up the skies over Cardiff. A plane passenger coming back from holiday was captivated by these strange hovering lights which he watched for several minutes from his plane window as his flight approached Cardiff. The 29-year old said: “We were flying from Greece to Cardiff. It was on Tuesday night and happened about 20 to 40 minutes before we arrived at 10pm.
Witness account: The lights could have been from a few miles away – it was pitch black outside, so it’s hard to say what it was. “It was quite weird. It was very bright, it was the brightest thing I’ve ever seen. I just realized how bright it was and said to my girlfriend ‘look at that!’ “I was staring at it for a while before I picked up my phone to film it, but it was there for about three or four minutes. “I thought it maybe could have been lanterns, but they didn’t go away, they kept flying til I couldn’t see them anymore. “I really have no idea what it could have been – it was just really, really bright. “UFO is a really broad term. That’s what it is, you know, an unidentified flying object.”
In the sparsely populated Adirondack north country of New York State, various campers and residents were treated to The Adirondack Formation of Lights.
8 August 2000, at about 10 p.m. Mabel was enjoying the clear night sky at their Adirondacks camp at Long Lake. Suddenly she saw a rectangular white light hovering in the valley between Buck Mountain and the island across from their position.
Mabel yelled to her adult son Tom to come see. Together they watched as more lights came on, hovered, went out, and then winked back on again. Mabel and her son called several local friends to come out and watch the lights.
Tom says that at one point they watched six lights wink on sequentially from left to right. Three lights were followed by another formation of six rectangular lights. Later the lights made a “V” formation of lights, hovering silently above the tree line.
Tom says that, “After about 45 minutes of watching these lights come and go, those watching were beginning to get a bit spooked and were becoming frightened.
Meanwhile, about 16 miles to the southeast of Long Lake in an encampment on Indian Lake, another group of campers were making similar observations.
Bill tells us, “It had been dark about an hour; we were sitting around the campfire talking.”
One of Bill’s friends called the group’s attention to eight bright lights in the western sky. At first the group of campers laughed the lights off as nothing special, probably just aircraft landing lights. The thing that made everyone realize that the lights “weren’t from around here” was the odd fact that they were just hanging there in the sky. Occasionally the lights disappeared, then reappeared somewhere else in the formation of lights. Naturally, the longer the sighting went on, various folks in that viewing party began getting frightened as well.
In a comment about the brightness of the lights, one of the campers remarked that the lights were as bright as a “welding arc.”
Finally after a long while, the formation of lights seemed to be getting fainter, suggesting that perhaps they were moving further west until they faded.
Bill says he later mentioned the sighting to an uncle who lives at Indian Lake. The uncle said that many other folks around the lake had seen the formation as well. They all wondered if perhaps it was all some kind of experiment the folks at Rome Air Force base were doing.
About 65 miles to the west in another lakeside camp in Redfield, NY. , Peggy was on the back porch when she saw a string of five to nine lights flying silently in a horizontal formation. She called to her husband Frank and the two watched the formation of lights in awe.
Peggy says that some of the bright lights seemed to be a bit amber while others were reddish.
“They were flying straight toward us when all of them turned abruptly…it was if they picked up speed because suddenly the lights were gone.”
Peggy and Frank tell us: we have lived in Redfield all of our lives, in 45 years they had never seen any regional 10th Mountain Division helicopters flying at night.

Gigantische gloeilampen Melkweg blijven groot raadsel
Gigantische gloeilampen Melkweg blijven groot raadsel
Met de Fermi-telescoop zijn in 2010 reusachtige bellen van energierijke gammastraling ontdekt boven en onder het centrum van de Melkweg. Ze hebben afmetingen van zo’n 30.000 lichtjaar. De gammastraling wordt vermoedelijk geproduceerd door de wisselwerking van fotonen (lichtdeeltjes) met zeer energierijke elektronen.
Vanaf de aarde gezien bestrijken de beide bellen meer dan de helft van de hemel, al zijn ze op zichtbare golflengten niet waarneembaar. De gammastraling die ze uitzenden, is veel energierijker dan de ‘mist’ van gammastraling waarvan het hele Melkwegstelsel doordrenkt is.
Wetenschappers van de Stanford-universiteit hebben de afgelopen vier jaar gegevens van de Fermi-telescoop en andere experimenten geanalyseerd, in een poging het mysterie van de bellen, die tienduizenden lichtjaren boven en onder ons sterrenstelsel uittorenen, te ontrafelen. Hun onderzoek is gepubliceerd in The Astrophysical Journal.
Vlak na de ontdekking van de bellen werd gedacht dat ze waren gecreëerd door gigantische waaiers van materiaal die afkomstig waren uit een supermassief zwart gat in het centrum van ons sterrenstelsel. Ook werd gedacht dat ze gevormd konden zijn door gigantische sterren die tegelijkertijd als supernova explodeerden.
“Er zijn verschillende modellen die ze verklaren, maar geen van de modellen is perfect,” zei hoofdonderzoeker Dmitri Malisjev. “De bellen zijn nogal mysterieus.”
De reusachtige bellen zijn duidelijk te onderscheiden. Hun omvang en scherpe begrenzing zijn een raadsel. Het is net alsof in het centrum van de Melkweg twee 30.000 lichtjaar grote gloeilampen zijn gedraaid.
De onderzoekers zeggen dat meer data nodig zijn om te kunnen bepalen waar de bellen precies vandaan komen. Ze willen graag bij het galactische centrum gaan inzoomen op de gloeilampen. De Fermi-telescoop blijft gegevens verzamelen, maar voor nu zijn er meer vragen dan antwoorden.
UFO 'Five Miles Wide' Caught Hovering Above The Ocean In NASA Photo
UFO 'Five Miles Wide' Caught Hovering Above The Ocean In NASA Photo
Brace yourselves for inanity.
Someone has found a five-mile-wide black disc hovering over the ocean in a NASA photograph.
Our friends at UFO Sightings Daily, a blog somehow able to deliver 'MIND BLOWING!' content on the greatest conspiracies in human history once every 24 hours, published news of the find on Thursday.
The disc was discovered in a picture taken November 2013, the original (much darker) version of which is still available on NASA's website.
The website says that while the UFO appears to be above the ocean, it's actually hiding underneath it - though not very well, clearly.
Here's a before and after (NASA pic on the left):
And the pic of interest itself:
"This shows a massive stealth black disk over the ocean. The dimensions are almost perfect. Streetcap1 of Youtube found this one and I have to say its beyond words. This UFO looks to be more than 5-7 miles across. Since it is over the ocean area, the only place that it could hide without being noticed is below the ocean."
They also published the video analysis of the image, which we've embedded above.
Needless to say there are numerous other possibilities here, including camera glitches, gaps missed by the process of stitching together smaller images to make a large enough one to publish, and interference.
Either way there is no evidence of five-mile-wide stuff hiding under the ocean. Unless you include Atlantis. Which is also not true.
(Phyllis, who lives in Ontario has seen overhead craft and has had "odd, vivid dreams"....)
Dear Paul,
Here's something......... This guy who lives across from me -Bruce- He's a retired burglary detective from OPD- I've known him now for almost 12 years- I tell you this to demonstrate that he is an intelligent, rational person- not someone given to imaginings or flights of fancy.
His skin reacts badly to the sun, and having worked at night for so many years, that's when he's usually awake. so he goes out late in the evenings and after dark to sit outside on a bench on the lawn- He called me night before last to ask me if I would join him there that night- there was something he wanted to show me. Since we frequently go back and forth to each others apts. for lunch, dinner or having a drink or smoke together while watching a movie- I knew he wasn't inviting me out there for what some may see as "obvious" reasons.
I hadn't been out there with him before, because as I've stated before- I don't particularly like going outside at night. Well anyway, he said that he had been noticing an interesting object in the sky off and on lately- last couple of months. At first he didn't think anything about it, since we live only ten minutes from Ontario's Intercontinental Airport- and see planes going back and forth day and night.
He began to notice a difference in this object, after a few times observing it in the night sky. He said that he began to notice a pattern to it's appearance- every couple of nights he would see it. Also the erratic flight pattern it seemed to exhibit. First of all, it was always way higher up than any of the planes flew- and consequently smaller in appearance- but emitting extremely bright oddly distributed light patterns.
As he began to regularly watch it, he noticed that it moved in stops and starts and a wide zigzagging pattern of flight- something he'd never seen a regular plane do. Once, when looking through his binoculars, he noticed a long thin stream of some sort of emission coming from it as it swept around the sky.
About 45 minutes or so after that , he started to feel a slight dizziness and tingling in his limbs and face- then a headache coming on- so he went back inside. Then he began to remember a couple of other times when this had occurred- he had felt fine- and would observe the UFO type object and later start to feel sick- nausea- headache so forth. At first he didn't connect it, when you get our age, you almost expect to have these afflictions come over you-from meds and all- you can usually find something to blame it on-
Having been in burglary investigation for over thirty years, Bruce is of a detail, clue oriented mind set- anything which seems strange or unusual, he'll automatically try to figure out why. he knows that this type of thing is of interest to me- so he wanted to see what I thought about it. Not having observed this object for a couple of nights, he assumed that true to schedule, it would show up that night. Well- it did! I saw it and noticed the strange flight pattern he had mentioned- it did seem to be extremely high up in the sky too- but the lights on it were so strong that they were still easily discernable even from that height.-they seemed to be in a triangular pattern too- not distributed in the same design as the planes..I suggested that it might be a good idea for us to go back inside before whatever it was dropping had time to reach us-- I wasn't anxious to experience the same symptoms he had experienced before.
We haven't definitely decided that we've seen a real UFO, but who knows...maybe we did- I have a feeling others have seen it too and wondered...I'm sure that it is being tracked by the airport radar- but they won't make anything public...Bruce says that they received hundreds of calls at the station from people all the time in Ontario about strange things they saw in the skies....especially around the airport, they were usually brushed off as another plane or something.... but that this object, upon close observation didn't resemble another airplane or weather balloon or anything like that, it probably is only noticeable at night, when the lights can be seen.
So...maybe I have seen a UFO.....and it does seem to be nearby...
Sincerely yours,
Phyllis
Dear Phyllis,
After the airport closes, perhaps after 1:00 A. M., these things in the sky stand out more.
They're capable of looking like airplane or just fuselages( beyond belief, the occupants are crafty enough to often attach motor 'sounds' broadcasts coming from it, to make it SOUND like an airplane to the casual observer) but their stop and start erratic changes in direction and their sheer high elevation, give them away as odd craft within a minute or two of closer observation.
The danger in studying these things, of looking up, is a jeopardy most profound; they can "feel" your psychic attention, focused, even from that distance.
They can and do climb down the ladder of your awe and your broadcasted curiosity, down from those extreme heights, right into your laps.
That's how highly psychic they and their technology make them; they're out 'fishing' for awe energy from anyone studying the skies.
Psychic waves of intent which burn with curiosity, reach far out to them and are read.
Such people who notice these objects also usually have buried dim memory stirrings of being onboard craft forgotten by "suggestion"; he may well have implants within him.
It's NEVER an 'accident when one with awe and curiosity sees craft overhead.
It's choreographed.
His nausea is evidence of that long distance psychic connection; nausea is a sign that they are communicating ( raw suggestion and very high EMF transmissions do cause such nausea) with his unconscious mind, below awareness.
Nausea is a reaction to any sinister psychic intrusion, any presence of evil, demonic intent sensed by one's soul-unconscious.
Nausea often prevails within 'sensitives' who are paranormal investigators when they are studying a badly haunted house and come across demonic beings.
Aliens, from that height, make "exchanges" to our unconscious, readily communicate with that part of our minds we are dimly aware of and cannot easily access.
These are the very same critters who take you when you're in deep REM and 'cloak' all recall of abductions and surgical techniques with vivid scenic realistic-like "dreams".
Those vivid strange dreams aren't dreams at all, but are always 'screen memories' ; now you can see how successful and sneaky they are in what they do.
Most people marched around a craft will awaken none the wiser.
Paul
Director of CIA, Admiral R.H. Hillenkoetter: "It is time for the truth to be brought out in open Congressional hearings. Behind the scenes, high-ranking Air Force officers are soberly concerned about UFOs. But through official secrecy and ridicule, citizens are led to believe the unknown flying objects are nonsense. To hide the facts, the Air Force has silenced its personnel." p. 58, quoted from New York Times, February 28, 1960, p. L30
Abductions and their remnant elusive memories have opened all this for Paul, a confirmed atheist, UNTIL Paul saw aliens float him out of his body, in his bed, at night.
Then, he knew that they were interested in an essence that he never suspected that he had, a nonphysical soul.
Our spiritual powers that interest and addict interdimensionals are the very powers that can be used to thwart further attacks.
They infect auras with attachments to themselves and ride the reincarnation roller coaster with human beings, as a sanctuary, to avoid the death that they fear and to steal the spiritual recycling that we have.
Souls are garnered, detoured from our natural spiritual evolution in Heaven.
These joyriding grays can be sinister, discorporate alien souls, stuck to our energies, who bring a new meaning to the concept of a silent invasion.
UFO sighting above Sydney, Australia on 11th September 2014
UFO sighting above Sydney, Australia on 11th September 2014
New interesting video footage of a UFO activity recorded in the sky above Sydney, Australia on 11th September 2014.
Witness said: hen I spotted the Chem trail this large object just come out from this cloud. The camera was used: Sony D C R-T R V.530. Digital camera with I R. 850 Optical filter fitted. Daylight capture! Super Night Shot position on.
An airplane passenger returning home from a vacation in Greece caught some strange lights on video while in the air on approach to Cardiff, Wales.
The sighting was reported by Wales Online. The video was apparently captured on the passenger’s cell phone late Tuesday night. The 29 year-old witness says his plane arrived in Cardiff at about 10 pm. He says the lights were very bright. In fact, he says, “it was the brightest thing I’ve ever seen.”

Although he observed the lights for a few minutes, he didn’t start recording until after watching the lights for a couple minutes. He then captured about a minute of video.

The witness told Wales Online: “We were flying from Greece to Cardiff. It was on Tuesday night and happened about 20 to 40 minutes before we arrived at 10pm.
“The lights could have been from a few miles away – it was pitch black outside, so it’s hard to say what it was.
“It was quite weird. It was very bright, it was the brightest thing I’ve ever seen. I just realised how bright it was and said to my girlfriend ‘look at that!’
“I was staring at it for a while before I picked up my phone to film it, but it was there for about three or four minutes.
“I thought it maybe could have been lanterns, but they didn’t go away, they kept flying til I couldn’t see them anymore.
“I really have no idea what it could have been – it was just really, really bright.
“UFO is a really broad term. That’s what it is, you know, an unidentified flying object.”
In the video, five out of focus lights can be seen in the distance. Then the witnesses zooms in and the lights come into focus. It is hard to tell if they are moving at all. Then a couple more lights appear, making about eight at once. Some of the lights continue to dim out as others appear.
Wales Online does not speculate or offer any suggestions as to the nature of the lights, but does ask, “What are they?”
The lights are probably not Chinese Lanterns, as lanterns are lit from the ground and stay lit until they get into the sky. Unlike these lights, which lit up in the sky.
However, another possibility is military flares. A couple of miles west of Cardiff Airport is the St. Athan Royal Air Force base. During night time operations flares can be dropped from planes that are working in a covert mode with their visible lights off. I have emailed the Royal Air Force to inquire if indeed they were running exercises at that time.

Meanwhile, the lights remain a mystery. The video can be seen on the story by Wales Online here.
After no victims were found at the scene of a one-car rollover accident in Roswell this week, crews had to rush back hours later when the driver said he woke up surrounded by donkeys in a field.
Two men rolled their vehicle in the median of U.S. 70 west near mile marker 324 Friday at about 2 a.m., according to state police.
Multiple fire and police agencies went to the scene, but couldn’t find victims. Seven hours later, at about 9 a.m., 911 dispatchers got a call from a man who said he was lost and had been in a car accident that morning.
The man said he and the passenger were drinking the night before and didn’t remember what happened next, according to state police. He also said he woke up in a field next to some donkeys.
The driver, whose identity hasn’t been released, suffered injuries to a shoulder and his hands. Police said the passenger suffered back injuries.
The driver was issued multiple citations, but the charges haven’t been released. – KOAT
UPDATED:
A driver and his passenger mysteriously vanished for several hours and had no memory of what happened.
The two men had been involved in a car accident in which their vehicle had rolled down an embankment, but when paramedics arrived on the scene to offer assistance they were perplexed to discover that the car was empty and that the men could not be found anywhere around the crash site.
The mystery only deepened when, seven hours later, the pair allegedly awoke in a field of donkeys with no idea of how they got there or where they’d been for the preceding time period.
The town of Roswell itself has long been associated with the unexplained ever since a mysterious object was believed to have crashed there in 1947, an event that has been at the center of conspiracy theories and speculation for the better part of 65 years.
It isn’t clear exactly what happened to the two men in this latest incident, but based on a police report suggesting that the men had been drinking heavily before the crash, it seems that alcohol, rather than extraterrestrial visitors, may have been the primary culprit. More at THP
Tulsa County Assessor Ken Yazel suggests public hangings in the town square to reduce crime.
Why stop with public hangings?
Yazel wasn’t clear where Tulsa’s town square is located, but I’ll assume it’s Bartlett Square on Main and Fifth streets.
With the water foundation, criminals could be waterboarded in front of a crowd.
How about going all William Wallace and have them hanged, drawn and quartered?
Stoning could be a possibility, but that requires crowd participation.
Burning at the stake is an oldie but goodie. The city could handle two problems at once, if officials use residential green waste as fuel to the fire.
This is such a perfectly medieval idea, it seems a waste to stop at lawbreakers.
To my knowledge, Tulsa has never had an old-fashioned witch hunt. This is not a metaphor. Real witches.
According to the 18th century B.C. Code of Hammurabi, a float test was effective in ferreting out those practicing black magic.
Since there is rarely water in the Arkansas River, the Tulsa townsfolk will have to rely on Big Splash.
The alleged witches could be shot down the big slide and then we’ll see if they float or not.
Clearly, Yazel’s idea is not only morbid but so out-of-touch that it’s silly.
Execution is still a legal punishment for certain types of murder in Oklahoma. It is a punishment taken seriously to the point of multiple mandated court appeals and oversight.
It’s so strictly governed that the state gained international notoriety when it failed the execution protocols a few months ago. The state is still trying to figure out how to move forward with legal executions.
Yazel’s comments, which he has not backed away from, came during a discussion at a public Budget Board county meeting about the scheduling of jury trials, jail overcrowding and crime rate.
By throwing out ideas like public hangings doesn’t add anything to the legitimate conversation.
In Scandinavian folklore, the Huldra is a seductive forest creature. Male hulders do appear, called Huldrekall. Like the female counterpart, the huldrkall is a shapeshifter who often lures girls under a fair countenance (Glamour). Both male and female hulder could be revealed as rather ugly when the glamour was lifted from them.
In some traditions, the huldra lures men into the forest to have sexual intercourse with her, rewarding those who satisfy her and often killing those who do not. The Norwegian huldra is a lot less bloodthirsty and may simply kidnap a man or lure him into the underworld. She sometimes steals human infants and replaces them with her own ugly huldrebarn. In some cases, the intercourse resulted in a child, being presented to the unknowing father. In some cases, she forces him to marry her.

The Jersey Shore shark attacks of 1916 were a series of shark attacks along the coast of New Jersey between July 1 and July 12, 1916, in which four people were killed and one injured. Since 1916, scholars have debated which shark species was responsible and the number of animals involved, with the great white shark and the bull shark most frequently being blamed. The attacks occurred during a deadly summer heat wave and polio epidemic in the northeastern United States that drove thousands of people to the seaside resorts of the Jersey Shore. Shark attacks on the Atlantic Coast of the United States outside the semitropical states of Florida, Georgia, and the Carolinas were rare, but scholars believe that the increased presence of sharks and humans in the water led to the attacks in 1916.
Local and national reaction to the attacks involved a wave of panic that led to shark hunts aimed at eradicating the population of “man-eating” sharks and protecting the economies of New Jersey’s seaside communities. Resort towns enclosed their public beaches with steel nets to protect swimmers. Scientific knowledge about sharks before 1916 was based on conjecture and speculation. The attacks forced ichthyologists to reassess common beliefs about the abilities of sharks and the nature of shark attacks.

SPIRIT MIMICS OR VISITORS FROM OTHER DIMENSIONS?by Brad Steiger.
Gary said that he was driving back to Redlands, California. Both of the lumberjacks nodded in unison. The one who had not yet spoken said, That’s nice. That’s a nice drive. You will enjoy it. Gary could not shake the feeling that he had walked into an automated display at Disneyland or some other amusement park. None of the people in the place looked quite real,î he said. ìIf I would have really thought about it at the time, it probably would have freaked me out.

ABOUT QUETZALCOATI AND QUENTINby Lester Maverick.
Perhaps you might be intrigued by how Quentin (his space name) became the legendary god Quetzalcoatl in South America. So here are some blurbs that I wrote about it. Quentin is a real to life extraterrestrial SUPERMAN originally from the fifth Spectran dimension with all the super powers of a superman! Also Quentin is a grade 5 personal representative of the Council of Guardians who are a kind of a group mind of super beings who are the elder BROTHERS of humanity everywhere in multiple universes… More… Also read: SUBJECT: WHO ARE THE PSYCHEANS?.
UFO WAS 'BIGGER THAN A HOUSE' CLAIM MISSOURI WITNESSESby Roger Marsh.
Missouri witnesses in Joplin reported watching a silent, boxy object “bigger than a house” traveling about 300 feet off of the ground about 9:15 p.m. on July 8, 2014, according to testimony in Case 57853 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database. The husband and wife reporting witnesses were traveling home when they noticed a man in the street trying to flag them down and pointing to the sky. More….
A BRASS COLORED DISC OVER LAKE ERIEby Cheryl Costa.
A high school student witnesses a brass colored disc over Lake Erie but it would be 57 years before we would know the depth of his sighting.

THE CLOSE ENCOUNTER OF MARIA ELODIA PRETZELby Scott Corrales.
Despite our best efforts, it can be difficult to obtain follow-up material for every single case, especially those that occurred decades ago. A casual reading of the October 1983 issue of UFOPRESS, however, kicked up an article by our friend Alejandro Agostinelli about the Pretzel CE-3 case. The article’s original title: “La incredible y triste historia de la cándida Elodia y de su padre el desalmado” (The Incredible and Sad Story of Fair Elodia and Her Heartless Father ) is a nod to novelist Gabriel García Márquez’s “Eréndira” – To read the original case, please see “Argentina: The 1968 Night Visitor” at http://inexplicata.blogspot.com/2010/06/venturing-into-dark-vaults-of-south.html — SC] More…

IN 2014 HALF CAT MUTILATIONS CONTINUEby Chris Holly.
I had an extremely interesting summer off and wanted to return to writing about my experiences as soon as I returned to my blog. Sadly I feel as an animal lover and pet owner to once again do the right thing and report that I have had two more half cat reports during the last few weeks and feel it more important to start off my new fall season with this news in hopes it may somehow prevent this from continuing. I will bring my other articles on board soon. First let me deal with this disturbing issue. More..
THE METAPHYSICS OF GHOST RESCUEby Paul Schroeder.
I have heard astonishing things most unverifiable about Heaven, from odd PSYCHIC MEDIUMS: Too heavy smokers retain visibly black lungs, the vain- cosmetic- surgery- addicted, sport disfigured countenances, those too rich, ornate and gaudy, appear homely and threadbare. That is, according to some PSYCHICS, there is an inverse relationship between our aspects, after death, in an astral world, that mirrors and reflect our damages, foolishness and wrong values, from the life most recently departed.

LAWS OF THE COSMOS BEINGSby Theresa J Morris.
Gary said that he was driving back to Redlands, California. Both of the lumberjacks nodded in unison. The one who had not yet spoken said, That’s nice. That’s a nice drive. You will enjoy it. Gary could not shake the feeling that he had walked into an automated display at Disneyland or some other amusement park. None of the people in the place looked quite real,î he said. ìIf I would have really thought about it at the time, it probably would have freaked me out. The All-American Mom asked him what he liked to eat. More..

MUFON INVESTIGATORS WIFE SPOTS TRIANGLE OVER NEW JERSEY JUNE 4, 2009 ……… WOODSTOWN NEW JERSEY
Kelly Pfeifer sighted a large black triangle, with lights on the bottom at the topof the hill, on route 40 just outside of Woodstown, going towards Pole Tavern. She said the triangle hovered over a house on the other side of the road. It made no noise and Kelly watched it for 5 minutes before she decided to get out of there. The object was the size of a soft ball at arms length. This is a very busy road at night with truck traffic . The time was approximately 9 pm. She was looking out her rolled down window from the drivers side and had a clear view of the triangle. The underside of the triangle was lit with rectangle lights [ see illustration ]. The lights were bright but not blinding. She could not tell if the middle of the triangle was filled in due to the lights. The sky was crystal clear. Kelly was coming home from her hair dresser in Pennsville. Kelly told me about the incident the NEXT day. KEN’S NOTE: We have has some strange sightings in this part of South Jersey. Salem nuclear plant is only 16 miles from the Woodstown area.
3-25-12 WOODSTOWN NEW JERSEY The object was in the southern sky about 2 fists above the horizon and 250 degrees off the Woodstown VOR ( OOD ) . The altitude was around 8000 -10000 feet. The object was in a hoover mode for around 1 hr then slowly moved further south and climbed to a higher UKN altitude. On sunday around 10:30 pm the object appeared in the same spot and had the same flight pattern. While observing this object, a large aircraft was just below the object mentioned and had the ” usual ” aircraft NAV lights on it as it moved across the night sky. The object did not change its hoover mode during the other aircraft passing. The object would only flash the colors Light Blue, Light Green, and Red in its shape. On 3-25-12 the Millville Flight Services was called around 10:45 to report this matter. There was no further calls or reports from them as of the following day.

APRIL 17, 2009 ….. WOODSTOWN NEW JERSEY I saw a bright light and triangular shaped object. While going turkey hunting on 4/17 at about 5:25 am, while traveling west on rt. 40, I saw a bright light toward the Woodstown-Yorktown area. It was so low that I thought that I was looking at a plane in trouble so, I made a left off of rt. 40 to get a better look at it. At that time I noticed that the light wasn’t moving. (I expected the light to move to the left or right as it might if a plane was in trouble and looking for a place to land). But, the light just stayed in one spot. The light was about 1-1/2 miles away and it was a big-big bright light shining and I was getting closer and closer. I came to a stop sign and the light was shining into a field on my left and was connected to a large triangular object. But, as I drove under this object, it made no noise. Something told me to stop and scrutinize this thing but, something else told me to keep going and don’t mess with it. I just kept going while looking at it through my truck mirrors and noticed bright flashes. I thought that it might be strobes or electrical flashes. As I continued to look through my mirrors, it just disappeared. I didn’t realize it at the time but, it had been hovering over power lines.
A witness photographed a UFO in the sky above the English town of St Helens on the night of Monday, September 15.
The witness was walking his dog at approximately 7:00 p.m. when he noticed the unusual aerial object. He was able to photograph the UFO with his cellphone before the object vanished.

He sent his UFO photo to local newspaper the St Helens Reporter. He explains to the paper that the mysterious object seemed to hover in the same spot for almost a full minute before it suddenly shot to the right and disappeared.
The witness offers his opinion that the object he observed exhibited behavior not characteristic of known aircraft. He is also convinced that what he saw was not a Chinese lantern.
No one, except his dog, was with the witness when he saw the UFO.
The witness explains that, since he began sharing his sighting story, others have told him about similar events in the area. He opines, “Who knows, may be this town is a bit of a hotspot for UFO activity!”
(N.Morgan) An amazing event took place in Florida, on Sept. 15th. Witnesses say they saw and photographed a UFO floating among a rainbow, after a storm. TheFlorida witness at Fort Lauderdale driving southbound along I-95 reported photographing a fast-moving UFO about 10:30 a.m. on September 15, 2014, according to testimony in Case 59886 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.“I noticed a double rainbow in the sky,” the witness stated. “I got out my Smartphone to photograph the rainbow and took four pictures in succession.”
The witness included one photo with the MUFON report, which was filed on September 17, 2014. “On the fourth photograph I captured what appears to be a UFO flying really fast next to the rainbow. As quickly as it appeared, it was gone.” Florida MUFON is investigating. Fort Lauderdale is a city in Broward County, Florida, population 165,521. Florida has a current UFO Alert Rating of 3 with a high number of recent reports nationally. Florida had 26 UFO reports in August 2014 – the 5th highest reporting state – while California had 99 reports as the highest reporting state.

The following reports were created by Dr. J. Allen Hynek, the scientist infamous for having consulted for the U.S. Air Force's Project Blue Book, then later devoting his life to the field of UFO research.
These documents offer a rare glimpse into the life of Dr. J. Allen Hynek -- away from his study into the UFO phenomenon.
"Beelden tether-experiment NASA bewijzen dat buitenaardsen bestaan"
“Beelden tether-experiment NASA bewijzen dat buitenaardsen bestaan”
Tijdens de negentiende vlucht van spaceshuttle Columbia op 25 februari 1996 werd het zogeheten tether-experiment uitgevoerd, waarbij astronauten probeerden middels een lange kabel – een tether genaamd – elektriciteit op te wekken en de bovenste laag van de atmosfeer te bestuderen. De kabel knapte uiteindelijk waardoor het experiment mislukte.
Nadat de kabel was uitgerold, verschenen in beeld allerlei cirkelvormige objecten met een gat in het midden, die kriskras door elkaar bewogen. Eerder deze maand publiceerde Stargazer Nation een nieuwe video op basis van het oorspronkelijke beeldmateriaal, waarin te zien is hoe UFO’s de tether benaderen. Het filmpje geeft complottheoretici nieuwe munitie, zo meldt de Houston Chronicle.
Ten tijde van het incident legde astronaut Franklin Chang-Diaz uit dat de objecten bij de kabel ‘kleine stukken puin waren’ die meevlogen met de spaceshuttle. Dit ruimtepuin werd verlicht door de zon, aldus de astronaut.
Later merkte John Tindall van History Channel op dat de telelens van de camera een cirkelvormige spiegel had met een gat in het midden. Omdat de beelden als gevolg van het licht van de zon werden overbelicht, leek het alsof ze zich achter de kabel in plaats van ervoor bevonden, aldus Tindall.
In de archieven van NASA over de hoogtepunten van de missie wordt nergens melding gemaakt van UFO’s of vreemde waarnemingen op het moment dat de kabel knapte. Als zich buiten het raam van de spaceshuttle vreemde zaken hebben voorgedaan, zijn ze weggelaten uit het overzicht van de hoogtepunten.
Carl Sagan's reply: "My view is that no amount of anecdotal evidence, unsubstantiated by physical evidence, is worth a single substantive bit of physical evidence. A million reports that the Earth is flat has no veridical value on the shape of the Earth.
UFO researcher Shepherd Johnson of Virginia was researching Carl Sagan’s papers at the Library of Congress in Washington, DC.
He found a fascinating attempt by Laurance Rockefeller to draw Sagan into his pro-UFO advocacy (Johnson posted this to the Facebook group UFO Updates). The American billionaire Laurance Rockefeller (1910 – 2004) was the son of John D. Rockefeller, Jr., and the brother of Nelson Rockefeller. His UFO “disclosure initiative“ is well-known in UFO circles. According to Wikipedia,
In 1993, along with his niece, Anne Bartley, the stepdaughter of Winthrop Rockefeller and the then-president of the Rockefeller Family Fund, he established the UFO Disclosure Initiative to the Clinton White House. They asked for all UFO information held by the government, including from the CIA and the US Air Force, to be declassified and released to the public. The first and most important test case where declassification had to apply, according to Rockefeller, was the Roswell UFO incident. In September 1994, the Air Force categorically denied the incident was UFO-related. Rockefeller briefed Clinton on the results of his initiative in 1995. Clinton did produce an Executive Order in late 1994 to declassify numerous documents in the National Archives, but this did not specifically refer to UFO-related files.
There are still conspiracy theories going around about Rockefeller’s UFO “disclosure initiative” being suppressed by shadowy powers.
In addition to funding UFO research, Laurance Rockefeller also funded research into Crop Circles, and ESP.
SETI has no data, says Rockefeller’s argument, but UFOlogy does. Sagan’s reply was brief and pointed:
“A million reports that the Earth is flat has no veridical value on the shape of the Earth.” – Carl Sagan.

Our scientists and engineers have lifted the lid on some futuristic technologies that could be incorporated in military and civil aircraft of 2040 or even earlier
The Transformer
The Transformer is a flexible aircraft system that combines smaller jets for more efficient travel, before having them split apart to quickly adapt to any scenario.
The concept can be tailor-made to suit any scenario. For longer journeys, smaller sub-aircraft can be combined together during travel, to increase the range of the jet and save fuel through reducing ‘drag’.
Once they have reached their objective however, the craft can then split off and adapt to any given situation – whether that is going on the offensive if threatened, or performing functional tasks such as surveillance or the dropping of supplies.
ON-BOARD 3D PRINTING
Smaller unmanned aircraft – or UAVs – are created by super high-tech on-board 3D printers, via Additive Layer Manufacturing and robotic assembly technique
The 3D printers respond to data fed to them by a remote control room where a human commander decides what should be produced.
The UAVs are best suited to each scenario – be it a group of wide-winged aircraft for protracted or enduring surveillance – or rotary-winged UAVs to rescue single civilians or soldiers from dangerous situations. After use the UAVs could render themselves useless through dissolving circuit boards or they might safely land in a recoverable position if re-use was required.
This creates the ultimate adaptable taskforce, with a lead aircraft able to enter any unknown scenario and quickly manufacture an effective toolset for any task.
The Survivor
This technology allows jets to quickly heal themselves from damage sustained in flight
The technology is a lightweight adhesive fluid inside a pattern of carbon nanotubes from which the aircraft is constructed and is released when damaged to quickly ‘set’ mid-flight and heal any damage.
This advanced use of materials would create a highly survivable jet, capable of entering even the most dangerous of scenarios to complete vital missions.
DIRECTED ENERGY SYSTEMS
A futuristic attachment weapon for aircraft that is capable of firing a concentrated beam of energy at the speed of light
Currently in use on battlefields today are Directed Energy Systems which can be used to protect ground troops from incoming projectiles such as missiles or mortars via concentrated energy beams.
In future, these could be adapted into an attachment for aircraft, taking that capability to the air, allowing fast-moving jets to destroy targets mid-air with incredible accuracy, at a low cost per beam, and with a very deep magazine which holds beams.

On the night of October 21, 1978 Frederick Valentich radioed into air traffic control in Melborne with some strange news. An unidentified metallic craft was toying with his Cessna as he flew over the Bass Strait en route to King’s Island. No one ever saw him or his aircraft again.
It all happened during the largest wave of UFO sightings Australia had ever seen. Over fifty reports were uncovered from the area of Valentich’s disappearance on that day alone. Some reported classic cigar-shaped craft while others saw a “starfish-shaped” object with lights that looked like “silver rain.” Electronic interferance was noted in a number of these reports.
Some witnesses even said they saw a “green light” shadowing Valentich’s aircraft on the night in question (take note of that for later).
Valentich left a looming legacy of his final moments with a this bizzare yet compelling radio transmission:
19:06:14 DSJ [Valentich]: Melbourne, this is Delta Sierra Juliet. Is there any known traffic below five thousand?
FS [Flight Services; Robey]: Delta Sierra Juliet, no known traffic.
DSJ: Delta Sierra Juliet, I am, seems to be a large aircraft below five thousand.
19:06:44 FS: Delta Sierra Juliet, What type of aircraft is it?
DSJ: Delta Sierra Juliet, I cannot affirm, it is four bright, and it seems to me like landing lights.
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet.
19:07:31 DSJ: Melbourne, this is Delta Sierra Juliet, the aircraft has just passed over me at least a thousand feet above.
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet, roger, and it is a large aircraft, confirmed?
DSJ: Er-unknown, due to the speed it’s travelling, is there any air force aircraft in the vicinity?
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet, no known aircraft in the vicinity.
19:08:18 DSJ: Melbourne, it’s approaching now from due east towards me.
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet.
19:08:41 DSJ: (open microphone for two seconds.)
19:08:48 DSJ: Delta Sierra Juliet, it seems to me that he’s playing some sort of game, he’s flying over me two, three times at speeds I could not identify.
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet, roger, what is your actual level?
DSJ: My level is four and a half thousand, four five zero zero.
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet and you confirm you cannot identify the aircraft?
DSJ: Affirmative.
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet, roger, stand by.
19:09:27 DSJ: Melbourne, Delta Sierra Juliet, it’s not an aircraft it is (open microphone for two seconds).
19:09:42 FS: Delta Sierra Juliet, can you describe the – er – aircraft?
DSJ: Delta Sierra Juliet, as it’s flying past it’s a long shape (open microphone for three seconds) cannot identify more than it has such speed (open microphone for three seconds). It’s before me right now Melbourne.
19:10 FS: Delta Sierra Juliet, roger and how large would the – er – object be?
19:10:19 DSJ: Delta Sierra Juliet, Melbourne, it seems like it’s chasing me. What I’m doing right now is orbiting and the thing is just orbiting on top of me also. It’s got a green light[emphasis mine] and sort of metallic like, it’s all shiny on the outside.
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet
19:10:46 DSJ: Delta Sierra Juliet (open microphone for three seconds) It’s just vanished.
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet.
19:11:00 DSJ: Melbourne, would you know what kind of aircraft I’ve got? Is it a military aircraft?
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet, Confirm the – er - aircraft just vanished.
DSJ: Say again.
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet, is the aircraft still with you?
DSJ: Delta Sierra Juliet; it’s (open microphone for two seconds) now approaching from the south-west.
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet
19:11:50 DSJ: Delta Sierra Juliet, the engine is rough-idling. I’ve got it set at twenty three twenty-four and the thing is (coughing).
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet, roger, what are your intentions?
DSJ: My intentions are – ah – to go to King Island – ah – Melbourne. That strange aircraft is hovering on top of me again (open microphone for two seconds). It is hovering and (open microphone for one second) it’s not an aircraft.
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet.
19:12:28 DSJ: Delta Sierra Juliet. Melbourne (open microphone for seventeen seconds).
These final seventeen seconds of open transmission revealed only a “metallic, scraping sound” on the Melbourne Service Unit’s tape recording. Despite analysis by a former NASA researcher and the Royal Melbourne Institue of Technology, these sounds remain a mystery.
Roy Manifold’s Photograph
Many theories have come forward regarding Frederick’s fate. Some suggest suicide (although he was by all accounts a content man), others a faked death to collect on life insurance (yeah, like I’ve never heard that one before), and of course others that he was disintegrated or abducted by the UFO.Frederick’s father, Guido Valentino, actually found some consolation in the abduction theory after his son’s out-of-this-world disappearance. According to the AP, “He hoped his son had been taken by a UFO and had not crashed. ‘The fact that they have found no trace of him presents a possibility that UFOs could have been there.’”
The final piece of this puzzle is the photograph taken by Roy Manifold. He had set up a timelapse camera to capture the sunset off the coast, but found something strange when developed. There appeared to be an unexplained object with an “exhaust cloud” in one of his pictures. According to Roy, these were taken just 20 minutes before Valentich’s last transmission. Experts at an Arizona-based UFO organization analyzed the photos and concluded that the object must be moving at 200 mph, or hovering stationary while the clouds zoomed past at that speed (an equally puzzling feat). Below is an enhanced version of the original photograph, provided for your scrutiny.
Could this be the UFO that kidnapped Frederick Valentich?
What: Round metal object with rods hovers and moves about sky
Let’s take a short break from Texas UFO sightings for a minute and see what’s going on in nearby Cali. A fascinating craft of some variety hovering over the Golden State was photographed and submitted to MUFON along with detailed witness testimony:
Coming home about 1855 when I pulled into my driveway. Above and beyond my neighbors home I noticed a bright orb hovering. It reflected the sunset orange, and that is why I noticed it; besides it was a completely clear blue sky. I thought it could be a balloon or some sort of odd looking helicopter, but it didn’t have any rotors. It appeared to have rods or antenna coming out of it. I went to my backyard to get a better view. I appeared to be less than a mile away over residences. I got my camera about 5 min later and set up my tripod. I took a few photos. Then got my video camera and began to shoot video too for about 20 min. Over the approx 45 mins that I watched it, there was some wavering like it was being affected by air movement. At times it would descend behind a large tree, then reappear slowly as it came out from behind the tree. The object remained relatively stable then started to slowly drift away to the SW until I couldn’t see it anymore because it was too dark. I was intrigued by it. My photos showed that it indeed had 3 rods coming from it.

Amazing UFO sighting over Leon Guanajuato, Mexico on 11th September 2014
New amazing video footage of triangle – shaped UFO sighting recorded in the night sky above Leon Guanajuato, Mexico on 11th September 2014.
Witness said: This UFO fleet was detected after the previous video of the 3 objects, there is an error in the video is when the actual time was depues minutes to midnight six UFOs flying together, you can see a flicker of light energy, there are those who are afraid and compared this with birds, and know are fully within their rights to believe what they like, I hope that those who write saying they are birds, record and / or upload a video of birds to compare both videos.
Triangle UFO sighting above Lithuania on 15th September 2014
Triangle UFO sighting above Lithuania on 15th September2014
New amazing video footage of a triangle – shaped UFO sighting recorded in the night sky above Lithuania on 15th September 2014.
Witness said: This amazing video shows a triangle formation staying stationary while 2 orbs leave a forrest and ascend towards the huge triangle while one shoots beams of light to the ground like a weapon being used while travelling to the formation. Its totally unusual to see such activity in any sky and to witness this is something else. Whatever the beam of light was and where it hit would be a great story if ever investigated as it was aimed at something! Animal,cottage,car or something military we will not know! The huge dark triangle with lights pointed at each corner keeps its position and adds to this credible footage as it shows the objects heading towards it fast enough.
Last month, Russian scientists said they discovered sea plankton on the International Space Station (ISS) that might be alive and thriving. NASA shed doubt on the discovery and little has been said since. However, the German Aerospace Center (DLR) recently responded to questions on the issue confirming the discovery of “bacterial DNA,” but casting doubt on other aspects of the Russian report.
Last month, Russian ISS orbital mission chief Vladimir Solovyev made worldwide headlines with his news that Russian scientists had discovered traces of sea plankton on the surface of the ISS. ITAR-TASS News Agency, who broke the news, said the discovery confirms “some organisms can live on the surface of the International Space Station (ISS) for years amid factors of a space flight, such as zero gravity, temperature conditions and hard cosmic radiation.”

However, amid all of the excitement, NASA put the brakes on the celebration by stating they could not conform the claims. NASA spokesman Dan Huot told Space.com, “As far as we’re concerned, we haven’t heard any official reports from our Roscosmos colleagues that they’ve found sea plankton.” Roscosmos is Russia’s Federal Space Agency.
Little officially has been heard since. As Forbes puts it, “To be clear, the actual astronauts aboard the space station haven’t chimed in on the space plankton controversy. Rather, it’s being fought out in the media via brief quotes from space agency representatives here on Earth.”
Now, another one of those space agencies, the German Aerospace Center (DLR), which serves as the German space agency and is a prominent member of the European Space Agency (ESA), has chimed in via social media. GreWi.de, who describe themselves as a German frontier-news science magazine, has reported that although their requests to the DLR for a response went unanswered, one of their readers, Tanja Wilff, did receive a response via Facebook.
At an extravehicular activity Russian cosmonauts took samples from the outside of the Russian module. Those samples were then analyzed in a laboratory on Earth. Within this sample bacterial DNA was discovered.
However, the method by which the samples were analyzed in this case is disputed, as it cannot detect all kinds of bacteria and it also can not test whether the discovered bacteria are living and thriving or not.
Also the biomass that can be extracted from such samples is strongly limited so that at the moment no further tests could have been conducted on it. To do this, more samples would be needed.

Wilken’s response seems to more clearly define what the Russians may have found, and confirms the discovery of bacterial DNA. However, it seems that the Germans are not confident whether the microorganisms were alive, let alone thriving, and are also unsure of the type of bacteria that may have been collected.
These points are important. Solovyev says that their discovery, among other things, “means that there are some uplifting air currents which reach the station and settle on its surface.” Which is interesting, and I am sure useful to science, but the excitement was built up around the possibility of living microorganisms in that air settling on the ISS and surviving in space. Sea plankton that found its way into space and died is not quite as exciting.
If the Russians have other reasons to believe the bacteria they collected was sea plankton that was alive and possibly even thriving, it appears the U.S. and Germans have not yet been made aware.
The cattle mutilation wave did not occur at just any moment in time. The harsh reality suggested that attention given to these “strange events” responded to the infinity of existing social concerns. The mystery, therefore, could be considered an outgrowth of the crisis. According to the theory’s most newfangled variant, the phenomenon had been deliberately inflated to distract the population from the nation’s state of malaise. But more than a smokescreen, the exaggerated diffusion of such news looked like another symptom of the same illness.
On December 19, 2001, a crowd of Argentineans took the streets, banging on cooking pots, to protest against a government asleep in the midst of the most brutal crisis of recent history. Ferocious reprisals followed the protests, resulting in thirty-nine dead at the hands of the police. Bank freezes, the uncontrolled dollar and high rates of unemployment added to the sad national ordeal. The ashes were still hot in 2002. Shortly before the wave of alien cattle rustling, the emblem of creole opulence had been prey to minor “depredations”. It is still hard to forget the image broadcast by a news program, when a truck with beef cattle overturned on the outskirts of Rosario, Santa Fe, in 2001 and a crowd surged to butcher the animals on the roadside. Other factors – frivolous to some, but serious in their psycho-social impact – fostered the dejected popular mood: around the same time, the Argentinean football team had been eliminated from the world cup in the first round.
For once, a modern expression of the supernatural drew the interest of two specialists in myth and legends. Martha Blache and Silvia Balzano, researchers with CONICET, put forth an explanatory model for the events. They suggested the possible interconnection between Chupacabras reports, the penetration of genetically-modified sorghum and the use of new herbicides whose preparation is controlled by American laboratories. They wondered, for example, if the phenomenon might not be a warning against the uncertainty created by these changes and the perceived lack of control evinced by cattlemen. Globalization may be related to the role played by a country that “benefits from our raw materials and natural resources, removing them in an efficient yet imperceptible manner,” without leaving traces. News about cattle mutilations, they write, seemed to condense a wider metaphor reflecting a country in a state of crisis that is trying to identify the culprits. Who is attacking the cows, tame and apathetic representative of Argentine heritage? Is our blood being sucked by international agencies or domestic carrion animals?” The popular imagination, they conclude, “could sublimate the conflicting demands of the IMF with regard to the foreign debt.” (6)
In proposing their model, Blache and Balzano did not conduct a survey on the political trends or the technical-scientific concerns of cattlemen. Implementing a sort of psycho-cultural analysis using press clippings is always risky. But the authors are the first to say that their hypothesis rests only on journalistic sources. At least they didn’t keep quiet.
The authors also noticed the similarity in the conclusions reached by Kenneth M. Rommel when the FBI assigned him to study the bovine massacre in the United States in 1980 and those of SENASA in 2002. In his study of twenty-seven cattle mutilations, Rommel ascribed the phenomenon to the combined effect of the media, the social influence of “experts” and the action of various predators in the genesis, formation and extension of the wave. (7) Both in the United States and Argentina, the mutilated carcasses were found according to pre-defined patterns. What the authors have termed “the media transmission chain” supposes the participation of narrators who contribute to disseminating a legend regardless of their posture toward it.
This consensual version of the reality to be defined arises from an “identikit”, and these strangeness patterns configure, in turn a “selection criteria”. Thus, in order for the animal to belong to the category of “mutilated cattle”, it must meet a number of symptoms and even common scenarios. In order to build a “classic cattle mutilation scenario”, the animal must be found without its organs or soft tissue. The edges of its skin must be “clean, circular or with sharp angles” and the body must be as dry as possible, “as though exsanguinated”. Rommel did not find this “ideal case” in any of the one hundred seventeen mutilations he researched between 1975 and 1979, especially because – as in the Argentinean case – “surgical precision” vanished under the microscope and the exsanguination was only apparent. “Blood always pools in the lower parts of the carcass.” The missing parts – soft tissue organs – are the parts appealing to a carnivorous predator. He also discovered that the areas under the carcasses’ weight was also intact. An “intelligent mutilator” would have turned it over to devour the hidden parts. This was never the case.
[…]
In the United States, sociologist J.R. Stewart found that the number of cattle mutilation incidents was directly related to the volume of news devoted to the subject in the media. He also interviewed eight hundred adults and determined that the police, having no experience in elucidating the causes of cattle deaths, and certain local vets, more accustomed to treating live animals, were inclined to accept the farmers’ eyewitness accounts (9). A similar study was not performed in Argentina, but the phenomenon came to an end when the media moved on to other subjects.
Application of the “pitted windshield theory” can lead one to think of a case of selective perception molded by the stereotype provided by the media. I must stress that I am not a sociologist who can reduce the phenomenon to a case of mass hysteria. Even so, this theory seems more convincing to me than finding explanations in the incursions of a bloodthirsty Chupacabras, aliens hankering to throw some creole spareribs on the grill or a gang of lunatic scientists injecting strange potions into our cows.
For the moment, we know that the media is accustomed to broadcasting mutilated images of reality, and we cannot ask cows for their opinion. They can’t even moo. The red muzzled mouse – Professor Kravetz told me – swallowed their tongues.

“I noticed a double rainbow in the sky,” the witness stated. “I got out my Smartphone to photograph the rainbow and took four pictures in succession.”
The witness included one photo with the MUFON report, which was filed on September 17, 2014.

“On the fourth photograph I captured what appears to be a UFO flying really fast next to the rainbow. As quickly as it appeared, it was gone.”
Florida MUFON is investigating. Fort Lauderdale is a city in Broward County, Florida, population 165,521. Florida has a current UFO Alert Rating of 3 with a high number of recent reports nationally. Florida had 26 UFO reports in August 2014 – the 5th highest reporting state – while California had 99 reports as the highest reporting state. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.
The UFO Alert Rating System is based on five levels – 1 through 5 – where states with 150 or more reports for the month are rated an Alert 1; states with 100 or more reports are rated an Alert 2; 25 reports or more for the month are rated an Alert 3; 13 or more reports are rated an Alert 4; and those states with less than 13 reports for the month are an Alert 5.
Missouri witnesses in Joplin reported watching a silent, boxy object “bigger than a house” traveling about 300 feet off of the ground about 9:15 p.m. on July 8, 2014, according to testimony in Case 57853 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The husband and wife reporting witnesses were traveling home when they noticed a man in the street trying to flag them down and pointing to the sky.
“He was walking his dog who was barking wildly at the object and jumping high into the air,” the witness stated. “It had approached from the northeast. As we watched, it crossed directly overhead. It looked to be about 300 feet off of the ground.”
The witness described the object.

“It was off-white in color appearing to be illuminated by a yellowish light coming from within it. It was as big or bigger than a house and was completely silent.”
The object’s shape was not aerodynamic.
“It was boxy-shaped with multiple angles kind of like on a stealth airplane. It looked like it had darkened square windows in parts of it. It was flat on the bottom with round orange and red randomly flashing lights all around the bottom edge. The lights were round with a dark center – like donuts. They were the size of stop signs.”
The object moved southwest and then south of their location and appeared to be traveling at about 100 mph. They then noticed a change in the lighting.
“It suddenly turned off its lights. All of them went off like they were quickly dimmed and not just cut off. Two lights on the back, one orange and one red, stayed on slightly longer than the others – about half a second. These lights seemed to have a burnt look to the dark centers as if maybe exhaust or flames had at one time come out of there.”
The object then appeared to be descending like it was going to land or possibly crash.
“It stayed perfectly level as it descended behind the trees on the horizon. It seemed to form a light mist or fog around it as it descended.”
The witnesses also noticed the strange behavior of animals in the area.
“I noticed that along its flight path every dog was going crazy, barking and howling.”
Three witnesses said the object appeared to land or was about to crash. They attempted to follow the UFO across Joplin, MO, and experienced odd disturbances to the vehicle they were driving on July 8, 2014. On May 22, 2011, Joplin was struck by a powerful EF-5 tornado which resulted in at least 158 deaths and more than 900 injuries. Pictured: A street in Joplin. (Credit: Google)
The three witnesses then decided to follow the object in the couple’s vehicle.
“We were using a spotlight that plugs into the cigarette lighter to search the fields next to the roads. After driving about a mile, the spotlight suddenly went very dim and the seat belt warning beeper started sounding repeatedly and quickly. Also the Jeep’s automatic transmission would not change gears. When I tried to go into reverse it would not go into gear without a struggle. All of this continued for about five minutes and then suddenly everything went back to normal. It is a newer model Jeep Wrangler and has never done anything like this before.”
The group then became nervous, but decided to keep looking.
“We continued searching nearby roads and fields but didn’t find anything unusual. On our way back home, as we passed the same location as before, our spotlight again dimmed and the beeping alarms in the Jeep began again.”
Despite the vehicle’s problems they again continued to search for the object.
“Shortly after, we turned around and passed this spot a third time, but this time nothing happened. We finally gave up our search and went home. By then the spotlight was working at full power and the Jeep was working properly and nothing else occurred. The man that flagged us down turned out to be a neighbor who lives about a block away. He is a retired commercial airline pilot from England. He said he had never seen anything like this before.”
No images or videos were included with the MUFON report, which was filed on July 9, 2014. Missouri MUFON is investigating. Joplin is a city in southern Jasper County and northern Newton County in the southwestern corner of Missouri, population 50,150.
Missouri has a current UFO Alert Rating of 3 with a high number of recent reports nationally. Missouri had 29 UFO reports in June 2014 – the 4th highest reporting state – while California had 107 reports as the highest reporting state. The above quotes were edited for clarity.

It was a calm morning in Antarctica’s remote Ross Sea, during the season when the sun never sets, when Capt. John Bennett and his crew hauled up a creature with tentacles like fire hoses and eyes like dinner plates from a mile (1.6 km) below the surface.
The monster from the deeps was a colossal squid, one of the sea’s most elusive species, weighing 350 kilograms (770 pounds) and as long as a minibus. The maximum estimated length of colossal squid is 14 meters (46 feet), a meter longer than even the giant squid, which is rarely found in polar waters.
They froze the squid, and it stayed on ice for eight months until Tuesday, when scientists in New Zealand got a long-anticipated chance to thaw out the animal and inspect it — once they maneuvered it with a forklift into a tank.
The squid is a female. Its eight arms are each well over a meter (3.3 feet) long. Its two tentacles would have been perhaps double that length if they had not been damaged.
Kat Bolstad, a squid scientist from the Auckland University of Technology who was leading a team examining the creature, described it as “very big, very beautiful.”
“This is essentially an intact specimen, which is almost an unparalleled opportunity for us to examine,” she said. “This is a spectacular opportunity.”
Many people around the world agreed. About 142,000 people from 180 countries watched streaming footage of the squid examination on the Internet.
Colossal squid sometimes inhabit the world of fiction and imagination but have rarely been seen in daylight. Remarkably, Bennett and his crew on the toothfish boat San Aspiring have caught two of them. Their first, hauled in seven years ago, is on display in New Zealand’s national museum, Te Papa.
Bennett said there was so much excitement about his previous catch, he thought he had better save the latest one for research.
“It was partly alive; it was still hanging onto the fish,” Bennett recalled, “just a big bulk in the water. They’re huge, and the mantle’s all filled with water. It’s quite an awesome sight.”
Susan Waugh, a senior curator at Te Papa, said scientists hope to find out more about where the creature fits in the food chain, how much genetic variation there is among different squid types, and basic facts about how the colossal squid lives and dies.
She said scientists plan to further assess the condition of the squid before determining whether to preserve it for public display.
Bolstad said it is possible that ancient sightings of the species gave rise to tales of the kraken, or giant sea-monster squid. She said sperm whales often eat colossal squid and are known to play with their food, and sailors may have mistaken that for epic battles.
“On the other hand, we don’t really know what the grog rations were like at that time at sea, either,” she said. “So it may be that we’ve got a bit of a fisherman’s story going on there, too.” – Japan Times
2/28/2014 – I was driving to Ohio from Va. and was less then 10min from home when I noticed to my left “south” in a field a red turned white light ascending @2:00 and went out. This is an open corn field with Nothing around. I drove another half mile then turned south and then noticed an emensely bright white light going same direction a quater mile to my left then I turned West and looked back and it was still visible. I drove another two miles before turning left “south” again and seen the light heading south west. I continue driving a quarter before turning into my driveway and as I backed up to my garage “facing south” I noticed the light “floating” as it seemed to slowly come my direction. I watched it for 2-3 min before remembering I’d purchased a camcorder that arrived while I was in Va. and went and grabbed it and recorded it for quite somd time. This was thee Brightest white light I’d Ever seen in the sky and was amazed when I zoomed in and started to record. I’ve attached 4 stills off the flip out screen from my phone cam, so a pic from a pic. I apologize on not uploading the video as Im in transistion of moving and havent transferred the video. – MUFON CMS
The USS Hornet is a real aircraft carrier that was used in WWII. The following experiences are entirely true, and are still creepy as I think about them.
When I was about 9 years old, 7 years ago, I was in Boy Scouts. We went on a small, say field trip, to go see the USS Hornet, which as they said was haunted, I found out later they weren’t just trying to scare us. Anyway, we went around the ship with a guide learning about it, hearing there had been deaths on the ship after it was hit with a torpedo. After the whole tour, our group was going to stay the night and live out the next day exactly how the crew did back during the war. The cafeteria etc.
That night I went to sleep in a top bunk in the barracks. During the middle of the night, I woke up to go to the bathrooms, Now the ship is almost completely dark, being that the only lights on are the red emergency lights, so people can find their way to the bathrooms. So as I’m walking down the hall I hear stomping above me (now I was tired and didn’t think about the fact that you wouldn’t even be able to hear a gunshot from the floor above, being that the floors are 3 layers of titanium.) and I thought it was a few kids running around, so I turn around and go towards the stairs as I’m still hearing the stomping. So as I get up to the next floor I walk down the hall, I couldn’t see all the way down because of the lighting, I still hear stomping in the darkness. I walk all the way to the end, which is a dead end and the sound stops. I was tired, so I wasn’t alarmed, I returned to go to the bathroom, and I hear the noise again. I check another time, same thing happened again, and I started to worry. I ignore the noise the third time and go straight to the bathroom, as I’m walking to the bathroom I pass the prison cells they have in the ship, and the pillows that are meant to be on the beds are all on the middle of the floor. I run into the bathroom and every sink and toilet are just rushing water, so I think forget this if I piss myself it’s better than going in here. I go back into the barracks and climb into the bunk.
I wake up the next morning before everyone else and I’m laying on the cold floor under the other bunks, and there’s no way I could have fell, they were like hammocks, and if it were a prank, I’m a very light sleeper and it wouldn’t have worked. To this day, I still don’t understand the events that occurred that night. Look at this through a 9 year old’s eyes. – Reddit.com
The case of the London mermaid is classic folklore. Here was an alleged creature, brought to the capital by a Captain Eades, who purchased the specimen in 1822 from fisherman in Holland, who claimed they’d obtained it from Japanese anglers. Eades illegally sold his one-eighth ownership of a vessel to fund his purchase. At the time the mermaid certainly looked real, a leathery chimera with a head like a baboon, the lower half of a large fish, the nose, breasts, fingers, nails and eyes of a human, and a body measuring over three feet in length.
Eades decided to take his mermaid on tour after docking at several harbours and making a quick profit from locals eager to observe the monstrosity. From here, the devious captain would take to London and see his creature exhibited at the Turf Coffeehouse in St James Street, where he rented a room from a Mr Watson.
Many naturalists and the like who saw the creature all agreed it was in fact a real mermaid.
A MERMAID!! – A wonder of the world, the admiration of all ages, the theme of the Philosopher, the Historian, the Poet…may be seen at number 59 St James Street, every day, Sundays excepted from ten in the morning until five in the afternoon. Admittance one shilling.
…so read the sign which attracted thousands of curious people.
Despite making a lot of money from the specimen, the bubble would soon burst. A Mr Pickering who owned a majority of the ship that Eades sold was on the rampage, and soon showed the captain up for what he was, a fraud. Meanwhile, a Mr Clift, expert anatomist, was quick to pour cold water on the authenticity of the beast. The mermaid was simply a clever construction of fish, human bone, artificial material, and monkey!
The public had been ripped off. Chaos ensued. Eades attempted to flog a dead horse for the next few months until the coffeehouse shut down in 1823. No-one really knows what happened to the fraudulent creature but London had never seen anything quite like it. – Londonist
Is this mystery rock a dinosaur or just a hoax? Experts divided by discovery of ‘150 million-year-old fossil’ in Siberia. Fisherman in Siberia claim to have found remarkably intact remains of an ancient lizard. They supposedly found the crocodile-like head while on a fishing trip and when they sent photos to experts they were told it was likely a lizard or dinosaur from 150 million years ago.
According to Daily Mail “The discovery was made by fisherman from the Wild North Fishing Club were travelling by boat down the Ruta-Ru River in the Yamal Peninsula of northern Russia. Their boat struck something that they initially thought was a boulder, but on closer examination had a somewhat more familiar appearance. Paleontologists are now heading to the river in Siberia to verify the potentially significant discovery.”
Scientists took one more step closer to confirming that the possibility of life on Mars. The Nakla meteorite which fell to Earth over a century ago revealed to a team of scientists “a fossilized biological cell”. Its structure resembles biological cells on Earth.
The cell brings more news that life on Mars existed. Another fact revealed that water existed within this cell from Mars. Water is a key ingredient for life. We are discovering that water is more common in the universe than we thought. In fact we discovered water on Titan, Ceres, Moon, and Mars just to name a few. Water vapor cloud is whirling around a black hole. Step by step the discoveries emerge and we get closer and closer to the announcement that life exists beyond Earth.
Plankton discovered on the ISS survives the freezing temperatures of space, antigravity, and lack of oxygen. According to this meteorite, other cells can too. Streptococcus mitis found on a camera left on the moon brought back by Apollo 12 in 2007 declared from contamination of NASA labs. We now know that plankton and other biological cells may survive the harsh conditions of space. We need to ask were we to hasty in declaring the sample contaminated. One man opposed the idea of contamination and Lieutenant Colonel Fred Mitchell made a point that delayed growth indicated only one specific species instead of a variety. Who knows Mitchell may have been right but the government didn’t continue research in that line because the sample was destroyed. Americans were not ready for life existing on the Moon or anywhere else. It appears the governments are inching toward the reality that life can exist outside of Earth. I’m hoping in our life time the announcement will be made. We sure are close.
(N.Morgan) There are many people who believe the Bible contradicts itself, but when you dig into the languages involved and the archaeology behind it, you will see it doesn’t contradict itself at all, but is proven to be fact. The interpretation of the Bible has been skewed and changed over the years, so I have chosen to go by the manuscripts and when you can either read the languages yourself or have a wonderful translators, you will see too, that archaeology indeed fits along with the verses of the Bible. The biggest misconception is that the earth is only 6,000 years old. Many preachers and pastors teach that and it is incorrect. We have the archaeological proof that isn’t true. When the Bible mentions this, it is referring to this dispensation (Point in time) or Earth Age.
In the intriguing video below goes over some of the finer points of this and much more in regards to the prophesies in the BIble.
Is het heelal een hologram, een computerprogramma, een zwart gat of een bubbel?
Is het heelal een hologram, een computerprogramma, een zwart gat of een bubbel?
Onze kennis over het heelal is beperkt en wat we weten is misschien niet eens juist. Wetenschappers zeggen dat het universum een hologram, een computerprogramma, een zwart gat of een bubbel is, en dat er manieren zijn om dat te testen.
Het Amerikaanse ministerie van Energie is gestart met een uniek experiment, de Holometer, dat duidelijkheid moet scheppen over bepaalde theorieën over onze wereld. Zo wordt onder meer onderzocht of we in een hologram leven. Net zoals personages op tv niet zouden weten dat hun 3D-wereld alleen bestaat op een 2D-scherm, zou het kunnen dat wij niet weten dat onze 3D-wereld alleen maar een illusie is.
Het idee is vergelijkbaar met een televisie, waarbij de pixels minder samenhang vertonen wanneer je te dicht bij het scherm zit. Die minuscule stukjes data vormen op een grotere afstand samen echter een herkenbaar beeld. De wetenschappers denken dat ons universum mogelijk op dezelfde manier is opgebouwd, met deeltjes die biljoenen keren kleiner zijn dan een atoom.
Computersimulatie
Een goede computersimulatie kan de werkelijkheid inmiddels indrukwekkend dicht benaderen. Maar misschien is het eigenlijk wel andersom en leven wij zélf in een computersimulatie. In een cruciale scène uit kaskraker The Matrix uit 1999 ziet hoofdpersoon Neo twee keer dezelfde kat voorbijkomen. Dat déjà vu, het vreemde gevoel dat je iets al eens eerder hebt meegemaakt, is een teken dat er gerommeld is met de simulatie waarin hij leeft.
Theoretisch natuurkundigen Silas Beane, Zoreh Davoudi en Martin Savage stellen dat we mogelijk in een computersimulatie leven zonder het te weten. Ze zeggen dat we in de toekomst kunnen vaststellen of we al dan niet in een Matrix leven.
Zwart gat
Er zijn ook natuurkundigen die beweren dat het universum tot stand is gekomen nadat een vierdimensionale ster in elkaar klapte en veranderde in een zwart gat dat materiaal uitspuwde. Wetenschappers van de Universiteit van Waterloo in Canada wijzen erop dat enkele zaken in het heelal niet in het oerknalmodel passen, zoals het horizonprobleem. Het universum heeft een vrijwel uniforme temperatuur, wat vreemd is na een gewelddadige gebeurtenis als de Big Bang.
Een ander probleem is dat we in het huidige heelal geen magnetische monopolen (deeltjes met één magnetische pool) kunnen vinden, terwijl die – als het universum uit de oerknal is ontstaan – in groten getale zouden moeten voorkomen.
Multiversum
De kosmische inflatie, dat het heelal honderden miljarden keren uitbreidde in een fractie van een seconde, voedt het idee van een multiversum, het concept dat er naast het zichtbare universum waar we in leven nog veel (volgens sommigen oneindig veel) andere universa zijn, net zoals ‘bubbels in een glas champagne’.
De kosmische inflatie kan betekenen dat het universum slechts een klein hoekje van de ruimte inneemt waar de inflatie gestopt is en materie gecondenseerd is met de vorming van sterrenstelsels en leven tot gevolg. Voorbij het zichtbare universum dijt de ruimte mogelijk nog steeds uit en worden er – wanneer ook daar de inflatie op een bepaalde plaats ophoudt – nieuwe ‘bubbels’ gevormd.
Human Spaceflight Launches Will Return to the United States
Human Spaceflight Launches Will Return to the United States

NASA has just announced that Boeing and SpaceX have been selected to lead the Commercial Crew Program, founded in 2010. Boeing’s CST-100 and SpaceX’s Dragon V2 will be used to launch humans into Low Earth Orbit and to the International Space Station from Cape Canaveral beginning in 2017. This will be the first human spaceflight launch on American soil since the space shuttle program retired in 2011.
Since the end of the shuttle program, American astronauts headed to the ISS have had to bum a ride from Russia at a rate of $71 million per seat. However, the desire to be in charge of their own launches has been highlighted in recent months due to strained relations with Russia over the invasion of Ukraine. The United States government put sanctions on Russia and severed most of its ties back in April, except for its dealings with the ISS. In retaliation, Russia has threatened to stop providing transportation for American astronauts.
A key difference between the space shuttle program and this new venture is that the spacecraft will be provided by privately-owned corporations, and the government will be contracting out those services. This allows for companies to compete for contracts, driving down the cost and boosting innovative designs.
It is a modified version of the Dragon spacecraft that SpaceX has been using to bring cargo to the ISS since 2010. A major feature of the seven-seated spacecraft is the ability for controlled landings. This means that in addition to going to the ISS, the spacecraft could be used to bring humans to the moon or other worlds. The advanced landing system also means the spacecraft can be collected and reused quickly. This cuts down on wasted materials, which subsequently reduces the expense of each launch. The Dragon V2 will launch using SpaceX's own Falcon 9 rocket.

Boeing was the heavy favorite going into today’s announcement, with its CST-100 spacecraft.
The body design is unique as it does not include any welded junctions. This makes the vessel lighter, more structurally sound, and easier to produce. Each vessel, which seats seven, can be used 10 times. Upon returning to Earth, the spacecraft will land using parachutes and airbags. Additionally, struts within the seat will provide added cushioning, reducing the stress of impact on the astronauts. The CST-100 will launch using an Atlas V rocket, produced by United Launch Alliance. ULA is a joint venture between Boeing and Lockheed Martin.
NASA has been using private companies to bring cargo to the ISS over the last few years. The ability to contract human transportation to and from the ISS frees NASA up to focus on human ventures deeper into space (such as Mars). NASA’s Space Launch System will launch an unmanned Orion spacecraft in 2017, with the goal of the first manned mission in 2021.
A plane has been in space for 600 days, and no one knows why
A plane has been in space for 600 days, and no one knows why
EDITOR by Tristan Rayner in Exhale on Wednesday 30 April 2014
The X-37B is a kind of robotic space plane, built by the US. It’s been in Earth’s orbit for more than 500 days. And its real purpose is a complete mystery. Intrigued?
Here’s what we do know about X-37B Constructed in California, the Boeing-built X-37B Orbital Space Vehicle was built for the US Air Force as a test vehicle; not intended to reach production. It is a quarter the size of the Endeavour Space Shuttle. It is equipped with heat-shield protection for re-entry to Earth’s atmosphere.
Currently the X-37B is orbiting at 28,044km/h, at a distance of around 350km in the sky. It can land, but no one will say when that will be.
“I’ll give you my standard line on X-37,” General William Shelton, commander of the Air Force Space Command told Space.com in May. “X-37 is doing great. I can’t tell you what it’s doing, but it’s doing great.”
It’s been in the sky before, after being launched on April 22, 2010, on a rocket. It then landed on December 3, 2010 – blowing a tire and suffering minor damage to its underbelly.
It took off again from Cape Canaveral on December 11, 2012 – now reaching 500 days in orbit.
The Air Force also launched a second model of X-37B on March 5, 2011. Described by the U.S.
military as an “effort to test new space technologies”, it landed safely at Vandenberg Air Force Base on June 16, 2012, after 469 days in space. This third mission has now smashed this previous record. X-37B’s actual functions are still heavily classified.
As you’d imagine, conspiracy theorists are having a field day, and here’s why:
Powered by a solar panel that unfurls once in orbit, X-37B can open with small, shuttle-like payload bay in its middle – think of a clamshell opening from underneath. There’s room for more than just a solar panel too. Exactly what items it carries, and why they need to be in space so long, has proved elusive for analysts, the space community, and the media.
To add further intrigue, the plane is classified as a secret project, yet maker Boeing has released pictures and more than two pages of details on the X-37B. That’s not how secrets are usually dealt with. By contrast, the secretLockheed SR-71 Blackbird was not declassified until decades after it had been flown in the Vietnam War.
The X-37 started life way back in 1999 when NASA asked Boeing’s Phantom Works division to develop an orbital test vehicle. This was a civilian project, and the X-37 was originally spec’d as an unmanned, robotic spacecraft that would rendezvous with satellites to refuel, repair them, or crash them back to Earth once their lifecycle was complete. But in 2004 the project was transferred to DARPA and since then, it has been highly classified.
The amateur skywatching community that documents satellites say it’s orbiting between 43.5 degrees north latitude to 43.5 degrees south latitude. That’s a band around the middle of Earth that takes in much of the US, Middle East, and Asia, but is away from Russia, and Europe. Spotters suggest that at the altitude of 350km, it is ideal altitude for spying, but too low to refuel or fix other satellites.
It’s versatile, and has worked well enough that Boeing is contracted to create the next model, the X-37C. It will be at least 65 per cent larger and have the ability to carry up to six astronauts, while operating unmanned.

What we can guess The two most popular theories suggest the vehicle is simply running an extended duration test – a marathon in space. The other theory is that the two previous missions prove the testing phase is complete, and it is now on an extended operation running a mission, or multiple missions. The long endurance run theory has credit; proving that new, experimental critical components can work reliably for a long-duration in space, close to Earth.
The running-mission has credit too – with two previous missions complete, X-37B can now operate at length. And perhaps it is – observing, spying, experimenting, hosting space-weapons, or collecting data for the NSA. We just don’t know.
Both theories are plausible. Joan Johnson-Freese, a professor of National Security Affairs at the U.S. Naval War College, told Space.com, “While the classified nature of the X-37B has raised some concerns about its intended operational purposes, technically, the program must be commended for doing something new… and successfully.”
She speculated X-37′s payload would include new sensors and satellite hardware to be tested.
What it isn’t Plenty of conspiracy theorist have posed the question of X-37B carrying a nuclear payload, to guarantee a ‘first strike’ opportunity (or to have a counter-option in place).
If you have any hope for humanity, that can’t be right. The US is a signatory to The Space Treaty, which is no joke. Space-based weapons of mass destruction are banned.

Amazing UFO sighting over Baltic Sea, Poland on 9th September 2014
Amazing UFO sighting over Baltic Sea, Poland on 9th September 2014
New amazing video footage of a huge bright UFO sighting recorded in the sky above Baltic Sea, Poland on 9th September 2014.
Witness said: Waiting for your comments . Surely this is not a giveaway in the wind … I would add that this phenomenon of light appeared twice. First, there is one cluster of lights, and after a few minutes of the second . In all three films are connected. The date is 9-09-2014 around 18:17.
For the first time, astronomers have detected water ice clouds, like the ones that shroud Earth, around a dim celestial body outside of our solar system.
"Ice clouds are predicted to be very important in the atmospheres of planets beyond our solar system, but they've never been observed outside of it before now," study leader Jacqueline Faherty, who is a fellow at the Carnegie Institution for Science in Washington, D.C., said in a statement.

Ice water has been found around gas giants in our solar system. NASA's Cassini spacecraft recently detected water ice crystals on Saturn that had been churned up from deep inside the ringed planet's thick atmosphere during a huge storm. Water ice clouds are also hidden underneath Jupiter's stormy ammonia ice clouds.
Now, scientists found faint signatures of such clouds around the brown dwarf WISE J085510.83-071442.5, or W0855 for short. The object is the coldest brown dwarf ever observed by scientists. It lurks 7.2 light-years away from Earth and was first seen by NASA's Wide-Field Infrared Explorer.
Brown dwarfs are often referred to as failed stars that resemble planets. These objects start out as clouds of collapsing gas and dust much like their main-sequence star cousins. But brown dwarfs never get hot enough for hydrogen fusion to start at the core, and the close-packed stellar material reaches a stable state. Sometimes, these objects are confused with freestanding planets because they look so much like gas giants; many of them are even cold enough to maintain their own atmospheres.
Faherty and colleagues used the FourStar near infrared camera at Las Campanas Observatory in Chile to take 151 images of W0855 over three nights. Scientists had previously predicted how thick water clouds around such a chilly brown dwarf would scatter light. This telltale pattern was observed around W0855. The team also detected evidence of sulfide ice clouds in the atmosphere.
"This object is so faint and it's exciting to be the first people to detect it with a telescope on the ground," study researcher Chris Tinney, an astronomer at the Australian Centre for Astrobiology, at the University of New South Wales, said in a statement.
The findings were published in the Astrophysical Journal Letters on Tuesday (Sept. 9). A draft version of the paper can be read online at the preprint service arxiv.org.
A hedge fund manager is the latest to embark on one of the most ancient of human quests: immortality.
Joon Yun, president of $1 billion health care-focused Palo Alto Investors, announced a new prize last week that will award $1 million to researchers who can “hack the code of life and cure aging.”
“The current health care system is doing a remarkable job addressing the diseases of aging,” Yun, also a trained doctor, said in a statement. “However, doing so without solving the underlying process of aging produces escalating effects on health care spending. We need a paradigmatic revolution. The aim of the prize is to catalyze that revolution.”
Yun, 46, doesn’t lack pedigree. He’s board-certified in radiology and served on the clinical staff at Stanford Hospital from 2000 to 2006. Yun received his bachelor of arts in biology from Harvard University and his doctorate from Duke University School of Medicine.
The $1 million “Palo Alto Longevity Prize” will be split in two, but teams can try for both. One $500,000 award will go to the first team to show, using a mammal for testing, that it can restore a youthful heart rate to an aging adult. The second $500,000 pot will be awarded to the first group that can extend lifespan by 50 percent.
Eleven teams have already signed up to compete and more can apply. They include researchers from Stanford, George Washington University and Washington University in St. Louis who will experiment with gene modification and the hormone oxytocin.
“Now is the time to launch this prize because we have reached the point in science where we really do have the opportunity to solve aging,” Dr. Doris Taylor, director of the regenerative medicine research at Texas Heart Institute, said in a statement. Taylor is a leader of an initial team competing for the prize using a stem cell approach.
Prize organizers are also working with private investors and foundations to provide access to additional money to the teams. The effort’s advisory board includes Eric Weinstein of Thiel Capital, Graham Spencer of Google Ventures and Steve Jurvetson of Draper Fisher Jurvetson. – CNBC
Gresham, OR – March 6th is when I saw these things coming through my front door. They’ve been doing this since 3/6/14. I was woke up from white noise cranked through my stereo, which was on an odd am station, which I never use. all my electronics were on the blink so I reset it all. then out of the corner of my eye I saw the first one flying about 4 ft off the ground and cruising up the walkway straight into my front door and into my house. I have it on video, outside and inside as they come and go. they’re very strange behaving entities.
I have hours of video. Its freaked me out. these things are real. – MUFON CMS
NOTE: Very similar to Paul Cochrane’s case, which I investigated in 2009 in Perth, Western Australia. Here is a brief synopsis of that case:
In June 2009, I received an email from Paul Cochrane of Perth, Western Australia in reference to persistent paranormal activity in his home. The content of the letter exhibited frustration and a plea to help find an individual or group in his general area to investigate. He explained that the entities have been present for 14 years and have followed him to each new home, a total of three different locations. Paul had started to document the events on videotape then placing these on YouTube.
At the time, I was involved in a few other projects so I didn’t initially get started until a few days had passed. To be honest, I receive a multitude of emails daily from my readers and Paul’s email was in the queue. Eventually, I went to his YouTube channel and started to watch the clips. Well, I shot off an email to Paul within a few minutes and offered my help.
Immediately, I posted a notice on the Phantoms and Monsters wiki and the IPAA site asking for assistance. I knew that this would require the effort of several people who had experience in different facets of the paranormal. The response was slow at first, but as time went on and Paul started to post more videos of the activity, my friends and associates came to the call.
For approximately three weeks, there was a steady discussion on our wiki threads. It seemed that each day, Paul would post a more compelling video and state that the entities had faces and animate shapes, as well as making a rudimentary effort to communicate with him. To bolster his claim, his young son also acknowledged the activity. Each new video displayed orbs of various shapes and sizes. Occasionally, hundreds of these orbs would move in and out of walls and furniture in all directions and speeds within minutes. I and others tried to enhance screen captures on a daily basis hoping something tangible would appear. Then it happened.
I received a hurried email from Paul titled ‘got a face’. I had just awakened and hadn’t had a chance to start the coffee maker, so I was still a bit groggy. I went over to his YouTube channel and looked at one of the two new videos. Early on in the first video I brought up (#70 at 0.11 as a matter of fact) was an orb traveling across the screen that had visible structure to it. Paul had inscribed on the screen ‘this is the face orb now she’s posing 4 me’. I took a screen capture, enlarged the image and enhanced the contrast. My God! It’s a face! Right away, I uploaded the image to the wiki and directly to several associates as well as posting it on Phantoms and Monsters.
As you can imagine, I have conversed with many people in the paranormal field since the beginning of my involvement in this sojourn. Let me state that my theory does not directly reflect the opinion of anybody connected to this incident. This includes Paul, my associates and others who have helped in this matter. I make these statements solely as my personal assessment.
OK…here we go. I believe this entity, in particular ‘The Face in the Orb’, to be a spirit of a young female hybrid being. As to other entities, apparitions, etc. that are present at this location…I cannot state or determine what these are until further study is done. When I refer to ‘hybrid’, I mean a mixing of DNA of an alien or non-human species and humans. As to where this hybrid came from, I have no solid evidence. The reference ‘spirit’ simply means that this being died at some point and released some type of life force or energy that presents itself on our plane of existence. The fact that the orbs in the videos seem to effortlessly move in and out of sight tends to reinforce a theory that these spirits can crossover to other dimensions. I am convinced that these entities are attracted to Paul for a specific reason, if only to collect energy, and have no intention of moving on…at least for the time being.
Sean ‘The Forkchop’ Forker has asked me to post the following message:
Folks, I am looking for some pretty frightening tales for an upcoming episode of The ForkCAST. Looking for some genuinely scary moments! These will be shared on air, so use discretion when indulging information. Email submissions to frightmares@theforkchop.net – Thanks All! /SF
Homeowner Bill Michaud says, “It started with random beeping. One time it went off like the food was done, and when I looked over, the damn thing was still going and said 6:66.” Unfortunately for Michaud and his family, this spooky occurrence was just the beginning of a long, kitchen-appliance nightmare.
“We found [the microwave] in the attic when we moved in a few months back. Didn’t have one, so figured, ‘what the hell,’ might as well try it,” says Michaud. “I tell you, the thing heats up the food real nice. Sometimes it beeped or turned itself off in the middle of cooking, though. Then really weird things started happening. It zapped at food as if we were putting shards of metal in it. I couldn’t figure it out.”
His wife Betty adds, “It turns on by itself. It turns off by itself, too. It’s like it’s messing with me. No matter how many times I popped the door shut, the minute I leave the room it pops open again. One night, really late, I walk into the kitchen and I’m about to open the fridge, and the microwave door flies open, lighting the whole kitchen up in a horrible, scary lightning-blue color. It’s like it wanted to electrocute me.”
The Michauds contacted the Kansas Ghost Hunter group right away. Founder Kevin Young was eager to study both the microwave and the entire home in general.
“The Michauds didn’t want to go without a microwave, or risk upsetting the spirit by taking it out of the house. We obtained permission to stay the night and study the phenomena in its natural environment,” said Young. “My wife, who is also on my squad, is highly empathic. As we warmed up TV dinners in the microwave, she sensed a presence. As soon as she mentioned it, the microwave started beeping repeatedly. The door flung open, and my Hungry Man dinner went flying across the room. We pressed the off button. We unplugged it. It beeped several times after we cut off the power. Of course our digital recording became corrupted, which often happens when there is such strong energy.”
Young called in paranormal investigator, and self-proclaimed authority on mechanical-possession, Carl Richards. He believes it is not a ghost, but a poltergeist that takes possession of the microwave.
“I followed the situation that the Michauds were facing from the beginning, as they posted their disturbances on Facebook. I keep an eye on all local ghost-hunter hobbyists and groups,” said Richards. “The EMF readings confirmed this supernatural manifestation is a poltergeist. I have seen poltergeists occupy washers, TVs, electric heaters, but this is the first time I have seen microwave possession first-hand.”
When Richards was asked if the Michauds should get a new microwave , he advised, “It is important to remember, the malevolent presence does not strictly ‘live in’ the microwave. Getting rid of the machine will not solve the problem. It has the ability to travel throughout the electrical wiring in the house.”
“It is best not to engage the being,” continued Young. “Try not to be fearful. Always remain calm. If you’re facing a poltergeist in your kitchen devices, just ignore its outbursts, and it will not be able to feed off your energies.”
Betty Michaud agrees with Young’s advice. “I think he knows what he’s talking about. It didn’t start getting really bad until we paid attention to it. Now we just ignore it like we would ignore a child’s temper-tantrum, and it still randomly shuts off or zaps from time to time, but nothing really serious. It still heats up our leftovers like a champ, too.” – Empire News

A giant man-eating catfish that has been terrorizing villagers of a region at the border of Burma, Laos and Thailand has finally been caught in the Mekong river and what they found in it’s belly will horrify you.
The beast that was caught by local Khmu tribe fishermen of the local Laotian village of Luang Pang near the convergence of the borders of Burma, Laos and Thailand, revealed to have within it’s stomach the human bone fragments of what experts have estimated to be between 12 and 22 people, children for the most part, a find that left villagers and scientists alike in a state of suspended horror.
“We estimate the beast weighted around 600 pounds or next to 300 kilos since it’s head, tail and fins had been chopped off by local villagers before biologists were aware of the catch and could examine the body” explains biologist Kalaina Maona, from the National University of Laos’s Natural Science Department.
Villagers were horrified when they found within the beast’s belly the remnants of what seemed to be a human baby carcass, recalls local fisherman Kuen Mohk, fighting to hold back his tears.
Dozens of childrens and a handful of elderly people have been reported missing in the past twenty years from the local area, leading some local authorities to claim the beast was behind the wave of disappearances. Rumors of a giant river monster capturing villagers were common amongst elder villagers but thought to be folklore, until recently, by local law enforcement.
“Legends of river creatures preying on local tribesmen have been part of Khmu culture for centuries” explains anthropologist Mary Stewart Hedger from McGill University in Montreal. “This terrible incident somewhat proves these folktales had some dramatic and traumatizing truth behind their origin” she adds. – WNDR
The Mekong giant catfish is a species of catfish in the shark catfish family. It is grey to white in colour and is distinguished by the near-total lack of barbels and the absence of teeth.
Size:
Length: 3m Weight: 300kg
Habitat and Ecology
The Mekong giant catfish is the world’s largest freshwater fish and is endemic to the Mekong River. It migrates huge distances to spawn.
Population and Distribution
It is now only found in the mainstream of the Lower Mekong in Myanmar, Lao PDR, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam. It used to be relatively common further north along the Thai-Lao PDR border but is now extremely rare in this area.
Scientists estimate that the total number of Mekong giant catfish have decreased by around 90% in the last decade. No population figures are available, and estimates of the decline are based on the fall in the number of specimens caught, Some experts believe there may only be a few hundred Mekong giant catfish surviving.
What are the main threats?
Threats to the Mekong giant catfish, and several other giant migratory fish species in the Mekong, include infrastructure development such as dams that block migration routes and isolate some populations. Without the ability to move up and down rivers, the fish have fewer opportunities to breed.
A further major factor in the decline of the Mekong giant catfish is over-fishing. – WWF
A lunar-crescent-shaped stone monument that dates back around 5,000 years has been identified in Israel. Located about 8 miles (13 kilometers) northwest of the Sea of Galilee, the structure is massive — its volume is about 14,000 cubic meters (almost 500,000 cubic feet) and it has a length of about 150 meters (492 feet), making it longer than an American football field. Pottery excavated at the structure indicates the monument dates to between 3050 B.C. and 2650 B.C., meaning it is likely older than the pyramids of Egypt. It was also built before much of Stonehenge was constructed.
Several Florida witnesses at Ponce Inlet who were drawn into the street after hearing a loud humming sound about 10:15 p.m. on September 15, 2014, reported watching a low flying object with lights that hovered nearby, according to testimony in Case 59867 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The reporting witness heard the humming sound for five to eight seconds and first thought it might be someone’s garage door opening.
“But it was unusual, unlike anything we ever heard before,” the witness stated. “It was so loud it caused alarm. So we immediately went outside. Several neighbors went outside to express concern and alarm. The dogs in the neighborhood were barking and then they got very quiet.”
The witness looked north and saw an object hovering low in the sky. Pictured: Ponce Inlet, Florida. (Credit: Google)
Then the witness looked directly north of their home.
“I saw in the direct path of my home and my neighbor’s home some very low lights in the sky, amber in color, and changing color with some reds. We watched it for about one minute. It was stationary at this time, and then it started to move to the west very slowly without sound. It was about one-half mile away at this time.”
The witness then drove to a 7-11 convenience store about a half-mile away.
“I asked the attendant – did he hear any strange noise? He said, yes, and all the power went out just in the 7-11. This would put the object’s path directly over the 7-11 at the time of seeing the lights. The attendant said the computers all failed and nothing was working. After the lights dimmed the object could not be seen any longer.”
The witness later interviewed a clerk at a nearby 7-11 convenient store who said his store lost power as the object moved overhead. Pictured: Ponce Inlet, Florida. (Credit: Google)
The witness then heard a helicopter which seemed to be strange for the hour.
“I heard a helicopter about 15 minutes after the object was seen. I did not see the helicopter. I found this strange because in the beach community it is extremely quiet and we do not get air traffic so late.”
Ponce Inlet is a town in Volusia County, Florida, population 3,032. Florida MUFON is investigating. Florida has a current UFO Alert Rating of 3 with a high number of recent reports nationally. Florida had 26 UFO reports in August 2014 – the 5th highest reporting state – while California had 99 reports as the highest reporting state. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.
The UFO Alert Rating System is based on five levels – 1 through 5 – where states with 150 or more reports for the month are rated an Alert 1; states with 100 or more reports are rated an Alert 2; 25 reports or more for the month are rated an Alert 3; 13 or more reports are rated an Alert 4; and those states with less than 13 reports for the month are an Alert 5.
They return every so often, especially when the weather grows cold and the media runs out of stuff to talk about, or the story runs afoul of a hungry editor starving for a juicy ration of paranormal ghoulishness.
The flaps of “cow mutilations” or cases involving “cattle mutilations” represent a branch phenomenon of popular ufology or the urge to find evidence of extraterrestrial activity on Earth. It is also kept alive, however, by other media-created mysteries, such as the Chupacabras, or it receives a dose of crafty explanations such as those built by conspiracy theorists (which should not be cast aside, despite their minimal diffusion, as these are often turned into successful sci-fi scripts).
On August 25 of this year, the La Nación newspaper published another news item. Last year another appeared in Tucumán, and if we keep searching, or google back even further, there isn’t a year that does not include a report on this mystery that proves hard to extinguish. Likewise, we find a more intensive presence in provinces such as Entre Rios, where local UFO groups – highly interested in the matter – publicize accounts that would otherwise go unnoticed.
In 2002, this phenomenon manifested itself in Argentina with unprecedented strength. Personally, its importance was such that a chapter based on the matter displaced another on the mysteries of Capilla del Monte in my book Invasores: Historias Reales de Extraterrestres en Argentina (Sudamericana, 2009).
The following is an abbreviated version of the most theoretical part of the chapter included in Invasores:
12 years ago, Argentina experienced its first ufological cow-icide. I started in April and reached its climax in June 2002, particularly in the province of Buenos Aires and the Pampean region. Farmhands, cattlemen and local residents woke up to find dead cows of all breeds and ages all over the place. Dozens of bovine carcasses rested near circles of flattened grass, near empty water tanks – drained by who knows what and for which reason – and others in unusual circumstances.
All of the animals presented as “proof” of the flap bore similar injuries: their edges were irregular, as though cauterized. According to farmhands and cattlemen, these incisions appeared to have a purpose. Their carcasses had been despoiled of their soft tissue (tongue, eyes, ears, nipples, genitals, udders) and sometimes they appeared exsanguinated. Locals would sink their knives into them and the blade would emerge dry, as if they had been plunged into a piece of pound cake.
The discovery of over two hundred mutilated animal carcasses was reported in less than three months, a ruthless and doubtful notion, but giving the impression that an intelligence had been at work and the deaths were not due to natural causes, such as the onset of the cold of winter or seasonal diseases followed by the instinct of certain predators looking for nourishment. Agreement between cattlemen, journalists, policemen and ufologists was overwhelming: the incisions looked artificial. These animals filled the ranks of the bizarre while predator activity was dismissed by some veterinarians in their homilies. The cult of the mutilated cow was confected by all of them, with or without an awareness of the subject.
The flap ended almost if by decree. On July 1, 2002, the National Food Safety and Quality Service (SENASA) blamed the weather and carrion animals. Presto: a mystery cauterized.
The official body stated that rodents belonging to the Oxymycterus rufus genus – among other vermin – had devoured the cattle in fine gourmet style while other victims lay dead as a result of ice storms, disease or natural causes. Bernardo Cané, the head of the organization, stated: “We are dismissing Martians, the Pombero and other rural Argentinean beliefs.” (1) The sentence would have been less odious if Cané had not ascribed the mutilations to “esoteric practices” a week earlier. (2) Forty-five days later he was dismissed from his position under suspicion of underhanded dealings. (3)
Other experts were also caught on the hop. Veterinarian Alejandro Martínez suspected “some sort of techno-cattle rustling” wielding the thermocauterizer (a pistol that fires darts) to underscore that the mysterious incisions could be caused by “any agency”. Pathologist Ernesto Odriozola supported “the actions of some madman”. Even the most experienced forensic pathologists stoked the mystery. Days later, SENASA disclosed the results of a necropsy performed on twenty animals collected from fifteen farms in different sections of Buenos Aires province. Cané presented his conclusions in a press conference: the cattle died “due to pneumonia, malnutrition, metabolic or infectious diseases that are highly prevalent during the winter season.” Thus, the mystery was halved: the mutilated cows…were already dead. The enigmatic incisions had been subsequently caused by various carrion animals, the red-muzzled mouse among them.
“Extraterrestrials Laugh at SENASA” proclaimed one of the screens of the Crónica TV channel. The mouse’s humorous moniker prompted the notion that it had all been a gag. It was around that time that I phoned Dr. Alejandro Soraci, one of the parties involved in the study conducted by Universidad Nacional del Centro (UNICEN). “Could you photocopy the report, and I’ll send for it?” But there was nothing to photocopy. The only material available, he explained, was the press release and the video of the mouse in action. SENASA results were simply two hastily drafted pages. The investigation could hardly be taken seriously with such apathy. “Why were mutilated cows found in places where the Oxymycterus isn’t found? And if it was the mouse, why didn’t SENASA undertake a campaign to control it?” wondered ufologist Quique Mario. To him, and to many other ufologist, the media oasis was deceitful. “Matters remain the same: nothing has changed. Two animals were found mutilated last Saturday, thirty kilometers from here. Last week there were five and seventeen down south, around Cuchillo Có,” he told me in mid-2003.
What factors were at play in unleashing the epidemic? Why now, and not before?
This is how SENASA – spokesman for official explanations – has belittled the human dimension of these experiences. Not everyone is willing to believe that cows are abducted by UFOs, or that a clandestine operation was set in motion to decimate the bovine population and attack those who came too close to the truth. It is also unfair that aliens should mock SENASA. The fact that the initial speculations of its experts should contradict the formal verdict speaks volumes about the fantasies that the mystery creates in all of them, scientists included. On the other hand, it doesn’t say as much about the quality of the study, which does not exempt SENASA from the mistake of making a pronouncement before the results were in hand.
The red-muzzled mouse’s leading role gave the matter an almost humorous cast: The scene-stealing and headline-grabbing mouse obscured the investigation’s credibility. It is possible that the media stressed the rodent’s involvement because there can be nothing better than a Supermouse to displace a Chupacabras. The irregular, serrated tooth marks of the Oxymycterus rufus appeared on the skin and bones of the analyzed animals. Those marks explained the origin of the strange incisions, some of them described as perfect circles. “Ever since Tom and Jerry, we know that a [mouse hole] has a circular opening. Rodents stand up and work from top to bottom,” explained Fernando Kravetz, full professor of Ecology in the School of Exact and Natural Sciences of the University of Buenos Aires. “The rodent population grew with the increase in the availability of dead animals due to classic diseases, changes in vegetation and pastures deteriorated by the ice storms. Crops are harvested in March and the weather changed abruptly in April.” (4)
The quantity and dispersion of dead animals did not startle the professor, considered the main expert in rural ecology. “If three hundred mutilations were reported, the existence of a total of two thousand carcasses could be estimated. A congruent number for that time of year.” SENASA also mentioned less photogenic predators, such as the Pampas fox, seagulls and armadillos. But the red-muzzled mouse was on the cover, because the cow mutilation wave resulted in the casual discovery of an unexpected mutation in it dietary habits. Up to 2002, it was believed to be an insectivore, but it feasted on beef when given the chance. Kravitz measured the marks appearing on the cattle’s toughest tissue (such as the base of the tongue) and found the same patterns as in “cattle mutilations”.
Nor was SENASA the only agency to reach a prosaic conclusion. The Animal Health Group of the National Livestock Technology Institute (INTA Balcarce) studied ten cases. “The incisions and absence of internal organs, ears and nipples are due to action by predators found in the region.” The causes behind these animal deaths – when they could be ascertained – were not mysterious either (intestinal parasites, mineral deficiencies, metabolic diseases, malnutrition) as well as the cold and ice storms that blanketed the southeastern region (5).
What SENASA neglected to do – never mind other official agencies that were unresponsive to the mystery – was to find a hypothesis able to answer a question that can be stated in three ways: Why did men experienced in cattle activities feel certain that those incisions were qualitatively different from those caused by other predators? How can the belief about the phenomenon’s novelty be justified? What changed so that some more or less ordinary deaths should turn into an epidemic? Perhaps the answers would offer no consolation to cattlemen and others impressed by direct experience, but it is better to try to answer tough questions that feel the breath of the Chupacabras on the nape of one’s neck again.
Part II continues tomorrow: Wednesday, September 17, 2014!

[An interesting contrarian perspective on the cattle mutilation phenomenon by Alejandro Agostinelli - SC]
New research on a Martian meteorite supports the idea that Mars has the right conditions to support life.
Scientists from the UK and Greece found something interesting in a piece of the Nakhla meteorite, which fell to Earth in 1911 in Egypt. Dr Elias Chatzitheodoridis of the National Technical University of Athens first discovered the unusual feature embedded within the chunk of meteorite. He contacted his colleague, Professor Ian Lyon at the University of Manchester, to get his take on the odd structure.
“In many ways it resembled a fossilised biological cell from Earth but it was intriguing because it was undoubtedly from Mars,” explains Lyon. “Our research found that it probably wasn’t a cell but that it did once hold water – water that had been heated, probably as a result of an asteroid impact.”
Transmitted light photomicrographs of the odd structure. (Credit: Astrobiology)
The team’s discovery is significant because it adds more evidence to support the notion that Mars has, or had, the right conditions to support life beneath its surface. If large asteroids hit Mars in the past, as the evidence suggests, researchers believe it created long-lasting hydrothermal fields that warmed the subsurface of Mars, making it a habitable environment. “We have been able to show the setting is there to provide life,” Lyon explains. “It’s not too cold, it’s not too harsh. Life as we know it, in the form of bacteria, for example, could be there, although we haven’t found it yet. It’s about piecing together the case for life on Mars – it may have existed and in some form could exist still.”
Astrobiology.com reports that the team plans to investigate other materials in the meteorite sample in search of possible biological signatures that will provide scientific evidence of life on Mars, past or present.
The team’s recent findings are published in the journal Astrobiology in a paper titled, “A Conspicuous Clay Ovoid in Nakhla: Evidence for Subsurface Hydrothermal Alteration on Mars with Implications for Astrobiology.”
Other scientists, including former NASA astrobiologist Richard Hoover have published previous studies asserting the discovery of extraterrestrial life within Martian meteorites. Hoover even suspects that evidence of extraterrestrial life on Mars was intentionally destroyed.
Based on multiple studies, it’s becoming clearer that life once existed on Mars. The question remains: Is there life on Mars today? With data acquired by Curiosity and other Martian rovers, scientists believe the planet may still be habitable today. So it’s extremely likely that future studies will uncover additional evidence showing present-day life on Mars.
(N.Morgan) In the stunning video below, which was taken over the Baltic Sea off the coast of Poland. Check out the 2 min 8 second mark, the lights begin to descend in an orderly manner into the sea. This is reminiscent of a recent UFO Sighting in Sao Paulo Brazil. I would add that this phenomenon of light appeared twice. First, there is one cluster of lights, and after a few minutes of the second . In all three films are connected . The date is 9-09-2014 around 18:17.
These images leave plenty of room for questions and perhaps a few answers.
1. What was your prime motivation and inspiration to create your new book, “Crop Circles, Jung, and the Reemergence of the Archetypal Feminine”?
It’s very exciting to discover the abundance of science and archival historic record that demonstrates that there’s a genuine mystery before us (that’s chapters 1 and 2 of the book) and that’s fun to share, but the key to my interest is the psychological/symbolic meaning of the phenomenon in general. Much of what I look at is what’s there for us in terms of meaning that we’re not grasping. My work is about offering a platform by which readers can deepen their own appreciation of the meaning of this mysterious phenomenon.
2. What is your perception on Crop circles and how they are possibly created and the symbolism they portray?
I look at the mystery of Crop Circles as though it were a dream and the world is the dreamer–how then when we look for meaning? There’s many people out there looking for so-called solutions (or excuses to explain away the phenomenon) but very few looking toward how we might best approach it’s meaning for us today. The science and history of the phenomenon make clear that there is an Other that is creating Crop Circles, who or what that Other is, is not my prime interest. I’m interested in how we receive the phenomenon or fail to do so, how much of ourselves, our whole selves (including our heart, imagination and courage), do we bring to our reception of it?
Approaching the symbolic meaning of the phenomenon there are two primary constituent elements: circle & grain. Jung made clear that inside the human psyche, the circle is the most basic form of the mandala image, the Self, that part of us that seeks our growth, our connection to inner source and our recovery from imbalance. Grain is strongly associated with the archetypal Feminine, the miracle of life, the seed which dies and is reborn, the wonder of the expression of life throughout Nature. Our culture has lost it’s connection to this energy and instead lives in an imbalance toward archetypal Masculine ways of knowing that emphasize separation, objectivity and linear solutions. This imbalance has us very high on ourselves and imagining that we have all the answers and effectively allergic to mystery. As this profound imbalance is the dominant illness of our time, it’s no wonder that we face an expression of mystery in a media which symbolic of the archetypal Feminine.
3. How does Jung fit into your research and could you share some thoughts on him with us?
While the book is for general readership, it’s also an exercise in applied Jungian psychology. I explain Jung’s concepts in a way that everyone can understand and use the depth of his work to open up the deeper possibilities of meaning inherent in Crop Circles. Jung tells us that plant symbols point in “downward way, yin, the earth and the darkness of humanity” and that “the most profound problem afflicting the human psyche [is] an imbalance which favours masculine principles and archetypes over feminine ones.” Those two quotes alone point us in a meaningful direction.
In addition, I was led to discover documents which come as close as we’re ever going to get to discovering how Jung himself would’ve interpreted Crop Circles. After I finished writing a Master’s thesis on this topic, I found, on a dusty shelf in a Santa Barbara library, a pamphlet which contained dream images painted by Irene Champernowne, an art therapist in the English countryside, in 1951 which depict a UFO, feminine figures and swirling grain. Irene’s dream paintings were interpreted primarily by Toni Wolff (Jung’s closest companion) and later by Emma and Carl Jung. All felt that there was something deeply profound about the images and Carl chose one of them to be the cover of his book on UFO’s. Toni’s interpretation addressed the shift in the ages that we’re living through today and the need for a renewed contact with the archetypal Feminine.
4. Would you explain what you mean by the Reemergence of the Archetypal Feminine?
The archetypal Feminine and Masculine refer to psychological qualities that are inherent throughout Nature. Some prefer the term Lunar and Solar (or yin and yang). All of us, men and women alike, carry these both of these qualities and each of them has a shadow expression. While we can never fully express or exhaust the possibilities in an archetype, we gain sight of them very often through their polar differences. So, in the case, we can see the Masculine in its preference for separation, distinction, objectivity and the Feminine for connection, context, depth, feeling and mystery. The Masculine prefers certainty, knowing and solutions. The Feminine is able to hold all the pieces even when they don’t fit easily into a linear package. Both are required for psychological health.
Today our relation to the Feminine is a shadow one. The wonder of the miracle of life is repressed in us, denied in most of our cultural institutions and rarely honoured. Our children believe that food ‘comes from’ the store. Our Thanksgiving celebrations are closely related to the orgy of materialism that is holiday shopping. In Latin, mater means mother and that word is the root of the English words matter and materialism. We can see our shadow hunger for connection to the archetypal Feminine in our inexhaustible compulsive materialism. A healthy connection to this energy would require an authentic, full bodied emotional creative participation with that quality–a genuine heartfelt giving of thanks for all that we receive.
I believe the Feminine to be reemergent in the life of our time through increasing interest in things which exist outside of dominant cultural boxes and things which bring us into the body and take us into the mystery. The explosion of yoga and tantra, for example, and all of the interest in synchronicity and the apprehension of meaningful patterns throughout Nature.
5. I have to hear your thoughts on alien life.I have had some pretty significant UFO experiences in my life after being healed from cancer and my father’s death. I talk a lot about this on my show The Church of Mabus and books I’ve written. What is your perspective on alien life visiting Earth and society’s perception of this?
As a young child I witnessed a UFO with my grandmother that was on the front page of our local paper the next day and seen by thousands in our town. I believe, along with the vast majority of the human race today, that alien life is real. The question for me is–what do we mean when we say alien life? I pose that question to you and to everyone that reads my book or attends my talks. What do you really believe about aliens? Are they spiritual, physical, dimensional? Our era offers us no leaders with answers to all of our questions, it’s down to each of us to have our own journey. However, I often see people using their preferred answers to avoid doing the work of really sitting with the questions.
6. Could you share some more thoughts on researchers and Crop circles and what your findings have been and what their struggles consist of?
In the beginning of my book, I give thanks to the many researchers who’ve dedicated their lives and fortunes to pursuing this mystery. Most have given more than they’ll ever get back.
One of the most interesting things that we see in the experiences of Crop Circle researchers are synchronicities between them and formations. Occasionally, during their deepest moments of emotional engagement with the phenomenon, a new formation appears to arrive in response to it. When one of them couldn’t afford to pursue the formations all over England one summer, he got a formation close to his home. When another cried out “why can’t this phenomenon be more direct?”, she received an eyewitness experience. There are more many examples like that and the key unifying feature is the presence of deep emotion.
So we see before us something beautiful, often containing an inner sacred geometry, a question artfully-posed. But who is posing it and why? It would seem that their creator cares about us? Does your view of extraterrestrial life include an answer as to whether or not such beings care about us? If we imagine that we live in a world that doesn’t care about us (as our dominant cultural institutions tell us) then we won’t see reality as having any heart. I believe the quest of our era is the struggle for the recovery of the heart.
7 What are you up to next book wise or projects wise and any links you’d like to share?
Today our culture is on the edge of knowing objectively that we live a world in which consciousness is an ever-present field (like gravity). I’m very proud to be hosting and speaking at the SYNCHRONICITY: Matter & Psyche Symposium featuring Rupert Sheldrake, Graham Hancock, Jill Purce, Richard Tarnas, Marilyn Schlitz, Stephen Aizenstat, Dr. Jim B. Tucker and many more in Joshua Tree, CA, September 12-14 www.MatterPsyche.net. It’s a world-class coming together of pioneers whose work has advanced our understanding of the unity of consciousness and reality. It features art, speakers and a host of embodied practices and is a once-in-a-lifetime gathering of talent. Sheldrake studies extended mind phenomenon in plants and animals and Hancock explores alternate archeology and plant medicines. Both men question the assumptions being made by our institutions. SYNCHRONICITY’s genesis was, in part, TED’s removal of Sheldrake and Hancock’s videos last spring and to be a part of this event is to explore of the real cutting edge of the evolution of consciousness in our time.
My new book, Crop Circles, Jung & the Reemergence of the Archetypal Feminine is out now on North Atlantic books, see more at www.JungAndCropCircles.net
UFO mania: Kidnapped by Aliens: The Pilot Who Vanished During Close Encounter
UFO mania: Kidnapped by Aliens: The Pilot Who Vanished During Close Encounter
On the night of October 21, 1978 Frederick Valentich radioed into air traffic control in Melborne with some strange news. An unidentified metallic craft was toying with his Cessna as he flew over the Bass Strait en route to King’s Island. No one ever saw him or his aircraft again.
It all happened during the largest wave of UFO sightings Australia had ever seen. Over fifty reports were uncovered from the area of Valentich’s disappearance on that day alone. Some reported classic cigar-shaped craft while others saw a “starfish-shaped” object with lights that looked like “silver rain.” Electronic interferance was noted in a number of these reports.
Some witnesses even said they saw a “green light” shadowing Valentich’s aircraft on the night in question (take note of that for later).
Valentich left a looming legacy of his final moments with a this bizzare yet compelling radio transmission:
19:06:14 DSJ [Valentich]: Melbourne, this is Delta Sierra Juliet. Is there any known traffic below five thousand?
FS [Flight Services; Robey]: Delta Sierra Juliet, no known traffic.
DSJ: Delta Sierra Juliet, I am, seems to be a large aircraft below five thousand.
19:06:44 FS: Delta Sierra Juliet, What type of aircraft is it?
DSJ: Delta Sierra Juliet, I cannot affirm, it is four bright, and it seems to me like landing lights.
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet.
19:07:31 DSJ: Melbourne, this is Delta Sierra Juliet, the aircraft has just passed over me at least a thousand feet above.
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet, roger, and it is a large aircraft, confirmed?
DSJ: Er-unknown, due to the speed it’s travelling, is there any air force aircraft in the vicinity?
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet, no known aircraft in the vicinity.
19:08:18 DSJ: Melbourne, it’s approaching now from due east towards me.
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet.
19:08:41 DSJ: (open microphone for two seconds.)
19:08:48 DSJ: Delta Sierra Juliet, it seems to me that he’s playing some sort of game, he’s flying over me two, three times at speeds I could not identify.
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet, roger, what is your actual level?
DSJ: My level is four and a half thousand, four five zero zero.
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet and you confirm you cannot identify the aircraft?
DSJ: Affirmative.
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet, roger, stand by.
19:09:27 DSJ: Melbourne, Delta Sierra Juliet, it’s not an aircraft it is (open microphone for two seconds).
19:09:42 FS: Delta Sierra Juliet, can you describe the – er – aircraft?
DSJ: Delta Sierra Juliet, as it’s flying past it’s a long shape (open microphone for three seconds) cannot identify more than it has such speed (open microphone for three seconds). It’s before me right now Melbourne.
19:10 FS: Delta Sierra Juliet, roger and how large would the – er – object be?
19:10:19 DSJ: Delta Sierra Juliet, Melbourne, it seems like it’s chasing me. What I’m doing right now is orbiting and the thing is just orbiting on top of me also. It’s got a green light[emphasis mine] and sort of metallic like, it’s all shiny on the outside.
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet
19:10:46 DSJ: Delta Sierra Juliet (open microphone for three seconds) It’s just vanished.
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet.
19:11:00 DSJ: Melbourne, would you know what kind of aircraft I’ve got? Is it a military aircraft?
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet, Confirm the – er - aircraft just vanished.
DSJ: Say again.
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet, is the aircraft still with you?
DSJ: Delta Sierra Juliet; it’s (open microphone for two seconds) now approaching from the south-west.
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet
19:11:50 DSJ: Delta Sierra Juliet, the engine is rough-idling. I’ve got it set at twenty three twenty-four and the thing is (coughing).
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet, roger, what are your intentions?
DSJ: My intentions are – ah – to go to King Island – ah – Melbourne. That strange aircraft is hovering on top of me again (open microphone for two seconds). It is hovering and (open microphone for one second) it’s not an aircraft.
FS: Delta Sierra Juliet.
19:12:28 DSJ: Delta Sierra Juliet. Melbourne (open microphone for seventeen seconds).
These final seventeen seconds of open transmission revealed only a “metallic, scraping sound” on the Melbourne Service Unit’s tape recording. Despite analysis by a former NASA researcher and the Royal Melbourne Institue of Technology, these sounds remain a mystery.
Roy Manifold’s Photograph
Many theories have come forward regarding Frederick’s fate. Some suggest suicide (although he was by all accounts a content man), others a faked death to collect on life insurance (yeah, like I’ve never heard that one before), and of course others that he was disintegrated or abducted by the UFO.Frederick’s father, Guido Valentino, actually found some consolation in the abduction theory after his son’s out-of-this-world disappearance. According to the AP, “He hoped his son had been taken by a UFO and had not crashed. ‘The fact that they have found no trace of him presents a possibility that UFOs could have been there.’”
The final piece of this puzzle is the photograph taken by Roy Manifold. He had set up a timelapse camera to capture the sunset off the coast, but found something strange when developed. There appeared to be an unexplained object with an “exhaust cloud” in one of his pictures. According to Roy, these were taken just 20 minutes before Valentich’s last transmission. Experts at an Arizona-based UFO organization analyzed the photos and concluded that the object must be moving at 200 mph, or hovering stationary while the clouds zoomed past at that speed (an equally puzzling feat). Below is an enhanced version of the original photograph, provided for your scrutiny.
Could this be the UFO that kidnapped Frederick Valentich?
In a recent interview with ABC Sydney, Shirley MacLaine says she took former Australian Ambassador to the United States Andrew Peacock UFO spotting, and they did indeed spot UFOs.
MacLaine is headed to Australia to perform her live one-woman show, in which she shares stories of the golden era of Hollywood. However, before her trip, she appeared on ABC radio in Sydney for an interview about her upcoming show and other topics. Lucky for us, one of those topics was UFOs.
MacLaine is well-known for her UFO and paranormal interests, and has gone UFO spotting with many prominent people. Perhaps the most famous being the UFO she saw with Dennis Kucinich. When asked about the sighting during a presidential debate, Kucinich didn’t deny it, instead he replied, “You have to keep in mind that more people in this country have seen UFOs than I think approve of George Bush’s presidency.”
It was a witty comeback, but not witty enough to overcome the negative stigma attached to UFOs, and many cite that debate as the end of his already slight to nil chance at the U.S. presidency.
Peacock is no longer in politics and has been retired since 2007, so MacLaine’s revelations will hopefully not affect his life negatively.
As for the sighting itself, MacLaine says she took him to a volcano in Mexico where there are frequent UFO sightings.
The ABC announcer asked, “Is it true though, Shirley, that you took Andrew Peacock, our former foreign minister, that you took him UFO spotting?”
MacLaine replied, “Yes. We went to Mexico to Mount Popocatépetl, because they were having so many UFO sightings, and we don’t know, really, why. But we saw them, and he did too.”
The ABC announcer then asked, “How did Andrew Peacock respond to the sighting of a UFO?”
MacLaine said, “He was very open to everything. I tried to get him to talk about Alice Springs and things like that, but he was very loyal to his foreign service oath of secrecy.”

Alice Springs, presumably, is referring to a satellite tracking station commonly known as Pine Gap, about 11 miles southwest of Alice Springs. It is run by the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) and U.S. National Reconnaissance Office (NRO), and used for global surveillance. Or so they say. Some suspect that it has ties with secret UFO research, or perhaps even alien technology.
MacLaine did not give details as to what she and Peacock spotted on the radio program. In her book, I’m All Over That, published in 2011, she wrote of the sighting, “On a UFO stakeout in Mexico near Mt. Popocatepetl, at one moment we thought we saw a craft and Andrew nearly ‘climbed the sky’ to see if it was real.”
In her book, MacLaine says her relationship with Peacock was her “longest-lasting relationship with a political leader.”
She says, Peacock never told her UFOs had anything to do with extraterrestrials, but he also “said and did nothing to disabuse me of such a belief.”
MacLaine wrote, “When I told him about Roald Sagdaev [former head of the Soviet space program] having confirmed that UFOs and the presence of ETs were real, he just smiled. When I told him I had gone to see Jimmy Carter to discuss UFOs, he just smiled again. Andrew was a trained diplomat of the first order and was his own best intelligence gatherer. He was learning more about the subject of UFOs from me than I was learning from him.”
What does Peacock know? Exactly what did they see at Popocatépetl? We will have to wait until MacLaine’s next exciting UFO interview to find out. I have been hoping that one day one of those interviews will be with me!
IJslandse commissie: legendarisch meermonster bestaat echt
IJslandse commissie: legendarisch meermonster bestaat echt
In 2012 doken er bizarre beelden op uit IJsland van een vreemd wezen dat in een meer zwemt. Het had iets weg van een gigantische slang. De beelden werden gemaakt bij Lagarfljót, een meer in IJsland dat ongeveer 40 kilometer lang is. Het beschikt net als Loch Ness in Schotland over een legendarisch dier, al valt de naam net als de IJslandse vulkanen amper uit te spreken: Lagarfljótsormurinn.
In hun boek ‘Icelandic Folk and Fairy Tales’ onthullen May en Hallberg Hallmundsson de oorsprong van het meermonster: Lang geleden woonde een vrouw op een boerderij in het district Lagarfljót, vlak bij een stroom die uitmondt in het meer. Op een dag gaf ze haar dochter een gouden ring. Ze instrueerde haar dochter een slang te vangen en de gouden ring onder het dier te leggen in een linnenkast. Na een tijd was de slang zo groot dat de kast uit elkaar begon te vallen. Het meisje was zo bang dat ze het dier in het meer gooide.
Twee dappere monsterjagers uit Finland kregen de opdracht het meermonster te doden, maar slaagden daar niet in. Wel wisten ze het wezen aan de bodem van het meer vast te ketenen, zodat het niet langer mensen of dieren kon afslachten. Af en toe komt de rug van het beest nog boven het water uit.
Miisa McKeown, een Finse onderzoekster, analyseerde de videobeelden door onder meer te bepalen of het dier zich daadwerkelijk voortbewoog of een optische illusie was. Ze concludeerde dat het object niet stroomopwaarts bewoog en vermoedelijk vastzat aan een grote tak.
De lokale overheid stelde een commissie samen om te bepalen of de video authentiek is en of er bewijs is geleverd voor het bestaan van het legendarische meermonster. Het onderzoek is afgerond en volgens Iceland Review Online heeft een meerderheid van de commissie bepaald dat Lagarfljótsormurinn echt bestaat.
Hjörtur E. Kjeúlf maakte de video in februari 2012 vanuit het keukenraam van zijn boerderij in Fljótsdalur. De beelden gingen al snel de hele wereld over. Het filmpje is in totaal zo’n 8 miljoen keer bekeken en trok zelfs buitenlandse cameraploegen naar het meer.
Recordhoeveelheid zeeijs Zuidpool stelt wetenschappers voor raadsel
Recordhoeveelheid zeeijs Zuidpool stelt wetenschappers voor raadsel
Er is nog nooit zo veel zeeijs gemeten rondom Antarctica als nu. Uit satellietbeelden blijkt dat er bijna 20 miljoen vierkante kilometer ijs op de zee bij de Zuidpool ligt. Alleen al dit jaar is het record 150 keer verbroken, wat wijst op een opgaande trend.
De hoeveelheid zeeijs strekt zich uit over een gebied dat twee keer zo groot is als Antarctica zelf en ongeveer drie keer zo groot als Australië. Expert dr. Guy Williams van de Universiteit van Tasmanië sprak van een ‘spannende’ puzzel voor klimaatwetenschappers, meldt The Conversation.
Net als op de Noordpool schommelt de hoeveelheid zeeijs gedurende het jaar: in de winter groeit het aan, in de zomer smelt het voor een deel. “Die verschillen moeten ons iets gaan vertellen,” zei dr. Williams.
Satellietfoto van Antarctica met daarop de hoeveelheid zeeijs. De rode lijn geeft het gemiddelde aan (CRC)
Volgens James Whitmore zijn er twee theorieën die de toename van het zeeijs kunnen verklaren. Het kan komen door de windrichting, die het ijs verder de zee op blaast, in plaats van naar het land toe. Daarnaast zou het zeeijs zich gemakkelijker kunnen vormen vanwege het koude en zoete smeltwater van smeltende gletsjers.
“We hebben vanuit de ruimte nog nooit zo’n groot gebied gezien dat wordt bedekt met zeeijs,” zei Jan Lieser van het Antarctic Climate and Ecosystems Cooperative Research Centre tegenover ABC News. “Vijfendertig jaar geleden konden satellieten ons voor het eerst vertellen welk gebied bedekt was met zeeijs. We hebben nog nooit zo’n grote hoeveelheid zeeijs gezien [rond Antarctica].”
Er worden nu onderwaterrobots ingezet om de dikte van het zeeijs op de Zuidpool nauwkeurig te meten. Het ijs op de polen is onderwerp van een verhit debat tussen onderzoekers en zogenoemde klimaatsceptici.
Witness said: In the early morning hours of September 12, 2014, many people in California, Oregon, and Nevada all reported seeing highly unusual lights in the sky. All the eyewitness accounts are the same. A massive, intensely bright light was seen moving across the sky, with a large comet-like tail behind it. This was no meteor. The light was visible for 15-20 seconds. This means it was moving far too slowly to be a meteor. And the fact that it was seen in three separate states indicates that the object must have been very, very high up and very, very large.

VIDEO: Deze zweefmotor lijkt zo weggevlogen uit Star Wars
Velen zullen zich de Speeder Bike nog herinneren waarmee Luke en Leia in de film ‘Star Wars: Return of the Jedi’ door de bossen van Endor raceten.
Het Amerikaanse bedrijf Aerofex heeft een zweefmotor ontwikkeld die je met je knieën bestuurt. De bestuurder van de machine drukt met zijn gewicht tegen één van de stuurstangen, waardoor de zogeheten hoverbike van richting verandert. Volgens de fabrikant is dat een erg intuïtieve manier om het voertuig te besturen.
Tijdens een proefvlucht vloog de zweefmotor vijf meter boven de grond en haalde een snelheid van 80 kilometer per uur. Aerofex is niet geïnteresseerd in de productie van een onbemande versie. De bemande variant zou bijvoorbeeld in de land- of tuinbouw kunnen worden gebruikt.
Het bedrijf meent dat de machine een goede pakezel zou kunnen zijn in afgelegen gebieden. Hij is minder sterk dan een helikopter, maar door de ingesloten propellers – zogeheten ducted fans – wel een stuk veiliger.
Het is niet voor het eerst dat een hoverbike wordt bedacht. Het ontwerp stamt namelijk al uit de jaren zeventig. Enige tijd geleden presenteerde de Australiër Chris Malloy een luchtfiets met twee grote ventilatoren die een snelheid van 250 kilometer per uur en een hoogte van drie kilometer zou moeten halen.

MANY ORBS WITNESSED NEAR LONG BEACH NEW JERSEY SEPTEMBER 7, 2014 …. LONG BEACH NEW JERSEY
I have seen flying saucers since august 18, 1980. This was my 8th UFO experience, but I have never seen orbs, only spaceships. These were orbs, I think, not what I usually experience. I first noticed the object before dinner, but I just blew it off. We had dinner on the beach, overlooking the water. My wife noticed it after dinner, when we went to leave. I immediately saw a large bright light again, much brighter than the first time, approximately 45 earlier. I knew immediately what it was, a UFO. We just purchased a camera a few days before, and we went to the waters edge, and started filming. My wife did. The object, there were 4-5 of them, were extremely bright, varying in size from a pin head to a quarter. I estimate about half a mile to a mile away from shoreline. They moved independently, and went from bright small in size, to immensely bright and huge, maybe the size of a quarter. They moved up and down, remained stationary, and one of them went over land when big, over I would assume sandy hook area, 10-15 miles north of where we were.
There were 6-7 people on the beach watching and filming as well. It was amazing to see. My feelings…very excited, very controlled. I wanted to attract them, and stood in the light than ran across the water and did jumping jacks to attract it. It did not respond. The objects got extremely big and bright maybe 3-4 times. These actions unfortunately were not captured on video of photos. I told my wife to take video, to make sure we had it on video. I spoke to my cousin on the cell phone throughout part of the experience, because he knows of all the things I have experienced, and I was describing the scene to him as it happened. I am very lucky to have experienced what I have throughout my life. We never lost sight of the objects. We left after about an hour or so. We saw amazing detail of 2 orbs around a tremendous bright round light, sometimes two bright circles of light. Unfortunately, I do not know how to submit this to you right now, but will have my wife do so in the next few days to a week. You will be amazed, or maybe not, since this is probably common but it is amazing, and I would like an explanation as to what this is. I believe it is extra terrestrial. My wife thinks it was secret military craft, but she also said she did not know what it was. She does not believe in UFO’S, since she has never seen one, but then, she could not explain what we saw. NOTE: The above image is a rendering. KEN’S NOTE: This area has been very active with sightings over the years. Ft Monmouth is nearby and had a two mile dock that protrudes out into the bay. Military ships can be seen there often. The bay leads to the Varrazano Bridge and eventually Manhattan. Check it-out on Google Earth. This case is under investigation by Bob Spearing of MUFON New Jersey.
Kisolava, Serbia, 1725 – Three days after he died, Peter Plogojowitz returned from the grave and showed up at his son’s door demanding food. His son fed him, but not the next night. This led to the deaths of his son and several villagers, who all suffered a loss of blood before their deaths. At Peter’s grave authorities found him with flush cheeks and blood covering his mouth. He was staked and burned, as were his victims.
From Mansfield Reformatory in OH: when we took this picture to show the unique design, we got an image in the background of what appears to be either a guard or houseboy (some of the good behavior prisoners were used to clean and help out in the administrative offices and the living quarters of the warden). We saw nothing when the image was taken and the area was clear of people while I took it.
This picture was taken at the Devil’s Den in Gettysburg… On 4-3-05. “There were not any reenactors there at that time. I made for certain that during my trip, I did not take any pictures of anyone dressed in Civil War era clothing because I was there on a ghost hunting trip.” (NOTE: the uniform is similar to those worn by West Point Cadets during the period…very odd)

Unknown photo…owner found in horde of family photos. Quite creepy….
This controversial video was a cellphone recording back in 2011. You can clearly see the appearance of a tiny creature while the mother was filming his son playing. According to Silvia, the mother, this little creature came out from the kitchen to the garden to escape, leaving behind a foul smell and a slight interference to the cellphone.
The family has always observed that the child was playing and talking to himself in his room and in the corners of the house to nap time, but had never worried because they thought that this was normal with his age. In January 2011, Benjamin was playing as always in the hallway when Silvia noticed a bit of nervousness in and decided to take out her cell phone to record his behavior when he watches “something” running in the background. He thought it was just a field mouse (very common in the area) … but then she saw the actual creature after slowing the video down. She panicked and called her husband, who was at work at that time. Several years had passed and they kept this secret until today, they decided to show this evidence for the world to see on the Internet for dissemination, while still respecting anonymity of the child and their entire family.
Things did not end there … Benjamin (now already 5 years old) is still “playing” with these entities over the years. The family had to endure the presence of these “Elves” while they may not seem aggressive, the smell they leave is unbearable and sometimes by night gives them chills.
This year, I started college, and in doing so, I got a roommate. My roommate is a great guy, and we’ve been friends since kindergarten.
However, like any human being on the face of the earth, living with him isn’t always easy. We’re four weeks in and some of his habits get on my nerves.
Nothing major, really, occasionally he’ll play music too loud or leave clothes lying around, but nothing I can’t deal with.
Except for this one habit he has: most nights, when I’m just about to drift off to sleep, (eyes closed, barely conscious. You get the picture) he’ll just ask, “Hey, man, you awake?” … “Dude?” … “Hey, you up?”
I never respond. Because i never see a need to. If it’s important, he’d wake me. If not, i can just remain comfortable.
After 4 weeks at college, I decided to head home over the weekend for a visit. I had a good time until last night. I was just about to drift off to sleep when my roommate asked, “Hey, are you still awake?” I looked at the clock and saw 2:21. Needless to say, I was a bit pissed off. I decided to actually voice my complaints, so I instinctively turned on the light to tell him in no uncertain terms to shut the hell up.
I sat up and immediately realized what was wrong: why on earth would my roommate be in my room? He’s in our dorm room… Two hours away.
I went pale at the sight of my empty room, and I heard the voice again, this time closer: “I’ll see you in the morning” – Reddit.com
A relative of the Loch Ness Monster has allegedly been caught on camera in England’s Lake District.
Photographer Ellie Williams had been taking photographs of the wildlife around Lake Windermere when upon reviewing the images she discovered that one of them seemed to show a strange humpback creature swimming in the water.
The cryptozoological enigma appeared to possess a long dinosaur-like neck reminiscent of that commonly seen in photographs of the Loch Ness Monster up in Scotland.
“When I set up at Lake Windermere it was business as usual to take some lovely photos of the wildlife around the lake,” she said. “When I reviewed all the images I thought it might have been a swan or a goose, as I was looking at the image on my smartphone.”
“I’m open to suggestions as to what the creature is.”

A UFO appeared in the skies above northern California in the early morning of Friday, September 12.
At least thirty witnesses in the bay area watched the strange object streak across the sky at approximately 6:00 a.m. Some describe the object as a white light, while others say it was orange. But the light was seen with “fog or smoke billowing out” behind it. Among the witnesses is a police officer from Sacramento.

KPIX, San Francisco’s CBS affiliate, spoke with Bing Quock of the Morrison Planetarium at the California Academy of Sciences to ask him about the UFO. “Looking at the website of the American Meteor Society, it looks like there are several reports of a large bright object falling through the sky,” he explains. “It’s rather unusual in that this one had a rather large tail following behind it,” Quock points out.
The station also checked with Gerald McKeegan of the Chabot Space and Science Center in Oakland. “We’re thinking maybe it was either a piece of space junk that has fallen out of orbit and into our atmosphere or it might have been some kind of a missile test launch,” he suggests. But when KPIX checked with Vandenberg Air Force Base, base representatives informed the station that there were no launches that morning.
One witness explained,
This morning when I was leaving for work, before I got into my car I noticed that there was some type of object in the air with a type of floodlight on, and white fog/smoke was billowing out of it – as if something was being sprayed into the air. I tried to take a photo with my iPhone but it didn’t come out . . . Could this be fogging for mosquitoes? I was a bit concerned because the object was clearly spraying some substance into the air . . . with the floodlight on. Then the light went off, and I couldn’t see or hear the sounds from a plane or anything, it was very strange.
But local daily news website Claycord.com explains that mosquito fogging in that area is done by truck, not by aircraft. Further, no mosquito fogging was planned for the day in question. Additionally, the fact that the UFO was seen by witnesses in other states including Nevada and Oregon rules out this possible explanation.

Despite our best efforts, it can be difficult to obtain follow-up material for every single case, especially those that occurred decades ago. A casual reading of the October 1983 issue of UFOPRESS, however, kicked up an article by our friend Alejandro Agostinelli about the Pretzel CE-3 case. The article’s original title: “La incredible y triste historia de la cándida Elodia y de su padre el desalmado” (The Incredible and Sad Story of Fair Elodia and Her Heartless Father ) is a nod to novelist Gabriel García Márquez’s “Eréndira” – To read the original case, please see “Argentina: The 1968 Night Visitor” at http://inexplicata.blogspot.com/2010/06/venturing-into-dark-vaults-of-south.html — SC]
By Alejandro Agostinelli (UFO-PRESS, October 1983)
The reason that prompted the UFO-PRESS newsroom to include – in Issue #15 – a report by a psychologist who looked into the study performed by Dr. Oscar A. Galíndez concerning the experience of María Elodia Pretzel in Villa Carlos Paz on 14 June 1968 was the start of an argument between those who claim having found a definitive explanation, and continuing the discussion using new elements as a basis and shedding light on dark spots. A valid allegation in the light of the sterile discourse would be to invite the psychologist – the one who “debunked” the case, to some – and have him re-interview María Elodia and dispel any questions raised by the article. Yes, faithful to the path laid out by Freudian orthodoxy, Lic. Cetrángolo’s steps in the matter were true. María Elodia exclaimed tearfully: “A man!” and it is worth acknowledging that the psychologist’s hypothesis is at least cogent. Until the contrary can be proved, we must entertain the possibility that her exclamation could have been the response to the need for “a man” that may be necessary in the life of a woman in the bloom of adolescence.
But in the meantime, let us see what happened not so long ago with regard to the article in UFO-PRESS and fortunate mobilizing effect it had among certain levels of homegrown ufology.
The fact that anyone should dare question María Elodia Pretzel’s irreversible eyewitness account seemed to unleash the wrath of the editor of a well-known monthly magazine on borderline subjects. Without missing a beat, he sent a correspondent for his magazine to Villa Carlos Paz to see if it was possible to “refute the article appearing in UFO-Press”. The envoy, bewildered by his boss’s deceitful intentions, thought it wouldn’t be a bad idea to interview the witness of a such a classic case in world ufology, which at the time sent a ripple of fear through the Argentinean public.
Upon reaching the “La Cuesta” motel, he was told by the desk clerk how to reach María Elodia’s property. He found the home, disheartened to see that all the blinds were closed. He rang the doorbell and after a while, from the dark interior that could barely been seen through the windows, he heard the distrustful voice of a woman asking who was at the door. The envoy identified himself and, still hesitant, she asked him into the living room. Looking older than her thirty-four years of age, María Elodia apologized for her initial mistrust and told the man that she had to obey her husband’s instructions regarding her safety. Incoherent, contradictory and visibly upset, Ms. Pretzel explained that she had been in poor health ever since that June 14th fifteen years earlier.
The cause for her imbalance lies not so much in the encounter itself but in the disproportionate coverage given to her incredible story, and particularly the mocking treatment she receives from her neighbors. The cosmic affair pursues her wherever she goes much like a scarlet letter on her arm. She reaffirmed the truthfulness of the experience and rejected the untruths put forth by the worst of the townspeople, who have tainted her good name.
The resourceful magazine correspondent later spoke to some local residents and was able to learn the local gossip.
According to the chattering classes, María Elodia had a secret boyfriend who visited her when her father, Pedro Jacobo Pretzel, was away from the motel. On the unhappy evening of June 14th, she received one of these clandestine visits, and her father arrived as her furtive lover fled through a side door. Believing that she would bear the brunt of her father’s jealousy, poor María broke into tears. Seeing how perplexed her father was at the dramatic scene, she dried her tears and made up the story of the galactic superman. We are not alone in distrusting the version of the events put forth by the locals, nor did the chronicler take their arguments seriously. He preferred to stress the sad impression he got from Ms. Pretzel: a woman on the brink of insanity.
The material gathered by the reporter, as one can easily suppose, did not meet the expectations of the unnamed merchant of mystery or defray the cost of sending his correspondent to that location. Therefore, it does not surprise me that none of what has been hitherto stated has appeared in the magazine in question. The brave should never avoid the truth. As Joan Manuel Serrat sang: “The truth is never sad…it just can’t be helped.”
The new information introduced by this article, however, will require a more complete confirmation if we seek to tilt the balance of credibility in one way or another.
(N.Morgan) In an amazing capture a UFO can be see flying by Comet 67P Churyumov Gerasimenko! The UFO sightings we’ve been seeing lately seem to be getting more bold in allowing their presence to be known. Are these our own military’s air crafts or something more mysterious?
Comet Churyumov–Gerasimenko, officially designated 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko and sometimes shortened to 67P/C-G, is a comet with a current orbital period of 6.45 years and a rotation period of approximately 12.7 hours. The comet will next come to perihelion (closest approach to the Sun) on 13 August 2015.Like all comets, it is named after its discoverers, Klim Ivanovych Churyumov and Svetlana Ivanovna Gerasimenko, who first observed it on photographic plates in 1969.
Churyumov-Gerasimenko is the destination of the European Space Agency’s Rosetta mission, launched on 2 March 2004. The Rosetta spacecraft rendezvoused with the comet on 6 August 2014, with plans to enter orbit after approaching to within 30 km (19 mi) five weeks later. Rosetta will study the comet and identify a suitable landing site for its lander, Philae; the landing is scheduled for November 2014.

Fortunately, Hollywood maverick Douglas Trumbull has always manned up to his interest in The Great Taboo. And as the special effects wizard behind classics such as “2001,” “Close Encounters” and “Blade Runner” told a German audience in 2012, he’s in good company:
“If you poll people in the world, most people will say they believe in life in the universe. But there’s a big stigma attached to UFOs. And aliens. In the sense that it’s been so demonized in movies and so trivialized in science fiction movies that nobody who has an academic credential will touch that subject. It's an interesting thing.
“So astronomers, physicists, astrophysicists, people in the space program, people in NASA, they all believe in life in the universe," he continued, "but nobody wants to talk about UFOs. Because they’ll lose their job. They’ll lose tenure, they’ll be ridiculed, they’ll become the laughing stock, and so no one wants to talk about it. I think it’s actually a really huge and interesting story. And I’m not afraid of it because I don’t have tenure and I’m not a scientist. So I don’t have anything to lose. So I think it’s very fun territory, very fertile ground.”
De Void brings this up to draw attention, once more, to the massive gaping hole in next Thursday’s two-day symposium, “Preparing for Discovery: A Rational Approach to the Impact of Finding Microbial, Complex, or Intelligent Life Beyond Earth,” in Washingon, D.C. The thing is co-sponsored by NASA and Library of Congress, and true to form, UFOs are most definitely off the table. No surprise, we expect that from the radioastronomy/SETI culture dominating the lineup. But here’s another little contradiction.
Untenured and unencumbered by the protocols of academia, sfx maestro Douglas Trumbull's fearless pursuits of The Great Taboo are creating new technologies/CREDIT: www.cinefilos.it
Paul Allen, the Microsoft billionaire who has dumped some $30 million into SETI’s empty-handed search for extraterrestrial intelligence, is clearly a huge Douglas Trumbull fan. Four years ago, the man who created Spielberg’s mothership at Devil’s Tower was inducted into Allen’s Science Fiction Museum Hall of Fame. And in April, Allen’s Seattle Cinerama Theatre hosted the premiere of Trumbull’s revolutionary 10-minute 3D film, “UFOTOG,” described as “a dramatic short story about a lone man attempting to photograph UFOs.” The showstopper was "UFOTOG's" state-of-the-art technology, filmed at 120 frames per second, or four times the industry standard. Trumbull calls it “a new cinematic language."
Equally significant, “UFOTOG” is also autobiographical. Trumbull went national with his determination to document The Great Taboo during History Channel’s “UFOs On the Record” in 2011. Turning a tricked-out Hummer into a mobile camera and instrumentation platform designed to acquire UFO signatures in various modes, Trumbull's efforts to develop and synchronize corroborative technologies have proven hugely expensive. So the plan now -- after teaming up with modeling whiz and chief MUFON imaging analyst Marc D'Antonio -- is to make the system more portable, more affordable, and to increase sky coverage.
Fully loaded, these downsized "platters" are being engineered to detect not merely speed, direction, and altitude, but transponder indentification, imagery in night-vision, infrared, ultraviolet, etc., along with electromagnetic and even gravitational perturbations. Ideally, Trumbull's evolving multispectral cameras would be triangulated -- the farther apart, the better -- with instant communications features to alert each other to the approach of a bogey. D'Antonio calls them Land Deployment Units and Sea Deployment Units, because the strategy involves scanning the oceans for activity too.
As D'Antonio told Open Minds UFO Radio host Alejandro Rojas last month, the UFOTOG campaign hopes to mass-produce LDUs and SDUs because "this whole project is about finding the smoking gun." They've even worked out a theoretical framework for identifying what that smoking gun might look like; part of it involves string theory and gamma radiation. And again, all this stuff costs $$$.

‘It was a craft that did not come from this planet’: CIA agent speaks out on 65th anniversary of Roswell ‘UFO’ landings
‘It was a craft that did not come from this planet’: CIA agent speaks out on 65th anniversary of Roswell ‘UFO’ landings
‘Box’ of information includes photographs that prove Roswell UFO was real
Report by veteran CIA agent who
Information concealed in ‘Vault’ beneath CIA’s Langley headquarters
A long-serving CIA agent has spoken out on the 65th anniversary of the Roswell Incident to reveal a hidden CIA file on the ‘UFO’ that was supposedly found at the site – and says, ‘It really happened.’
Conspiracy theorists believe that alien bodies from the crashed ‘disc’ were autopsied – and that modern technologies have been built on discoveries from inside the craft.
Chase Brandon, an agent who served 35 years with the agency, said that the information is concealed in a hidden vault within the agency’s Langley headquarters.
‘It was in a vaulted area – there was one box that really caught my eye. It had one word on it: Roswell. I rummaged inside it, put the box on the shelf and said, “My God, it really happened.”
‘It was not a weather balloon – it was what people first reported,’ says Chase Brandon, a CIA agent who served 35 years with the agency. ‘It was a craft that did not come from this planet.’
Brandon spoke out on the 65th anniversary of the Roswell incident – and claims to have seen direct evidence of the ‘alien’ visitation in a high-security area of the CIA’s Langley headquarters.
For twenty-five years Brandon served in the Agency’s elite Clandestine Service as an undercover, covert operations officer carrying out foreign assignments involving international terrorism, counterinsurgency, global narcotics trafficking and weapons smuggling.
When the Roswell incident occurred, military authorities issued a press release, which began: ‘The many rumours regarding the flying disc became a reality yesterday when the intelligence officer of the 509th Bomb Group of the Eighth Air Force, Roswell Army Air Field, was fortunate enough to gain possession of a disc.’
Yet, just 24 hours later, the military changed their story and claimed the object they’d first thought was a ‘flying disc’ was a weather balloon that had crashed on a nearby ranch.
Amazingly, the media and the public accepted the explanation without question.
Now agents such as Brandon are once again calling into question the ‘official’ line on the incident.
Brandon, a covert operations officer who served with the Agency for 35 years, worked in counterinsurgency and weapons smuggling, but also liased with the entertainment industries.
He is the author of several books. He says he will not reveal exactly what lay within the box that ‘erased’ his doubts about the Roswell incident.
‘Some written material and some photographs, and that’s all I will ever say to anybody about the contents of that box,’ he told the Huffington Post.
‘But it absolutely, for me, was the single validating moment that everything I had believed, and knew that so many other people believed had happened, truly was what occurred.’
Earlier publicly released documents appear to back up Brandon’s story – or at least the idea that American authorities covered up involvement with aliens.
One memo that appears to prove that New Mexico prior to 1950 has been published by the FBI.
The bureau has made thousands of files available in a new online resource called The Vault.
Among them is a memo to the director from Guy Hottel, the special agent in charge of the Washington field office in 1950.
In the memo, whose subject line is ‘Flying Saucers’, Agent Hottel reveals that an Air Force investigator had stated that ‘three so-called flying saucers had been recovered in New Mexico’.
The investigator gave the information to a special agent, he said. The FBI has censored both the agent and the investigator’s identity.
Agent Hottel went on to write: ‘They were described as being circular in shape with raised centers, approximately 50 feet in diameter.
‘Each one was occupied by three bodies of human shape but only 3 feet tall,’ he stated.
The bodies were ‘dressed in a metallic cloth of a very fine texture. Each body was bandaged in a manner similar to the blackout suits used by speed flyers and test pilots.’

Amazing UFO activity over Normandy, France on 12th September 2014
Amazing UFO activity over Normandy, France on 12th September 2014
New amazing video footage of a fleet of UFOs recorded in the daytime sky above Normandy, France on 12th September 2014.
Witness said: I was on a yacht with a friend. We were sailing together, enjoying the beautiful blue sky in Normandy. I was watching a huge Chemtrail and some nice clouds while taking a sunbath, when my attention got turned away by something else (I don’t remember). I stopped watching the sky for some minutes. When I stared at the sky again, I slowly noticed some strange little dots of light near the huge Chemtrail. As always, I got my iPhone in my pocket So I immediately took it and recorded what I could. After checking on my PC screen, I counted seven white objects slowly descending inside the trail, and also disappearing behind it.

The Kardashev Scale
The Kardashev Scale
Gepubliceerd op 17 feb. 2014
The Kardashev scale is a method of measuring a civilization's level of technological advancement, based on the amount of energy a civilization is able to utilize. The scale has three designated categories called Type I, II, and III. A Type I civilization uses all available resources impinging on its home planet, Type II harnesses all the energy of its star, and Type III of its galaxy. The scale is only hypothetical, but it puts energy consumption in a cosmic perspective. It was first proposed in 1964 by the Soviet astronomer Nikolai Kardashev. Various extensions of the scale have been proposed since, from a wider range of power levels (types 0, IV and V) to the use of metrics other than pure power.

UFO HUNTER SHOW CASE # 97202 ARIZONA LIGHTS
Gepubliceerd op 28 okt. 2012
Ancient Aliens is an American television series that premiered on April 20, 2010 on the History channel and it was Jeff Woolwine and Pat Uskert who got the show going. Before the show Pat was working on what he had in mind as far as the show would go. It was Jeff Woolwine who took cameras to the mountains to film and learn about the rock art showing what was seen in the sky over 1000 years ago.. Jeff Woolwine was the first person to mach his ufo sightings to the rock art in the U.S. Jeff took Pat up on the mountains of Phoenix Arizona for the makeing of Ancient Aliens in 2005. We dident know it was going to be called at that time so we called it " Ufo Road Trip " After what the producers saw in my work they new there was a bigger story on the phoenix lights and now the rock art that match that sighting. Now insted of useing the person who thought of this petroglyph ufo connection they like useing a so called expert Giorgio A. Tsoukalos. He has never ben out to the mountains to see the ufos, nore dose he have the experience with ufos as Jeff Woolwine has .... NEW FILM ON THE HISTORY OF THE PHOENIX LIGHTS "
Sadly I feel as an animal lover and pet owner to once again do the right thing and report that I have had two more half cat reports during the last few weeks and feel it more important to start off my new fall season with this news in hopes it may somehow prevent this from continuing. I will bring my other articles on board soon. First let me deal with this disturbing issue.
One report was told to me by a friend who lives on the end of Long Island New York who explained to me that her neighbor found her cat bloodless, gutless with only the top half looking like a hand puppet thrown on her large open back porch.
Her house is waterfront making the Atlantic Ocean about 400 feet from her back porch. The woman was very upset and confused as why anyone would do such a cruel thing to her sweet pet. She also was fully aware the grusume attack on the cat took place somewhere else as they could not find any signs of this horrible event taking place anywhere on their property. The woman was frightened as the most upsetting part of this crime was that someone took the time to approach and return the half dead cats body after slaughtering it neatly at the back of her home obviously to be discovered by the owners of the poor little cat.
I realize I have written about this many times before and will be sure to provide some of that material on my blog with this article. Half cat bodies found clean and neat sliced in half across the center of the cats body leaving the head and front paws or bottom part and back paws has been going on now well over 20 years all over the world. They are not a result of an attack by another animal and left clean without signs of blood or internal organs cut without chewing or claw marks.
It is a strange unexplained mutalilation of the cats that goes on without explanation or reason.
A few weeks ago another woman from California sent me a note that she too along with her friend who owned the cat found the beloved pet in the same condition. Her report reads as follows:
I asked the woman if the animal control gave any reasons why they gave their reasoning for this awful slaughter of the womans cat and the woman sent me back the following response:
"None of us can figure out why animal control made the decision they did. The neighbor put the 2 parts together and they fit perfectly. No bite marks, no tares in the skin. There was no blood around or any other pieces. We're all questing that decision.”
I find this on going slaughter of innocent pets extremely disturbing and really have no answers to why this continues to go on.
I do think we need to give our time and try to somehow make an effort to figure out why this horrible crime continues to go on all over the world.
I will be including other information and a new article by Richard Bonenfant on my blog along with this article about animal mutilation. I do have images of the half cats that I will also post on my blog however feel they are too upsetting to publish out with this article before warning they exist.
I do hope you all had a wonderful summer and will now be spending my time forming new articles concerning the interesting experiences of my summer as I continue to walk along my endless journey with the unknown.
(N.Morgan) The phenomenon known as crop circles has been a point of intrigue for many researchers and those who look to the stars for other forms of life. Their beauty and symmetry are unmatched by anything we’ve seen before and they keep getting more elaborate and stunning with each incident. In the video below, The Third Milenium reports from Wiltshire Museum about the exhibition about crop circle phenomenon. In Wiltshire Museum presented an exhibition around Crop Circles one of the first instances of this phenomenon has come to museums.
A crop circle is a sizable pattern created by the flattening of a crop such as wheat, barley, rye, maize, or rapeseed. Crop circles are also referred to as crop formations because they are not always circular in shape. The documented cases have substantially increased from the 1970s to current times, and many self-styled experts alleged an alien origin. However, in 1991, two hoaxers, Bower and Chorley, claimed authorship of many circles throughout England, after one of their circles was certified as impossible to be made by a man by a notable circle investigator in front of journalists.
Circles in the United Kingdom are not spread randomly across the landscape, but they appear near roads, areas of medium to dense population, and cultural heritage monuments, such as Stonehenge or Avebury, and always in areas of easy access. Archeological remains can cause cropmarks in the fields in the shapes of circles and squares, but they do not appear overnight, and they are always in the same places every year.
The scientific consensus is that most or all crop circles are man-made, with a few possible exceptions due to meteorological or other natural phenomena.
A strange object flying close to the sun looks unnervingly like a huge, metallic ‘mothership’ familiar from Hollywood blockbusters.
The picture was released by Nasa’s sun-watching Solar and Heliospheric Observatory, known as SOHO – and has become an immediate cult hit on the internet.
UFO fan site Gather News said: ‘An unusually shaped, gigantic UFO was spotted on the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) and posted in a video on YouTube.
UFO fan site News Gather said: ‘An unusually shaped, gigantic UFO was spotted on the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) and posted in a video on YouTube
‘The unidentified flying object, which bears no resemblance to anything ever spotted near the Sun, somehow manages to withstand the blazing heat thrown off by solar flare activity and the incredibly high temperatures emanating from nuclear fusion generated on the surface of the star. What is it?’ asked the site.
UFO fans on YouTube have been highly enthusiastic about the object, with many claiming it as a definite ‘spot’.
SOHO, the Solar & Heliospheric Observatory, is a satellite built to study the Sun from its deep core to the outer corona and the solar wind.
An enlargement of the object makes the enormously large UFO look like a ship straight out of a Hollywood movie
SOHO was launched on December 2, 1995.
The twelve instruments on board SOHO communicate with large radio dishes around the world which form NASA’s Deep Space Network are used for data downlink and commanding.
‘The video shows what looks like a metallic, jointed spaceship with a gigantic extension, perhaps a boom arm, anchored off its lower end.
‘An enlargement of the object makes the enormously large UFO look like a ship straight out of a Hollywood movie.’
Alien spacecraft? Observers pointed out that the ‘jointed’ arms of the object near the sun are very similar to fictional interstellar craft

I took a screenshot and added light to it and you can see another part of the ship. It has another third arm that goes down. So strange. Keep up the great work,’ says one UFO fan.
Others are more sceptical, claiming such artefacts are often the product of distortion hitting SOHO’s sensors.
‘There is no way this object is merely vapour, as the shape of it is rigidly straight and grooved and appears to be manufactured in some way,’ says the UFO fan site. ‘Also, there seems to be some intelligent design involved. It’s beyond human engineering to create.’
“One of biggest mysteries of modern archaeology might be solved in the coming days—and all eyes are on a huge circular structure that lies beneath an ancient Greek mound. Beyond them lies one of the greatest mysteries of modern archaeology, one that might be solved in the next few days—or might trouble the sleep of scholars for decades, as the last great find in the territory of the ancient Macedonians, the nation once ruled by Alexander the Great, has done. “
Alexander the Great was a King (Basileus) of the Ancient Greek Kingdom of Macedon, member of the Argead dynasty. Born in Pella in 356 BC, Alexander succeeded his father, Philip II, to the throne at the age of twenty. He spent most of his ruling years on an unprecedented military campaign through Asia and northeast Africa, until by the age of thirty he had created one of the largest empires of the ancient world, stretching from Greece to Egypt and into present-day Pakistan. He was undefeated in battle and is considered one of history’s most successful military commanders.

UFO historians and researchers have always pointed out time periods or years in which encounters seem to increase in overwhelming numbers, they have labeled these time periods as ‘Waves’. The summer of 1947 is considered the first modern UFO wave in history (mostly in the United States). Other notable waves were in 1952 (basically the whole year and again concentrated in the USA). There were minor waves after that with concentrations worldwide, then came the summer of 1965 in which a worldwide wave was recorded, starting in South America, this incredible wave continued throughout 1966 and well into 1967, the next notable wave, acknowledge by those UFO historians and researchers is of course the fall 1973 (starting in the USA, mainly the southern states). One year which has been mostly ignored as a wave year or a period of intense activity was of course 1968, which included Argentina, Spain, France, Australia, New Zealand, and of course my main focus of attention in this article Canada (specifically the Province of Quebec). Encounters with strange entities were numerous and steady and mostly ignored by non-Canadian researchers. Following is a summary of known entity or humanoid encounters in Canada for the year 1968.
Not to be outdone in August, Quebec again becomes the focus of the next encounter, we go to Montreal:
22. Location: Montreal Quebec Canada Date: August 4 1968
Time: 05:00 a.m. Three young men, aged in their early 20’s had spent the night visiting the fair at La Ronde amusement park and were now returning back home. The three, Guy Gagne, Jean-Guy Girouard, & Carol Marquis were near Perras Boulevard when at about 150 feet from them they spotted a strange creature that seemed to be walking around with extreme difficulty, it seemed to use its hands to balance itself on the ground, similarly to a monkey. However the being was about 3ft tall with a head much larger than a normal primate. As the strange figure reached a street lamp it performed an abnormally high jump and immediately vanished from view of the witnesses, it then appeared briefly on the other side of the road, apparently it had managed to make a leapt of about 30 ft, it then disappeared for good. The stunned witnesses immediately called the police who assured them that there was no circus in the region and that nobody had reported an escaped “monkey”. A few days before this encounter several witnesses at nearby Boscoville had seen a luminous UFO flying overhead.

Quebec also features in the next brief report:
23. Location: Near St. Gertrude Quebec Canada Date: August 6 1968
Time: 2130 Four adolescent boys were outside, when they heard the dog barking furiously and saw it tugging on the rope. They heard a creaking sound, and saw a 4ft tall luminous entity leave the hedge where the dog was barking. It had large shoulders and long arms which hung down. It instantly disappeared in front of them.

Still in Quebec our next case was heavily investigated and has several witnesses, considered a classic in Quebecois Ufology:
24. Location: Coleraine Quebec Canada Date: August 29 1968
Time: 1830 A group of children on four consecutive days saw a strange being hanging onto a boulder overlooking a cemetery. He was a dwarfish humanoid about 4 ft tall, with a shaven head, naked chest and a heavy black beard, and with a red and bumpy skin, “like that of a lizard.” This being would disappear into thin air unexpectedly. Also a roaring noise was heard in an excavation at the foot of the boulder, and a kind of “flying saucer” was seen, about 30 ft wide and colored blue, white and red; it left a long trail of smoke, and each time it “looked as if it were trying to land behind the boulder.” The children were Denis Bogus, 7, who saw the object; his brothers Michael and Andre, and their uncle, George Bogus; other adults who subsequently observed the phenomena were Normand Daigle and Luc Cadorette.
Humcat 1968-62 Source:Saucers Space & Science, fall 1968
Our next case does not really involved the presence of humanoid or entities but it present a very high-strange scenario, a bizarre brief journey into another realm:
25. Location: Burnt Creek, near Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada Date: August 31 1968
Time: afternoon The witness was a successful practical minerals prospector working for a Canadian company operating out of Vancouver. He and his partner had flown in from Yellowknife, where after a battle with the elements, they got to their camp at Willow Lake (just a cabin in the wilderness). The two of them moved south a bit and set up a secondary camp which was merely a tent—here is where they would strike out each day in search of mineral signs. They sometimes worked together as a team, but most often they ranged alone. During the two and a half months they were there, the only unusual thing that occurred was the discovery of a strange type of “rock” shaped like a double blade of a fan or windmill that they (and later geologists) were not able to classify. On their last day in the field, a bizarre incident occurred. On that day they were as usual on their own, the witness exploring around Burnt Creek and north in the hills, but returning to camp empty handed his friend was not there yet, so he just sat and meditated on the hills. Bored he got up and walked to the edge of a small (still 50 foot drop-off) cliff, and looked down into the gouge below. This gouge was peculiar, about 50 foot long and only 4 feet wide and flat. In it were some “bubbly looking rocks” and a “tubular fog bank”. The apparent minerals were odd, but the unmoving fog bank more so. He felt nervous just looking at it, but decided to go down into the gouge and explore. There he found more of the unusual unidentified mineral and it seemed to be associated with a small mining activity, (even though there was supposed to be no such thing in this area). Puzzled by the rocks, but still in the presence of the unmoving mist, he finally decided to walk into the fog bank. Approximately two steps into the mist he saw a grassy field for as far as his vision was capable of seeing at that time. The grass was about one foot tall at that point. The more he advanced towards the grass, the higher the grass became, there was a wind blowing from the grass away from him. On entering the mist his vision was limited to his left and right. He advanced until the grass, brown colored, was approximately three feet tall. Then he decided to retreat, which he did. He does not remember what the sky looked like, gray colored seemed correct. He decided to walk back into the mist and cautioned himself not to walk into the grass. He went as far as the first time and things were the same. As he advanced, the grass got taller (but he seemed to be now walking beside it, not in it) approximately 4 foot now, and his vision left and right got wider. Far off to his right there was an oasis with medium sized trees in a circle with two tall palm trees growing in the center of the circle. At that point he had enough. At that time his mind went completely blank except for one little piece of his brain powers intact and he got out of there in record time. He told neither his buddy or anyone else what had happened to him, but he never could shake the thought that he had passed into another dimensional reality for those few minutes. He wondered about the strange stones which should not have been there and the small mining operation which likewise should not have been.

We return to Ontario for our next peculiar but brief case, again we are in Toronto:
26. Location: Toronto, Ontario, Canada Date: September 7 1968
Time: unknown A woman reported meeting a being wearing an “astronaut suit” which gave her a stone of a very strong and unique composition. After tests perform on the stone it was revealed that it had strong nickel content. It is hinted that the extraterrestrial also had sex with the witness. No other information.

For our next case we return again to Quebec where the wonders of 1968 apparently never ceased:
27. Location: Drummondville Quebec Canada Date: September 14 1968
Time: evening A group of three young girls saw a small man dressed in black with a kind of ‘overcoat’, hat and a ‘plain’ front that approached them moving like a robot. The stranger suddenly stopped and looked up staring at the children with a ‘terrified’ face. He then hastily disappeared the moment the children turned away for only seconds. The next day, Sunday on September 15 at 20:15 the same witnesses and a fourth girl saw a ‘boy’ about four feet in height which was encased in a circle of red light. The little figure stepped out of the circle of red light and appeared to be wearing dark blue clothing, he then hid behind a large tree trunk and the children lost sight of it. A neighborhood dog would not stop barking during the incident. The strange figure was seen one last time walking behind the tree trunk in the strange robot-like manner. The next day traces were found on the sand that did not resemble those of a dog. The name of four of the witnesses were disclosed as, Joelle Henaire, aged 13, Suzie Fontaine, aged 10 and Helene Laforce and Celine Bedard about the same age.

We continue on in, you guessed it! Quebec!
28. Location: Coaticook Quebec Canada Date: September 21 1968
Time: 2130 Two young girls said they saw a “Martian” on the roof of the Coaticook High School. By 2000, a crowd of nearly 50 persons had assembled. Shirley Green said that at 2130 she saw “green face with no nose, mouth or hair,” and that the man emitted intermittent sparks. In a field owned by a Mr. Boivin, grass was burned in a circle 42 ft in diameter; some tracks were found.

This next case is again from Quebec and is accompanied by a fine illustration courtesy of Donald Cyr:
29. Location: Asbestos, Quebec, Canada Date: September 28 1968
Time: 2145 A family was watching television when the wife called her husband to see a green rectangle, in the sky, which became brighter and greener. From it emerged a yellow orange disc with three circular lights beneath it. The husband and his brother in law then drove after the object which entered a cloud, turning it green. Soon afterwards a brilliant ball of light emerged from the cloud. The men stopped at a house and some boys also saw the object. The men walked towards it but became afraid when it flooded them with light. Meanwhile back at the house, the wife and sister in law saw two humanoids walk from the object, seemingly in space. The object then slowed, and moved towards Windsor emitting a green light from its rear.

The next case is from the same location and very similar perhaps the same one? It has some different details though:
30. Location: Asbestos Quebec Canada Date: before October 9 1968
Time: unknown A man, his wife, his brother in law, and his sister in law saw in the sky a rectangular green shape. After some minutes “a real saucer” came out of the cloud, with a yellow-orange light around it # 3 circular lights beneath it. The men got into a car & followed the UFO toward St. Claude; watching from the home, the women distinctly saw humanoids walk from the object seemingly into space.

We finish the year of high-strangeness in Canada, again in the far north, where the humanoids were seen by the crew members of an aircraft!
31. Location: 150 miles w of Yellowknife Northwest Territories Canada Date: November 1968
Time: 02:30 a.m. The flight engineer of a chartered cargo aircraft flying at 170 mph from Copper Mine to Yellowknife noticed in the clear night sky a stationary object emitting pale blue light. This object approached to within 1000 ft of the airplane, & flew along with it for 5 minutes, after which it departed suddenly at great speed. It was disc shaped & had a row of large rectangular windows; in the middle window was visible a dark form which the witness thought to be an occupant of the UFO. The pilot and the copilot also saw this, and reported it by radio to the air traffic control center in Yellowknife.

There were have it, 31 stories, reports, anecdotes, whatever you want to call them, of strange and unusual occurrences, all from Canada in 1968. Many of the reports were investigated by local well-balanced and intelligent men such as Marc LeDuc, Donald Cyr, Henri Bordeleau, Jean Ferguson, etc. You be the judge. I contend that the above cases were part of the much larger and mostly ignored UFO/humanoid wave of 1968.
I got some of the info in this post off of the Live Science Website (an amazing site by the waywww.livescience.com) seems the sun is lashing out throwing solar flares at the Earth. The forecast for potentially supercharged auroras comes after powerful solar storms fired off eruptions of solar material. During Wednesday’s solar flare, the sun unleashed a major X1.6-class flare directly at Earth. Not often can you see this beautiful aurora from the United States but last night (friday sept 12) would have been your best chance to get a glimpse of this most amazing beauty. Those in the Northern United States may have seen their first and possibly once in a lifetime peek of the Aurora. Most often times you need to be much farther north making people like myself having only seen pictures, which I’m sure is NOTHING compared to what you see with your own pair of eyes.
Below are some videos of what I call the most amazing phenomenon you could lay your eyes on! Included is the stunning beauty of life. These are must see and must share HD videos of not only the Aurora but of the sky itself, I have never seen such beauty as you see outlined in these stunning time lapse videos, this is beauty we take for granted and overlook, all to often we hurry through life not even paying attention to what is around us if we would just open our eyes for even a split second… STUNNING TIMELAPSE OF THE AURORA

(N.Morgan) Many people believe that NASA has a hand in the UFO/Alien conspiracy. The belief is that NASA has helped to cover up the existence of other worldly beings and aircraft. There’s also the strong belief that NASA has helped to hide civilizations on other planets and structures we’ve seen in some of the NASA footage.
In the video below evidence is presented that substantiates the claims that astronauts not only knew about aliens and aliens structures on the Moon, but helped to cover them up.
TWO MILITARY JETS ESCORT ENORMOUS BOOMERANG OVER ARIZONA
SEPTEMBER 9, 2014 ……. McNEAL ARIZONA
At 9:08pm, My mom and I were in our barn feeding the horses for the night. I was out back closing gates when I heard a rumbling, like what you hear when a jet is flying over. I’ve heard that a hundred times. There was a full moon rising in the east about 3 or 4 fingers above the horizon and a very clear night. I looked up to the west to where I heard the plane and saw red lights moving SE but it was strange. It had 5 lights in a boomerang pattern. One on the nose and two more on each side. If it was a plane, it was the biggest plane I’ve ever seen. It was really high up too but I’ve seen airliners around that same height and it was 5 times bigger than those. There were two jet fighters tailing slightly behind the tips of its wings. I knew they were separate aircraft because they moved independently from the red lights which stayed together and they were not red but more like white/ yellow in color. As the object and jets passed over I could see the jets had blinking aircraft lights, like you see on all aircraft. I kept watching for a few more minutes until the lights faded(by the glare of the moon) to the SE. I went back to the barn and told my mother what I had seen. A few minutes after that at 920PM, I saw 2 jet fighters returning from the same direction going NW. They were no longer escorting anything and had their afterburners on. They were going much faster than when I had previously seen them.
KEN’S NOTE: Bisbee Douglas International Airport sits S S/E of NcNEAL. This Airport looks like an abandoned Air Force Base or Secret Base in Arizona. See on Google Earth. Very strange.

CONTRA COSTA COUNTY, Calif. — Both KTVU and our affiliate station in Sacramento received multiple calls about a bright light streaming across the sky around 6 a.m. (9/12)
Police at multiple stations in Contra Costa County tell KTVU they also received calls.
KTVU checked in with the Vandenberg Air Force Base and FAA who both said they aren’t aware of what may have caused the bright light.
There’s a strong solar storm scheduled to hit earth beginning Friday morning, and experts say the light could be tied to the storm.
At this point, additional details have not been released.
A new study has examined how religious and political affiliations affect how we perceive morality.
Researchers from Saint Peter’s University in New Jersey and the University of Illinois in Chicago asked 1,252 adults from the United and States and Canada a number of questions about their experiences both committing and witnessing good and bad deeds.
While those from different religious and political backgrounds might seem to be at loggerheads on a number of moral issues, the study found that people tend to commit the same number of good deeds regardless of their personal beliefs.
There were however some differences among the participants – deeply religious people tended to experience a more intense feeling of guilt or embarrassment upon committing an immoral act and a deeper sense of pride or satisfaction when committing a moral one.
On the political side, liberals and conservatives appeared to have similar morals but tended to think and talk about moral concepts in different ways.
“As far as I know, this is the first study that’s used this kind of lived-experience approach to track morality as it’s happening,” said psychologist Dan Wisneski. Read more at Live Science
I am 6 months pregnant. Before I even knew I was pregnant, I just knew I was. My husband and I had been trying barely for a month, when I dreamed I was pregnant and something inside me told me I was even though it was still two weeks before I was supposed to get my period. My body, my mind, my soul just knew I was already pregnant, I had to be. I took some test I bought at a drug store the very next day but they came out negative. It was still too early to detect it. I waited a week and took the first response pregnancy test and sure enough it was positive. I took three more just to be sure before I went to confirm with my doctor. My husband and I were extremely happy…still are, but what happened to me has me going crazy.
I’ve never had a history of mental disorders, dont even have a history of that in my whole family, both my mom’s and dad’s side. All my life I’ve been perfectly healthy. My way of thinking is always positive, always look at the bright side of things even when I know things are bad I focus on the good or I try to find an explanation for weird things that happen but unfortunately I just can not think of a single reason of why I saw what I did and felt like I did at that very moment and it has not happened again thankfully.
I am truly terrified. Never have I felt this fear in my 23 years of life. I’m getting shaky just rethinking about it, I actually feel it staring at me. I’m sorry its just so hard to type it out but I’m in desperate need of help that I will have to suck it up.
Sorry if I make any spelling mistakes I just want to write it out as fast as I can and get it over with. It happened yesterday. It was around 5:50 pm, my husband had just come home from work. He’s usually home a little before six. He pulled up, I heard his car pull into our driveway. I was in the kitchen sweeping and had the front door open with the screen door closed so I could perfectly hear him calling out to me asking if I wanted to go on a walk around the neighborhood. I yelled at him that I would be right out just had to go into my room to get my keys.
As I walked away from the kitchen and towards our room I felt this overwhelming sense of fear and like I was being watched. I could feel the heaviness as soon as I walked in the room, of what I dont know, just a real bad horrible vibe, I cannot explain it. I have a storage space in my room on the ceiling right above my closet. I have high ceilings so basically they built the closet then made a regular ceiling on it with the rest of the room is built with a high ceiling. Makes sense? Well on top of that space I have a couple of old things I no longer use but still work but there was something else on top of there watching me. I am Catholic, I was baptized and did my first communion, I might not go to church every Sunday but I go once in a great while. I believe in god in good and bad. I believe in satan as well. If good exists evil must too. With that being said I know it was the devil, satan himself on top of that staring at me. Im on the verge of tears now I dont know if I can go on but I must be strong for my baby and I, I need help.
As I walked by I could feel him, staring at my every move I could feel that he wanted to take my son with him I just knew thats what he wants. I was so scared I did not evwn want to turn my head to the right to see him, I was terrified, still am. I grabbed the keys from my purse that was on my bed and turned the opposite direction so I wouldnt face him. But i just had to have a quick glance at him, and that’s what I regret most in my life.
He was sitting on his legs but at the same time up, kind of like when a dog sits when you tell them you have a treat for them and they are sitting up waiting for it, well like that and he had thick chains with thick cuffs around both his legs, I cant even think of the proper things to call his feet. They looked like hoofs, at least one did and the other like a chicken foot but in a human looking way. Its so hard to describe. And his face, his face had regular features as an adult but his eyes had a menacing look, he had a grin on his face, like he was enjoying making me feel terrified. He looked greysih but brown also. His look though the way he was looking at me, that is engraved in my soul. He wanted to take my sweet angel from me and for reason I believe that if I would have made eye contact with him he would have taken him from me.
I tried to be strong and not show fear inside me I was yelling and running out of there but for some magical reason I maintained composure and walked away from the room with tears in my eyes. Once I reached the leaving room I ran out to my husband crying telling him what I had just saw but he couldn’t even understand me. I do not know why I saw that, was it my imagination? I doubt it, I haven’t even seen scary movies or anything. I was happy prior to that ready to go on a walk then all of a sudden that. Please believe me, I am not crazy, and no it is not my hormones. I was perfectly fine I know what I saw I know how I felt before even seeing him. My husband kind of doesn’t believe me, but hes doing everything he can to make me feel safe but its not enough.
Why does he want my unborn son, hes the light of our life even though hes not born yet we would give up our life without hesitation just to make sure hes safe. Why me, why I’ve been good where did I fail. I know most wont believe me but I swear is the truth. I just dont know what to do, I wish this was just a nightmare because its exactly how it feels. But it’s reality, my reality. I dont even want to step foot in my house. I dont know what I am going to do. I know it was not my imagination please help me – Reddit.com
UFO and government secrecy researcher John Greenewald has been petitioning to get the National Security Agency (NSA) UFO files that were released in the 90s further declassified. When they were released, after a legal battle, much of the information was redacted. There are large swaths of information that have been blacked out or covered with white out. However, the NSA recently told Greenewald they could not find even one original of the hundreds of pages UFO files.
Greenewald received this information in response to a request for a Mandatory Declassification Review (MDR) of the NSA’s UFO files. MDRs require that the agency re-review previously released redacted files to unredact information that is now declassified. This is a similar process that was used to reveal the name of Area 51 in CIA documents last year.
The MDR was fulfilled for an affidavit related to the lawsuit asking the NSA to release its UFO files in 1980, called the Yeates affidavit. As for the rest, the NSA writes, “With the exception of the enclosed document, we cannot locate unredacted copies or the original documents that were previously reviewed and released to the public.”
In the late 70s, the Citizens Against UFO Secrecy (CAUS), headed by lawyer Peter Gersten, sought to get UFO files from several government agencies released using the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). The NSA refused to release their files, so CAUS sued.
The NSA had a large amount of UFO files, not necessarily because they were investigating UFOs, but because they monitor communications worldwide as part of their regular duties. These files are called communications intelligence (COMINT). Among this large amount of data, there were hundreds of files referring to UFOs. However, the NSA felt they should remain classified.
In 1980, Eugene F. Yeates, chief of the Office of Policy for the NSA, submitted a 21 page document to the judge overseeing the case, Federal Judge Gerhart A. Gesell, as to why these files should remain classified. This is the Yeates affidavit. However, this document was also classified.
Although Gesell did not have the clearance to read the documents in question, the Yeates affidavit convinced him that the NSA files should stay classified. He wrote, “The public interest in disclosure is far outweighed by the sensitive nature of the materials and the obvious effect on national security their release may well entail.”
When the Yeates affidavit was released, it was heavily redacted. UFO researcher Stanton Friedman shows a page from the document to demonstrate government UFO secrecy, and as he says, this goes over well on television where a simple image can be very effective when making a point.
Eventually, in 1997, due to laws making it more difficult to keep files over 25 years old classified, the NSA released a less redacted Yeates affidavit, and 156 UFO documents. As Friedman puts it, the affidavit was originally about 75% blacked out, the second version was only about 20% blacked out. However, the UFO documents are heavily redacted.
The NSA must have seen Friedman’s talks or television interviews, because instead of mostly blacking out the text, this time they largely whited it out, making it much less visually poignant.
Greenewald writes, “In essence, the ‘originals’ were destroyed or lost when they blacked out the records many years ago — and now in 2014 — they are missing and can not be further reviewed for declassification and release. The history, whatever it may be, is lost forever.” Read more atOpen Minds TV

This tour bus, that makes regular trips to the border of Area 51, crossed the border made a big mistake last May. The driver was distracted by a passenger and blew right over the line. What happens next was unexpected:
What we call law is up for discussion in this time on earth. Understanding of the laws that govern the behavior of matter at small distances and the character of large cosmological structures. Two domains of nature connected when theories of fundamental particles and forces on the microscopic scale are applied to the evolution of the universe understanding the time line from the big bang to the fate of our universe. For the Romans the place par excellence where ethics, law, nature, religion and politics overlap is the law court. We are now about that which lies beyond our universal laws and thoughts that are included in the topic of cosmology. Cosmos beings observe laws. This makes for a better universe. We are only one being inside the cosmos inside this universe inside other universes inside the outer film of the all. We are all cosmos beings and the future will unfold that which we recognize as unchartered territory of the cosmos. Just like we learned over time of continents across oceans on the planet we will now recognize universes in the cosmos. There is more than just energy, matter, space, and time. This universe is vast and we will learn of space travel out among the many universes of the cosmos beings.
Get ready for the explosion in the arts and sciences we now deal with as cosmology and the universal laws. Cosmology includes metaphysics and that which is ever changing essence as a constant in the universe. The one constant in this universe is change. Some share that our ancestors left us an insurmountable way to comprehend our knowledge left inside us all as our own description of the unforgettable laws in our DNA. Law of Thinking, Law of Supply, Law of Attraction, Law of Receiving, Law of Increase, Law of Compensation, Law of Non-Resistance, Law of Forgiveness, Law of Sacrifice, Law of Obedience, and the Law of Success are referred to as the forgotten laws. The observation that there are underlying regularities in nature dates to prehistoric times, since the recognition of cause-and-effect relationships is an implicit recognition that there are laws of nature
Recognition of regularities as independent scientific laws was limited by entanglement in animism, and by attribution of effects that do not have readily obvious causes—such as meteorological, astronomical and biological phenomena—to the actions of various gods, spirits, supernatural beings, and extraterrestrials. We now are making our own observations of that which is there and cannot hurt us.
Observation and speculation about nature were intimately bound up with metaphysics and morality. Now we share the universe with those who are thousands if not millions of earth years older than us all.
Those of us who have passed only to return again know that we can return. Some call this reincarnation. Is this the review of the majority who return after experiencing life after death or what some call a near death experience? The Law of Divine Oneness – everything is connected to everything else. What we think, say, do and believe will have a corresponding effect on others and the universe around us. What we call laws may or may not be exactly the whole truth and nothing but the truth so help us God. We are all sentient intelligent beings as renewable life source. The discussion of what is the force in source of all that is has yet to named and defined as the “Theory of Everything” or the “God Theory”.
Therefore we shall continue to redefine our laws of nature and universal laws in our development of humankind and our universal creation inside other universes. Those who desire to take the time to share energy, matter, space, and time with me and others of our kind may want to become familiar with certain laws that humanoids have defined through time spent on planet earth. Spiritual science is changing and so are we.
Many laws fall within the scope of uncomfortable science. Other laws are pragmatic and observational, such as the law of unintended consequences. By analogy, principles in other fields of study are sometimes loosely referred to as “laws”. These include Occam's razor as a principle of philosophy and the Pareto principle of economics. In law and ethics, universal law or universal principle refers as concepts of legal legitimacy actions, whereby those principles and rules for governing human beings' conduct which are most universal in their acceptability, their applicability, translation, and philosophical basis, are therefore considered to be most legitimate.
One type of Universal Law is the Law of Logic which prohibits logical contradictions known as sophistry. Universal Law, the Law of Logic is based upon the universal idea that logic is defined as that which is not illogical; and, that which is illogical is that which involves a logical contradiction, such as, attempting to assert that an apple and no apple can exist at and in the same time and in the same place; and, attempting to assert that A and not A can exist at and in the same time and in the same place. Legal models of scientific judgment turn up all over the place, and for example prove equally integral to Ptolemy's approach to verification, where the mind is assigned the role of magistrate, the senses that of disclosure of evidence, and dialectical reason that of the law itself.
In Europe, systematic theorizing about nature (physis) began with the early Greek philosophers and scientists and continued into the Hellenistic and Roman imperial periods, during which times the intellectual influence of Roman law increasingly became paramount. The formula “law of nature” first appears as “a live metaphor” favored by Latin poets Lucretius, Virgil, Ovid, Manilius, in time gaining a firm theoretical presence in the prose treatises of Seneca and Pliny. Why this Roman origin? According to historian and classicist Daryn Lehoux's persuasive narrative, the idea was made possible by the pivotal role of codified law and forensic argument in Roman life and culture.
Natural law in the political sense, conceived as universal i.e., divorced from sectarian religion and accidents of place, was also elaborated in this period by Grotius, Spinoza, and Hobbes, to name a few. Some mathematical theorems and axioms are referred to as laws because they provide logical foundation to empirical laws. When we read Seneca's Natural Questions, and watch again and again just how he applies standards of evidence, witness evaluation, argument and proof, we can recognize that we are reading one of the great Roman rhetoricians of the age, thoroughly immersed in forensic method. And not Seneca alone. We are rewriting history and anewing our definitions of truth. We are about anew news for the lightworkers and truthseekers in search of universal immortals. We are here on this planet to learn more than we arrived with as far as essence and will take our memories with us when we leave this level of existence
The precise formulation of what are now recognized as modern and valid statements of the laws of nature dates from the 17th century in Europe, with the beginning of accurate experimentation and development of advanced form of mathematics. The modern scientific method which took shape at this time with Francis Bacon and Galileo aimed at total separation of science from theology, with minimal speculation about metaphysics and ethics. The inverse square law of interactions mediated by massless bosons is the mathematical consequence of the 3-dimensionality of space. One strategy in the search for the most fundamental laws of nature is to search for the most general mathematical symmetry group that can be applied to the fundamental interactions. Compared to pre-modern accounts of causality, laws of nature fill the role played by divine causality on the one hand, and accounts such as Plato's theory of forms on the other.
Physical laws are typically conclusions based on repeated scientific experiments and observations over many years and which have become accepted universally within the scientific community. The production of a summary description of our environment in the form of such laws is a fundamental aim of science. These terms are not used the same way by all authors. A physical law or scientific law, according to the Oxford English dictionary, “is a theoretical principle deduced from particular facts, applicable to a defined group or class of phenomena, and expressible by the statement that a particular phenomenon always occurs if certain conditions be present.” The distinction between natural law in the political-legal sense and law of nature or physical law in the scientific sense is a modern one, both concepts being equally derived from physis, the Greek word translated into Latin as natura for nature. Several general properties of physical laws have been identified Davies (1992) and Feynman (1965) as noted, although each of the characterizations are not necessarily original to them.
Physical laws are true, at least within their regime of validity. By definition, there have never been repeatable contradicting observations. Physical laws are distinguished from scientific theories by their simplicity. Scientific theories are generally more complex than laws; they have many component parts, and are more likely to be changed as the body of available experimental data and analysis develops. This is because a physical law is a summary observation of strictly empirical matters, whereas a theory is a model that accounts for the observation, explains it, relates it to other observations, and makes testable predictions based upon it. Simply stated, while a law notes that something happens, a theory explains why and how something happens.
Examples:
Universal. They appear to apply everywhere in the universe. (Davies, 1992:82)
Simple. They are typically expressed in terms of a single mathematical equation. (Davies)
Absolute. Nothing in the universe appears to affect them. (Davies, 1992:82)
Stable. Unchanged since first discovered although they may have been shown to be approximations of more accurate laws—see “Laws as approximations” below,
Omnipotent. Everything in the universe apparently must comply with them according to observations. (Davies, 1992:83)
Generally conservative of quantity. (Feynman, 1965:59)
Often expressions of existing homogeneities symmetries of space and time. (Feynman)
Typically theoretically reversible in time if non-quantum, although time itself is irreversible. (Feynman)
Some laws are only approximations of other more general laws, and are good approximations with a restricted domain of applicability.
Law of Vibration– Everything in the Universe moves, vibrates and travels in circular patterns, the same principles of vibration in the physical world apply to our thoughts, feelings, desires and wills in the Etheric world. Each sound, thing, and even thought has its own vibrational frequency, unique unto itself.
Law of Action– Must be employed in order for us to manifest things on earth. We must engage in actions that supports our thoughts dreams, emotions and words
Law of Correspondence– This Universal Law states that the principles or laws of physics that explain the physical world energy, Light, vibration, and motion have their corresponding principles in the etheric or universe “As above, so below”
Law of Cause and Effect– Nothing happens by chance or outside the Universal Laws.. Every Action including thought has a reaction or consequence “We reap what we sow”
Law of Compensation- the Universal Law is the Law of Cause and effect applied to blessings and abundance that are provided for us. The visible effects of our deeds are given to us in gifts, money, inheritances, friendships and blessings.
Law of Attraction – Demonstrates how we create the things, events and people that come into our lives our thoughts, feelings, words, and actions produce energies which, in turn attract like energies. Negative energies attract negative energies and positive energies attract positive energies.
The Law of Perpetual Transmutation of Energy – All persons have within them the power to change the conditions of their lives. Higher vibrations consume and transform lower ones; thus, each of us can change the energies in our lives by understanding the Universal Laws and applying the principles in such a way as to effect change
Law of Relativity – Each person will receive as series of problems tests of Initiation and lessons for the purpose of strengthening the light within each of these tests lessons to be a challenge and remain connected to our hearts when proceeding to solve the problems. This law also teaches us to compare our problems to others problem into its proper perspective. No matter how bad we perceive our situation to be, there is always someone who is in a worse position. It’s all relative.
Law of Polarity – Everything is on a continuum and has and opposite. We can suppress and transform undesirable thoughts by concentrating on the opposite pole. It is the law of mental vibrations.
Law of Rhythm– Everything vibrates and moves to certain rhythms… These rhythms establish seasons, cycles, stages of development, and patterns. Each cycle reflects the regularity of God's Universe. Masters know how to rise above negative parts of a cycle by never getting to excited or allowing negative things to penetrate their consciousness.
Law of Gender – The law of gender manifests in all things as masculine and feminine. It is this law that governs what we know as creation. The law of gender manifests in the animal kingdom as sex. This law decrees everything in nature is both male and female. Both are required for life to exist. The Kybalion
The Seven Hermetic Principles. “The Principles of Truth are Seven; he who knows these, understandingly, possesses the Magic Key before whose touch all the Doors of the Temple fly open.” — The Kybalion.
The Seven Hermetic Principles, upon which the entire Hermetic Philosophy is based, are as follows:
I. THE PRINCIPLE OF MENTALISM.
“THE ALL is MIND; The Universe is Mental.” — The Kybalion.
This Principle embodies the truth that “All is Mind.” It explains that THE ALL which is the substantial reality underlying all the outward manifestations and appearances which we know under the terms of “The Material Universe”; the “Phenomena of Life”; “Matter”; “Energy”; and, in short, all that is apparent to our material senses is SPIRIT, which in itself is UNKNOWABLE and UNDEFINABLE, but which may be considered and thought of as AN UNIVERSAL, INFINITE, LIVING MIND. It also explains that all the phenomenal world or universe is simply a Mental Creation of THE ALL, subject to the Laws of Created Things, and that the universe, as a whole, and in its parts or units, has its existence in the Mind of THE ALL, in which Mind we “live and move and have our being.” This Principle, by establishing the Mental Nature of the Universe, easily explains all of the varied mental and psychic phenomena that occupy such a large portion of the public attention, and which, without such explanation, are non-understandable and defy scientific treatment. An understanding of this great hermetic Principle of Mentalism enables the individual to readily grasp the laws of the Mental Universe, and to apply the same to his well-being and advancement. The Hermetic Student is enabled to apply intelligently the great Mental Laws, instead of using them in a haphazard manner. With tire Master-Key in his possession, the student may unlock the many doors of the mental and psychic temple of knowledge, and enter the same freely and intelligently. This Principle explains the true nature of “Energy,” “Power,” and “Matter,” and why and how all these are subordinate to the Mastery of Mind. One of the old Hermetic Masters wrote, long ages ago: “He who grasps the truth of the Mental Nature of the Universe is well advanced on The Path to Mastery.” And these words are as true to-day as at the time they were first written. Without this Master-Key, Mastery is impossible, and the student knocks in vain at the many doors of The Temple.
II. THE PRINCIPLE OF CORRESPONDENCE.
“As above, so below; as below so above.” This Principle embodies the truth that there is always a Correspondence between the laws and phenomena of the various planes of Being and Life. The old Hermetic axiom ran in these words: “As above, so below; as below, so above.” And the grasping of this Principle gives one the means of solving many a dark paradox, and hidden secret of Nature. There are planes beyond our knowing, but when we apply the Principle of Correspondence to them we are able to understand much that would otherwise be unknowable to us. This Principle is of universal application and manifestation, on the various planes of the material, mental, and spiritual universe — it is a Universal Law. The ancient Hermetists considered this Principle as one of the most important mental instruments by which man was able to pry aside the obstacles which hid from view the Unknown. Its use even tore aside the Veil of Isis to the extent that a glimpse of the face of the goddess might be caught. Just as a knowledge of the Principles of Geometry enables man to measure distant suns and their movements, while seated in his observatory, so a knowledge of the Principle of Correspondence enables Man to reason intelligently from the Known to the Unknown. Studying the monad, he understands the archangel.
III. THE PRINCIPLE OF VIBRATION.
“Nothing rests; everything moves; everything vibrates.” This Principle embodies the truth that “everything is in motion”; “everything vibrates”; “nothing is at rest”; facts which Modern Science endorses, and which each new scientific discovery tends to verify. And yet this Hermetic Principle was enunciated thousands of years ago, by the Masters of Ancient Egypt. This Principle explains that the differences between different manifestations of Matter, Energy, Mind, and even Spirit, result largely from varying rates of Vibration. From THE ALL, which is Pure Spirit, down to the grossest form of Matter, all is in vibration — the higher the vibration, the higher the position in the scale. The vibration of Spirit is at such an infinite rate of intensity and rapidity that it is practically at rest — just as a rapidly moving wheel seems to be motionless. And at the other end of the scale, there are gross forms of matter whose vibrations are so low as to seem at rest. Between these poles, there are millions upon millions of varying degrees of vibration. From corpuscle and electron, atom and molecule, to worlds and universes, everything is in vibratory motion. This is also true on the planes of energy and force (which are but varying degrees of vibration); and also on the mental planes (whose states depend upon vibrations); and even on to the spiritual planes. An understanding of this Principle, with the appropriate formulas, enables Hermetic students to control their own mental vibrations as well as those of others. The Masters also apply this Principle to the conquering of Natural phenomena, in various ways. “He who understands the Principle of Vibration, has grasped the sceptre of Power,” says one of the old writers.
IV. THE PRINCIPLE OF POLARITY.
“Everything is Dual; everything has poles; everything has its pair of opposites; like and unlike are the same; opposites are identical in nature, but different in degree; extremes meet; all truths are but half-truths; all paradoxes may be reconciled.” — The Kybalion.
This Principle embodies the truth that “everything is dual”; “everything has two poles”; “everything has its pair of opposites,” all of which were old Hermetic axioms. It explains the old paradoxes, that have perplexed so many, which have been stated as follows: “Thesis and anti-thesis are identical in nature, but different in degree”; “opposites are the same, differing only in degree”; “the pairs of opposites may be reconciled”; “extremes meet”; “everything is and isn't, at the same time”; “all truths are but half-truths”; “every truth is half-false”; “there are two sides to everything,” etc., etc., etc. It explains that in everything there are two poles, or opposite aspects, and that “opposites” are really only the two extremes of the same thing, with many varying degrees between them. To illustrate: Heat and Cold, although “opposites,” are really the same thing, the differences consisting merely of degrees of the same thing. Look at your thermometer and see if you can discover where “heat” terminates and “cold” begins! There is no such thing as “absolute heat” or “absolute cold” — the two terms “heat” and “cold” simply indicate varying degrees of the same thing, and that “same thing” which manifests as “heat” and “cold” is merely a form, variety, and rate of Vibration. So “heat” and “cold” are simply the “two poles” of that which we call “Heat” — and the phenomena attendant thereupon are manifestations of the Principle of Polarity. The same Principle manifests in the case of “Light and Darkness,” which are the same thing, the difference consisting of varying degrees between the two poles of the phenomena. Where does “darkness” leave off, and “light” begin? What is the difference between “Large and Small”? Between “Hard and Soft”? Between “Black and White”? Between “Sharp and Dull”? Between “Noise and Quiet”? Between “High and Low”? Between “Positive and Negative”? The Principle of Polarity explains these paradoxes, and no other Principle can supersede it. The same Principle operates on the Mental Plane. Let us take a radical and extreme example — that of “Love and Hate,” two mental states apparently totally different. And yet there are degrees of hate and degrees of Love, and a middle point in which we use the terms “Like or Dislike,” which shade into each other so gradually that sometimes we are at a loss to know whether we “like” or “dislike” or “neither.” And all are simply degrees of the same thing, as you will see if you will but think a moment. And, more than this (and considered of more importance by the Hermetists), it is possible to change the vibrations of hate to the vibrations of Love, in one's own mind, and in the minds of others. Many of you, who read these lines, have had personal experiences of the involuntary rapid transition from Love to Hate, and the reverse, in your own ease and that of others. And you will therefore realize the possibility of this being accomplished by the use of the Will, by means of the Hermetic formulas. “Good and Evil” are but the poles of the same thing, and the Hermetist understands the art of transmuting Evil into Good, by means of an application of the Principle of Polarity. In short, the “Art of Polarization” becomes a phase of “Mental Alchemy” known and practiced by the ancient and modern Hermetic Masters. An understanding of the Principle will enable one to change his own Polarity, as well as that of others, if he will devote the time and study necessary to master the art.
V. THE PRINCIPLE OF RHYTHM.
“Everything flows, out and in; everything has its tides; all things rise and fall; the pendulum-swing manifests in everything; the measure of the swing to the right is the measure of the swing to the left; rhythm compensates.” — The Kybalion.
This Principle embodies the truth that in everything there is manifested a measured motion, to and fro; a flow and inflow; a swing backward and forward; a pendulum-like movement; a tide-like ebb and flow; a high-tide and low-tide; between the two poles which exist in accordance with the Principle of Polarity described a moment ago. There is always an action and a reaction; an advance and a retreat a rising and a sinking. This is in the affairs of the Universe, suns, worlds, men, animals, mind, energy, and matter. This law is manifest in the creation and destruction of worlds; in the rise and fall of nations; in the life of all things; and finally in the mental states of Man (and it is with this latter that the Hermetists find the understanding of the Principle most important). The Hermetists have grasped this Principle, finding its universal application, and have also discovered certain means to overcome its effects in themselves by the use of the appropriate formulas and methods. They apply the Mental Law of Neutralization. They cannot annul the Principle, or Cause it to cease its operation, but they have learned how to escape its effects upon themselves to a certain degree depending upon the Mastery of the Principle. They have learned how to USE it, instead of being USED BY it. In this and similar methods, consist the Art of the Hermetists. The Master of Hermetics polarizes himself at the point at which he desires to rest, and then neutralizes the Rhythmic swing of the pendulum which would tend to carry him to the other pole. All individuals who have attained any degree of Self-Mastery do this to a certain degree, more or less unconsciously, but the Master does this consciously, and by the use of his Will and attains a degree of Poise and Mental Firmness almost impossible of belief on the part of the masses who are swung backward and forward like a pendulum. This Principle and that of Polarity have been closely studied by the Hermetists, and the methods of counteracting, neutralizing and USING them form an important part of the Hermetic Mental Alchemy.
VI. THE PRINCIPLE OF CAUSE AND EFFECT.
“Every Cause has its Effect; every Effect has its Cause; everything happens according to Law; Chance is but a name for Law not recognized; there are many planes of causation, but nothing escapes the Law.”
This Principle embodies the fact that there is a Cause for every Effect; an Effect from every Cause. It explains that: “Everything Happens according to Law”; that nothing ever “merely happens”; that there is no such thing as Chance; that while there are various planes of Cause and Effect, the higher dominating the lower planes, still nothing ever entirely escapes the Law.
The Hermetists understand the art and methods of rising above the ordinary plane of Cause and Effect, to a certain degree, and by mentally rising to a higher plane they become Causers instead of Effects. The masses of people are carried along, obedient to environment; the wills and desires of others stronger than themselves; heredity; suggestion; and other outward causes moving them about like pawns on the Chessboard of Life. But the Masters, rising to the plane above, dominate their moods, characters, qualities, and powers, as well as the environment surrounding them, and become Movers instead of pawns.
They help to PLAY THE GAME OF LIFE, instead of being played and moved about by other wills and environment. They USE the Principle instead of being its tools. The Masters obey the Causation of the higher planes, but they help to RULE on their own plane. In this statement there is condensed a wealth of Hermetic knowledge — let him read who can.
VII. THE PRINCIPLE OF GENDER.
“Gender is in everything; everything has its Masculine and Feminine Principles Gender; manifests on all planes.” — The Kybalion.
This Principle embodies the truth that there is GENDER manifested in everything — the Masculine and Feminine Principles ever at work. This is true not only of the Physical Plane, but of the Mental and even the Spiritual Planes. On the Physical Plane, the Principle manifests as SEX, on the higher planes it takes higher forms, but the Principle is ever the same? No creation, physical, mental or spiritual, is possible without this Principle. An understanding of its laws will throw light on many a subject that has perplexed the minds of men. The Principle of Gender works ever in the direction of generation, regeneration, and creation. Everything, and every person, contains the two Elements or Principles, or this great Principle, within it, him or her. Every Male thing has the Female Element also; every Female contains also the Male Principle.
If you would understand the philosophy of Mental and Spiritual Creation, Generation, and Re-generation, you must understand and study this Hermetic Principle. It contains the solution of many mysteries of Life. We caution you that this Principle has no reference to the many base, pernicious and degrading lustful theories, teachings and practices, which are taught under fanciful titles, and which are a prostitution of the great natural principle of Gender. Such base revivals of the ancient infamous forms of Phallicism tend to ruin mind, body and soul, and the Hermetic Philosophy has ever sounded the warning note against these degraded teachings which tend toward lust, licentiousness, and perversion of Nature's principles. If you seek such teachings, you must go elsewhere for them — Hermeticism contains nothing for you along these lines. To the pure, all things are pure; to the base, all things are base.
Newtonian dynamics which is based on Galilean transformations is the low speed limit of special relativity since the Galilean transformation is the low-speed approximation to the Lorentz transformation. The Newtonian gravitation law is a low-mass approximation of general relativity, and Coulomb's law is an approximation to Quantum Electrodynamics at large distances compared to the range of weak interactions. In such cases it is common to use the simpler, approximate versions of the laws, instead of the more accurate general laws.
Some of the more famous laws of nature are found in Isaac Newton's theories now of classical mechanics, presented in his Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica, and in Albert Einstein's theory of relativity. Other examples of laws of nature include Boyle's law of gases, conservation laws, the four laws of thermodynamics, etc.
While these “scientific laws” explain what our senses perceive, they are still empirical and, thus, they are not “mathematical” facts. Some “scientific laws” appear to be mathematical definitions e.g., Newton's Second law F = dp⁄dt, or the uncertainty principle, or the principle of least action, or causality. Reference to a “law” often suggests a “fact”, although “facts” do not exist scientifically a priori.
Laws are constantly being checked experimentally to higher and higher degrees of precision.
This is one of the main goals of science.
The fact that laws have never been seen to be violated does not preclude testing them at increased accuracy or new kinds of conditions to confirm whether they continue to hold, or whether they break, and what can be discovered in the process.
Other laws reflect mathematical symmetries found in Nature say, Pauli exclusion-principle reflects identity of electrons, conservation laws reflect homogeneity of space, time, and Lorentz transformations reflect rotational symmetry of space–time.
It is always possible for laws to be invalidated or proven to have limitations, by repeatable experimental evidence; should any be seen.
Fundamental changes to the laws are extremely unlikely, since this would imply a change to experimental facts they were derived from in the first place.
Well-established laws have indeed been invalidated in some special cases, but the new formulations created to explain the discrepancies can be said to generalize upon, rather than overthrow, the originals. Invalidated laws have been found to be only close approximations to which other terms or factors must be added to cover previously unaccounted-for conditions, e.g., very large or very small scales of time or space, enormous speeds or masses, etc. Thus, rather than unchanging knowledge, physical laws are better viewed as a series of improving and more precise generalizations.
Many fundamental physical laws are mathematical consequences of various symmetries of space, time, or other aspects of nature. Specifically, Noether's theorem connects some conservation laws to certain symmetries. For example, conservation of energy is a consequence of the shift symmetry of time no moment of time is different from any other, while conservation of momentum is a consequence of the symmetry (homogeneity) of space no place in space is special, or different than any other. The indistinguishability of all particles of each fundamental type say, electrons, or photons results in the Dirac and Bose quantum statistics which in turn result in the Pauli exclusion principle for fermions and in Bose–Einstein condensation for bosons. The rotational symmetry between time and space coordinate axes that is when one is taken as imaginary, and another as real results in Lorentz transformations which in turn result in special relativity theory. Symmetry between inertial and gravitational mass results in general relativity.
Examples of other observed phenomena sometimes described as laws include the Titius-Bode law of planetary positions, Zipf's law of linguistics, and Moore’s law of technological growth. Zipf's law states that given some corpus of natural language utterances, the frequency of any word is inversely proportional to its rank in the frequency table. Thus the most frequent word will occur approximately twice as often as the second most frequent word, three times as often as the third most frequent word, etc. For example, in the Brown Corpus of American English text, the word “the” is the most frequently occurring word, and by itself accounts for nearly 7% of all word occurrences (69,971 out of slightly over 1 million). True to Zipf's Law, the second-place word “of” accounts for slightly over 3.5% of words (36,411 occurrences), followed by “and” (28,852). Only 135 vocabulary items are needed to account for half the Brown Corpus.
The same relationship occurs in many other rankings unrelated to language, such as the population ranks of cities in various countries, corporation sizes, income rankings, ranks of number of people watching the same TV channel, and so on. The appearance of the distribution in rankings of cities by population was first noticed by Felix Auer Bach in 1913. Zipf's law, an empirical law formulated using mathematical statistics, refers to the fact that many types of data studied in the physical and social sciences can be approximated with a Zipfian distribution, one of a family of related discrete power law probability distributions. The law is named after the American linguist George Kingsley Zipf (1902–1950), who first proposed it (Zipf 1935, 1949), though the French stenographer Jean-Baptiste Estoup (1868–1950) appears to have noticed the regularity before Zipf. It was also noted in 1913 by German physicist Felix Auerbach (1856–1933). Empirically, a data set can be tested to see if Zipf's law applies by checking the goodness of fit of an empirical distribution to the hypothesized power law distribution with a Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, and then comparing the log likelihood ratio of the power law distribution to alternative distributions like an exponential distribution or lognormal distribution. When Zipf's law is checked for cities, a better fit has been found with b = 1.07. While Zipf's law holds for the upper tail of the distribution, the entire distribution of cities is log-normal and follows Gibrat's law.Both laws are consistent because a log-normal tail can typically not be distinguished from a Pareto (Zipf) tail. When we read Seneca's Natural Questions, and watch again and again just how he applies standards of evidence, witness evaluation, argument and proof, we can recognize that we are reading one of the great Roman rhetoricians of the age, thoroughly immersed in forensic method. And not Seneca alone since we are all on the same path to return to the origin from whence we came with more than we began with on this journey of life. Be about cosmic consciousness. Be about exploration of the mind and how we can all cohabitate together on this planet. Spread the news that the laws are changing as we learn more about our universe.

Since the publication of our book Real Encounters, Different Dimensions, and Otherworldly Beings (Visible Ink Press, 2013), we have received numerous entreaties from readers who have found themselves dealing with Spirit Mimics, other-dimensional beings that often pose as ordinary men and women in order to accomplish goals that seem beyond our present human perspective to comprehend. In appearance, these beings seem to be about 97% just like us, but there is always that 3% or so that betrays them. Perhaps it is something in their manner of speaking or their choice of wearing apparel that just doesn’t seem quite right.
By Brad and Sherry Steiger
Many of these accounts reported strange encounters with entities that masqueraded as humans in ordinary situations presented in everyday society, but something seemed false, off-key, and strangely haunting. Some of our correspondents described their encounter playing out as if they were seeing a ghost in broad daylight walking the streets of their city or as if they found themselves interacting with a manikin that had escaped from the display window of a department store. Most disturbing were those individuals who found themselves temporarily deceived by entities impersonating their family members.
In his Adventures with Phantoms (London, Quality Press, 1946), it seems as though British author Thurston Hopkins was also onto the Spirit Mimics. He said that he had come to recognize a kind of entity that appears to occupy a spiritual no-man’s land, and he described them in this way:
They are creatures who have strayed from some unknown region. They dress like us; pretend they belong to mankind and profess to keep our laws and code of morals. But in their presence we are always aware that they are phantoms and that all their ideas and actions are out of key with the general pitch and tone of normal life.
We have said many times that we are puzzled by the Spirit Mimics true agenda. Perhaps they are among the dark entities of ancient times, who seek to enslave the souls of humankind. If this is true, their numbers and their ventures into our world are happening more often and becoming more common. Indeed, it often seems of late that their program of dominating and controlling humankind might have been accelerated according to some larger cosmic plan to which our species is not privy.
One of our European correspondents who has keenly developed psychic abilities and is usually able to read people with remarkable accuracy, wrote recently to share this encounter with Spirit Mimics that she believed were beings from another world:
I was eating at a restaurant with my husband and daughter. I noticed a weird vibration emanating from this couple right next to us. When my husband left to get our drinks, I looked over at the couple and made direct eye contact with each of them.
They were both:
1. Very tall and thin and perfect looking. My rational mind thought they must be professional models.
2. They had high-cheekbones, very elongated. Very blue eyes. No flaws on their faces.
3. They were very well-dressed. His hair was perfect in that modern short, blunt cut; hers, that short stylish bob. She had red hair, blue eyes. He had reddish/brown hair, blue eyes. He wore very stylish jeans and a nice crisp shirt/jacket. She had a stylish sweater, slacks, and boots. Usually these beings are not well-dressed.
4. They exuded a sense of eerie specialness, separateness, entitlement. No warm fuzzy feelings toward us or our daughter.
What really struck me when I made eye contact was that I could not read them. They blocked me. I think they knew that I sensed they were very human-looking ETs. I love to people-watch and often people watch my daughter. She is very cute, so I make a lot of eye contact and sense people's goodness and humanity. These beings looked human, but I did not sense human, but other. They did eat, very small amounts of soup, yogurt maybe a tea.
After we made initial eye contact, I think I spooked them. They rose up at the same time and walked off in opposite directions.
I saw he had no keys in his hands, she had no purse. They didn't even say good-bye to one another or hug or do the chit-chat good-bye that normal people might do. I have seen these ETs or some like them so many times over the years, but this was the first time I was not really afraid but very curious.
Gary, 67, wrote to us to report that in the spring of 2003 he was driving through Oregon and stopped for gas at a small station off the regularly traveled highway in the area. He was drawn to the place because it reminded him of some of the old gas stations that were popular when he was a kid back in the late 1940s in the Midwest.
When I walked inside, I had the strangest feeling that I had walked into a movie set depicting American life a few decades ago, Gary said. The man who was the obvious owner of the station wore coveralls with the emblem of the gas company prominently placed on the chest of the uniform. A white-haired lady behind a small lunch counter gave me a warm, motherly smile. Two men in plaid shirts and jeans who seemed to be typical bearded lumberjacks, nodded in my direction and then went back to examining a display of fish hooks. A boy, maybe 10-years-old, sat at a table reading comic books that he had removed from a rack of magazines. As I passed the magazine spindle, I thought that they must all be collector’s issues for sale, because I saw the covers of The Saturday Evening Post, Colliers, Look, Argosy, and True: The Man’s Magazine. When I saw that the kid was flipping through a Captain Marvel comic, I couldn’t resist telling him to treat it gently. It was worth a lot of money.
As Gary walked across the cozy interior to pay for his gas, the man in the coveralls seemed uncertain what to do with the hundred dollar bill that he handed him. I’m sorry, Gary said. That’s the smallest that I have. I’ve been on vacation and I always try to save the large bills for emergency. Now I’m out of money and needed gas, so it’s kind of an emergency.
The man held the bill, smiled, and looked toward the woman behind the counter.
Look, I have credit cards, if that works better for you, Gary said.
The woman, the All-American Mom, crossed to the cash register and took the bill from the man’s hand.
While she was counting out the bills, one of the lumberjacks spoke to Gary. Where you heading, friend?
Nuclear Reactor Discovered Is 1.8 Billion Years Old
Nuclear Reactor Discovered Is 1.8 Billion Years Old
A nuclear reactor discovered in Gabon determined to be 1.8 billion years old believed by Nobel Prize winner to be man-made. (photo/philosophicalanthropology)
This engraving was determined to be 65 million years old. (photo/gstatic.com)
Some scientists maintain there is indisputable evidence that mankind existed many millions of years ago, with civilizations as advanced or more advanced than ours is today.
So folks, let’s keep an open mind.
Was Galileo the first to invent the telescope? A carved rock found in Peru, said to be engraved 65 million years ago, has a picture of a human observing the stars through a telescope.
Hang on! Didn’t Galileo invent the telescope in 1609? That’s what I learnt at school. Go figure!
Here’s another one – a large scale highly-advanced nuclear reactor was discovered in Gabon in Africa in 1972. It was established that came into being an incredible 1.8 BILLION years ago.
Hard to believe? Well, what if this is true?
Kinda makes a mockery of our science study books, just maybe they need to be re-written in part.

UFO mania: O’HARE UFO INCIDENT: STILL NO ANSWERS
UFO mania: O’HARE UFO INCIDENT: STILL NO ANSWERS
I always assumed that most fantastical UFO stories occurred only in the past. The ‘Flatwoods UFO incident‘, ‘The Shag Harbour‘, The Rendlesham Forest incident….
But what occurred one cloudy morning in 2006 at Chicago’s international O’Hare airport could potentially be a modern marvel in Ufology. On November 7th, 2006, an employee noticed a large, dark disc hovering above the runway space.
The employee quickly realized that what they were looking at was not normal and should not be floating there in the middle of a busy airspace.
The word spread through the staff’s radios of a mysterious floating object above O’hare International. Pilots, air traffic controllers, employees, and travelers alike bore witness to the hovering UFO.
There were reports of pilots peering out their cockpit windows in the runway and staff going outside for a better look of the object. In the midst of all the commotion and without warning, the disc broke away.
Shooting straight up through the cloud bank that blanketed the airport, piercing straight through the thickness and leaving a large visible hole punched through the clouds. The UFO had zipped up into the sky at an incredible speed according to the witnesses.
A reporter soon got wind of what had transpired at O’hare and inquiries were made to the United Airlines to follow up with the initial report from their employee. United Airlines denied such a thing occurred and claimed to know nothing of the incident.
The reporter from the Chicago Tribune then began making calls to the FAA to see if they had any information.
The Federal Aviation Administration responded just as the airline did and claimed no knowledge of any strange aerial reports during that time. Days passed and rumors began to swirl about a coverup.
The airport officials and the FAA both denied any knowledge of the incident and claimed that there had been no reports even through hundreds of those who were traveling at the time continued to talk.
Then, the newspaper came forward and said that they had filed a Freedom of Information Act request and that they had uncovered the coverup.
What they got back showed that the United Airlines officials knew about the reports that were filed by their employees and had in turned asked the FAA about the supposed UFO sighting.
When confronted with the information, the FAA quickly released a statement saying that what many airport employees and travelers had seen that November day was a strange weather phenomenon. (Xavier Ortega)

A 215 Month Pause
A 215 Month Pause
Hi all:
Stanton Friedman devoted a chapter about Global warming in his 2010 "Science was Wrong - Startling Truths About Cures, Theories, and Inventions "they" Declared Impossible".
The numbers are in and the verdict is that there has been no global warming for 17 years and 11 months, according to satellite data.
Satellite data prepared by Lord Christopher Monckton shows there has been no warming trend from October of 1996 to August of 2014 — 215 months. To put this in perspective, kids graduating from high school this year have not lived through any global warming in their lifetimes.
According to Monckton — the third Viscount Monckton of Brenchley and a former policy adviser to U.K. Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher — the rate of warming has been half of what climate scientists initially predicted in the early 1990s.
The United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) first predicted in 1990 that global temperatures would rise at a rate of 2.8 degrees Celsius per century. But the temperature rise since the IPCC’s prediction has only been at a rate of 1.4 degrees Celsius per century.
The so-called “pause” in global warming has baffled climate scientists, as many climate models did not predict a prolonged period of little to no warming. While some climate scientists deny the “pause” in global warming even exists, others have looked to places ocean and wind patterns for answers as to why there has been no warming for nearly two decades.
There are now literally dozens of potential explanations for the global warming “pause,” ranging from increasing volcanic activity to Chinese coal-fired power plant emissions.
“The Great Pause is a growing embarrassment to those who had told us with ‘substantial confidence’ that the science was settled and the debate over,” Monckton wrote in his climate analysis. “Nature had other ideas.”
“Though more than two dozen more or less implausible excuses for the Pause are appearing in nervous reviewed journals, the possibility that the Pause is occurring because the computer models are simply wrong about the sensitivity of temperature to manmade greenhouse gases can no longer be dismissed,” Monckton added.
Recent articles have claimed that excess heat has been stored in the Earth’s oceans instead of going up into the atmosphere. A new study in the journal Science claims that global warming “slowdown is mainly caused by heat transported to deeper layers in the Atlantic and the Southern oceans, initiated by a recurrent salinity anomaly in the subpolar North Atlantic.”
Pacific and Atlantic oscillation cycles supposedly force warm water deeper and bring up cooler waters to the surface — the reverse of what ocean patterns were doing in the 1990s when global temperatures were rising.
But meteorologists have been predicting a weak el Niño this fall and winter, which would warm ocean waters and potentially put an end to the “pause” in global warming.
“The Great Pause may well come to an end by this winter,” said Monckton.“An el Niño event is underway and would normally peak during the northern hemisphere winter. There is too little information to say how much temporary warming it will cause, but a new wave of warm water has emerged in recent days, so one should not yet write off this el Niño as a non-event.”
El Niños occur every few years and can cause global temperatures to temporarily spike. Such events caused temperature spikes in 1998, 2007 and 2010, according to Monckton’s data. But these temperature spikes are often succeeded by huge drops in temperatures due to la Niña events.

Pope Francis says he would baptise aliens: 'Who are we to close doors?
Pope Francis has said that he would be willing to baptise aliens if they came to the Vatican, asking “who are we to close doors” to anyone - even Martians.
In a homily yesterday dedicated to the concepts of acceptance and inclusion, Francis recalled a Bible story about the conversion of the first pagans to Christianity, according to reports on Vatican Radio.
He said Catholicism was a church of “open doors”, and that it was up to Christians to accept the Holy Spirit however “unthinkable” and “unimaginable” it appeared.
Describing how, according to the Bible, Peter was criticised by the Christians of Jerusalem for making contact with a community of “unclean” pagans, Francis said that at the time that too was “unthinkable”.
“If, for example, tomorrow an expedition of Martians came to us here and one said ‘I want to be baptised!’, what would happen?”
Clarifying that he really was talking about aliens, the Pope said: “Martians, right? Green, with long noses and big ears, like in children’s drawings.”
In pictures: 'The many popes of Pope Francis'
Francis said that Christianity had struggled from its earliest stages with the temptation to reject “the living presence of God” in various forms.
But he added: “When the Lord shows us the way, who are we to say, ‘No, Lord, it is not prudent! No, let's do it this way’. Who are we to close doors?”
While Francis appears to have taken the argument to its logical extreme, this is not the first time that the Vatican has raised the prospect of baptising extra-terrestrial beings.
Speaking at the British Science Festival in 2010, one of then-Pope Benedict XVI’s astronomers said he would baptise an alien “if they asked”. While he accepted that the chances of ever getting such an opportunity were slim, Guy Consolmagno said: “Any entity – no matter how many tentacles it has – has a soul.”
After observing an amazing flotilla of assembling UFOs overhead, it appeared, beyond logic, that alien entities climbed down the ladder of my awe to cause paranormal experiences.
Inter dimensional 'bleed-throughs" happened regularly.
My energies, which I cannot yet 'ground', are light-beacons for negative-thought-entities of many ilks, tipping my scales more towards, "Who needs this paranormal inglorious chafing?" than ,"Wow, I sense the unseen!".
I now perceive E.T. and spirit hypersensitivity, as a form of a spiritual inter-dimensional allergy reaction.
Hypersensitivity, to spirits or aliens is like having an allergy to those beings, painfully aware, troubled, and inflamed, while others, are dully unaware.
I felt electric vibrations in bed and saw my body float out of my body, in astral abductions of my spiritual essence, which retained all of my predilections and discriminations, leaving my chop-meat-DNA- contrived- body, bereft of spirit, behind, in bed.
At first glance, I believed that I had died!
Out of body, I had conveyor belt travels sublime and terrifying, experiences directly tied to my previously monitored thoughts.
This is one recollection that illustrates how alien-proprietary- monitored-consciousness, is suffered by abductees:
I awakened slowly, and found myself underwater, in an experience more real in sensory totality, than just a vivid dream, yet another alien fingerprint silhouette, an imposed nighttime OBE, Out-of-Body-Experience.
Alien entities who after physical abductions, specialize in astral abductions, are predatory of our spiritual essences, essences that we as a race of beings, are barely aware of.
One's car is stopped on a lonely road and one ascends into an overhead waiting craft as one watches one's body in the car below recede from view.
But abductees rarely assess such contradictions, in their daily functioning concepts, of 'self'.
The spirit-entity 'self' that aliens abduct, tease away from our body to prey upon, retains personality and memory, and any injury to that energy causes mirror somatic injuries, later when body and spirit are reunited by alien contrivance.
As self-defense, by asserting and flexing one's spiritual prowess, one can use the same spiritual energy against them, that they seek to tamper with.
'Fighting fire-with-fire', mastering some metaphysics, can work to temporarily deter abductions, in the same way it can repel demons and negative-thought-entities of all ilks.
I have long corroborated with mystics,( Robert Bruce, "Astral Dynamics") who agree with my personal observation that white light surely feeds a meal of an energy lunch to dark force entities, and that's why they become quiescent, and that even prayer, as well as using white light, can make one an energy luncheon.
The more powerful a white light egg 'barrier', the more it attracts stronger negative-thought-entities, attracted to crave surmounting and overcoming such 'presented' challenges.
A barrier of visualized electric purple light, instead, has a frequency very disruptive to dark force entities/energies, but is a difficult color vibrational visualization to mentally sustain.
Electric blue, much easier to visualize, also has protective qualities of electric violet visualized around one.
Although most people are taught to use "white light", they are unaware of the inherent dangers and of these field tested psychic 'tools', which I herein, respectfully submit.
However, when I am asleep, I wander amongst beasties and monsters, and to date suffer poignant and vivid out-of-body-experiences, my defenses seemingly down.
In this experience, under twenty feet of water,
I was semi-conscious but aware; I could doze, float and breathe normally, all while immersed, under a shoal, deep under a narrow inlet.
As I floated, I slowly became dimly aware that visually, ten or fifteen gray ghosts,
torpedo shapes, which had hovered nearby, now swam closer, nearer than twenty feet away.
Porpoises, a school of thirty gray forms, hovered in the inlet's shoal, nearby!
I struggled to come to my still dull senses, and watched as large torpedo shapes swam closer and as they approached they radiated discernible and palpable curiosity.
A large school of inquisitive silver-gray porpoises came very close, now, some within five feet, for a better look at me, still half awake and floating .
The very instant that my mind asserted a greater awareness, in an attempt to seize upon my predicament, at that very moment, they started en-masse, startled away, as though privy to and threatened by my thoughts.
With quick tail movements, they all vanished into the water's distant murky gloom.
Slammed with a jolt, back into my body, awakened in bed, I suddenly recalled a thought-sentence that I had very often repeated in my writings: "In the spiritual ocean tidal currents between two and six o'clock, I have stumbled across only negative thought entities, nighttime bedroom intruders; I have sadly met predominately sharks, and not ever, enlightened porpoises.."
This experience underlined aliens' astral abductions, and their meddling psychic
omnipresence, a first class disorder of consciousness predation, a signature symptom of alien abductees..
This nighttime vivid OBE, Out-Of-Body-Experience, pointed to a proprietary alien creature with a too literal sense of my sentence's meaning, or perhaps, instead,one with a rarefied sense of humor.
Le rover de la Nasa va entamer une nouvelle étape de sa mission d'exploration de la planète rouge.
AEOLIS MONS. Culminant à 5500 mètres d'altitude, au cœur du cratère Gale, le mont Sharp ou Aeolis Mons était un objectif important du rover Curiosity de la Nasa qui explore la planète Mars depuis 2012. "Curiosity va maintenant commencer un nouveau chapitre" se réjouit Jim Green de la Nasa. Il aura fallu au rover près de deux ans pour franchir les neuf kilomètres qui le séparaient de ce relief impressionnant.
Dernière étape avant la relève
Curiosity est actuellement positionné au pied du mont Sharp, à sa base sud, sur une zone appelée affleurement de Pahrump Hills. C'est par cette voie que le rover commencera sont étude de la montagne. La trajectoire diffère quelque peu de celle initialement prévue mais les contrôleurs de la mission ont dû prendre un raccourci pour ménager le rover et ses roues sur lesquelles des signes d'usure prématurée sont apparus.

Le mont Sharp constitue la destination finale de Curiosity qui va "mener des recherches scientifiques sur chaque strate de la montagne avec des forages pour prélever des échantillons», relate Jennifer Tropser, une des directrices du projet.
CURIOSITY 2. De nombreux résultats seront donc encore attendus des investigations de Curiosity. C'est un autre rover, construit sur le même châssis à six roues que son prédécesseur qui poursuivra l'aventure et tentera de trouver des traces d'une vie antérieure sur Mars. Baptisé pour le moment Mars 2020 Rover, il devrait être lancé en 2020 et atteindre son objectif en 2021.

Le rover embarquera des instruments optiques très précis, dont un microscope, qui associé à d'autres technologies lui permettra de choisir très précisément des échantillons particulièrement intéressants, de les analyser et de les stocker dans une petite capsule. Elle pourra être récupérée et ramenée su Terre lors d'une mission suivante, dont les modalités ne sont pas encore définies.
UFO historians and researchers have always pointed out time periods or years in which encounters seem to increase in overwhelming numbers, they have labeled these time periods as ‘Waves’. The summer of 1947 is considered the first modern UFO wave in history (mostly in the United States). Other notable waves were in 1952 (basically the whole year and again concentrated in the USA). There were minor waves after that with concentrations worldwide, then came the summer of 1965 in which a worldwide wave was recorded, starting in South America, this incredible wave continued throughout 1966 and well into 1967, the next notable wave, acknowledge by those UFO historians and researchers is of course the fall 1973 (starting in the USA, mainly the southern states). One year which has been mostly ignored as a wave year or a period of intense activity was of course 1968, which included Argentina, Spain, France, Australia, New Zealand, and of course my main focus of attention in this article Canada (specifically the Province of Quebec). Encounters with strange entities were numerous and steady and mostly ignored by non-Canadian researchers. Following is a summary of known entity or humanoid encounters in Canada for the year 1968.
Our next case is brief in details and is from Ontario, the activity begins to pick up.
12. Location: Wooler Ontario Canada Date: July 2 1968
Time: 2200 Several witnesses see a bright object land on some nearby brush. Later several shadowy beings enter nearby homes and take several items. No other information.

Next the activity in Quebec starts in earnest, the next two cases occurred on the same date in Quebec.
13. Location: St. Alexis de Montcalm Quebec Canada Date: July 2 1968
Time: 2114 A woman saw a green object shaped like a hat or mushroom, which passed at the height of the window. She believed she saw in it up to 20 small men, all of green color, with rather pointed noses, resembling sculptures in the African Pavilion at the Montreal Expo.
Humcat 1968-85 Source: Saucers, Space & Science Type: A
14. Location: St. Thomas Quebec Canada Date: July 2 1968
Time: 2130 Constable M. Michaud and another police officer were reported to have seen two naked little men run through a drainage ditch and flee. Reports had the “little men” disappearing as they were about to be apprehended. Some reports had them as only two feet high, with shoulders the size of adults and disproportionately large heads. The appearance of a large meteor at the time merely complicated matters.

The next two cases were also from Quebec and on the same date, both unfortunately with very brief details, but interesting nonetheless:
15. Location: St. Bruno Quebec Canada Date: July 22 1968
Time: evening Six young girls, ages 7 to 13, reportedly saw a figure they described as “The Virgin Mary.” The apparition appeared before them hovering in the air; four of the girls merely saw the figure, whereas two, heard a voice they described as “soft and slow.” It advised them to pray and promised to return in October 7.

The above case appears to have been what is called a “Marian” apparition or The Holy Virgin Mary, which seems to indicate that different type of phenomena due seem to occur at the same time in the same area.
16. Location: St. Basile Quebec Canada Date: July 22 1968
Time: evening A boy reported seeing a man like figure that was apparently airborne and “seemed to be walking in the sky, without any visible means of propulsion.” No other information.

Quebec seemed to be the focus of events in the late summer with the following three cases occurring in Quebec within days of each other:
17. Location: Riviere Du Loup Quebec Canada Date: July 26 1968
Time: 1500 Two young boys riding their bicycles near the airport stopped by the hangar and sighted a short three-foot tall gray skinned humanoid. The humanoid ran away joined by a second similar being, both moved in stiff movements. No other information.

Was the above case an early encounter with the “Grays”?
18. Location: St. Stanislas De Kostka Quebec Canada Date: July 28 1968
Time: 2100 Five young people, including Paul Sauve, 20, and his sisters, Nicole, and Joanne, and Regent Leger and his brother Dennis, saw two circular objects with brilliant red halos, one of which was seen to land about 1000 ft away. They went out with a flashlight to investigate and encountered a being, 50 ft away that terrified them so that they ran back to the house. It was about 4 ft tall, had a big head ‘imbedded in the shoulders” without a neck, and large round eyes, a flat nose, and having a black or brown skin that was “wrinkled, scabby, with bumps.” When caught in the flashlight beam, it lifted a hand, which was very large, black, and rough, “like the skin of a toad,” and opened and closed its mouth. Then it backed off toward the barn. After they were back in the house, it came up to a window and knocked on the pane, making a “mooing” sound “like a cow.” Later they saw the object take off vertically. A 15-foot circle of crushed grain was found at the landing site.

19. Location: Upton Quebec Canada Date: July 28 1968
Time: near midnight A man, his wife, and two children were awakened by the barking of their dog. When he arose to investigate, he saw a sparkling, rotating “cloud” in the yard. It flew just over him and went to a nearby field. About 12ft in diameter, it was dark on the bottom, but luminous on top. The cows in the field were being chased by 4 or 5 small entities, perhaps 3 ft tall with heads shaped like bottles. As the UFO flew above them, they disappeared. The cattle seemed ill for weeks afterwards.

We next jump forward to August, to Ontario to be exact with a strange poorly documented contact yarn:
20. Location: Near Toronto Ontario Canada Date: August 1968
Time: unknown A man was walking near the downtown area when a car pulled up to him and two men inside asked him to come in for a ride. He was taken to the countryside to a landed disc shaped object. Five men wearing dark brown uniforms invited the witness inside. He was told that the captain of their ship was a female, which the witness did not see. He was also given information on the craft’s propulsion system.
HC addition # 313 Source: Robert E. Bartholomew, UFO Lore
We visit British Columbia next with another bizarre contact/encounter claim, much better documented than the one from Ontario:
21 Location: Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada Date: August 1968
Time: late afternoon The main witness (involved in other encounters) and some friends where playing with bb-guns on the grounds of the Shaugnessy Golf course when they saw a small metallic “flying saucer” on the ground. The main witness went up to it, to show off to his friends and actually played “bongos” on it. The object was as big as a VW beetle (but round). He then walked to one side to get a better view of the silver object and saw a small “non-human man” next to it. The figure was very pale, almost blue in color and was wearing a white suit with a blue sash around his waist and looked like “the man from the Glad television commercials”. The witness said, “My name is Kim” and put his right hand on his heart. The creature responded by holding his palms upward and made a sound, but he didn’t seem to “have a tongue”. At one point he put out his right arm and nodded for the witness to do the same thing with his left, and he was allowed to compare his hand with the alien’s and except for the pallor they were very similar. At this point he heard a voice in his head that spoke the words, “Would you like to pray”? And he bowed and put his arms pointing down with palms towards the witness. He was a bit embarrassed and to get a laugh from his friends who were literally “stunned” he made a gesture towards this BB gun in his right pocket. The alien seemed to sense this and the witness had to apologize for this and explained that it was only a bb-gun and was not real, the alien seemed to understand. The witness said a few more things and then waved at the alien and the alien waved back. The witness then rejoined his friends and they left the area.

Many of the reports were investigated by local well-balanced and intelligent men such as Marc LeDuc, Donald Cyr, Henri Bordeleau, Jean Ferguson, etc. You be the judge. I contend that the above cases were part of the much larger and mostly ignored UFO/humanoid wave of 1968.
AMAZING PHOTO OF THREE UFO CRAFT OVER CANADA AUGUST 10, 2014 …. OSHAWA ONTARIO CANADA
On Sunday August 10, 2014, while at home in Oshawa, Ontario, I was outside on my driveway washing my car when suddenly I hear this humming sound and look to the north below HWY 2. About a quarter mile north of my position and some thousands of feet up I see three bright red ruby lights maintaining in a triangle formation. Being in a state of awe watching them moving across from the east to west, maybe 30 seconds passed. I then ran into the house for my camera; being once again outside in about 20 seconds. Started to film this spectacle and watch the direction of these three lights at 9:20 pm. I watched them pass over Whitby heading towards Ajax. The lights appeared to turn to the southwest heading to southern Ajax. I snapped one last picture at the greatest distance away. The last picture reveals a structure between the three lights. After a couple of days I noticed on the net of reports in Oshawa/Whitby /Ajax/Toronto /Burlington, Ontario. It would appear many folks had witnessed this marvel along this flight path this triangle of lights had taken probably due to the time not being too late. What is also interesting is that it started in Oshawa. No further reports came out ‘east of Oshawa.’ Very bizarre and shocking sighting to witness. I assume by the size that would be one to two hundred yards apart in spread of the lights. It is also interesting to note this occurred during a full moon cycle. Photos taken with Canon PowerShot SX260 HS.
McNeal, AZ – unedited: On 9/9/2014 At 9:08pm My mom and i were in our barn feeding the horses for the night. i was out back closing gates when i heard a rumbling. like what you hear when a jet is flying over. Iv heard that a hundred times. there was a full moon rising in the east about 3 or 4 fingers above the horizon and a very clear night. i looked up to the west to where i heard the plane and saw red lights moving SE. but it was strange. it had 5 lights in a boomerang pattern. one on the nose and two more on each side. if it was a plane it was the biggest plane iv ever seen. it was really high up too. but iv seen airliners around that same height and it was 5 times bigger than those. There were two jet fighters tailing slightly behind the tips of its wings. i knew they were separate aircraft because they moved independently from the red lights which stayed together and they were not red but more like white/ yellow in color. as the object and jets passed over i could see the jets had blinking aircraft lights. like you see on all aircraft. i kept watching for a few more minutes until the lights faded(by the glare of the moon) to the SE. i went back to the barn and told my mother what i had seen. A few minutes after that at 920PM i saw 2 jet fighters returning from the same direction going NW. They were no longer escorting anything and had their afterburners on. they were going much faster than when i had previously seen them. – MUFON CMS
NASA research gives guideline for future alien life search
Researchers at NASA’s Virtual Planetary Laboratory have been successful in accurately simulating the atmospheric chemistry of extrasolar planets in an effort to better understand the chemical compositions that would indicate the presence of life.
Now thanks to these findings they have been able to reveal the best way to determine whether or not the presence of a gas such as methane means that a planet could have life on it.
“When we ran these calculations, we found that in some cases, there was a significant amount of ozone that built up in the atmosphere, despite there not being any oxygen flowing into the atmosphere,” said NASA’s Shawn Domagal-Goldman.
“This has important implications for our future plans to look for life beyond Earth.”
The researchers concluded that it isn’t enough to rely on the detection of just one key gas in the atmosphere of an extrasolar planet as there are too many non-biological processes that could give rise to them. Instead, they argue, to identify a planet as a potential habitat for life there need to be indications of at least two of these gases present in its atmosphere.
“Our research strengthens the argument that methane and oxygen together, or methane and ozone together, are still strong signatures of life,” said Domagal-Goldman. Read more at Phys.org
On Diversey and Hermitage Avenue in Chicago’s Lakeview neighborhood is an industrial building that was converted to condominiums in the 1990s. Though this building is nondescript today, it was the site of a grisly murder at the end of the 19th century.
Adolph Luetgert was a tanner and butcher who moved from Germany in the early 1870s. Shortly after his first wife died, Luetgert married Louise Bicknese in 1878, a woman who was ten years his junior. On their wedding day, he gave Louise a gold ring inscribed with her new initials, L.L.
Luetgert opened a small sausage company in 1879 that became successful. In 1897, he opened the A.L. Sausage & Packing Company in a five-story plant on the southwest corner of Diversey and Hermitage. Next door to the sausage works, Luetgert built a three-story family home for Louise and their two sons, Elmer and Louis.
Unfortunately, Adolph and Louise’s marriage was not a happy one, and the world was about to find out what kind of monster lay inside Adolph Luetgert.
Adolph and Louise went on a walk on the evening of May 1, 1897 — this was the last time anyone saw Louise alive. On May 7th, Adolph reported his wife missing, but her family suspected foul play. Police questioned relatives and friends and searched the city for Louise Luetgert or her remains.
During a search of Luetgert’s factory on May 15th, a watchman suggested they look in a steam vat in the cellar that was used to dip sausages. The police looked inside, and found that the vat was filled halfway with a putrid-smelling, reddish-brown liquid. When the police pulled a plug near the bottom of the vat, on the outside, the slimy liquid and small pieces of bone fell out. Inside the cauldron, police found a gold ring with L.L. engraved on the inside. Near the vat, investigators discovered a strand of hair, pieces of clothing, and half of a false tooth.
After police questioned some employees, investigators learned Luetgert had workers dump the ashes from the smokehouse. When they examined the areas the factory workers indicated, investigators found more bone and pieces of burned corset steel.
Luetgert was arrested shortly after these discoveries, and was tried for Louise’s murder. The trial became a media sensation that drew reporters from thousands of miles away. Continue reading at Atlas Obscura

UFO and government secrecy researcher John Greenewald has been petitioning to get the National Security Agency (NSA) UFO files that were released in the 90s further declassified. When they were released, after a legal battle, much of the information was redacted. There are large swaths of information that have been blacked out or covered with white out. However, the NSA recently told Greenewald they could not find even one original of the hundreds of pages UFO files.
Greenewald received this information in response to a request for a Mandatory Declassification Review (MDR) of the NSA’s UFO files. MDRs require that the agency re-review previously released redacted files to unredact information that is now declassified. This is a similar process that was used to reveal the name of Area 51 in CIA documents last year.
The MDR was fulfilled for an affidavit related to the lawsuit asking the NSA to release its UFO files in 1980, called the Yeates affidavit. As for the rest, the NSA writes, “With the exception of the enclosed document, we cannot locate unredacted copies or the original documents that were previously reviewed and released to the public.”
In the late 70s, the Citizens Against UFO Secrecy (CAUS), headed by lawyer Peter Gersten, sought to get UFO files from several government agencies released using the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). The NSA refused to release their files, so CAUS sued.
The NSA had a large amount of UFO files, not necessarily because they were investigating UFOs, but because they monitor communications worldwide as part of their regular duties. These files are called communications intelligence (COMINT). Among this large amount of data, there were hundreds of files referring to UFOs. However, the NSA felt they should remain classified.
In 1980, Eugene F. Yeates, chief of the Office of Policy for the NSA, submitted a 21 page document to the judge overseeing the case, Federal Judge Gerhart A. Gesell, as to why these files should remain classified. This is the Yeates affidavit. However, this document was also classified.
Although Gesell did not have the clearance to read the documents in question, the Yeates affidavit convinced him that the NSA files should stay classified. He wrote, “The public interest in disclosure is far outweighed by the sensitive nature of the materials and the obvious effect on national security their release may well entail.”
When the Yeates affidavit was released, it was heavily redacted. UFO researcher Stanton Friedman shows a page from the document to demonstrate government UFO secrecy, and as he says, this goes over well on television where a simple image can be very effective when making a point.

Eventually, in 1997, due to laws making it more difficult to keep files over 25 years old classified, the NSA released a less redacted Yeates affidavit, and 156 UFO documents. As Friedman puts it, the affidavit was originally about 75% blacked out, the second version was only about 20% blacked out. However, the UFO documents are heavily redacted.
The NSA must have seen Friedman’s talks or television interviews, because instead of mostly blacking out the text, this time they largely whited it out, making it much less visually poignant.

As you can see from the image above, there is very little information available in the COMINT UFO documents. Although a bit more information has been unredacted from the Yeates affidavit, the unredacted COMINT reports are the most important information for UFO researchers.
Greenewald writes, “In essence, the ‘originals’ were destroyed or lost when they blacked out the records many years ago — and now in 2014 — they are missing and can not be further reviewed for declassification and release. The history, whatever it may be, is lost forever.”
What the NSA has released can be found on their UFO page. You can download Greenewald’s FOIA request on his GovernmentSecrets.com website.
A new sci-fi film attempts to depict the horror of alien abductions.
The latest offering from filmmaking duo the Vicious Brothers, Extraterrestrial, “tells the story of a group of friends who take a weekend away to a woodland cabin – where they discover a crashed alien spacecraft,” describes MoviePilot. “The experience is just the beginning of a series of horrific extraterrestrial activity.”
(Credit IFC Midnight )
Entertainment Weekly details that the film stars Brittany Allen (The Rocker), Freddie Stroma (the Harry Potter franchise), Jesse Moss (Tucker & Dale vs. Evil), Anja Savcic (I Love You, Beth Cooper), Melanie Papalia (Smiley), and Gil Bellows (The Shawshank Redemption, Ally McBeal). The film was directed by Colin Minihan, one half of the Vicious Brothers.
The recently released trailer reveals some overt nods to Fire in the Sky. But, in addition to the horror movie stereotype of terrible things happening to kids at a cabin in the woods, the movie also includes a UFO stereotype of a crazy guy, played by Michael Ironside, who knows all about the government’s secret treaty with extraterrestrials. The film’s poster also employs the use of the cliche notion of anal probing as part of its marketing.
This movie premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival in April 2014, and IFC Midnight has since acquired the rights to the film.
Extraterrestrial will debut on VOD on October 17, and it arrives in select theaters on November 21.
“All truth passes through three (3) stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.” Arthur Schopenhauer”
Within a blackness, a voice, intoning, resonant and deep, over and over and over:
“What a beautiful child, such a lovely child.”
“What a lovely child, such a beautiful child.”
Over and over and over, again.
Suddenly,
I am drawn to a parade.
Moving swiftly forward, striding, I can see the popcorn strewn sidewalk beneath my feet and I can smell cotton candy cloying sweetness wafting in the breeze.
Just ahead, an excited blare of trumpets, a murmur of deeply lined crowds and a growing but yet still distant tattoo of drums, combine to urge and propel me forward.
I am holding hands, pulling along two children,one in each hand, as I rush forward, expectantly eager,
with an urgency that these two very small children experience the brassy, colorful thrill, of a parade.
In my right hand is the palm of a human child, perhaps five years old, a child wiry and muscular with blond hair and bluest eyes, a robust human child.
In my other hand, I grasp a small, withered hand, one of an odd looking, frail, non-human child, with black almond-shaped eyes and very long, skinny arms and legs, a sickly, tubular creature-child, who struggles but who can't keep up.
I sweep this odd child up onto my shoulders to let it see ahead and to carry it ; I feel its joy as a strong psychic wave..
I look again, curious and more critical.
It is a handicapped, ailing entity, sadly listless and lifeless.
A facsimile look alike of the cartoon character, Gumby,
its long grey arms and legs seem useless appendages, a long tubular shaped Gumby child, listless, ill and with no vitality.
I stare in amazement, clearly disgusted.
The scene changes, as does the perspective.
I am now looking down at this same grey tubular, now diapered child, laying on a bed.
I hear that same deep resonant voice repeatedly suggest that I change its diaper.
I was never an eager changer of diapers with my own babies, choosing sometimes to neglectfully leave a fully ripe and pungent baby for their mother to change.
I recoiled at the suggestion to nurture and care for it by changing its dirty diaper..
Both the creature and its toilet needs repulsed me, as I examined it more closely.
I awakened in bed, aware that the word, “dreams”, used to describe abduction's surreal otherworldly-ness, is an impotent word, in our language,
a problem with our language's inability to describe the alien astral experience in any other way.
“What a beautiful child!”, as a phrase, is recalled by tens of thousands of abductees the world over, a phrase in an alien scripted scenario, in attempts to have offspring reunited with their somatic abductee parents for nurturing.
A painful thought arouses a dawning idea, that the ethereal, astral child is possibly of my spirit, blood and flesh.
And that's what abductions are all about, creating offspring, blending two very different species of beings, us and them, with many variations, farmed throughout the Universe, as a product, as we treat animals, in the same way, as we practice animal husbandry.
Abductions prevail and we are Manchurian candidates of stellar proportions.
Often abductions involve other unintended side effects.
Mass abductions, the taking of many people in an area at the same time, involves folding time and space, in a manner beyond belief, so that no time missed is noticed by abductees.
Time is a quaint variable, like gravity, both of which aliens have exploited in ways that we can only faintly imagine.
When UFO craft suddenly wink out, vanish and then reappear, in the exact same spot, they have actually traveled in time and returned.
I have decided not to awaken with nightmares and recollections of non-human creatures, and not to ever look up at the sky, to see craft.
I refuse to acknowledge this apparent lifetime's kidnapping and theft agreement, with aliens, on a spiritual level, as this particular personality of mine has been purposely made aware of these intrusions and as such, I believe that these experiences reflect a clear violation of spiritual rights, in their continuing.
I have dragged my feet and refused cooperation.
They changed tactics and redoubled their efforts.
I , through effective prayer, enlisted spiritual help from the same dimension that they use to enter our physical one, and they lent demons into the equation as spite work, and to muddle the picture.
I program myself to be more lucid in dreamstate, that I will remember, and then vague and vivid snippets remain which I can unfurl at leisure, by worrying the edges of the snippet, just before, and just after.
That focus works to open remembrances, for me..
What happened just before and just after the recalled snippet of memory will intrude slowly, until a fuller grasp entails.
They are careful to give me vivid realistic screen memories, imposed images that mask actual events, onboard craft, screen memories, dreamlike in nature.
Sometimes, not a moment elapses between sleep and awakening, when they wrap me in general blackness, so that I awake with nosebleeds, scoop marks and exhaustion, but without vivid remnants, to recall.
The screen memories are aligned with negative thoughts, scenarios imposed, by virtue of their worst scenario plots and their vividness.
They are masters of delusions and can have one dreaming a snug little dream, cocooned on a short psychic leash, while they march one around their craft for various purposes, and most abductees, the world over, are none the wiser.
Those abductees who recall anything whatsoever are rare and far inbetween.
I resent and frustrate their entrances, approaches and goals when I resist and their tempers ill befit the advanced technology that they have.
Since they primarily wait until one is in REM sleep, lucid dreaming works well to detect and interact with them and is worth all the trouble it takes to master techniques of lucid dreaming.
It is hard to imagine the planetary human hardships and brutal dilemmas in human history, likely orchestrated by these alien puppet masters.
I program myself subliminally to repeat: “I will no longer participate in these alien endeavors”, to find in sleep that I am shaken forcibly by a dark demonic entity as strong as a bull, who says,” You will do as you're TOLD!”
Prayer works, like a pesticide, only if it is effective and is repetitious.
While none of the standard appeals to saints and to Jesus works, repeating the word, ” GOD”, over and over, can set up a different vibration level that could instantly end an astral abduction, if one only had the presence of mind.
That's where lucid dreaming comes in.
One of Heaven's most engaged, Archangel St. Michael gives support in our battles against intrusive UFO evil to bring immediate temporary respite.
We are not alone or simply watched with benign neglect, by Heaven.
Never fear, as they feed ethereally from fears, but Love them away, and they'll be puzzled enough to sit down and think things over, before they come again.
Creeping anxiety is the signature symptom of their unseen psychic intrusion, and if you feel that fear building, they're already peeking inside.
Panic attacks, are the soul's reaction to any ( demonic or alien, ) intrusions into the human psyche.
Treat the creepy anxiety as though it were an unwanted burglar, and order it away in the name of God.
You'll see that the feeling abates instantly, as they initially back off but like yellow jacket wasps at at a picnic cola, they unerringly try again, over and over.
Fighting them is a 24 hour 365 day job.
Why are we so helpless, in sleep?
During abductions, the human brain is somehow detached from the front of the brain, where one's shoe can hang before one's eyes but one cant discern just precisely what it is.
That's what looking out of the craft's window, and seeing the Earth, the Moon, nebulae and stars was like, precisely stated, for me.
The perspective was waking to find that I was asleep, wrapped in delusional thoughts and scenes.
I became suddenly lucid, awoke onboard from a trance, and discovered a host of others, during a mass abduction, on short, psychic, surreal leashes of psychic control, while we were manipulated around a large craft for various purposes.
The psychic nature of these entities is most uncannily canny, and most who experience an abduction, will not recall being inside an alien craft , and will dismiss any vivid flashbacks, as dreams.
My only clue, was awakening with the joy of recalling a dream about an intricate gorgeous wood inlayed staircase that had brought me a sweet rapture.
Unfurling backwards, and forwards the events around that joy, at an ornate wood staircase revealed that my 'rapture', had been an alien telepathic ploy
to erase my joyous memory , to cloud my recollections of my genuine awe, in seeing the Earth, the Moon, stars and purple nebulae, stunningly, in the blackest space, interspersed with tiny red and white stars, outside that craft's window.
By making a simple metal staircase turn into a lushy built wood inlay, by making the staircase the unrightful recipient of a powerfully imposed 'awe', and 'rapture', by turning the delusion's volume up too dramatically, a mind controlling screen memory failed, and ultimately backfired for the controlling, mind reading entity who had imposed it!
Abductions and their remnant elusive memories have opened all this for Paul, a confirmed atheist, UNTIL Paul saw aliens float him out of his body, in his bed, at night.
Then, he knew that they were interested in an essence that he never suspected that he had, a nonphysical soul.
Our spiritual powers that interest and addict interdimensionals are the very powers that can be used to thwart further attacks.
They infect auras with attachments to themselves and ride the reincarnation roller coaster with human beings, as a sanctuary, to avoid the death that they fear and to steal the spiritual recycling that we have.
Souls are garnered, detoured from our natural spiritual evolution in Heaven.
These joyriding grays can be sinister, discorporate alien souls, stuck to our energies, who bring a new meaning to the concept of a silent invasion.
A high school student witnesses a brass colored disc over Lake Erie but it would be 57 years before we would know the depth of his sighting.
On the afternoon of September 20th 1957 in Buffalo, NY a Northbound Niagara Street bus had just dropped Steven at this corner on his way home from high school. As he started to walk the short block to his house on Prospect, something blinking caught his attention.
“My first fleeting thought was a yellow Piper Cub airplane.”
Steven looked up to see a brass colored disc. The light atop was rapidly blinking red, green and white; the disc hovered silently, completely motionless.
Try as he could, Steven could not discern any windows, markings or seams on the craft. He says the brightness of the object made it impossible to make out any detail on the superstructure of the object.
He says the brass colored disc was hovering slightly north, and higher than the Peace Bridge high tension power lines, and was perhaps 800 feet above the water.
“My immediate impulse was to run home to get my father but I was mesmerized, staring, and found myself walking toward it.”
Steven suddenly became aware of the sound of jet aircraft approaching from the north. He says that the roar of their engines started to hurt his ears as they came closer. The two F-86 fighters, came so close to Steven’s position he could see the pilots. As the jets came closer to where the disc was hovering, the disc took off.
“It was so fast it blurred and streaking out over Lake Erie. Any sound it made accelerating was drowned out by the roar of the jets.”
He describes the brief chase scene, “For a few moments all three aircraft were in view the disc appeared to be about half again as big as the jets.” Afterwards the disc was simply gone.
Steven tells us that the following day a brief article about “mysterious” lights over Lake Erie was published on an inside page of the Buffalo Evening News. He says there was a quote from the Niagara Falls Air Force base, which denied both radar contact and scrambled aircraft.
In September 1998, some UFO researchers found a CIA memorandum located in a 1979 microfiche set of Declassified Documents. This document is particularly interesting because it points out the follow about the sighting.
• It mentions interest in UFOs at a very high level of the intelligence community, the Intelligence Advisory Committee (IAC)
• It mentions what is possibly electromagnetic interference with multiple radars coincident with detection of a UFO
• It mentions action by elements of the military and intelligence communities very quickly after a UFO report.
What Steven and the general public did not know about the September 20th was the following.
Components of the US Air Defense command tracked on US radars the UFO in question. It was tracked on a straight course from the eastern tip of Long Island to the vicinity of Buffalo, NY. The UFO was reported to have been tracked at an altitude of 50,000 feet traveling at 2000 kts. (2300mph).
The report goes on to say that multiple US radar stations tracking the UFO were jammed and that there were brief gaps in the tracking. The report goes to great lengths to discount any possibility that this was any kind of technology from the Soviet Union at the time.
“We conclude, therefore, that it is highly improbable that a Soviet operation is responsible for the UFO reports of 20 September.”
The report deferred any final conclusions on the incident until a full investigation of all the data could be conducted.
Mystery is always something that people enjoy. Everyone and anyone feels like they could come up with their own assumptions or theories of how, what or when something happened, and it could not be proven whether it is wrong or right. The following 10 photos and videos have experts completely baffled, leaving no definitive explanation in their wake. Find out the stories and conspiracies behind them.
10. Does The Babushka Lady Have Evidence To JFK’s Assassination?
via coolinterestingstuff.com
Many mysteries still cloud the 1963 assassination of John F. Kennedy. One of them is the Babushka Lady, a nickname that was given to an unidentified woman who was repeatedly recorded at the scene of the shooting, using a video recorder. Police tried tracking down the woman, in hopes that her footage would reveal clues that could help with the investigation, but to this day, she has never been identified.
A woman named Beverly Oliver came forward in 1970, claiming to be the Babushka Lady. She said that either FBI or Special Agents had tracked her down years prior and requested to develop the film she had taken at the scene of the crime, which she handed over. They then vanished, and she never heard from them again. Oliver’s claims have been highly discredited due to various inconsistencies with her story, mainly the fact that she was 17 years old at the time, when the photos seem to show a middle-aged woman, and her inability to correctly identify the model of the camera she was known to be using. In 1994, Oliver wrote a book chronicling her memories of Dallas the day of the shooting, entitled, Nightmare In Dallas. Oliver was also the basis for a scene in John Oliver’s film, JFK.
The identity of the Babushka Lady still remains unsolved.
9. Hessdalen Lights: Alien Or Natural Battery?
via disclose.tv
The Hessdalen Lights are a spectacular, but unexplained light show, that can be seen various times throughout the year in the skies over Norway. The lights were most active from 1981 through 1984, when people traveled from all over the world to camp out and see the lights which were said to be visible 15-20 times per week. These days, the sightings are down to about 15-20 times a year.
A scientific explanation for these lights remains unproven, leading many to hypothesize that they are caused by alien spacecraft. Other sightings including headlights, mirages, astronomical bodies and aircraft have been noted.
However, as of May 2014, some scientists think they might have uncovered the mystery. The hypothesis is that the metallic rock inside the mountains, combined with the heavy amounts of sulfur in the river, have created a battery. When ionized gas is created from the fumes, the lights become visible. This theory is still not proven, though, and the mystery continues.
8. The Mystery Of The Hook Island Sea Monster
via scienceblogs.com
If these photos of the Hook Island Sea Monster were taken present day, they would largely be accused of Photoshop. However, they were taken on December 12, 1964 and have been widely circulated since then. And, in case you’ve forgotten, there was no Photoshop in 1964.
Robert Le Serrec and his wife were off the coast of Stonehaven Bay in Hook Island, Queensland. When his wife spotted the alarming mass on the lagoon floor, they took several photos while trying to identify it. They are reported as saying it looked like a giant tadpole-like creature, with an estimated length of 75-80 feet long. The assumed creature didn’t move and the couple thought it might be dead, so they approached it in hopes of gaining recorded footage of it. But when the creature began moving and opened its mouth, they hurried back to their boat in which time, the creature swam away.
7. The Solway Firth Spaceman Mystery
via spacemancentral.com
When Jim Templeton took photos of his wife and daughter on a sunny day in Cumbria, England, during the summer of 1964, he didn’t know he would soon become a permanent debate among conspiracy theorists and UFO believers. But that’s what happened when he had his film developed and noticed, what appears to be a man in a space suit, standing behind his daughter. Templeton said that he did not notice anyone other than his wife and daughter at the time of shooting. When he took the photos to the police, they gave it back to him and said there was nothing suspicious about it. But when his local newspaper picked it up an hour later, it was soon circulating worldwide.
Many people have debunked this photo by saying that, what appears to be a spaceman is nothing more than the girl’s mother standing farther up the hill behind her, washed out by an optical illusion of light and shadows. Others firmly stand by the claim that it is a spaceman, with legends of a missile launch that was set to take place in the same area, that was abruptly aborted because of sightings of two men in white spacesuits that match the description of the figure in the Templeton’s photo.
6. The S.S. Watertown Phantom Faces
via fourteantimes.com
James Courtney and Michael Meehan were cleaning a cargo tank on the S.S. Watertown on its way to New York City, in 1924. The men were overcome with gas fumes and died. As customary of the time, the two men were buried at sea. But for days following their sea burial, the reflections of the two men’s faces were seen in the water. The faces were so clear, Captain Keith Tracy followed orders to get a photograph of the two phantoms, which he did.
5. Is There An Alien Satellite Orbitting Earth?
via abovetopsecret.com
Could there possibly be a satellite that has been orbiting earth for the past 13,000 years, that was put there by aliens? If you believe the Black Knight conspiracies, then the answer is yes. Some have tied it to the “long delayed echoes” and a radio signal that Nikola Tesla picked up in 1899, which he believed to be coming from outer space. The rumors of it being a satellite originated in the 1950s, when newspaper stories were published, attributing UFO researcher Donald Keyhoe, to claims that the U.S. Air Force had reported finding two satellites orbiting the Earth when none had been launched from Earth at that point.
4. The Cooper Family’s Unwanted Dinner Guest
via ebaumsworld.com
Legend has it, when the Cooper family (shown in the photo) moved into their new house, this was the first photo that was taken. When the picture was developed, the image of a body falling from the ceiling was clearly visible. Further investigation on this story yields no more information on this story, though, leading many to believe that it’s just some sort of image trickery or hoax. The origins of the photo and when they first surfaced are unclear.
3. Are There Pyramids On The Dark Side Of The Moon?
via hilalhuda.blogspot.com
What exactly is lurking up there on the dark side of the moon? If you believe the moon skeptics, there’s a whole lot more than NASA ever let on, and this photo proves it. Taken by Apollo 17 during the last flight to the moon, this photo was listed as blank in the photographic index. While it definitely is washed out by exposure and noise problems, there does seem to be a formation, not unlike a mountain or a pyramid. Some believe that there are great pyramids, as well as castles on the moon and that NASA has been covering it up all along, but that this photo slipped through the cracks and reveals the truth to what they’ve known all along.
2. Goddard’s Squadron Photograph Of Freddy Jackson
via coolinterestingstuff.com
In 1919, Freddy Jackson was accidentally killed by an airplane propeller while working as an air mechanic in the squadron of Sir Victor Goddard. Two days later, the squadron took a photo together – but when Goddard had it developed, he noticed something, the impossible – Freddy Jackson was in the photo. When he showed it to his crew, the men agreed that it was indeed, Jackson, despite the fact that he had died two days prior to the photo being taken, and that the group photo was held on the same day as Jackson’s funeral. It is believed that Jackson’s spirit was unaware of his death and showed up to have his picture taken as scheduled.
1. The Mysterious Death Of Elisa Lam
via:www.businessinsider.com
Elisa Lam was a 21 year old student staying at the Hotel Cecil in Los Angeles, when she went missing in January 2013. Her body was found contaminating the water two weeks later in the hotel’s water tank by the maintenance man. Lam reportedly suffered from bipolar disorder. At first glance, this story could be chalked up to a freak accident. However, there are many very notable and extremely strange coincidences surrounding her death.
The first bit of evidence is the bizarre video, and last known sighting of Lam. Getting onto an elevator, Lam proceeds to push numerous floor buttons but the elevator doors do not close. Then she begins to seem as though she is hiding in the corner from something passing by, but nothing shows on the video. Then she gets out of the elevator, looks around erratically, back into the elevator again and back out – all while the doors have never budged. Minutes go by, as her strange behavior continues and after Lam vanishes from sight, the elevator doors close, re-open, close again, and proceed to the next floor.
Those who don’t believe her death was an accident are also very quick to point out that two serial killers have stayed in the Cecil hotel, where there has also been a murder on premises and three reported suicides, making this a “murder hotel.” Other strange coincidences include a test for a tuberculosis outbreak that had occurred a few blocks from the hotel, which was called the LAM-ELISA. No one has been able to explain how Lam was able to get onto the roof, which was barricaded at the time. And then there’s the fact that someone updated her blog, six months after her death.
Needless to say, Hollywood snatched this story up immediately and announced early 2014, that a film based on Lam’s most mysterious death would be released in 2015.

Mysterious, unidentified red blob washes up on the beach. What can this be? It has no limbs, no eyes or mouth but has ribbing. According to the World News&EveryThing AbouT Life channel says, The creature was spotted by a local woman and she wrapped it in a tea towel, took it home and put it in salty water.
In Florida, a woman records mysterious fast moving blue lights in her home. The objects have mass are invisible to the human eye and can only be seen on her cell phone. Here’s the footage and an analysis of this strange phenomenon.
We’ve talked to some paranormal investigators with Kahuna Research Group about this and they can’t quite explain the footage or phenomenon either.
“Orbs are one of the most controversial aspects of paranormal research.”” reports Zach Royer, Certified Paranormal Investigator and AA Newsroom contributor, “but this definitely deservers a closer look.”
In 1994, a similar phenomenon was discovered by Jose Escamilla while trying to film a UFO in Roswell, New Mexico.
The “air rods”, as researchers later referred to the oddity, are highly controversial as many believe there is proof that they are just flying insects traveling at high speed creating an optical effect.
The woman, who opted not to reveal her identity, captured footage showing the moment when round little lights the size of a pea, mostly of blue color, fly freely across her living room in an insect-like pattern.
She first saw them on a photo she had taken of someone in her home, but she thought it was just a reflection. So she moved the camera around and that’s when she realized the house was full of them.
And while at first sight the phenomenon appears to be just dust particles, John Bomhoff, who has been a videographer and editor for over 30 years, says he has never seen anything like this.
“An old friend of mine that I will call Sally came to my studio. She prefers not to reveal herself right now because she doesn’t want any personal attention brought to her or to her home,” Bomhoff said. “She just wants an explanation of what is starting to appear on her cell phone. She came to me thinking there was a logical explanation, like something involving cell phone pixel charges or lenses reflection or something like that,” he continued.
Reportedly, Sally had used a different cell phone and she kept getting the same results.
“The tiny blue dots of light appear randomly, and they are always moving quickly, I call them Blue Picketts,” the videographer explained.
At first, he says, he thought the lights were just some sort of bioluminescent insect, but he quickly dismissed that theory when Sally mentioned that they were invisible to the naked eye.
“I began to analyze the footage. A few things were obvious from the start,” he explains. “They are not reflections of anything, they move in directions totally unrelated to the camera movement, and they move just as much when the camera is still. They move much faster than the camera is moving, and although many seem to be straight lines, they are not all in straight lines.”
The lights also taken random turns and don’t seem to be afraid of the camera.
One of the lights is studied by Bomhoff as he finds out more about its body mass.
I know drones can be a useful tool in society, but sometimes they creep me out a little. Now there’s autonomous drones that can follow you wherever you go.
Red UFO Light over Penampang, Malaysia on 3rd September 2014
Red UFO Light over Penampang, Malaysia on 3rd September 2014
News said: Kota Kinabalu: The appearance of red light in the sky is clear for a few minutes and caused people to panic, but some are quick to make various assumptions including claiming the incident was caused by a meteor or comet. It is understood that the red light was still clearly visible around Penampang and Putatan starting at 7 pm yesterday, before starting to blur and eventually disappeared at about 10pm. A resident who only wanted to be known as Winnie, 22, said he was aware of the phenomenon when driving a car to go home, about 9pm.
“Then, I drove to Tanjung Aru and people came out of the house to see it.
“I stopped the vehicle and saw a line of light in the sky and thought it was a meteor,” he said when we met yesterday.
Winnie said, the situation is somewhat unusual because the light of a comet will move, but this light appeared stationary.
Strange UFO lights over Los Angeles, California on 10th June 2014
Strange UFO lights over Los Angeles, California on 10th June 2014
New interesting video footage of three UFO lights recorded near Los Angeles, California on 10th June 2014.
Witness said: This Video Was Taken On June 10, 2014 At 1:53p (PST). The Location Was An Hour Away From LAX Airport And In The Middle Of Nowhere….Possibly On The Border Of California And Nevada. Pay Attention To The Many Small Orb-Like Lights (Some Are In Pairs; Others Are Single) Surrounding The 3 Lights- They’re Moving Very Slowly & Some Are Literally Disappearing And Reappearing Around The Main Lights. Another Thing I Found Odd Was That The Three Main Lights Were Extremely Bright (Almost As Bright As The Sun), & I Had Trouble Looking Directly At Them…Made My Eyes Hurt. Also, Notice The Beautiful And Unusual Light Beams Coming Off Of The Three Main Lights. This Was An Unusual Occurrence And Something I Wanted To Share.

(N.Morgan) In an exciting discovery, previously unknown archaeological monuments have been discovered around Stonehenge. This latest find was a part of an unprecedented digital mapping project that will transform our knowledge of this iconic landscape – including remarkable new findings on the world’s largest ‘super henge’, Durrington Walls. Stonehenge has always been a place of mystery and wonder and now we have another piece of the puzzle. The Stonehenge Hidden Landscapes Project, led by the University of Birmingham in conjunction with the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Archaeological Prospection and Virtual Archaeology, is the largest project of its kind. Remote sensing techniques and geophysical surveys have discovered hundreds of new features which now form part of the most detailed archaeological digital map of the Stonehenge landscape ever produced.
The startling results of the survey, unveiled in full at the British Science Festival, include 17 previously unknown ritual monuments dating to the period when Stonehenge achieved its iconic shape. Dozens of burial mounds have been mapped in minute detail, including a long barrow (a burial mound dating to before Stonehenge) which revealed a massive timber building, probably used for the ritual inhumation of the dead following a complicated sequence of exposure and excarnation (defleshing), and which was finally covered by an earthen mound. The project has also revealed exciting new – and completely unexpected – information on previously known monuments. Among the most significant relate to the Durrington Walls ‘super henge’, situated a short distance from Stonehenge. This immense ritual monument, probably the largest of its type in the world, has a circumference of more than 1.5 kilometers (0.93 miles). A new survey reveals that this had an early phase when the monument was flanked with a row of massive posts or stones, perhaps up to three meters high and up to 60 in number – some of which may still survive beneath the massive banks surrounding the monument. Only revealed by the cutting-edge technology used in the project, the survey has added yet another dimension to this vast and enigmatic structure.
Work also revealed novel types of monument including massive prehistoric pits, some of which appear to form astronomic alignments, plus new information on hundreds of burial mounds, Bronze Age, Iron Age and Roman settlements and fields at a level of detail never previously seen. Taken together, these results – which will be featured in a major new BBC Two series titled Operation Stonehenge: What Lies Beneath – show that new technology is reshaping how archaeologists understand the landscape of Stonehenge and its development over a period of more than 11,000 years. In the year marking the centenary of the First World War, the new Stonehenge map even impacts on our knowledge of that momentous event. Surveys have produced detailed maps of the practice trenches dug around Stonehenge to prepare troops for battle on the western front, as well as maps of RAF/RFC Stonehenge – one of Britain’s first military airbases used by the Royal Flying Corps between 1917 and 1920. British project leader Professor Vincent Gaffney, Chair in Landscape Archaeology and Geomatics at the University of Birmingham, said: ‘The Stonehenge Hidden Landscapes Project is unique at a global level. Not only has it revolutionised how archaeologists use new technologies to interpret the past, it has transformed how we understand Stonehenge and its landscape. ‘Despite Stonehenge being the most iconic of all prehistoric monuments and occupying one of the richest archaeological landscapes in the world, much of this landscape in effect remains terra incognita.
‘This project has revealed that the area around Stonehenge is teeming with previously unseen archaeology and that the application of new technology can transform how archaeologists and the wider public understand one of the best-studied landscapes on Earth. ‘New monuments have been revealed, as well as new types of monument that have previously never been seen by archaeologists. All of this information has been placed within a single digital map, which will guide how Stonehenge and its landscape are studied in the future. Stonehenge may never be the same again.’
The boomerang-shaped UFO appeared to be escorted by two military jets as it moved over McNeal, Arizona, about 9:08 p.m. on September 9, 2014. (Credit: Google)
An Arizona witness at McNeal reported watching a boomerang-shaped UFO that appeared to be escorted by two military jets about 9:08 p.m. on September 9, 2014, according to testimony in Case 59707 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The reporting witness and his mother were in their barn feeding horses when a rumbling sound was heard overhead.
“I’ve heard that a hundred times,” the witness stated. “There was a full moon rising in the east about three or four fingers above the horizon and a very clear night. I looked up to the west to where I heard the plane and saw red lights moving southeast; but it was strange.”
The witness described the object.
“It had five lights in a boomerang pattern – one on the nose and two more on each side. If it was a plane it was the biggest plane I’ve ever seen. It was really high up too. But I’ve seen airliners around that same height and it was five times bigger than those.”
The witness then noticed two fighter jets in the area.
“There were two jet fighters tailing slightly behind the tips of its wings. I knew they were separate aircraft because they moved independently from the red lights which stayed together and they were not red but more like white/ yellow in color. As the object and jets passed over I could see the jets had blinking aircraft lights – like you see on all aircraft.”
The witness continued to watch, but only saw the jets again.
“I kept watching for a few more minutes until the lights faded by the glare of the moon to the southeast. I went back to the barn and told my mother what I had seen. A few minutes after that at 9:20 p.m. I saw two jet fighters returning from the same direction going northwest. They were no longer escorting anything and had their afterburners on. They were going much faster than when I had previously seen them.”
McNeal is an unincorporated community in Cochise County, Arizona, population 238. Arizona MUFON is investigating. Arizona has a current UFO Alert Rating of 4 with a higher than average number of recent reports nationally. Arizona had 10 UFO reports in August 2014 – the 19st highest reporting state – while California had 99 reports as the highest reporting state. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.
The UFO Alert Rating System is based on five levels – 1 through 5 – where states with 150 or more reports for the month are rated an Alert 1; states with 100 or more reports are rated an Alert 2; 25 reports or more for the month are rated an Alert 3; 13 or more reports are rated an Alert 4; and those states with less than 13 reports for the month are an Alert 5.
Did a meteorite slam into a wooded area near Managua, Nicaragua’s international airport, or was it something else? Something caused a loud explosion, and left a crater 39 feet across, government officials said, according to The Associated Press. No damage or injuries were reported.
Humberto Garcia, of the Astronomy Center at the National Autonomous University of Nicaragua, speculated this might have been a meteorite from an asteroid dubbed “2014 RC” that soared past Earth.
At its closest, asteroid 2014 RC was a mere 25,000 miles from the Earth’s surface, about one-tenth of the distance to the moon, according to NASA.
NASA estimated the asteroid to be approximately 65 feet wide—roughly the size of a house.
This makes it similar in size to the Chelyabinsk meteor that exploded over Russia’s Ural Mountains region in February 2013 with the strength of 40 Hiroshima bombs, injuring more than 1,200 people. However, NASA said this was “unrelated” to RC 2014, citing a 13-hour difference in the asteroid flyby and the crater explosion, and the fact that no fireball was seen in the sky.
NASA’s Near Earth Object Program tracks more than 11,000 asteroids in orbits that pass relatively close to Earth.
1. What was your prime motivation and inspiration in creating your new book, “UFO & Alien Management A Guide to Discovering, Evaluating, and Directing Sightings, Abductions, & Contactee Experieces”?
This may sound odd, but initially I decided to write this book because of expense. I’d had a UFO remembrance (out of the blue) many years ago and I’d wanted to have a hypnotic regression to find out more, but could never afford the cost. Disposable income (which to me was anything beyond shelter, food, and a good book) would not allow me to afford hypnosis at that time. I’d try to find someone I could afford every couple years or so, to no avail, and then I had a lightning bolt thought, “Gee, I don’t need a hypnotist. I can learn hypnosis myself.” Well, upon investigation, of course, the classes went into the thousands and I continued to be frustrated. Some time later, I’d become an editor for Schiffer Publishing and eventually in charge of the paranormal division. I began to meet people. And they knew people. And those people knew people…a wonderful network of learning, experiences, and friendships blossomed. Through one of my contacts, I met a hypnotist who was expanding his business and he had a program I could afford. I became a certified hypnotist for past-life regression and alien abduction (among other topics). It was my immediate goal to make hypnosis affordable for those needing it for abduction or UFO experiences. As I worked with people, I decided that I wanted to go one step further and give people the skill to do what was not afforded to me so long ago: self discovery of an occurrence. My book was born—simple, helpful, and filled with events.
2. Could you share some of your own personal paranormal experiences with us regarding UFOs or aliens?
I’m not one of the people who has experienced the often horrendous memory of physical abduction. I’ve had sightings. I had my first (that I know of and it’s probably not my first at all) in Texas in 1980: the craft was cigar shaped hovering at the level of telephone poles, just a few hundred feet from a busy six-lane highway where (oddly) only my car suddenly traveled, then simply not remembering anything from that day until ten years later. There have been several quickie sightings also, where one’s mind says: No, that didn’t happen. But the big one that changed my life was recent—on September 13, 2013, in Atglen, Pennsylvania. UFO author/investigator Gerry Medvec, UFO investigator/historian Vicki Stong, and I saw nineteen orange lights in a southern sky performance, it would seem, orchestrated just for us. They went in all directions and all speeds in a spectacular light show that lasted about twenty minutes. We’d meditated for ten days leading up to the event, asking for a friendly, safe sighting. This was granted in a big way! I haven’t been the same since.
3. I’ve had some UFO encounters where the craft were at tree top level. And don’t remember much else. How can we remember these events?
This is where my book comes in handy. I use a specific visualization technique that takes the experiencer down into the subconscious and then up a mountain to revisit the incident.
4. I see you use Archangel Michael to help in some of your teachings in the book. What are your thoughts on Michael? I always found Michael interesting because even Voodoo folks invoke him.
As I mentioned before, I work as an editor for a publishing company in charge of the paranormal division. A few years ago, I attended an Angel seminar with Pat Cassel in Lancaster, PA. At one point in the class, she began to give specific channeled messages from the angels to each of the participants. I remember her so clearly standing in front of me and saying in confusion, “What is it you do for a living?” I told her I worked with ghosts and UFOs and she shook her head saying, “Ah, now I understand. See me after the class. Archangel Michael has a prayer that you need to say before you do anything involved with these strange topics. It’s important to your life.” I immediately started using the prayer she gave me, and I am totally serious in saying that I felt something lift off me right away. It had been as though paranormal energy was just sitting on top of me, building up day by day, year by year. And I must say, too, that there have been some negative things that have occurred relating to my job since then where I’ve screamed out that prayer in my head, terrified of attempted abductions. The prayer always works and Michael always comes. I’m a believer. I go into protection aspects in my book as well and offer Pat’s prescription. I also believe that it doesn’t matter what you believe; it is what it is—whether you and I believe it or not. Michael is for everyone. You mention Voodoo and Michael. Not all Voodoo is about sticking pins in dolls. It’s all about intention.
5. Could you share some exercises or meditations from your book with us?
It really wouldn’t help to have some piece of the concept in this context. I made the book so concise that each step leads to the next—short and sweet. Nothing really works alone. It’s treated very much like regular hypnosis. There is no real meditation. Rather, this is relaxation through visualization. One goes down into the valley and up a mountain to meet with a guide and then on to the experience and back. It’s as simple as that.
6. So what do you think about Reptilians or aliens with ill intent? I personally don’t think all Reptilians have ill intent. For all I know there could be a Reptilian Buddha sending love to us right now from Planet Zanzabarf. Do you really think a meditation can protect us from them?
Ya know, I haven’t a clue. This was the difficulty I had writing my book. After I wrote it, I talked with a couple investigators—one, an anthropologist (Jordan Hofer)—who started talking about the negative intent of some species. Since I’d not had any negative experiences (at the time of the writing of the book), I didn’t think to include those kinds of problems. Once I’d heard what he had to say, I thought, “Hmmmm. I better rethink this.” I added the cautions
I’ve never heard anything good about the Reptilians, but like you, I think maybe there are good and bad in all “peoples.” I ask readers not to use them in their experience just to be safe (and mainly because I’ve no real knowledge/experience to base my thinking on)
Can meditation protect you from them? I think it can, as now I can say that as I’ve screamed out to the Archangel Michael using the protection prayer, and whatever was about to happen, didn’t. This has taken place three times now. (I guess my name is out there now!) So, it worked for me. I did learn that getting lazy about protection (which happens when you repeat the same thing over and over for a while) counteracts the process and does not provide the protection you need. One needs to be vigilant. This is a big caution and why I put all the tips at the end of the book.
7. This is a wild card question. What would you like to share with us from your book that our readers might find interesting?
Bottom line, the experience you have is a mind blower. If you follow the steps, finding out something you didn’t know is amazing. Of course, I’ve minimally described who might show up to guide you and I’ve found this to be very interesting. People are visited by all manner of beings. Sometimes even deceased friends or family members come to guide the experience. There’s a camel to carry burdens that people may find interesting, too. This actually takes some of the stress out of the preparation.
8. What are you up to next book wise or projects wise and any links you’d like to share?
I’m always working on something, but right now, I’ve been sitting back to wait for a sign. The UFO experience last year was so life changing for me, that I feel I need to wait to see what synchronicity brings my way.

Golden UFO Disk Caught At Space Station On Live Cam in September. There have been lots of fascinating UFOs seen from human space vehicles and reportedly seen by the astronauts themselves. What do you think these objects are? Space vehicles driven by aliens or other phenomena like debris or reflections?
See-through UFO Triangle Caught On Video Using Night Vision Over North Carolina. This video was published September 5th on YouTube. I find Night Vision technology to be very interesting and would like to experiment with it myself one day.
Check the video out, what do you think this is? Military drone, civilian airplane or something else?
Source: Mutual UFO Network (MUFON)Published on Sep 5, 2014 Witness statement: It was, I believe, the night after the full moon in May. I had a small telescope and I was trying to get some good views of the moon. I also had a night vision monocular, a PVS-14 with a 3x magnifier on a tripod with a video camera attached to it and a set of night vision goggles, PVS-7D (Delta’s) around my neck. I usually have the goggles with me if it’s a clear night out. There were no clouds that night. I was looking through the goggles and noticed a “plane” coming toward me from the north, heading south. It was relatively low, 5000 feet or a little less. I’m pretty good at estimating distances, I’m a experienced skydiver and long distance shooter. I thought it was a little weird that I wasn’t hearing it coming towards me, Doppler effect, so I started recording on the PVS-14. I probably noticed it when it was maybe at a 75* angle. As it was passing over me, I still heard NOTHiNG! No sound what so ever. So I’m trying to look at it through the goggles and record it with the monocular at the same time. As I’m watching it, I notice that as it’s passing stars, I could see stars through the craft!!!! I saw stars through the “fuselage” of the craft!!! Later, I confirmed this when I reviewed the video. The craft was in the shape of a triangle. There were two lights at the rear of the vehicle, circular, with a blinking light, also circular, almost between them, it was just a little above the two rear lights. The light in front was shaped like a triangle itself, with a small, round light right behind it. So all together, 5 lights. I have, of course, seen planes through night vision goggles, helicopters, you can hear planes at 5000 feet, you can hear planes at 15,000 feet, 20,000 feet. This thing was low and slow and silent!! Even as it past over me and continued on. I watched for a total of 8 minutes and 30 seconds. When I first noticed it, again at about 75*, so if I saw it sooner, I might have seen it for 13-14 minutes? The last weird thing that I noticed, was that when I took the goggles down for a second to get a barring as to where it was in the sky, I couldn’t see any of the lights, not the fixed lights, not the single blinking light. So either all the lights were very dim and the night vision enhanced them like they were made to do, or the lights were infrared, basically naked to the naked eye. It flew out of sight, heading towards the south. So to recap: 1: it was silent. 2: it was very slow moving. 3: the lights were either very dim or infrared. 4: I could see through it!!! Adaptive camouflage??? First time I’ve seen the real thing. 5: I couldn’t see it without night vision goggles. I will attach a “freeze frame” from the video. If you would like to see the video, please let me know.
MNPARASCI COMMENTARY I would love to see the follow through on this case. Was there a check of FAA & Military airspace radar done by MUFON? At the very least, then we could loosely verify that this wasn’t some sort of civilian or military aircraft. One of he cues that catches me is the flashing marker light. This to me is screams civilian aircraft, unless UFO’s are starting to abide by FAA guidelines and regulations. However, without a lot more information I can not make any judgement on what this really is.
The Fifth Trumpet …4They were told not to hurt the grass of the earth, nor any green thing, nor any tree, but only the men who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads. 5And they were not permitted to kill anyone, but to torment for five months; and their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it stings a man. 6And in those days men will seek death and will not find it; they will long to die, and death flees from them.…
UFO sightings were up in some states, with 285 sightings being reported across seven states over just the month of August.
A new report from the Mutual UFO Network on the number of sightings in August of 2014. The states reporting the highest number of UFOs for August were California, Washington, Illinois, Missouri, North Carolina, Oregon, Colorado, Indiana and New Jersey.
Seven states, though, combined for an impressive 285 UFO sightings for the month. Those were California, Texas, New York, Michigan, Florida, Pennsylvania, and Ohio. California led the way with 99 UFO sightings reported by itself, nearly half of the spike in what MUFON calls UFO Alert 3 states.
The most commonly reported UFO was the spherical type, with 179 such cases being reported in August. Others report seeing circular UFOs, star-shaped UFOs, and triangular UFOs. Other shapes include discs, ovals, fireballs, cylinders, cigars, and teardrops. There were even a few Saturn-like UFOs, though we don’t know if observers were looking through a telescope at the time they saw those.
In Sayersville, NJ, a witness reported watching and photographing a diamond-shaped UFO moving at about the level of the treetops.
It’s not just UFO sightings, though; MUFON also says people reported 28 occurrences of a UFO taking off, hovering, or landing near them. In one case, an observer said they even observed an “entity” entering or exiting a craft.

1. What lead and inspired you to create your new book entitled “The Ghost Rockets: Mystery Missiles and Phantom Projectiles in our Skies?”
I have a number of friends who work in various academic and government jobs who are fascinated with the unexplained, though most often from a more “critical” perspective like myself. Due to their role in government or the scientific community, they most often have to maintain a low profile (which is a whole different conversation we could have). Anyhow, one of these friends with a background in engineering and aerospace began looking into reports of rocket or missile-like UFOs following a report of a “rocket” seen near an airport in Glasgow last year, which turned out to be a toy balloon. What he found picqued my interest, and we began looking more deeply into the possibility that there are rocket (or rocket like) technologies buzzing around in our skies, which are presently unaccounted for.
2. Could you go into what exactly mystery missiles and phantom projectiles are in your perspective?
It’s difficult to say, especially since the raw data is primarily the circumstantial witness reporting (although some of it is very good, like the reports I learned of that exist in NASA’s Aviation Safety Reporting System database, which is publicly available online). However, in modern usage, I think the closest fit for what we’re observing in such cases are some kind of drone technology, although at times they do appear to behave more like weaponized ballistic technology. Usually, a missile or rocket has a very specific purpose, and their appearances are generally expected to be accounted for by government agencies behind their launches. This doesn’t always seem to be the case, however, so far as what witnesses have described over the years, and this book gets into some of those cases.
3. So when did these events start to happen exactly as far as seeing these phantom projectiles? Is the point of origins right after World War 2?
The story about these “mystery missiles” goes back to 1946 in Sweden and other parts of Scandinavia, where immediately after WWII there were hundreds of reports of objects resembling rockets seen flying over the countryside during the summer months. The Swedish government formed a study group to determine their origin, and failed to muster any scientific data to account for them, and thus publicly issued a dismissal on the grounds that post-WWII paranoia may have been the contributing factor. But at least a few researchers on that panel, which some historians point out as the technically being first government UFO study group, have noted in years since that there did appear to be a technology of some sort that was operating in the skies over Sweden, which resembled more advanced cruise missile technologies of today. However, no such technology was known to have existed on par with what was seen in 1946, hence the use of the term “Ghost Rockets,” which I applied throughout the book in relation to similar reports that have continued around the world right up to the present day.
4. Are people seeing mystery missiles up to this day in the modern era and could you share a case with us?
Objects that are similar to the classic 1946 Ghost Rockets are still reported, and there have even been recent cases that emerged since the publication of my book! One that has made headlines was a case where a British pilot observed what he described as a bullet shaped object, similar to a “flying rugby ball,” flying dangerously close to his aircraft last summer. The altitude and behavior of the object he observed was inconsistent with most prosaic explanations, and while we could attempt to say he had simply been mistaken, toward the end of my book I recount a number of very similar cases to what occurred last summer over Europe. There have even been cases where aircraft at extremely high altitudes have managed to strike objects while in flight, resulting in dents on the nose-cone of the aircraft! Granted, implosion due to pressure changes at such altitudes, as well as rare instances where high-flying birds may have been unfortunate enough to have a collision with the radome of the plane, could account for at least some of these impacts.
5. Could you go into some of the Long Island cases with us from New York?
I bring up the Long Island cases because of their proximity, both in location, and time frame, to the tragic TWA Flight 800 incident. There were a number of instances where witnesses including experienced commercial pilots leaving JFK International Airport reported seeing rockets or flares over Long Island Sound in the weeks before, and even after, the Flight 800 crash. Peter Davenport of the National UFO Reporting Center managed to retrieve a transcript of a dialogue between the crews aboard a Lufthansa and a British Airways flight as they spoke with operators at Boston ATC, as they observed a green “missile” flying above and adjacent to them while departing from JFK. The object obviously remained in the sky longer than a meteor, following what appeared to be a horizontal trajectory for a period of several minutes, and was observed from both aircraft as they travelled. This incident took place remarkably close to a number of others, some involving red or pink “flares” rising up from the ocean and moving dangerously near commercial aircraft.
Now I’ll make an interesting observation here. In my book, I don’t directly suggest that TWA Flight 800 was taken down by a missile… I merely report what most other documentaries on this subject have not done, and that is that there were similar reports of flare-like objects seen over Long Island in the weeks and months before and after Flight 800 went down. Since the conventional explanation here is that the crash resulted from a spark in the center-wing fuel tank, I presume most modern skeptics would discount these cases, and further say that I’m doing “more harm than good” by presenting information that appears to steer the mind of the reader toward an alternative conclusion about the fate of TWA Flight 800. Some might even call that “pseuoscience.” However, I maintain that these cases described in the relevant chapter of my book are well documented, and as isolated incidents unto themselves, should be considered for the dangers they may have represented. And yes, the did occur in the same general vicinity of the TWA Flight 800 crash. Knowing this, which is more irresponsible: presenting well-documented data that may hold implications with regard to a terrible tragedy that occurred, or staunchly overlooking it out of concern that those implications, close to being contrary to the “official narrative,” will do more harm than good by promoting what some would call a conspiracy theory? I outline the official narrative in the book, but also present the facts regarding those other incidents that I simply don’t think many others have taken the time to examine. The data is right there for anyone to read, and I in no way think that presenting it is harmful, or in support of “conspiracy theories.” It’s simply a presentation of what I find to be factual data, to the best of my ability to discern.
6. What is one of your favorite cases involving phantom projectiles?
There is a case that took place in the Bahamas back in the 1980s, over an area called The Tongue of the Ocean (I have some satellite images in the book that show the region). In the 1980s, a pair of AUTEC employees on a night shift aboard a seabound vessel observed a pair of colored “rockets” glide overhead, traveling parallel to the ocean, as if on course to some destination. The observers found this to be extremely odd, as these “rockets” didn’t behave like weapons or ballistic missiles, but more like rocket-driven “drones” of some kind.
7. I have to wonder if some of these ghost rockets are people seeing future or past events from their now moments. Like a glimpse into the matrix so to speak where time suspends and they catch a glimmer of a rocket caught in a time flux. Any more insights into the phenomenon you can share?
In a strictly speculative sense, I’ve wondered about the temporal component in relation to UFO reports, which I discussed in my book The UFO Singularity. Again, many amidst my skeptical brethren out there disliked that book, because they felt it was too speculative (although I did source a wealth of scientific literature in doing so, for which a few others in academic circles, particularly mathematicians and microbiologists, issued a lot of praise). I state that this approach is speculative, but I don’t find speculating, at times, about observable phenomenon to always be “harmful.” It can be though, and in defense of the hard-line skeptics, I think that most of them are primarily concerned about the harmful things that pseudoscientific claims can often present. With the consideration of some phenomenon that may possess a temporal component, we’re merely considering what I’m sure an untold number of physicists have done as well… and without a valid time machine (or even a valid working model for how one would work), we’re all just speculating. But speculation, when carried out in a reasonable fashion, is sometimes a useful tool for getting our gears turning… and then it’s up to us to get back to looking for hard data that backs up those ideas, which then can be presented later, if proven, as scientific fact. So yes, I’ve wondered about what we might call “future technologies,” and I’ve written about those… with The Ghost Rockets, I’ve gotten back to documenting and critically analyzing data, which is quite a departure from my last book… and my readers have noticed, let me assure you! But most of the feedback has been good, all things considered. A few were upset that the book didn’t just go on ad-nauseum about the Scandinavian cases from 1946, but I state in the book that I’m applying the “Ghost Rocket” term across the board to similar reports that have occurred in decades leading up to the present day, and that plenty of exhaustive literature about the 1946 rocket wave already exists. I’m not a huge fan of just going out there and re-writing what other authors have already written, you know, and I feel there is a lot of “new” information this book presents for people interested in obscure reports of unexplained aerial phenomenon.
8. Have any other researchers gotten into this topic? Because from what I’ve seen you are the only one I’ve seen personally to tackle it.
As I had mentioned, a wealth of material exists that documents the old rocket reports from the 1940s. Jerome Clark wrote a lot about this, as well as Clas Svahn and Anders Liljegren, a pair of fine Swedish researchers on the subject. Svahn and Liljegren also documented at least a few of ongoing rocket reports that occurred throughout the 1960s, 70s and 80s; with the passage of time, new information about some of those has surfaced, as well as renewed scientific interest in solving them. As a result, I think I managed to flesh out a few of those incidents and bring a lot of new information to those, based on scientific investigations which, in a few cases, may detract from the “missile” theories related to those incidents. But as a researcher, one must attempt to be as thorough as possible, and of course, the aforementioned gentlemen did that at the time they had written about those cases. One of the important things about any area of study like this is to review the old literature and see what new concepts or emerging evidence might lend to it. Here, we’re fortunate to have science that we can often apply to several decades-old mysteries, which helps us to move closer to understanding them better, and in The Ghost Rockets, I think we are able to take a closer look at some of the unexplained missile reports from the past with a new, modern perspective.
9. What would you like to share from the book with us that our readers might find fascinating?
Simply put, these rocket reports represent a curious element within the context of UFO studies. There is that common misconception that UFO means “alien spaceship,” which I think is a ludicrous misunderstanding. UFO means, and has always meant “unidentified flying object.” There is some compelling data out there, but I don’t think any of it conclusively proves that we are dealing with extraterrestrial technologies. Therefore, to say that UFOs represent ET space vessels is a gross stretch in judgement; the possibility exists, but possibility alone does not constitute proof, and I maintain resolutely that we have yet to discover hard proof that alien visitors from other planets have arrived here on Earth. There are, however, a wealth of reports of flying objects of unknown origin, which seem to represent a highly sophisticated technology being employed; my first guess is that these would have to originate from here on Earth, but the problem, as we consistently see in the better reports of unexplained aerial phenomenon, is that these technologies, whatever they may be, appear at times to be so advanced that they border on the exotic or otherworldly. Still, appearance alone cannot be taken as “proof” of the otherworldly, no matter how badly any of us want that to be the case. The possibility remains, but it is merely one in a long list of complex possible solutions to what we call the “UFO” mystery.
10. What are you up to next book wise and any projects or news you’d like to share with us before we depart? Thanks.
I have about four or five ideas I’m working with as far as books, and I’ve been talking with my publishers, as well as looking at self-publishing alternatives, which both fascinate me from a technological and marketing standpoint, and also seem to represent the next wave of success in writing and publishing for driven entrepreneurs. So we’ll see what the future holds… and of course, if I’m lucky, I’ll continue to find intriguing data that I can write about as honestly as possible. If we can present good facts, we might one day be able to present a truly strong argument regarding these UFO things after all.
Luis Augusto Garcia Rosado, the minister of tourism for the Mexican state of Campeche, said new evidence has emerged “of contact between the Mayans and extraterrestrials, supported by translations of certain codices, which the government has kept secure in underground vaults for some time.”
He also spoke, in a phone conversation, of “landing pads in the jungle that are 3,000 years old.”
Raul-Julia claims there is proof that the Mayans had intended to lead the planet for thousands of years, but were forced to escape after an invasion by “men of dark intentions,” leaving behind evidence of an advanced race.
“The Mexican government is not making this statement on their own — everything we say, we’re going to back it up,” he said.

If you do not know who Robert Bigelow is or what he will mean to your world you need to get informed and fast. Listen to the video below and what is in store for you and space and the aliens and UFOs who have been visiting us
Allison Barta of rural Cass Lake, Minn., took this photo on Sept. 2, 2013. She said the object on the top left corner is not a lens flare, and that she spotted the saucer-shaped object with the naked eye. It was in the sky, translucent, circular, disc-like and most certainly, positively and identifiably unidentifiable. It was also an object that was flying. For the moment, we were pretty dumbfounded,” she said of her and her friend, Neil Peterson. “The two of us are watching it zoom across the sky, and I’m trying to get another picture of it, but I couldn’t catch it.” The lone image she did capture, however, might be enough to whet the appetites of UFO enthusiasts, believers, identifiers, or whatever they prefer to be called. The object is… something. Barta was taking pictures of pelicans outside her rural Cass Lake home in northern Minnesota on Labor Day, Sept. 2. That’s when she saw the saucer, which spanned the horizon in just a few seconds at an incredible speed, she said. The pelicans are in the photo. The object is, too. “Was it a drone? Was it somebody who actually created something and they were flying it? Was it a real UFO from another planet?” she said. “It’s not an aircraft known to this planet. I don’t really know what it is.” Barta, a science teacher at the Bug O Nay Ge Shig school, has spent plenty of time looking at the sky. In fact, a few years back, she spent an entire summer gazing upward, mapping stellar bodies for a program called “Star Watch.” She urged her students to do the same. But in all those nights, there was never anything so obviously unidentifiable. “I’m kind of thrilled I saw it,” she said. Barta is not concerned with the tinfoil-hat implications of walking around and showing off a picture of a UFO. She said the majority of people she’s approached have expressed interest in viewing the photo. “The reactions are amazing,” Barta said. “There’s only been very few people that just walked away and don’t want to see it. I’m not standing there and going ‘Oh, it’s aliens.’ But it’s definitely not a lens flare, cause we saw it with the naked eye.” Barta considers herself fairly handy with a camera, but after initially catching the object in her lens, she couldn’t catch up with it again. There is only the one shot. She compared it to winning the lottery. “What are the chances of getting that picture?” she said. “You need to not be afraid to share, so I’m sharing it. We all live on this Earth and we should look out for each other.” Justin Glawe reports for the Bemidji Pioneer.

VERY LARGE ALIEN CRAFT SHADOWING A COMMERCIAL PLANE OVER VIRGINIA
9-5-13 CHANTILLY VIRGINIA
I was sitting in my front porch having my morning coffee and was on a conference call. I happened to glance at the sky and saw an airplane flying at approximately 15,000 – 18,000 ft altitude. There was an object (white) flying in front of the plane. This object seemed rectangular (difficult to ascertain the shape at that altitude) and was white in color. The object was at the same altitude as the commercial airliner. What caught my eye was that the plane had a contrail but the object did not. The second thing that caught my eye was that the object was very close to the airplane (less than an inch from my vantage point). The object stayed in-front of the plane for approximately 2 minutes and then simply disappeared (vanished). I thought it may be the reflection from the plane since the plane was flying north/west and the sun was in the east but then I saw additional planes flying at the same altitude in approximately the same flight path and they did not have any reflections or objects around them. The pilots of this plane must have seen the object since the size of the object and the altitude was similar to the plane. The plane seemed like a commercial airliner (Airbus/Boeing) and the object was of similar size if not bigger. The object was simply leading the airplane and did not perform any unusual motions but to me it seemed like it was hovering in front of the plane. The airplane did not take any evasive actions but simply continued in a straight line. Only after the object disappeared did the plane bank five degrees to the right and continued in its path. It was very strange. I live near Dulles airport, so see airplanes quite frequently and this plane given it altitude, could not have taken off from Dulles but rather points South or South/East.
NASA CAUGHT DOCTORING AND DELETING SOHO AND SUN UFO IMAGES
On January 22nd, 2011 Youtube user “BeePeeOilDisaster’ had posted ” Go to the NASA STEREO website, input 20110122 and 20110122 using Behind EUVI 195 then after it loads scroll to the time frame 10:46:10 and there is the original… You can save it to your PC and adjust the Zoom, Brightness and Contrast to bring out the detail of the image. With the proper knowledge and techniques so much detail can be brought out by adjusting the zoom, brightness and contrast. I am just amazed at this photo. Now in latest development NASA has once again censored a UFO type object from their STEREO website archived pictures after he made a video bringing attention to the UFO type object. According to him this is the third time that NASA has been exposed by me censoring these very important discoveries of these UFO type objects. I am bewildered and a little overwhelmed by the entire situation! We like to inform our readers that the video has been posted since Jan. 22, 2011 on U-Tube. He added : on Jan. 27, 2011 I began receiving comments saying that my video was fake based on the fact that the UFO type object was no longer viewable in the original picture located on the NASA STEREO website located within the picture archives. Just as before once again, I went to the website to look for myself and sure enough NASA has removed the UFO type object that I have highlighted in my video. Here are links to the original and the censored pictures which I have posted online so that you can download them and do your own investigating and comparisons. Again I am amazed that NASA would do this and all I can do is tell you the facts as I know them to be. As before the URL was changed the original has the 7 and after being censored that 7 changed to a 4 making the original URL a dead link that brings up the 404 File Not Found error message. I hope that others downloaded the original at the same time as I did and they will be able to corroborate my story.
KENS NOTE: I view these NASA Sun photos every day and NASA did change their format and they have been using low-definition photos for a year or more now. Before they were hi-definition photos and these UFO’s were easily recognized. There is something rotten in Denmark my friends.

GREAT PHOTOS OF AN ALIEN CRAFT OVER NORTH CAROLINA
9-5-13 WINSTON SALEM NORTH CAROLINA
I had just left my Girlfriends house outside of Winston Salem off of I-40 heading east toward. I-52 , when Inoticed and odd shapes object in the sky not very high above the city of Winston, at 3:30 am. The object was visibly projecting light! To be clear NOT reflecting, but projecting a beam of light toward the ground. I kept an eye on it to see if I could notice and red or green lights like a plane or helicopter would have and after a few minutes I was able to determine indeed it did not have any. I continued onto hwy 52 heading south when I noticed it had moved drastically south and had somewhat changed what the shape was. I pulled over after a few minutes to get a better look and shut my car off to see if I could hear anything. With no traffic in sight it was dead silence, I could not her a sound coming from this. I took my phone out and continued to take about 15 pictures and as I zoomed in that’s when it became extremely obvious this was not any aircraft I have ever seen before. It continued to change shapes, from a half sphere to almost a boomerang of multiple lights. A few pictures you can actually see that it had multiple individual lights on the perimeter of it. It seem to come a little closer after a bit and I was by myself and nervous , so proceeded down 52 south with the craft staying constantly to my left side, after about 25 minutes I made it to interstate 85 and headed south west, that when the craft continued a south bound path and I eventually lost site of it.
Date of sighting: August 22, 2014 Location of sighting: Melbourne, Australia
Here we hav Lou who is famous for his night vision catches of UFOs over Melbourne. Here he catches a massive UFO traveling slowly across the sky. If you look carefully, you will notice that it has six even sides…a hexagon. SCW

Kans op poollicht in Nederland na krachtige uitbarsting op de zon
Kans op poollicht in Nederland na krachtige uitbarsting op de zon
Er bestaat een kans dat de komende nachten in Nederland het poollicht of noorderlicht is te zien. Dat zegt amateursterrenkundige Roy Keeris van de website poollicht.info. Dat het noorderlicht mogelijk te zien is, komt doordat er afgelopen dinsdag en woensdag krachtige uitbarstingen zijn geweest, zogeheten zonnevlammen. Hierdoor komt een wolk van elektromagnetisch geladen deeltjes op ons af. Poollicht ontstaat wanneer deze deeltjes in contact komen met de dampkring van de aarde.
Volgens het gespecialiseerde Solar Influences Data Center (SIDC) betrof het een min of meer verrassende en langdurige uitbarsting van de klasse X1,6 (waarbij X tot de hoogste klasse behoort). Ze deed zich voor in de actieve zonnevlek AR2158, die momenteel naar onze planeet gericht is.
De Amerikaanse website spaceweather.com meldde dat als gevolg van de zware uitbarsting een flash van ultraviolette straling de bovenste lagen van onze atmosfeer heeft geïoniseerd, waardoor meer dan een uur lang radiocommunicaties verstoord raakten.
Poollicht is in Nederland vrij zeldzaam. Het is slechts enkele keren per jaar te zien, maar dan heel laag boven de noordelijke horizon en vooral door gevoelige camera’s. De laatste keer dat het spectaculair te noemen was, was op 30 oktober 2003, aldus Keeris. Toen verscheen het poollicht urenlang in allerlei kleuren aan de hemel.
Waddeneilanden
Mensen die het natuurverschijnsel willen zien, doen er goed aan een donkere plek te zoeken, ver weg van het kunstlicht van steden. Hoe meer licht, hoe kleiner de kans het poollicht te zien. De maan zou nog roet in het eten kunnen gooien. “De maan is net vol geweest en geeft dus behoorlijk wat licht,” zegt Keeris. Er wordt aangeraden zo noordelijk mogelijk te gaan kijken, bijvoorbeeld op de Waddeneilanden.
Van bewolking zullen we waarschijnlijk geen last hebben, aangezien weerbureau weeronline.nl verwacht dat het de komende nachten helder zal zijn, vooral aan het begin van de nacht.

UNRESTRICTED STUDY REQUIRED OF UFO PHENOMENAby Bill Wickersham.
One of the world’s foremost investigators of unidentified flying objects and extraterrestrial visitation (UFO/ETV) is my close friend C.B. “Scott” Jones. It was Jones who organized and convened the 1995 Washington, D.C.-based conference “When Cosmic Cultures Meet,” which involved many of the world’s leading UFO scientists and analysts. It was also Jones who was funded and tasked by philanthropist Laurance Rockefeller to travel to Europe, Russia, China and other regions to gather information from ufologists and government officials regarding UFO/ETV activities in those and other parts of the world. Scott, who now resides in Kerrville, Texas, is a former U.S. Navy intelligence officer and special assistant to the late U.S. Sen. Claiborne Pell of Rhode Island. He is also a political scientist whose interests include peace research and impact analysis regarding human contact with off-planet cultures and other issues related to UFO/ETV phenomena. More....
ARE MASSIVE UNKNOWN CRAFT THE LEVIATHANS OF SPACE?by Scott Corrales.
We were assured by space writers and science fiction authors that the vastness of interstellar space could only be crossed by mammoth space vehicles – “generation ships”, in the parlance of some spinners of space yarns – crewed by generations of space travelers hoping to reach their destination centuries hence. The concept was ripe for speculation. What if the children of the children of the first crew became a series of stratified societies aboard their vehicle, and had forgotten the purpose of their mission? (Harlan Ellison’s Phoenix in Ashes, the novelized version of The Starlost), or the fate of the mission was entrusted to a single pilot while passengers endured dreamlike sleep until their destination was within reach (James White’s The Dream Millennium). This science fiction did not allow for super-passing gear of hyperdrive like space opera: crossing the blackness of space was a dangerous, laborious process whose ultimate payoff was never in sight.

JACK THE RIPPER DNA HOAX?by Peter Fotis Kapnistos.
In Russell Edwards’ new book, “Naming Jack the Ripper” (2014), Dr Jari Louhelainen said the killer’s DNA on a shawl was from the Polish-Jewish barber Aaron Kosminski. “However, scientists and scholars of the Ripper case have already cast doubt on Edwards and Louhelainen's specific claims, alleging that the evidence on the shawl is so compromised that any positive identification may be impossible.” More...

CATTLE MUTILATION IN SANTA FE, ARGENTINAby Scott Corrales.
The story was covered by local station Radio Amanecer and is very interesting. It states that the animal's owner found the animal in a state of nerves and trembling on Friday the 15th, and the found it dead with these injuries on Monday the 18th. Two new cases occurred during this instance: one of them in Villa Adela, in the Villa Ocampo district, at the farm of Osvaldo Marega; another occurred at Km.20, jurisdiction of Tartagal, in a field owned by the Miranda family. In each of these, the are not only many similarities to be found, but also with other events that have occurred in different parts of this northern Santa Fe community in recent months. More...

RITUAL SLAUGHTER OF SUPPRESSED SPECIESby Pat Regan.
Ritual slaughter of suppressed species – to please a ‘loving god’ or to keep religious fundamentalism alive and kicking. A loving god and his devout followers ... or sick-minded morons who cannot think for themselves? The Arabic phrase ‘Halal’ means permissible. The Hebrew word ‘Shechita’ means the slaughtering of mammals and birds for food. Both slaughter methods are regarded as distressing and highly cruel by leading animal welfare organisations. More...
ALARMING TIME COINCIDENCESby Paul Schroeder.
Part of the alarming nature of the unknown is its mysterious link to the known; I awaken each night to a lewd exhibition of the merging. I open my eyes and turn to see the digital alarm clock, sitting on the lamp table next to my bed and see: 12:12, and 1:11 am, 2:22 am and 3:33 am and 4:44 am. This distresses me so badly, upon awakening, that I cannot think; just a wave of panic that SOMETHING is awakening me with alacrity, as the calculated odds of awakening each night precisely at those specific times is astronomically impossible.

THE LONG HISTORY OF MILITARY INTELLIGENCE AND THE FLYING SAUCER PART VIIby Doc Vega.
In 1952 America was in the grip of the bloody Korean conflict often referred to as the “Forgotten War”. An overseas “Police Action” as it has been termed which cost more than 50,000 US casualties. It is quite ironic to consider the General Douglas MacArthur, architect of the Interplanetary Phenomenon Unit, master minded the ingenious Inchon Landing. This amphibious assault by combined US forces in an area considered virtually impossible to stage such an assault upon was responsible for routing the North Korean army and changing the entire momentum of the war in favor of the allies who had been nearly driven into the sea at one point.

Ep.91 FADE to BLACK Jimmy Church w/ Linda Moulton Howe UFO LIVE on air
Ep.91 FADE to BLACK Jimmy Church w/ Linda Moulton Howe UFO LIVE on air
This documentary is quite instructive, but one must note it has been made by John Lundberg, Mark Pilkington and Jon Ronson (who was the guy that got Alex Jones into Bohemian Grove a few years back) - who are "limited hangout" or outright debunkers.
The video mainly discusses the case of Paul Benewitz - see http://www.richplanet.net/detail.php?dbindex=13 and how he was targeted for disinformation operation by Richard Doty and others - with tragic results. (Doty seems proud of the work he did if you watch the video.) There is also some stuff about Bill Moore, who kind of "disappeared" from the UFO scene in the late 80s after admitting he agreed to put of disinfo into the UFO research community.
Oddly, the title on this YouTube posting doesn't seem to match the actual video - Linda Moulton Howe is interviewed, though.
Note how much they talk about disinfo and mythology and not about evidence. (Pilkington can't seem to resist the opportunity to use the words "UFO Mythology" and similar phrases. These guys are more interested in the disinfo than the truth.
One wonders where they got the money to make this - as it's well shot, well-edited and well-presented for a YouTube documentary.
UFO mania: Military Eyewitness Captures 'Transparent UFO' On Night Vision
UFO mania: Military Eyewitness Captures 'Transparent UFO' On Night Vision
A "low, slow, silent, see-through triangle" was videotaped in the sky above Leland, North Carolina, on the night of May 13, 2014.
The man who taped the event -- an alleged military combat instructor who prefers to remain anonymous -- reported it in August to MUFON, the Mutual UFO Network, where it's listed as case #58923 and is still under investigation.
Here is part of the witness description as reported to MUFON:
I was looking through [night vision] goggles and noticed a 'plane' coming toward me from the north, heading south. It was relatively low, 5,000 feet or a little less. I'm pretty good at estimating distances, I'm an experienced skydiver and long-distance shooter. I thought it was a little weird that I wasn't hearing it coming toward me, so I started recording on the PVS-14 [night vision monocular].
As I'm watching it, I notice that as it's passing stars, I could see stars through the craft! I saw stars through the 'fuselage' of the craft! Later, I confirmed this when I reviewed the video.
Watch the object in night vision here. The witness description continues below.
The craft was in the shape of a triangle. There were two lights at the rear of the vehicle, circular, with a blinking light, also circular, almost between them, just a little above the two rear lights. The light in front was shaped like a triangle itself, with a small, round light right behind it. So all together: five lights. This thing was low and slow and silent!!
The last weird thing that I noticed was that, when I took the goggles down for a second to get a bearing as to where it was in the sky, I couldn't see any of the lights, not the fixed lights, not the single blinking light. I couldn't see it without night vision goggles.

There is more to Stonehenge than meets a visitor’s eye.
Researchers have produced digital maps of what’s beneath the World Heritage Site, using ground-penetrating radar, high-resolution magnetometers and other techniques to peer deep into the soil beneath the famous stone circle.
The project produced detailed maps of 17 previously unknown ritual monuments and a huge timber building, which is thought to have been used for burial ceremonies, Birmingham University said Wednesday.
“New monuments have been revealed, as well as new types of monument that have previously never been seen by archaeologists,” said Professor Vincent Gaffney, the project leader.
The project also discovered big prehistoric pits, some of which appear to be aligned with the sun, and new information on Bronze Age, Iron Age and Roman settlements and fields, the university said.
Professor Wolfgang Neubauer of the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Archaeological Prospection and Virtual Archaeology in Vienna says the new maps makes it possible “for the first time, to reconstruct the development of Stonehenge and its landscape through time.”
Archaeologists and others have been digging and theorizing at Stonehenge since the 1620s. The monument, 85 miles southwest of London, attracts more than 1.2 million visitors a year — including, last week, President Barack Obama.
The universities of Nottingham, Bradford and St. Andrews in the U.K., and the University of Ghent in Belgium were also involved in the project. – AP
I had two abductions. One in 1974 and the other in East Texas 1996. I know 1974 was long ago, but I didn’t want people to think I was crazy and have held this inside for many years and only now feel like I can tell. I was 26, married, had 4 children. It was about 7pm, dark, winter time, I was driving home and felt like someone was watching me. I couldnt shake the feeling. I had to calm myself down. And then, I was at home. That confused me. I went on to bed that night, not remembering the fear I had earlier of someone following me. Suddenly, I was awake and staring into the big black eyes of a creature, standing on my right side. His arms were long and he was just skinny and a grey appearance. I tried to scream, but couldnt. Nor could I move. I could see my husband sleeping in my peripheral view. As I said, the creature was at my right side, and three others, much smaller standing at the foot of the bed. I felt like the one at my right, was some kind of instructor and the three were learning from him. They seemed a little afraid of me and huddled close. Then the one close to me spoke to my mind and I understood his thoughts. He said, “I wont hurt you, and you wont ever remember this.” Then, he took an instrument like a pen with a light and touched my upper groin area. It was then, I remember being naked. And as he ran this pen object down from my groin, and down my upper thigh, I started screaming from the pain, only no sounds were coming out. I screamed for my husband to wake up and help me. It felt like the object was pulling all of my tissue out of my leg, extracting everything away. He took the object to my right above my knee and pulled it away. He was right, the next morning, I remembered nothing. But I started having nightmares. They were all the same; a huge black spider coming down his web from the ceiling to hurt me. I would jump out of bed, screaming, and take whatever object that was near me and start swinging, screaming, “get away from me!” My husband, of course, would wake up and try to to calm me down. He was clearly shaken by this strange behavior of mine. It frightened him. After the third nightmare, and reaction to it being the same; I then remembered. I was terrified, and worried that if I told my husband he would think I went insane. So I said nothing. After remembering, the nightmares ended.
The second one was when I lived in East Texas. I was 48. I was at home alone asleep. My husband a truck driver was gone. I woke up and saw flashing red, yellow, blue, green lights in a circled pattern in my front yard. I was watching them from my bed. The pattern seemed to be going around a dark disk shape. Suddenly, I wasnt in my bed anymore but on a steel oblong table. The same grey (instructor Ill call him) spoke to me telepathically, “I wont hurt you.” I spoke back telepathically, “thats what you said to me the last time. You lied.” There were other greys around the table 4-5 watching. He took out an instrument and ran it slowly over my brain like doing a massage. It was shaped like a pen also with a light. As he moved the pen to different areas of my brain, the sensation was so euphoric, I really didn’t want him to stop. I never experienced such sensation. Then when he was done, he spoke again, “See, I told you so.” And as odd as it seemed, it looked like he was pleased in my response. And strangely, as well, I wasnt afraid any more of him. My first two husbands passed away without me telling about this. My third husband I told, but he just cant believe it. There is a friend who found out about my story, and he was ecstatic. He also is a believer and had several visitations. It felt so good to be around other people who have experienced an encounter with aliens. I have no proof except I have osteoporosis, had 3 hip replacements. The right hip had to have another one only three years later. The doctor said, I just didn’t have enough bone. I wonder if it wasnt from the first abduction on my right leg. I wish I had more evidence. If I get to meet this instructor again, I feel in my inner being, he would let me ask questions. But thanks for being out there for all of us who have had the experience. It is such a relief, to know we are not crazy. ps my occupation: Retired register nurse. – MUFON CMS
Buddhist monk to ‘spontaneously combust’ through meditation
Monk Luang Pu Pim has told his followers that he is going to effectively meditate himself to death.
The 65-year-old, believing that it is his time to die, reportedly lay down in a wooden coffin and entered a trance-like state from which he has claimed he will bring about his own demise.
Pim, who is the abbott of Thailand’s Wat Weruwan temple, has also stated that in the event that he does die, which he expects will happen as early as Thursday, his body and the coffin it rests in will both spontaneously combust.
The coffin, which has several holes in the sides to enable him to breath, has been placed outside of his living quarters where several of his followers have come to meditate.
His daughter, Chanakarn Srisombat, claims that her father had previously experienced a brush with death when he allegedly died while in a cave but was brought back to life by a miracle.
Exactly what will happen this time however remains to be seen. Read more at Daily Mail

The foregoing may be ludicrous to some or charming fantasy to others. However, plans for a human-built worldlet were put forth a long time ago: Project Hyperion posited the creation of an “asteroid starship” to follow the discovery of possible inhabitable worlds by the Daedalus probe (conceived by the British Interplanetary Society decades ago). The guidelines for hollowing out an asteroid use science fiction as a blueprint – a concept employed by science fiction writer Larry Niven – which involves drilling into an asteroid with powerful laser beams of a kind we have yet to develop. Water tanks would be inserted into the cavity, which would be sutured, and the asteroid would be made to spin “like a pig on a spit” using ion-drive engines mounted on the structure's equator (http://www.icarusinterstellar.org/project-hyperion-the-hollow-asteroid-starship-dissemination-of-an-…).
It could have been a scene out of a motion picture: the citizens of a small South American city, enjoying the warm summer night at open-air cafés and entertainment areas. The heat, according to the local press, was the reason for so many people being awake as two o’clock in the morning, looking for cool drinks and ice cream to make the situation more bearable.
This then, was the situation in the city of Joaquin V. Gonzalez – named after the Argentinean senator and chancellor of the University of La Plata – when a “strange, gigantic luminous creature, elongated and weightless” appeared in the dark skies, lighting everything around it and under it. The apparition was described in the media as a “UFO mothership” or “cigar-shaped UFO with intermittent flashing lights and a fixed red beacon”. The bemused onlookers saw the majestic and terrifying structure make its way south toward the community of El Tunal before their community was plunged into a blackout.
An article in the November 26 2009 edition of Diario Popular added that a two hundred square mile area had been affected by the power outage as a result of the unusual phenomenon. UFO researcher Luis Burgos stated the object was “what we call a mothership, a sort of space aircraft carrier measuring no less than 200-300 meters (roughly 600 -900 feet) long, and which usually issues smaller UFOs measuring between 8 and 10 meters in size, which later return to the [mothership].” Burgos found corroboration for the event in a sequence of photographs taken two days earlier, showing a spindle-shaped object. “Our correspondent in the town of the town of Comandante Luis Piedrabuena, in the province of Santa Cruz, has sent us an exceptional document showing a mothership that flew over the outskirts of that southern locality of our country. This “phantom UFO” was picked up by resident Jose Acosta as he took photos of his property, located 15 kilometers west of Piedrabuena and in the vicinity of the Santa Cruz River, at 1600 hours on November 24, 2009. According to calculations made by our analyst, Jorge Luis Figueiras, the object is at a distance of 7 kilometers and is among the typical cloud formations of the country, having an approximate altitude of 4000 meters. This gives the alleged airship a length of between 80- 100 meters (250-330 feet).”
The mysterious “mothership” reappeared over the city of Joaquin V. Gonzalez on December 19, 2009 during the day, interrupting cell phone and internet service around five o’clock in the evening.
Other “motherships” had been reported in Argentinean cases, such as the 1990 event in Necochea on the Atlantic Ocean. On Sunday, 29 April of that year, a spindle-shaped object was seen by dozens who described it as a “flying cigar”. The object flew silently over the coastline and vanished into the sea after heading south. Curiously enough, the sighting also occurred at five o’clock in the evening.
“Please God, don’t let this fall down, or it’ll destroy the world!”
This was the thought that crossed the mind of Antolín Medina in the wee hours of March 20, 1980. Medina was a part-time cab driver who had just completed a fare in the vicinity of Lugo in Spain’s northwestern corner. His story, featured in Marcelino Requejo’s OVNIS: Alto Secreto recounts a man’s chilling encounter with a gigantic spaceship.
As he drove along Route N-540 on a crystal clear spring night, Medina had just driven past the As Lamelas power substation when he felt a growing feeling of pressure in his chest, coupled with a sensation of static electricity in the air. Distressed, he pulled the vehicle over and got out, suddenly unable to breathe. Insensibly, his eyes drifted upward to look at the night sky, and were rewarded by a shocking scene: A huge, dark triangular object hung silently some two hundred feet overhead.
“I was stunned as I looked at it, and I remember thinking: Please God, don’t let this fall down, or it’ll destroy the world! It was so large, and since it made no noise, one couldn’t imagine how it kept itself aloft. I thought about what would happen if it suddenly crashed. It was solid, metallic, dark grey in color and truly impressive, beyond being merely large. It had some sort of nozzles on each of its corners, dark yellow in color. I watched it for nearly a minute and suddenly, the nozzles lit up three at a time, issuing a bluish-white light, very intense, but making no noise at all.”
According to the bewildered onlooker, the massive object tilted to the right, allowing him to make out its configuration: an equilateral triangle measuring 1800 meters (5900 feet) per side. “I’m not exaggerating,” Medina insisted. “It was right above me and one of the vertexes covered the town of Piedrafita, which is two kilometers distant in a straight line from where I stood.”
A science fiction filmmaker would have had the mountainous object rev up its engines to a deafening degree, bathe the protagonist in actinic light, and take off toward uncharted regions. What actually happened in Medina’s case was the object leaped skyward silently, turning into a distant point of light before vanishing altogether.
A triangular UFO measuring nearly six thousand feet should be considered among the largest unidentified objects ever reported, but Marcelino Requejo’s archives held one more surprise: a 1989 report involving a spherical mothership. Two guards assigned to the security detail of the Endesa power station outside A Coruña had been told to keep an eye on Monte de Muras – a hill whose high voltage towers were possible targets for terrorist activity.
The security officers positioned their vehicles in such a way that they could command the view of three hundred thousand volt lines that provided energy for the Alcoa plant in San Cibrao. Around five o’clock in the morning, one of the guards pointed out the presence of a group of yellow lights traveling in a row beyond the power grid. They then noticed a similar formation coming up on the other side of the hill, at some two hundred feet over the transmission towers.
“That’s when we realized that the sky was being covered by something very large, as it hid the stars as it moved,” said the main witness, who gave his name only as Carlos. “We got out of our cars and it was then that we could clearly see what was going on. It was truly incredible, inconceivable! The dark mass passing over our heads and the rows of lights flying over the high voltage lines were part of the same object. It was gigantic, hard to describe in mere words. The rows of yellow lights were the edges of that object!”
There was a distance of more than half a mile between each power line, which helped the onlookers get a better idea of the massive proportions of the craft. “It reminded me of outer space movies, where the giant ships have many compartments and protuberances underneath them. We looked behind it to get an idea of what it looked like, but the shape became lost in the distance. It looked like a giant rugby ball. It was over half a mile wide, so you can imagine how long it was. It was in excess of one mile long.”
The witness was very specific about the details: the object made no sound whatsoever, the only noise that evening being the strong prevailing winds. It did not change course and flew slowly, an estimated sixty kilometers an hour (short of 40 mph), taking a full twenty minutes to cover “the twenty two kilometer distance in a straight line to Ría de Viveiro.” Once the object reached the sea, it disgorged two white spheres down a column of light that projected into the water. One of these objects flew inland at dizzying speed, flying over the security guards. The colossal mothership eventually began to sway from one side to another, shooting skyward at a prodigious rate of speed.
Conclusion
One is reminded of the timeless illustration of the smaller fish being eaten by progressively larger fishes. Here we have it in reverse – the relatively small flying objects reported by tens of thousands of witnesses worldwide over the past sixty years, those which have been seen on the ground, the motherships that carry them (unless they are simply “traveling dimensional doorways” capable of delivering a payload to a specific location), perhaps even larger motherships that carry the motherships, and ultimately the planet-sized objects they hail from.
(N.Morgan) There was an incredible UFO sighting in Jerseyville, Illinois September 9th, 2014. As you can see in the video and the photos, there was more than one and they are very odd looking and seem to stay in one place. Many have been pondering the meaning of all of these sightings that have been taking place, as of late. Is this some sort of galactic feeling that something big is about to occur? You can see there’s a storm on the horizon and one must wonder if that was the attraction for this visit. Was it the storm that brought them in?
1. What was your interstellar gooey inspiration and motivation for creating your new book, “The Sci-Fi Movie Guide The Universe of Film from Alien to Zardoz”?
The inspiration for the book was highly Earth-bound. I’ve been a film critic for many years and a sci-fi fan for most of my life. So when Visible Ink asked me if I wanted to update this book, which was first published back in 1997, I jumped at the opportunity
2. Loving the book thus far and have found a lot of titles I’ve never heard of. What are some obscure films in here that some may have never heard of that you would recommend from your perspective?
A couple of the lesser-known sci-fi gems that I covered in the book and are well worth seeking out are: “Sound of My Voice” (2000), about a filmmaking couple who go undercover in a cult to unmask their leader, a beautiful woman who claims to be from the future, but end up questioning their own beliefs; and “A Scanner Darkly” (2006), Richard Linklater’s creepy trippy animated take on the Philip K. Dick novel about police-state surveillance and schizophrenia.
3. I saw Chopping Mall the other day and loved it. What are some other movies in that vein that you can share with us?
Maybe the highly weird “Night of the Comet” (1984). It has less of the slasher-flick vibe to it, but plays around with some of the same Valley Girl shtick. Plus: zombies!
4. What are some great alien invasion films and aliens possessing bodies flicks that you can discuss with us?
John Carpenter did two of the best: his remake of “The Thing” (1982) and “They Live” (1987). Both are supposedly about invasions by other species but are really highly intelligent, skin-crawling metaphors about humanity’s penchant for self-destruction.
5. I enjoyed the Frankenstein movies in the book. Here lately I’ve had a Frankenstein fetish. It used to be Dracula but now Frankenstein. Would you talk to us about Frankenstein films?
Every robot-gone-bad or computer-gone-bad story is at its heart a Frankenstein story. It’s the same lesson about mankind’s hubris and desire to play God. Whether it’s monsters being created out of stolen corpses or artificial intelligences launching nuclear missiles, I don’t think we’ll ever get tired of seeing stories about the dangers of technology.
6. I love Terry Gilliam films and I was wondering if you could get into Brazil with us and your interpretation of that film?
That’s a pretty big question. Brazil is simply put one of the most stunning, darkly comedic, heart-rending stories ever put on screen. Unfortunately for Gilliam, it came a little too early in his career. I think he said everything he needed to say with that movie and everything since then has felt somewhat repetitive.
7. This is a wild card question. What films would you like to talk about from your book that we haven’t discussed yet?
There have been a lot of exciting sci-fi films being released over the past few years, and not just the junky teen dystopia films (Hunger Games, Divergent, etc.). “Cloud Atlas,” “Coherence,” “It’s a Disaster.”
8. What are you up to next book wise or projects wise and also any links you’d like to share? Thank you for this interview.
I have a mystery novel I’m working on that’s tentatively titled “Wait for Yesterday.” Also, in January I’ll be publishing the 2014 edition of my annual “Eyes Wide Open” film guide series.
Eyes Wide Open 2013: The Year’s 25 Greatest Movies (and the 5 Worst) – Kindle edition by Chris Barsanti. Humor & Entertainment Kindle eBooks @ Amazon.com.
High on Mt. Ararat in eastern Turkey, there is a baffling mountainside “anomaly,” a feature that one researcher claims may be something of biblical proportions.
Whatever it is, the anomaly of interest rests at 15,300 feet (4,663 meters) on the northwest corner of Mt. Ararat, and is nearly submerged in glacial ice. It would be easy to call it merely a strange rock formation.
Insight Magazine and Space Imaging (now GeoEye) have established a collaborative research project using IKONOS satellite, this satellite has captured some extraordinary images in 2000, GeoEye was reconstructed images it on the computer (it’s near the 15 minute mark in the video below). The following photographs are intended to serve a similar project was widely publicized in 2006.
Mount Ararat area also is the satellite SPOT, Landsat France, NASA’s space shuttle and military satellites, such as KH-9 and KH-11 shooting from the 70s to 90s National Intelligence Agency room saying anomaly shows “face front slot was filled by glaciers and snow.”
In 2006, national security analyst Porcher Taylor informed American satellite captured foreign objects in the northwest of the mountain, he believes it is the remnants of the ship Noah.
The picture below shows the Hong Kong investigation team is investigating what they call structural evidence for the existence of Noah’s ark on Mount Ararat. No picture taken outside the ship and the investigation team refused to disclose the exact location until the Turkish government designate where archaeological work
This photo was taken the survey team wood walls inside the boat. One person in the group said: “I’m not 100% sure this is Noah’s ark, but I think potentially it is 99.9%.”
Beams that explorers say they have found at the site. The search for the rest of the Noah’s Ark physics has held a fascination for Christians, Jews and Muslims for hundreds of years. However, despite various claims no scientific evidence has ever been found

Highest Ranking NSA Whistle-Blower Of All Time Addresses The UFO Question – See What He Had To Say
Highest Ranking NSA Whistle-Blower Of All Time Addresses The UFO Question – See What He Had To Say
Just as Edward Snowden made huge headlines (and still is) all over the world, William Binney did the same in 2001 when he resigned from the National Security Agency (NSA) after 9/11 and blew the lid on an NSA mass surveillance program.
He worked for the agency for more than thirty years, and was the leading code-breaker against the Soviet Union during the Cold War. He’s had quite the run, starting in 2002 when he let the public know of a system ( ‘trailblazer’) intended to analyze data carried on communication networks (like the internet). He exposed the agencies eavesdropping program and has faced harassment from the FBI, NSA and more. He has been in and out of the court room ever since he decided to resign and blow the whistle.
Here is a quick Wiki write up about him, a simple Google search will confirm who he is for those who have never heard of him.
Binney was recently interviewed on 9/11 Free Fall Radio, where he said:
“We selectively ignore basic facts. What I mean by a basic fact is something that’s just there that needs to be addressed, even if they can’t explain it they should have said “we can’t explain this but it’s there” so they at least recognize that this basic fact existed. My problem is, just like the UFO thing, unless they start addressing these kinds of things, peoples observations or basic measurements or factual evidence that simply exists, unless they start addressing them there’s always going to be questions, especially now with the government, how much trust do you have with this government? They’ve been spying, putting whistle blowers in jail, torturing, and giving immunity to people who commit these kinds of crimes, how much trust can you put in a government like that? When you selectively ignore these kinds of things…..”
It’s great to hear someone who had such a long career with the NSA mention UFOs (although many high ranking defence personnel have made remarkable statements), and the importance of governments addressing the phenomenon that is flooded with “people’s observations” and “factual evidence.” Clearly, Binney is aware of the phenomenon and the seriousness of the issue.
UFOs and extraterrestrial life is one of the most popular questions of our time. In the United States alone, at least half of all Americans say that we’re not alone in the universe. Fifty percent of Americans already believe that there is some form of life on other planets, while only seventeen percent think that there isn’t. A quarter of Americans believe that intelligent extraterrestrial visitors have already come to Earth and have been doing so for a long time.(source)
Will North American Governments Ever Properly Address The UFO Phenomenon?
Binney brings up a great point, and for him to put UFOs and “factual evidence” in the same category was great and very brave of him.
The NSA (for example) has released files that clearly indicate their interest in the UFO phenomenon, HERE is one example, and HERE is another, documenting in detail an encounter military jets had with a UFO when they were ordered to go take a look at them. (common phenomenon).
I still wouldn’t call releasing these files properly addressing the questions and concerns of the people. Dozens of other governments around the world have released thousands of previously classified UFO documentation, yet important questions still remain that they have not addressed. To see an example from the UK, click HERE.
The release of these files indicate that governments and defense agencies have documented studies and allocated resources to studying the UFO phenomenon, and have kept the fact that they are doing so a secret for avery long time. You can be sure that a lot of information on the subject probably still remains heavily classified. They are holding all of this information, and have gathered so much of it yet we don’t have any access to it.
It’s not a secret that governments keep secrets, the United States alone classifies approximately 500 million pages of documents every year, and the release of previously classified information is a great example of that.
So will North American governments ever properly address the UFO phenomenon? I don’t know, but the information is leaking out there regardless. Again, they’ve been studying and gathering information on this phenomenon for decades, and they have access to information and data that we don’t, and that’s not fair.
Here’s something to think about:
“If you have a big secret, that you want the world to know about, you may not want to throw it out there all at once. In other words, there may be some kind of slow acculturation process, I think there is probably something like that going on. I think there is a lot of disinformation going on as well.” –Richard Dolan, Author, Historian
“I don’t believe we will ever truly be ready for disclosure, but that will never stop it from happening. Who’s ever ready to have their first child? Nobody, they have it anyway. It will be forced upon the political leaders and it will be a big mess. Anytime you have some sort of growth, whether it’s personal spiritual growth, or political growth in this society, that means you shed illusions, you shed lies, and that’s a difficult prices, and we have to go through that process. There are many billions of people on this world who are attached to a certain paradigm, a certain way of picturing the world, and disclosure will just shatter that. So it will be difficult, but the alternative is being spoon fed lies the rest of your life.” Richard Dolan (same source as above quote)
From everything I’ve looked into, there are some within the world of secrecy that want the truth to come out, and others who want it to remain.
“There is abundant evidence that we are being contacted, that civilizations have been monitoring us for a very long time. That their appearance is bizarre from any type of traditional materialistic western point of view. That these visitors use the technologies of consciousness, they use toroids, they use co-rotating magnetic disks for their propulsion systems, that seems to be a common denominator of the UFO phenomenon” - Dr. Brian O’leary, Former NASA Astronaut and Princeton Physics Professor
“Decades ago, visitors from other planets warned us about the direction we were heading and offered to help. Instead, some of us interpreted their visits as a threat, and decided to shoot first and ask questions after. Trillions of dollars have been spent on black projects which both congress and the commander in chief have deliberately been kept in the dark.”- Paul Hellyer, Former Canadian Defense Minister
Whether our governments agree to properly address the issue and share with us the information they’ve accumulated over the years or not, the answers will come in the form of whistleblowers, leaked documents (like wikileaks) or something else.

Within a blackness, a voice, intoning, resonant and deep, over and over and over:
"What a beautiful child, such a lovely child."
"What a lovely child, such a beautiful child."
Over and over and over, again.
Suddenly, I am drawn to a parade.
Moving swiftly forward, striding, I can see the popcorn strewn sidewalk beneath my feet and I can smell cotton candy cloying sweetness wafting in the breeze.
Just ahead, an excited blare of trumpets, a murmur of deeply lined crowds and a growing but yet still distant tattoo of drums, combine to urge and propel me forward.
I am holding hands, pulling along two children,one in each hand, as I rush forward, expectantly eager,
with an urgency that these two very small children experience the brassy, colorful thrill, of a parade.
In my right hand is the palm of a human child, perhaps five years old, a child wiry and muscular with blond hair and bluest eyes, a robust human child.
In my other hand, I grasp a small, withered hand, one of an odd looking, frail, non-human child, with black almond-shaped eyes and very long, skinny arms and legs, a sickly, tubular creature-child, who struggles but who can't keep up.
I sweep this odd child up onto my shoulders to let it see ahead and to carry it ; I feel its joy as a strong psychic wave..
I look again, curious and more critical.
It is a handicapped, ailing entity, sadly listless and lifeless.
A facsimile look alike of the cartoon character, Gumby, its long grey arms and legs seem useless appendages, a long tubular shaped Gumby child, listless, ill and with no vitality.
I stare in amazement, clearly disgusted.
The scene changes, as does the perspective.
I am now looking down at this same grey tubular, now diapered child, laying on a bed.
I hear that same deep resonant voice repeatedly suggest that I change its diaper.
In truth, I was never an eager changer of diapers with my own babies, choosing sometimes to neglectfully leave a fully ripe and pungent baby for their mother to change, who was due home at any moment!
I recoil at the suggestion to nurture and care for it by changing its dirty diaper..
Both the creature and its toilet needs repulse me, as I examine it more closely.
I awaken in bed, suddenly aware that the word, "dreams", used to describe abduction's surreal otherworldly ness, is an impotent word, in our language,
a problem with our language's inability to describe the experience in any other way.
"What a beautiful child!", as a phrase, recalled by tens of thousands of abductees the world over, clearly appears to be a phrase in an alien scripted scenario, in attempts to have offspring reunited with their somatic abductee parents for nurturing, as these hybrids seem to be expiring.
A painful thought arouses a dawning idea; that ethereal child is possibly of my spirit, blood and flesh.
And that's what abductions are all about, creating offspring, blending two very different species of beings (““ "All truth passes through three (3) stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident." – Arthur Schopenhauer ””)
These hybrids have been acquired, precisely, in the same way, as we practice animal husbandry.
Abductions prevail and we are Manchurian candidates of stellar proportions.
Mass abductions, the taking of many people in an area at the same time, involves folding time and space in a manner beyond belief so that no time missed is noticed by abductees.
Time is a quaint variable, like gravity, both of which aliens have exploited in ways that we can only faintly imagine.
When UFO craft suddenly wink out, vanish and then reappear, in the exact same spot, they have actually traveled in time and returned.
I refuse to acknowledge this agreement, as this particular personality of mine has been purposely made aware of these intrusions and as such, reflect a clear violation of spiritual rights, in their continuing.
I have dragged my feet and refused cooperation.
They change tactics and redouble their efforts.
I have enlisted spiritual help from the same dimension that they use to enter our physical one, and they lend demons into the equation as spite work, muddling the picture.
I tell myself that I will remember, and vague and vivid snippets remain which I can unfurl at leisure, by worrying the edges of the snippet.
What happened just before and just after the recalled snippet of memory will intrude slowly, until a fuller grasp entails.
They are careful to give me screen memories that mask events onboard craft, screen memories dreamlike in nature.
Often, they wrap me in general blackness so that I awake with nosebleeds, scoop marks and exhaustion without vivid remnants to recall.
But the screen memories are so aligned with their negative thoughts that the scenarios reveal that they are imposed, by virtue of their worst scenario plots and their vividness.
They are masters of delusions and can have one dreaming a snug little dream while they march one around their craft for various purposes, and most abductees, the world over, are none the wiser.
...............................
I resent and frustrate their entrances, approaches and goals when I resist and their tempers ill befit the advanced technology that they have.
Since they primarily wait until one is in REM sleep, lucid dreaming works well to detect and interact with them and is worth all the trouble it takes to master techniques of lucid dreaming.
It is hard to imagine the human hardships and brutal dilemmas in human history orchestrated by these alien puppet masters.
I program myself to subliminally repeat,"I will no longer participate in these alien endeavors", only to find that in sleep I am shaken forcibly by a dark demonic entity as strong as a bull, who says," You will do as you're TOLD!"
Prayer works, like a pesticide, only if it is effective and is repetitious.
While none of the standard appeals to saints and to Jesus works, repeating the word, " GOD", over and over, can set up a different vibration level that could instantly end an astral abduction, if one only had the presence of mind.
That's where lucid dreaming comes in.
One of Heaven's most engaged with efficacy against evil, is Archangel St. Michael; sincere and fervent requests for his support in our battles against unseen evil will often bring immediate temporary respite.
We are not alone or simply watched with benign neglect, by Heaven.
Never fear, as they feed ethereally from negative fears.
Love them away and they'll be puzzled enough to sit down and think things over before they come again.
Remember that creeping anxiety is the signature symptom of their psychic intrusion and that if you feel that fear building, they're already inside.
Panic attacks are the soul's reaction to demonic intrusions into the psyche.
Treat the creepy anxiety as though it were a person and order it away in the name of God; you'll see that the feeling abates instantly, but like yellow jacket wasps at at a picnic cola, they unerringly try again, over and over.
Fighting them is a 24 hour 365 day job from now on.
During abductions, the human brain is somehow detached from the front of the brain, where one's shoe can hang before one's eyes but one cant discern just precisely what it is.
That's what looking out of the craft's window and seeing the Earth, the Moon, nebulae and stars was like, precisely stated.
The perspective was waking to find that I was asleep, wrapped in delusional thoughts and scenes.
I later discovered that these entities always just outside of sight, were keeping me and a host of others during a mass abduction, on short, psychic, surreal leashes of control while manipulating us around the craft for various purposes.
The psychic nature of these entities is most uncannily canny and most who experience an abduction will not ever recall being inside an alien craft or will dismiss any vivid flashbacks as dreams.
My only clue, was awakening with the joy of recalling a dream about an intricate gorgeous wood inlayed staircase that had brought me a sweet rapture.
Unfurling backwards the events around that joy at seeing an ornate wood staircase revealed that my rapture of that staircase had been an alien ploy
to erase my memory and to cloud my recollections of my genuine awe, in seeing the Earth and the Moon, stars and nebulae outside that craft's window.
By making a simple metal staircase the unrightful recipient of a much more powerfully imposed 'awe', by turning the delusion's volume up too dramatically, a mind controlling screen memory failed and ultimately backfired for the controlling, mind reading entity who imposed it.
There is still much more to be remembered.
Abductions and their remnant elusive memories have opened all this for Paul, a confirmed atheist, UNTIL Paul saw aliens float him out of his body, in his bed, at night.
Then, he knew that they were interested in an essence that he never suspected that he had, a nonphysical soul.
Our spiritual powers that interest and addict interdimensionals are the very powers that can be used to thwart further attacks.
They infect auras with attachments to themselves and ride the reincarnation roller coaster with human beings, as a sanctuary, to avoid the death that they fear and to steal the spiritual recycling that we have.
Souls are garnered, detoured from our natural spiritual evolution in Heaven.
These joyriding grays can be sinister, discorporate alien souls, stuck to our energies, who bring a new meaning to the concept of a silent invasion.
Stonehenge. Photograph: Geert Verhoeven/University of Bi/PA
Stonehenge stood at the heart of a sprawling landscape of chapels, burial mounds, massive pits and ritual shrines, according to an unprecedented survey of the ancient grounds.
Researchers uncovered 17 new chapels and hundreds of archaeological features around the neolithic standing stones on Salisbury Plain, Wiltshire, including forms of monuments that have never been seen before.
Brought together for the first time in a digital map of the historic site, the discoveries transform how archaeologists view a landscape that was reshaped by generations for hundreds of years after the first stones were erected around 3100BC.
"This radically changes our view of Stonehenge," said Vince Gaffney, head of the Stonehenge Hidden Landscapes Project at Birmingham University. "In the past we had this idea that Stonehenge was standing in splendid isolation, but it wasn't … it's absolutely huge."
He added that around Stonehenge people created "their own shrines and temples. We can see the whole landscape is being used in very complex ways".
The finds follow the discovery, made public early this month, that the monument was originally circular. Researchers said that an insufficiently long hosepipe might have helped them solve one of the enduring mysteries of Stonehenge: whether the monument was originally built as a full circle or a C-shape.

The hosepipe was used to water grass around the stones, but when it failed to reach parts of the monument patches of brown began to appear. Tim Daw, who helps to maintain the site, noticed that the patches matched spots where missing stones may have stood, making Stonehenge a full circle. The discovery has prompted a fresh mystery around what happened to the missing stones.
Researchers on the surrounding landscape project spent four years surveying 12 sq km of land around Stonehenge. They covered much of the ground on quad bikes hooked up to trailers carrying an array of technologies to detect structures hidden beneath the ground.
Using ground-penetrating radar and other equipment, they located two massive pits in a 3km-long monument called the Cursus that predates Stonehenge and lies to the north. The pits appear to form astronomical alignments, Gaffney said. On midsummer's day the eastern pit's alignment with the rising sun, and the western pit's alignment at sunset, intersect at the point where Stonehenge was built 400 years later.
"The importance is not that we found yet another set of strange archaeological monuments, but that they have a spatial relationship with Stonehenge," Gaffney told the British Science festival in Birmingham. Traces of another festival were found at Stonehenge in the form of ancient beer pots that drinkers left lying around.
The equipment used in the survey, including radar, laser scanners and magnetometers, was developed by engineers at the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute in Vienna and allowed researchers to map details of the monuments to a resolution of 10cm. The radar technology revealed features up to three metres underground.
One of the most striking monuments to emerge from the survey was a 33 metre-long burial mound containing a massive wooden building whose timber foundations – and a giant upright blocking its entrance – were spotted in the soil. Predating Stonehenge, the building is thought to have been a house of the dead where bizarre burial rituals were played out. "The rituals included exposure of the dead bodies, and defleshing on a large forecourt," said Wolfgang Neuber, at the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute. The house was later covered in chalk and finally became a curious white landmark.

Another large monument north-east of Stonehenge is Durrington Walls, a huge superhenge nearly 500 metres wide. The survey revealed an early stage in the construction of the monument when an impressive row of around 70 massive stones or posts, each perhaps three metres tall, were lined up along its southern border.
The stones or posts were apparently pushed over or laid flat and some may still be found in the ground. Gaffney favours them being pushed over in line with other evidence that ancient cultures were happy to dismantle their monuments. "They did lots of strange things. They killed monuments, changed them, reappropriated them. They developed over many hundreds of years, so the people who started them were not the people who finished them," he said.
The survey revealed more than the intriguing remnants of prehistoric settlements. Among the depressions the researchers mapped out were practice trenches dug around Stonehenge during the first world war where troops prepared for battle on the western front.

"Despite Stonehenge being the most iconic of all prehistoric monuments and occupying one of the richest archaeological landscapes in the world, much of this landscape in effect remains terra incognita," Gaffney said.
"The project has revealed that the area around Stonehenge is teeming with previously unseen archaeology and that the application of new technology can transform how archaeologists and the wider public understand one of the best-studied landscapes on Earth," he added.
Gaffney appears in a BBC2 series, Operation Stonehenge: What Lies Beneath, which starts at 8pm on Thursday.

Wetenschappers staan versteld van verborgen rijk onder Stonehenge
Wetenschappers staan versteld van verborgen rijk onder Stonehenge
Het monumentale Stonehenge in Engeland was vroeger veel groter. Onderzoekers staan versteld van de omvang die het bouwwerk moet hebben gehad. De Britse krant The Guardian schrijft dat nieuwe vondsten de kijk op Stonehenge volledig veranderen.
Wetenschappers van de Universiteit Gent hebben in Stonehenge 17 voorheen onbekende rituele monumenten, verdwenen grafheuvels en honderden prehistorische structuren ontdekt. De ontdekking is gedaan met geavanceerde bodemsensoren, meldt de UGent vandaag. Tijdens een internationaal persmoment presenteerde het team talrijke nieuwe vondsten.
Het beroemde stenen monument van Stonehenge blijkt te zijn omringd door een landschap dat veel meer prehistorische bodemsporen bevat dan eerder werd aangenomen. Door het statuut van Unesco Werelderfgoed heersen er strikte beperkingen op archeologische opgravingen.
In de afgelopen vier jaar voerden archeologen van de Universiteit van Birmingham en het Oostenrijkse Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Archaeological Prospection gedetailleerde bodemscans uit met magnetometers en grondradars. Deze metingen verliepen soms problematisch omdat de bodem in de voorbije eeuw geregeld sterk verstoord werd door onder meer muziekfestivals in de jaren zeventig en tachtig in de weiden rond het monument en de aanwezigheid van Britse militairen tijdens de Eerste Wereldoorlog.
Uit de nieuwe sensormetingen kwamen talrijke, voorheen onbekende bodemsporen van archeologische structuren aan het licht, waaronder restanten van 17 nieuwe rituele monumenten, verdwenen grafheuvels en talrijke kleinere structuren zoals opgevulde grachten, grote putten en perceelgrenzen.
“Zonder de bodem te verstoren zijn we in staat om nieuwe archeologische sporen te identificeren, zelfs in Stonehenge – sinds lange tijd één van de meest intens onderzochte archeologische sites ter wereld,” zei professor Marc Van Meirvenne.
De zender Science Channel gaat onderzoeken of buitenaardse beschavingen proberen ons kernwapenarsenaal uit te schakelen. In een aflevering van The Unexplained Files, die dinsdag is uitgezonden, kwamen onder meer voormalig luchtmachtofficier Robert Salas en Paul Stonehill aan het woord.
Over de hele wereld zijn hooggeplaatste militairen getuige geweest van UFO’s boven kerninstallaties, aldus Science Channel in een persverklaring. In sommige gevallen werden kernwapens uitgeschakeld op het moment dat de UFO’s boven de basis vlogen.
Getuigenissen van hoge militairen bevestigen dat er vreemde interventies waren tijdens nucleaire rampen. Het eerste bezoek van buitenaardsen zou dateren van 1948, maar sommige verhalen gaan maar tot 2003 terug.
De getuigen hebben het over buitenaards bezoek in de Verenigde Staten en Groot-Brittannië. De ruimtewezens zouden zelfs één keer geland zijn op een Britse basis. “Het gaat over onbekende vliegende objecten. De Amerikaanse luchtmacht liegt over de gevolgen van deze objecten voor de nationale veiligheid en wij kunnen het bewijzen,” aldus Salas.
Salas heeft op 16 maart 1967 naar eigen zeggen zelf buitenaardse wezens gezien op vliegbasis Malmstrom in Montana. “Ik had dienst toen het object boven de basis kwam zweven. En een week later gebeurde ergens anders hetzelfde. Ze hebben vooral interesse in onze raketten, waar ze ook vandaan komen. Ik denk persoonlijk dat ze niet van deze planeet afkomstig zijn.”
Hij kreeg het bevel er nooit met iemand over te praten. Salas wil inzicht geven in de manier waarop de militaire overheden omgingen met de incidenten.
By Greg May – Are victims of alien abductions actually taken aboard spacecraft?
Joe Jordan is a safety-specialist at Kennedy Space Center who became interested in the abduction phenomenon when he went through training as a state-section director for MUFON in 1992 in Orlando, Florida. Jordan was introduced to people attending monthly MUFON meetings claiming to be in contact with the ‘entities’ responsible for UFO sightings and told MUFON investigators “we can continue to chase our tails by looking at lights in the sky or we can focus on people who are in the front line – the abductees”.
According to Jordan ‘abductees’ aren’t taken aboard a ship, they are physically still in bed. He recalls a couple of cases where people had the abduction experience while in the presence of a witness who was awake. “They didn’t go anywhere. They almost went into an unconscious state. This was only for a few minutes, but they came out of it totally exhausted and could talk about what happened to them, and it would take hours for them to tell it at all,” Jordan explained to Nick Redfern in ‘The NASA Conspiracies’.
Jordan describes their experience ‘like a time-displacement’ and likens it to more of a ‘hallucination or apparition’: something along the lines of a hologram, “ but it’s still in the mind.” He believes the entities can create this experience in people’s minds and they interact with it, even leaving physical manifestations – “which makes it so confusing.”
Joe Jordan agrees with Christian evangelicals that UFOs and extraterrestrials are demonic entities created by Satan: “The purpose of all this is to deny the reality of Christianity. And, they have probably the best propaganda machine I’ve ever seen or read about.”
Someone once said the greatest trick Satan ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist.
Jordan points out that the ‘stories of old’ (fairy tales) of gnomes, fairies and elves wouldn’t be believed today so the demons come in a guise that we will accept. “But their purpose is to defeat us and to delude us, so that we will take our focus off the one true God. And if that happens, if the Bible is real, then the people who succumb to this – their souls are doomed. And I think that’s what these entities are trying to do. That’s their agenda. The demons know they’re doomed to Hell; the Bible teaches that is what will happen to them. But when that times comes, they plan on trying to take as many of God’s creation with them as they can. It’s a cosmic war”.
The New Age Movement’s ‘Intergalactic Belief’ teaches extraterrestrials will save humanity from the Apocalypse, but first a portion of the Earth’s population will be removed because their ‘vibes’ aren’t in-tune with the New Age. This will most- likely be the most accepted explanation world-wide for the disappearance of some 100 million believers in Jesus Christ when the Rapture occurs.

A New Jersey witness at Sayreville reported watching and photographing a diamond-shaped UFO moving at the treetop level, according to September 9, 2014, testimony in Case 59688 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The witness was outside with his dog at 7 a.m. on August 29, 2014 when an object in the northeast sky appeared to be a drone or someone playing with a remote control aircraft.

While it seemed early in the day for remote control aircraft, the witness decided to take out his cell phone and shoot three images of the object.
“The object was diamond-shaped but concave towards the bottom,” the witness stated. “The back almost looked like something out of a movie like it would have engines off the back only it wasn’t moving in the direction the engines were facing. I was able to see this object for about a full minute and-a-half to notice it had what looked to me like a glass area in the front side for observation.”
The witness believes that the object should have been picked up on radar.
“There was no sound; however, where I live is a very high commercial airline traffic area. I would be hard pressed to believe this would not

Sayreville is a borough located on the Raritan River, near Raritan Bay in Middlesex County, New Jersey, population 42,704. New Jersey MUFON is investigating.
New Jersey has a current UFO Alert Rating of 5 with a low number of recent reports nationally. New Jersey had 13 UFO reports in August 2014 – the 15th highest reporting state – while California had 99 reports as the highest reporting state. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.
The UFO Alert Rating System is based on five levels – 1 through 5 – where states with 150 or more reports for the month are rated an Alert 1; states with 100 or more reports are rated an Alert 2; 25 reports or more for the month are rated an Alert 3; 13 or more reports are rated an Alert 4; and those states with less than 13 reports for the month are an Alert 5.
A film company is looking for anyone who has seen Morag – the Loch Morar Monster – to take part in a documentary about Nessie’s less famous sister.
At more than 1,000ft, Loch Morar in Lochaber is Britain’s deepest body of freshwater.
And its waters are crystal clear due to the steep-sided walls of the surrounding hills, which means the rainfall does not become peat stained.
After the Loch Ness Monster, Morag is among the best known of Scotland’s legendary monsters, with sightings dating back to 1887.
These include 34 incidents by 1981 – 16 of which were reported by more than one person.
“A peculiar serpent-like creature about 20ft long” was reported by nine people in a boat in 1948, in the same place as the 1887 sighting.
And CMJ Productions, a Canadian production company based in Montreal, is now keen to speak to anyone with a tale to tell about Morag for a documentary it is making as part of a series called Boogeymen.
Researcher Elizabeth Grenier explained that they chose Morag because she was less well-known than Nessie.
She said: “We are going to places where the local monster did not necessarily turn into a tourist attraction.
“The monster serves as a way to discover the highlights, the history and the culture of a community.”
The film crew is due to visit the remote location in Lochaber from Thursday September 25 to Saturday September 27, but it is still looking for more people to take part in the programme.
Ms Grenier said: “I am looking for a local journalist or media analyst, who could comment on the way Morag has been covered by the local, national and international media.
“Eyewitnesses, believers, sceptics, historians or people who helped Elizabeth Montgomery-Campbell during her Loch Morar Survey in the 1970s and anyone who can add something to the story should also get in touch with me.”
The best known encounter with Morag was reported in 1969 when Duncan McDonnel and William Simpson claimed that their speedboat accidentally struck the creature, prompting her to hit back.
McDonnel is said to have retaliated with an oar while Simpson opened fire with his rifle. The monster then sank slowly out of sight.
They described her as being brown and 25-30 feet long, with rough skin and three humps on her back. – Press and Journal
In the 1990 film Ghost, Patrick Swayze wants to get his hands on former love Demi Moore.
In a modern-day home in South Yorkshire, a sexed-up spectre known as ‘Mark’ wants to get his hands on Deborah Rawson.
Mrs Rawson, 48, and her husband Kevin had happily lived together in their home in Hull for more than 20 years until Mark threatened to destroy their marriage.
She said she first encountered the perverted apparition after finishing the housework one day, describing Mark to be ‘a good-looking bloke in his 30s, in black trousers and a white shirt.’
Mr Rawson found his wife shaking outside the house hours after her ordeal. The visitations continued and increased in their sexual intensity.
Mrs Rawson explained: ‘He would pull at my dress and one time it felt as if he had pinned me down on the sofa.
‘Another night, as I was falling to sleep, the duvet flew off and I felt Mark’s hand on my thigh.’
Her husband witnessed none of these creepy night-time visits and it led to the couple sleeping in different rooms and then downstairs.
The couple had asked a Catholic priest for an exorcism and a local psychic to help them out before they moved into rented accommodation. – Metro
A Chicago mother of two was headed to lunch with her fiance in the city’s South Loop on Thursday when pieces of a gargoyle fell from a church’s facade and struck her in the head, killing her.
“I saw that crack on her head and thought, ‘She’s definitely dead,’” a witness who ran to help tells the Chicago Tribune.
Sarah Bean’s fiance, Lance Johnson, started screaming, the witness says, as he fell to the ground and held his hands to his head. Family members tell NBC Chicago the couple was due to marry soon; Johnson is the father of Bean’s two children, ages 10 and 14.
A piece of decorative metal several stories up came loose at the Second Presbyterian Church on South Michigan Avenue, and then knocked off a piece of stone from the gargoyle, which hit Bean. Officials say she was killed almost instantly; she was pronounced dead at a nearby hospital.
The church, which was built in 1874 and is a national historic landmark, DNAinfo Chicago reports, failed a number of inspections between 2007 and 2011, but passed inspections in 2012 and 2013.
“She was finally going to get married,” muses Bean’s brother, noting that she used to live right down the street and had passed the church “millions of times.”

The Company Restoring Egypt’s Oldest Pyramid Has Actually Made It Worse
Egypt’s oldest pyramid, the Pyramid of Djoser, in the ancient burial ground of Saqqara, is looking a little worse for the wear. After more than 4,600 years in the desert, some of the stones have eroded or fallen away, a rising water table has weakened the bedrock below the tombs, and a 1992 earthquake put the structure at risk. Unfortunately, the company hired to restore the ancient pyramid starting in 2006 may have made it worse.
Activists tell the Egypt Independent that the company, Shurbagy, has continued working on the pyramid after overseeing its deterioration and partial collapse.
Activist Amir Gamal of the “Non-Stop Robberies” movement told Egypt Independent that “New walls were built outside the pyramid as if the pyramid were a modern construction, which is opposite to international standards of restoration, which prevents adding more than 5% of construction to antiquities if necessary.” He continued to say that “Adding the modern construction is a large pressure on the decaying pyramid, which threatens catastrophe.”
Built in the 27th century B.C. for Pharaoh Djoser, the 200-foot-tall step pyramid was designed by one of the earliest known architect-engineers in history, Imhotep. It’s considered the earliest example of large-scale construction with cut stone in the world, a major deviation from the low, flat-roofed, mud-brick design of earlier Egyptian burial sites. Archeologists have criticized Egyptian authorities for choosing Shurbagy to oversee the restoration, as the company had not previously completed any restoration projects. – Fast Code Sign

Maine witnesses at Augusta who had just left I-95 north at exit 109 reported watching a hovering triangle UFO under 500 feet that made no sound about 8 p.m. on September 7, 2014, according to testimony in Case 59680 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
“We all noticed something hovering in the sky on the opposite side of the highway in front of us,” the reporting witness stated. “It was triangular. It was not moving.”
The witness described the object.
“At each vertex of the triangle there was a white light. The three lights appeared equidistant from each other. We could see a flat bottom and the light allowed us to see a 90-degree angle where the bottom met the edges that then moved up to give the object height. Most of us couldn’t stop looking at the edges because they were not anything like any aircraft that we are familiar with.”
The witness described the object’s color.
“We could see that the object was a flat metal color. It had no shine to it. Where the light hit the object, it looked like a tin color. There were no color lights at all.”
The entire family was witness to the event.
“My wife was driving, but she could see it out her window, but not for as long as I could see it from the passenger seat. My three children were in the backseat. All three children saw the object. I saw it out the front window first, then through the back window, and then I took off my seatbelt and stuck my head out the roof through the sunroof. When I stuck my head out the roof, I could not hear anything more than the wind caused by driving. No airplane sound at all, at anytime. The object never moved. It just hovered.”
The triangle UFO was described as having a flat metal color with no shine to it – like a tin color. Pictured: Augusta, Maine. (Credit: Google)
The family soon lost sight of the object.
“My wife was afraid to pull over, so we lost sight of it as we drove away. We do not look for UFOs. This object was so out of place that it was difficult for us not to notice it. All of us noticed it at the same time, and we were all in shock as we starred at it for as long as we could. My daughter even became frightened; it was that real to her.”
The witnesses were unable to take photographs.
“I did not try to take a photo because there was not enough time, and I would have lost a lot of the time I had to observe it. All we had was our cell phones, and we didn’t think a cell phone picture would have shown anything more than the lights, so we just watched the object as we drove away from it.”
The witnesses were afraid to pull over and quickly lost sight of the object. Pictured: Augusta, Maine. (Credit: Google)

Maine has a current UFO Alert Rating of 5 with a low number of recent reports nationally. Maine had 3 UFO reports in August 2014 – the 41st highest reporting state – while California had 99 reports as the highest reporting state. The above quotes were edited for clarity.

A man named Kraverov was working on his vegetable garden when suddenly five strange figures materialized before him. According to the witness the figures were apparently man-like, about 2 meters in height and all identical to each other. All wore some type of shimmering uniform. Whether from fright… or confusion Kraverov grabbed a knife and rushed one of the tall humanoids. However, to his surprise the knife seemed to pass right through the body apparently causing no harm to the humanoid. In response to his act of aggression one of the humanoids told Kraverov that they were going to drain him of his energy, after which Kraverov lost consciousness. Around the same time a watchman at an area stud farm watched a bright sphere-shaped UFO hovered 25 meters from his location. Soon after the encounter the unfortunate watchman became gravely ill with numerous diseases as his immune system apparently broke down and died.

REAL PHOTO OF AN ALIEN CRAFT OVER ARGENTINA JULY 3, 1960 ……….. CORDOBA ARGENTINA
It is a single-witness case, but this witness is a high-ranking officer of the Argentinean Air Force (AAF), who by a fluke was able to obtain a remarkable photograph as supporting evidence of his encounter. Even in Argentina, and perhaps due to the association of the witness with the AAF, the case was not given much publicity until 1977, when it finally was reported in UFO PRESS. The witness in this sighting is Hugo F. Niotti, then a captain of the AAF assigned to the Air Force School for Sub-officers located in the city of Cordoba. Contrary to what many would expect, his involvement in the case did not affect his military career, and seventeen years later, when finally interviewed by Roncoroni, he had risen to the high rank of vice-commodore, occupying a responsible position with the AAF. On July 3, 1960, then Captain Niotti was driving from Yacanto toward Cordoba. The weather was inclement, typical of what one would expect for that area in the middle of winter. It was drizzling off and on, and the cloud deck was very low, perhaps 100-150 m.. The road was rather slippery, and Capt. Niotti was concentrating hard on his driving. At approximately 4:30 PM, he was in the area of Villa General Belgrano, about 70 Km from the city of Cordoba. He had finished negotiating a wide S-curve, when he suddenly noticed a rather close and unusual object hovering near the ground to the right of the road. Startled, he stopped the car, grabbed his camera, fortunately next to him on the seat, moved a few steps away, and proceeded to take a photo of the object, which was moving slowly. While he was engaged in winding the film to take a second shot, the object started to accelerate and disappeared into the clouds, which as stated, were very low. The whole incident had lasted about 40 seconds and had developed into the most absolute silence. This eerie silence, coupled with the bad weather and the abruptness of the incident, gave Capt. Niotti a sense of reality, which puzzled and confused him. In this mood, he jumped back into his car and continued his trip to Cordoba, where he proceeded to have the film processed. Here is Capt. Niotti’s description of what he had seen. The object was conical in shape, with a height of 7-8 meters and a base diameter of 3-4 meters, with its axis almost parallel to the ground and its base facing the witness. It was at a distance of 80 to 100 meters from his location and moving very slowly toward the south, perhaps at 10 KPH, always parallel to the ground. It was rotating, also very slowly. It then accelerated very rapidly, attaining a speed of perhaps 200 KPH in 3 or 4 seconds, and disappeared into the low cloud bank. This sudden acceleration without any sound was inexplicable to the witness in view of his proximity. The color of the object was a uniform dark gray. The surface was perfectly smooth without joints or rivets and had a definite metallic aspect. As an officer of the AAF, Niotti was naturally reluctant to divulge his experience and initially told only a few fellow officers, who persuaded him to send the negatives and copies to the “Revista Nacional de Aeronautica” (RNA); the editors of this official magazine transmitted the photo to the “Servicio de Informaciones de Aeronautica” (SIA), a technical service available to the Air force. The SIA gave a good bill of health to the photo, and the sighting was reported by the RNA in its issue of November, 1960. It is remarkable that never before or after have the Armed Forces made public the results of a UFO investigation.

Domingo de la Cruz Horta, better known as “El Hilario” had taken his sheep herd for a night walk on some fields near the village. At the time there had been an unrelenting drought in the area which forced Domingo to walk the herd late at night or early morning and into some fields w…hich he had been prohibited from visiting by the owner. On this night, against his better judgment, Domingo was accompanied by a young helper. Around 2am after the animals had finished drinking water Domingo decided it was time to return to his farm. Exiting a small eucalyptus forest they noticed a very bright light coming from a field on a nearby farm. Domingo and his helper immediately thought it was the owner of said farm looking for trespassers. They could see a figure that was carrying the powerful beam of light. Suddenly and to their immense surprise the figure suddenly shot up into the air arriving at a very high altitude in a matter of seconds and silently. He didn’t appeared to be aided by any machinery or apparatus that they could see. Suddenly the hovering figure fell back to the ground. Thinking that whoever the person was it was now hurt or severely injured both men ran towards the location where he had been seen to fall to the ground. But suddenly they saw the figure appear from behind some bushes and shoot up into air this time flying in their direction. The figure illuminated the stunned witnesses with the beam of light which now seemed to be less potent. The strange flying man then descended slowly to the ground landing close to the witnesses and began to look around illuminating the area with the beam of light. Domingo noticed that the stranger wore a dark outfit with dark pants and a shiny “crown-like” hat. As Domingo approached the stranger in an attempt to speak to him, the man completely ignored him, turned around and walked back to the location where he had descended to earth before, once there he took off again to the sky, and as he did the beam of light he carried became much brighter. According to the witnesses the flying man hovered over the area for about 15 minutes and around 03:00 a.m. he left the area in the direction of Portugal.

A witness observed a strange aerial object in the sky over Kennewick, Washington as he was walking his dog on the night of Sunday, September 7.
“We looked up in the sky and there was this bright purple light just darting all around,” says witness David Friehauf. “It was too high up to be a toy. I just thought it was really strange.” Friehauf works at a local airport and is familiar with traditional aircraft. But he could not identify the unusual object with purple lights. He ran home to get his camera, and was able to capture a time-lapse photo of the UFO.

He contacted local NBC affiliate KULR for help identifying the mysterious UFO flying over his neighborhood. The station concluded that the object was a toy plane. But it is unclear how it reached that conclusion.
KULR contacted Brett Bowen from Eagle Eye Theater Aerial Video and Photography who cautions, “Don’t fly around full scale aircraft traffic and don’t fly around your neighbor’s house at night.” He continues, “When it comes to this, common sense is the most important.”

Drones, quadcopters, and other sophisticated remote-controlled aircraft continue to grow in popularity within the consumer market. And LED lights affixed to these craft make it easier to fly at night. These objects are responsible for many UFO sighting reports. But as these craft become more common, it is unfortunately likely that investigators, law enforcement, and reporters will be too quick in attributing strange aerial objects to remote-controlled craft, leaving the truly unexplained unexplored.
We were assured by space writers and science fiction authors that the vastness of interstellar space could only be crossed by mammoth space vehicles – “generation ships”, in the parlance of some spinners of space yarns – crewed by generations of space travelers hoping to reach their destination centuries hence. The concept was ripe for speculation. What if the children of the children of the first crew became a series of stratified societies aboard their vehicle, and had forgotten the purpose of their mission? (Harlan Ellison’s Phoenix in Ashes, the novelized version of The Starlost), or the fate of the mission was entrusted to a single pilot while passengers endured dreamlike sleep until their destination was within reach (James White’s The Dream Millennium). This science fiction did not allow for super-passing gear of hyperdrive like space opera: crossing the blackness of space was a dangerous, laborious process whose ultimate payoff was never in sight.
“These children,” wrote Arthur C. Clarke in his landmark Report on Planet Three and Other Speculations, “knowing no parents, or indeed anyone of a different age, would grow up in the strange artificial world of their speeding ship, reaching maturity in time to explore the planets ahead of them – perhaps to be the ambassadors of humanity among alien races, or perhaps to find, too late, that there were no home for them there. If their mission succeded, it would be their duty, or that of their descendants, if the first generation could not complete the task, to see that the knowledge they had gained was someday carried back to Earth. Would any society be morally justified in planning so onerous and uncertain a future for its unborn – indeed unconceived – children?”
Speculative aliens may face a similar situation. Around this same time, Clarke also wrote about “worldlets” filled with extraterrestrials who might venture through our solar system, and perhaps this line of thought led him to write Rendezvous with Rama (1973), a work desperately calling for elevation to the silver screen for four decades. The British scientist’s Childhood’s End also introduced us to the concept of giant alien saucers hovering over our planet’s major cities as the mysterious Overlords changed the direction of human civilization.
Size matters, and many of us – this writer included – sat in wonderment at a movie theater as Darth Vader’s star destroyer dominated the entire screen in its pursuit of Princess Leia’s Tantive IV in the crucial opening minutes of Star Wars: A New Hope (just plain Star Wars in 1977). An even bigger surprise awaited viewers as Han Solo’s Corellian freighter was absorbed into the moon-sized Death Star. Here was a Clarkian “worldlet” capable not only of traveling from one planet to another, but also destroying it.
Using science-fiction as our springboard, we move on to the subject of gigantic vehicles – seemingly real – that are often reported in UFO chronicles. The presence of such behemoths has fuelled speculation about alien efforts at colonizing our own star system, although – referring back to pulp as a touchstone – such massive craft could be needed to pierce the barrier that separates one dimension from another, as suggested in Fritz Leiber’s The Wanderer.
A Forgotten Case: The Janos People
The story of The Janos People occupied the narrow middle ground between the UMMO hoax and contactee experiences of the 1950s and 1960s. In 1978, a family traveling down a lonely road somewhere in England found their routine journey intercepted by an unidentified flying object. During the course of this CE-3 experience, the humans were taken aboard the alleged craft. In the abduction-riddled '90s, they would have been subjected to series of gruesome experiments; but things were different in the '70s, even in matters involving extraterrestrial captors, who limited themselves to showing their unwilling guests a movie.
The projection – for want of a better term – told the story of the destruction of the planet Janos as one of its satellites – Saton – crumbled to bits and rained mountain-sized fragments on the planet below, destroying atomic power plants and enveloping the world in fallout.
The Janosians set themselves to work on a gargantuan spaceship constructed in the stricken planet's orbit (somewhere free from the meteoroids left over from the destruction of Saton, one supposes) and this too was displayed to the captives. This unimaginably large, ring-shaped worldlet held ten million people, and waited at the edges of our solar system for permission to embark on a colonization mission: whether on Earth proper or perhaps terraforming another planet like Mars or Venus.
The story appeared in a book – aptly called The Janos People – by Frank Johnson in 1980. The description of the Janosian homeworld is straight out of the UMMO playbook and – if real – suggests some dark psychological operation, whether by the military or another shadowy organization. Taken at face value, the humanoid Janosians are politely awaiting permission to settle in our system, and may still be waiting out there (could all those blurry photographs of “rogue planets” and comets circulating on the Internet really be snapshots of the Janosian worldlet? Throw that into the pot of speculation for good measure).
“If they were desperate,” suggests the ever-quotable Arthur C. Clarke in his essay When The Aliens Come, “if, for example, they were the last survivors of an ancient race whose mobile worldlet had almost exhausted its supplies after aeons of voyaging, they might be tempted to make a fresh home in the solar system. The barren Moon and the drifting slag heaps of the asteroid belt would provide all the raw materials they needed, and the Sun, all the energy.” This seems like a more acceptable solution than the one proposed by author Frank Johnson, who proposed vacating New Zealand to turn it over to the Janosians.
Desperation must not be a factor for the ten million alien souls aboard the Janosian ring-ship.
The Worlds of Oahspe
Now we venture into an even more uncomfortable no-mans-land: border regions where spiritualism has points of contact with drug-induced visions, such as those produced by the consumption of ayahuasca and other substances. The Oahspe Bible, a work of automatic writing produced by John Ballou Newbrough in the late 19th century, occupies a respected place among new age and general esoteric writings. John A. Keel noted in his works that some of the terminology employed in contacteeism hails from this mysterious volume, but that most contactees had never heard of Dr. Newbrough’s nine hundred page long received work. It is not our intention here to delve into the theology of Oahspe or the reality of the spirits that dictated the huge document, but rather to only touch on a particular aspect – the fact that the world “star ship” makes its first appearance in written English (according to http://www.sacred-texts.com/oah/oah/).
“13. Onward moved the float, the fire-ship, with its ten million joyous souls, now nearing the borders of Horub, the boundary of Fragapatti's honored regions, known for hundreds of thousands of years, and for his work on many worlds. Here, reaching C'vork'um, the roadway of the solar phalanx, near the post of dan, where were quartered five hundred million ethereans, on a voyage of exploration of more than four millions of years, rich stored with the glories of Great Jehovih's universe. Their koa'loo, their ship, was almost like a world, so vast, and stored with all appurtenances. They talked of going home! Their pilots had coursed the firmament since long before the earth was made, and knew more than a million of roadways in the etherean worlds, and where best to travel to witness the grandest contrasting scenes.” (Book of Fragapatti, Son of Jehovih, Oahspe, 1912)
“Some of the giant starships are described in Oahspe as being from ethereal worlds,” observed Brinsley LePoer Trench – Lord Clancarty – in an article for SAGA UFO Report in 1976, “and others as from corporeal worlds such as our own. So almost 100 years ago Oahspe supported both the extra-dimensional theory and the extraterrestrial hypothesis. Indeed, Oahspe gives a history of both the etherean heavens and the corporeal worlds.” He concludes by saying: ‘In short, there may be a vast, galactic civilization in deep space, living not so much on physical planets but on giant spaceships the size of planets, as described in Oahspe.
The koa’loo certainly fits the bill for a Clarkian worldlet, – with room to spare – but it is a predecessor to other colossal conveyances described in the contactee tradition, such as the Ashtar Command’s flagship, the Shan Chea, depicted in contactee illustrations at a multi-leveled, football-shaped craft with a dozen separate decks ranging from a motor pool for flying saucers to the dome-shaped command deck from which Ashtarian officers survey the universe. Level Ten of this brobdingnagian craft contains “lodgings for visiting dignitaries from all dimensions” while Level Three contains a “zoo with animals of many worlds.” Level Eight contains housing for the evacuees from the impending destruction of planet Earth.
“Rest assured that the Mansions of Space are ready and awaiting their guests,” states the text accompanying the sketch of the giant spacecraft. “There will be no crowding of persons or things in these incredibly spacious, self-contained and extraordinarily organized floating aetheric ships. Seven of these pearly-white Space Cities are ready, and their sizes range from 10 miles in diameter (16 km) to the greatest of all, the one containing the headquarters of Lord Jesus Sananda, Lord Ashtar and the Ashtar Command, which is over one hundred miles in diameter.” An unwise tongue may be moved to quip that Tarkin's Death Star was two hundred miles across, but did not contain such august characters.
The most attractive feature of this contactee vessel is the Grand Rotunda (on Level 11) where human visitors shall be summoned from their staterooms for a meeting with the space brothers. “Its impressive circular walls contain giant displays through which guests may enjoy the cosmic landscape, their own world, and events from the past and those yet to come.”
Part II of this series continues tomorrow: Wednesday, September 10, 2014!
In 1952 America was in the grip of the bloody Korean conflict often referred to as the “Forgotten War”. An overseas “Police Action” as it has been termed which cost more than 50,000 US casualties. It is quite ironic to consider the General Douglas MacArthur, architect of the Interplanetary Phenomenon Unit, master minded the ingenious Inchon Landing. This amphibious assault by combined US forces in an area considered virtually impossible to stage such an assault upon was responsible for routing the North Korean army and changing the entire momentum of the war in favor of the allies who had been nearly driven into the sea at one point.
The unknown comes home to roost
It was at this crucial point in time that a series of persistent and dramatic UFO sightings and attempted intercepts occurred over White House air space during the weeks of July 1952. In that year an utter national flap of unprecedented proportions occurred all over the United States and left few regions untouched. Police departments, Air National Guard Units, and even the FBI were on alert as UFO’s were spotted in the daylight and nocturnal skies all over America. The FBI played a major role in conducting Special Agent interviews of UFO witnesses at the request of US Naval intelligence and USAF intelligence much to the chagrin of Director J. Edgar Hoover, who had resented being left out of the loop over the Roswell Incident in 1947, but was expected to provide support for the armed forces investigations anyway.
Growing tensions
As radar technicians braced themselves on many a warm and humid night in July tracking unidentified targets on their screens and verifying these by corroborating pilot visual confirmations, the situation grew more intense. USAF F-94C interceptor jets blazed into White House air space only to be unable to catch up to the brightly lit objects that quickly outdistanced them once they entered the area. As the US press corps pressured Air Force Spokesman Albert Chop for answers to the baffling events, the tension only increased. Chop, faced with being hounded by White House correspondents to enter the radar room and see the unknown targets hovering over Capitol Hill air space was forced to rebuff reporters under orders from high command.
A night to remember
On one particular fateful night in July when once again unknown aerial intruders invaded forbidden air space over Washington, US Air Force interceptors were again scrambled from New Castle AFB at 11:30 pm July 26th. Albert Chop had been called in from his home to attend the radar room along with Major Dewey Fournet, an intelligence expert charged with evaluating technical flight details. He had also been alerted by Pentagon Intelligence Officer on Duty Major Thomas. Major Fournet from Project Blue Book was called in to evaluate weather targets caused by temperature inversions and the good solid returns that were made by metallic crafts that the technicians were sure they were tracking.
Elusive targets
As Captain John McHugo and his wingman Lieutenant William Patterson roared into the vicinity of White House air space, all eyes were on the radarscopes. Earlier, 2 Air Force jets had attempted to intercept unknowns, but each time they ventured into the area all UFO targets disappeared off the radar. As soon as the jets vacated the area the unknowns reappeared again. This may perhaps be one of first known demonstrations of stealth technology only taught to us by an extraterrestrial civilization. Although the captain could not make visual contact, Patterson, his wingman did and gave pursuit. Four bright orbs appeared ahead of him and he was in full after burner at over 600 knots when something bizarre took place.
When the hunter becomes the hunted
Instead of eluding the USAF jets at high speed as had been the case all night long or vanishing, Lieutenant Patterson found his F-94C surrounded by the unknown aerial intruders. As air traffic controllers maintained audio contact, William Patterson’s voice registered stress as he reported that they were closing in on his aircraft. As the baffled Lieutenant requested instructions he was met with silence from a startled radar room. It seemed there was no procedure for such a contingency. After tense moments elapsed, Lieutenant Patterson reported that the UFO’s were backing off. Although the radar returns had shown that his jet had nearly been in physical contact with one of the unknowns, they were now vacating White House air space. A relieved radar room full of technicians, intelligence officers, and brass blew a sigh of relief.
Never to be revealed
Although Lieutenant William Patterson would have an intelligence debriefing shortly after landing his F-94C at New Castle Air Force Base, the details of that investigation have never been released to this day. Intelligence analysts obviously considered the data and eye witness account by the Air Force pilot to be classified and beyond the realm of FOIA requests. Captain Edward Ruppelt, Director of Project Blue Book was admittedly frustrated in his attempts to get to the radar room that night as only higher ranking officers could access the Air Force motor pool. Unwilling to take a taxi, Ruppelt returned to Wright Patterson AFB in Dayton, Ohio in lieu of events that he would answer to President Harry Truman for in the days that followed.
Shoot them down!
These events were responsible for a “Shoot Down” order that was issued by the Truman administration to the Pentagon Joint Chiefs of Staff as intelligence estimates considered the saturation of UFO reports on a national scale to be a possible prelude to a psychological warfare tactic that could precede a first strike scenario. Corroborated by research done by Frank Freschino in his book, “Shoot Them Down”, UFO Flap of 1952 culminated in paranoia for the Truman Administration in the midst of the Korean conflict. Speculation that the Soviets could capitalize upon the American public’s fascination with UFO’s as well as the startling air to air engagements witnessed over Washington gave rise to suspicions that would only lead to further secrecy in years to come.
Voices from the past
The Joint Chiefs of Staff had already been blindsided by the intelligence estimate submitted to them in 1947 by General Nathan F. Twining, who had confirmed that unidentified disks were, in fact, real and not illusory. Each successive investigation by the US Air Force such as Project “Grudge” and later Project “Sign” had utilized classic counter intelligence measures in attempting to downplay the more disturbing extraterrestrial hypothesis that such Generals as Hoyt Vandenberg were reticent to accept or pass on up the ladder to the oval office.
When you can’t perform your mission
One might ask why? As esteemed physicist Stanton Friedman has pointed out, when the US government spends billions on air defense, our high echelon military leadership is reluctant to admit that there are things and machines flying around in our air space with impunity that we cannot defend against much less identify. Today more than ever with huge black budgets that allegedly have developed new high performance aerial platforms from back engineered alien space craft, the need to know has become even more critical. Yet, the veil of secrecy may seem lifted over the open discussion of UFO history while the forbidden technology derived from it is more under wraps more than ever. Thus, military intelligence plays even more of a role in the hidden truth today than ever as the sociological impact is played upon through denial, half-truths, and the supposed miraculous technological advancements arrived at by man and his own ingenuity.

(N.Morgan) Tourists travel to exotic places and ancient destinations in the hopes of finding a deeper understanding of the mysteries that surround us, in our vast world. Hoping they can feel what went on decades before their feet tread upon the ground they seek. But sometimes, strange things happen to ordinary people in their own town. Finding out exactly what happened and why it happened remains of interest to millions around the world, especially when it seems that no logical explanation can be found.
10} Salzburg Cube
The Wolfsegg Iron, also known as The Salzburg Cube, is a small cuboid mass of iron that was found buried in Tertiary lignite in Wolfsegg am Hausruck, Austria, in 1885. It weighs 785 grams and measures 67 x 67 x 47mm. Four of its sides are roughly flat, while the two remaining sides (opposite each other) are convex. A fairly deep groove is incised all the way around the object, about mid-way up its height. The Wolfsegg Iron became notable when it was claimed to be an out of place artifact: a worked iron cube found buried in a 20 million year old coal seam. It was originally identified by scientists as being of meteoric origin, a suggestion later ruled out by analysis. It seems most likely that it is a piece of cast iron used as ballast in mining machinery, deposited during mining efforts before it was found apparently within the seam.
In 1885, Reidl, an employee at an Austrian foundry, discovered the mysterious Salzburg Cube (also known as the Wolfsegg Iron). He cracked open a seam of coal to find a strange-looking iron cube inside it. It had many cracks and little holes in it, as well as a strange color and a deep fissure down the middle. Reidl had never seen anything like it before, so after showing it to his boss, they turned it over to the Heimathaus Museum.
The next year, a professor at the museum named Adolf Gurlt studied the cube and determined it to be part of a meteorite. But further studies by the Natural History Museum in Vienna proved that it was not in fact a meteorite, but artificially manufactured from an unknown source. It is thought that the coal that “produced” the Salzburg Cube was at least 60 million years old. Adding to the mystery of the Cube is how some people actually believe it to have vanished. The reasons for this range from it being part of a shadowy conspiracy to it simply being debunked as a worthless piece of rock and tossed away as such. This, of course ignores the fact that the Cube does in fact exist, and can be found safely on display at its usual home, the Heimathaus Museum in Vienna.
9} Screaming Mummy
Discovered in 1886, a mummy with an agonized expression on his face has long since been the object of speculation. This mummy has all his organs intact, which is not customary with mummification. Many interesting theories have arisen, though none have been proven right or wrong. Bob Brier, a University of Long Island archaeologist, speculated that two parties were responsible for the mummy’s agonized expression. One was the murderer, while the other ensured full preservation of the body (possibly due to a personal relationship with the victim). Other researchers and archaeologists have come up with theories ranging from cold-blooded murder to poisoning to being buried alive.
A 2008 National Geographic documentary special investigated the possibility that the mummy could be Prince Pentewere (son of Pharaoh Ramses III), who was suspected of planning his father’s murder. Ancient documents from the 12th century claimed one of Pharaoh Ramses III’s wives was tried for conspiring to kill him, due to her desire for Pentewere to take over the throne. It is thought that when this plan was discovered, she poisoned Pentewere as punishment and rolled him up in sheepskin after being mummified. If that was the case, the “scream” could have been due to the pain from the poison ingested. However, only a CT scan had been done of the screaming mummy, and it remains pure speculation whether the mummy was in fact Prince Pentewere.
Less sensational theories suggest that the mummy’s jaw is open simply because his head most likely rolled back after death occurred. But even that bit of realism is as good a guess as anybody else’s.
8} Ever-Burning Lamps
Imagine that you find a small burning lamp hidden deep in an ancient vault. This mysterious lamp, which is in perfect preservation, has burned continuously without fuel for the last 2,000 years. What would you think of your remarkable discovery? Most likely you would wonder whether the precious lamp that you are holding in your hands is a magical object, a work of God, or perhaps some evil powers. Could this ancient treasure be a proof of highly advanced technology? Did our ancestors discover the secret of eternal light?
Although it might sound amazing, and for some even impossible certain extraordinary findings clearly show that perpetual light was rather common in prehistory. I deal with advanced ancient technology in “Voices from Legendary Times” to a large extent. In my book I uncover a number of strange enigmas from all over the world. Perpetual light is an ancient technology that to this today remains a mystery.
During the Middle Ages a number of ever-burning lamps were discovered in ancient tombs and temples. Based on ancient records we learn that these mysterious objects were found all over the world, in India, China, South America, North America, Egypt Greece, Italy, United Kingdom, Ireland, France and many other countries. Unfortunately, looters, vandals, and superstitious diggers who feared that these objects possessed supernatural powers destroyed many of the lamps.
7} Panxian Caves
The Panxian Dadong Caves are known to have housed humans 300,000 years ago. It is also known that large animals inhabited the vicinity of the caves as well. Scientists, however, were extremely surprised to find prehistoric deposits indicating massive stegodons and rhinoceros also lived, or at least died, inside the caves. They found this very strange, seeing as how the caves are 1,600 meters (5,250 ft) above sea level. Paleoanthropologist Lynne Schepartz stated how rare is is to find animals in a cave that don’t typically live in them. She believed that stegodons and rhinos were very unlikely to simply wander into the cave. Rhinos, in particular, are solitary animals that graze on their own. And yet, here lie their remains.
One theory involves carnivorous animals killing the mammals and dragging them into the cave. The most likely answer, though, would be human intervention. Inspection of the bones showed that they were burnt and then pounded by what could only have been a tool made out of stone. The last expedition to the cave took place in 1998. To date, no further progress has been made in determining just exactly how those large animals got into the cave at all.
6} Lady Of The Spiked Throne
The Lady of the Spiked Throne is the fitting name given to a mysterious and unique artifact dating back to 2700 B.C. The artifact remains one of the strangest ancient objects ever found. After ensuring that it was not a fake, Italian archaeologist Massimo Vidale and his team noted the Lady’s unique look for posterity. The object is shaped like a large vehicle—most likely a chariot or boat—ending at the front with the figurine of a large bull’s head. Inside the vehicle are 15 figures forming what can be described as a procession. There are traces of yellow, red, and black on these figures.
Some of the male figurines share the same adornments around the neck and on their head. Conical gowns are “worn” that have not been observed in other similar figurines. You can also see a female figurine can be seen seated on a “throne of spikes,” therefore the name Lady of the Spiked Throne. Vidale’s studies concluded the Lady was created by the ancient Indus civilization, but its meaning and purpose is a mystery. No evidence suggests Indus used any four-wheel vehicles, and it is unknown whether the artifact was made for ritual use or another, more practical reason.
5} Ancient Structure Underneath Sea Of Galilee
In 2003, scientists accidentally discovered a circular structure underneath the Sea of Galilee. Publishing the findings almost 10 years later, geophysicist Shmuel Marco told CNN that they were very surprised to see what looked like a Bronze Age statue on the ocean floor. Marco speculated that the ancient structure may have been a marine nursery. Most archaeologists, however, believe it was situated on land and became submerged by the water over time. The structure is made up of basalt and shaped like a cone. Measuring 70 meters (230 ft) at the bottom, the structure is 10 meters (33 ft) tall, and is estimated to weigh 54.5 million kilograms (60,000 tons). It can be compared to the size of two Stonehenges. Its age is estimated to be between 2,000-12,000 years old, a range determined by calculating the amount of sand that accumulated over the base of the structure, as well as comparing it to similar structures.
Archaeologist Dani Nadel has interestingly noted that the structure has similar features to that of other ancient burial sites in the area. Calling it a truly unusual find, Nadel theorized that the structure could have been used for ceremonial purposes. He also pointed out how the structure being built using large stones weighing almost 100 kilograms (220 lb) each was a very impressive feat. He stressed, however, that the true purpose and age of the structure will likely remain unknown.
4} Hidden Shoes In Egyptian Temple
More than 2,000 years ago, at a time when Egypt was ruled by a dynasty of kings of Greek descent, someone, perhaps a group of people, hid away some of the most valuable possessions they had — their shoes. Seven shoes were deposited in a jar in an Egyptian
, three pairs and a single one. Two pairs were originally worn by children and were only about 7 inches (18 centimeters) long. Using palm fiber string, the child shoes were tied together within the single shoe (it was larger and meant for an adult) and put in the jar. Another pair of shoes, more than 9 inches (24 cm) long that had been worn by a limping adult, was also inserted in the jar. The shoe-filled jar, along with two other jars, had been “deliberately placed in a small space between two mudbrick walls,” writes archaeologist Angelo Sesana in a report published in the journal Memnonia.
3} Baiae Tunnels
More than 2,000 years ago, the Baiae temple in Rome was a popular destination, known alternately for minerals with supposed immortality-bestowing powers, and possibly housing the entrance to Hades. Now, just the mysterious ruins remain. In the 1960s, Robert Paget and Keith Jones decided to explore these ruins. After struggling to get through the narrow opening, they found themselves in a narrow tunnel and smelled volcanic gas. Paget found the start of the tunnel complex was pointed toward the summer sunrise, and the tunnels ran perfectly from east to west toward the equinoctial sunrise. This indicated rituals were a factor during the building of the tunnels.
The pair found many niches meant for lamps along the tunnels and indications that great thought went into the building and setting out of the tunnels in order to keep them hidden. They also found what seemed to be a ventilation system inside a blockage within the tunnel system. However, it was when they reached the end of a steep tunnel that the real mystery presented itself. Just after a sharp bend ran a stream of boiling hot water. A stone landing projected out into the water and seemed to vanish into the dark. The men decided that if Hades did in fact exist, they had just found its mythical entrance.In 1965, the two men, with the help of Colonel David Lewis, determined the boiling water was due to underground volcanic chambers that produced hot springs. However, even with that new knowledge, they still could not solve the mystery of who built the tunnels of Baiae, or what their real purpose was.
2} Antelope Springs Footprint
On June 1, 1968, amateur fossil hunter William J. Meister Sr. took his family on a trip to Antelope Springs. Meister couldn’t take off his fossil-hunting jacket, though, and went in search of trilobite fossils. He eventually found a fossil with what looked like a shoe imprint, the heel digging in deeper than the rest of the foot. Below the imprint, he found two trilobite fossils. Meister immediately thought that the person wearing the shoes had stepped onto the fossils. Taking it for examination, Meister and fellow researchers dated the fossil at almost 600 million years old and determined it was likely formed in Middle Cambrian Wheeler Shale. When they explored the area, they discovered slabs of mudstone that had, once upon a time, formed an entire land area.
The mystery, however, is that while the shoe print clearly indicates someone standing or stepping on the trilobites, there is no evidence indicating any pressure on the trilobites themselves. Also, the trilobites were marine creatures, meaning that whoever created the shoe print had entered their area. Why exactly, nobody knows.
1} The Pyramid Of Hellinikon
Greek pyramids, also known as the Pyramids of Argolis, refers to several structures located in the plain of Argolid, Greece. The best known of these is known as the Pyramid of Hellinikon. In the time of the geographer Pausanias it was considered to be a tomb. Twentieth century researchers have suggested other possible uses. Although these structures are of great interest, written references are rather scarce and they are not mentioned in ancient sources. Pausanias (2nd century AD) mentions two buildings resembling pyramids, one, twelve miles southwest of the still standing structure at Hellinikon, a common tomb for soldiers who died in a legendary struggle for the throne of Argos and another which he was told was the tomb of Argives killed in a battle around 669/8 BC. Neither of these still survive.
On the way from Argos to Epidauria there is on the right a building made very like a pyramid, and on it in relief are wrought shields of the Argive shape. Here took place a fight for the throne between Proetus and Acrisius; the contest, they say, ended in a draw, and a reconciliation resulted afterwards, as neither could gain a decisive victory. The story is that they and their hosts were armed with shields, which were first used in this battle. For those that fell on either side was built here a common tomb, as they were fellow citizens and kinsmen.
In one if the latest UFO sighting news stories to come out of Gig Harbor, Washington a gold disc UFO was captured above the water in four photographs.
While on the beach with their grandchildren and taking photographs of the scenery the witness captured this golden disc shaped UFO above the harbor. The four pictures were taken in burst mode one right after the other. The witness claims that the disc UFO was not visible at the time the pictures were taken and did not notice them until later when downloading them into their computer.
Witness statement :
“I was on the beach at low tide in Gig Harbor WA (Forest Beach Drive), on Monday, August 11, 2014 around noon with my children and grandchildren. I was photographing everyone catching crabs and star fish and looking at shells on the beach. I just decided to take a picture of the horizon and the lovely scenery. I did not see anything unusual with my eyes, nor did I see anything but the scenery through the camera lens. No one with me noticed anything unusual in the sky. However, when I downloaded the photos later that day I saw the round yellow object in four sequential (rapid shot) photos and the object was in a different position in each one. I am not saying it’s a UFO, but everyone who has seen the photos says it has to be. The object was too far from land on either side of the Bay to have been a frisbee or a remote control plane. When I zoomed in close on the computer, the object definitely “looks” like a UFO with a little bulge on the top and what looks like a row of windows — although I’m sure it could be any number of things. I was standing on the west facing beach, looking out over Hales Passage (part of Puget Sound). The four photos were taken at 12:04:18.”
This UFO sighting was reported to the MUFON reporting site as case #59158.
A cameraman for the NBC news affiliate KSNW captures a rod type UFO in the skies of Kansas and claims to have been interrogated by the FBI for 10 hours.
KSNW’s news photographer Brandon Mowry captured this rod UFO in 2002 while filming news footage at Albany International Airport. Brandon was not looking in the view finder of his camera when he captured the UFO and did not notice it until he was editing the footage.
“When I was in the edit Bay I just so happened to pause it on one of the 7 frames that it was in.”
After informing the news station what he had captured the station then called the police, who in return called the FBI. Brandon claims the FBI Interogated him for hours, giving him a polygraph test. At the time the FBI thought the news photographer faked the footage of the UFO.
The footage shows this rod UFO going behind a cloud that was estimated to be at 5,000 feet which news reporter Anne Meyer says Brandon could not fake.
The footage of the UFO is featured in a new History Channel series called MONSTERQUEST. The series looks at the theory of rods which some believe are biological creatures that live in the upper atmosphere and just recently beencaptured on camera. Some experts say that these rod UFOs are merely tricks of light that effects the cameras eye.
There can be very few people – if, indeed, any – with an interest in UFOs, conspiracies, cover-ups, and strange and sinister goings-on of a distinctly weird nature who have not heard of the so-called “black helicopters” or “phantom helicopters” that seem to play an integral – albeit admittedly unclear – role in perceived UFO-connected events. And one of the biggest misconceptions about this deeply weird phenomenon is that those same mysterious helicopters are lacking in official documentation. Actually not so at all. In fact, exactly the opposite. If you know where to go looking…
The FBI’s now-declassified files on cattle-mutilations in 1970s USA make for fascinating reading and demonstrate the Bureau had a deep awareness of the presence of the enigmatic helicopters in affairs of the mute kind. On 29 August 1975, Floyd K. Haskell, Senator for the State of Colorado, wrote an impassioned letter to Theodore P. Rosack, Special Agent in Charge of the FBI at Denver, Colorado, imploring the FBI to make a full investigation into the cattle mutilations, in an attempt to resolve the matter once and for all.
He said: “For several months my office has been receiving reports of cattle mutilations throughout Colorado and other western states. At least 130 cases in Colorado alone have been reported to local officials and the Colorado Bureau of Investigation (CBI); the CBI has verified that the incidents have occurred for the last two years in nine states. The ranchers and rural residents of Colorado are concerned and frightened by these incidents. The bizarre mutilations are frightening in themselves: in virtually all the cases, the left ear, rectum and sex organ of each animal has been cut away and the blood drained from the carcass, but with no traces of blood left on the ground and no footprints.”
And there was an unmarked helicopter out in force in Colorado too, as Senator Haskell was only too well aware:
“In Colorado’s Morgan County area there has [sic] also been reports that a helicopter was used by those who mutilated the carcasses of the cattle, and several persons have reported being chased by a similar helicopter. Because I am gravely concerned by this situation, I am asking that the Federal Bureau of Investigation enter the case. Although the CBI has been investigating the incidents, and local officials also have been involved, the lack of a central unified direction has frustrated the investigation.”
He continued: “It seems to have progressed little, except for the recognition at long last that the incidents must be taken seriously. Now it appears that ranchers are arming themselves to protect their livestock, as well as their families and themselves, because they are frustrated by the unsuccessful investigation. Clearly something must be done before someone gets hurt.”
The loss of livestock in at least 21 states under similar circumstances suggested that an interstate operation was being coordinated. Senator Haskell closed his letter by urging the FBI to begin its investigation as soon as possible. Senator Haskell forced the issue by issuing a press release, informing the media that he had asked the FBI to investigate the mutilations. This caused the Denver Post newspaper to take up the Senator’s plea on 3 September:
“If the Bureau will not enter the investigation of the mysterious livestock deaths in Colorado and some adjacent states then Senator Floyd Haskell should take the matter to Congress for resolution.”
Aware of previous FBI statements that the killings were not within the Bureau’s jurisdiction, the Denver Post stated firmly: “The incidents are too widespread – and potentially too dangerous to public order – to ignore. Narrow interpretations of what the FBI’s role is vis-a-vis state authority are not adequate to the need.”
The issue of possible disregard for the law should the Bureau not wish to become involved was also high on the Post’s agenda: “There is already federal involvement. Consider this: Because of the gun-happy frame of mind developing in eastern Colorado (where most of the incidents have been occurring), the US Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has had to cancel a helicopter inventory of its lands in six counties. BLM officials are simply afraid their helicopters might be shot down by ranchers and others frightened by cattle deaths.”
On the day after publication, Special Agents Rosack and Sebesta of the Colorado FBI made a visit to the offices of the Denver Post, where, in a meeting with three Post representatives, Charles R. Buxton, Lee Olson and Robert Partridge, they spelled out the FBI’s position with respect to mutilations: “…unless the FBI has investigative jurisdiction under Federal statute, we cannot enter any investigation.”
One week later, on 11 September, Senator Haskell telephoned Clarence M. Kelley at the FBI to discuss the issue of cattle and animal mutilation and the possibility of the FBI becoming involved in determining who, exactly, was responsible. Again, the FBI asserted that this was a matter outside of its jurisdiction.
The Bureau noted: “Senator Haskell [said that] he understood our statutory limitations but he wished there was something we could do,” reported an FBI official, R. J. Gallagher. Haskell had additional reasons for wanting the mutilation issue resolved swiftly, as Gallagher recorded in an internal memorandum of 12 September 1975:
“Senator Haskell recontacted me this afternoon and said that he had received a call from Dane Edwards, editor of the paper in Brush, Colorado, who furnished information that US Army helicopters had been seen in the vicinity of where some of the cattle were mutilated and that he, Edwards, had been threatened but Senator Haskell did not know what sort of threats Edwards had received or by whom. He was advised that this information would be furnished to our Denver Office and that Denver would closely follow the situation.”
The FBI ultimately determined that the unidentified helicopter issue was also outside of its jurisdiction. Curiously, however, during this same time frame, numerous reports of both UFOs and unidentified helicopters surfaced in the immediate vicinity of strategic military installations around the USA, and there is evidence that someone within the FBI was fully aware of this, and was taking more than a cursory interest in these sightings.
Proof comes via a number of Air Force reports forwarded to the FBI only weeks after its contact with Senator Haskell. One report from December 1975 states:
“On 7 Nov 75 an off duty missile launch officer reported that unidentified aircraft resembling a helicopter had approached and hovered near a USAF missile launch control facility, near Lewistown. Source explained that at about 0020, 7 Nov 75, source and his deputy officer had just retired from crew rest in the Soft Support Building (SSB) at the LCF, when both heard the sound of a helicopter rotor above the SSB. The Deputy observed two red-and-white lights on the front of the aircraft, a white light on the bottom, and a white light on the rear.
“On 7 Nov 75, Roscoe E. III, Captain, 341 Strategic Missile Wing, advised that during the hours of 6-7 Nov 75, two adjacent LCFs, approximately 50 miles south of aforementioned LCF, reported moving lights as unidentified flying objects (UFO). During this period there were no reports of helicopter noises from personnel at these LCFs.
“This office was recently notified of a message received by security police MAFB, MT., detailing a similar nocturnal approach by a helicopter at a USAF weapons storage area located at another USAF base in the Northern Tier states. Local authorities denied the use of their helicopters during the period 6-7 Nov 75.”
It’s curious that these reports should have been of interest to the FBI, given the statements made to Senator Haskell that the unidentified helicopter sightings reported in Colorado were outside of the FBI’s jurisdiction.
It is also notable that an unauthenticated document made available to researcher William Moore (co-author with Charles Berlitz of The Roswell Incident) refers to the Northern Tier helicopter and UFO sightings of 1975, and expresses concern that, in view of the fact that the media had picked up on the stories, there was a need on the part of some authority to develop an effective disinformation plan to counter the developing interest that was surrounding the sightings.
In view of all the above, whatever the truth behind the matter of helicopters of the black and phantom kind, methinks we have not heard the end of this controversy…

Out, right now, is the brand new book from David Clarke: Britain’s X-traordinary Files. As you may guess from its title, the book deals with British Government records on an astonishingly wide and varied body of paranormal phenomena. Most readers ofMysterious Universe will, I’m sure, know that over the years various arms of the British Ministry of Defence investigated reports of UFOs in the nation’s airspace.
What Dave Clarke’s new book demonstrates, however, is what else the world of officialdom has had in its sights over the years. Some of it, as now-declassified files reveal, was not just weird. It was what we might term beyond weird. Dave is to be applauded for having spent who knows how many hours at the U.K. National Archives, digging around for material on the kinds of things that used to make Fox Mulder drool.
I read the approximately 200-page book across three sittings, and a fascinating study of real life X-Files it certainly is. I think it’s pretty fair to say that when it comes to the world of the British Government and the unexplained, most people assume it began and finished with flying saucers, UFOs, and the like. Not so. In fact, the exact opposite.
Safety goggles are for the weak
Dave demonstrates the sheer diversity of material – which extends back not just decades but centuries. So, with that all said, where should I start? Well, I’ll begin with my favorite section of the book. Namely, that of officialdom’s interest in the domain of “death rays.” Welcome to the world of a certain Harry Grindell-Matthews, otherwise known as the “Death Ray Man.”
To say that Grindell-Matthews was quite a character is an understatement. His is a story in which secret files, alleged fantastic technologies developed by the Germans, and even Winston Churchill, pop up! We also get to hear of other rumors and tales of death ray technology reportedly studied by officialdom – to varying degrees.
Britain’s ABCs – the mysterious “Alien Big Cats” that have roamed the land for so long – are covered too, specifically in terms of the government ‘s (somewhat reluctant) response to the phenomenon. As is the nation’s most mysterious of all unknown animals – the Loch Ness Monster, which, as Britain’s X-traordinary Files demonstrates, has been the topic of far more than a few official dossiers over the decades.
The curious and secret saga of how the British Police Force – during the Second World War – found itself caught up in the controversy of dowsing (or water-divining) is told , as is the fascinating story of Britain’s very own 1970s-era wave of mysterious helicopters.
What could possibly go wrong
Many people will have heard of encounters with “phantom helicopters” and “black helicopters” in the United States. Far less, I’m sure, will know the intriguing story of how Britain’s Ministry of Defence and Special Branch found themselves immersed in the puzzle – as a big wad of previously-classified files clearly demonstrate.
The idea that British Fire Brigade papers might exist on violent poltergeist activity in 1960s London sounds like something straight out of one of those old, Hammer-horror movies of decades long gone. Not so. As Dave shows, truth really is weirder than fiction.
If you know the 1964 story of Jim Templeton, the Solway Spaceman, and Templeton’s run-in with a pair of very odd Men in Black, you’ll be very pleased to know that this case (one with a definitive refusal to die) is focused on heavily, too.
Add to that official files on (a) sightings of sea serpents; (b) witchcraft trials; (c) British Intelligence dabbling in the world of the occult, as it sought to defeat Hitler’s hordes; and (d) a wealth of additional mysteries that occupied, mystified, and sometimes fascinated the world of government, military, and the intelligence service of the British Government, and you’ll find yourself immersed in a book quite unlike any other
A pictures shows binary code reflected from a computer screen in a woman's eye on October 22, 2012.
For the first time, scientists have been able to send a simple mental message from one person to another without any contact between the two, thousands of miles apart in India and France.
Research led by experts at Harvard University shows technology can be used to transmit information from one person's brain to another's even, as in this case, if they are thousands of miles away.
"It is kind of technological realization of the dream of telepathy, but it is definitely not magical," Giulio Ruffini, a theoretical physicist and co-author of the research, told AFP by phone from Barcelona.
"We are using technology to interact electromagnetically with the brain."
For the experiment, one person wearing a wireless, Internet-linked electroencephalogram or EEG would think a simple greeting, like "hola," or "ciao."
A computer translated the words into digital binary code, presented by a series of 1s or 0s.
Then, this message was emailed from India to France, and delivered via robot to the receiver, who through non-invasive brain stimulation could see flashes of light in their peripheral vision.
The subjects receiving the message did not hear or see the words themselves, but were correctly able to report the flashes of light that corresponded to the message.
"We wanted to find out if one could communicate directly between two people by reading out the brain activity from one person and injecting brain activity into the second person, and do so across great physical distances by leveraging existing communication pathways," said co-author Alvaro Pascual-Leone, professor of neurology at Harvard Medical School.
"One such pathway is, of course, the Internet, so our question became, 'Could we develop an experiment that would bypass the talking or typing part of Internet and establish direct brain-to-brain communication between subjects located far away from each other in India and France?'"
Ruffini added that extra care was taken to make sure no sensory information got in the way that could have influenced the interpretation of the message.
Researchers have been attempting to send a message from person to person this way for about a decade, and the proof of principle that was reported in the journal PLOS ONE is still rudimentary, he told AFP.
"We hope that in the longer term this could radically change the way we communicate with each other," said Ruffini.
This post is one in a series covering, and expanding on, topics in the book The Copernicus Complex (Scientific American/FSG).
The conversation usually goes like this:
Do you think we’re alone in the universe?
Answer A) :
No, absolutely not. It’s a huge universe, we’re not at the center or central in any way and it would be the height of vanity to think humans or Earth are in any way special or significant.
Answer B):
We might be. There’s never been any firm evidence of extraterrestrial life, and our galaxy is old enough that intelligent civilizations should have spread everywhere by now.
I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve had this exchange, with scientists, with family, with random people at pubs and (once) on a heavily forested hillside in Norway with a pair of slightly suspicious looking hikers who had probably just hidden a body somewhere. But the fascinating thing is how we tend to fall into either camp A or camp B, and how strongly we feel about our answers.
There are some caveats. The ‘we’ in the original question is a loaded word. It can be taken to mean ‘technologically intelligent life’ (i.e. as modern humans like to think they are), or it can be taken to mean ‘slime’ – the single-celled microbial life that represents, and has always represented, the bulk of living matter on Earth. If the definition of ‘we’ gets refined using these categories the answers can change a bit. In fact both A and B responses tend to converge to a tepid middle-ground, along the lines of saying that there could be lots of microbial-type life in the cosmos, where it sits slime-like under a favorite rock rather than building pan-galactic empires, while more complex life is either very rare (as in the so-called Rare Earth hypothesis) or never makes it very far into interstellar space (part of an idea called the Great Filter).
This is an awfully unsatisfactory state of affairs, a set of answers that are enormously influenced by our interpretation of events here on Earth. The impasse would be broken if we could detect life with an independent origin elsewhere – either in the solar system or farther beyond – yet that’s a challenge that remains unmet.
It may not stay that way for much longer, between our exploration of Mars and our ambitions for exploring places like comets and icy moons, we really do seem to be getting closer to examining local possibilities for life. And with a stunning array of exoplanet detections, and near-term cataloging of all the best neighboring targets with upcoming missions like TESS, we should be able to apply the next generation of space and ground based ‘super observatories‘ to make crude measurements of the properties of a few potential Earth-analogs. But this is an optimistic overview. In all of these examples, the non-detection of life (whether as fossils or as chemical signatures) is unlikely to eliminate the possibility of life in these places – we simply won’t be able to be that thorough.
So, unfortunately, in ten years time we’re quite likely to still be having the A vs B conversation. On the face of it the compromise solution – that microbial-type life may be common, but life like us isn’t – seems like a decent answer. However, there’s a catch.
Most of this argument hinges on the idea that Earth’s complex-celled, multi-cellular life (everything from nematodes to sheep) only exists because of a sequence of very specific, but low probability, events – including the way and location in which the Earth formed (with water, with plate tectonics), to the presence of a large moon (keeping our spin axis from varying too much), to a chance merger of two equally simple, single-celled, organisms giving rise to complex, eukaryotic life 2 billion years ago. Thus the odds of a planet making creatures like us is vanishingly unlikely, and so this simply can’t have happened in many other places, even in a universe of hundreds of billions of galaxies and nearly 14 billion years old.
Except this is a very specific interpretation of the facts, after the events (a post-hoc analysis). To use an analogy, imagine that you’re woken up one morning by the telephone ringing. You answer and it’s a distant cousin just calling to let you know their new number. Later, as you walk to work, a bus honks at traffic and you glance up to see some of the digits of that phone number on its side. At lunchtime a torn piece of newspaper gets stuck on your foot, with the headline that the national lottery has a record prize draw. Back at work a colleague insists that you participate in a meeting where the word ‘prize’ gets used extensively. On your way home you stop at a newspaper stand and decide to buy a lottery ticket. The next morning you discover that you’ve won the huge jackpot!
What do you make of this? Your natural instinct is to look back at the events of the previous day, marveling at how, step-by-step, you were led to this point by a series of unlikely events. Taken altogether, you reason, this was incredibly improbable, it’s as if the cosmos has singled you out to win!
Yet this isn’t true at all. Someone, somewhere, was going to win the lottery draw. And whoever they were, in whatever circumstances, they would be having the same thoughts. The events of the previous day, week, or year would all take on new meaning in light of the outcome. There would be numbers that they’d seen, choices made, steps taken, random occurrences that appeared to lead up to this point.
Of course some of these events were necessary, but they would also be entirely different if another person had won. The point being that it would be hugely irrational to claim that the chain of events that led to you winning was the only way this could have happened.
All of which circles back to the idea of the ‘rarity’ of life’s trajectory here on Earth. The fact is that our perspective is not unlike the lottery winner’s. It’s easy to look back at 4 billion years of bio-geo-chemical evolution and say that organisms like us were a highly improbable outcome. But in truth we don’t know whether or not that’s actually true, and we can’t know because we have no information about how things have played out across billions of other worlds across the galaxy. In a sense, we have no idea how many other winning lottery tickets are out there in the cosmos, or how they were picked.
And that raises a new question (one that I will tackle in a later post, Part 2), about why we have no idea, and how complex, even technological, life elsewhere could have remained unseen to this point…

"Vie extraterrestre : le grand débat"par Caleb A. Scharf (directeur du Centre d'Astrobiologie multidisciplinaire de l'Université de Columbia) qui conclut ainsi la 1ère partie :
"Tout cela pour en arriver à la question : si une forme de vie complexe, voire technologique, existe ailleurs dans l'univers, comment se fait-il que nous n'en voyions toujours pas trace ?
(une autre façon de poser le Paradoxe de Fermi...)
Bien sûr, les ufologues et partisans rétorqueront que cette trace,justement, nous l'avons sous les yeux depuis, disons, 1947. Un grand débat, décidément
In just four years, the experimental research wing of the US military, named DARPA, plans to market a medical device that can recover lost memories. Intended for soldiers suffering from brain injury as a result of combat, the device will also work on other neurological disorders like epilepsy and Parkinson's. Lead researcher Michael Kahana, director of the Computational Memory Lab at the University of Pennsylvania, uses modern technological metaphors to describe how memory functions in the brain:
"The memory is like a search engine. In the initial memory encoding, each event has to be tagged. Then in retrieval, you need to be able to search effectively using those tags."
Locating those tags, i.e. finding memories that are no longer accessible to the conscious mind, depends on identifying electrical signals associated with memory encoding and retrieval. Once these signals are found, DARPA's research team will use neural stimulation devices to amplify them, making them easier to detect and bring to the conscious mind.
While the last two decades have seen massive pharmaceutical investment in drug discovery efforts, industry observers have recently seen those levels fall off dramatically. In the near-term, electrical neuro-modulation devices show greater promise when it comes to treating neurological disorders.
And while memory retrieval may benefit those with degenerative neurological disorders, devices which disable active memories could be of more use to those suffering from PTSD. In his Big Think interview, NYU bioethics professor Matthew Liao describes such a device:
NASA’s orbiting James Webb Space Telescope will be “the premier observatory of the next decade, serving thousands of astronomers worldwide, and studying every phase in the history of our Universe, ranging from the first luminous glows after the Big Bang, to the formation of solar systems capable of supporting life on planets like Earth, to the evolution of our own Solar System.”
So why does its Director need to have a Top Secret/SCI security clearance, as specified in the job description posted last month on USA Jobs?
Clearly, the secrets of the universe do not lend themselves to, or require, national security classification controls, let alone non-disclosure agreements or polygraph testing.
But in practice, the civilian space program intersects the national security space program at multiple points, and former CIA analyst Allen Thomson suggested that the future Webb Director might need a Top Secret intelligence clearance in order to engage with the National Reconnaissance Office on space technology and operations, for example.
The Webb Space Telescope “will complement and extend the discoveries of the Hubble Space Telescope, with longer wavelength coverage and greatly improved sensitivity,” according to NASA. “The longer wavelengths enable the Webb telescope to look much closer to the beginning of time and to hunt for the unobserved formation of the first galaxies, as well as to look inside dust clouds where stars and planetary systems are forming today.”
The Webb Telescope has a projected launch date in 2018.
A LEADING Australian researcher has called for the launch of a quick response team to investigate UFO sightings across Australia within hours of them being reported.
The civilian unit would take on a role similar to air crash investigators, interviewing witnesses and taking samples from the scene to be tested, with findings documented and released publicly.
“I know of at least one Australian researcher who is sitting on some very detailed information about this case supplied by an informant and I would like to see them invited to share the knowledge with us all,” Mr Basterfield said.
Questions were also raised about the validity of claims that a high-altitude weather balloon was to blame for the mystery.
Interviews from witnesses on the day the UFO was spotted were played.
Each described seeing three objects hovering over trees.
“I know what we saw that day could not be explained by anyone of this earth,” one said in a recorded interview.
“I would really like some answers, verification of what we saw.’’
A schoolgirl, who is believed to have come closest to one of the objects that day, was “debriefed’’ but never returned to the school, the conference was told. A teacher’s camera was also confiscated.
The audience of more than 100 also heard there was mounting evidence to suggest the federal government kept tabs on current sightings even though it had officially closed its books.
Mr Basterfield said it was time a national network of researchers started sharing details of all ”incoming raw reports”.
”At the moment we have no idea of what UFO reports are being made around Australia,” he said. ”I would like to see somebody take that up again.’’
He said the national response unit would operate the same way as The Mutual UFO Network in the US and the French government’s official UFO investigation agency.
”The role of the team would be to receive a case, fly there, interview the witnesses, take samples, document their findings, analyse it and publish it for us all to look at. It is possible for us to do that.’’
The Manned Orbiting Laboratory (MOL) was a 1960s Air Force program with the ostensible mission to place military personnel in orbit to conduct scientific experiments to determine the “military usefulness” of placing man into space and the techniques and procedures for doing so if the need ever arose. The actual, classified, mission of the MOL program was to place a manned surveillance satellite into orbit. At the time, several military and contractor studies estimated that manned surveillance satellites could acquire photographic coverage of the Soviet Union with resolution better than the best system at the time (the first generation Gambit satellite). Additionally, the Air Force billed the MOL as a reconnaissance system that could more efficiently and quickly adjust coverage for crises and targets of opportunity than unmanned systems. The Air Force controlled development of the satellite, which was consistent with MOL’s unclassified mission, while the NRO ran development of the covert reconnaissance mission of the program, including the camera system and other subsystems.
Secretary of Defense McNamara publicly announced the start of the MOL program in December 1963. However, even though the program had support for the military and the President, it was seldom fully funded due to competition from other DoD programs, NASA, and general governmental budgetary pressure. By the time initial studies, planning, and organization were completed and the program was ready to expand into full-scale development and production in the late-60s, budgetary pressure had significantly increased due to NASA’s Apollo program and the Vietnam War. At a time when the program required increased expenditures, its budget was being slashed, and as a result, its timelines and costs were expanded and increased. With growing pressure from the expansion of the Vietnam War, and perceived duplication of effort with NASA programs, and improved performance of operating unmanned surveillance systems, in June 1969 the President cancelled the MOL program, and with it, the Air Force’s last chance to develop a manned space flight program. The MOL program operated for five and one half years and spent $1.56 billion, but never launched a manned vehicle into space.
Twenty years ago, 62 pupils at Ariel School said they saw an alien spaceship. It's still regarded as one of the most compelling events in UFO history.
Tracking down one of the Ariel School experiencers took some doing, but eventually I connected with Sarah* in what she referred to as “a most stubborn old Rhodie [white Rhodesian] bar” in downtown Harare.
Of the more than 110 children and staff who had been at the school, which sits just outside the small agricultural centre of Ruwa, when the aliens landed in 1994, she thought she was probably the only one still in the country.
“Everyone’s fucked off to Canada or the UK,” she said. “Or died.”
When it became clear to her drinking buddies that we were going to talk UFOs, eyes began to roll.
“Christ, Sê, not ET again,” someone muttered.
She ignored him.
“Whaddya wanna know? Actually, it’ll be simpler if I just shoot. It happened, OK. Sixty-two kids between the ages of about six and 12 saw the aliens land and get out of their little ships. When the kids returned to class they were completely freaked and couldn’t stop nattering about little men who looked a bit like Michael Jackson. The teachers told them to shut up, as teachers are wont to do, and classes proceeded.
“But the next day the school received a bunch of calls from parents wanting to know why their kids were spooked. It got so that the teachers started to freak out, too, and a local UFO expert called Cynthia Hind was invited to speak to everyone. It was via her, I think, that we heard about a famous shrink who was coming from the US to assess the children. What was his name now … Mack, Dr John Mack, who I heard was killed by a drunk driver a few years back.”
Dedicated investigator Hind, who died in 2000, had publicly acknowledged her own experiences with otherwordly beings in the past, and had dedicated the past decade and a half of her life to investigating UFO sightings on the African continent on behalf of the Mutual UFO Network, and then publishing her findings in the very collectable newsletter, UFO Afrinews.
I had brought along a printout of Issue 11, which I opened on the bar counter before Sarah on Hind’s article “UFO flap in Zimbabwe: Case No 95”. It begins:
“Wednesday, 14th September, 1994, was an exciting night for Southern Africa. Round about 20:50 to 21:05 hours, a pyrotechnic display of some magnificence appeared in the almost clear night skies of this part of the continent.”
An Ariel schoolchild telling her story of the alien who arrived.
Astronomers across the region soon reported that the “pyrotechnic display”, seen as far afield as Zambia and Botswana, had been a meteor shower. Hind, though, recorded receiving dozens of reports of a capsule-like fireball, trailing fire and flanked by two smaller capsules.
She also received several reports of alien sightings around the same time: a young boy and his mother reported a daylight sighting; a trucker who had seen strange beings on the road at night. And then, on September 16, Hind received the report from Ariel School, which she records as Case 96, and describes as “one of the most exciting UFO stories of this or any year”.
Childhood recollection Hind’s narrative closely mirrors Sarah’s recollection. At 10am, Hind writes, on a hot day, the children were let out for their mid-morning break. They were drawn to an area beyond their playing field of “long grass with thorn and other indigenous bushes, trees growing higgledy-piggledy fashion, and undergrowth thick and heavy enough to hide a child should he venture there”.
The teachers had all entered the staff room for a meeting and the only adult outdoors was the tuckshop mistress, who was soon swamped by children claiming they had seen “three or four objects coming into the rough bush area … disc-like objects coming in along the power lines and finally landing in the rough, among the trees. The children were a little bit afraid, although they were also curious.”
The UFO investigator goes on to record the testimonies of several of the children, who she says represented “a cross-section of Zimbabweans: black African children from several tribes, coloured children (a cross-breeding of black and white), Asian children (whose grandparents were from India) and white children, mostly Zimbabwean-born, but whose parents were either from South Africa or Britain”.
Although they all came from wealthy families (tuition at Ariel School was expensive), Hind believed their cultural differences gave rise to differing interpretations of the event, and that the differences in interpretation made the details that were common to all accounts very compelling indeed.
One of the white students, for example, “thought at first that the little man in black might have been Mrs Stevens’ gardener, but then he saw that the figure had long, straight black hair, ‘not really like [a] black [person’s] hair’, so he realised he had made a mistake!”
Some of the black children thought the short little beings were zvikwambo, or tokoloshes – the evil goblins of Shona and Ndebele folklore – and burst into tears, fearing they would be eaten.
Guy G said: “[I] could see the little man (about a metre tall) was dressed in a black, shiny suit; that he had long black hair and his eyes, which seemed lower on the cheek than our eyes, were large and elongated. The mouth was just a slit and the ears were hardly discernible.”
Parent’s disbelief Hind’s account ends with her outrage at the disbelief of the children’s’ parents.
“What a frightening indictment of our society that when we are confronted by something we don’t understand, we don’t even attempt to open our minds to the event.”
After reading the article, Sarah ordered another Castle and said: “To be perfectly honest, I don’t think you would be here talking to me now if it wasn’t for that woman [Hind].
“What happened at Ariel was certainly weird, so many kids coming back from break with such similar stories, but I doubt many people would have heard about it if Hind hadn’t made such a fuss. She was the first person to interview the kids, and got the news out to all sorts of important people, Mack included, as if, you know, finally here was some vindication.”
Hind’s descriptions of Mack from this time do indeed suggest she regarded him as something of a redeemer figure, a man who was “not only open-minded and prepared to listen, but an academic of some standing. And one who has risked his credibility with his colleagues to come out and say he believes the experiences of abductees are very real indeed.”
Who was this man, Mack, whose interest transformed a local curiosity into a study that continues to animate UFO chat rooms to this day?
I’d been told a little of his biography by a relative of mine called Nicky Carter, who after hearing of the incident from a brother at Ariel School had been the first media respondent, covering it as a producer for an SABC current affairs program called Agenda.
Prize-winning author Dr John E Mack, she said, had been a Pulitzer prize-winning author (awarded for his 1977 study of Lawrence of Arabia, A Prince of Our Disorder: The Life of TE Lawrence) and a professor of psychiatry at the Harvard Medical School.
Highly regarded, Mack had nevertheless been having a tough year professionally when Carter met him. His problems stemmed from his interest in the alien abduction phenomenon, which he had begun researching in the early 1990s and about which he had written the bestselling book Abduction: Human Encounters with Aliens.
Carter sent me Mack’s own account of the fallout. “In the spring of 1994,” he writes in his second book on the alien abduction phenomenon, Passport to the Cosmos, “one of the deans at the Harvard Medical School handed me a letter that called for the establishment of a small committee to investigate my work [on the alien abduction phenomenon].
Dr John Mack was a Pulitzer prize-winner who came under fire for his UFO research.
“After explaining vaguely that ‘concerns’ had been expressed to the university about what I was doing (although he told of no specific complaint, nor was any offered in the letter), he added pleasantly – for he had been a friend and colleague – that I would not have gotten into trouble if I had not suggested in the book [Abduction] that my findings might require a change in our view of reality, rather than saying that I had found a new psychiatric syndrome whose cause had not yet been established.”
Another peer, Paul McHugh of Johns Hopkins Medical School, was less delicate, describing Mack in the Los Angeles Times as “a brilliant fellow who occasionally loses it, and this time he’s lost it big time”.
Mack’s standard rejoinder was to point out that, although alien encounters were “not possible according to the science of the times”, they might nevertheless “turn out to be real in some way that we do not yet understand … as the bizarre reports of rocks we now call meteorites falling from the sky seemed [impossible] in the 18th century.”
Attempted ouster By mid-1994 Mack had overcome attempts at an ouster by some of his Harvard colleagues, and was planning to expand the scope of his research to include African alien encounters and abductions. A flight was booked to South Africa, where Mack had organised to meet with experiencers such as the well-known traditional healer and author Credo Mutwa (who was to tell Mack, according to Carter, who covered the interview for the SABC, about his rape by a golden-haired, blue-eyed alien female.)
As he was preparing to depart for Africa, news of the Ariel School encounter broke, and Mack adjusted his travel plans accordingly.
These were the extraordinary coincidences by which the world’s most newsworthy psychiatrist happened to land, meteorlike, in Zimbabwe. Hind recorded how he appeared on “two radio shows and one TV programme” before driving the 35km from Harare to Ruwa.
“These days were filled with exciting revelations for him,” wrote Hind.
“John was able to get through to parents and teachers and convince them that, even if they did not believe the children, it was counterproductive to accuse them of lying.”
What interested Mack was how the children’s accounts connected to things he’d been told by other of his “experiencer participants”, namely that the aliens had communicated an urgent environmental message.
In Passport to the Cosmos, Mack records that after some years of research he was “astonished to discover … in case after case, powerful messages about the human threat to the Earth’s ecology were being conveyed to the experiencers in vivid, unmistakable words and images”. He personally deemed it “quite possible that the protection of the Earth’s life is at the heart of the abduction phenomenon”.
Original interviews Snippets of Mack’s interviews with the children can still be found on YouTube today. A fifth-grader called Francis tells the gentle-eyed psychiatrist he was warned “about something that’s going to happen,” and that “pollution mustn’t be”. Eleven-year-old Emma says; “I think they want people to know that we’re actually making harm on this world and we mustn’t get too technologed [sic].”
I cued up one of the clips on my phone for Sarah, but she waved it away.
“I can’t, I can’t … no, I’ve had too much of my own experience to want to relive somebody else’s.”
After a long draw on her beer she said: “They weren’t wrong, though, about the environmental shit, were they? If you go out there now you’ll see the Miombo forests have disappeared for firewood.”
Drawings by pupils at Ariel School in Zimbabwe of the aliens’ visit to their school in September 1994.
But during my first visit to the district, what had struck me was not the state of the forests but the fact that Ariel School had continued to grow in pupil numbers, and looked to be prospering.
The khaki uniforms, the red floppy hats, the break-time chirring – it all matched the YouTube clips, only there were no longer any white students, the white farming families having all moved elsewhere as a result of the government’s radical land reform policies. The “rough area” beyond the playground had been stumped and mown into a second sports field, dusty for want of rain. I asked a few teachers I bumped into about the events of 1994, but it seemed that aspect of the school’s history had left with the farmers.
“There was his documentary being made about it at one point,” said Sarah, getting a little shaky on her stool. “An American chap. What was his name now … Randall, Randy. Ha! Anyway, that was about seven or eight years ago now, and I haven’t heard anything since.”
Exploring the frontiers I knew a little more than she did, again courtesy of my relative, who had provided local assistance to the documentary-maker. After Mack was killed in a car accident in London in 2004, some of his supporters and family members had founded the John E Mack Institute, with a mission to “explore the frontiers of human experience, to serve the transformation of individual consciousness, and to further the evolution of the paradigms by which we understand human identity”.
In 2007, to further these rather grandiose aims, a young filmmaker called Randall Nickerson had signed on to do something with the Ariel School footage. “Geez, he was sooo handsome,” said Sarah, slapping her palms against her jeans.
“I could hardly concentrate when he was interviewing me. Not only that, he understood the thing on a different level, because he was an experiencer himself, who had been quite open about his encounter. I think he even appeared on Oprah!”
I had contacted Nickerson in 2008, and because he happened to be in Cape Town running former Ariel students to ground, we arranged to meet and talk about his project. He cancelled at the last minute, though, saying he didn’t feel quite ready.
From time to time I checked the Mack Institute webpage for updates, but after a few years it seemed the project had run into financial difficulties. Then, in late 2013, two hours of footage tagged with Nickerson’s name surfaced on YouTube. I can recognise the carcass of a creative albatross when I see one, and the amorphous video dump showed every sign of being just that.
As an accidental historical record, though, it is fascinating: a trove of rural school scenes from the eve of irreversible societal change; the last generation of khaki uniforms, freckled noses and colonial English accents; and Cynthia Hind, already an anachronism in a series of pre-independence floral print dresses, and wearing what was described to me as a “Bulawayo perm”.
Tacked on at the end of the video are some snippets of interviews Nickerson conducted with former students. “It really does stick with me that something happened, something was out there,” says a young man. “I think something definitely happened,” says a young woman.
‘Amazing experience’ A former teacher says “We met up on many occasions after that and hugged and shook our heads and said that was the most amazing experience of our lives”, whereas another former student says he hasn’t talked about the event to anyone, “because they’d probably think I’m nuts”.
When I told Sarah about the video she became very agitated. “Can I see it? Oh God no, I don’t want to. What do they all say? Am I on it?” she cried.
“Ok, just show me.”
We watched the relevant part of the video, Sarah with a hand over her mouth.
“God, their accents,” she said at one point, of the now American, Australian and English tones that contrasted so sharply with the voices she had known. It crossed my mind that the truly galvanic event in all of their lives was not the UFO landing but the policy from upon high that had turned them into aliens in New York, London, or wherever.
Then again, what did I know? When the clip ended Sarah stubbed out an Everest Menthol and shook her head.
“You want to know the real message here? The real message is that this stuff can brand you for life. It undermined Mack’s credibility, became this huge unending thing for others, and it certainly fucked me up. I mean, try telling people that you live in permanent fear of these things returning one day. Try telling them that you can actually sense when they’re back in our atmosphere. They’ll think you’re a kook. All this lot do,” she said, casting mock-angry eyes down the bar at a fellow boozer, who raised his glass and said: “True, but we love you anyway, Sê.”
Despite her patently thick skin, a look of extreme sadness entered Sarah’s eyes for a moment, as she pretended to watch her fingers pulling the label from a beer bottle.
“Christ, and to think I told the family I was just popping out to Bon Marche.”

De dag dat een basisschool in Zimbabwe werd bezocht door buitenaardsen
De dag dat een basisschool in Zimbabwe werd bezocht door buitenaardsen
Twintig jaar geleden waren 62 leerlingen van een basisschool in Zimbabwe getuige van de landing van een buitenaards ruimteschip. Dat schrijft het Zuid-Afrikaanse weekblad de Mail & Guardian.
Het bleek niet gemakkelijk om de oorspronkelijke getuigen op te sporen. Uiteindelijk wist de krant contact te leggen met Sarah (pseudoniem). De overige getuigen zijn naar Canada of Groot-Brittannië verhuisd of leven niet meer, zei ze.
In september 1994 zagen 62 leerlingen tussen de zes en 12 jaar oud tijdens het speelkwartier naast de school kleine schepen waar buitenaardse wezens uit tevoorschijn kwamen. Het voorval was het gesprek van de dag op de Ariel School net buiten Ruwa. Kinderen bleven er tijdens de les over praten. Leraren zeiden dat ze hun mond moesten houden. Ouders geloofden hun kinderen niet.
Een leerlinge van Ariel vertelt over de buitenaardse bezoekers
Een dag na de gebeurtenis kreeg de school veel telefoontjes van ouders die wilden weten waarom hun kinderen zo geschrokken waren. Een lokale UFO-expert werd opgetrommeld om tekst en uitleg te geven. Er kwam ook een beroemde psychiater uit Amerika naar Zimbabwe. Deze psychiater, dr. John Mack, werd enkele jaren geleden doodgereden door een dronken automobilist.
De kinderen zagen hoe drie tot vier schotelvormige objecten langs de hoogspanningsmasten vlogen en uiteindelijk landden in het hoge gras. De kinderen waren bang, maar ook nieuwsgierig. Op de school zaten zwarte kinderen uit verschillende stammen, Aziatische kinderen met grootouders uit India en blanke kinderen met Zuid-Afrikaanse of Britse ouders.
Door de culturele verschillen hadden de kinderen allemaal een eigen kijk op de wezens. Een blanke leerling dacht dat een klein wezen in een zwart pak een tuinman was. Sommige zwarte kinderen meenden dat de wezens kwelgeesten waren en barstten in tranen uit omdat ze dachten dat ze zouden worden opgegeten. De wezens spraken met de leerlingen ‘door in hun ogen te staren’.
Een tekening van één van de schepen
Guy G., één van de leerlingen, zei: “Ik zag een kleine man (ongeveer een meter lang) gekleed in een zwart, glimmend pak. Hij had zwart haar en zijn ogen waren groot en ovaalvormig. De mond was niet meer dan een spleet en de oren waren bijna niet te onderscheiden.”
Op YouTube staan nog altijd fragmenten van interviews die dr. Mack heeft gehouden met de leerlingen. Leerling Francis vertelde de Harvard-professor dat hij door de wezens was gewaarschuwd ‘dat er iets zou gaan gebeuren’ en dat ‘milieuvervuiling moet worden bestreden’. De 11-jarige Emma zei: “Ik denk dat ze mensen willen vertellen dat we schade toebrengen aan deze wereld en dat we ons niet te veel technologisch moeten ontwikkelen.”
Voor veel leerlingen was het de meest indrukwekkende ervaring van hun leven, terwijl anderen er niet over wilden praten ‘omdat mensen dan vast en zeker zouden denken dat ze gek waren’.
Dark UFO sighting over Chicago on 8th September 2014
Dark UFO sighting over Chicago on 8th September 2014
New amazing video footage of a huge dark UFO sighting recorded in the sky above Chicago on 8th September 2014.
Witness said: Was sitting in my usual spot on the side of my house. Did a little Ce5 Meditation and this Anomaly came floating by real slow. Now most people will say that’s a balloon. But that is where we are fooled because if you stop the video and magnify the object,you will see energy all around the Et Drone. date stamp and time wrong correct above. Chicago 60652 There will be a part 2 where I have to run down the block becuse it speeds up and heads upward.
A Georgia witness at Loganville reported his cell phone, Internet and cable television reception failed during a sighting of “8 to 10 pulsating orbs” moving under 500 feet and less than 100 feet away, according to testimony in Case 59611 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The witness was outside sitting on a deck when he had an “uneasy feeling” in his stomach just as the objects were first noticed about 10:30 p.m. on August 24, 2014.
The objects were casting light onto the ground level. Pictured: Loganville, Georgia. (Credit: Google)
“I noticed a flash of light out of the corner of my eye,” the witness stated. “When I looked in the direction of the flash there were 8 to 10 orb-like lights close to the tree top level doing what looked like figure 8’s around each other for about 10 to 15 minutes.”
The witness described lights on the objects.
“These orbs were casting light to the ground and I could see the shadows of the trees on the ground.”
But what was more disturbing at the time was the failure of three utilities.
“In the time the orbs were in my sight my cell phone would not work and my Internet and TV both went out. While watching the orbs the ‘uneasy’ feeling I had in my stomach went away and I had a sense of calm come over me. All I could do was stand there and look as the orbs slowly moved from east-northeast to west-southwest.”
The witness believes military helicopters were also in the area.
The sound of what the witness believed was a Blackhawk helicopter came into the area and seemed to be following the orbs. Pictured: Loganville, Georgia. (Credit: Google)
“If I had to guess they were moving at maybe 5 mph or slower. After about 5 minutes of the orbs leaving my sight there was the sound of what I believe was a Blackhawk helicopter following the orbs. I did not see the helicopter but they have a very distinct sound.”
Loganville is a city located in Walton County with a half portion of the city located in Gwinnett County, Georgia, population 10,458. Georgia MUFON is investigating. The above quotes were edited for clarity.
Georgia has a current UFO Alert Rating of 5 with a low number of recent reports nationally. Georgia had 12 UFO reports in August 2014 – the 16th highest reporting state – while California had 99 reports as the highest reporting state. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.
The UFO Alert Rating System is based on five levels – 1 through 5 – where states with 150 or more reports for the month are rated an Alert 1; states with 100 or more reports are rated an Alert 2; 25 reports or more for the month are rated an Alert 3; 13 or more reports are rated an Alert 4; and those states with less than 13 reports for the month are an Alert 5.
By Brian D. Birch – I am a ‘seventy-five’ year old, who not only has had close encounters with UFO’s but I came ‘face to face’ with two of the ‘occupants’ when I was aged ‘nineteen’. Another ‘nut case’ many might remark (if not to my face rest assured) I have after all no witness to that encounter that took place here in the UK as my brother Dennis departed these shores to live in Australia in 1969. He would however attest to that which took place ten years earlier on the first Sunday of January 1959 because he shared that terrifying encounter with me. My family members are fully aware of what my brother Den and I experienced that traumatic early morning hour. Because I have reiterated that account of that ‘mind blowing’ experience countless times since. It happened at approximately 0200hrs when Den and I were en-route home along the A3 route from Portsmouth, on Dennis’s 125cc BSA Bantam motorcycle. He had taken our younger brother, Rob back to his Royal Marine Barracks near Portsmouth. Both Rob and I were serving in the Royal Marines and our ‘two weeks’ Christmas leave had ‘overlapped’ one another’s by one week (his leave commencing one week prior to mine). I had taken Rob’s ‘railway warrant’ – which I was entitled to as a fellow Royal Marine – to meet both brothers at ‘Portsmouth and Southsea’ railway station, Dennis having taken Rob there on the pillion of his motorbike. My intention was to say ‘goodbye’ to Rob at the station and then to return home with Dennis. I had little else to do and I welcomed the ride and the company. I remember that neither brother was at the station when I arrived there and I had to wait some time before Den turned up. His motorbike had incurred a ‘front tyre’ puncture although I have a feeling that I was late arriving at Portsmouth and Southsea railway station through some delay or other. When I at last met up with Den he told me that Rob had continued onward to his barracks as he had to be there by ‘three minutes to midnight’. Thus, I mounted the pillion of Den’s motorbike well after midnight and very soon we left Portsmouth far behind. I remember that it was bitter cold and I clung behind my brother’s body to shield myself from that bitter cold air. I wore only a light, ‘blue’ summer jacket and light ‘fawn’ summer trousers. Aside from my uniform I possessed few civilian clothes.
Thus we rode along the A3. I was silent, alone with thoughts of my own return to my RM barracks a week later. Conversing was out of the question. Even shouting loudly was ineffective in the slipstream as we sped along. The whole route was bereft of traffic and eventually we found ourselves riding around the perimeter of the ‘Devil’s Punchbowl’ at Hindhead. At one point, as we were almost about to leave the the ‘Bowl behind, so Den suddenly steered the motorbike onto the grass and the engine cut. “Problem?” Dennis assured me there wasn’t a problem but that it was ‘a good spot to take a breather and to spend a penny!’ So we stood there on the swathe of grass overlooking the ‘deep bowl-shaped’ valley stretching away before us. The sounds of the wind and of the motorbike engine took several minutes to disperse from our ears and it was good to get some respite from that bitter cold wind. Then, as the ‘ghost’ sound of wind and engine dispersed, so we noticed a strange sound emanating from down in the Punchbowl itself. A sound impossible to describe except maybe that it was almost ‘musical’ to the ears ‘like the asdic of a submarine and yet at the same time really nothing like it’. We had never heard such a weird sound before and there was nothing with which to otherwise compare it. Puzzled and exceedingly curious we elected to make our way down into the ‘Punchbowl’ to discover the source of that mysterious sound.
There was an initial very steep slope of maybe ‘thirty feet’ or so that we were obliged to descend on our ‘backsides’. Then, with Den leading the way we were able to continue on downwards along a barely discernible but more gently descending track. How long we were making our way steadily deeper, I don’t know but we were quite a long way down there and to me the weird ‘musical sound’ was becoming ever more mysterious and much louder as we came closer to its ‘source’. Whats more, as we drew closer to that ‘source’ I developed a strong sense of ‘unease’ that persisted as we proceeded. Soon afterwards Den stopped abruptly and turned to me to express that he had ‘a bad feeling’ and added “I think we should turn back!” Looking back in the direction of whence we had come I could see that it we had in fact travelled an uncomfortable distance away and in hushed tones I readily agreed with my brother that maybe we should indeed turn back. Literally at that precise moment, before we had even turned around, there came a sudden momentarily silence as that weird sound abruptly ceased. What occurred next is equally difficult to describe. There was a sound, almost like that of ‘displaced air’ I can explain it no better than that. Then, this ‘sound’ rose vertically into the air, very close to where we stood. We both dropped to the ground instinctively in an effort to silhouette the ‘object’ against that brilliant backdrop of stars but we saw nothing even though we were able to ‘follow’ the path of travel by the strange ‘sound’ it was emitting. It appeared to travel somehow away to our ‘right’ and then ‘swooped’ back around to head back towards us.
The terrific ‘crash’ that ensued as it struck the ground was deafening and ought to have been heard as far away as Guildford, my thoughts at that time! It had me comparing it to that of a large airliner ‘crash landing’. There then followed the distinct loud sound of scrub being ‘flattened’ in its path as it seemed to ‘skid’ along under the inertia of its descent and then to finally come to a stop some little distance, maybe ‘twenty to thirty feet’ in front of us. I clearly have, etched into my mind, a distinct memory of the noise of thin branches or scrub scraping along an obviously ‘metallic’ fuselage, followed by the final ‘scraping’ sound as that branch broke free. A ‘flying object’ of some sort had come to a halt. I stood staring at the bushes from where the sound of that ‘crash landing’ had come. I (we) had seen ‘nothing’ and yet this ‘flying object’ by the very sound it made as it hit the ground indicated a large, exceedingly heavy if ‘invisible’ craft and in my head the word UFO was at the forefront. Then, almost immediately my attention was drawn to ‘something’ approaching us from the direction that the UFO had ‘landed’. I stared ahead, my mind struggling to believe what was actually taking place. Then ‘it’ emerged. I will describe what we saw, as best to my memory as possible for I was overcome by a feeling of sheer terror. This figure stood some ‘eight to ten feet’ tall. It appeared to ‘glide’ rather than to walk. It also appeared to be floating some ‘two feet’ or so off the ground. It stopped in front of me, so close that I could have touched it. I was literally paralysed with fear, an adrenalin rush so great that it had an opposite effect and I stood there transfixed, unable to move. Then, a second figure identical to the first, ‘glided’ out from the same direction and stood to the left of the first one, as viewed from my position. Both figures seemed to be ‘floating off the ground’ and had seemed to glide. The ‘body seemed composed of some sort of black material that was convoluted, with like lengthwise ‘folds’. The ‘head’ was encased in an elongated glass helmet’ and where the eyes would be was a single, large round-shaped ‘green eye’ or light. Today I would liken it to a large LED (Light Emitting Diode) but I am not so sure such devices existed at that time. Mercifully (I felt) I could not see the features behind the ‘glass’ but I had an uncanny and distinct feeling that I would’t want to see behind the ‘glass’ anyway.
I am unable to clearly describe my feelings except for one thought within the sheer terror that overwhelmed me. ‘This cannot be happening, but it IS!’ Amazingly thoughts of ‘those in government would not believe what is happening to me right now but they are fast asleep in their bed’s and NOT here in this Punchbowl with me, seeing what I am seeing!’ I clearly recall those thoughts. I seem to remember something else, a ‘sickly odour’. Was this the ‘odour of fear’ or did it come from those two aliens? I truthfully do not know! Such thoughts were fleeting, coming to me in a moment of utmost terror. My second thought was of the sudden need to ‘look at another human being’ and almost in slow motion and with great concentration of effort I managed to turn my head ‘left’ to look at my brother. Why ‘left’ when he had been standing on my ‘right?’ I’m at a loss to explain that one. The two aliens stood a mere ‘few feet’ away, within touching distance. Utilising all my concentration I slowly, so very slowly and ‘mechanically’ managed to turn my head to look upon my brother. A second shock now struck me as I saw that I was standing there alone. The shock of this realisation galvanised my hitherto ‘paralysed’ body into sudden ‘action’ and turning my body to face the direction that I was facing, for the thought came to me that if I looked back at them again I would not escape. I then ran! That headlong, terror-stricken flight was like a nightmare in itself because I was expecting to be seized from behind. My thought was that I would surely not be allowed to escape after what I had just witnessed. I had no sense of direction at all, I remember only that my one and only desperate thought was to put as much distance between me and ‘them’ and as possible. I ran, seemingly blindly and I could plainly hear high pitched screaming as I ran. Those screams seemed to be apart from me but may well have come from me, I truly don’t know! All I remember was that headlong, panic-stricken flight as ‘running in a nightmare’ and the full expectancy that I would ‘not be allowed to escape’. The next image as I ran so blindly was of finding myself inexplicably at the base of the ‘thirty foot’ steep incline that we had initially descended. How did I, in that panic-stricken flight manage to find my way back to where we had descended into the Punch Bowl? I was and am unable to explain that one either.
There, ahead of me and scrambling up that steep incline was my brother. I had ‘caught up’ with him and in later years he told me that he was on a ‘rise’ before reaching that incline and that when he looked back to check that I was with him he saw to his horror, that I was still standing at the original spot with two aliens clearly seen towering over me. By the time he had scaled that steep incline, I had caught him up. He must have seen me but seconds before I had turned and fled. As a very fit, young Royal Marine and at the same time ‘fuelled’ with sheer panic, I can answer that one quite clearly. As we feverishly tried to climb that steep incline so we would slip back down a ‘foot’ for every ‘three’ we made upwards. Eventually we made the top. Den mounted his motorbike, ‘kick started’ it and I leapt onto the pillion and away we sped in great haste. Even as we rode at speed along that road I was half expecting to be seized and pulled off that motor-bike and I clung tenaciously, my arms around my brother’s waist. I remember that just before we reached the city of Guildford, eleven miles on, Den pulled over and cut the engine. A tall, long ash fence lay close to us and against this we dropped onto our haunches unable to believe what had happened and how we had escaped a ‘fate worse than death’. I remember nothing more after collapsing against that fence. I haven memory of arriving home, not even of the rest of my leave. I do not to this day remember returning to my barracks nor of the intense training that followed. I have hitherto told no one outside of the family of our experience at the Punchbowl that ‘never to be forgotten’ night.
Strangely, I never forgave my brother for ‘deserting’ me down there. For three years I had no contact with him. Then, I heard that my brother was in an Isolation Hospital at Feltham, where he lived and that he was in a ‘serious condition’. Dennis had contracted ‘Hepatitis C’ and relenting, I went to visit him. What I saw shocked me and totally melted my anger. Den looked like a ‘skeleton’ with ‘yellow skin’ drawn over it. He was badly jaundiced and had almost died. A priest had closed his eyes when Den suddenly opened them and the nurse had screamed. It had been a very ‘close call’. It was ‘years’ later that Den explained that he had thought I was behind him when he ran. That only on reaching high ground had he turned to look back and saw that I was not with him but was standing there still with those two ‘beings’ towering over me. His only thought then was to ‘escape and to report what had happened’. Luckily for me that I managed to ‘just’ catch him up before he’d gained the top of that steep incline, above which his motorbike was parked. It was all of ‘thirty miles’ journey back to where I lived. Besides, poor Den would no doubt have been taken for psychiatric observation. OR charged with possible ‘murder’ associated with my ‘disappearance’. Do I believe in ‘aliens?’ DO I WHAT? Oh yes, ‘they’ exist for sure! You won’t find them when you are in the pub, watching TV or fast asleep in your bed, although I must hesitate here because I have since read of abductions of hitherto sleeping persons. There was something else that is relevant to this true story. When I finally talked with Dennis and asked him outright “why did you desert me down there?’ He told me “it was those small creatures with red eyes that had almost formed a circle around you”. There were hundreds of them. I never thought I would see you again!” I had not seen these ‘red eyed’ creatures but then, I had not been looking back!
Many years later, on desolate Dartmoor in Devonshire, late one night, on the Northern Moor out of Okehampton, was a strange arc of brilliant white light. Another brother, Jim and his teenage son and daughter were with us. We decided to look closer at this strange arc of bright white light behind a high rocky Tor. The road to that part of the Moor was narrow, too narrow to ‘reverse turn’ and so would necessitate continuing a few miles further to the tiny ’roundabout’ or ‘doughnut’ to come back on ourselves. After driving along this narrow road, flanked on either side by a steep ‘drop’ onto a boulder strewn moor for some miles, I began to feel a strong sense of apprehension, a strange feeling of danger, my sixth sense at work! This feeling had barely been with me for long when brother Jim suggested that we should ‘turn back’ because he ‘felt it was dangerous to continue’. However, I had spotted something else, something that made my heart race. I saw literally ‘hundreds if not thousands’ of ‘pairs of red eyes’. Those ‘red eyes’ did not belong to animals because no animal was capable of such speed and able to traverse that boulder-strewn terrain and the deep craters littering the North Moor, especially at night, besides which the number of those pairs of ‘red eyes’ was vast. My blood ran cold as I remembered what Den had seen at the Punch Bowl, ‘red eyes’ exactly what we were seeing there now on that Moor. And without doubt were seeking to surround us. Keeping my mounting panic and concern to myself I heard Jim again express his concern at continuing and I responded with mounting anger due to fear and frustration that I could not ‘bloody well turn around’ as the road was far too narrow and too high above the moor for the wheels to reach the ground once the wheels left the road. I felt that we had no choice but to continue on to that small ’roundabout’ or ‘doughnut’ that I estimated was about ‘four’ miles further on. I was driving a Mk 1600 1 Ford Consul and brother Jim asked to get out to ‘see if there was a place we do a reverse turn’. All too soon he called out “here Bri, you can reverse here!” I replied “are you sure Jim?” I had doubts, in that the ‘drop’ appeared to be too deep. He assured me that it was ‘okay’. The rapidly moving ‘red eyes’ had by now spread out ahead of us, crossed over the road and having split into two vast ‘groups’ either side of that road, both were rushing speedily in our direction as if to encircle us. Where had I heard this before? It was Dennis and the Punch Bowl saga all over again. Thousands of them it seemed to me to be. Now I knew it was vital that we escaped. The memory of the Punch Bowl left little doubt in my mind as to what those ‘red eyes’ were,’what’ they belonged to. Trying hard to control the fast rising panic within me I shakily expressed my doubts that the ‘drop’ was too deep and would plant the car on it’s chassis before the wheels contacted the ground. “No, it’s okay!” Jim’s words were hardly convincing but by now close to panic myself I drove slowly, turning the steering wheel ‘hard over’ to greatly effect the reverse turn and trusting Jim’s ‘observation’ I put the gear into reverse and backed the car slowly off the road. A sudden ‘crash’ ensued and the wheels, it was rear wheel drive, spun above the surface of the ground. We were now completely trapped and helpless! Jim and Jimmy got out of the car and went to the rear. Christine was sitting behind me as her Dad and brother were trying to lift the car back onto the road, without success.
I had seldom experienced such fear as I sat there helplessly watching those rapidly speeding ‘entities’ that would soon have encircled and been upon us. No one else in my car had as yet seen them. Jim and his son were trying to lift the rear of that 1600cc Ford Consul back onto the road. Jim was a brawny, a strong fellow but all that he and his son achieved was to ‘lift’ the car only so far a little way ‘off’ its suspension. The wheels however remained firmly on the ground. The idea fleetingly entered my head to get out and to run those ‘nine miles’ back to Okehampton, but how when those ‘things’ were so fleetingly fast? Besides which, I couldn’t leave Christine and whatever happened we were not capable of travelling ‘nine miles’ on foot to escape those rapidly speeding ‘beings’. Then as Jim was trying without success to lift the car, so Christine suddenly glanced over to her ‘right’; saw the hundreds of ‘red eyes’ pouring like a flood down that sloping terrain towards us, screamed loudly “What are those? What are those?” Her loud scream signalled for the movement of the car on it’s springs to momentarily cease, obviously Jim had paused to see what had frightened his daughter. This was then followed by the sudden and unbelievable lifting of the car bodily in such a way as to slew it around at the same time so that it was facing our escape route out of there. Jim and Jimmy dived into the car and opening the throttle I drove out of that place like the proverbial ‘bat out of Hell’. I could scarcely believe our lucky escape. It is said that fear can induce enormous ‘reserves’ of strength in a crisis and that is what happened with Jim.
I drove as fast as was safely possible on that narrow road that night and upon reaching the top of a hill, some ‘mile or two’ further on, I stopped the car, engine left running, got out and looked back, Jim likewise. For several seconds we saw nothing but then, there they were, those two vast swarms of ‘red eyes’ pursuing us, on both sides of that road. I don’t exaggerate their numbers, to me that seemed to run in ‘hundreds if not thousands’. They ‘appeared’ to me to be small in stature, that was my impression because it was dark. They certainly travelled at speed over a very dangerous and rough terrain with many deep ‘craters’ and strewn boulders. After about ‘five’ stops, atop a hill (a precaution in the event that the car stalled and would not re start we would coast down). Each time we stopped and looked back so a ‘minute or so would pass then suddenly, there they were, continuing their pursuit of us. On the ‘last’ hill I was able to see the lights of ‘Okehampton’ ahead of us, on our ‘right’. We stopped here and again looked back. This time however we saw nothing more of those ‘red eyed creatures’.
Dear reader, whether you believe my true narrative I leave with you. I can but sincerely express that it happened as I have recorded it. As a ‘reluctant’ ufologist I have written of this ‘alien encounter’ quite some time ago, it was not published on the site I sent it to, neither was it even acknowledged. I wrote it out of sincere interest and possibly in the hope of eliciting a similar experience from others who maybe experienced an ‘extra terrestrial’ identical to mine. For what it’s worth I have made ‘pilgrimage’ to that same area several times since, without ‘success’ except for two occasions when I heard that same ‘musical sound ‘fly’ over not so far overhead, just above tree height in fact. Nothing was visible although the sound indicated it had passed over the top of the tall pine trees through which our path led. ‘My’ car (borrowed from my younger brother) was parked some ‘half mile’ away at a car-park off the A3 and unable to contain my excitement as my brother said to me “Brian, I have never doubted your story but hearing that sound for myself, well it is certainly not of this World!” I suggested we return to the car, have a much needed coffee to steady our nerves, grab the portable ‘excuse for a tape-recorder’ (a ‘tinny’ Woolworth job) and endeavour to capture that weird sound”. We made it to the car-park and to the coffee when suddenly brilliant lights lit up the car from behind. A rap on the window and I saw a policeman accompanied by a ‘special’. I wound the window down. He asked “what are you doing here?” My short ‘fuse’ at this offensive intrusion along with my irate words to the effect that it was a ‘free country’ and to ‘clear off’ (well, ‘clear’ was not exactly the word I used ) did not go down well because a second patrol car arrived and my brother and I were handcuffed and incarcerated in separate cells at Godalming Police Station. How could we ‘explain’ that we were ‘UFO hunting? The police cells that we spent six hours in being infinitely the better alternative to a mental hospital!
This incarceration was due to the ‘copper’ opening the boot of the car and discovering a ‘twelve bore’ shotgun that I had placed there, intending to shoot rabbits the following morning. I was accused of being ‘Harry Roberts’ (the guy who had shot a policeman dead, although this man was already in police custody in 1966). Raymond and I were released at 0600hrs the following morning, without charge! I have had other experiences of UFO’s one of which was no rest distance away out at sea off Brighton in Sussex. It made no sound, gave the undoubted impression of being immense in size, and moved slowly and silently just above the sea, emerging from a fog bank on the West side to vanish silently into the fog bank on the East side. It was followed then by a second, identical ‘saucer shaped UFO’ with a ‘bee hive’ like dome on top and ‘small’ portholes’ around the circumference of the body. Time being 0500hrs. I had been sea-fishing at the time of the occurrence. I also had a frightening experience whilst under canvas at that same seaside resort of Brighton. But that, as they say, is another story!

Over the past century, Scarborough’s tourism trade has been dominated by holidaymakers hellbent on fish, chips and seafront strolls.
But if Scarborough Council want visitors to keep flocking to the coast, it should put less emphasis on buckets and spades – and instead focus on little green men.
That’s at least the view of local alien hunter Russ Kellett, who feels the authority is missing out on the “goldmine” that is UFO tourism.
He claims the borough is a hotbed for close encounters, and in paranormal circles, is as synonymous with flying saucers as it is with donkey rides.
“There’s more going on with UFOs in Scarborough than in Roswell,” said Filey’s Russ, who claims he was once abducted by ‘wetsuit’ clad 9ft aliens.
“We have some really famous UFO sightings around here, and if I was the council I would have banners up saying ‘Welcome to the British UFO capital’.”
Several American extra terrestrial hotspots have recently began peddling UFO tourism to stargazers in a bid to bring in extra revenue.
While it’s currently an alien concept to tourism boards in this country, Mr Kellett feels it could prove lucrative should the council pursue it.
And with the authority’s recent tourism roadmap revealing an extra three million visitors a year are wanted in Scarborough over the next decade, the man behind that report said he will “look at anything” if it benefits the borough.
And Cllr David Chance feels it raises a legitimate point that the council should think outside the box if the borough is to remain a tourist magnet.
“UFOs are not something I’ve thought about but we are always looking at innovative schemes,” said the cabinet member. “We won’t discount anything.”
However, the council seemed less receptive to the idea, with a spokesperson adding: “Our tourism strategy concentrates on a number of key themes and target markets.
“But this particular area of interest isn’t one of them.”
Managua (AFP) – A mysterious explosion that rocked Nicaragua’s crowded capital Managua, creating a large crater, appears to have been caused by a small meteorite, officials said Sunday.
Amazingly, in a sprawling city of 1.2 million people, the impact near the international airport did not cause any known injuries, but it did leave a crater measuring 12 meters (39 feet) across and was felt throughout the capital late on Saturday.
Nicaraguan authorities believe it was a piece of the small asteroid dubbed “2014 RC,” which passed very close to Earth on Sunday and was estimated by astronomers to be about 20 meters big, or the size of a house.
“We are convinced that this was a meteorite. We have seen the crater from the impact,” said Wilfredo Strauss of the Seismic Institute.
The meteorite appeared to have hurtled into a wooded area near the airport around midnight and the hit was so large that it registered on the instruments Strauss’s organization uses to size up earthquakes.
“You can see two waves: first, a small seismic wave when the meteorite hit earth, and then another stronger one, which is the impact of the sound,” he said.

Government officials and experts visited the impact site on Sunday.
One of them, William Martinez, said it was not yet clear if the meteorite burned up completely or if it had been blasted into the soil.
“You can see mirror-like spots on the sides of the crater from where the meteorite power-scraped the walls,” Martinez said.
Government spokeswoman, First Lady Rosario Murillo, said Managua would be in contact with the US Geological Service to try to get more information about “this fascinating event” in the Central American nation, one of Latin America’s poorest countries.
People who live near the crater told local media they heard a blast they took for an explosion, and that liquid, sand and dust were blown through the air, which smelled like something had burned.
There were no reported injuries because the impact was in a wooded spot, and flights at the airport were not affected.
NASA said last week that the asteroid 2014 RC, at the time of closest approach, would be approximately one-tenth the distance from the center of Earth to the moon, or about 25,000 miles (40,000 kilometers).
It had been projected to be roughly over New Zealand at the time of its closest approach, which astronomers had calculated would be on Sunday at about 1818 GMT.
POACHERS CLOSE ENCOUNTER IN 1880 ENGLAND Circa 1880 …… PADESWOOD ENGLAND
A sighting of a UFO was made in the 1880s by miners-turned poachers at Padeswood, near Mold, who were disturbed by a “swirling ball of smoke with tongues of flame”. Richard Holland explains… It’s a common assumption that the UFO is a modern phenomenon belonging to the Space Age, but this is not the case. Strange lights in the sky have been causing conjecture for centuries. According to Buckley historian James Bentley some striking coal miners encountered what today we would call a UFO way back in the 1880s. Mr Bentley heard the story from relatives of two of the eye-witnesses. It seems that, starved of wages and therefore of food, a gang of miners dared to risk poaching on land belonging to one of the mine owners. If they had been caught it would have meant eviction, and possibly transportation which is why the following story was kept under wraps for so long. One dark moonless night the miners crept down to some fields at Padeswood, near Mold, to collect some snares previously left there. Suddenly they felt tense and afraid, as if someone was watching them.
Glancing up, they saw a large, purplish-red luminous ball hovering above them! Silently it descended into the next field. At first the terrified poachers hid their heads under their nets but shortly, on feeling a lessening in the tension in the air, one of their number dared to peer over the hedge. A “swirling ball of smoke with small tongues of flame issuing from the base, was lifting off the ground”. The men ran home and vowed each other to secrecy. Several days later the bravest of the bunch returned to collect the gear they had left behind in their panic. There was no sign of the UFO, but where they had seen it land there was now a wide, black circle of scorched grass.
Small meteorite leaves 40ft wide crater in Nicaragua
A small meteorite landed near the international airport in the Nicaraguan capital, Managua, on Saturday night, government officials say.
Residents reported hearing a loud bang and feeling the impact, which left a crater 12m (40ft) wide and 5m deep.
Government spokeswoman Rosario Murillo said the meteorite seemed to have broken off an asteroid which was passing close to Earth.
She said international experts had been called in to investigate further.
No-one was hurt when it hit the wooded area near the international airport and an air force base.
An adviser to Nicaragua’s Institute of Earth Studies (Ineter), Wilfried Strauch, said he was “convinced it was a meteorite” which caused the impact.
Picture shows an impact crater made by a small meteorite in a wooded area near Managua’s international airport.
Experts studying the crater said it was not clear whether the meteorite had disintegrated upon impact or had been blasted into soil.
Locals said they heard a large blast just before midnight local time and reported a burning smell.
“We thought it was a bomb because we felt an expansive wave,” Jorge Santamaria told Associated Press news agency.
Ineter scientist Jose Millan said that “we need to celebrate the fact that it fell in an area where, thank God, it didn’t cause any danger to the population”.
Managua, which has more than a million inhabitants is densely populated.
“All the evidence that we’ve confirmed at the site corresponds exactly with a meteorite and not with any other type of event,” he said.
“We have the seismic register which coincides with the time of impact, and the typical characteristic that it produces a cone in the place of impact,” he added.
Astronomer Humberto Saballos said the meteorite could have broken off from the 2014RC asteroid which passed Earth at the same time.
2014RC, which is the size of a house, came closest to earth at 18:18 GMT on Sunday, when it passed over New Zealand at a distance of about 40,000km (25,000 miles).
The asteroid was first discovered on 31 August and, at its closest approach, was about one-tenth of the distance from the centre of Earth to the Moon, Nasa said in a statement.
It is expected to orbit near Earth again in the future.
In February 2013, a meteorite exploded over Chelyabinsk in Central Russia, injuring more than 1,000 people.
Nasa currently tracks more than 11,000 asteroids in orbits that pass relatively close to Earth. – AP
It is one of the world’s greatest murder mysteries which has baffled investigators for more than a century.
But now an author and self confessed “armchair detective” claims to have solved perhaps the most notorious whodunit ever, and discovered who Jack the Ripper was.
Russell Edwards claims Aaron Kosminski, a 23 year-old Polish immigrant who ended up dying in an asylum, was “definitely, categorically and absolutely” the man behind the grisly killing spree in 1888 in London’s East End.
Mr Edwards said a blood-stained shawl he bought in 2007 after an auction in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, held vital DNA evidence which led him to the killer.
He said: “I’ve got the only piece of forensic evidence in the whole history of the case. I’ve spent 14 years working on it, and we have definitively solved the mystery of who Jack the Ripper was.
“Only non-believers that want to perpetuate the myth will doubt. This is it now – we have unmasked him.”
Jack the Ripper murdered at least five women, slashing their throats, removing some of their internal organs and leaving their mutilated bodied in Whitechapel’s darkened alleyways.
Mr Edwards, 48, from Barnet, north London, was “captivated” by the murder mystery and had been investigating it in his spare time, but had come to the conclusion it could never be solved.
But then in 2007 he saw a shawl found by the body of Catherine Eddowes, one of the Ripper’s victims, was up for sale.
He bought it, and enlisted the help of Jari Louhelainen, an expert in molecular biology, who used pioneering techniques to find DNA from her blood and that of the killer.
He said: “Here I am with the shawl and possibly the evidence to solve the most unsolvable murder in English criminal history. But where do I start? That was the big question.
“I enlisted the help of Jari and we embarked on a three-and-a-half year journey.
“When we discovered the truth it was the most amazing feeling of my entire life.”
Mr Edwards said the discovery 126 years after the murders proves beyond doubt that Kosminski – one of the six key suspects commonly cited as the Ripper – was the actual killer.
He said the shawl had been taken by acting Sergeant Amos Simpson, who was on duty the night of Eddowes’s death and wanted it for his wife.
But horrified at the blood-soaked wrap, she never wore it, and it was stored away and passed down through the generations until it came to auction seven years ago.
Mr Edwards said: “Thank God the shawl has never been washed, as it held the vital evidence.”
The author, who said he was part-inspired to take up the search for the killer after watching the Johnny Depp film From Hell about the Ripper murders, said police had identified Kosminski as a suspect, but never had enough evidence to bring him to trial.
Kosminski was a Polish Jewish immigrant who, fleeing persecution in his Russia-controlled homeland, came with his family to England in 1881 and lived in Mile End Old Town.
He was admitted to a string of lunatic asylums, where he died in 1899 of gangrene in the leg.
Prahlad Jani claims he’s had no need for food or water, for 65 Years
“I feel no need for food and water,” states Prahlad Jani, a seventy-six year old Indian ascetic who lives in a cave near the Ambaji temple in the state of Gujarat. Mr. Jani claims that he has not had food or fluids to drink for the last sixty-five years. At the age of seven years he left home in search of spiritual unfoldment. Jani states that at the age of eleven years he was blessed by a goddess. He claims that since that blessing he has gained his sustenance from nectar that filters down through a hole in his palate, and has not passed urine or stools since then. Mr. Jani explained, “I get the elixir of life from the hole in my palate, which enables me to go without food and water.” Almost daily Mr. Jani enters a state of Samadhi characterized by extreme bliss and enormous light and strength. He says that he has never experienced medical problems. He says that he did not speak for a period of forty-five years.
In November 2003, after over a year of coaxing, Prahlad Jani was finally persuaded to participate in a scientific research study. A medical research team of twenty-one specialists, headed by Dr. Sudhir V. Shah, had Mr. Jani under twenty-four hours of observation for ten days at the Sterling Hospital in Ahmedabad. The team’s research expertise included cardiology, neurology, urology, gastroenterology, ophthalmology, renal function, pulmonary function, ENT analysis, psychiatry, general medicine, and other specialities. A series of investigations were done on Mr. Jani in each of these areas according to a pre-determined protocol, and additional tests were carried out as per suggestions of the team. At the conclusion of their intensive investigations the team’s doctors were left with an unexplained mystery, unable to disprove Mr. Jani’s claims. Read more at psychedelicadventure

Scientists have determined that oxygen-producing life forms appeared around 3 billion years ago.
Based on the work of researchers at Trinity College Dublin and Presidency University in Kolkata, the discovery suggests that oxygen-producing organisms responsible for making it possible for more complex life forms to evolve first appeared on Earth 60 million years earlier than previously believed.
The discovery was made by measuring uranium-lead isotope decay in the rocks to find evidence of oxygen-based soil formation.
“This is a very exciting finding, which helps to fill a gap in our knowledge about the evolution of the early Earth,” said study lead author Quentin Crowley.
“This paleosol from India is telling us that there was a short-lived pulse of atmospheric oxygenation and this occurred considerably earlier than previously envisaged.”
While micro-organisms certainly existed earlier than 3 billion years ago, it wasn’t until this time that some of them evolved the ability to produce oxygen through photosynthesis. Read more at IBN Live
Science Channel is set to explore a highly debated topic within the field of UFO research. Are extraterrestrial civilizations trying to shut down our nuclear weapons? This Tuesday, on The Unexplained Files, hear from retired USAF officer Robert Salas, Paul Stonehill, and others.
A release from Science Channel explains, “From the U.S. to Great Britain and Russia, senior military personnel worldwide have witnessed strange UFOs over nuclear installations. In some instances they have reported that all nuclear warheads became inoperable when the UFOs are overhead. In this all new episode of THE UNEXPLAINED FILES, former military officers believe the U.S. government and others know the answer, and aren’t revealing all they know to the public.”
The all new episode of The Unexplained Files airs this Tuesday, September 9th at 10 PM ET/PT on Science Channel.
A witness captured video of a strange light in the sky over Lake Havasu City, Arizona on the evening of July 14, 2014.
The unidentified light hovers in the sky, then slowly descends into what the witness surmises is SARA Park in the southeastern park of the city. Although the witness states that the object changes color, that behavior is not apparent in the video.

Local paper Today’s News-Herald says that “no reports of alien activity or strange aircraft have been reported at SARA Park on July 13 or the following days.” But Dennis Freyermuth, chief investigator for the Phoenix Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) is investigating the sighting. The paper explains that Freyermuth could not confirm any aircraft activity in the area on the evening in question. And, unfortunately, he has not been able to locate any additional witnesses. Even the four witnesses who were present when the video was recorded have been “unavailable.”
Because no other witnesses reported the light in the sky, Freyermuth believes that, if others observed the UFO, they “knew what it was and paid no attention to it.”
“Right now I have no other supporting evidence other than this video clip and (the recorder’s) statements,” he told the paper. “I can’t come up with anything else to verify something unusual . . . Based on my observation it doesn’t look like an E.T. event.”
According to Freyermuth, Phoenix MUFON, which covers all of Arizona, typically receives fifteen to twenty-five UFO sighting reports each month. But he cautiously points out that ninety-five percent of those sightings can be explained.
A researcher believes Australia needs a dedicated civilian group tasked with investigating UFOs.

The idea was proposed by longtime UFO researcher Keith Basterfield at the recent Victorian UFO action conference in Victoria, Australia. He stated, “At the moment we have no idea of what UFO reports are being made around Australia . . . I would like to see somebody take that up again.”
Basterfield started researching unexplained aerial phenomena in the 1960s, and has been involved with multiple UFO research groups including the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) and the Aerial Phenomena Research Organization (APRO). The Herald Sun reports that Basterfield suggests modeling Australia’s national response unit after MUFON and GEIPAN, a unit of the French Space Agency charged with investigating UFOs.
“The role of the team would be to receive a case, fly there, interview the witnesses, take samples, document their findings, analyse it and publish it for us all to look at,” he explains. “It is possible for us to do that.”
At the sold-out Victorian UFO action conference, Basterfield also proposed a three-day symposium dedicated to the still-unidentified 1966 Westall UFO incident, a case in which hundreds of students, staff, and nearby residents watched a UFO hover, land, and quickly fly away. A weather balloon was recently offered as a potential explanation for the incident. But witnesses and attendees at the recent conference questioned this assertion. Basterfield explained, “I know of at least one Australian researcher who is sitting on some very detailed information about this case supplied by an informant and I would like to see them invited to share the knowledge with us all.”
There is significant UFO activity in Australia, with several interesting sightings regularly reported in the media. Recently, the head of a UFO research group in Queensland reported a spike in UFO reports in the past few months. “We get about 100 calls a year and across Australia all of the UFO research groups get up to 800,” she explained. “That’s just the reported sightings – a lot go unreported.”
Basterfield believes that establishing a quick response team to investigate UFO sightings across Australia within hours of them being reported would greatly aid in identifying and better understanding the active UFO presence over Australia.
THE Rendlesham Forest UFO case or better known as the “British Roswell”, is a far more significant event than Roswell.
The Rendlesham incident has such a large number of highly credible witnesses on two separate nights, and a wide variety of supporting evidence including physical traces, and an official memo confirming the events written by a high-ranking USAF officer.
In addirtion a real-time tape recording made during the second night of the sighting by the same USAF officer, including a report by local police officers who were called to the scene on two separate occasions.
Written statements were made by the military witnesses to the first night’s events.
So Who were the Aliens at the Rendlesham? Were they the scions of man, Advanced perhaps a million years or so? Or were they visitors from another world?
The Rendlesham Forest incident is the name given to a series of reported sightings of unexplained lights and the alleged landing of a craft or multiple craft of unknown origin in Rendlesham Forest, Suffolk, England, in late December 1980, just outside RAF Woodbridge, used at the time by the U.S. Air Force. Dozens of USAF personnel were eyewitnesses to various events over a two- or three-day period. It is the most famous UFO event to have happened in Britain,[1] ranking amongst the best-known UFO events worldwide. Along with the Berwyn Mountain UFO incident, it has been compared to the Roswell UFO incident in the United States, and is sometimes referred to as “Britain’s Roswell”.[2]
The Ministry of Defense (MoD) denied the event posed any threat to national security, and stated that it was therefore never investigated as a security matter. Later evidence indicated that there was a substantial MoD file on the subject, which led to claims of a cover-up; some interpreted this as part of a larger pattern of information suppression concerning the true nature of unidentified flying objects, by both the United States and British governments (see the UFO conspiracy theory).
One person to take this view was eyewitness and Deputy Base Commander Colonel Charles Halt (see below). Another was former NATO head and UK Chief of the Defence Staff Lord Peter Hill-Norton, who stated whatever happened at this USAF base was necessarily of national security interest. However, when the file was released in 2001 it turned out to consist mostly of internal correspondence and responses to inquiries from the public.
Sceptics note that the lack of any in-depth investigation in the publicly released documents is consistent with the MoD’s earlier statement that they never took the case seriously.[3][4] Included in the released files is an explanation given by defence minister Lord Trefgarne as to why the MoD did not investigate further.[5] The sightings have been explained as misinterpretation of a series of nocturnal lights – a fireball, the Orford Ness lighthouse and bright stars.[6] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rendlesham_Forest_incident.
SUMMARY
Although the overall case is complex, the main aspects can be summarized as follows:
1. Security guards saw bright lights apparently descending into Rendlesham Forest around 3 a.m on 1980 December 26. A bright fireball burned up over southern England at the same time.
2. The guards went out into the forest and saw a flashing light between the trees, which they followed until they realized it was coming from a lighthouse (Orford Ness).
3. After daybreak, indentations in the ground and marks on the trees were found in a clearing. Local police and a forester identified these as rabbit scrapings and cuts made by foresters.
4. Two nights later the deputy base commander, Lt Col Charles Halt, investigated the area. He took radiation readings, which were background levels. He also saw a flashing light in the direction of Orford Ness but was unable to identify it.
5. Col Halt reported seeing starlike objects that twinkled and hovered for hours, like stars. The brightest of these, which at times appeared to send down beams of light, was in the direction of Sirius, the brightest star in the sky.

Alle planeetspotters, astronomen en natuurliefhebbers opgelet. Wie dit jaar nog geen supermaan heeft kunnen bewonderen krijgt morgen de ultieme herkansing. Dinsdagnacht vindt het spektakel namelijk voor de derde keer deze zomer plaats. De volle maan lijkt dan 12 procent groter en schijnt 30 procent helderder.
Helderder, groter en imposanter: dat zijn de kernmerken van de supermaan. De maan draait niet in een cirkel, maar in een ellips rond de aarde. De afstand varieert tussen de 360.000 kilometer en 405.500 kilometer. Als de maan dicht bij de aarde staat en ook nog eens in lijn staat met de aarde en de zon (volle maan), is er sprake van een supermaan.
Als de maan het dichtst bij de aarde staat, heet dat het perigeum (nabij de aarde). Het punt waar de maan het verst van de aarde afstaat heet apogeum. Dinsdagavond zitten we in het perigeum.
Astronomen zijn over het algemeen niet zo blij met de benaming ‘supermaan’ en de opwinding die erover bestaat. De term stamt uit de astrologie en niet uit de astronomie, en daarnaast is de schijnbare grootte een optische illusie. Astronoom Neil deGrasse Tyson twitterde vorig jaar dat de benaming ‘een belediging is voor Superman, supervulkanen, supernova’s en zelfs Super Mario’.
Toch zijn drie van deze megamanen in één zomer best indrukwekkend. Ze komen gemiddeld eens in de 13,5 maanden tevoorschijn, maar we konden dit jaar op 12 juli en 10 augustus ook al getuige zijn van het fenomeen. Morgen is de laatste supermaan van dit jaar te zien.
“Moderne mens bereikte China 100.000 jaar geleden al”
“Moderne mens bereikte China 100.000 jaar geleden al”
Algemeen wordt aangenomen dat de moderne mens ongeveer 200.000 jaar geleden in Afrika is ontstaan en zich rond 60.000 jaar geleden over de rest van de wereld begon te verspreiden. Oudere botten buiten Afrika leiden steeds tot een dood spoor. Hoewel de Homo erectus tot diep in Indonesië reikte en vermoedelijk verantwoordelijk was voor het ontstaan van de neanderthaler en Denisova-mens, stierven al deze lijnen uiteindelijk uit.
De vondst van nieuwe fossiele resten in China en Zuidoost-Azië druist in tegen dit traditionele verhaal over de oorsprong van de mens. Afgelopen maand schreven Christopher Bae van de Universiteit van Hawaï in Manoa en Wei Wang van het Guangxi Museum of Nationalities in het Chinese Nanning over de ontdekking van twee tanden in de Luna-grot in de Chinese regio Guangxi Zhuang. Op basis van de afmetingen van de tanden concluderen Bae en Wang dat tenminste één van de tanden toebehoort aan een vroege Homo sapiens.
De tanden zijn zeer oud. Calcietkristallen, die zich vormden terwijl de tanden in contact kwamen met water, zijn gedateerd op 70.000 tot 125.000 jaar oud. Bae en Wang zeggen bewijs te hebben voor een vroege golf van moderne mensen in het oosten van Azië.
Hoewel nog niet definitief vaststaat dat de tanden toebehoren aan moderne mensen, zijn in Israël botten gevonden die mogelijk 150.000 jaar oud zijn. Het gaat onder meer om een bovenkaak van een moderne mens uit de Misliya-grot.
Daarnaast zijn in Zhirendong, een grot in de Chinese provincie Guizhou, kiezen en een kaakbot gevonden die meer dan 100.000 jaar oud zijn. De resten lijken toe te behoren aan een moderne mens.
“Er is krachtig bewijs dat moderne mensen rond 50.000 of 60.000 jaar geleden al aanwezig waren in Tam Pa Ling in Laos,” zei Erik Trinkaus van de Washington University in Missouri. “Moderne mensen waren ergens in deze periode al aanwezig in Zuidoost-Azië en het zuiden van China.”
Nu blijkt dat de oorspronkelijke theorie niet klopt, willen wetenschappers gaan onderzoeken of de moderne mens misschien eerder is vertrokken uit Afrika of dat verschillende soorten Homo sapiens zich los van elkaar hebben ontwikkeld.
Salar de Uyuni, de op één na grootste zoutvlakte ter wereld, en de naburige berg Pampa Auallagas herbergen mogelijk de verloren stad Atlantis. Dat stelt voormalig fotoanalist van het Britse leger en auteur Jim Allen. Hij bestudeerde satellietbeelden van de zoutvlakte (foto) en zag een aantal opmerkelijke overeenkomsten tussen de regio en Plato’s beschrijvingen van Atlantis.
Plato verwijst niet alleen naar het continent Atlantis, maar ook naar een eilandstad met de naam Atlantis. Enkel de stad zou in één dag en één nacht zijn gezonken. Allen theoretiseert dat Zuid-Amerika het continent Atlantis is en dat de gezonken eilandstad op Pampa Auallagas was gevestigd.
Volgens Plato was het continent Atlantis net zo groot als Noord-Afrika en Azië tezamen. Dat komt aardig overeen met de omvang van Zuid-Amerika, legt Allen uit. Daarnaast werd het continent gescheiden door een vlakte, aldus Plato. Deze vlakte zou kunnen verwijzen naar de Salar de Uyuni. Ook in dit geval komen de afmetingen overeen.
De stad Atlantis was volgens Plato een streng geometrisch uitgebouwd systeem van concentrische cirkels met om beurten een ommuuurd eiland en een kanaal. Het hoofdeiland was helemaal ingesloten door een cirkelvormig kanaal.
Op de top van Pampa Auallagas zijn deels geërodeerde cirkels gevonden. Als het water in het nabijgelegen Poopomeer hoger had gestaan, zouden de ringen op Pampa Auallagas zijn gevuld met water en middels een kanaal met het meer zijn verbonden. Het aantal ringen en de afmetingen ervan komen volgens Allen overeen met de beschrijving die Plato gaf van Atlantis.
De tempelmuren en concentrische cirkels van Atlantis zouden zijn afgewerkt met goud, zilver, koper, tin en orichalcum, een legendarische metaallegering die in gebruik zou zijn geweest in de verloren stad. Een andere legering van dezelfde naam was in gebruik bij de Romeinen.
Atlantis, aldus Plato, was ommuurd met natuursteen, en de muren waren bekleed met geelkoper, tin en orichalcum. In het midden bevond zich een tempel bedekt met goud en zilver, ivoor en orichalcum. Dat laatste metaal zou in zuiveren staat gedolven zijn.
Al deze metalen kunnen worden gevonden in het gebied rond Pampa Auallagas, merkt Allen op. Hij voegde toe dat orichalcum van nature voorkomt in de Andes, waar het bekendstaat als tumbaga. Plato beschreef koud- en warmwaterbronnen, die ook rond Pampa Auallagas worden gevonden.
Atlantis zou volgens een legende zijn vernietigd door watergod Poseidon. Soortgelijke Boliviaanse legenden spreken van een overstroming rond Pampas Auallages die werd veroorzaakt door watergod Tunupa.
Voor de komst van de Spaanse conquistadores werd een deel van de regio Antisuyo genoemd, wat ‘koninkrijk van koper’ betekent. Antis is Quechua voor koper. Allen vermoedt dat dit woord verband houdt met ‘antis’ in Atlantis.

UFO sighting over San Diego, California on 6th September 2014
New interesting video footage of a bright blue – coloured UFO sighting recorded in the night sky above San Diego, California on 6th September 2014.
Witness said: Round quiet quick smooth fast turning object with red blue and white lights then disappears into sky heading north.Outback in Mira Mesa, taking the dog out, then there’s this blue object in sky and it turned quicker and sharper than any other plane or helicopter I’ve seen. It came towards my house, it was about 2-4 houses away, north of me, and then I saw all blue, red, and white lights. There was a helicopter in the sky south of me and they are loud. We thought it was a flying droid thing like Amazon has been talking about but when we ran to front of house to see it better, it disappeared within seconds and never came back.
The Norwood case involves 10 visual sightings by multiple civilian, clergy, police, scientist and military witnesses over a 7-month duration, facilitated by the use of a powerful searchlight ran by Army Sgt. Donald R. Berger. The first sighting took place during “The Jitney Carnival” of 1949 and witnessed by hundreds The following morning, three local newspapers- The Cincinnati Post, The Cincinnati Enquirer and The Cincinnati Times Star- all had articles regarding ‘strange lights’ and ‘comets seen over the city’ from the previous evening. There was an explanation for the occurrence, according to one local newspaper. The Albee Theater in nearby Cincinnati, accompanied by the Ss. Peter & Paul Church in Norwood, were operating searchlights. It was said that the hundreds of persons calling newspapers and weather bureau officials were simply observing these searchlight beams ‘bouncing off of clouds.’ Despite this, the sightings began in earnest after 11:00 p.m. (Berger logs indicate that he observed the UFO from 8:15 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.) and continued to flummox Cincinnati residents until 6:30 a.m. the following morning. It seems unlikely searchlights would be operating all night long until daylight, and further still, one weather bureau official recounted his early-morning observation of two objects that looked like “two weather ceiling balloons” that weren’t moving despite a wind speed of 25 to 32-miles per hour. Even the Berger logs indicate the possible presence of a second searchlight from that evening, whether Berger knew there was another searchlight at work or not. “When I moved the searchlight away, the object continued to glow,” Berger wrote in his 1949 logs that were later kept in the possession of Rev. Gregory Miller until 1954, when he imparted them to UFO investigator Leonard Stringfield. Meanwhile, during the festival in Norwood, Robert Linn, the managing editor of the Cincinnati Post, along with church pastor Rev. Gregory Miller, were certain that Berger’s searchlight had found and been bouncing off of “some definite object.” They entered into agreement and reported the situation to intelligence officials at Wright Field in nearby Dayton, Ohio. The August 19th episode is a mass-witness case, reported in all three local newspapers of Cincinnati, Ohio, a city not far south of Dayton, home of the airbase. A possible explanation is publicly toyed with: the deception caused by two searchlight beams strolling the dark skies. It seems as if Grudge folks would have likely been aware of the events at Norwood on August 19, 1949 – either from all the reportage or from the direct report to the airbase itself, by Robert Linn and Rev. Miller. Why does the Norwood Case not factor in to their investigation when, in fact, far ‘lesser’ cases may have been prominently addressed? If Project Grudge had sought to dismiss UFO sightings as psychological phenomena, they had a good case with the Norwood searchlight events at this stage of the situation.
There are alien (or ET-human) devices, vehicles and structures on every physical planet in our Solar System! Some moons and major asteroids have been everything from mining excavations to battlefields over time. In some cases, the machines, crafts and alien buildings are extremely ancient. Off-world, artificial structures are right there in front of our eyes.
Examine the following images and make up your own mind. Are we viewing what wewant to see; projecting ‘wishful thinking’ like seeing images in clouds? In a few examples, you will see that real structures are OBVIOUS. We have been conditioned to not see or believe such concepts…when the
We will start with the first planet from the sun. Mercury has numerous odditiesphotographed by ‘Messenger.’ Reports claim this is a building inside a squared crater. Yet, the weird thing resembles a craft with landing legs. Shadows suggest an unknown that is above the surface. One day, it might takeoff and be gone.
What is inside another crater on Mercury? Examine the symmetry of the shadows; especially the photos on the left. A dark square or rectangular shape is near the center of the raised structure.
Here is another oddity inside one more Mercury crater. When we see closer and clearer, a very regular structure emerges with sharp right angles.
Below is one more oddity within a Mercurial crater that may not be a natural crater. Notice how the ‘base’ or ‘space-port platform’ appears elevated. The image from Mercury on the right was called ‘Walking.’
Take a good look at what appears as a BLACK MONOLITH outside of another crater on our first planet. We will discover that other bodies in the Solar System also contain ARTIFICIAL monoliths, towers, standing-stones or dishes. Are they power beacons orpossibly communication receivers?
One really cannot include second planet, Venus, along with the rest of the Solar System. SOMETHING’S GOING ON WITH VENUS that ‘They’ are not informing us. Governments are lying to us about conditions on Venus! Here is what they are reporting NOW:
…Magellan spacecraft, which arrived at Venus in 1990, made the first global map of the surface of Venus as well as global maps of the planet’s gravity field. The mission produced surprising findings about Venus, including a relatively young planetary surface possibly formed by lava flows from planet-wide volcanic eruptions…’
When Magellan’s findings were first received, the data shocked everyone because therewas NO VOLCANISM on Venus! Documentaries were made and televised. Instead, they found the ‘most intense (amount) craters in the Solar System!!’ That meant no planetary resurfacing; that meant a surface from the dawn of Time. Venus had anastronomical numberof craters! Therefore, it was the OLDEST planetary surface (not ‘youngest’). Nothing appeared to have moved from the beginning of Time!
Another mystery is ‘what uses up Venusian energy since it does not escape into space?’ Venus’ thick clouds, which obscure our view of it, act like a massive ‘pressure-cooker.’ The answer is…an advanced civilization INSIDE the planet or ON the planet, but under a masking cover.
Unconventional books such as ‘Return of the Dove’ by Margaret Storm and ‘The Wall of Light’ by Arthur Mathews report that Nikola Tesla came from Venus! The late Frank E. Stranges, who wrote ‘Stranger at the Pentagon,’ was in contact with Valiant Thor and his crew of two other Venusians. They met with the President and world leaders at the Pentagon in 1957.
The above photo shows a large structure on Venus. But, can we trust anything our devices indicate? Could everything we THINK we see be camouflage away from an amazing world that is truly there? Does another dimension exist at Venus which our normal senses cannot perceive?
On Mars at Cydonia, there is the famous Face (Sphinx?) and the Great Martian Pyramid that is aligned with the planet’s directions. Richard Hoagland has demonstrated Cydonia’s numerous parallels to ancient Egypt, Giza…only the ‘Monuments of Mars’ are much older and much LARGER.
There are eyeballs inside the eyes of the Face. There are teeth where teeth should be on the Martian HUMAN Face. (Maybe we shouldn’t believe NASA). Rather than showing the usual Martian oddities, let us view some lesser known ones…
The Martian satellite, Phobos, is one more extreme anomaly in the Solar System. What was once thought of as only a captured asteroid…the ‘new thinking’ is Phobos could be entirely artificial and only made to appear as a planetoid.
Was the spaceship communing or sending/receiving a transmission to a particular (2001-like) monolith towering high over the terrain of Phobos?
Buzz Aldrin, second man to walk on the Moon, speaks out about the strange monolith on the irregular satellite of Mars…
Continuing ‘throughout’ a small part of only our Solar System, let us explore a bit of the second largest asteroid: Vesta! If President Obama has his way, we will be sending a manned probe to the asteroid. The planetoid measures 326 miles in diameter. (Actually, Vesta is the second largest ‘chunk’ or remains after Planet #5 was pulverized long ago forming the Asteroid Belt in the gap).
[‘President Barack Obama's re-election Tuesday night (Nov. 6) means NASA will likely continue along its current path, working to get astronauts to an asteroid by 2025 among other goals…’ under the title: ‘Obama Win Keeps NASA on Course Toward an Asteroid.’’]
Why go to Vesta, of all the asteroids? Because we already know something very odd is there…like the Moon and Mars. Inspect details of these different sites on Vesta:
Vesta could be a treasure trove with bizarre ‘structuring’ seen on some enhanced photos. Hoagland has pointed out many right-angled patterns that obviously were artificially produced as well as squared-areas that were not the result of impacts. What is the enormous protuberance on the side of this orbiting walnut? Are these really crash sites as they appear? Is Vesta a graveyard of alien crafts? The general public will never know from officials.
We move further out along the planets, ignoring myriads of worlds that orbit Jupiter. One of the strongest cases for a completely artificial planetoid is ‘Incredible Iapetus,’ 17th moon of Saturn
Little Iapetus appears to be slightly ‘breaking apart at the seams!’ Below are photos taken by the Cassini spacecraft during a flyby in 2004. The horizon of the moon is ANGLED! The orb is nearly FACETED and resembles an ancient, geodesic sphere.
A prominent tower on two-toned Iapetus has been photographed. But, the most stunning feature is the ‘Great Wall.’ Richard Hoagland with his Enterprise Mission has called it ‘a vast, planet-spanning, artificial construct’ and asked, ‘how can there be a 60,000 foot high, 60,000 foot wide, 4 million foot long ‘wall’ across an entire hemisphere?’
JPL had stated the samein a news release from 1/7/05: ‘…a long, narrow ridge that is almost exactly on the equator of Iapetus, bisects its entire dark hemisphere and reached 12 miles high. It extends over 800 miles (nearly its diameter)…along its mid section. No other (known) moon has such a striking geological feature…surprising for such a small body as Iapetus…’
Examine the fantastic style of what only can be called ARCHITECTURE on the satellite. Curved, swooping, even beautiful towers rise to the heights of miles over the surface! How could it be possible if these truly were ruins and abandoned cities?
Iapetus has 1/40 the gravity of Earth because it rotates once in 79 days. You could construct large buildings and move great weights with ease; almost with the efficiency of manufacturing in space. Ancient Iapetus would be ideal for building and all the evidence is there that this ‘station’ was utilized for a long time. Is the 17th moon of Saturn occupied now?
Study all areas; the oceans of Europa; on Titan; Pluto; Sedna…beyond… Where youdon’t think there is Life…there is Life! We have only scratched the surface…of hollow planets. Here are just a very few of our lunar mysteries:
ALIEN ABDUCTION IN THE YUKON TERRITORY SEPTEMBER 3, 1987 …….. GRAVEL CREEK NORTHERN CANADA
At daybreak (September 3, 1987) I put my gear and my gun on my bike and headed towards Mac pass. A couple of miles down the road, I was putting along at about 10 mph looking into the trees and watching the hillsides. I decided to stop for a restroom break. I stopped where I could see some mountainsides and some valleys. I parked on the right side of the road. The sun was shining; the air was perfectly still and a bit cool. I was standing just in front of my bike watching the mountains to the south, when I noticed to the left out of the corner of my eye, what I first thought was an airplane. It was 400 to 500 yards away and about the size of a DC-3 plane or a full-size school bus. It was travelling north to south, at about 40 yards above ground and moving maybe 30 km/h. Right away I thought “boy is he low”. I blinked my eyes because I couldn’t make out any tail fin or wings. It had what looked like portholes all along the side of it. It was cigar shaped with a grey strip down the middle and a dark green on top and bottom. I thought to myself, “something’s wrong with this picture”, then I realized there was no sound! If it was an airplane, the roar would have filled the valley. As I watched, it seemed to partially dematerialize and then return to solid form, it did this as it was moving, a couple of times. Then it dawned on me, oh, oh, I don’t think I should be seeing this; it’s a UFO and probably doesn’t want to be seen!
I crouched down on the road, hiding behind the roadside grass. I then watched it go behind a cone-shaped hill and not come out. I stood up looking for it and feeling very excited and happy about what I saw and thinking they didn’t even know they were being watched. I was standing beside my bike when I heard a loud metallic clunk behind me around the corner. Right away I thought, somebody must be here and I’ve got to tell them what I saw. The noise I heard sounded like a heavy trunk lid on a car slamming shut. I quickly walked along the edge of the road to the corner to see who was there.I came face to face (about 20 yards) with 2 grey creatures in blue jump suits, about 5 ft. tall with big insect looking heads, pointy faces, big eyes, thin arms, body and legs. I immediately thought “they’re not little green men*, they’re grasshopper people”. At that same instant, the one on the left raised his left hand to his waist, which held some type of flashlight device and I saw a bright flash of light come from it. I instantly felt paralyzed and was convinced time had stopped, everything was black, no sound. I tried to yell “No!” but all that came out was a distorted grunt. Next thing I knew I was standing on the side of the road scared, shaking and confused. Within seconds I remembered all of this that had just taken place and I thought, “I’m getting out of here before they get me again.” I turned around to get my bike and for some reason it was not there, then I noticed it was on the other side of the road. I said to myself, “what the hell is this? I didn’t put it there”. Still panicking I rushed over and got on it and realized the keys were gone. I always left the keys in it, that way I could not lose them while sneaking around in the bush. I immediately started looking down the road and suddenly saw them in my hand. I started my bike and raced back to the trailer. I was feeling scared and amazed at the same time and then noticed that all the shadows of the trees were pointing in a different direction than that of the morning sun. About 15 minutes later I was at the trailer. Half an hour later it was dark. I thought “no way, I only left here an hour ago, what’s going on?” I was really confused then, I said to myself, “I’m not telling anybody about this, I’ll just forget the whole thing”. I put on a pot of coffee and could then hear a soft humming sound above the trailer. I could also feel a soft vibration in everything (trailer, air, etc.). After about 10 minutes it had all stopped. I had a very strong feeling that they were outside. I did not look out the windows.
Later that night I still couldn’t sleep and while having my coffee I began to have flashbacks of the past events. I remember being in a dream-like state watching scenery flash by underneath as if I was flying. I watched mountains and rivers and forests go by at a very high rate of speed. I then became aware of other sounds and seemed to wake up. I opened my eyes and could see nothing but black, very deep and inky black. As I was looking at this, the blackness pulled back, revealing a face, I had been looking into the eyes of a grey type creature. I could hear in my mind a voice saying “there is nothing to worry about”. I could hear him talking in my mind. There were 3 or 4 of these types walking around, but only one talked to me. The two I saw earlier on the road, I never saw again. (Note: the aliens that he saw at this point were of the typical “grey type” while the ones at the edge of the road were more insectoid.) I then sat up and had an idea of what might be going on and I asked, “Are you going to do experiments on me?” and the one said, “They’ve already been done.” I felt really good then because, except for a strange sensation in my hands everything felt normal. I kept rubbing my hands together but did not look at them, as there was a totally strange environment to look at instead. I experienced no discomfort. The being nearest me asked if I would like to see my home planet and I said sure. I then walked over to the window, where there was a machine that looked like a big copy machine. He asked me not to touch it, I replied “Don’t worry, I’m not touching anything in here”. He then said, that bright white star is your home. I didn’t know anything about astronomy at the time, but I always thought earth was blue, so right away I thought he’s lying. He also explained to me about space and stars etc. but I can’t remember any of it now. I was also asked if I would like to go on a trip. I replied “Not yet”, I felt very honored to be asked and I did want to go, but felt that the time was not right. Then I was told I would have to forget all of this. I was disappointed at hearing this. The first part of the experience was very scary, but once I was with them, I found them to be friendly, helpful and their looks didn’t bother me. They actually seemed like old friends. They gave me a clear glass, ¾ full with a yellow liquid and said to drink it up, it would make me forget everything. I told them, I did not want to forget an experience like this. It should be remembered! I was told it was for my own good that I forget. So I took 3 little sips and put the glass down. Next thing I know, I’m on the road by my bike, scared to death and wanting to get out of there. NOTE: The above image is the witness rendering.

This may be about the most astonishing thing you ever heard, A City 6,000 Feet Under The Sea, reports Jonathan Gray in his newsletter -
DEEP SEA DISCOVERIES
The Swedish research ship “Albatross” had just returned from a peaceful reconnaissance in the South Atlantic.
Had you peeped through a lattice window in a little house outside Stockholm, you might have seen two men, one of them bearded, huddled across a table, engaged in lively talk.
One of them, in fact, looked almost wild-eyed. But, knowing him as a well-balanced, sober man, you would have to admit that whatever it was that now had him so excited must be something extraordinary.
“I swear to you, it’s incredible! Do you know, we were sounding the seabed 700 miles east of Brazil. And we brought up core samples of fresh-water plants! Can you believe that! And do you know how deep they were? Three thousand metres!”
The speaker was Professor Hans Pettersson, who had led the expedition.
And he added: “These samples actually contained micro-organisms, twigs, plants and even tree bark.”
ANOTHER DISCOVERY
Within a similar time frame, discussion was hot in London. Coral had been recovered from depths of over 3,000 feet (1,000 metres) in mid-Atlantic Ocean sites. Now we all know that coral grows only close to sea level.
So in London, England, someone else was making a chilling diagnosis: “Either the seabed dropped thousands of feet or the sea rose mightily.”
AND STILL ANOTHER
Meanwhile, at Columbia University in the U.S.A., Professor Maurice Ewing, a prominent marine geologist, was reporting on an expedition that had descended to submerged plateaus at a depth of 5,000 feet.
“It’s quite amazing,” he said. “At 5,000 feet down, they discovered prehistoric beach sand. It was brought up in one case from a depth of nearly three and one half miles, far from any place where beaches exist today.
“One deposit was 1,200 miles from the nearest land.”
As we all know, sandy beaches form from waves breaking on the edge of the coastal rim of the seas. Beach sand does not form deep down on the ocean bottom.
Then Ewing dropped his bombshell: “Either the land must have sunk 2 or 3 miles or the sea must have been 2 or 3 miles lower than now. Either conclusion is startling.”
WHAT THIS MEANS,
These facts mean one of two things: either there was a mighty ocean bed subsidence (unexplainable by orthodox science), or a huge (likewise unexplained) addition of water to the ocean.
Let’s briefly consider these.
1. Sudden subsidence
Much of the landscape that is now drowned by the ocean still has sharp, fine profiles. But these sharp, fine profiles would have been eroded, and the lava covering the ocean floor would have decayed if all this rocky terrain had been
immersed in sea water for more than 15,000 years.
You see, chemical and mechanical forces are very destructive. Sharp edges and points can be ground down and blunted by abrasion, erosion, and the action of waves.
But the entire seabed below the present surf zone has retained its sharpness of profile. Had the subsidence taken place gradually, chemical and other forces would have ground down this sharp profile within a few hundred years.
If the land had sunk slowly, even the surf would have worn away these profiles. No, it was a rapid subsidence, if a subsidence it was.
This sudden collapse of an area covering many millions of square miles does not support a gradual sinking, but rather a cataclysmic event.
Such subsidence is perfectly in keeping with the centuries-long adjustments that occurred after the Great Flood trauma.
2. Pre-Flood sea level lower
However, some of the data strongly suggest that the sea level actually was several thousand feet lower than at present – that there was LESS WATER in the ocean at one time. These discoveries suggest that we are uncovering evidence of a former sea level!
But this would call for a relatively sudden increase of 30 percent in the volume of the ocean. The compelling question is, WHERE DID THIS WATER COME FROM? Few geologists can bring themselves to answer this.
Obviously, melting ice sheets could never have contained enough water to raise the ocean level thousands of feet. So we can forget melting ice sheets being the cause.
CITY ON THE SEABED?
Now for another surprise. This time the excitement was in the Pacific. The year was 1965. A research vessel named “Anton Brunn” was investigating the Nazca Trench, off Peru.
The sonar operator called for the captain.
“I don’t know what to make of this,” he murmured. “Around here, the ocean floor is all mud bottom. But just take in these sonar recordings… unusual shapes on the ocean floor! I’m puzzled.”
“Better lower a camera,” came the order.
At a depth of 6,000 feet a photograph revealed huge upright pillars and walls, some of which seemed to have writing on them. In other nearby locations, apparently artificially shaped stones lay on their sides, as though they had toppled over.
The crew rubbed their eyes and kept staring. Could this really be? …the remains of a city under a mass of water more than a mile deep!
Was it overwhelmed suddenly by some gigantic disaster? And now it was buried under 6,000 feet of ocean?

We are not alone: Basement Jaxx maakt nummer over UFO-ervaring
We are not alone: Basement Jaxx maakt nummer over UFO-ervaring
Felix Buxton, de man achter DJ-duo Basement Jaxx, heeft een nummer geschreven over buitenaardse wezens. Hij beweert dat hij onlangs een UFO heeft gezien. Het object schoot razendsnel voorbij aan het hoofdkwartier van de band in Londen.
De muzikant zag naar eigen zeggen een vliegende schotel in de buurt van zijn studio in Londen. Het nummer heeft de naam ‘We Are Not Alone’ gekregen, zo vertelt Buxton aan het Britse magazine The New Review.
“Ik zag iets in de lucht hangen,” zei hij. “Eerst dacht ik dat het de reflectie van een auto was. Maar eigenlijk zag het er echt uit als een vliegende schotel.”
Hoewel Buxton wel inziet dat het niet om een alledaagse getuigenis gaat, sprak hij er toch over tijdens een lezing aan de Oxford-universiteit. “De studenten deden er normaal over,” legde hij uit. “Mensen van mijn generatie reageren vaak een stuk bozer als je vertelt dat je iets hebt gezien wat je niet begrijpt. Dat bewijst maar weer hoe gesloten de geest van de mens over het algemeen is.”

Hele wereld spuwt vuur: Spectaculaire beelden vulkaanuitbarsting Papoea-Nieuw-Guinea
Vulkanen over de hele wereld spuwen vuur, as en stoom. In Papoea-Nieuw-Guinea, IJsland, Ecuador, Hawaï en Indonesië rommelt het onder de aarde. IJsland heeft te maken met de Bardarbunga die onder de grootste gletsjer van Europa, de Vatnajökull, is uitgebarsten.
In het centrum van Ecuador verstoorde de Tungurahua de rust in de stad Baños met explosies en aardbevingen. Ook sierde lava uit Slamet in het centrum van Java in Indonesië de nachtelijke hemel. Klimtochten op de berg werden sinds begin augustus door de overheid al verboden.
Op het Groot Eiland van Hawaï is de noodtoestand afgekondigd vanwege lavastromen afkomstig van de vulkaan Kilauea. De lavastromen waren tot minstens anderhalve kilometer van woongebied genaderd.
In het oosten van Papoea-Nieuw-Guinea ontwaakte de Tavurvur op 29 augustus uit een diepe slaap. De laatste uitbarsting dateerde namelijk uit 1994. Toen barstte de Tavurvur gelijktijdig uit met de naburige Mount Vulcan. Stenen, as en stoom werden 18.288 meter de lucht ingestuwd. De uitbarsting van de Tavurvur viel samen met die van de Bardarbunga in IJsland. De Australische luchtvaartmaatschappij Qantas heeft verschillende vluchten moeten omleiden.
Phil McNamara maakte onderstaande spectaculaire beelden van de uitbarsting in Papoea-Nieuw-Guinea:
This case and report was exhaustively investigated by several researchers including Robert Pratt, who did exceptionally thorough interviews with all individuals important to the case, and Mr. Jack Bostrak, a Professor of Biology at the University of Wisconsin at River Falls. I have included some of the APRO Bulletin from April 1976. I have also added a link at the end of the post to a site with more information. The important elements of this case are:
(1) The primary witness reported a UFO in April 1975, thus making him a “repeater”. (Some researchers, and Dr. J. Allen Hynek in particular, have reservations concerning the believability of witnesses where they claim more than one sighting. It is our contention that during heightened UFO activity in a particular area, an individual could easily have more than one sighting.) (2) The object, or the glow from it, was seen by at least two other witnesses. (3) There apparently were electro-mechanical effects on an automobile and possibly on television reception, and (4) possible animal reaction.
At about 11 p.m. on April 22, 1976, George Wheeler, a relief policeman at the town of Elmwood, population 737, located in west central Wisconsin about 60 miles east of the Mississippi River, spotted an orange glow at the top of Tuttle Hill. Mr. Wheeler is a veteran of 30 years police work in New York state and Wisconsin, and the former one-man police force in Elmwood where he now performs as reserve officer, filling in for the present chief when necessary. He was also a combat pilot in World War II.
Thinking that the glow was a large fire, he drove to the top of Tuttle Hill, but when he arrived there he found a strange glowing object which he estimated was about 500 feet distant and hovering about 100 feet off the ground. He said it was between a limestone quarry and a farmhouse in the area. Wheeler later said that there were six bluish-white lights, windows or portholes on the side and he could see shadows as if someone was moving inside of it. In the middle of the side facing him there appeared to be some kind of a panel that was open and Wheeler said that inside he could see something which was revolving slowly and had fin-like parts on it similar to a turbine.
What Wheeler interpreted to be legs on the craft were partially extended from the main body of the object and there was a long, black, hose-like appendage on the bottom. The main part of the craft was silver in color.
All the while he was observing, Mr. Wheeler remembered some advice given him by Bostrak the preceding April when he had his first experience: if he should have a similar experience in the future, he should attempt to observe as many details as possible.
When Wheeler first saw the object as he arrived at the top of the hill he radioed the sheriff’s department headquarters in Ellsworth and described what he was observing. Suddenly the object started to rise straight up at extremely high speed and at this time there was a bluish flash, whereupon the squad car, the lights, and the radio went dead. Wheeler claims that he doesn’t remember any more until somebody asked him if he needed any help. He thinks he recalls saying something of this nature when he radioed the sheriffs office: “My God, it’s another one of these UFOs or spacecraft.” He estimates that he observed the object for perhaps 45 seconds, and recalls that it made a “whooshing” sound when it left. Although the main body of the craft was silvery in color, the top of it glowed an orangish-white, and so brilliant that it was difficult for him to look at that part because it was “like looking into the sun.” He could not discern whether the hose-like appendage was touching the ground because it extended down to where it was obscured by trees.
The limestone quarry where the object was hovering is an active quarry, that is, it is still being worked. In the neighborhood, the nearest farm is that of the O’Bryan family and when Bostrak interviewed Mr. O’Bryan he said that he hadn’t seen anything because he was watching television, and casually noted that he recalled the time because he was watching the Perry Mason show which comes on at 11 p.m. and that several minutes after 11, his television set quit for a short time. When Bostrak visited another farm with Wheeler they learned nothing from the adults, but the 9-year-old boy said something about his sister coming home from “some doings” in town and when she came into the yard the dogs did not act normally. Always before, the dogs would run up to her and jump up for attention and petting but on that night they would not respond to her calls and merely barked for some time.
The first person to see George Wheeler after the accident was David Moots, 36, a dairy farmer at Elmwood. Moots had taken the babysitter home a few minutes before that and he had seen Wheeler’s squad car parked elsewhere with lights on, etc., so when he saw the car parked on the top of the hill with the lights out and blocking that lane of the road, he decided to stop. Moots said that Wheeler was trying to get out of the car and there seemed to be something wrong with him. Knowing that Wheeler had once had a heart attack, he thought he might be having another so he stopped and asked what was wrong. Moots said that Wheeler said that he’d been hit. He responded with a question: “Hit by a car?7′ Wheeler then said, “No, one of those UFOs.”

When interviewed, Moots said that he’d heard that a lot of people had seen UFOs in the area before so that was no particular surprise but the being “hit” by a UFO took him aback a bit. He said that Wheeler appeared to be dazed, and because although he did not know him well, he had had sufficient contact with him to know that he was not acting normally.
A second witness to the incident is Mrs. Miles Wergland, a housewife who lives just outside of Elmwood to the North. She claimed that at about 11 o’clock she heard the cuckoo clock strike and got up to go to the kitchen to take some medicine when she happened to glance out the kitchen window and spotted a “bright orange moon-shaped” object on the hill (Tuttle). She said she observed it for a “few minutes”, then went back to bed and did not even bother to wake her husband because she said she had seen strange things in the area before and he had merely told her to go back to bed, she was seeing the moon, without ever checking for himself.
The third witness to the actual object is Paul Fredrickson, who is administrator of the Heritage of Elmwood Nursing Home in Elmwood. Mr. Fredrickson was at his home when the police chief’s wife called him and asked him to go to his front porch and look out the window and see what he could see. Fredrickson did as he was asked, and saw what he later described as “an orange glow, like a half-moon, like a moon cut in half” on Tuttle Hill. He said he knew it was not a house on fire as there were no flames leaping up. He went back to the telephone and by that time his wife had gotten out of bed and the two of them went back to the window and the thing was gone. Fredrickson feels that the length of time that he spent on the telephone might have been from 3 to 5 minutes.
In the course of the investigation, Mr. Pratt found that Mr. Fredrickson had had another experience along with his son in October, 1975, at which time they were in the same general vicinity, and driving home from the Nursing Home where Mr. Fredrickson had worked overtime. His son suddenly pointed out “something” coming up over the horizon. At the time, they were on Tuttle Hill and looking eastward “right over the top of our house”. Fredrickson said his first impression was that it was the full moon rising but then realized it couldn’t be because the object was rising very rapidly. He stopped the car and they got out, the boy getting a better look because Mr. Fredrickson was busy with braking, turning off on to the side of the road, etc. Mr. Fredrickson described it at first as a big orange light coming toward them, but when it was overhead it looked like the bottom of a huge, gray plate which he estimated was about 100 feet across. He thinks perhaps it may have been between 500 and 1,000 feet in altitude and when it was directly overhead they could hear a roaring sound much like the roar of a waterfall. The Fredrickson boy said that the object gave off a blue and green beam from the side of it at one point, but this was while his father was engaged in stopping the car. The object faded into the distance rather quickly, they said; having originally come from the east, it disappeared into the west. Fredrickson did not make careful note of the date at the time, but feels it was around the 20th of October and that the experience took place between 10 and 10:30 p.m.
The next individual to become involved in the Wheeler incident was Police Chief Gene Helmer of Elmwood. He had been at home and monitoring the “police scanner” when he heard Wheeler say that he was watching a UFO. Helmer said Wheeler had started to describe the object but the radio went dead. The Sheriffs Department was trying to contact Wheeler by radio also, and Helmer tried to get Wheeler back, but to no avail. Helmer decided he had better go and see what was wrong when Wheeler came back on the radio momentarily and said, “Get somebody up here — I’ve been hit.”
Helmer, who lives about a quarter of a mile from Tuttle Hill, left immediately and when he arrived at the scene, Moots was trying to soothe Mr. Wheeler. Helmer said that he had never seen a man as frightened as Wheeler was. He said further that he had worked with Wheeler under various trying conditions but had never seen him so upset. Another interesting aspect of Chief Helmer’s interview was his description of the condition of the patrol car. Although they had had the car tuned up not long before the incident, it was necessary to replace all points and plugs in the car’s engine. The starter is beginning to act up also, whereas they had had no problem with it prior to the incident.
Wheeler’s wife arrived on the scene at about the time the Police Chief got there, as she had been listening to the police frequency on the Wheeler scanner. Wheeler was taken home and the family doctor, Frank Springer, was called. Mrs. Wheeler took her husband to Springer’s home where he examined Wheeler and gave him a shot to calm him and help him sleep. After they got home, Chief Helmer arrived and questioned Wheeler for about an hour and a half. At about 1 a.m. Mrs. Wheeler called Dr. Springer and said that her husband was still quite upset and Dr. Springer instructed her to take her husband to the hospital.
Wheeler was in the hospital for three days where tests were taken but nothing could be found wrong with him. He stayed for three days, was released, but went back to the hospital for a second stay of 11 days because of headaches he was suffering, as well as nightmares.
Dr. Springer, who has been Wheeler’s physician for 25 years, said that it was unusual for Wheeler to suffer headaches and the headaches he had which prompted him (the Dr.) to re-hospitalize him were continual and severe. Otherwise, however, Wheeler was rational and appeared normal.
One puzzling aspect of this case is the fact that although Wheeler recounted the entire experience to Helmer, who recorded it in writing, he could not recall any of the details of the experience later. – APRO Bulletin – April 1976
NOTE:As his health rapidly deteriorated for causes his doctors could not determine, Wheeler repeatedly told them, to their disbelief; that he was dying from the mysterious effects of internal injuries caused by alien beings. Within six months after his April encounter, Officer George Wheeler died of unknown causes.

Door to nowhere. 1000 year old facade…rumored to be a portal to the universe. Is this a stargate?
British diplomat Benjamin Bathurst vanished into thin air in 1809. Bathurst was returning to Hamburg with a companion after a mission to the Austrian court. Along the way, they had stopped for dinner at an inn in the town of Perelberg. Upon finishing the meal, they returned to their waiting horse-drawn coach. Bathurst’s companion watched as the diplomat stepped over to the front of the coach to examine to horses – and simply vanished without a trace.
This stuffed specimen of the Troglodytes Gorilla belongs to the Zoological Cabinet of Amherst College. He was killed near the Gaboon River, in Africa, in the Spring of 1862. Shown as one that killed his hunter, whose gun missed fired when endeavoring to shoot the Gorilla. In his rage he killed the hunter with one blow upon his bowels, bent his gun with his hands, and bit the gun barrel so hard as to leave marks of his teeth upon it.
Miners in South Africa have been digging up mysterious metal spheres. Origin unknown, these spheres measure approximately an inch or so in diameter, and some are etched with three parallel grooves running around the equator. The kicker is that the rock in which they where found is Precambrian – and dated to 2.8 billion years old! Who made them and for what purpose is unknown.
This image was captured by a hunter’s motion sensor and so far has remained unexplained.
Las Vegas, NV – 7/10/1982 – some spelling corrections made: I was studying engineering at UC Irving 1982, family members came to visit me and my sister, who also was living in Irving with her husband Etham that also was studying Engineering at UC Irving, our visitors wanted to go to Las Vegas for the weekend. After we arrived in Las Vegas at the Grand Palace Hotel and checked in. It was around 5 pm. I wanted to look around at the shops in the hotel, I remember going down a floor or two from the lobby where many shops are located. Among them was a barber shop. I enter to cut my hair. The lady that attended me was then in her early 40′s. She asked me to go where they wash people hair and she started washing my hair. Suddenly, I felt that her hand was moving very very fast, almost like a machine in a circle motion above my head. I felt heat above my head and a cone shape energy above my head. I had my eyes closed. Then creatures appeared in my head. They looked like humans but quite different in body size and head type. Their body was small, about two feet, with a round big head with very big eyes. I felt that they were investigating my brain. All of the sudden, I realized their presence in my head and one of them, the female, told the other being that I found out about their presence in my head. After that they disappeared. Then I felt that the heat dissipated and the lady that was washing my head had stopped moving. I also remember that when the lady started to cut my hair, she accidentally got a small cut with the scissors on her finger.
After that I was in state of shock, thinking of what had happened to me. To distract myself, it was about 6 pm, I went to play Black Jack. I remember playing and only winning for almost one hour then I stopped playing and went for a nap.
From that time I developed a great interest in Space and knowing more about UFO’s.
Now I live in Jordan. I am a Mechanical Engineer and business man in the Solar Energy sector.
I watch Science Discovery on TV and that where I found out about your organization and decided to file this report.
Many aliens are already living among us but we haven’t discovered them because they are much smarter that us in that sense that they can change their appearance that make it practically impossible for us humans to detect their presence. Could this theory be possible? – MUFON CMS
A conservation success story off the coast of California has seen blue whales thriving in recent years.
Measuring up to 100ft in length and weighing in at more than 200 tons, the blue whale is the largest and heaviest living creature to have ever existed in the entire history of the world.
Unfortunately whaling and other human activities have been responsible for a significant decline in blue whale numbers over the years, reducing their population from hundreds of thousands to only around 5,000 to 12,000 individuals at the turn of the century.
Despite pessimistic forecasts about the future of the species however there has been some good news in recent months thanks to increasing numbers being reported off the coast of California.
Following a ban on whaling by the International Whaling Commission in 1966, blue whale numbers in the North Pacific have slowly risen back to what they were before the practice began. Researchers believe that the current population there is now almost 97% of that indicated by historical records.
While there is still a long way to go to restore blue whale numbers across the world, the news is a welcome breath of fresh air in an age dominated by stories of species decline and indicates that we may yet be able to prevent these giants of the deep from disappearing forever.

Bolivia’s famed mirror-like salt flats, Salar de Uyuni, and the neighboring mountain Pampa Auallagas may harbor the fabled lost city of Atlantis, according to author Jim Allen.
Allen is a former aerial-photograph interpreter for the British Army. He has scanned the views of Salar de Uyuni and its surrounding land features, noting key similarities between this region and ancient Greek descriptions of Atlantis.
The philosopher Plato referred to both a continent named Atlantis and an island city named Atlantis, explained Allen, and he said it is only the city that is described as having been submerged in one day and one night. Read more at The Epoch Times
(N.Morgan) The video below explores supposed UFO wreckage and an alien storage facility at Wright Patterson Air Force Base. The video documentary investigates claims that the US government are storing UFO craft and alien bodies at secret bases. Sky Faction goes in search of UFO Wreckage and Alien Storage Facilities, one of the few UFO documentaries ever based on Wright Patterson Air Force Base. Some background on Wright Patterson Sir Force Base: Since 1947, the year of the famous Roswell crash, there have been rumors that the US government has stored debris and artifacts from crash flying saucers, and even bodies of the small, alien crew members of the downed space ships. Much of the evidence of these crash retrievals leads us to Dayton, Ohio, and Wright-Patterson’s Hangar-18.
How much of the legend surrounding the famous Wright-Patterson facility is true? Are there still alien beings… even possibly live beings, from other worlds at the infamous base in Dayton, Ohio? Originally called Wilbur Wright Field, the government installation was first opened in 1917 to train military personnel during the first World War. Soon, Fairfield Air Depot was created, adjacent to Wright Field. In 1924, McCook Field test facility was closed, and the Dayton community purchased 4,500 acres which housed the various facilities. This took in the previously leased land of Wright Field, and the Wright and Fairfield facilities were combined into one. The newly created facility was named after the innovators of flight, the Wright Brothers.
On July 6, 1931, the area east of Huffman Dam, which included Wilbur Wright Field, Fairfield Air Depot, and the Huffman Prairie was renamed Patterson Field. This was to honor the memory of Lt. Frank Stuart Patterson. Patterson died in 1918, when a plane he was flying a test in, crashed after its wings separated from the craft. In 1948, the fields were merged under one name, Wright-Patterson AFB. Wright-Patterson is instrumental in testing new weapon technology, along with research and development, education, and many other defense related operations. It is the home of the Air Force Institute of Technology, supporting the Air Force and the Department of Defense. The USAF’s National Air & Space Intelligence Center is also part of Wright-Patterson.
The base was well known for reverse engineering of foreign government aircraft during the Cold War. The base expertise in the disassembly and recreation of MIG fighters has only enriched the theories that alien craft have been studied there. The workforce is estimated at 22,000, giving us an idea of the massive amount of work being done at the base. Wright-Patterson is most well known for its connection to the Roswell crash, although links can be made to other crash retrievals. Several eyewitness accounts of military personnel and even civilian workers who handled debris from the Roswell crash, and saw bodies of creatures not of our world, give us a very plausible Wright-Patterson connection to the study of alien technology and physiology. The same day that the famous Roswell headlines ran in newspapers around the world, there was an enormous amount of activity at the Roswell base. Some debris from the crash, and possibly alien bodies were sent to Ft. Worth, Texas. It is now commonly accepted by researchers that before the Ft. Worth flight, another flight to Wright-Patterson had already taken place, carrying debris and alien bodies. This shipment was secretly stored and studied in the infamous Hangar-18.
A photo from the online archive of the Apollo 11 mission reveals what appears to be a base on the far side of the moon.
The object appears to be on the moon’s surface and is well illuminated. It is symmetrical with a long shaft separated at each end by a small sphere with another in the center. The spheres appear to be living quarters with connecting corridors.
The photo, AS11-41-6155, (below image) is significant since whistleblowers have claimed that NASA regularly scrubs or destroys photos with any evidence of alien life or artificial structures.
Karl Wolf, an Air Force sergeant who was assigned to the National Security Agency, said that mysterious structures were discovered on the far side of the moon when the United States was mapping its surface before the 1969 lunar landing. Those photos too were culled out of the public record.
Dr Ken Johnston who was a manager of NASA’s Data and Photo Control Department. Johnston claims that he also witnessed moon photos showing artificial structures and was asked to destroy the photos. He refused and was fired by NASA.
In conclusion, Apollo 11 image AS11-41-6155 may be a smoking gun proof of an alien base on the far side of the moon
There’s been an uproar this week following a Popular Science report that revealed the existence of more than a dozen cell phone-type towers across the United States for which no owner could be located or operator identified.
Business Insider reported the towers “appear to be connecting to nearby phones, bypassing their encryption, and either tapping calls or reading texts.”
The report said the “fake communication towers are undetectable” for most telephone users, but a new and pricey product, called a cryptophone, confirmed a number of “bogus cell phone towers.”
As for those who own and run the towers? Les Goldsmith, an expert in phone technology, said it just isn’t known.
“What we find suspicious is that a lot of these interceptors are right on top of U.S. military bases. So we begin to wonder – are some of them U.S. government interceptors? Or are some of them Chinese interceptors?” he asked in a Popular Science interview. “Whose interceptor is it? Who are they, that’s listening to calls around military bases? Is it just the U.S. military, or are they foreign governments doing it? The point is: we don’t really know whose they are.”
Whatever the source, America has an increasing privacy problem, according to experts in the field.
“The [National Security Agency] revelations of the past year show that we have no privacy,” said John Whitehead, president of the Rutherford Institute, a nonprofit civil liberties organization.
Whitehead is also the author of “A Government of Wolves: The Emerging American Police State.”
Keep up with the threats to your privacy, get “A Government of Wolves: The Emerging American Police State,” and “Police State USA: How Orwell’s Nightmare is Becoming our Reality,” as soon as you can.
“All of our records and communications are being monitored, tracked, uploaded and stored,” he said.
Cheryl Chumley, author of “Police State USA: How Orwell’s Nightmare is Becoming our Reality,” agreed.
“Law enforcement is seeming to suggest that these phony towers are the brainchild of hackers and data thieves – and that means cell phone users around the nation need to realize their so-called private conversations are vulnerable,” she said.
“Privacy as we know it in America is dead. Drone technology is blossoming, the federal government’s already been tapping into private social media messaging, all in the name of security, the private sector is latching on to emerging technology that puts the likes of audio and video recording devices in store mannequins, and now comes a new – and unknown – entity that’s listening in on cell phone conversations.”
Whitehead said the government intelligence “agency would have to know about these towers and their existence, and they have not alerted the public.”
“If these are private interests, it could very well be tied into a government intelligence agency’s programs,” he said. “For example, it has been revealed that the NSA is working openly with Google, and Amazon just built a multi-million dollar intelligence cloud to be shared by all 17 intelligence agencies.”
Whitehead added, “What we once called privacy has clearly been extinguished, and once the drones blanket the skies beginning in 2015, even those who thought they could get off the grid will no longer be able to do so.”
Chumley said it’s “crucial for Americans to understand that putting the technology genie back in the bottle just isn’t going to happen.”
“The best course of action is assume all phone conversations, all social media messaging, and computerized correspondences are being tapped and hacked – because the truth is, they very well could be,” she said.
Radio talk-show host Katherine Albrecht, whose Spychips website tracks privacy invasions, told WND she differs from Whitehead and Chumley.
It’s very important to watch for such developments, she said.
“Is our government doing this? Or is a rogue government doing this to eavesdrop on sensitive communications?” she asked.
She said while neither is good, the idea that a foreign power, such as China or ISIS, setting up communications monitoring locations across the United States is scary.
However, it just confirms her opinion, she said, that if there is an opening for exploiting computer software, it will happen.
“This is not the time to thrown in the towel,” she said. “This is time to roll up the sleeves.”
She’s also been a key promoter of StartMail encrypted email and encrypted search functions on the Web.
According to Business Insider, there were 17 fake cell phone towers found across the U.S.
VentureBeat reported they don’t likely belong to the NSA, because “that agency can tap all it wants without the need for bogus towers.”
BI reported ComputerWorld revealed the fake towers knock the performance of a 4G phone down to that of a 2G, giving away their operations.
The Popular Science report focused on the specialized security telephones now becoming available. As part of that, it revealed that one of the phones had detected “interceptors” across the U.S., in Seattle, Denver, Los Angeles, Dallas, several points in Nevada and Arizona, Chicago, Ohio and other eastern points.
In the report, Goldsmith said: “Interceptor use in the U.S. is much higher than people had anticipated. One of our customers took a road trip from Florida to North Carolina and he found eight different interceptors on that trip. We even found one at South Point Casino in Las Vegas.”
The report said the towers are “radio-equipped computers with software that can use arcane cellular network protocols and defeat the onboard encryption. Whether your phone uses Android or iOS, it also has a second operating system that runs on a part of the phone called a baseband processor. The baseband processor functions as a communications middleman between the phone’s main O.S. and the cell towers. And because chip manufacturers jealously guard details about the baseband O.S., it has been too challenging a target for garden-variety hackers.”
But the report said for governments, such interception is simple.
BI reported: “Whenever he wants to test out his company’s ultra-secure smart phone against an interceptor, Goldsmith drives past a certain government facility in the Nevada desert. (To avoid the attention of the gun-toting counter-intelligence agents in black SUVs who patrol the surrounding roads, he won’t identify the facility to Popular Science). He knows that someone at the facility is running an interceptor …”
A new report from CBS in Chicago said there actually were 19 such “eavesdropping devices across the country, including at least one in Chicago.” – WND
NOTE:To those who are reef aquarium enthusiasts (like I am), the mantis shrimp is nicknamed ‘thumb splitter’…they hide in coral or rock and use the appendage in front to stun it’s prey. They also get into reef rock used for aquariums. They can use the appendage like a little hammer and actually break aquarium glass. As well, they can cause some serious damage on fingers if you happen to come across one. I had a mantis shrimp split my right index finger wide open, needing 6 stitches to close it. This particular mantis shrimp was less than 1 inch long…Lon
Just when you thought it was safe to go into the water.
A massive, 18-inch crustacean was pulled from the water off a Florida dock leaving state wildlife officials not only shocked but initially scratching their heads.
The scaly creature featuring multiple legs and claws was described as “striking its own tail” when reeled in off a Fort Pierce dock.
The unfazed fisherman “grabbed it by its back like a lobster,” said the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission in a Facebook post showcasing its photos Thursday.
It’s believed to be some kind of mantis shrimp.
“These types of crustaceans have eyes on stalks that can move independently of one another,” said the commission.
The jumbo shrimp was reeled in off a Fort Pierce dock by a fisherman. It’s believed to be a type of mantis shrimp, but which species scientists said they aren’t yet sure.

Reaction to the jumbo shrimp on the FWC’s Facebook page proved to be a mix of watery mouths and pure disgust.

Sir David Attenborough has said he would like to find the Abominable Snowman during his lifetime.
The renowned naturalist and broadcaster was speaking at the launch of UKTV’s Natural Curiosities on Watch when he made the comments about his ambition.
He said there are “one or two” mythical creatures he would like to discover: “I wouldn’t mind finding the Abominable Snowman for a start.
“There is still a mystery about the Abominable Snowman, there are teeth that were found back in the 1920s, huge molar teeth about six times the size of ours, immense things, they were found in a Chinese druggist’s store and undoubtedly are the teeth of a giant ape that must have lived relatively recently itself and that could have been the Abominable Snowman.”
Last year, the 88-year-old said he believed the Abominable Snowman might be real, with previous fossil discoveries pointing at a great ape that stood over 10ft tall.
“It is not impossible that it might exist. If you have walked the Himalayas there are these immense forests that go on for hundreds of square miles which could hold the Yeti,” he said.
“If there are some still alive and you walked near their habitat you can bet that these creatures may be aware of you, but you wouldn’t be aware of them.”
While Attenborough admitted that Yeti may no longer exist, he said there is always a chance: “I don’t say I necessarily believe in it, I’m saying that there is evidence and of course one of the very difficult things ever to do is prove a negative, to prove that it doesn’t exist.”
Earlier this year, scientists Bryan Sykes analysed the DNA of “Yeti hair” samples to find out if the creature exists.
Published in the journal Proceedings of The Royal Society B, he found one sample matched with the DNA of a polar bear dating back to 40,000 years ago, leading him to suggest that the Abominable Snowman could be a hybrid species of polar bear and brown bear that might still exist today.
“If these bears are widely distributed in the Himalayas, they may well contribute to the biological foundation of the Yeti legend,” he said. – Yahoo
You’ve probably seen her before. Captured in grainy 16mm Kodachrome color film, she walks upstream along a sandbar on the opposite edge of a creek. It’s an easy gait, brisk yet casual. Her knees are bent; her elongated arms swing freely at her sides. In a moment suspended in time, she glances back. Large eyes. Flat nose. Well-muscled back, buttocks and thighs. A large pair of conspicuous breasts dangle from her chest like sandbags.
She’s big — 7 feet and 3 inches tall, some say, and 700 or more pounds. She’s also almost entirely covered in dark brown hair.
To skeptics, she’s just a hoax, an imposter in an ape suit. But to any Bigfoot investigator worth his salt, she’s “Patty.”
This iconic footage, known as the Patterson-Gimlin film, is widely considered the gold standard by which every other piece of Bigfoot evidence is weighed. Cryptozoologist Loren Coleman, who runs the International Cryptozoology Museum in Portland, Maine, likens the footage to the Zapruder film of John F. Kennedy’s assassination. It’s the best and and most controversial proof there is that large and elusive apelike hominoids roam the North American backwoods, and have been since antiquity. For Bigfoot believers, the comparison couldn’t be more apt.
No one appreciates this more than Bob Gimlin, an 82-year-old horse handler from Yakima, Washington — the surviving half of the film’s namesake. When we meet at a diner in Union Gap, he says he’s got “a little gift” for me out in his truck. After rummaging through his black Escalade pickup, he hands me a batteries-not-included “Sasqwatch” that he personally autographed the night before. Read more at Inlander
Highest Ranking NSA Whistle-Blower Of All Time Addresses The UFO Question – See What He Had To Say
Highest Ranking NSA Whistle-Blower Of All Time Addresses The UFO Question – See What He Had To Say
Just as Edward Snowden made huge headlines (and still is) all over the world, William Binney did the same in 2001 when he resigned from the National Security Agency (NSA) after 9/11 and blew the lid on an NSA mass surveillance program.
He worked for the agency for more than thirty years, and was the leading code-breaker against the Soviet Union during the Cold War. He’s had quite the run, starting in 2002 when he let the public know of a system ( ‘trailblazer’) intended to analyze data carried on communication networks (like the internet). He exposed the agencies eavesdropping program and has faced harassment from the FBI, NSA and more. He has been in and out of the court room ever since he decided to resign and blow the whistle.
Here is a quick Wiki write up about him, a simple Google search will confirm who he is for those who have never heard of him.
Binney was recently interviewed on 9/11 Free Fall Radio, where he said:
“We selectively ignore basic facts. What I mean by a basic fact is something that’s just there that needs to be addressed, even if they can’t explain it they should have said “we can’t explain this but it’s there” so they at least recognize that this basic fact existed. My problem is, just like the UFO thing, unless they start addressing these kinds of things, peoples observations or basic measurements or factual evidence that simply exists, unless they start addressing them there’s always going to be questions, especially now with the government, how much trust do you have with this government? They’ve been spying, putting whistle blowers in jail, torturing, and giving immunity to people who commit these kinds of crimes, how much trust can you put in a government like that? When you selectively ignore these kids of things…..”(source 10-12 minute mark)
It’s great to hear someone who had such a long career with the NSA mention UFOs (although many high ranking defence personnel have made remarkable statements: see here), and the importance of governments addressing the phenomenon that is flooded with “people’s observations” and “factual evidence.” Clearly, Binney is aware of the phenomenon and the seriousness of the issue.
UFOs and extraterrestrial life is one of the most popular questions of our time. In the United States alone, at least half of all Americans say that we’re not alone in the universe. Fifty percent of Americans already believe that there is some form of life on other planets, while only seventeen percent think that there isn’t. A quarter of Americans believe that intelligent extraterrestrial visitors have already come to Earth and have been doing so for a long time.(source)
Will North American Governments Ever Properly Address The UFO Phenomenon?
Binney brings up a great point, and for him to put UFOs and “factual evidence” in the same category was great and very brave of him.
The NSA (for example) has released files that clearly indicate their interest in the UFO phenomenon, HERE is one example, and HERE is another, documenting in detail an encounter military jets had with a UFO when they were ordered to go take a look at them (common phenomenon). To read more about what happens when a UFO is tracked on military radar, click HERE.
I still wouldn’t call releasing these files properly addressing the questions and concerns of the people. Dozens of other governments around the world have released thousands of previously classified UFO documentation, yet important questions still remain that they have not addressed. To see an example from the UK, click HERE.
The release of these files indicate that governments and defense agencies have documented, studied and allocated resources to studying the UFO phenomenon, and have kept the fact that they are doing so a secret for a very long time. You can be sure that a lot of information on the subject probably still remains heavily classified. They are holding all of this information, and have gathered so much of it yet we don’t have any access to it.
It’s not a secret that governments keep secrets, the United States alone classifies approximately 500 million pages of documents every year, and the release of previously classified information is a great example of that.
So will North American governments ever properly address the UFO phenomenon? I don’t know, but the information is leaking out there regardless. Again, they’ve been studying and gathering information on this phenomenon for decades, and they have access to information and data that we don’t, and that’s not fair.
Here’s something to think about:
“If you have a big secret, that you want the world to know about, you may not want to throw it out there all at once. In other words, there may be some kind of slow acculturation process, I think there is probably something like that going on. I think there is a lot of disinformation going on as well.” – Richard Dolan, Author, Historian (source)
“I don’t believe we will ever truly be ready for disclosure, but that will never stop it from happening. Who’s ever ready to have their first child? Nobody, they have it anyway. It will be forced upon the political leaders and it will be a big mess. Anytime you have some sort of growth, whether it’s personal spiritual growth, or political growth in this society, that means you shed illusions, you shed lies, and that’s a difficult prices, and we have to go through that process. There are many billions of people on this world who are attached to a certain paradigm, a certain way of picturing the world, and disclosure will just shatter that. So it will be difficult, but the alternative is being spoon fed lies the rest of your life.” Richard Dolan(same source as above quote)
From everything I’ve looked into, there are some within the world of secrecy that want the truth to come out, and others who want it to remain.
“There is abundant evidence that we are being contacted, that civilizations have been monitoring us for a very long time. That their appearance is bizarre from any type of traditional materialistic western point of view. That these visitors use the technologies of consciousness, they use toroids, they use co-rotating magnetic disks for their propulsion systems, that seems to be a common denominator of the UFO phenomenon” (source) - Dr. Brian O’leary, Former NASA Astronaut and Princeton Physics Professor
“Decades ago, visitors from other planets warned us about the direction we were heading and offered to help. Instead, some of us interpreted their visits as a threat, and decided to shoot first and ask questions after. Trillions of dollars have been spent on black projects which both congress and the commander in chief have deliberately been kept in the dark.”- Paul Hellyer, Former Canadian Defense Minister (source)
Whether our governments agree to properly address the issue and share with us the information they’veaccumulated over the years or not, the answers will come in the form of whistleblowers, leaked documents (like wikileaks) or something else.
So what do you think? Do you think North American governments will ever properly address the phenomenon?

Werden de Britten tijdens WOI gered door engelen?
Werden de Britten tijdens WOI gered door engelen?
Op 23 augustus 1914 kwam het Duitse leger nabij Bergen oog in oog te staan met de Britse interventiemacht. De 80.000 Britten werd geconfronteerd met een twee keer zo grote Duitse troepenmacht. Al na een paar uur trokken de Britten zich terug over de Franse grens.
In de dagen daarop zakten de Britten steeds dieper af in Frankrijk, achternagezeten door de Duitsers. De interventiemacht ontsnapte aan totale vernietiging omdat de Duitsers na enkele dagen rechtsomkeert maakten.
In de Engelse krant Evening News verscheen op 29 september een artikel waarin stond dat de achterhoede van de Britten weerstand moest bieden aan de grootschalige Duitse aanval. Op een bepaald moment riep één van hen in het Latijn: “Moge Sint-Joris de Engelen bijstaan.”
Daarop verscheen een lange rij gedaanten in een schijnsel. Duizenden Duitse soldaten werden gedood en de aanval werd afgeslagen. Sint-Joris, de beschermheilige van Engeland, had de hulp ingeroepen van engelen, aldus de krant.
Op 3 april 1915 meldde een andere Engelse krant dat twee Britse officieren bij terugtrekking uit Bergen hadden gezien hoe een groep engelen zich tussen de linies had geplaatst. Het gevolg was dat de Duitsers niet meer schoten, zodat de Britten konden ontsnappen. De dochter van een koorheer zou het verhaal van de officieren hebben gehoord.
Vanaf dat moment werden verhalen over reddende engelen in Engeland zeer serieus genomen. Een verpleegster zei van gewonde soldaten te hebben gehoord hoe bovennatuurlijke wezens de Britse troepen te hulp waren geschoten. En soldaat Robert Cleaver verklaarde onder ede dat hij de engelen met eigen ogen had gezien.
Er zijn ook mensen die beweren dat de Britten beelden van engelen met een reusachtige schijnwerper op de wolken hadden geprojecteerd of dat de verhalen over engelen de wereld in zijn geholpen door geestelijken of de Britse geheime dienst om het moreel op te vijzelen.
Hoewel na onderzoek bleek dat de meeste verhalen op geruchten waren gebaseerd, herinnerden sommige soldaten zich ook vreemde lichtverschijnselen te hebben gezien. Over de ‘Angels of Mons’ zijn tijdens de Eerste Wereldoorlog een aantal boeken verschenen. Ook na de oorlog bleef het onderwerp boeien.

"Hair of the Alien" & "the Alien DNA paradigm" redux: 1999 - 2014 & beyond
"Hair of the Alien" -
"the single most convincing fact ever found in support of the physical reality of aliens" - Whitley Strieber author of the best selling book “Communion” - in "Whitley's Journal", Sunday August 7th, 2005
“In his remarkable book(“Hair of the Alien”) leading Australian researcher Bill Chalker, who has a background in chemistry and mathematics, describes his exemplary investigations into what has turned out to be arguably the most convincing case for alien abduction (the Peter Khoury case)” - Timothy Good “Earth – an alien Enterprise” (2013)
Historian Richard Dolan has included a limited summary of the breakthrough Khoury “Hair of the Alien” DNA research story in his book “UFOs for the 21st century mind – a fresh guide to an ancient mystery” (2014) as a good example of “Encounters with “Them” that “are difficult to dismiss out of hand.”
"Hair of the Alien" brings us closer than ever before to understanding our past, our origins, and our place in the universe" - from the back cover of the book.

UFO mania: Out of place and time - Ancient nanostructures found in Ural mountains.
UFO mania: Out of place and time - Ancient nanostructures found in Ural mountains
In 1991, the appearance of extremely tiny, coil-shaped artifacts found near the banks of Russia’s Kozhim, Narada, and Balbanyu rivers brought about a debate that has continued to this day. These mysterious and minuscule structures suggest that there may have been a culture capable of developing nanotechnology 300,000 years ago.
These manufactured coils were initially discovered during geological research associated with the extraction of gold in the Ural mountains. These pieces include coils, spirals, shafts, and other unidentified components.
According to an analysis from the Russian Academy of Sciences in Syktyvkar, the largest pieces found are mostly copper, while the smallest are made of tungsten and molybdenum.
While the largest of these objects measure 1.18 inches, the smallest are only 1/10,000th of an inch, and many exhibit Golden Mean proportions. Their shape suggests that they are manufactured and not naturally occurring metal fragments. In fact, they have been found to closely resemble the same miniature components of contemporary nanotechnology.
Though some have asserted that these tiny structures are merely debris left behind from test rockets being launched from nearby Plesetsk space station, a report from the Moscow Institute determined that they are far too old to have come from modern manufacturing.
In 1996, Dr. E.W. Matvejeva, from the Central Scientific Research Department of Geology and Exploitation of Precious Metals in Moscow, writes that, despite being thousands of years old, the components are of a technological origin.
The pieces were found at a depth between 10 and 40 feet, in a geological stratus between 20,000 and 318,000 years old.
How were humans able to manufacture such tiny components in the distant past, and what were they used for? Some believe that the coils prove the human race enjoyed a sophisticated level of technology in the Pleistocene era, while others assert that the findings are the work of extraterrestrials.
The artifacts have been studied at four different facilities in Helsinki, St. Petersburg, and Moscow. However, further research into these tiny structures seems to have ended in 1999 with the death of Dr. Johannes Fiebag, a principal researcher of the find.

UFO mania: Mystery of the Tayos Cave - Legendary Metal Library Found in Ecuador
UFO mania: Mystery of the Tayos Cave - Legendary Metal Library Found in Ecuador
In what maybe one of the biggest discoveries ever, a team of explorers is claiming that they have found the legendary golden library and other mysterious treasures in the Tayos Cave system in Ecuador.
The team announced that they accidentally found some hidden tunnels that were obviously dug out artificially sometime in the ancient past while inside one of the main chambers. The team was able to follow one of these tunnels for approximately ½ mile and came upon a large room containing the golden library and various other treasures.
Below is a list of what the explorers claim to have found in this chamber:
1. A library with thousands of metal books. The team was unable to specify what metal the books were made of but the look was similar to silver. Each page had symbols and strange writing on them.
2. Individual plates with writing on them and strange symbols that looked to be made of gold.
3. At least several hundred statues of insects, animals and humans spread throughout the large chamber.
4. Lots of metal bars thought to be both gold and/or silver. Also found were various children’s toys and jewelry items made from gold or silver.
5. One large sarcophagus containing one human skeleton decorated with jewels and golden jewelry.
6. The team also found at least three doors that could be more tombs but were sealed completely shut.
As of right now, the team has only announced their findings onto a radio show and no other announcements have been made so the jury is still out as too whether their claims are completely true.
The team did claim to have samples of at least one of the metal books, one golden plate and several small statues that they will be submitting to professional testing so hopefully this will give us answers shortly.

Square UFO over St. Louis, Missouri on 1st September 2014
Square UFO over St. Louis, Missouri on 1st September 2014
New amazing video footage of a square UFO sighting recorded in the night sky above St. Louis, Missouri on 1st September 2014.
News said: A Labor Day lightning storm put on a spectacular show for St. Louis Monday night. Some of the storm’s flashes were used during live cut-aways during the FOX 2’s nightly newscast. Some viewers say they saw something strange at around 9:07pm.
Anchor Shirley Washington explains that meteorologist Chris Higgins will be giving updates on the severe weather in the area throughout the newscast. Over her voice is a view from FOX 2’s roof camera. During that shot something flashes across the screen. The flying object is illuminated by flashes of lightning. In the blink of an eye it is gone.
A military combat instructor says he caught a UFO on video that could not be seen by the naked eye. He described the object as a “Slow flying, low, silent, see-through triangle.”
We recently posted a story about UFO sightings from the North Carolina beaches near the town of Wilmington. We received many responses from others in the area who also had sightings. However, one of the most spectacular cases we received is this one from Leland, North Carolina, which is on the northwest side of Wilmington.
This case was sent to us by a field investigator with the North Carolina chapter of the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), Kenneth Bates. Bates says he believes the craft caught in this video, “while probably not alien, it is a video of a craft that possesses very advanced technology: (1)the ability to ‘cloak’ itself and (2) a reflective component that gives the illusion of transparency.”
He stresses that he, the director of North Carolina MUFON Lakita Adams, and the witness, all feel that the UFO is most likely some sort of advanced military aircraft with a cloaking device.
According to the investigation report filed by Bates, the witness has been in the military or a military contractor for the last 24 years. Currently he is an instructor for close quarters combat.
The witness, who shall remain anonymous, says he was out trying to get a look at the moon with his telescope when the event took place. He wrote, ” It was, I believe, the night after the full moon in May.” He says he always has his night vision goggle with him, and that night he had a PVS-14 night vision monocular with a 3x magnifier on a tripod attached to a video camera, and a pair of PVS-7D goggles around his neck.

While scanning the night sky with his goggles he spotted what he thought to be a plane coming towards him from the north. It was heading south. He says he estimated the object was at about 5000 feet, which is relatively low. He says he is a skydiver and long distance shooter, so he feels he is a good judge of distances.
He thought it was odd that he was not hearing anything, so he started to record the object. He first caught the object on video when it was at about a 75 degree angle, and was amazed that as it passed over he still could hear no sound.
He was further astounded when he noticed through the monocular that as it passed by stars he could see the stars through the craft.
He wrote, “As I’m watching it, I notice that as it’s passing stars, I could see stars through the craft!!!! I saw stars through the “fuselage” of the craft!!! Later, I confirmed this when I reviewed the video.”
He says he watched the object for about 13 to 14 minutes. At one point he had lost track of it. When he took the goggles off he noticed that he could not see the lights from the craft with his bare eyes. He says, “So either all the lights were very dim and the night vision enhanced them like they were made to do, or the lights were infrared, basically naked to the naked eye.”
It finally flew out of sight to the south. He summarized his sighting, “So to recap: 1: it was silent. 2: it was very slow moving. 3: the lights were either very dim or infrared. 4: I could see through it!!! Adaptive camouflage??? First time I’ve seen the real thing. 5: I couldn’t see it without night vision goggles.”

Bates says he was able to speak to the witness and obtain the video you see at the top of this story. In his report, Bates described the object as a “Triangular craft with five lights in a 2-1-1-1, ( L-R ) one of them flashing.”
Bates found that the witness’ report matched the video perfectly and found him to be “highly credible.”
Bates says three things in particular make this case unique:
1. On two occasions it appears that the craft flies in front of celestial objects but they can be “seen” THROUGH the body of the craft.
2. The witness states the craft was visible only though NV/IR device.
3. The five-light configuration (back to front: 2-1-1-1) is unknown to us (the lead light might be triangular?)

Upon review of the video, the object does seem to be directly overhead, and although you can hear the witness messing with his equipment and whispering to himself in amazement, there is no aircraft noise. As Bates and the witness have stated, as the craft flies in front of stars the stars remain visible. The witness says the craft was triangular shaped, and if that is the case, the stars being seen through the craft would be very strange.
However, if the craft is shaped like a normal airplane or a helicopter, where we expect there to be structure, there may not be. Then again, watching the video with this frame of mind, I looked for a flicker as a wing or skinny bit of fuselage passed in front of the stars. I see no such flicker. The stars seem to be consistent in luminosity.
As for the witness not being able to see the aircraft’s lights with his naked eyes, that is possible using conventional technology. In fact, the military currently uses aircraft lights that can be used in a mode that can only be seen by night vision equipment. One distributor of such lights writes on their website, “When in the covert mode individuals not wearing night vision aids cannot easily detect these light sources, however they are readily recognized through Night Vision Goggles.”
A NASA tech brief states, “Covert lighting on military aircraft is increasingly being implemented on existing airframes…”
While the technology used to make the light visible to night vision equipment and not to the naked eyes is nothing extraordinary, when it comes to running in complete silence, and using cloaking devices, well, that is straight out of Science Fiction.
It has been suggested that the stars appearing to be seen through the craft might be an illusion caused by the night vision optics. Perhaps that is the case. I have reached out to experts on that topic and will update you with their responses.
In the interest of getting this story out to you all I am not waiting before I post this, but be sure to check back for updates. Many of these UFO stories are ever evolving, just like the earlier North Carolina UFO story, which continues to generate responses.
If you are a night vision expert, or even a hobbyist, or if you have any input whatsoever, please feel free to respond below. Your help in shedding more light on this mysterious, and fascinating, night vision video is greatly appreciated.
With an article title like that above, you might think that I’m talking about the way in which the legendary, creepy Men in Black make it their business to shut people up – and specifically UFO witnesses and researchers. Well, I’m actually not. The silencing I refer to does relate to the MIB, but not in the way you might assume. If that all sounds a bit confusing, well, read on. All will soon become clear…
About three weeks ago, I flew down to Houston, Texas to do a TV shoot for a forthcoming, 90-minute documentary. The subject was the controversy surrounding those mysterious, dark-suited characters that have plagued Ufology for decades. Since I have written extensively on the MIB, I often get asked to do television shows on the subject. Generally, they run smoothly. Not on this occasion, however.
It all kicked-off fine – at least, from my perspective. Things began chronologically, and I began to tell the story of Albert Bender, the brains behind the International Flying Saucer Bureau, who, in the early 1950s, was terrorized into silence by the Men in Black.
I explained that Bender’s MIB were far less like those of the Men in Black movies (with Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones), and far more like something befitting the likes of an H.P. Lovecraft novel.
The producer stopped me in mid-sentence (which was the first thing that pissed me off big-time) and asked me what I meant. Well, had he not stuck his nose in, he would have known what I meant!
I explained that although popular-culture generally portrays the MIB as the “secret agents” of government groups, or (as in the aforementioned Smith-Jones films) of super-secret bodies that operate outside of the official government, the real Men in Black were very different.
Less getting jiggy with it, more terrifying the crap out of you
With the cameras rolling, I said that Albert Bender’s MIB did not knock on his door, flash ID cards, and proceed to petrify him into silence, as many might assume. No: they materialized (as in literally materialized) in his attic-based bedroom in Bridgeport, Connecticut, amid nothing less than a foul odor similar to demonic brimstone! On top of that, their eyes shone – in fact, they almost glowed.
The MIB were thin, pale, and near-vampire-like in appearance. They “spoke” with Bender in telepathic fashion. It was an exchange that provoked intense dizziness, pounding headaches, and both psychological and physical disturbances, including overwhelming exhaustion. It was, I said, as if Bender had been the subject of nothing less than a full-blown demonic attack.
I then proceeded to state how, as someone who writes regularly on the MIB, I get dozens of reports of encounters with the dark-suited ones, per year. I also noted that the overwhelming majority of the cases I receive are of the Bender variety, rather than of the Smith-Jones type.
The producer looked aghast. This was not what he expected or – clearly – wanted to hear. What he wanted from me was a great deal of talk on “government agents,” hidden groups in the military and the intelligence community, and so on. Blah, blah, blah.
Again, I explained that what he was referring to was the pop-culture version of the MIB. If he wanted that, he really should have asked someone else to be on the show.
Then came a question that I most certainly didn’t expect to hear (although, given some of the scummy shows I’ve worked on over the years, I guess I shouldn’t have been surprised). It went something like this: “Could you talk about the Men in Black in general, and avoid things like the paranormal links and the glowing eyes?”
Are you sure you want to talk about UFOs
In other words, pretend that the cases of the Bender kind simply didn’t exist!
I replied that no, I could not do that. Whether the producer liked it or liked it not, that’s how it was and how it still is: the MIB are clearly not the agents of government; of any government. They are far, far weirder.
The guy complained that the “secret agent” angle was the one they were pursuing – and the only one they were pursuing. I said, in that case, the show would not just be inaccurate, but it would be deliberately inaccurate, if I were to kiss TV ass.
I made a joke about how it wasn’t just the MIB that were silencing UFO researchers, but it was now TV companies, too! My sarcasm was not appreciated – not that I gave a damn, though.
I have done a lot of paranormal-themed TV shows in the last twenty years – or thereabouts – but I can state with certainty that, in the last year or two, things have definitely changed for the worse.
More and more, I’m asked to skirt around the facts for the sake of entertainment – something which I won’t do. More and more, I’m asked to avoid bringing up certain things that might impact negatively on the show. Well, that’s too bad: I won’t bow down to that crap either.
How surreal and ironic things have become: I fly to Houston to do a TV show on Ufology’s most sinister silencers, and I find the TV company trying to silence my words on the silencers!
Although they failed to shut me up, and I told it as I see it – namely, that the MIB are paranormal, and not from “the government” – I don’t doubt that my interview will suffer a far worse fate than anything the MIB could ever dish up. That means, I will be subjected to the editing process and the cutting-room floor…
(N.Morgan) The Bermuda Triangle has been one of those fascinating mysteries that seems to have m ore questions than answers. Intriguing and somewhat daunting, the mystery surrounding the many disappearances of airplanes and other crafts over or around that area has been the subject of movies and books. We will explore some of those questions and look into the mysteries of this foreboding region.Some believe the Triangle is a secret base for alien life, while others believe it is something other worldly all together. The Bermuda Triangle, also known as the Devil’s Triangle, is a loosely defined region in the western part of the North Atlantic Ocean, where a number of aircraft and ships are said to have disappeared under mysterious circumstances.
According to the US Navy, the triangle does not exist, and the name is not recognized by the US Board on Geographic Names. Popular culture has attributed various disappearances to the paranormal or activity by extraterrestrial beings. Documented evidence indicates that a significant percentage of the incidents were spurious, inaccurately reported, or embellished by later authors. In a 2013 study, the World Wide Fund for Nature identified the world’s 10 most dangerous waters for shipping, but the Bermuda Triangle was not among them.
The earliest allegation of unusual disappearances in the Bermuda area appeared in a September 17, 1950 article published in The Miami Herald (Associated Press) by Edward Van Winkle Jones. Two years later, Fate magazine published “Sea Mystery at Our Back Door”,a short article by George X. Sand covering the loss of several planes and ships, including the loss of Flight 19, a group of five U.S. Navy TBM Avenger bombers on a training mission. Sand’s article was the first to lay out the now-familiar triangular area where the losses took place. Flight 19 alone would be covered again in the April 1962 issue of American Legion magazine. In it, author Allan W. Eckert wrote that the flight leader had been heard saying, “We are entering white water, nothing seems right. We don’t know where we are, the water is green, no white.” He also wrote that officials at the Navy board of inquiry stated that the planes “flew off to Mars.”Sand’s article was the first to suggest a supernatural element to the Flight 19 incident. In the February 1964 issue of Argosy, Vincent Gaddis’ article “The Deadly Bermuda Triangle” argued that Flight 19 and other disappearances were part of a pattern of strange events in the region.The next year, Gaddis expanded this article into a book, Invisible Horizons.
Others would follow with their own works, elaborating on Gaddis’ ideas: John Wallace Spencer (Limbo of the Lost, 1969, repr. 1973); Charles Berlitz (The Bermuda Triangle, 1974);Richard Winer (The Devil’s Triangle, 1974), and many others, all keeping to some of the same supernatural elements outlined by Eckert.
Police responded to a call about lights in the sky in Lower Paxton Township, Pennsylvania. The police ended up seeing the UFO for themselves. Plus Jason McClellan reports on Tom DeLonge’s recent UFO sighting. That and other UFO news on this episode of Spacing Out!
UFO mania: Scientific Paper Explains the Possible Existence of Reptilian Humanoids
UFO mania: Scientific Paper Explains the Possible Existence of Reptilian Humanoids
Famous chemist Ronald Breslow PhD has recently released a paper explaining the possibility that an ancient advanced Reptilian civilizations exists. The paper was published by the American Chemical Society. (American Chemical Society) - "New scientific research raises the possibility that advanced versions of T. Rex and other dinosaurs — monstrous creatures with the intelligence and cunning of humans — may be the life forms that evolved on other planets in the universe."
"We would be better off not meeting them", concludes the study, which appears in the Journal of the American Chemical Society.
Later edit -- The paper was withdrawn from the website, about one month after I have posted this article, and linked it to their work: "This paper was withdrawn on May 16, 2012 (J. Am. Chem. Soc.2012, 134, 8287)." In the report, noted scientist Ronald Breslow, Ph.D., discusses the century-old mystery of why the building blocks of terrestrial amino acids (which make up proteins), sugars, and the genetic materials DNA and RNA exist mainly in one orientation or shape. There are two possible orientations, left and right, which mirror each other in the same way as hands. This is known as "chirality." In order for life to arise, proteins, for instance, must contain only one chiral form of amino acids, left or right. With the exception of a few bacteria, amino acids in all life on Earth have the left-handed orientation. Most sugars have a right-handed orientation. How did that so-called homochirality, the predominance of one chiral form, happen? Breslow describes evidence supporting the idea that the unusual amino acids carried to a lifeless Earth by meteorites about 4 billion years ago set the pattern for normal amino acids with the L-geometry, the kind in terrestial proteins, and how those could lead to D-sugars of the kind in DNA. “Of course,” Breslow says, “showing that it could have happened this way is not the same as showing that it did.” He adds: “An implication from this work is that elsewhere in the universe there could be life forms based on D-amino acids and L-sugars. Such life forms could well be advanced versions of dinosaurs, if mammals did not have the good fortune to have the dinosaurs wiped out by an asteroidal collision, as on Earth. We would be better off not meeting them.”
The Dinosauroid Hypothesis (a.k.a. Sapient Dinosaurs)
Wikipedia: "In 1982, Dale Russell, then curator of vertebrate fossils at the National Museum of Canada in Ottawa, conjectured a possible evolutionary path for Troodon, if it not had perished in the K/T extinction event 65 million years ago, suggesting that it could have evolved into intelligent beings similar in body plan to humans. Over geologic time, Russell noted that there had been a steady increase in the encephalization quotient or EQ (the relative brain weight when compared to other species with the same body weight) among the dinosaurs. Russell had discovered the first Troodontid skull, and noted that, while its EQ was low compared to humans, it was six times higher than that of other dinosaurs. Russell suggested that if the trend in Troodon evolution had continued to the present, its brain case could by now measure 1,100 cm3; comparable to that of a human. Troodontids had semi-manipulative fingers, able to grasp and hold objects to a certain degree, and binocular vision. Russell proposed that his "Dinosauroid", like members of the troodontid family, would have had large eyes and three fingers on each hand, one of which would have been partially opposed. Russell also speculated that the "Dinosauroid" would have had a tootheless beak. As with most modern reptiles (and birds), he conceived of its genitalia as internal. Russell speculated that it would have required a navel, as a placenta aids the development of a large brain case. However, it would not have possessed mammary glands, and would have fed its young, as some birds do, on regurgitated food. He speculated that its language would have sounded somewhat like bird song." -- Wikipedia; More Supporters of the "Sapient Dinosaurs" Theory
(1977) Aritsune Toyota - "A Japanese science fiction writer was one of the earliest proposers of the idea of sapient dinosaurs. Toyota was intrigued by the theory of the "Warm-blooded Deinonychus" (John Ostrom, 1964) and developed the idea that some kinds of dinosaurs would have evolved to acquire intelligence. He referred to The Hot-blooded Dinosaurs (Desmond, Adrian J., 1975, Rosemarie Buckman, Oxfordshire) and constructed a theoretical model of what they might have been like. He first published his ideas as science fiction in the novel Kako no kageri (A shadow of the past) in 1977. In the story he described them as reptilian humanoids who use bone tools for hunting, speak a primitive language, and build a rudimentary society. The creature was supposed to have evolved from a dinosaur similar to dromaeosaurus. A year later, Toyota received advice from Japanese zoologist Tatsuo Saneyoshi, and began striving for more zoological authenticity on details. He then authored Zoku jikanhō keikaku (Prospectus for the spatiotemporal cannon part 2). He continued to study thropoda, and serialized his novel as Dainosaurusu sakusen (The plan of the dinosaurs) in 1979." - Wikipedia; David Icke
Jordan Maxwell
(1977) Carl Sagan- "In his 1977 book, The Dragons of Eden: Speculations on the Evolution of Human Intelligence, author Carl Sagan speculated about the related genus Saurornithoides evolving into ever more intelligent forms in the absence of any extinction event. In a world dominated by Saurornithoides, Sagan mused, arithmetic would be Base 8 rather than Base 10." (1978) Harry Jerison- "American psychologist Harry Jerison suggested the possibility of sapient dinosaurs. In 1978, he gave a presentation titled "Smart dinosaurs and comparative psychology", at a meeting of the American Psychological Association. According to his speech, dromiceiomimus supposedly could have evolved into a highly intelligent species like human beings."

UFO mania: University of California Scientists: 'Camouflaged' Aliens...
UFO mania: University of California Scientists: 'Camouflaged' Aliens...
Scientists of the University of California came up with an unusual hypothesis suggesting that space aliens have long settled on Earth and lived among us as observers. Of course, there is no evidence of this, but according to ancient sources, including the Bible, our planet has been visited by representatives of extraterrestrial civilizations since its inception. In 2000 scientists of the University of California, led by Professor Jonathan Malkisom, held a press conference, during which the sensational news that representatives of extraterrestrial civilizations have long been among humans was reported. They adopted human appearance and closely monitor our every move.
“It’s like an extreme version of the camouflage found in some insects and animals. Moreover, according to historical records, there have been aliens on Earth from the beginning of creation,” says Adrian Kent of the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Canada.
A confirmation of the words of the Canadian scientist can be found in the Book of Genesis, at the point where the confrontation of Jacob with the Almighty is described:
“And Jacob remained alone; and a man wrestled with him until the rising of the dawn.”
The ancient philosophers were always looking for the answer to the question whether beings arriving from the sky are members of the same tribe as the angels. But as a rule, the answer was no, since the arriving beings were mortal, while the angels live forever.
The question of extraterrestrial civilizations was openly and seriously discussed for the first time only in the twentieth century, especially after the CIA declassified a small part of the archive on the so-called Roswell case, when the U.S. militaries found a crashed flying saucer and delivered its parts to the base.
There is information that in addition to the unknown space object debris, the bodies of three aliens were found and taken to the base. The cause of the incident was the impact of ground radars on the navigation equipment of aliens.
According to another version, the UFO was hit by lightning.
There are reports that U.S. President John F. Kennedy, a few days before his death, asked the head of the CIA to provide all the materials about the incident, but he did not manage to access the most secret archives.
From the 1980′s, many people started claiming that they not only had seen the appearance of a UFO in the sky, but had been inside these objects, and even had come into contact with the aliens.
One of the most famous contactees is Bulgarian prophet Vanga:
“Sometimes one of the aliens takes my hand. They communicate only with a few inhabitants of our planet. They are constantly watching us,” said Vanga about her contacts with representatives of extraterrestrial civilizations.
“The Earth is no longer an 'intermediate base.' They have settled here for a good long time now.”
In January 2011, British scientists announced the need to prepare for emergency meeting with an extraterrestrial civilization, and even suggested the foundation of a special committee at the UN.
Vergeet de Egyptische piramides, Stonehenge of graancirkels. Malibu schijnt al 40 jaar een centrale ontmoetingsplaats te zijn voor buitenaardsen. De voorstad van Los Angeles wordt ook wel de ‘nieuwe buitenaardse hoofdstad van de wereld’ genoemd.
Volgens UFO-expert Michael Luckman, voorzitter van het New York Center for Extraterrestrial Research, zit vlak voor de kust van Malibu een onderzeese basis van buitenaardsen. Hij wil tijdens een speciaal concert een luidspreker en lasers onder water inzetten om contact te leggen met de wezens. Hij wil ook een vloot boten naar de plek sturen waarvan hij vermoedt dat de buitenaardsen zich er schuilhouden.
Malibu-anomalie voor de kust van Point Dume (Google Earth)
De ‘buitenaardse basis’ bevindt zich voor de kust van Malibu en is ongeveer vier kilometer breed. Sommigen spreken al van de ‘Malibu-anomalie’. Jimmy Church van het Dark Matter Radio Network publiceerde beelden van de basis, waar al de nodige artikelen over zijn geschreven. Hij theoretiseert dat de basis mogelijk een poort is die Malibu verbindt met andere plekken op aarde.
Church claimt dat er al 40 jaar lang veel UFO-activiteit is rond Malibu. Inwoners gaan er speciaal voor zitten en kijken toe hoe vreemde lichten in het water verdwijnen of eruit tevoorschijn komen, zegt hij.
Schrijver Robert Stanley was in juli te gast in het programma Coast to Coast van George Noory. Over de ‘buitenaardse basis’ zei Stanley: “Een oude vriend van me, die in het leger heeft gediend en in Malibu woont, weet al 10 jaar van het bestaan van deze anomalie. Hij is zendamateur en pikt al enige tijd signalen op uit die richting die er niet zouden moeten zijn.”
Toen de Huffington Post onderzoek deed naar het fenomeen, kwam een studie uit 2009 naar boven waarin de zogenaamde buitenaardse basis ‘Sycamore Knoll’ wordt genoemd, een opschuivingsbreuk die geologisch gezien deel uitmaakt van het breuksysteem van zuidelijk Californië.
Stanley vertelde dat hij al vaak UFO’s heeft gezien in het gebied, waaronder UFO’s die onder water verdwijnen en op den duur weer boven komen. “Malibu is één van die locaties, er zit een poort,” zei hij. “Ik weet niet of het natuurlijk of kunstmatig is.”
Twee andere luisteraars uit Malibu deelden hun eigen UFO-ervaring. Neal zei dat hij er al 55 jaar woont en omschreef een UFO met een ‘prachtig rood licht’ die hij op een avond in de omgeving van Latigo Canyon had gezien. “Toen ging het object door een poort en was het weg.”
Een andere luisteraar, die zichzelf Jessica noemde, sprak over UFO-activiteit in het gebied rond Topanga Canyon in de jaren negentig. “Op een avond zagen we een moederschip. Het was groter dan het huis.”
Stanley houdt zich bezig met het zoeken naar wat hij ‘megalithische monumenten’ noemt. Hij gelooft dat de aarde in een ver verleden ook al werd bezocht door buitenaardsen. Hij heeft een aantal rotsformaties gevonden die volgens hem door ruimtereizigers zijn gemaakt.

Belief in a government (or quasi-governmental) cover-up is central to the belief system of many people in the UFO community, and in relation to this issue one frequently comes across discussions about the extent to which it’s possible to keep secrets. Having worked for 21 years in an inherently secretive part of the UK government, I thought I’d correct a few popular misconceptions about government secrecy and make some other relevant points on the issue. My knowledge and experience here comes not specifically from my three years on the MoD’s UFO project, but is something gained in the course of my wider 21-year career, which encompassed various postings at a number of different grades. My final posting – to the Directorate of Defence Security – is probably the most relevant one. More....
THREE TRIANGLES OVER LAKE ONTARIOby Cheryl Costa.
On 25 August, little did Gordon realize that a routine chore with his dogs would lead to a sighting of three triangles over Lake Ontario. It was quarter past ten on a clear night in Rochester, NY. Gordon had just let his dogs out for a run in the backyard. His attention was immediately drawn to a bright object in the western sky about 20 degree above the horizon. While it had a flickering quality, Gordon knew it wasn’t a star. More...
MORE AERIAL SIGHTINGS OVER THE NIGHT SKIES OF NELSON, B.C.by Ron Murdock.
In late August 2014 I was awake between 2 and 4 in the morning. I was in bed when it started to vibrate slowly. I got thinking a low magnitude earthquake was happening in Nelson or a large one was occurring on the west coast. I was looking out the window when an object flew over the roof of the building next door. It was the size of a large football was brightly lit up or it was heat radiating from its surface as the light was a bright orange. More...

FIASCO: THE TRUE ACRONYM FOR THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT by Jeff Krause.
As anyone who has ever filed a FOIA (also know as the “Freedom Of Information Act”) request knows, the process for obtaining requested information is seriously broken, to the extent that all agencies to which we commonly request information from have created an art form out of circumnavigating the legal process. The contempt shown by these agencies, and their FOIA Representatives, is apparent with every response, although cloaked in a sense of polite mock-legality. Claims of requested documents “not existing”, and later turning up, are more than just common, it is the norm. More...
THE OLD ROSWELL ARMY BASE IS SEEING A FEW CHANGESby Dennis G. Balthaser .
the base at Roswell was originally opened in 1941 as a pilot training school for the Second World War, and quickly became an important military base during the years of its existence, housing many various air squadrons, and a large contingency of military personnel. Just 4 years after the base opened, the first atomic bomb was tested a short 100 miles from Roswell at Trinity site at White Sands. More...

UFO sighting over Skyros Island, Greece on 12th August 2014
UFO sighting over Skyros Island, Greece on 12th August 2014
New interesting video footage of two bright UFO lights recorded in the night sky above Skyros Island, Greece on 12th August2014.
Witness said: On Tuesday, August 12, shortly after 1 a.m. we saw five Unidentified Flying Objects (UFO) aligned in parallel positions! The 5 objects flew in parallel courses above at least astonished 20 observers who were seated by the beach at Molos, on the Aegean island of Skyros! The event lasted less than one minute, when suddenly the UFOs arrived at a singular point in the sky and disappeared at breakneck speed in the distance. During the next day, we checked with the Port of Skyros, and we were told that they knew of the sighting! They were alerted by other witnesses!! Apparently, port authorities rushed to the area, but had not seen anything. Unable to believe our eyes, we captured footage of the UFOs reaching close range, almost 500 meters away from us! We attempted to capture all of the objects on video using our cell phone, but only three could be seen. The third can only barely be seen flashing.
In de "directe omgeving" van de aarde staan meer dan 100.000 Melkwegstelsels. Die vormen een gigantisch complex, hebben Amerikaanse wetenschappers ontdekt. Het is een zogeheten supercluster, dat de naam Laniakea heeft gekregen. Dat is Hawaïaans voor "immense hemel".
Het overkoepelende stelsel is enorm. Het meet 500 miljoen lichtjaar in doorsnee. Een lichtjaar is de afstand die het licht in 1 jaar aflegt, bijna 10 biljoen kilometer. Bij elkaar zijn de stelsels 100 miljoen miljard (een 1 met 17 nullen) keer zo zwaar als onze zon. Het was bekend dat de aarde in zo'n megastelsel staat, maar de omvang was nog niet duidelijk.
"We hebben eindelijk de grenzen vastgesteld van de supercluster die onze thuis is. Het is alsof je voor het eerst ontdekt dat je woonplaats deel uitmaakt van een veel groter land dat aan andere landen grenst'', verklaart hoofdonderzoeker R. Brent Tully. De studie staat in de nieuwste editie van het belangrijke wetenschapsblad Nature.
Het is niet bekend hoeveel superclusters er in het heelal zijn.

UFO mania: Recent crop circle predicts solar event on 9/9/14?
UFO mania: Recent crop circle predicts solar event on 9/9/14?
New amazing Crop Circles have appeared in:
Parkers Hill Plantation, nr Cherington, Gloucestershire, United Kingdom. Reported 27th July.
Green Street, Nr Avebury, Wiltshire, United Kingdom. Reported 29th July.
Roundway Hill, Nr Devizes, Wiltshire, United Kingdom. Reported 30th July.
Especially the circle near Roundway Hill in Wiltshire is a weird circle with lots of surprises. It shows the geocentric locations of planets, Mars, the Moon and the Sun in our solar system.
The geometric work in the circle seems to refer to an unexpected astronomical event on 9-9-14 (September 9, 2014).

In “United States of Secrets,” a two-part series airing May 13 & 20, FRONTLINE reveals the dramatic inside story of how the U.S. government came to monitor and collect the communications of millions of people around the world—and the lengths they went to trying to hide the massive surveillance program from the public.
Police are investigating after a human skull was found among donations to a charity store.
Medical examiners say the skull is from an adult who died within the last two years.
The cause of death is unknown, and medics don’t know if the skull is from a man or woman.
Goodwill store staff discovered the skull as they were sorting through donations to the outlet in Austin, Texas.
Austin police say they don’t believe foul play was involved, and think the skull may be from a private collection.
Detective Derek Israel said: “We think it was probably something that belonged to the person who donated it, and it was part of a collection or an anatomical model or something like that.
“It could have been something that was kept by someone who was a student of medicine, dentistry, any of those things.”
Goodwill has 31 stores in Austin and 40 donation centres, and has had other unusual gifts in the past.
A spokeswoman said: “We have gotten prosthetic limbs. We have gotten Rolex watches. We have gotten Krugerrands. Our donations run the gamut.” – Mirror
I’m ready to share something quite unnerving that just happened to me last Sunday. So, some background. I drive a ’98 Toyota Rav4 which has certainly seen better days, my grandfather was the one that used to drive the SUV before it was handed down to me. So, it got into his head that we should maybe give the Rav some love, give it a fresh coat of paint on the front and rear bumpers.
Here we are then, my grandpa just getting the finishing touches on the Rav while I just idly watch him work when something at the distance catches my attention ( I live in a closed neighborhood, my house being at the end of the street so any car that enter must turn right in front of the house ) another Rav4 identical to mine comes driving down the street, what a coincidence I think, it just so happens that when it passed in front of me I caught a glimpse of the driver, it was, well me, driving a Rav that was already painted; the driver just looked back at me, our gazes crossed, he didn’t give me a nod of acknowledgment or something, he just stared at me for a few seconds, made a u-turn and left.
I was left astounded to say the least, this guy, which I could swear looked just like me, driving the same car at me, just drove past my house, stared at me for a few seconds at leaved. I didn’t tell my grandpa of the other guy, seeing as how he didn’t even notice the car because he was to busy painting.
Do you guys have any idea as to what this may mean? Is he like a doppelganger or something, my mind playing me some sick joke? – Reddit.com
That Time Lloyds of London Insured The Loch Ness Monster
In 1971, Cutty Sark offered an award of one million pounds ($2.4 million) to anyone who could capture the Loch Ness Monster. But, the whiskey manufacturer began to get cold feet, so it asked Lloyds of London to underwrite the contest. The insurance company agreed, with the condition that it would get to keep Nessie.
To this day, nobody is certain why Cutty Sark came to believe that someone might actually reel in the mythical, Scottish sea creature. Still, this was the 1970s, when Nessie-mania was reaching a peak and scientific expeditions were searching the dark depths of the 22-square-mile, freshwater loch. (The late monster-hunter, Robert Rines, took an underwater photo deemed so convincing that scientists at Harvard and the Smithsonian Institution expressed serious interest.)
Perhaps that’s also why Lloyds of London initially turned down the request to accept Cutty Sark as a client. A spokesperson for the firm stated that, “The Risk is too great.”
But, after a barrage of news reports that the unflappable Lloyds had “chickened out,” the insurance company reversed its decision.
“Everybody was saying that our underwriters were refusing to insure and that got our backs up,” the spokesperson said a week later.
The contract between Lloyds and Cutty Sark stated:
“As far as this insurance is concerned, the Loch Ness Monster shall be deemed to be:
In excess of 20 feet in length.
Acceptable as the Loch Ness Monster to the curators of the Natural History Museum, London.
In the event of loss hereunder, the monster shall become the property of the underwriters hereon.”
Since Lloyds had no way to calculate the probability that Nessie would be captured, it charged an outrageous premium that far exceeded the reasonable probability of loss.
Still, Cutty Sark signed. And Lloyd’s made a nice profit, since the Loch Ness Monster was never caught. Or, so we’ve been led to believe – io9
Execution by Elephant: Ancient Capital Punishment in India
The death penalty is one of the oldest methods of criminal sentencing. Although different countries have had equally gruesome methods of inflicting the highest form of punishment, India had one of the most brutal methods of criminal torture: execution by elephant.
Designed to demonstrate to the people that even the awe-inspiring power of nature was under the iron grip of the emperor, execution by elephant — or gunga rao, as it’s called in India – became a choice method for capital punishment during the Middle Ages and continued well into the 19th century. Although the execution method was thought to have originated in ancient Rome, the practice of stomping the punished via elephant became popular in both western and Southeast Asia and in India. However, this method of execution declined as the British Empire grew in power.
Sources say that Hindu and Muslim leaders executed citizens for tax evasion, rebellion, and being enemy soldiers alike. Thieves and Mongol prisoners were also punished by death.
As for the elephants, they were often trained to “instantly crush [the offender] to atoms … but if it was desired to torture him, the elephant would break his limbs successively, as men are broken on the wheel,” observed Robert Kerr, a writer from the 19th century.
Crushing the victim, however, was not the only method of elephant-inflicted torture. According to François Bernier, a French traveler who witnessed such executions in the Mughal sultanate of Delhi, the elephants were also capable of slicing the prisoners to pieces “with pointed blades fitted to their tusks.”
Another traveler who visited Delhi in the year 1330, Ibn Mattuta, witnessed and recorded his account of the event, stating: “If the order was to cut him to pieces, the elephant would do so with his irons, and then throw the pieces among the assembled multitude. But if the order was to leave him, he would be left lying before the emperor, until the skin should be taken off, and stuffed with hay, and the flesh given to the dogs.” – weirdasianews
Firefighters were called in to rescue two people after their home was invaded by giant hornets.
The couple were forced to barricade themselves in their bedroom after a large nest, which was filled with hundreds of the enormous flying insects, fell through the ceiling from the attic above.
The terrified pair ended up calling the fire brigade and had to be rescued by ladder through their bedroom window.
The incident took place in the UK where this particular species of hornet, which is from Asia, has only recently started to appear.
Measuring up to 6cm in length and with a stinger 6mm long, these giant wasp-like creatures are responsible for killing dozens of people every year and have been gradually making their way westwards since hitching a ride to France in a shipment of pottery from China back in 2004.
Last year 1,600 people were injured and 41 were killed by the insects in China’s Shaanxi province with similar figures reported in other parts of the country as well as in Japan. – maidenhead-advertisor
The Daily Mail paper reported “A pilot and his co-pilot have spotted a mysterious orange and red glow over the Pacific Ocean. The strange lights were spotted south of the Russian peninsula Kamchatka during the flight of a Boeing 747-8 from Hong Kong to Anchorage, Alaska. ‘Last night over the Pacific Ocean, somewhere South of the Russian peninsula Kamchatka I experienced the creepiest thing so far in my flying career,’ he said.”
Researchers discovered an engraving in Gorham’s Cave in Gibraltar that appears to have been made by Neanderthals more than 39,000 years ago. It’s pretty incredible.
The Utah arm of the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) is analyzing video shot by an Ogden witness who captured multiple orbs “moving like a school of fish or birds” across the sky, according to testimony in Case 56393 from MUFON witness database.
The witness was outside watching the moon about 9 p.m. on May 15, 2014, when movement was noticed in the sky that first appeared to be a drone.
The witness uploaded one video with the MUFON report, which was filed on May 18, 2014. The video is currently being analyzed.

Ogden is a city in and the county seat of Weber County, population 82,825.
Utah State Director Erica Lukes is investigating. Utah has a current UFO Alert Rating of 5 with a low number of recent reports nationally. Utah had 4 UFO reports in August 2014 – the 38th highest reporting state – while California had 99 reports as the highest reporting state. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.
The UFO Alert Rating System is based on five levels – 1 through 5 – where states with 150 or more reports for the month are rated an Alert 1; states with 100 or more reports are rated an Alert 2; 25 reports or more for the month are rated an Alert 3; 13 or more reports are rated an Alert 4; and those states with less than 13 reports for the month are an Alert 5.
UFO researchers say UFO sightings are increasing in the state of Queensland in Australia. Recent sightings have included photos and video.
UFO Research Queensland President Sheryl Gottschall told the Brisbane Times there has been a spike in reports over the last few months. She says, “We get about 100 calls a year and across Australia all up the UFO research groups get up to 800. That’s just the reported sightings – a lot go unreported.”
Another representative from the Queensland UFO group agrees. In a radio interview with 4BC, Tino Pezzimenti says, “Only about 5% of reports or sightings actually get reported, so you can imagine. We get a couple hundred a year. That’s only probably 5% of people that actually find their way to reporting something to us.”

Pezzimenti says many of these are not just reports of lights in the sky. Some of the sightings come with photos or video.
The hosts of 4BC said they had heard many sightings are due to a large local event called the Royal Queensland Show, aka Ekka (referred to as “the exhibition” in the radio show). The event is Queensland’s largest annual event, attracting hundreds of thousands of guest from around the world. It includes farm animal, food, and strength competitions, among other events, and takes place in early August.
Pezzimenti admitted that many UFO reports are misidentifications. He cited a recent sighting in mid-July in which the police suggested the mysterious lights were actually due to the testing of the fairground lights in preparation for Ekka.
However, Pezzimenti says their organization is not quick to call everything a UFO. He explains, “To be a UFO it’s got to have to do something unusual or look unusual like this photograph, or it does a 90 degree turn, or it flies off faster than any jet we have ever heard and there’s not even a sonic boom.”
The photograph Pezzimenti refers to is a sighting he is particularly excited about. The photo was allegedly taken on Friday, May 23, 2014 in the Wooloowin area at 5:35 pm. It shows what appears to be a strange disk-shaped object in the sky.

Pezzimenti says the object does not appear to have engines or propellers. He says this kind of photographic evidence needs to be taken “pretty seriously.”
The image was posted on a Facebook page called Brisbane UFO Sightings, which was created recently for the founder of the page to post pictures of UFOs. Apparently, he or she captures them often. Other than the date, time, and location of the sighting, no other information is provided.
Other videos can be seen in the interview with 4BC and Pezzimenti, embedded in the Brisbane Times article.

The increase in sightings has lead to a local resident to begin holding skywatches. Kristy Buist, founder of the Paranormal Awareness Community, had her first skywatch scheduled for earlier this week.
Buist told the Brisbane Times she has had four sightings of her own. She described the first as, “platinum and sort of shaped like diamonds just casually floating across the sky”.
Now she says, “I do look for UFOs often. I look for them wherever I go.”
Brisbane Times says participants at the skywatch look for “‘unusual movement’ in the night sky, including ‘classic’ UFO moves such as bright lights travelling from one horizon to another in seconds or lights making sudden turns.”
Photos from the skywatch were posted on UFO Research Queensland’s Facebook page, but none of them include UFOs. However, as their Facebook page says, “Skywatching calls for a lot of patience and persistence.”
Both of which I am sure local researchers will continue to practice as they continue their quest for UFO evidence, which, incidentally, remains elusive despite the increased reports.
Wall, NJ – 3/19/2014 – unedited: I didn’t see the craft. I am trying to submit my story but this program is making fill in info about the craft. The Greys were already coming up my driveway with what appeared to be white flashlight like wands coming to the house. Amber, Green and blue lights started to pulse just outside my bedroom window as I looked out of it. The one closest Grey was not more than 10 feet outside my bedroom window. He stopped, looked directly at me with red glowing eyes. I could make out the outline of his head. I communicated telepathicly with it. As the lights kept changing, I told him that blue was cool. Blue was cool…Then all the other colors stopped and the lights in the driveway went all cool blue….I was getting communication without words in my brain. I just said to it, Please don’t hurt me and I will come outside to meet you if you want. (I know they can abduct you anytime if the really want to). My girlfriend saw the lights and everything. Got scared and hid under the covers in bed. I then got dressed, went outside cautiously to meet them, and they were gone. Poof! True event. Swear to god. I believe the message to me was that they will be back for me sometime soon for who knows what? I was scared s**t but was not afraid at the same time. If they want you, there is nothing you can do about it. – MUFON CMS
Volusia County — A 13-year-old girl is recovering after being bit by a shark on Sunday in New Smyrna Beach.
Beach Safety officials say the girl was swimming near the 2400 block of North Atlantic Avenue when she was bit on the calf causing a small puncture wound.
The girl was body surfing when the incident occurred, and was in what officials described as waist-deep water.
The shark was not seen by lifeguards, other swimmers in the area or beachgoers nearby.
According to Volusia County Beach Safety Ocean Rescue Public Information Officer Tamra Marris, this was the sixth shark bite this year. – MyNews13

The 37-year-old was given a zero chance of survival after he was born with the astonishing condition, but he has defied medical odds to become an inspirational public speaker.
Claudio suffers from various disabilities, including badly deformed legs, almost no use of his arms and hands and his neck folded back on itself.
Doctors had given up hope of his survival shortly after his birth and even told his mother, Maria Jose, to stop feeding him.
But this inspirational man, from Monte Santo, Brazil, has proven them all wrong by overcoming his extreme disadvantages to graduate from university as an accountant and become a public speaker.
He said: “Since I was a child I’ve always liked to keep myself busy and work – I don’t like to depend totally on other people.
“I do a bit of accounting, research for clients and consulting.
“I have learned to turn on the TV, pick up my cell phone, turn on the radio, use the internet, my computer – I do it all by myself.” Read more at Express
Some close viewers of Fox 2′s nightly newscast in St. Louis, Missouri noticed an unknown object quickly shoot through the sky on Monday, September 1.
During the broadcast, footage from the Fox 2 roof camera shows an active lightning storm resulting from the area’s severe weather. The station describes that “during that shot something flashes across the screen. The flying object is illuminated by flashes of lightning. In the blink of an eye it is gone.”
Viewer David Whitener posted a video clip to Facebook from the newscast showing the unknown object shooting through the sky. He posed the question, “What was that shooting across the screen did anyone else see that?” Some offered suggestions like meteors and alien spacecraft. One commenter chimed in, stating, “It is said that during thunder storms UFO sightings increase.”

FOX 2 producer Kevin Pope and reporter Andy Banker examined the footage in question. After reducing the playback speed of the video, they conclude that the UFO is a bird illuminated by the lightning.
What do you think? Does the “bird” suggestion explain the mysterious object seen in the video? Share your thoughts by posting a comment below or by posting on the Open Minds Facebook page.
SAUCER SHAPED CRAFT PHOTOGRAPHED OVER AUSTRALIA MAY 23, 2014 ……. WOOLOOWIN AUSTRALIA
A saucer-shaped object photographed at Wooloowin on Brisbane’s north side should be taken “pretty seriously.” The truth is out there – and maybe it is hovering over Queensland. here has been a spike in the number of reported UFO sightings across the state over recent months, according to president of UFO Research Queensland Sheryl Gottschall, with the Gold Coast being a real “hot spot.” “We’ve had people calling from all over Queensland,” Ms Gottschall said. “There was a sighting on the Gold Coast on Friday night, Cairns last week and there was another sighting in Childers. “We get about 100 calls a year and across Australia all up the UFO research groups get up to 800. That’s just the reported sightings – a lot go unreported.” One photograph reportedly taken over Wooloowin on May 23 shows a silver disc hovering in the sky. There is also a letter from police dated July 18 in response to a call to investigate “three bright white lights hovering low” over homes in Wooloowin. The police concluded the lights were “presumed to be the result of EKKA lighting tests” but were of “unknown origin.” Ms Gottschall, who claims to have seen five UFOs and experienced one extraterrestrial “close encounter” in her lifetime, says there has been an ever increasing interest in UFOs and extraterrestrial life, which has resulted in the formation of “skywatch” groups. On Monday night, Ms Gottschall will attend a skywatch at Kurwongbah, just west of Brisbane, organised by Kristy Buist, founder of the Paranormal Awareness Community. Ms Buist, a 35-year-old from Redcliffe, saw her first UFO aged 11, when a fleet of three flew over her primary school at Gunnedah, NSW. The flying objects were also seen by a teacher, who happens to be her step-father. Since then, Ms Buist has experienced three more “definite” sightings. “I do look for UFOs often. I look for them wherever I go,” she said. “There’s always ifs and buts, but I’ve had four definite sightings in my lifetime.” Ms Buist described the fleet of UFOs she first saw as silent and “platinum and sort of shaped like diamonds just casually floating across the sky.” KEN’S NOTE: The real photos below were taken in 2014.

Witness said: 26/08/14 – I was in Sardinia. I just arrived in a nice hotel, before coming back home. I was about to take a bath in the swimming pool, when I noticed several huge lights in the sky. I took my iPhone, and recorded them. After watching the video on my PC, I also noticed a strange dark triangular craft, hovering next to the lights. It was certainly monitoring them. When the lights disappeared, the craft accelerated and certainly followed them. I’m sure it was some sort of escort, as there’s obviously a link between that craft and these lights. It’s a landing.
The lights were super huge, almost stunning to the eye. They descended fairly quickly behind the mountain, getting lower and lower, and further and further. It means these are physical objects, and probably some type of motorized device. You may think — and I did too — that these are Chinese Lanterns, but if you reflect a bit you’ll understand that Chinese lanterns don’t behave like that, and absolutely don’t look like that, overall in broad daylight.
Witness said: Bright yellow light appeared suddenly in sky, hovered and then started moving slowly. I was on my break at a gas station at the corner of 14th Street and Spring Street, looking up into the sky towards the north. Bright yellow light suddenly appeared in the direction I was looking, just above the trees, about a half or mile away. Then I grabbed my camcorder started taping and object started moving. At first it was hovering in same spot for about 5 minutes then it started moving, downward, when I started recording. At first I thought it was the reflection on a plane but it didn’t move. I look at planes all the time since I work around the airport. It was not a plane, not a blimp, or a helicopter. I finally lost sight of it as it desended and was obscured by the trees.
Witness said: On this video you will see a Formation of what appears to be Energy U.F.O Balls of Light traveling overhead….As you can see on the video they appear to be high above the clouds.At first they seemed to Hover as the Clouds Pass underneath.I continue to film as i zoom in they seem to be emitting some kind of glowing energy.At some point they began to travel until out of sight…In my opinion these objects were clearly no aircraft or satellite..
Nubiërs aan de Nijl: In Noord-Afrika staan nog veel meer piramides
Nubiërs aan de Nijl: In Noord-Afrika staan nog veel meer piramides
Egypte is niet het enige Afrikaanse land waar piramides omhoogrijzen uit het zand. Sterker nog: in één klein stuk van de Soedanese woestijn staan meer piramides dan in heel Egypte. Tijdens de 25e Dynastie van Egypte (760 v.Chr. tot 656 v.Chr.) was Meroë, een historische stad in Soedan, de hoofdstad van het koninkrijk van Koesj, dat werd geregeerd door Nubische koningen die Egypte hadden veroverd.
Piramides van Meroë (David Stanley)
Iets wat in de geschiedenisboeken vaak over het hoofd wordt gezien is dat deze zwarte farao’s heersten over een rijk dat zich uitstrekte van de Middellandse Zee tot Khartoem. Meroë, genesteld aan de Nijl, bevatte een necropolis voor koninklijke begrafenissen. Net als in Egypte werden Nubische koningen en koninginnen begraven met goud, juwelen, aardewerk en soms zelfs huisdieren.

Sommige koningen werden gemummificeerd, terwijl anderen werden gecremeerd. Op elke graftombe werd een piramide van zandsteen gebouwd. Verspreid over drie steden zijn in Meroë in totaal 220 piramides gebouwd. Ze bleven grotendeels intact tot de jaren 1830, toen de Italiaanse schatjager Giuseppe Ferlini 40 piramides beschadigde. In de afgelopen jaren zijn enkele piramides gerestaureerd om reizigers een idee te geven hoe ze eruitzagen.
Vanwege de onrust in Soedan zijn er veiligheidsrisico’s voor reizen naar het Afrikaanse land. De politieke situatie is er niet stabiel en in verschillende regio’s zijn gewapende conflicten.

Campaign to clear the name of Devon witches hanged for dabbling in the occult
A campaign has been launched to clear the name of the last three witches hanged in England – who met their fate in Devon.
The infamous trio, knows as the ‘Bideford Witches’, were put to death in 1682 for supposedly dabbling in the occult.
Temperance Lloyd, Susannah Edwards and Mary Trembles became the last three people hanged in England for witchcraft.
But historians and MPs claim they were targeted because they were old and suffered dementia.
A new campaign to have them officially pardoned has been launched to mark the largest ever gathering of witches together.
The event, the Grand Witches Tea Party, will see hundreds gather at Rougemont Castle in Exeter, Devon – 322 years since they were hanged in August 1682.
Modern witch Jackie Juno, 51, hopes the campaign will persuade Exeter City Council to take them seriously and reconsider.
She said: “By getting them pardoned we are making a statement that this bigoted behaviour should not be tolerated nowadays.
“It would prove that humanity could change for the better. It would also be laying the women to rest in a way that resolves the mistakes of history.
“If you were unmarried or childless or sometimes simply owned a cat you were regarded with suspicion.”
Records show Lloyd was accused of “having discourse or familiarity” with the devil and “having used some magical art, sorcery or witchcraft”.
Edwards and Trembles, who both lived with her, were also arrested before all three were executed at Exeter Prison in Devon.
Historians say the women were convicted on hearsay evidence, which included one of them being accused of turning into a magpie.
Even the justices at the time did not believe they were guilty but were forced to respond to an angry mob that was baying for a hanging.
Last year author Christine Nash set up an online petition to call for their public pardon but despite support, which included Exeter MP Ben Bradshaw, it was unsuccessful. – Plymouthherald
An interesting development in the last few hours at the James Randi Educational Foundation (JREF): a short statement has been posted to their website under the title “Los Angeles Office Closed”, advising that the headquarters of the organisation is moving across the country to Virginia. Oh, and also as an aside (in a statement released at the end of a long weekend) that the President of the organisation, D.J. Grothe, “is no longer with the JREF”!
In order to achieve cost-savings and greater efficiency, the Los Angeles office of the JREF has closed effective September 1, 2014. All operations have been moved to Falls Church, Virginia.
DJ Grothe is no longer with the JREF. James Randi has taken over as acting President.
This restructuring is part of an enhanced educational agenda aimed at inspiring an investigative spirit in a new generation of critical thinkers by engaging children and their parents, as well as educators and the general public, in how to think about the many extraordinary claims we hear every day.
A funny thing happened while Tim Bennett weed-whacked on a Scottsville farm two weeks ago: a big black cat crossed his path.
It was a really big black cat.
“He was all black, had a round face and long, black tail,” said Bennett, a seasoned woodsman who runs a landscaping business near Scottsville.
Bennett is pretty sure the cat was a black cougar, the elusive cousin of the elusive mountain lion that has been reported in a variety of Virginia mountain counties but has yet to be proven to exist.
Cougar sightings are commonplace with the big cats having been reported everywhere from Lynchburg and Bath County on to Rockingham County. Cougars themselves, however, are not as commonplace as their sightings.
In fact, no mountain lions, catamounts, pumas, American panthers, painters or mountain cats — all the same species — are believed to be full-time residents of the Blue Ridge Mountains, according to wildlife officials.
But Bennett’s eyes — and the odd behavior of a mare in a field — told him something different.
“I was doing some weed-whacking along the stable fence and one of the horses was there with me. I was going along with the weed whacker and she all of a sudden went up on her hind legs and kicked her front legs out,” Bennett recalled. “When she came down, she ran toward the stable and stopped. I shut down the weed whacker because I thought that’s what upset her.”
It wasn’t.
Bennett said the horse stared down toward the pond and pawed the ground with her front feet, making a distressed noise.
“I walked along the fence line to see what she was looking at,” he said.
That’s when he saw the cat.
“I proceeded to walk toward it and the cat proceeded to walk away, down toward the pond and then into the hollow. It walked with its head low and its tail toward the ground,” Bennett said. “It wasn’t like the cat was afraid of me. It was like it just knew that what was walking toward it wasn’t something it was interested in.”
There are doubts about the existence of black-furred or melanistic cougars despite thousands of reports over a hundred years because no bodies have ever been recovered. The Eastern cougar has been declared extinct, although its relative, the Western cougar, is alive and well in the Rocky Mountains and points west.
The only photo known to exist of a black cougar was shot in the 1950s in the Southwest. That cougar had dark gray fur on its sides and back, but pale gray fur on its belly.
“There has never been a documented case of an all-black cougar and the ones you see on television are all either jaguars or leopards,” said Mike Fies, wildlife research biologist at the state Department of Game and Inland Fisheries. “The Eastern cougar is considered extinct, with the last one being confirmed around 1880. There are no known resident populations. I haven’t seen one in the 30 years I’ve been here, and that makes it hard to accept that there is a resident population.”
Just because it hasn’t been proved doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.
“We never say never about these things,” Fies said. “But we still have no evidence of their being in Virginia.”
Ed Creasy, on whose property Bennett saw the cat, believes.
“[Bennett] came to the house and he was kind of shaken. He said he saw a large cat with a black tail and a rounded face down by the pond,” Creasy recalled. “We found a footprint where it looked like the animal had walked around the pond.”
The former FBI agent did a quick preliminary investigation, making a plaster cast of a paw print.
“I hadn’t done a plaster cast in years and had to go to the store to get what I needed,” Creasy said. “When we got back to the pond, water had just started to seep into the print, which meant we had been there pretty close behind it. I dried the print lightly with some paper towel and made the cast.”
The cast is inconclusive, though what it shows closely resembles a cat print, with an apparent trefoil paw pad at the back end.
The idea of a cougar prowling the Blue Ridge foothills might be improbable, but it isn’t impossible. In 2011, a cougar was killed on the streets of Connecticut. The animal had walked for three years across six states only to meet its death.
According to the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection, DNA tests showed the cougar made its way east from South Dakota’s Black Hills, its image captured on trail cameras in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan’s Upper Peninsula and New York before the animal was struck and killed by a 2006 Hyundai Tucson outside Milford.
The cat’s death was not in vain, according to Science Daily. It taught researchers about cougar dispersals in which young male cats hit the road looking for mates. The dispersals from the West and Midwest can go far to the east and likely have occurred sporadically for many years.
That doesn’t mean that a lone male or female in a strange state will meet up with a lover and raise a family of resident cats.
“Neither males nor females will stop to establish a home range without the presence of possible mates. So, ultimately, for a new breeding population to start, a male and female who have dispersed separately from the West must randomly stumble upon each other in the 2 million square miles of habitat east of their range,” said officials from Mountainlion.org, an organization dedicated to preserving cougar populations.
“These random bets on exact location and timing, repeated over and over, represent the lion’s only chance for survival,” the publication states.
Sightings in the Midwest and East prior to 2000 commonly were attributed to rural myth, mistaken identity or the release or escape of lions once held as pets. Thanks to the killed cat in Connecticut, however, biologists say some of those sightings could have been dispersed males.
The nearest native pumas to Virginia are Florida panthers, which range from Florida into Alabama. There are believed to be only about 200 of them, although there also have been reports of cougar tracks and sightings in West Virginia and North Carolina.
Still, it’s unlikely cougars have filtered into the Blue Ridge, since no bodies, no photos and no feces have been found, Fies said. Regardless, he receives a lot of reports of puma sightings.
“That week, I had three reported sightings,” he said. “I’ve been in public meetings and asked how many people have seen a cougar and have almost everyone raise their hand. It just seems to me that if that many sightings were accurate, we’d see some evidence.”
Crozet-area residents have reported puma sightings for years, with a flurry around 2008.
“It’s been quiet recently, but for a while people were reporting them every few months,” said Mike Marshall, editor of the Crozet Gazette. “I think a lot of people don’t report them because they are afraid of being made fun of. I’m personally convinced they’re here.”
Fies said he has no doubt those who reported seeing cougars saw something; he just doubts they saw cougars.
“People misidentify them with a lot of things,” he said. “Bobcats are in the woods and from a distance, people easily mistake dogs for cougars. A lot of photos have been shown to be something else when they are reviewed.”
Fies said wildlife biologists doubt cougars would just disappear into the mountains without a trace. The Connecticut cat left tracks, trail photographs and scat across its path so that it was easy to follow once found.
“There’s no doubt that mountain lions are moving eastward. The Western cougar is definitely moving eastward,” he said. “Maybe there will be a time when some will colonize Virginia in the future.”
Bennett, however, said he believes that, be it Florida puma or Western cougar, there is at least one cat out there. – Roanoke
‘Finding Bigfoot’ Plodding Through Southwest Pennsylvania
The Bigfoot hunters starring on Animal Planet’s hit television series “Finding Bigfoot” went on a search for the mythical creature in southwestern Pennsylvania, an area that locals claim is a hot spot for supernatural activity and Bigfoot sightings.
On the popular program, which is now in its fifth season, four researchers travel to a different location in the United States and interview people who claim to have seen Bigfoot. Then the researchers set up re-enactments of the sighting to try to prove the existence of the mysterious creature.
The team consists of Bigfoot Field Research Organization (BFRO) President Matt Moneymaker, researchers James “Bobo” Fay and Cliff Barackman, and scientist Ranae Holland.
On Aug. 26, the producers of “Finding Bigfoot” explored Uniontown to find “a Sasquatch in these woods.”
According to the Herald-Standard, Bigfoot believers from as far as Ohio and West Virginia were among the more than 200 people who attended a town hall meeting where people shared stories about their interactions with the ape-like creature. The meeting was held at the State Theatre Center for the Arts in Uniontown.
“We knew we needed a venue that was capable of holding all these people,” said show producer Sean Mantooth. “It’s beautiful and centrally located in downtown Uniontown. It was a great location.”
Erica Miller, the executive director of the theater, mentioned that the theater received publicity from the show.
“We’ve had a lot of famous names and faces in here, but it’s not every day we film a TV show here,” she said, adding “It’s great exposure for the theater.”
“This is the best town hall meeting we’ve ever had – the sheer amount of stories we had – we literally did not have enough time before we had to start wrapping things up,” said Mantooth.
“We’ve gotten a lot of support from the local community. They’ve been very welcoming to the cast and crew and made it a really good episode for us,” he continued. – Latin Post
The National UFO Alert Rating System has been updated for September 2014, with California, Texas, New York, Michigan, Florida, Pennsylvania, and Ohio moving to a UFO Alert 3 as the highest reporting states during the month of August 2014, filed with the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON).
California was the leading high-reporting state in August with 99 cases, down from 104 July cases, 107 June cases, 102 May cases, 80 April cases, 103 March cases, 59 February cases, and 102 January cases. Those states in a UFO Alert 4 category with 13 or more reports include: Washington, Illinois, Missouri, North Carolina, Oregon, Colorado, Indiana, and New Jersey.
All other states move to a UFO Alert 5 category with lower numbers of UFO activity. The Watch States – with 10 or more cases – are Georgia, Nevada, Alabama, Arizona, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Connecticut and South Carolina.
MUFON released August statistics September 1, where the total number of reported UFO sightings is listed by state. The entire country was moved back to the lowest alert level – UFO Alert 5.
California takes the lead with 99 cases; Texas, 42; New York, 29; Michigan, 28; Florida, 26; Pennsylvania, 26; and Ohio, 25.
Those states with 13 or more reports, the next reporting tier level, are a UFO Alert 4 status: Washington, 23; Illinois, 22; Missouri, 20; North Carolina, 16; Oregon, 15; Colorado, 14; Indiana, 14; and New Jersey, 13.
Our Watch States this month are – with 10 reports or more: Georgia, 12; Nevada, 12; Alabama, 11; Arizona, 10; Maryland, 10; Massachusetts, 10; New Hampshire, 10; Connecticut, 10; and South Carolina, 10.
The sphere remains the most-reported UFO shape with 179 August cases; down from 216 July cases; 156 June cases; 129 May cases; 150 April cases, 131 March cases, 91 February cases; and 240 January cases. Other shape reports include: Circle, 94; Star-Like, 88; Triangle, 68; Disc; 68; Other, 63; Unknown, 59; Oval, 42; Fireball, 39; Cylinder, 24; Flash, 22; N/A, 20; Cigar, 16; Boomerang, 15; Blimp, 11; Cone, 11; Diamond, 11; Bullet-Missile, 8; Egg, 6; Teardrop, 5; Chevron, 2; Saturn-like, 2; and Cross, 1.
The object’s distance from the witness includes: Less than 100 feet, 112 cases; 101 to 500 feet, 113 cases; 501 feet to one mile, 189 cases; over one mile, 224 cases; unknown, 285; and no value stated, 25.
In addition, there were “28 landings, hoverings, or takeoffs reported and 1 entity observed.”
The most interesting UFO reports do not necessarily come from high reporting states – but those states with higher numbers do account for some of the most interesting evidence to study. While UFO sightings seem to pop up randomly around the country, this list is meant to offer a small insight into where Americans are filing reports.
Great Britain witnesses at Wigan reported watching two lights that dropped out of the sky and appeared to be scanning the ground around their home on two consecutive nights, according to testimony in Case 59507 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The lights were first seen about 2:15 a.m. on August 27, 2014, and they returned about the same time on August 28. The reporting witness was outside in her garden looking at the stars when the event began.
“I noticed how starry the night was,” the witness stated. “This was unusual because the sky is usually foggy looking/overcast and to my left – northwest – I saw what looked like an orange star. I didn’t think much of it and went in.”
About an hour later, the motion sensor of the witnesses’ CCTV system in the back garden came on and she stepped outside to investigate.
“I saw two lights that looked to me at first like glowing eyes. They were high up in the sky and swooped fast into the garden. The lights then looked dim. The movement of these was strange. It seemed as though they were scanning around the garden and then would shoot off again and return.”
The witness described the event.
“The direction path wasn’t the same coming from different directions, but always coming back over the garden and this sort of scanning movement. Throughout the activity the motion sensor of the cameras was on constantly and it went on for nearly two hours and then moved further back to another house and the same movement again. I’ve never seen anything like this and it really freaked me out. My son also witnessed it.”
The lights returned the following night at about the same time, but now in front of the home.
“The weather was bad on this night, raining heavily and very windy and the movement of it was more erratic. My son’s bedroom window was open near where this was and I ran to close it and these lights seemed to zero in then on the window, repeatedly backing up and launching at the window I’d just closed. I really thought this thing was trying to get in. On this occasion all the family witnessed it and we were all freaked out. Couldn’t understand what it was, but scared.”
The object again seemed like it was scanning the area.
“On this night it stayed for about an hour, flicking around the garden, cars, flying off and then coming back. My son opened a window but we couldn’t see anything with the naked eye, only the CCTV with infrared picked this activity up. Again the motion sensor of the cameras remained on constantly while this was around, returning to normal when it left.”
Wigan is a town in Greater Manchester, England. It stands on the River Douglas, 7.9 miles (13 km) southwest of Bolton, 10 miles (16 km) north of Warrington and 16 miles (25.7 km) west-northwest of Manchester, population 97,000.
MUFON International is investigating. The above quotes were edited for clarity.
A resident of Cinnamon Brow sent a local newspaper an image of a strange object in the skies over his home. He and his wife saw several of the objects at first, but only one was left by the time he got his camera.
Mike Mayoux told This is Cheshire that he and his wife spotted the objects on Sunday at around 6 pm over their home in Cinnamon Brow, which is on the east side of Warrington, England. Mayoux says, “My wife saw two of them at first but I saw five before going inside to get the camera.”
However, Mayoux was not able to catch all five objects on camera. “By the time I came out with the camera, I could only see one left which I photographed using a superzoom camera at full zoom,” Mayoux said.

He continued, “I have no idea of what it is, nor am I saying it is UFO, just some strange objects in the sky which appeared to be moving very slowly but were very high… There’s probably a fully rational explanation but I would be interested in knowing what they were.”
Technically, the object is unidentified and was flying, so it is a UFO. However, I think what Mayoux means is that he is not suggesting it is an extraterrestrial spacecraft.
This is Cheshire asked readers to post their suggestions as to what Mayoux may have captured in these images, extraterrestrial spacecraft or otherwise. Although no one seemed to be convinced there were aliens flying around over Cinnamon Brow, there were suggestions of celebration balloons and weather balloons.
One comment said, “It could be a weather balloon.. the higher they go the more distorted their shape becomes due to the low pressure.”
There was another very interesting suggestion made in another comment. It said, “It’s a Dummy shaped balloon that looks like it’s been released maybe by accident. I had them for my daughters christening. Google dummy shaped balloons and you can see they are the same thing.”
I thought that was an out of the ordinary possibility, so I did Google dummy-shaped balloons. BTW, a dummy is a British term for what we would call a baby’s pacifier here in the U.S.
I found some balloons that are shaped similarly to the objects in the photo. Although, the balloons seem to be smaller than the objects in the photos. However, Mayoux did say he zoomed in with his “superzoom” camera, so perhaps these object were smaller than they appear in his photos.
NASA has a UFO Sighting Protocol! IF UFO’S APPEAR…SHUT OFF THE CAMERAS A new footage recorded by Streetcap1 shows a disk-shaped UFO near the ISS on August 29, 2014.
Not surprisingly, NASA cut the live stream and changed the live feed from Cam 1 to Cam 2.
Astronauts working on the International Space Station spot something unexpected, flying objects near or hovering around the space station, the first thing they try to do is to take pictures of what they see, so they have photographic evidence!
Let’s make it clear, NASA has itself allegedly encountered many UFOs through the years, they have thousands of pictures, photographic evidence of the existence of UFOs, but those UFO pictures having never reached the general public.
NASA is funded by the government with all of our tax dollars. Actually owned, by the government, (nasa.gov) but as long as the Government keeps silent on UFOs, we will never see the NASA UFO Photo’s.
KEN’S NOTE: I DO REALISE THAT THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF SATELLITES AND SPACE DEBRIS FROM SOME GOVERMENTS BUT THE SMOKING GUN TO ME IS WHY NASA SHUTS OFF THE CAMERAS OR SHUTS DOWN THE LIVE FEED WHEN A UFO APPEARS. I WILL TAKE IT TO THE NEXT LEVEL. WHEN ALIEN CRAFT APPEAR. NASA SHOOTS THEMSELVES IN THE FOOT EVERY TIME THEY DO SOMETHING LIKE THIS. MAYBE NASA, IN ITS OWN WAY, IS DISCLOSING THE FACT THAT SOMETHING STRANGE IS GOING ON.

A “saucer-shaped object” photographed at Wooloowin on Brisbane’s north side should be taken “pretty seriously.” The truth is out there – and maybe it is hovering over Queensland.
There has been a spike in the number of reported UFO sightings across the state over recent months, according to president of UFO Research Queensland Sheryl Gottschall, with the Gold Coast being a real “hot spot.”
“There was a sighting on the Gold Coast on Friday night, Cairns last week and there was another sighting in Childers. “We get about 100 calls a year and across Australia all up the UFO research groups get up to 800. That’s just the reported sightings – a lot go unreported.”
One photograph reportedly taken over Wooloowin on May 23 shows a silver disc hovering in the sky.
Time Travel Simulation Resolves “Grandfather Paradox”
On June 28, 2009, the world-famous physicist Stephen Hawking threw a party at the University of Cambridge, complete with balloons, hors d'oeuvres and iced champagne. Everyone was invited but no one showed up. Hawking had expected as much, because he only sent out invitations after his party had concluded. It was, he said, "a welcome reception for future time travelers," a tongue-in-cheek experiment to reinforce his "1992 conjecture that travel into the past is effectively impossible.
But Hawking may be on the wrong side of history. Recent experiments offer tentative support for time travel's feasibility—at least from a mathematical perspective. The study cuts to the core of our understanding of the universe, and the resolution of the possibility of time travel, far from being a topic worthy only of science fiction, would have profound implications for fundamental physics as well as for practical applications such as quantum cryptography and computing.
Closed timelike curves The source of time travel speculation lies in the fact that our best physical theories seem to contain no prohibitions on traveling backward through time. The feat should be possible based on Einstein's theory of general relativity, which describes gravity as the warping of spacetime by energy and matter. An extremely powerful gravitational field, such as that produced by a spinning black hole, could in principle profoundly warp the fabric of existence so that spacetime bends back on itself. This would create a "closed timelike curve," or CTC, a loop that could be traversed to travel back in time.
Hawking and many other physicists find CTCs abhorrent, because any macroscopic object traveling through one would inevitably create paradoxeswhere cause and effect break down. In a model proposed by the theorist David Deutsch in 1991, however, the paradoxes created by CTCs could be avoided at the quantum scale because of the behavior of fundamental particles, which follow only the fuzzy rules of probability rather than strict determinism. "It's intriguing that you've got general relativity predicting these paradoxes, but then you consider them in quantum mechanical terms and the paradoxes go away," says University of Queensland physicist Tim Ralph. "It makes you wonder whether this is important in terms of formulating a theory that unifies general relativity with quantum mechanics."
Experimenting with a curve Recently Ralph and his PhD student Martin Ringbauer led a team that experimentally simulated Deutsch's model of CTCs for the very first time, testing and confirming many aspects of the two-decades-old theory. Their findings are published in Nature Communications. Much of their simulation revolved around investigating how Deutsch's model deals with the “grandfather paradox,” a hypothetical scenario in which someone uses a CTC to travel back through time to murder her own grandfather, thus preventing her own later birth. (Scientific American is part of Nature Publishing Group.)
Deutsch's quantum solution to the grandfather paradox works something like this:
Instead of a human being traversing a CTC to kill her ancestor, imagine that a fundamental particle goes back in time to flip a switch on the particle-generating machine that created it. If the particle flips the switch, the machine emits a particle—the particle—back into the CTC; if the switch isn't flipped, the machine emits nothing. In this scenario there is no a priorideterministic certainty to the particle's emission, only a distribution of probabilities. Deutsch's insight was to postulate self-consistency in the quantum realm, to insist that any particle entering one end of a CTC must emerge at the other end with identical properties. Therefore, a particle emitted by the machine with a probability of one half would enter the CTC and come out the other end to flip the switch with a probability of one half, imbuing itself at birth with a probability of one half of going back to flip the switch. If the particle were a person, she would be born with a one-half probability of killing her grandfather, giving her grandfather a one-half probability of escaping death at her hands—good enough in probabilistic terms to close the causative loop and escape the paradox.Strange though it may be, this solution is in keeping with the known laws of quantum mechanics.
In their new simulation Ralph, Ringbauer and their colleagues studied Deutsch's model using interactions between pairs of polarized photons within a quantum system that they argue is mathematically equivalent to a single photon traversing a CTC. "We encode their polarization so that the second one acts as kind of a past incarnation of the first,” Ringbauer says. “So instead of sending a person through a time loop, they created a stunt double of the person and ran him through a time-loop simulator to see if the doppelganger emerging from a CTC exactly resembled the original person as he was in that moment in the past.
By measuring the polarization states of the second photon after its interaction with the first, across multiple trials the team successfully demonstrated Deutsch's self-consistency in action. "The state we got at our output, the second photon at the simulated exit of the CTC, was the same as that of our input, the first encoded photon at the CTC entrance," Ralph says. "Of course, we're not really sending anything back in time but [the simulation] allows us to study weird evolutions normally not allowed in quantum mechanics."
Those "weird evolutions" enabled by a CTC, Ringbauer notes, would have remarkable practical applications, such as breaking quantum-based cryptography through the cloning of the quantum states of fundamental particles. "If you can clone quantum states,” he says, “you can violate the Heisenberg uncertainty principle,” which comes in handy in quantum cryptography because the principle forbids simultaneously accurate measurements of certain kinds of paired variables, such as position and momentum. "But if you clone that system, you can measure one quantity in the first and the other quantity in the second, allowing you to decrypt an encoded message."
"In the presence of CTCs, quantum mechanics allows one to perform very powerful information-processing tasks, much more than we believe classical or even normal quantum computers could do," says Todd Brun, a physicist at the University of Southern California who was not involved with the team's experiment. "If the Deutsch model is correct, then this experiment faithfully simulates what could be done with an actual CTC. But this experiment cannot test the Deutsch model itself; that could only be done with access to an actual CTC."
Alternative reasoning Deutsch's model isn’t the only one around, however. In 2009 Seth Lloyd, a theorist at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, proposed an alternative, less radical model of CTCs that resolves the grandfather paradox using quantum teleportation and a technique called post-selection, rather than Deutsch's quantum self-consistency. With Canadian collaborators, Lloyd went on to perform successful laboratory simulations of his model in 2011. "Deutsch's theory has a weird effect of destroying correlations," Lloyd says. "That is, a time traveler who emerges from a Deutschian CTC enters a universe that has nothing to do with the one she exited in the future. By contrast, post-selected CTCs preserve correlations, so that the time traveler returns to the same universe that she remembers in the past."
This property of Lloyd's model would make CTCs much less powerful for information processing, although still far superior to what computers could achieve in typical regions of spacetime. "The classes of problems our CTCs could help solve are roughly equivalent to finding needles in haystacks," Lloyd says. "But a computer in a Deutschian CTC could solve why haystacks exist in the first place.”
Lloyd, though, readily admits the speculative nature of CTCs. “I have no idea which model is really right. Probably both of them are wrong,” he says. Of course, he adds, the other possibility is that Hawking is correct, “that CTCs simply don't and cannot exist." Time-travel party planners should save the champagne for themselves—their hoped-for future guests seem unlikely to arrive.
On this week's show: Explore 25 years of UFO sightings in Canada with long-time investigator Chris Rutkowski. He and his colleagues have accumulated a huge archive containing some 15,000 UFO cases in Canada. The new survey covers the years 1989 through 2013. When you check the report at his Ufology Research site, you'll notice that the number of sightings increased in 2012 before settling down to a somewhat lower, but still historically high, level in 2013. Says his bio: "Chris Rutkowski, BSc, MEd, is a Canadian science writer and educator, with a background in astronomy but with a passion for teaching science concepts to children and adults. Since the mid-1970s, he also has been studying reports of UFOs and writing about his investigations and research."
Recently, a list of rocket booster and satellite re-entries was generated by a very diligent space fan, Ted Molczan. He had previously identified the "Giant Yukon UFO" as the re-entry of some space junk that had occurred about the same time as the observations of that infamous UFO. I and others have expressed our reservations that all of the 30+ observations were a re-entering spacecraft, but many skeptics are completely convinced. But Molczan took it upon himself to go one better. He generated a list of re-entries that would have been visible to the naked eye, under the assumption that these re-entries would explain many UFO reports. It's a fascinating list, and an excellent body of work that must have taken him quite a while. I recommend that UFO buffs take a good look at it:
Since we recently completed the 25-year study of UFO reports in Canada, I realized this would make an interesting comparison with known observational data. Specifically, do the re-entries listed by Molczan during the last 25 years correspond to UFOs reported in Canada during that time
And the answer is: yes
Yes, there were 14 calculated re-entries on the list that would have been visible in Canada. There were 53 UFO reports that matched these re-entries. However, nearly all of these cases were already considered to have explanations or probable explanations by the UFO investigators themselves. And most were considered to have been bolides or re-entries, anyway.
But Molczan's work shows that UFO investigators are on the right track when it comes to trying to identify UFOs reported to them.
How many more UFO sightings can be matched to known spacecraft re-entries.
Here's my analyses of the list of re-entries:
A Comparison of UFO Sighting Reports Between 1989 and 2013 with the list of Visually Observed Natural Re-Entries of Earth Satellites compiled by Ted Molczan (2014)
One of the common explanations for reported UFOs is that of misidentified satellite or rocket booster re-entries. UFO investigators often check UFO sighting reports against lists of satellite observations as a matter of course. Skeptics have suggested that many “unexplained” UFO reports are unrecognized spacecraft re-entries, including some of the more well-known and heralded unexplained UFO cases.
Recently, a list of visually observed re-entries was generated by an expert on such things in the course of an explanation for one particular reported unexplained UFO case: the giant “mothership” seen by dozens of witnesses in the Yukon Territory on December 11, 1996. The case has been the subject of intense investigation and considerable debate, but UFO proponents insisting the observed object was mysterious, but skeptics are adamant it was simply a re-entry of a rocket booster.
The list is quite interesting because it allows a comparison of known re-entry data with UFO data from the 25-year period of study of the Canadian UFO Survey. Out of 14 re-entries on the list noted as being observable in Canada during the past 25 years, four did not generate any UFO reports at all. There were 53 UFO reports that matched times of re-entries, all but three of which were either explained, had insufficient info or were thought to have possible explanations (and noted by the UFO reporting organizations as bolides or re-entries).
In other words, ufologists were able either to identify the re-entries as what they were or did not consider them UFOs in 50 out of 53 reports. This can be interpreted to show that UFO investigators are generally able to differentiate misidentified UFOs in at least 94 per cent of cases known to be spacecraft re-entries. Ardent skeptics may not be the only ones capable of explaining UFO sightings.
The one other case that is of some debate is Case 4, where a “Giant UFO” was described by dozens of witnesses located post hoc by a UFO investigator after some months had passed. The case was therefore not included in the Canadian UFO Survey for that year. Forensic historical UFO research has shown that these sightings may be related to the re-entry event that night, although witnesses of the UFOs that night described objects with structure and discrete form, lasting a significant length of time. In fact, two witnesses described large circular objects passing directly overhead, and two witnesses separated by only a few miles described radically different angular views of the apparently same object, something impossible if the observed object was actually a spacecraft re-entry almost 150 miles up in the atmosphere. (Unless, of course, the witnesses were lying or badly mistaken.)
Also, one only has to look at the descriptions of other misidentified re-entries in the list to see that witnesses in most cases used terms such as “fireball,” and “ball of light trailing sparks,” “tail on fire,” “comet-like,” “airplane on fire” and so forth. The Yukon case involved multiple independent witnesses who described large objects with a shape and form, not just strings of lights that could be a fragmenting re-entry.
Also, debunkers note that UFO investigators investigate UFO cases in a linear progression of steps, with “Step One: Assume the testimony is reliable.” They note that eyewitness testimony is in fact usually unreliable, so that judging the worthiness of a UFO report on witness testimony is inappropriate. However, as we have seen in this brief study, witness testimony was considerably reliable in explaining known fireball cases reported as UFOs, investigated and classified by UFO investigators themselves.
In summary, the excellent work by Molczak in compiling a list of spacecraft re-entries that might explain some UFO cases is admirable. However, UFO investigators without the list were generally able to assess the validity of UFO reports shown later to match the re-entries. The one standout case was that of the Yukon case of 1996, which is still debated among ufologists and debunkers.
It is recommended that all ufologists familiarize or reacquaint themselves with the appearance of terrestrial spacecraft re-entries, and ensure the possibility of such an event is considered when evaluating UFO report
Case 1:
1989 Nov 16 03:07UT
1985-050A 15833 Russia Cosmos 1662 Visible from southern Manitoba
1989 11 15 1900 Chibougamau PQ NL fireball NRC I N89/75: 15 diff. reports of lights moving in sky, "fireworks"
1989 11 15 1900 Val D'Or PQ NL fireball NRC I N89/75: light moving, like "fireworks"
1989 11 15 2105 Winnipeg MB ND fireball UFOROM P ball of light trailing "welding sparks", seen ove wide area
1989 11 15 2100 Oakville MB ND fireball NRC P N89/76: long "tail on fire" moving slowly
There were four reports filed that seem to coincide with the date of this event. Only two were from Manitoba, and both were described as fireballs or bolides with long tails, fragmenting as they flew. One was reported to the National Research Council, while the other was reported to Ufology Research directly. Curiously, the other two possible matches were from Quebec, two hours earlier than the re-entry, but were also described in terms of a fragmenting fireball. In fact, the NRC report notes that it received 15 reports of observations – many more than Manitoba. Given this coincidence, it is possible the re-entry calculations were in error with regards the extent of observable locations. Two of the reports were classified as “Insufficient Information,” likely because the NRC file was incomplete, and two were classified as “Probable Explanation.
Case 2
1990 Aug 24 02:41U
1990-075B 20766 Russia Cosmos 2096
Colorado, Nebraska, Wyoming, South Dakota, North Dakota, Minnesota
1990 8 23 2140 Portage la Prairie MB nl 300 multi 2 ps 5 8 UFOROM u pilots saw lights on parallel course; no a/c in area
One UFO report was found matching the re-entry perfectly. It was classified as Unknown because the witness was a reliable observer. However, the witness only reported “lights,” so no structured object was described.
1996 4 14 0300 Nouvelle PQ NL yellow cigar SOS OVNI U object w/4 large lights; 'big as a trailer'
1996 4 14 0311 Port-Melnier PQ NL SOS OVNI I pilot reported object flying E-W; Transport Canada log
1996 4 14 0312 Caplan PQ NL yellow ps SOS OVNI P "airplane in flames"
1996 4 14 0315 Caplan PQ C1 round SOS OVNI I obj. stopped over road; then took off; within 100 feet
These four reports appear congruent with the re-entry event. Two had insufficient information, and one was listed as “Probable Explanation”because of the description “airplane in flames” which is a common description of a fireball. The report listed as “Unknown” is curious because it has descriptors unlike a re-entry. The sighting at 0315 hours local was noted as a “Close Encounter,” yet in time and location matches the re-entry.
Case 4:
1996 Aug 20 00:47UT
1996-010D 23797 Russia Raduga 33r2
New Brunswick: St. John - glowing near perigee, day prior to fall from orbit
No sightings reported during this time period.
Although the Molczan list suggested this re-entry would be observable over the Maritime provinces, no UFO sightings were reported.
Case 5:
1996 Dec 12 04:27UT
1996-069B 24671 Russia Cosmos 2335
Alaska: Anchorage, pilots all over the state; Yukon: Fox Lake, Carmacks, Pelly Crossing, Mayo
No sightings reported during this time period.
Similar to Case 2, although the Molczak list notes widespread observations. No one reported seeing any UFOs at the time, even though there was at least one news report about the event. However, this case is the noted “Giant UFO in the Yukon” for which there have been found numerous witnesses long after the fact; this sighting was therefore not included in the 1996 Canadian UFO Survey.
Case 6:
1997 Nov 15 05:09UT
1997-070C 25047 Russia Kupon
British Columbia, Oregon and Washington
1997 11 14 2109 Deep Cove BC NL fireball UFOBC E tracks of glowing green/white objs. moving W-E; Russian booster re-entry
There was only one report of a UFO, at it exactly matches this re-entry. It was easily identified as such and classified as “Explained.”
2001 08 12 0035 Halifax NS NL white fireball 3 5 NUFORC P obj. w/tail "like a Navy flare"
2001 08 12 0015 Edmonton AB NL irregular 3 5 AUFOSG P 3 dim parallel streaks like shooting stars, seen briefly
This is an interesting event, since there are eight possible matches with this re-entry. Seven reports came from eastern Canada and the Maritimes, but only four are good matches with the re-entry, and two are possible matches. The report from Edmonton is unlikely to have been related. Several witnesses accurately described fireballs with long tails. All of these UFO reports were classified as “Explained” or “Probably Explained."
Case 9:
2001 Sep 06 10:50UT
1975-076B 8128 Russia Cosmos 756

The two reports around 2100 hours on January 31 could match this re-entry. One was suspected to be a re-entry, while the other did not have sufficient information for evaluation at the time
Case 11:
2002 Nov 28 14:13UT
2002-053B 27558 Russia Astra

None of these reports received that night seem congruent with the re-entry listed. However, MIAC recorded a bright fireball a few hours earlier; perhaps this was a fragment? None of these UFO reports were classified as Unknowns.

This was obviously a well-witnessed re-entry event. There were 22 reports from that area on that date, with 19 apparently related. The DD report at 1100 is clearly unrelated, for example. It is interesting to see that the time of observation varied considerably, from 2145 to 2300 CT. Most reported times do generally agree with the actual time of re-entry. Also, in all but one case, the report was recognized as a fireball and/or re-entry and given a classification of “Explained.” The single exception was the report from Windsor in which witnesses reported seeing a fireball, but then also saw 3 small objects after the original event, leading to an “Unexplained” evaluation of the report.

Uitbarsting supervulkaan Yellowstone zou VS bedekken met meter dikke laag as
Uitbarsting supervulkaan Yellowstone zou VS bedekken met meter dikke laag as
Wetenschapper Larry Mastin van de Amerikaanse geologische dienst USGS schrijft in een artikel in het tijdschrift Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems dat het grootste gedeelte van de Verenigde Staten in het geval van een uitbarsting van de supervulkaan onder Yellowstone National Park bedekt zou worden met een meter dikke laag as.
Mastin en zijn collega’s hebben aan de hand van computermodellen berekend wat de effecten zullen zijn van een eventuele aswolk die door de supervulkaan zou worden geproduceerd. Bij een superuitbarsting zou bijna 400 kubieke kilometer materiaal worden uitgestoten, waardoor elektronische communicatie en het vliegverkeer onmogelijk worden. Het klimaat van Noord-Amerika zou als gevolg van de uitbarsting ook drastisch veranderen.
De supervulkaan onder Yellowstone heeft tenminste drie keer van dit soort uitbarstingen voortgebracht – te weten 2,1 miljoen jaar geleden, 1,3 miljoen jaar geleden en 640.000 jaar geleden. Mastin zei dat steden in de buurt van de supervulkaan na een uitbarsting zouden worden bedekt met een meter dikke laag as.
Van New York tot Los Angeles zou men last hebben van de aswolk, maar als gevolg van de schade in het binnenland zou het voor beide kusten moeilijk, zo niet onmogelijk zijn om met elkaar te communiceren.
Zelfs kleine hoeveelheden as zouden voor grote problemen zorgen: voertuigen hebben minder grip op de wegen, er doen zich veel kortsluitingen voor, het riool raakt verstopt en oogsten mislukken.
Door de kracht van een dergelijke uitbarsting en de samenstelling van het uitgestoten materiaal, zou de aswolk krachtiger zijn dan de overheersende windrichting. Dit kan volgens Mastin verklaren waarom aanzienlijke hoeveelheden as tijdens eerdere uitbarstingen van Yellowstone de westkust hebben bereikt, terwijl de wind overwegend van west naar oost waait.
I heard the Coast to Coast AM program last night about Cryptids. I heard some talk about Wampus cats. Well I grew up in west central GA right on the GA/AL line. We lived out in the country and had a swamp down behind our house. I had a dog named Silver Chief. When he was a puppy I was a baby. We grew up together. I had graduated high school when he died. Anyway that dog was not afraid of anything man or beast. We had been having some chickens killed at night & thought it might be a fox or something. One night I heard the chicken hollering so I grabbed a flashlight and a .22 rifle and ran to the chicken house. It was dark but I saw some big and white looking jump over the chicken wire fence. It was 7 ft high. I went in and there were six dead chickens.
It was not long after that on another night I heard my dog barking. I could tell by his bark he had something treed. All of a sudden he screamed and ran back to the house. He had never run from anything. My brother got the .22 and walked up into the woods. He was walking around and heard claws scratching on tree bark. He looked up right into the eyes of what we called a Wampus Cat. It was getting ready to pounce on him. My brother who was an excellent hunter just threw the rifle barrel up without taking time to aim and shot the cat right through the head.
He brought the cat home and I had never seen anything like it. It was solid yellow/white colored. Had long 3 or 4 inch fur, and a tail about 4 or 5 inches long. Even with the short tail he was 3 feet long from nose to tail. We skinned him, salted his skin and stretched it on the barn door.
I remember that we used to hear it screaming in the swamp at night. Sometimes it sounded like a woman screaming and sometimes it sounded like a baby crying.
I have never seen anything like it before or since. It had huge teeth that had grooves in the gums and lips on the opposite of the teeth. It had huge feet.
Here is a cartoon drawing (above) I did of it several years ago. Most people don’t believe we actually killed it till they saw it’s hide on the barn door. – PGD
I wrote you back in the winter about a strange light I saw move from about a half mile away to right in front of me in like two seconds flat in Cullman, Alabama. Well I watch the sky often late at night and see lots of strange things but this different. My brother Joey, his wife and 8 year old daughter were in Cullman two weeks ago late at night. They were looking for houses to rent in the area and by the time they got on the road to go back to Birmingham it was about 10:00pm. My brother his wife and daughter swear by this story I’m about to tell you and my brother is in the Army, his wife was in the Army. I got two frantic phone calls and a text each from them to call them asap. My brother said he looked over in to the woods they were passing and saw green laser beam lights going in all direction, so they pulled over and turned their lights off. Within two minutes they saw four human looking figures come out of the woods. They couldn’t make out their features but it scared my niece. All of a sudden they see headlights from another car and as they watched the figures disappeared on the right and appeared on their left close to the car. My brother picked up his gun but got the hell out of there. They said it took two hours to calm my niece down..they believed it was kids until they saw them vanish and then reappear on the other side of the road. I always see things in the sky here but my brother never believed me until he and his family saw this. His wife is in denial about what she saw but I talked to her that night and she was scared. My niece is very animated about what she saw. She wouldn’t go down the road it happened on with me in the day time. I had to tell you what happened, it was to weird. Are there any other sightings you know of in this area? Thanks for everything. JSG
Ghosts & the Supernatural – HPI Reptilianologists headed to Grass Valley to investigate some out of the ordinary claims.A woman says that she witnessed her neighbor morph from a human being to a reptilian. Note: This later became her boyfriend and not her neighbor, the story changed. Now that his identity was exposed, he informed his reptilian colleagues. It so happens his colleagues live in the same neighborhood.
reptile shapeshifters humans 1 The client discovered she lives in a community of Reptilians. The Reptilians now dress in black and in the middle of the night, they gas her room, placing the client into a sleeping slumber. They remove something from her body on a nightly basis. She even has a photograph of an incision on her back. She discovered a strange gas pipeline that goes into her bedroom. It will be the mission of the HPI Reptilianologists to discover what exactly this pipeline is. We will conduct surveillance on the home and the property to see if there are strange men in black creeping around her home.
In The Biggest Secret (1999), Icke introduced the idea of the “Reptoid Hypothesis.” He identifies the Brotherhood as originating from reptilians from the constellation Draco, who walk on two legs and appear human, and who live in tunnels and caverns inside the earth. They are the same race of gods known as the Anunnaki in the Babylonian creation myth, Enûma Eliš. Tyson Lewis of Montclair State University and Richard Kahn of the University of North Dakota write that Icke has taken his “ancient astronaut” narrative from the Israeli-American writer, Zecharia Sitchin. Icke’s idea of “inner-earth reptilians” is also not new, though Barkun writes that Icke has done more than most to expand it. Read more at Costa Rican Times
CLOSE ENCOUNTER WITH A UFO TRIANGLE OVER WISCONSIN AUGUST 22, 2014 ….. DODGEVILLE WISCONSIN
When driving on 151 from Madison to Platteville, WI, a triangular UFO was witnessed. I was alone in the car. It was foggy that night with a heavy overcast. Visibility limited to 1/2 mile in the valleys. When about 5 miles outside of Dodgeville, lights were observed about 1 o’clock in front of the car. The craft was large. It was very eerie also. There were three lights on the undercarriage of it. No light was seen in the center of the craft. The craft was jet black. It was a 100 feet or more in subtended length. A point of the triangle faced the car as it approached the craft hovering about 50 feet above the ground, 150 feet off the side of the road. The craft then rotated and started to follow the car on the side of the highway. The craft stayed with the vehicle for about 10 seconds until a hill got in between the craft and the car. Of course I started to freak out when this started occurring. I guess it’s notable that this wasn’t the first time I’ve seen a triangular craft, and not the first time witnessing one when driving on the highway. I guess it’s also notable that all the sightings so far have been equally scary. I started kind of crying, partially in anger, partially in fear, as it started to follow me. It was really scary. The hair definitely stood up on the back of my neck, and I felt a really hollow fear; I guess trepidation mixed with anger is the best explanation. When the car passed the other side of the hill about 30 seconds later I had sped up to 100/110 mph, and the craft was not there. I checked the time, and of course no time was lost. Nothing special about the sighting, but I guess I thought it was worth reporting.
Witnesses observed a UFO over Melbourne, Australia on the night of Sunday, August 31.
This object hovered in the sky over the southeast Melbourne suburb of Carnegie for more than an hour, according to those who observed the mysterious craft. It flashed multi-colored lights, which included red, green, and blue, “in different flickering patterns.”
The UFO was reportedly seen by multiple witnesses, including Toni Koromilas who recorded video of the object. Another witness, Ami Hasson, also captured video of the UFO. Hasson says he watched the craft hover in the sky for a lengthy two-and-a-half hours. He also describes, “It was moving around in different directions . . . It looked like a ball from a distance but once I went out to film it and zoomed in I was amazed by it.”

But according to the Herald Sun, Perry Vlahos from the Astronomical Society of Victoria believes he knows what the unidentified object is. “A few weeks ago I was driving over Carnegie and I saw something hanging in the sky,” he explained. “If we’re referring to the same thing it’s just a gyrocopter that someone is flying and outfitted with LED lights to make it a little more impressive.”
This “gyrocopter,” or quadcopter identification is further supported by Hasson’s own description. “It looked like it had a dark square main body with no lights on it but with around 4-6 colourful arms, reminded me of an octopus,” he explained.
Here is an example of a popular quadcopter in flight at night for reference:
Although the behavior and appearance of this UFO is consistent with a quadcopter, Hasson points out, “Many people can think many things . . . I think that we had visitors . . .”
According to the Herald Sun, Melbourne gets an average of one UFO sighting per week.
(N.Morgan) A triangular shaped UFO was captured from La Crosse Wisconsin. The witness said there was an odd humming, a humming that was so intense, you could feel it in your chest. A deep vibration, she claimed. These are some of the most clear shots of UFOs I’ve seen and I think they are really great captures.
Is de Grote Sfinx van Egypte duizenden jaren ouder dan gedacht?
Is de Grote Sfinx van Egypte duizenden jaren ouder dan gedacht
Begin jaren negentig kondigde geoloog dr. Robert M. Schoch van de Universiteit van Boston aan dat de Sfinx mogelijk dateert van 5000 of 7000 voor Christus en daarmee ouder is dan de bekende Egyptische dynastieën.
“In 1990 reisde ik af naar Egypte om de Grote Sfinx vanuit een puur geologisch oogpunt te bestuderen,” aldus Schoch op zijn website. “Ik nam aan dat de egyptologen het bij het juiste eind hadden, maar kwam al snel tot de ontdekking dat het geologsiche bewijs niet overeenkwam met wat de egyptologen zeiden.”
Egyptologen en historici nemen aan dat de Sfinx, die uit de lokale rotsbodem is gehouwen, is gebouwd toen farao Chefren (of Khafra) aan de macht was. Met de bouw zou rond 2500 voor Christus zijn begonnen.
Schoch concludeerde dat de zware erosie waar het bouwwerk aan onderhevig is geweest alleen kan zijn veroorzaakt door regenval of stromend water. “De Sfinx bevindt zich aan de rand van de Sahara en het gebied is de afgelopen 5000 jaar erg droog geweest,” zei hij.
In de buurt van de Sfinx trof Schoch een aantal andere bouwwerken aan die stammen uit de tijd van het Oude Koninkrijk. De bouwwerken vertoonden duidelijke tekenen van wind- en zanderosie, die anders zijn dan bij watererosie.
Hij concludeerde dat de Sfinx dateert uit 5000 tot 9000 voor Christus, toen in het gebied veel meer neerslag viel. Bij nadere inspectie ontdekte Schoch dat farao Khafre de Sfinx had opgeknapt toen het bouwwerk al duizenden jaren oud was. Door de tijd heen is het uiterlijk van de Sfinx mogelijk meerdere keren veranderd.
“Het is voor mij duidelijk dat het huidige hoofd niet het oorspronkelijke hoofd is,” legde Schoch uit. “Het oorspronkelijke hoofd moet zwaar geërodeerd zijn. In de tijd van de dynastieën kreeg het zijn huidige vorm.”
Hij vermoedt dat de Sfinx van oorsprong geen sfinx, maar een leeuw is geweest. Deze bevindingen komen voor veel wetenschappers, historici en egyptologen als een schok, omdat zij beweren dat er geen bewijs is voor een beschaving in Egypte die zo lang geleden al een Sfinx kon bouwen.
