UFO mania: The Great Smithsonian Cover-Up: 18 Giant Skeletons Discovered in Wisconsin
UFO mania: The Great Smithsonian Cover-Up: 18 Giant Skeletons Discovered in Wisconsin
Scientists are remaining stubbornly silent about a lost race of giants found in burial mounds near Lake Delavan, Wisconsin, in May 1912. The dig site at Lake Delavan was overseen by Beloit College and it included more than 200 effigy mounds that proved to be classic examples of 8th century Woodland Culture. But the enormous size of the skeletons and elongated skulls found in May 1912 did not fit very neatly into anyone’s concept of a textbook standard. They were enormous. These were not average human beings. Strange Skulls
First reported in the 4 May 1912 issue of the New York Times the 18 skeletons found by the Peterson brothers on Lake Lawn Farm in southwest Wisconsin exhibited several strange and freakish features.
Their heights ranged between 7.6ft and 10 feet and their skulls...
“presumably those of men, are much larger than the heads of any race which inhabit America to-day.”
They tend to have a double row of teeth, 6 fingers, 6 toes and like humans came in differant races. The teeth in the front of the jaw are regular molars. Heads usually found are elongated believed due to longer than normal life span.
One must wonder how much can they lift if twice the size of a average human today? Are these the Giants the Bible & many other civilizations have in their history and painted on their walls?
The Bible in Genisis 6:4
"There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old men of renown."
Now this is faulty logic to any scientist out there because I am using religous/cultural history to fill a hole in science.
Over 200 Giant digs have been found in recent years. Giant skeleton finds have not made the local/national news since the 1950’s for the most part. It seems in most peoples opinion do to the fear that people would question evolution . If anything a de-evolution.
In 2002, National Geographic reported a dozen Cyclops skeletons found in Greece that stood 12-15 1/2 Ft tall. That is 3 humans tall. One eye socket. Giants in history are typically cannibalistic in nature.
The reason why I am bringing up giants will all tie into politics, and word happenings. Look at a basketball hoop and add 5 feet. That tall. Greek Mythology talks about war with cyclops learning they had to bring down by taking out their legs rendering them slow and helpless.
American Giants (Red Hair Giants) where found with egyptian writing on their tombs have been found in multiple locations.
Mystery of The Wisconsin Giants
Was this some sort of prank, a hoax played by local farm boys or a demented taxidermist for fun and the attention of the press? The answer is no.
The Lake Delavan find of May 1912 was only one of dozens and dozens of similar finds that were reported in local newspapers from 1851 forward to the present day. It was not even the first set of giant skeletons found in Wisconsin.
On 10 August 1891, the New York Times reported that scientists from the Smithsonian Institution had discovered several large “pyramidal monuments” on Lake Mills, near Madison, Wisconsin.
“Madison was in ancient days the centre of a teeming population numbering not less than 200,000,” the Times said.
The excavators found an elaborate system of defensive works which they named Fort Aztalan.
“The celebrated mounds of Ohio and Indiana can bear no comparison, either in size, design or the skill displayed in their construction with these gigantic and mysterious monuments of earth — erected we know not by whom, and for what purpose we can only conjecture,” said the Times.
On 20 December 1897, the Times followed up with a report on three large burial mounds that had been discovered in Maple Creek, Wisconsin. One had recently been opened.
“In it was found the skeleton of a man of gigantic size. The bones measured from head to foot over nine feet and were in a fair state of preservation. The skull was as large as a half bushel measure. Some finely tempered rods of copper and other relics were lying near the bones.”
Giant skulls and skeletons of a race of “Goliaths” have been found on a very regular basis throughout the Midwestern states for more than 100 years. Giants have been found in Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois, Ohio, Kentucky and New York, and their burial sites are similar to the well-known mounds of the Mound Builder people.
The spectrum of Mound builder history spans a period of more than 5,000 years (from 3400 BCE to the 16th CE), a period greater than the history of Ancient Egypt and all of its dynasties.
There is a “prevailing scholarly consensus” that we have an adequate historical understanding of the peoples who lived in North America during this period. However, the long record of anomalous finds like those at Lake Delavan suggests otherwise.
The Great Smithsonian Cover-Up
Has there been a giant cover-up? Why aren’t there public displays of gigantic Native American skeletons at natural history museums?
The skeletons of some Mound Builders are certainly on display. There is a wonderful exhibit, for example, at the Aztalan State Park where one may see the skeleton of a “Princess of Aztalan” in the museum.
But the skeletons placed on display are normal-sized, and according to some sources, the skeletons of giants have been covered up.
Specifically, the Smithsonian Institution has been accused of making a deliberate effort to hide the “telling of the bones” and to keep the giant skeletons locked away.
In the words of Vine Deloria, a Native American author and professor of law:
“Modern day archaeology and anthropology have nearly sealed the door on our imaginations, broadly interpreting the North American past as devoid of anything unusual in the way of great cultures characterized by a people of unusual demeanor. “The great interloper of ancient burial grounds, the nineteenth century Smithsonian Institution, created a one-way portal, through which uncounted bones have been spirited. “This door and the contents of its vault are virtually sealed off to anyone, but government officials. Among these bones may lay answers not even sought by these officials concerning the deep past.”
Two Giant Skeletons Near Potosi, WI
The January 13th, 1870 edition of the Wisconsin Decatur Republican reported that two giant, well-preserved skeletons of an unknown race were discovered near Potosi, WI by workers digging the foundation of a saw mill near the bank of the Mississippi river.
One skeleton measured seven-and-a-half feet, the other eight feet. The skulls of each had prominent cheek bones and double rows of teeth. A large collection of arrowheads and “strange toys” were found buried with the remains.
Giant Skeleton Discovered in Maple Creek, WI
On December 20th, 1897 the New York Times reported that three large burial mounds had been discovered near Maple Creek, WI. Upon excavation, a skeleton measuring over nine feet from head to toe was discovered with finely tempered copper rods and other relics.
Giant Skeleton in West Bend, WI
A giant skeleton was unearthed outside of West Bend near Lizard Mound County Park and assembled by local farmers to a height of eight feet. More about this can be found in Washington County Paranormal: A Wisconsin Legend Trip by local author and investigator J. Nathan Couch.
While a normal-sized skeleton of a supposed mound builder (the “Princess of Aztalan”) is on display at the site of several large pyramidal monuments near Madison called Aztalan State Park, the goliath remains of Wisconsin’s giants have vanished along with the hundreds of others discovered throughout the midwest.
Many have accused the Smithsonian Institution of covering up these discoveries, locking the giant skeletons away and depriving the public of their findings.

BREAKING: Fireballs in Kerala a Meteor Shower? [PHOTOS]
BREAKING: Fireballs in Kerala a Meteor Shower? [PHOTOS]
Fireball in KeralaTwitter
Kerala CM Oommen Chandy's office has said that these fireballs might be meteor shower, according to ReporterLive.
The fireball appeared with a noise in many parts of Kerala, including Ernakulam, Thrissur, Palakkad, Thiruvananthapuram, Kollam, Kozhikode, Malappuram and Kannur.
Some even reported that people felt minor earthquake in many parts of Ernakulam, including Fort Kochi, Vypin, Willington Island and Kolenchery.
Cabinet Minister Adoor Prakash has ordered an investigation on the matter and requested the residents not to panic.
Latest reports suggest that the suspected object might have fallen somewhere in central Kerala.
No casualties have been reported as of now.
Meanwhile, on Saturday morning, an impact crater has been spotted at Karimalloor village in Ernakulam district, which is believed to be caused by the fireball on Friday night.
"We have located a suspected impact crater at Karimalloor village in Ernakulam district and our team is rushing to the spot," State Disaster Management Authority's scientist Sekhar Kuriakose said, according to Business Standard.
Recently, similar incidents were reported in the US, Russia and various parts of Europe. NASA had explained that these could be the debris of the disintegrated Chinese rocket that was carrying the Yaogan Weixing-26 satellite.
"Few days ago fireball was seen across sky above Western US, which according to NASA was Chinese rocket debris," scientist Rajagopal Kammath said, according to Manorama Online.
When a massive and mysterious hole was discovered in Siberia last July (see pictures), social media users pointed to everything from a meteorite to a stray missile to aliens to the Bermuda Triangle as possible causes. But the most plausible explanation seemed to be the explosive release of melting methane hydrate—an ice-like material frozen in the Arctic ground—thanks to global warming
Now, scientists are arguing that the methane theory is unlikely, based on new satellite surveys released by Russian researchers that found dozens of new craters in Siberia.
"The jury is still out" on the cause of Siberia's craters, says Carolyn Ruppel, chief of the U.S. Geological Survey's Gas Hydrates Project. But she and other scientists say the new satellite mapping suggests another explanation that has to do with the rapid melting of ice cores called pingos.
A pingo is a plug of ice that forms near the surface over time and has a small mound or hill on top.
When an ice plug melts rapidly—as many have been, thanks to unseasonably warm temperatures in Siberia over the past year—it can cause part of the ground to collapse, forming a crater. But that process alone isn't enough to explain the ejected rocks that have been found around the rim of the craters, which suggest some sort of explosion.
Instead, Ruppel theorizes that the craters were formed by a sudden release of natural gas that had been stored in the permafrost but was kept under pressure by the weight of the pingo.
This theory is bolstered by the Russian satellite data, which show pingos—they appear as small mounds—in the exact positions where the craters later formed.
There are many more pingos across Siberia, as well as on Alaska's North Slope, so there's substantial risk of additional craters opening up as the planet continues to warm, Ruppel says.
"Urgent Investigation"
Until this week, scientists had known about only three of the craters. In November, scientists from the Russian Centre of Arctic Exploration donned climbing gear and explored one of them, which was 54 feet (16.5 meters) deep.
But in response to the discovery of more holes, Moscow-based scientist Vasily Bogoyavlensky has called for an "urgent investigation" of the holes amid safety fears, since oil and gas operations are not far from the craters on Russia's remote Yamal Peninsula, in northern Siberia.
Bogoyavlensky, who is deputy director of Russia's Oil and Gas Research Institute, told Russian media this week that at least seven craters have now been detected by satellites, including one large hole that is surrounded by as many as 20 smaller craters. Two of the previously discovered craters have developed into lakes.
But Ruppel says methane hydrates are found only in permafrost on land at about 740 feet (225 meters) or deeper, which is much deeper than any of the observed craters (which are around 50 feet, or 15 meters, deep).

Israeli Forces Include Alien Invasion In Their Training Exercise
Israeli Forces Include Alien Invasion In Their Training Exercise
Is alien invasion in the mind of Israel Defense Forces (IDF)? Jerusalem Post recently reported that this is precisely what they have been preparing.
Extraterrestrial life and alien invasion ideas have been here on Earth for many decades. In fact, they have been the subjects of many science fiction books, novels, and movies for decades. The War of the Worlds novel by H.G. Well left many people believed that a Martian invasion was about to happen.
While Martian invasion is no longer the center when it comes to alien invasion idea, many still believe that extraterrestrial invasion will occur in the near future, and the alien race may not be necessarily coming from Mars.
But the concept appears not only embraced by science fiction writers and UFO believers because it is now being used in government and military procedures. The Israel Defense Forces included the concept in their recent training exercise that appeared to center the idea of the spacecraft of alien beings invading planet Earth.
The training exercise is designed for programming unit of Israeli Air Force. However, the commander of the operation said that the alien invasion part of the training was just a framing story. The goal is to make the participants understand the importance of creating cyber defense. According to the commander, they were adapting the Generation Y, which enjoys challenges, in their training. For this reason, according to the commander, they prepared the framing story of an extraterrestrial invasion.
A system was developed for the participating soldiers to hack. The instruction was to find out all information about the fake alien spacecraft in order to develop a robust cyber defense system.
The Israel Defense Forces might be merely using an alien invasion story for a serious training exercise, but not all peopletake the idea lightly. In Hawaii, a UFO landing pad was developed to promote peaceful relations with space aliens.
The best UFOs cught on tape in China. In this video, there are series of clips were put together by Nick Thomas. These sightings were between 2010-2013 in China.
New UFO sighting has allegedly been seen over a volcano in Japan, adding to the mounting UFO sightings associated with volcanos around the world.
Recently, a video appeared online showing a potential UFO sighting hovering over the Sakurajima volcano in Japan.
“This round glowing UFO was caught on live cam recording the Sakurajima volcano in Japan. This glowing orb is massive in scale and may be heading to a secret entrance around the mouth of the volcano,” theorizes Scott Waring on UFO Sightings Daily.
There are many wild theories as to why UFO sightings seem to increase around volcanoes.
“It’s a well-known fact that UFOs frequently are seen coming and going from volcanos, but 90% the sightings happen around active volcanos. The smoke, gasses and activity is used to discourage humans from coming too close.”
And true to form, there are many volcanos around the world that attract UFO sighting reports, particularly Popocatepetl in Mexico.
A recent UFO sightings video was captured on December 15 over the Popocatepetl volcano in Mexico. In the video, you can allegedly make out two “orbs” floating around the volcano.
The fact that a strange ‘clicking’ radio transmission seems to be coming from inside the comet – sounding eerily like a Predator’s jaws opening and closing – has just stoked the fires of conspiracy theorists, just as the Rosetta craft’s Philae Lander touches down.
Explore the internet too long, and you’ll be firmly convinced Ming the Merciless and Darth Vader are enjoying a final Martini inside before obliterating our planet, and using us all as sex-slaves in the brothel-pits of Proxima Centauri.
Nigel Watson, author of the Haynes UFO Investigations Manual says there are five main ‘theories’ as to what the rock might REALLY be.
To any UFO enthusiast, the idea that it might just be a lump of ice is preposterous, an obvious cover-up and frankly boring. Here’s what they REALLY believe…
It’s a UFO Armada, advancing on Earth
An artist’s impression shows the Rosetta orbiter deploying the Philae lander to comet 67P
(Picture: Reuters)
UFO Sightings Daily excitedly proclaimed that it was a UFO armada, largely on the evidence of a small piece of rubbish down one side, and a beacon-ish thing (a rock) showing that there were UFOs parked inside ready for some annoying space probe to goad them into fury.
No one has seen any UFOs – but if there are aliens lurking within, they may well be habitual litterbugs.
There is some form of mothership in there!
Philae could have company on the surface (Picture: Rex)
A picture of a disc-shaped UFO swooping past the comet in September led the more certifiable members of the UFO community to conclude that there was some sort of parking bay for saucers inside the flying rock 300 million miles from Earth. There is however, no diesel or unleaded pumps, mor a Wild Bean Cafe or KFC.
NASA is secretly leading us to an alien base
NASA has detected a radio signal from inside this rock for 20 years (Picture Rex)
‘One blogger suggested that the whole reason for this multi-million pound project is to search for alien life or even contact it, as it did not make sense to spend so much on just visiting a lifeless ‘rock,’ Watson says.
Why an alien tourist might have chosen to spend four billion years sitting inside a featureless lump of ice is another question…
Are those radio transmissions warnings saying, ‘Hands off?’
Strange crackling sounds have come from inside the comet (Picture: ESA)
Watson says, ‘Lots of UFO bloggers point out that NASA has received radio transmissions from the comet for 20 years, and that instead of being a comet it is in actual fact an ancient spaceship.’ Imagine the sort of mood Darth’ll be in if you wake him up before he gets his beauty sleep…’
Mexico, there have been sightings of unusual objects flying into and around an active volcano named Popocatépetl, which is the Aztec word for “Smoking Mountain”. There were numerous explosions that produced ash clouds on Oct. 25, the same day of the UFO event, reports Open Minds TV. Among the sightings, there is one that captured popular attention. A brightly illuminated, cigar-shaped object was filmed by the Mexican media company Televisa.
According to International Business Times, Televisa caught the alleged UFO image on a fixed camera that is used to monitor the volcano’s daily activity, located about 40 miles south of Mexico City.
Popocatepetl volcano area is known for UFO sightings and this video of a clear, cylindrical and elongated UFO comes right on the heels of a very similar Kentucky UFO sighting. There is, however, some questioning surrounding the authenticity of this particular Popocatepetl footage and I feel we are responsible for doing our due diligence in ruling out all possible forgeries.
“There’s a tendency to quickly sign off on the video’s legitimacy. The problem is that, at this moment, we don’t have an exact pedigree detailing the video’s original source and the hands through which it has passed,” said former FBI Special Agent Ben Hansen.
“It seems fairly obvious that the audio of the rumbling volcano accompanying the news story was dubbed in,” Hansen, the lead investigator of the Syfy Channel’s “Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files” series, told The Huffington Post in an email.
But despite the suspicion raised regarding the cylindrical UFO footage, Popocatepetl has quite a history of strange activity, another UFO was captured by a news camera early Thursday, November 8th By the mere definition of the term UFO, we can indeed conclude these are unidentified flying objects. But this begs an even grander question, what makes Popocatepetl volcano a hotspot for this activity? There is a staggering amount of evidence and eye witness accounts telling us that our skies are populated with strange activity that defies conventional understanding and if these sightings are authentic, why this volcano? Below are some postulations I have gathered that I feel deserve our attention. You will also find a list of sources I referencedso you can further your own investigation and reach your own conclusions.
Newly discovered Mayan artifact and image of our Sun showing a similar triangular sunspot
Sun Gods, Sun Spots and the Great Singularity
Many ancient traditions talk about the sun as being the doorway to the higher realm where the sun gods came from. They talk about the black hole in the center of our galaxy as the hub, the central sun from which you can access all of the stars in the galaxy.
The Sun Gods must have been “Sun Gods” for a reason. They were called “Sun Gods” in all ancient civilisations: Egyptian, Mayan, Chinese, and so on. The reason that they were called “Sun Gods” was that they used stars as gateways to go from one side of the galaxy to the other. That is why, for instance, the ancient traditions in most of these countries talk about the sun as the “doorway” to the higher places where The Sun Gods come from. So you would enter the sun and then, through to the galactic center, out one of the arms of the galaxy, out one of the sun in another arm of the galaxy
Sunspots appear where the sun becomes very active, usually at the 19.47 degree latitude. Nassim Harameindiscovered, contrary to prior opinion, that sun spots reflect fire being sucked into a collapsing black hole while emitting steam (H2O). Nassim also noted that multiple sun spots always occur in opposite polarity. When you have a vortex going one way in the Coriolis Effect you have another going on at another point on the opposite side. They generate a link at the middle and that link is the singularity. Sun spots are huge vortices going toward singularity at the center of the black hole. That’s why you see fire being sucked in. What’s being shot out? Water (steam)!
Popocatepetl volcano is approximately located at 19.47 degrees latitude
“Sun spots” of the Earth
If you were a society that had ships at the size of the earth, you would not be able to go into a small black hole like the earth. Your ship would be too big for that planet. So you go for the next fractal level of black holes. You would go for the sun. But if you were using a smaller ship and you want to go through the black hole of the earth, then you would find that black hole by going through the “sun spots” of the earth. These “sun spots” would be the volcanoes that you find on earth. The volcanoes might not be what we think they are. The most active volcanoes on earth are at 19.47 latitude. Most volcanoes have a large amount of UFO activity. The volcanoes at 19.47 latitude in Mexico have so much UFO activity, that the Mexican government has started to train pilots so that they know where the UFO activity is and be able to avoid them when they are approaching Mexico City for landing. Also Mexicans tipically sit on their porch at night and look at the UFO’s coming in and out of the volcanoes.
“Today the main headlines of local newspapers Milenio and Extramex present a photograph of an unknown luminous flying object over the erupting volcano Popocatepetl located near from Mexico City and Puebla. The spectacular photograph taken by reporter Alfonso Reyes last tuesday 19 at 6:10 AM while making a report of the gigant violent awakening present a bright luminous object that contrast with the black clouds of smoke emanated from the volcano crater. The photo was taken in a 20 seconds exposure time and a 24 mm angular lens according to Mr. Reyes testimony.”
“Dozens of witnesses have recorded sightings on video and photographs of UFOs going in and out of – or circling Mt. Popocatepetl often before an eruption. Mexico takes us to myths about 2012 - as an end time date and the return of Quetzalcoatl, the feathered serpent God. One legend has it that he lives beneath the volcano in a subterranean city. Another says that he flew off in a spaceship saying he will return one day. That goes with the ‘returning god hypothesis’, at the end of time.”
The Planetary Merkaba and Hyperdimensional Physics
Why is the storm known as the Great Red Spot on Jupiter appearing at 19.5 degrees and never goes away? Why is the largest volcano on Mars, Olympus Mons, at 19.5 degrees latitude? Could it be the same reason Hawaii is also at 19.5 degrees latitude on Earth? Why does Jupiter emit more energy than it receives from the Sun? All these events may be explained by Richard Hoagland’s theory of Hyperdimensional Physics (HD).(8) The effects of Hyperdimensional Physics become prevalent when a body is a state of rotation. Let me emphasize: rotation, rotation, rotation. According to the hyperdimensional model, as a sphere rotates the hyperdimensional properties can be seen as a tetrahedron, the simplest 3D shape, circumscribed within the sphere. If the point of one tetrahedron is at the pole of the sphere the other points would intersect at approx. 19.47 or 19.5 degrees latitude. After Hoagland had done extensive analysis of the Cydonia region of Mars where the infamous “face” was discovered, he found that 19.5 had been memorialized everywhere or like in the novel Contact, a message may have been given to us, in the form of mathematical equations.(8) The area we shall be focusing upon is between 19-20° North and 98-100° West. Within it we find Tenochtitlan which once existed exactly on the 19.5° latitude, and nearby it are Teotihuacan as well as the Popocatepetl and Iztacihuatl volcano's. It is the exact placement of their Pyramid centers nearby to these volcano's that is worth our attention.(9)
Tetrahedron
This geometrical shape is made up of 2 interlocking Tetrahedrons
A Tetrahedron is 1 of 5 perfect solids (the platonic solids). When a Star Tetrahedron is placed inside the Earth and 2 of its points aligned to the N. and S. poles, the remaining 6 (3 North and 3 South) points touch the surface of the Earth at 19.5° North and South of the Equator.(9)
When 1 of the 19.5° N. points of the Star Tetrahedron is aligned to Tenochtitlan, the remaining 5 points all pin point strong volcanic activity, either as Volcano Islands, a Desert Volcano, or an Underwater Volcano.(9)
Could 1947 Just Have Happened Again? Reports Just Tonight! Original Correspondence As Follows Submitted To Thirdphaseofmoon! Quote Mark “Apparently a disc shaped craft was seen crashing through the ice on the lake, at least one person got photographic evidence but has since been detained by the Canadian military. UFO crash in rural Manitoba Canada: A UFO crash landed into a frozen lake within the last 24 hours on a Indian reservation in rural Manitoba.
“I have contact with a former resident of the reservation and their family still lives on the reservation and informed them about the situation this evening.
I have also been informed that nobody is allowed to leave or enter the reservation at this time and that the military has been going door to door talking with residents. They are telling the residents that they are conducting emergency training exercises, but there has been an extreme cold front in Manitoba over the last 2 days and it is extremely dangerous to spend time outdoors for any period.
The military has moved in all their equipment effectively blocking any view of what may have crashed into the water or what they are doing there, but I’m sure they are recovering the evidence.
I will get back in touch with in a few hours, I was told the name of the reservation but it was very long and hard to pronounce, I will get the exact spelling of the reservation in a few hours when I meet with my contact and I will forward any new information over.”
When you get up above the earth, you look down and begin to see shapes. Many are made naturally and others are ancient sites, usually circular. The ones in South Africa (below) were dated around 300,000 years!

What did this shape mean to the ancients? It is repeated in clusters like grapes, with a lines bisecting it, in consecutive circle within circle and spiral forms.
COSTA MESA CALIFORNIAI would carpool with my husband each workday for college. He would work in his office and I would grab a bit of sleep as it was still very early and before my classes started. It was 4 AM when I was putting down my seat as usual to take my nap.
It was dark in the parking lot, I put my blanket over myself and closed my eyes and felt a presence. I can’t say if I heard anything but I just felt something there perhaps the figures cast a slight shadow. I turned onto my back to look out the window and suddenly I could not move or scream. I saw 2 figures that appeared like the grays I have heard of.
They were a little taller than the car. They had a light gray and smooth flesh appearance. I could not move my head so I could not look at their bodies much but to see their heads. I was caught by their eyes. Very dark and deep looking and had the almond shape.
The shape of their heads was elongated and larger than their bodies. An metal cold cylindrical instrument with a needle on the end of it, was coming through the window at me and it started entering my head. The area at the instrument at the window seemed almost like melted glass if I could find words for it. I wanted to move away from it but couldn’t move at all.
It hurt like a searing, burning intense pain. I was thinking my thoughts to them, “stop, go away, don’t” but they didn’t communicate with me in any way that I remember. I was terrified! I just wanted them to stop what they were doing. It felt as if that tool that had a needle with a long handle had gone into my sinuses above my right ear.
I couldn’t believe it seemed as though it was going through the metal and the glass of the car and into my head! How? I could not move at all but for my eyes and that seemed to be a bit limited? The tool retracted instantly and they were gone as quickly as they appeared.
I could move again. I was out of that car so fast and into my husbands office so fast! I was now hysterically telling him what just happened and he thought that I had just had a nightmare but it was very real. I had not had time to go to sleep.
I have had sinus issues and have since gone out on permanent disability. I had a sinus surgery and they told me that they found rat cells? I asked how that could be? The doctor changed the subject and never did answer me.
I feel that it had to have come from that time in the parking lot. I have had pain in that same area of my head off and on since that attack. I get a searing pain that I can’t really even think when it happens. I call them attacks.
I don’t know what they did but I don’t like them at all! They have caused me a lot of continued pain. For me the object was the tool they sent into my head as I did not see any craft.
Slideshow: a collection of photographs that show an unnatural orange light moving across the Saugatuck Reservoir in Nov., 2013. Each picture is an eight-second exposure, taken one-after-another, meaning each photograph shows the distance traveled by the light in eight seconds. (Note: an earlier version of this story incorrectly stated the time-lapse pictures were taken in October.)
In the fall of 1966, a dentist driving down Route 53 through Redding and Weston noticed something unexplainable hovering over the Saugatuck Reservoir.
The dentist, Dr. Harry Neilsen of Darien, later described what he saw as “a large, triangular glow bearing red and white lights” just above the horizon near the large reservoir, a news wire service reported in December of that year.
This event would prove to be the first of many published reports of strange, often red-orange lights in the skies above both Redding and Weston. The reports, found in old newspaper articles and on UFO reporting sites, have been compiled and today, almost 50 years since the first report, Hersam Acorn Newspapers has what may be the first photographic evidence of the phenomenon.
Taken in November and December of 2013, the digital photographs by Wilton Bulletin reporter Christopher Burns show an unnatural orange light moving horizontally and slowly just above the tree-line on the southeast side of the Saugatuck Reservoir, near the Easton/Weston town line.
The light is so bright in the photographs that a clear reflection of it can be seen in the water of the reservoir.
Andrew Flynn, a Reddingite who was with Mr. Burns while he took the pictures, said the light was bright and immediately unfamiliar.
“Living just outside of New York City, planes and helicopters are seen quite often. When I first saw this light I was with a group of people and it was immediately identified as something out of the ordinary,” Mr. Flynn said.
And it didn’t happen just once, Mr. Flynn said. During the winter of 2013, he “continued to see it time and time again.”
The Saugatuck Reservoir was constructed in the late 1930s on the site of a hamlet known as Valley Forge. In the 1700s, Valley Forge was made up of farms and swampland. In the 19th Century, the village was a vital industrial center, boasting iron and steel mills and factories along the Saugatuck River.
But in the early part of the 20th Century, Bridgeport Hydraulic Company bought up most of the land, dammed the Saugatuck River and flooded the valley to create the reservoir to serve the city of Bridgeport to the south.
The majority of the reservoir is located in Weston, where 75% of the town’s land is protected from development in perpetuity. In fact, the entire eastern shore of the reservoir borders Centennial State Forrest, where no development has been allowed.
A map shows the point on the reservoir where the photos were taken, and the estimated location of the lights. (Click the maps to enlarge)
Historical sitings
In addition to the 1966 lights siting, a string of Redding Pilot articles from the mid-1970s report a very similar phenomenon.
“Moving in a straight path across the sky was a large yellow globe, the brightest thing in the clear evening. It moved from west to east above the tree line at a fairly good speed and then disappeared over the horizon,” one Pilot editorial from 1976 reads. “[The woman] explained how the bright sky-thing had kept pace with her car as it moved north into Redding; then it suddenly changed direction and headed east.”
In the editorial account, the light would later return to the home of the woman, where she and her husband saw it hovering again.
Another story in The Pilot, “Encounters Too Close for Comfort” from 1978, goes into even greater detail.
Leon Adams reported seeing a strange light as he drove to work the midnight to 8 a.m. shift in the boiler room at the Gilbert and Bennett Wire Mill in Georgetown.
The article reads, “At first the light was stationary and looked as if it hung directly over the factory, Mr. Adams said, but as he approached it, he realized the UFO was more distant. He estimated its location as above the Saugatuck Reservoir because the brightness lit up the trees … He tried to think of likely explanations for the object, but the light had been too bright, particularly when it began to spin and show colors, to have been a helicopter, a plane, or a search light.”

More recent reports
At least two more Redding Pilot articles from the 1970s discuss strange lights in the skies above Redding, Weston, and even Easton. Such grouped sitings might have beeen written off as the work of a prankster had the orange lights not continued to be reported from that time up until today.
Four reports of lights in the sky were published by the National UFO Reporting Center in the early 2000s. One, from February 2011, discusses a light above Devil’s Den, a nature preserve near the Weston/Redding border.
“Last night at 8 p.m. I looked out [of] my living room window and noticed a flashing bright red light low on the horizon a mile or so away over the Devil’s Den area on the Weston/Redding border. It was low in the sky and unusually bright, much brighter than any airplane lights, flashing and drifting very slowly.”
Weston’s Animal Control Officer Mark Harper grew up on the reservoir and often works in the area, but told Hersam Acorn last year that he has never heard of the orange lights.
Weston Police Chief John Troxell, who has been with the Weston Police Department for 34 years, said he can’t recall any reports regarding lights over the reservoir.
On the other hand, a former Redding Pilot reporter told the newspaper that even 40 years after he saw the lights on BlChampignons snijdenack Rock Turnpike, he still remembers them. The Weston Forum has decided to keep his report anonymous at this time.
“In my mind, definitely UFO(s),” he wrote in an email Feb. 16 of this year. “Years later, someone suggested the possibility they were helicopters from Sikorsky. But they changed direction too quickly and moved way too fast. Never seen anything like it before or since.”

UFO-MANIA : "Now here's a Real Ufo"
UFO-MANIA : "Now here's a Real Ufo"
"This is a video I saved from YouTube back in May, 2012. The video was uploaded with the same title, without quotes. I was not able to find the original upload. *I have no further information regarding the origin of this video.* - - - Personally, I've never been able to settle on whether these are even "flying objects," or an unusual but interesting atmospheric effect being created by someone/something. If you look closely, there do seem to be vague silhouettes of what might be buildings "above" the mountain range. Or maybe they're other mountain tops? At 0:51, one of the objects exhibits an interesting blinking effect. I don't believe it's CGI, but I'm no expert on that. I've sure as hell never seen anything like it, even online. I'm all ears for explanations, but I'll admit that I tend to lean more toward it being an atmospheric phenomenon. What do you think?"

Des drones ont survolé Paris deux nuits consécutives, planant au-dessus de zones sensibles ou touristiques dont la Tour Eiffel, les Invalides et l'ambassade américaine. Le 20 janvier dernier, un autre engin avait été aperçu au dessus de l'Elysée. Cette mini vague de drones sur la capitale survient après celle plus inquiétante de survols du parc nucléaire français par des appareils non identifiés. Alors qu'aucun responsable de ces intrusions n'a été interpellé, certains témoignages concernant le survol des centrales nucléaires de ces derniers mois laissent entrevoir une toute autre histoire : et si ces drones avaient une origine beaucoup plus énigmatique ?
En quatre mois, les deux tiers des 19 centrales nucléaires françaises ont été survolés à une ou à plusieurs reprises. Et les centrales ne sont pas les seules visées par ces inquiétantes tournées d'inspection aériennes: dans la nuit du 26 et 27 janvier, le site militaire de l'île Longue, dans la rade de Brest, où sont abrités les quatre sous-marins nucléaires lanceurs d'engins français a aussi été visité. Dans la seule soirée du 31 octobre 2014, pas moins de six sites ont été visités entre 18 heures et 22 heures : les centrales de Saint-Laurent-des-Eaux (Loir-et-Cher), Dampierre en Burly (Loiret), Belleville-sur-Loire (Cher), Fessenheim (Haut-Rhin), Flamanville (Manche) et Penly (Seine-Maritime).
Une telle simultanéité sur une vaste étendue de territoire suppose une organisation et une logistique sans faille, guère à la portée d'une bande de plaisantins équipée de drones vendus dans le commerce.
«Le survol des centrales nucléaires est interdit dans un périmètre de cinq kilomètres et de 1.000 mètres d'altitude autour des sites. L'espace aérien au-dessus des centrales nucléaires est surveillé par l'armée de l'air, dans le cadre d'un protocole avec EDF», rappelle l'AFP.
Pourtant, après trois mois de survols qui remettent en cause la sécurité du parc nucléaire français, aucune arrestation n'a été effectuée, aucun drone n'a été abattu et aucune piste sérieuse n'est envisagée, du moins publiquement. On ignore même quels types d'appareils sont utilisés : «Les témoignages de gendarmes recueillis sur le site de Crès-Malville parlent de survols dans des conditions météo de vents de 70 km/h et avec de la pluie. On a des hélicoptères à Golfech qui suivent pendant 9 km ces drones. On a un drone qui circule entre Flamanville et la Hague sur 18 km. La thèse des petits drones que l’on pilote le nez sur la clôture ne tient pas» résume pour Science et Avenir Yannick Rousselet, en charge de la campagne sur le nucléaire chez Greenpeace.
"L’armée se trouve confrontée à une stratégie soutenue par une technologie 'exogène'"
Pour l'instant, les drones qui survolent les centrales françaises sont donc au sens le plus littéral du terme des OVNIS, des Objets Volants Non Identifiés. De fait, la communauté française des spécialistes des OVNIS n'a pas tardé à s'emparer du sujet : l'ufologue Claude Levat a écrit le 6 décembre une «lettre ouverte au ministre de la Défense Jean-Yves Le Drian» qu'il interpelle en ces termes :
«L’armée se trouve confrontée à une stratégie soutenue par une technologie "exogène". La même méthodologie peut nous faire craindre une poursuite aggravée de ces manifestations avec démonstrations ostensibles vis à vis d’un public non "préparé". En conséquence en tant que citoyens concernés par la défense du territoire, nous avons l’honneur de vous demander votre opinion concernant cette question.»
Une technologie «exogène», autrement dit non terrestre sous-entend Claude Lavat...
Le Geipan (groupe d'études et d'informations sur les phénomènes aérospatiaux non identifiés), l'organisme officiel dépendant du CNES en charge de l'étude des PANS (Phénomènes Aérospatiaux Non identifiés, la terminologie scientifique désormais en vigueur pour désigner les OVNIs) a aussi été saisi par l'ufologue Jacky Kozan, de l'association «l'Académie d'ufologie» : «Vous avez certainement pris connaissance par les média nationaux et étrangers du fait que nos installations nucléaires civiles et militaires sont depuis plusieurs semaines survolées par des “engins non identifiés”. Ces nouvelles ont été confirmées fin octobre 2014 par un directeur national d’EDF s’exprimant sur les chaînes de télévision, en utilisant l’expression “engins volants non identifiés”. En conséquence et sans information provenant du GEIPAN, nous vous demandons de nous faire connaître les résultats d’une enquête qui a certainement été diligentée par le GEIPAN.»
Contrairement au ministère de la Défense, Xavier Passot, responsable du GEIPAN nommé en 2011 n'a pas tardé à répondre : «Pour votre information, le GEIPAN n’a pas été sollicité sur cette affaire récente de survol de centrales nucléaires. (…) Le GEIPAN, qui n’a été sollicité ni par EDF, ni par la gendarmerie, ni par aucun témoin sur cette affaire, n’a aucune activité sur ce sujet, si ce n’est la veille sur les informations de la presse. Et vous savez que nous n’avons pas mission d’aller chercher des observations inexpliquées. Nous sommes bien sûr très curieux de l’origine précise de ces engins volants, mais étant donné le lourd dispositif déjà déployé par la gendarmerie sur le sujet, l’apport du GEIPAN sur cette affaire serait bien maigre.»
Interrogé sur France Culture à propos de ces survols, Xavier Passot confirme mais laisse transparaître quelques doutes sur la version officielle : «Je n'ai pas reçu personnellement de témoignages. Tous les témoins de ces survols sont des employés des centrales nucléaires. Mais je sais qu'une personne a vu quelque chose près de Golfech et a contacté les gendarmes. L'observation a été classée drone (…) Je ne sais même pas sur quels critères tous ces objets ont été identifiés comme des drones. J'espère que c'est sur de bons critères mais je n'en suis pas absolument certain.»
"Nous savons qu’un témoin a déposé à la gendarmerie un témoignage d’observation à Sistel"
Xavier Passot évoque aussi dans sa réponse à Jacky Kozan cette observation d'un PAN près de la centrale de Golfech, le jour d'un survol de drone, le 30 novembre 2014 : «Nous savons toutefois par les forums qu’un témoin a déposé à la gendarmerie un témoignage d’observation à Sistel. Comme d’autres témoins ont observé un drone survolant la centrale de Golfech ce jour-là, ce témoignage a rejoint le dossier de l’enquête judiciaire en cours sur le survol des centrales nucléaires par des drones.»
Ce témoignage, publié sur le forum Mystères des Ovnis est le seul à notre connaissance dans lequel un témoin extérieur à EDF corrobore le survol d'une centrale nucléaire et fournit une description précise de l'objet impliqué, à supposer qu'il s'agit du même objet que celui signalé par la direction de la centrale. Or, le récit du témoin, Marc T., ajoute encore au trouble concernant la nature exacte de cet engin volant:
«Observation du 30 Octobre 2014, entre 20h50 et 21h00. La maison où je me trouvais se situe en hauteur, sur l'un des coteaux de la commune... Avec une vue dégagée sur la Centrale de Golfech. (…) On ne voyait qu'un gros point lumineux de couleur blanche (sans couleur) à l'horizon direction Nord Est vers Donzac (au dessus de Donzac pour être plus précis). A environs 4 à 5 kilomètres de nous et à une altitude de 200 m environ (pas beaucoup plus haut que les tours de la centrale elle-même). (…) Puis il a commencé à bouger lentement à très faible vitesse. Tout en pivotant sur lui-même comme pour amorcer un virage. A ce moment là, j'ai pu voir aux jumelles (et mon ami à l’œil nu) une seconde lumière de type flash. Comme un stroboscope. (...) Puis, il a commencé à se déplacer de plus en plus vite, à la vitesse d'un petit avion de type Cessna. Il se dirige maintenant plus vers St Loup, pour ensuite effectuer un virage assez serré se dirigeant alors dans notre direction. A mesure qu'il s'est rapproché de nous, j'ai pu voir aux jumelles un point rouge assez distinctement, assez brillant lui aussi. (…)
A environ 300 m de nous, de face, toujours avec son gros spot blanc, il reste presque immobile environ 15 à 20 secondes. J'ai alors eu le temps, mon ami aussi, de voir sa forme de face. C'est à ce moment là qu'il est le plus prêt de nous. Il a alors une forme "d'avion". Il ne faisait aucun bruit... rien du tout. On pouvait entendre la moissonneuse-batteuse sur le coteau d'à côté (à notre droite) mais rien pour cet objet. J'ai donc pu voir deux ailes. Son envergure faisait bien 6 à 7 m.
"J'ai observé un ovni triangulaire, noir mat avec trois lumières clignotante"
(…) Toujours aux jumelles, maintenant à 500 m de moi, mais cette fois de profil, j'ai été très surpris car j'avais beau le suivre (il n'avançait pas très vite) je n'arrivais pas à lui donner une forme précise. J'avais bien vu ces ailes juste avant, mais cette fois pratiquement de profil, je ne voyais pas bien les contours de l'objet. Ça faisait un peu l'effet d'un mirage dans le dessert.»
Résumons : un gros objet de six à sept mètres d'envergure, des lumières clignotantes, une forme floue «comme un mirage», une vitesse variable allant du sur-place à celle d'un avion de tourisme, aucun bruit, des «flashs stroboscopiques» que le témoin a interprété comme les flashs d'un appareil photographique... Il est clair que ce type de «drone» ne se trouve pas au supermarché du coin. Ci-dessous, une reconstitution de l'objet vu par les témoins :
Mais il y a plus étonnant encore. Le témoin a rapporté son observation aux gendarmes qui lui auraient confié avoir eux aussi vu quelque chose : «En discutant avec les gendarmes qui ont été très à l'écoute, ils m’ont dit avoir vu plus tard dans la soirée vers 21h50, près de l'un des ponts de la Garonne (…), quelque chose d’encore plus gros, bien plus imposant, presque comme un avion de ligne mais de forme carrée...»
Ce n’est pas la première fois que la centrale de Golfech est survolée par un engin mystérieux. En 2010, deux employés de la centrale ont observé et filmé un objet pour le moins insolite si l’on en croit cette description qui figure dans une enquête réalisée par l’ufologue Christophe Albiero: «Cela s'est déroulé le 6 octobre 2010 entre 20h15 et 20h17 à la centrale nucléaire de Golfech, à quelques mètres du bâtiment de sécurité du site. Il faisait très beau, le ciel est très clair, pas de vent, pas de nuages, visibilité parfaite, pas d'arbres vue complètement dégagée. J'ai observé un ovni triangulaire, noir mat avec trois lumières clignotantes blanches à chaque extrémité, et une rouge clignotante au centre. L'objet volait à basse altitude, j'ai pu le voir de très près. Il était assez grand et se déplaçait très lentement. J'ai pu le suivre a pied en marchant parallèlement à sa trajectoire. A un moment donné je me suis retrouvé pratiquement sous l'objet.
"L’objet est donc passé très près des deux réacteurs nucléaire"
Celui-ci ne faisait aucun bruit (moteur, sifflement etc), il n'y avait pas de souffle, pas d’odeur. L'objet a continué sa route en silence puis à environ trente mètres de moi sur ma gauche, il a pivoté sur sa droite puis est parti toujours lentement en prenant de l'altitude se dirigeant vers une colline. (…)
Je travaille à la centrale nucléaire de Golfech. L’objet était si bas que pour nous il n'était pas au dessus de la centrale mais bien à l'intérieur aussi haut que les cheminées de la centrale d’environ 150/200 m. L’objet est donc passé très près des deux réacteurs nucléaire. Il a survolé l'allée centrale, le bâtiment sécurité du site sans déclencher d'alarme à notre grand étonnement.»
Les deux témoins, Pascal et Sofiane, âgés de 44 et 20 ans à l’époque, ont contacté le GEIPAN mais ils sont en désaccord complet avec la conclusion assez lapidaire du rapport de l’organisme public: «Observation probable d’un avion».
Les OVNIS et les centrales nucléaires semblent entretenir un rapport complexe depuis des décennies en France et dans le monde. Au point d’inquiéter les autorités responsables ?
Peut-être, du moins si l’on en croit cet article du Canard Enchaîné consacré à une affaire de piratage informatique mené à l’encontre d’un militant de Greenpeace paru le 8 avril 2009.
L’hebdomadaire révèle que des enquêteurs du groupe Geos, chargés d’un audit de la sécurité de la tour EDF de La Défense «ont mis la main sur un rapport confidentiel de 260 pages consacré aux… extraterrestres.»
Que penser enfin de cette confidence de Pascal Pezzani, directeur de la centrale nucléaire du Blayais, elle aussi survolée le 13 octobre dernier ?
Lors de la «présentation des résultats 2014 et des perspectives de la centrale nucléaire» Pascal Pezzani, rapporte «Sud-Ouest» a «minimisé» les problèmes de sécurité: «Ici, on n'a pas vu de drone. On a vu un ovni et il n'y a eu aucun impact sur la sûreté de nos sites.»
Hawaï veut établir des relations diplomatiques avec les extraterrestres
Hawaï veut établir des relations diplomatiques avec les extraterrestres
Hawaï a installé un "sanctuaire pour les visiteurs de l'espace" ainsi qu'une aire d'atterrissage pour leurs ovnis. Objectif avoué : établir "des relations diplomatiques" avec les extraterrestres.
Établir des relations diplomatiques avec les extraterrestres : tel est l'objectif quelque peu atypique poursuivi par le Gouvernement légal d'Hawaï à travers son "sanctuaire pour les visiteurs de l'espace", vaste champ de lave situé à l'est de l'île et rendu "attirant" par les nombreux objets futuristes qui y trônent désormais. "Cet endroit peut même faire office de piste d'atterrissage", assure l'un des membres de l'organisme indépendantiste, Garry Hoffeld, au Wall Street Journal."Ce projet est toutefois purement symbolique", justifie-t-il. "Nous n'espérons pas vraiment voir un OVNI se poser sur l'île dès demain, mais nous voulons malgré tout faire de cet endroit un lieu d'accès facile aux populations étrangères dans le but d'avoir une vraie connexion intelligente avec les extraterrestres."
Par cette initiative, le Gouvernement légal d'Hawaï, qui se réclame légitime depuis sa création, en 1999, espère en fait populariser ses revendications souverainistes. "On veut annoncer au monde et à l'univers qu'Hawaï est là, qu'Hawaï est de retour, qu'Hawaï est un pays neutre", ambitionne Garry Hoffeld. La création de l'aire d'atterrissage extraterrestre permettrait donc avant tout de donner une utilité internationale à l'archipel. Une première étape avant d'y voir se développer des ambassades internationales et des consulats, selon Hoffeld. Quoi qu'il en soit, le ministre de la Justice du Royaume d'Hawaï, une autre organisation indépendantiste, étudie d'ores et déjà la manière dont les lois sur la citoyenneté et l'immigration pourraient s'appliquer aux aliens.

Waar komt heldere roze wolk boven Tucson vandaan? - HLN.be
Waar komt heldere roze wolk boven Tucson vandaan? - HLN.be
Bron: Buzzfeed, ABC News
RuimtevaartVroege vogels in Tucson (Arizona) waren gisterochtend getuige van een felle roze wolk boven de stad. Die verscheen aan de vroege ochtendhemel na de lancering van een NASA-onderzoeksraket.
Het tuig werd om 05.26 uur gelanceerd vanop een legerbasis in White Sands, in de naburige staat New Mexico. Een heldere roze wolk sierde daarna gedurende twintig minuten de vroege ochtendhemel.
Het kijkspel was het gevolg van zonlicht dat scheen op de dampen die bij het afschieten van de raket waren vrijgekomen, bevestigen functionarissen van de militaire basis.
Talloze ochtendmensen in Arizona spotten de roze verschijning en deelden foto's via sociale media.
De lancering van de raket was eerst voorzien voor maandag, maar werd uitgesteld omwille van slechte weersomstandigheden.
A woman recorded video of a UFO over Lewisburg, Mississippi in the early morning hours of Thursday, February 26.
The witness, Angela Ashton, says she was in bed when she saw a “bright blinding light” through her large bedroom window just after midnight. She raced outside with her camera to record the unusual aerial object.
(Credit: Angela Ashton/WMC)
She describes the UFO as triangle-shaped and extremely large. She thinks the object was “at least the size of a football field.”
The object was completely silent as it hovered for approximately twenty minutes over a nearby field. According to the witness, the UFO then shot straight up into the sky and disappeared. Unfortunately, the disappearance wasn’t captured on video. Ashton says she only managed to capture a few seconds of video because it was cold outside.
Local NBC affiliate WMC-TV contacted purported drone expert Robert Estes for his opinion. After watching Ashton’s video, Estes doesn’t believe the object in the video is a drone because most drones “don’t have lights like you see in the video.”
(Credit: Angela Ashton/WMC)
Estes also opined that the UFO could simply be a plane.
But Ashton, who is a “certified Paranormal Investigator” with Cryptic Shadows Paranormal Research, and claims to have researched UFOs for more than fifteen years, is convinced that what she observed was extraterrestrial.
UFO Buzzes Nuclear Plant In Mexico, Latest Of Many UFOs Seen Hovering At Nuke Facilities
A UFO filmed hovering over nuclear power plant in Veracruz, Mexico, and posted to YouTube November 7 is just the latest in a long series of UFO sightings over and near nuclear facilities — as history of ominous sightings that stretches back six decades, to the earliest days of nuclear energy production.
The UFO video from Laguna Verde Nuclear Power Plant, a 24-year-old nuke owned and operated by the Mexican government, was purportedly shot with a cell phone camera on November 5 by an engineer at the power plant. The 91-second-long video, viewable above, definitely shows something hovering over the nuclear reactors. But what?
While technically a UFO because the object is “unidentified” and flying, speculation among commenters on the video’s YouTube page, which as received more than 40,000 views so far, ranges from “toy,” to “party balloon,” to the more sinister “Russian spy thing.” By “thing,” the commenters mean a drone, that is, an unmanned aircraft of some kind. But a drone could be anything from a harmless toy to a military surveillance or attack aircraft.
Or is the video simply a hoax? So far, no experts have examined the Mexican UFO video closely enough to weigh in. Of course, some viewers of the video see it as an authentic recording of an alien spacecraft. Scott Waring, of the popular UFO Sighting Daily blog, speculates that “aliens are interested in our technological advances and how we make energy, while impacting the Earth with pollution.”
Another possibility, Waring believes, is that he video shows a damaged alien spacecraft “harvesting” energy from the Laguna Verde nuke to “get home.” While Waring’s speculation will likely be taken with a grain of nuclear powered salt by most observers, the fact remains that nuclear power plants have been unusually common sites for UFO sightings.
The phenomenon dates back to 1950, when a number of scientists working on a then-secret nuclear energy project at Los Alamos spotted a disc-shaped UFO zig-zagging across the sky at an altitude of about 2,000 feet. Two years later, similar UFO sightings were reported UFOs hovering over newly-built nuclear plants in Washington and South Carolina.
More recently, a 2012 UFO video from Mexico was also captured at a nuclear power plant. And in April of this year, a series of UFO sightings were reported at McGuire Nuclear Station in North Carolina.
The Salem Nucelar Power Plant in New Jersey has also been the site of numerous UFO sightings, which like all UFO incidents, may have an innocent explanation, but one has not yet been forthcoming.

AMAZING PHOTO OF A TRIANGLE CRAFT OVER VALLEY FORGE PENNSYLVANIA JANUARY 7, 2015
VALLEY FORGE PENNSYLVANIA On this particular evening I was driving home from work.
Because of where I live, I always take Gulph Rd through Valley Forge Park to and from work. I was driving NW on Gulph Rd towards Phoenixville away from King of Prussia, when I noticed three very bright lights just over the tree line in the distance (I think I noticed them just about the time I passed the Washington Memorial Chapel).
The lights were side by side. At first glance it looked to be an airplane of some sort. But as I drove closer I realized whatever it was, was too bright and too low to be a plane.
I actually started to think that maybe they had built a tower in the park with lights at the top of it, but I knew that wasn’t logical because I would have seen this tower/monument by now. I also started to realize that whatever it was, wasn’t stationary.
It was moving, but slowly. When I was finally back on a straight part of the road, I had decided that this was just too weird and started snapping pictures. As I got closer it was more apparent to me that this wasn’t a plane or a helicopter.
I considered pulling over, but had someone behind me. It was also very dark and 17 degrees outside. But after my car had finally passed the lights (I couldn’t describe anything beyond that because of how bright the three lights were) I decided to look back at it out my driver side window.
This is when I realized that it was literally just above the tree line and shaped like a Triangle. Once I was past the lights I could distinguish the shape vividly.
After my experience I was a little shaken up. I called my mom, who thought I was just pulling her leg. But after I sent her the pictures, she was convinced. She even went as far as to research sightings in Valley Forge. She came up with two interesting stories.
One, was of George Washington, who had reported witnessing a UFO in the now park. And a few years ago someone else had reported a very similar story to mine, which made me feel less crazy. I have been living in the area for almost 5 years now, and I visit the park often.
I know this park in and out. I know what the planes flying overhead look like. And I’ve seen my fair share of helicopters and drones. This to me was just so weird and unexplainable.
It took me almost a week to even send in my story.
I’m open-minded about unexplainable events, but I personally do not come to conclusions without thinking about it first.
Even if this was totally explainable, it was still weird and definitely a story worth sharing.
This case is under investigation by MUFON Pennsylvania investigators.
Wetenschap Het was een populaire theorie maar onderzoek met het hoofdzakelijk Belgische Rosina-instrument op de Europese komeetsonde Rosetta toonde aan dat het niet (exclusief) kometen zijn die water naar onze planeet hebben gebracht. Dat zei Johan De Keyser van het Belgisch Instituut voor Ruimte-Aëronomie (BIRA) vandaag in het Planetarium van Brussel bij de voorstelling van de eerste missieresultaten.
De Rosetta is op 2 maart 2004 met een Ariane-5 draagraket gelanceerd en bereikte de komeet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko in augustus vorig jaar. Later kon de meegevoerde lander Philae bij wijze van wereldprimeur landen op het hemellichaam dat net als andere kometen geacht wordt meer te leren over het ontstaan van ons zonnestelsel.
Eén van de instrumenten op Rosetta is de Rosina-massaspectrometer die hoofdzakelijk van Belgische makelij is en die voor de studie van de atmosfeer van de komeet dient. Het BIRA in Ukkel werkte daarvoor samen met de bedrijven IMEC (Leuven) en OIP (Oudenaarde).
Rosina leerde dat de hoeveelheid gas, die (aan 500 meter per seconde) ontsnapt uit de nucleus van de "staartster", varieert in de tijd, met name naargelang de rotatie (in 12,5 uur) van het hemellichaam rondom zijn eigen as, met een temperatuur van min 170 bij nacht en min 100 graden per dag. Ook de locatie op de komeet speelt een rol in die variatie.
Uit de eerste resultaten blijkt dat de komeetkern maar een losse samenhang van materiaal is, met een dichtheid van 1/2 gram per kubieke centimeter
Maar ook de verhouding van de uitgestoten relatieve hoeveelheden H2O (water), koolstof (CO) en koolstofdioxide (CO2) als belangrijkste bestanddelen van de atmosfeer varieert, wat - ook dankzij metingen van het MIRO-instrument - terug te voeren is naar de samenstelling van het komeetoppervlak.
Inzake de bestanddelen van de atmosfeer stelde Rosina een massabereik van 18,98 tot 19,05 ame vast, met dus een gemiddelde van zowat 19. Dit is onder andere terug te voeren tot HDO (deuterium), een zwaardere vorm van water. Maar gezien het H2O van onze oceanen dominant aanwezig is bij een massa van 18 ame kan het dus niet dat (alleen maar) kometen water naar de Aarde hebben gebracht, zo luidt een uiterst belangrijke conclusie van het onderzoek van 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko.
Voorts is voor het eerst de acceleratie van het ïoniseren (elektrisch geladen maken) van de neutrale gassen gemeten.
De uitgestoten stofdeeltjes zijn blijkbaar maar een losse aggregatie. Overigens is ook de komeetkern maar een losse samenhang van materiaal, met een dichtheid van 1/2 gram per kubieke centimeter. Maar verbazend genoeg lijkt er ook stof in de buurt te blijven en lijkt het zelfs rond de nucleus te draaien.
Sommige wetenschappers zitten dankzij Rosetta met de handen in het haar, want er blijkt een breuk of barst tussen de twee delen te zijn. Wat dit is en of dit nog evolueert, is niet geweten.

UFO neergestort in Canada? ( update+ video )
UFO neergestort in Canada? ( update+ video )
De internationale UFO gemeenschap is in rep en roer vanwege een mogelijk neergestorte UFO in een bevroren meer in Canada.
Het leger zou zijn uitgerukt, toegangswegen afgesloten en diverse getuigen melden dat ze een schijfvormig object hebben gezien.
Update: 27 februari 2015
We zijn nu enkele dagen verder na de vermeende crash van een UFO in het Canadese Lake Winnipeg.
We ontvingen een aantal reacties, waarvan de volgende heel interessant is omdat er op meerdere plaatsen diezelfde avond vreemde lichten zijn waargenomen.
Met enige verbazing de zogenaamde verklaringen gelezen van het Amerikaanse leger over de ufo.
Het word nog interessanter: in 10 staten, van Arizona tot Alberta word dezelfde nacht ook een vreemd licht gezien. Ook met foto's erbij.
De verklaring was: een ruimtesonde van China teruggekomen en uiteengevallen, EN een neergestorte meteoriet.. Vijf foto's, waarvan op de laatste inderdaad een meteoriet (groen) te zien is.
Maar hoe geloofwaardig is het dat in EEN nacht
1-een meteoriet neerstort 2- een ruimtesonde neerstort 3-het leger oefende met een vliegtuig op een plek waar later 'iets' is neergestort??
Allemaal komen ze uit om en nabij dezelfde richting! Lijkt er meer op dat gezien de enorme aantallen mensen die iets zagen ze niet de waarheid willen vertellen.
Na wat navraag te hebben gedaan stond de ISS Live Stream ook op blauw scherm toen. Geen idee waar die op dat moment vloog, maar dat lijkt bijna niet meer toeval te noemen allemaal.. Ook vreemd is dat er bijna niks over vermeld word op andere sites/kranten/tv's.. Wat denken jullie??
Navolgend een voorbeeld van wat sommige mensen in de lucht zagen.
Volgens een andere lezer zou de foto die hierna volgt de bewuste opname zijn die men uit alle macht probeert te onderdrukken:
Dan is er nog de volgende video waarvan iemand zegt dat de neerstortende UFO is gefilmd door een getuige. Dit is te zien op ongeveer een minuut in de video.
We zijn uiteindelijk nog niet veel wijzer geworden, behalve dat de lichten op meerdere plaatsen zijn waargenomen.
Het probleem blijft dat het aangeboden materiaal niet op echtheid kan worden geverifiëerd.
We blijven optimistisch en hopen dat er alsnog een aantal getuigen die na te trekken zijn naar voren komen.
Origineel artikel: 24 februari 2015
Vorige week woensdagavond circuleerden er allerlei berichten op de sociale media dat er vreemde lichten (UFO) waren waargenomen boven Lake Winnipeg in Canada.
Even later veranderden die berichten in dat er een schijfvormige UFO was neergestort in het bevroren meer en dat het leger ter plaatste was om de bergingsoperatie uit te voeren.
Vervolgens zijn er dan allerlei verwarrende berichten van getuigen die dingen zouden hebben gezien.
Hier komt direct het probleem om de hoek kijken. Onmiddellijk duiken namelijk de firma’s die veel geld verdienen met het maken van nepvideo’s zoals de beruchte Blake Cousins van Third Phase of the Moon op dit verhaal en komen met allerlei verhalen en getuigenverklaringen.
Onderstaande is ook weer zo’n foto gemaakt door “een getuige”, maar er bestaat geen enkele zekerheid over de echtheid ervan.
Maargoed, als we dat soort dingen terzijde schuiven dan blijft er nog steeds een interessant verhaal over.
Het Canadese leger komt met een vage verklaring dat ze daar net “toevallig” aan het oefenen waren. Dit is het meest gebruikte excuus van overheden en defensie wanneer er sprake is van UFO-activiteit.
Ook een wel heel merkwaardige verklaring van Luitenant-Colonel Paul Davies, leider van het team van het Canadese leger dat eveneens “toevallig” oefende op het hulp bieden nadat een vliegtuig was neergestort.
Davies vertelde dat het vreemde licht dat mensen hadden gezien afkomstig was van een vliegtuig dat meedeed aan de oefening en dat in staat is om bijna verticaal op te stijgen.
“Daarom lijkt het alsof het licht recht de lucht ingaat, maar dat is niet zo”. Het vreemde is dat geen van de mensen die de lichten meldden iets gezegd hebben over dat ze recht de lucht in gingen. Men had het over een licht dat zichtbaar was en vervolgens leek neer te storten.
Kortom, het lijkt erop dat er inderdaad iets merkwaardigs is gebeurd in Canada.
Echter, met al die nepbedrijven die bewust kletsverhalen rondstrooien, wordt het er niet gemakkelijker op om de waarheid boven tafel te krijgen.
Waarschijnlijk is even rustig afwachten de beste strategie en dan hopen dat er echte, betrouwbare getuigen naarvoren komen die kunnen worden geïdentificeerd.
The reporting witness was 9 years old at the time she saw a black, vertical, rectangle hovering above, just south of where she and her cousin stood. Pictured: Markham, Ontario, Canada. (Credit: Google)
A Canadian witness at Markham, Ontario, recalled a daylight sighting from the spring of 1987 where an object described as a “black door” hovered in the sky, according to testimony in Case 63531 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The reporting witness was a 9-year-old in 1987 playing with her cousin in a field behind her home during daylight hours with a clear sky.
“I looked up at the sky and saw a black, vertical, rectangle hovering above, just south of where we stood,” the witness stated. “I remember looking over at my cousin who was also staring at it and asked her if she saw it too. She said yes.”
The witness described the object.
“We both thought it looked like a black door or doorway. We stared at it for several minutes waiting to see what would happen. It barely moved, although it did appear to be shaking or vibrating slightly.”

The witnesses’ mother called from their backyard asking the kids to come inside for dinner.
“We left the field and the ‘black door’ and went back to my house. We never discussed it with my parents and I’ve never seen anything like it since.”
The witness is hoping someone has a similar incident to share.
“The reason why I decided to share my story is because I want to know if anyone else has a similar story to mine or can shed some light on what we saw. Recently I asked my cousin if she remembered what we saw in the field behind my house when we were kids. She responded immediately saying, ‘Do you mean the door in the sky? I’ll never forget it!’”
The witness said the black rectangle was hovering between 75-100 yards above the ground.

Markham is a city in the Regional Municipality of York, lies within the Greater Toronto Area of Southern Ontario, Canada, population 301,709.

UFO Sightings and Videos: Are They Fake or Genuine?
UFO Sightings and Videos: Are They Fake or Genuine?
Extraterrestrials have been identified through strange shadows in the sky, flying saucers, or even unusual marks left on fields. Countless of UFO sightings have been reported by different individuals around the world over the years. Unidentified flying objects or UFOs have been involved in many conspiracies and controversies. Nobody can actually prove how true they are since nearly all traces disappear throughout the course of history. While many would find UFO and alien stories true, many others are still in doubt. So, how will you know if you see something extraordinary? Here are some incidences that will serve as your reference.
McMinnville UFO (Oregon)
A UFO appeared on the lens of the camera from an Oregon farmer couple in May 1950. According to wife Evelyn Trent, she first saw the object before it sped off out of their view. Evelyn described the object as a silvery, metallic disk.
Most UFO sightings happened near US Air Force bases, so it has been many times mentioned in UFO sighting reports. Perhaps, the most popular until today is still the Edward’s Air Force Base Sighting. An astronaut, at the same time a test pilot, filmed a classic saucer. The UFO was a silver and a smooth saucer that was approximately 30 feet in diameter. It had 3 legs that believed to be a landing gear. However, as the witness was about to submit the photo, it apparently disappeared.
A group of friends claimed they saw glowing, diamond shaped object that was about the size of a water tower blocking their way. Known as the Piney Woods Sighting, it brought emotional, mental and physical trauma to the group due to chemical poisoning in the area. They claimed to have seen helicopters escorting the UFO away from them.
Some have attributed these incidences to government conspiracy, but nobody knows what these occurrences tell, and one can only guess.
An unknown radio signal, which may have come from a black hole, colliding neutron stars (or – for those who ‘believe’ – alien life), has been picked up by astronomers live for the first time ever. Its origins remain mysterious.
The fast radio bursts are quick, bright flashes of radio waves that last only milliseconds, but still emit as much energy as the sun in an entire day.
This is the first time that these radio waves have been spotted live. The first burst was picked up in 2007 by sifting through old data at the Parkes Radio Telescope in Eastern Australia. Only seven others have been seen since then.
This time, the mysterious waves were picked with the use of 12 telescopes in Australia, Chile, Germany, Hawaii, India, California and the Canary Islands.
Because they observed the radio waves in real time, they were also able to try and find other wavelengths, like x-rays or infrared to find out their source…but remained unable to find anything.
“The fact that we did not see light in other wavelengths eliminates a number of astronomical phenomena that are associated with violent events such as gamma-ray bursts from exploding stars and supernovae, which were otherwise candidates for the burst,” Daniele Malesani, of the University of Copenhagen, told Astronomy Magazine.
The radio waves were polarized, which suggests that they were near an object with a large magnetic field.
“The theories are now that the radio wave burst might be linked to a very compact type of object – such as neutron stars or black holes – and the bursts could be connected to collisions or ‘star quakes,’ he added.
The radio signals originated up to 5.5 billion light-years away, from outside our Milky Way Galaxy and that they were caught by astronomers possibly up to a decade after they happened.
The catch took place in May 2014, but the results of the study got published this week in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.
No one knows where exactly such waves come from, or what causes them. Astronomers have postulated that the mysterious signals might be emitted by exploding stars or supernovas; a collision of binary neutron stars or binary white dwarf star could also be a source.
One more possible reason could be a blitzar – a supermassive neutron star that should have become a black hole, but is spinning so fast that it is temporarily prevented from collapsing.
“We found out what it wasn’t. The burst could have hurled out as much energy in a few milliseconds as the Sun does in an entire day. But the fact that we did not see light in other wavelengths eliminates a number of astronomical phenomena that are associated with violent events such as gamma-ray bursts from exploding stars and supernovae, which were otherwise candidates for the burst,” Malesani said.
Having set “the trap,” the team is now waiting to catch another burst and maybe get some answers to the mystery.
There are a number of things that come to mind when I posted this article. Could these radio waves be coming from an intelligent life form? Is it possible that they’re being emitted from Saturn (aka Satan in astrotheology)? Do they have anything to do with the collapse of the matrix? Are they possibly distress signals from the ongoing Orion Wars, signifying an end to universal tyranny?
One thing we can be sure of is that science çand the mainstream media will write this off as “nothing to see here”.
Humans should start sending messages to planets in habitable zones in the hope that alien life-forms might hear us, scientists have said.
Space experts at the Search for Extra Terrestrial Life (SETI) project said the time has come to stop passively listening for signs of intelligence in other worlds and actively start seeking contact.
Kepler Space Telescope captured tens of thousands of stars in the constellation of Cygnus and Lyra
SETI was founded 20 years ago to monitor the cosmos for signals of alien life and involves astrophysicists from institutions like Harvard University and the University of California. However as early 1960 scientists were scanning space for clues to other civilizations.
Douglas Vakoch, the Director of Interstellar Message Composition at the SETI Institute, said we should now start devising a message to send to planets which have recently been discovered in the "goldilocks zone" – areas of space where it is neither too hot nor too cold for life to exist.
Kepler-186f, the first validated Earth-size planet to orbit a distant star in the habitable zone
"For over a half century, scientists engaged in the search for extraterrestrial intelligence have sought evidence of the existence of other civilizations by searching for intentional radio signals," he said
"As we move into the next half century we should expand our strategies, so we are not only passively listening, but also transmitting intentional, information-rich signals.
"With recent detections of Earth-like planets in the habitable zones of other stars, we have natural targets for such transmission projects.
"We should repeatedly target a set of nearby stars over the course of several months or years.”
The Kepler Telescope
NASA’s Kepler Telescope has so far found more than 3,800 planets in habitable zones which could hold liquid water, and life. Experts say targeting them with a signal is the best hope of making contact with new worlds.
However the content of a message has been hotly debated. To find out what humans would like to say to aliens, SETI founded a site called Earth Speaks and asked people to devise an interstellar message.
The smallest-ever planet outside our solar system has been spotted by NASA's Kepler space telescope - a rocky planet similar in size to the Earth
While women tended to offer friendship, and even coffee and biscuits in their missives, men were more likely to talk about science and inquire about their civilisation. Overall the main theme was asking for help from aliens rather than seeking to impart the wisdom of Earth.
Mr Vakoch said humans have a "cosmic inferiority complex" and automatically assume that extra-terrestrials will be more technologically advanced than us and so have nothing to learn.
But he added: "Humankind has a range of experiences and insights that cannot be imagined by any other civilization.
"Though extraterrestrials may be more technologically advanced we are, they will never be more human. It’s the breadth of our human experience that we should be conveying in our interstellar messages."
The experts at SETI say that governments must start working together to devise the message. The equipment to send basic messages already exists and scientists say that reluctance ‘more political than technical.’
Seth Shostak, Senior Astronomer and Director, Center for SETI research, said some people resisted the approach, fearing it could alert our presence to dangerous extra-terrestrial races.
"It’s very controversial,” he said, “There are some people who think this might be dangerous.
"The idea that you are somehow endangering Earth I don’t think holds any water because we have been broadcasting into space willy nilly since the Second World War – televisions, FM radio and radar.
"These signals have been going into space for 70-somethng years so they are quite far out and any society that could come to Earth and incinerate Belgium, if they think they deserve it, is fully capable of picking up these broadcasts.”
But he admits that it is a gamble whether visiting aliens will come in peace.
“Nobody knows if they are friendly or not,” he added.
“You could be optimistic and think they are all friendly or figure they are like ones in the movies and hellbent on destruction. I suspect there is a whole range.
“Earth has been sitting around for 4 billion years with life on it and nobody’s thought to destroy it.
“It may be they want to proseltyse. The other thing is that they are just interested in the culture – that’s what’s special about us. Maybe they are interested in rock ‘n’ roll. Maybe they want Cliff Richard.”
However American scientist and futurist David Brin believes it is a mistake to try and contact alien worlds.
"We are the youngest of all technological races in the cosmos, like an orphan child who suddenly finds herself wandering a strange jungle that’s quiet, too quiet,” he said.
"Perhaps you have the kind of personality that says: "What the heck! I might as well shout and see what happens!"
"That’s all very well if the only one you are putting at risk is yourself. But when that risk is also imposed upon our children -- all of humanity and our planet – is it too much to ask that we discuss it first?"
The scientists were speaking at the annual Association for the Advancement of Science AAAS annual conference in San Jose.
Well...here we go again. Another round of pleas that our government disclose what they know about UFOs and extraterrestrial life. The political parties have started the process of whittling down their nominees for president...thus, the question of disclosure becomes a part of the rhetoric.
But, of course, some of us realize that it will never happen. Better stated, a true disclosure will never be offered to the public...unless it become so obvious that there really are non-terrestrial beings and advanced interstellar craft. Then an announcement of some kind may be forthcoming.
I found the following article this morning:
Push is on for 'comprehensive' extraterrestrial hearings on Capitol Hill
We’ve recently seen a drone crash a congressional hearing on drones, but what would happen if there was a hearing on extraterrestrial life?
Stephen Bassett, executive director of Paradigm Research Group and founder of the Extraterrestrial Phenomena Political Action Committee would like to find out.
While he’s pushed for congressional hearings on the topic in the past, Bassett is launching a new effort to overcome the “truth embargo” about the government’s involvement with alien life forms.
It comes in the form of “The Congressional Hearings Initiative.”
“Once this evidence is properly looked at, the way it should be, any reasonable person will come to the same conclusion,” Bassett told Roll Call.
Bassett is flooding approximately 180 members of Congress with meeting requests.
And if Basset gets his way, he doesn’t just want some skimpy meeting done for show.
“The goal is to get one of the committees to commit for comprehensive hearings,” Basset said. “Not three witnesses, come up [to] the Hill for half a day and give ’em a spiel. I’m talking about 25, 30, 35 witnesses, at least, testifying over a week, two weeks if possible. The reason is we’ve got those witnesses and the issue is not an issue that you can dispense with something trivial.”
Two people Bassett should get in his corner: John Podesta, President Barack Obama’s counselor, and former President Bill Clinton.
Considering Podesta’s comments that his “biggest failure” was not securing the disclosure of UFO files, it’s a natural fit.
And as far as Clinton, he did once tell Jimmy Kimmel that maybe the only way to united the world would be with an alien invasion.
So really, a congressional hearing on extraterrestrial life could also double as a world peace hearing.- Sun Times
So now we should have a former U.S. President and former White House insider 'helping' to find the truth. Mmm...are we to believe that President Clinton never reviewed any information pertaining to UFOs and alien beings while he was in office? The same question goes to John Podesta. Why didn't they make the effort to disclose the information at that time? Yeah, that's right...they wouldn't have dared chance it. I'm sorry that I seem cynical...but this shell-game, in my mind, is absurd.
During the 36th annual Kennedy Center Honors in 2013, President Barack Obama joked that he was making history for going where no president had gone before.
While honoring Oscar-winning actress Shirley MacLaine, who claims she has seen UFOs before, including "a mothership", Obama mentioned Area 51, a secret military installation north of Las Vegas that many in ufology believe is home to crashed flying saucers and alien bodies.
"Now, when you first become President, one of the questions that people ask you is, 'what's really going on in Area 51?'" Obama said. "When I wanted to know, I'd call Shirley MacLaine."
"I think I just became the first President to ever publicly mention Area 51," Obama added. "How's that, Shirley?"
I want to state that I truly believe that it is rational to assume that non-terrestrial beings exist and that these beings, in some capacity, may currently inhabit this planet. I have interviewed many experiencers and have seen some incredible evidence as an investigator. I'm totally convinced that humanity is being observed and manipulated by these highly advanced species...a process that has continued for millennia. There has been speculation that our species is a hybrid of human and alien DNA. This may very well be true but it has yet to be to be confirmed scientifically. Then again, our DNA strain may be so ancient that distinct human and alien genes may be impossible to isolate. Nevertheless, this is not what I want to write about at this time.
Since the 1950’s, Hollywood has been producing movies that deal with UFOs and alien beings. Most of the early films were full of hokey costumed creatures, tinfoil covered spacecraft and ridiculous story lines. On the other hand, we were given the impression that these aliens were either malevolent or were here to make sure the human species did not destroy itself.
Eventually, these B-movies science fiction thrillers evolved into high priced, computer enhanced mega productions that garnered millions of fans (ex. ‘Star Wars', ‘Close Encounters of the Third Kind”, etc.). Technology provided instant gratification with the ability for anyone to pop in a tape, then later a DVD, into the player at their convenience. We just sit back, relax and watch in high definition (and sometimes in 3D) wondrous interstellar craft and amazing alien beings interact with our species, either in the present time or long into the future. The plots and stories are a multiplicity of good vs. evil...and everything in between.
Yes...I fell into the same trap. My interest in the UFO and extraterrestrial phenomenon was exacerbated by Hollywood’s magic and the ability to make me wonder if what they portrayed may actually be close to the truth. Whether we are just being entertained or witnessing a primer for what we can expect is the real question. In other words, are we being conditioned...programmed, brainwashed or however you want to phrase it. Are we being made ready for the inevitable?
In the summer of 1996, Twentieth Century Fox released the film Independence Day It projected the tale of an alien mothership with a mass one-fourth of that of the Moon, that entered Earth’s orbit and deployed several dozen saucer-shaped destroyer spacecraft. Each of these craft are 15 miles in width and positioned over some of Earth's major cities. These destroyer craft coordinate and eventually deploy a WMD capable of leveling large cities, as well as dispatching the inhabitants. The U.S. President and most of his Cabinet reach safety at Area 51 where they discover that the aliens had visited Earth previously. Three dead aliens, as well as a complete attack craft, had been recovered and were stored underground. At the end of the day, which happened to be July 4th, the humans figure out how to destroy the aliens worldwide and ultimately become independent again.
‘Independence Day’ was written/directed by Ronald Emmerich and written/produced Don Devlin, the same pair who had previously created the film Stargate Not only did ‘Independence Day’ rejuvenate the science fiction genre in films but visually introduced us to alien forces plotting a strategic and tangible invasion against earth.
In today’s ufology, it’s my opinion that a majority of witness comments and theories, certainly the most well-known accounts, are usually based on film narratives produced in the 90’s and beyond. There are popular notions that predate this period, namely famous UFO crashes and retrievals. But after some analysis it seems the bulk of the modern UFO lore can be traced to the last two decades, as well as to a handful of individuals.
I’m not implying that the UFO and extraterrestrial phenomenon is somehow a myth. As I stated earlier, I believe there are beings of equal or higher intelligence that not only travel to this planet or dimension, but may also inhabit it as well. On the other hand, these beings and their appearance, mannerisms and mode of transportation are most likely not the same as our popular culture describes them. I’ll admit that I am as guilty as others in using some of these popular descriptions when I post on my blog, though I try to avoid it as much as possible.
We can debate the arguments for disclosure and if the world is ready for that reality, but at the end of the day, those arguments are still based on assumptions that still lack credible evidence. Even if there was some evidence that supported the theories that the government had intimate knowledge of alien beings, disclosing the existence or visitation to our planet of non-human entities would certainly qualify as a ‘world after’ event (ex. ‘world after 9/11’). I think the government knows more about UFOs and alien beings than it publicly acknowledges, but that doesn't necessarily mean they are covering up secret agreements, underground bases, genetic hybridization or any knowledge of where extraterrestrials come from.
Those people who are interested and involved in the study of UFOs and extraterrestrials need to look at the logical evidence that is provided and not compare it to the computer generated flash and stories used for entertainment. As well, an absolute need for disclosure serves only as security for our conscience. Real disclosure will not be on human terms. Disclosure will be on their terms, the non-terrestrials, whether we can accept that or not...Lon
For all UFO enthusiast and UFOologists alike, today is the 73rd anniversary of the Battle Of Los Angeles otherwise known as The Great LA Air raid, which has gone down history as the most mysterious events of World War II.
Back in 1942 on this very day, Los Angeles was panic stricken by an invasion of what was believed to be a Japanese aircraft hovering over the city. The US army reacted by firing 1400 shells into the skies but to no avail, no aircraft was ever recovered.
Nobody really knew what they had just seen, there was no evidence of downed craft, there where some explanations that centred around weather balloons, but that would have been feasible if there had been material of that kind recovered.
The other explanation was that it could well have been ships of extraterrestrial origin. In the original Times photograph, the picture show glowing round spheres hovering int he night sky, the incident ignited the Americas first ever UFO sighting by mass public eyes, and this was even before the 1947 Roswell crash.
Nick Pope, Ex employee British Government's Ministry of Defence told Neon Nettle: "Believers think this was nothing short of an alien invasion, while skeptics say it was a combination of mass hysteria and war nerves, with people shooting at balloons. Whatever the truth, it shows that people can and do see and film UFOs not just in remote areas, but over major cities".
Amazingly, since the sighting all those years back, there is still no rational explanation. To mark the anniversary, the UFO world have been treated to a trailer for the UFO Diary today. The Full version of UFO Diary is set to be released soon and will feature special effects from Antony Vannapho (The Twilight Saga), Kiel Figgins (Avengers: Age of Ultron) Sean Dollins (Prometheus), Rini Sugianto (The Hunger Games), Delano Athias (Polis), Bren Wilson (Paradise Lost) and many others.
The question still remains, however, did a UFO(s) really hover above Los Angeles all those years ago? Its is something to think about.

The 1947 Kenneth Arnold UFO Sighting
The 1947 Kenneth Arnold UFO Sighting
Date: June 24, 1947 Location: Near Mt. Rainier, Washington, United States
The modern phenomena of UFOs and “flying saucers” began in Washington state on June 24, 1947, when Kenneth Arnold spotted nine mysterious, high-speed objects “flying like a saucer would” along the crest of the Cascade Range near Mount Rainier. His report made international headlines and triggered hundreds of similar accounts of “flying saucers” locally and across the nation.

Edward Ruppelt, The Report on Unidentified Flying Objects
Although a formal project for UFO investigation wasn't set up until September 1947, the Air Force had been vitally interested in UFO reports ever since June 24, 1947, the day Kenneth Arnold made the original UFO report.
You will not find any conventional history book that even so much as mentions that on this date the human race first became aware of a phenomenon that could well be the most important discovery of the last century, or even in the history of mankind: the presence of "Other Intelligences" (Non-Human Intelligence). This document, the "ultimate Arnold" history and analysis, is an edited and updated version of my presentation at the 1997 MUFON Symposium.
The following story of what I observed over the Cascade mountains, as impossible as it may seem, is positively true. I never asked nor wanted any notoriety for just accidentally being in the right spot at the right time to observe what I did. R
In the Skeptics UFO Newsletter (SKUFON), #46 of July 1997 Philip Klass has proposed, in conjunction with Keay Davidson, a new explanation for the flying saucer sighting by Kenneth Arnold. One wonders why it took 50 years for this explanation to be proposed. R
The June 24, 1947 sighting by private pilot Kenneth Arnold was not really the first recorded UFO sighting. However, it was the first sighting to be publicly reported and it attracted worldwide interest. It also attracted many more than its share of explanations.
Almost three years after the famous June 24, 1947 sighting in the Cascades of the state of Washington, Edward R. Murrow engaged the pilot/witness Kenneth Arnold in a conversation about his historic experience. Portions of that conversation are reproduced here in an exact transcript of the broadcast as it was heard nationwide on the evening of April 7, 1950.
The 50th anniversary of the flying saucer phenomenon is upon us, and thoughts time-warp back to the case that started it all, Kenneth Arnold's sighting of nine objects speeding by Mount Rainier on a sunny June afternoon. R
Funny how your life can get turned upside down just because you see something. Kenneth Arnold's story is the story of a pretty straight guy. He was an Eagle Scout when he was a teen-ager. He worked for the Red Cross. He was an All-State football player in high school, with hopes of being a college star until a knee injury cut his football career short.
After college, Arnold became a salesman and learned to fly, combining the two by flying from small town to small town selling fire control equipment, eventually owning the Great Western Fire Control Supply Company. He was a member of the Sheriff's "aerial posse"of Ada County, Idaho, he was a relief U.S. Marshall, and he sometimes flew prisoners to the Federal Penitentiary. Flying his light plane, a Callair, was the basis of his livelihood.
In other words, he was the perfect UFO witness: a solid citizen, honest and trustworthy, married, with two daughters.
On June 24, 1947, he was returning home from a business trip when he made a detour into the Yakima, Washington area to help in an aerial search for a missing C-46 marine transport plane that was believed to have gone down in the area.
At around 3:00 in the afternoon, he was flying at about 9,000 feet, near Mount Rainier, when a flash of light caught his eye. He turned and saw a procession of nine very strange objects flying from north to south in front of his plane. They were flat and rather heel-shaped, very shiny, and they moved erratically, like a "saucer would if you skipped it across water." You can see Arnold's drawing of what he saw here. Arnold estimated their size at about two-thirds that of a DC-4, and he calculated their speed at over 1500 mph by timing their travel between two mountain peaks of known distance.
When he arrived at Yakima, Washington, Arnold told several other pilots about his sighting. The consensus among them was that it was some type of military "secret weapon". However, Arnold would later find that the U.S. military was as mystified by the objects as he himself was.
In Pendleton, Oregon, Arnold went to make a report to the FBI, but the local office was closed, so he talked to the editor of the East Oregonian newspaper instead and it was the editor who put the story on the newswires. Because of Arnold's background and reliability as a witness, the story got wide circulation. Here's Arnold's report in his own words.
What did Arnold see? Skeptics said everything from clouds to blowing snow on the mountain, to droplets of water on his airplane window. Here Martin Kottmeter shoots down some of the early theories of what Arnold saw. More recent explanations include Phil Klass' meteorite fragments and James Easton's white pelicans.
The June sighting and the resulting hoopla were not the end of Arnold's association with UFOs. On July 5th, 1947, Arnold was introduced to Captain E. J. Smith, who, along with his co-pilot and a stewardess, had seen a formation of UFOs over Emmett, Idaho. They hit it off well and became good friends.
In the middle of July, Arnold received a letter from Raymond Palmer, editor of the pulp magazine Amazing Stories. Arnold didn't know who Palmer was, since he didn't read the pulps. Palmer wanted Arnold to write down his experiences for publication in the magazine and he offered to pay. Arnold didn't particularly care about the money and sent Palmer a copy of what he had already told the newspapers and the Army Air Corps.
Later in July, a couple of Army Air Force intelligence officers named Lt. Frank M. Brown and Capt. William Davidson had a friendly meeting with Arnold. He gave them an account of his sighting and they asked him to report any further incidents to them. Lt. Brown filed a report giving his impression of Arnold's story. Arnold, Smith, Brown, Davidson, and Palmer were later to become involved in the Maury Island hoax.

The Hudson Valley Boomerang Sightings
The Hudson Valley Boomerang Sightings
Date: , 1981 Location: Hudson Valley, New York, United States
Between 1982 and 1995, more than seven thousand cases were investigated and documented by a team of investigators led by Philip J. Imbrogno, a high school science teacher and astronomer in Greenwich, Connecticut. The heaviest period was between the end of 1982 and 1986, when more than five thousand people reported seeing the object.

Summary: An overview of the Hudson Valley sightings by Bob Pratt, co-author of Night Siege (with J. Allen Hynek and Philip Imbrogno), one of the primary books on these sightings.
Huge triangular or V-shaped UFOs have been reported countless times throughout the world over the past thirty to forty years, with one of the most active areas being the Hudson River Valley just north of New York City.
Between 1982 and 1995, more than seven thousand cases were investigated and documented by a team of investigators led by Philip J. Imbrogno, a high school science teacher and astronomer in Greenwich, Connecticut.
The heaviest period was between the end of 1982 and 1986, when more than five thousand people reported seeing the object.
Sometimes called the “Westchester Boomerang” because some of the earliest reports came from Westchester County in New York State, it was huge and often flew close to the ground, so low that gray superstructure could be seen linking numerous multi-colored lights.
Numerous sightings were also reported in neighboring New York counties as well as in nearby Connecticut.
One awed witness, an IBM program manager, said: “If there is such a thing as a flying city, this was a flying city… It was huge.”
It was enormous, awesome and spectacular. It moved slowly and silently and was easily as big as a football field; some witnesses said as big as three football fields. That would make it anywhere from three hundred to nine hundred feet long, far larger than any aircraft manufactured in the world.
Thousands of people, many of them highly educated professionals, went on record as saying that the Boomerang was undeniably very real to them. The great majority of people interviewed had no previous interest in UFOs. They were taken completely by surprise.
FAA DENIED ANYTHING HAPPENED
Many witnesses were separated geographically and were unknown to each other at the time of the sightings. Police records show that countless residents phoned their local police stations in concern, and police officers themselves witnessed this strange spectacle.
From the nation's scientists, to whom these events should have been of breathtaking concern, nothing was heard.
Hundreds of people living in the affluent suburbs within commuting distance of one of the world's largest and most cosmopolitan cities were astonished, awestruck, and frightened by what they could only regard as a very bizarre event. But the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), which monitors the air lanes through which the boomerang-shaped object flew repeatedly, persisted in denying its existence.
There may have been more than one object because several times sighting reports came in about the same time from towns some distance apart.
Witnesses came from all walks of life, including housewives, office workers, aircraft designers, truck drivers, construction workers, nurses, doctors, pilots, engineers, bookkeepers, technicians and scientists. Many skeptical police officers changed their minds when they saw the Boomerang themselves.
Many times it hovered or moved ever so slowly. Once, a man was able to jog underneath and keep up with it. At times it hovered or drifted very slowly over major expressways, causing traffic to come to a confused halt.
At other times it moved with incredible speed. One husband and wife said it was six stories tall and that it shot off to the far horizon and immediately came back to the same spot in barely a second.
One night, a policewoman sitting in her cruiser watching for speeders was astonished to see a string of white lights in a half-circle hover over her vehicle for twenty seconds. She was so surprised that she never thought to aim her radar gun at it.
UFO FLASHES LIGHT AT CROWD
In another town on another night, a policeman responding to a phone call found ten people standing watching a circle of flashing red, blue and green lights hovering about five hundred feet overhead. The object appeared to be three hundred feet wide.
The officer turned his spotlight on it – and the object immediately projected a brilliant flash of white light down on him and the spectators. Seconds later it shot off out of sight.
On the night of July 24, 1984, twelve security guards watched as a boomerang-shaped object hovered for more than ten minutes directly above one of the reactors of the Indian Point nuclear power plant. This is located on the Hudson River at Buchanan, twenty miles north of Manhattan.
It was so large that one officer had to pan a security camera on the plant’s roof 180 degrees to take in the whole object. Inside the security console, the computer that controlled all the security and communication systems shut down.
The incident was so shocking that the commander contacted a nearby National Guard unit and asked that a helicopter be sent to shoot the object down. Before the action could be carried out, the UFO moved away. Later, authorities denied anything happened.
During the unusually long period of sightings and encounters, numerous witnesses reported having had contact with some kind of extraterrestrial intelligence. More than sixty people said they had had been abducted, with women between the ages of twenty five and thirty representing the largest number of cases.
Philip Imbrogno reported that among witnesses who said they’d had multiple contacts, a very high percentage had B-negative type blood, although what the significance of that is has not yet be determined.
MEDIA REMAINS LARGELY SILENT
Initially, it was thought the Boomerang was seen primarily in the half dozen counties of New York and Connecticut immediately north of New York City. But later it was learned that the object had visited a much larger area to the west, north and east.
Sightings tapered off after the heavy 1982-1986 period but have never stopped. They have continued sporadically ever since.
The United States has perhaps the most extensive, sophisticated and freest mass communications system in the world. Trivial events are often flashed everywhere. Yet, news of this astounding happening was carried on only one network.
The American media has remained largely silent about this spectacular phenomenon, either from ignorance or, more likely, on purpose. Area newspapers, radio and television stations did carry stories, but there was little in the way of national coverage.
The authorities, for the most part, were no help. Some police departments were sympathetic to witnesses and investigators and some weren’t. A few were outright antagonistic.
The FAA denied anything unusual was happening in the skies over the Hudson Valley, even though some air traffic controllers privately acknowledged tracking unknown objects on radar.
Some authorities tried to explain the sightings as simply small planes flying in formation – even at times when strong winds were blowing – and even ultra lights, which rarely fly at night because it is too dangerous and are almost impossible to fly in formation.
Many people believed the Boomerang was a spaceship from another world. Wedo not know. We can only speculate.
It definitely was not a secret weapon, nor a hologram, nor a formation of planes, helicopters or blimps, nor, we believe, anything else man-made. There is no conventional explanation for the Hudson Valley UFO.
These investigations are described in two books, NIGHT SIEGE: The Hudson Valley UFO Sightings (Ballantine, 1987) by Dr. J. Allen Hynek, Philip J. Imbrogno and Bob Pratt, NIGHT SIEGE Second Edition (Llewellyn, 1998), and CONTACT OF THE FIFTH KIND, by Philip J. Imbrogno and Marianne Horrigan (Llewellyn, 1997).

E.T. Encounters of the Human Kind with Richard Dolan
E.T. Encounters of the Human Kind with Richard Dolan
We’ve heard it many times – truth is stranger than fiction. But when trying to keep some semblance of normalcy and sanity in a world that continues to show us its more mysterious side, it might do us well to consider that truth includes a broad spectrum of experience, including possible interactions with human looking extraterrestrials.
Preeminent UFO researcher and historian Richard Dolan who’s painstaking research has culminated into several books, including UFOs and the National Security State, volumes 1 and 2 and A.D. – After Disclosure, took the time to depart from his “usual fare” and discuss some of the more perplexing and bizarre aspects to the UFO story. Except none of these incidents involve UFO’s per se, but rather E.T. encounters of the human kind.
During our “out of this world” conversation we discuss:
The bizarre nature of human looking E.T. encounters and the consistencies that exist throughout.
The telepathic link between these beings and those witnesses who can “hear” their thoughts.
The conspicuous though secretive nature of these beings.
Richard Dolan is one of the world’s leading researchers and writers on the subject of UFOs, and believes that they constitute the greatest mystery of our time.
He is the author of two volumes of history, UFOs and the National Security State, both ground-breaking works which together provide the most factually complete and accessible narrative of the UFO subject available anywhere. He also co-authored a speculative book about the future, A.D. After Disclosure, the first-ever analysis not only of how UFO secrecy might end, but of the all-important question: what happens next?
Richard’s latest work, UFOs for the 21st Century Mind, provides a fresh treatment of the entire subject. In it, he discusses the important sightings, the encounters, the politics, the cover-up, ancient aliens, the bizarre science, disclosure, and offers advice on being both critical and open-minded in today’s world. Like his previous three books, it asks fresh questions and offers new insights to further our understanding of the UFO mystery.
Richard hosts a weekly radio show, The Richard Dolan Show, on KGRA radio, is a frequent guest on Coast-to-Coast AM. He is currently featured on several television series and documentaries, including Ancient Aliens, Hangar One: The UFO Files and Close Encounters. For a longer list of his television appearances, see below.
Prior to his interest in UFOs, Richard completed his graduate work at the University of Rochester, where he studied U.S. Cold War strategy, European history, and international diplomacy. Before that, he had studied at Alfred University and Oxford University, and had been a finalist for a Rhodes scholarship.
But for the past two decades, Richard has been a dedicated student of all things related to UFOs, steadily expanding his interests within that topic from his initial focus on government documents and the cover-up. Now his interests include it all, from the deepest aspects of the coverup, to contact and abduction, the science behind the phenomenon, how the phenomenon has affected world culture, his theory of a breakaway civilization, the possible relationship of artificial intelligence and biotechnology to the UFO phenomenon, and the implications of the end of secrecy, that is, the world After Disclosure.
Today, there is no aspect of the phenomenon Richard won’t study. He continues to look forward to exploring this topic in all its depth, a topic he believes opens our doors of perception, challenging us to see the world differently and more clearly.
In addition to his research, Richard’s company, Richard Dolan Press, actively publishes innovative books by authors from around the world.

Astronomen hebben in de ruimte een ‘onmogelijk groot zwart gat’ ontdekt. Het is het grootste zwarte gat dat ooit in ons heelal werd aangetroffen.
Het zwarte gat is zo groot, dat de massa ervan even groot is als die van twaalf miljard zonnen samen. Ter vergelijking: onze eigen Melkweg heeft een zwart gat met een massa van ‘slechts’ vier miljoen zonmassa’s.
Zo’n groot zwart gat relatief kort na de oerknal kan volgens de theorieën die nu heersen over het ontstaan van het universum, niet verklaard worden. ‘Hoe kan zo’n massief zwart gat zich zo vroeg in de geschiedenis van het universum gevormd hebben, in ons piepjong heelal?’, vragen de onderzoekers zich af. Een internationaal onderzoeksteam, onder leiding van de Universiteit van Peking en de Universiteit van Arizona, probeert nu meer te weten te komen over het grote zwarte gat.
Evenveel licht als 420 biljoen zonnen
Het zwarte gat bevindt zich in het centrum van een quasar, een extreem heldere wolk materiaal die in een zwart gat aan het verdwijnen is. Door de warmte die vrijkomt van het materiaal dat zich naar het zwarte gaat beweegt, komt er een enorme hoeveelheid licht vrij. Met optische telescopen lijkt zo’n quasar op een ster, maar het bevindt zich eigenlijk op nog een veel grotere afstand van miljarden lichtjaren. Door die grote afstand en de eindige snelheid van het licht, zien wij zo’n quasars zoals ze er miljarden jaren geleden, toen het heelal nog jonger was, uitzagen.
‘Deze quasar is uniek’, zegt Xiaohui Fan van het onderzoeksteam. ‘Je kan het beschouwen als de helderste vuurtoren in het verre heelal. Het licht dat de quasar geeft, zal ons meer leren over het vroegere universum.’ De quasar geeft evenveel licht als 420 biljoen zonnen samen.
UFO mania: Does The US Government Have Fleets Of UFOs? - The Solar Warden Project
UFO mania: Does The US Government Have Fleets Of UFOs? - The Solar Warden Project
There are, and have been for some time, claims by UFO disclosure supporters that there is in existence a fleet or fleets of human spaceships charged with monitoring alien traffic throughout our solar system and even defending our solar system in the event of an extraterrestrial attack.
Perhaps this is science fiction or the result of an overactive imagination. But some have said they’ve seen evidence of this alleged project, commonly called “Solar Warden.”
If Solar Warden is indeed real, it would require advanced technology several generations ahead of what our military currently uses on the battlefield. Some speculate that backwards engineered alien technology is responsible for the rapid development of these types of systems.
Astronaut Dr. Edgar Mitchell, the sixth man to walk on the moon, is probably one of the most high-profile persons to have come forward regarding the existence of alien beings visiting Earth. He has addressed the topic in several interviews, saying there are indeed extraterrestrial civilizations beyond our solar system, they have indeed visited Earth, and the United States government may have collected and backwards engineered alien technology.
“I suspect that in the last 60 years or so, that there has been some back-engineering and the creation of this type of equipment, that is not nearly as sophisticated yet as what the apparent visitors have,” stated Dr. Mitchel during a Kerrang Radio interview on July 23, 2008.
In 2001, a hacker named Gary McKinnon used a series of clever techniques to hack several government computers, including and probably not limited to NASA and U.S. Navy computers. His original purpose for hacking U.S. computers was to seek out hidden data regarding the existence of free energy, or “zero-point” devices, he told Wired in a 2006 interview.
In his digital travels he allegedly uncovered an excel spreadsheet with a list of names and a heading of “non-terrestrial officers,” he told Wired.
Another document was listed as “fleet-to-fleet” transfers, according to a 2006 Project Camelot interview.
McKinnon was unable to cross reference the names with any U.S. Navy ships and believed these were off-world or “Space Marine,” type officers.
“If you look at DARPA [Defence Advanced Research and Projects Agency] literature at the moment and in the last few years it’s all about ‘space dominance,’ that is the final frontier,” McKinnon told Project Camelot. “So, I think it’s natural for them to want to control space and be developing a space-going force in secret, but I think most likely using technology reverse-engineered from E.T. [extraterrestrials].”
McKinnon told Wired he was in the process of viewing a UFO image on a NASA computer in Building 8 of the Johnson Space Center remotely when he was discovered. Some months later (in March 2002), authorities showed up on his doorstep in the U.K. Severe hacking charges were brought against him and he was facing about 70 years in prison and $2 million in fines.
But in the years following his discovery, the U.S. government extradition request stayed in limbo until it was eventually dropped. Project Camelot speculated that McKinnon was holding “ace-in-the-hole” information he gathered during his hacking journey that he may have held as leverage against his extradition. McKinnon wouldn’t comment on whether he had such information.
The name “Solar Warden” is a term that generically refers to the ultra-secret space fleet. It’s presently unclear where exactly the name originated. If the program does exist, it would require a tremendous amount of capital to construct its fleets.
Last year, the United States’ black budget for secret programs spanning dozens of agencies was $52.6 billion, according to the Washington Post. In 2011, the U.S. government spent approximately $718 billion more on national defense and international security. Of course, much of that went to fighting the war against terrorism.
However, if the government did decide to build a space fleet of exotic technology and design, the money could be utilized, especially if more than one nation is involved and funneling money into this program as postulated by some disclosure advocates.
Currently, the U.S. government’s various military branches all have their own space commands, such as the Air Force Space Command and the Navy’s Space and Naval Warfare System’s Command (SPAWAR). These departments have public websites and they help coordinate the military forces on the ground, in the air, and at sea. It is unclear if these departments may be linked with the so-called Solar Warden project, or if this alleged project would be separated into its own covert and isolated department.
They type of UFOs are seen little bit frequently over Earth. This particular shape has been recorded by astronauts. It looks like this as it enters the Earths atmosphere and then is will shoot out a probe from the front and sometimes many probes. They will sparkle like disco, three UFOs, balls ant then the giant trail we see will disappear until only the front of the glowing ship is there and it will disappear in the distance. Video UFOs here:
The discovery of a mysterious bright spot on Ceres has given rise to lots of speculation. And now we’ve learned something new: it has a friend. The second spot is not quite as bright, but still weirdly reflective compared to the rest of the dwarf planet. And one scientist has a possible explanation for both of these bright spots.
The bright spots are here revealed as two distinct features inside the crater. (Image enlarged and sepia colored)
From photographs taken on February 19, 2015 at 46,000 kilometers away (29,000 miles), Dawn can finally see that the mysterious bright spot on Ceres is in a basin, and has a smaller, dimmer companion. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/UCLA/MPS/DLR/IDA
The latest round of photographs was taken by Dawn on February 19, 2015 when the spacecraft was still 46,000 kilometers away (29,000 miles) from the dwarf planet. It reveals not just the bright spot that has been provoking speculation for years, but now the imaging resolution is getting good enough to spot a second smaller and dimmer bright spot apparently in the same basin as the main attraction.
Could the lights be patches of ice, welling up from the interior of the biggest asteroid or there are other forces at work inside the crater?
Even as we discover more about Ceres, some mysteries only deepen.
Er kwamen al heel wat vreemde opnames voorbij, maar de volgende die enkele dagen geleden werden gemaakt in het Russische Vladivostok, zijn wel heel bijzonder.
Het begint met een nieuwsbericht in de Russische media waarin wordt gemeld dat er druk wordt gesproken op de sociale netwerken over wel zeer vreemde wolkenformaties.
Uiteraard gaan de berichten op die sociale media vergezeld van de nodige foto’s, zoals de volgende:
De vreemde patronen in de lucht verschenen rond lunchtijd en veel mensen liepen naar buiten en probeerden de bizarre patronen in de lucht vast te leggen op video of foto. De algemene tendens is natuurlijk dat men een vliegtuig verantwoordelijk acht voor de formatie van dergelijke wolken/chemtrails.
Wanneer je echter de volgende video bekijkt dan zoek je het antwoord niet in vliegtuigen, maar eerder in UFO’s. Na ongeveer 40 seconden zie je als het ware een hele ketting ongedefiniëerde objecten één voor één zichtbaar worden.
UFO mania: NASA Secrets Revealed - Alien Ruins on the Moon
UFO mania: NASA Secrets Revealed - Alien Ruins on the Moon
The former manager of the Data and Photo Control Department at NASA’s Lunar Receiving Laboratory during the manned Apollo Lunar Program, Ken Johnston, has released quite a number of sensational statements recently in the USA.
The specialist said that U.S. astronauts found ancient ruins of artificial origin and a previously unknown technology to control gravitation when then landed on the Moon. Astronauts took pictures of the objects that they found, but NASAordered Johnston to destroy the images.
Johnston did not follow the order.
He said that the U.S. government had been keeping this information a secret for 40 years.
Johnston's startling Apollo allegations have recently appeared in a new book, "Dark Mission - the Secret History of NASA," co-authored by former NASA consultant and CBS Science Advisor, Richard C. Hoagland and Mike Bara, an aerospace engineering consultant.
According to Kay Ferrari, JPL Director of the SSA Program (in a phone call to Johnston last week), it was Johnston "being quoted [as] criticizing NASA in Hoagland's new book, 'Dark Mission,'" that prompted her to ask for Johnston's resignation from the SSA Program.
When Johnston refused, citing First Amendment protections of free speech afforded all NASA employees, even those at JPL, Ferrari apparently decided to remove him arbitrarily from the SSA Program this week without cause.
The low quality pictures included in the book depict ruins of buildings, huge dome-like objects made of glass, stone towers and castled hanging in the air.
“I have nothing to lose. I have quarreled with NASA and I got fired,” Ken Johnston said.
Indeed, NASA believes that allegations of the ancient civilization found on the Moon are not serious. The authors of the controversial book also say that President John F. Kennedy, who launched the lunar race with the Soviet Union, actually intended to share extraterrestrial technologies with Moscow. Making a speech at the United Nations Organizations in September of 1963, Kennedy supposedly offered the USSR to organize a joint mission to the Moon.
Richard Hoagland believes that Washington’s interest in the Moon exploration that suddenly appeared after 30 years of silence is based on the lunar findings that the U.S. government has been keeping a secret for 40 years. Russia, China, Japan and even India have publicly announced their plans to work on the exploration of the Moon. The USA, Hoagland said, wants to be the first at this point.
In December NASA announced plans to build an international base on one of the poles of the Moon. The base is to be finished by 2024. Russia’s booster rocket maker, Energia, has a more ambitious program: to build a permanent manned base on the Moon by 2015.
Russia says the base will be built to develop the industrial production of helium-3. U.S. specialists prefer not to say anything specific on the matter. To crown it all, China launched its first satellite to the Moon on October 24.
China also intends to launch a lunar base and an unmanned space probe to the Moon by 2010.

From an interview with Jacques Vallee by Jerome Clark (FATE magazine, 1978):
Vallee: I think that's exactly what we have to do with UFOs. We have to do something that will cause them to react. And I don't mean building landing strips in the desert and waiting out there to welcome the space brothers. Clark: But what do you mean? Vallee: I hesitate to be too specific. I'm speaking, as I'm sure you understand, of the attempted manipulation of UFO manifestations.
I know a little something about that subject. And I'm about to go out on a very long, creaky limb by telling this little story. In the past decade or so, the bizarre nexus of UFOs and the paranorma has emerged from the dustbin of Ufology, thanks to pioneers like Vallee, John Keel, and a rapidly growing group of researchers (see references at the end of this article). In some ways, the UFO/Occult nexus has become a cottage industry, and has occasionally broken through into the mainstream. But when my particular incident occurred, Ufology was primarily entrenched in the "nuts-and-bolts spaceships" extraterrestrial hypothesis (ETH) camp. But on with my particular piece of this puzzle.
In early September of 1990, I spend a few days at Ocean City, Maryland, a resort town on the Atlantic. I went to the beach with a few friends, and we passed the time making sand sculptures. Since I was reading a lot about UFOs at the time (it was the 90s, after all), I sculpted the head of a prototypical "gray" alien in the sand, with his arm raised above his head as if waving hello.
A couple of weeks later, I returned to Ocean City for the weekend. One evening, I had a very vivid dream about a television panel discussing UFOs. One expert was a Phil Klass styled skeptic/debunker, another was a Jacques Vallee-type, the third was a Stanton Friedman nuts-and-bolts ETH proponent, and the final panel member was a raving paranoid "the lizards in their underground bases are eating our children!" conspiratologist. The panelists bantered back and forth until the paranoid guy started ranting: "They're cooperating with the government! They're stealing our children and the government knows it! The Men in Black are demons!" The other panelists chuckled and rolled their eyes.
I awoke from the dream, disturbed. I seldom had dreams related to UFOs, and this one was particularly realistic. I found that my thoughts kept returning to the dream throughout the day. That evening, at approximately 7:30pm, I decided to take a walk on the beach with my girlfriend. It was a very clear, starry night, and we were the only two on the beach. My girlfriend walked along the surf, while I lingered away from the water. I looked down in the sand and saw what looked like a humanoid face sculpted in the sand, though part of it had been obliterated by footprints.
I remembered the alien head I had sculputed in the sand weeks before, miles from the spot on which I was standing. Just another synchronicity, I thought to myself.
I looked up into the starry night, thinking about my dream and the face in the sand. I said, mentally, If you're out there, now is the perfect time to show yourself. I guess part of me secretly wished something would appear, but I certainly did not expect anything to happen. I walked closer to the water and joined my girlfriend. A few minutes later, she pointed to the sky. "What are those?" she asked.
Two orange-red blobs of light were bobbing up and down next to each other far above us. When I looked at them, they shot off across the sky (over the ocean), flying erratically -- almost playfully, changing direction frequently. At one point, they merged, flying as one unit, then split apart again. We watched them, stunned, until they vanished on the horizon amidst the light pollution from Ocean City's boardwalk.
"Oh, my God," I said, over and over, as we followed them. I couldn't say anything else but "Oh, my God." I was simultaneously awed and frightened. When the lights disappeared, we both returned to the car and drove home, elated but also unnerved by what we had seen. I can only think of a couple of theories to explain what happened.
One is that I was part of a lucky train of coincidences, a chain of synchronicity -- sculpting a face of an alien in the sand, dreaming about the UFO panel, stumbling upon a similar face in the sand weeks later, asking for an appearance, and getting much more than I could have imagined.
The other possibility is much more intriguing, but raises all sorts of troubling questions. It suggests that UFOs are a multidimensional phenomena (bending time and space), that they interact with human consciousness on an intimate level, and that they can potentially be summoned. Far more frightening is the possibility that whatever it is, it observed, drew upon, or manipulated my consciousness, my dreams, and my perceptions leading up to the sighting.
If it wasn't for my girlfriend sighting the objects first, I would concede the possibility that it was a hallucination. She knew nothing of my silent request to show me something, and pointed out the objects before I saw them.
One of the foremost researchers into the fringes of Ufology is my friend who goes by the name of Blue Resonant Human, or Brother Blue. Although he dropped out of sight in the late 90s, his prodigious postings to USENET made him a Net celebrity, and his unconventional (and funny) writings made him the object of scorn of hardnosed skeptic and harebrained new ager alike. One of his missives is archived here. I will pull out some pertinent bits, but I strongly recommend reading the entire article.
Here he quotes Jacques Vallee:
There are certainly occult groups that claim they can invoke or evoke beings that do some of the things that UFO entities do. I've looked. I've contacted a number of those groups...
Robert Anton Wilson describes meeting Vallee in his excellent Cosmic Trigger:
"Where do you think they come from?" I asked.
Doctor Vallee gave the Gallic form of the classic scientific Not-Speculating-Beyond-The-Data head-shake. "I can theorize, and theorize, endlessly," he said, "but is it not better to just study the data more deeply and look for clues?"
"You must have some personal hunch," I insisted.
He gave in gracefully. "They relate to space-time in ways for which we have, at present, no concepts," he said. "They cannot explain to us because we are not ready to understand."
I asked Grady McMurty if Aleister Crowley had ever said anything to him implying the extraterrestrial theory which Kenneth Grant, Outer Head of another Ordo Templi Orientis, implies in his accounts of Crowley's contacts with Higher Intelligences.
"Some of the things Aleister said to me," Grady replied carefully, "could be interpreted as hints pointing that way." He went on to quote Crowley's aphorisms about various of the standard entities contacted by Magick. The Abramelin spirits, for instance, need to be watched carefully. "They bite," Aleister explained in his best deadpan am-I-kidding-or-not? style. The Enochian "angels," on the other hand, don't always have to be summoned. "When you're ready, they come for you," Aleister said flatly.
Crowley and LAM
Crowley also figures in one of the seminal (ahem) incidents in this murky, bizarre field. The most discussed episode is Crowley's alleged contact with an entity known as LAM (illustration above) as part of his "Amalantrah Working" -- an occult process designed to facilitate "the establishment of contact with non-human intelligences."
Instead of rehashing this story here, I will point the reader to this article. Googling Crowely and LAM will yield many variations of what is essentially the same account.
The concept of UFOs as egregores is also worthy of exploration. The following defintion is excerpted from Gaetan Delaforgem's article in Gnosis:
An egregore is a kind of group mind which is created when people consciously come together for a common purpose. Whenever people gather together to do something and egregore is formed, but unless an attempt is made to maintain it deliberately it will dissipate rather quickly. However if the people wish to maintain it and know the techniques of how to do so, the egregore will continue to grow in strength and can last for centuries.
An egregore has the characteristic of having an effectiveness greater than the mere sum of its individual members. It continuously interacts with its members, influencing them and being influenced by them. The interaction works positively by stimulating and assisting its members but only as long as they behave and act in line with its original aim. It will stimulate both individually and collectively all those faculties in the group which will permit the realization of the objectives of its original program. If this process is continued a long time the egregore will take on a kind of life of its own, and can become so strong that even if all its members should die, it would continue to exist on the inner dimensions and can be contacted even centuries later by a group of people prepared to live the lives of the original founders, particularly if they are willing to provide the initial input of energy to get it going again.
I offer this information as food for thought, not because I can assert that it is truth, or even partially true. But I cannot deny my own experience, which has convinced me that, at least in part, the UFO phenomenon interacts with humans on a psychic (i.e. non-physical) level -- the level of dreams, synchronicity, and consciousness.
Some references for those interested in pursuing this line of thought are listed below. Caveat emptor.
Marsjeep Curiosity heeft nieuwe boringen uitgevoerd op de rode planeet. Rood, zo heet Mars inderdaad te zijn. Maar wat blijkt? Dat onder die rode stoflaag de rotsachtige bodem eerder de grijze kleur heeft. Dat ontging uiteraard ook Chris Hadfield niet, de voormalige bevelhebber van het Internationaal Ruimtestation ISS.
Het gat dat we zien in bovenstaande foto is in wekelijkheid niet groter dan een muntstuk. Curiosity drilde het gisteren in de rotsformatie 'Telegraph Peak', de basislaag van Mount Sharp op Mars. Nieuwe driltechnieken van de Marsjeep zorgen ervoor dat de rots niet meer in stukken breekt.
Het beeld van NASA is eigenlijk samengesteld uit verscheidene foto's die vanuit verschillende gezichtshoeken werden genomen. NASA gaat het poederstaal uit de rots nu verder analyseren.
De Canadese ruimte-entertainer op rust, Chris Hadfield, verwoordde zijn zicht op het gat zo op Twitter: "Mars heeft grijze wortels onder zijn rosse kop".
SterrenkundeTwee mysterieuze lichtjes, of lichtgevende vlekken, op de dwergplaneet Ceres zijn bron van enige opwinding bij wetenschappers van de NASA. Nu de ruimtesonde Dawn stilaan Ceres nadert, krijgen wetenschappers beelden doorgestuurd waarvoor ze nog geen eenduidige verklaring hebben.
Plots bleek het te gaan over twee lichtjes: "Dit is echt onverwacht en nog altijd een mysterie voor ons"
Een dwergplaneet die eerst één grote lichtvlek, als een grote spot die de ruimte in schijnt, lijkt te hebben. Fascinerend toch? Nog spannender wordt het als die planeet vervolgens nog een tweede, iets zwakker lichtje herbergt, in de buurt van de grotere lichtvlek. Dat is vandaag de situatie met Ceres, een dwergplaneet die op gemiddeld zo'n 428 miljoen kilometer van de aarde rond de zon draait.
Nu de NASA-ruimtesonde Dawn Ceres langzaam maar zeker begint te naderen - op 6 maart moet de sonde eindelijk vlakbij zijn - krijgen de wetenschappers van het Amerikaanse ruimteagentschap die opmerkelijke beelden doorgestuurd. En een verklaring hebben ze er nog altijd niet voor.
Het eerste mysterieuze lichtje werd al eerder opgemerkt. Maar vorige week nam Dawn een nieuwe foto van dezelfde zijde van Ceres, van op een afstand van ongeveer 46.000 kilometer. Plots bleek het te gaan over twee lichtjes. "Dit is echt onverwacht en nog altijd een mysterie voor ons", vertelt Andreas Nathues van het Max Planck-instituut in het Duitse Göttingen, die zich over de camera van Dawn ontfermt. "De felste vlek van beide blijkt te klein om haar met de camera te verklaren. Maar ondanks haar omvang is ze feller dan eender wat op Ceres."
Hoe verleidelijk het beeld van groene mannetjes met zaklampen ook is, wetenschappers denken eerder in de richting van bepaalde geologische structuren. Mogelijk gaat het om ijs. Niet zo ondenkbeeldig, aangezien wetenschappers al eerder waterdamp opmerkten in de buurt van het oppervlak van Ceres en ze ervan uitgaan dat het oppervlak van Ceres uit een mengsel van ijs en gesteente bestaat. Ook een grote zoutvlakte, die licht weerkaatst, is een optie. Chris Russell, hoofdonderzoeker van de Dawn-missie suggereert echter een "vulkanische oorsprong", aangezien de twee vlekken in hetzelfde dal liggen. Toch zou lava een pak meer licht moeten geven, dus wordt gedacht in de richting van ijsvulkanen.
Om het eensluidend antwoord te krijgen, zit er niks anders op dan geduld te oefenen. Volgende week belandt Dawn in de ideale positie om de komende 16 maanden gedetailleerde beelden van Ceres door te sturen. De ruimtesonde is intussen al een kleine 8 acht jaar onderweg. In 2011 en 2012 bezocht de sonde al de planetoïde Vesta. Het eigenlijke doel van het bezoek aan beide protoplaneten is om meer te weten te komen over het ontstaan van het zonnestelsel.

Strange lights on dwarf planet Ceres have scientists perplexed
Strange lights on dwarf planet Ceres have scientists perplexed
by Chris Taylor
Two strange reflective patches spotted on Ceres.
A dwarf planet is shining two bright lights at a NASA spacecraft right now, and our smartest scientists are unsure what they are.
As bizarre as that sentence sounds, that's the situation with Ceres — the largest object in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, officially designated as a dwarf planet (the same category as Pluto).
NASA's Dawn spacecraft is approaching Ceres ahead of a March 6 rendezvous. The picture above was taken February 19, from a distance of just under 29,000 miles, and shows two very shiny areas on the same basin on Ceres' surface.
Previous Dawn images from further away showed a single light on Ceres, which was just as mysterious. Then, to the amazement of every astronomy geek, the one light turned out to be two — reflecting roughly 40% of the light hitting them.

"This is truly unexpected and still a mystery to us," said Andreas Nathues, lead investigator for the framing camera team at the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research in Gottingen, Germany, in a NASA statement. "The brightest spot [of the two] continues to be too small to resolve with our camera, but despite its size it is brighter than anything else on Ceres."
So what could the bright spots be, other than alien castaways signaling at us with flashlights?
The most obvious contender is ice, although ice would reflect more than 40% of all light hitting it. The difference may be accounted for by the resolution limit of Dawn's camera at this distance. Scientists have previously detected water vapor coming from the surface of the dwarf planet, making ice — a more likely option.
Scientists have also suggested the bright areas could be patches of salt. On the other hand, the location of the two bright spots so close together may be an indication that they have a geologic origin, such as some sort of volcanic process, possibly even ice volcanoes.
According to Chris Russell, principal investigator for the Dawn mission, the positioning of the bright spots within the same area may indicate "a volcano-like origin of the spots," but scientists will have to wait for higher resolution images before making such interpretations. Scientists don't think the spots comprise lava similar to that seen on Earth, since that would shine more brightly.
We'll find out more as Dawn approaches Ceres next week and more imagery comes in during the next 16 months, according to NASA. In the meantime, here's more on Dawn and its eight-year mission:
Astronomers find massive BLACK HOLE the size of 12 billion suns that CONTRADICTS SCIENCE
Astronomers find massive BLACK HOLE the size of 12 billion suns that CONTRADICTS SCIENCE
February 25, 2015 - Some 12.8 billion light years away, astronomers have spotted an object of almost impossible brightness — the most luminous object ever seen in such ancient space. It's from just 900 million years after the big bang, and the old quasar — a shining object produced by a massive black hole — is 420 trillion times more luminous than our sun.
That brightness and size is surprising in a black hole from so close to the dawn of time. In a new study published Wednesday in Nature, researchers describe a cosmic light that defies convention. It was even detectable with a relatively small telescope, though researchers in China did have to ask for help from astronomers in Chile and the United States to get a higher-resolution look. "How could we have this massive black hole when the universe was so young? We don't currently have a satisfactory theory to explain it," said lead author Xue-Bing Wu of Peking University and the Kavli Institute of Astronomy and Astrophysics.
For the black hole to grow to such a staggering size in less than a billion years, the astronomers posit, it must have been pulling in interstellar mass from its surroundings at the maximum rate the whole time. Even so, the radiation of the quasar formed by the black hole should have started to limit that mass accumulation before such a size was reached.
So there are puzzles left to be solved. But for now, Wu said, his team is using the brilliant quasar as a beacon to find other space objects.
Just like a lighthouse sitting in a dark, distant universe," he said, "it gives us a chance to see things in between our own planet and the black hole by illuminating them. It provides a unique chance to understand things between the distant galaxy and ours."
Wu and his team have many follow-up observations planned for the coming year, including projects using space telescopes like the Hubble to get an even better look at things in and near this impressive quasar's galaxy.
News lines and websites lite up as an unidentified flying objects was seen in the skies of Utah, Montana, Washington, Oregon, Colorado, California and Canada on February 24 2015.
Patrick Wiggins, NASA/JPL Solar System Ambassador to Utah, said that the object was a rocket body used in the launch of Yaogan Weixing-26, a Chinese satellite, which was launched in December 2014,
It’s hard to believe the strange anomaly is the rocket body or a part of it. If you compare the Chinese rocket body entering the atmosphere with this anomaly we see two completely different objects in the sky.
See HERE the videos of the rocket body entering the atmosphere.
Could this be extraterrestrial in nature or possibly a dimensional anomaly such as a wormhole? Or is there a logical explanation? One thing is for sure, it’s not a meteor..
KSL-TV photographer Mark Wetzel captured amazing footage of the anomaly as it passed over northern Utah.
Leidt zonsverduistering op 20 maart tot massale black-out?
Leidt zonsverduistering op 20 maart tot massale black-out
Op vrijdag 20 maart vindt in het noordwesten van Europa een gedeeltelijke zonsverduistering plaats. Aangezien we in Europa steeds meer zonne-energie gebruiken, kan een zonsverduistering een groot effect hebben op de elektriciteitsvoorziening.
Het bijzondere aan de eclips is dat elektriciteit die wordt opgewekt door de zon in heel Noordwest-Europa in snel tempo niet meer beschikbaar is. Op een zonnige dag betekent dit dat er in Europa 34.000 megawatt minder zonne-energie kan worden geproduceerd. In Nederland wordt rekening gehouden met een tekort van 500 megawatt, wat ongeveer gelijk is aan de capaciteit van een flinke elektriciteitscentrale.
Extra noodvermogen
Zal de zonsverduistering volgende maand leiden tot een massale black-out? Elektriciteitsbedrijven kijken met angst en beven naar 20 maart, schrijft de Telegraaf. Omdat het dan donker wordt, zal de vraag naar elektriciteit toenemen. En dat terwijl tegelijkertijd het aanbod van zonne-energie juist drastisch omlaag gaat. Men vreest problemen of uitval door tekorten.
Een steeds groter deel van de Europese energievoorziening wordt geleverd door zonnepanelen. De overvloed aan panelen en windmolens in Duitsland betekent dat het land een grote exporteur van elektriciteit is. Zo groot, dat in Nederland talloze gas- en kolencentrales permanent staan uitgeschakeld.
In Europees verband wordt er al maanden gekeken welke maatregelen moeten worden genomen om de zonsverduistering het hoofd te bieden. Zo wordt er onder meer extra noodvermogen ingekocht.
Transavia
De eclips is tussen 09.29 en 11.48 uur in Nederland te zien. Tijdens het maximum om 10.37 uur zal 81 procent van het zonneoppervlak niet meer te zien zijn. De zonsverduistering is in Nederland niet totaal, totaliteit is alleen te zien in een strook die onder Groenland begint en doorloopt naar het noorden.
Transavia vliegt op 20 maart in de richting van de Faeröer Eilanden om de zonsverduistering op die dag vanuit een Boeing 737 waar te nemen. De laatste gehele zonsverduistering in Nederland was in 1715.
Skyline cam catches UFO over Donetsk, Ukraine 24-Feb-2015
Skyline cam catches UFO over Donetsk, Ukraine 24-Feb-2015
An unidentified light hovered over Donetsk’s skyline on Tuesday evening. Earlier in the day, anti-Kiev forces withdrew heavy artillery 50 kilometres (31 miles) away from the line of engagement in the Donetsk region, line with the latest Minsk peace agreement.
The witness first saw the UFO as he was driving near the post office along Jefferson Street, Olympia, WA, about 11 a.m. on February 23, 2015. (Credit: Google)
A Washington witness at Olympia reported watching a white, hovering, cigar-shaped craft that made sharp turns and fired bright light flashes beginning about 11 a.m. on February 23, 2015, according to testimony in Case 63541 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The witness spotted the hovering object with no wings, tail or rotors that made no sound and had no condensation trail behind it.
“The movement of the cigar-shaped, white object was so slow that it appeared to be simply floating along at perhaps about 30-40 mph,” the witness stated. “There’s a possibility it may have been a drone – I’ve not seen all the types of drones the military has these days, and there is a base nearby, so who knows? It could have been ours, but maybe it wasn’t.”
The witness had just pulled out of a post office parking lot on Jefferson Street and turned right heading north.
As the object moved away, it appeared to release bright flashes of light. Pictured: Olympia, WA, as seen from the International Space Station. (Credit: Wikimedia Commons)
“After one block Jefferson Street makes a curve to the northwest and as I was looking ahead during the curve – first gorgeous blue sky day we’ve had in a while – a white cylindrical shape in the distant sky caught my attention.”
The witness aid the object did not “look like a normal airplane.”
“It was long, cylindrical, no wings, tail or rotors, no windows as far as I could tell. It was hard to tell how far away it was – I would guess perhaps anywhere from 1.5 to 2 miles away. Elevation (guessing again) may have been ono-half to one mile high. It’s really hard to tell as there was nothing to triangulate it with.”
The witness is a pilot, but has not flown in years. He pulled over to the side of the road for a better look. The witness was able to see the object for about three to five minutes.
“From my viewpoint it was to my west-northwest, and was headed south, maybe a tweak to the southwest, moving very slowly, silently, for about one minute of my watch time, when suddenly it veered sharply to its right – due west – so now all I could see was the dot of its circumference.”
The witness then noticed flashes of light coming from the object.
“The whiteness of the object was getting dimmer as it moved further west, and suddenly I noticed a bright pomegranate-colored flash below it to the south, and then another less brilliant flash a little further away, and then a third even dimmer and further still away. They were like light flashes, nothing exploding, not flares, and were all in a single southern and lower trajectory from the craft.”
The witness continued to watch the object as he drove along Washington Street where it makes a loop in a northwest direction. (Credit: Google)
Then the craft moved again.
“A few seconds later the craft made an abrupt turn and was longwise to my view again, pointing south. It seemed to just hover there for maybe 10 seconds, and did not proceed further south. Then it abruptly turned west again and within a few seconds there was another brilliant flash off the side of the craft – a brilliant whitish-green, electric colored flash – white on the far side, greener closer to the craft. That flash was fan-shaped, different that the burst of round light previously seen. The fanned-out part of the white-green flash was away from the craft, while the narrow part of the fan-shape was right near the craft.”
The longer the witness watched at this point, the object moved further away until it was out of sight.
Olympia is the capital of the State of Washington and the county seat of Thurston County, population 46,478.
Washington is currently a UFO Alert Level 5 – with 0.87 sightings per million population based on MUFON January 2015 statistics. Washington received a total of six UFO reports in January. The UFO Alert Rating System is based on five levels – 1 through 5 – where states with 4.01 or higher reports per million residents are rated an Alert 1; 3.01 – 4.0 reports are an Alert 2; 2.51 – 3.0 are an Alert 3; 2.01 – 2.5 are an Alert 4; and those states with 2.0 or lower are rated an Alert 5.
Please remember that most UFO sighting can be explained as something natural or man-made. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.
FAMILY ALIEN ABDUCTION IN MASSACHUSETTS 1966 ……. SHEFFIELD MASSACHUSETTS
It’s 1966, and 6-year-old Thomas Reed is in his bedroom on his family’s horse farm in the Berkshires when the encounters begin. Strange lights. Strange figures in the hallway. Suddenly, he’s in the woods near his home looking at a UFO. Then he and his younger brother, Matthew, are inside the craft. He’s shown a projection of a willow tree. The following year, there is another incident at their home on Boardman Street in Sheffield. More strange lights. The sound of doors slamming. Then the boys are back inside the vessel. The next thing Thomas knows, he’s in his driveway being scooped up by his mother, who has been searching frantically for the boys on horseback. Two years later, the family is driving on Route 7 when they see strange lights in the sky. Their car stalls, and then Thomas and his brother and mother and grandmother find themselves in a giant room. He is brought to meet two strange, ant-like figures, then placed in some sort of cage. Next thing, he’s back near the car. Reed has told these stories many times, and it has not always gone well. But recently, his tale had found recognition in an unlikely place. The Great Barrington Historical Society & Museum has formally inducted the UFO story.
What does that mean? “It means that we believe it is true,” said Debbie Oppermann, the director of the society. “I know we’re going to get a lot of backlash. We’re going to get hammered,” she said. “But we have given it an awful lot of thought, and, based on the evidence we’ve been given, we believe this is a significant and true event.” The historical society believes it is the first time a “mainstream” historical society or museum in the United States has declared a UFO encounter to be historical fact. But the decision was far from unanimous; of the nine members of the historical society’s board, three were “strongly opposed” to the decision, Oppermann said, but “it passed with consensus.” The Reed case already has its own display in the International UFO Museum and Research Center in Roswell, N.M.; now, it’s about to get one in Great Barrington, about 2 miles from where the alleged encounters took place. That most interests the historical society is the 1969 encounter, because dozens of people in the area reported seeing an unidentified flying object around that time, typically described as a disk-shaped craft performing acrobatic maneuvers in the sky. Many of those eyewitnesses called the local radio station, WSBS, which covered the sightings. (The radio station has provided documentation to the historical society, which interviewed one of those eyewitnesses. They have also examined a polygraph test taken by Thomas Reed.) Director Debbie Oppermann says the Great Barrington Historical Society believes the Reed family story of having been abducted by aliens in 1969 is true, in part because dozens of people reported seeing a UFO at that time.
Whitby Councillor Reveals An Alien Race Influences President Putin’s Decisions In The Ukraine Conflict
Whitby Councillor Reveals An Alien Race Influences President Putin’s Decisions In The Ukraine Conflict
Alien race known as Nordics influences Putin, according to Councillor Simon Parkes during his talk in Wallsend.
Labour councillor Simon Parkes told a group of around 30 people in Wallsend, North Tyneside that there’s extraterrestrial intervention in Eastern Europe’s recent hostilities.
Coun Parkes, who previously made headlines after claiming that he had hundreds of alien encounters in his life, blamed a race of aliens he called the Nordics for Russia’s aggression in the Ukraine.
The North Yorkshire councillor said that Putin has gotten support from Nordics against perceived U.S. influences in the area.
He revealed that Putin had been one of those people advised by reptiles, but Nordics made a counter offer to the Russian president.
Parkes further claimed that Nordics’ technology is equal with the U.S. The Nordics, according to Parkes, told Putin that he doesn’t need to grant anymore what the Americans requested him to do.
The Whitby councillor also made another shocking claim to the audience at The Vault when he said that his legal father (in the eyes of the universal law) is a reptile.
Ahead of the session, Coun Parkes, who represents Stakesby, had made a comment about the video reportedly taken on Tyneside. It apparently shows a UFO hovering above the North Sea.
Parkes said that the video appears very genuine and the UFO looks like a diamond-shape alien craft to him.
Referring to the video, he said that it’s weird the aircraft remained there for so long. For him, the craft wanted to be seen. Looking at the video, Parkes believes it depicts alien life.
Coun Parkes also actuated controversy in 2013 when he claimed that he lost his virginity to an extraterrestrial at the age of five. But Parkes further claimed that this was not the first time he experienced alien life. The councillor said that when he was in his mother’s womb, he first experienced extraterrestrial life, and he has sexual dealings with an alien group at a maximum of four times a year.
Navy Veteran Observes Large Cigar-Shaped UFO in Exeter, NH
Navy Veteran Observes Large Cigar-Shaped UFO in Exeter, NH

There was something odd in the sky last week, something that caused a Navy veteran with 10,000 hours of flight experience to have his own close encounter. While preparing to mow his lawn, "David" saw a large cigar-shaped object hovering in the sky. He said it was about the size of two USS Nimitz aircraft carriers.

Exeter News-Letter (Exeter, New Hampshire), July 29, 2005
There has been a considerable response to Tuesday’s article in the News-Letter about a recent UFO sighting. Interested local residents and skeptics joined UFO enthusiasts commenting from throughout the nation. R
An Instructor Flight Engineer on the P3 Orion and EP-3 Reconnaissance aircraft with 10,000 hours of flight time called Peter Davenport to report, "An enormous silver cigar shaped object in the sky at about a 40 degree angle above the horizon about 3:15 PM, on July 20, 2005." R
Adam Dolge, Exeter News-Letter (Exeter, New Hampshire, USA), August 2, 2005
It’s happened again. An East Kingston resident said she saw a "silver-cigar" shaped object in a daytime sky last week. This report comes about a week after a 48-year-old Navy veteran claimed to have seen a similar object. R
Artist Angela Gram met with the man who said that he saw the object on a recent afternoon. Gram created a rendering of the object based on the man's description. She said that his story was believable. R
EXETER - There was something odd in the sky last week, something that caused a Navy veteran with 10,000 hours of flight experience to have his own close encounter.
The former flight engineer, who wished to be identified only as "David," said of the experience, "this was like nothing I’ve ever seen before."
What the retired Navy chief petty officer said he saw last Wednesday could only be classified as a UFO, an unidentified flying object.
It was a bright and sunny afternoon, about 3:15 p.m., and David was outside preparing his lawnmower. He had filled the mower with gas, checked the oil, and took a sip from a glass of water he had poured. When he tilted his head back to get the final sip, through the bottom of the glass he saw a large cigar-shaped object hovering in the sky.
David said windows were equally spaced around the object, however he didn’t see anyone or anything inside. The size of the object was enormous. By comparison, he said, consider what an ultralight plane would look like next to a Boeing 747. He said it was about the size of two USS Nimitz aircraft carriers.
At first glance, through his empty glass of water he thought it could have been the Hood blimp. "But, the instant I put my glass down, I said, ‘that’s not a blimp.’"
The object moved from west to east, very slowly for something that size, he said. His initial instinct was that the object was moving at about 100 knots, but something that big shouldn’t be able to stay in the air if it’s going that slow, he said.
The object began changing colors from a bright silver to an orange-ish red. A strange cloud of red and orange flames began surrounding the object, and before he knew it the object stretched out like a rubber band. It grew to about twice its original size, and then it was gone.
The entire incident lasted about 10 minutes, he recalled Monday morning, but he is unaware of the specific time because, "it felt like time stopped."
He went into his house and first thought to call the police. He decided not to because he didn’t think they’d take him seriously. So he went on the Internet and searched for "report UFO," and found the Web site for the Seattle-based National UFO Reporting Center.
Peter Davenport, director of the UFO reporting center, said David’s report was astonishing because of his history with flight. "I have no question on his reliability."
He said he gets several accounts each year, but this one stood out. The report was well written and scientific, Davenport said.
"In my view, that’s one of the cardinal rules of an account," he said.
The center was founded in 1974 by UFO investigator Robert Gribble. The center’s Web site, www.nuforc.org, has a large list of UFO sightings. According to the site, the center’s primary function is to receive, record, and to the greatest degree possible, corroborate and document reports from individuals who have witnessed possible UFOs. David’s report, which will soon be on the Web site, will be among dozens of documented sightings to be formally reported to the center.
Not the first time
The Exeter area is no stranger to UFO sightings. In 1965, two Exeter police officers and hitchhiker Norman Muscarello, who was with them, gained national attention after seeing a UFO hovering over Route 101 in Kensington. The sighting was documented in a book called "The Incident at Exeter."
And then there was the incident involving Barney and Betty Hill, a husband and wife from Portsmouth who claimed to have been abducted by aliens. The couple was driving from a vacation in Canada in 1961 when they saw a UFO.
The object moved directly over their car, and before they knew it they grew drowsy. They later claimed to have been abducted by aliens and gave identical accounts while they were hypnotized.
But for this recent sighting, David said he believes that there is life beyond Earth. He said the galaxy is so enormous, it’s hard to believe humans are the only intelligent life.
"To the point of not being obnoxious, it’d be egocentric to think there is no other life out there."

NIDS conducted a preliminary investigation into the alleged January 18, 1978 fatal shooting of a non-human (?alien?) entity at Fort Dix/McGuire AFB in New Jersey.
The source, a sergeant in the Air Force Security Police at McGuire AFB, adds substantive information relative to the reported fatal encounter on January 18, 1978, between an alleged alien entity and a Ft. Dix MP and relates his firsthand observation, while on duty, when the slain entity was found on an abandoned runway at McGuire AFB.
Here is the story of the incident that literally changed the life of a conscientious young air policeman who was carrying on a family tradition of police service.
Source: NIDS, National Institute for Discovery Science
The primary eyewitness in the case, Jeffrey Morse, alleged (i) that he had been working as a security policeman at McGuire AFB at 03.00 on January 18, 1978 when he was notified about UFO activity over Fort Dix army base that adjoined McGuire AFB. (ii) Morse alleged that he heard that a non-human entity had been shot and he later saw the dead body of the entity lying on the ground on a disused runway at McGuire AFB. (iii) The scene was rapidly cordoned off and the body was crated and flown to Wright-Patterson AFB (WPAFB) for examination. (iv)Morse himself, two days after the shooting incident, was allegedly summoned to WPAFB and interrogated about the event. He was warned to keep quiet and shortly thereafter was transferred to Okinawa, Japan.

----------------------------------------------
Letter from sergeant Morse summarizing his experience and the incident:
In January of 1978, I was stationed at McGuire AFB, NJ. One evening, during the time frame of 0300hrs and 0500hrs., there were a number of UFO sightings in the area over the air field and Ft. Dix Army camp. I am a security policeman and was on routine patrol at the time. N.J. State Police, and Ft. Dix MPs were running code in the direction of Brownsville, NJ. A state trooper then entered gate #5 at the rear of the base requesting assistance and permission to enter. I was dispatched and the trooper wanted access to the runway area which led to the very back of the air field and connected with a heavily wooded area which is part of the Dix training area. He informed me that a Ft. Dix MP was pursueing (sic) a low flying object which then hovered over his car. He described it as oval shaped, with no details, and glowing with a blueish (sic) green color. His radio transmission was cut off. At that time in front of his police car, appeared a thing, about 4ft tall, grayish (sic), brown, fat head, long arms, and slender body. The MP panicked and fired five rounds from his .45 Cal into the thing, and one round into the object above. The object then fled straight up and joined with eleven others high in the sky. This we all saw but didn?t know the details at the time. Anyway, the thing ran into the woods towards our fenceline and they wanted to look for it. By this time several patrols were involved.
We found the body of the thing near the runway. It had apparently climbed the fence and died while running. It was all of a sudden hush-hush and no one was allowed near the area. We roped off the area and AF OSI came out and took over. That was the last I saw of it. There was a bad stench coming from it too. Like ammonia smelling but it wasn?t constent (sic) in the air. That day, a team from Wright-Patterson AFB came in a C141 and went to the area. They crated it in a wooden box, sprayed something over it, and then put it into a bigger metal container. They loaded it in the plane and took off. That was it, nothing more was said, no report made and we were all told not to have anything to say about it or we would be court martialed.
---------------
Morse, in subsequent conversations, revealed that two days after the incident he and others on duty at the scene were summoned to Wright Patterson AFB for interrogation, and each was transferred promptly to a separate base overseas.
The Fort Dix/McGuire case was also of interest because a prominent UFO investigator, George Filer, claimed to have been present at McGuire AFB on the morning of January 18, 1978. Mr. Filer told NIDS that he witnessed a commotion with red lights on one of the disused runways at McGuire when he arrived on the base at 4:00 AM. He further claimed that he heard from a Senior Master Sergeant at McGuire command post on the same morning that (i) UFO activity had been sighted by the control tower and on radar at neighboring Fort Dix and (ii) an alien had been shot that morning and that it had been found dead on the runway at McGuire.

Top 10 Ancient Gadgets! # 6 you probably already recognize
Top 10 Ancient Gadgets! # 6 you probably already recognize
February 25, 2015 - Nowadays, we are extremely proud of the existent technology and we have come to rely on it for various things. But what was it like hundreds of years ago? What was technology for the cultures existent back then? Well, as history and archeological findings have shown us, they did have technology and, of course, ancient gadgets. Let’s check out the top 10 gadgets of the ancient world.
#1 Antikythera Mechanism
Made almost 2000 years ago, the Antikythera Mechanism is believed to be one of the oldest computers in the world. Found in the ruins of a ship, it was considered for a long time to be clock but recent discoveries have demonstrated it could do so much more. Originating from Greece, this ancient gadget had the ability to predict when a solar eclipse would happen and even could organize the calendar in cycles of four years.
#2 The Coso Artifact
The fact that you would find a spark plug is nothing special. But what happens when that spark plug is actually embedded in hard rock, one that dates from as long as 500.000 years ago? The Coso Artifact has disappeared and it is not to be studied using modern technology. There are three suppositions however when it comes to its origins: one, that it was made by an extremely intelligent ancient civilization such as Atlantis; two, that it came from the future and three, that it is of alien origin.
#3 Baigong Pipes
Located on top of Mountain Baigong, the Baigong pipes lead directly into a pyramid. The interesting thing about these rusty pipes is that no signs of civilizations in the area has ever been unearthed there. This means that the reason for which these have been made is still unknown. However, they are of an uniform size and they do have a special pattern, a salt lake being situated in their close vicinity.
#4 Ancient Sandstone Xylophone
The link between humans and music is older than any of us can imagine. In the early 20th century, scientists have discovered these ancient sandstones and they believed them to have been used for grinding grains. It took a lot of time and a fortunate accident before their real purpose was discovered; it seems that this ancient gadget is actually a musical instrument, this being discovered by accident by an archaeologist.
#5 Roman Dodecahedra
While there are many fascinating Roman artifacts that can easily pose as ancient gadgets, this is by far one of the best. Amazingly enough, it was found in several countries, including Germany, France and Switzerland. Even though many archaeologists have tried to study it, no clear purpose was identified. They were able to identify certain symbols on it there are related to the Zodiac but they are not certain whether it was used for surveying or it just had a decorative purpose.
#6 Mystery airplanes
Discovered in Columbia, these figurines are believed to have been made by a tribe named Quimbaya, somewhere around 1000 CE. The resemblance to an airplane is uncanny, as they have tails, landing gears and wings just like any modern day plane. Scientists have rebuilt models after them only to prove that they worked. There are some scientists who say that these are only stylized fish or insects.
#7 The Phaistos Disc
This ancient gadget is made from clay and it is believed to date back to the second millennium. Just like other ancient gadgets, its origin is unknown and so is the meaning or the intent purpose. The disc has been unearthed in Crete and it has a wide array of symbols imprinted on it, some of which have been identified as people, animals, tools or plants.
#8 Byzantine Tablet
While we rely on modern tablets for a lot of things, so did the people from Byzantine culture rely on their ancient gadgets. This tablet is comprised of five panels that are stacked together and each of them has a frame and a wax coating. It is believed that they were used for making note on inventories or appraisals.
#9 Baghdad Battery
Perhaps this is one of the strangest ancient gadgets to have ever been discovered. While it is clearly a battery, it does not explain why would people who lived in the ancient world need it. It was found in Iraq in 1936 and ever since then scientists have constructed replicas in order to prove that it actually works.
#10 Dropa Stones
These stones are unique ancient gadgets and many people have said they belong to an ancient or alien culture. They were discovered on a burial site in the Himalayan mountains and each of these stones is actually a one-foot wide disc, with a simple hole in the center. The interesting thing about these is that they are extremely old; scientists have placed them to have existed as far as 12.000 years ago.
Modern day gadgets are extremely useful for us. And maybe it was just like that for ancient cultures, relying on the gadgets presented above for every day living.
Poltergeist phenomena was soon concurrent with a close overhead sighting of a flotilla of alien craft.
Nightmares and vivid dreams involving 3-D scenario 'exams' ensued including recalling eyeball to eyeball encounters with entities who were white like a refrigerator, tall, flat like a gumby cartoon character and who spoke mind to mind.
When I began to write about and focus on these experiences by doing broadcasts things got much worse.
Electrical irregularities, knocks and ticks on furniture, fixtures, appliances, the walls preceded nightmares and abduction recall; floorboards creaked with the specific weight of unseen intelligence's cloaked lightweight chitin frames who were sinister, intrusive, telepathic, abducting and controlling.
Nightmares abounded and 'bad luck' incidents increased.
Vivid unpleasant dreams prevailed; imposed nightmares, given in clear retribution, were not only screen memories to muddle the memory of an abduction, but also strong telepathic attacks by a discorporate energy with intelligence, an alien entity in-dwelling or attached.
One is horrified.
Therein is the true invasion; only God knows how long this has been going on with people, on Earth.
It is surely demonic in nature. The motives and tactics of these beings are predatory, sinister and self-justifying, the three criteria of pure evil.
I have researched the literature available and have come up with quotes that corroborate my beliefs and inclinations about these highly technological beings who I have seen eyeball to eyeball, who are the pilots of UFOs which violate our airspace and its citizens, nightly:
"Human beings are under the control of a strange force that bends them in absurd ways, forcing them to play a role in a bizarre game of deception."
- Brad Steiger, [cited in] Blue Book Files Released inCanadian UFO Report, Vol. 4, No. 4, 1977, p. 20 "We are part of a symbiotic relationship with something which disguises itself as an extra-terrestrial invasion so as not to alarm us."
-Terrence McKenna [from a lecture] "One theory which can no longer be taken very seriously is that UFOs are interstellar spaceships."
- Arthur C. Clarke, New York Times Book Review, 07/27/75 "There seems to be no evidence yet that any of these craft or beings originate from outer space."
-Gordon Creighton, Official 1992 Flying Saucer Review Policy Statement "A large part of the available UFO literature is closely linked with mysticism and the metaphysical. It deals with subjects like mental telepathy, automatic writing and invisible entities as well as phenomena like poltergeist [ghost] manifestation and 'possession.' Many of the UFO reports now being published in the popular press recount alleged incidents that are strikingly similar to demonic possession and psychic phenomena."
- Lynn E. Catoe, UFOs and Related Subjects: USGPO, 1969; prepared under AFOSR Project Order 67-0002 and 68-0003 "UFO behaviour is more akin to magic than to physics as we know it... the modern UFOnauts and the demons of past days are probably identical."
-Dr. Pierre Guerin, FSR Vol. 25, No. 1, p. 13-14 "The UFO manifestations seem to be, by and large, merely minor variations of the age-old demonological phenomenon..."
-Trevor James, FSR Vol. 8, No. 1, p.10 "Studies of flying saucer cults repeatedly show that they are part of a larger occult social world."
-Stupple & McNeece, 1979 MUFON UFO Symposium Proceedings, p. 49 "The 'medical examination' to which abductees are said to be subjected, often accompanied by sadistic sexual manipulation, is reminiscent of the medieval tales of encounters with demons. It makes no sense in a sophisticated or technical framework: any intelligent being equipped with the scientific marvels that UFOs possess would be in a position to achieve any of these alleged scientific objectives in a shorter time and with fewer risks."
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
- Dr. Jacques Vallee, Confrontations, p. 13 "The symbolic display seen by the abductees is identical to the type of initiation ritual or astral voyage that is embedded in the [occult] traditions of every culture...the structure of abduction stories is identical to that of occult initiation rituals...the UFO beings of today belong to the same class of manifestation as the [occult] entities that were described in centuries past."
-Dr. Jacques Vallee citing the extensive research of Bertrand Meheust [ Science-Fiction et Soucoupes Volantes (Paris, 1978); Soucoupes Volantes et Folklore (Paris, 1985)], inConfrontations, p. 146, 159-161 "[The occultist] is brought into intelligent communication with the spirits of the air, and can receive any knowledge which they possess, or any false impression they choose to impart...the demons seem permitted to do various wonders at their request."
"I became entirely given over to extreme dread. The fear was so powerful that it seemed to make my personality completely evaporate... 'Whitley' ceased to exist. What was left was a body and a state of raw fear so great that it swept about me like a thick, suffocating curtain, turning paralysis into a condition that seemed close to death...I died and a wild animal appeared in my place."
- Whitley Streiber, Communion, p. 25-26 "Increasingly I felt as if I were entering a struggle that might even be more than life and death. It might be a struggle for my soul, my essence, or whatever part of me might have reference to the eternal. There are worse things than death, I suspected... so far the word demon had never been spoken among the scientists and doctors who were working with me...Alone at night I worried about the legendary cunning of demons ...At the very least I was going stark, raving mad."
- Whitley Streiber, Transformation, p. 44-45 "I wondered if I might not be in the grip of demons, if they were not making me suffer for their own purposes, or simply for their enjoyment."
- Whitley Streiber, Transformation, p. 172 "I felt an absolutely indescribable sense of menace. It was hell on earth to be there [in the presence of the entities], and yet I couldn't move, couldn't cry out, couldn't get away. I'd lay as still as death, suffering inner agonies. Whatever was there seemed so monstrously ugly, so filthy and dark and sinister. Of course they were demons. They had to be. And they were here and I couldn't get away."
- Whitley Streiber, Transformation, p. 181 "Why were my visitors so secretive, hiding themselves behind my consciousness. I could only conclude that they were using me and did not want me to know why...What if they were dangerous? Then I was terribly dangerous because I was playing a role in acclimatizing people to them."
Like insect praying mantids and their higher alien archetype who cannot understand higher, elevated ideals like compassion, forgiveness, love and mercy, intrusive dark intentions to disrupt and control and possess come from both aliens who abduct as well as from demons and both move against us without conscience.
(from unknown Internet source ):"A factor that God wants us to realize more completely and fully is that we are not alone in this ocean of air. Even as vicious sharks and barracuda prowl the water, their demonic counterparts, foul and unclean spiritual raptors and carrion-eaters, demonic alien entities who attack people, by abducting and then possessing them, inhabit the ocean of air right along with us."
I shall close this article with a private communication from Whitley Streiber:
"My mission, even when I was not sure that my own close encounter experiences were physical, or even negative, was to find ways of empowering myself and others in the face of this unknown.
When I was having and seeing good experiences, I wanted to facilitate contact. Now that contact has changed, I have changed. I want to find ways of effectively protecting us.
I view the spreaders of disempowering messages to be de facto under the control of the visitors, whether they are operating from some concealed agenda, under some sort of mind control, or simply from their own fear. If you preach fear without empowerment, as far as I am concerned, you're working for them. The same is true if you preach the bald faced lie that they are in some way loving toward us and that our fear is our fault. This is pure fantasy, and also does their work for them, in that it keeps us passive toward what is happening to us.
So, what is to be done?
Unfortunately, ordinary means do not offer us any help. The government is obviously unable even to warn people of the dangers involved. Otherwise, it would have publicized the murders I have referred to and openly studied things like implants and the physical effects of abduction which, though little researched and poorly understood, appear to be many.
The amount of physical evidence is so extensive that research would be quite easy. The truth is that the skeptics' lie that there is no physical evidence of abduction is just that: a complete falsehood. There is, in fact, an abundance of physical evidence readily available to science.
I think that protection will come from two things: mutual support and knowledge. I don't think that abductee groups are the answer, though. I tried such groups early on and they were a disaster. People with religious and `space brothers' agendas rushed to them. Mentally ill and otherwise disturbed people who want to ascribe their personal problems to the stress of contact appeared, bringing their baggage with them. Even the groups that came together well were, ultimately, unproductive. What can we really do in these groups? In the end, they became repetitive and did not offer what we need. Counselling and post-abduction support is important, of course. But what we need is a means of controlling our exposure to close encounters in the first place.
Ten years ago, I was saying that what we needed was a means of perfecting communication and learning how to live in the context of encounter. Of course I was. Except for my initial experience, I'd had a wonderful time. And I still can't fault it. The visitors took me beyond the edge of known reality, and I saw spread before me hidden glories.
However, I am also a down-to-earth realist, and I am not seeing any of that sort of thing anymore. We need to learn how to anticipate contact and how to avoid it. If there are still visitors out there who have something good to bring us, they'll find their own way, I feel sure. But right now what we've got to deal with is awful, and the key to doing this is avoidance.
If we were not able to avoid them, they wouldn't need to sneak up on us as they do. So knowledge matters. Social agreement matters. But our best tools, the government with all its various resources and the scientific community with its ability to explore and gather information, have been denied to us by a process of clever social control, or possibly for good reason, as discussed above, by the government itself.
Most abduction researchers offer no help, or `help' that's actually worse than nothing. Being told that it's horrible and there's nothing to be done except wait for `disclosure' that will never come doesn't help. It freezes us and tells us we are impotent until and if our captured or neutered government acts. Being told idiotic things like we made an "agreement" of some sort with the visitors "on the soul level" to go through this is shameful and childish rubbish.
On a frank, physical level, the only things that I know help are two:
1. Stay in heavily populated areas, especially at night.
2. Move every few years. In recent years, Anne and I have moved seven times,
and we are typical of witnesses. However, running is ultimately not an answer.
Being informed helps. Knowing the signs of possible visitor involvement in a given area helps.
What are these signs? Listen to the interview with Kenny Young. All the signs are present in this case. The first is the presence of UFOs in the area. The visitors often, but not always, make their presence known in this way, perhaps because they cannot conceal the craft, or do not care to.
They know that the media won't provide useful information about their presence. Another way to find out is to visit the National UFO Reporting Center often. This isn't a perfect system, but its the best we have.
The second sign is if you should notice any manifestations around you. If you actually see a UFO, for example. Or if your area suddenly becomes extremely quiet. Birds and animals stop, insects stop. An eerie silence falls. If this is followed by an eruption of animal sounds-dogs howling and barking, cats pacing, wildlife squalling, it means that the visitors are on the ground.
Personally, I would stay awake and together in a lighted room. Don't venture out. Don't express any interest in them. And if there is the least sign of their presence near you- knocking on walls, sudden shadows flashing about in the house, your pets becoming agitated-do not go to sleep no matter how sleepy you get. Fight it. Turn on music, the TV, make phone calls. And don't go to sleep in the predawn. The hours from three until sunrise are favorite contact times. Stay awake until well after dawn, when the world is active again.
Ultimately, as a species, we have no escape from this. Even if the government were to announce that the visitors were entirely real, and publish all it knows about them, and do everything it possibly could now or in any conceivable future to free us from them, we would not succeed in escaping them. In fact, no amount of struggle is going to dislodge them.
Maybe not from the world, anyway. But from your life-yes. You can help yourself. It is not only about avoiding encounter, it is about coping on a personal as well as a social level.
As to the question, `why have the visitors changed,' maybe they haven't. Look at what's happened from another perspective. What if astronauts from earth discovered another world. Perhaps, for a time, strict rules of contact that respected the native population would be observed. Maybe, though, in time, those rules would be relaxed, especially as travel to the new world became easier and cheaper.
Exploitative people would arrive, people carrying their religious and ideological agendas. These would be lesser people than the noble astronauts-believers and fanatics intent on imposing their fantasies on the helpless aliens. Then there would be those seeking resources of some kind, who wanted results and didn't care how they got them. And there would be the evil, the sadists, the scum.
For whatever reason, I think we have been left to the exploiters and the scum. Who knows? Maybe the good guys gave up or lost a war. Maybe those of us who got good treatment were simply being deceived.
The point is, we must always approach this from a practical standpoint, and at the present time, contact is awful and dangerous. If the visitors want it to be different, then they need to find a way to change it. For our part, we must seek to find the good in our own souls, and let the dark presence that slips along the paths of the night know that we know it is there, and we will do everything we can to avoid it."
My journal entries get a lot of comment, and for that I am so grateful to you. Some of it is quite, quite wise, and I thought that this, from a knowledgeable abductee, is particularly valuable. Take it to heart.
I drink a LOT of water before sleep so as to awaken during sleep to urinate often just as a method of tearing myself away from the vivid constructs of imposed "dreams" as I find it virtually impossible to go "lucid' despite years of self programming.
I might have supposed that our own military is involved up to their necks with Dracos and other reptoid-greys to use people for their own nefarious purposes but I thought that one must be highly psychic or otherwise gifted in OBE's or astral travel to be so used..
I am only rarely episodically highly psychic.
I am able to focus anger against them but I awaken each morning drained from ethereal "milking", feeling the "burn" of attachments, like unseen arms hugging me and I suffer from horrid nightmare scenarios, like attacks by large crab-like cockroaches, alien- demonic bullcrap.
I have seen juvenile reptilians materialize briefly when I try astrally to sweep their burning connection touches from my body ; they are five foot tall half man half monitor lizard entities with a birdlike intelligence and curiosity in their eyes.
I have presumed that almost all the vivid "dreams" imposed upon me are screen memories as I am aboard craft.
I DO have the odd ability to remain lucid during some parts of abductions and have been a 'management' problem for their efforts as I can resist in small ways and do recall enough to write down and post it everywhere on the web.
Shortly after an experience where I awakened, in bed, surrounded by small entities who were operating a small whirring drill into my lower neck, I had to have emergency surgery, for real, because three neck discs completely compressed my spinal cord close to my brain, to cause pain one could never imagine and it threatened to totally paralyze me.
All discs from c-3 to c-7 were replaced with titanium and marrow grafts using cadaver sterilized bone material.The pain has been unimaginable and sleep almost impossible; I cannot submit my head to a pillow.
Since that life threatening experience, years later two discs just below the hardware in my neck herniated and sleep is replete with pain shooting down both arms.
The jaw pain and headaches are my constant companions; it is all that I can do to sleep a few hours as I cannot recline.
I have been diagnosed with degenerative spinal disease and many discs also herniate in my thorax and lumbar that make sitting or walking an experience in pain down both legs.
I am convinced that all this has been retribution for writing about them though I have been severely warned by them NOT to continue to publicize truths about aliens.
There are still many who cannot accept aliens and UFOs.
They're not a singularity of cynicism; there are many others.To quote one abductee:
"A leap in consciousness will require a dissolution and restructuring of your beliefs about the nature of reality"
To live unburdened by an insatiable curiosity to comprehend the mysteries of the universe is quite an amazing thing, in itself.
"The history of mankind has been punctuated by personalities who refused to be bound by the grand illusion of space and time, seekers who penetrated the limitations of space and form.'
Knowing the aliens reside in a different reality explains why this whole UFO phenomenon is so slippery; we exist within a matrix of other realities all merging in one spot: the mind."
Aliens and their craft exist.
My expanded consciousness and mental abilities are the outcome of my contacts with them.
'Their world coexists with our own intimately intertwined and separated by the thinnest veil- our arrogant assumption that we are the sole proprietors of the only reality.'
Paul Schroeder
BIO:
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 besinister, discorporate alien souls, stuck to our energies, who bring a new meaning to the concept of a silent invasion.
Should Humanity Try to Contact Alien Civilizations?
Should Humanity Try to Contact Alien Civilizations?
Some researchers want to use big radio dishes like the 305-meter Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico to announce our presence to intelligent aliens.

Is it time to take the search for intelligent aliens to the next level?
For more than half a century, scientists have been scanning the heavens for signals generated by intelligent alien life. They haven't found anything conclusive yet, so some researchers are advocating adding an element called "active SETI" (search for extraterrestrial intelligence) — not just listening, but also beaming out transmissions of our own designed to catch aliens' eyes.
Active SETI "may just be the approach that lets us make contact with life beyond Earth," Douglas Vakoch, director of interstellar message composition at the SETI Institute in Mountain View, California, said earlier this month during a panel discussion at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) in San Jose. [13 Ways to Hunt Intelligent Alien Life]
Vakoch envisions using big radio dishes such as the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico to blast powerful, information-laden transmissions at nearby stars, in a series of relatively cheap, small-scale projects.
"Whenever any of the planetary radar folks are doing their asteroid studies, and they have an extra half an hour before or after, there's always a target star readily available that they can shift to without a lot of extra slough time," he said.
The content of any potential active SETI message is a subject of considerable debate. If it were up to astronomer Seth Shostak, Vakoch's SETI Institute colleague, we'd beam the entire Internet out into space.
"It's like sending a lot of hieroglyphics to the 19th century — they [aliens] can figure it out based on the redundancy," Shostak said during the AAAS discussion. "So, I think in terms of messages, we should send everything."
While active SETI could help make humanity's presence known to extrasolar civilizations, the strategy could also aid the more traditional "passive" search for alien intelligence, Shostak added.
"If you're going to run SETI experiments, where you're trying to listen for a putative alien broadcast, it may be very instructive to have to construct a transmitting project," he said. "Because now, you walk a mile in the Klingons' shoes, assuming they have them."
Cause for concern?
But active SETI is a controversial topic. Humanity has been a truly technological civilization for only a few generations; we're less than 60 years removed from launching our first satellite to Earth orbit, for example. So the chances are that any extraterrestrials who pick up our signals would be far more advanced than we are. [The Search for Intelligent Life: 4 Key Questions (Video)]
This likelihood makes some researchers nervous, including famed theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking.
"Such advanced aliens would perhaps become nomads, looking to conquer and colonize whatever planets they could reach," Hawking said in 2010 on an episode of "Into the Universe with Stephen Hawking," a TV show that aired on the Discovery Channel. "If so, it makes sense for them to exploit each new planet for material to build more spaceships so they could move on. Who knows what the limits would be?"
Astrophysicist and science fiction author David Brin voiced similar concerns during the AAAS event, saying there's no reason to assume that intelligent aliens would be altruistic.
"This is an area in which discussion is called for," Brin said. "What are the motivations of species that they might carry with them into their advanced forms, that might color their cultures?"
Brin stressed that active SETI shouldn't be done in a piecemeal, ad hoc fashion by small groups of astronomers.
"This is something that should be discussed worldwide, and it should involve our peers in many other specialties, such as history," he said. "The historians would tell us, 'Well, gee, we have some examples of first-contact scenarios between advanced technological civilizations and not-so-advanced technological civilizations.' Gee, how did all of those turn out? Even when they were handled with goodwill, there was still pain."
Out there already
Vakoch and Shostak agreed that international discussion and cooperation are desirable. But Shostak said that achieving any kind of consensus on the topic of active SETI may be difficult. For example, what if polling reveals that 60 percent of people on Earth are in favor of the strategy, while 40 percent are opposed?
"Do we then have license to go ahead and transmit?" Shostak said. "That's the problem, I think, with this whole 'let's have some international discussion' [idea], because I don't know what the decision metric is."
Vakoch and Shostak also said that active SETI isn't as big a leap as it may seem at first glance: Our civilization has been beaming signals out into the universe unintentionally for a century, since the radio was invented.
"The reality is that any civilization that has the ability to travel between the stars can already pick up our accidental radio and TV leakage," Vakoch said. "A civilization just 200 to 300 years more advanced than we are could pick up our leakage radiation at a distance of several hundred light-years. So there are no increased dangers of an alien invasion through active SETI."
But Brin disputed this assertion, saying the so-called "barn door excuse" is a myth.
"It is very difficult for advanced civilizations to have picked us up at our noisiest in the 1980s, when we had all these military radars and these big television antennas," he said.
Shostak countered that a fear of alien invasion, if taken too far, could hamper humanity's expansion throughout the solar system, an effort that will probably require the use of high-powered transmissions between farflung outposts.
"Do you want to hamstring all that activity — not for the weekend, not just shut down the radars next week, or active SETI this year, but shut down humanity forever?" Shostak said. "That's a price I'm not willing to pay."
So the discussion and debate continues — and may continue for quite some time.
"This is the only really important scientific field without any subject matter," Brin said. "It's an area in which opinion rules, and everybody has a very fierce opinion."
What Do Gene Sequencing, Radio Astronomy And Particle Physics Have In Common?
What Do Gene Sequencing, Radio Astronomy And Particle Physics Have In Common?
Modern scientific discovery is driven by one thing, without which breakthroughs like gene sequencing, the search for the Higgs boson and dark matter and huge telescope arrays wouldn’t be possible – High Performance Computing (HPC).
With the computational might to blitz through millions of bytes of data, calculations and statistical possibilities, scientists were able to posit the existence of particles like the Higgs boson and campaign for expensive projects like the Large Hadron Collider – because they could show what they were looking for.
The same kind of processing power is what’s allowing the UK’s version of the Genome Project, attempting to sequence whole genomes rather than just excerpts known as exons, to go ahead.
Cambridge University has had HPC in one form or another for 18 years, from the old 80s supercomputer sitting in the middle of a room, to its modern new server facility, which is based on a large DellDell server cluster made up of 9.600 cores and four petabytes of storage running on a Hadoop platform and is currently getting its finishing touches after a £20m investment.

The university has one of the largest research and development budgets in the UK education sector, devoting 40 per cent of its £1438m annual revenue to funding advances in the fields of astronomy, genomics, medicine, physics and many more.
But its HPC time is also hired out to businesses in the nearby science and technology park, helping the university to pay for top IT support, while providing a valuable niche service to firms
Just a few years ago, that kind of commoditisation of HPC wouldn’t have been possible, Dr Paul Calleja, director of HPC Service at Cambridge, told visitors in a talk attended by Forbes.
“It used to be that a small number of users were eating up all the HPC power,” he said. “But now we have a long tail in HPC usage – modest amounts of HPC are now useful to many more people.”
That change is down to how much more computational power is available, but despite the value of Moore’s Law in increasing processor power, the growth in data volumes far outstrips it. Massive global science projects like CERN’s particle physics experiments and the Genome Project are creating a demand revolution that’s going to drive ever-increasing HPC, Dr Calleja reckons.
“I believe that the change now will be more fundamental than the change in the late 90s that ushered in the commoditisation of HPC,” he said.
Cambridge’s new data centre has 96 cabinets that can take a 1000kW to 2000kW IT load, but the university sees it as sufficient just for a two to five year growth plan. It’s going to have to be fast enough and powerful enough to process data from what is currently the world’s most ambitious IT project – the Square Kilometre Array.
This is the next generation radio telescope project to be built in Australia and South Africa, which will be 50 to 100 times more sensitive than any other radio instrument and require long-haul network links with a capacity greater than the current global Internet traffic as well as very high powered computing.
At the same time, Cambridge’s HPC Service will be catering to projects like the Bridge Genome Project, an attempt to study the gene sequencing of 10,000 people with rare genetic diseases.
According to Willem Ouwehand, professor of experimental haematology at the university, genomics medicine is a multi-disciplinary field, employing physicists and mathematicians alongside nurses and biologists. In fact, a third of the people involved in gene research are actually working on the computational side.

The Bridge project is hoping to help advance the study of rare genetic diseases, which affect more than 300 million people in the world, but are extremely difficult for on-the-ground medical staff to diagnose.
Professor Ouwehand foresees a time when computers could help to support doctors’ diagnoses by holding a bank of data on diseases learned from gene sequencing. And this project can afford to sequence whole genomes instead of exons because of the commoditisation of the HPC Service at Cambridge, which has opened up the university’s budget.
And on top of that, Cambridge’s processors will also be continuing to run the mathematical models that predict the next particles that accelerators like the LHC might glimpse. Ron Horgan, professor in theoretical and mathematical physics, explained that the same sort of computational power needed to explore the far reaches of the Universe through astronomy are also needed to examine the most fundamental and smallest particles.
“The LHC has more than enough energy to prove the Standard Model of Physics and even go beyond that, but we believe there’s still more after that – that’s where HPC comes in,” he said.
Supercomputers run the mathematical models that predict where particles might appear and with enough verification, scientists can then start the search in the real world, as the LHC did with the Higgs boson.
“Understanding physics using computers is a third discipline of the scientific method in addition to theory and experiment,” Horgan added.
This is all possible using Cambridge’s HPC Service now, but even more will be done as demand drives further innovation in HPC in the future, according to Dr Calleja.
“Tomorrow there will be large public data sets in the fields of science, linked to computing power and analytical methods and open to a broad research base of experts and non-experts alike,” he said.
“This democratisation of data will be what transforms the research process and this technological wonderland is on the horizon, I think.”

Russia has been looking at the possibility of creating its own space station by 2024. The country’s space agency, Roscosmos, says it is committed to the International Space Station until then, but then will unlock the modules to create its own base.
The proposed Russian space station would give the country’s space agency a platform to further its goals to explore the Moon, which is a priority for Roscosmos. The agency will look to study the Moon, using robotic equipment over the next decade with the goal of sending manned missions to the moon by 2030, Tass news agency reported the Science and Technology board for Roscosmos as stating. It will be partly built from segments from the old station, as well as adding new ones.
“Piloting cosmonauts is part of our general space strategy and today with have decided upon our main trajectory,” said Yury Koptev, a representative of the Science and Technology board, Tass reported. “This is through the International Space Station and working towards a lunar program in the Earth’s orbit and in deep space.”

Koptev added that the space agency will continue its research into the Moon and further space exploration in March, leading up to the board’s next meeting.
“The configuration of a multi-purpose laboratory module, a [docking] node module and a scientific power module [would] create a promising Russian space station to meet the challenges of providing secure access to space,” a statement from the agency read, according to Tass.
Roscosmos's Science and Technology board have been looking at the possibility of piloting astronauts till 2030.
The possibility of creating a Russian stand-alone space station was first confirmed by Oleg Ostapenko, the head of Roscosmos, in December.
“There is this option. We are making calculations at the moment,” Ostapenko said, when asked about the possible project.

He added that a national space station would be “a step forward” for Russia and may serve “a number of different purposes,” for instance as a transfer point for the Russian lunar exploration program.
Russia has had its own space station in the past. This was until 2001, when the Mir space station was deorbited, splashing down into the Pacific Ocean after spending more than 5,500 days in space. Russia cited the age of the station and the high operational costs as the reasons for the decision.
Russian Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin, who supervises defense-related policies, has said Moscow could discontinue its segment of the International Space Station (ISS) after 2020. He added that “the Russian segment [of the ISS] can exist independently from the American one, but the American segment cannot exist without the Russian.”
Russia’s decision to continue its cooperation with the International Space Station will come as a relief to the other partners involved in the program. There had been uncertainty whether Russia would continue following western sanctions introduced against the country. Russia is currently the only nation capable of getting astronauts to and from the ISS, following the disbanding of NASA’s space shuttle program.
The US stated over a year ago that it will continue to back the ISS and keep it operational at least until 2024, with the possibility to extend its mission to 2028, the 30-year anniversary of the launch of the outpost’s first module.
Mainstream Media reporting on UFO activity? Whatever next? Reptile house at Buckingham Palace maybe.
A television crew captured this astonishing footage which appears to show a purple disc-shaped UFO hovering about a city construction site. The production crew in Lima, Peru, were filming a programe when they interrupted it in order to focus on what appears to be a ‘UFO’ hovering over the city. The purple-colored disc-shaped object can be seen hovering in the sky near a construction site, but so far, there has been no official explanation for the object.

The unidentified purple object was seen above this construction site - it can be seen just under the crane
According to Peru This Week, television show 'Alto al Crimen' - an investigative program aimed at preventing high level crime - was shooting an episode in the upscale Miraflores district of Lima on February 10 when they spotted the unusual object.
The show's host, Lima Congressman Renzo Reggiardo, halted an interview in order to allow his camera operator to focus on the strange-looking purple object in the sky.
Eyewitnesses reported seeing the object hovering over the city for up to two hours.
Thousands of people have taken to social media to discuss what they think the mysterious purple object is and the video has already been viewed more than 100,000 times.

The Raelian movement, a UFO religion, are delighted by the spotting and claim the UFO is somehow linked to their initiative to persuade the Peruvian government to build an extraterrestrial embassy in the country
Some suggest it is a drone or kite or a hologram projected into the sky.
Other people believe it could be proof of extraterrestrial life, while one person said that they think it is a 'plastic bag'.
Adding more mystery to the UFO sighting are claims that the UFO is somehow linked to an initiative currently underway by the Raelian movement - a UFO religion - to persuade the Peruvian government to build an extraterrestrial embassy, reports The Examiner.
Erich Rever of the Peruvian Raelian Movement said: 'This UFO appeared right when we held a press conference to present our embassy project plan, which we have submitted to the Peruvian government.
'Peru must be dear to our extraterrestrial creators, who lived here in ancient times and left many traces, so we're asking the government for permission to build the embassy here.
'It's a wonderful opportunity for Peruvians to understand their past and, more importantly, to consider receiving our creators, the Elohim, who were taken for gods by our ancestors and now ask to be welcomed back.
'We're hoping the Peruvian government will receive their request loud and clear!'
The Peru chapter of the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) is investigating and says it is seeking more eyewitnesses who may have videotaped the purple aerial object from different vantage points.
Early AM February 24, 2015 (late pm February 23) a very large fireball meteor appeared in the skies over Montana, Idaho, Washington, Colorado, Utah, and Oregon.
The fireball spotted streaking across the night sky late on Monday in the western United States was almost certainly the body of a rocket used by
China in December to launch a satellite, an astronomer said on Tuesday.
Residents in Rocky Mountain states such as Idaho, Utah and Montana reported seeing the rocket as it disintegrated in the atmosphere about 70 miles (113 km) above Earth, said Chris Anderson, manager of the Centennial Observatory at the College of Southern Idaho in Twin Falls.
The rocket, which was orbiting Earth about every 87 minutes, made an early appearance elsewhere and in fiery fashion likely because its orientation may have changed.
The old saying goes “Diamond are a girl’s best friend” but the question is, what’s with the Diamond UFOs over New York?
It was a little after 9 p.m. on September 27th, 2014 Hank, a Buffalo, NY resident went outside for a cigarette. While gazing at the crystal clear southern sky he observed a diamond UFO traversing the sky.
“As I was watching the object slowly move from east to west, suddenly it stopped and appeared to hover. Then object’s five orange-ish tint lights dimmed briefly and the diamond UFO just winked out and wasn’t seen again.”
In another sighting on Long Island in the town of Commack, NY, a resident was watching television when he noticed a bright light out of his living room window. He tells us that he went outside to his porch to get a better look and saw a bright diamond UFO traveling from North to South.
“It appeared to be about 1/16 the size of the moon.”
While he was watching the object, he was stunned to see a second diamond UFO following the first one he had seen.
“Both of the objects stopped, seemed to hover then suddenly went straight up and out of sight. The whole sighting last perhaps four minutes”
A study of National UFO Reporting Center (NUFORC) and Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) data suggests that Diamond UFO sightings were really quite rare until relatively recently.
Records prior to 1950 report virtually no diamond UFO sightings. The decades of the 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s sport sighting levels with an average of about two sightings per decade. Around the year 2001, diamond UFO sightings suddenly spiked to eight and leveled off to a little under a dozen per year.
Then in 2009, diamond UFO sightings rose substantially; these UFOs began appearing in New York Skies at a rate of about a dozen a year, as evidenced by the following chart.
At first this reporter thought this rise in sightings might be an artifact of reporting. After a quick analysis of other classes of UFOs, I determined that a variety of other types of UFOs were relative constant in numbers from year to year except for a gradual rising trend in overall sightings. So in my opinion, this large increase of diamond UFO sightings is a relatively recent occurrence and needs to be studied.
World sightings for diamond shaped UFOs have obviously been on the rise. But the story gets bigger when we begin looking at the global numbers. For example, the combined diamond UFO sightings reported to both the MUFON and NUFORC for 2014 total about 234 globally; giving New York State about 3% of the world diamond UFO sightings. I hope other investigators in the UFO research community will continue to monitor these increasing numbers.

McMinnville, Oregon - May 11, 1950: Two of the most notorious UFO photos of all time were taken on a farm near Mcminnville by a farmer named Paul A. Trent. Beyond many such cases, these two photos have withstood the test of time--through generations of researchers. It could be said that this case specified the boiling point for the heated ongoing debate over what qualifies as physical evidence--at least when it comes to the subject of UFOs.
Mrs. Trent was outside getting finished feeding her rabbits, when she noticed the large, disc-shaped object approaching from the northeast. She called out to Mr. Trent who joined her to look at the mystery device. After a few moments, he went back in the house to get his camera. He got back out and picked a spot to stand and took the first picture, then wound the film for the next picture. (That was typically a time consuming process with a 1950 box camera.) Several minutes later, he took the other.
In the meantime, Mrs. Trent called out to her in-laws on their porch, about 400 feet away. They didn't hear her, so she ran into the house to call them on the telephone. Mrs. Trent's mother-in-law didn't get to see it because it disappeared by the time she was off of the phone, but Mrs. Trent's father-in-law did catch a glimpse of it just before it disappeared in the west.
Mr. Trent waited to finish the roll of film before he got the pictures developed. They were displayed nearly a month later in a local bank. (The Trents' banker worked there.) A reporter named Powell, who worked for the McMinnville Telephone Register, saw the photos and convinced the Trents to let him publish their story and photographs. However, it did take a bit of coaxing because the Trent's feared they might get in some kind of trouble with the government.
The photographs and story wound up in the June 26, 1950 issue of Life, who borrowed the negatives from Powell. The Trents didn't get the negatives back for another 17 years. They were requested for examination by the Condon investigation in the late 1960's, and after that analysis was done, they were finally sent back to Mr. Trent.
The first people to examine the negatives found no signs of manipulation of the negative and no visible means of support for the UFO pictured, and so it has remained, for over half a century. No scientific study of this case has ever revealed anything that contradicts the witnesses or their fortunate photos. (NURMUFO)

On May 6, 1978, at about 4:15 p.m., something crashed into a mountain near El Taire on the Bermejo River, the border between the Bolivian province of Tarija and Argentina. Thousands of people saw this happening and later described the object as being cylindrical in shape with a flaming tail. It had caused a supersonic bang that was heard up to 150 miles away.

On May 6, 1978, at about 4:15 p.m., something crashed into a mountain near El Taire on the Bermejo River, the border between the Bolivian province of Tarija and Argentina. Thousands of people saw this happening and later described the object as being cylindrical in shape with a flaming tail. It had caused a supersonic bang that was heard up to 150 miles away and that cracked windowpanes as far away as 30 miles in every direction. The next day, the papers were speculating on what had come down in that godforsaken place. The explanations ranged from meteorites to UFOs and belated reentry of some Apollo capsule. All of them referred to statements of eye witnesses.
Then it was announced that the Argentinian authorities had sent the 20th unit of the border police to the area in question to look for wreckage on their side of the border. The search in that mountainous country could last for weeks, so swarms of reporters went to the nearest big town, Aguas Blancas, to take up quarters there and await further developments, as well as to interview eyewitnesses in the town. And in fact, there were a number of witnesses who claimed to have seen the object. Most of them described it as oval or cylindrical and metallic. The army, too, seemed to be convinced that it was a UFO. Corporal Natalio Farfan Ruiz, the commandant of a small border police unit at the little village of La Marmora (800 inhabitants), confirmed the crash to Argentinian reporters saying: "It was about 4:30 p.m. when a cylindrical object made the earth tremble. Just imagine what would have happened if the UFO had fallen on the houses!" Policeman Juan Hurtado had also seen what had happened: "It looked like a gigantic wine container emitting a trace of white smoke. I saw it clearly. It flew directly above my head. I was on duty and at that moment was talking with three engineers from the mine in La Paz, when we saw the object crashing into the El Taire mountain. The impact was so strong that it threw me to the ground. The earth trembled at that moment."
Finally, the Bolivian Air Force sent three single-motored AT6 airplanes—a model from World War II—to the area and discovered the crash site on the southern slope of the El Taire mountain. Whereas the pilots found it impossible to land anywhere near it, the newspaper Clarin of Buenos Aires announced on May 14, that the object had been found. As proof, they quoted the police chief of Tarija: "Our men have discovered the object and inspected it, but have received no instructions for further action. It is a dull metallic cylinder twelve feet long with a few dents. No one knows what is inside it, and we are awaiting the arrival of various technical commissions. A NASA expert is also expected to arrive tomorrow morning."
As a matter of fact, no NASA expert came at Tarija.-Instead, two U.S. Air Force officers, Col. Robert Simmons and Maj. John Heise arrived. According to a newspaper, although these officers were officially on leave, they had been instructed to take the object to the United States in a Hercules C-130 transport machine, which was waiting for them at La Paz. When other newspapers made inquiries at the American Embassy regarding this secret mission of Simmons and Heise they were met with a denial. Only two years later, 5 relevant documents were released by the U.S. State Department: they revealed that Simmons and Heise had been assigned to the military attache of the U.S. Embassy in La Paz and did, in fact, fly to Tarija accompanied by an officer of the Bolivian Air Force, in connection with Project Moon Dust.
The first of these documents was a telex sent by the U.S. Ambassador in Bolivia, Paul H. Boeker, to the State Department. In that, he quoted newspaper reports and requested the department "to ask the relevant agencies whether they could explain what this object could be," adding "during the last week, more and more UFO reports are coming from this region." The answer was a telex classified "secret" dated May 18 in which the U.S. Secretary of State Cyrus Vance personally declared: "Preliminary information has been checked with appropriate government agencies. No direct correlation with known space objects that may have reentered the earth's atmosphere near May 6 can be made. However we are continuing to examine any possibilities."
He then referred the embassy to "State aerogram A-6343" of July 26, 1973, classified 'Secret,' "which provides background information and guidance for dealing with space objects. In particular any information pertaining to the pre-impact observations, direction of trajectory, number of objects observed, time of impact and detailed description, including any markings would be helpful." The next document was a "Moon Dust Message" of the office of the U.S. military attache, dated May 24, addressed to the Division for Foreign Technologies at the Wright Patterson Air Force Base and the headquarters of the U.S. Air Force at the Pentagon, classified as "confidential NOFORN (No Forwarding To Foreign Nationals)." Under reference Moon Dust, the military attache at La Paz reported that "they had taken pains to verify the press reports. " In addition to that, they had asked the general staff of the Bolivian Air Force and the chiefs of the Bolivian Army who had declared—apparently after a first unsuccessful attempt— "we have sent search troops to the area in question but have found nothing. " The army came to the conclusion that there could have been an object there, or maybe not, but to date they had found nothing. The attache added that he would send two officials to Tarija and promised, "We will keep you informed if anything turns up. " These "two officials," we can assume, were Simmons and Heise.
Regrettably, no further reports concerning the Simmons-Heise expedition were released and, to get a picture of what happened, we are forced to rely on reports in the Argentinian press. Apparently, however, nobody came to the conclusion that a meteorite had hit the earth. At the world-famous Smithsonian Institution there is a data bank of scientific occurrences, or an "alarm network," that keeps track of every volcanic eruption, every earthquake and every meteorite collision since 1973 with painstaking accuracy. The data bank reveals no mention of a meteorite falling during May 1978 at the Bolivian-Argentinian border. The Air Force documents reveal that the 1127th field activities group, which coordinated Project Moon Dust, was interested in another task besides the recoveiy of UFO wrecks and other space objects, represented by the code name HUMINT. This code name, short for Human Intelligence, means the collection of information from human sources through clandestine undercover methods—in contrast to interrogations, reading through files and correspondence, etc. In other words, it meant the collection of information about UFOs from reliable sources through a game of deceit. The method which was chosen to achieve HUMINTs goals was so bizarre that nobody outside the UFO community would believe it. It was the birth of the "Men In Black," subject of a Hollywood blockbuster movie in 1997.

Kelly Cahill Abduction
Kelly Cahill Abduction
Date: August 8, 1993 Location: Dandenong foothills, Australia
In August 1993, 27-year-old Kelly Cahill, her husband and three children were driving home after a visit to a friend's house. After midnight the Cahills first noticed the lights of a rounded craft with windows around it. It silently hovered above the road. Different colored lights were clearly visible on the bottom of the object.

AN EXTRAORDINARY ENCOUNTER IN THE DANDENONG FOOTHILLS Bill Chalker, International UFO Reporter, Sept/Oct 1994, Vol 19, No 5
As a scientist I am always aware of the maxim that extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. To date Mainstream UFO events have revealed some compelling evidence for their physical reality. The challenge for researchers has always been to determine if that evidence is consistent with an alien reality. Comparable evidence to support the reality of abduction events has been lacking Or relatively uncompelling.
In my two decades of research into Australian abduction claims, it has been difficult not to hold the position that abduction cases have perhaps told me more about the human condition than they have about UFOs. What follows, however, is a report On an affair which may amount to evidence for a reality behind abduction reports.
Kelly Cahill, a 27 -year-old housewife and mother of three children, is a pivotal figure in a remarkable episode which may have much to tell experiencers and researchers alike. She contacted me on October 4, 1993, seeking assistance in understanding a bizarre experience she underwent near the outer Melbourne suburban housing estate of Narre Warren North, in the foothills of the Dandenongs, Victoria, between Belgrave and Fountain Gate, during the early hours of August 8, 1993.
Kelly told me that apart from her husband with her in their car, she was aware of another vehicle farther down the hill from their own position. That car contained at least two persons, a man and a woman. She paid little heed to them at the time because she and her husband had their attention riveted on a massive UFO which had landed in the field opposite them.
Because Kelly lived in Victoria and I live in New South Wales, I passed details of Kelly's experience on to John Auchettl of Phenomena Research Australia (PRA) and urged Kelly to contact him. PRA got on the case immediately .
By November 17 PRA had located the man and woman Kelly had seen that night. It turned out that the couple also had a friend (a woman) with them. These witnesses took Auchettl to the encounter site, to a spot consistent with Kelly's description. The group's drawings of the UFO and entities also closely coincide with Kelly' s.
Here we have a striking situation. Two groups of persons unknown to each other have witnessed the same UFO encounter and entities. They also experienced missing time, and each group has been available to competent investigators. Independent witnesses have provided information which enable cross-checking and correlations to reveal a remarkable amount of similar information. The result is a compelling case for the reality of the strange events.described. The ontological status of the events is further strengthened by a range of apparently related physical traces, including ground traces, a magnetic anomaly, and effects on some of the witnesses.
What is perhaps even more extraordinary about this case is that the second group described seeing yet another car parked farther back down from them. In it was (it appeared) one male who seemed to be gazing fixedly toward the encounter site. So we have the situation of three cars present: Kelly and her husband in one near the top of a hill, the three-person group (Bill, Jan, and Glenda) another 150 meters down the hill, and the other car, with one visible occupant, about 25 to 30 meters farther back.
The first two cars were parked with their lights off. The other had its lights on. This circumstance may explain an apparent anomaly, in that Kelly was able to glance down and spot the second car, with what to her seemed only two persons (in fact three), but the group of three could not see Kelly, her husband, or their car. It was a dark and cloudy night. Evidently Kelly could see the second car only because it was backlit by the headlights of the third car.
From the trio' s testimony, investigators could determine the location of this third car. The male was looking at the UFO's position through a break in the vegetation cover. The trio's evidence coupled with Kelly' s allowed for triangulation of the encounter site with the UFO. The location was consistent with the anomalies discovered (to be discussed later). Unfortunately, this potential additional witness has yet to be found.
Typically witnesses to these sorts of events are known to each other, and such relationships often beg the question of whether the witnessed events have emerged from shared delusions or even collusion. Through Auchettl, Kelly became aware of the independent witnesses, but they knew nothing of her existence until quite recently. Kelly tried hard to persuade Auchettl to give her the other group' s names, but he refused because he wanted to maintain the integrity of the testimony. Only when the investigation was completed did the three learn what Kelly had been saying. So far they have not attempted to contact her. PRA has uncovered no evidence of a previous connection between the Cahills and the other group.
After the encounter Kelly' s recollection faded from conscious memory, despite animated discussions about it with her husband in the immediate wake of the incident. Her husband remembered at least the UFO encounter but not the entities and has not acknowledged the missing time. It was her husband' s reference to the August 8 event at a barbecue on September 16 that led to Kelly's initial confused attempts to reconcile this troubling situation. Kelly found this temporary amnesia along, especially since she has vivid memories going all the way back to age two.
Other events began to be seen in a different and bizarre perspective. These included a "dream" she had immediately after the encounter, upon getting home and going to sleep on August 8, and two "dreamings" in September. Each involved (apparently) the same entities as those encountered on the road. The latter two "dreamings" had a strange physical dimension. A further two "dreamings" followed, one on October 23 and the last during January 1994.
Alarmed, Kelly sought help with little success from universities and aviation authorities. The latter gave her two UFO contact numbers, one in Victoria and mine in Sydney.
After getting no satisfaction from the Victorian group, she contacted me, and after our preliminary discussion of her experience, the PRA investigation commenced.
What follows is the transcript of an interview Kelly gave to my associate Robb Tilley on March 21 of this year.
The details are consistent with those recounted to me on October 4, 1993, in numerous conversations with me since then, with the PRA investigation, and with a manuscript she is writing about her experience.
THE INCIDENT
My husband and I were driving to my girl friend's place up in the mountains. It was her daughter's . . . birthday.
It was just after dark, and we were nearly there, about half an hour from her place. It takes us about an hour and a half from our place. It was just after 7.
[The area has] little bits of field . . . and then you run right into a major shopping centre. . . .
My husband drives really fast. . . . I'm just busy looking out the window . It's turned dark, and I look over towards this field as we are going past, and I see a ring of orange lights. It was the first time I ever thought I had seen something that wasn' t normal. . . . I was going to shut my mouth. I thought, "No, he' s just going to have a go at me." But a couple of minutes up the road I said, "I swear I saw a UFO." He said, "Don't be stupid! It was probably a helicopter." I said, "It wasn't making any noise. It was just sitting on the ground. Anyway, after a few jibes at me, he forgot all about it, and we arrived at [my girl friend's place].
When we were there, my friends bring up this conversation, about what I thought I had seen. Her father says, "You think you've seen little green men or something, . Kelly?" and all this sort of stuff. It was turned into a joke, and I just totally forgot about it.
We went out and played bingo. We came back. We had a bit of a problem about what time we left. As far as my husband's concerned, because we got home at 2:30 in the morning, it means we must have left at one o'clock.
But that night I think we left at a quarter to 12. We got back from bingo at about 1 1, and we didn't stay for very long because [my friend's] daughter' s boy friend had just . . . split up with her and had gone home with the new girl friend . . . and she was really upset and crying, and we didn't want to stay. So we weren't there for that long at all.
THE ENCOUNTER BEGINS
Anyway, we were driving back down the road in the same stretch. Both of us,just me and my husband . . . we both saw this ring, mind you ... . in front of us, hovering above the road. It was just something sitting there. . . . I couldn't tell what it was. We were at first far away, but as you got closer to it was sort of . . . well, it wasn't like the orange light in the field. It was a round shape with some sort of glass around, or what looked like windows and lights around the bottom. Because it was dark, you couldn't really tell at first. But as we got closer and closer, there was no noise or anything.
Even my husband's going. "You're right! That's something. That's very, very strange." And I swear we saw people in there, and then just as I said to him, "I swear there's people in there," it just shot off to the left as fast as it could go. I mean it just disappeared. Within a split second it had gone.
We kept driving and about a kilometre ahead, all of a sudden, there's this really, really bright light in front of us, and I've got my hand up, up above my brow, to look out the window, because it's that bright, but I can't see anything.
I said to [my husband], "What are you going to do?" He said, "l'm going to keep driving." From there, that is the last we remembered until . . . I knew I was going to see a UFO, you know, I just knew, because of what we had seen, I'd seen it twice in one night and he had seen it once . . . and the adrenalin is pumping, the heart is thumping, I'm so excited. All of a sudden I'm sitting in the car, and I'm saying to my husband, "What happened?" And he says to me, "I don't know. We must have gone around a corner or something." By the time we got home, he was definite of everything, but at that time he didn't know what happened either. I said to him, "I swear I've had a blackout," because adrenalin just doesn't disappear in a split second like that. I mean your heart is going mad! And all of a sudden. . . .
One thing that really annoyed me was that I could smell vomit. I couldn't figure out where the smell of vomit was coming from.
I argue about this half the way home until it started getting ridiculous, and I ended up just shutting up to stop all the fighting that was going to come out of it, you know, because we fight like cats and dogs. . . .
As we were getting close to our home, about 20 minutes away from where we live (there was no one on the road), I saw a figure standing on the side of the road a tall dark figure. It was only for a couple of seconds, and I didn't relate it to anything until much later on at all. But it made me turn my head. I kept it in my mind, because it reminded me of a story I was told when I was a little girl about the headless horseman on the side of the road . . .because it was on the side of the road. It wasn't headless or anything,just this tall black figure. I saw it for only a couple of seconds, and then I couldn't see it anymore, but I thought I saw it.
POST ENCOUNTER FALLOUT
I get home. That night I actually had a dream about UFOs to top it all off, that something happened . . . but a whole lot of it went out of my head.
Kelly and her husband argued about what happened for part of the way home. They agree they saw a UFO but cannot agree on the feeling Kelly had of experiencing a blackout or missing time and seeing people. They also could both smell vomit. Each experienced unexplained stomach pain. For Kelly it was like a pain from severe muscle fatigue which radiated from her lower abdomen to the upper shoulders.
Later, after they got home, Kelly experienced menstrual bleeding and became quite ill. She had had her period only the week before. Eventually she entered the hospital with a womb infection. The doctors there said she must have been pregnant; either that, or she had had some kind of gynaecological operation. In fact, she had had neither in recent times. A strange triangular mark was also found on her abdomen along with a scar.
Kelly elaborated on these matters: But when I got home that night, that's when I found the triangular mark below my navel, with what I thought was a little laparoscopy cut, and I also started bleeding that night. Three and a half weeks later I ended up in hospital... . . [The hospital] actually did a laparoscopy, another laparoscopy. This was not when I first went in. I went back in later, another six weeks after that, because I had a lot of pains in my stomach and just wanted to have it checked to see what it was. And I still had the triangular mark there. . . .
They just did a blooming laparoscopy cut right next to it. [There was] no comment whatsoever. . . . I have a letter from a friend saying that she saw it.
CONSCIOUS RECOLLECTIONS
Kelly's recollections did not come from any hypnosis. Indeed she had only one session well after the main investigation had been completed. It failed to reveal anything of significance. Feeling that at best she had been only lightly under, she felt the session had been of little value.
With regard to the August 8 encounter, she recalls crossing the road to the paddock, seeing at first one tall black being with glowing red eyes, then many. These latter seemed to be approaching rapidly, as if gliding. The large group of tall black beings apparently were split into two groups, one focused on Kelly and her husband, the other one on the other people who had also crossed farther down the road. The rest of her recollection is largely confusing and fragmented. She experienced voices and blindness.
Kelly elaborated on how her memory came back: We went down to a girl friend's place a little bit later, a few weeks later, and the subject of UFOs came up, and her husband was saying, "Oh, I don't think they really exist." It was my husband that said, "If you had seen what Kelly and I saw, you might change your mind." I said, "What are you talking about?" You know, if I'd seen something, I'd have remembered it. I didn't even remember that I had seen it hovering in the middle of the road. It had been totally blanked out of my mind. And I search my head for days, because I knew he wouldn't say something if he didn't mean it. He was telling me, "Remember, on the way home from [your girl friend's], remember, it wasn't making any noise?" And I was just sitting there. I couldn't remember it.
And a few days later, all of a sudden I remembered it! It hit me! And .. . . then I remembered going into the light, and then I couldn't remember anything else. A couple of weeks after that, this started to really bug me, because I remembered that light, and I remember arguing with him all the wayhome, but it was all I did remember.
I went up to [my girl friend's] house again in October, this time for her other daughter's . . .birthday, and again we went to bingo. On the way home from bingo that night, we went along the same road, and as we passed a certain spot I just got this incredible feeling of terror go through me, I mean absolute terror. All of a sudden I just started remembering, and by the next morning I had remembered just about everything that happened, except there's still missing time that I can't.
What we had actually done, we had driven . . . into the light, but the road curved, and the light we had thought was in front of us was actually to our right-hand side. It was in the field, and it was massive. . . . [Estimates put the possible diameter of the UFO at the "size of a house" or perhaps close to 5O meters.] So it was very big.Why I knew it was very big was because we could have driven for five minutes. The road sort of wound around this part.
You could have driven for five minutes and not had it out of your sight the whole time.
Kelly and her husband had a clear, uninterrupted view of a craft of enormous size. It was much larger than the UFO seen a few minutesearlier, and it was at ground level in the field at the bottom of a gully area.
I asked him to stop the car, and we both got out. I remembered leaning back in, actually on the floor, to pick up my handbag, because I didn't go anywhere without my handbag. And that' s one of the sort of things that triggered off a lot of these memories doing that. The other thing was telling myself, "You are conscious. This is real! This is happening! This is real!". . . .
For a while it was just absolutely terrifying, but you can't help it because it sounds really wacky. I mean this is not the way it's supposed to happen at all. . . .
We crossed over the road. We jumped the gutter, and we walked up. . .I looked down the road, and there was another car-a light blue car-pulled up. Some people got out and went across the road. I only thought it was two, but it was actually three, but I didn' t pay much attention. They must have been at least a hundred meters down the road from us. When you've got something like that in front of you, and you' we got people down the road . . . well, I was more interested in what was in front of me than them, so I didn't get any detail. . . .
I'm standing there, and we are looking at this thing [for about 3O seconds]. All of a sudden there is a black figure on the field. It's about seven foot tall. . . . I knew it was really tall at the time.
For Kelly this was quite startling. She expected to see a human being, but this was not human. Kelly tried to use thought as a means of communication. She was immediately overwhelmed with fear. Its eyes seemed to turn to a red fire.
At the distance of about 150 meters, they possessed an extraordinary luminosity .
It started coming towards us, only slowly, and it had big red eyes. It sounds stupid, but it had great big round red eyes, like huge flies' eyes and they were red like, not like a reflection of red, but like burning red, like . . . fluorescent stop lights, I suppose, that sort of real burning red.
All of a sudden I started screaming out [to my husbands. . . . Now this has really got me baffled because of the fact that a human being doesn't know this, so I don't even know how I came out with this, but I started saying, "They've got no souls." And then I started screaming, "THEY'VE GOT NO SOULS!" Then all of a sudden there were heaps of them in the field, not just one, a whole heap of them, and they started coming towards us . . . faster than a man could run, and they were gliding off the ground. They got halfway across the field.
They split up. Some of them went towards the other people [two or three, Kelly thought]. and some of them [the rest] came towards us. Kelly found herself screaming to the other people down the road, "They're evil! They're going to kill us!"
The next thing I know, I felt this oomph! in my stomach, right across here like I was winded, but I was thrown right back, and I was on my back on the ground. I sat up, with my head between my knees. Here, I'm trying to stay conscious. I couldn't see. My eyes. . . . It was all black.
.. . . I'm screaming out to [my husband]. . . .
Kelly speculated that her "winding" may have been caused by an electric fence present at the site. That may or may not be true. The fence may not even have been on at the time. Even if it was, the power may not have been strong enough to generate the effect she described. Nonetheless this possibly prosaic incident led her into confusion over whether the forces she was confronting were "good" or "evil."
But the next thing I heard him saying, "Let go of me." His voice was all sort of cracked up with fear, and I'd never heard that from my husband. He's not frightened or afraid of anything. . . .
Then this male voice said, "We [don't] mean you any harm." And then he said, "Why did you hit Kelly then?" That's the last I heard of [my husband]. No one else talked except me. I heard the male voice. Then I heard myself saying, "Oh, God, I'm going to be sick." I've got my head between my knees, and I just felt, like, violently nauseous. Then I must have blacked out for a little while.
I don't remember being sick. Then I remember hearing talk about being a peaceful people, and I started screaming out, I said, "Don't believe them! They're going to steal your souls!" I know it sounds so ridiculous now, but at the time I was hysterically terrified. . . . I had never felt terror like that. Not even in my worst nightmares had I experienced terror like that. . . .
Oh, there's one thing I remember that he said: "I wouldn't harm her. She's my daughter." Now when I first saw the-on the way up to [my girl friend's] in the field, the first thing I did was pray. And I took it as sarcasm straight away. And it sounded like sarcasm. . . .
It sounded like there was even a small laugh after that. I don't know-it just wasn't good to me.
For Kelly, a strong faith in God often involved an ability to get answers to many of life's situations, albeit sometimes in the most subtle and unlikely ways. For her the brief observation of a possible UFO on the way to her girl friend's place on August 7 was perhaps a glimpse of one of life's mysteries, perhaps even a lesson from God. So she made a silent prayer which began with "Father." She thought for a moment, "Wait for me. I'll be back down this way in a few hours." To put this in context, it should be pointed out that Kelly had long been on a spiritual quest, anchored in a religious journey and a desire to understand the great mysteries.
Though she had little time for organized religions, she had a deep interest in the great religious works and had studied them, particularly the Bible, in great detail. Therefore, given her brief prayer for clarification of the nature of the UFO event on the way up to her friend, as well as the use of the word Father, she got a sense of "mockery" when she heard the voice saying, "She is my daughter."
Anyway, I started screaming and going on about demons trying to steal people's souls. . . . I like not to admit that it came from my mouth, but it did. . . . But I'm going to tell it the way it is.
Next thing I hear him saying, "Would somebody do something about .her?" And I felt a hand . . . touch my shoulder. It wasn't hard. It was quite gentle.That's when I absolutely cracked! I'm still sitting on the ground, and I couldn't see a thing, but I made sure that my eyes were just fierce. . . . Something snapped in me. Before that I was crying. All of a sudden something snapped in me, and I got so angry . Then I started screaming out, "How dare you do this to these innocent people?" Like it was my fault. Because I was on a big spiritual search, and I really got the impression that it was my fault. And I thought, why involve other people?. . . I felt like, almost like there was a fight for me. Like it was something I had to do. . . .
Anyway, I started screaming out stupid things, told them to go back where they came from. Next thing I remember I was sitting in the car. I've still got missing time.
When she found herself sitting in the car, her last memory was of driving into the light.
THE DREAM OF AUGUST 8, 1993
Once she was home and asleep, the night brought a bizarre dream. This dream is of interest in that it emerged within hours of the encounter and it places Kelly back in the encounter. The subsequent "dreamings" do not have this quality about them. Nonetheless they were unusual in their own way, for reasons that will shortly be apparent.
In the August 8 dream she is on the side of the road with her head between her knees. She becomes aware that she can see again. A being is leading her husband down the slope onto the field. Throughout the dream she is unable to see the beings above the level of their elbows. Their limbs seem long and thin.
Inexplicably convinced that the being with her husband is female, she tackles it and then blacks out. In the dream she once again regains consciousness to find herself on the extreme right of the field with the UFO further down the field to the left. Before her on the ground is a still body, at first nonhuman, then changing to human. A middle-aged woman standing further down the field is screaming at her, "Murderess! Murderess!" She is overcome with grief with no awareness of having killed anyone.
Still in the dream, a hand on her shoulder leads her, and she follows obediently. Eventually Kelly becomes aware that she is in a small room, with only a small table and a being standing before her. The being tells her she did not kill anyone and they had to use her sense of morality to overcome her fear. Kelly has a profound feeling that she knows this being. On a table behind the being is a Bible, one of hers, which had disappeared a few weeks before. The being gives Kelly a strange choice which deepens her suspicion of the beings' motives. She is told she can come but must leave the Bible behind. In the dream the being gives her this Bible.
The dream ends at that point. A few days after the encounter, her husband found the Bible in the car.
The "dreamings" mentioned earlier, first interpreted as something like a ghostly episode, take on a bizarre perspective when Kelly's recollections flooded back. The first two preceded the point when more complete recall of the events of August 8 returned.
THE "DREAMINGS"
The first started with a presence which warns her to be calm. Then a frightening "sucking" sensation begins as if something is being taken from her. She comes out of the dream terrified and is confronted by a tall black figure in a floor length hooded cloak, about seven feet tall, with glowing red eyes. She screams, and the being disappears.
Initially Kelly interpreted the being as like a "soul vampire" or the Grim Reaper. At the time she did not place this incident in a UFO context, since the memories had yet to resurface.
In the second "dreaming" she experiences her legs being lifted and drawn out of the bed. She wakes and once again finds the same or similar being present, but this time the cloak obscures the eyes.
When after I did remember it, I had another dream, and these dreams seemed very physical. I know I'm dreaming, and I've got to wake up out of them. . . .
In this particular one, I felt as if my legs were being pulled off the bed, and it was like I was paralysed from my waist down, and my legs were being pulled over to the side; yet I could almost use the top of my body. Then I'm grabbing a pillow, trying to hit my husband, to wake him up. . . . I'm fighting this. I'm not going to let this thing drag me off the bed by my legs. Then I woke up and saw it standing there again! This time the hood covered the eyes, and it didn't scare me. . . . I was still terrified, but it didn't scare me quite as much, because each time it scared me, it was that same power like I felt out in the field that night.
When I was sitting on the ground, it was like something, almost like a frequency or a sound vibration or something. And it's getting right into my head! And I couldn't get it together. Like I was trying to get my logical thoughts together, not logical, almost conscious thoughts, and I was fighting it the whole time, which is probably why I seemed to remember more than my husband or even the other people.
The third "dreaming" occurred at a friend' s place on October23 (see front cover). By then Kelly had experienced the flood of recollections. The two earlier "dreamings" took on an added significance, especially given the presence of the beings after Kelly had awakened from her "dreamings." This time she wakes from a "dreaming" which seems to take the form of a "peak experience" (as psychologist Abraham Maslow calls it; Richard Maurice Bucke defined it as the sense of"cosmic consciousness"). She sees apparently the same creature as before; but unlike earlier manifestations, it is naked and leaning over her as if about to kiss her navel area. It is tall, with a head much larger than normal, long and thin arms, with an abdomen out of proportion to its thin frame, like a child's stomach suffering from malnutrition.
Its skin is like gray-black plasticine. Kelly's screams turn into an "uninterrupted stream of hysteria" and words.
In the morning she insisted that her husband check under the car. She had heard a distinct voice during the night urging such a check. He ignored her request, but their car subsequently suffered such a problem.
Numerous other "psychic" events and "electrical disturbances" followed. Frequently their car started up when no one was inside it. The vehicle had a kill switch which rendered these events even more startling and curious. Kelly thought she had developed enhanced psychic powers. The electrical events apparently ended in January 1994, as did many of the psychic incidents.
The fourth "dreaming" occurred in January of this year.
In the dream the bathroom light is blown. There is a sense of presence. Something persistently tries to grab Kelly's right hand. Eventually she lets her hand be taken. Immediately she wakes up. Once again the creature in the black robe is standing by her bedside. It goes away. It turned out that the light had indeed blown and that diamond and sapphire rings .she wore on her right hand had disappeared. To date they have not been found.
OTHER MATTERS
Other, earlier episodes, experiences, and issues of possible significance: . From July through September 1993 small orange fireballs, about the size of tennis balls, frequently hit the windows of the house. Kelly, her husband, and her mother witnessed the phenomena.
o About two and a half years earlier, at Lalor, Kelly had a peculiar dream in which she moved through a flesh-like hourglass apparatus. The same night she experienced a "vision" of opening their back door and seeing a light for a few seconds. Then she blacked out. Kelly experienced the same sense of power she felt in the field in August 1993.
o After the encounter and until July 1994, the Cahill house (built in 1949) had been the scene of fleeting observations of tall "shadows," seen by both Kelly and her husband.
o A bad smell occasionally permeated the house and seemed to move around.
THE OTHER WITNESSES
If the August 8 encounter had revolved only around Kelly, it could be argued that the experience may have been some sort of psychological episode. But the presence of other witnesses - a married couple and their friend, plus a possible other observer in a third car-forcefully argues for a real encounter. Indeed, the PRA contends that the focus of the incident was not Kelly but the two other women.
As in Kelly' s situation, the females in the other group seemed to play a dominant role. Bill, the male witness in the trio, appears, like Kelly's husband, to have had only limited involvement. The two women consciously recalled onboard episodes. They remembered the UFO and the tall black beings. Their description did not feature the red eyes Kelly saw.
For the trio the experience apparently started when they approached the site. All three could hear a strange noise and suddenly felt ill. Bill thought he was going to faint. He lost control of the car and ran off the road, striking a pole. After checking for damage, they drove off. A few minutes later a speeding car with its high beams on shot past them. Then another passed. They came to a bridge with a sharp turn following it almost immediately. Farther along this section the trio stopped. As all this was going on, Bill's vision was impaired. Obviously he had Some type of vision as he was driving, but he was unable to remember seeing the UFO. The two women with him recall the UFO clearly, and their descriptions closely match Kelly's.
In some unexplained manner Bill was isolated from the central experience. He has conscious recall of smells and sounds and remembers that a lot of activity was going on. He does not recall seeing anything. He subsequently underwent hypnosis, which expanded his apparent recollections to seeming onboard components, but once again these were through the senses of smell and hearing only.
The two women did not think of theirs as an "abduction" experience. They felt as if they had exercised free will all through it. Yet the principal element of their onboard experience was a form of examination-not, however, visually remembered. Other parts of their onboard experience exist in visual images and conscious memory. Hypnosis in their cases appears to have only reinforced what they recall already.
The entities did not speak and provided very little information. Neither woman saw the other or any of the others while in the alien environment presumably aboard the UFO. Curiously, each was still aware of what was happening to her companion, ostensibly through psychic means.
The trio apparently did not have the complex background experiences described by Kelly. Their experience seem limited only to the August 8 encounter.
There is also some physical evidence. PRA found a possible related ground trace and low-level magnetic anomaly at the encounter site.
COMMENT
Kelly has gone on to write her own account of the experience and its difficult aftermath. In October 1994 John Auchettl and PRA, whose investigative thoroughness is to be commended, released a comprehensive report on the affair. In this emotionally explosive area it is easy for people to get caught up in less than satisfactory situations while they attempt to understand extraordinary experiences. I hope this event and the documentation that flows from it will be of some help to others in similar situations.
The victims of these experiences must not be unrealistically encouraged by advocates of an alien presence; nor, at the other extreme, should they be ridiculed by the sceptical among us. They should be helped to deal with their experiences, whether those experiences turn out to be prosaic or profound in origin. The second part of this report will review the PRA report and examine in detail the accounts of the other group of witnesses. It will also consider the physical evidence and provide reflections on the nature and meaning of this event.
Update (12/6/02) The Cahill case, PRA & openness:
It should be noted that the above "comment" in the 1994 IUR report was prepared on the assumption that the "PRA comprehensive report on the affair" was about to be released. Despite nearly a decade passing, John Auchettl and PRA have not released their report other than a few fragments of information.
As the researcher responsible for passing Kelly Cahill onto PRA in the first place, principally because I am NSW based and the incident occurred in Victoria, I have to say now that that decision was, in hindsight, a mistake.
My comment in my 1994 IUR report: "John Auchettl and PRA, whose investigative thoroughness is to be commended", was based entirely on conversations with Auchettl and discussions with Kelly Cahill at the time (1993-1994), and in retrospect should have been qualified more accurately. While Auchettl & PRA may well have been thorough in their investigation, in reality there has been no way to absolutely verify this, because of their unwillingness to release their report and data on the case. PRA have offered some seemingly unusual and convoluted explanations for this lack of sharing.
I have long encouraged openness and sharing in UFO research (my web site is in part an expression of my position on this matter). My attempts to encourage PRA in this direction, from my perspective, have been very disappointing, and have instead lead me to not to refer cases to John Auchettl and PRA. Unless PRA changes their apparent lack of transparency and openness, researchers and witnesses should carefully consider the wisdom of cooperating with Phenomena Research Australia (PRA).

Extraterrestial Disclosure: Are We Ready? Are YOU...?
Extraterrestial Disclosure: Are We Ready? Are YOU...?
February 25, 2015 - When in his final tweet as a presidential adviser, John Podesta said that he was disappointed that he had been unable to achieve release of still secret UFO files in 2014, the general media at first assumed that it was a joke. When his past record on the subject became clear and it was realized that he wasn't joking, most outlets fell silent. The New York Times, the Washington Post and the Wall Street Journal were all silent. And yet it's major news when a man of Podesta's stature, not to say his access to classified documents, says something like that.
The silence is telling. It comes because the major media has a seventy year long commitment to the idea that there are no aliens here and the whole subject is nonsense. Scientists and intellectuals, in general, take the same position. The general public, on the other hand, is either indifferent or mildly interested. Religious authorities, led by the Catholic Church, seem more able to face this possibility than those of us who are at the forefront of human exploration, as are scientists and intellectuals.
Years ago at the World Affairs Conference at the University of Colorado, I talked with astronaut Rusty Schweikart about this resistance. He said, "I guess I don't want the way to Mars to be a well-worn path." I thought that, in those few words, he made an enormously important point. The people at the leading edge fear disempowerment. We are trying to find ourselves and our place in the universe, and our scientists and humanists are the ones making the discoveries and gaining the insights.
For example, NASA is just now beginning to think about the possibility of interstellar travel. What happens if that's trumped and turns out to be a commonplace? Generations of exploration will never happen. And what of the mysteries of culture and being that are addressed in philosophy? What if there is a definitive answer to the fundamental philosophical question, 'Why is there something rather than nothing?'
How can we bear to go from our present place in discovery to the end of it? If we come into contact, that could be something we must face. Unless, of course, contact is not what it seems.
And, in fact, that might very well be the case. Not that aliens may not be involved, but rather that 'alien' is the wrong word to describe them. I think that a good beginning would be to discard the 'us' vs. 'them' assumption and start with a new one: we don't know what they are, no more than we know what we are.
In this way we can replace what are already tired assumptions about 'the alien' with a new direction that is filled with wonder and rich with empowerment. Of course, we won't do that, at least not initially. The media will rush to the conventional UFO investigators like Stanton Friedman and Leslie Kean, and possibly some officials like John Podesta and even some presently concealed 'insiders.' They will tell a story that, while it isn't untrue, is also not the whole truth. A beginning, certainly, but also exactly the story that is going to leave mankind's intellectual leading edge in a very difficult space, facing the very sort of disempowerment that could fatally blunt our culture's exploratory sharpness.
This must not be and it need not be. This is because there is a larger, more important reality behind the conventional UFO stories. It is about the way we and the visitors are interpenetrated. It is about finding them in us and us in them. It is about discovering, for example, why it is that, during the abduction years, so many of us encountered our dead along with them. And how they communicate. (A thought: We might begin by by forgetting things like instructions and channeled material, unless there comes to be objective proof that any of it is real.)
What communication we have actually received seems to have been more by way of demonstration. For example, in narrative after narrative, the visitors have identified themselves with the owl. And sure enough, if you study the owl, you will find a whole lot that seems to reflect the way the visitors act in our lives. It's not simple, though. Deep, serious study of the species and of the close encounter narratives will reward one with useful insights about how they want us to see them, and, above all, the place they occupy in nature and the cosmos...and the one we occupy.
The truth is that the scientific and intellectual communities stand to gain the most by disclosure, but it is going to be crucial to at once look past the 'alien vs. human' assumptions and the UFO material, and into the real depths that will open within us and before us.
This will by no means disempower us. On the contrary, it will open useful opportunities to advance our sciences and deepen our cultures in ways that are just now coming into focus. We are going to be able to approach basic questions of science and philosophy in entirely new ways. Just knowing that we are in some way involved in this previously hidden inner and outer form of communication tempts us much more toward renaissance than decline.
We must see this for what it has the potential to be: a feast of newness and discovery. But we should not forget the owl, dangerous bird of the night.
Guys, this is not a normal UFO. Its like a drone, but its soul purpose is to create cloud cover for UFOs. I saw 4 such things create 4 cloud tunnels above Rapid City, SD back in 189-1990, then glowing bus size UFOs shot through them. I believe this is a cloud maker drone, either learning or testing its new tech...much like a new printer printing out a test page or two before it starts normal work. The cloud maker itself can only be seen partially with the help of infrared filters, for example I saw one in Taiwan when using an old sony cam with an ir filter on it. I caught it only for 1-2 seconds, but what I saw was a three arm star that turned on its end like a wheel, churning the clouds as it moved through it. I believe that is what made these clouds in Russia...a alien drone whose soul purpose it to create cloud cover for UFO activity. SCW
Russian News States: (Translated) "Unusual" clouds over Vladivostok attracted the attention of users of social networks. The most popular version of the appearance of clouds - UFO (MULTIMEDIA) Photos from the event from other sources. Unusual clouds over Vladivostok. Photo by: Screenshot Instagram user @primdesign Vladivostok, February 19, PrimaMedia. Users of popular social networks Twitter and Instagram got a surprise today, February 19, with the appearance of unusual shaped clouds in the sky over Vladivostok. In the photos, which appeared on the Internet more than a dozen tweets, and videos can be seen depicted quite remarkable "white circles", which immediately began to ascribe extraterrestrial origin, RIA PrimaMedia.
Unusual cloud appeared over Vladivostok at lunchtime and instantly became an eye camera lens and gadgets of many citizens. Some expressed concern, if not a UFO has left its mark. Others argue that these bands could leave the plane.
Unfortunately, the editors failed today to receive comments from meteorologists and physicists to discuss what could cause such an unusual form of clouds. Sure that all the laws of physics could explain it all, for example, thereby "effect of the Prandtl-Gloerta", which is most often remembered today internet users. We are talking about the origin of the clouds after the plane. All the same plane?
The emergence of the cloud due to the effect of the Prandtl-Gloerta depends not only on the speed of the aircraft, but also on the temperature and humidity. In normal or slightly elevated humidity cloud formed only at speeds close to the speed of sound. In extreme humidity effect can be observed at lower (transonic, "transonic") speeds.
New video of a bright unidentified flying object hovering above Antofagasta, a port city in northern Chile. This footage was taken on Tuesday, 24th February 2015.
Stephen Bassett, executive director of Paradigm Research Group and founder of the Extraterrestrial Phenomena Political Action Committee would like to find out.
While he’s pushed for congressional hearings on the topic in the past, Bassett is launching a new effort to overcome the “truth embargo” about the government’s involvement with alien life forms.
“Once this evidence is properly looked at, the way it should be, any reasonable person will come to the same conclusion,” Bassett told Roll Call.
Bassett is flooding approximately 180 members of Congress with meeting requests.
And if Basset gets his way, he doesn’t just want some skimpy meeting done for show.
“The goal is to get one of the committees to commit for comprehensive hearings,” Basset said. “Not three witnesses, come up [to] the Hill for half a day and give ’em a spiel. I’m talking about 25, 30, 35 witnesses, at least, testifying over a week, two weeks if possible. The reason is we’ve got those witnesses and the issue is not an issue that you can dispense with something trivial.”
Two people Bassett should get in his corner: John Podesta, President Barack Obama’s counselor, and former President Bill Clinton.
Considering Podesta’s comments that his “biggest failure” was not securing the disclosure of UFO files, it’s a natural fit.
And as far as Clinton, he did once tell Jimmy Kimmel that maybe the only way to united the world would be with an alien invasion.
So really, a congressional hearing on extraterrestrial life could also double as a world peace hearing.
Here’s our vote for the first witness if that hearing takes place:

The Battle of Los Angeles
The Battle of Los Angeles
The mystery remains of what the U.S. military was shooting at over Los Angeles
You are a soldier of the American Military in the middle of World War 2 stationed on California’s West Coast. It’s been a arduous three months since the surprise attack on Pearl Harbour. Your CO has ordered you to keep an eye out for possible Japanese sneak attacks. Just last night, a submarine was spotted further north, attempting to destroy an oil refinery – a key target in a conflict that had raged for years now. It is now just after 2am. What was that?
That is the question that historians, veterans, investigators and the general public have been pondering for 70 years now. What was that thing? Was there anything really there?
A barrage balloon?
A Top Secret or covert Black Ops development?
The Japanese Air Force?
A blimp?
Or something else completely?
The debate rages on even now. Regardless of what was spotted, the understandable response of a tense and suspicious army was to fire everything it had at the object and blow the thing completely out of the sky. Approximately 15000 shells later, the apparently undamaged object disappears. Six casualties are reported on the ground; confusion surrounds their fate. Popular consensus stated that the shelling was responsible, but cardiac arrests were reported. If the Air raid sirens and the bombardment of AAA guns did anything, it was to wake up the entire city. Witnesses reported everything from single white lights to a giant alien mothership.
Of course this epic encounter was sandwiched roughly half way between the infamous War of the Worlds radio broadcast and the Kenneth Arnold sightings. With everything that was taking place, only one man took the time to record the event photographically. This picture, shown in this article, has become one of the most enduring and iconic of all UFO photographs on record. While it has been retouched and restored, a routine practice for most photography of the era, the LA Times has categorically denied any and all accusations that it has somehow doctored or enhanced the photograph. The image does support the notion that something was hovering or moving at the time. A recent curiosity came to light when UFO researcher Ben Hanson (of Fact or Faked) researched the encounter; the negative stored within the LA Times archive was discovered to be a copy and not an original.
The Press and Media had a field day during and shortly after the sighting. CBS reported on the incident as if it were broadcast live but was, in fact, recorded several hours after the last of the shelling had stopped. Press conferences were arranged and held as promptly as could be realistically expected. Some of these insisted on explanations such as false alarms, practice drills and a combination of mass hysteria and vivid imaginations. The official verdict was that the entire episode was caused by a lack of proper knowledge of the primitive radar technology, heightened tensions of the War and what may or may not have happened and general confusion. Surely someone must have realised this at some point during the two or three barrage.
Reports of wreckage being found and shipped off somewhere were denied. It is possible that some of the shelling had somehow been mistaken for debris from whatever was thought to be gliding over the skies that night. It was also thought that the shells themselves were taken to be enemy aircraft and fired upon as well. It cannot be refuted that the War itself was a contributing factor to whatever was going on at the time. Five years before or after might have made a difference. When the conclusion of hostilities arrived, the Japanese military insisted that none of their aircraft or forces were involved in whatever was seen during that particular night-time.
Every side in this fascinating tale has denied any culpability of responsibility, which is likely to mean that The Battle of Los Angeles is a mystery not likely to be solved to any great satisfaction.

Thomas Reed UFO Alien Case Appeared Before The U.N. ( Photographic Evidence)
Thomas Reed UFO Alien Case Appeared Before The U.N. ( Photographic Evidence)
Apparently the United Nations thought this case with Thomas Reed was important enough to appear before a Parapsychology meeting before the United Nations. Contained within this interview is photographic evidence of the fact that this case was indeed discussed before many delegates of the United Nations of their Parapsychology unit. Many other faces were there from the UFO community as well. Below is the photographic evidence of the Reed Family and their lawyers being involved in the case that was discussed at the United Nations. Lawyer Robert Bletchman who represents the case is shown mentioned in the evidence heavily. As well as the stunning revelation that the U.N. actually discussed UFOs, Aliens, and the Paranormal.
For more on the Reed Family Case
Two decades of collected evidence solidify the Reed family Multi-Generational abduction case. The findings have been said to be overwhelming, and one of the strongest cases ever professionally investigated. Thomas and Matthew Reed are the two sons of a prominent Connecticut Mayor and attorney who ran the democratic ticked support by Senator Christopher Dodd. This family of professionals have reported they involvement to local authorities, Mufon and aerospace groups since the mid 1980’s.
The individual cases have been investigated by several groups and over a span over 20 years. There file classified as a CE-4/ 3-star file: Close Encounter of the 4th kind to include physical evidence. Their family’s involvement in the late 1960’s that had seemingly been behind them, surfaced once again while the two boys were successful professionals raising their young Children. In the Brownsburg IN abduction of April 2009, investigators Identified strong radioactive material and radioactive Hot Spots. The radiation on the Reeds SUV had been detected with a Geiger counter. Forceful Magnetic fields were also present on the vehicle and strong enough to spin a compass in circles form two and a half feet away. The testing equipment and readings have been recorded on camera and are logged in the Mufon CMS. The only common factors are that the family shares the RH Negative blood group and has lived relatively close to nuclear power plants.
Their investigations would also uncover, trace evidence, witnesses, damaged digital instrument gages, and physical makings on Matthew & Thomas Reed. The April 2009 craft was spotted on radar and observed by local residents. The professional groups involved in the validation of this case include. police officers, The Star Team, a Roan County C.C. Detective, MUFON, Doctors, and Attorney Robert Bletchman, who discussed the case along with others at the United Nations Symposium on Extraterrestrial Intelligence and Human Future which occurred on October 2, 1992, just ten days before NASA was to begin its SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) program.
Thomas’s son participated and undergone psychoanalysis after their school found him to test in the superior range. Test results reflected 127% rank, / 96% throughout the US. Doctor Michael Buckner a respected Ph.D. then evaluated his son and verified the child did present remote viewing abilities. The document and medical record was dated Sept 2010. The heightened abilities have also been supported and witnessed by TN Mufon assistant state director and Officer Steve White a Roan County Sheriff. Members of the Reed family have taken and passed a Polygraph test. Several of the drawings sketched in the 1960’s and 70’s from Thomas Reed are displayed in the Roswell UFO museum. The Reeds have also appeared on The Church Of Mabus Radio Show. Once Tom appeared with Travis Walton of the Fire in the Sky legacy.
The Reeds are a well-respected family of Attorneys, Physicians and Business owners, with October 6th a local designated holiday recognizing their family’s contributions to the City of Bridgeport. Thomas started his career as a fashion photographer, before accepting positions in upper management for several future 500 companies. Thomas is also the founder of Miami Models, with clients such as Polo Black Label, Tommy Hilfiger, Nike, Ralph Lauren, Parisian, Vogue Bambini, and Saks Fifth Avenue.
The Georgia family was driving along Furys Ferry Road in the Augusta-Martinez area when they first saw the hovering triangle. Pictured: Furys Ferry Road in Martinez. (Credit: Google)
A Georgia family at Augusta encountered a hovering triangle-shaped UFO along Furys Ferry Road and drove under the object for a better look, according to testimony in Case 63503 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The husband, wife and son were driving along Furys Ferry Road when they first saw the hovering object about 7:30 p.m. on February 21, 2015.
“Wife thought it was new cell tower or something, but the lights were white and very bright,” the reporting witness stated.
The family drove toward the object.
“Drove underneath and to one side and saw it was a triangle with bright lights at each corner and a small red light in center.”
As the family drove under the object, it tilted slightly. Pictured: Old Furys Ferry Road in Martinez. (Credit: Google)
The object moved as they drove by.
“As we drove past, it tilted slightly and began moving.”
The family then drove past the object, but decided to turn around and go back for another look.
“I drove down one-quarter mile and spun around. By the time we got back it had moved off very rapidly and it appeared in the distance. Thought I saw a blinking/pulsing blue light on the side facing us as it flew off. No sound.”
The object eventually moved away making no sound. Pictured: Old Furys Ferry Road in Martinez. (Credit: Google)
Augusta is a consolidated city-county in Georgia, population 197,872.
Georgia is currently a UFO Alert Level 5 – with 1.01 sightings per million population based on MUFON January 2015 statistics. Georgia received a total of 10 UFO reports in January.
The UFO Alert Rating System is based on five levels – 1 through 5 – where states with 4.01 or higher reports per million residents are rated an Alert 1; 3.01 – 4.0 reports are an Alert 2; 2.51 – 3.0 are an Alert 3; 2.01 – 2.5 are an Alert 4; and those states with 2.0 or lower are rated an Alert 5.
Please remember that most UFO sighting can be explained as something natural or man-made. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.
This weekend I was notified that a recent UFO sighting, involving a dramatic crash into Lake Winnipeg in Canada has now gotten the attention of amateur UFO researchers and those who wish to debunk the crash as some sort of experiment gone wrong.
The UFO report was first filed on Facebook by a man named Brent Mancheese, who snapped a few photos in the area of the crash and posted them on his news feed.
Lake Winnipeg prior to crash
Immediately his Facebook page had been taken down. The UFO crash, which garnered attention for the dramatic nature of the military UFO cover-up involved, occurred near Jackhead, Manitoba. With this event standing as one of the most dramatic UFO incidents of the past several months

Another dramatic UFO encounter happened in Peru during a television interview.
A television production crew in Lima, Peru, videotaped a purple-colored disc-shaped UFO hovering in the distant sky near a construction site. So far, there’s no official explanation for the object.
According to Peru This Week, the TV show “Alto al Crimen” was shooting an episode in the upscale Miraflores district of Lima on February 10. The show’s host, Lima Congressman Renzo Reggiardo, halted an interview to allow his camera operator to focus on the strange-looking purple object in the sky.

The object was a classic disc shaped object that was just hovering over a construction site giving off a strange purple and blue color.

Meanwhile the Canadian UFO crash kept gaining ground as residents in the area of Jackhead told that there was a shelter in place in effect and that all cell phone and computer communications would be halted until the craft was safely pulled out of the ice and the danger was clear.
Literally, the Canadian military had blocked communications about the incident, which brings up a lot of questions that I am sure the military does not want to answer.
UFOs of course are a hard sell in a world where skepticism has taken hold all because of internet opportunists that love a good UFO story that they can hoax or use to fool the public.
It seems there was indeed something in the ice of military interest on Feb. 18. Pictures of military vehicles near Jackhead were popping up all over the internet, generating from twitter accounts in Winnipeg.
People described the vehicle as looking like a stepped up pyramid about 200 yards long and triangular shaped. One resident commented that whatever the craft was, it was huge and had a long set of lights and literally broke in two. Pieces of it were seen heading straight up and then dropping suddenly into the lake causing a huge wave that pushed the ice up into huge piles.
CBC news was alerted to all of the talk of UFOs and decided to investigate. What they reported was that it was not a UFO at all, according to Lt.-Col. Paul Davies, commanding officer 38 Territorial Battalion Group. He claimed that the battalion is involved with an Arctic Response Company Group training exercise on Lake Winnipeg called Arctic Bison 2015
Members of the Arctic Response Company Group drive across frozen Lake Winnipeg during Exercise Arctic Bison 2015.
About 150 military personnel are taking part in Exercise Arctic Bison 2015, which includes the 38 Canadian Brigade Group, the 2nd Battalion of the Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry, the 4th Canadian Ranger Patrol Group, and 440 Squadron of the Royal Canadian Air Force.
Davies said soldiers are training to deal with a plane crash and provide ground search and rescue support in the Arctic.
The bright light that people saw, he explained, came from an airplane that takes off very quickly and then crashes.
Residents were not aware of this exercise and during the UFO incident a very harsh cold front has blown through making it dangerous to be outside. It is also peculiar that a shelter in place command has been issue for the area. Nobody is allowed to leave or enter the reservation at this time and that the military has been going door to door talking with residents. They are telling the residents that they are conducting emergency training exercises.
If it routine training why all of the drama, why is there a shelter in place command being issued by the military and with the extreme cold front in Manitoba over the last two days why would these so called exercises continue in extremely dangerous conditions. In a deadly freeze, it is dangerous to spend time outdoors for any period.
The military has moved in all their equipment effectively blocking any view of what may have crashed into the water or what they are doing there.
We contacted Peter Davenport from the National UFO Reporting Center. He tells us that he had contacted Dr. Chris Ruthowski from the Canadian UFO report in Manitoba and the strike team from MUFON and they claim there is nothing to the story.
What we lack are credible witnesses in this story. The few that have talked are now being told not to. The evidence was not first presented to a credible news agency. Even if a UFO crashed in the waters of Jackhead, there would be a hardly anyone that could accurately get near it. All we have are a few curious pictures and some commentary that something evidently crashed there.
Again it is a matter of who do you trust, the military’s explanation or what people saw?
The UFO community is frequently inundated with promises of easy answers. Insiders emerge with convenient explanations about what is being seen, and with the latest Blue Book revelations there is more caution now about what is reported and what is left to be ignored.
It is always interesting to see what UFO stories eventually become easily explained away by the military and which ones aren’t explained and how long it will take for the story to get lost somewhere in the memory hole.
Many people in the field of research sincerely wants to believe that UFOs piloted by aliens is a common thing, but the truth is there are many theories that presume that perhaps the alien UFOs are rare and that what we are experiencing is the result of alien probes or unmanned or Artificial intelligence now pilots these aircraft.
In October of 2012, more than 100 UFOs were seen along the India-China border, and the sightings had officials puzzled. The Times of India reported that “yellowish spheres appeared to have lifted off from the horizon on the Chinese side and slowly traversed the sky for three to five hours before disappearing.”
The Times of India added that the UFO sightings stumped numerous Indian military groups, including their air force, NTRO technical intelligence agency and the Indo-Tibetan Border Police. The Los Angeles Times reported that intelligence had ruled out the simple answer of the UFOs being Chinese drones or low-orbit satellites. Even though officials tried to calm the population with possible down to earth explanations the people were not convinced that the objects were from earth or even friendly.
In fact a photographer who had witnessed this phenomenon began shooting pictures. What he witnessed was something that even baffled him. What he saw were orbs and spheres but what he also witnessed was what appeared to be machines with what appeared to be mechanical arms picking up spoil samples.
It was suggested that this was an extraterrestrial probe looking for earth soil. The theory lasted a long time and got the attention and the imagination of the people in China and India. In 2014, however, the media suggested that the UFOs in question were Chinese balloons gathering information and positions of troops along Chinese border. China is on altogether different level as compared to Indians in terms of technological advancement in military operations. The highly advanced robots that were used at the border have not been explained satisfactorily.
It is stating the obvious to say that everybody who does UFO research has at one time or another wished for the one great event — the ultimate smoking gun — that would decisively reveal the truth. Unfortunately, there is no shortcut. UFO research is just plain hard work.
In Ufology, a close encounter or CE is an event in which a person witnesses an unidentified flying object. This terminology and the system of classification behind it was started by astronomer and UFO researcher J. Allen Hynek, and was first suggested in his 1972 book The UFO Experience: A Scientific Inquiry. He introduced the first three kinds of encounters; more sub-types of close encounters were later added by others, but these additional categories are not universally accepted by UFO researchers.
Most are familiar with the term “Close Encounters of the Third Kind” because of the Steven Spielberg film which introduced the pop culture to UFO encounters. As UFO encounters have became more sophisticated there have been more terminologies associated with such encounters. These numeric terminologies were added after Hynek’s scientific studies.
CE-4: A UFO event in which a human is abducted by a UFO or its occupants. This type was not included in Hynek’s original close encounters scale
Hynek’s erstwhile associate Jacques Vallee argued in the Journal of Scientific Exploration that a CE4 should be described as “cases when witnesses experienced a transformation of their sense of reality,” so as to also include non-abduction cases where absurd, hallucinatory or dreamlike events are associated with UFO encounters.
CE-5: A UFO event that involves direct communication between aliens and humans. This type of close encounter was named by Steven M. Greer’s CSETI group. Those of this type are described as bilateral contact experiences through conscious, voluntary and proactive human-initiated cooperative communication with extraterrestrial intelligence.
CE-6: Death of a human or animal associated with a UFO sighting. Close Encounters of the Seventh Kind –The creation of a human/alien hybrid, either by sexual reproduction or by artificial scientific methods.
There are also military terms for UFOs. There are “Bogeys,” “Santa Claus,” and, if they crash, they are known as “Fallen Angels.” The term also refers to a military craft that has crashed with a pilot inside.
The investigation of UFO sightings involves many hours spent interviewing witnesses, surveying sighting locations, collecting photos and evidence, digging through archives, and even going to the site itself to investigate.
I would say for the sake of argument that since the temperatures at Jackhead and Lake Winnipeg are so frigid and dangerous, all reports from outside sources should be considered spurious. The only people that know what has happened to them are the residents of the area and of course the military knows as well.
The sad thing is we often find out about sightings long after they happen — when the trail has become stone cold. Other times the trail of evidence leads to a dead end: Witnesses don’t agree, somebody lies, evidence is lost or compromised, or an event turns out to be a hoax. Yet still we persevere. Eventually we see the fuzzy beginnings of a picture of the UFO phenomenon – but still we find no smoking gun. There are no easy answers.
Mars foto's van NASA afkomstig van de Aarde ? ( Video)
Mars foto's van NASA afkomstig van de Aarde ? ( Video)
Velen hebben zich verbaasd over dat de Rovers van NASA zoveel bijzondere voorwerpen hebben gefotografeerd aan het oppervlak van Mars.
En hoewel ze hun uiterste best hebben gedaan om zoveel mogelijk weg te poetsen, zijn er toch nog heel wat mooie plaatjes door de mazen van het net geglipt.
Zo is er bijvoorbeeld gisteren op één van de NASA foto’s iets ontdekt wat niet anders omschreven kan worden dan als een boek.
Vraag is natuurlijk hoe er in 's hemelsnaam een boek op Mars terechtkomt en vooral, hoe kan het dat het in zo’n goede staat is?
Iemand die daar een antwoord op heeft is de Engelse onderzoeker Richard D. Hall. Hij heeft een theorie die onder andere het volgende stelt:
De reden dat al dit soort voorwerpen worden gevonden op het oppervlak van Mars door al die verschillende NASA Rovers is omdat die karretjes helemaal niet op Mars rondrijden en nooit de aarde hebben verlaten.
Met andere woorden, de beelden die wij zien, zijn foto’s van een gebied ergens op aarde en dan is het ook logisch dat je daarop af en toe voorwerpen aantreft die door mensen zijn gemaakt, zoals het boek hierboven.
Nu is het één ding om dat zomaar te stellen, maar Richard D. Hall heeft dit samen met andere onderzoekers wel degelijk onderbouwd.
Hall vraagt dan ook mensen om hem niet zomaar bij voorbaat te veroordelen, maar eerst het door hem gepresenteerde bewijs tot zich te nemen alvorens een oordeel te vellen.
In de twee video’s hieronder wordt door Richard Hall, samen met andere onderzoekers, dieper ingegaan op hun stelling en het bewijs daarvoor.
Voor diegenen die geen tijd hebben om de video’s te zien, is hier de complete onderbouwing van de stelling van Richard D Hall te downloaden.
De hoofdstelling is dat wat NASA het publiek voorhoudt één grote hoax is en bedoeld als afleiding van de werkelijke ruimteprojecten waar men (de Amerikaanse luchtmacht en de NSA) zich mee bezighoudt.
Al jarenlang is er sprake van een fenomeen dat onderdeel vormt van de vele aardveranderingen: sinkholes of zinkgaten.
Vroeger iets wat heel sporadisch voor kwam, tegenwoordig in toenemende mate en er vallen ook steeds meer doden bij.
Een groot zinkgat bijvoorbeeld dat op 3 februari opeens ontstond in een veld in Noord Korea en dat aan elf mensen het leven heeft gekost.
Het ongeluk gebeurde in een veld in het noorden van het land dichtbij de grens met China.
Nu is het in de praktijk niet zo gemakkelijk om nieuws te krijgen uit dit land, maar volgens bronnen waren vrouwen een akker aan het ploegen toen de grond onder hen opeens wegviel. De elf doden zijn dan ook allemaal vrouwen en daarnaast schijnen er nog eens 30 gewonden te zijn gevallen.
Je hoeft echter niet ergens op het platteland te zijn om slachtoffer te kunnen worden van een sinkhole. Als je met de bus gaat in het Zuid Koreaanse Seoel dan ben je in net zoveel gevaar.
Een man en een vrouw stappen uit de bus op de stoep en het volgende ogenblik zijn ze verdwenen. Opgeslokt door een gat in de grond.
Wanneer je de volgende video ziet dan geeft dat toch wel een beangstigend gevoel:
Gelukkig voor dit stel is het voor hen goed afgelopen en werden ze naar verluidt door omstanders uit het gat gehaald. Ze hadden niet meer dan wat lichte verwondingen.
Het bovenstaande is vooral beangstigend omdat je geen enkele waarschuwing krijgt. Het ene moment loop je op straat en het volgende ben je letterlijk opgeslokt door een gat.
Die waarschuwing kregen inwoners van het Italiaanse Napels wel toen ze afgelopen zondag wakker werden en een enorm zinkgat in hun straat ontdekten.
Het gevolg was dat er in allerijl 380 gezinnen geëvacueerd moesten te worden. Hier zijn gelukkig geen doden of gewonden gevallen, maar volgens een vrouwelijke getuige is er wel een auto verdwenen in het enorme gat.
Voorlopig is de boel afgesloten en hebben de mensen geen flauw idee wanneer ze weer naar hun huizen terug kunnen keren.
Iedere keer weer wordt er door overheden en instanties wel een "logische" verklaring bedacht waarom dit soort sinkholes ontstaan.
Feit is dat ze zo langzamerhand epidemische vormen aannemen en dat ze steeds gevaarlijker beginnen te worden. Toegeven dat dit soort heftige aardveranderingen het gevolg is van de nadering van de planeet Nibiru, is iets dat natuurlijk nooit zal gebeuren.
For a UFO hunter like you, do you care to share how you do capturing? Do you have a hidden technique how to easily capture a UFO once it is around your area? Perhaps, you have a different technique from others, isn’t it? UFO hunters have various ways to capture their most awaited hunting with UFOs. Originally, there is nothing wrong which such waiting. There is nothing wrong if you get used to a long waiting prior to capturing UFOs.
But for once in your hunting experience, have you not thought of possibly changing your hunting technique in order to stop waiting and just be amazed how you can easily hunt and take enormous shots of UFOs for a certain period of time? If you are open to possibilities and you have thought about this, lucky you for there is now a latest tool that will ultimately teach you the WHAT, HOW and WHEN you can hunt UFOs.
Do you want to know what this tool is? To excite you no more, this guide is a book titled “How to Capture UFO.” By far, this book is the most recommended by UFO hunters who been have greatly benefited by the book. From the previous waiting in vain for a UFO to pass their telescope, this book covers everything hunters need to know in order to easily and immediately capture UFOs. Here are some of main subjects this book covers:
The Right Equipment. These are everything you need in order to get professional audio, photos and videos of UFO.
How to Research. Prior to hunting for UFOs, you need to have complete basic preparation about it.
Getting Good Results. You need to get tangible proofs in order to make people believe your experience. Once your pictures are unprofessional and grainy, no one will believe your UFO captures.
UFOs or unidentified flying objects have always been present throughout history. One major example for this presenting is the Halley’s Comet. This comet was initially documented by the Chinese astronomers in 240 B.C. It terrified people for a lot of cases.
Oftentimes, UFOs were related with religious insinuations. People sight them off like angels or other celestial beings. Even the UFO hunters today have compared the religious symbols and icons displayed in old paintings in accordance to UFO sighting.
It is crystal clear that UFOs are not a natural security issue but a scientific one. Issues about these flying saucers have long been around. Studies are continuous and never ending. UFO hunting is no like walking in the park. It is more than just putting your boots on and snapping photos of UFO. It is quite a complicated task in which you must be prepared in order to get and deliver a story that people will believe in. Your story will only be accepted by people see clear evidences about for story.

eaction of FB-friend from Canada - Canada UFO Crash 2015...
reaction of a FB-friend of Canada
New message of Ch. L. from Canada
thanks Peter, I had a quick glance at your blog...just so you know it really was a military exercise in Manitoba, where I was born and raised. THe picture showing the pyramide type object is just a pile of snow and ice, as they were clearing a path for a landing strip..common sense, why would a UFO look like and have some consistency, color of the snow..it's not a coverup..Thirdphaseofmoon really did a false and bad reporting on it..interviewing someone that wasnt even there, so it didn't help as well as many other non credible sights taking advantage of the hoax...I would reconsider what you mentioned in your blog...Chris Rutkowski is from Winnipeg and he's unbiased and researcher, he investigated it and it was really just an exercise..I have other colleagues and friends from the area, nothing of what they are stating about what happened ever occurred...just thought you should know...thanks
Canada UFO Crash 2015...
Last Wednesday February 18, 2015 in lake Winnipeg, near Jackhead Canada, there was an alleged UFO crash. There were several eyewitnesses that saw a pyramidal or disk shaped object crash in the frozen lake. Military arrive at the zone and told the witnesses that it was an airplane crash during a military training exercise and that they were not allowed to have or take any pictures of the craft in the lake.
That night facebook and twitter was filled with eyewitnesses stories and photos of what they saw and what the military people told them. The rumor was stronger when photos of the Canadian Forces vehicles in the area, allegedly to contain the UFO crash site made an appearance.
Lt.-Col. Paul Davies, commanding officer 38 territorial battalion group, involved in an Artic Response Company Group training exercise on the lake Winnipeg told CBC news that there was no UFO at all, it was all an exercise. "There'sno aliens, just my friends in the air force who are out helping un on the exercise".
Davies said soldiers were training to deal with a plane crash and provide ground search and rescue support in the Artic. If it was all an exercise why all the secrecy and why all the witnesses were detained and no pictures must been taken, that sounds more like a cover up, than an exercise.
Allegedly the object was being pulled by snow mobiles from the crash site on the lake. The Crash was in a Indian reservation and nobody was allowed to leave or enter the reservation, soldiers were going door to door talking to residents and telling them that all was a military exercise.
After military arrived to the zone they moved all their equipment blocking any view of what mayor have crashed and what they where doing with it.
If all of this was a hoax, a military exercise of in fact a UFO crash we are not sure at the moment. As always history is repeating itself and military are covering everything up with "exercise" stories to maintain people calm and with the curiosity on low levels. If you think about it its all really weird to be just a military routine stuff. But if all was an exercise crash why the huge mobilization of soldiers and tons of equipment blocking the view of the site?
Also why the eyewitnesses weren't allowed to have any pictures and allegedly they were detained? Why does anyone wasn't able to enter or exit the reserve and soldiers were losing time going door by door telling the same story to every resident of the reserve? It's like too much trouble and work just for an exercise that is something so common in the military.
We have to be really open minded and question everything, because all things have at least two sides of the story. The one you choose to believe it's your decision...

500 Year Old Map Was Discovered That Shatters The “Official” History Of The Planet
500 Year Old Map Was Discovered That Shatters The “Official” History Of The Planet
Human history is quite an enigma. We know so little, and much of what we think we know seems to be highly questionable in the wake of new evidence, as well as pre-existing information that challenges our current understanding of the world.
Our world is no stranger to unexplained mystery, and there are numerous examples of verified phenomenon, ancient monuments, books, teachings, understandings and more that lack any explanation and counter what we’ve already been taught. We are like a race with amnesia, able to put together small bits and pieces of our history yet unable to provide any sort of verified explanation. There are still many missing pieces to the puzzle.
One great example is the Piri Reis map, a genuine document that was re-made (copied from older documents) at Constantinople in AD 1513, and discovered in 1929. It focuses on the western coast of Africa, the eastern coast of South America, and the northern coast of Antarctica. It was drawn by the military intelligence of Admiral Piri Reis of the Ottoman era. He is a well-known historical figure whose identity is well established. The Admiral made a copy of it, and the original was drawn based on documents that date back to at least the fourth century BC, and on information obtained by multiple explorers.
Why The Map Is So Compelling
Right off the bat, one of the most compelling facts about the map is that it includes a continent that our history books tell us was not discovered until 1818.
Secondly, the map depicts what is known as “Queen Maud Land,” a 2.7 million-square-kilometer (1 million sq mi) region of Antarctica as it looked millions of years ago. This region and other regions shown on the map are thought to have been covered completely in ice, but the map tells a different story. It shows this area as ice free, which suggests that these areas passed through a long ice-free period which might not have come to an end until approximately six thousand years ago, which again, totally goes against what is taught and currently believed. Today, geological evidence has confirmed that this area could not have been ice-free until about 4000 BC.
Official science has been saying all along that the ice-cap which covers the Antarctic is millions of years old. The Piri Reis map shows that the northern part of that continent has been mapped before the ice did cover it. This means that it was mapped a million years ago, but that’s impossible, since mankind did not exist at that time. Quite the conundrum isn’t it?
Professor Charles Hapgood, who was a university history professor, wrote to the United States Air Force Reconnaissance Technical Squadron (SAC) and they also confirmed that“this indicates the coastline had been mapped before it was covered by the ice-cap.” (1) They also went on to state that “we have no idea how the data on this map can be reconciled with the supposed state of geographical knowledge in 1513.” (1) (The reply was from Harold Z. Ohlmeyer, a Lt Colonel, USAF)
Here’s what Professor Charles Hapgood had to say about it:
“It appears that accurate information has been passed down from people to people. It appears that the charts must have originated with a people unknown and they were passed on, perhaps by the Minoans and the Phoenicians, who were, for a thousand years and more, the greatest sailors of the ancient world. We have evidence that they were collected and studied in the great library of Alexandria (Egypt) and that compilations of them were made by the geographers that worked there.” (1)
Furthermore, the map is very detailed and includes mountain ranges in the Antarctic. which were not even discovered until 1952.
“His idea is original, of great simplicity, and – if it continues to prove itself – of great importance to everything that is related to the history of the Earth’s surface.” – Einstein on Hapgood’s interpretations of the map (1)(2) (From a forward Einstein wrote for Hapgood in one of his books)
Hapgood and mathematician Richard W. Strachan have also provided more mind-boggling information. For example, a comparison with modern day photographs that are taken from satellite images shows remarkable similarities; the originals of Piri Reis’ maps might well have been aerial photographs taken from a very high height. (2) I’ll let you think about that for a second. How is that possible for a map that was made millions of years ago?
“A spaceship hovers high above Cairo and points its camera straight downward. When the film is developed, the following picture would emerge: everything that is in a radius of about 5,000 miles of Cairo is reproduced correctly, because it lies directly below the lens. But the countries and continents become increasingly distorted the farther we move our eyes from the center of the picture. Why is this? Owing to the spherical shape of the earth, the continents away from the center “sink downward.” South America, for example, appears strangely distorted length-ways, exactly as it does on the Piri Reis maps! And exactly as it does on the photographs taken from the American lunar probes.” – (Erich Von Daniken 92)
Changing Our View of The Past
The fact that this ancient map could have been made with some sort of arial technology is quite a thought, isn’t it? Even if this isn’t an option, who had the technology to undertake such an accurate geographical survey in Antarctica a couple million years ago? How would they have known to detail the map as if it were taken from above, with knowledge about the earth’s shape?
It remains a mystery how the Sumerians, Mayans, and others were aware of bodies in space that are impossible to detect without modern technology, and were able to make calculations based on that awareness. This map is another example of just such a mystery, and suggests that the existence of some sort of ancient advanced civilization, with all the tools (or possibly more) of modern day civilization, is indeed plausible.
For more detailed information regarding this truly fascinating map, I suggest you check out source # 1 for starters.
I’d also like to mention that this map is part of a very large body of evidence suggesting that extremely intelligent, very advanced ancient civilizations once roamed the Earth.

After Thousands of Years, Earth's Frozen Life Forms Are WAKING UP
After Thousands of Years, Earth's Frozen Life Forms Are WAKING UP
February 24, 2015- What's happening in Siberia's thawing permafrost and Greenland's melting glaciers sounds borderline supernatural. A ncient viruses, bacteria, plants, and even animals have been cryogenically frozen there for millennia—and now, they are waking up.
Cryofreezing is best known for its appearances in science fiction, but self-styled "resurrection ecologists" are now showing the world just how real it is.
In 2012, scientists germinated flowers from a handful of 32,000 year old seeds excavated from the Siberian tundra. Last year, researchers hatched 700-year old eggs from the bottom of a Minnesota lake, while another team resuscitated an Antarctic moss that had been frozen since the time of King Arthur. Bacteria, however, are the uncontested masters of cryogenics—one bug, at least, was alive and kicking after 8 million years of suspended animation.
Fear not—while awakening a million-year old plague sounds like a great scifi plot, most of these critters are totally harmless. But they're fascinating for another reason: They're a window into Earth's past; one that may offer clues to how species will cope with change in the future. Here's what the emerging field of resurrection ecology—which is as badass as it sounds—may allow scientists to do.
Evolutionary biologists are accustomed to thinking about deep time —events that occurred millions, even billions of years in Earth's past. Using fossils, rocks and chemical signatures, scientists have built beautifully detailed theories about what our ancient world looked like. Still, if there's one thing any dino researcher would kill for, it'd be the chance to see one of her long-lost subjects in the flesh.
For the first time now, biologists can do just that—study live organisms that hail from a different era. Sure, bacteria and mosses are a far cry from a T-rex, but being able to poke and prod any creature that crawled about a million years ago is still astounding. As scientists described in the 2013 resurrection ecology manifesto, cryogenically frozen specimens are like an "evolutionary time machine." They offer researchers a new way to study the past, but also, the chance to observe evolution in real time.
What would it mean to see evolution in action? Going back to dinosaurs for a moment, imagine you're a paleontologist studying the evolution of feathers. It'd sure be nice if you could clone some dinos, rear them in your Jurassic Park-sized lab, expose them to a range of different environmental conditions—evolutionary biologists call these "selective pressures"—and re-create the "scenario" that caused plumage to evolve. Clearly, this particular experiment is preposterous and will never happen.
But with microbes, which multiply in minutes and pack by the billions into a petri dish, researchers can now do something similar.

Drones Spotted Flying Over France Sparks Terror Alert
Drones Spotted Flying Over France Sparks Terror Alert
Drones flying over France prompted a new terror alert for the nation. At least five drones were spotted flying over French landmarks, including the U.S. Embassy. New terror alert for France after ‘at least’ five drones are spotted flying above Paris landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower and including the U.S. Embassy.
The drones were noticed fairly quickly when flying over top tourists spots in France. The unmanned aircraft were spotted in “at least” five different locations in the capital between midnight and 6 a.m. French security agents were not able to catch the drone operators.
Civilian drones are not permitted in France due to a stated security risk involving such unmanned aircraft. It is reportedly believed by many security experts that drones are used by terrorists to garner access to targets prior to an attack. Civilian drones are not permitted near French nuclear facilities due to a no-fly zone which encompasses a 1.6-mile radius around such facilities.
The five drones were reportedly spotted in the Invalides military museum where Napoleon Bonaparte is buried and the Place de la Concorde in the French capital. Drones are often appointed with video recording equipment which could be used by terrorists for surveillance.
“It could be a coordinated action but we don’t know for now,” an unidentified French security source stated, according to a report in the Daily Mail. Drones have also reportedly been spotted flying around military facilities, the presidential palace, and nuclear plants in recent months.
The five drones spotted flying around France happened as terrorist attack threats have reportedly been issued by terror groups. The drones could be seen flying around the city throughout the night but no one could identify the operators, according to local police. A special police aviation team attempted to determine who was behind the drone flights.
Although there have been other “mysterious” drone flights around Paris, the most recent sighting is reportedly the first time so many drones have been seen flying around potentially vulnerable French targets. The U.S. Embassy in France has also reportedly been threatened with terror attacks in the past from Al Qaeda and similar groups. The five drones flying around France did not pose a threat if the devices had been intentionally been crashed into buildings, according to French police.
What do you think about the drones flying around France? A prank of recon on soft targets by potential terrorists?

Two Texas witnesses northbound along I-35 between Austin and Dallas reported watching “two bright, shiny cylinder or cigar-shaped objects with rounded noses and tails” cross the highway ahead of them at approximately 1,000 feet, according to testimony in Case 63509 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The reporting witness, with his wife in the front passenger seat, was driving between 75 and 80 mph in perfect, blue sky weather in 54 degrees, with 30 to 40 vehicles immediately ahead of them in traffic, at 9:45 a.m. on February 19, 2015.
The couple was north of Georgetown, TX, and had just passed Exit 268.
“The two objects crossed the highway in front of us at an elevation of approximately 1,000 feet,” the witness stated. “They were perfectly in-line with one another—approximately 3,000 feet apart. It’s like they were flying on a stretched out wire—perfectly in-line with one another.”
The witness were northbound along I-35 near Walburg, TX, when the two cylinder-shaped UFOs were seen crossing over the highway. (Credit: Google)
The witness described the objects.
“They were identical in size, shape, and color. The shape and color of these two objects was contrasted against the blue sky. They were shiny—a bright white. There were no discernible wings, tails, landing gear, propellers, jet engines, windows, or lights. They were two cylindrical or cigar-shaped objects with rounded nose and tails.”
The witness described their movements.
“I believe the objects were two-to-three-miles ahead of us when I first saw them. They crossed just above the tree line traveling from west to east. They were in my field of view for five seconds and traveling at a high rate of speed.”
The witnesses’ wife was able to view the objects for a longer period of time.
“I pointed and asked my wife to look out her passenger window to see if she could see what I was watching. She watched the two objects for another 20 seconds until the topography to the east blocked her view. She said the objects did not alter their course, configuration, elevation, or speed—remaining quickly traveling to the east at a high rate of speed until they were no longer visible from her vantage point.”
The nearest town to this sighting report is Walburg, TX, an unincorporated area located at the crossroads of Farm to Market Road 972 (FM 972) and Farm to Market Road 1105 (FM 1105) in Williamson County.
The witness said there was no discernible wings, tails, landing gear, propellers, jet engines, windows, or lights on the objects. Pictured: I-35 near Walburg, TX. (Credit: Google)
Texas is currently a UFO Alert Level 5 – with 1.00 sightings per million population based on MUFON January 2015 statistics. Texas received a total of 26 UFO reports in January.
The UFO Alert Rating System is based on five levels – 1 through 5 – where states with 4.01 or higher reports per million residents are rated an Alert 1; 3.01 – 4.0 reports are an Alert 2; 2.51 – 3.0 are an Alert 3; 2.01 – 2.5 are an Alert 4; and those states with 2.0 or lower are rated an Alert 5.
Please remember that most UFO sighting can be explained as something natural or man-made. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.
Filmed miles from NASA / Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas; Houston Skywatch captures a chemtrail plane that appears as a circular “orb” like shape. We have no explanation for why, among dozens and dozens of filmed planes to date, that this one appears as a bright white circular object. It could be some sort of drone or other advanced technology we as the public are simply unaware of. It is unusual to note that it seems to sputter and turn off and on while typical chemtrails leave either persistent or non-persistent trails. These types of ‘sputtering’ planes are a rare sight but prove that they are simply not contrails. Here it is – we start off with recently filmed time lapse photography (02/22/15,) move into the actual orb footage, and then show other “standard” chemplanes for comparison all in full high def. 1080p. It’s episode #00012 of Houston Skywatch.
Take care and God Bless. Please subscribe, share, comment, and like if you want to see more content. This is episode #00012 in a new series of footage which we are capturing on a daily basis when the weather allows. We have recently purchased new filming equipment and so it is only a matter of time before more and better footage emerges. The Spring Eqiunox will be a highlight for sure.
Four new mysterious giant craters have appeared in the Siberian permafrost in northern Russia, sparking fears that global warming may be causing gas to erupt from underground.
Scientists spotted the new holes, along with dozens of other smaller ones, in the same area as three other enormous craters that were spotted on the Yamal Peninsula last year.
The craters are thought to be caused by eruptions of methane gas from the permafrost as rising rising temperatures causes the frozen soil to melt.

Unexplained: The first of the new craters discovered, named B1 (pictured above), shows signs of an huge eruption of gas
It has sparked fears that the craters could become more common as climate change continues to warm and led to warnings that the area is facing a looming natural disaster.
One of new craters, surrounded by at least 20 smaller holes, is just six miles from a major gas production plant.
Experts have predicted there could be up to 30 more are waiting to be discovered.
Scientsts, however, are still largely baffled by the exact processes causing the craters.
Professor Vasily Bogoyavlensky, deputy director of the Moscow-based Oil and Gas Research Institute, part of the Russian Academy of Sciences, has called for 'urgent' investigation of the new phenomenon amid safety fears.
Until now, the existence of only three Siberian craters had been established when great caverns in the frozen landscape were spotted by passing helicopter pilots.
'We know now of seven craters in the Arctic area,' Professor Bogoyavlensky told The Siberian Times.
'Five are directly on the Yamal peninsula, one in Yamal Autonomous district, and one is on the north of the Krasnoyarsk region, near the Taimyr peninsula.
'We have exact locations for only four of them.
'The other three were spotted by reindeer herders.
'But I am sure that there are more craters on Yamal, we just need to search for them. I would compare this with mushrooms.
'When you find one mushroom, be sure there are few more around. I suppose there could be 20 to 30 craters more.'
Two of the newly-discovered large craters - also known as funnels to scientists - have turned into lakes, revealed Professor Bogoyavlensky.
'It is important not to scare people, but this is a very serious problem.
'We must research this phenomenon urgently to prevent possible disasters.
We cannot rule out new gas emissions in the Arctic and in some cases they can ignite.

Professor Bogoyavlensky said that the parapet of the craters suggested an eruption of gas from a shallow underground reservoir.
The first hole was spotted in 2013 by helicopter pilots 20 miles from a gas extraction plant at Bovanenkovo, on the Yamal Peninsula.
An examination of the area using satellite images, comparing landscapes in the past with the present day, has alerted Russian experts to the prospect that the phenomenon is more widespread than first thought.

Simmering: Methane gas can be seen bubbling up out of this lake in the Yamal region and is thought to be an old crater
Experts are particularly interested in a crater they have named B2, which just six miles to the south of the Gazprom gas field at Bovanenkovo.
Old satellite imagery shows no sign of craters at the site but more recent images show there is now a lake there measuring about 5,000 square metres.
The lake is thought to have formed in a hole that is 100 metres by 50 metres in diametre and is surrounded by 20 smaller holes filled with water that are around one to two metres wide.
Residents living near to another of the craters, close to Antipayuta on the Yamal Peninsula, reported seeing a flash of light.
This has led some to conclude that it was the result of gas trapped in the permafrost exploding.
Professor Bogoyavlensky said: 'We need to answer now the basic questions: what areas, and under what conditions, are the most dangerous?

When this crater was discovered in 2014, theories ranged from a man-made hoax, to aliens or a meteorite
'These questions are important for the safe operation of the northern cities and infrastructure of oil and gas complexes.'
There is already scientific concern that Lake Baikal, the largest and oldest freshwater lake in the world, but well outside the Arctic Circle, could be at risk of similar gas explosions.
Scientists have previously said there is growing evidence that rising temperatures in the region could be the main catalyst triggering the blasts.
It is thought permafrost at the sites could have one million times more methane hydrates locked inside than ordinary gas.
One expert estimated that the total explosive power of the craters has been the equivalent of about 11 tonnes of TNT.

In the winter the sides of the craters freeze, like above, making it easier for scientists to take samples
There are also two tectonic fault lines across the Yamal Peninsula, with another possibility being that the blow-outs are caused by a deadly combination of heat leaving these rifts, a higher than normal air temperature, and the 'fire ice' melting.
Professor Bogoyavlensky revealed one picture of a Yamal lake showing signs of what he calls 'degassing'.
'This haze that you see on the surface shows gas seeps from the bottom of the lake to the surface,' he said. 'We call this process 'degassing'.'
He is not sure if this lake, too, was previously a crater 'or if the lake formed from another process.
'More important is that the gases from within are actively seeping through this lake.'

Vier gapende gaten gevonden in het noorden van Rusland
Vier gapende gaten gevonden in het noorden van Rusland
In het noorden van Rusland zijn vier reusachtige kraters gevonden. De mysterieuze gaten bevinden zich in hetzelfde gebied als drie andere kraters die verleden jaar op het Jamal-schiereiland zijn gevonden.
De kraters zijn vermoedelijk veroorzaakt door explosies door methaangas. Eén van de kraters, die wordt omringd door 20 kleinere gaten, ligt op slechts enkele kilometers van een grote gasraffinaderij. Volgens experts zullen binnenkort nog een dertigtal kraters worden gevonden.
Wetenschappers hebben nog altijd geen idee hoe de kraters precies ontstaan. Professor Vasily Bogoyavlensky van de Russische Academie van Wetenschappen pleit voor onderzoek naar het nieuwe fenomeen. “We weten nu van het bestaan van zeven kraters in het Poolgebied,” zei hij. “Vijf bevinden zich op het Jamal-schiereiland, één in Jamalië en één in Krasnojarsk. Van vier kraters weten we precies waar ze liggen, de rest is gespot door herders.”
“Ik ben er zeker van dat er meer kraters op Jamal zijn te vinden, we moeten er alleen naar zoeken,” vervolgde hij. “Ik denk dat er nog 20 tot 30 kraters zullen worden ontdekt.”
Twee van de pas ontdekte kraters zijn veranderd in meren. Experts zijn met name geïnteresseerd in een krater die B2 is genoemd. De krater ligt op 10 kilometer van het gasveld Bovanenkovo van Gazprom.
Op oude satellietbeelden zijn geen kraters te zien, maar op nieuwe foto’s wordt een meer zichtbaar met een oppervlak van ruim 1500 vierkante meter. Bewoners van het gebied rond de kraters zeiden een lichtflits te hebben gezien. Volgens sommigen kan deze flits wijzen op een explosie van gas dat gevangen zat in de permafrost.
De internationale UFO gemeenschap is in rep en roer vanwege een mogelijk neergestorte UFO in een bevroren meer in Canada.
Het leger zou zijn uitgerukt, toegangswegen afgesloten en diverse getuigen melden dat ze een schijfvormig object hebben gezien.
Vorige week woensdagavond circuleerden er allerlei berichten op de sociale media dat er vreemde lichten (UFO) waren waargenomen boven Lake Winnipeg in Canada.
Even later veranderden die berichten in dat er een schijfvormige UFO was neergestort in het bevroren meer en dat het leger ter plaatste was om de bergingsoperatie uit te voeren.
Vervolgens zijn er dan allerlei verwarrende berichten van getuigen die dingen zouden hebben gezien.
Hier komt direct het probleem om de hoek kijken. Onmiddellijk duiken namelijk de firma’s die veel geld verdienen met het maken van nepvideo’s zoals de beruchte Blake Cousins van Third Phase of the Moon op dit verhaal en komen met allerlei verhalen en getuigenverklaringen.
Onderstaande is ook weer zo’n foto gemaakt door “een getuige”, maar er bestaat geen enkele zekerheid over de echtheid ervan.
Maargoed, als we dat soort dingen terzijde schuiven dan blijft er nog steeds een interessant verhaal over.
Het Canadese leger komt met een vage verklaring dat ze daar net “toevallig” aan het oefenen waren. Dit is het meest gebruikte excuus van overheden en defensie wanneer er sprake is van UFO-activiteit.
Ook een wel heel merkwaardige verklaring van Luitenant-Colonel Paul Davies, leider van het team van het Canadese leger dat eveneens “toevallig” oefende op het hulp bieden nadat een vliegtuig was neergestort.
Davies vertelde dat het vreemde licht dat mensen hadden gezien afkomstig was van een vliegtuig dat meedeed aan de oefening en dat in staat is om bijna verticaal op te stijgen.
“Daarom lijkt het alsof het licht recht de lucht ingaat, maar dat is niet zo”. Het vreemde is dat geen van de mensen die de lichten meldden iets gezegd hebben over dat ze recht de lucht in gingen. Men had het over een licht dat zichtbaar was en vervolgens leek neer te storten.
Kortom, het lijkt erop dat er inderdaad iets merkwaardigs is gebeurd in Canada.
Echter, met al die nepbedrijven die bewust kletsverhalen rondstrooien, wordt het er niet gemakkelijker op om de waarheid boven tafel te krijgen.
Waarschijnlijk is even rustig afwachten de beste strategie en dan hopen dat er echte, betrouwbare getuigen naarvoren komen die kunnen worden geïdentificeerd.
Social media reports of a possible UFO sighting last night near Jackhead, Man., are not true, says the Canadian Forces, which attributed the bright light people saw to an airplane from a training exercise.
On Wednesday night, several people said on Twitter and Facebook that they saw a bright light in the sky, fuelling speculation that it may have been an unidentified flying object.
The rumour became stronger when photos were posted of Canadian Forces vehicles in the area, with some people claiming the military was there to contain a UFO crash site.
But it was not a UFO at all, says Lt.-Col. Paul Davies, commanding officer 38 Territorial Battalion Group, which is involved in an Arctic Response Company Group training exercise on Lake Winnipeg this week
A picture recently circulated online showing people looking at a mysterious object. Experts are left baffled with this UFO in the skies over Cornwall, UK. They encourage anyone who can help identify the unusual aerial object that was spotted above a beach in Bude few days ago to come forward.
Founder of the Cornwall UFO group, Dave Gillham, said that it looks triangular, but he has no idea about the identity of that thing.
After the Ministry of Defence (MOD) stopped the line for people who want to report UFOs, the data about the subject has since been collected by independent organisations, such as the UK UFO and British UFO Research Association.
The MOD said that it has no opinion about the existence of extra-terrestrial life or otherwise. However, it noted that no UFO report has revealed any proof of a potential threat to the UK in over 50 years of collecting such data. In this connection, MOD said that it will no longer receive report on UFO sightings or investigate them.
John Wickham of BUFORA said that since the shutdown of the MOD line for UFO report, they have received a massive increase in calls. Wickham noted that most reported sightings are explainable with some research, but if a military is involved, the MOD are willing to call it a UFO to keep their secrets. However, Wickham stressed that they always respect the beliefs of everyone.
Former Obama aide and well-known X-Files obsessive John Podesta tweeted this month that his "biggest failure of 2014" was "Once again not securing the #disclosure of the UFO files."
Many assume that Podesta will soon sign up for the still-hypothetical Hillary Clinton presidential campaign, which means that the UFO lobby might just endorse Clinton for a second time if decides to run.
Stephen Bassett, former head of the Extraterrestrial Phenomena Political Action Committee and head of the Paradigm Research Group (which runs a blog about presidential UFO news and hosted an off-brand hearing in 2013 for ex-members of Congress on government transparency in matters extraterrestrial), told the Huffington Post in 2008 that Hillary Clinton "knows this issue is not trivial," given her relationship with Podesta, who has long advocated for the government to declassify documents relating to UFO sightings. Nearly eight years later, Bassett is still trying to access any government documents on UFOs, and still hoping that Hillary Clinton will reach out to constituents like him.
Roll Call published a story about Bassett's efforts on Monday morning, which ended with the lobbyist's thoughts on the 2016 election. He doesn't see a path to victory for Hillary Clinton that does not involve discussing the potential of celestial circumnavigation.
“As far as I’m concerned … Hillary Clinton is not going to become the president of the United States without going through the extraterrestrial issue," Bassett told Roll Call. "Period."
Clinton could always outsource discussions of aliens to another high-profile space expert on her team. Bill Clinton recently disclosed that he did not find any evidence of extraterrestrial life at Roswell or Area 51 during his presidency.
Bassett also suggested that Republican candidates should also support a pro-transparency UFO agenda, before Russian President Vladimir Putin beats them to it. "If Bassett wants to reach out to the GOP, 2016 hopeful and noted Putin hater Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.), who heads the Senate Subcommittee on Space, Science, and Competitiveness, might be a good person to start with. "
Life beyond Earth has been a reliable recurring feature of presidential coverage. In 2012, Newt Gingrich, who had an uncredited appearance as an alien in Men in Black, vowed to build a permanent base on the moon. During a 2008 presidential debate, Dennis Kucinich discussed his UFO sighting, and Sen. Barack Obama said that he did not know if there was life out there. During a 1992 presidential debate, Independent candidate Ross Perot managed to bring extraterrestrial life into a discussion about gridlock. "It's not the Republicans' fault, of course, and it's not the Democrats' fault. Somewhere out there there's an extraterrestrial that's doing this to us, I guess."
In 1997, CNN found that 80 percent of Americans thought the government was hiding information about aliens. Ninety-three percent of respondents had never been abducted by aliens or known someone who had been kidnapped and taken to another universe.

UFO-MANIA : City Found 360 Feet Below Missouri City, Giant Human Skeleton Found
UFO-MANIA : City Found 360 Feet Below Missouri City, Giant Human Skeleton Found
Coal miners in the city of Moberly, Missouri mining a shaft 360 feet deep, broke into a cavern revealing “a wonderful buried city,”multiple sources reportedin 1885.
Incredible rude style masonry and artifacts have been identified. Including stone benches, bronze and flint knives, stone and granite hammers, metal statues, metallic saws and a stone fountain that flowed with “perfectly pure water”, which was found to be impregnated with lime.
“Lying beside the fountain were portions of a human being and from measurement of the bones it concluded that when alive the figure was three times the size of an ordinary man and possessed of wonderful muscular power and quickness. “, according to the St Paul Daily Globe.
The Semi-Weekly South Kentuckian published the measurements of the giants leg, “The bones of the leg were measured , the femur measuring 4 and 1/2 feet, the tibia four feet and three inches. The head bones had separated in two pieces, the sagittal and cornal suturis having been destroyed”
The city was arched in by a hard and thick stratum of lava. The civilization used a regularly laid out road system enclosed by walls to travel around. A hall was discovered wherein were stone benches, tools of all descriptions for mechanical service.
The searching party spent twelve hours in the depths and only gave up explorations because of the oil in their lamps being low. No end to the wonderful discovery was reached.
The statues were not accurately made as those made by the mechanics in the year 1885, however they demonstrated much skill and an evidence of an advanced civilization.
The facts above are vouched for by Mr. David Coates, the recorder of the city of Moberly, and Mr. George Kealing, City Marshall, who were of the exploring party.
I could find no record of the 2nd exploration. Perhaps in the historic papers on film, in the town of Moberly, information may still exist.
In order to find 8 newspaper stories I needed to search “stratum of lava” 1884-1886.
In an odd coincidence the terms “cave + Missouri”, “Missouri + cave + coal mine”, “Missouri cave fountain”, “Missouri gaint” and countless other rational terms would not locate these articles on the library of congress website.
It seems you need to be clever in your search terms in order to locate historical articles that are relevant.
Unicum: UFO-ontvoering officieel erkend door Amerikaans museum
Unicum: UFO-ontvoering officieel erkend door Amerikaans museum
De Great Barrington Historical Society & Museum heeft de UFO-ontvoering van de 55-jarige Thomas Reed officieel erkend. Het Great Barrington-museum heeft na lang beraad geconcludeerd dat Reed ontvoerd moet zijn geweest door aliens.
“Ik weet dat dit moeilijk te verteren is,” zei Reed. “Het is voor mij zelfs moeilijk te verteren.” Reed en zijn jongere broer Matthew maakten in de jaren zestig een aantal vreemde gebeurtenissen mee. In 1966 zag de 6-jarige Reed vreemde lichten en figuren in de hal van het huis waar hij woonde.
Plotseling bevonden de twee zich in een vreemd schip waar ze werden onderzocht en de projectie van een wilg zagen. Het jaar erop zag Reed opnieuw vreemde lichten, sloegen deuren dicht en waren zijn broer en hij weer in het vreemde schip. Voordat hij er erg in had stond hij op de oprit waar zijn moeder al die tijd naar hem had gezocht.
Twee jaar later, in 1969, was de familie Reed op een avond onderweg toen de hele familie (Thomas, Matthew, moeder en grootmoeder) plotseling in een grote ruimte met ‘mierachtige wezens’ stond. Het volgende moment zaten ze weer in de auto.
Hoewel de gebroeders Reed niet precies weten wat er is gebeurd, speculeren ze dat buitenaardse wezens er iets mee te maken hebben gehad. De Great Barrington Historical Society & Museum heeft besloten dat het gaat om feitelijke gebeurtenissen.
Wat betekent dat? “Het betekent dat we geloven dat het echt is gebeurd,” zei directeur Debbie Oppermann tegenover de Boston Globe. “Ik weet dat we hier veel moeilijkheden mee gaan krijgen. Maar we hebben er lang over na gedacht en gebaseerd op het bewijs dat we hebben gekregen zijn wij van mening dat het een waargebeurd verhaal is.”
Oppermann legde uit dat het voor het eerst is dat een museum of geschiedkundige vereniging in de Verenigde Staten een UFO-ontvoering officieel heeft erkend. Het museum is met name geïnteresseerd in de gebeurtenissen in 1969, omdat er toen door meerdere mensen UFO’s zijn gezien.
The mysterious and most probably smelly bipedal man-beast that has been purported to roam the North American wilderness has been called many names but “Bigfoot” is the most well-known.
There have been records of it since 1950 but no concrete evidence – teeth, hair, bones or any other parts found. The most authentic proof is the famous film shot by Patterson and Gimlin in California in 1967 and it appears to show a man dressed in a cheap gorilla costume more than anything else.
Loch Ness Monster
Best known as the Loch Ness Monster, Nessie is the sea monster thought to inhabit the Loch Ness in Scotland. It was first sighted in 1933 and since then numerous locals and tourists have claimed to have seen something in the cold depths.
According to some, Nessie is a Plesiosaur, a gigantic marine reptile from the age of the dinosaurs. Despite the eyewitness testimony, hoax photographs and scientific research, there is still no legitimate proof for the existence of Nessie.
Jersey Devil
This mythical monster was said to have been born in the beginning of the 18th century. According to folklore, a woman in the New Jersey area literally gave birth to the cursed creature, with the head of a horse, wings of a bat and devil’s hooves.
Over the centuries, the legend has been fueled by fictitious tales, hoaxes and on occasion, strange sightings in the woods, but according to Loren Coleman’s book “Monsters of New Jersey” there has not yet been any solid evidence that this is anything more than a myth.
Montauk Monster
A relatively recent addition to the list of monsters, the Montauk Monster was a strange creature that washed up on the beach of Montauk, New York in July 2008.
A photograph of the 4-legged animal showing its claws and almost no fur has been circulating the Internet. Some say it is a hoax, others believe it was once a pig or some kind of unknown, genetically modified animal.
Fiji Mermaid
Even though mermaids in general are not included on any list of monsters, the Fiji mermaid is an exception. The showman P. T. Barnum revealed the infamous Fiji mermaid in 1840 – but this was no beautiful, half naked woman-fish but a creature with a horrifying head, the torso of a small monkey and the tail of a fish.
Of course, it was not real – upon close inspection one could see the hand stitching that connected the 2 animals. This was just one of several fake mermaids created to profit off the public’s curiosity.
Sea Monsters
Tales of sea monsters have existed for thousands of years. The 1752 book “The Natural History of Norway” describes a monster called a Kraken being the size of a small island, flat and with numerous tentacles.
Often it was under the dominance of the sea gods. Nowadays, sightings of sea monsters are very rare and scientists believe that many of the past eyewitness testimonies were actually describing gigantic cephalopods, capable of reaching lengths of over 32 ft (10 m).
Ogopogo
It look as though each country has its own lake monster. Ogopogo or the Canadian Loch Ness Monster is a mythical beast which many believe to be hiding in Okanagan Lake in British Columbia.
Centuries ago, the local population believed that a water sprite inhabited the lake and they carried out human sacrifices to appease the sea demon.
Ogopogo actually bears the name of a popular dance song and even though there is a lack of scientific evidence, people periodically tell of strange things happening in the lake.
BILDENBERG GRAND EVENT ATTRACTS BLACK ALIEN DISC JUNE 10, 2013 ……… GROVE HOTEL, WATFORD UNITED KINGDOM
The reasons I waited two years before coming out with my story is that I thought my sighting was a common one. After searching online and looking at many of the pictures I realized my sighting can be absolutely counted in the top five per cent for clarity and for the fact that certainly what I saw couldn’t be confused with anything I knew. Let’s start from the beginning: at the time I was living in the North of Watford near a hotel called Grove and where from the sixth to the ninth of June 2013 it was held the Bilderberg group meeting, a closed-door gathering where prime ministers and tycoons meet every year. I had never seen before such a high level of security and hundreds of police men gathered from all around England to patrol the area. I remember an helicopter day and night flying over the area, even weeks before. A metallic fence was built all around the hotel and an entire road was closed, forcing the people living there to go to work with the passport. When the gathering finished all the security shutdown completely in just few hours. It was one of two days after the end of the Bilderberg that I had my sighting. It was about ten o’clock in the evening, and the bedroom’s window, facing the other way of the hotel, was open. A light brighter than the stars captured my attention and I started looking more closely to try to figure out what it was. Then the light became brighter and brighter, moving toward me, until I clearly recognized a disc shaped object completely black with the light all around. I couldn’t explain how the object could still be so dark, when it was completely sorrounded by a light. It was like if the center of the object was not emitting any lights and that didn’t make any sense to me. But even before thinking this, my first thought was: then they really exist! And they are really like they have always been described! I tried to reach out my phone with the eyes fixed on the object. But I didn’t want to loose any seconds of a so important moment, and then when it started moving away on my right I realized it was too late for a shoot. It drifted away slowly and it took more than 30 seconds to disappear. When it was closer, I didn’t hear any sounds coming from the object, but the details were so clear that if it had been an airplane I could have clearly seen the windows. However the shape was solid black and I could only recognize it because of the bright light around. It was like a disc with a sort of bump along the lower side and a dome on the top of it. Afterwards I thought it could have been a drone, considering that the Bilderberg was held the days before. I googled extensively about all the types of drones, but I couldn’t find any that could explain my sighting. I also couldn’t find any reports in the local news. However when I searched in Youtube words like “Bilderberg”, “Watford” and “ufo” I could find a video about drones. So it looked like drones were deployed over the area, but they were so different from what I saw that I simply ignored those videos. Now I often feel angry for the biggest error in my life: not having been able to take a picture of what I saw that day, and for not being able to talk about it without being considered crazy. I hope someone can give me some more information about similar sighting. I’m not interested in other types of ufos, lights, strange objects. I wanna only have some more context about that particular kind of disc shaped black objects. – MUFON CMS KENS NOTE: The Bilderberg Group is an annual private conference of approximately 120–150 political leaders and experts from industry, finance, academia and the media. About two thirds of the participants come from Europe and the rest from North America; one third from politics and government and the rest from other fields. In 2001, Denis Healey, a Bilderberg group founder and, for 30 years, a steering committee member, said: “To say we were striving for a one-world government is exaggerated, but not wholly unfair. Those of us in Bilderberg felt we couldn’t go on forever fighting one another for nothing and killing people and rendering millions homeless. So we felt that a single community throughout the world would be a good thing.

Aliens! Could humans really be alone in this expansive universe? And if we’re not, how come we’ve never made contact with other intelligent life?
Everyone’s thought about it; especially members of the scientific community.
Join Gabe as he presents some of the most popular theories that scientists use to rationalize their support or skepticism of the existence of aliens.
We may never know the answer to this age old question, but a little scientific thinking never hurt anybody!
Gabe Perez-Giz is an astrophysicist who studies various aspects of black hole physics. He received his PhD from Columbia University and then worked as a postdoctoral researcher at NYU’s Center for Cosmology and Particle Physics. He also mentors high school students in astronomical research projects at the American Museum of Natural History.
Note: It seems the scientific community finally takes it seriously, if we talking about the exists of intelligent life forms, given the fact that Mr. Gabe Perez-Giz has openend his YouTube account just two weeks ago, on February 9, 2015, posted only two videos resulting in 4140 subscribers and 170,000 views so far.. Not a bad result for someone who uploaded his first video on February 11, 2015.
I could be wrong, but I wonder if there is more behind the opening of this YouTube account than just to spread presentations of some of the most popular theories that scientists use to rationalize their support or skepticism of the existence of aliens.
Host: George Knapp Guests: Jacques F. Vallee, Ray Stanford Date: 22nd February 2015
Over two decades ago, eminent scientist Jacques Vallee wrote a provocative book about UFO cases, folklore, and certain unexplained phenomena. He joined George Knapp in the first half to discuss that original groundbreaking work Passport to Magonia, which changed our understanding of the UFO phenomenon by connecting documents and data from earlier centuries that related to incidents in the modern era. Among the numerous parallels between UFOs, folklore, and religious traditions were tales of fairies, elves, leprechauns, apparitions, and strange creatures.
In Celtic regions, witnesses described seeing fairies who were accompanied by strange oval objects from the sky, and these beings were also known for abducting people– not unlike modern reports of alien abduction, he pointed out. A ninth century account from the Archbishop of Lyon, France dealt with three people who were said to emerge from a flying ship– villagers thought they came from a magical land called Magonia that was beyond the clouds. Vallee spoke of how UFO phenomena seems to straddle different layers of reality, and what witnesses actually observe may be modulated by their individual consciousness. People in Asia view the phenomenon as part of nature, and the alien beings hailing from a different plane, rather than another planet, he added.
In the latter half, Ray Stanford, who has been investigating the Socorro UFO landing for over 50 years, shared not only the details he presented in his seminal 1970s book Socorro ‘Saucer’ in a Pentagon Pantry, but further evidence in the case. The incident took place in April 1964, when Lonnie Zamora, a New Mexico policeman, heard a loud roar and saw a descending object in the sky in flames. In his patrol car, he tracked the craft to where it had landed in a ravine on the outskirts of Socorro, and saw two small beings beside it. The beings were the size of children, and dressed in something like white coveralls, Zamora reported. Several other witnesses described seeing an object in the sky, and landing traces and soil were subsequently tested.
Stanford made numerous trips to Socorro, to examine the scene and interview Zamora and other witnesses. He found Zamora to be highly credible in his accounts, and famed ufologist J. Allen Hynek also came to town to investigate. Directly after the incident other patrolmen arrived on the scene, including one who took photos– he was asked to turn over the images to the government, and some of the photos reportedly showed the effects of radiation, Stanford detailed. Zamora made a drawing of the red insignia he saw on the side of the craft, yet the military ended up changing the look of the drawing to deliberately obfuscate the public, in order to determine if future sightings might be copycat hoaxes, Stanford explained. He further revealed that he has acquired an actual photo of the craft, which he’s hoping to use for publication in an updated book on the Socorro incident.
Hubble sees pulverised planet in Beta Pictoris debris disc?
Hubble sees pulverised planet in Beta Pictoris debris disc?
Space Telescope Science Institute Press Release
The bottom image is the most detailed picture to date of a large, edge-on, gas-and-dust disc encircling the 20-million-year-old star Beta Pictoris. The new visible-light Hubble image traces the disc to within about 650 million miles of the star (which is inside the radius of Saturn’s orbit about the Sun). When comparing the latest images to Hubble images taken in 1997 (top), astronomers find that the disc’s dust distribution has barely changed over 15 years despite the fact that the entire structure is orbiting the star like a carousel. Note: he images have been artificially coloured to bring out detail in the disc’s structure and a coronagraph blocks out the glare of the central star so that the disc can be seen. Image credit: NASA, ESA, and D. Apai and G. Schneider (University of Arizona)
Beta Pictoris remains the only directly imaged debris disc that has a giant planet (discovered in 2009). Because the orbital period is comparatively short (estimated to be between 18 and 22 years), astronomers can see large motion in just a few years. This allows scientists to study how the Beta Pictoris disc is distorted by the presence of a massive planet embedded within the disc.
The new visible-light Hubble image traces the disc in closer to the star to within about 650 million miles of the star (which is inside the radius of Saturn’s orbit about the Sun).
“Some computer simulations predicted a complicated structure for the inner disc due to the gravitational pull by the short-period giant planet. The new images reveal the inner disc and confirm the predicted structures. This finding validates models, which will help us to deduce the presence of other exoplanets in other discs,” said Daniel Apai of the University of Arizona. The gas-giant planet in the Beta Pictoris system was directly imaged in infrared light by the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope six years ago.
When comparing the latest Hubble images to Hubble images taken in 1997, astronomers find that the disc’s dust distribution has barely changed over 15 years despite the fact that the entire structure is orbiting the star like a carousel. This means the disc’s structure is smoothly continuous in the direction of its rotation on the timescale, roughly, of the accompanying planet’s orbital period.
In 1984 Beta Pictoris was the very first star discovered to host a bright disc of light-scattering circumstellar dust and debris. Ever since then Beta Pictoris has been an object of intensive scrutiny with Hubble and with ground-based telescopes. Hubble spectroscopic observations in 1991 found evidence for extrasolar comets frequently falling into the star.
The disc is easily seen because it is tilted edge-on and is especially bright due to a very large amount of starlight-scattering dust. What’s more, Beta Pictoris is closer to Earth (63 light-years) than most of the other known disc systems.
Though nearly all of the approximately two-dozen known light-scattering circumstellar discs have been viewed by Hubble to date, Beta Pictoris is the first and best example of what a young planetary system looks like, say researchers.
One thing astronomers have recently learned about circumstellar debris discs is that their structure, and amount of dust, is incredibly diverse and may be related to the locations and masses of planets in those systems. “The Beta Pictoris disc is the prototype for circumstellar debris systems, but it may not be a good archetype,” said co-author Glenn Schneider of the University of Arizona.
For one thing the Beta Pictoris disc is exceptionally dusty. This may be due to recent major collisions among unseen planet-size and asteroid-size bodies embedded within it. In particular, a bright lobe of dust and gas on the southwestern side of the disc may be the result of the pulverisation of a Mars-size body in a giant collision.
This colour composite image shows a curious asymmetry in the disc’s dust and gas distribution. This may be due to a planetary collision within the disc, which may have pulverised the bodies. Radio data from the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) shows the dust (1.3 millimeter is coloured green) and carbon monoxide gas (coloured red). Image credit: NASA, ESA, D. Apai and G. Schneider (University of Arizona), NRAO and W.R.F. Dent (ALMA, Santiago, Chile)
Both the 1997 and 2012 images were taken in visible light with Hubble’s Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph in its coronagraphic imaging mode. A coronagraph blocks out the glare of the central star so that the disc can be seen.
For a detailed discussion of Beta Pictoris, view the following recording of the February 19th Hubble Hangout event:
As I was looking through live cams I came across this one in Italy. A pillar-like UFO has been hovering there nightly. I like to focus on Italy because of the Friendship Case. I have been watching this UFO for several years and believe it to be parked and cloaked. The cloak is visible due to the infrared lights connected to the live cam. To the human eye, this UFO is invisible. Today its less focused, but I have seen it with a fine metal skin before on this cam. Skeptics will say its a reflection due to the security lights below. I say its not. If it were, then it would not exist in the early morning when the sun begins to rise, but it is...for a little while and then disappears. If its there when the lights are off, then that is proof the lights are not the cause. Clearly a local Italian in the area has parked his cloaked ship above his home assuming no human would be intelligent enough to know its there. They were mistaken. SCW
In light of the recent UFO activity in Manitoba, I thought I'd present the Stephan Michalak encounter at Falcon Lake:
Canada's most noteworthy and dramatic UFO report came out of Falcon Lake, Manitoba, on May 20, 1967. Around noon on that day, an amateur geologist named Stephen Michalak was chipping rock samples when he was startled by the appearance of two red, cigar-shaped craft descending to the earth close to him. While one merely hovered briefly, then shot upward into the cloud cover, the other settled to the ground. It slowed and made a sound what Michalak said sounded like an engine. As it cooled down, its color changed from red to gold. Michalak, who managed quickly to sketch what he was looking at, estimated the UFO to be 12 feet high and about 35 feet across at the base. His sketches included slots surrounding a dome-like projection at the top, and ventilation or exhaust grids along the sides. He also observed purplish light glowing through the side grates and a powerful odour of sulphur coming from the ship.
Suddenly, a hatch opened at the side of the UFO, and Michalak was able to make out voices just inside the hatchway. He tried calling out, in several different languages, to no avail, there was no response. He approached the craft, and the hatch shut abruptly, as though the UFO discouraged any further attempts at communication. The geologist was wearing heavy, protective clothing, including gloves and goggles. Still, he could detect warmth radiating off the structure's surface. When he reached out to touch it, his glove melted. Then, without warning, Michalak was blown off his feet by a blast of incredible heat from one of the UFO's side vents.
As the craft shot upward, Michalak was left lying on his back, stunned, with his clothing on fire. Michalak's fantastic tale might have been dismissed as the product of an overactive imagination had he not been admitted to a hospital with severe radiation burns and many symptoms indicative of radiation poisoning. His stomach even showed a pattern of 30 circular burns exactly matching the grid pattern of the UFO's side vents. Specialists who examined him advised him that any additional exposure to the radioactive source would have proved fatal.
Since the Falcon Lake Incident, UFO activity has continued in the southeastern part of Manitoba. In fact, there has been a notable increase over the past year.
In the summer of 2008, the average number of reported UFO sightings nearly tripled, according to Chris Rutkowski, research coordinator for Ufology Research of Manitoba, a Winnipeg-based independent centre that investigates and researches Canadian UFO sightings.
"It's significantly above what we normally get," said Rutkowski, adding 11 sightings in Manitoba were submitted in September alone.
The monthly average is about three or four, he said.
Ufology Research is concerned that most of the sightings were not reported to investigators in Manitoba but were instead submitted to websites around the globe.
That makes it difficult for researchers here to speak to witnesses, collect further information and potentially rule out objects as planets or stars instead of UFOs.
"Every year, it's whittled down to about 3% to 5% that don't have an easy explanation," said Rutkowski.
One of the more interesting sightings came from a witness parked near Headingley about 2 a.m. on Sept. 10, 2008.
The man claims he heard a humming sound and then saw a light in the northern sky. He turned and saw a "floating disc" land in a field. Scared, he jumped in his car and drove away. In his rearview mirror, the witness said he saw the object rise from the ground and race across the sky before vanishing.
As for the rise in UFO sightings, Rutkowski said it's possible there's something out there or that "people are paying more attention to their surroundings."
MUFON received a report on an unusual sighting on July 28, 2008 that took place over Lake Winnipeg.
“My father took pictures of a UFO event while at the lake. These pictures were taken over Lake Winnipeg near Gimli, Manitoba - Willow Island. These objects were in the sky hovering for approx. 5 minutes then disappeared. The pictures were taken with an 8 mega pixel camera and have amazing.”
On September 14, 2008, Brian Vike of HBCC UFO Research reported an incident that happened on November 2, 2006 near the community of Steinbach in southeastern Manitoba.
Reported on Winnipeg radio station (s) in the early am, people phoning in with reports from the Steinbach area of flaming objects passing overhead and falling out of the sky. No reports of any kind on Steinbach Radio. Military dispatched to the Steinbach area, jets seen flying low overhead around Steinbach area (reported only on Winnipeg Radio). From Winnipeg 5 or 6 nearly parallel contrails can be seen in the sky, going Northwest to Southeast (toward Steinbach) another contrail in the Southeast in the shape of a spiral going down. The Contrails may or may not be related.
Radio reports in Winnipeg end around 9:00AM, no more said until the afternoon when Steinbach stations begin reporting that rumors of UFO's turns out to be men in white suits performing Avian Flu practice at a farm near Steinbach. Nothing is mentioned about flaming items flying overhead, military investigations or about anything else suspicious currently happening Southwest of Steinbach.
That morning around 10:30am a group of residents, unaware of the reports of flaming debris reported only on Winnipeg radio stations are surprised when 5 Black Suburban's (MIB) and 2 Black, 1 white, 3-ton panel vans with satellite dishes and a hearse in convoy with a police escort show up in a farming area Southwest of Steinbach.
Residents are quarantined to their homes. They are told to stay inside, lock all doors, close curtains and keep dogs and children inside. Residents with children in school are told if the all clear is not given when the children come home from school they are to unlock their doors, one of them is to meet the bus at the road and walk their children directly into the house then relock the doors.
Some Residents are told a search is on for BNE suspects for a local robbery - there had been a BNE a few miles away on the weekend. The guys were already caught when this happened. Some are told there is drug bust in progress - even had one guy tell a friend they were looking for a downed spacecraft - would really like to know why he said that.
Area is somewhat remote - only 5 farmyards in one square mile. That same day around 6:00 PM, residents are given the all clear and again given differing stories, but generally told that the MIB have caught the bad guys. Residents expect to hear more on the news but never hear another word about "the bust". MIB remain in the area until the weekend, when residents observe a fire in the area where the MIB are set up and the MIB leave somewhere around this time.
Original Steinbach radio reports state Avian Flu operators working at a farm 3 miles southwest, (same area Men in Black currently working) then changes to near Landmark Northwest of Steinbach.
Evening TV stations reports avian flu preparedness measures (training) 3 miles S of Landmark - about 20 miles north of morning reports and SUVs' and quarantine.
Reports of flaming debris or military investigations in the Steinbach area never are discussed on the news again. Stories of the MIB performing a drug bust/ arrest, never make it to the news at all.
I was out of town - got back 3rd in evening to catch TV reports of avian flu but didn't think anything of it. I didn't hear the rest of the story till the 8th. One week later a fire is reported in the vicinity. Two weeks later it snows and all trace is gone. Unfortunately it was only at this time that I found the exact location of these events or I would have gone snooping.
Vike speculates that for WPG radio stations to report an event, one of two things had to have happened. Enough people have to call in or they have to have credible witnesses or reporters. If this had happened really early in the am, no one or very few people would have seen anything. If it had happened a little later in the am, way too many people would have seen it and it couldn't have been covered up so easily.
His conclusion was that the US lost a secret aircraft (that probably shouldn't have been in Canadian airspace) and then came up from Grand Forks to investigate and recover.
This theory may be correct because this area is very close to the US / Canada border and since 2005, Grand Fork AFB harbors many new UAV and emerging missions under Homeland Security. It’s safe to assume that ‘black book’ operations are also conducted at this location.
But military exercises cannot account for all of these sightings in this area.

Utsurobune: The UFO (unidentified floating object) of 19th Century Japan
Utsurobune: The UFO (unidentified floating object) of 19th Century Japan
The image above is one of many illustrations of the Utsurobune no Banjo incident that happened in Japan in the early 19th century. Although there are various accounts of the event, it is believed by many to have been an encounter with extraterrestrials, and not just because the vessel fishermen found in the ocean looks like a flying saucer.
■ The incident One day late in the winter of 1803, some fishermen located a vessel floating in the Pacific Ocean of the coast of Ibaraki Prefecture. They towed it back to the shore for further investigation.
It’s been described as a round “boat” with some iron plating and glass windows. On the windows were strange geometric shapes that they had never seen before. This craft, which was dubbed an utsurobune or “hollow boat,” measured somewhere between 5 to 10 meters (16.4 to 32.8 feet) across.
Upon opening the craft they found a woman inside. The woman was described as a banjo, a word which meant “barbarian woman” or simply referred to a white woman. Remember, political correctness was still ages away at this point.
However, this woman spoke a language that no one could understand and likewise she couldn’t understand them. She wore clothes like they had never seen and a long white colored hair extension. She also clung to a rather large box that no one was allowed to look inside.
With communication at an impasse the locals all decided the best course of action would be to put her back in the craft and into the ocean where she came from. That’s just what they did and the woman was never heard from again. You have to hand it to old-timey Japanese people. They really knew how to deal with a complex situation efficiently.
■ What was it? The problem was solved for them at least. For the rest of us it just leaves one big question mark over what exactly happened there. The combination of strange clothes, language, symbols and boat leads many to envision an alien encounter. Added to that, all of the illustrations of the utsurobune certainly seem to resemble a flying saucer (bear in mind they are not drawn to scale).
However, a more likely explanation may have been a hot air balloon’s gondola. Ballooning was just becoming big in Western countries around this time and widely used. This French illustration depicts a hot air balloon from 1808.
Japan, on the other hand, was still a largely closed-off country and not too aware of these developments, especially in small fishing villages. It’s this same closed-off nature that might have made other nations really eager to take a peek inside. So, it might not be far-fetched to assume the utsurobune was just a spy balloon from somewhere like Russia that had crashed into the ocean.
That’s just a theory though, and there are still many mysteries about this incident. For example, stories of similar vessels found in the ocean have been recorded in years before along with other tales of people finding strange women alone in odd places. This year’s Oscar nominee The Tale of The Princess Kaguya is one such fable that was written almost a millennium before.
Unfortunately, with little else to go on, it’s hard to say whether the utsurobune encounter was an international incident, interstellar incident, or just a relatively modern rehashing of an old folktale. Too bad Leonard Nimoy wasn’t alive in 1803. He’s pretty good at figuring this stuff out.

UFOs: Area not immune to sightings
UFOs: Area not immune to sightings
Unidentified objects in the sky have always piqued the interest of mankind, but since the Roswell, New Mexico, incident in 1947, UFO reports have poured in from around the world, including the East Texas area.
In the 1970s and 80s East Texas skies seemed to be abuzz with unknown objects as reports filled the Tyler Morning Telegraph with tales of sightings and even possible abductions during alien encounters.
There were several reported sightings in Tyler during 1973 with a city firefighter and his wife and a former newspaper photographer reporting they had seen strange objects in the sky.
One sighting, reported as happening on Nov. 26, 1976, garnered a lot of attention as hypnotists, physicians and authorities talked to a couple who believed they might have been abducted with several hours unaccounted for by the couple.
David McBurnett and his wife Kathy told the newspaper they were coming back from Dallas when they encountered an object they described as being triangular, grayish in color with bright white light in the center and two red lights on either side.
The McBurnetts could not be located for comment about the story, but could they have actually seen a military jet, such as an F17 stealth fighter?
The F17 was in developmental stages at the time according to government documents, but reportedly took its maiden flight in 1981.
Could the McBurnett sighting and others been spurred by weather balloons in the area?
In 1963 the Columbia Scientific Balloon Facility was moved to Palestine from Boulder, Colorado, and the number of UFO sightings in the area seemed to increase.
Since that time, the facility has launched more than 1,700 balloons for 35 universities, 23 other research agencies and 33 foreign groups.
According to the CSBF website, there has been a dramatic increase in sophistication of experiments and demands for service.
“This can best be shown by comparisons of the growth in payload weight, balloon size and the amount of electronic support provided between 1963 and 1988. The average payload increased from 407 pounds in 1964 to more than 3,000 pounds in 1988,” the website states.
U.S. Air Force Major Jamie Humphries, of North American Aerospace Defense Command, said he does get UFO reports, but many can be explained as low-flying aircraft, weather balloons or some other easily explained object, but some cannot.
“These reports could be from any number of things. Our operations center checks to see if there is any explanation, but sometimes there is just no explanation,” he said.
In July 2004 the Federal Aviation Administration’s phone rang off the wall with reports of an object described as a white, red and green orb streaking across the sky over East Texas.
The newspaper reported the object turned out to be a meteor, but as Tyler police talked about the unidentified object on the radio the evening before, a power outage in Anderson County seemed to be related.
Had a UFO crashed and taken out a power grid?
Anderson County Sheriff Greg Taylor laughed the next day and said the outage turned out to be a snake slithering on top of a major line at substation causing the blackout.
Though reports of UFOs may not always make the news, they are being filed every year around the globe.
Is there life out there and are beings from other galaxies visiting us regularly, or are all of the objects in the sky easily explained?
SHEFFIELD — This is how the story goes: It’s 1966, and 6-year-old Thomas Reed is in his bedroom on his family’s horse farm in the Berkshires when the encounters begin.
Strange lights. Strange figures in the hallway. Suddenly, he’s in the woods near his home looking at a UFO. Then he and his younger brother, Matthew, are inside the craft. He’s shown a projection of a willow tree.
The following year, there is another incident at their home on Boardman Street in Sheffield. More strange lights. The sound of doors slamming. Then the boys are back inside the vessel. The next thing Thomas knows, he’s in his driveway being scooped up by his mother, who has been searching frantically for the boys on horseback.
Two years later, the family is driving on Route 7 when they see strange lights in the sky. Their car stalls, and then Thomas and his brother and mother and grandmother find themselves in a giant room. He is brought to meet two strange, ant-like figures, then placed in some sort of cage. Next thing, he’s back near the car.
Reed has told these stories many times, and it has not always gone well. But recently, his tale had found recognition in an unlikely place. The Great Barrington Historical Society & Museum has formally inducted the UFO story.
What does that mean? “It means that we believe it is true,” said Debbie Oppermann, the director of the society.
“I know we’re going to get a lot of backlash. We’re going to get hammered,” she said. “But we have given it an awful lot of thought, and, based on the evidence we’ve been given, we believe this is a significant and true event.”
The historical society believes it is the first time a “mainstream” historical society or museum in the United States has declared a UFO encounter to be historical fact. But the decision was far from unanimous; of the nine members of the historical society’s board, three were “strongly opposed” to the decision, Oppermann said, but “it passed with consensus.”
The Reed case already has its own display in the International UFO Museum and Research Center in Roswell, N.M.; now, it’s about to get one in Great Barrington, about 2 miles from where the alleged encounters took place.
What most interests the historical society is the 1969 encounter, because dozens of people in the area reported seeing an unidentified flying object around that time, typically described as a disk-shaped craft performing acrobatic maneuvers in the sky. Many of those eyewitnesses called the local radio station, WSBS, which covered the sightings. (The radio station has provided documentation to the historical society, which interviewed one of those eyewitnesses. They have also examined a polygraph test taken by Thomas Reed.)
MATTHEW CAVANAUGH FOR THE BOSTON GLOBE
Director Debbie Oppermann says the Great Barrington Historical Society believes the Reed family story of having been abducted by aliens in 1969 is true, in part because dozens of people reported seeing a UFO at that time.
The Reed abductions are well known in the world of UFO enthusiasts. Thomas Reed this month was a featured speaker at the International UFO Congress in Arizona, the world’s largest UFO convention. And the story has been the subject of television shows and radio programs through the years. But Reed, who now lives in Tennessee, said the recognition from the museum is historic.
“They took a stand and have chosen to recognize something that many people in their position would have stepped away from,” said Reed, who is now 55. “We know what we saw, and it was not local. It was definitely off-world. And it affected my whole family, and there has been a lot of post-traumatic stress.”
The subject of UFOs and alien encounters has always occupied a fringe position in American culture, with many believers labeled as tin-hat conspiracy theorists obsessed with government coverups. But polls show that the number of Americans who believe has been growing. A 2012 study by Kelton Research, a market research company, found that 36 percent of Americans believe aliens have visited the earth.
But “proof” remains elusive for many, including Ted Acworth, a scientist with a doctorate from Stanford who was doing postdoctoral work at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology when he was tapped to be the “science guy” on the History Channel show “UFO Hunters.”
Acworth looked at some of the more famous cases around the world, and he said he was never able to find what he would consider physical evidence of alien encounters.
“I’m convinced that there are things happening that are unexplainable, but is that proof of a UFO?” said Acworth, who lives in Boston and now works on technology startups. “A lot of highly credible people believe in their bones that they saw something. It’s not just fringe wackos. But the nearest habitable planet is many, many light years away, and I don’t think they’d come here just to scare people and fly home again. They’d make themselves known.”
Handout
Thomas Reed says he was 6 when he was first taken by extraterrestrials.
Reed says he is not trying to convert nonbelievers. Their scorn has been a part of his life.
His mother owned a restaurant in town, and there were those who came in only to make her life miserable. He got beat up a lot by the other kids. His grandmother used to hold a pillow so he could punch it to get his frustration out. After the third encounter, his mother boarded up the boys’ bedroom, quickly sold the house, and they moved a few miles up the road to Great Barrington.
All he can do, he says, is follow what his mother always told him: Speak the truth.
“It hasn’t helped us in any way to talk about,” Reed said. “We’re not making any money. This has tarnished our life. This has smeared our family’s name. It can only hurt you when someone Googles your name.
“But when you have something extraordinary like this happen to you, how do you keep a lid on it?”

Latest UFO Crash Incident In Manitoba: Seen By Many and Reported By Different Individuals
Latest UFO Crash Incident In Manitoba: Seen By Many and Reported By Different Individuals
Mysterious lights were seen over Jackhead Reservation in Manitoba, Canada last week. UFOlogists suspect a UFO crash into Lake Winnipeg as military forces allegedly spotted on snowmobiles pulling a massive disc out of the lake. But in response to reports about the UFO crash and recovery, Canadian Forces said it was merely a military training exercise. Seriously?
On Wednesday night, February 18, reports started to make rounds on social media about the lights over Lake Winnipeg. According to the Facebook post by Brent Mancheese, there were reports about the UFO crash on the Jackhead reserve in Manitoba, Canada. Allegedly, vehicles of the Canadian Military were lined up on the north shore. Taking pictures in the scene was strictly prohibited, and the army even issued a threat to anybody who tried to do so. Lots of eyewitnesses were in the area. These witnesses apparently saw a round object being hauled across the lake and pulled out by snowmobiles and bombardier. Eight fishermen reported the incident, but Mancheese wonders why the authorities did not let the media know if it was a plane crash.
In another report, bad thing happened to one witness with a camera. It said that a disc shaped craft was spotted diving into the frozen lake. At least one witness managed to get a photo of the craft. Unfortunately, that person has since been detained by the Canadian military.
According to Lt.-Col. Paul Davies, the Canadian army was taking part in Exercise Arctic Bison 2015, a program that trains military personnel to handle emergencies in harsh environments. Was UFO crash emergency included in the training? Davies said not so.
Government vehicles arriving at site of crash
Davies, the commanding officer of 38 Territorial Battalion Group, explained that there were no aliens or a UFO and just his friends in the Air Force helping them on this exercise.
So, what about those UFO reports? Davies said that it was a craft with quick takeoff capabilities. He explained that it may have appeared like it was going straight up in the air from a distance, but in reality it wasn’t.
Seeing an airplane taking off from a frozen lake is quite unusual. So, what about the crash reports? What about the large disc-shaped object? What about the evidence in the photograph? What about the eyewitnesses?
What actually transpired at Lake Winnipeg last week?
We, Team Tumbleweed, have waited with the presentation of this video to be released after the UFO conference where George Knapp and Bob Lazar told about the mysteries of Area 51.
In this video we will show you the UFO Bob Lazar filmed in full detail.
Latest image enhancement techniques have been used to make the UFO completely visible.
Team Tumbleweed: “For those who have criticized Bob Lazar, Gene Huff, John Lear and George Knapp, we can only say this to you: Wake up.”
”You have been wrong with your criticism and discrediting these 4 people. It is time to admit it.”
Team Tumbleweed: “We are supported by Robert “Bob” Lazar and journalist George Knapp. John Lear also is aware of our plans. See the article: UFOs exist and are as real as Area 51.
Onvermoeibaar bestudeert ufoloog Scott C. Waring NASA foto’s van Mars.
Met de regelmaat van de klok komt hij dan ook met spectaculaire ontdekkingen.
Waring zegt over zichzelf dat hij iemand is die doorgaat daar waar anderen ophouden.
Als voorbeeld geeft hij de hobby die hij had toen hij studeerde in de Amerikaanse staat Idaho: zoeken naar pijlpunten van indianen van 700 jaar oud.
Zijn vrienden op de universiteit verklaarden hem voor gek en zeiden dat hij zijn tijd verspilde. Door logisch denken echter en het verbinden van een aantal schakels slaagde hij er toch in om een vijftal van deze pijlpunten op te sporen, die nu in een museum liggen.
Dezelfde volhardendheid gebruikt hij nu bij het bestuderen van NASA foto’s en het vinden van sporen.
Dat levert nogal eens interessante resultaten op, zoals de volgende.
Op één van de NASA foto’s zie je iets wat je niet anders kunt omschrijven dan als de kop van een soort dinosaurus.
Je ziet duidelijk op de foto’s de kaken en daartussen wat sterk lijkt op de tanden van het dier.
Na nog wat meer speurwerk vond hij op een andere opname iets wat lijkt op een paardenkop.
Hebben we hier te maken met een paard dat ooit op Mars heeft geleefd, of misschien een soort draak?
Duidelijk is dat er op de NASA foto’s van Mars veel voorwerpen voorkomen die niet door de natuur zijn gevormd en aantonen dat er leven was en mogelijk nog steeds is.
Scott zegt: Wat niet veel mensen weten is dat NASA 50 jaar geleden is opgericht met als doel de waarheid voor de mensen verborgen te houden. Een werkelijkheid echter, die in stukjes en beetjes steeds verder boven water komt.

Hoelang tot de killshot werkelijk wordt? ( Video )
Wij aardbewoners zijn de afgelopen dagen wederom aan een enorme ramp ontsnapt.
Wanneer de laatste zonneuitbarsting een iets andere richting had gehad dan was er nu in ieder geval geen internet meer. Waarbij dat misschien dan wel ons minste probleem zou zijn.
Het is een vreemde zaak met de zon. De zonnevlekactiviteit is relatief laag en toch hebben we een zonnevlamuitbarsting achter de rug die je niet graag dagelijks wilt meemaken.
Op zaterdag 21 februari 2015 zagen we zo'n uitbarsting.
Gelukkig vond deze uitbarsting plaats aan de achterkant van de zon, waardoor de aarde de resultaten van deze Killshot bespaard bleef.
Hij was zo krachtig dat wanneer de richting iets anders was geweest en onze kant was uitgegaan, wij nu waarschijnlijk bijvoorbeeld geen internet meer zouden hebben.
De naam Killshot is afkomstig van de remote vieuwer Ed Dames en betekent het volgende: Met de Killshot wordt bedoeld een zodanig krachtige zonnevlam, gericht naar de aarde, dat hierdoor grote delen of het gehele elektriciteitsnet zal uitvallen.
We hebben de laatste jaren enkele keren geluk gehad dat zeer krachtige zonneuitbarstingen niet rechtstreeks gericht waren naar de aarde.
De meest bekende gebeurtenis in deze categorie is het zogenaamde Carrington Event in 1859. Afgezien van de telegraaf waren er in die tijd weinig elektrische componenten om echt problemen te kunnen veroorzaken.
Als we vandaag de dag echter een dergelijk Carrington Event zouden meemaken dan zou dit een complete en totale nachtmerrie zijn. Een onderzoek door Lloyd’s of London heeft uitgewezen dat schade van 2.600.000.000.000 Dollar zou ontstaan aan de economie en dat er minsten tien jaar voor nodig zou zijn om van de gevolgen te herstellen.
Wetenschappers houden vol dat er weer een moment zal komen waarop we geraakt zullen worden door een dergelijke vlam van de zon. De enige vraag is wanneer.
Gisteren schreef iemand op een forum: Ga naar buiten, zet een glimlach op je gezicht en dank God op je blote knieën dat we niet terug geworpen zijn naar het stenen tijdperk.

The Isla De Lobos Case in Uruguay
The Isla De Lobos Case in Uruguay
Date: October 28, 1972 Location: Isla de Lobos, Uruguay
This is a single witness sighting, and yet it has become the best case coming from Uruguay due to the in-depth investigation done by the members of C.I.O.V.I. research group. The witness, Corporal Juan Fuentes saw a landed craft with three occupants at close range for time of about one minute. He attempted to shoot at the occupants but was stopped from doing so. The occupants entered the craft, and the craft rose up and flew away at high speed.
Illustration of the the craft and occupants as seen by the witness, Corporal Fuentes.
Classification & Features
Type of Case/Report: StandardCase Hynek Classification: CE3 # of Witnesses: Single Special Features/Characteristics: Humanoid/Occupant, Landing, Military
Isla de Lobos is a small island a few miles off the Uruguayan coast, just where the River Plate meets the Atlantic Ocean. Its name means literally “island of the fur seals”, as these animals roam freely, and it is a lonely place where the only outstanding feature is the lighthouse.
The maintenance of this lighthouse is the responsibility of the Navy, and for that purpose a small garrison of 4 or 5 men is kept on the island. Their main task is to attend to the electric generators, as the actual operation of the beam is automatic. It is a routine and non-stressing job, and the tours of duty are 15 days in and 15 days out.
On the night of October 28, 1972, there were five men at the house which serves as headquarters for the Navy personnel: the witness, Corporal Juan Fuentes Figueroa; two enlisted men, Jose Gomez and Hector Gimenez; a telegraph operator, Jose Lima; and the sub-officer in charge, Francisco Cascudo. After dinner, the men sat around the table for a while, talking and playing cards, until at 10:10 PM it was time for Corporal Fuentes to inspect the generators, which are located at the base of the lighthouse proper.
The lighthouse is a 66-meter-high tower sitting at the center of a large building which contains the electric generators, the telegraph office and other dependencies. The top of this building is a flat terrace, which is about 6 meters above the adjacent terrain (Fig.1). The house where the garrison lives is at a distance of 45 meters from the lighthouse.
As soon as Cpt. Fuentes started to walk toward the lighthouse, he noticed on top of the terrace some lights that shouldn’t be there. In fact, he thought first of a car, a complete impossibility, and his reaction was to return to the house and procure a pistol that he had in his room. To do this, he didn’t have to pass through the kitchen where the other men were, so he didn’t speak to them. As will be discussed later, this behavior is typical of the personality of the witness.
Carrying the pistol, he went outside again and started walking decisively but not fast toward the lighthouse, meanwhile removing the safety from the gun and cocking it. As he advanced, he noted that the object had several lights: some white, some yellowish, and a third color that he describes as violet, as in the “rainbow”. Those lights were sufficient to allow him a good view, and he saw that a figure was next to the object and that a second was in the process of descending. A third and taller figure started to descend almost at once, but at the same moment, the initial two figures noticed Fuentes progressing toward them. They had what appeared to Fuentes as a moment of communication, and all three of them faced him.
By that time, Fuentes was at about 27 meters from the object, which, we will recall, was on the top of a 6-meter terrace. Hence, the object was above him, and he started to raise his extended arm to shoot. He was never to complete his motion, as the entities prevented him, from doing so. Fuente, a man of limited education, tried in vain to explain to the investigators how this was accomplished. It was not telepathy, and he felt some physical effects, like a “vibration” and his hair standing on end; but more than anything else it was like a premonition, in his words like: “Don’t shoot because it is useless”. At any rate, he felt paralyzed and confused, and was unable to shoot.
The action continued rather fast: the entities reentered their craft, the tallest one first. Although Fuentes did not see steps or a handrail, he could see quite well the motion of the figures against the lights of the object, outlined by the light coming out through the open door. He is certain that there were steps, as while the entities were climbing up with their backs toward the witness, their motions were like those of a person pulling himself up with handrails.
The door closed sideways, and the craft started to move straight up, emitting a humming sound until it reached about 45 meters, as judged by the adjacent lighthouse tower. It then tilted, belched a blinding fireball from the bottom, and disappeared in silence at a tremendous speed toward the southeast.
The witness returned to the house, where the other men noticed him white as a paper and still with a gun in hand. When he said that he had seen a flying saucer, he was not believed, except perhaps by Sub-Officer Cascudo.
Corporal Fuentes was rather upset that his equals and his immediate superiors were dubious of his story, and was planning when he returned to Montevideo to go to one of the leading newspapers and make his experience public. However, before this was accomplished, he was ordered to report to a higher ranking officer, who carefully listened to what Fuentes had to say. He then disappeared into an office in which two members of the personnel of the American Embassy had been waiting.
According to Fuentes, they were officers of the “Spatial Affair Service”, (sic) and their presence in the Command Offices was not unusual. Fuentes was left waiting in the corridor, and after a while someone came out and offered him some drawings for inspection and asked him to select the one closest to what hi has seen. He did so and was dismissed. He never talked directly to the Americans, but from the conversation overheard through the door, he concluded that they were surprised at the short distance of Fuente’s observation. And I am amazed at the continuous interest shown by American Embassies in collecting information about a phenomenon that we have been told many times does not exist...
While the whole incident lasted about one minute, Corporal Fuentes had the object in direct view for more than about 15 seconds. It was well illuminated by its own lights, and it was fortuitous that the external lights usually illuminating the exterior of the installations were not in operation that night. If the floodlights had been on, they would have prevented a clear view by the witness, even blinding him at the location of the observation. As things turned out, he observed the entities in the background light of their own craft, and even if this prevented him from seeing facial details, for example, their outline and motions were quite evident.
When Corporal Fuentes started to walk toward the lighthouse, the first entity was already on the terrace, while the second was alighting from the craft. These two entities were about 1.50 m. (5 ft), while the third one, the last to descend, was 1.75-1.80 m. (6 ft). Thus, their heights were within the normal human limits (Fig. 2). Their silhouettes were dark, as if they were wearing heavy black rubber suits. The witness attributed their slow and deliberate motions to the weight of their suits, and thinks that his presence surprised the strangers at the beginning of an operation never to be completed. Their descent from the craft was done backwards, as if using a ladder not seen by the witness. Likewise, when they climbed back into the object, their motions were those of a person pulling himself up using handrails.
The most distinctive feature of the entities, clearly noticeable in the profile view that they offered to the witness, was the elongated shape of the back o their heads. It is not clear if this corresponds to the heads themselves, or it is was the result of some type of hood or garment.
The craft itself had the shape of an inverted bowl, with a diameter of between 4 and 5 meters. It had a dome on top and a rectangular aperture or door, used by the entities to descend (Fig. 3). It also had legs, which the witness saw clearly during the first stage of the departure. as the craft was slowly gaining altitude. Those legs did not fold like the landing gear of a plane, but retracted telescopically.
The surface of the craft was undoubtedly metallic, with a somewhat reddish color that Fuentes compared to mahogany. The most distinctive feature of the object was the antenna that topped it, shaped like a corkscrew and rotating.
The lights have already been described, and it only is necessary to add that they seemed to Fuentes like “little squares”, moving and flashing like “an advertising sign”.
This is a single witness sighting, and yet it has become the best case coming from Uruguay due to the in-depth investigation done by the members of C.I.O.V.I.. This paper is based on the information contained in their report on this case. (Ref.1).
The first stage of the investigation consisted of two lengthy interviews with the witness in his own home. The two interviews were recorded, and the transcripts do not reveal any discrepancies in the narrative.
This was followed by an “in situ” reconstruction of the events. with the participation of the witness. Sub-officer Cascudo, present on the island that night, verified that the initial version by Corporal Fuentes was similar to the subsequent descriptions relayed later to the investigating team. Sub-officer Cascudo, as well as other superiors of Corporal Fuentes, described him as a “simple and honest man, incapable of inventing a story of this nature”.
But indeed the most fascinating part of the CIOVI investigation was to request the assistance of a professional and to submit the witness to a battery of psychological tests that extended over a total of 9 hours, and that included, among others, Raven, Bender, Rorschach and PMK.
The result of those various tests dwell on positive and negative aspects of the personality of the witness, but when analyzed in the light of the narrative presented by Corporal Fuentes, they complement each other and tend to lend credibility to the story.
In what follows, the key elements of the psychological evaluation will be indicated with quotation marks, interspace with comments on how they relate to the particular facets of the case.
First of all, the witness is described as “sincere, uncomplicated and simple”. He expresses what for him is the truth, and he does that in a straighrforward manner, with no cultural burden distiring what he has to say.
The witness “has no tendency to fabrication or fantasy”, which if existing would damage his credibility. Moreover, he has “less that average intellectual capacity”, to which the psychologist adds that he “lacks an average imagination” and “has a remarkably poor knowledge of what is going on in the social environment”. All of these are pluses from the viewpoint of the credibility of the witness, and negate the possibility of him having created the whole story. And in fact, the investigators were able to determine that the ufological knowledge of the witness was practically non-existent.
From the emotional viewpoint, the witness is typified as “insecure, prompt to react anxiously and even aggressively” to an unexpected situation. That is exactly what the witness did when confronted with the impossible presence of a car on the terrace: his first reaction was to arm himself, although he could not explain later to the investigators what he intended to do with the gun. But he was following his training, and thus bolstered his confidence.
Another result of the psychological tests is that the witness has “a balanced psychic personality”, and it is “unlikely that he would confabulate by himself, unless an external event would upset him”. To summarize, his poor intellectual capacity and lack of imagination did not allow him to reason what was best to do when confronted with the unexpected, and instead of firing his gun or alerting his companions, he failed to do either, remaining paralyzed and confused. When he returned to the house, the other men noticed his trembling voice and his pale color, so there is no question that an external stimulus affected him deeply.
The conclusion, then, is that the psychology and personality of the witness are such that his reactions and behavior under the circumstances are totally compatible. Therefore, the probability that the witness is telling the truth is very great.
Of course, there is always an uncertainty about what percentage of the description of the witness corresponds to the physical reality of the object and the entities, but we can assert that in fact that Isla de Lobos is a remote place, moreover, a restricted area with difficult access, controlled by the Uruguayan Navy, and where no conventional explanations are viable, the inescapable conclusion is that this case is, using Dr. Maccabee’s coined word, a TRUFO.
Dr. Smith earned his Ph.D. from the University of Michigan, and after many years dedicated to teaching physics at universities in the United State and Europe, he now devotes most of his time to the study of the UFO phenomenon, whose reality he considers indisputable.

Bob White Alien Artifact
White Alien Artifact
Date: , 1985 Location: Near Grand Junction, Colorado, United States
White and a friend were driving from Denver to Las Vegas, when they witnessed an object that was about 100 yards in front of him, he said, "and it was huge ... absolutely huge." As the craft flew away, White said, he noticed an orange light falling to the ground. He recovered the object, which is about 7-1/2 inches long and shaped like a teardrop.

'Man finds tough sell for his "UFO discovery"'
06/22/04
By Steve Rock Knight Ridder Newspapers
REEDS SPRING, Mo. — Bob White is convinced his story deserves a grand stage, that his most prized possession should be displayed before a national audience.
It should draw tourists from all over the country, he figures, and be a major attraction for people who want to see an artifact that White swears was retrieved from a UFO in 1985.
Instead, White's find is in tiny Reeds Spring in southwestern Missouri, secured in a locked display case at Museum of the Unexplained, a converted video-rental store that, during a recent morning, went more than three hours without a customer.
White can't figure it out.
All he wants to do is find some believers. He wants people to quit snickering and looking at him as if he's crazy. He wants them to listen to his story, to take a hard look at his metallic artifact, to give him a chance.
"This," White said, "is the most difficult thing I've ever done in my life."
The odds are stacked against him. He and his partner at the museum, Robert Gibbons, have been rejected and ridiculed. White estimates he has spent more than $60,000 traveling to conferences, starting the museum, having the artifact tested and retested.
And yet he forges on.
"I'm 73 years old," White said. "I don't have much longer.
"What I'd like to see before I'm gone is the national media get their heads out of their ... " White paused, choosing his words carefully, "out of the sand. I'd like to see the national media and everybody else realize that what I have is real."
Scientists theorize that the "UFO" lights that White said he encountered could have been nothing more than a meteorite, that his artifact could be space debris. Some scientists who have tested the object said there was nothing extraterrestrial about it.
Ask White whether he believed in unidentified flying objects prior to 1985, and he scrunches up his nose.
"Never," he said. "Not a bit. I was the biggest skeptic in the world."
That all changed overnight. Here's how he remembers it:
White and a friend were driving from Denver to Las Vegas on a desolate highway near the Colorado-Utah border. It was 2 or 3 a.m., he said, and White was sleeping in the passenger seat. At one point, his friend woke him up and pointed out a strange light in the distance. White didn't think much of it and went back to sleep.
Then his friend woke him up again. This time, White said, the lights were blinding.
He got out of the car and stared, dumbfounded. The object was about 100 yards in front of him, he said, "and it was huge ... absolutely huge."
In time, he said, the lights bolted toward the sky and connected with a pair of neon, tubular lights — "the mother ship," White guesses now. And just like that, he said, the entire contraption zipped eastward through the Colorado sky and disappeared.
"What I saw," White said, "was not of this Earth."
As the craft flew away, White said, he noticed an orange light falling to the ground. A locator probe? Something that simply broke off? It was red hot when he reached it, he said, but in time it cooled enough to pick up. White shoved the object into the trunk of the car.
The object is about 7-1/2 inches long and shaped like a teardrop. It has a coarse, metallic exterior and weighs less than 2 pounds. It looks a bit like it could be a petrified pine cone and is composed primarily of aluminum.
White has had the item tested several times, hoping for some answers.
The Nevada-based National Institute for Discovery Science in 1996 sent a sample of the object to the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology.
"The metallurgical analysis was pretty mundane," said Colm Kelleher, a scientist at the National Institute for Discovery Science.
"We didn't find any evidence that it was extraterrestrial. Now you can make the argument that we didn't spend $1 million and look at every conceivable option. We didn't cover every base."
Another scientist who tested it at a California laboratory — and who asked that his name and that of the laboratory not be used — said, "It didn't show any extraterrestrial signature."
Sgt. Gary Carpenter, who works at the North American Aerospace Defense Command in Colorado Springs, Colo., said it was not uncommon for NORAD to get calls about strange lights and unidentified objects. Not once, he said, has the object been identified as an alien spacecraft.
"Usually it turns out to be space debris from a satellite that's decaying, or it's in the realm of naturally occurring, celestial lights," he said. "It could be something like a falling star. It could be contrails, the things you would see trailing an aircraft."
White opened the Museum of the Unexplained with visions of turning it into a destination. He wasn't looking to get rich — according to the Missouri secretary of state's office, the museum was registered as a nonprofit organization in August 2000 — but he hoped to spread the word about his experience.
The museum, about 13 miles north of the glitzy Branson strip, might as well be in another world. There are no neon signs pointing the way, no twinkling lights outside the front door. Rather, it's sandwiched between the Humane Society thrift shop and the Sunrise Cafe on Main Street.
It has struggled, unable to tap into the Branson spinoff crowd and secure a niche audience of its own. Only 2,800 people went through the doors that first year, when admission was free, and the museum hasn't been able to replicate those numbers since.
These days, patrons age 12 and older pay $5 to stroll through about 2,000 square feet of space. Exhibits include a keyboard from the movie "Men in Black II" in which the shift key doesn't capitalize or decapitalize but translates from English to an alien language. Other exhibits are little more than newspaper articles or passages from the Internet affixed to the wall with thumb tacks.
The focal point is White's artifact, and he takes no chances with its safety. Motion detectors, closed-circuit TV and window and door alarms protect it at all times. White packs it up in a gun case every day at 5 p.m., and the object never spends the night at the same place two nights in a row. You can never be too sure, he figures, even in a town with just 465 residents.
"I'm happy for them that they're having a good time, but I guess I'm just not into that kind of thing," said Kacee Cashman, the Reeds Spring city clerk since 1998. "I really think they've been accepted, but everybody's kind of taking it with a grain of salt."
Said White, "I don't know what I have to do to prove this is the truth. You can't make this stuff up."

UFO Crash-Lands In Canada: Government Cover-Up As We Speak
UFO Crash-Lands In Canada: Government Cover-Up As We Speak
A flying saucer has allegedly crash-landed through the ice of Lake Winnipeg, in Manitoba, about 72 hours ago. The Canadian government is covering everything up.
The military is involved in the recovery of the alleged UFO and witnesses have been detained.
A complete blackout has been ordered by the government and some of the courageous people have been posting pictures and info online, but with their names blurred. Phone lines are also down.
In Manitboa, Canada on the Jackhead Reservation reports have been surfacing of a UFO crash landing into Lake Winnipeg.
Recently a call came into Thrid Phase of the Moon reporting this. The man went by the name of Mark. Here is part of the dialogue:
“Apparently a disc shaped craft was seen crashing through the ice on the lake, at least one person got photographic evidence but has since been detained by the Canadian military. UFO crash in rural Manitoba Canada: A UFO crash landed into a frozen lake within the last 24 hours on a Indian reservation in rural Manitoba. I have contact with a former resident of the reservation and their family still lives on the reservation and informed them about the situation this evening.
I have also been informed that nobody is allowed to leave or enter the reservation at this time and that the military has been going door to door talking with residents. They are telling the residents that they are conducting emergency trainingexercises, but there has been an extreme cold front in Manitoba over the last 2 days and it is extremely dangerous to spend time outdoors for any period.
The military has moved in all their equipment effectively blocking any view of what may have crashed into the water or what they are doing there, but I’m sure they are recovering the evidence.
I will get back in touch with in a few hours, I was told the name of the reservation but it was very long and hard to pronounce, I will get the exact spelling of the reservation in a few hours when I meet with my contact and I will forward any new information over.” Mark
Here is the full video dialogue between Third Phase and Mark (the aircraft in the video is not the aircraft they are talking about, it’s just pictured during conversation):
“UFO crash reported on the Jackhead reserve in Manitoba, Canada apparently the Canadian Military have vehicles lined up on north Shore… they are threatening anybody who tries to take pics… lots of eye witnesses… Thur is round object being hauled across the lake being pulled by snowmobiles and bombardier.”
Furthermore many on Twitter and Facebook were posting pictures like these:
Trucks and police vehicles arriving at site of crash. Image source.
Evacuating the around the alleged UFO crash site - Image source
The alleged Lake Winnipeg crash site - image source
Despite the outcry from citizens in the area about the crashed UFO and reports of military forces using snowmobiles to drag away a large disc, the Canadian Forces are claiming this is all just one big military training exercise training search and rescue how to deal with a plan crash in the Arctic.
According to Lt.-Col. Paul Davies, commanding officer of 38 Territorial Battalion Group in Canada, who was reportedly involved in the Arctic Response Company Group training exercise on Lake Winnipeg, stated this to CBC News:
“There’s no aliens, just my friends in the air force who areout there helping us on this exercise…I have the commander of that air force contingent sitting right beside me and, you know, he assures us that that was not a UFO, but that was him.”
The trouble with this statement is the Canadian Forces are refusing to show the supposed “Military craft” to the public. If this is a training exercise why not display the craft to stop the talk about it being a UFO?
Third Phase of the Moon is also reporting that they have an image of this craft sent in by viewers, however no photographs have surfaced as of yet. Here is that breaking report:

Fox Likely To Re-Visit The X-Files
Fox Likely To Re-Visit The X-Files
The possibility of Fox rebooting The X-Files may have been ignored a few years ago. But in today’s scenario and if Fox executives are all game, then the possibility is believable.
Few days ago, Fox declared that they were in the logistical point of rebooting the series. In this connection, they were checking if they could bring back all original players. Without Mulder and Scully, Fox said they’re not doing The X-Files.
But the big drive for the revival of The X-Files did not come from Fox or its creator Chris Carter. Gillian “Scully” Anderson did the big push. Earlier in February 2015, Anderson said that she would be more than happy to make more episodes of the show that contributed much to her career. Anderson is currently part of The Fall. Hosts Chris Hardwick and Matt Mira as well as Anderson encouraged listeners on The Nerdist podcast to tweet the #XFiles2015, and they’ve got an overwhelming response.
The Internet once again wielded its power by bringing the sentiment of people to bring back the 20-year-old television series from the dead. In 2014, leaked test footage from a proposed Deadpool movie circulated on the internet and many believe that it was a ploy on behalf of the creator of the film to generate online buzz necessary for bringing the project back to life. Those responsible for the trick have succeeded due to overwhelming support online. The film will debut in 2016, starring Ryan Reynolds.
With the internet’s very strong support and both Anderson and Duchovny on board, the only stumbling block to bringing back X-Files is Chris Cater. Though Fox says that Carter has interest, it also confirms that he “has a lot going on.” Fox notes that it will not go on without Carter. But there’s a little chance that Carter would turn down the overwhelming enthusiasm from cast members and fans.
Your UFO reports: 14th February – 21st February 2015
Did you see a UFO? Report it using this form or send us e-mail to report@latest-ufo-sightings.net !
Solon, OH around 41°25’18.6″N 81°28’46.5″W – February 22, 2015 I was driving down U.S 422 and a double green light in the sky caught my eye. I was on the phone with my fiance, so I told him to hold on while I totally took my eyes off the road and significantly slowed down to look at this light in the sky. It was weird to me because I’ve never seen anything green like this in the sky, it was like two round lights touching eachother–pretty much overlapping a little bit. It was moving to the left in the sky as a plane would, but then it started moving right. Now my eyes stayed glued to these lights because I could not believe or even identify what I was seeing. When it moved to the right it was a faster rate than what a plane would fly, then it just stopped and stayed in one area not moving at all. It could not have been a helicopter because it looked too high and too small. There was nothing to it other than just these lights. I then drove out of the sight of it and could not see it anymore. I could not get a picture or video because I was on the phone and driving. I have been speechless since and immediately came home and started researching.
Highgate hill, Brisbane – 25-7-2014 I captured a video the other day and I would like to know what you guys think of it. There is an unidentified flying object flying over an airplane. It could be a meteor or something but I would appreciate it if you could review it.
Akron, Ohio – 15 Feb 2015 hi, i wanted to share a video with you, i got this last night, i see them every night when our skies are clear, in akron, ohio, i have more videos on my you tube channel. Youtube video link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t0Dw3SYKElk
Phoenix, Arizona – 13 Feb 2015 I am a long haul truck driver. This past Friday afternoon I was traveling east on I-10 about 70 miles west of Phoenix Arizona. I saw a white football shaped object traveling southeast at a very high rate of speed at what I figured to be 1000 feet in altitude. About 3 seconds later 2 fighter jets were traveling the same direction at a high rate of speed. When I got to Buckeye Arizona I saw 6 Blackhawk helicopters flying west southwest. Has anyone else reported seeing this or am I going crazy?
Hello Sir. I was directed to you by a forum contributor who reads your website. I work as a night security officer at a warehouse in Plainfield, Indiana. The building is located about a mile west of the Indianapolis International Airport on Reeves Rd.
At the time of the incident I was working with another security officer. Over the past year or so I and others have noticed many strange lights in the sky at night. Actually some of of these lights were distinctive V-shaped, but most were circular. On the night of February 1st (around 10:30 pm) there was an array of bright red lights traveling over the airport heading west over Plainfield. I tried to get photos but the light pollution from the airport and business park were too heavy. I counted 34 red lights traveling back to back and moving very slow but in a straight line. The other security officer witnessed the same lights. I reported what I saw to a friend in Cincinnati who in interested in UFOs. He said that he would file a report with a UFO group. This was the next day (February 2nd). He told me that he received a similar report from another witness in Indianapolis.
On February 8th early Sunday morning (1:15 am or so) the security guard at the gate called me on his radio. He said that someone wanted to talk to me. This was very unusual because people rarely drive up to the gate that late and no one has ever asked for me. I was in the back lot so it took me a while to reach the front, even by vehicle. While making my way to the gatehouse, the security guard called me again. He sounded frantic and asked me to hurry. When I reached the gatehouse, there was a black Chevrolet Impala parked at the gate and two people standing by the gatehouse door. I parked my truck and walked over to the gatehouse. The first thing I noticed was how tall these individuals were and that they were dressed the same. They both wore black attire, which were slacks, heavy bomber jackets and leather gloves. They also had beret-like hats with sunglasses, even though it was dark. There was no insignia or lettering on the vehicle, though it had Ohio license plates. One of the men asked me if I had witnessed anything unusual in the sky above the airport. I mentioned what we had seen on February 1st and that there had been a lot of different lights seen the past year or so. He said he wasn’t interested in the other sightings, just what was seen over the airport. Then he wanted to know if I told anyone else.
By that time I was a bit perturbed and asked who they were. They both smiled, then the guy apologized for taking up my time. They got back into their car and backed out. That kind of freaked me out because I have no idea who these guys were. I have heard some stories about Men in Black from my friend, but these guys looked normal, other than the weird garb. A few nights ago, I swear I saw the same vehicle in my neighborhood in Indianapolis. It was parked down the street from my house then pulled off as I passed it on my way to work. At this point I don’t know what to think. I’m not scared but curious as to what they think I witnessed. Incidentally, the other security guard who witnessed the lights did not receive a visit from these guys. My report must have sparked something, though I don’t think my friend used my name or specific location. I wonder if these were MIB and why they showed so much interest in my sighting. Thanks for reading my email. BB

“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
Iam 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
Author, New York Times bestseller, 'UFOs: Generals, Pilots and Government Officials Go On the Record'
Co-authored with Ralph Blumenthal
It was the tweet heard round the worlds. On John Podesta's last day at the White House on February 13th, the longtime Presidential counselor, who is likely to chair a 2016 Hillary Clinton campaign, dashed off a confession that lit the blogosphere with thousands of retweets and comments: "Finally, my biggest failure of 2014: Once again not securing the #disclosure of the UFO files."
Along with the media, which couldn't resist a spoof by late-night comedian Jimmy Fallon, conspiracy theorists are having a field day. Taking Podesta's barb as confirmation of fantastic coverups by operatives with knowledge of extraterrestrials and twisted political agendas, they imagine Podesta himself holds devastating secrets. Some are claiming with bravado that their own activism is what prompted his recent lighthearted remark.
The facts hardly bear that out.
Actually, as surprising as the tweet was, Podesta's position on the controversial issue was not exactly news. A staunch proponent of open government, he has previously called for the release of any government files on unidentified flying objects, or more broadly, unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), that merit such action under existing law. As Chief of Staff for President Bill Clinton, Podesta pressed for Executive Order 12958 which declassified broad categories of information formerly withheld on the grounds of national security.
In 2002, Podesta began publicly supporting what became a landmark Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit filed by the Coalition for Freedom of Information, an independent advocacy group. NASA had been stonewalling and refusing to release its records concerning a significant 1965 UFO incident in Kecksburg, PA. Many witnesses described seeing a fireball in the evening sky, followed by a controlled landing and the systematic military recovery of a spacecraft-like object, rushed away on the back of a flatbed truck. As reported by local radio and newspapers, U.S. military personnel cordoned off the area, investigated the site, and left without ever providing a full report of the incident other than to dismiss it as a meteor.

During the lawsuit's final hearing in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia in 2007, the exasperated Presiding Judge, Emmet G. Sullivan, declared that "heads should roll" at NASA and that NASA's case was a "ball of yarn." He approved a settlement that required NASA to comb through hundreds of documents in specified locations, and provide them to journalist and plaintiff Leslie Kean, under the watchful eye of the court.
Success at forcing an agency to do this kind of extensive historical search under FOIA without Congressional intervention was unprecedented. Podesta called the victory "a triumph for open government and the spirit of inquiry."

But - there was one problem. The resulting documents did not include one iota of information relating to the Kecksburg case, despite an earnest and thorough effort by NASA staff. Three hundred boxes were searched, on top of the hundreds of pages released during the court proceedings prior to the settlement. Yet they revealed nothing about the case at hand.
Could these be the "UFO files" that Podesta was alluding to in his tweet? Might there be others as well, stored in locations inaccessible to the FOIA in violation of the law?
Podesta has been a brave voice for sanity and objectivity on a subject that is generally considered unworthy of serious discussion. In a foreword for Kean's 2010 book, UFOs: Generals, Pilots and Government Officials Go On the Record, Podesta wrote: "The time to pull the curtain back on this subject is long overdue." Describing himself as "a curious skeptic" who understands the difference between fact and fiction, he said the American people "want to know, and they can handle the truth."
Official investigations around the world have consistently found that a small but significant percentage of sightings defy conventional explanation, most of them involving police officers, military personnel, pilots and air traffic controllers. Physical evidence such as radar returns, measurable effects on the environment, or scientifically analyzed photographs accompany the best cases.
In 2011, Podesta hosted a private meeting of government officials, scientists, and military and intelligence experts, organized by Kean and her coalition, at his liberal think tank, the Center for American Progress. A panel presented expert briefings backing the establishment of a modest official project to evaluate UAP in cooperation with other countries.
"The official position of the U.S., which has denied the existence of any abnormal aerial phenomena since 1969, is a weighty handicap and has a negative influence on the attitude of many governments," wrote Yves Sillard, former Director General of the French National Space Center, in his briefing paper. "If this position could be modified, the U.S. would probably play a leading role in this necessary international effort."
Ricardo Bermúdez, a retired Air Force general who directs the Chilean investigative effort, agrees. "United States participation would be beneficial for all countries," he stated.
A U.S. agency is long overdue. The Air Force's official investigation, Project Blue Book, was terminated in 1970 after two decades, since no sightings were determined to pose a national security threat. Yet over 700 cases remained unexplained. Since then, no branch of the government has investigated UAP.
This lack of both transparency and responsive action to alarming UFO incidents undermines public trust. Some unidentified objects may be attributable to foreign military aircraft or drones, and should be of general defense interest. Other phenomena display such unusual characteristics that they are of broader scientific interest. Under certain circumstances, UAP can even raise air safety concerns. Still, the FAA discourages pilots from reporting any such incidents, in stark contrast to policy in Europe and South America.
Official agencies in France and Chile, along with other South American countries, conduct rigorous, open UAP investigations. In 2014, the heads of these offices met in Paris for the first time, to begin a cooperative venture. The U.K. spent decades collecting data, but closed down its office in 2008 due to the overwhelming stream of Freedom of Information requests besieging the staff. Interest was so great that the Ministry of Defense decided to simply release all its documents online.

Yet here at home, a 2012 poll showed that nearly 80% of Americans believe the government has concealed information about UFOs. As a result, frustrated citizens turn to fringe conspiracists seeking some way of understanding our irrational denial of this very real phenomenon.
When UFO events occur here, civilian groups do the best they can in battling the obstacles to investigating them. At Chicago's O'Hare International Airport on Nov. 7, 2006, a metallic disc was observed hovering over the United Airlines terminal for at least five minutes, before shooting straight up in the sky, at great speed, cutting a hole in the cloud bank. This was not a flying machine known to any of the aviation experts who witnessed or later analyzed the event.
On March 13, 1997, hundreds if not thousands of citizens, including the governor at the time, saw massive delta-shaped objects gliding silently over Arizona. Like the Kecksburg case, this event has never been explained despite a class action lawsuit filed in 2000 by witnesses in Phoenix. A court-ordered search for information was issued to the Department of Defense, but once again, no pertinent records were obtained.
Nonetheless, much more data on UFOs has been accumulated than ever before, and files have been released around the world. The phenomenon's physical reality is now firmly established. But its nature and origin remain a problem. Meanwhile, astronomers have reported that there could be as many as 40 billion habitable Earth-size planets in our galaxy; one out of every five sunlike stars has a planet the size of Earth orbiting it in the Goldilocks zone.
We need to join the other countries taking responsible action in addressing this persistent mystery, preferably at the White House level where The Office of Science and Technology Policy is well positioned to take on this task. John Podesta supports the effort to appoint a government staffer for this purpose - and that is no surprise.

Daily 2 Cents: Blue Light Over Houston Airport -- Russian Meteor's Origin Remains Mystery -- Hawking: Space Travel Could Save Mankind
Daily 2 Cents: Blue Light Over Houston Airport -- Russian Meteor's Origin Remains Mystery -- Hawking: Space Travel Could Save Mankind
Blue Light Over Houston Airport
Houston, TX - 10/9/2014: While walking from my apartment to parking lot, on clear night I looked south toward the airport I'm retired but still love aircraft, so I always scan the skies. Off in the distance to the south I observed a bright royal blue light just above the horizon. Me being in aviation for 43 years with a FAA A&P certification I knew this was NOT a aircraft. As I watched I got my cell phone out and took a couple of photos and 2 videos (video not very good). I watched with experienced eyes for the details that differs a aircraft from a unknown object. The object slowly moved from south to north increasing in size as it come closer. At about 2 miles it made a 90 degree horizontal turn to the East, a exact angle of 90 degree turn, no sweep turn and no loss of altitude. Traveled about a mile then turned a 180 degree turn and continued heading west about 2 miles made another 90 deg. turn to the south and shortly turned again East for a few seconds then turned south until it disappeared over the horizon. It was moving in the same airspace as several aircraft on departure from Bush Intercontinental Airport. This object had NO aircraft resemblances. This was my first UFO in over 43 years working and flying on all types of aircraft. During the video my cell phone completely turned off and I had to restart it to continue. - MUFON CMS
Russian Meteor's Origin Remains Mysterious 2 Years Later
Two years after an asteroid exploded over Russia and injured more than 1,200 people, the origin of the space rock still puzzles scientists.
The 66-foot-wide (20 meters) asteroid broke up over the city of Chelyabinsk, Russia, on Feb. 15, 2013, shattering windows across the area and sending many people to the hospital with lacerations from the flying glass.
"These two bodies shared similar orbits around the sun, and initial studies suggested even similar compositions," lead study author Vishnu Reddy, a scientist with the nonprofit Planetary Science Institute in Tucson, Arizona, said in a statement.
However, "the composition of [the] Chelyabinsk meteorite that was recovered after the event is similar to a common type of meteorite called LL chondrites," he added. "The near-Earth asteroid has a composition that is distinctly different from this."
More generally, Reddy and his colleagues' work showed that it is difficult to make predictions about what particular asteroid could have shed pieces that slammed into Earth. Because most asteroids are so small and their orbits are "chaotic," it's hard to make a firm link, the authors said.
A paper based on the research appears in the journal Icarus.
The Russian meteor explosion has generated a great deal of interest in the search for potentially hazardous asteroids, sparking the creation of a new asteroid warning center at the European Space Agency, among other initiatives.
In a statement this week, the B612 Foundation, a nonprofit organization that seeks to reduce the threat from asteroids, urged agencies worldwide to step up their search for dangerous space rocks. The group plans to add to that effort with the asteroid-hunting Sentinel Space Telescope, which B612 hopes to launch in 2018.
"The fact of the matter is that asteroid impacts can be prevented using technology we can employ right now," B612 co-founder Ed Lu, a former space shuttle astronaut, said in a statement.
"And unlike other potentially global-scale catastrophic events, the solution is nearly purely a technical one, and with a relatively small and known cost," Lu added. "So as my friend, former Apollo 9 astronaut and co-founder of the B612 Foundation Rusty Schweickart says, 'Let’s get on with it.'" - Space
Canadian MP blamed too-tight underpants for exit from parliament
A Canadian MP blamed his too-tight underpants for leaving parliament in a hurry on Thursday morning. His cut-price and, as it turned out, overly tight underpants made it difficult for him to sit through a one-by-one vote, MP Pat Martin explained. The Winnipeg Centre New Democratic Party representative had voted on a procedural motion to adjourn debate, then left his seat for a moment.
When Conservative MP Royal Galipeau asked deputy speaker Joe Comartin if a vote still counts if an MP leaves while it's being counted, Martin stood up to offer his explanation. "I can blame it on a sale that was down at the Hudson's Bay [Company] – they had men's underwear on for half price. I bought a bunch that was clearly too small for me and I find it difficult to sit for any length of time," he said.
"I apologize if it was necessary for me to leave my seat briefly, but I did not mean to forfeit my right to vote." After a mix of cheers, applause and laughter from the benches, Comartin was forced to rule on whether Martin's vote would count. "Let me try to deal with this with at least some seriousness, we all understand that we have to be in our seats at the time the motion is read ... the member for Winnipeg Centre was in his seat at that time.
"He did step out of his chair for a very short time and was directed by me to sit down again," Comartin said. "I didn't understand the explanation at the time, that he subsequently gave … can't say I really understand it at this point." Comartin then said that since Martin was in his seat when the vote was read and also when he voted that his vote was able to stand. - CBC
We should colonise other planets to protect the human race, Stephen Hawking has said. Human aggression could bring civilisation and humanity to an end and space travel will give us somewhere else to go, he said.
Space represents the long term future of the human race and can act as “life insurance” for the species, Hawking said while escorting an American visitor around London’s Science Museum for a prize.
"Sending humans to the moon changed the future of the human race in ways that we don't yet understand," he said.
"It hasn't solved any of our immediate problems on planet Earth, but it has given us new perspectives on them and caused us to look both outward and inward.
"I believe that the long term future of the human race must be space and that it represents an important life insurance for our future survival, as it could prevent the disappearance of humanity by colonising other planets."
Hawking made the comments after telling his guest, Adaeze Uyanwah, that the human failing he would most like to correct is aggression, which could “destroy us all”. Uyanwah was in London after winning a competition to get her perfect day out in the capital.
Human aggression could bring a nuclear war that would end civilisation and perhaps the uman race, he said. Instead, humans should have more empathy, to bring “us together in a peaceful, loving state.
Ride out the bitter cold this evening. Light the fireplace, wrap yourself in a heavy comforter and turn on your ebook. Oh...and don't forget to lock the doors and close the blinds. Enjoy the Phantoms & Monsters Encounters Series - Thanks for reading. Lon

5 Important Things From History That No One Can Explain
5 Important Things From History That No One Can Explain
February 22, 2015 - As modern humans with constant access to every piece of information that has ever been known, we like to think we're pretty smart. Surely, in these times of carbon dating, digital reconstruction, and computerized archiving, we've learned everything there is to know about our primitive ancestors. Well, you might be surprised -- there are still several major events in history that today's scientists, after years of extensive research, know precisely dick about.
#5. We Don't Know What the Ancient Egyptians Actually Looked Like
Purestock/Purestock/Getty Images
Thanks to a pop culture obsession with ancient Egypt extending at least as far back in history as the early '90s (when Sam Beckett fought a mummy on that one episode of Quantum Leap), we know just about everything there is to know about the people of the ancient Nile. We've decoded their language, we know what gods they worshipped, we know the history of their whole civilization, and we pretty much know the first name of every ceremonially wrapped mummy we've ever torn out of a sarcophagus in the name of discovery.
The only thing we don't know is who they were.
That is, we have no idea what race they were, or what they actually looked like. Mummies of any screed tend to revert to a racially homogenous shade of dirt brown after a few thousand years baking in the desert heat.
Keith Schengili-Roberts/Wiki Commons And it's hard to get a good look at them when they're chasing you and your talking dog through an abandoned mine and/or carnival.
Most people probably imagine the ancient Egyptians as being vaguely Middle Eastern in appearance, because that's how they're portrayed in the movies (you know, when they aren't being played by straight-up white dudes). However, that's just how they've looked since the Persian conquest of Egypt ... which was thousands of years after the people who actually built the pyramids died. Before that, it's anyone's guess.
You see, in the mid-1800s (when Egypt-mania really took off in the Western world), white people who marveled at these giant ancient constructs applied their strongest racist science and assumed the Egyptians were pasty Aryan Europeans, specifically because only white people could have the technical ability to build the pyramids. Others theorized that they were black, due to the fact that Egypt is, you know, in Africa.
Purestock/Purestock/Getty Images A fringe theory suggests that they came to Egypt from a distant land known as "Las Vegas," but records there are scant.
"But what about the thousands of ancient Egyptian paintings we've found?" you might be thinking. "Surely we can look at those and know the skin tone of the mighty Pharaohs!" Well, if you were thinking that, you're wrong again. Egyptian paintings were heavily stylized, with men often portrayed as red and women as bright yellow, which, discounting severe sunburn and/or jaundice, aren't really shades that human beings come in.
Ascending Passage Although this does support the "space aliens" theory.
Greek sources refer to the Egyptians as being "dark-skinned" and "curly-haired," which is sort of helpful in the sense that it lets us know that they probably didn't look like Jackie Chan, but otherwise could mean they were anything from black to Semitic to Italian.
The closest thing that science has to a conclusion is that the Egyptians probably emerged from northern Africa, which, as you may have noticed, is where Egypt is located. So we've got a rough idea, but only in the sense that Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Arnold Vosloo are equally believable as ancient Egyptian princes.
#4. There Are Giant Stone Heads in Central America, and We Have No Idea How They Got There
Quasarphoto/iStock/Getty Images
People were surprisingly good at moving giant stones around in ancient times, mostly because living in the Stone Age gave you little other choice. And despite the History Channel's dogged insistence that Stonehenge and the Great Pyramid could only have been built by extraterrestrials, the truth is that science actually has some pretty good ideas about how regular human beings were able to put those awe-inspiring structures together.
But then there are the Olmec colossal heads, and we're not talking about the magical storytelling dome on Legends of the Hidden Temple.
jejim/iStock/Getty Images "Give me a discman, you son of a bitch."
That's one of the giant stone heads carved by the Olmec civilization in Central America, and archaeologists don't know what the hell their deal is.
The Olmecs are thought to be the oldest civilization in the Americas, predating the better-known trinity of the Incas, the Mayas, and the Aztecs by hundreds of years. Daily life in the Olmec civilization was presumably pretty boring, as they came to the same conclusion as the folks half a world away on Easter Island did and decided that they might as well dedicate all of their idle time to carving giant stone heads.
Photos.com/Photos.com/Getty Images "Should we at least give some of them different expressions? You know, mix it up a little?" "Meh."
Cutting a person's face into a giant piece of rock isn't exactly beyond the realm of possibility, but check this out -- the Olmec heads are carved from volcanic basalt, which was located 80 miles from where the Olmec ultimately settled. Each head weighs close to 20 tons, and the Olmecs never got around to inventing the wheel. So the question is, how in the hell did they get those immense rocks through 80 miles of sweltering, hostile jungle?
Before you say "Well, obviously the same way the Egyptians did it," consider this -- dragging slabs of impossible weight across a desert is an entirely different word problem than figuring out how to carry a bunch of stones each weighing approximately the same amount as Optimus Prime across 80 miles of dense foliage, spiders, snakes, and the occasional 150-foot plateau. The same techniques just wouldn't work.
Madman2001/Wiki Commons They didn't so much colonize as say, "Fuck it, we're far enough. We live here now."
Modern science still doesn't know how or why the Olmecs dedicated such a huge amount of effort into dragging these massive heads through such impassable terrain, outside of maybe some ancient, oversized game of long-distance bowling.
#3. There Is a Huge Network of Mysterious, Man-Made Caves in China
In 1992, a uniquely curious man in the Chinese village of Longyou pooled his money with his neighbors to buy a water pump and began siphoning out the pond in his village, only to eventually discover that it wasn't really a pond at all, but the flooded entrance to an ancient, man-made cave. Upon investigation, it turned out that, rather than the entrance to Chinese Batman's secret lair, this cave was one in a network of 36 hidden chambers in the area, all dating back to the early Han dynasty, about 2,000 years ago.
China Culture So we can't rule out ancient Chinese Batman.
We'd like to tell you more about them, but the modern world's knowledge of the subterranean caves of Chinese mystery begins and ends with that single fact. We literally know nothing else about them.
There are no documents whatsoever, at least none that have been discovered, that record the construction or purpose of the Longyou Caves, although the excavation would have been an immense, government-contracted project involving the movement of 900,000 cubic meters of rock. This is especially odd considering the ancient Chinese were meticulous record-keepers. That's one of the reasons why the Great Wall is about as much of a mystery as the Chrysler Building -- there are documents telling us exactly who built it and for what purpose. However, nothing like that exists for the three dozen caves buried beneath the area on the outskirts of Shanghai. For all we know, a wizard put them there one year to heighten the suspense of an Easter egg hunt.
Ancient Origins Although we're starting to lean towards "predator hunting ground."
We know that they're not natural formations, because the interior of the caves are covered in chisel marks, and it contains stairs, support columns, and paintings, which generally aren't the result of tectonic shifts. But for whatever reason, this huge and very expensive project had been kept top secret until its accidental rediscovery in the early-1990s. They could be a clandestine series of burial chambers for an elite Chinese family, or they could be strategically placed man caves dug for the wealthiest man in Shanghai to hide from his family and play the ancient Chinese equivalent of NFL Blitz. There is precisely the same amount of evidence to support either scenario.

NASA is Preparing the World for Extraterrestrial Contact
NASA is Preparing the World for Extraterrestrial Contact
A couple of months ago top US astronomers gathered in front of congress to let them know that extraterrestrial life exists without question.
Their main argument was the size of the universe, emphasizing that there are trillions of stars out there, with one in every five most likely harboring an Earth-like planet.
It’s also important to keep in mind that planets do not have to be “Earth-like” in order to harbor life.
“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 (source)
This time, NASA and the Library of Congress have teamed up bringing together scientists, theologians, philosophers and historians from around the globe for a two day symposium in order to discuss how to prepare the world for extraterrestrial contact, whether it be 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!
“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. 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. 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.” – Astronomer, symposium organizer and former chief NASA historian, Steven J. Dick. (source)
One of the theologians present was Brother Guy Consolmagno, who is the new president of the Vatican Observatory Foundation. This is what he had to say:
“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.” (source)
He is urging the public not to be so surprised when extraterrestrial life is discovered, because it will be discovered. He even said that he would be happy to baptize them, if it’s intelligent extraterrestrial life that’s discovered. The Vatican has been very open to the idea of intelligent extraterrestrial life, and they’ve expressed these views for a very long time.
Earth is not the center of the universe, it’s not flat, and it’s looking very likely that the next major paradigm shifting revelation will be the fact that we are not alone in the universe.
It’s great to see the mainstream world gather, discuss and prepare for this possibility and ultimate reality, and it’s a great seg-way to create more awareness about the world of secrecy, the world’s within our world that deal with projects the human race knows nothing about.
The Other Probability – Intelligent Extraterrestrial Life is Already Here
All of the information I’ve provided below is probably old information for CE fans that regularly visit our site. This information is from a previous article I wrote earlier in the year, I thought it would be fitting to cut and paste it here for our new readers. You can find more CE articles on the UFO/Extraterrestrial topic by visiting our exopolitics section HERE.
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)
Here’s one of them:
“Yes there have been crashed craft, and bodies recovered. We are not alone in the universe, they have been coming here for a long time.”(source) (source) – Apollo 14 Astronaut, Air Force Captain and Founder of the Institute of Noetic Sciences, Dr. Edgar Mitchell
There are multiple reasons why the extraterrestrial question continues to gain popularity. People are starting to ask questions about the world around them, utilizing critical thinking and investigation. After thoroughly investigating this topic your conclusions will be similar to the conclusions of the majority, we are not alone, and we are being visited.
1. The Size of the Universe
How often do you look up into the night sky and wonder just how many stars, planets, galaxies and more are out there? Space has been a high area of interest that has always fascinated scientists, philosophers, musicians and pretty much just about everyone.
What is it about deep space that grabs our attention so much? To think about just how big the universe is can really put things into perspective.
Counting the stars in the universe is like trying to count the number of sand grains on a beach, not possible.
Although estimates vary among different experts, the general consensus is that there are at least between 100 billion and 200 billion galaxies in our universe. Think about that for a moment, and now throw in billions of stars in each galaxy! (source) This number could very easily be in the trillions for all we know.
Take the Milky Way Galaxy for example, which measures to about 120,000 light years across (it would take light that many years to travel across the galaxy), and contains up to 400 billion stars. Again, that’s billions of galaxies that contain billions of stars. (source)
Scientists estimate that at least 10 billion habitable Earth-sized planets exist in the milky way alone ( one galaxy out of billions), but it’s important to keep an open mind as to what type of conditions and environments some unknown extraterrestrial like forms could thrive in. They all don’t necessarily have to be Earth-like.
Given our estimation of the size of the universe, or multiverse (whatever you want to call it), odds are we are not alone.
2. Whistle Blowers
The past few years have seen a surge of whistle-blowers that’ve come out and said some remarkable things. Bradley Manning, Edward Snowden and Julian Assange have received the most attention, but the reality is that there are hundreds of whistle blowers who have come forward with verified credentials and backgrounds.
Mass survelience and the security state is not the only thing shocking people around the world, it’s the fact that many of these whistle blowers claim that we are not alone in the universe. It wouldn’t be so hard to ignore if it wasn’t for the backgrounds these people have in their respected fields.
The first one that comes to mind is Paul Hellyer, Former Canadian Defence Minister, the man responsible for unifying the Canadian Air Force, Army and the Navy into one united force now known as the Canadian Forces.
For someone with such a background to come out and make these extraordinary claims definitely grabbed the attention of many people.
“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.”(source)
”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.” (source)
Paul Hellyer isn’t the only one making extraordinary statements, at least a dozen NASA astronauts have done the same. Just like Dr. Edgar Mitchell’s quote, other astronauts have said some remarkable things. Let’s take a look at a few (out of many) examples.
“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
“In my opinion I think they were worried that it would panic the public so they started telling lies about it. And then I think they had to tell another lie to cover their first lie, now they don’t know how to get out of it. Now it’s going to be so embarrassing to admit that all these administrations have told so many untruths, it would be embarrassing getting out of it. There are a number of extraterrestrial vehicles out there cruising around.” (source) – Gordon Cooper, Former NASA Astronaut, Aeronautical Engineer and test pilot. One of the seven original Astronauts in Project Mercury, the first manned space program of the United States
The list goes on and on, the latest in NASA Astronaut statements about UFOs came from the 2005 International Space Station (ISS) Commander, Leroy Chiao. You can read more about that HERE.
Here is a video of John Podesta who was recently appointed as councilor to Barack Obama supporting UFO disclosure.
Some of the most extraordinary statements about UFOs and extraterrestrials come from persons who have held some of the highest positions known. Those who would be in a position to ‘know’ about possible extraterrestrial encounters.
“Behind the scenes, high ranking Air Force officers are soberly concerned about UFOs. But through official secrecy and ridicule, many citizens are led to believe the unknown flying objects are nonsense” Former head of CIA, Roscoe Hillenkoetter, 1960 (source)
“There is a serious possibility that we are being visited and have been visited for many years by people from outer space, by other civilizations. Who they are, where they are from, and what they want should be the subject of rigorous scientific investigation and not be the subject of ‘rubishing’ by tabloid newspapers.” (source) – Lord Admiral Hill-Norton, Former Chief of Defence Staff, 5 Star Admiral of the Royal Navy, Chairman of the NATO Military Committee
“Everything is in a process of investigation both in the United States and in Spain, as well as the rest of the world. The nations of the world are currently working together in the investigation of the UFO phenomenon. There is an international exchange of data.” – General Carlos Castro Cavero (1979). From “UFOs and the National Security State, Volume 2″, Written by Richard Dolan
The list of military whistle blowers is huge, there are hundreds of them and hundreds of quotes to choose from. To view military whistleblowers (with verified backgrounds) give a press conference at The National Press Club about UFOs deactivating nuclear weapons, click HERE. You can also look up Dr. Steven Greer and the disclosure project.
The list of quotes from all fields, from many people is outstanding. I could literally fill pages upon pages so I’ll stop here, I think you get the picture. These quotes by whistleblowers and people with prestigious backgrounds leads perfectly into the next point as to why almost everybody knows that we are not alone in the universe.
“There is another way whether it’s wormholes or warping space, there’s got to be a way to generate energy so that you can pull it out of the vacuum, and the fact that they’re here shows us that they found a way.” (source) - Jack Kasher, Ph.D, Professor Emeritus of Physics, University of Nebraska
In this clip, it seems he (Dr. Jack Kasher) is referring to FREE ENERGY.
“This thing has gotten so highly-classified…it is just impossible to get anything on it. I have no idea who controls the flow of need-to-know because, frankly, I was told in such an emphatic way that it was none of my business that I’ve never tried to make it to be my business since. I have been interested in this subject for a long time and I do know that whatever the Air Force has on the subject is going to remain highly classified” – Senator Barry Goldwater , Chairman of the Senate intelligence committee (source)
3. The Evidence of UFOs
Within the past few years, dozens of governments admitted to allocating resources and having programs to study the UFO phenomenon. For instance, in Canada the RCMP, Transport Canada, and the Department of National Defence recently admitted to tracking UFOs and investigating them. (source)
They’ve been doing it for years, accumulating thousands upon thousands of UFO related documents. Many of these documents have since been officially released.
HERE is the latest batch of UFO files released from the United Kingdom.
Documents released by the National Security Agency (NSA) reveal what is recorded when a UFO is being tracked on radar. HERE is one example. HERE is a four page U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency and NSA report describing a particular encounter in great detail.
“As the F-4 approached a range of 25 nautical miles it lost all instrumentation and communications. When the F-4 turned away from the object and apparently was no longer a threat to it, the aircraft regained all instrumentation and communications. Another brightly lighted object came out of the original object. The second object headed straight toward the F4. ”
You can read more about the radar tracking of UFOs HERE.
HERE is a Wikileak cable that describes how some politicians already know we are not alone in the universe. You can read more about that HERE.
Again the list goes on and on and thousands upon thousands of UFO related documents are now available in the public domain.
For a summary of more documents that have been declassified and made available, a video done by UFO Richard Dolan does a great one in 10 minutes. To watch it click HERE and see what type of information is out there.
4. Mass Mainstream Media Attention
Media outlets of all kind are covering the topic, almost every movie that comes out these days has something to do with space or some kind of extraterrestrial intelligence. We’ve been bombarded with the topic for a while now so it’s not hard to see how it’s on the minds of many.
The most recent case of mainstream extraterrestrial ‘noise’ was made when scientists recently spoke to the house Committee on Science, Space and Technology. Dan Werthimer of the SETI Research Centre at the University of California, Berkeley, recently called for more funding to be allocated to the search for extraterrestrial life since he is “close to 100 percent” certain that we are not alone. (source)
In mid 2013, the same committee held a hearing about exoplanet discoveries, but perhaps one of the largest UFO/extraterrestrial hearings came at the National Press Club, which also took place in Mid-2013.
At this event, hundreds of researchers, activists and military/ agency/ political witnesses representing ten countries gave UFO/extraterrestrial testimony to six former members of the United States Congress about events and evidence indicating an extraterrestrial presence engaging the human race.
Former Sen. Mike Gravel (D-Alaska), and 2008 presidential candidate said that there is “an extraterrestrial influence that is investigating our planet. Something is monitoring the planet and they are monitoring it very cautiously.” You can learn more about the citizens hearing here.
Apart from these events, UFOs are constantly a topic of interest in today’s mainstream news. Unfortunately, most mainstream media outlets that cover the topic seek out to ridicule it rather than investigating it properly.
To view military whistleblowers (with verified backgrounds) give a press conference at The National Press Club about UFOs deactivating nuclear weapons, click HERE.
There are millions of people out there claiming to have contact with extraterrestrial beings. This has played a large role in spreading the influence of extraterrestrial interest across the world. All of us seem to be naturally fascinated with the unknown, especially when it comes to space. It seems like human nature.
Neuroscience can now explain what happens to our body when we meditate, but it’s something we all knew to be beneficial before the science. Is extraterrestrial life similar? Is it something we all feel deep down inside, something we don’t need proof for? (Even though the proof is there).
Besides the thousands of videos available on YouTube, there is some very fascinating officially documented UFO footage available for us to see. Click HERE to see raw footage of a UFO showing up in Norway for scientists at their observatory.
Click HERE and HERE to see film from the 1991 NASA STS-48 Discovery Space Shuttle mission. It’s some of the best, officially documented UFO footage that’s out there today.
HERE is a video that made headlines once released. It came from straight front the Mexican Air Force. Do a quick UFO search on youtube and you’ll see many fakes, but many real videos of unknown aerial objects. Final Thoughts
A few years ago the question was “Do UFOs exist?” Today that question has been answered, and the presence of UFOs performing maneuvers that defy our laws of physics has been well documented. The question has more so shifted to, “Is that an extraterrestrial space craft?”
It’s nothing to fear, in my opinion they’ve been around forever. They have been aware of us long before we have been aware of them. As speculated with our ancient civilizations in Earth’s brief past, perhaps they will one day interact with humanity again. I guess we will see.
Perhaps some groups are concerned about our planet, and come here further pushing the idea that we need to start changing the way we are doing things here. Perhaps one day soon we will find out.
I definitely believe that a good chunk of these UFOs are of extraterrestrial origin. I also believe that many of these crafts are “ours.”

Watch: 5 possible UFO sightings in Chattanooga
Watch: 5 possible UFO sightings in Chattanooga
Do UFOs indicate the presence of alien activity on Earth? (Photo: Brian Smith, Flickr)
In late January, a collection of previously classified documents on UFO sightings from 1952 to 1970 were made easily searchable by a website called The Black Vault.
And while the Project Blue Book files are available through a Freedom of Information Act request, the searchable database has since been removed from The Black Vault website because of a copyright claim by Ancestry.com. Click here to read more.
While it was online, I spent several hours searching through the archives while listening to the soundtrack from "The X-Files." Only a few of the Chattanooga reports were of any interest historically. However, some of the reports were jarring not because of the incidents but the responses to those incidents from government officials.
One in particular dismissed an elderly woman's 1959 claim that her observation from Missionary Ridge was nothing more than a routine weather balloon.
In order to find the good stuff, you have to search YouTube. The following accounts are videos of supposed UFO activity in the Chattanooga region. You may draw your own conclusions, but I encourage you to keep an open mind as you watch the videos.
Have you ever seen a UFO? Do you believe that aliens are visiting us? Or that the government agencies are keeping secrets? Are you scared? Are you willing to be probed?
The Hixson triangle At approximately 10:55 p.m. EST Feb. 27, 2014, a man was observing the sky in Hixson when he noticed something strange. According to a testimony, the man saw "an unlighted, triangular-shaped object glide across the night sky." He mentioned no sound and said the object remained for 12 seconds before disappearing. As a longtime observer of the sky, the man had never seen anything like it before or since. He promises it was not a plane or bird. No further information is available. There is no video of the account, but you can imagine this was similar to the 2009 Phoenix lights.
Possible cause: Bird or plane
The amber UFO This is video from a man observing what he calls an "amber, reddish UFO" over his apartment complex in Chattanooga. The light appears to hover and flash above the tree line for over 60 seconds. Click here to watch the video. The date of the video is Feb. 4, 2012, but the man says the date is Feb. 5 within the video. More interesting, perhaps, are the comments from other people who claim to have seen a similar light. It should be noted that this user also posted a video called "More UFOs over Chattanooga" in which he is seen releasing weather balloons and observing them as if they were UFOs.
Possible cause: Weather balloon
Chinese drone or UFO? This incident is particularly difficult to understand, not because of the quality of the video but because of the irritating voices of the narrators and the fact the video was recorded vertically. A light, similar to the one in the videos above, appears over a row of houses. The gentlemen (and I shudder to use that word) speak to the UFO as if it can hear them. "Hey, UFO!" one of them says. "Goodbye, UFO," they say as it disappears into the horizon. Also curious was the comment from a third party on the scene that the UFO was, in fact, a "Chinese drone." Click here to view the video.
Possible cause: Chinese drone
The Walmart sighting A woman claims to have been on her way to Walmart on Jan. 16, 2015, when she observed and documented a ball of light in the night sky. For nearly five minutes, the ball of light is visible in the video. It seems to change from a bright, glowing green to a dark red color. The woman recording the video does not make a sound, perhaps because she is terrified a flash of light may bring her onto the vessel. Click here to view the video.
Possible cause: I don’t know. Gas?
Ringgold tornado UFO In this very dramatic video, a tour of tornado damage in the Ringgold area causes even more concern. At the one-minute mark of the video, the footage slows down and begins panning slowly across the field of view. A small, bug-sized black splotch appears. The video seems to zero in on the grainy object. Is this evidence that UFOs were present following the devastation of the 2011 tornadoes? Or, to go further, might this video be evidence of the presence of sky people?
There are more and more videos about crop circles as they are appearing more frequently. This is an amazing observation of recent crop design creations. Earth time is different than space time.
Pioneering biologist Lipton collaborates with political scientist Bhaerman for this examination of how the Earth is actually healing itself.
They reveal how our changing understanding of biology will help us navigate this turbulent period in our planet’s history, and how each of us can participate in this global shift.
Comments: I have always believed history to be wrong. The only history you can barely trust is what is happening today. In this book, a lot of people dispel the myth of Joseph Smith who founded the Mormon religion. Joseph Smith received information from an angel named Moroni.
Moroni delivered metal plates to Joseph Smith that set the foundation of the Mormon religion. Could these metal plates provided to Joseph Smith come from a lost subterranean labyrinth in Ecuador? Legend has it that this secret library contains thousands of gold panels. Erich shows the link to this library with the Book of Enoch and to the present day Mormons.
Erich’s theories make sense and it’s a hard book to put down.
Joseph Smith has 11 witnesses to the metal plates and these 11 witnesses all signed a document attesting to their existence. Joseph Smith could not make up the documentation of these plates, because the plates contained family disputes, wars, migrations, genealogies (the sequence of the generations with their countless offshoots), with complicated names, confusing quotes, landscapes and locations. There is too much stuff to invent just for one man.
The history that we don’t know about is that there was a war of the Gods. The fallen angels went against the Most High aka the Great Glory and started having their way with Earth girls. The Great Glory gets sick of the whole thing and creates a massive flood. Erich puts everything together, when you pick up a bible and read: “When men began to increase in number on Earth and daughters were born to them, the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were beautiful, and they married any of them they chose.”
You can see how the story makes sense and the fallen angel myth has a strong foundation to reality. Erich places the Voynich manuscript into perspective, your eyes will open to Erich’s profound and just theories. If you want to understand the correct history, let Erich take you down the path that will carry the answers you seek.
History is Wrong deserves a standing ovation for the enlightening information that it carries from cover to cover!e

How Can Space Travel Faster Than The Speed Of Light?
How Can Space Travel Faster Than The Speed Of Light?
byVanessa Janek
Light speed is often spoken of as a cosmic speed limit… but not everything plays by these rules. In fact, space itself can expand faster than a photon could ever hope to travel.
Cosmologists are intellectual time travelers. Looking back over billions of years, these scientists are able to trace the evolution of our Universe in astonishing detail. 13.8 billion years ago, the Big Bang occurred. Fractions of a second later, the fledgling Universe expanded exponentially during an incredibly brief period of time called inflation. Over the ensuing eons, our cosmos has grown to such an enormous size that we can no longer see the other side of it.
But how can this be? If light’s velocity marks a cosmic speed limit, how can there possibly be regions of spacetime whose photons are forever out of our reach? And even if there are, how do we know that they exist at all?
The Expanding Universe
Like everything else in physics, our Universe strives to exist in the lowest possible energy state possible. But around 10-36 seconds after the Big Bang, inflationary cosmologists believe that the cosmos found itself resting instead at a “false vacuum energy” – a low-point that wasn’t really a low-point. Seeking the true nadir of vacuum energy, over a minute fraction of a moment, the Universe is thought to have ballooned by a factor of 1050.
Since that time, our Universe has continued to expand, but at a much slower pace. We see evidence of this expansion in the light from distant objects. As photons emitted by a star or galaxy propagate across the Universe, the stretching of space causes them to lose energy. Once the photons reach us, their wavelengths have been redshifted in accordance with the distance they have traveled.

This is why cosmologists speak of redshift as a function of distance in both space and time. The light from these distant objects has been traveling for so long that, when we finally see it, we are seeing the objects as they were billions of years ago.
The Hubble Volume
Redshifted light allows us to see objects like galaxies as they existed in the distant past; but we cannot see all events that occurred in our Universe during its history. Because our cosmos is expanding, the light from some objects is simply too far away for us ever to see.
The physics of that boundary rely, in part, on a chunk of surrounding spacetime called the Hubble volume. Here on Earth, we define the Hubble volume by measuring something called the Hubble parameter (H0), a value that relates the apparent recession speed of distant objects to their redshift. It was first calculated in 1929, when Edwin Hubble discovered that faraway galaxies appeared to be moving away from us at a rate that was proportional to the redshift of their light.

Dividing the speed of light by H0, we get the Hubble volume. This spherical bubble encloses a region where all objects move away from a central observer at speeds less than the speed of light. Correspondingly, all objects outside of the Hubble volume move away from the center faster than the speed of light.
Yes, “faster than the speed of light.” How is this possible?
The Magic of Relativity
The answer has to do with the difference between special relativity and general relativity. Special relativity requires what is called an “inertial reference frame” – more simply, a backdrop. According to this theory, the speed of light is the same when compared in all inertial reference frames. Whether an observer is sitting still on a park bench on planet Earth or zooming past Neptune in a futuristic high-velocity rocketship, the speed of light is always the same. A photon always travels away from the observer at 300,000,000 meters per second, and he or she will never catch up.
General relativity, however, describes the fabric of spacetime itself. In this theory, there is no inertial reference frame. Spacetime is not expanding with respect to anything outside of itself, so the the speed of light as a limit on its velocity doesn’t apply. Yes, galaxies outside of our Hubble sphere are receding from us faster than the speed of light. But the galaxies themselves aren’t breaking any cosmic speed limits. To an observer within one of those galaxies, nothing violates special relativity at all. It is the space in between us and those galaxies that is rapidly proliferating and stretching exponentially.
The Observable Universe
Now for the next bombshell: The Hubble volume is not the same thing as the observable Universe.
To understand this, consider that as the Universe gets older, distant light has more time to reach our detectors here on Earth. We can see objects that have accelerated beyond our current Hubble volume because the light we see today was emitted when they were within it.
Strictly speaking, our observable Universe coincides with something called the particle horizon. The particle horizon marks the distance to the farthest light that we can possibly see at this moment in time – photons that have had enough time to either remain within, or catch up to, our gently expanding Hubble sphere.
And just what is this distance? A little more than 46 billion light years in every direction – giving our observable Universe a diameter of approximately 93 billion light years, or more than 500 billion trillion miles.
The observable universe, more technically known as the particle horizon.
(A quick note: the particle horizon is not the same thing as the cosmological event horizon. The particle horizon encompasses all the events in the past that we can currently see. The cosmological event horizon, on the other hand, defines a distance within which a future observer will be able to see the then-ancient light our little corner of spacetime is emitting today.
In other words, the particle horizon deals with the distance to past objects whose ancient light that we can see today; the cosmological event horizon deals with the distance that our present-day light that will be able to travel as faraway regions of the Universe accelerate away from us.)
Dark Energy
Thanks to the expansion of the Universe, there are regions of the cosmos that we will never see, even if we could wait an infinite amount of time for their light to reach us. But what about those areas just beyond the reaches of our present-day Hubble volume? If that sphere is also expanding, will we ever be able to see those boundary objects?
This depends on which region is expanding faster – the Hubble volume or the parts of the Universe just outside of it. And the answer to that question depends on two things: 1) whether H0 is increasing or decreasing, and 2) whether the Universe is accelerating or decelerating. These two rates are intimately related, but they are not the same.
In fact, cosmologists believe that we are actually living at a time when H0 is decreasing; but because of dark energy, the velocity of the Universe’s expansion is increasing.
That may sound counterintuitive, but as long as H0 decreases at a slower rate than that at which the Universe’s expansion velocity is increasing, the overall movement of galaxies away from us still occurs at an accelerated pace. And at this moment in time, cosmologists believe that the Universe’s expansion will outpace the more modest growth of the Hubble volume.
So even though our Hubble volume is expanding, the influence of dark energy appears to provide a hard limit to the ever-increasing observable Universe.
Our Earthly Limitations
Cosmologists seem to have a good handle on deep questions like what our observable Universe will someday look like and how the expansion of the cosmos will change. But ultimately, scientists can only theorize the answers to questions about the future based on their present-day understanding of the Universe. Cosmological timescales are so unimaginably long that it is impossible to say much of anything concrete about how the Universe will behave in the future. Today’s models fit the current data remarkably well, but the truth is that none of us will live long enough to see whether the predictions truly match all of the outcomes.
Disappointing? Sure. But totally worth the effort to help our puny brains consider such mind-bloggling science – a reality that, as usual, is just plain stranger than fiction.

A new study has called in to question conventional theories about the disappearance of the islanders.
A small land mass of only 60 square miles, Easter Island has remained something of an enigma for years. Its army of strange stone heads and the unexplained disappearance of its inhabitants are mysteries that continue to draw both intrigue and puzzlement.
For a long time it was thought that the people of Easter Island had been in steady decline long before Europeans arrived there in 1722 and that their overuse of the island's natural resources had been the biggest contributing factor in their eventual demise.
Now however researchers have published a new paper providing evidence that the depletion of resources was unlikely to have been the cause of the islanders' disappearance.
The study, which was led by Christopher M. Stevenson of Virginia Commonwealth University, suggests that while the inhabitants did see a slight reduction in numbers prior to European contact it was not likely to have been indicative of mass starvation and population collapse.
Instead it appears to have been contact with the Europeans, who brought diseases such as smallpox and syphilis, that was almost entirely responsible for their eventual disappearance.

UFO near Jackhead? It's actually a plane, says military
UFO near Jackhead? It's actually a plane, says military
Posts like these were circulating on Twitter and Facebook on Wednesday night, with people suggesting there was a UFO crash near Jackhead, Man. It was actually an airplane being used in a military training exercise, according to the Canadian Forces. (Twitter)
Social media reports of a possible UFO sighting last night near Jackhead, Man., are not true, says the Canadian Forces, which attributed the bright light people saw to an airplane from a training exercise.
On Wednesday night, several people said on Twitter and Facebook that they saw a bright light in the sky, fuelling speculation that it may have been an unidentified flying object.
The rumour became stronger when photos were posted of Canadian Forces vehicles in the area, with some people claiming the military was there to contain a UFO crash site.
But it was not a UFO at all, says Lt.-Col. Paul Davies, commanding officer 38 Territorial Battalion Group, which is involved in an Arctic Response Company Group training exercise on Lake Winnipeg this week.

"There's no aliens, just my friends in the air force who are out there helping us on this exercise," Davies told CBC News on Thursday.
"I have the commander of that air force contingent sitting right beside me and, you know, he assures us that that was not a UFO, but that was him."
About 150 military personnel are taking part in Exercise Arctic Bison 2015, which includes the 38 Canadian Brigade Group, the 2nd Battalion of the Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry, the 4th Canadian Ranger Patrol Group, and 440 Squadron of the Royal Canadian Air Force.
Davies said soldiers are training to deal with a plane crash and provide ground search and rescue support in the Arctic.
The bright light that people saw, he explained, came from an airplane that takes off very quickly.
"From a distance it may have looked like it was going straight up in the air, but it wasn't," he said. "It was just us out there playing our games."
(N.Morgan) As our environment has been experiencing some major and unexplained changes in the midst of those changes another event has occurred that has left the science world stumped, massive clouds erupted 260 Km into the Martian atmosphere. This is way beyond Mars’s normal weather, reaching into the exosphere where the atmosphere merges with interplanetary space.
None of the conventional explanations for such clouds make sense – neither water or carbon dioxide ice nor dust storms nor auroral light emissions usually hit such heights.
Space agencies have put a great deal of effort into learning all there is to know about Mars, yet it was amateur Red Planet enthusiasts that made a very puzzling discovery not long ago. Among them is stargazer Damian Peach who, in 2012, spotted and photographed a mysterious plume hovering high above the Martian surface. At first he thought it may be an equipment malfunction, but a perusal of the several images he’d taken showed that it was, in fact, a feature.
Scientists have since confirmed the sightings, but haven’t been able to determine what the strange mass was. One of the possibilities considered is that it was a cloud of either water particles or carbon dioxide gas.The problem with that theory is that the cloud was located around 125 miles above the planet, something that based on the current understanding of Mars and its atmosphere just isn’t possible.
Several other explanations, like auroras and debris from volcanic eruptions, have been posited and ruled out as well, as ultimately they just don’t pan out scientifically. Further study and definitive answers may have to wait until the plume appears again.
Een komeet waarvan iedereen dacht dat deze de passage van de zon nooit zou overleven, doet dit wel.
Verder laat een nieuwe video zien dat het aan de oppervlakte van de zon wemelt van de UFO’s en andere vreemde verschijnselen.
Astronomen krabben zich achter de oren want een kleine komeet die de zon van heel dichtbij passeerde, had in duizenden stukken uiteen moeten vallen.
Opvallend genoeg gebeurde dit niet en overleefde de kleine komeet met de naam SOHO-2875 de passage van de zon.
Het is ook een beetje een vreemde komeet want hij is niet gerelateerd aan een bekende groep zoals de Kreutz familie. De meeste die we zien behoren daartoe en zijn onderdeel van een gigantisch grote komeet die eeuwen geleden uitelkaar is gevallen. Ze hebben hun naam te danken aan de 19e eeuwse astronoom Heinrich Kreutz.
Nu is het niet helemaal ongebruikelijk dat er af en toe een soort "lone wolf" komeet opduikt die bij geen enkele familie hoort, zoals in dit geval, maar dat deze de passage van de zon op zo'n korte afstand overleeft, is wel heel bijzonder.
Na de passage van de zon heeft de komeet nu ook een heuse staart en zal misschien over een paar weken zichtbaar zijn vanaf de aarde.
Via een lezer (dank!) kregen wij de volgende video opgestuurd.
Het is een opname gemaakt met de zogenaamde Helioviewer. Dit is software waardoor wij in staat zijn de resultaten van de diverse NASA telescopen in de buurt van de zon te bekijken.
Wanneer je goed kijkt, zie je allerlei UFO’s heen en weer schieten aan de oppervlakte van de zon.
Na ongeveer tien seconden, schuift er bovendien iets merkwaardigs door het beeld. Wat dat is, is de puzzel van de week. Suggesties zijn welkom.
Popular UFO Sightings From Project Blue Book Files
Popular UFO Sightings From Project Blue Book Files
Project Blue Book, investigation effort by the U.S. Air Force on UFO sightings spanning from 1952 to 1970, has been available for quite some time now. But the compilation of all cases into an easy-to-search database has just launched recently by The Black Vault. Here are some of the most interesting and famous cases from the files of Project Blue Book.
On January 7, 1948, Kentucky police spotted a UFO and Captain Thomas F. Mantell, a pilot at Kentucky Air National Guard, chased it. Godman Army Airfield received a report from an officer about the UFO too. And officers in the control tower also noticed the same mysterious aerial object. Mantell chased the UFO up to 20,000 feet, but moments later he blacked out because of insufficient oxygen. Mantell lost control and crashed.
Several people reported similar UFO sightings over Socorro, New Mexico on April 24, 1964, including State police officer Lonnie Zamora, who saw the unidentified flying object on the ground before it took off. He now known Lonnie Zamora Incident received extensive media coverage, and Project Blue Book author described Zamora as sincere, honest, and reliable.
Betty and Barney Hill both said they spotted a UFO following their vehicle as they were returning home in September 1961 and that aliens abducted them. Through a regression therapy session conducted in 1963, the abduction wasrevealed. Barney and Betty detailed their abduction and scientific experiments done to them by aliens under hypnosis.

Thousands of people gathered in Phoenix this week for the largest UFO conference in the United States.
First held in 1991, the International UFO Congress is an annual get-together for UFO enthusiasts, researchers, alien abductees and anyone else with an interest in the phenomenon.
Among the attractions at the event are presentations by guest speakers, discussion panels, a film festival and even a series of therapy sessions for those who believe that they have been abducted by extraterrestrials.
"Most often people just want to know what happened to them," said hypnotherapist Yvonne Smith who attended the event. "They ask if they are crazy or if it was all a dream."
Also at the conference was nuclear physicist and author Stanton Friedman who was promoting his latest book about the government's efforts to cover up evidence about UFOs.
"Secrets are kept by security clearance and need-to-know basis," he said.
Private investigator Darrel Sims, who claims to have had his own encounter with aliens, was also at the event showcasing unidentified items that had been removed from alleged abductees.
"I remember seeing a pure white body in my room," he recalled. "It was skinny and spindly."
Sims, who was also a speaker at the event, is now seeking conclusive DNA evidence to prove once and for all that our planet is being visited by beings from another world.
On Monday, March 01, 1999, the National UFO Reporting Center (NUFORC) received a call over its telephone Hotline (206-722-3000) from an individual who identified himself as an employee in the forestry industry in Washington State. The individual left a message, in which he reported that a team of forestry workers allegedly had been witness to an incident on Thursday, February 25, 1999, during which time an elk was lifted off the ground and carried away by a very peculiar, disc-shaped object. Peter Davenport, Director of NUFORC, contacted several of the individuals whose names and telephone numbers had been provided by the first contact. Based on those telephone conversations, he elected to initiate a preliminary investigation of the incident. Because NUFORC traditionally does not serve as an investigative body, Mr. Davenport contacted Mr. Robert A. Fairfax, Director of Investigations for the Washington State Chapter of the Mutual UFO Network, which does conduct investigations of alleged UFO sightings. Messrs. Davenport and Fairfax traveled to the location of the alleged incident, and jointly have been conducting an investigation of this elk abduction case since Friday, March 05. Their investigation to date has included a trip to the site of the incident, an interview of three of the alleged fourteen witnesses to the actual abduction, and several conversations with individuals who work with the eyewitnesses. In addition, the investigators inspected the carcass of an adult elk, a pregnant cow, which was found dead beside a logging road on March 01 by other forestry employees within a few miles of the principal event. The investigation and collection of facts surrounding the case will continue. This preliminary summary of their findings to date is submitted jointly by Messrs. Davenport and Fairfax. Incident Summary: On Thursday, February 25, 1999, at just a few minutes before noon, three forestry workers, who were planting seedling trees in the mountains of Washington State, witnessed a small, disc-shaped object slowly drift over a nearby ridge to their south, and descend into the valley to the north of their position. The object descended silently with what seemed to the witnesses a purposeful manner, exhibiting a slight “wobble” to its flight. The three workers at first thought the object was some kind of parachute that was drifting and descending, but they quickly realized that their initial impression was not correct. Hence, they shouted to their eleven coworkers nearby, who were working on the north-facing hillside, and all fourteen members of the work crew watched the object for an estimated 3-5 minutes. Within seconds of their first observation of the object, the witnesses became aware that the object was travelling generally in the direction of a herd of elk that they had been watching all morning. They continued to watch as the object proceeded toward the herd until it succeeded in getting quite close to the animals. The animals apparently remained unaware of the object’s presence until it was within a very short distance of the herd. Suddenly, the animals bolted, most of the them running up the slope to their east. However, one adult animal was seen by the witnesses to separate itself from the herd and run or trot to generally to the north, perhaps along a logging road The witnesses report that at this point, the object quickly moved directly above the lone elk and seemed to lift it off the ground, although no visible means of support of the animal was evident to the observers.
The witnesses added that shortly after lifting the elk off the ground, the object seemed to begin to “wobble” to a more pronounced degree than it had exhibited earlier. In addition, as the object appeared to increase its altitude, the elk, which was suspended upright below the disc, rotated slowly beneath it and appeared to be getting closer to the ventral surface of the disc. They also commented that the object seemed to increase in size slightly after it had picked up the animal. With the elk suspended below it, the object began to ascend slowly up a clear-cut slope to the east. However, the witnesses watched it apparently brush the tops of nearby trees to the east, at which point it reversed its course and proceeded to the west. It executed a 360-degree turn to the left and may have gained some slight altitude in the process, the witnesses thought. After the object had completed its turn and was once again proceeding in a generally easterly direction, it began ascending very quickly at what seemed to the witnesses to be a rather steep angle.
It continued to ascend, and simply disappeared from sight of the witnesses. The witnesses stated that once the object had started to ascend and had climbed to an altitude above their vantage point, they no longer could see the animal suspended below the craft. Their presumption was that the animal had somehow been taken into the craft, although the witnesses could discern no “door,” or any kind of aperture through which the animal might have been conveyed into the craft. The witnesses also stated that following the incident, the herd of elk remained in the same general area, although remained more closely huddled to one another than had been the case earlier in the morning. The workers added that they, too, had remained closer to one another until their departure from the area at the end of the work day.
Two alleged UFOs (unidentified flying objects) were seen and recorded last Sunday in San Isidro.
The video, uploaded to the YouTube account of Antonio Cayo Torres, shows two intermittent lights in the sky. Social media commentary suggests that the “apparition” of the alleged UFOS was around 19:00 hours over the sea.
Another alleged UFO was seen on 11 February over Miraflores.
In the city of Manitboa, Canada on the Jackhead Reservation reports have been surfacing of a UFO crash landing into Lake Winnipeg. Recently a call came into Thrid Phase of the Moon reporting this. The man went by the name of Mark. Here is part of the dialogue:
“Apparently a disc shaped craft was seen crashing through the ice on the lake, at least one person got photographic evidence but has since been detained by the Canadian military. UFO crash in rural Manitoba Canada: A UFO crash landed into a frozen lake within the last 24 hours on a Indian reservation in rural Manitoba. I have contact with a former resident of the reservation and their family still lives on the reservation and informed them about the situation this evening.
I have also been informed that nobody is allowed to leave or enter the reservation at this time and that the military has been going door to door talking with residents. They are telling the residents that they are conducting emergency training exercises, but there has been an extreme cold front in Manitoba over the last 2 days and it is extremely dangerous to spend time outdoors for any period.
The military has moved in all their equipment effectively blocking any view of what may have crashed into the water or what they are doing there, but I’m sure they are recovering the evidence.
I will get back in touch with in a few hours, I was told the name of the reservation but it was very long and hard to pronounce, I will get the exact spelling of the reservation in a few hours when I meet with my contact and I will forward any new information over.”Mark
Here is the full video dialogue between Third Phase and Mark (the aircraft in the video is not the aircraft they are talking about, it’s just pictured during conversation)
“UFO crash reported on the Jackhead reserve in Manitoba, Canada apparently the Canadian Military have vehicles lined up on north Shore. ..they are threatening anybody who tries to take pics….lots of eye witnesses…Thur is round object being hauled across the lake being pulled by snow mobiles and bombardier.”
Furthermore many on Twitter and Facebook were posting pictures like these:
Despite the outcry from citizens in the area about the crashed UFO and reports of military forces using snowmobiles to drag away a large disc, the Canadian Forces are claiming this is all just one big military training exercise training search and rescue how to deal with a plan crash in the Arctic.
According to Lt.-Col. Paul Davies, commanding officer of 38 Territorial Battalion Group in Canada, which is involved in an Arctic Response Company Group training exercise on Lake Winnipeg, reported this to CBC News:
“There’s no aliens, just my friends in the air force who are out there helping us on this exercise…I have the commander of that air force contingent sitting right beside me and, you know, he assures us that that was not a UFO, but that was him.”
The trouble with this statement is the Canadian Forces are refusing to show the supposed “Military craft” to the public. If this is a training exercise why not display the craft to stop the talk about it being a UFO?
Third Phase of the Moon is also reporting that they have an image of this craft sent in by viewers however, no photographs have surfaced as of yet. Here is that breaking report:
In the event Third Phase Of The Moon releases this photo I will display it here for you to see.
That said, I guess the ultimate decision is up to you. Do you believe this is another UFO coverup like what happened in Roswell, New Mexico? Or is this just some military training exercise?

I was up and out of the room early today. I spent a majority of the morning making appointments with various International UFO Congress (IUFOC) 2015 speakers, guests and notables for on camera interviews. I’m proud to say I’ve amassed a nice list. I managed a few quick impromptu interviews; one was with Nuclear Physicist and UFO Researcher Stanton Friedman.
In addition to Mr. Friedman, I had the pleasure to do another impromptu with Craig Campobasso, who’s a professional casting director in his day job and vocationally an indie documentary filmmaker.
Around lunch time I had the pleasure to do a long form video interview with Pat Frascogna, Esq. He’s the attorney for the former Air Force vets Jim Penniston and John Burroughs. The two former airmen were among the first on the scene at the well-known December 1980 Rendlesham Forest incident. John Burroughs is attending IUFOC 2015 and I spoke to him late this afternoon and he’s promised me an interview sometime on Saturday.
At 2 p.m. I was interviewed by NBCNews.com for both a news piece and for a documentary they are producing. I spent the rest of the afternoon video interviewing various UFO notables in our suite. I’ll be sharing some those snippets in the weeks ahead.
This evening at the IUFOC 2015 Film Festival, I attended the premier of Travis – The True Story of Travis Walton. The documentary was eye opening and as Mr. Walton told me yesterday: “An effort to set the record straight.”
On Saturday the serious big names of the UFO conference will take the stage. I’ll report all the color on Sunday.
(N.Morgan) A mysterious sphere like object has been seen flying in the skies over South Carolina, Greene County. Is this object a UFO or something more mundane? The anomaly which was snapped by local resident Stephanie Davenport appears to show a huge circular object with six possible lights attached to its body.
“I originally thought it was the moon, but when I zoomed in on my pictured it clearly wasn’t. It is round and looked to have lights on it.”
Davenport said she consulted someone who might have the answer: a family member who works for NASA.
According to Davenport, this was what he wrote back, “I think those dots are just pixels in your camera CCD that are over exposed. They are too orderly to be sun spots. Nothing to get excited about.”
Still, she’s not quite ready to accept that explanation.

She postulates that some of the off-world visitors may be trying to help humanity deal with other malevolent ETs that want to enslave the entire planet and are also in a desperate search to save their own dying species!
In a stunning revelation based on years of abductee testimony, she asserts that the aliens possess ET RESURRECTION Technology and that in their experiments of re-animating human life, they are seeking to help human souls master the consciousness of inter-dimensional travel and to stop us from completely destroying the delicate balance between worlds, dimensions and timelines.
She goes further and reveals that in ancient times humankind was improved through DNA genetic engineering by an interstellar race of Anunnaki space travelers that wanted to use them for slave labor but that two ET factions arose and battled over the future plight of the emerging Homo sapien and that the battle is raging on even now!
Howe recalls her rise to prominence as a young reporter covering the wave of cattle mutilations across the country and making the documentary “A Strange Harvest.” She recalls her personal struggle of fighting desperately to get the truth out about UFO encounters that quickly made her a target of intelligence surveillance by covert groups seeking to keep the truth on the ET reality hidden.
She also looks at the dark and foreboding trends of government suppression of the truth about UFOs and the erosion of public trust in the political leadership that is acting like puppets being run by a small group of elites that are hoarding reverse-engineered advanced alien technology and conspire to use it for global military supremacy.
Riveting, controversial, eye-opening, unnerving and overflowing with shocking revelations that have existential implications for the human race, this is the Linda Moulton Howe interview you’ve been waiting for!
Bob Lazar is a physicist who worked at the secret military installation S-4, near Area 51 in Nevada. In this excerpt from his famous interview in 1991, Lazar discusses the science behind the UFOs that we see so often in our skies.

Daily 2 Cents: Black Disc Appeared After 2013 Bilderberg Event -- Huge UFO Over Hillsboro, Ohio -- International UFO Congress Lands in Phoenix
Daily 2 Cents: Black Disc Appeared After 2013 Bilderberg Event -- Huge UFO Over Hillsboro, Ohio -- International UFO Congress Lands in Phoenix
Black disc with bright aura appeared after Bilderberg event
Watford, GB - 6/10/2013: The reasons I waited two years before coming out with my story is that I thought my sighting was a common one. After searching online and looking at many of the pictures I realized my sighting can be absolutely counted in the top five per cent for clarity and for the fact that certainly what I saw couldn't be confused with anything I knew.
Let's start from the beginning: at the time I was living in the North of Watford near a hotel called Grove and where from the sixth to the ninth of June 2013 it was held the Bilderberg group meeting, a closed-door gathering where prime ministers and tycoons meet every year. I had never seen before such a high level of security and hundreds of police men gathered from all around England to patrol the area. I remember an helicopter day and night flying over the area, even weeks before. A metallic fence was built all around the hotel and an entire road was closed, forcing the people living there to go to work with the passport.
When the gathering finished all the security shutdown completely in just few hours. It was one of two days after the end of the Bilderberg that I had my sighting. It was about ten o'clock in the evening, and the bedroom's window, facing the other way of the hotel, was open. A light brighter than the stars captured my attention and I started looking more closely to try to figure out what it was. Then the light became brighter and brighter, moving toward me, until I clearly recognized a disc shaped object completely black with the light all around. I couldn't explain how the object could still be so dark, when it was completely sorrounded by a light. It was like if the center of the object was not emitting any lights and that didn't make any sense to me.
But even before thinking this, my first thought was: then they really exist! And they are really like they have always been described!
I tried to reach out my phone with the eyes fixed on the object. But I didn't want to loose any seconds of a so important moment, and then when it started moving away on my right I realized it was too late for a shoot. It drifted away slowly and it took more than 30 seconds to disappear.
When it was closer, I didn't hear any sounds coming from the object, but the details were so clear that if it had been an airplane I could have clearly seen the windows. However the shape was solid black and I could only recognize it because of the bright light around. It was like a disc with a sort of bump along the lower side and a dome on the top of it.
Afterwards I thought it could have been a drone, considering that the Bilderberg was held the days before. I googled extensively about all the types of drones, but I couldn't find any that could explain my sighting. I also couldn't find any reports in the local news. However when I searched in Youtube words like "Bilderberg", "Watford" and "ufo" I could find a video about drones. So it looked like drones were deployed over the area, but they were so different from what I saw that I simply ignored those videos.
Now I often feel angry for the biggest error in my life: not having been able to take a picture of what I saw that day, and for not being able to talk about it without being considered crazy.
I hope someone can give me some more information about similar sighting. I'm not interested in other types of ufos, lights, strange objects. I wanna only have some more context about that particular kind of disc shaped black objects. - MUFON CMS
UFO investigator David Garrison forwarded this post from one of his readers:
"Last night (2/18) while in town (Hillsboro, Ohio). We were leaving and it was dark, after 9pm. We were at the light and I saw something above the trees to my left and looked and realized they were square lights, but too big to be a plane. I asked Robert, "What is that?" When he looked the bottom part of whatever it was came down below the skyline and this was a long bar type thing with huge silver lights on it. Ultimately the object was probably (from ground site and so on) 200 feet in length. The width? Not sure about that.
Flat, lights at both ends and we both believe that we could see a silhouette on each side of the width of it."
NOTE: Any follow-up information would be appreciated. Lon
UPDATE: UFO Over Oregon Highway Was Only Perimeter Lighting
Portland, Oregon - 2/17/2015: We were driving from Portland to my son's house and saw several arching lights in the shape of a disc. We stopped to take pictures of the unmoving craft it sat there as we watched it hovering. Amazed at the size of the ship we had to stop and take a better look. It didn't move an inch even after we left back to on the road to Lewiston.
Location: Next to exit 25 eastbound - MUFON CMS
NOTE: Seems to be in the vicinity of Rooster Rock State Park along the Columbia River...Lon
UPDATE: I received this email from a reader:
The UFO reported over Rooster Rock is simply the overlook on top that has perimeter lighting around the edge of the parking lot. It looks like a huge UFO from the freeway to anyone who is unfamiliar with it. I've seen it many times myself and marveled at how spooky it appears in the darkness. Randy
The government's massive cover up of the existence of extraterrestrial life can be vexing to believers, but once a year dozens have the opportunity to gather near a Phoenix-area resort where they can discuss the "cosmic Watergate" in peace.
That time arrived with little fanfare Wednesday morning with the opening of the International UFO Congress and, as always, an opportunity for believers to meet with a hypnotherapist to recount their experiences of alien abduction and rehabilitation.
"It gives people the opportunity to talk about their abduction experiences without fear of ridicule," said hypnotherapist Yvonne Smith said.
There will be no ridicule at the We-Ko-Pa Resort near Fort McDowell Casino, said Alejandro Rojas, one of the event organizers, because the International UFO Congress is dedicated to disseminating information about UFO mythology.
The International UFO Congress was established in 1991 and held annual conferences in Laughlin, Nev., until 2011 when it moved to the Phoenix area, Rojas said. The event continues to feature speakers, panels and Smith's popular therapy sessions where survivors can talk openly about their alien encounters.
Smith said many of the people she speaks with have symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and are traumatized from the event they experienced.
"Most often people just want to know what happened to them," Smith said. "They ask if they are crazy or if it was all a dream."
Conference attendee Jeanne Madden said she was visited by an "entity" multiple times since 1995.
"It's happened about 15 to 20 times," Madden said. "In 1995, I was taken from my bedroom at night. I remember being on tables and seeing a tractor beam light at the foot of my bed."
"I like to think they were helping me on some level," Madden said, "I believe I have an implant. They shoved an instrument up my nose and stapled something in my head."
“I like to think they were helping me on some level. I believe I have an implant. They shoved an instrument up my nose and stapled something in my head.” Jeanne Madden Madden said she was frightened after she was first visited because it was "beyond reality" but said that an event such as the conference would have helped her.
"It would've helped having something like this to listen to other people who have similar stories to know you aren't crazy," Madden said.
Everyone told Travis Walton he was crazy after he said he was taken from a wooded area in northern Arizona and held for five days by alien life forms.
"I was hit by a blast of energy," said Walton, author of "Fire in the Sky" and "The Walton Experience".
"I remember being on board the craft and in pain, I didn't know where I was," Walton said. "I saw creatures and flipped out ... In hindsight I realize they were trying to revive me."
Walton described the creatures as being hairless, big-eyed and less than four feet tall. Statues fitting this exact description were littered about the conference.
Those sorts of descriptions are common, as are the government's efforts to cover up the existence of extraterrestrial beings said Stanton Friedman, a nuclear physicist who was selling copies of his books detailing the government's plot.
"Secrets are kept by security clearance and need-to-know basis," Friedman said.
Friedman, 80, said he has been giving lectures and writing books for years because he said the inaccuracies in Project Blue Book, a study by the United States Air Force about UFOs, enraged him and from there he found an interest and a passion for the subject.
Project Blue Book, which was declassified last month, did nothing to quell true believers' convictions at the event on Wednesday as they traipsed through a room full of booths with books detailing the stories of those who had been abducted by aliens and listened intently to speakers.
Derrel Sims recounted his experience with aliens at the conference and said that he, like Walton, saw small creatures with big, black eyes.
Sims, a private investigator, was at a vendor booth filled with paraphernalia of extraterrestrial items that had been removed from people on different occasions.
Sims, a self-described "former CIA employee", said his purpose is to find physical evidence of alleged human and alien contact after he and his son were both visited by "entities".
"I remember seeing a pure white body in my room," Sims said. "It was skinny and spindly. I thought he was going to bump into the wall and he heard me thinking that because he turned around and looked at me."
Sims said his crusade for finding proof truly began when his son was visited when he was 6 years old.
"I was within 18 inches of one once," Sims said. "I am looking for DNA evidence."
Sims said he has encountered various people with credible stories and physical proof, including three NASA employees and a district attorney.
Sims said the district attorney was abducted with his wife at 11:29 p.m. and has three hours of time he cannot account for.
Sims then pulled up a watch he said was the district attorney's at the time of the abduction and showed that the time was frozen on 11:29 p.m..
The watch was also melted from the inside, Sims said.
Sims will be a speaker Thursday at the event where he said he will tell stories and show his evidence.
The International UFO Congress lasts through Sunday, Feb. 22 and has different panels, speakers and films each day.
Registration for the event has ended online, but the vendor booths are free and open to the public. -AZCentral

Er zijn wel degelijk buitenaardsen op de Zuidpool...
Er zijn wel degelijk buitenaardsen op de Zuidpool...
Getuigenissen van voormalig Amerikaans luchtmachtpersoneel kan heel waardevol zijn, zeker als ze jarenlang actief geweest zijn in Antartica.
“Na deze trip kregen we een briefing van enkele “spooks” (geheimagenten) uit Washington en die vertelden ons dat we tegen niemand mochten zeggen wat we hadden gezien toen we over dat gebied vlogen”.
Wanneer voormalig luchtmachtpersoneel hun mond open doet, is dat meestal nadat ze zijn gepensioneerd. Zo is dat ook het geval met Brian, een boordwerktuigkundige die 20 jaar lang over alle gebieden van Antarctica heeft gevlogen.
Hij vloog in de jaren 1983 tot 1997 op vrachtvliegtuigen en voerde ook reddingsvluchten uit in Antarctica. Tijdens zijn werkzaamheden zag hij diverse malen zilverkleurige schijven in de lucht rondvliegen.
Hij en de rest van de bemanning zagen ook een groot gat in het ijs, slechts enkele kilometers verwijderd van de geografische zuidpool. Dit was formeel een no fly zone, maar vanwege een medische situatie vlogen ze er toch binnen en zagen wat ze eigenlijk niet zouden mogen zien:
Een ingang naar een gecombineerde menselijk/buitenaardse basis die zich onder het ijs bevond. Bij een kamp in de buurt van Marie Byrd Land verdwenen een dozijn wetenschappers om twee weken later weer op te duiken en Brian’s vliegtuig opdracht kreeg hen op te halen. Volgens Brian wilden ze niet praten en zagen hun gezichten er heel erg angstig uit.
Er werd de bemanning van het vliegtuig diverse keren op het hart gedrukt om niet te praten over hun ervaringen. Om een of andere reden werd Brian nooit gevraagd om een geheimhoudingsverklaring te tekenen. Dat is de reden dat nu hij met pensioen is, hij zijn kennis over dat er hier buitenaardsen op deze planeet actief zijn, wil delen.
Getuigenverklaring:
Ik ben een gepensioneerde boordwerktuigkundige en heb 20 jaar gevlogen bij de Amerikaanse marine op de LC130. In 1997 ben ik met pensioen gegaan en heb al langere tijd mijn verhaal willen doen over mijn ervaringen op Antarctica. Ervaringen met vliegende objecten waarvan men mij vertelde dat ik er niet over mocht praten.
Gedurende een deel van mijn 20 jaar dienst bij de Marine was ik onderdeel van een squadron met de naam Antarctic Development Squadron Six of VXE-6 zoals het ook wel werd genoemd. Ik deed hier dienst van ongeveer 1983 totdat ik in 1997 met pensioen ging.
In mijn capaciteit als boordwerktuigkundige heb ik meer dan 4.000 uur gevlogen. Ik heb dingen gezien op Antarctica die de meeste mensen zich niet voor kunnen stellen. Het land daar lijkt meer buitenaards dan aards. We begonnen onze missies daar ieder jaar eind september en deze duurden tot eind februari.
Dit was het zomerseizoen waar het meeste wetenschappelijke werk werd gedaan vanwege de hogere temperaturen en omdat er 24 uur daglicht is.
Tijdens mijn tijd bij het squadron heb ik over bijna ieder deel van het continent gevlogen, inclusief meer dan 300 keer over de zuidpool.
Wij vlogen meestal vanaf McMurdo Station wat ongeveer 3,5 uur vliegen is verwijderd van het station op de Zuidpool. Tussen deze beide bases is een bergketen die wordt genoemd de Trans Antarctics.
Wij vlogen gemiddeld op een hoogte tussen de 25.000 en 35.000 voet (rond de 10km) en hadden goed uitzicht op de bergketen. Diverse keren zag onze bemanning objecten in de lucht heen en weer schieten over de bergtoppen. Bijna iedere keer vlogen ze in ongeveer hetzelfde gebied. Het is natuurlijk heel ongebruikelijk dat daar iets vliegt, want de enige vliegtuigen die in dat gebied vlogen waren die van ons squadron. En bovendien wist ieder vliegtuig de positie van de ander.
Ook uniek van de zuidpoolbasis was dat ons vliegtuig niet over een bepaald gebied mocht vliegen, zo’n 8 kilometer er vandaan. De reden die ons werd gegeven was dat zich daar een kamp bevond waar men luchtmonsters nam.
Wij geloofden dit niet zo erg want twee verschillende keren moesten we over dit gebied vliegen. Eén keer was vanwege een medische evacuatie van het Australische Davis Camp. Dit bevond zich aan de andere kant van het continent en we moesten tanken op de zuidpoolbasis en de directe koers naar Davis Camp voerde ons precies over het kamp waar zogenaamd de luchtmonsters werden genomen.
Toen we over dit kamp vlogen zagen we een heel erg groot gat dat onder het ijs verdween. Het was zo groot dat we gemakkelijk onze LC130 erin hadden kunnen vliegen.
Na deze trip kregen we een briefing van enkele “spooks” (geheimagenten) uit Washington en die vertelden ons dat we tegen niemand mochten zeggen wat we hadden gezien toen we over dat gebied vlogen.
De tweede keer dat we dicht in de buurt van het kamp kwamen waar “luchtmonsters” werden genomen, was toen we problemen hadden met wat navigatie-instrumenten waardoor we eigenlijk per ongeluk boven dat gebied terechtkwamen. We kregen opdracht daar onmiddellijk weg te gaan en ons te melden bij de commandant van de basis.
Daar kregen we uiteraard de wind van voren en voor straf moesten we een maand lang een andere route vliegen.
Er waren talloze andere keren dat we dingen zagen die niet normaal waren. Op een keer dropten we wetenschappers bij een buitenkamp in de buurt van Marie Byrd Land. Vervolgens was er twee weken lang geen enkele communicatie met de groep. Onze bemanning vloog terug naar het kamp om te kijken of alles in orde was.
We troffen daar niemand aan, maar ook geen sporen van een misdaad of iets dergelijks. De radio werkte prima toen we die uitprobeerden. We verlieten het kamp en vlogen terug naar McMurdo volgens de opdracht van onze commandant.
Een week later waren de wetenschappers teruggekeerd in het kamp en hadden via de radio gevraagd of ze opgepikt kon worden. Wij kregen deze opdracht omdat wij ze ook gedropt hadden en bekend waren met de omgeving.
Tijdens de vlucht terug weigerden de wetenschappers om met de bemanning te praten en naar mijn mening zagen ze er heel angstig uit. Zodra we in McMurdo waren geland, werden de wetenschappers overgeheveld in een ander toestel en overgebracht naar Christchurch in Nieuw Zeeland.
De uitrusting die we hadden meegenomen uit het kamp werd in quarantaine geplaatst en daarna getransporteerd naar Amerika, vergezeld van dezelfde spooks die ons hadden ondervraagd.
Ik kan nog heel lang doorgaan over dingen en situaties die ik heb geobserveerd gedurende mijn tijd bij het VXE-6 squadron. In gesprekken van bemanningen onderling was iedereen het er over eens dat er zich een UFO-basis op de zuidpool bevindt. Sommigen hadden gesprekken opgevangen van wetenschappers die op de zuidpool samenwerkten met buitenaardsen in dat grote gat wat ons verkocht werd als een faciliteit voor het nemen van luchtmonsters.
De wereldbevolking lijkt het allemaal maar niets bijzonders te vinden dat er een stroom UFO’s de Popocatépetl vulkaan in Mexico in en uit vliegen.
De Azteken wisten wel beter want wat zij de “Rokende Berg” noemden was de vulkaan waarin de Goden woonden.
Update: 21 februari 2015
Een dag nadat Scott Waring een sigaarvormige UFO wist te “vangen” boven de krater van de Popocatépetl vulkaan, is er een tweede spotter die eveneens succes heeft.
Dit keer is het de bekende Youtubegebruiker Streetcap1 die ’s nachts boven de vulkaan een verlicht object zag.
Het zag er zo uit:
We hebben hier niet te maken met nepopnames, gemaakt door mensen die erop uit zijn om de boel te misleiden, maar met beelden gemaakt door webcams, geïnstalleerd door de Mexicaanse overheid.
Vreemde, verlichte objecten boven de krater van de Popocatépetl vulkaan. Eigenlijk zou dit alle krantenkoppen ter wereld moeten halen.
Origineel artikel: 17 februari 2015
Toen de Spanjaarden onder leiding van Herman Cortez aan het begin van de zestiende eeuw Mexico veroverde op de Azteken, kwamen ze tot de ontdekking dat er twee bergen waren die heel speciaal waren voor het verslagen volk.
Twee bergen die zelfs in de maand augustus nog bedekt waren met sneeuw en waarvan de belangrijkste de “De Rokende Berg” werd genoemd welke dezelfde is als de Popocatépetl vulkaan.
Deze en de iets noordelijker gelegen Iztaccíhuatl waren heilig voor de Azteken. Dat was glashelder voor de Spaanse veroveraars.
Een en ander werd opgetekend door een Franciscaanse monnik die eveneens constateerde dat de Azteken regelmatig pelgrimstochten naar de toppen ondernamen om (menselijke) offers te brengen aan de Goden. Het is nooit duidelijk geworden welke Goden dat nu precies waren.
Wanneer we kijken naar wat er nu gebeurt bij de Popocatépetl dan wordt alles een stuk duidelijker. We zien op regelmatige basis UFO’s verdwijnen in de krater van de vulkaan. Dit is in lijn is met wat de Azteken zeiden, namelijk dat de Goden in de berg woonden.
Voor hen was het duidelijk. De Popocatépetl was heilig omdat dit de berg was waar de Goden in woonden. Tot op de dag van vandaag wonen diezelfde Goden daar nog steeds.
De UFO’s die verdwijnen in de vulkaan zijn meestal de grote sigaarvormige en ook nu is er weer een waargenomen vlakbij de krater.
Of de Azteken contact hadden met deze Goden/buitenaardsen is niet duidelijk. Wel dat ze er zodanig veel ontzag voor hadden dat ze zelfs bereid waren om (menselijke) offers te brengen.
Erich von Dänichen heeft in deze context decennia geleden een boek geschreven met de titel "Waren de Goden Kosmonauten".
Er staan honderden argumenten in om zijn redenering te staven. Von Däniken gaat ervan uit dat ruimtereizigers van een andere planeet onze planeet aarde hebben bezocht en op die manier de mens heeft gecreëerd. De aanwijzingen daarvoor zijn niet alleen te vinden in de archeologie maar ook in de scheppingsverhalen van de Soemeriërs, UFO-achtige voorwerpen op petroglyphen; rotstekeningen uit de steentijd, UFO's op de Egyptische en Soemerische hiëroglyphen, Indiase en Tibetaanse boeken met een handleiding voor het bouwen van een ruimteschip voor andere sterrenstelsels, en nog veel meer.
According to many esoteric sources, the first civilization was created before 78.000 years in the giant continent known as Mu or Lemuria and lasted surprisingly 52.000 years. It is said that it was destroyed by earthquakes from a pole shift that took place 26.000 years ago, or about 24,000 BC. Other sources say it was destroyed because of a massive nuclear war of the time...
Yonaguni - Remains of Lemuria?
Mu did not reach as high a technology, supposedly, as other later civilizations, it is said however that it reached a progressive technology, mainly in building lasting megalithic buildings that can withstand earthquakes. However, the greatest achievement of Mu it is said to be the government's science.
Map from1926, showing Lemuria.
We assume that there was a language and a government. Education was the key to the success of the Empire, and because every citizen was aware of the laws of the universe and was given full training in a profession or an art, there was great economic prosperity.
The education of a child was compulsory until the age of 21 so that it has the right to attend the school of civil rights. This period lasted seven years; so the earliest age that one could become a citizen of the empire was 28.
2. Ancient Atlantis
It is said that when the continent of Mu sank, the world's oceans dropped dramatically since the water was pushed towards the new Atlantic basin. The small islands that were in the Atlantic during the culture of Lemuria came up and dried up because of the retreat of the ocean. The new area emerged joined the Archipelagos Poseid of the Atlantic ocean, thus creating a small continent.
This continent is now called Atlantis by historians, despite the fact that her real name was Poseidonia.
It is believed that Atlantis lifted technology at very high levels, far more than what currently exists on our planet. In the book 'A Dweller On two Planets' (A resident in two planets), which was first dictated by the Tibetan Phylos to a young Californian named Frederick Spencer Oliver in 1884, as well as continuity in 1940, 'An Earth Dweller Returns' (An earthly returns), are mentioned for such inventions and devices as air conditioners in order to combat deadly and destructive gases - airless cylinder lamps (circular celestial bodies without atmosphere), crystal enlightened conductors by the dark forces; electronic soldiers, weapons that work with electricity like thrust (the rail-gun is similar, and very new invention) unidirectional transfer; water Generator, a tool to condense water from the atmosphere; and the Vailx, an aerial ship ruled by the forces of hovering and repulsion.
The visionary, Edgar Cayce, in a reading spoke of the use of airplanes and of crystals or powder used for energy and similar applications. It also talks about the abuse of the power and warnings of disasters to come.
Of course, the only original - or known - reference in Atlantis, we find by the great Greek philosopher Solon when he visited Egypt and learn from the egyptian priests the past story of Atlantis, as written by his student Platon
in his book "Timaeus and Critias".
At the bottom of Bermuda was found a giant sunken city with glass pyramids. Are they remains of Atlantis?
3. The empire of Rama in India
Fortunately, the ancient books about the Rama Empire of India have been preserved, unlike those of China, Egypt, Central America, Peru. Many of these ancient nations are now either deserted areas, who have drowned in dense vegetation or literally submerged in a ocean bottom. But India, despite the destruction of wars and invasions, managed to maintain a large part of her ancient history.
For a long time, the pre-Hindu Indus civilization wasn't old, dating from 500 BC, just 200 years before the invasion of Alexander the Great on the continent. In the last century, however, the extremely sophisticated cities Mohenjo Daro (Hill of the Dead) and Harappa were discovered in the Indus Valley which today is Pakistan.
The discovery of these cities forced the archaeologists to date the beginning of the Indian civilization thousands of years before. A question for today's researchers is that the cities were very advanced and that made them pioneers archaeologists to believe that it was considered as a whole before built: an excellent early example of town planning.) Something even more remarkable is that the system plumbing sewer along the big city is exceeds that found in Pakistan, India and most Asian countries today.
4. The Osirian civilization of the Mediterranean
It is said that at the time of Atlantis and Rama, the Mediterranean was a large and fertile valley. This ancient civilization, pre-dating dynastic Egypt, was known as the Osirian civilization. The River Nile came from Africa, as today, and was called the River Stix. However, instead of flowing into the Mediterranean in the Nile Delta in northern Egypt, it continued in the valley, and then went around to the West to be poured in the deepest part of the Mediterranean Valley where had been created a large lake and then continued between Malta and Sicily and south of Sardinia into the Atlantic at Gibraltar (columns of Hercules).
When Atlantis was destroyed in a cataclysmic confusion, this cataclysmic change in the Atlantic slowly filled the Mediterranean Basin, destroying the Osirian large cities and forcing them to flee to higher ground.
This theory helps explain the strange megalithic monuments found along the Mediterranean.
Malta
It is an archaeological fact that there are over 200 known sunken cities in the Mediterranean. The Egyptian civilization, along with the Minoan and Mycenaean in Crete and Greece are, in theory, remnants of this great, ancient culture. This civilization built huge earthquake-proof megalithic structures and had electricity and other conveniences common during the era of Atlantis.
As in Atlantis and Rama, they had airships and other methods of transport, often electrical. The bizarre Cart tracks in Malta, going up into the hills and under water, can be part of some ancient Osirian tram-line, possibly carrying quarried stone to cities that are now sunken.
Probably the best example of the high technology of the Osirianon is the remarkable platform (dock) found in Ba'albek, Lebanon. The main platform is composed of the largest hewn rocks in the world, the known squared stones (ashlars) of Ba'albek. Some of the typical rocks are 82 feet long and 15 feet thick and it has been estimated to weigh 1.200 to 1.500 tons each!
5. The Uiger culture of the Gobi desert
It is said that many ancient cities of the Uiger cultureof the Gobi desert existed at the time of Atlantis and Rama. Though the Gobi is now a hot land-licked desert, these cities were ocean ports. Edgar Cayce said at some point that the lifts will be discovered in a lost city in the Gobi desert, and since this is not yet the case, is not excluded.
The Vimanas and other progressive devices is said they were used in the area Uiger, and the famous Russian explorer Nicholas Roerich reported seeing a flying disc over northern Tibet in the 30s. Maybe the vessel was an ancient Vimana that came from a city that still uses the Uiger technology that exists in Northern Tibet in the Gobi Desert.
Importantly, it is claimed that the Elders of Lemuria, known as the 13th School, moved their headquarters before the flood on the uninhabited plateau of Central Asia that we now call Tibet. Here supposedly they founded a library and a school known as 'The Great White Brotherhood'.
For example, the great Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu, born in 604 BC, often spoke of ancient Lords (Ancient Masters) and their deep wisdom. He wrote the famous book 'Tao Te Ching', probably the most popular book ever written in Chinese. When he finally left China, near the end of a very long life, he traveled westward in the legendary land of Hsi Wang Mu. According to the ancient Chinese, it was the headquarters of the Ancient Masters (Ancient Ones). Could this have been the Great White Brotherhood and the 13th School of Lemuria?
6. Tiahuanaco
As in Lemuria and Atlantis, constructions in South America had megalithic proportions designed with polygonal techniques to make massive anti seismic walls. The durability of the walls during the earthquakes was significant throughout the Ring-of-Fire, ancient Lemuria.
The houses and community buildings were made of megaliths. Because of the high regard that showed the culture for the welfare of the future generations and the importance given on gradual, they maintained the development of society, and created structures that lasted for thousands of years. A house that will be built from a cement, wood and plaster walls will last one hundred years or so, if maintained. Witnesses are the megalithic constructions of Egypt, Malta, Peru.
These buildings still exist today. In Cuzco, the ancient capital of Peru, probably built before the Incas, and is still reside today after thousands of years. Indeed, most of the buildings in the center of Cuzco today have walls that are hundreds of years old (and more modern buildings built by the Spaniards already crumbling).
Just a few miles east of Cuzco there are the ruins of Puma Punku, high in the Altiplano of Bolivia. The ruins of Puma Punku, about a mile from a the famous ruins of Tiahuanaco, are massive megalithic constructions tossed about (dissolved) as bricks from a game. What cataclysmic upheaval could have made such a thing? This is the kind of megalithic construction that was to last for thousands of years, but the 100 tons stones dissolved into pieces by powerful geological forces.
It seems that the South American continent suddenly and violently was pushed upwards during a flood, probably a shift of the pole. A former sea level can be seen today at 13,000 feet in the Andes Mountains. Possible evidence for this scenario is that many fossils of the ocean can be found near Lake Titicaca.
The lake is inhabited by the only known freshwater seahorses.
7. The Mayans
The Mayan pyramids extend from Central America up to the Indonesian islands of Java. The pyramid of Sukuh, on the slope of Mount Lawu near Sura-karta in central Java is an amazing temple with a stone column and a pyramid with graduations that are comparable with any of them in the Central American jungle. The pyramid is substantially identical to the pyramids found in ancient Mayans region at Uaxactun, near Tikal.

The ancient Mayans were great astronomers and mathematicians while their rural towns lived in harmony with the earth. They built canals and hydroponic garden cities throughout the ancient Yucatan Peninsula. Edgar Cayce mentions the Maya and their technology in a reading: 'As description for the construction of the stone: we find that it was a large cylindrical glass (as we would say today) cut with diamonds in such a way that the leading stone at the top gathered the power or force collected between the end of the cylinder and the top stone. As noted, the points on the earth, where the construction method is the same, are three, as it is today: the submerged part of Atlantis, or Posidonia, where a portion of the temples may still be found under the mud of so many years from a the sea water, close to what is known as Bimini, in the Florida coast...'
The Temple of Inscriptions at Palenque, and The Hall of Records where the Mayan calendar was found.
It is believed that somewhere in the Mayan region is an ancient Hall of Records, possibly under a pyramid complex, in an underground tunnel and chamber system. Some sources say that this treasure of ancient knowledge is kept in quartz crystals that are of exceptional quality and have the ability to hold large amounts of information in a similar way as a modern CD.
8. Ancient China
Ancient China, known as Han China, is said to have originated, like all cultures, from the huge continent of the Pacific, Lemuria. The ancient Chinese are known for their sky-chariots, the geomancy, and the jade manufacturing that they shared with the Mayans. Indeed, the ancient stories of the Chinese and the Mayan appear linked.
Anthropologists give great importance to the case that the Taoist influence came in Central America with the presentation of symbols and repetitive patterns of the dynasty Shang (the Yin-Yang is the best known, but there are many more) and then linking them to known Mayan arts and reliefs. Jade had great importance for the Chinese Shang. So far, the source of jade in China has not been established. Much of this may have come from Central America. Even the source in Central America is a mystery; many ancient jade mines are believed to have not been discovered yet. Anthropologists argue that the traveling of the Chinese, between 500-300 BC, can be combined with the Taoist tradition of magic mushrooms or herbs for longevity.
Very often the ancient Chinese are considered as the creators of each discovery from the toilet paper, the seismic detector, the paper money, cannons, rocket technology, printing methods, and thousands of other clever and high-tech stuff. In 1959 archaeologists in China discovered belt buckles made of aluminum thousands of years ago.

9. Ancient Ethiopia and Israel
From ancient texts such as the Bible and the Book of Ethiopia Kebra Negast, we have tales of the high technology of ancient Ethiopia and Israel. It is said that the temple of Jerusalem was founded on three giant square stones similar to those in Ba'al-bek, in Lebanon.
Today, the honored Solomon's Temple and the Muslim Temple 'Muslim Dome of the Rock' are in this position, whose foundation seems to reach back to the Osirian civilization. Like most later Phoenician constructions, the building of the Temple for the Ark of the Covenant and the temples in Ethiopia are the last of the megalithic constructions. The massive Temple Mount, built by King Solomon in the ruins of an earlier megalithic temple, was built to save the ancient memento known as the Ark of the Covenant.
Ethiopia
The Ark of the Covenant is said to be a box that was an electric generator and had many sacred objects, including a solid gold statue from earlier cultures called the Holy of Holies. This box and the golden statue it is said to have been transferred from the chamber of the King in the Great Pyramid in Egypt by Moses during the period of the mass Exodus.
Many students believe that the Ark of the Covenant, like other ancient artifacts, were essentially electrical devices some of which were worshiped in temples as oracles. The Bible recounts how certain is that unauthorized people who will touch the ark will die from electrocution. 10. The Aroi Sun Kingdom of the Pacific
The last ancient civilization on this list is the virtually unknown ancient culture of the Aroi Sun Kingdom of the Pacific. While the so-called lost continent of Lemuria sank before 24.000 years in a shift of the pole, the Pacific later repopulated by a racial mix of all cultures, from Rama, China, Africa, America.
An advanced island nation, with larger areas of land than is usually in the Pacific grew up around Polynesia, Melanesia and Micronesia. Ancient legends in Polynesia attribute this great civilization in the Aroi Kingdom that existed many thousands of years before the re-discovery of the Pacific by the Europeans. The Aroi created many of the megalithic pyramids, platforms (platforms), arches, roads and statues at every point of the Central Pacific. When some of the more than 400 hills of gravel escavatied in New Caledonia in the 60s, was found with the help of carbon isotope that columns of lime and shells dating from Yale and the Museum of New Caledonia before 5120 BC and 10 950 BC These strange columns you can see in the southern part of New Caledonia and the Isle of Pines.
Isle of Pines, New Caledonia - ancient ruins
According to the islanders of the east side, the statues of the islands walked or floated so they would move by the spiral path of the clock around the island. On the island of Pohnpei, Micronesia, they declare that the stones from the city of the eleven square miles were suspended up to the point.
Pohnpei, Micronesia
The Polynesians of New Zealand, Easter Island, Hawaii and Tahiti believe that their ancestors had the ability to fly and sailed through the air from island to island.
Without doubt the most unusual, official UFO report I ever came across during my time spent digging through the files of the National Archive at Kew, England, surfaced in 1999. It concerns an incident that dated from 1966 and that originated with the British Royal Air Force’s Provost and Security Services – an arm of the RAF that until 1998 had its headquarters at a British RAF base named Rudloe Manor, and that was, for many years, the central hub for classified, official UFO investigations.
In a painstakingly-detailed report, one Corporal R.A. Rickwood, of the P&SS Special Investigation Section, related to his superiors the facts. In fact, so profoundly weird and intriguing is the file, I have presented it below, without edit or interruption:“On 10th November 1966 a telephone message was received from Flight Lieutenant Williams, RAF Shawbury, reporting that a Mrs. Foulkes of [Address of the witness] Shrewsbury, had complained that his daughter had been frightened by an object in the sky whilst she had been driving along the A5 road near Great Ness at 2355 hours on 8th November 1966.“This object had emitted brilliant lights and radiation beams. On arriving home her daughter had been in a distressed condition and she had discovered marks on the car, which she considered were burn marks.
“On 14th November 1966, Miss Diane Foulkes, aged 22 years, a typist employed in Shrewsbury was seen at her home in the presence of her parents. She stated that she had received a letter dated 11th November 1966 from RAF Shawbury signed by a Flight Lieutenant Penny informing her that no service aircraft had been flying in that area at the time of the incident. “She was now satisfied that the incident was in no way connected with the Royal Air Force or the Armed Forces. She then went on to relate her experiences connected with this enquiry.
There had been two similar incidents. The first occurred two years ago in November 1964, when she had been driving from Shrewsbury to her home along the A5 road.“This was at about 0200 hours as she neared the Montford Bridge over the River Severn. Approximately midway between Shrewsbury and Great Ness a brightly lit circular object appeared in the sky above her car. She had been frightened and had accelerated along the road. The object had kept pace with her remaining at the same height until she arrived home. “She had told her mother and father who also watched the object. She described the object as an especially bright light in the sky which remained stationary due west from their home for about half an hour. It had then rapidly diminished in size and they assumed it had accelerated away from them. No sound was heard from the object. The light was yellow in colour and became red as it diminished.
“The second incident occurred on the 8th November 1966 at 2355 hours and again whilst she was returning from Shrewsbury on the same road. The object had again appeared at Montford Bridge but this time it was much lower in the sky and on the north side of the road. On this occasion she could see rays of light shooting from the object which had again appeared to keep station with her car until she arrived home. At one time during the journey the object travelled near her and the rays seemed to come towards the right hand side of her car.
“She felt a bump against that side as if they had struck it. At this moment she felt as if she had received an electric shock and had felt a severe pain in her neck. The left-hand side headlight of the car also went out. This made her extremely frightened. When she got home she felt very ill and had complained to her parents.
“The object again remained stationary in the sky north of her home and had not been seen by her parents. They had noticed it for a short time before going inside her home. There had been no sign of the object on the following morning. Miss Foulkes’ parents confirmed seeing an object in the sky on both occasions as described by their daughter and agreed with her descriptions of these. “Miss Foulkes further stated that she believed that the objects could be associated with a Mr Griffin who lived in the area and who is reputed to have made contact with these objects and actually entered one and met one of the occupants. He is also alleged to make his contacts with them at Montford Bridge. “The local civil police had no information or reports of sightings of objects in the sky. There is no evidence to associate the incidents complained of with the Royal Air Force and the complainant Miss Foulkes is now satisfied that the incidents are unexplainable and are in no way connected with the Armed Forces.” In essence, that is the file.
It is clear from examining its contents that the witness had reported some stunning experiences: “the rays of shooting light” that enveloped her car; the electric shock-like pain that surged through her neck as the vehicle was bathed in the beam of light; the loss of power from the car’s headlights (something that is reported time and again in UFO encounters); and the potentially-worrying fact that the experience had left the witness “very ill.” Perhaps the most significant factor, however, was the reference of the Provost and Security Services to a man in the near vicinity that had reputedly “made contact with these objects and actually entered one and met the occupants.
” Prior to the 1970s, very little exposure was given to so-called alien abduction incidents; however, many of the factors present in the P&SS report lead me to believe that something very strange indeed had taken place in the Great Ness area of Shrewsbury in 1966, and that that “something” was very possibly connected with abduction-like encounters. Oddly, despite the fact thatthe official file on this case was declassified way back in 1999 – and the document at issue has been examined by a handful of UFO researchers since then – it seems that little or no attempt has been made to resolve the case. Perhaps now, with its contents highlighted here at Mysterious Universe, someone will take a fresh look at the case and attempt to resolve the question of what really happened nearly half a century ago on that long gone night at Montford Bridge.
Sovereignty group Lawful Hawaiian Government constructed a UFO landing pad and the so-called Star Visitor Center on a rocky, lava field of Big Island to welcome ET visitors.
Waiting for space alien visitors is perhaps similar to the hope of reinstating the Hawaiian Kingdom of over 120 years ago. However, the Lawful Hawaiian Government made alien welcome pad last year, hoping that it could help advertise its cause.
According to Big Island coordinator, Garry Hoffeld, the idea of creating UFO landing pad is to announce to the world, as well as to the universe, that Hawaii is a neutral country and interested in making peaceful relationships with anyone in the world and even from outside Earth.
It appears that the group wants to let the people in the world know that the UFO landing strip is more a symbolic build than a literal UFO touchdown. The location was chosen for two major reasons; the natural beauty of the place and the proximity to Uncle Robert’s bar. The owner of the restaurant, Hawaiian noble Robert Keliihoomalu, built the E.T.-beckoning spot. Keliihoomalu believes that native Hawaiians were coming from Pleiades descended to Earth.
If aliens were going to visit Earth and make their presence known, hopefully they will realize that Hawaii would be a nice area to hold the welcoming party.
Reusachtige nieuwe telescoop gaat zoeken naar Planeet X
Deze nieuwe telescoop gaat zoeken naar Planeet X
Verrassend veel mensen geloven dat in een verre uithoek van ons zonnestelsel een enorme planeet te vinden is. Deze Planeet X is door sommigen in verband gebracht met vreemde veranderingen in de baan van Uranus en zelfs met het einde van de wereld.
De gevoelige infrarood-ruimtetelescoop WISE heeft vorig jaar duizenden nieuwe rode en bruine dwergsterren ontdekt in de wijde omgeving van de zon, maar vond nul aanwijzingen voor het bestaan van Planeet X. Die bestaat gewoon niet, zo maakte de Amerikaanse ruimtevaartorganisatie NASA bekend. Maar de zoektocht ging door.
In 2022 wordt een nieuwe telescoop in gebruik genomen die ons een definitief antwoord moet gaan geven op de vraag of Planeet X bestaat. De Large Synoptic Survey Telescope, een nieuw instrument dat in Chili wordt gebouwd, kan zoeken naar koelere, grote objecten aan de rand van het zonnestelsel.
Wetenschappers zoals Chad Trujillo van het Gemini-observatorium denken dat er een goede kans is dat een planeet zo groot als de aarde in de donkere ruimte voorbij Pluto kan worden gevonden. “Ik denk dat dit slechts het topje van de ijsberg is,” vertelde hij aan NPR. “Het zal waarschijnlijk een lange tijd duren voordat iemand dingen kan verklaren en de meeste mensen die verklaring accepteren.”
De Large Synoptic Survey Telescope wordt uitgerust met een camera van 3,2 gigapixel. De wetenschappers verwachten ongeveer zes miljoen gigabyte aan data per jaar te produceren. Met de camera willen ze uiterst gedetailleerde beelden maken van het heelal. Die moeten onder andere informatie opleveren over de vorming van sterrenstelsels, exploderende sterren en asteroïden. Daarnaast willen de onderzoekers meer inzicht krijgen in donkere energie en donkere materie.
February 20, 2015- Though they were originally searching for deep sea organisms in January, a group of researchers made a very different discovery. While trawling and taking pictures of the seafloor in tropical Atlantic waters about 5,000-5,500 meters (16,400-18,000 feet) below the surface, the crew discovered their gear was getting caught up on unknown objects.
When the equipment returned to the surface, they were stunned to find that it was actually manganese nodules from a deposit much larger than any previously discovered in that ocean. The joint announcement comes from the University of Hamburg and GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research in Kiel, Germany.
"We did not expect that at this point," lead scientist Colin Devey said in a press release.
Devey’s team suspects that some of these balls (called nodules) can be over 10 million years old, as the largest nodules discovered in the deposit were roughly the size of a bowling ball, though others were as small as a golf ball. While nodule deposits have been found in the Atlantic before, the size of this particular location is quite special.
"This discovery shows us how little we know of the seabed of the abyssal ocean, and how many exciting discoveries are still waiting for us," added Angelika Brandt from the University of Hamburg. "At this station, very few organisms were found in the nets which captured the manganese nodules. It is quite possible that living creatures find the immediate vicinity of the nodules quite inhospitable. The second haul with the epibenthic sled at this station, which sampled over a continuous manganese crust with a thick layer of sediment on top, was quite different. Here the net collected many organisms which we were able to see with the naked eye, and we are already looking forward to the analysis of this sample.”
Because of their impressive age, the researchers will examine the nodules in hopes of finding clues about the Earth in the past, such as indications of changing ocean conditions or even clues about climate. Though the team might not have expected to produce geological specimens during their 42 days at sea, they intend to embrace the nodules, while still proceeding with their original line of research.
"We will continue our planned program. But the samples obtained here will definitely be examined in detail in our land-based laboratories. We are now excited to see what surprises the Atlantic might still hold for us," Devey concluded.

Staart Niburu ons recht in het gezicht?
Staart Niburu ons recht in het gezicht?
Er worden wereldwijd steeds meer foto’s gemaakt waarop niet alleen de zon voor komt, maar ook nog een ander hemellichaam.
Zo is men in de Amerikaanse staat South Carolina verbijsterd over de opnames die door een lokale fotograaf zijn genomen.
Afgelopen zondag, 15 februari, was de Amerikaanse fotografe Stephanie Davenport laat in de middag een aantal landschapsfoto’s aan het maken in de Amerikaanse staat South Carolina.
Ze ziet dichtbij de zon een ander hemellichaam en gaat er vanuit dat dit de maan is.
Toen ze later haar foto’s aan het bekijken was, begon ze te twijfelen. Want op de vreemde planeet die ze had weten vast te leggen, waren een soort lichten te zien.
Aangezien ze nog nooit zoiets had gezien, nam ze contact op met het plaatselijke nieuwskanaal en binnen de kortste keren werden de mysterieuze foto’s van Stephanie door duizenden mensen gedeeld.
Dit ging uiteraard gepaard met het nodige gegiechel en allerlei wilde theorieën. Omdat Stephanie een familielid heeft die bij NASA werkt, had ze ook die gevraagd of deze wist wat het zou kunnen zijn.
Daar kwam wel zo’n knullig antwoord op terug dat dit direct de prullenbak in kon. Het familielid hield het op overbelichte pixels en dat de lichten te ordelijk waren om zonnevlekken te kunnen zijn. Niets aan de hand dus.
Ook voor Stephanie is dat verhaal onzin want ze heeft een foto van het object, genomen vanachter een boom, waarbij takken de zogenaamde overbelichte pixels bedekken. Bovendien heeft hij het over zonnevlekken, terwijl dit dus duidelijk de zon niet is.
Het is ook definitief niet de maan want zoals je op de volgende afbeelding kunt zien, is de afnemende maan op die dag, 15 februari jl, nog slechts een klein schijfje aan de hemel.
Feit is dat niemand nog een verklaring heeft kunnen geven voor dit bijzondere hemellichaam.
Omdat het niet de zon of de maan is, komt uiteraard toch de vraag naar boven of we hier misschien niet te maken hebben met de planeet/ruimteschip Nibiru.
Deze komt tenslotte steeds dichterbij en dus is het ook logisch dat deze steeds vaker zichtbaar wordt.
Ook in ons land worden vreemde foto’s gemaakt, zoals de volgende die ons door een lezer werd gestuurd (dank!) en is geplaatst op de website weerplaza.nl
Ook hier zie je duidelijk een vreemd planetair object boven de zon. Het zou een lensflare kunnen zijn, maar dit beeld lijkt een beetje teveel op de talloze vergelijkbare foto’s die wereldwijd worden gemaakt, waarbij tijdens zonsopgang en -ondergang duidelijk een planeet waar te nemen is, net boven de zon.
Meer aanwijzingen voor (nep) buitenaardse invasie (Video)
Meer aanwijzingen voor (nep) buitenaardse invasie (Video)
Hoe kan het dat mensen die nog nooit iets te maken hebben gehad met buitenaardsen nu ineens vragen beginnen te stellen?
Vragen zoals: “Worden wij voorbereid om hen te accepteren als onze vrienden of misschien zelfs als onze redders?”
Voor velen is de situatie met betrekking tot buitenaardsen uitermate verwarrend. Het is sowieso al moeilijk voor te stellen dat er naast deze aarde nog talloze andere planeten zijn waar ook leven op voorkomt. Daarnaast bovenop dan ook nog de door mensen gemaakte UFO’s en zaken zoals de geheime ruimtevloot.
Wanneer je dan ook een UFO waarneemt, is de grote vraag of je hier te maken hebt met een door mensen gemaakt object of met een door buitenaardsen bestuurd voertuig.
Dan kom je weer snel uit bij de waarschuwing zoals die door Wernher von Braun, vlak voor zijn dood werd afgegeven.
Die luidde dat de door mensen gecreëerde ultieme dreiging voor de mensheid uit de ruimte zou komen en dat dit uiteindelijk de wereld zal verenigen in de New World Order.
Wernher von Braun (1912-1977) was de wellicht meest controversiële raketbouwer ooit. Hij maakte de dodelijke V2-raketten voor Hitler en nadien de ruimtevaartraketten voor de NASA, waarmee onder andere de eerste landing van een mens op de maan werd uitgevoerd.
Ongeveer drie jaar voor zijn dood kwam hij in aanraking met Dr. Carol Rosin. Misschien kreeg hij aan het eind van zijn leven iets van wroeging, want haar vertelde hij een groot aantal geheimen. Om de gigantische kosten en de mega verdiensten voor de ruimtewapensystemen enigszins te rechtvaardigen en de agenda voor de New World Order te promoten, zouden er kunstmatige vijanden worden gecreëerd.
Eerst zou dat Rusland zijn. Daarna de terroristen. Vervolgens de landen in het Midden-Oosten. Dan de laatste troefkaart: Een bedreiging uit de ruimte.
Op zich is bovenstaande niets nieuws, maar wel dat mensen die nog nooit iets te maken hebben gehad met buitenaardsen zich daar nu ook opeens van bewust worden.
Hij vraagt zich in een recent artikel af of wij worden geconditioneerd om te accepteren dat het leven hier op aarde origineel afkomstig is van andere planeten en dat Jezus buitenaards was.
Hij vraagt zich dat niet voor niets af want zoals hij zegt, "overal ter wereld zie je nu artikelen verschijnen over dat Britse wetenschappers hebben geopperd dat het leven hier op aarde wel eens afkomstig zou kunnen zijn van andere planeten".
Verder valt het Michael op, een man die iedere dag “in het nieuws zit”, dat we de laatste tijd worden gebombardeerd met allerlei boodschappen in populaire cultuurevenementen. Dat onze planeet in het verleden in contact heeft gestaan met buitenaardsen en dat dit op het punt staat om weer te gebeuren.
Voor Michael Snyder komt dit toch allemaal een beetje als een schok en het is duidelijk wanneer je zijn artikel leest dat hij het allemaal nog niet echt gelooft en liever wil blijven vasthouden aan de dingen die hem verteld zijn in school en kerk.
Het wordt spannend wanneer juist mensen zoals Michael dit soort vragen beginnen te stellen. Hij schrijft onder andere het volgende op zijn website:
Met ieder jaar dat voorbij gaat, zijn er meer mensen die naar de sterren kijken voor antwoorden op de meest belangrijke vragen waarmee we worden geconfronteerd.
Dankzij de niet aflatende stroom boeken, videospellen, films en televisieprogramma’s zijn er nu wereldwijd honderden miljoenen mensen die verwachten dat buitenaardse levensvormen ieder moment contact met ons kunnen maken.
Dus, worden wij voorbereid om te geloven dat buitenaardsen verantwoordelijk zijn voor het ontstaan van leven op deze planeet?
Worden wij voorbereid om hen te accepteren als onze vrienden of misschien zelfs als onze redders?
Zover zijn we nu al. Nuchtere mensen zoals advocaat Michael Snyder die zich normaal gesproken bewegen in de financiële wereld zijn door alle berichtgeving al zodanig geconditioneerd dat ze het helemaal niet vreemd zouden vinden als er morgen wereldwijd bekendgemaakt zou worden dat de buitenaardsen onze redders zijn en ons zullen helpen om de hele wereld te verenigen.
De timing zou niet slecht zijn. De wereld wordt met de dag onstabieler en de ene crisis is nog niet bezworen of de volgende dient zich alweer aan.
Wanneer iets dergelijks gebeurt dan blijft de grote vraag natuurlijk of we te maken hebben met een nepinvasie zoals Carol Rosin beschrijft in onderstaande video of misschien met het ingrijpen van buitenaardsen, zoals wij in een eerder artikel schreven.
The Rendlesham Forest incident has been dubbed as Britain’s Roswell, which involved a series of strange sightings in December 1980. The event continues to fascinate the UFO and conspiracy worlds. Its popularity is not surprising because many witnesses saw clear lights in the sky and not some vague lights that are common today.
Former Ministry of Defence employee Nick Pope believes that the UFO indeed landed.
A security police commander that time, Sgt Adrian Bustinza, said that he saw a UFO going in and out through trees and hovering at one stage.
In an audio recording, United States Air Force Lieutenant Colonel Charles Halt can be heard saying that they’re looking at the thing from two to three hundred yards away. He compared the thing to an eye winking, and the flash is dazzling to the starscope that it nearly burns their eyes.
Just last January 2015, a dog walker posted a video showing unidentified lights above Rendlesham Forest and a new film about it has recently been released. But what actually took place and are we any closer to solving the mystery after 35 years?
Through the years, it appears that facts have become blurry as new witnesses come forward, and statements change. But what is clearly known is that US military personnel stationed in the area spotted unusual lights over Rendlesham Forest.
Blue, red, orange and white lights were seen by John Burroughs, one of the US military personnel who investigated the area. In Burroughs’ subsequent statement in 1981, he said that together with his supervisor and another individual, they saw lights moving back and then stopping in a bunch of trees. As they hit the ground, the lights started moving back towards the open field. All three of them got up to a fence and saw the lights disappeared.
Jim Penniston, who was the companion of Burroughs into Rendlesham Forest on 26 December, claimed he spotted a craft with hieroglyphic-like characters about 3 metres tall and approximately 3 metres wide at the base. As he moved closer to the craft, he found out that the fabric of the shell was like a smooth, opaque, black glass.
Both Burroughs and Penniston have since suffered from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.
A different set of military personnel encountered the same series of events 2 nights later. Lieutenant Colonel Charles was there to disprove UFO, and alien rumours disperse widely in RAF bases Woodbridge and Bentwaters. Armed with a recording device, Halt produced an audio tape that is now considered as one of the most important pieces of evidence
On the night of December 28, another group of men claimed to have witnessed something strange in Rendlesham Forest. Soldier Larry Warren and Sgt Adrian Bustinza, who were with a number of other military personnel, went towards the field where lights had been spotted on the past two nights.
At the scene, Warren claimed he had seen disaster preparedness officers with Geiger counters and then a small red light appeared going the direction of the coast. Warren described the UFO as fast while moving in a downward arc. Warren also said that the UFO made a stop and hovered approximately 20 feet off the ground. He revealed that it was the same size of American basketball and self-illuminated by slightly red light.
According to Warren, the red light then exploded suddenly, and a craft showed on the forest floor. Warren described it as no windows, no flag or country of origin, and no markings. The shape was clear as a bell, Warren stated.
At this stage, a senior man asked Warren and Bustinza to retreat. Then they claimed to have seen Wing Commander Gordon Williams from a distance approaching the craft and encountering an alien being. Warren described that particular encounter as silent stand-off rather than communication.
Warren returned to the base at around 4:30am, but Bustinza claimed to have observed the craft depart. He said that that the craft took off at around a 45-degree angle, and he may never saw it if he would have blinked. He heard no noise during that strange activity.
New Times UFO writer Cheryl Costa (New York Skies) is corresponding from the International UFO Congress in Arizona. Follow daily updates HERE through Feb. 22.
With all the UFO, alien and alien abduction talk in yesterday’s lecture sessions, here at the International UFO Congress (IUFOC) 2015, it goes without saying I had some really exotic dreams. In any case I got a really good night’s sleep.
With my speaking session behind me, I decided to take the day to conduct short form and long form video interviews in my suite. Of the six interviews I had scheduled, three came to pass and were rewarding experiences. Two had to be rescheduled to Friday due to last minute conflicts with the guest’s calendars. Regretfully, one guest backed out at the last minute just as we were about to conduct the interview on camera. You might ask why?
Well the honest answer is that I wasn’t willing to give that guest a forum for peddling a long verbose pontification on his pet conspiracy theories. I was interested in his personal abduction story only. He set a condition that I had to be in agreement –that I was in sync with his theories; I wasn’t and we promptly parted ways. My New York Skies column is based on a policy of a middle-of-the-road approach to a complex subject matter. What the guest wanted to discuss, was way out of that comfort zone for me.
My first interview was with David McDonald the Director of MUFON, emeritus and still the Director of MUFON international. David shared a number of insights about being a MUFON member and encouraged folks to become member and perhaps train to become certified MUFON Field Investigators. The cost is minor, under $50 and the training can be done online. He also shared with me one of his most interesting field investigations from his own firsthand experience. I’ll share that account after I return from Phoenix.
The second interview I conducted was with Jennifer Stein, who is a documentary filmmaker and she has just completed a “definitive documentary” on the Travis Walton Abduction Case from 1975. Anyone who remembers the 1993 movie thriller “Fire in the Sky,” will remember that it was about Mr. Walton, a lumberjack who was abducted and was missing for five days. Later Walton was given a polygraph test, which he passed with flying colors. The new documentary focuses on the real story verses the slightly fictionalized major motion picture. The documentary is debuting here at the IUFOC 2015 convention on Friday night.
UFO Videos and Sightings: Are they Genuine or Fake?
UFO Videos and Sightings: Are they Genuine or Fake?
(Credit: Reuters ) Incident
Flying Saucers, Strange Shadows in the Sky, or even Strange Marks Left On Fields are stereotypical marks of extra terrestrials. Over the years, there has been countless of alleged UFO sightings especially in the internet. UFO or unidentified flying objects have been a subject of controversy and conspiracy. Nobody actually knows how real they are since almost all traces vanishes throughout the course of history. Though many would find them true others are still shrouded with doubt. So how will you know if you really saw the real thing? Here are some rational incidences.
1. An unidentified flying object was captured on camera by a farmer couple in Oregon in May 1950. The farmer's wife named Evelyn Trent was the first one to see the object before it sped off out their view. The wife described the object as a silvery, metallic disk.
2. The US Air Force has been many times mentioned in UFO sightings since most of the sightings happened near their base. The most popular and mysterious of them all was the Edward's Air Force Base Sighting where a test pilot and astronaut managed to film a classic saucer. It was your typical silver and smooth saucer which was about 30 feet in diameter. It had three legs as a landing gear. However, as he was about to submit the picture, the film vanished.
3. The Piney Woods Sighting was an unforgettable experience to a group of friends who saw a water-tower sized, glowing, diamond shaped object which blocked their way. This experience has brought them trauma emotionally, mentally, and physically due to chemical poisoning in the area. The group claimed that they saw helicopters escorting the vessel away from them.
Who knows what these incidences tell us. They could be a government conspiracy hiding some secret warfare perhaps. Nobody actually knows and one can only guess.

MASSIVELY upgraded LHC Ready to hunt down MYSTERY Dark Matter Particles
MASSIVELY upgraded LHC Ready to hunt down MYSTERY Dark Matter Particles
February 20, 2015 - An upgraded, more powerful Large Hadron Collider, slated to begin returning to service next month, should open the door to new realms of physics, including possibly a glimpse of so-called “dark matter” particles, which, along with an equally mysterious dark energy force, dominate the universe.
Dark matter is so named because it does not emit or absorb light -- or any other electromagnetic radiation. Its presence is inferred by how its gravity impacts stars, galaxies, dust and other visible matter.
Scientists calculate that ordinary, visible matter accounts for about 5 percent of the universe. The rest is dark matter and a repulsive force called dark energy, which is accelerating the universe’s expansion.
“What we know about dark matter is that it exists, and then very little after that,” physicist Michael Williams, with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, told Discovery News.
“It would be nice if we could start to understand what dark matter is and how it affects the galaxy and the evolution of the universe, but just opening the door in particle physics to whatever is on the other side ... would be stepping into the unknown, which is exciting,” he said.
Scientists and legal experts have raised concerns that an ambitious experiment using a super-charged ion collider could accidentally destroy planet Earth.
One of the world’s most powerful particle accelerators, which is capable of generating particles hotter than four trillion degrees Celsius, has come under the spotlight after experts have warned that micro black holes and strange matter could be generated.
The Brookhaven National Laboratory’s Realistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) accelerates nuclei to the speed of light, before smashing them together in a bid to create quark-gluon plasma, which is an incredibly hot substance thought to have occurred just after the Big Bang.
While the experiment could help to answer questions about how life started on Earth, critics, including the Astronomer Royal, have warned that subatomic particles called ‘strangelets’ could be created accidentally
These particles have the potential to start a chain reaction and change everything into ‘strange matter,’ which Martin Rees said could transform Earth into ‘an inert hyperdense sphere about one hundred metres across’.
Police called more than 40 times in three years about UFO and alien 'sightings' in Bristol area
Police called more than 40 times in three years about UFO and alien 'sightings' in Bristol area
Calls to police reporting alien and UFO sightings in the Bristol area have dramatically dropped.
Calls to police reporting alien and UFO sightings have dramatically dropped.
According to figures released under the Freedom of Information Act, Avon and Somerset Constabulary was called on just five occasions last year about strange objects in the sky.
However the year before some 23 calls of a similar nature were made and there were 15 in 2012. { http://www.bristolpost.co.uk/ }

The 1954 Cennina Landing and Encounter with Humanoids
The 1954 Cennina Landing and Encounter with Humanoids
Date: November 1, 1954 Location: Cennina, Italy
Rosa Lotti was walking into Cennina, when she perceived a big vertical spindle, "like 2 cones joined at their bases." From behind this craft emerged two little men 3 ft tall, who approached her with friendly expressions, the older one laughing. They were speaking a language that sounded like Chinese, 'liu, lai, loi." Approaching Lotti, they snatched from her the carnations and one of her stockings. Lotti ran away. A deep hole in the ground was later found at the site.

[Excerpt from the article]
THE CENNINA LANDING OF 1954
Sergio Conti
NOVEMBER I, 1954, is a date that marks the occurrence of one of the most extraordinary UFO landing and contact cases ever recorded (it has already been quoted by Vallee as No. 24 in his Century of Landings).
Cennina is a small town near Biicine, in the Province of Arezzo.
On the morning of that day (a Monday and a feast-day in the Catholic Church) Rosa Lotti nei Dainelli, a forty-year-old peasant woman mother of four children, living at a farm called "La Collina" which is situated in a lonely region between Cennina and Capannolc, had risen early to go down into Cennina to visit the church and the cemetery. She was carrying a bunch of carnations, destined for the altar of the Madonna Pellegrina, whose procession had taken place the preceding evening.
It was 6.30 a.m.
Rosa Lotti rarely went into town, and spent most of her time on her arduous duties on the farm.
On this feast-day morning however she had put on her new dress and started out along the footpath that leads, through fields and thickets, towards the town. She went barefoot, carrying her stockings and her "best" shoes so as not to get them dirty. She would put them on before she came to the first houses.
She reached a point on this path, regularly taken by her, where it passed through a thicket of low bushes. She knew this path perfectly. She had even gone along it many a time at night, without ever having any sort of unpleasant encounter or noting anything unusual.
Arriving in the middle of a small clearing among the shrubs and sparse trees, she suddenly beheld, near a pine tree and on the edge of the little grassy area, a strange and unwonted object that at once aroused in her both curiosity and surprise. It was a sort of huge spindle, fixed vertically in the ground.
The Craft and the "Little Men"
This is how Rosa Lotti subsequently described the strange machine:
"A sort of double cone, over 2 metres high and about a metre wide in the middle." (In La Nazhnc Italiwa, November 2, 1954.)
"Like two bells joined together at their bases." (In La Settimana Incotn, No. 24, Year XV.)
"The object was very swollen out in the middle and pointed at the two ends. It seemed to be covered with leather." (In Il Giornale del Mattlno, November 2, 1954,)
"The outside of it shone as though it was of very polished light metal. On the lower cone there was an open glass door, and inside it could be seen two little seats, little scats like those used by children. In the central part of the spindle, where it was widest, there was a sort of roundish glass, closely following the round shape of the mysterious machine. Rosa Lotti had heard no sound from it." (In La Nazione Italiana, November 2, 1954.)
Rosa Lotti had stopped in her tracks, astonished and curious. But her surprise was only just beginning. From behind the "spindle" she beheld two strange beings emerge. "Almost like men, but of the size of children," was her description.
The two little beings approached her with friendly expressions on their faces. She had plenty of time to make a thorough examination of them, so that she was afterwards able to describe them in the minutest details. About 1 metre in height, they were wearing a sort of grey overall, all in one piece, including the feet. On their backs they had short cloaks of a grey material, and over the one-piece overall they wore a sort of doublet, fastened, right up to the collar, with little buttons "like shining stars." Their trousers were tightly-fitting, "like the long underpants that our men wear in the winter."
Their faces, crowned by helmets, were normal, but small. Both were no taller than a five-year-old infant, but their bodies were in proportion. "It would have taken two of those things to make a man," she said, "but they were very fine looking, even though rather old."
Vigorous, lively, they were talking away "as though they were Chinese. They kept saying: 'liu.1 lai,' 'loi,' 'lau.* 'loi,' 'lai,' 'liu,' " 3
They gesticulated, but with no trace of menace. Indeed, on the contrary, in a friendly fashion, as though they were trying to make themselves understood and to strike up a rudimentary conversation.
The older looking of the two was the more jovial, laughing and obviously trying to establish contact with her. They had magnificent eyes, fjll of intelligence. Their noses were of normal shape, their mouths just like a man's, but their upper lips were slightly curled in the centre, so that even when they were not laughing their teeth were still exposed. They were teeth like ours, broad, strong teeth, but short (as though they had been filed down) and somewhat protruding, like the teeth of rabbits.
Their ears were hidden under two leather discs, and there was a band around their foreheads, al?o of leather.
Approaching Rosa Lotti, who was now terrified, they snatched out of her hands the bunch of carnations and one of her black stockings. When she remonstrated timidly, the one who seemed the older of the two handed some of the flowers back to her, but kept five of them. Then, having examined the structure of the flowers with an air of curiosily, and laughing the while, he wrapped them in the stocking and threw them into the "spindle" through the small opening.
Then they stepped back a few paces from her, and look two "packages" from inside the machine—white objects, circular, which they carried in the hollow of the arm, holding the arm bent with the hand on the chest. The thing seemed to be wrapped in a newspaper, but it was not a newspaper. (La Naz'tone Sera, November 2, 1954.)
Then they turned towards the lady again, but she had seized the moment to escape. After running about 100 metres, she looked back. Everything had vanished.

The Carabinieri who went there in an effort to investigate the affair [found] that there was indeed a deep cavity recently made in the ground... The hole was also seen by the Chief Inspector of Carabinieri at Ambra, Signor Zulimo Botarelli, who happened to be out hunting in the vicinity at the time.
The Latest Investigation
Now, eighteen years after the event, we have re-examined the Cennina case and, thanks to the active support that we have received from the Prato UFO Study Group, we have been able to check the details and also gather valuable pieces of supporting testimony.

Support from Collateral Eyewitness Accounts
A vast network of collateral eyewitness accounts is now available to provide quite particular validity for the Cennina phenomenon, and to cause it to acquire a value, as an eyewitness account, that is well nigh irrefutable.

Notes and Comments by Gordon Creighton
1. The Italian press reports cited by Signor Sergio Conti are as follows: La Nazione Indiana, November 2 and 5, 1954. La Nazione Sera, November 2, 1954. II Giorno del Mattino, November 2, 3, and 5, 1954. II Giorno del Mattino, March 2, 1955. La Settimana Incom, June 17, 1962 (No. 24, Year 15).
The work of two Italian UFO investigation groups has gone into the compilation of this report. These are (1) MUF (UFO Section), or, to give them their full title in English, the UFO Section of the Florentine Humanistic Cultural Movement, in whose files the Cennina Case is listed as No. 92, and (2) the Prato UFO Study Group (Centro di Ricerca Per Lo Studio Sui Fenomeni UFO di Prato), whose energetic young members have just conducted a fresh investigation of the case and have unearthed much valuable corroborative material—for example, the story of the two boys who were out attending to their pigs on the morning of November 1, 1954, and are alleged to have actually seen Signora Rosa Lotti being chatted up by her homuncules.
3. Rosa Lotti's comparison is good. These are all very typical sounds in Chinese.

Gulf Breeze Sightings
Gulf Breeze Sightings
Date: November 11, 1987 Location: Gulf Breeze, Florida, United States
"Ed Walters was working in his home office when he noticed a light moving outside, partially obscured by the pine tree in his yard. To get a better look Ed went out of the front door, and could see that the light was in fact a glowing bluish-gray craft like none he had seen before... Edwould go on to photograph it many time"
"I was astounded when the UFO returned nine days later, on November 20, again just before dark. Far overhead, a light that looked like a star swiftly dropped from the sky. I aimed the camera, follwed the UFO, and took this photo as the craft moved up and then off to my right." (Credit: "The Gulf Breeze Sightings" by Ed and Frances Walters)

Gulf Breeze, Florida, a town with a population of just slightly over 6000, enjoyed their anonymity. But in the winter of 1987, their sleepy little town became the focus of the world. R
Of the many accounts of UFO sightings, photographs, and videos, the sensational reports that originated in Gulf Breeze, Florida are some of the most controversial. Though many sighted the elusive flying craft and snapped photographs of the glowing lights, the majority of attention was on one Edward Walters, a local building contractor.
When you read here or there that "the Gulf Breeze photographs are faked," or this sort of things, do not believe it on word. If one refers to the material presented by Ed Walters, one must note after of having really taken knowledge of the case and having challenged it, that these data suggest that Gulf Breeze was really visited by interplanetary visitors, not only once, but many times.
CUFOS considers Gulf Breeze a potentially significant UFO case, but one that remains unproven, and it is essential that research into every aspect of both photographs and testimony, continue. Important questions are yet unanswered, and necessary avenues of inquiry yet unpursued. R

From Introduction (front flap) to the book, The Gulf Breeze Sightings, by Ed and Frances Walters:
On November 11, 1987, Ed Walters, a prosperous builder-contractor in the exclusive Community of Gulf Breeze, Florida, saw a peculiar light shing through a tall pine tree in his front yard. He could see that the glow was unusual -- quite different from any of the commonplace planes and heliopters from the nearby naval air station that frequently populated the skies of Gulf Breeze. He stepped outside and saw a bluish gray craft like none he had ever seen before. It was intensely quiet, and Ed was intenesly frightened. He rushed back into the house and grabbed the old Polaroid camera that was a a part of his work gear as a builder. And he took photos.
The sightings continued and were shared by his wife and family. Ed's photos were published -- anonymously -- in the local weekly newspaper, and the sightings were corroborated by hundreds of residents in the Gulf Breeze area -- residents in the Gulf breeze area -- priests, politicians, judges, policemen, soldeirs, ordinary middle clas citizens.
An Introduction to the Gulf Breeze Sightings as Reported and Photographed by Ed Walters
from John Gilbert, Skiesare UFO Page
Today Gulf Breeze, in Florida, is known as one of the worlds top UFO hot spots. Sightings are being made and UFOs photographed and videoed all the time. Check out the Gulf Breeze Skywatch Diary to see the latest news from the area.
But it all started with a building contractor called Ed Walters. On the 11th of November 1987 Ed was working in his home office when he noticed a light moving outside, partially obscured by the pine tree in his yard. To get a better look Ed went out of the front door, and could see that the light was in fact a glowing bluish-gray craft like none he had seen before.
Ed rushed back into his office to grab his Polaroid camera which he used on job sights and stepped out onto the porch again. As the craft came from behind the tree he took his first photo. He watched for a moment and then, "Bang! Something hit me. All over my body, I tried to lift my arms, I couldn't move them. They were blue, I was blue, everything was blue. I was in a blue light beam. I was trying to breathe but my chest wouldn't expand. My feet lifted off the floor, a voice groaned in my head, " We will not harm you." I screamed, the voice said "Calm down." I screamed "Put me down!" No control, just a piecing smell, a little scent of ammonia mixed with heavy cinnamon that scorched, the stuck to, the back of my throat. A hum filled my head. Wham! I hit the ground, the blue light was gone. The hum was still in my head but quickly decreased and was gone."
On November the 20th the hum returned, and with it Ed could hear voices, as if he was listening in on a conversation. He went out side and saw a small speck of light falling at great speed. He took photo 6 as the UFO suddenly dropped its fall and hung in the sky. This photo has been light blasted and enhanced in this version.
It is this hum which Ed hears when ever the UFO comes close that has enabled him to photograph it so many times.
On the 2nd of December Ed's house was visited again. At about 3.30 am Ed was awakened by the sound of his dog barking just once. He went to investigate and on opening the blinds on his French doors he was confronted by a four foot tall creature with big black eyes. Ed screamed and fell backwards, the creature looked at him for a moment the walked away. "I gave chase. As my feet left the shelter of the back porch I was hit by the blue beam and held immobile while the creature fled into the vacant field at the back of my house. As soon as I could move I ret rived my camera and took this picture of the UFO shooting the blue beam into the field. I believe that it was picking up the creature I had seen."
Just before sunrise on December 5th, this UFO hovered above the tree line near the high school about a block from Ed's house. "The UFO moved towards me, I heard the voice say 'Do not resist...Zehaas.'"
This is just a small introduction to the story of Ed and the UFO. He would go on to photograph it many times, with his polaroid, a special four lens sealed camera given to him by MUFON, a stereo Polaroid which allowed the UFO to be ranged and a video camera. The whole story is contained in the book "The Gulf Breeze Sightings" by Ed and Frances Walters ISBN 0-380-70870-1.

'Metal sphere' discovered in the stratosphere
'Metal sphere' discovered in the stratosphere
Did life on Earth originate on another planet ? Image Credit: NASA / Paul A. Newman
A controversial new claim suggests that evidence of 'directed panspermia' has been found by scientists.
Astrobiologist Milton Wainwright and his team are no strangers to controversy having previously announced the discovery of what they believe to be evidence of extraterrestrial life in samples retrieved from high up in the stratosphere of our own planet.
Now the researchers are back with a new theory suggesting that a microscopic metal sphere also found in the stratosphere represents evidence that an advanced extraterrestrial race deliberately seeded the Earth with life at some point in the distant past.
Known as directed panspermia, the theory implies that life on our planet was neither an accident nor a natural process but instead a direct result of intervention from another world.
The main basis of the claim, the tiny metal sphere found in the samples, is described as having "filamentous life on the outside and a gooey biological material oozing from its centre."
"One theory is it was sent to Earth by some unknown civilization in order to continue seeding the planet with life," said Wainright. "This seeming piece of science fiction - called 'directed panspermia' - would probably not be taken seriously by any scientist were it not for the fact that it was very seriously suggested by the Nobel Prize winner of DNA fame, Francis Crick."
Even Wainright himself however admits that this evidence alone is never going to be enough.
"Unless, of course, we can find details of the civilization that is supposed to have sent it in this respect, it is probably an unprovable theory," he said.

Did a UFO visit us in 1983? New film sheds light on 'British Area 51'
Did a UFO visit us in 1983? New film sheds light on 'British Area 51
In 1983, U.S. Army personnel stationed near Rendlesham in Suffolk saw a strange, metallic triangle (Picture: The …
A new film explores one of the weirdest episodes in British history - a UFO mystery which enthusiasts believe has been the subject of a cover-up for two decades.
In 1983, U.S. Army personnel stationed near Rendlesham in Suffolk saw a strange, metallic triangle which was ‘dripping molten metal’ - and witnessed a light like a ‘huge red eye’.
Unlike most UFO sightings, it was documented in voice recordings from senior American soldiers, who also drew disturbing pictures of the object they saw.
One witness claimed to have telepathically ‘received’ a binary code, which has never been deciphered.
The Ministry of Defence investigated, and concluded that a variety of natural phenomena were responsible.
But some of the soldiers involved - and UFO fans - have never bought this explanation.
Film director Daniel Simpson, who researched The Rendlesham UFO Incident, said he investigated evidence including audio recordings before directing his own fictional take on the incident.
He said, ‘It is my belief that the USAF did actually see something that is from another world or dimension.
‘Former witness Lt Col Charles Halt has gone on record to state this also.’
Simpson told Starburst Magazine, ‘It’s one of, if not the, biggest UFO incident ever recorded along with the Roswell case and it took place over 3 consecutive nights. I think that the fascination in the case is amplified as a result of the witnesses being multiple USAF personnel, with the addition that one of those people was a Lieutenant Colonel who made an audio recording on a dictaphone as the events unfolded.’
Director Daniel Simpson says he believes something from another world DID visit Britain in 1983
Reports by retired soldiers such as Colonel Charles Halt sound seriously spooky: ‘While in Rendlesham Forest, our security team observed a light that looked like a large eye, red in colour, moving through the trees.
‘After a few minutes this object began dripping something that looked like molten metal.’
Others reported losing time periods, mysterious light – and strange howling noises ‘like women screaming’.
Sceptics claim that the marks of the UFO’s landing are, in fact, rabbit holes.
Multiple soldiers made drawings and descriptions of craft which resemble classic ‘flying saucers’.
Nigel Watson, author of the Haynes UFO Investigations Manual says, ‘The Rendlesham case is one of Britain’s most fascinating UFO incidents. The problem with the alleged crashes is that no one has ever provided unambiguous evidence to support them. It is always claimed that all the remains of crashed flying saucers and even their pilots are whisked off by Government retrieval teams.’

Daily 2 Cents: MH370...'came down in the South China Sea' -- Man Unable to Feel Pain -- Unknown Crash in Manitoba
Daily 2 Cents: MH370...'came down in the South China Sea' -- Man Unable to Feel Pain -- Unknown Crash in Manitoba
MH370...'came down in the South China Sea'
An oil rig worker who was notoriously fired for saying he believed he saw MH370 "come down" today insisted he thinks the official search for the Malaysian jet is happening in the wrong place.
In his first detailed interview since he sent out an email to officials relaying what he thought might be the Boeing 777 aircraft, Mike McKay, 57, told MailOnline: "Almost a year has passed, but I stand by what I saw.
"I've thought about it and thought about it, over and over and while I cannot say for certain that the burning object in the sky was definitely MH370, the timing fits in with when the Malaysian plane lost contact. I have been trying to disprove that what I saw was the aeroplane ever since."
And so far he has failed to disprove it. Speaking at his Auckland home where he now sits out his days after losing his job as a result of sending out the email on his company computer on the rig off the south of Vietnam, Mr McKay said that everyone believed he had said with certainty that he saw MH370 crash in flames into the South China Sea.
"Unfortunately my words were misinterpreted. I was careful to say that I 'believed' I saw the aircraft come down. The email was never for public consumption.
"And if it was the plane that has been missing for so long, then the search in the southern Indian Ocean is clearly in the wrong place."
Just noticed this on MUFON CMS...anyone have information on this event?
2/16/2015 - Jackhead, Manitoba, Canada: According to family on Facebook, there was a crash. An increase in military presence and members of the public are not allowed near the crash site and photography is not permitted anywhere near the site. Jackhead is north of the Peguis Indian reserve. - MUFON CMS
Steve Pete has broken bones more times than he can count and once chewed part of his own tongue off.
The 33-year-old also shattered his arm so badly he initially didn’t even realise he was hurt until he saw the bones poking out.
While his injuries sound horrific, and no doubt are, Mr Pete has no idea he has even injured himself because he can’t feel pain.
The American suffers from congenital analgesia or congenital insensitivity to pain. While this has obvious plus sides, there are a lot more disadvantages than people realize.
“I’ve had so many injuries over the years that it’s hard to recall,” he told news.com.au from his home in Kelso, Washington State.
“I’ve broken so many bones. One time in the playground at school I was on the swing set going back and forth.
“I jumped off the swing, landed incorrectly and my bones shattered in my right arm.
“I didn’t feel it but there was bone sticking out, which was a pretty good indication I’d injured myself.”
Mr Pete, whose brother Chris also suffers with the same condition, said he was a baby when his parents realised something was seriously wrong after he chewed off part of his tongue, and he underwent a series of tests.
All Americans need to read this...the secret world of government debt collection
Government agencies across the country are hiring private debt collectors to go after millions of Americans over unpaid taxes, ancient parking tickets and even $1 tolls.
It’s a good deal for cash-strapped states, cities and other local governments. By outsourcing this dirty work and letting private companies charge debtors sky-high fees, government agencies can get these collection services free of charge.
And it's a great deal for debt collectors. In an industry already known for bad behavior, debt collectors that work for government agencies usually don’t have to work within the confines of consumer protection laws – opening the door for higher fees and even more aggressive tactics.
Their government bosses can give them the power to threaten debtors with the suspension of their driver’s license, garnishment of their wages, foreclosure and arrest to get them to pay up.
State lawmakers have even passed laws allowing private collectors to charge debtors steep fees. In Florida, for example, fees can be as high as 40% on top of the total bill, which includes not only what they already owe, but interest and government penalties as well. In Texas, they can reach 30%. And in cases of unpaid toll violations, flat fees can effectively amount to more than 100%. As a result, small unpaid tolls can easily balloon into hundreds of dollars, once government penalties and collection fees are tacked on.

Documented Humanoid Encounters
Documented Humanoid Encounters
The following is a collection of interesting documented humanoid encounters submitted by Albert S. Rosales over the years:
VIOLENT BEDROOM VISITATION
Location:Kremenchung, Ukraine - February 23, 1991 - night
After coming back from work at a local bakery, the witness A. S. Tkachuk was trying to fall sleep when suddenly she felt a pair of strong hands gripping her around the throat. Opening her eyes she is terrified to see only at about 30cms from her a strange humanoid with a face similar to humans but completely covered with hair. Around its black eyes the hair was somewhat shorter and humanoid appeared to have two short horns on top of its head. The witness attempted to struggle and grabbed the creature’s hands with her hands. The creature’s fingers were short and the hand’s were more human than animal according to the witness, covered with fur and warm to the touch. The creature’s fur was dark-chestnut in color; it seemed to be short in stature its arms corresponding to that of a 5-6 year old child. The witness attempted to push the creature’s hands away from her throat but the creature was incredibly strong. She somehow “understood” that the creature was male but did not see any genitalia. The witness then realized that she would not be able to escape from creature’s grip and ceased to resist, immediately thereafter the creature let her go and disappeared. The witness remained paralyzed with fear and unable to speak in bed for a long time.

Comments from Albert Rosales: What sort of creature was this? Why did it attack the witness and more importantly why did it suddenly let go and vanished?
NOTE: a humanoid / hominid that small and generating that much force was most likely not terrestrial in my opinion...Lon
Location: Near Murmansk, Siberia, Russia - Summer 1995 - 8:30 PM
Two men were riding a car on a local road outside of Murmansk, despite being evening it was still light out. The road was about 4 meters wide and was asphalt and surrounded by fields of tall canes on both sides. The road was straight and there was excellent visibility. Suddenly at approximately 15-20 meters in front of the car a strange creature was seen running across the road. The creature looked bird-like and it was visibly huge. The entity had long legs, about 2 meters long, dark feathers along the back and an odd shaped body. Unfortunately the witnesses were unable to see any additional details, but discerned that the strange ‘bird’ was similar to a ‘running reptile’. They stopped the car but realized that it was useless to look for the strange entity amid the dense cane fields. Later one of the witnesses while reading a book on dinosaurs, found a picture that depicted almost exactly what he and his friend had seen. The image was later identified as a dinosaur from the order of Ornithischia Local naturalists stated that no species of ‘animal’ fitting the description lived in the region.

Comments from Albert Rosales: Did the men drive through a time warp?
Location: Naryan-Mar, Nenets Autonomous Region, Russia - 1994 - afternoon
Several deer herders watched a large metallic disc-shaped object descend and land among a herd of deer. Immediately from the craft emerged several short humanoid figures, while ignoring the stunned herders, began to conduct on the seemingly paralyzed animals what appeared to be ‘surgical operations’. One of the shepherds approached the group of aliens, intending to drive them away. However the other men watched as the herder apparently came under the same hypnotic control that had affected the herd. Without trying to escape he approached the aliens and ‘voluntarily gave himself to them’. His body was found the next day, completely drained of blood, his genitalia removed along with the prostrate and pancreas; also several pieces of skin were removed in other parts of the body.

Location: Carranza, Maule Region, Chile - February 1994 - morning
Local laborer Florencio Arellano was performing his morning chores and was sitting on his tractor preparing to go into the fields when he suddenly looked to the nearby trees and noticed a strange figure with its arms outstretched and staring at Arellano. The figure was at least 3 meters and a half in height and wore a white tunic. It stood without moving staring at Arellano. The figure’s clothing was very white and the entity seemed to have pale features. The witness sat stunned on his tractor and stared back at the figure for about 3 minutes when it suddenly just vanished in plain sight. He took the encounter as a “sign from God”.

Location: Lake Gwelup near Perth, Western Australia - June 1984 - midnight
The night of the full moon the witness had taken her dog out for a walk to a nearby lake reserve and was walking under some gum trees when she came upon a clearing. As she attempted to cross the clearing she noticed some figures in distance moving towards her. Judging from their height, she thought it was some boys. She also observed a white object that was moving alongside the short figures. Being alone she thought it was prudent to hide behind some trees as the “boys” passed by.
As she crouched with her dog she watched them approach. She slowly became aware that the figures were actually small humanoids; about 3 ft tall whose arms and legs seemed to be too long for their bodies. They moved with a strange gait, almost ape-like and seemed to be unclothed with dark grayish skin. As she watched in amazement the bouncing white object revealed itself as a rolling ball of light trailing behind the short figures. Suddenly the leader lifted his strange long arm high in the air and let out a spine tingling cry, and at this point her dog with her tail between her legs left her behind. The creatures then themselves disappeared into a thicket of lupines not far off.
This experienced was followed up the following night when her cousin, on hearing of her encounter, somehow persuaded her to return to the lake with him, armed with a camera. They did not see any strange creatures but were buzzed by a large craft of white light, which hovered several times over the clearing. Her cousin possible took some pictures of the object.

14-year old Mari Carmen Ramos was walking back home along Gonzalez Amezqueta Avenue, a wide and deserted road. Suddenly as if obeying some invisible instinct she sensed something strange. She looked around apprehensively. After advancing a few steps she noticed somebody approaching in the opposite direction. An unnatural cold and wind filled the air around her. Looking up she noticed what appeared to be a “woman” of considerable height and wearing all black approaching her position at a very high and unnatural rate of speed. It had apparently moved over one hundred meters in a matter of seconds.
Ramos stopped to observe the bizarre figure and noticed that it appeared to slide over the ground effortlessly. It kept its arms rigidly on its side. Its face appeared to be encased in shadows and no features could be seen. The bizarre woman was over 3 meters in height and was moving at very high speed towards the witness who felt petrified with fear and was unable to move. In moments the tall black clad figure shot across in an angle crossing the road and into an adjacent alleyway.
After it had gone the witness looked into the alley and was surprised to see that the figure had completely disappeared.

Location : Santa Lucia, Cabaiguan, Cuba - 1964 - late afternoon
Rodolfo Garcia, was resting after lunch in the tobacco shed, which he found to be cool and quiet. On that afternoon he looked up and saw a ‘man’ wearing a strange outfit. Its face and hands were green, like that of a frog and it had large round protruding eyes. It didn’t have any ears and its mouth was a thin line, it was about as tall as two men and stood on a wooded box staring at the witness.
Terrified Garcia watched as the strange creature seemed to be trying to tell him something. Suddenly it emitted a loud shrieking sound which caused the witness’s eardrums to burst and his ears to bleed. In pain, the witness then fell from his cot. At the same time the creature emitted a second shriek which caused the witness to loose consciousness. Later he was found by one of his sons since the family was concerned that Rodolfo had not returned from his nap. After he told the rest what he had seen they armed themselves with rifles and machetes and searched the tobacco shed but found nothing.

Could the Big Bang theory be wrong? A proposed new model of the universe argues yes—the universe has no origin point at all.
In science, the theories with the most staying power are the ones that explain what we don’t know with the most simplicity and elegance. And surprisingly enough, the simplest new theory in quantum physics may be the one that’s most difficult for us to wrap our heads around: The universe has been around since, well, forever.
Up until now, the theory that’s made the most logical sense to explain how the universe began is the Big Bang, which holds that the universe came into being about 13.8 billion years ago as a result of a single event that launched the universe into a continuous state of expansion. Although this theory has long held its own as a way of understanding Einstein’s theory of general relativity, as scientists have delved deeper into the fascinating world of quantum physics, the Big Bang model has been a bit shakier.
Now researchers working in Egypt and Canada have proposed a new model with a much simpler idea of the beginning of the universe: There wasn’t one. Ahmed Farag Ali of Benha University and the Zewail City of Science and Technology in Egypt, together with Saurya Das at the University of Lethbridge in Alberta, Canada, have presented their research in a paper called “Cosmology from quantum potential” published in Physics Letters B. The new model makes quantum corrections to a previously known equation that used a theory of quantum trajectory originally proposed by the legendary physicist David Bohm. Using the corrected equation to fit Einstein’s theory of general relativity, the researchers came up with a model that implies that the Big Bang singularity never happened.
The biggest problem with the Big Bang theory is that none of the equations that explain what happened in the singularity can take us all the way back to the moment the singularity actually happened. Instead, the laws of physics can only explain what occurred from the moment the universe achieved what’s known as the Planck Temperature, which happened after the theoretical singularity. Another basic problem is that if the universe is expanding, it must have been expanding from an area that was, at one point, incredibly small and dense—perhaps even infinitely small and dense.
The new model moves away from the “expanding universe” theory. It also sidesteps the matter of the universe’s previous infinite size and density, which the paper calls the “smallness problem,” by relying on a “cosmological constant” term that puts the universe at a finite size. In other words, instead of originating from a single point in a singularity, the universe has simply always been around. Speaking to Nature Middle East last month, Ali said the theory helped unify quantum mechanics and general relativity:
“Our theory serves to complement Einstein’s general relativity, which is very successful at describing physics over large distances…But physicists know that to describe short distances, quantum mechanics must be accommodated.”
Scientists have long appreciated that a more accurate model of the universe might leave out the Big Bang entirely. But the implications of this new model are quite radical in that not only does it sidestep the Big Bang but it also sidesteps numerous other theories that scientists have been working with for decades to explain parts of quantum theory that don’t fit into the Big Bang model—like the theory of cosmic inflation to explain the universe’s rapid exponential growth from its previous small point.
The model also avoids utilizing the theoretical existence of dark energy to explain why the universe began to quickly accelerate about 7 billion years into its existence. The Ali–Das model proposes that the universe is filled with quantum fluid, perhaps made up of theoretical massless particles called gravitons, which are thought to help mediate the effects of gravity. Instead of dark energy causing objects to accelerate and expand, the theory argues that instead, the quantum fluid exerts a slight but constant force on objects to cause the expansion of space.
Finally, the model also potentially explains a phenomenon called Hubble’s Law, which has long been seen as proof of the expansion of the universe, in terms that don’t actually rely on space-time.
The researchers told Phys.org that they were motivated to explore the theory after realizing what the implications were for problems related to the Big Bang. “It is satisfying to note that such straightforward corrections can potentially resolve so many issues at once,” Das noted.
Doubtless this theory, like all good theories, provides more questions than answers. It’s not quite a complete theory of quantum gravity, though it may hold up under future theories. It also, sadly, puts paid to the idea that the universe came from a giant black hole.
Still, in a science where the current standard visions of the universe involve concepts like anti-matter, superstrings, 10 dimensions (or more), membrane universes, and multiverses, a theory like this one seems refreshingly like a return to the basics.
Parallel worlds exist and interact with our world, say physicists
Parallel worlds exist and interact with our world, say physicists
February 19, 2015 - Quantum mechanics, though firmly tested, is so weird and anti-intuitive that famed physicist Richard Feynman once remarked, "I think I can safely say that nobody understands quantum mechanics." Attempts to explain some of the bizarre consequences of quantum theory have led to some mind-bending ideas, such as the Copenhagen interpretation and the many-worlds interpretation.
Now there's a new theory on the block, called the "many interacting worlds" hypothesis (MIW), and the idea is just as profound as it sounds. The theory suggests not only that parallel worlds exist, but that they interact with our world on the quantum level and are thus detectable. Though still speculative, the theory may help to finally explain some of the bizarre consequences inherent in quantum mechanics, reports RT.com.
The theory is a spin-off of the many-worlds interpretation in quantum mechanics — an idea that posits that all possible alternative histories and futures are real, each representing an actual, though parallel, world. One problem with the many-worlds interpretation, however, has been that it is fundamentally untestable, since observations can only be made in our world. Happenings in these proposed "parallel" worlds can thus only be imagined.
MIW, however, says otherwise. It suggests that parallel worlds can interact on the quantum level, and in fact that they do.
"The idea of parallel universes in quantum mechanics has been around since 1957," explained Howard Wiseman, a physicist at Griffith University in Brisbane, Australia, and one of the physicists to come up with MIW. "In the well-known ‘Many-Worlds Interpretation’, each universe branches into a bunch of new universes every time a quantum measurement is made. All possibilities are therefore realised – in some universes the dinosaur-killing asteroid missed Earth. In others, Australia was colonised by the Portuguese."
"But critics question the reality of these other universes, since they do not influence our universe at all," he added. "On this score, our "Many Interacting Worlds" approach is completely different, as its name implies."
Wiseman and colleagues have proposed that there exists "a universal force of repulsion between ‘nearby’ (i.e. similar) worlds, which tends to make them more dissimilar." Quantum effects can be explained by factoring in this force, they propose.
Whether or not the math holds true will be the ultimate test for this theory. Does it or does it not properly predict quantum effects mathematically? But the theory is certain to provide plenty of fodder for the imagination.
For instance, when asked about whether their theory might entail the possibility that humans could someday interact with other worlds, Wiseman said: "It's not part of our theory. But the idea of [human] interactions with other universes is no longer pure fantasy."
What might your life look like if you made different choices? Maybe one day you'll be able to look into one of these alternative worlds and find out.

ARE 'THE X-FILES' COMING BACK TO TV?by Stuart Conover.
Long time fans of Agents Mulder and Scully might be very happy to hear that FOX is in talks to bring ‘'The X-Files‘ back to the small screen. For the longest time we thought there would be a minuscule chance of bringing Chris Carter’s series back in the form of a third film but no word on it returning to prime time. Until now. It looks like it might be a good thing that Carter’s latest project ‘'The After‘ won’t show up on Amazon after all. More...
BLACK TRIANGLE UFO FILMED OVER ROYORSFORD, PAby Joseph del Greco.
Some of the best footage to date of the infamous and elusive black triangle has been submitted to MUFON on today, the 12th of January. The sighting took place in Royorsford, Pennsylvania back in July of 2013 when the witness states that they were driving home from the local 7/11 on a warm summer night. The witness reports seeing the triangular object hovering over houses that were around 3,500 sq. feet in size, to give a size reference to the object. The viewer was not alone however, and had two other witnesses with him or her in the vehicle.More..
A JOURNEY INTO THE AKASHIC REALMby Warwick Associates.
Many people are unfamiliar with the Akashic Records, but the Records have been referenced in great books throughout written history. There are mentions of the “Tablets of Destiny” or the “Book of Life” in the “Jewish Torah, the Old and New Testaments of the Christian Bible as well as in the Islamic Qur’an. As a global concept found throughout China, Japan, India, Egypt, the Middle East, Europe and the Americas, the Book of Life is described as a record of a person’s deeds and destiny.” More..

SCIENTIST BELIEVES METALLIC ORB MAY BE SENT BY ALIENS!by Alejandro Rojas.
Scientists have found a tiny metal orb they believe is extraterrestrial in origin, has evidence of life on its exterior, and also has "a gooey biological material oozing" out of it. The lead scientist of the team who discovered the object suggests that it may have been sent by an intelligent extraterrestrial civilization for the purpose of seeding life on Earth. More...

THE FIVE POINTS UFO INCIDENTby Cheryl Costa.
The New York City of that era was a cramped urban setting before the age of tall buildings. Around midnight in a Five Points slum house on Baxter Street, Mrs. T. Richard Kinder was looking eastward out of an upper floor window towards the Church of Transfiguration. In the clear moonless sky she saw a cross like object with a flaming luminosity moving across the sky. She woke her husband and he too saw the radiant cross. More...

WERE WE PLANTED ON EARTH AND OTHER TOUGH QUESTIONS?by Sam Chauhan.
Most Important question always strikes in our mind is,what is soul? We found that Soul is the group of highly integrated memories capable of independent existence of brain, we can't burn them with fire, can't make them wet with water, can't make them dry with air. They are Immortal. In technical language we can call it hard disk of brain named as constant information domain. There is very deep link between UFO's and soul. More...

REVIEW OF A SUPERNATURAL NOVEL ABOUT IMMORTALITYby Gabrielle Pantera.
“The early draft of The Eterna Files was inspired by binge-watching the many seasons of MI-6 and really falling in love with the character dynamics,” says Eterna Files author Leanna Renee Hieber. “All of my books thus far are set in the late 19th century, between the 1860s and 1880s, and all of them are full of ghosts and paranormal activity, so I wanted to play with the idea of what would happen to a pre-MI-6 office dealing with the paranormal. This pulled in my love of The X-files as well. All my hard work in carving out a cross-genre niche in Gothic Victorian Urban Fantasy, a forerunner among modern Gaslamp Fantasy authors, is all coming together in The Eterna Files.” More...

CLOSE ENCOUNTER WITH A HUGH UFO TRIANGLE OVER NEW JERSEY JANUARY 7, 2015 ……… MONROE TOWNSHIP NEW JERSEY
I witnessed a large black triangle shape Flying Object with very bright flashing alternate color lights (matched description the description of the person who reported a Flying Object over Baskng Ridge, NJ). I was out in my side yard walking the dog when I heard a very strong rumbling hum coming from across the street. I turned around and saw a very low flying aircraft coming over the tree tops of the field across the street. I stood there and watched it approach me and fly right over my head. I was looking directly up into its undercarraige. There were extremely bright colored flashing lights in varying colors of red, blue, white and maybe green. I could feel the vibration of the rumbling hum just like you would “feel” a low flying helicopter thumping overhead. It did not have a sound of propoltion; it was more of a hovering sound. Even the dog looked straight up in the air to see what he was hearing and feeling. He cowered a little, but didn’t bolt. It was movin very slowand I worried about it falling out of the sky onto our heads. Its size was large like an aircraft.
There is 50′ of grass between the edge of our house and the woods next door. The aircraft going over my head spanned that entire distance and more. It was only maybe 50-100 feet above the tree tops and roof (two stories). It continued across the back of my yard and across the next two neihbor’s (no trees/a few acres) back yards; when it reached the next treeline it turned south. I never took my eyes off it. It took several minutes before it was out of my signt. I never felt threatened by it, just curious about how something could fly so low and slow without falling. I immediately asked my husband if he had heard it, but he had earbuds in his ears for his Ipad. The next morning I called my neighbor to see if they had seen it (it went right across their yard). She said she didn’t see it but she and her sons had heard it just after 9:00 and they commented that it was flying very low. She added that her two sons had seen it the month before while outside in their hottub (the same time of night and also a cloudless night). They came in and told her about it and that it was not like any normal aircraft (there father is pilot and they watch and identify planes all the time). I had heard it the month before as well, but by the time I got to the back of the house to look it was already over the neighbors yards but was low and had the flashing colored lights. Frequently military aircraft pass over here. I did report it to the state and their response was that it was probably a military aircraft.
NOTE: The above image is a rendering.
This case is under investigation by Chief Investigator Ken Pfeifer of MUFON New Jersey.

Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over: California, Florida, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Montana, New Jersey, Ohio, Oregon, Vermont, and West Virginia.
Sightings of UFOs were also reported in: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Peru, Spain, Ukraine, in England in the United Kingdom and Uruguay.
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.

Special Reports
Podesta Regrets Not Telling America about UFOs
Outgoing Obama adviser John Podesta says he has one major regret about the past year: not telling American’s the truth about UFOs. In a tweet on Friday, Podesta, whose fascination with UFOs and government investigations has been well-documented for years, named his regret over the secrecy his “number one” issue, reports Yahoo News. Podesta didn’t say whether he plans to follow his fascination for UFOs now that he’s leaving the White House, like he did after his four years as President Bill Clinton’s chief of staff.
Back in 2002, Yahoo News reports, Podesta spoke at a press conference that was organized by the Coalition for Freedom of Information, about the importance of sharing the information the government has about UFO investigations, saying “it’s time to find out what the truth really is that’s out there…we ought to do it, really, because it’s right. We ought to do it, quite frankly, because the American people can handle the truth. And we ought to do it because it’s the law.”And on Friday, The Washington Post recalled when Podesta told one of its reporters in 2007 that “the truth is out there,” concerning UFOs, echoing the tagline for the TV show, “The X-Files.” Podesta is leaving the White House to work as a senior adviser on Hillary Clinton’s potential 2016 presidential campaign.
Ukraine Possible Nuclear Explosions and UFO
Paul Gaspari writes, “Did a nuke just go off in Ukraine on February 9, 2015?” Was Donetsk nuked by Kiev? I was searching the internet for video evidence of the purported use of tactical nukes in the Ukrainian conflict and came upon a very interesting clip.
Unfortunately, there seems to be several videos from Ukrainian citizens that show small nuclear-style blasts with resulting shockwaves and I am afraid that these types of weapons are actually being deployed. This daytime video shows a blast occurring with a definite black mushroom cloud that forms.
What is most intriguing is that a UFO quickly descends from space and begins interacting and ‘sniffing’ the mushroom cloud before quickly zipping off and disappearing. The craft seems to hop around much like the motion of a fly. You can actually see the mushroom cloud swirling towards the craft. I know that UFOs have shown a history of interest in nuclear weapons but I wonder what their purpose is? Thanks to Paul Gaspari. Note: Even small nukes destroy comparatively large areas and large conventional explosions can make large nuke like clouds. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oy7yNnQghs8&sns=em
Hexagon UFO Matches Speed with Space Station
I was watching the live Internet Space Station cam on February 8, 2015, when I caught a glimpse of a disk off to the left of the screen. This hexagon UFO matched 17,000 mph speed of the space station. The UFO was semi transparent and the clouds below could be seen through it…but that’s how cloaks work, bending light 180 degrees around objects.
This is not a donut, but a solid disk with a misty electrical field around it.
The front and back line of the UFO is longer than lines on both sides. All evidence points to it being an alien craft. Thanks to UFO Sightings Daily
New Jersey Triangles Part 2
Robert Spearing writes, “Let’s talk about hovering for a moment. Apart from helicopters and conventional planes with vertical capable propellers, there is no evidence that a triangle or delta winged aircraft can hover.” Yet in an astounding 54% of the cases the triangle was doing just that. Way too many witnesses to be mistaken as to what they were seeing especially at close range! In forty-seven cases (82%) the craft was silent. Most of these witnesses were close enough to know. In eight cases (14%) the witness heard a low hum and in two cases (4%) they heard a low rumble. In other words, in all 57 cases studied not one had an engine noise described in conventional terms! Is the power plant so insulated that it is stealth-like or do these triangles use a non-traditional form of getting around such as anti-gravity?
Yet another very harsh statistic was that in an astounding fifty-five cases (96%), there were no conventional red and green FAA mandated navigation lights. In only three other cases were anti-collision red strobes seen on the belly of the craft! That is some mighty dangerous and inconsiderate flying on the part of the military if it is them!
Another strange anomaly is that in five cases (9%) other objects accompanied the triangle. One was a green cylinder and the rest were small orbs or lights. This is reminiscent of many of the cylinder UFO cases reported in France in the 1950s where they were frequently escorted by circles of light undulating in their flight paths in pairs.
While only 3 cases (5%) fall into the next category it is enough to suggest there is merit to it because of its peculiar nature. Apparently, some triangles can give off a mist or cloud which can cloak it to some degree. In another two cases, electronics were affected as the triangle passed in close proximity to the witness.
Now for some mundane statistics: In 21 cases (37%) witnesses estimated the size of the craft to be between 100 and 300 feet long. A typical Boeing 737 is between 102 and 137 feet long depending on its class. In 22 cases (39%) the craft was of an unknown size. In 7 cases (12%) the craft was estimated at 31 to 100 feet long. In five cases, the witness estimated 11 to 30 feet long and in only 3 cases did the witness think the craft was larger than 300 feet which would be truly enormous. In many UFO reports of triangles, witnesses report either rounded edges to the triangle’s points or they report a total absence of points as if cut off. Our study of New Jersey reveals this is not the norm. Only 4 cases had rounded edges.
A great photo from MUFON Case # 43920 shows such a round edged triangle.
The triangle in that photo has a unique lighting pattern to it which I shall call perimeter lighting. Twelve cases (21%) had this strange lighting on either one two or all three sides of the craft. Sometimes the back line of the craft had perimeter lighting while the front displayed only a point of light at the tip of the triangle. In other cases the front two sides were illuminated.
The remaining cases had more conventional lighting at each of the triangle’s three points. In all, 38 cases (67%) had lights on each point. Most of the cases had either 3 white or three red points of light on their tips. Six cases had a combination of yellow and green lights and eight cases (14%) had blue lights on the points of the craft. Blue lights are not standard colors for conventional aircraft in the United States or anywhere else!
Two final remarks on lighting configurations are that seven cases (12%) had bright white center belly spotlights and in one case the spot was surrounded by five fainter white lights and another two cases had globular lights on their points.
In the attached zoomed in photo from MUFON Case 35102, the triangle clearly displays unusual three dimensional globes at each point.
Finally, and perhaps most profound among the findings reach in this report is the fact that triangles are not one type of phenomenon. In all, I determined four distinct categories. Forty-seven cases (82%) fall into the Type I category of the Equilateral, Isosceles or Obtuse black craft. Two cases fell into the very interesting category of shape shifting red orb like lights. These Type II craft seem to hover, drift and gradually change shape sometimes deviating from a triangle into a straight line. In these cases, the craft is not clearly seen suggesting it may not be a triangle at all. It may also be a craft of immense size with lights moving about its belly like the Lockheed Martin P-791 transport airship. And, for the skeptics, this may also be the sighting type most prone to hoaxers using Chinese lanterns and flares attached to balloons. Type III craft (5 cases -9%) are arrow/wedge/boomerang shaped. One possibility is that a U.S. Stealth F-117 Fighters may have been seen and mistaken for triangles but they do not have the ability to hover! The final category, Type IV, is pyramidal and very mysterious. They comprised only three cases.
In conclusion, I wish to reiterate that this is a small study of one U.S. State and in no way is a final truth about Black Triangle identities and behaviors in other places. However, it should be the responsibility of other researchers in other places, to attempt to correlate the results of studies they should be undertaking to ascertain a larger picture. The MUFON Case Management System and Peter Davenport’s National UFO Center (NUFORC.ORG) are vast databases that are being underemployed by UFOlogists.
Perhaps our government and other ones around the world, unbeknownst to us, are undertaking such studies. Quite frankly, for our sake, I hope they are. Thanks to Robert Spearing, publisher www.worldufowatch.com
Picture ‘PROVES’ There Is Life on Other Planets
Nathon Rao writes, “The never-before seen photograph shows a mysterious dragon-shaped organism found in space, which they claim also reveals that all life on Earth, including humans, is extraterrestrial in origin.” It was discovered in dust and particulate matter gathered deep in the Earth’s stratosphere. Its finders say it is a “biological entity” made of carbon and oxygen – the building blocks of life.
The scientists who made the incredible find insist there is no way it could have blown up into space from our planet – and so must have originated elsewhere in the universe. It was discovered by Professor Milton Wainwright and his team from the University of Sheffield and the University of Buckingham Centre for Astrobiology. Professor Wainwright sent balloons into the stratosphere 27 km above the Earth’s atmosphere to collect particles from space. He claimed what they have discovered is not only proof that life exists in outer space, but that extraterrestrial organisms are continually raining down on earth. He said: “The photo shows a structure colloquially called ‘the dragon particle’ which scientific analysis shows is made of carbon and oxygen and is therefore not a piece of cosmic or volcanic dust. Scientists claim the dragon particle is conclusive evidence of life elsewhere in the universe “This is clearly a biology entity (about 10micron in size), although it is unclear whether it is part of a single organism or is made up of smaller, individual microbes. “It is certainly unusual and seems to be like nothing found on Earth. “What is amazing is that these organisms appear on the sampling stubs in an absolutely pristine condition. “There is no pollen, grass or pollution particles found with them or for that matter soil or volcanic dust”.
“And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness:” Genesis 1-26 “Unless a means of lifting them from Earth exists which selectively sieves them out from other Earth-derived debris then they must be incoming from space. “This, plus the fact that some of the biological material samples by the team produce impact craters when they hit the sampler, confirms their space origin.”It comes just weeks after astronauts said they found traces of life on the surface of the International Space Station (ISS) which orbits Earth. http://www.express.co.uk/news/nature/518510/Aliens-do-exist-scientists-find-proof-of-life-in-space.
Francis Crick the co-founder of DNA and 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. He felt life did not originate on earth, and suggests a theory called panspermia and indicates that the seeds of life are all through the universe. This concept basically infers that life, DNA, virus, bacteria, bombarded from space aboard meteorites. Crick proposed, in a book called “Life Itself,” that some form of primordial life was shipped to the earth in spaceships—by supposedly more advanced alien beings.
Note: Personally, I have seen the 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.
Egypt Declares War on Islamic State who Beheaded 21 Christians
(AFP) – Cairo— The Islamic State (IS) released a video on Sunday purportedly showing the beheading of 21 Egyptian Coptic Christians the jihadists say they captured in Libya. Egypt’s President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi ordered Egyptian F-16s to bomb the Libyan terrorists and declared seven days of mourning. . Sunday’s IS video, entitled “A message signed with blood to the nation of the cross”, has a scrolling caption in the first few seconds referring to the hostages as “People of the cross”. One of the masked captors, wearing a military uniform and pointing a knife to the camera said in English: “Today we are in the south of Rome, in the land of Islam Libya… the sea you have hidden Sheikh Osama bin Laden’s body in, we swear to Allah we will mix it with your blood.”
The Islamic State has now spread the largest area ever controlled by a terrorist group that now controls most of Libya, Yemen, Syria, Iraq and Pakistan. The Qur’an does not visualize war being waged with “kid gloves.” It gives a distinctive concept of total war against all non Muslims. It wants both the nation and the individual, to be at war totally with all their spiritual, moral, and physical resources.
Lester Holt on NBC Evening News on February 13, 2015, showed two Yazidi 19 year old women from Iraq. Yazidis are members of the small religious minority in northern Iraq that the Islamic State has targeted for extermination and enslavement. Survivors told NBC News that IS fighters entered Kuchu on August 3, drove 500 men to the groves outside of the village, lined up and shot them. The woman had been sold as sex slaves, but months later escaped their captors. One named Farida stated, “There were 80 girls in that large room in Raqqa, the IS capital in eastern Syria. They were all about to be bought as sex slaves by IS fighters. She remembers the girls wept — and the men laughed. The men would come into the slave auction to pay an IS official and then take away one or two or three girls each.” Farida, 19, doesn’t know how much money she was sold for. She was shown an IS video. “I see this and I don’t think of my case, I think of all the girls, because they would do everything to them,” she said. “We want justice.”http://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/isis-terror/isis-terror-yazidi-woman-recalls-horrors-slave-auction-n305856
FBI Director James Comey said that the Islamic State is already in the U.S. and actively plotting to kill Americans. IS has killed a dozen doctors in Mosel who refused to participate in their taking of organs from people to be sold for profit. A religious body within IS cites Islamic texts to justify the burning of nonbelievers as IS did to 45 captive Iraqi’s and a Jordanian pilot.

Filer’s Files # 08 – 2015 – Life on Other Planets - PART II
Sightings of UFOs in the United States
California Lights
Port Hueneme— At home on our outside patio/deck I spotted the sharp movement of an object that flew in opposite direction too quick on February 1, 2015. Its zigzag real quick movements think UFO! I’ve seen some questionable things here during twilight early a.m.
I loaded it to my page. Am I tripping or is this a UFO? A follower was able to spot the difference of the objects and the flying birds. I really felt like I may have a sighting. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Florida Orb
Plant City– This UFO event happened at 8:25 PM on February 13, 2015, as my wife., my daughter and I observed in the sky north of us a very bright amber reddish light, The light was very beautiful flying east, at about 80 mph. It was not a normal aircraft without blinking aviation safety lights. It was close and I pointed out the light to my wife, and we slowed down. We all leaned forward trying to observe the object and sped up to get into our drive way quicker. We all got out, and observed the lighted object in a clear area hovering silently. After 15 seconds, it started moving east again and after a few minutes it disappeared. My wife and I agreed it was not any known aircraft to either of us. To show you what we observed, since we had no camera’s available I Goggled this light in the night sky”, and copied it to give you a close example of what it looks like. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Vero Beach– This photo was taken of lights over the Atlantic Ocean on January 27, 2015, between 9:10 and 9:15 PM during a Dr. Greer Contact Expedition.
Click here to see the other stills and videos taken by 4 participants.
My Disclosure Testimony is at 1:06 minutes into the video at the National Press Club.
Indiana Power Outages
Borden– An area 100 miles in diameter involving Indiana and Kentucky around Louisville reported mass electrical issues with radios, vehicles, lights blinking, and transformers blowing up on February 15, 2015. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Kentucky Light
Richmond – On February 13, 2015, around 7:30 PM, I was outside on my front porch filming a low bright light in the west.
It was very low and pulsated very bright and that’s what caught my eye. As I was filming I saw a moving blinking object underneath it moving quickly.
I focused in on the moving object and filmed it on my 8mm video camera as it went over the interstate signs and over the trees, till I could not film it any more.
I was like what is this, wow. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Louisiana Orb
Baton Rouge— Just before noon on February 9, 2015, I was on my patio photographing a Boeing 737 when I noticed another object in the camera view finder. I snapped a couple of quick photos and when I tried to snap the next photo, the auto focus couldn’t focus on the object. After a couple of unsuccessful attempts, I switched the lens to manual focus and looked back up to a bright white spherical object that seemed to float. It was 3 miles up and I suspect it was a balloon. After watching it for 6 seconds, I tried to locate it but could not spot the object again. It drifted a little left to right, while moving away and higher. It was a lot slower than the plane. The plane moved past the object. The aircraft was American Airlines Flight AA1698, San Juan to Dallas, Boeing 737-823, Call Sign N858NN, at 37,000 feet. My camera is a Canon T3i Rebel digital SLR with 300 mm lens. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Maryland Blimp like Object
On February 7, 2015 at 11:17 AM heading north on I- 95 my son spotted a grey blimp looking object. I was driving about 75 MPH with wife and two sons. One son noticed the object and we all saw the object just over the trees. It followed us along I-95 north for 7 minutes keeping up with traffic then slowing down then moving fast again keeping up with us. There were no visible mooring lines or a cabin below this object that you normally see under a blimp. The object moved wings first rather than nose first unlike a blimp. There were no windows or writing on the object. What really caught our attention was how fast this object accelerated and was keeping up with us. It slowed and accelerated right back parallel with us. As we traveled along I 95 North, the object moved out of sight behind some trees. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Ocean City— The woman woke up around 4 AM, on February 12, 2015, and witnessed a light between her blinds and decided to check it. Upon taking a closer look, she realized it was not the moon. The object appeared to be glowing yellow and white with red light near its tips. It was stationary and floating high in the sky and was about the size of the moon. Upon recognizing the object as anomalous, she took 5 pictures of the object with her cell phone. There is a visible house in the images. Upon taking the images, she went back to sleep. Upon waking, there was no object. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Montana Orb
Great Falls — While walking the dog, these lights were observed below cloud level hovering above Maelstrom Air Force Base on February 13, 2015.
Two jets took off from Great Falls International Airport and flew off in the direction of the lights. The Air National Guard operates from the airport.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Ohio Craft
I was at the pharmacy and in the window I saw three strange objects on February 12, 2015, and they flew off one by one. They had a circle with triangle wings that slanted. The speed was faster than any speed I have ever seen.
They only appeared on the window and seamed transparent in real vision. I lost the objects as they flew off the screen at incredible speed. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Oregon Blue Ball
Klamath Falls— I stopped to take a series of pictures of the trails in the sky on February 12, 2015, forming an X against a cloudy background directly towards the sun.
I didn’t see the blue ball of light until after I viewed the images. The ball appears to move and at one point it flashes a purple fringe.
The blue ball of light is also covered with smaller white lights. It could be dust or some strange camera artifact but some of the images it looks like the ball is in motion. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Vermont Possible Cattle Abductions
Fairfax – I am in my mid-thirties and live with my wife on a hill overlooking a small valley of trees and cow pastures, which rests between the towns of Milton, and Cambridge. I am a well educated, rational biomedical laboratory technician. My wife is also well educated, stubbornly skeptical – about strange phenomenon.
On the evening December 4th, 2014 at 9 PM, I noticed a very bright light through our basement window. I ran outside and saw a half mile away toward Vermont’s highest mountain peak an extremely bright object with pulsating red and blue lights. I was fearful of being abducted and went inside to tell my wife, “You need to see this.” She was able to see it as I noticed another similar bright object to the north. I retrieved my Celestron Model #21035 telescope and spotted the UFO with light shining down on cow pasture. It was disc-shaped bright, colorful, pulsating and bouncing UFO. The pulsating red and blue lights appeared to come from within the craft, passing out through its walls.
The light on the ground below the craft was orangish illuminating a white angular object. I then saw two corners of a triangular black and camouflaged craft two hundred yards closer to us that was slowly rocking up and down. My wife said, “I feel weird…I’m scared.” Then the pulsating disc was calmer and less bright and the red light was gone and the craft appeared to settle into a lower-energy state. The triangular craft remained in the same position for another thirty minutes.
Just before going to bed, I saw that the disc and triangle were higher with one corner pointing downward. I saw the full form of the triangle, which was hovering with a faint circular orange light at each of three corners.
The next day, my neighbor said she had seen a similar object at 9 p.m. on December 3rd and 4th. On December 5th, two bright, pulsating objects appeared shortly before midnight, a half mile farther from my house. I watched for over an hour as they followed a grid pattern above the tree tops near the river. A quick scan of the internet reveals that Vermont is currently a hotspot for these phenomena.
My mother, who is a PhD research scientist, spotted a silent triangular craft in our largest city last year. NOTE: The above image is a rendering. This case is under investigation by Chief Investigator Ken Pfeifer of MUFON Vermont.
West Virginia Triangle
Inwood — The witness, her daughter and step-brother were driving to a grocery store on February 3, 2015 when they noticed a large triangular object flying overhead about 7 PM. A few minutes later they reached the store and began observing the object taking photos and video. The object was dark with a light at each apex of the triangle and several more lights not visible on the images. The object continued to circle the area and was flying low and slow emitting a low humming sound for 30 minutes. The witness’s mother heard military jets fly overhead right after the object was sighted. These jets were thought to have been scrambled from the nearby West Virginia Air National Guard at Martinsburg, WV. The lights flashed and appeared to change color in unison and were sometimes green, white or orange. The witnesses were positive that the object was not a conventional aircraft.
Note: A similar object was reported to the local county sheriff’s office and MUFON. A report and photos were posted on the sheriff’s office website. The report and photos have since been removed. That report follows:
I was at home. I received a call from a relative at 10:20 PM on January 8, 2015. The relative asked if I’d heard what was occurring with an unknown object flying throughout the area. The relative then stated since shortly after 9:00 PM, 143 witnesses had contacted the County Sheriff’s Department reporting an unknown object flying very low and making no sound. The relative then sent me pages from the County Sheriff’s webpage where I was able to read eyewitness reports and official responses. Fifteen minutes later the police were reporting that the object was flying low over a main building in town. I went to the window and saw a low large slow moving object with a single whitish/blue light in the front and two lights in the back. There was considerable distance between the two sides at the back and there appeared to be a “raise” at the point where the lights were connected. The body of the object the lights were adhered to was dark to dark gray. After 30 seconds it turned slowly in a SW direction at which point I lost sight of it.
I remember feeling odd about how something of that size was able to move that slowly at such a low altitude without stalling. The object continued to be reported to the local authorities and police website for another 45 minutes. Official responses continued to the ongoing multiple sightings being reported up to 11:20 PM at which time the Sheriff’s department website was closed. Prior to this, county officials stated the local Air Guard couldn’t pick the object up on radar because it was flying at a number of 81.0 and the radar was set at 121.6 to 123.4. Officials indicated two jets had been dispatched from a nearby Maryland Air Base to investigate. Checking with FAA and local military Air Guard/regional airports the object was neither military nor civilian. Although my sighting occurred at 10:35 PM. the first reported sighting occurred at 9:10 PM. There were also numerous pictures sent to the website of the object. Although the lights match what I saw the darkened body in at least one of the pictures looks different. I saw the object from its left side and the picture appears to have been taken from below the object.
More Notes: I accessed the WV 167th Airlift Wing National Guard Website and verified that it is located at Martinsburg, WV. Thanks to William Puckett, Director Http://www.UFOsnw.com
Worldwide UFO Sightings
Argentina Light and Disc
Moreno— I was on holiday in Sierra de los Padres and taking photographs and could not see well because of the light of the sun that prevented me clearly from seeing the picture he had drawn.
We were high on Rock Mountain where I was able to take the picture.
They spent about twenty days until I realized that the object had managed to get in the photo on February 2, 2013.
Note: Object may be a reflection of the sun on the lens.
San Juan — A group of workers on their way to the Ullum Hydroelectric Plant in San Juan, on January 25, 2015, were startled by a strange presence in the sky. The object at the bottom of the picture is a blow up of the top object.
One of them reached for his camera and managed to photograph the alleged apparition. The witnesses claim the object was moving, yet suspended in mid-air. www.sanjuan8.com
Australia Light
Darwin — I was at my university accommodation and was getting ready for bedtime on February 5, 2015, and noticed the object in the sky. When I first looked at it, I instantly realized it was not an airplane, not ISS, not an Iridium satellite or any other satellite because the characteristics of the light were not those of a reflection. Satellites are visible at that time.
The light emanating from the object seemed to be pulsating at 1.3 seconds. It moved in a path and faded out of sight. I felt excited to see an unidentified object and grabbed my phone, and then I started filming the object.
Note: Image is enhanced. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Brazil Shoe Box Shape
Manaus — I woke up too early that day at 5 AM, so I went out to smoke a cigarette and saw a bright light like a star coming from the northeast and making a strange zigzag movement like a snake. I called my wife and she agreed it was an UFO. I had an experience 17 years ago when I saw a shoe box shaped with a light on the inner side in Algodoal a small fishing village. The other witness and I saw the object fly toward us late at night and then stopping at the window of a house. It made square movements up and down and side to side. The other witness saw what I saw and we started to run and I could feel my heel hit my butt. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Canada Lights
Ada, Saskatchewan — I live on the edge of a small community with very few street lights and my back yard is a good spot for star gazing on August 4. 2013. It was a perfect clear night when I saw two large bright lights just above a tree row 500 feet from me. I was puzzled because they weren’t there earlier as the lights started moving toward me at 10:07 PM, silently. The object slowly moved toward the edge of the community; with a white front light and a yellow l e D aft. As it was passing over head I used the faint star light of the Milky Way to see if it was 1 or 2 aircraft. A good distance in front of the light the faint star light was blocked out and continued to be blocked until after the rear light passed. The light emitted never reached the ground like a search light. The lights at the altitude it passed over me would be 10 to 20 feet in diameter. Its speed was no more than 20 mph. I observed it pass over town and gain altitude. Total time observed was7 minutes. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Peru – Disc
Lima— The sighting occurred on the morning of February 10, 2015, and was witnessed by several members of the production crew, including the show’s host Renzo Reggiardo, and a Peruvian congressman.
It was filmed from three camera angles on TV in Lima, Peru. Source: Eduardo Chávez Guerra/YouTube.
Barcelona – My kids and I noticed beginning in January a strange repetitive phenomenon of three low bright lights. If we look in the direction of the sea one light is on the left, one is in front and one on the right that looks not far away. These three points in the sky strongly change colors to green-red-white at the second. We noticed that they are showing up there a couple of times a week now for more than a month. . We can see the difference clearly between stars and these objects in our clear sky’s. We started to make a series of pictures at different dates. The time between the pictures in the series are not more than seconds.
The objects are shape shifting and much larger than Chinese balloons and change colors, shapes and being static. You can see the objects changing shape. I would like to hear what you think about this. Thanks to Veronica
Ukraine Lights
Odessa — I was awakened by the words of my wife: “My dear I see a UFO!” I ran to the window and saw a big strange disk-shaped object hovering in the sky at 6:14 AM on February 3, 2014. Odessa has an international airport and I often see many different aircraft from my window, but this was very different. The size of this object was 10 times larger then an aircraft so I began recording with my Nokia 6700 Gold 5 megapixel camera. The quality of the video was poor so I got my Canon EOS 600D, but it was too dark and I was unable to focus. I decided to make a video at dawn for a better quality but the object dissolved in the sky and a cloud began to form around it; as it made a very strange sound. I can’t send the original photos since they are included in the video. Thanks to William Puckett, Director Http://www.UFOsnw.com
UK England Orb
In a clear blue sky a glow attracted my attention as it moved from west to the eastern horizon in about twenty minutes of very slow movement. On July 10, 2010, it looks different when enlarged with four dark areas around object which forms a letter H. I am 66 years old and was going out my front door and have seen strange objects before. I am a keen aircraft show visitor so unlikely to be fooled by conventional aircraft.
My first thought was that it was not conventional aircraft. The object was glowing, and I got my digital camera and zoomed in 50 xs on the object that formed the letter H, The object then moved very slowly from directly above me to disappear over the trees eastward. I was a little excited as it flew east. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Liverpool – Watching my son play soccer and taking photos on February 14, 2015.
When I got home and put the pictures on Twitter one picture only had a disc like object in the picture which is not easily explained.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Uruguay Lights
Piriapolis — I have two consecutive photos that have lights in the sky and the truth I’m just wondering whether it was an effect of light or a UFO.
I admit that on November 2, 2013, I saw nothing in the sky. I saw the lights in the photos the next night.

‘I believe there WAS something from another world at Britain’s Area 51′: Film director speaks out
‘I believe there WAS something from another world at Britain’s Area 51′: Film director speaks out
Do new photos prove that alien life exists after all? (Picture: File)
A new film has shed light on one of the eeriest UFO incidents in British history – an encounter with a strange, triangular spacecraft which made front page news in 1983.
On Boxing Day, US military personnel in Suffolk saw a metallic triangular object in a clearing – and other weird lights in the dark.
Daniel Simpson, director of the new film, The Rendlesham UFO Incident, who investigated evidence including audio recordings from soldiers, said, ‘It is my belief that the USAF did actually see something that is from another world or dimension.
‘Former witness Lt Col Charles Halt has gone on record to state this also.’
A memo written by Halt to Ministry of Defence staff helped fuel conspiracy theories about the incident after the News of the World’s headline, ‘UFO lands in Suffolk – and that’s official’.
One witness claimed to have telepathically ‘received’ a binary code, which has never been deciphered.
The Rendlesham Forest sightings are often described as ‘Britain’s Roswell’.
Simpson told Starburst Magazine, ‘It’s one of, if not the, biggest UFO incident ever recorded along with the Roswell case and it took place over 3 consecutive nights. I think that the fascination in the case is amplified as a result of the witnesses being multiple USAF personnel, with the addition that one of those people was a Lieutenant Colonel who made an audio recording on a dictaphone as the events unfolded. Whatever one believes happened, it remains a great mystery that deserves a valid response.’
Despite the release of a large Ministry of Defence file regarding the incident, UFO enthusiasts believe there is still information being covered up.
Reports by retired soldiers such as Colonel Charles Halt sound seriously spooky: ‘While in Rendlesham Forest, our security team observed a light that looked like a large eye, red in colour, moving through the trees.
‘After a few minutes this object began dripping something that looked like molten metal.’
Staff Sergeant Jim Penniston wrote, ‘The object was producing red and blue light. The blue light was steady and projecting under the object. It was definitely mechanical in nature.’
Others reported losing time periods, mysterious light – and strange howling noises ‘like women screaming’.
One of the drawings produced by soldiers after the Rendlesham incident (Picture: Rex)
Sceptics claim that the marks of the UFO’s landing are, in fact, rabbit holes.
Multiple soldiers made drawings and descriptions of craft which resemble classic ‘flying saucers’.
The new petition demands, ‘To release ALL witnesses and Military Personnel involved with the “Rendlesham Forrest UFO Incident” from the Official Secrets Act.’
Nigel Watson, author of the Haynes UFO Investigations Manual says, ‘The Rendlesham case is one of Britain’s most fascinating UFO incidents. The problem with the alleged crashes is that no one has ever provided unambiguous evidence to support them. It is always claimed that all the remains of crashed flying saucers and even their pilots are whisked off by Government retrieval teams.’
Update:Further investigations are beginning to point to the possibility of an underwater volcanic hill based on more recent scans.[3] More information should come to the surface. Some believe this new explanation may be a cover up but that position is currently based on a belief only.
Portuguese news reported the discovery of a very large under water pyramid first discovered by Diocleciano Silva between the islands of São Miguel and Terceira in the Azores of Portugal. According to claims, the structure is said to be perfectly squared and oriented by the cardinal points. Current estimates obtained using GPS digital technology put the height at 60 meters with a base of 8000 square meters. The Portuguese Hydrographic Institute of the Navy currently has the job of analyzing the data to determine whether or not the structure is man-made.
“The pyramid is perfectly shaped and apparently oriented by the cardinal points,” Silva told Diário Insular, the local newspaper.
The pyramid was found in an area of the mid-Atlantic that has been underwater for about 20,000 years. Considering this is around the time of the last ice age where glaciation was melting from its peak 2000 years prior, whatever civilization, human or not, that was around before the ice age, could be responsible for building the pyramid. While the Portuguese Navy still hasn’t determined the origins, many might question why this hasn’t been first reported on sooner than late 2012. Certainly the NOAA who studies volcanic activity in the area of the pyramid would have discovered the pyramid through sonar imaging and so forth since the area is heavily studied due to volcanic activity. Either the NOAA hasn’t yet come across it, they are hiding what they have found, or the pyramid doesn’t exist. The last theory does not seem to be likely given the authenticity of the find.
To further support the idea that this pyramid could have been built by different civilizations, archeologists from the Portuguese Association of Archaeological Research have recently discovered evidence on Pico island that suggests their belief that humans existed in the Azores region before the arrival of the Portuguese thousands of years ago. As of today, there is still no explanation for who created the rock art found on the islands. Was the pyramid built by whatever civilization existed prior to the Portuguese? Is it possibly not even man-made?
Here is the Portuguese news report with English subtitles for those who wish to look into the authenticity of the claims.
The Azores are an interesting region as they are a chain of nine volcanic islands in three main groups that are roughly 930 miles west of Lisbon. They are all situated around the fault lines between the North American, Eurasian and African tectonic plates. An interesting place to have a pyramid given the energetic qualities often associated with pyramids.
This video discusses some interesting bits of information that explore the authenticity of the story and the possible location visually using some maps. It is important to note that exact coordinates of the pyramid have not been released. He believes that there may be a discovery of 2 more pyramids in the area as images suggest there could be a design link to that of the pyramids built in Egypt.

Mars One Suspends Work on Robotic Missions
Mars One Suspends Work on Robotic Missions

WASHINGTON — A private organization that recently selected finalists for one-way human missions to Mars in the mid-2020s has quietly suspended work on a pair of robotic missions, putting into question plans to launch those spacecraft in 2018.
Mars One, a Dutch-based nonprofit organization, announced in December 2013 it was starting work on two robotic missions it planned to launch in 2018 as precursors to its human expeditions to Mars. One spacecraft would orbit Mars and serve as a communications relay, while the other would be a lander to test technologies planned for later crewed missions.
At that time, Mars One announced it had selected Lockheed Martin to begin work on the lander mission and Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd. (SSTL) to start work on the orbiter. Mars One awarded contracts to each company to perform concept studies of the planned missions.
“These missions are the first step in Mars One’s overall plan of establishing a permanent human settlement on Mars,” Bas Landsorp, Mars One chief executive and co-founder, said in a December 2013 press conference here announcing the missions. “We believe we are in very good shape to make this happen.”
However, both companies confirmed with SpaceNews that, since the completion of those study contracts, they have not received additional contracts from Mars One to continue work on those missions.
“SSTL delivered the concept study for the Mars One communications system last year,” SSTL spokeswoman Joelle Sykes said Feb. 16. “There are no follow-on activities underway at the moment.”
“Lockheed Martin has concluded the initial contract with Mars One in which we performed mission formulation studies and developed payload interface specifications to support the selection of a payload suite for the 2018 Mars robotic lander,” the company said in a statement Feb. 17. “We continue to maintain an open channel of communications with Mars One and await initiation of the next phase of the program.”
Mars One has said little publicly about the status of its robotic missions since that December 2013 announcement. In January, it announced the winner of a university competition to develop an experiment that would fly on the lander. At that time, the organization said the lander was still scheduled to launch in 2018, but offered no details about the status of its development.
In a Feb. 17 email, Lansdorp said that Mars One was focused for the time being on addressing a study released last fall by a student-led group at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). That report, which examined the life support requirements for Mars One’s planned crewed missions, concluded that flaws in Mars One’s designs could result in the deaths of crewmembers within months of landing.
“Especially with the recent MIT (student) report, we’re focusing on releasing the mission concepts study on life support systems by Paragon,” Lansdorp said, referring to Paragon Space Development Corp., a Tucson, Arizona-based developer of life support technologies. The Paragon study, he said, should be released in March.
Lansdorp offered no additional details about the status of Mars One’s robotic missions, declining to answer questions about the timeline for awarding follow-on contracts. “As soon as we are ready to announce follow-up contracts, we will do so by means of a press release,” he said.
In addition to the life support study, Mars One has also been working on selecting finalists for those first crewed missions. On Feb. 16, the organization revealed the group of 100 “Round Three” astronaut candidates, selected from a pool of 705 semi-finalists announced in May 2014. These 100 will participate in “group challenges” that will eventually lead to the selection of six groups of four people each to serve as initial crews for one-way missions to Mars that it plans to start launching in 2024.
Those plans, though, may depend on the progress Mars One makes on its robotic missions, and there time is of the essence. Lockheed Martin noted in its statement that its proposed Mars One lander is based on a “very mature” design used on NASA’s Phoenix Mars Lander mission launched in 2007 and the InSight lander it is building for launch in March 2016. Despite that heritage, the company said, “we would have to start construction very soon to launch an InSight clone in the 2018 window.”
Mysterious Geoglyphs of Amazonia May Show Ancient Humanity Had an Major Impact on Rainforest
Mysterious Geoglyphs of Amazonia May Show Ancient Humanity Had an Major Impact on Rainforest
Evidence of ancient Amazonian civilization deep under the canopy of the rainforest is hoping to be revealed under a new initiative by international scientific agencies. Questions will be raised on how the ancient populations impacted the rainforest thousands of years ago.
A project grant of 1.7m-euro (£1.25m; $1.9m) from the European Research Council is backing the endeavor of a UK-led, international research team. They will be employing drones and laser instruments to detect hidden geoglyphs and evidence of ancient communities below canopy-level.
The unusual earthworks, which include square, straight, and ring-like ditches, were first uncovered in 1999, after large areas of forest were cleared for cattle grazing. Since then, hundreds of the earthen foundations have been found in a region more than 150 miles across, covering northern Bolivia and Brazil’s Amazonas state.
BBC News reports the aim of the project is to discover the “scale and activities of populations living in the late pre-Columbian period (the last 3,000 years before the Europeans arrived in the 1490s).”
The international team will be investigating the nature of the geometric earthen shapes, and looking to establish whether the sites demonstrate an ancient collective behavior.
Dr. Jose Iriarte of Exeter University, UK tells BBC News, "While some researchers think that Amazonia was inhabited by small bands of hunter-gatherers and shifting cultivators who had a minimal impact on the environment, and that the forest we see today is pristine and untouched for thousands of years - mounting evidence is showing this may not be the case.”
"This evidence suggests that Amazonia may have been inhabited by large, numerous, complex and hierarchical societies that had a major impact on the environment; what we call the 'cultural parkland hypothesis'," he continues.
Until recently this type of search for vegetation-shrouded earthworks would have proven near impossible for researchers. Drones and LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) technology make these investigations possible today. LiDAR was developed in the 1960s to analyze oceans and ice in the Arctic, but has been employed since in topography, geology and mapping.

Archaeologists want to shed light on the dating and purpose of the geoglyphs, dwellings and ditches, which largely remain a mystery. More than 450 earthworks have been located in cleared areas of the rainforest. Some of the located works are clustered on a high plateaus, suggesting they may have been used for defense, however, others have theorized they were used for drainage or for channeling water, as they’re often near spring water sources. Others point to the geometric layouts, suggesting a ceremonial or religious function.

If the team is able to find evidence of ancient, large-scale occupation, this will lend weight to the idea that the rainforest we know today may be a result of the presence of early humanity.
Dr. Iriarte explains, "We want to see what is the human footprint in the forest and then inform policy, because it may be the case that the very biodiversity that we want to preserve is the result of the past historical manipulation of this forest.”
The initiative was announced at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in California. The project findings may be used to shape future policy on sustainable forest use and the preservation of historical sites.

Farmers in the southern parts of the US often tell stories of livestock being drained of blood by the elusive chupacabra. Check out this documentary on the blood sucking beast
Our friend Streetcap1 captured again a strange object above Earth.
This time a strange, doughnut-shaped object was spotted in a video made from the NASA International Space Station (ISS) live stream on February 18, 2015.
Some of the best footage to date of the infamous and elusive black triangle has been submitted to MUFON on today, the 12th of January. The sighting took place in Royorsford, Pennsylvania back in July of 2013 when the witness states that they were driving home from the local 7/11 on a warm summer night. The witness reports seeing the triangular object hovering over houses that were around 3,500 sq. feet in size, to give a size reference to the object. The viewer was not alone however, and had two other witnesses with him or her in the vehicle.
I would be willing to go out on the limb to say that the craft that this witness observed was a man made, black budget funded TR-3B or variant thereof. And with the amount of R&D taking place along the Eastern Seaboard it just seems all the more likely that we have a homegrown UFO on our hands.
The witness even goes as far to have filed a police report regarding the object.
Medeoprichter Blink-182: "Ik heb buitenaardse wezens gezien"
Medeoprichter Blink-182: “Ik heb buitenaardse wezens gezien”
De voormalige leadzanger van de Amerikaanse rockband Blink-182, Tom DeLonge, zegt enige tijd geleden buitenaardse wezens te hebben gezien toen hij in de buurt van de militaire basis Area 51 aan het kamperen was.
“Ik zat met een paar vrienden rond het kampvuur,” vertelt de muzikant aan Paper Magazine. “We ging rond één à twee uur slapen, maar ik werd ineens rond drie uur weer wakker. Het leek alsof ik geëlektrocuteerd werd. Ik deed mijn ogen open en zag dat het kampvuur nog aanstond. Buiten de tent waren iets van 20 wezens aan het praten. Ik maakte mezelf wijs dat ze ons geen pijn zouden doen. Ze spraken ook heel onduidelijk. Ik sloot mijn ogen en toen ik drie uur later wakker werd was het kampvuur uit.”
DeLonge is al langer geïnteresseerd in buitenaards leven. Op zijn site Strange Times plaatst hij informatie over UFO’s en in 1999 schreef hij het nummer ‘Aliens Exist’ dat op het album Enema of the State verscheen.
Tegenover Paper Magazine zegt DeLonge niet alleen dat hij aliens heeft gezien, maar ook dat de overheid weet dat ze bestaan. “Ik ben hier al geruime tijd mee bezig,” zei hij. “Ik heb bronnen die zeggen dat ik door de overheid gevolgd wordt. Mijn telefoons worden afgeluisterd.”
DeLonge sprak ook van 150 uur videomateriaal waarin ‘topgeheime getuigenissen’ te zien zouden zijn over een geheim Amerikaans ruimteprogramma. Hij zegt een deel van het materiaal in zijn huis te hebben bewaard.
De muzikant zegt verder dat een collega van hem het slachtoffer is geworden van experimenten met mind control. Op woensdag twitterde hij: “Net een video bekeken van de NASA-directeur die zegt dat hij gelooft in leven op Mars.”
(N.Morgan) This is the one time that drones have actually come in handy and for a good purpose, this drone in UK captured a UFO gliding through the sky Over Orford Hotel. The clip was taken from aerial footage filmed by David Greatorex over the Gorsey Lane building last week.
Orford Hotel landlord Christopher Barral added: “Once the film was downloaded from the drone it has shown a surprising phenomenon, a potential UFO in Orford.
“Has there been any further history of UFO sightings in Warrington?”
Recently, an announcement has been made that the much-awaited photographic slides of an alien taken in 1947 will be provided to the public on May 5, 2015 during an event in Mexico City to be presented by Mexican journalist Jaime Maussan.
A trailer for an approaching documentary on the slides has been featured as part of the announcement. Interestingly, a screenshot from the trailer may have showed the actual so-called alien photograph.
Produced by Slidebox Media, the documentary trailer may reveal much more than what the researchers intended. The trailer provides some background information about the slides and the original owners of the photos. But, it seems that the trailer also presents a hint of what the alien in the slides looks like through an image from the computer graphics.
Original slide has been blurred whenever it has been shown in the documentary or other researchers’ presentations. However, in one scene in the documentary, a researcher uses a magnifier in looking at one of the slides.
Founder of The UFO Chronicles website, Frank Warren, zoomed in on the slide, and it resulted in a clearer picture of what the alien actually looks like. The more defined picture shows some kind of a body lying on a stretcher looking thing with a ruler nearby. It may have been a clearer version of the slide that has been deliberately blurred.
Don Schmitt and Tom Carey, two veteran UFO researchers, have examined the authenticity of the slides, and they are both convinced that a genuine extraterrestrial being can be seen on the slides. The alien being is believed to be from Roswell event in July 1947 that was recovered by the American military.
The two researchers claimed that they have talked to military witnesses of the Roswell aliens, and they can confirm that the alien in the slides is similar to what the witnesses have described.

Daily 2 Cents: Huge UFO Hovered Over Oregon Highway -- World's Most Dangerous Toy -- Blink-182 Guitarist Believes He's In Danger
Daily 2 Cents: Huge UFO Hovered Over Oregon Highway -- World's Most Dangerous Toy -- Blink-182 Guitarist Believes He's In Danger
Huge UFO Hovered Over Oregon Highway
Portland, Oregon - 2/17/2015: We were driving from Portland to my son's house and saw several arching lights in the shape of a disc. We stopped to take pictures of the unmoving craft it sat there as we watched it hovering. Amazed at the size of the ship we had to stop and take a better look. It didn't move an inch even after we left back to on the road to Lewiston.
Location: Next to exit 25 eastbound - MUFON CMS
NOTE: Seems to be in the vicinity of Rooster Rock State Park along the Columbia River...Lon
'World's most dangerous toy' now on display in museum
An extremely rare example of a science kit dubbed ‘the most dangerous toy of all time’ has gone on display at the Ulster Museum in Belfast, Northern Ireland. When originally sold in 1951 the Atomic Energy Lab came complete with radioactive discs to make around 150 different experiments possible.
The kits - containing uranium ore and sources of alpha, beta and gamma radiation - were aimed at a niche market in the US and only a small number are thought to have survived intact. The $50 cost equates to around $450 (£300) today. It has been purchased from an American toy dealer by National Museums NI and will is on display as part of a new Elements exhibition.
Curator of Palaeontology Dr Mike Simms said importing the 65-year-old kit from the US posed major difficulties with authorities on both sides of the Atlantic, even though the surviving radioactive items had been removed before shipping. Dr Simms added: “I think visitors will find it amazing and amusing that this set allowed budding young scientists to measure radioactivity or uranium in the comfort of their own homes. Perhaps it wouldn’t pass today’s health and safety standards but it is the perfect fit for the Elements exhibition.”
Supported by the Foyle Foundation, Friends of the Ulster Museum, Power NI and parent company Viridian Group, the exhibition is the first of its kind in the UK. It explores the periodic table with a series of themes that encompass life and death, wealth and fashion, art and technology, colour and light. Visitors can discover where elements were created, how they occur naturally, what they look like, how we use them and why they can be dangerous.
NOTE: My Dad had one of these Gilbert 'Atomic Energy Labs' stored in the backroom of our family hobby shop for many years. I was told that my Grandfather originally purchased 3 of these sets to sell in the shop. BTW, I wasn't allowed to play with the kit. I have no idea what became of it. A. C. Gilbert Company also produced the 'Erector Set' and manufactured the 'American Flyer Trains'. I once owned one of the early Gilbert Chemistry sets and other lab equipment when I was a kid. These 'toys' that would NOT be marketed today. Screw today's video games...I'd prefer my old 1960's chemistry lab any day! (a 8x8 ft wooden utility shed in our backyard...which I once set ablaze by accident). Lon
Woman kills son to save him from embarrassment...because his ears were too big
A mother who throttled her 10-year-old son to death because she thought his big ears were ruining his life is facing a murder charge in Turkey. Nuray Sacan, 37, had paid for the boy to have cosmetic surgery in Gazi Hospital in the capital Ankara, but when she turned up to see the results she told surgeons she was unhappy with the way it turned out.
So she took the youngster to the women’s toilet in the early hours of the morning and choked him to death with her own scarf. She was caught when she fled the hospital in her car but hit another vehicle and confessed to the killing while she was being taken back to hospital in an ambulance. “Both his ears had become even bigger after the surgery.
“He became very ugly. He would have felt even more ashamed in front of his friends. I did it to save him such embarrassment,” Sacan said. She claimed she had paid for the surgery because her son had suffered years of bullying and teasing because of his sticking out ears. “I was trying to protect him from a lifetime of pain.” But surgeon Dr Metin Yilmaz, who carried out the operation said: “I am astonished she would think that.
“The operation was a simple one and it was a complete success. There were no post-operative issues and he was due to go home.” Gazi Hospital chief surgeon Dr Kadri Altok added: “We can’t understand it. The boy’s mother did not seem to have any psychological problems and the operation went perfectly.” Police spokesman Alper Tore confirmed: “A 37-year-old woman is in custody over the death of her son.” - news.com.au
Blink-182 Guitarist Believes He's In Danger...Knows Too Much About Aliens
On the beginning of his UFO-loving days and how he has “government sources”:
What’s funny, two decades ago when I got into this, it was such a “the world is flat” scenario, and here’s Tom running around about UFOs and they’d just laugh it off. But now, NASA is holding symposiums on the inevitability of finding life in the universe. The Vatican is talking about, yes, there’s life out there, and how it interferes or doesn’t interfere with the church’s view of existence.
You have to understand, I’ve been involved in this for a long time. I have sources from the government. I’ve had my phone taped. I’ve done a lot of weird stuff in this industry — people wouldn’t believe me if I told them. But this is what happens when you start getting on an email chains with hundreds of scientists from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and different universities around the country, and you start outing seniors scientists from Lockheed Martin talking about the reality of this stuff, guys that hold 30 patents, guys that work underground out in the Nevada test sites in Area 51. It goes far beyond just saying, “Hey, that little light in the sky, that’s a little green man.” That doesn’t lend the right gravity to the topic.
On how his extensive research has taken him way beyond simply believing in “little green men”:
People will be like “Oh, you believe in UFOs” [laughs], but I’m reading books on physics, I’m reading books on the secret space program, I’m talking to people that work underground for six months at a time, that are confiding in me about the national security initiatives. I’ve literally read 200 books on the subject, and I don’t spend my time looking at UFO reports or talking to little green men. I’m way past that. If anybody tells you there’s no life in universe, you should be turned off. That’s just such a dumb thing to say. It’s totally, universally accepted amongst the country’s elite scientific establishments that there’s life everywhere. The question is what kind, where, how’d they get here, what are they doing when they get here, and how do we communicate with them? That’s when you start reading books about the mind and consciousness, and telepathy and ESP. It’s a whole different program.
On that time he believed he made contact with an alien while camping at Area 51:
We had two nights. We did one outside of a secret base called China Lake. And that was on the flight path to Area 51, which is known as Groom Lake. We camped out at the northern end of that, about 200 miles from the nearest staff location. We were above an area called Tonopah, which is where they test-fly a lot of different things. So if you remember, I was talking about a person that was gathering all that footage for the congressional hearing. That person was telling me that the big belief, which I had corroborated by a university professor that was in the know, by the way, that the communication of this particular phenomenon is the frequency of thought. So part of communicating and making contact is shutting your mind down and being able to project your thoughts. And this guy was telling me about it, and this whole protocol for how it works. When we went out there the first night, we decided to run through this protocol where you project your thoughts. So we decided to do it, and we were up mad late, but nothing happened. I kept telling the guys: if anything was going to happen, it would happen at three in morning, because that’s the time when things like this happen. Don’t ask me why. We put about four logs on the fire, and everything is illuminated by the fire, and we fall asleep around one or two. I woke up right around three a.m. My whole body felt like it had static electricity, and I open my eyes and the fire is still going, and there’s a conversation going on outside the tent. It sounded like there were about 20 people there, talking. And instantly my mind goes, OK, they’re at our campsite, they’re not here to hurt us, they’re talking about shit, but I can’t make out what they’re saying. But they’re working on something. Then I close my eyes and wake up, and the fire is out and I have about three hours of lost time.
I get everyone up first thing in the morning and go, “Did anybody hear all the chatter last night? I couldn’t move my body, I was stuck there. I couldn’t hear anything.” And one of the guys I was with goes, “Yes! They were all around our tent, they were talking. I told you!” And the other guy slept right through it. He had no idea what we were talking about. [laughs] It sounded like English, but you couldn’t make out any words. You knew you weren’t threatened, you couldn’t move your body, but you were very aware of the conversation going on for a period of time. But this is the scary part. If you look up and study abductions of people, people that have had contact, and a lot of the stuff you can read from John Mack; he was [a member of] Harvard’s psychiatry department. He almost lost his job because he started writing books about UFOs and people getting abducted. Harvard tried to kick him out of the medical group, but they lost. He got hit by a car in mysterious circumstances. Pretty odd, right? But when you read his books and study what he was doing, a lot of people who have these contacts talk a lot about chatter, like you’re in the middle of people working. How fucking crazy is that? Nothing else. No footprints, no weird like marks or anything like that.
On whether he’s had his phone tapped by the government:
Yeah, yeah I did. For quite some time. Years ago, there was somebody who was gathering 150 hours of top secret testimony specifically for Congressional hearings on government projects and the US secret space program. People from NASA, Rome, the Vatican, you name it, they’re all on there. The top 36 hours that summarized the best parts of all of that footage, I had it hidden in my house for a period of time, and during that time I was flying this person out along with somebody that was Wernher von Braun‘s right-hand assistant. Wernher von Braun was a Nazi scientist that we brought over to build our Apollo rockets that got us to the moon, and on his deathbed he told this person a bunch of stuff, and I was flying them out to Los Angeles and we were taking certain meetings. At that time a lot of weird stuff started happening.
On a specific instance in which his knowledge of aliens almost got him in real trouble:
To give you an example, one time I remember bringing up a very specific craft that I believe we’re building, in secret, to emulate the phenomenon that our government has been observing for decades. So I started talking about the craft, and its magnetic slide system and how it displaces over 89% of the mass of the ship, how it ionizes the engine, how it glows — I went through the whole thing, and this engineer looks at me, this guy is 70 years old, and he goes, “You better be real fucking careful about what you’re talking about.” And I go, “Okay, so I’m close.” And he goes, “I’m not fucking kidding with you. You better be really fucking careful.” And he calls me up the next day and he goes, “I’ve had calls about you. If someone comes and asks you to get in their car, don’t fucking get in the car.” [laughs] And that’s the shit I’m dealing with.
Last night, I received the following information from a reader in Indiana. Incidentally, several readers have told me that Plainview, IN is well-known for UFO sightings. This report concerns a wide area and some of the strange events he has noticed recently:
I'm interested in UFOs and other phenomena - I live near Richmond, Indiana, the same town where the woman saw a flying manta ray and reported it to you. I think her sighting was that of a unidentified intelligent craft.
In the past 2 weeks, there have been many reports of power outages and electrical interference in the Louisville / Cincinnati / Indianapolis triangle. I don't know how many square miles this area involves, but these metro areas are all within 100 miles of each other.
In the same time period, myself and others have noticed an increase in UFO sightings in the same general area.
The string of lights seen by the witness in Plainview, IN was also seen in another location near the Ohio River west of Cincinnati just a few days before.
I believe the 'MIB' reported by the witness actually came from the Wright-Patterson airbase near Dayton, Ohio. These guys in the dark berets have been noticed in north central Kentucky and also had Ohio license plates.
Most of the UFO sightings have been orbs or cone-shaped lights of various colors - but mainly white and red.
I will continue to monitor this area and let you know if something else happens. Scott
NOTE:The reader seems to suggest that the electrical anomalies may be a result of UFO activity. It's been suggested at other sites before...I just don't know if such a wide area could be consumed. It's interesting to note that the following report was posted on the MUFON CMS this morning. I'm sure this is related to Scott's report...Lon
On 02/15/2015, at approximately 0105 hrs, my husband and I returned home in Borden, Indiana following an outing. First off, let me advise we did not see an object...but what happened, has not been explained satisfactory to any degree...AND SOMETHING BIG HAPPENED!!
Anyhow, as we stood in the kitchen of our home, the lights flickered throughout the entire house. They went completely out for about 3 seconds, back on again, completely out again for about 3 seconds, and then a very brief out again and back on. At the time, I thought nothing of it until I seen a post on Facebook from our local news station WAVE 3 news.
At 0154, they posted "Reports of power outages and lights flickering near Lower Hunters Trace. What are you experiencing?" First off, this area is located in Kentucky. No where near where I am located.
Also, It is not on the same power plant, lines, or grid as my area.
Louisville and the surrounding areas in Kentucky are supplied by the massive LGE and KU companies. While I receive power from a rural Co-op located in Hamburg, Indiana. I opened to comment that we had experienced flashes in Borden as well and was stunned at the comments that came prior to mine.
There were reports not only of power outages and lights blinking, people reported that their cars stalled on the highway requiring them to restart the vehicle. Although there were over a thousand comments, I seen no less than a dozen reports of vehicles stalling, headlights dimming, and the radio inside of the car going to static.
Shortly after all of the reports started coming in, I began to notice the widespread area over which these reports were coming in. As far West (of those who reported issues) as Corydon, Indiana and Brandenburg, Kentucky. As far north as Columbus, Indiana. As far South as Elizabethtown, Kentucky. And as far East as Madison, Indiana and Carrolton, Kentucky.
Further, one person commented and posted photos of a field fire caused by a transformer blowing at a substation (In Kentucky)managed by LGE. LGE issued a statement that the problems and outages were caused by this blown transformer and subsequent fire. Quickly most everyone (including the media) dismissed all of the electrical issues on this blown transformer and went on. The rest of us,...not so much.
Although the transformer could have caused the problems with electricity in Kentucky, it would have Zero effect on the power of Indiana residents and even less so, the electrical system in a vehicle, or a radio signal.
Those of us not so quick to dismiss, know something BIG happened. We know it affected Houses, Airports, Cars, and we believe that whatever happened...CAUSED the transformer to blow. However, we do not have answers even though we searched. Solar Activity was low, so the possibility of a flare was ruled out. We were left with debating only 3 possibilities; Computer Hack, an EMP; Extra-Terrestrial interference.
I don't know if anyone WITNESSED anything in the sky that night, but I do know a very widespread area experienced (a very scary) a massive electrical disturbance all at the very same time. I have included a map that shows the locations where people experienced issues. The locations were pulled from the people who commented in response to WAVE 3 asking if anyone else was experiencing outages and flashing lights. The reported locations are notated by the red stars.
Now mind you, this wasn't just a few houses with a flicker in the light bulbs, people commented they seen all lights go out at Standiford Field Airport in Louisville, Kentucky. All lights going out in a hospital (she didn't list which one), all lights going out in an entire Amazon Warehouse in Jeffersonville, Indiana, all lights on the Kennedy Bridge spanning the Ohio River blinking out, peoples cars stalling (who were 50 miles apart) on the road.
I am writing you because this was dismissed as a tranformer blowing "Equipment Malfunction." There is no way that this was the result of what everyone reported. - MUFON CMS
NOTE: OK...if anyone has more information, I'd appreciate a shout. Thanks...Lon

UFO mania: Breaking News! Flying Disc [CRASH] Into Frozen Lake? Canada Military [UFO-Recovery]...
UFO mania: Breaking News! Flying Disc [CRASH] Into Frozen Lake? Canada Military [UFO-Recovery]...
Could 1947 Just Have Happened Again? Reports Just Tonight! Original Correspondence As Follows Submitted To Thirdphaseofmoon! Quote Mark "Apparently a disc shaped craft was seen crashing through the ice on the lake, at least one person got photographic evidence but has since been detained by the Canadian military. UFO crash in rural Manitoba Canada: A UFO crash landed into a frozen lake within the last 24 hours on a Indian reservation in rural Manitoba. Mark: "I have contact with a former resident of the reservation and their family still lives on the reservation and informed them about the situation this evening.
I have also been informed that nobody is allowed to leave or enter the reservation at this time and that the military has been going door to door talking with residents. They are telling the residents that they are conducting emergency training exercises, but there has been an extreme cold front in Manitoba over the last 2 days and it is extremely dangerous to spend time outdoors for any period.
The military has moved in all their equipment effectively blocking any view of what may have crashed into the water or what they are doing there, but I'm sure they are recovering the evidence.
I will get back in touch with in a few hours, I was told the name of the reservation but it was very long and hard to pronounce, I will get the exact spelling of the reservation in a few hours when I meet with my contact and I will forward any new information over."

Breaking Tom Delonge Of Blink-182 Admits Alien Encounter At Area 51
Breaking Tom Delonge Of Blink-182 Admits Alien Encounter At Area 51
The Fortean Slip News 46 Today Chris and Steve talk about Tom Delonge admitting to an encounter with aliens at Area 51, a ghost caught on google street view and Jahlil Okafur says he believes in mermaids and bigfoot. This webcast is uncensored.
A retired U. S. Navy Petty Officer First Class Flight Engineer, who asked me to only call him “Brian.” His high strangeness experiences flying cargo and rescue in Antarctica were in the 1983 to 1997 time period and included several observations of aerial silver discs darting around over the Transantarctic Mountains. He and his crew also saw a big hole in the ice only about five to ten miles from the geographic South Pole (pink circle on map) that was supposed to be a No Fly Zone. But during an emergency medevac situation, they entered the No Fly Zone and saw what they were not supposed to see: an alleged entrance to a human and E. T. science research base created under the ice. Then at a camp near Marie Byrd Land, some dozen scientists disappeared for two weeks and when they re-appeared, Brian’s flight crew got the assignment to pick them up. Brian says they would not talk and “their faces looked scared.” Brian and his flight crew received several orders at different times to not talk and were sternly told that they didn’t see what they saw. But he was never asked to sign an official non-disclosure statement. So now that he’s retired, he has decided to share what he has seen and experienced because he knows non-humans are working on this planet. WITNESS STATEMENT I am a retired United States Navy LC130 Flight Engineer that retired after 20 years of service in 1997. I have been wanting to write you for a long time about my experience on the Antarctic continent with flying vehicles that I was told not to talk about. I served part of my 20 years in the Navy with a Squadron called Antarctic Development Squadron Six or VXE-6 as it was also known. I served with this squadron from around 1983 till I retired March of 1997. Being a flight engineer and flying more then 4000 hours in that capacity I have seen things that most people have not even imagined on the Continent of Antarctica. The land there seems more alien then earthly. Our deployments to this land started in late September and ended the end of February every year until the Squadron was decommissioned in 1999. This time of year was the summer season when most of the science was done do to warmer temps and 24 hours of daylight.
During my time in the squadron I flew to almost every part of the Antarctic Continent including the South Pole more the 300 times. McMurdo Station which is 3.5 hours of flying time from the South Pole station was the point of squadron operation during our yearly deployments. Between these two stations is a mountain range called the Trans Antarctic’s. With what we called Severe Clear weather from McMurdo to South Pole the Trans Antarctic’s are visible from the altitudes which the aircraft flew approximately 25,000 to 35,000 feet. On several flights to and from South Pole our crew viewed air vehicles darting around the tops of Trans Antarctic’s almost exactly in the same spot every time we would fly by and view them. This is very unusual for air traffic down there due to the fact that the only aircraft flying on the continent were our squadron aircraft. Every aircraft knew where the other aircraft were do to flight schedules being followed.
Another unique issue with South Pole station is that our aircraft was not allowed to fly over a certain area designated 5 miles from the station. The reason stated because of a air sampling camp in that area. This did not make any sense to any of us on the crew because on 2 different occasions we had to fly over this area. One time due to a medical evacuation of the Australian camp called Davis Camp. It was on the opposite side of the continent and we had to refuel at South Pole and a direct course to this Davis Camp was right over the air sampling station. The only thing we saw going over this camp was a very large hole going into the ice. You could fly one of our LC130 into this thing. It was after this medevac mission we where briefed by some spooks (Intelligence Agents I presumed) from Washington DC and told not to speak of the area we overflew. The other time we got close to “The air sampling Camp” we had navigation and electrical failures on the aircraft and was told to immediately depart the area and report to our squadron commanding officer when we returned to McMurdo.
Needless to say our pilot (Aircraft Commander) got his butt chewed and our crew was not on the South Pole supply run for over a month. There were many other times we saw things that was out of the ordinary. One outlying camp (near Marie Byrd Land) we dropped scientists and their equipment at was out of communication with McMurdo for 2 weeks. Our crew flew back to the camp to find out if the scientists were ok. We found no one there and no sign of any fowl play. The Radio was working fine as we called McMurdo to verify it working properly. We left the camp and flew back to McMurdo as ordered by our CO. A week later the Scientist showed back up to there camp and called McMurdo for someone to come pick them up. Our crew got the flight back there to pick them since we put them into that camp and we knew the terrain and location. None of the scientists would talk to any of the crew on the plane and to me they looked scared. As soon as we landed back at McMurdo they (Scientists) where put on another of our squadron aircraft and flown to Christchurch New Zealand. We never heard about them again. Their equipment that we brought back from the camp was put in quarantine and shipped back to the United States escorted by the same spooks that debriefed us about our fly over of the air sample camp/ large hole in the ice. I could go on and on about things and situations that I observed during my tour with VXE-6. Talk among the flight crews was that there is a UFO base at South Pole and some of the crew heard talk from some of the scientist working at the Pole of EBEs working with and interacting with the scientists at that air sampling camp/large ice hole.
Rode dwerg scheerde 70.000 jaar geleden door ons zonnestelsel
Rode dwerg scheerde 70.000 jaar geleden door ons zonnestelsel
Zo’n 70.000 jaar geleden passeerde een rode dwergster de Oortwolk aan de rand van ons zonnestelsel. De ster kwam vijf keer zo dicht bij onze zon als Proxima Centauri, de ster die op dit moment het dichtst bij de zon staat.
De rode dwerg, ‘ster van Scholz’ geheten, passeerde de zon op een afstand van ongeveer 0,8 lichtjaar, zo melden wetenschappers van de Universiteit van Rochester in het tijdschrift Astrophysical Journal Letters.
Op basis van simulaties hebben de onderzoekers vastgesteld dat sommige kometen in de Oortwolk waarschijnlijk uit hun baan raakten door dit object. Het is echter onwaarschijnlijk dat de ster voor een kometenregen heeft gezorgd.
Uit de baan van de ster kan worden afgeleid dat het hemellichaam 70.000 jaar geleden op 52.000 astronomische eenheden (0,8 lichtjaar) van de zon stond. Proxima Centauri staat ter vergelijking op 4,2 lichtjaar van de zon.
De astronomen schrijven dat ze er 98 procent zeker van zijn dat de ster door de buitenste Oortwolk is gegaan, een gebied aan de rand van ons zonnestelsel gevuld met biljoenen kometen. De snelheid van de ster van Scholz is gemeten met behulp van telescopen in Chili en Zuid-Afrika.
De ster van Scholz staat momenteel op 20 lichtjaar afstand in het sterrenbeeld Eenhoorn. Op het moment dat de ster door het zonnestelsel scheerde, moet hij een magnitude van 10 hebben gehad. Het is volgens de onderzoekers mogelijk dat de ster 70.000 jaar geleden af en toe met het blote oog kan zijn gezien door onze voorouders.
UFO mania: Mysterious rings spotted by weather satellites, coincide with wild weather?
UFO mania: Mysterious rings spotted by weather satellites, coincide with wild weather
Meteorologists still do not know what it is, but the weather satellites recorded. Are "rings" or "spiral" that appear from the west south-west of Australia. One of these "rings" appeared a few years ago, exactly on 15 January 2010. It was huge and concentric, had a diameter of between 200 and 400 km and was moving to the east, between the towns of Kalgoorlie and Boulder. However, even if no cloud and the weather is not interrupted, experts hypothesize that may have been caused by reflection of radar signals. But nevertheless, these hypotheses were discarded by some scientists and experts in climatology. Watch the video below:

Star Explosions Help Solve Mineral Mystery of the Universe
Star Explosions Help Solve Mineral Mystery of the Universe
An explosion on the surface of a dying star has is helping to clear up a mystery behind copious amounts of lithium seen in the universe.
By studying Nova Delphini 2013 (V339 Del), astronomers were able to detect a precursor to lithium, making the first direct detection of the third lightest element whose abundance had long remained in the theoretical realm.
"There have been no direct observational evidence for lithium production in novae before our result," lead author Akito Tajitsu, of the National Observatory of Japan, told Space.com via email. "But many scientists made predictions about it." [See images of Noval Delphini 2013]
When V339 Del was spotted by an amateur astronomer on Aug. 14, 2013, it was just beyond the limit of being visible to the naked eye, though it was visible in binoculars and telescopes. Within two days, it had brightened enough to be seen without instruments in regions without too much light pollution, the first naked-eye nova since 2007.
Novae form when material from one star in a close binary surface is dumped onto the surface of its white dwarf companion. The runaway thermonuclear reaction causes the surge in brightness, which in turn creates more complex elements than the hydrogen and helium that dominate the inside of most stars.
One element predicted to form in the outburst is the most abundant isotope of lithium, lithium-7 (Li-7). While most heavy elements form inside of stars and through supernovae, lithium-7 is too fragile to withstand the high temperatures found within most stellar cores.
"Lithium is one of the so-called 'light elements,' together with beryllium and boron. These elements are much less abundant in the Milky Way and in the Solar System than their neighbors on the periodic table,” Margarita Hernanz, of the Institute of Space Sciences in Spain, told Space.com by email. Hernanz, who studies the late stages of stellar evolution, including explosions, was not part of the research project.
"They are not formed only inside of stars like the others. Their synthesis relies on processes less efficient than nuclear reactions inside the stars."
Some of the lithium in the universe formed when the universe first got started, during the Big Bang. Cosmic rays interacting with stars and interstellar matter may have formed more. But these events do not provide enough lithium to equal the amount of the element present today.
In the 1950s, scientists suggested that an isotope of beryllium (Be-7) could form near the surface of the star. If the fresh Be-7 was transported to the cooler outer regions before it decayed into Li-7, the temperatures would not destroy the new element. But the difficulty in observing lithium from the ground made it a challenge to verify observationally — until now.
A classical nova such as Nova Delphini 2013 occurs when material flows from one star in a close binary to the surface of its companion white dwarf.

Tajitsu and his team used Japan’s Subaru Telescope on the summit of Mauna Kea, Hawaii. Its lofty altitude, large aperture and high sensitivity allowed the team to examine the composition of the material expelled from V339 Del at four points after the explosion. During the first three epochs, they were able to identify a significant quantity of Be-7 ejected from the nova at a high velocity.
By the end of their observations, however, no beryllium was visible; the team is still investigating the reason behind the complete disappearance. Continuing studies of V339 Del may help answer lingering questions such as this.
Beryllium-7 has a half-life of 53 days. Every eight weeks or so, the amount of beryllium is reduced by half as it decays into lithium-7, which is even more difficult to detect. In order to observe the rapidly shifting beryllium before it transitions into lithium, scientists must observe the new nova quickly, which can create scheduling challenges with large telescopes.
By studying lithium in the galaxy, scientists can understand how it evolves chemically over time.
"In general, all the chemical elements play an important role in galactic evolution, because they determine the chemical composition of the galactic gas from which stars form," Hernanz said.
"The study of the so-called chemical evolution of the galaxy determines how this chemical composition evolves along the history of the galaxy."
Tajitsu and his team hope to repeat their observations for many other classical novae, confirming how they might contribute to the evolution of lithium in the current universe.
Other than the first detection of beryllium-7, V339 Del has nothing to make it stand out from other novae. It appears to be a typical explosion on a carbon and oxygen dwarf. This means that classical novae could easily contribute a substantial amount of lithium to the galaxy.
The research, along with Hernanz's accompanying News & Views article, was published online today (Feb. 18) in the journal Nature.
A UFO in a street in Plauen, Germany Example for a Class A UFO report Excerpt from “Best UFO Cases - Europe“, by I. von Ludwiger, pp. 26,27
One of the characteristics of the UFO phenomena appears to be the fact that most sightings occur at night in rural areas when nobody seems to be aware of unusual things in the sky. They seem to appear in the sky when most people are at home in front of their television. Nobody really seems to expects UFOs between high-rises in the inner city limits. But this is exactly what happened on Saturday evening on May 21, 1994, in the city of Plauen. The city of Plauen is located about 250 km east of Frankfurt and has a population of about 100,000 people. The 39-year-old postal worker Mrs. H. was watching TV by herself in her first-floor apartment, which is part of a high-rise community near the city center. Her daughter was out for the evening enjoying the local discotheque.
After her movie ended at about 11 p.m., Mrs. H went to her balcony from where she has an unobstructed view of the road and the disco. It was getting late and she was looking out for her daughter. As she stepped outside she noticed a bright light about 5 m to her right in front of the balcony. She realized that the light surrounded a small 9-year-old oak-tree like an aura. The little tree was surrounded by other small trees, but none of the other trees were illuminated and it was also the only one that was swaying back and forth in the wind. Mrs. H. felt the strong wind and was surprised that only the illuminated tree was moving with the wind. The other trees were not affected, but this one was touching the ground at times and seemed to have a terrible struggle against the wind. Mrs. H, looking for the source of the wind, suddenly spotted a big luminous object approximately 100 meters away, hovering at an altitude of about 30 meters just above the building. It looked to her like two frisbees stuck together, turning in opposite directions. The bottom part had small, dark squares that looked like windows under which a circle of white lights rotated in a clockwise direction. The top of the object had a circle of white lights as well, but these were turning counterclockwise (Fig. 1).
Fig. 1: May, 21st 1994: An unknown object flies through a street in Plauen, Germany. It iluminates a small oak-tree and lets it shake as in a storm. (Drawing: Gabriele Berndt)
After about one minute the wind stopped blowing, the light around the tree disappeared and the tree went back to its usual upright position.
The object appeared to be about 10 m in diameter; it suddenly moved to the left and disappeared behind one of the other buildings. One moment later the object came back around the same corner and moved in front of the building, only to disappear behind the building on the right. Mrs. H. ran into the street so that she could follow the object. She observed the object vanish a few hundred meters away, above some other apartment buildings. Mrs. H. noticed that other people in the street had been watching the object as well as about five couples who were standing on their balconies. She did not talk to any of the other people because: “I really don’t believe in those kind of things.“ Mrs. H. estimated that the whole incident took about 6 minutes.
At about 11.15 p.m. the telephone woke Mrs. Martina S. who was already asleep together with her 4-year-old daughter in their 11th floor apartment. Her friend Mrs. A., who lived in the same building on the third floor, was very excited on the phone, saying “Martina, I think there is a UFO above our building.“ Mrs. A. had observed the unusual object from her third-floor balcony and wanted to know if her friend could see the same thing from the top floor. Mrs. S. replied with something like “Are you crazy“ and was about to put the phone down when she heard her friend exclaim “It’s coming back again, look at it yourself.“ This caused Mrs. S. to walk to the living-room window, with the phone in her hand, where she saw for herself a very large object hovering in front of her window. The object was only about five meters in front of her and looked like a shiny, silver metallic structure to her (Fig. 2).
Fig. 2: 23 o'clock: The unknown object hovers with rotating flashing lights behind Martins S.'s appartment's window in the 11th floor - just 5 meters away from the witness. (Drawing: Gabriele Berndt)
Mrs. S. also noticed the two counter-rotating light rings and some dark windows on the object. She said: “It seemed like the object was about to land on top, of the building.“ Mrs. S. dropped the phone, got her daughter and ran down to her friends apartment on the third floor. After a little while they carefully went towards the balcony, and eventually ventured all the way out onto the balcony, to observe the object from below. They felt a strong wind coming from the object and noticed that there was a hole in the cloud cover above it, which they assumed was caused by the object. The object moved up and down like a yoyo for a few minutes in the same place before it proceeded to a higher altitude, where it tilted on its axis and sped away in a north-easterly direction. During the incident Mrs. S. called her sister-in-law, who lived in another suburb, and told her about the observations. Her sister-in-law spotted the lights as well and proceeded to capture the phenomena on video. The frightened ladies called the police as well and reported their observations to the authorities. By the time the police arrived the object had disappeared, but the police told the ladies that many other people had called in and reported similar observations.
The local newspaper reported the incident the next day, but explained it as reflections from disco spotlights in the clouds. Because of this report, Mrs. S’s. sister-in-law erased the video recording a few days later. A police officer who is the husband of a coworker of Mrs. S., told the ladies confidentially that the newspapers explanation was not true.
Another interesting observation was discovered the next day. Both Mrs. H. and Mrs. S. independently reported that both had laundry drying on their balconies. Apparently all items of clothing were covered with black soot and had to be washed again.
Mrs. S. was so disturbed by this incident that she did not feel safe in her apartment anymore. She talked about hearing footsteps and strange noises as well as seeing lights inside her apartment after the incident. This frightened her so much that she moved to another apartment some time later. When she was interviewed by MUFON-CES members in December 1995 she was still so scared of the place that she refused to accompany the interviewer, even for a minute, to her old apartment.
MUFON-CES distributed 500 questionnaires in the area, as a follow-up to the investigation. Only one other witness replied. He confirmed the ladies’ description of the object as well as the hole in the cloud cover. His drawing of the object matched those of the ladies.
The Buff Ledge Abduction (two teenagers abducted in Vermont)
The Buff Ledge Abduction (two teenagers abducted in Vermont)
Date: August 7, 1969 Location: Buff Ledge Camp, Vermont, United States
"Michael" and "Janet", two teenage employees at Buff Ledge summer camp were sitting on a boat dock, when a UFO approached them. Two occupants were visible inside the craft. When it was directly over them, a beam of light shone from the craft. The next thing they remembered was sitting on the dock watching the now distant light. Ten years later under hypnosis, Michael and Janet each recounted a similar detailed story of abduction, a medical examination, and being taken on board a "mother ship."

Buff Ledge (The Vermont Abduction)
On August 7, 1969, an abduction event took place at Buff Ledge summer camp for girls on the shores of Lake Champlain north of Burlington in Vermont. The case was investigated by Walter N. Webb, who spent 32 years at the Charles Hayden Planetarium in Boston as senior lecturer, assistant director, and manager of operations. Mr. Webb, who has had a lifelong interest in UFOs and who worked with J. Allen Hynek, wrote a book about his investigation called "Encounter at Buff Ledge: A UFO Case History."
Two teenage camp employees, a sixteen year old boy called "Michael", and a nineteen year old girl called "Janet", were sitting on a boat dock late in the afternoon. The camp was mostly deserted because most everyone was gone into Burlington for a swim meet. As the sun dropped and the sky darkened, a bright light suddenly appeared. Michael said that he at first thought it was Venus.(It couldn't have been Venus. Venus was a morning star on that date, rising at about 2:00 am on the Eastern horizon, not visible in the late afternoon over Lake Champlain. - Loy)
As they watched, the light seemed to grow brighter and to come closer. Then, to their surprise, three smaller lights separated from the light and began to perform maneuvers in the darkening sky over Lake Champlain. After a moment, two of the lights receded, but one of them flew straight up and then dove down into the lake itself.
A few minutes later the object surfaced and began coming towards the two teenagers. Michael later said that he could see two small beings inside. The craft came on, until it was directly over them. Suddenly, a beam of light show from the craft. Michael screamed "We don't want to go!", and put his arms around Janet. Michael later remembered a floating sensation and then nothing for an indeterminate amount of time. Then, hearing the sounds of the others returning from the swim meet, they seemed to come to themselves. They found themselves sitting on the dock watching the now distant light, which flashed an occasional beam until it vanished completely. The UFO may have been seen as it left by three of the people returning from the swim meet.
Michael and Janet didn't discuss their experience that summer. Later, Michael would find that Janet didn't remember anything except seeing strange lights in the sky.
Ten years later, plagued by bad dreams, and having read of similar experiences by others, Michael contacted CUFOs (Center for UFO studies). Walter Webb investigated the case and suggested regression hypnosis. Under hypnosis, Michael recounted a detailed story of abduction, a medical examination, and being taken on board a "mother ship." After Michael's story of what had occurred came out during hypnosis, Janet was located and hypnotized as well. Although she consciously recalled only seeing some lights in the sky, under hypnosis she recounted a similar story of abduction to that Michael had told, although she had never heard his story.
The full story can be found in Walter N. Webb's book, "Encounter at Buff Ledge: A UFO Case History."
Further information regarding the abduction experience, recalled during the regression hypnosis, from B. J. Booth, UFO Casebook:
During Michael's hypnosis, he vividly recalled his experiences on that night in August 1968. He remembered how the beam of light lifted him into the craft's interior; how he entered a bigger craft, and how he saw Janet lying on a table being examined. The small beings shined a light into her eyes, scraped her skin, and took fluids from her body. "The aliens all looked alike, Michael recalled, and had those large eyes, a mouth without lips, no ears, and two small openings for a nose." MIchael also described the beings as having three pointed, web-like digits for fingers, and their bodies felt "damp and clammy." The aliens related to Michael that their mission was to "make life like ours...other places."
Janet also underwent the regression, and her descriptions only went to verify Michael's. She recalled feeling "cold" on the examining table, with something "pulling her hair and pinching her neck." The abduction of Michael Lapp and Janet Cornell certainly falls within the general pattern of abductions reported by many others. To confirm the facts of their fantastic story, Webb located several other members of the camp who had witnessed the strange lights over Lake Champlain the very night of the abduction! Two other employees reported a similar experience which had occurred earlier that same summer, when they observed unidentified flying objects hovering over the lake for about twenty minutes. Although Michael and Janet's experience was not reported for ten years after the fact, it is still a well documented case of alien abduction. -- B. J. Booth

Daily 2 Cents: SETI Broadcasts to Alien Worlds Worry Cosmologists -- Is Sending Messages to ET Silly? -- Aswang Transforms Into Bat
Plan to broadcast messages to alien worlds leaves cosmologists worrying
A plan to beam powerful radio messages to possible alien civilizations on distant planets has caused consternation among some scientists who believe it could spell doom for humanity on Earth.
Leading figures behind the 50-year-old Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (Seti), which uses radio telescopes to listen passively for unnatural signals from space, have now proposed an “active” form of search known as Meti – Messages to Extraterrestrial Intelligence. These signals will be aimed at the parts of the galaxy where Earth-like planets and life may exist, based on the growing number of “exoplanets” beyond our solar system identified by the Kepler space telescope, which include many in the so-called “habitable zone” of a star.
However, critics say the proposal betrays the founding principles of Seti, which were about listening rather than transmitting. They fear that sending signals of our existence could lead to visits from malign extraterrestrials intent on doing harm to humans. Read more at Independent
Making contact with aliens: the subject of many a sci-fi story, and a variety of imagined outcomes. Though no one knows what will happen if we encounter intelligent extra-terrestrial life, scientists are dividd on how we should proceed.
SETI, the Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence, has been searching for signals from said ETs for many years with no positive results. Of course, there have been interesting signals, but nothing specifically indicative of intelligence.
Scientists from SETI are turning up the volume on a debate that has been raging for several years over whether we should start actively transmitting messages into outer space rather than continuing to passively scan the skies while only leaking weak radiation from our surface activities on the planet. In a press conference at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in San Jose this week, Douglas Vakoch presented the question, and stated that beginning to transmit in an active, directed fashion would be part of humanity “growing up”. He also wondered if it would be the approach to let us actually “make contact” with aliens.
On his side is scientist and science popularizer, Seth Shostak, who rapidly and eloquently listed the reasons that behoove us to set resources to an active search for intelligent life beyond our solar system. The primary argument being that our planetary radio leakage has probably been enough to alert any reasonably advanced civilization to our presence, so why not start chattering in earnest? There have also already been several active communication attempts by humans, just not on a repeated basis. Additionally, limiting our radio-frequency output will be a burden to technological and cultural development that future generations should not have to bear.
David Brin, popular science fiction author and physicist, countered that we have no idea who is out there or what their motivations might be. We certainly aren’t invisible to anyone looking for signals of life in the universe, but we don’t want to go looking for trouble. He stressed that this discussion of sending messages to extra-terrestrial intelligence (METI as opposed to SETI) should considered by all of humanity, as the outcome will have global effects.
Brin later wondered how prevalent altruism, a behavioral strategy in which organisms do nice things for others with no thought for themselves, actually is in in nature. How often it has evolved should be a question of concern, as it would likely be a large part of alien cultural development.
If altruism is a rarity, Brin postulated that quid-pro-quo, or the concept of trading things of equal value, would be more universally understood. In a future scenario where we need to trade with ETs, information will be our most valuable asset, and should be guarded and valued as such.
A further argument against embarking on activating a METI program, involves existential considerations of risk, like planetary protection, which David Grinspoon, an astrobiologist, detailed as the concern of contamination. We exist in a microbial world that we are only just beginning to describe, let alone understand. There is a high probability that aliens carry microbes of all sorts that would be completely foreign and devastating to our immune defenses. The same goes for the effect of our microbiota on any aliens we might meet.
All of these arguments, pro or con, are completely moot in light of economic considerations. It has been calculated that it would cost to send repeated or continuous signals of appropriate strength to a small number of nearby stars using current technology would be minimal (on the order of $640 per year). But, to expand that search would require new construction and new technology, not to mention immense energetic input.
Frank Drake, the congenial scientific namesake of the Drake equation, said in conversation that despite the many potential benefits of making contact with an advanced life-form, “it would be silly to send messages now.” For starters, we won’t be able to benefit from such a project for at least 50-100 years. So, it would be a waste of resources at this point in time. Our time, money, and energy would be better spent searching as “sending messages is not efficient.”
According to Drake, we should focus our resources on exploring and utilizing our own solar system as “intelligent species wouldn’t be travelling between the stars.” Why is that? Moving between stars is cost prohibitive. He went on to say that a 100 year space flight to a nearby star at one-tenth the speed of light (the fastest tolerable to the human body) would require the equivalent of the full power output of the United States for 200 years… and, that doesn’t include the power needed to stop or land.
Only the most advanced civilizations will have moved beyond their own solar systems. It’s just cheaper to stay home, and listen. - BoingBoing
Afton Elaine Burton is engaged to America’s most infamous mass murderer and now, the woman who calls herself "Star,” is giving her first interview about her strange relationship with the man most consider a monster.
She said, "Yes, I am going to marry Charlie Manson! I think he's the most handsome man in the world."
Star became obsessed with Charles Manson when she was a teenager in Illinois working at McDonald’s, and for the past nine years she's lived just outside the Central California prison so she can see him twice a week, but no conjugal visits are permitted.
She is 27 and Manson is 80, not to mention the fact that he's got virtually no chance of ever walking free.
"I’m going to stick with him whether or not he's in prison," she declared.
She recalled the first time they met, saying, "I just thought he was the cutest thing. He probably asked me ten times if I wanted to get married."
In a recent phone call between Burton and Manson, he asked, “So, are we sure together?"
She replied, "Yeah."
Manson asked, "Are we solid together?"
"Yes,” she replied.
He then asked, "Are you my wife?"
"Yes," she answered.
Manson then asked, "Until death do us part?"
INSIDE EDITION caught up with Star's mom, Melissa Burton in Bunker Hill, Illinois. She's never met Manson, and will not be attending the wedding.
Melissa said, "We love her with all our hearts! She's my daughter!"
INSIDE EDITION asked, "Will any family members or friends be going to the wedding?"
"No,” she answered.
INSIDE EDITION showed Star’s interview, which was conducted by jounalist James McGrath, to clinical psychologist Jeff Gardere.
Dr. Gardere said, "This is someone who probably is pretty delusional in thinking that what she is doing is very honorable, very healthy, when it's everything but!"
Charles Manson was convicted for masterminding the brutal murders of actress Sharon Tate and six other people in 1969.
If you think this young woman's relationship with Charles Manson is bizarre, consider his history. The women in Manson’s murderous cult known as "The Family" were totally obsessed with him.
At Manson’s trial, the female defendants shaved their heads the way he had shaved his and one photo of Star Burton showed her with a shaved head and a cross on her forehead in solidarity with the swastika on Manson’s forehead.
And brace yourself for another crazy twist in this story.
Star told INSIDE EDITION, "The seed gun is just one idea that Charlie came up with to help re-seed the planet."
A seed gun conceived by Charles Manson?! She demonstrated the device for us, which is a ball of seeds packed into paintball-type gun and launched over the ground.
So, will this jaw-dropping marriage between a mass murderer and a woman 53 years his junior actually happen? Star Burton vows that it will.
“I could take very good care of him," she said. - Inside Edition
Aswangs are known as one,of the most terrifying urban legends/myths in the Philippines and to its neighbouring countries. It has an ability to fly and be a shape-shifter. They crave for human flesh and blood. There are a lot of theories that proves their existence and one of the latest speculation about their existence comes from the Philippines.
Local authorities and local men swears that they saw a woman change her appearance into a bat, the said incident was shared to multiple social media platforms and one of it was in Facebook. According to a Facebook post made by Babyrose Bisagas Dinglasan, an old lady was in a waiting shed at Best Land Brgy.Mayao Crossing when she turned into a bat.
The alleged aswang was brought to the barangay hall wherein she was interviewed by the tanods (barangay peace officers) but she was later released after allegedly making the threat that her family would kill all the people in the barangay if the officers won’t release her.
Another speculation that came up tackles the psychological condition of the woman, other locals told authorities that the woman is not an Aswang to be scared at because she needs help as she now roams around town due to her psychological problem. Another comment from the Facebook post further supported that speculation as the comment stated that the woman once had a family but she left them because she cannot take anymore the domestic abuse she's been getting on her home.
Up until now, people are still guessing and exchanges arguments on whether the woman was really an aswang or another case of someone who just simply lost her mind. - The Controversial Files

Daily 2 Cents: Alien on the Basement Stairs -- Florida's Past Feed Modern Phenomena -- The CIA and Weather Weapons
Daily 2 Cents: Alien on the Basement Stairs -- Florida's Past Feed Modern Phenomena -- The CIA and Weather Weapons
Alien on the Basement Stairs
In late August of 1994 i was riding back with my mother a close friend after A Friday night bowling session we did weekly. As we approached a farm area in between Oxford, Michigan and Lapeer, Michigan I saw an extremely bright area in a field on the east side of the road. I thought there was a football game or some event going on not realizing where we were. The field was completely illuminated at least a hundred yards and as I observed this I noticed a large triangular object. It had 3 bright white lights one on each Point of the triangle. In the center there was a dome with a laser like red light in the middle of that. The bottom of the craft was so intricate I could see the metal beam structure that it was made of. the craft was only a 100 feet from the ground and was hovering silently.I was so mesmerized by the object that I didn't make a noise until I realized that no one else was looking. So I started yelling Hey look over there what is that? I did not receive a response from anyone in the vehicle and observed they were in some type of trance I shoved my friend and He was almost as stiff as a board.also my mother who was driving was glued straightforward staring at the road in front of us. At that time I realized we were stopped in the road and there were no other vehicles around us.for the moment I ignored them and paid attention to the object again and watched how it began to turn sideways like an F 16 and stayed hovered on its side for about a few seconds before it shot off instantly at speeds beyond any technology we have and became a dot on the horizon a second later.at that very moment my friend And my mother snapped out of whatever state they were in and started yelling where? Where? And I pointed to the horizon in the West sky where the object was now and they sort of shrugged it off and kind of laughed at me.we then continued home and arrived 10 minutes later. I mention the weekly bowling because every Friday we would go to the Oxford bowling alley for my mother's league. Well the next week came around and on our way back that night I witnessed the triangle object higher up in the sky and following me home. This happened for 3 weeks in a row.
The last week I saw the object I had a sleepover at my neighbors house. In the middle of the night I woke up to a sound. Everyone was sleeping in the basement that night and I was closest to the stairs. I woke up to see a small 3 foot being creeping down the stairs I became terrified and yelled out I see you! The Being peeked through the stair banisters gazing at me before ducking and disappearing out of thin air. My description would be a standard grey alien only a few feet tall large black eyes and long arms. I was so terrified that night that I just close my eyes and went to sleep and tried to forget about it.a couple weeks later I was watching TV and a show called unsolved mysteries was on and the next thing I knew they had a special on the triangle UFO and apparently there were tons of witnesses all throughout the United States all around the same time that I was witnessing my encounter. I also read about the Belgian wave and realized that it was the same craft that I saw. Only I had a very close encounter with it.to this day I can still remember how clearly I could make out the structure of the object. I never knew where to report such a sighting until I started watching the Science Channel. All my life I have had multiple encounters with objects but this was the most Defying experience - MUFON CMS
Part of Florida’s past is still alive in paranormal sightings today. You have to go beyond the white, sandy beaches and bright, sunny days, into the dark waters of Lake Okeechobee, between Kreamer Island and Observation Island. Just under the surface of the water is a bone-chilling secret that has haunted the lake since the early 1900’s. Local fishermen discovered a massive amount of skeletons just lying in the bed of the lake, looking up at them, from a watery grave.
The fisherman of today still recount their stories of “catching the skulls” on their fishing line and reeling in the heads of a skeletons. No one lays claim to keeping one of the skulls.
With every unmarked grave there is a mystery of who, how and why. Are they the skeletons of an ancient people or the Seminoles who reigned in Florida in the 1700’s? Or, perhaps, they were victims of the 1928 hurricane that killed thousands of people.
Every year there are at least a half a dozen reported paranormal sightings around the lake. People report seeing shadowy bodies floating just above the water.
There is something about a grave that brings reverence to a face. It commands a pause, respect and acknowledgement. At the corner of 3rd Street and 10th Avenue South, in Naples, the first pioneer families and orphaned children were buried in Rosemary Cemetery. But, they were not allowed to rest there in eternal peace. In 1930 the residents of Naples decided that a downtown cemetery was a waste of real estate.
Edward W. Crayton, resident of Naples, donated 20 acres of land on the outskirts of town, along Pine Ridge Road between U.S. 41 North and Goodlette-Frank Road, so the graves could be relocated. Today, the only “remains” of the original Rosemary Cemetery have been reduced to a plot of land surrounded by a fence next to a parking lot on U.S. 41 North and Pine Ridge road, where a shopping center was built over the graves.
Over the past eighty-five years, there have been rumors of hauntings, told by local residents, who see shadows walking down the road and hear children crying. Strangely, businesses built over the grave site don’t live very long!
When you talk about ghosts there is always talk of “rising from the dead”. If you venture to Koreshan State Park, on Corkscrew Road, Estero, Florida, you might just meet the ghost of Dr. Cyrus Teed or one of his followers rising from the town inside the park.
In 1869, Teed, a 30-year old Chicago physician, had a revelation that he was the Messiah. In 1894, he led his followers into the muggy wilderness of Estero. He claimed it to be the new Garden of Eden. By the turn of the century, the population was estimated at 200 people. The town thrived with businesses, manicured gardens and a theater, it appeared a real utopia.
Teed died in December of 1908. His followers propped him up in a tin bath at the town theater, assuming he would resurrect after three days. When the three days passed without a resurrection the town’s people put him in a mausoleum by the beach. For 13 years his followers kept vigil, thinking he would resurrect. It was a hurricane that finally raised Teed’s body up and washed him out to sea.
The stories of Teed and his followers haunting the town are still alive. Many visitors recant hearing whispers behind them, soft crying and seeing glimpses of shadows. Many believe that the ghost of Teed did what he couldn’t do in life, rise up!
If you are taking a boat down the St. John’s River in Seminole County, Florida, you might want to avoid the Round Cypress Head. The centuries-old trees hold many paranormal activities. Residents and visitors describe seeing ghosts as shape-shifters that transition from human shape to animal shape. With thick leaves, no light and up turned roots everything is dark. Fisherman’s lore says that fisherman have gone missing there and they still hear them moaning and the smell of their bodies.
As you explore the paranormal of Florida, remember, you may not be alone. - Naples Herald
A senior US scientist has expressed concern over the use of climate data by US intelligence agencies.
Climate scientist Alan Robock of Rutgers University in New Jersey has called on government agencies to open up about the real reasons behind their interest in funding both climate change research and the development of geoengineering techniques.
At least one of these methods, which involves the release of stratospheric aerosols in to the atmosphere to bring about an overall cooling effect, has the potential to be turned in to a potentially destructive weather weapon.
Of particular concern to Robock were the reasons behind the CIA's decision to partially fund a recent two-volume National Academy of Sciences report in to methods for tackling climate change.
His suspicions stemmed from a strange call he received three years ago from CIA consultants who wanted to know how they could determine if another country was controlling the climate.
"I think they were also thinking in the back of their minds: ‘If we wanted to control somebody else’s climate could they detect it?’," he said.
"I think this research should be out in the open and it has to be international so there won’t be any question that this technology will be used for hostile purposes." Read more at the Guardian
UFO sites such as UFO International Project suggest that some UFO sightings – and just really weird clouds – might in fact be soaring, vast alien monsters which fly around hundreds of miles above the Earth.
In a blog post which makes you feel as if you’ve just accidentally ingested a vast amount of LSD, UFO International Project suggests that the creatures even may fall to earth in the form of ‘star jelly’.
The site says, ‘So-called atmospheric monsters have been with humanity for a very long time, in fact centuries! Descriptions range from vaporous, cloud-like beings to “air whales” and “air krakens” to translucent, floating jellyfish that dip in and out of clouds with no visible means of aerodynamic propulsion.’
Nigel Watson, author of the UFO Investigations Manual, says, ‘The idea that ET type sky creatures exist in our skies was put forward by Charles Fort who was a great collector of mysteries in the early part of the 20th Century. In his book Lo! He notes:
“Unknown, luminous things, or beings, have often been seen, sometimes close to this earth, and sometimes high in the sky. It may be that some of them were living things that occasionally come from somewhere else.”
‘Arthur Conan Doyle the creator of Sherlock Holmes even penned a story in 1913 called The Horror of the Heights that imagines semi-solid sky creatures gobbling up aviators. When the hero of the story goes up to get evidence of their existence he never comes back, all that remains is a blood stained notebook that ends with the words:
“Forty-three thousand feet. I shall never see earth again. They are beneath me, three of them. God help me; it is a dreadful death to die!”
‘Ufologist, Trevor Constable, pioneered the photography of UFOs using infrared film during the 1960s. He considered UFOs to be biological beings, which live in the sky. As they come closer to Earth, they become more visible and they can fire bolts of lightning to defend themselves. In his 1958 book They Live in the Sky he says these creatures are invisible to our eyes, but infrared film can capture images of them as they fly above us. Today, some ufologists have adapted video cameras to capture infrared images of UFOs.’
‘Perhaps there are luminous or ‘invisible’ jelly-fish like creatures that inhabit our skies, I’m not totally convinced but it is a fascinating theory that makes a change from starships loaded with anal probing aliens.’ -Metro

Blue Snow Falls on Russian Town Two Years After Meteor Crash
Blue Snow Falls on Russian Town Two Years After Meteor Crash
Blue snow has covered Chelyabinsk, a Russian town in the Ural Mountains, almost two years to the day after a meteor traveling at over 34,000 miles per hour exploded over the city with the force of 500 kilotons of TNT, creating a shock wave that injured over 1,500 people. Is something attracting anomalies to Chelyabinsk in mid-February? Why is Russia having a season of colored snow?
Blue snow in Chelyabinsk
The blue snow fell on Chelyabinsk less than two weeks after orange snow covered the Russian city of Saratov. Government officials blamed that color on a windstorm in the Sahara desert that blew orange sand into the atmosphere which was carried to Russia before falling. The Chelyabinsk residents wearing T-shirts that read (in Russian) “I Survived the Great 2013 Meteor Explosion” are going to need a better explanation than that.
Local resident Dmitry Kudryonok said the snow smelled like iron. News presenter Alexandra Artamonova from Telefact, who wasn’t catching snowflakes on her tongue, nonetheless said she could “feel a sweet taste in the mouth.” She also reported that others complained of having sore throats after breathing near the snow. Most residents wanted an explanation before cleaning off cars and sidewalks, but neither the Emergencies ministry nor the Ministry of Ecology gave any comments.
The blue snow formed blue icicles
Finally, the Viteks Company released a statement that one of its factories in Chelyabinsk was making blue dye for Easter eggs and had a “minor” spill. Not surprisingly, it gave assurances that the chemicals causing the blue snow were not toxic and posed no health hazard.
Why is Russia having a spate of off-hued snow? If the reason for the blue snow in Chelyabinsk was a chemical spill , why didn’t the local government respond quickly with information and cleanup? If the chemicals weren’t hazardous, why didn’t the company admit it sooner? Was it really responsible or was this a cover-up? Why is Chelyabinsk having such strange occurrences? Is something else happening there?

Check This Out: New Horizons Spacecraft Captures Pluto And Charon's Orbital Dance
Check This Out: New Horizons Spacecraft Captures Pluto And Charon's Orbital Dance
February 18, 2015 - NASA’s recently awakened New Horizons spacecraft is currently whizzing through our solar system at close to 50,000 kilometers per hour (31,000 mph), having so far covered an immense distance of 5 billion kilometers (3 bn miles) since its launch almost a decade ago. The idea behind this $700 million mission is to finally allow scientists to observe Pluto up close.
Although the steadfast probe isn’t due to flyby until July, it’s already been snapping some grainy portraits of the icy rock to tease us with what’s to come. Now, to whet our scientific appetites once again, NASA has released a time-lapse of the dwarf planet and its largest moon, Charon.
This “movie” consists of a compilation of images taken by the craft’s Long Range Reconnaissance Imager (LORRI) over a period of about a week, from January 25th until the 31st. Given that Pluto and Charon both rotate once every 6.4 Earth days, the assembled images allow us to see a whole day on these distant bodies. NASA has also zoomed in four times to make features easier to discern:
As you can see, Pluto seems to wobble in space as Charon dances around it, which is due to the satellite’s gravity. Charon is around one-eighth as massive as the dwarf planet, about the size of Texas, making it the largest known moon compared to the size of its host world. These bodies both orbit around a common spot above Pluto’s surface, known as the barycenter, which is where their gravity gets cancelled out; that’s why Pluto looks like it’s wiggling around in space.

Russia exposes 'NSA secret weapon': Outrage at system that enables USA to spy on EVERY home computer
Russia exposes 'NSA secret weapon': Outrage at system that enables USA to spy on EVERY home computer
February 17, 2015 - The National Security Agency has figured out how to hide spying software deep within hard drives, allowing them to monitor and eavesdrop on the majority of the world's computers - even when they are not connected to the internet.
In short:
- The NSA has figured out how to hide spying and sabotage software deep within hard drives, according to cyber researchers and former operatives
- The group said it found personal computers in 30 countries infected with one or more of the spying programs
- The most infections were seen in Iran, followed by Russia, Pakistan, Afghanistan, China, Mali, Syria, Yemen and Algeria
- The infections started in 2001, but increased drastically in 2008, the year President Barack Obama was elected
- The tools are designed to run on computers even when they are not connected to the Internet, and even the makers of some of the hard drives are unaware that these programs have been embedded
- The spies made a technological breakthrough by figuring out how to lodge malicious software in the obscure code called firmware that launches every time a computer is turned on
The Moscow-based security software maker Kaspersky Lab said it has found personal computers in 30 countries infected with one or more of the spying programs, with the most infections seen in Iran, followed by Russia, Pakistan, Afghanistan, China, Mali, Syria, Yemen and Algeria.
The targets included government and military institutions, telecommunication companies, banks, energy companies, nuclear researchers, media, and Islamic activists.
The NSA began infecting computers in 2001 claims Kaspersky, ramping up their efforts in 2008 when President Barack Obama was elected.
This 'surpasses anything known in terms of complexity and sophistication of techniques, and that has been active for almost two decades,' said Kaspersky.
What's more, even the makers of these hard drives are unaware that these spying programs have been installed, with the NSA obtaining their source codes by going so far as to pose as software developers according to former intelligence operatives, or telling the companies the government must do a security audit to make sure their source code is safe.
According to Kaspersky, the spies made a technological breakthrough by figuring out how to lodge malicious software in the obscure code called firmware that launches every time a computer is turned on.
Disk drive firmware is viewed by spies and cybersecurity experts as the second-most valuable real estate on a PC for a hacker, second only to the BIOS code invoked automatically as a computer boots up.
'The hardware will be able to infect the computer over and over,' lead Kaspersky researcher Costin Raiu said in an interview.
Though the leaders of the still-active espionage campaign could have taken control of thousands of PCs, giving them the ability to steal files or eavesdrop on anything they wanted, the spies were selective and only established full remote control over machines belonging to the most desirable foreign targets, according to Raiu. He said Kaspersky found only a few especially high-value computers with the hard-drive infections.
The firm declined to publicly name the country behind the spying campaign, but said it was closely linked to Stuxnet, the NSA-led cyberweapon that was used to attack Iran's uranium enrichment facility. The NSA is the U.S. agency responsible for gathering electronic intelligence.
A former NSA employee told Reuters that Kaspersky's analysis was correct, and that people still in the spy agency valued these espionage programs as highly as Stuxnet. Another former intelligence operative confirmed that the NSA had developed the prized technique of concealing spyware in hard drives, but said he did not know which spy efforts relied on it.
NSA spokeswoman Vanee Vines said the agency was aware of the Kaspersky report but would not comment on it publicly.
For 22 years, the military seemed to spare little expense in chronicling humans’ reported otherworldly encounters with glowing orbs, spinning spheres, and flying triangles.
All of it had been hidden away in archive files until the government dumped 130,000 documents worth of BLUE BOOK material in a free online database for the first time last month.
The project launched in 1947, two years after the end of World War II and just as the Cold War was gearing up. It concluded in 1969 without offering definitive proof of either aliens visiting the Earth or advanced spy craft launched by our enemies. But the goldmine of reports — witness names redacted — provides a snapshot of a nervous, suspicious era that drove our government to consider even the most outrageous reports.
Now with the articles and the top secret files no longer top secret we are now beginning to see a resurgence in interests about UFO’s and we are also beginning to see ultimatums by governments and indications that top ranking US officials are more than ready to make the announcement that we are not alone and that we have been seeking information from these alien beings and it is with that information we have advanced in many technical leaps.
The public’s imagination went wild with UFOs, in the forties and fifties and even though we are in the present are looking for disclosure, President Truman had already acknowledged the presence of UFO’s.
He never really went on the record to disclose who was piloting them, but he most certainly knew of their existence and the hysteria that they were causing around the country.
Between 1947 and 1957 radio and television broadcasts were interrupted by various saucer reports provided by Blue Book. It simply was the government doing a good job with public relations assuring the public that while there were many of these craft that could be explained there were still several that were very mysterious and most certainly had contact with the air force pilots that flew over the United States.
It was a serious attempt to find if there was any validity to a UFO crisis or just mass hysteria.
For the Air Force, it was driven more over concerns that the Soviets created a super secret weapon than if there were little green men. However that did not stop reports of flying craft landing in various areas with occupants walking out of their various flying craft to see the earth.
In the end, many of the more than 12,000 sightings diligently investigated by the Air Force were chalked up to weather phenomena, meteors, satellites, a bright planet, balloons, birds or overactive imaginations.
The latter category would seem to fit the story told in 1964 by the lost hunter near Lake Tahoe, who swore he spent the night in a tree, firing arrows at three white “robot”-looking creatures, setting scraps of his clothing afire and hurling the pieces at the glowing aliens below.
Although the BLUE BOOK documents suggest the military’s time commitment was considerable, it wasn’t enough to please everyone. In 1966, then-Michigan congressman and future president Gerald Ford complained that the Air Force was dismissing scores of UFO sightings from his constituents as “swamp gas” and called for a Congressional inquiry into the phenomena.
He wasn’t the only famous politician to get an earful from his constituents about UFOs. In a letter to President John F. Kennedy, 63-year-old Alice Reynolds of San Mateo, Calif., said she was out feeding bread to the birds when she saw two stationary white balls, one with a tail, in the early morning sky Nov. 13, 1961.
She complained that she tried to contact the Civil Defense Control Center in Belmont, but it wasn’t open, so she called the police: “They were more curious as to why I (was) up at that time than what I called about,” she wrote to the president.
The UFO witnesses ranged from grandmothers to amateur astronomers and even military pilots, who should have known a weather balloon when they saw one.
Several reports included sketches, charts and purported photographs of the objects.
By 1969 the UFO reports had dwindled and while reports were still coming in, reports now included stories of being abducted and harmed by the occupants of these flying craft.
There were also saucer parties that were organized where average everyday people would gather in remote areas to try and catch a rogue UFO on film. The footage would show lights in the night sky executing some extraordinary maneuvers.
In Dec. 17, 1969, the Air Force terminated the project, citing conclusions from a University of Colorado report titled, “Scientific Study of Unidentified Flying Objects.” Researchers determined there was no threat to national security, additional scientific knowledge or extraterrestrial vehicles uncovered by Project BLUE BOOK. However, 701 sightings remain “unidentified.”
After that it seemed that the military no longer wanted anything to do with UFO sightings and yet the sightings continued and stories of abduction were now being told with the first being told by Betty and Barney Hill.
In 1961 Betty and Barney Hill reported seeing a UFO and experienced a period of missing time while on a long car journey. Under hypnosis they both separately described how they were abducted by aliens and shown around the spacecraft before undergoing medical examinations. Betty also spoke of the origin of the aliens which were of the Zeta Reticuli system but at that time it wasn’t discovered until 1969.
Of course this spun several similar tales of marauding aliens entering into homes and terrorizing people.
This raised questions as to what the aliens wanted. Were they truly here to help humanity or were they truly a threat.
According to some surveys nearly 2% of Americans believe that some strange intruder has abducted them. The abduction scenarios read like a recipe in most cases and there is also the same amount of people within the set of reported cases that are determined to be psychotic or delusional. The fact is that not every case is a true abduction case. This does not mean however that the phenomenon is not happening.
The handful of accounts that have no explanation are horrifying and deserve investigation.
If this kind of kidnapping and torture was carried out by a human agency there would be a consensus demand for an investigation into who or what was responsible.
Since such a small amount of people claim that these events are happening, governments have not investigated them.
There has also been the theory that world governments are involved with the abduction processes and that perhaps a collusion with aliens exists or the most horrifying of all, humans are carrying out these experiments and using the alien stories as a cover. After all, an “alien” would not be able to stand trial for these crimes against humanity. Abductees were claiming for many years that invasive procedures were being used for some higher purpose and that DNA was being sequenced in order to study humans. The invasive procedures included the removal of sperm, Ova, DNA, and human fetuses.
Abductees for many years were saying that they have seen firsthand that these aliens were able to extract sperm and ova from them but many claimed that they saw clones of themselves and clones of several other mammals in labs that were on ships. Many abductees made claims that the aliens were using their DNA to replicate alien hybrids. These cases were best known and heard in the early seventies and eighties.
In 1984 President Ronald Reagan, who was also a Commander in chief with an obsession with apocalyptic matters admitted during a Presidential debate against Walter Mondale to having “philosophical discussions” about Armageddon in the White House with some well known evangelical ministers.
Reagan seemed to be speaking ex cathedra on four different occasions about extraterrestrial threats before the end of his presidency. Reagan even spoke with General Secretary Gorbachev in Geneva about world wide differences dissolving if we had to face of a universal extraterrestrial threat. Reagan’s statements were confusing when on one hand he declared that the alien threat was already among us and that their agenda is war:
I occasionally think how quickly our differences worldwide would vanish if we were facing an alien threat from outside this world. And yet, I ask is not an alien force ALREADY among us? What could be more alien to the universal aspirations of our peoples than war and the threat of war?
While many of Reagan’s comments were interpreted as ramblings about an alien attack, it can also be theorized that Reagan had his mind couched in apocalyptic thought and the possible threat of an asteroid or comet hitting the earth and causing a worldwide catastrophe. A threat from space would definitely humble the planet. It would be hoped that it would humble our leaders into becoming more aware of just how fragile our existence on this planet truly is. At the forty-second session of the UN General Assembly on September 21, 1987, President Ronald Reagan said:
In our obsession with antagonisms of the moment, we often forget how much unites all the members of humanity. Perhaps we need some outside, universal threat to make us recognize this common bond.”–
In the 1988 article, “Ronald Reagan’s Obsession with an Alien Invasion,” A. Hovni wrote:
Gorbachev himself confirmed the conversation in Geneva during an important speech on February 17, 1987, in the Grand Kremlin Palace in Moscow, to the Central Committee of the USSR’s Communist Party.
Gorbachev was further quoted as saying:
At our meeting in Geneva, the U.S. President said that if the earth faced an invasion by extra-terrestrials, the United States and the Soviet Union would join forces to repel such an invasion. I shall not dispute the hypothesis, though I think it’s early yet to worry about such an intrusion….
It is interesting to point out that Gorbachev never spoke of how weird the conversation was; he only commented that it may be too early to talk about such an event as an alien invasion. Did this indicate that perhaps there is a date when it would be more appropriate to discuss these things? Or have the governments of the world been planning on a date where they announce to the world that “life is out there in space” — or have they been planning on a date where they would stage an alien invasion?
On December 7th, 2012 Russian prime minister Medvedev during an on-camera interview with reporters in Moscow, continued to respond to reporters and made some off-air comments without realizing that his microphone was still on. He was then asked by one reporter if “the president is handed secret files on aliens when he receives the briefcase needed to activate Russia’s nuclear arsenal.” Medvedev responded:
Along with the briefcase with nuclear codes, the president of the country is given a special ‘top secret’ folder. This folder in its entirety contains information about aliens who visited our planet… Along with this, you are given a report of the absolutely secret special service that exercises control over aliens on the territory of our country… More detailed information on this topic you can get from a well-known movie called Men In Black… I will not tell you how many of them are among us because it may cause panic.
Western news sources reporting on Medvedev’s shocking reply about aliens stated that he was “joking” as he mentioned the movie Men in Black, which they wrongly assumed was a reference to the 1997 American sci-fi adventure comedy about two top secret agents battling aliens in the US.
Medvedev, however, wasn’t referring to the American movie but was, instead, talking about the famous Russian movie documentary Men in Black which details many UFO and alien anomalies.
Where Western news sources quoted Medvedev as saying “More detailed information on this topic you can get from a well-known movie called Men In Black,’” his actual answer was, “You can receive more detailed information having watched the documentary film of the same name.”
The reason(s) for Western propaganda news outlets deliberately distorting Medvedev’s words become apparent after his shocking statement, and as evidenced in just one example of their so called reporting on this disclosure of alien life already being on our planet where the title of one such article was “Russian Prime Minister Dmitri Medvedev makes a crack about aliens, and conspiritists promptly lose their minds.”
There was also some commotion in 2014 when the honorable Canadian minister of defense Paul Helleyer claimed that the United States are working with at least 4 types of aliens and that a Synarchy exists in the U.S. as he claimed government leaders are in touch with what he called “the tall whites.”
On February 12th, 2014, outgoing senior Obama adviser John Podesta reflected on his latest White House stint, listing his favorite moments and biggest regrets from the past year. Chief among them: depriving the American people of the truth about UFOs.
Podesta’s longtime fascination with UFOs is well-documented, as his brief political hiatus following four years as President Bill Clinton’s Chief of Staff freed him up to pursue his otherworldly passion.
At a 2002 press conference organized by the Coalition for Freedom of Information, Podesta spoke on the importance of disclosing government UFO investigations to the public.
On Friday the 13th, 2014 Podesta tweeted his regret about the nondisclosure of UFOs and The Washington Post immediately recalled an exchange one of its reporters had with Podesta in 2007. Karen Tumulty had asked Podesta about reports that the Clinton Library in Little Rock, Arkansas had been bombarded with Freedom of Information Act Requests specifically seeking email correspondence to and from the former chief of staff including terms like “X-Files” and “Area 51.” Podesta’s response, through a spokesperson, was “The truth is out there,” the tagline for the TV show “The X-Files,” of which Podesta was known to be a fan.
A 2010 editorial in Missouri’s Columbia Tribune disparaged reports that Podesta had asked an outspoken UFO photographer to stop discussing his knowledge of extraterrestrial activities in public.
“One wonders why Podesta would do such a radical reversal, given his former plea for UFO disclosure,” the editorial implored.
But contrary to the Columbia Tribune’s concerns, Podesta had clearly not abandoned the cause. He wrote an introduction to the 2010 book UFOs: Generals, Pilots, and Government Officials Go on the Record, by Leslie Kean. Unfortunately, Podesta will likely have little time to fill out FOIA requests in his new job at Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign.
However, Bill Clinton also reflected the same attitude Ronald Reagan had about UFOs and confirmed Podesta’s reports when he appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
After all of the new information that is out there, all of the data dumps and statements’ by officials. From Truman to Eisenhower to other presidents that have been upfront about UFOs what more evidence do you need that this phenomenon is real and that the alien disclosure was made at various times throughout history?
It seems that the information is now blatant and that there are most certainly unknown aerial phenomena that needs to be discovered and reported. Tonight, Clyde talks to UFO expert and author Timothy Green Beckley, as well as Peter Davenport of the National UFO Reporting Center about the future of Disclosure.

Interesting UFO video filmed in Austria 11-Feb-2015
Interesting UFO video filmed in Austria 11-Feb-2015
This interesting UFO sighting was taken in the daytime sky above Austria on 11th February 2015. Unfortunately there’s not a lot other info about this footage.
Date: December 29, 1980 Location: Huffman, Texas, United States
A terrifying encounter with a flame belching UFO on a lonely road near Huffman, Texas, resulted in appalling injuries for the three innocent victims. According to Bob Pratt, "the case remains one of the most important in the history of ufology. It has never been resolved. Someone in the U.S. knows exactly what happened to Betty and Vickie and Colby but they have remained silent despite all the suffering - and ridicule - those three endured."
Artist's impression of the close encounter.
Left to right: Betty Cash, Vickie Landrum and Colby Landrum.
Classification & Features
Type of Case/Report: MajorCase Hynek Classification: CE2 # of Witnesses: Multiple Special Features/Characteristics: Physiological Effects, Injury
This book documents the extent of the witnesses' medical injuries and chronicles the rigorous investigation that ensued. The investigation uncovered numerous witnesses to the extensive helicopter activity, as well as sightings of the object as it traveled west across Texas from the Louisiana border. The book also details the interactions with government officials and the legal actions taken by the victims. Even after eigthteen years, the investigation is still ongoing, making this one of the most thoroughly investigated cases ever.
HUFFMAN, TEXAS - On the evening of December the 29th 1980, Betty Cash, Vickie Landrum and Colby Landrum had visited several small towns in the Piney Woods area of east Texas looking for a bingo game, but discovered that all games had been canceled while the clubs made preparations for the Christmas and new year celebrations. Instead they settled for a meal in a road side restaurant in New Caney.
Betty Cash was then a 51 year old business woman who owned a restaurant and a grocery store. Vickie Landrum, then 57, worked for Betty in the restaurant and also occasionally as a school meals assistant. Colby Landrum, Vickie's grandson, was then 7.
After leaving the restaurant some time between 8.20 and 8.30 pm, Betty drove them along Highway FM 1485, a road usually used only by people who live in the area because it is so isolated. Although only about 50km from Houston the area is sparsely populated and is covered by oak and pine trees, and dotted with swamps and lakes.
It was about 30 minutes later when the three noticed a bright UFO above the tree tops some distance away. Colby was the first to spot it and pointed it out to the others. As they drove on it appeared to get larger and larger. As they realized that the object was approaching the road only a short distance ahead they began to get worried but hoped to get by it in time and leave it behind. But before they could do so the object had straddled the road blocking their way.
Vickie screamed "Stop the car or we shall be burned alive!" The object, many times larger than the car remained hovering at tree top level and sending down an occasional large cone of fire like a rocked blast. In between these blasts it would settle downwards some 7.5 meters or so only to rise up again on the next cone of fire. Vickie described it as being "like a diamond of fire".
When Betty eventually brought the car to a stand still the UFO was only 60 meters away. It looked as if it was made from dull aluminum and glowed so bright that it lit up the surrounding forest like daylight. The four points of the diamond were blunt rather than sharp and blue spots or lights ringed its centerline. Had the UFO not come to rest over the road the cone of fire from its lowest point would have set the forest on fire. The object also emitted an intermittent bleeping sound.
The three of them got out of the car to take a better look at the object. Vickie stood by the open door on the right hand side of the car with her left hand resting on the car roof. Vickie is a committed Christian who does not believe in UFOs or extraterrestrial life and when she saw the bright object she thought it was the coming of the end of the world. Because she expected to see Jesus come out of the light she starred at it intently.
Colby begged his grandmother to get back in the car and hold him and after about three minutes she did so and told him not to be afraid because "when that big man comes out of the burning cloud it will be Jesus." As Vickie held Colby she screamed at Betty to get back in the car with them. But Betty was so fascinated by the UFO that she had walked round to the front of the car and stood there gazing at it. Bathed in the bright light she stood there even though the heat was burning her skin. Eventually as the object began to move up and away she moved back to the car door. When she touched the door it was so painfully hot that she had to use her leather jacket to protect her hands as she got back in the car.
As the three of them watched the departing UFO, a large number of helicopters appeared overhead. As Betty said, "They seemed to rush in from all directions...it seemed like they were trying to encircle the thing." Within a few seconds the UFO had disappeared behind the trees lining the road. It was then that they realized how hot the interior of the car had become. They switched off the heater and put on the air conditioner instead.
When the effects of the bright light had worn off, Betty started the engine and they drove off down the darkened highway. After a mile or so of twisting road they were able to join a larger highway and turn in the direction of the departing UFO. This was about 8km and five minutes later. The object was clearly visible some distance ahead and looked like a bright cylinder of light. It was still lighting up the surrounding area and illuminating the helicopters.
By this time the helicopters were spread out over an 8km distance. One main group was near the UFO but moving in an erratic flight path. As they watched from their new vantage point they counted 23 helicopters. Many of them were identified as the large double rotor CH-47 Chinooks, the others were very fast single rotor types and appeared to be of the Bell-Huey type but were not properly identified. A lot of air crew members must have seen the UFO that night.
As soon as the UFO and helicopters were a safe distance ahead Betty drove on. When she reached an intersection she turned away from the flight path of the UFO and towards Dayton where the three of them lived. She dropped Vickie and Colby off at their home at about 9.50 and went home by herself. A friend and her children were there waiting for Betty but by this time she was feeling to ill to tell them about what had happened. Over the next few hours Betty's skin turned red as if badly sun burned. Her neck swelled and blisters erupted and broke on her face, scalp and eyelids. She started to vomit and continued to do so through out the night. My morning she was almost in a coma.
Some time between midnight and 2am Vickie and Colby began to suffer similar symptoms, although less severe. At first they suffered the sunburn like condition and then diarrhea and vomiting. It was a miserable night for all three victims.
The following morning Betty was moved to Vickie's house and all three were cared for there. Betty's condition continued to deteriorate and three days later she was taken to hospital. The burns and swelling altered Betty's appearance so radically that friend who came to visit her in hospital did not recognize her. Her hair began to fall out and her eyes became so swollen that she was unable to see for a week.
The appearance of helicopters at UFO sightings is becoming a common event, and the large number of helicopters at this incident is just another link in the chain. One thing is for certain, it is virtually impossible to be mistaken about the presence of CH-47 helicopters when you are directly beneath these large and noisy machines. The evidence of all the witnesses was consistent. They were interrogated separately about both the UFO and the helicopters and all gave consistent descriptions and sketches that indicated they had seen a large number of CH-47s.
Finding out where the helicopters had come from was a more difficult task than identifying them. according to a official at Houston Airport abound 350 to 400 helicopters operate commercially in the Houston area but they are all of the single rotor type, there are no CH-47s. The official also said that because helicopters fly on visual flight rules they do not have to contact the tower. Other information provided by Houston was that outside a 24km radius from the airport helicopters must stay below an altitude of 550 metres, and that due to a technical limitation the Houston control radar is restricted to a minimum altitude of 600 metres around the Huffman area.
The US army's Fort Hood press officer, Major Tony Geishauser, told the Corpus Christi Caller that no Fort Hood aircraft were in the Houston area that night. "I don't know any other place around here that would have that number of helicopters," he said. "I don't know what it could be..... unless there's a super secret thing going on and I wouldn't necessarily know about it."
All other bases in Texas and Louisiana denied they were responsible for the helicopters seen at the incident.
Betty, Vickie and Colby were not the only witnesses to the strange happenings at Huffman. An off duty Dayton policeman and his wife were driving home from Cleveland through the Huffman area the same night and also observed a large number of CH-47s. A man living in Crosby, directly under the flight path, reported seeing a large number of heavy military helicopters flying overhead. Oilfield laborer Jerry McDonald was in his back garden in Dayton when he saw a huge UFO flying directly over head. At first he thought it was the Goodyear airship, but quickly realized it was something else. "It was kind of diamond shaped and had two twin torches that were shooting brilliant blue flames out the back", he said. As it passed about 45 meters above him he saw that it had two bright lights on it and a red light in the center.
Since their encounter Vickie and Colby have been plagued with periodic outbreaks of skin troubles, as if they were more susceptible to infection than before. But the most far reaching injury has been the damage to their eyes. Their eyelids became infected very rapidly and have never fully recovered. Since the incident Vickie has had to have three new pairs of spectacles with successively stronger prescriptions to match the deterioration of her eyesight. Her eyesight continues to deteriorate and she still suffers from periodic infections. She fears she may eventually go blind. Colby has suffered similar problems but has needed only one new pair of glasses. Within a few weeks of the encounter, Vickie had lost about 30 per cent of her hair, and had large bald patches on her head. When it grew back it was of a different texture. Colby lost only a small patch of hair on the crown of his head, this too grew back in time.
Betty's injuries seemed even worse. She experienced a severe sun burn like condition and developed large water blisters, some as large as golf balls, over her face head and neck. One of these covered her right eyelid and extended across her right temple. She also developed a long term aversion to warm water, sunshine or other heat sources. In the year following the encounter she has spent five periods in hospital, two of those in intensive care. She lost over half of the hair on her head and has also had skin eruptions, many as big as a large coin, which leave permanent scars.
Doctors are baffled by these symptoms but speculate that they could be caused by some kind of radiation.
One day in April 1981 a CH-47 flew into Dayton. As Colby watched he became very upset. Vickie decided to take him to the spot where the helicopter had landed in the hope that it would seem less frightening on the ground. When they reached the landing zone they found a lot of people there already and had to wait some time before they were allowed to go inside the helicopter and talk to the pilot. Vickie and another visitor both claim that the pilot said he had been in the area before for the purpose of checking on a UFO in trouble near Huffman. When Vickie told the pilot how glad she was to see him, because she had been one of the people burned by the UFO, he refused to talk to them any more and hustled them out of the aircraft.
The UFO organization VISIT later located the pilot and questioned him. He admitted to knowing about Vickie and Betty's encounter with the UFO but maintained that he had not been in the area in December and had nothing to do with any UFO. Unless another pilot decides to come forward it seems that the source of the helicopters will remain a mystery.

THE DALNEGORSK UFO CRASH
THE DALNEGORSK UFO CRASH
By Philip Mantle & Paul Stonehill
This internationally famous UFO incident took place in 1986, on January 29, at 7:55 p.m. Some have called it the Roswell Incident of the Soviet Union. The information concerning this incident was sent to us by a number of Russian ufologists.
Dalnegorsk is a small mining town in the Far East of Russia. That cold January day a reddish sphere flew into this town from the southeastern direction, crossed part of Dalnegorsk, and crashed at the Izvestkovaya Mountain (also known as Height or Hill 611, because of its size).
The object flew noiselessly, and parallel to the ground; it was approximately three meters in diameter, of a near-perfect round shape, with no projections or cavities, its colour similar to that of burning stainless steel. One eyewitness, V. Kandakov, said that the speed of the UFO was close to 15 meters per hour. The object slowly ascended and descended, and its glow would heat up every time it rose up. On its approach to Hill 611 the object "jerked", and fell down like a rock. All witnesses reported that the object “jerked” or “jumped”. Most of them recall two “jumps”. Two girls remember that the object actually “jumped” four times. The witnesses heard a weak, muted thump. It burned intensively at the cliff's edge for an hour. A geological expedition to the site, led by V. Skavinsky of the Institute of Geology and Geophysics of the Siberian Branch of the Soviet Academy of Sciences (1988), had confirmed the object's movements through a series of chemical and physical tests of the rocks collected from the site. Valeri Dvuzhilni, head of the Far Eastern Committee for Anomalous Phenomena, was the first to investigate the crash. With the help of our colleagues in Russia this is the most accurate account of the incident to date.
Dr. Dvuzhilni arrived at the site two days after the crash. Deep snow was covered the area at the time. The site of the crash, located on a rocky ledge, was devoid of snow. All around the site remnants of silica splintered rocks were found: (due to exposure to high temperatures), and "smoky" looking. Many pieces, and a nearby rock, contained particles of silvery metal, some "sprayed"-like, some in the form of solidified balls. At the edge of the site a tree-stump was found. It was burnt and emitted a chemical smell. The objects collected at the site were later dubbed as "tiny nets", "little balls", "lead balls", "and glass pieces" (that is what each resembled). Closer examination revealed very unusual properties. One of the "tiny nets" contained torn and very thin (17 micrometers) threads. Each of the threads consisted of even thinner fibers, tied up in plaits. Intertwined with the fibers were very thin gold wires. Soviet scientists, at such facilities as the Omsk branch of the Academy of Sciences, analyzed all collected pieces. Without going into specific details suffice it to say that the technology to produce such materials was not yet available on Earth...except for one disturbing account.
To give an idea of the complexity of the composition of the pieces, let us look at the "iron balls". Each of them had its own chemical composition: iron, and a large mixture of aluminum, manganese, nickel, chromium, tungsten, and cobalt.
Such differences indicate that the object was not just a piece of lead and iron, but some heterogeneous construction made from heterogeneous alloys with definite significance. When melted in a vacuum, some pieces would spread over a base, while at another base they would form into balls. Half of the balls were covered with convex glass-like structures. Neither the physicists nor physical metallurgists can say what these structures are, what their composition is. The "tiny nets" (or "mesh") have confused many researchers. It is impossible to understand their structure and nature of the formation. A. Kulikov, an expert on carbon at the Chemistry Institute of the Far Eastern Department of the Academy of Sciences, USSR, wrote that it was not possible to get an idea what the "mesh" is. It resembles glass carbon, but conditions leading to such formation are unknown. Definitely a common fire could not produce such glass carbon. The most mysterious aspect of the collected items was the disappearance, after vacuum melting, of gold, silver, and nickel, and the appearance-from nowhere-of molybdenum, that was not in the chamber to begin with.
The only thing that could be more or less easily explained was the ash found on site. Something biological was burned during the crash. A flock of birds, perhaps, or a stray dog; or someone who was inside the crashed object?
Dr. Dvuzhilni’s article was published in a Soviet (Uzbekistan) Magazine NLO: Chto, Gde, Kogda? (Issue 1, 1990, reprint of an article in FENOMEN Magazine, March 23, 1990). In his article Dalnegorski Phenomen V. Dvuzhilni provides details unavailable elsewhere.
The southwesterly trajectory of the object just about coincides with the Xichang Cosmodrome of People’s Republic of China, where satellites are launched into geo synchronous orbit with the help of the Great March-2 carrier rockets. There is no data of any rocket launches in the PRC at the end of January. At the same time, Sinxua Agency reported on January 25, 1988, that there was a sighting of a glowing red sphere not far from the Cosmodrome, where it hovered for 30 minutes. Possibly, UFOs had shown interest toward the Chinese Cosmodrome in the years 1989 and 1988. There is another curious detail: at the site of the Height 611 small pieces of light gray color were discovered, but only in the area of the contact. These specimens did not match any of the local varieties of soil. What is amazing, the spectroscopic analysis of the specimens matched them to the Yaroslavl tuffs of the polymetalic deposits (i.e. the specimens possessed some characteristic elements of the Yaroslavl, but not the Dalnegorsk, tuffs). There is a possibility that the object obtain pieces of tuff in the Yaroslavl area. Tuffs experience metamorphosis under the effect of high temperatures.
The site of the crash itself was something like an anomalous zone. It was "active" for three years after the crash. Insects avoid the place. The zone affects mechanical and electronic equipment. Some people, including a local chemist, actually got very sick.
This Hill 611 is located in the area of numerous anomalies; according to an article in the Soviet digest Tainy XX Veka (Moscow, 1990, CP Vsya Moskva Publishing House). Even photos taken at the site, when developed, failed to show the hill, but did clearly show other locations. Members of an expedition to the site reported later that their flashlights stopped working at the same time. They checked the flashlights upon returning home, and discovered burned wires.
Eight days after the UFO crash at Hill 611, on February 8, 1986, at 8:30 p.m., two more yellowish spheres flew from the north, in the southward direction. Reaching the site of the crash, they circled it four times, then turned back to the north and flew away. Then on November 28, 1987 (Saturday night, 11:24 p.m.), 32 flying objects had appeared from nowhere. There were hundreds of witnesses, including the military and civilians. The objects flew over 12 different settlements, and 13 of them flew to Dalnegorsk and the site. Three of the UFOs hovered over the settlement, and five of them illuminated the nearby mountain. The objects moved noiselessly, at an altitude between 150 to 800 meters. None of the eyewitnesses actually thoughts they were UFOs. Those who observed the objects assumed they were aircraft involved in some disaster, or falling meteorites. As the objects flew over houses, they created interference (television, telegraph functions).
The Ministry of Internal Affairs officers, who were present, testified later that they observed the objects from a street, at 23:30 (precise time). They saw a fiery object, flying in from the direction of Gorely settlement. In front of the fiery “flame” was a lusterless sphere, and in the middle of the object was a red sphere. Another group of eyewitnesses included workers from the Bor quarry. They observed an object at 11:00 pm. A giant cylindrical object was flying straight at the quarry. Its size was like that of a five-story building, its length around 200 or 300 hundred meters. The front part of the object was lit up, like a burning metal. The workers were afraid that the object would crash on them. One of the managers of the quarry observed an object at 11:30 pm. The object was slowly moving at an altitude of 300 meters. It was huge, and cigar-shaped. The manager, whose last name was Levakov, stated that he was well acquainted with aerodynamics, knew theory and practice of flight, but never knew that a body could fly noiselessly without any wings or engines. Another eyewitness, a kindergarten teacher, saw something else. It was a bright, blinding sphere at an altitude of a nine-story building. It moved noiselessly. In front of the sphere Ms. Markina observed a dark, metallic-looking elongated object of about 10 to 12 meters long. It hovered over a school. There the object emitted a ray (its diameter about half a meter). The colour of the ray was violet-bluish. The ground below illuminated, but there were no shadows from objects below. Then the object in the sky approached a mountain and hovered over it. It illuminated the mountain, emitted a reddish projector-like light, as if searching for something, and then departed, flying over the mountain.
No rocket launches took place at any of the Soviet cosmodromes either on January 29, 1986, or November 28, 1987.
Dr. Dvuzhilni's conclusion is that it was a malfunctioning alien space probe that crashed into the Hill 611. Another hypothesis has it that the object managed to ascend, and escape (almost in one piece) in the north-easterly direction and probably crashed in the dense taiga.
There are opposing opinions. V. Psalomschikov, an expert on aircraft crashes, and a well-known journalist, stated that the object was manufactured in the USSR, the technology to produce it dates back to 1970's, and that he has similar ultra thin filaments in his possession. However, a Soviet probe would self-destruct immediately, whereas the object reportedly did try to ascend several times. Actually, Psalomschikov believes the crashed object was a Soviet-built intelligence remotely piloted vehicle.
A Russian ufologist and scientist, Gennady Belimov, presented information in 1993 that a Soviet military probe had crashed at the Hill 611. His proof was based on similar crashed of highly classified Soviet probes, and he concludes that ufologists misinterpreted the probe which to be a UFO crashed in the Far East. As for the lead collected at the site, Belimov believes it was extracted from the Kholodnensky deposit in the Northern Baikal region.
A new generation of Russian UFO researchers have reached a conclusion that the probe was an aerostatics reconnaissance vehicle possibly equipped to make infrared photographs. The speed of the probe was estimated to be approximately 54 kilometers per hour, which would negate Dr. Dvuzhilni’s data. But even among them there is no consistent belief as to the origin of the probe. Vladimir Smoly, for example, does not believe there was a thermite self-destruction device aboard the probe. The self-destruction would be expected to be immediate, unlike to what had happened at Height 611 to the crashed object.
Was this a NATO probe? V. Psalomschikov mentioned that previously the NATO reconnaissance balloons did contain trotyl (TNT) self-destruction devices. One such apparatus fell on a house in the USSR and “self-destroyed” it; fortunately, there was no one inside the dwelling at the time. The Soviets raised hell, the scandal was heard even in the UN, and since that time the NATO probes contained only thermite self-destruction devices. Smoly believes the object was aerostatics apparatus created for entertainment purposes. However, M. Gershtein indicated that the object had a clearly defined trail, and could not have been a balloon moving at the speed of the wind carrying it.
Would the military later stage fake "UFO" flights to confuse and mislead ufologists, and the Western intelligence services? The objects observed on November 28, 1987 consisted of different shapes: cigar-like, cylindrical, and spherical. Their flight was noiseless, smooth, at various altitudes. Actually, not one of the eyewitnesses (including the police) mistook them for UFOs. The impression was that they observed some aircraft, or falling meteorites. While in flight, the objects affected power lines throughout the area. Lieutenant Zhivayev of the Interior Ministry troops described the object he observed as a flame with a lusterless sphere in the front and a reddish ball in the rear. And the workers from the Bor Quarry-Bistryancev, Anokhin, Grigoriyev-reported a giant cylindrical object at an altitude of 300 meters. Its fore part was illuminated-like melting metal. There are many other witness accounts in the Dvuzhilni report. To remind our readers, the area of the crash is not that far away from the Tunguska Phenomenon site.
Something else, heretofore unknown in the West, took place in the region, that could shed some light on both incidents.
Alexander Rempel published his report in Priroda newspaper (Vladivostok) in July of 1991. A fiery object was observed over the Khabarovsk city on August 24, 1978, at night. It was about a meter and a half in diameter. At one point in its flight, it emitted a hissing (or wheezing) sound, like a jet engine does. The area around it became illuminated, like daylight. The object descended slowly, and lit up brightly. The soil, albeit full of water, burned up. Coal-like pieces were found in the area, they had holes and glass-like structures. For ten years thereafter the soil remained unchanged, and nothing grew at the site of the explosion. The eyewitnesses reported that a dark object flew away just before the explosion. It was not found. Ten years later Rempel and his colleagues received numerous reports about an anomalous zone near Khabarovsk. Few explorers who have returned from the area confirmed that the object fell there, and that fantastic things have been observed there. Yet at the time Rempel could not confirm their reports: the military had sealed the area off. But his group was able to research the area of the Dalnegorsk Object alleged fall after it flew off the Hill 611. They found out about unusual animal mutations.
Russian newspaper Komsomol'skaya Pravda in its December 1, 2000 issue published an article about the Dalnegorsk case (NLO svili v Primorje gnezdo). Most interesting was Andrey Pavlov’s (the author of the newspaper article) reference to the fact that in the early 1990s Russian generals from the anti-aircraft forces became concerned about the UFO activity in the area, and contacted local UFO researchers. An exchange of information ensued. It is newsworthy when a major Russian newspaper mentions such fact (the author actually quoted Dr. Dvuzhilni, the chief investigator of the Height 611 UFO crash).
According to Alexander Rempel (NLO Magazine, 1999) very few Russian ufologists recall the crash, or pay attention to it.
Alexander Rempel informed participants of the UFOMIND Russian UFO Forum that fragments of the crashed object have been examined in Vladivostok, Khabarovsk, and Munich, Liege and other places. In 2000, four Japanese and Korean expeditions examined the Height 611.
Ufologists from Korea and Japan have made offers to purchase the “balls”. The current price for one gram of any fragment is $500.00, and the price has been going up. There are offers of $1,500 per gram, but the demand exceeds the supply. Rempel is aware that there have been numerous conclusions of a number of institutes and laboratories in Russia and abroad, and yet all of them differ from each other. There is no final conclusion that the object was made on Earth, but at the same time, there is no definite conclusion that the object was of extraterrestrial origin. Some peculiarities of the object still cannot be explained. Since 2000 there has not been anything anomalous in the area. But Russians ufologists show little or no interest in the famous case, states Rempel, except for those in Vladivostok. Two exhibits of the Height 611 incident have been made and are active; one is in the Dalnegorsk museum, and the other in the UFO Museum in Vladivostok. There are hundreds of witnesses, and dozens of the actual eyewitnesses, and many drawings of the incident, but there are no photographs. Numerous “kontaktyori” (those who claim to be in contact with extraterrestrial civilizations) had made predictions that never came true, claimed to be in contact with alien civilizations, wrote books and made paintings of the event. They even claimed that a UFO would land at the Dalnegorsk stadium. This prediction had attracted attention of a great number of Russians, thousands of them arrived in Dalnegorsk, but nothing happened. Some of those who had arrived to meet the aliens still remain in the Dalnegorsk mental asylum.
The RUFORS Round Table members (Anatoly Kutovoy and others), as well as Vladimir Smoly’s UFO Forum participants, have discussed the case, and actively exchanged scientific information about it. As for the Russian media, it has paid some attention to the crash recently, too.
We must mention another interpretation of the Dalnegorsk crash. It was published in Soviet newspaper Ribak Primorya (Issue 14, 1991). The author of the article about the Dalnegorsk Object was Y. Vasilyev. He states several interesting points. According to him, V. Dvuzhilni and a group of his students arrived to the site of the crash. They searched the area three times, quite thoroughly, and found tiny metallic drops. All required measurements were taken, and took photographs. Then they initiated physical and chemical analyses of the findings. The temperature of the melting was 390 degrees. Silvery metal was very soft; it was easy to break it with a pair of tweezers. On February 8, 1986, V. Dvuzhilni and V. Berliozov, a geologist (who had studied the Sikhote-Alin’ meteorite) again ascended the hill. The geologist confirmed that the crashed body was of a cosmic origin, and the traces affirmed this. Its luminescence was similar to that of usual meteorites. Five years later, V. Dvuzhilini came up with further details (“fantastic details”, according to Y. Vasilyev).
Then the author comes up with his own hypothesis. On January 28, 1986, American shuttle Challenger exploded in the sky. The force of the explosion was such that the fragments were thrown all over the Atlantic. It is possible that one of the fragments, flying from the southwest, landed in Dalnegorsk the next day.
There seems to a consensus of opinion that the Hill 611 crash may well a conventional explanation, but exactly what remains to be seen. It does have its parallel’s in the West, the Roswell case being one of them, but there are others. Irrespective of this, it is a fascinating case, which is sure to divulge more information and more theories in the years to come.

Hillary Clinton and John Podesta UFO Disclosure 2016? (Video)
Hillary Clinton and John Podesta UFO Disclosure 2016? (Video)
Outgoing senior Obama adviser John Podesta reflected on his latest White House stint Friday, listing his favorite moments and biggest regrets from the past year. Chief among them: depriving the American people of the truth about UFOs.
Podesta’s longtime fascination with UFOs is well-documented, as his brief political hiatus following four years as President Bill Clinton’s chief of staff freed him up to pursue his otherworldly passion.
“It’s time to find out what the truth really is that’s out there,” he said. “We ought to do it, really, because it’s right. We ought to do it, quite frankly, because the American people can handle the truth. And we ought to do it because it’s the law.” Click here for the original Podesta story from Yahoo.news.
He stepped down to work with Hillary Clinton on what many suspect to be a presidential campaign.
Mr. Podesta came out publicly in support of UFO Disclosure the year after the historic 2001 National Press Club Disclosure Project event organized by Dr. Greer.
On Wednesday, May 9th, 2001, over twenty military, intelligence, government, corporate and scientific witnesses came forward at the National Press Club in Washington, DC to establish the reality of UFOs or extraterrestrial vehicles, extraterrestrial life forms, and resulting advanced energy and propulsion technologies. The weight of this first-hand testimony, along with supporting government documentation and other evidence, will establish without any doubt the reality of these phenomena. Click here to see the video.
Shortly after President Obama took office in 2009, Dr. Steven Greer provided an extensive briefing on UFOs to John Podesta.
Dr. Greer states: ” An attorney working with Mr. Podesta requested the briefing and we assembled an extensive file for Mr. Podesta to provide to the newly- elected President Obama.
There was also support for this process from a senior CIA official who is friendly to Disclosure and the briefing was also provided to then-CIA Director Leon Panetta .
Below an extract of this extensive briefing to President Obama.
Center for the Study of Extraterrestrial Intelligence The Disclosure Project Steven M. Greer, MD, Director and Founder www.DisclosureProject.org www.CSETI.org
January 23, 2009 Dear President Obama,
Since the mid-1950s, classified projects connected to extraterrestrial matters have operated outside of constitutionally required oversight and control by the President and Congress. This constitutes a grave and ongoing threat to US national security and global security and peace.
The implications of this subject are such that no aspect of life on Earth will be unaffected by its Disclosure. We are acutely aware that this subject is highly controversial and suffers from great social opprobrium within certain elite circles and within the mainstream media.
Indeed, secrecy on the subject has, in part, been maintained by a carefully orchestrated psychological nexus of ridicule, fear, intimidation and disinformation that makes it difficult for any public figure to openly address the matter.
Moreover, the ‘bubble’ of security and access restrictions that surround the Office of the President makes it very difficult for POTUS to receive accurate information and advice on the subject.
The consequences of this secrecy, combined with the psychological aspects mentioned above, have ensured that none of your predecessors have been able to effectively manage this problem.
Because of this misguided secrecy, the wondrous new sciences related to advanced energy generation, propulsion and transportation have been withheld from the people.
These advances include the generation of limitless clean energy from the so-called zero point energy field and quantum vacuum flux field from the space around us, and propulsion that has been termed (incorrectly) anti-gravity. The field of electromagnetic energy that is teeming all around us and which is embedded within the fabric of space/time can easily run all of the energy needs of the Earth – without pollution, oil, gas, coal, centralized utilities or nuclear power.
The disclosure of these sciences and their wise application during your first term as President is the most pressing matter before you. These sciences will create a true new energy economy allowing mankind to solve our most pressing problems of global warming, poverty and resource depletion.
That we are not alone in the universe is now a scientific given. That we have been visited already by advanced civilizations – whose interests here are likely ancient – is controversial.
However, in my discussions with European, Vatican, Canadian and other leaders around the world, a growing consensus exists that we have been visited and the time for disclosing this information is long past due.
More importantly, an appropriate diplomatic initiative is needed to communicate with these extraterrestrial visitors within a framework of universal peace, free from the past dominance of militarism and paranoia.
Insofar as upwards of 80% of the American people think that ‘UFOs’ are real, and that some aspect of the government is lying to them about it, continued secrecy redounds only to the benefit of the precious few who profit from such secrecy. This secrecy undermines the credibility of the US and other governments.
Moreover, there exists a secret, ‘unacknowledged’ operation that has used very advanced electromagnetic weapon systems to track, target, and on occasion, but with increasing accuracy, down extraterrestrial vehicles. This reckless behavior constitutes an existential threat to all of mankind and must be reined in immediately.
We are also morally obliged to warn you of an existing highly secretive plan to use advanced technologies to hoax an ‘alien attack’ on Earth. There exists within the direct control of the Majestic group assets capable of launching such a false flag operation and virtually every person on Earth, as well as most leaders, would be deceived by it.
Components of this operation have been tested on the public over the past 50 years and include, but are not limitedto:
Alien Reproduction Vehicles (ARVs)
These are advanced anti-gravity aircraft that have been fully operational since at least the late 1950s to early 1960s. Many so-called UFO reports by civilians and military personnel are of such ARVs. They constitute an unacknowledged or ‘black’ Air Force and these ARVs are capable of extraordinary speed, maneuverability and lift/hover.
By 2009, these technologies had gone through many generations of refinement and, if deployed, could easily hoax or simulate an Extraterrestrial Vehicle (ETV). (Note that a UFO is a nonspecific term and could be either an ARV or an ETV.)
Programmed Life Forms (PLFs)
These are well-crafted alien-appearing creatures that, while completely manmade, often deceive unknowing people as ‘aliens’.
The stagecraft, genetics and other sciences associated with these creatures are beyond the scope of this brief, but are very well developed. I have personally been briefed by multiple independent corroborating sources regarding the development and deployment of PLFs.
These creatures, used in conjunction with ARVs, have convincingly launched the pop culture fervor over ‘alien abductions’. Victims of such paramilitary human-controlled abductions genuinely believe that they have been abducted by ‘aliens’ and often have physical stigmata and ‘implants’ to prove it. These implants are also manmade and we have information about the laboratory and corporation making these items.
The vast majority of information in the public domain on the UFO subject is, therefore, carefully orchestrated disinformation designed to prepare the populace, as well as our leaders, for a non-existent ‘alien threat’.
The psychological warfare implications of this were described in the 1950s in CIA documents and are further elucidated by other documents and testimony. No less a figure than Wernher Von Braun warned of this cosmic deception.
The objective of such a false flag operation is the creation of an enemy in space that would unite the world behind a global military power against such an ‘alien threat’. President Reagan and other leaders have been targeted with such disinformation, which is designed to secure their silence or cooperation with the agenda of secrecy and space weaponization.
Unfortunately, the media and movie industry are highly penetrated by interests loyal to the Majestic group, which has used the media to, in turns, ridicule the subject and present terrifying images of ‘alien invasion’. In short, the populace is almost thoroughly brainwashed on the matter, and this presents a further hurdle that must be carefully taken into account when planning Disclosure.
Once we vow to live peacefully on Earth and go into space only in peace, we will be welcome with open arms. Until then, a type of cosmic quarantine exists – rightly – around the Earth.
Click here for the entire letter Dr. Greer sent to President Obama.
It is clear that President Obama is aware of the UFO phenomenon, but like as all former presidents, he fails to release the secret UFO documents.
It is known that Hillary Clinton has long had an interest in UFOs and the existence of extraterrestrial life.
She was given an informal briefing in August 1995 by billionaire philanthropist Laurence Rockefeller, on the best available UFO evidence.
An August 4, 1995, memo by President Clinton’s Science Advisor, Dr Jack Gibbons, confirmed that the Clintons would be vacationing with Rockefeller at his Teton Ranch in Wyoming that summer, and they would discuss UFOs.
Both Clintons were involved in numerous attempts to force the release of national security files concerning UFOs. Click here for the original Clinton story from Examiner.
Most revealing is a comment Hilary Clinton made during the Presidential campaign on December 17, 2007:
“Remember that movie Independence Day, where invaders were coming from outer space and the whole world was united against the invasion? Why can’t we be united on behalf of our planet? And that’s what I want to do.”
If Hillary Clinton, with John Podesta besides her, becomes the next president, we might expect UFO Disclosure? Is that what she wants to do? Only time will tell.
Britain's Roswell: the truth behind the Rendlesham Forest UFO incident
Britain's Roswell: the truth behind the Rendlesham Forest UFO incident
The truth is out there? The Rendlesham UFO incident is the subject of a new filmPhoto: Eyevine
Did an extra-terrestrial craft land in a Suffolk forest during the winter of 1980? The maker of a new film, The Rendlesham UFO Incident, believes so
Dubbed “Britain’s Roswell”, the Rendlesham Forest incident, which took place over a series of nights in December 1980, continues to fascinate UFO enthusiasts and conspiracy theorists. It is easy to understand why. Consider the following three statements, for example:
1) “This was not some vague ‘lights in the sky’ sighting – the UFO actually landed.” – Nick Pope, a Ministry of Defence employee from 1985 to 2006.
2) “When I arrived [at the scene], it was going in and out through the trees and at one stage it was hovering.” – Sgt. Adrian Bustinza, a security police commander who investigated the incident at the time.
3) “Okay, we’re looking at the thing; we’re probably about two to three hundred yards away. It looks like an eye winking at you... And the flash is so bright to the starscope that it almost burns your eye.” – Taken from the Halt tape, recorded on December 27 1980 by United States Air Force lieutenant colonel Charles Halt.
Only last month, a dog walker uploaded fresh footage of unidentified lights in the sky above Rendlesham Forest, while a new film on the subject, produced by long-time Suffolk resident and Rendlesham Forest incident expert Daniel Simpson, has recently been released. There is even an official UFO trail for walkers to follow through Rendlesham Forest. But what actually happened? And, 35 years after the event, are we any closer to unravelling the mystery?
As the years have passed, the facts have become increasingly hazy, as statements change and new witnesses come forward. But what we do know for sure is that, in the early hours of December 26 1980, US military personnel (sections of the US Air Force were temporarily stationed at RAF bases in Woodbridge and Bentwaters) spotted strange lights above Rendlesham Forest.
One of these men, John Burroughs, accompanied by his supervisor and one other individual, went to investigate the blue, red, orange and white lights. In his subsequent witness statement, published in 1981, Burroughs explains: “As we went down the east-gate road and the road that leads into the forest, the lights were moving back and they appeared to stop in a bunch of trees... Also, the woods lit up and you could hear the farm animals making a lot of noises, and there was a lot of movement in the woods. All three of us hit the ground and whatever it was started moving back towards the open field… We got up to a fence that separated the trees from the open field. You could see the lights down by a farmer’s house. We climbed over the fence and started walking toward the red and blue lights and they just disappeared.”
Jim Penniston, who accompanied Burroughs into Rendlesham Forest on December 26, claims to have encountered a craft, covered in hieroglyphic-like characters. “I estimated it to be about three metres tall and about three metres wide at the base,” Penniston later explained. “No landing gear was apparent, but it seemed like she was on fixed legs. I moved a little closer. I had already taken all 36 pictures on my roll of film. I walked around the craft, and finally, I walked right up to the craft. I noticed the fabric of the shell was more like a smooth, opaque, black glass.”
Burroughs does not recall this. Indentations on the forest floor, as well as damage to the trees in the area where the lights had been spotted, were found the following morning, however. Radiation levels recorded at the site of the indentations were also unusually high.
In the book Encounter in Rendlesham Forest, which was published last year, Penniston writes: “I left the forest a different man… I was in awe of the technology and yes, a knowing that it was not an aircraft which could have been manufactured in 1980 or even now.” Both Penniston and Burroughs have since suffered from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.
Two nights later, a different set of military personnel experienced a similar series of events. On this occasion, when the lights were spotted, Lieutenant Colonel Charles Halt was prepared. A pragmatic character, Halt intended to disprove the wild rumours swirling around RAF bases Woodbridge and Bentwaters. Arming himself with a recording device, he set out to investigate. The subsequent audio tape is now considered one of the most valuable pieces of evidence in the Rendlesham Forest incident.
The transcript of the tape runs to some 18 minutes but includes statements from Halt such as: “I see it too... it’s back again... it’s coming this way... there’s no doubt about it... this is weird... it looks like an eye winking at you... it almost burns your eyes... he’s coming toward us now... now we’re observing what appears to be a beam coming down to the ground... one object still hovering over Woodbridge base... beaming down”. Halt has since given interviews in which he claims that these occurrences were picked up by British radar. “I didn’t know this until recently,” he told AOL News. “Because people have come forward after they’ve retired. There were two radar confirmations.”
The following night, December 28, one final group of men claim to have encountered something out of the ordinary in Rendlesham Forest. Larry Warren, an 18-year-old soldier who was not even at either RAF base on the night of the first incident, was sent out on patrol with Sgt Adrian Bustinza and a number of other military personnel. Sometime after 11pm, the men departed their trucks and headed towards the field where lights had been seen on the previous two nights.
There, Warren claims to have seen “disaster preparedness officers out here with geiger counters, going in an almost half-clockwise motion around this thing on the ground.” A small red light was then seen approaching from the direction of the coast. “It moved in a downward arc, so fast. [It] stopped and hovered about 20 feet off the ground,” said Warren. “It was the size of a basketball, [an] American basketball. [It was] self-illuminated, not quite red, yet that’s the closest I can describe it.”
Things were about to get even stranger, though. This red light suddenly exploded and a craft appeared on the forest floor. According to Warren, it had “no windows, no markings, no flag or country of origin. Nothing. You could hardly look at it head on, and if you looked at it through the side of your peripheral vision you’d get a shape of it… and there it was, clear as a bell.”
A 1983 News of the World headline about Rendlesham sightings (Ian Ridpath/NoW)
At this stage, Warren and Bustinza were asked to retreat by a senior man. From a distance, they then claim to have witnessed Wing Commander Gordon Williams approach the craft and encounter some alien being with “what looked like eyes, facial features, bright clothing and some other device.” Warren is clear that a “silent stand-off”, rather than any communication, took place.
At around 4.30am, Warren returned to his base but Bustinza claims to have seen the craft depart. “When it took off, it was, like, hovering. It went up and, like, took off at about a forty-five-degree angle, and if you would have blinked, you would have missed it… And we got a cold draft of air that lasted about a good ten seconds. You know, like when you get a good blow of dust or wind. No noise though; I do remember that.”
It is understood that almost half of all UFO correspondence directed at the Ministry of Defence relates to the Rendlesham Forest incident. Despite claims of a cover-up, the MoD’s stance has never wavered. It states: “No evidence was found of any threat to the defence of the United Kingdom, and no further investigations were carried out. No further information has come to light which alters our view that the sightings of these lights was of no defence significance.”
Daniel Simpson takes a different view, however. The director of The Rendlesham UFO Incident, a fictionalised account of the story set in the modern day and filmed on location in Rendlesham Forest, is convinced that either there has been a military cover-up or that something extra-terrestrial occurred in December 1980. And moreover, he believes he has uncovered further evidence to prove it. While filming in Rendlesham Forest – “It does have a very strong atmosphere of something strange” – he asked the Forestry Commission to investigate a series of hatches, which Simpson describes as “mysterious”.
“I got the Forestry Commission to tow one of those hatches off with a four wheel drive and there’s a ladder going down,” he explains, as we discuss his film. “Now, they will tell you that those are drainage systems for the airfield but it’s a very elaborate drainage system.”
A drawing from Jim Penniston's original witness statement
Simpson believes that “the twin bases [RAF Woodbridge and Bentwaters] are connected by tunnels underneath, which isn’t that far out a thing to suggest, because a lot of these bases do have an underground facility, especially as it’s a nuclear facility. You don’t keep nuclear weapons on ground level, they have to drop down.”
He continues: “I recently heard a very interesting story of a guy that went up to the Bentwaters air base and, because it’s privately owned, some of those buildings are rented out to people. A company up there wanted to have their internet sorted out and this guy dug down and – he was a telecom guy – he came back and he was sheet white. He couldn’t believe it. He said he’d just come across these cables, two foot down, and they were cables delivering such a powerful internet connection – but they were cables from 1980. I haven’t ever told anyone that story. They [the cables] were from 1980 and yet they were so in advance of what we’ve even got now. I’m told that all the time what we get [technologically] is much behind what they [the military] actually know.”
So what, I wonder, is the truth? Simpson appears conflicted about whether this is a military cover-up at a nuclear facility or something even more alarming. “I honestly believe something very strange went on there and I believe that somewhere is the evidence to prove it but that’s hidden away. I think it’s an extra-terrestrial encounter. I do.”
I put a series of theories to Simpson, which I hope might explain away the idea that extra-terrestrial life landed in a forest in Suffolk 35 years ago. But he bats them all away. Could the lights have come from nearby Orford Ness lighthouse, for example? “The lighthouse theory is rubbish,” he scoffs. “Lighthouses don’t fly down into forests, split up into five different lights and zap off into space at Mach-3. They don’t move through the trees and get mistaken by up to 20 witnesses from the United States Air Force.”
Daniel Simpson's film, The Rendlesham UFO Incident, was shot on location in Rendlesham Forest

Ex-UFO sceptic baffled by mystery
Ex-UFO sceptic baffled by mystery
Unexplained: A picture taken by Queenstown's Verdun Waghorn
Queenstown man Verdun Waghorn wants to know if the truth is out there.
A fortnight ago the former UFO sceptic-turned-sympathiser was fossicking for rocks by the Dart River bridge on the Glenorchy-Routeburn road.
About noon, he took 20 photos of the surrounding landscape to show his family.
Looking through the images that evening, he noticed one showed a small, dark shape in the western sky towards the Humboldt Mountains.
He is sure he neither saw nor heard an aircraft at the time, and has been puzzling over the object ever since.
In response to an Otago Daily Times inquiry, an Airways New Zealand spokeswoman confirmed air traffic control had no record of aircraft in the area at that time.
Waghorn said the object appeared in only one of the photos, so he felt confident in ruling out that it was a speck of dirt or small insect on his lens.
He had always been sceptical about UFO stories, ''but now I sympathise with them''.
"I'm sure there's a reasonable, rational explanation - I don't think it's green men from outer space - but whenever I look at it, I think it's such a weird shape.
"It doesn't look like a bird or a plane - it's got me baffled."

Hannah McRoberts Photo
THE VANCOUVER ISLAND PHOTOGRAPH by Gordon Creighton
Mrs. Hannah McRoberts (aged 25) of Campbell River, BC, was with her family at a rest-area some thirty miles to the north of Kelsey Bay on the east coast of Vancouver Island, from October 10 to 15, 1981. During this five-day period she says she took a number of pictures of her family and of the local scenery, using her 35 mm Mamiya camera with a 50-55 mm lens, 125 speed, and ASA 100 film. At one point during the holiday they observed that one of the mountain peaks was surmounted by a cloud somewhat suggestive, as they described it, of "a volcano issuing steam", so Mrs. McRoberts snapped that as well. None of the party noticed anything else in the air at the time, and the presence of the UFO was therefore only discovered by them when the prints and negatives came back to them after processing.
The resulting photograph shows an object to the right of and above the peak and the plume of cloud. This photo came to the attention of Mr. David A. C. Powell of Vancouver, who is on the staff of the McMilllan Planetarium in that city, who in turn contacted Bill Allan and provided him with an enlargement, and also got in contact the APRO of Tucson, Arizona, the respected American UFO investigation group who claim now to be the oldest in the world.
In the meantime, Mr. W. K. Allan was able to speak with Mrs. Hannah McRoberts and to interview her on CKOV Kelowna open line radio programme, in the course of which he formed the opinion that her story was entirely genuine and that what we have here is therefore a "legitimate classical type UFO photo."
(The place where Mrs. McRoberts says she took her photograph lies incidentally, some 450 kms or so to the north-west of Mount Rainier in the US State of Washington, where, as readers will recall, Kenneth Arnold claimed on June 24, 1947 to have seen his famous flight of nine saucers moving in formation at 1,200 mph and at an altitude of 10,000 ft over the Cascade Range.)
THE EXAMINATION OF THE PRINTS IN UK AND USA
Very wisely indeed, in view of past experience (what a story there is to be told, one day, about the interceptions of UFO photos and UFO reports from the public mails - and all over the world!) Mr. Allan had arranged that the negative of this photograph should remain very firmly in the hands of Mrs. McRoberts herself.
APRO had meanwhile passed their prints of the picture to one of their most eminent specialist consultants, Dr. James Harder, who is the Professor of Engineering in the University of California at Berkeley, and he and APRO agreed too that the negative should remain where it was.
Here in Britain we passed our copies of the prints to FSR's photographic consultant Mr. Percy Hennell, who is generally regarded as the leading expert in this country in all matters where colour photography is concerned.
THE VERDICT ON THE PRINTS
After careful scrutiny, Mr. Hennell informs us that he would naturally have preferred to have the actual negative in hand for, as he warns, all kinds of hoaxes are possible, and do occur. Nevertheless, he says that he finds nothing dubious or suspicious about the picture, though he does warn us that, if the picture is indeed genuine, then the disc must have been of enormous size - several hundreds of feet wide - to have shown up so large at such a distance! (There have indeed been frequent reports, over the years, of discs estimated to be of such sizes- indeed in some cases of discs believed to be as much as 1000 ft in diameter, as for example in the confidential report which APRO published a good many years ago, and which they had received direct from the pilot and co-pilot of an American troop-carrying plane which, while en route from Tokyo to South Vietnam with a party of American soldiers, encountered two enormous metallic discs that flew on a parallel course with them for half an hour.)
THE VERDICT OF DR. JAMES HARDER
We now see, from APRO Bulletin, Vol. 30, No. 12, that Dr. James Harder submitted his report on the photo on November 4, 1982, and they give their own conclusion, which is as follows:- "All this considered, the photo presented here appears to be an excellent and probably genuine photo of a classical disc photographed in daylight. Although unlikely, if further information and clarification is available, it will be presented in a future issue of the Bulletin."
In view of the obviously very great interest which this photo will evoke, I take the liberty of quoting in full Dr. Harder's opinion as given in APRO Bulletin Vol. 30, No. 12 -
"Generally I feel that the best test of authenticity is in the good reputation of the photographer, insofar as it is impossible to prove a negative - in this case that there is no possibility of a fraud. However, some of the indicators of an authentic photograph can help establish likelihood of an authentic photo. These are -
1. That the negative involved is one of a sequence of outdoor pictures and that the frame in question is not an isolated one. One way of producing a hoax is to re-photograph a positive print onto which has pasted an addition. To do a good job of hoaxing then one would have to re-photograph an entire roll of negative film.
2. That there are no inconsistencies in the lighting of the strange object and the rest of he scene. In the subject photo, I note that the shadows in the lower left of the scene indicate a Sun position nearly behind the camera. There is a reflection on the forward face of the UFO that is consistent with this Sun position. There also seems to be a bright spot under the UFO not connected with external lighting - maybe a light on the UFO.
3. With the right equipment, it is possible to make certain measurements of negative density of the UFO image and of other images of objects at estimated distances from the lens. Here the object is to show that the unknown is not nearby - and thus not a hubcap or other such object thrown into the air. The idea is to measure, from the image of the object at a known distance, the atmospheric 'extinction coefficient'. On a clear day, with a low value, contrasts between dark shadowed areas and brightly lit areas retain their distinction over greater distances. On hazy days, the light and dark areas blend towards a mid-range shade, giving the appearance that distant mountains have of being one shade of grey. Nearby shadows can show their true darkness, as opposed to the lighter shade of distant shadows. But in this picture there are no nearby shadows to serve as a standard, only shadows of trees in the lower left bottom.
It has been alleged that edges become fuzzy at greater distances and that this can help distinguish nearby objects from those far away. I know of no theoretical reason for this based on the optical properties of the atmosphere, but will ask Jim Lorenzen if we have a consultant who could be more sure of this. After all, we do take remarkably clear pictures from space with no trouble from edge-blurring of objects on the ground, and that is through 14.7 lbs per square inch of air in the path.
So proving authenticity is likely to be elusive, insofar as there is only the evidence of internal consistency to go on. I wish I could be more positive, but then there is so much evidence of other sorts for the reality of UFOs that we shouldn't have to add to it excepting for those who are beyond believing anyway."
POSTSCRIPT
In a further letter from Mr. W. K. Allan, he comments on Dr. Harder's reference to the fact that Mrs. McRoberts photo is one of a sequence of outdoor pictures, and says: "It is unfortunate that the importance of keeping the individual exposures on the roll unseparated was not fully realized, but when I saw the negative it was still unseparated from one of the family snaps."
With regard to the lady who took the photograph of this UFO, Mr. Allan goes on to say: "What is of great importance to me is the fact that Hannah McRoberts is the niece of one of Canada's leading nuclear engineers, a man in charge of a multi-billion dollar electrical generating complex, whom I have known continuously since his attendance in my class at Western Canada High School in Calgary, Alberta."

THE HORRIFIC STORY OF HYBRIDS, UFO ALIENS, AND THE DULCE UNDERGROUND BASE
THE HORRIFIC STORY OF HYBRIDS, UFO ALIENS, AND THE DULCE UNDERGROUND BASE
UFO hunter Bill Birnes says that his popular TV series was canceled because of what the show uncovered.
In a recent interview on Paranormal Podcast with Jim Harold, Birnes recounts the shocking details about what his UFO team uncovered in Dulce, New Mexico on the Jicarilla Apache Reservation.
As you may know, Dulce is supposedly the site of an extensive underground base in which there are reports of advanced technology taking place. Some are reporting that much of this research involves a “chimera” type of hybrid genetic manipulation of different species, such as man and cow.
Here is where it gets even stranger.
Bill Birnes says that somebody that identified himself as a former security person, Thomas Castello, reported that this base at Dulce was a type of collaborative effort between humans and ETs.
Well you might not think sounds so bad.
But the upsetting aspect of the Castello story, according to Birnes, is that humans and ETs were performing some horrific experiments involving cross breeding of species and various organs.
Birnes says that the experiments Castello reported on were something out of the movie of “the Island of Doctor Morrow.” He says, “They were horrible, grotesque experiments of body parts floating in vats.”
“It was something out of a Jeffery Dhamer movie,” Birnes says.
According to Birnes, “These experiments were going on to blend humans and extraterrestrials. They were growing a whole new species there”
So what happened to the “whistleblower” Thomas Castello?
He disappeared and many people involved in the story also disappeared, Birnes says.
Even though this story of ET and human collaboration at Dulce is told by a few others, at this point it all seems just like a frighteningly fantastic story.
But there is more to the story.
Birnes says that one episode on UFO Hunters had uncovered evidence that seemed to back up the strange hybrid/chimera technology reportedly going on at Dulce.
A retired New Mexico State Trooper, Gabe Valdez, showed the TV UFO Hunter Team what looked like a human head on a cow (see video below).
After the the broadcast of the “human headed cow” episode, Birnes says they “evidently stepped on the big one. We were told what did you do. You guys are off the air. You guys are bad guys.”
Birnes also says he was told by somebody that claimed to be from an intelligence agency that the show went too far when they aired the human headed cow.
Interestingly, Dulce is right in the middle of an area known for cattle mutilations. As I have previously reported, Northern New Mexico and Southern Colorado have been a hot spot for not only UFO activity but for animal mutilations.
It is also interesting to note that a few researchers and ranchers have concluded that the cattle in the Dulce area of Northern New Mexico and Southern Colorado are being mutilated not by Aliens but by some secret government black operation.
Perhaps those that conclude the cattle mutilations are a US black op are partially right. But as Bill Birnes suggests, it could be a joint operation involving ETs.
Watch the portion of the episode that, according to Bill Birnes, got the popular UFO Hunters TV Show canceled below. You will see what is claimed to be a human head on a cow.

UFOs and Computer Hackers
UFOs and Computer Hackers
Further to my earlier article – on the matter of the already-infamous saga of computer hacking in relation to the so-called “Roswell Slides” – I thought I would share with you another couple of examples of hacking as they relate to UFOs. The first is one that seldom gets much attention, but which is genuinely right up there in the undeniably weird stakes. It all began in late 1992 – specifically on October 27 of that year…
That was the date on which a particular episode of Dateline NBC was broadcast. It was an episode made highly notable by the fact that, in part, it dealt with issues that parallel certain, key aspects of the controversy surrounding the Roswell slides – namely, dead aliens and a mysterious, unnamed hacker whose identity became, ultimately, a matter of great debate.
One segment of the show was focused on hacking, with an anonymous hacker talking about his actions and activities. And that’s when the matter of UFOs surfaced, and the UFO research community of the day sat up, did a double-take, and took careful notice.
As the hacker spoke, various imagery appeared on the screen that gave every indication of being taken from a computer from none other than Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Dayton, Ohio. For those who may not know, it’s a facility that has long been associated with claims of UFO debris and the corpses of dead aliens being secretly stored there. The following words could briefly be seen on the show: “Wright-Patterson AFB/Cataloged UFO parts list, an underground facility of Foreign…”
At that crucial point, the camera swung away to another aspect of the story. Things didn’t end there, however. In fact, they had barely begun. The hacker reportedly found, and then downloaded from Wright-Patterson’s computers, certain things that included, apparently, material on nothing less than alien autopsies. It’s hardly surprising, then, that the show received a wealth of feedback.
In the wake of the show’s broadcast, NBC said that the hacker was aware of the interest his apparent UFO material had generated, but he had no desire to reply. That was pretty much the expected response, since all of the data he had acquired was obtained via wholly illegal means. Nevertheless, NBC said that its lawyers had scrutinized everything “with a fine-tooth comb” and, as a result, were satisfied that the data was the real deal.
In 1996, four years after the NBC broadcast appeared, a Welsh man, named Matthew Bevan, was arrested by Scotland Yard’s Computer Crimes Unit, after also hacking Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, in pursuit of UFO data. Bevan was in deep, deep trouble, on both sides of the Atlantic – that is, until the case against him collapsed, in 1998.
UFO hacker Gary McKinnon
And who can forget the saga of Gary McKinnon? He was the Brit who had a ufological Sword of Damocles hanging over his head for the best part of a decade, after very unwisely deciding to hack the US Government for secrets of the UFO kind – just like Matthew Bevan and just like Dateline NBC’s source had done.
Someone said to me on February 15 that the hacking angle of the Roswell slides controversy was nothing less than “a unique development in Ufology.” It’s not. Not at all. It’s not unique and it’s not a development.
The reality is that it’s just the latest in a line of such things that have gone on since the early 1990s, none of which have achieved anything, at all, beyond getting two men into scalding hot water, and a third hiding and cowering behind a thick curtain of anonymity. How things will play out for the latest hacker – the one for whom the Roswell slides are a particular obsession – very much remains to be seen, although I have my hopes it will end very badly for him, given that it appears he hacked me, at one point…
UFO sighting over New Jersey, New York on 14th March 2009
UFO sighting over New Jersey, New York on 14th March 2009
Interesting video footage of a bright cigar – shaped UFO sighting recorded in the daytime sky above New Jersey, New York on 14th March 2009.
Witness said: This is the moment a man records a flying saucer behind his house and suddenly a huge tubular shaped UFO appears very low to surface and disappears while another appears from thin air with a speeding object shooting from it. This is great footage, very rare and unexplained. Witness Statement: This is the worlds best UFO video ever because it was made during the daylight, the UFO is very close not more than 5,000 feet .
This UFO is harvesting something from our atmosphere. at 1:11 you will see the ship loading a luminous object into its bottom. I believe the orb is a spotter, and the other larger craft is a harvester. Watch in HD go frame by frame download if you can. You will see the ships are under attack by fast moving particles that travel horizontally from the right to the left. The ships lights rotate and change color slightly when the weapon charges and discharges. It shoots a green plasma and hits several of the targets that are trying to hit it.
Interesting video footage of multiple UFO sightings recorded while crossing Moon on 15th February 2015.
Poster said: In this clip I show the results of new image processing methods which zoom in on small objects (UFOs) in video footage. Bear in mind I have frozen the object in space – blurry and jumpy frames give the illusion of morphing. This is not the case as is seen in the original footage.
The most compelling film on the subject to date.” – Edgar Mitchell, Apollo 14 Astronaut. Government and Military Officials reveal the truth about UFOs. The most credible UFO witnesses from around the world tell stories that challenge reality in I KNOW WHAT I SAW, a documentary guaranteed to change the way we see the universe. Director James Fox brings together the testimony of Air Force generals, astronauts, military and commercial pilots,
This isn't the first video recording of an unidentified object, but documents of this sort are always impressive. On February 10, 2015, user Eduardo Chavez Guerra uploaded this video to YouTube showing a strange even. He was taping a television show in a district of Lima, Perú, when a strange object appeared in the recording.
This is so strange. While Melba Ketchum like to point out this skull as more evidence of more hybridization, what’s shocking are the bullet holes in this! According to the website, Ancient Origins, this skull was discovered over a hundred years ago by a Swiss miner:
was searching for metal ore deposits in the limestone caves of Kabwe, Zambia, when he found an ancient skull that dated back to between 125,000 and 300,000 years. It was the first fossil to be discovered in Africa with Homo sapiens characteristics. But there was an even bigger surprise – the skull had a small, circular shaped hole on the side, which forensic scientists say could only have been created by an extremely high-velocity projectile, such as that caused by a bullet. The mystery was compounded by the discovery of an ancient auroch skull with exactly the same feature. The discoveries have led to many wild and wonderful speculations, but we are really no closer to solving the puzzle.
Freedom of Information requests lodged by two Melbourne scientists have revealed UFOs may be more active in Australian airspace than many people thought. Paul Dean and Keith Basterfield were so fascinated by an Australian Transport Safety Bureau ATSB report into an incident near Perth, on March 19 last year; they lodged a FOI request with Air Services Australia asking for information on recent cases of unexplained objects in our skies. When the response returned details of 13 incidents in the past seven years they were stunned. “At about 3800 ft above mean sea level, the crew sighted a bright strobe light directly in front of the aircraft,” a report into the March 19 Perth incident stated. “The light appeared to track towards the aircraft and the crew realised that the light was on an unknown object, possibly an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). “The pilot reported that the object was cylindrical in shape and grey in colour.” The pilot was forced to take evasive action to avoid crashing into the object. Another incident involved a missile-like object dropping from the sky. “(Flight) XKI (DH8C) reported a foreign object of approximate size (1 metre) within close proximity (50ft) of the aircraft causing them to level out briefly as the object passed left hand side,” an Airservices Australia pilot said: Pilot reported observation at 6800 ft.” In another incident last January a pilot reported seeing “something hovering…which then disappeared.” In September 2012 flight “TGW581 reported a red cylindrical object passing the aircraft in the opposite direction when climbing through FL200 approximately 20nm miles south of Sydney.” On April 25, 2010 near Mt Jerrabomberra in NSW an “Unidentified (upside down pyramid shaped) object drifting close to final rwy 35 … Initially drifted west, towards final for rwy 35, before climbing and drifting to the Northeast.” “Two aircraft (QFA814 and VOZ259) were diverted through noise abatement areas to avoid the object.”

Two South Carolina witnesses at McCornick reported watching a circle-shaped, translucent object that slowly moved across the sky, according to testimony in Case 63235 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The husband and wife were fishing on Clarkshill Lake – also known as Lake Strom Thurmond – when the object was first noticed. The reporting witness looked away from a contrail in the sky – and then back again – and noticed something to the right of the contrail.
“I could see the whole right side of object, but it was translucent,” the witness stated. “The left side was completely transparent. I could make out the outline of the right side with a pattern on the inside. It must have been tilted because I could make out the whole right side of the circular object.”

The witness pointed out the object to her husband.
“I said to my husband, look there is an object, but I knew he would not be able to see it unless his eyes were already fixed on the object. After pointing to the object and telling him it’s to the right of contrail it went completely transparent.”
The witness described the object.
“The object appeared to be very slowly moving to the left of contrail when it went completely transparent. I was completely in awe that I finally had witnessed what I know was a UFO. I have always been a believer and hoped that one day I would witness such an event.”
The witness will continue to watch the skies for future events.

“The fact that I saw what was apparently an object cloaking itself doesn’t leave me questioning what I witnessed. I know what I saw that day and I will never forget it.”
Lake Strom Thurmond, also known as Clarks Hill Lake, is a reservoir at the border between Georgia and South Carolina in the Savannah River Basin. The lake is about 27 miles northwest of Augusta, GA.
South Carolina is currently a UFO Alert Level 5 – with 0.42 sightings per million population based on MUFON January 2015 statistics. South Carolina received a total of two UFO reports in January.
The UFO Alert Rating System is based on five levels – 1 through 5 – where states with 4.01 or higher reports per million residents are rated an Alert 1; 3.01 – 4.0 reports are an Alert 2; 2.51 – 3.0 are an Alert 3; 2.01 – 2.5 are an Alert 4; and those states with 2.0 or lower are rated an Alert 5.
Please remember that most UFO sighting can be explained as something natural or man-made. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.
Down The Rabbit Hole With David Batdorf Episode 2 In the flagship episode Chris and David talked about life after man. This time they look at life before man. This webcast is uncensored.
U.S. President Advisor Considers Not Disclosing UFO Files His Biggest Failure in 2014
U.S. President Advisor Considers Not Disclosing UFO Files His Biggest Failure in 2014
President Obama’s top advisor has issued a statement that UFO enthusiasts believe a major hint of the presence of space aliens and that the government has been in contact with them.
Self-described curious sceptic on UFO topic, outgoing aide John Podesta, appears regretful for not securing the disclosure of UFO files once again.
Podesta’s tweet has shocked the UFO world. UFO experts, including Steve Bassett, have described the statement as very significant.
He tweets “Finally, my biggest failure of 2014: Once again not securing the #disclosure of the UFO files. #thetruthisstilloutthere cc: @NYTimesDowd.”
UFO believers suggest that 2015 might be the disclosure year when governments admit that alien exist and they have been in contact with these ETs.
A joke or a serious tweet, it has brought back rumours that the U.S. government will come clean. Many people today will not going to ask if aliens are real, but when will aliens coming to see mankind.
Some believers would answer this question by saying that aliens are already on Earth for a very long time. Many think that a significant event related to this subject is about to happen here on planet Earth.
One thing is sure as of today; the truth is out there. At least this is what UFO enthusiasts have been believing.
This is very interesting video. Masses of UFOs caught in Chicago night sky. “This footage is from Oct. 2014 of UFOs caught in Chicago night sky and it was slowed down 4x so you could see the movement better“
NASA astronauts who have bravely violated nondisclosure agreements to discuss the technologies of the alien craft that almost all of them have encountered during the course of their missions are patently dismissed .
Military movies and still photos taken by gun cameras from aircraft around the globe provide irrefutable evidence but debunkers argue the reality of alien technology and visitations.
People have hubris to deny that many alien races visit Earth and suggest instead that we and our military are the sole creators of the craft that violate us and the nightly airspace of our world, a hubris, of arrogance from "wannabees," as in "I wanna be the ONLY one."
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
You're not a singularity of cynicism; there are also many others.
A leap in consciousness will require a scuttling of your beliefs about the nature of reality; to live unburdened by an insatiable curiosity to comprehend the mysteries of the universe and UFO pilots motives, on Earth, is quite an amazing thing, in itself. As one abductee cogently wrote:
"The history of mankind has been visited by personalities who refused to be tethered by the predominant illusion of space and time, seekers whose minds transcended the limits of space and form.
Knowing the aliens reside in a different reality explains why this whole UFO phenomenon is so slippery; we exist within a matrix of other realities all merging in one spot: the mind."
Aliens and their craft exist, extraterrestrial as well as interdimensional.
My expanded consciousness and enhanced mental abilities of psychic nature are merely the outcome of my contacts with them
One cannot spend time in the close company of highly telepathic creatures without some of it 'rubbing off' onto one. The same abductee also wrote:
"Their dimension coexists with our own dimension joined and distant by a thin veil- our arrogant assertion that we are the sole occupants of the only reality."
Herein is an actual account from people who experienced an alien event related to open comatose eyes:
PREFACE:
Giordano Bruno- February 1600 (burned at the stake by Church Bishops for teachings against the Church) "Innumerable suns exist! Innumerable earths circle around their suns, no worse and no less inhabited than this globe of ours.
For no reasonable mind can assume that heavenly bodies that may be far more magnificent than ours would not bear upon them creatures similar or even superior to those upon our human Earth."
Dr. Gary Ignacio and his wife, Phyllis, were boating on North Conway Lake, in New Hampshire, near the North Conway mines, on Friday May 13, 1998.
They had both paddled into a deep hidden green canyon, entering between enormous boulders which formed a narrow granite gateway.
They had been there before and had made love in the windblown wild flowers in a unvisited field.
They had pulled the silver metal boat up onto the narrow gravel and stone beach shadowed by overhanging willows and there had a cold lunch of chicken and white wine.
It had been a pristine landscape to wander in and dream.
Soon they had felt the air vibrate strongly like an explosion's aftershock.
It seemed to have come from just the other side of the canyon.
"What in God's name was that?" Phyllis had asked.
Her husband had answered, "I'll bet it's a shockwave from a dynamite explosion at the North Conway mine."
"But there was no sound, and we're miles and miles from the mine."
He had thought for a moment, " You know, you're damned right."
He had climbed the boulder behind him and he had said, "It was right behind us; I should be able to figure out what has happened if I can see out over the lake from up there."
"You'll probably just fall and kill yourself," his wife had warned.
After hard climbing he had reached the top which was split and he could look out through a sharp cleft in the rock.
Two large, shiny, round craft floated on the water just beyond the narrow entrance to the cove.
What he had seen was so unbelievable that his jaw had fallen wide open despite himself; he had scrambled down to get his wife.
It had been his expression more than his silence.
His slack jaw and wide eyes more than anything else had persuaded her to quickly follow him back up the steep climb for a look at what had transfixed his face so.
Both had climbed to the well hidden perspective.
Everything they'd ever learned about reality was suddenly quite wrong.
Both craft were fifty to sixty feet wide, twenty feet thick at the center and fifteen feet thick at the rim.
Round, black-edged ports covered the rim at a distance of every four feet.
On the top sides, hatch covers were open and moving slowly around its surface were small, off-white spindly creatures, who moved in unison like robots.
Their movement were quick, like jumping spiders.
On both ships, entities had moved in unison involved in tasks and over their heads, from a central position, had been a slowly rotating hoop-shaped object.
When the hoop had reached a point directly opposite the husband and wife it had stopped.
So had the creatures.
They had stared toward the couple's hiding place and had remained totally motionless.
The husband had pulled at his wife's dress, "Jesus, God, in Heaven, get down!"
Both quickly had.
They had been sure that the creatures had spotted them.
They had hidden until they had noticed that a deer below had come to the water's edge to drink.
They had hoped that the strange creatures had been watching the deer and they had risen for another look.
The hoop was rotating once more, operated by a creature standing below it, who wore a small, scarlet head covering.
All of the being entities were small and had worn close-fitting dark suits and blue helmets.
One creature had placed a shiny green hose in the water, drawing in water and at the same time had discharged something from another hose.
Again the hoop had stopped and all the figures had frozen.
They had stared toward the couple on the rock.
Husband and wife had ducked and had counted to thirty before they had inched up for another look.
Two hours later, dazed and confused, missing time, the couple had ambled back into their boat and had headed for home.
They had both been grim faced and neither one had spoken for the whole trip back, and the further they had traveled from the lake, the more their amnesia of the incident had grown.
He had awoken, that evening, in a sweat from a nightmare.
The stars seen from his window had been bright against the blackness of the night sky.
That night, as his son had slept, he had stolen into the bedroom and had removed three books by J.M.Barrie; he had felt strongly protective and oddly repulsed by the idea of Peter Pan, a never-aging figure who comes down from the sky and floats children out of their bedroom, accompanied by a little ball of light: Tinkerbell.

BIO:
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.
Quantum mechanics, though firmly tested, is so weird and anti-intuitive that famed physicist Richard Feynman once remarked, “I think I can safely say that nobody understands quantum mechanics.” Attempts to explain some of the bizarre consequences of quantum theory have led to some mind-bending ideas, such as the Copenhagen interpretation and the many-worlds interpretation.
Now there’s a new theory on the block, called the “many interacting worlds” hypothesis (MIW), and the idea is just as profound as it sounds. The theory suggests not only that parallel worlds exist, but that they interact with our world on the quantum level and are thus detectable. Though still speculative, the theory may help to finally explain some of the bizarre consequences inherent in quantum mechanics, reports RT.com.
The theory is a spin-off of the many-worlds interpretation in quantum mechanics — an idea that posits that all possible alternative histories and futures are real, each representing an actual, though parallel, world. One problem with the many-worlds interpretation, however, has been that it is fundamentally untestable, since observations can only be made in our world. Happenings in these proposed “parallel” worlds can thus only be imagined.
MIW, however, says otherwise. It suggests that parallel worlds can interact on the quantum level, and in fact that they do.
“The idea of parallel universes in quantum mechanics has been around since 1957,” explained Howard Wiseman, a physicist at Griffith University in Brisbane, Australia, and one of the physicists to come up with MIW. “In the well-known ‘Many-Worlds Interpretation’, each universe branches into a bunch of new universes every time a quantum measurement is made. All possibilities are therefore realised – in some universes the dinosaur-killing asteroid missed Earth. In others, Australia was colonised by the Portuguese.”
“But critics question the reality of these other universes, since they do not influence our universe at all,” he added. “On this score, our “Many Interacting Worlds” approach is completely different, as its name implies.”
Wiseman and colleagues have proposed that there exists “a universal force of repulsion between ‘nearby’ (i.e. similar) worlds, which tends to make them more dissimilar.” Quantum effects can be explained by factoring in this force, they propose.
Whether or not the math holds true will be the ultimate test for this theory. Does it or does it not properly predict quantum effects mathematically? But the theory is certain to provide plenty of fodder for the imagination.
For instance, when asked about whether their theory might entail the possibility that humans could someday interact with other worlds, Wiseman said: “It’s not part of our theory. But the idea of [human] interactions with other universes is no longer pure fantasy.”

UFOs: Spy satellites or visitors from far-away galaxies?
UFOs: Spy satellites or visitors from far-away galaxies?
It was 1964. Late at night. The Northern California man had lost his hunting buddies in the woods near Lake Tahoe and climbed a tree to sleep.
Awakened by a glowing object landing on a nearby ridge, the man was soon fighting for his life against two neckless creatures and a robot before the beings emitted a noxious gas and knocked him out.
A tall tale? Drunken binge? Drug-induced hallucination (it was the '60s, after all)? No matter. That Placer County UFO sighting and thousands more were studiously collected and meticulously researched as part of the Air Force's strange, long-shuttered Project BLUE BOOK, a government program on the hunt for little green men -- or perhaps Soviet spies; no one is saying for sure.
For 22 years, the military seemed to spare little expense in chronicling humans' reported otherworldly encounters with glowing orbs, spinning spheres, flying ice cream cones, and more.
All of it had been hidden away in archive files until a UFO enthusiast posted 130,000 documents worth of BLUE BOOK material in a free online database for the first time last month. Dozens of Bay Area close encounters were included in the trove.
The project launched in 1947, two years after the end of World War II and just as the Cold War was gearing up. It concluded in 1969 without offering definitive proof of either aliens visiting Mother Earth or advanced spycraft launched by our enemies. But the goldmine of reports -- witness names redacted -- provides a snapshot of a nervous, suspicious era that drove our government to consider even the most fanciful reports.
"UFO investigations were taken very seriously," said Alejandro Rojas, editor of Open Minds magazine, who points to a 1947 report of an unidentified flying object near Mt. Rainier in Washington by private pilot Kenneth Arnold as the mother of modern UFO sightings.
"He was a credible person, and it hit the press and became a really, really big story," Rojas said.
Add a dash of post-war paranoia, and the Air Force dove in head first, he said.
"The public's imagination went wild with (UFOs)," agreed Jeff Underwood, historian of the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force. "It was a serious attempt to find if there was any validity to a UFO crisis or just mass hysteria.
"For the Air Force, it was driven more over concerns the Soviets created a super secret weapon than if there were little green men," he said.
In the end, many of the more than 12,000 sightings diligently investigated by the Air Force were chalked up to weather phenomena, meteors, satellites, a bright planet, balloons, birds or overactive imaginations.
The latter category would seem to fit the story told in 1964 by the lost hunter near Lake Tahoe, who swore he spent the night in a tree, firing arrows at three white "robot"-looking creatures, setting scraps of his clothing afire and hurling the pieces at the glowing aliens below.
Although the BLUE BOOK documents suggest the military's time commitment was considerable, it wasn't enough to please everyone. In 1966, then-Michigan congressman and future president Gerald Ford complained that the Air Force was dismissing scores of UFO sightings from his constituents as "swamp gas," and called for a Congressional inquiry into the phenomena.
He wasn't the only famous politician to get an earful from his constituents about UFOs. In a letter to President John F. Kennedy, 63-year-old Alice Reynolds of San Mateo said she was out feeding bread to the birds when she saw two stationary white balls, one with a tail, in the early morning sky on Nov. 13, 1961.
She complained that she tried to contact the Civil Defense Control Center in Belmont, but it wasn't open, so she called the police: "They were more curious as to why I (was) up at that time than what I called about," she wrote to the president.
The UFO witnesses ranged from grandmothers to amateur astronomers and even military pilots, who should have known a weather balloon when they saw one.
Several reports included sketches, charts and purported photographs of the objects.
Bay Area newspapers had a field day with one mysterious craft spotted by dozens of people as it drifted over the region on Feb. 7, 1950, including two nurses who swore they were "non-drinkers."
"Flying 'Ice Cream Cone' Reported Over Alameda," a San Francisco Chronicle headline screamed. The article featured a cartoon drawing of the flying confection with a Navy officer looking through binoculars yelling "Vanilla!" while a young boy said: "I say it's chocolate!"
A San Jose man eventually wrote to the Air Force explaining that his own close look at the object revealed a single-engine airplane with a reddish vapor trail behind it. Mystery solved, concluded investigators.
Popular culture drove the reports, Underwood said, and it ultimately slowed them down in the late 1960s.
"As soon as Star Trek started, I lost interest in UFOs," he laughed.
He wasn't alone. On Dec. 17, 1969, the Air Force terminated the project, citing conclusions from a University of Colorado report titled, "Scientific Study of Unidentified Flying Objects." Researchers determined there was no threat to national security, additional scientific knowledge or extraterrestrial vehicles uncovered by Project BLUE BOOK. However, 701 sightings remain "unidentified."

‘Alien’ Image Raises Questions of the Terrestrial Kind
‘Alien’ Image Raises Questions of the Terrestrial Kind
There has been a lot of buzz in recent weeks about what are being called “the Roswell slides,” a series of Kodachrome images recovered by a group of UFO researchers that include Don Schmitt, Tom Carey and Adam Dew. The images purportedly show an extraterrestrial biological entity, and there are some insinuations (well, several) that the creature is also somehow related to the Roswell Incident of 1947, and that the film stock matches the same period.
Among the recent announcements about this strange affair is that a press conference will be held in May that will feature the images publicly, along with more details about their backstory and possible implications.
Even more recently, however, one of the purported images has now appeared online, as my colleague Nick Redfern had pointed out in an article featured here at MU, where he offered only this on the matter:
“Of course, now, and as of a couple of days ago, you can see one of the images right here. What it shows, I don’t know. Many who have looked at it are underwhelmed. From what I see too, I can’t say I’m particularly excited either.”
I certainly don’t mean to be unfairly critical of the matter, since I don’t have the full back story on it at present, and few of us in the research community will have that story, apart from those directly involved with the purported “find”, at least until later this year.
However, if I had to base my expectations on the history of claims very similar to these–and their obvious dubious nature–I would have to agree with Nick that this is not particularly exciting. If anything, I would say that if the photo linked above (in Nick’s excerpt) is indeed one of the slides the group will be showcasing in May, then I am already beyond skeptical.
Now let me explain why.
The comments thread on the post Nick links to (which takes us to the UFO Conjecture(s) blog) also includes a link to a German language forum, which includes the original photo from which the “alien” image was taken. That image is a still capture from a trailer that had already been circulating the web, which actually depicts one of the slides in question as it is being examined (that image also presents a better context for the otherwise blurry image of the supposed “alien”, and I recommend viewing it here if you haven’t seen it already).
Looking at the image, the first thing I thought of (despite the blurriness of the picture) had been that the body of the purported “alien” bears strong resemblance to a child born with hydrocephalus, an abnormal condition where the amount of cerebrospinal fluid flowing to the brain increases, either due to the brain producing too much of it, or perhaps due to a blockage, or an absorption problem with the blood vessels in the region of the body. This often leads to swelling of the brain, and thus, an enlarged cranium with the infants in question (although the condition is not exclusive to infancy).
An undated photograph (described only as “very old”) from the archives of the University of Rochester shows a more extreme example of the condition in an infant, as depicted at the Wikipedia entry for Hydrocephalus:
An online image search will offer even more extreme examples of the condition than what we’ve featured above, but for illustrative purposes this image does give readers an idea of the physical appearance of an infant afflicted with the condition.
One thing we know about the purported “Roswell slides”, as written about by researcher Kevin Randle, is that there are still questions about who took the photos, and where… but that, at very least, the names of the individuals who had owned the images are indeed well known. Randle notes:
Tom (Carey) says something that I’m not sure he is going to be able to retreat from and I’m surprised that it was in the video clip. He said, “…We don’t know where the picture was taken. It’s taken indoors [so Ray or whoever, didn’t stumble across the body in the desert]… We don’t know exactly what circumstances the photographer was being a part of to take those pictures.”
They don’t know who took the pictures, only that they were found as a house was being prepared for an estate sale. The house had been owned by Bernerd and Hilda Ray and was in a collection of slides from the late 1940s and 1950s. They don’t seem to know who took the pictures or when they were taken or how Ray ended up with them and with that, the trail grows cold.
Coming back to the article at the UFO Conjecture(s) blog that features the photo, another commenter on the thread below the image notes something that is very interesting, although little background data is presented to support it. Nonetheless, I feel it is relevant to the present controversy, and submit it now for the reader’s consideration:
Hi, this is a photograph taken at a local museum in Colombia. The Rays were great travelers. We see the leg and the bottom of the skirt of a woman in the reflection of the glass. The arms of the creature are short, it is probably a child. It is well known that the EBE arms are long and come up to the knees. It is also possible that these two photographs have never been discovered in the trunk in the attic, but adds after. Moreover if we removed the idea that these two photographs were hidden in the lining of the chest, it completely changes the interest of this story. These are just pictures of the trip.
Colombia is cited as the (very general) location here, due to the belief that Bernard and Hilda Ray, whose former home had been the source of the discovery of these slides, had been travelers who might have visited a museum in that country, or perhaps some other country in Latin America, during the 1940s or 50s. Similar discussions about this possible connection have been brought up in commentaries that appear at the Paracast Forums, as well as an update that appeared on Tuesday, again at Kevin Randle’s blog. In that post, Randle features comparisons with a small human body provided to him by Gilles Fernandez, which “shows a small body that looks similar to that in the slide.”
Honestly, the image we have of the purported “alien” which researchers Schmitt, Carey and others are touting as final “proof” of an extraterrestrial body found at Roswell appears to be anythingbut. There is no need for harsh criticism here, although in the opinion of this researcher, a few questions that follow philosophical logic are warranted:
1) How can anything appearing solely in a series of photographs, without a physical specimen to match, offer “proof” that would meet the requirements of science? No biologist, chemist, or physicist would look at a photograph–blurry or not–as being representative of good, physical evidence.
2) Much like the argument with regard to the “Atacama Humanoid” featured in Stephen Greer’s documentary Sirius, how would anything that was discovered on Earth, let alone something so obviously resembling mummified human remains, offer “proof” of extraterrestrials? What evidence can conclusively present any connection between the two? At least with “Ata,” we had a physical specimen (Note that, as many reading this will already be aware, the Atacama humanoid was proven, despite apparent anomalies, to be human.)
3) When confronted with extraordinary claims of “alien life,” logic would further dictate, rather than making un-objective guesses that exert a bias equivalent to wish fulfillment, that prosaic explanations would be offered instead, and, if deemed necessary, either accepted or ruled out before leaping to otherwise illogical presumptions (Example: in likelihood, this image shows a case of hydrocephalus, rather than an alien being for which we can account for no known organism (i.e. an alien) against which we can make such an illogical comparison).
The problems here are indeed many, and in likelihood, from what we’re seeing already, the Roswell slides probably aren’t going to present that “smoking gun” that many in the UFO community have been long hoping for.
A man, who identifies himself as Martyn, said he spotted a UFO in Leeds. This sighting happened after a bright circular object was caught on video from the sky in a neighbouring city a day before.
The witness said that he noticed a brilliant white light at around 6:30 in the evening on February 8 at Kippax, Leeds. He said that the unusual aerial object changed in colours, which brought excitement to him while he was also overwhelmed by the sighting. He wanted to continue observing the odd aerial object, but he also thought of his wife who was waiting for him.
He said that his wife, as well as her brother, believed him when he told about his sighting. He said that his wife didn’t see any reason he would lie.
The images taken by Martyn look like a circular object caught by another person a day before in Bradford. But that was not the first time Martyn saw a UFO.
Martyn said he saw a bright light on 14 August 2014 at around 11 in the evening above the M62, heading towards the A1 in Castleford/Pontefract.
He said that he found a bright light while driving together with his partner’s brother. They tried to know if the object was moving, but it was hard for them because they were driving.
They concluded, however, that the object was moving slowly. They both believed right there that they saw something unusual and convinced that it was not a plane. Martyn said that they could distinguish an aircraft from a UFO because there were many planes in the area too. Martyn added that the object was not moving fast enough to be considered as a plane. The object then ascended and disappeared after two or three seconds.
Amateur astronomers have spotted two strange, cloud-like plumes high over Mars, deepening the mystery of what constitutes the Red Planet’s atmosphere, a study said Monday.
The phenomenon was observed on March 12, 2012 over the “terminator”, the boundary between day and night on Mars. A second was spotted nearby on April 6, 2012, and lasted about 10 days
One of the plumes developed in around 10 hours and lasted for about 11 days, shifting shape from “double blob protrusions” to pillars which merged into a “finger”, the study authors wrote.
Their trails were vast, extending between 500 and 1,000 kilometers (300 to 600 miles).
According to AFP, the “clouds” — if that is indeed what they were — were seen at high altitude, at about 200-250 kilometres, roughly above Terra Cimmeria, which is part of Mars’ rugged southern highlands, according a paper published in the journal Nature Geoscience by a team led by Agustin Sanchez-Lavega of the University of the Basque Country in Bilbao, Spain.
In the video, use the zoom and filters. The object is illuminated by the sun. The sun rises over the horizon of the Earth. The sun appears and the object becomes invisible because the sun shines brightly. Sorry for the poor video quality, but my computer is very old, and my computer is broken.

A piece of coal retrieved from a mine in Chernogorodskly Mines in between China, North Korea and the Sea of Japan. It appeared to have something embedded in it. Source:Initial examination of the strange object led researchers to assert it looked “very much like a toothed metal rail, created artificially. It was like parts [that] are often used in microscopes, various technical and electronic devices,” wrote Komsomolskaya Pravda (resident).
The coal in this area is dated to around 300,000,000 years ago in its formation.
The Pennsylvanian coal came from the Chernogorodskiy mines from the Khakasis region north of Mongolia.2 According to international Russian news sourceKomsomolskaya Pravda, biologist Valery Brier helped analyze the odd-shaped object. X-ray diffraction revealed that it was mostly aluminum with about two to four percent magnesium. This unique alloy is not generally produced today. And Brier noted that refined aluminum implies high technology.
This is not the only out of place/out of time artifact found in coal. The problem is, for some reason Creationists are using it to prove that the earth is not as old as we thought (sigh).
Source:Standard dating of the bituminous coal seam from which it was taken dates it from the Carboniferous Period, approximately 300 million years old. Certainly no human artifact could reside in such “ancient” strata. This “fossil” is anomalous indeed.
The boy who found it in the 1940s discovered it while shoveling coal into his home's furnace. One chunk, about 15 inches by 20 inches in area and 6 inches thick, was too large, and when he broke it a metal object protruded. Diligence completely removed all coal from the bell, which had a two-inch stem between the bell and a “human-like” figure on top–a man in a kneeling position, with arms and wings. Records show the coal had been excavated from a shallow mine near his home in Buckhannon, West Virginia.
The discoverer attended an ICR seminar in the mid 1970s with his amazing find. I asked if ICR could perform some tests on it. It migrated with me to Oklahoma University in 1975, where I remained on the faculty until 1984 and had access to numerous analytical devices and experts in several fields to help analyze the bell.
Nuclear Activation Analysis determined it to be primarily of bronze with a curious admixture of zinc. A micro probe showed no residual traces of coal. Historians compared the bell to artifacts from “all” cultures, and concluded the most similar artifact was from ancient Babel, with the figurine representing a pagan god. Both have a “horn” (broken on the bell) and wings. The face on both is eerily similar. A convention of bell experts did not know its place of origin, although some felt there was a similarity to semi-ancient bells made in India. Their suggestion was that some early American dropped a foreign bell down a well, to be incorporated into the coal.
Source:“The following text is a letter from Frank Kennard, the man who found an iron pot embedded in a large lump of coal. The Creation Evidence Museum has a copy of this letter on file. Sulphur Springs, Arkansas Nov. 27, 1948 While I was working in the Municipal Electric Plant in Thomas, Okla in 1912, I came upon a solid chunk of coal which was too large to use. I broke it with a sledge hammer. This iron pot fell from the center, leaving the impression, or mould of the pot in a piece of the coal. Jim Stull (an employee of the company) witnessed the breaking of the coal, and saw the pot fall out. I traced the source of the coal, and found that it came from the Wilburton, Oklahoma Mines. signed: Frank J. Kennard
A man named John Williams was out hiking in the 1990s and kicked a rock, then noticed something odd about it. It had prongs sticking out of it like a connector. Details are vague on this, but it is said that the prongs do not appear to be stone or metal, but something unknown.
Source:In June 1936 (or 1934 according to some accounts), Max Hahn and his wife Emma were on a walk when they noticed a rock with wood protruding from its core. They decided to take the oddity home and later cracked it open with a hammer and a chisel. Ironically, what they found within seemed to be an archaic hammer of sorts. A team of archaeologists checked it, and as it turns out, the rock encasing the hammer was dated back more than 400 million year; the hammer itself turned out to be more than 500 million years old. Additionally, a section of the handle has begun the transformation to coal. The hammer’s head, made of more than 96% iron, is far more pure than anything nature could have achieved without an assist from modern technology.
Conclusion
A possible explanation for these out of time/out of place items is this -
Source:As noted by Mark Isaac: “The cup appears to be cast iron, and cast iron technology began in the eighteenth century. Its design is much like pots used to hold molten metals and may have been used by a tinsmith, tinker, or person casting bullets… The cup was likely dropped by a worker either inside a coal mine or in a mine's surface workings. Mineralization is common in the coal and surrounding debris of coal mines because rainwater reacts with the newly exposed minerals and produces highly mineralized solutions. Coal, sediments, and rocks are commonly cemented together in just a few years. It could easily appear that a pot cemented in such a concretion could appear superficially as if it were encased in the original coal. Or small pieces of coal, including powder, could have been recompressed around the cup by weight (Isaac, 2005).
While this is a fairly reasonable explanation, these objects need(ed) serious observation closely to see just how much of the material around them varied to show layers of mineralization versus serious compressed coal or rock over millions of years. Considering the claims of very “Egyptian” looking items in the Grand Canyon and Death Valley giants' cave finds, one has to wonder about the style of these items and their origins, especially from a people who used a style Egyptians and Asians likely fashioned their own styles after and who were known as miners. I am intrigued, but I am not sold easy, so I will continue to follow such finds and report. As always, I am providing links below to go on your own excursion and learn more.
Since the 1940s, the U.S. Air Force has kept records of all of its investigations into extraterrestrial phenomena in one extensive report called Project Blue Book. This massive catalog of thousands of UFO and extraterrestrial reports from the 1940s to the 1970s has just been released online. The UFO enthusiast John Greenwald is the man responsible for bringing these UFO documents to the public. He’s spent the last decade collecting and digitizing the files through his web site The Black Vault. Greenewald believes these documents are only the “tip of the iceberg with what the military and U.S. government is hiding behind the UFO phenomenon, [though] they claim that this is it,” Greenewald says. But there are thousands of documents missing from the files including the infamous Roswell UFO incident.
Although we highly recommend you look through some of the files yourself, here are some of the cooler UFO case files we found.

Miles-long band of mysterious and unexplained holes in Pisco Valley, Peru
A mysterious site spans the landscape of Pisco Valley, Peru. On the same plateau where the famous Nazca Lines are found, thousands of holes have been carved into rock, creating a band that stretches further than a mile. It is unknown who carved these holes, or why they were created, but it is clear that this vast creation must have been a painstaking job, requiring many hours of manpower.
The band of holes in Pisco Valley, Peru literally contains thousands of holes. Described as “man-sized,” these holes are approximately a meter wide, and one to two meters deep. Some of the holes are quite shallow, giving the appearance that they had not yet been completed. They were carved into a band, approximately 8-10 holes wide, and span a mile across a rugged mountain terrain. The number of holes is estimated to be around 6,900. Some of the holes are lined up with precision, while others appear more staggered. It is estimated that it took decades to chip the stone away to reveal the band of holes, but it is unknown why this task was undertaken. Today’s inhabitants of the area do not know how the holes were created, why they were created, or who created them.

There have not been any artifacts uncovered to reveal any further information about the holes. Some believe that because the holes are “man-sized,” that they may be some sort of vertical grave, intended for burying the dead. However, this has not been substantiated by the recovery of any bones, artifacts, or other human remains to indicate a burial site. Some archaeologists have theorized that the holes were dug to store grain, and other essentials. Considering the quantity of holes, and the depth of each hole, it is likely that any civilization would have been able to store a great volume of grain. However, this theory has been criticized. Storage containers for grain could have been built with much more ease than the efforts required to carve the holes into the rock. For that reason, it is unlikely that any inhabitant would take on the arduous task of carving the holes if there were a better way to accomplish their storage goals.

While it is unknown who created the holes, they are clearly a man-made construction. A few miles to the east of the band of holes, satellite imagery reveals what appear to be the remnants of an ancient civilization. Although the area has not been identified as the location of a particular civilization, it closely resembles the ancient ruins of Machu Picchu. The mystery of who created the holes, and for what purpose, may be solved by further exploring what may be the remnants of a nearby ancient settlement.
Few other clues about the holes have been uncovered. The band of holes covers a mile of rocky mountain terrain, with a well-defined beginning and ending point. The ending point has brought forth some speculation due to its odd appearance. The band abruptly comes to an end near an area of land that has an unnaturally darkened color. Some have said that the darkened area appears to resemble an area that has been destroyed by an explosion. There have been alternative theories that the holes were created by extraterrestrial beings – perhaps ancient aliens who visited Earth, and left behind markings to help show where they had been.
Clearly, an image as striking as the band of holes in Pisco Valley, Peru is bound to bring forth many questions as to who created the holes, and why. We can be certain that such a labor-intensive creation must have held some sort of purpose for those creating it, although that purpose has left behind no indication of what it may have been. Not a single hair or tooth or artifact has been found to date to shed light upon this mysterious band, leaving it to be labeled as one of the unsolved mysteries of the world.

Aliens hebben mogelijk in een ver verleden micro-organismen in metalen bollen meegebracht naar de aarde. Dat stelt dr. Milton Wainwright van de Universiteit van Sheffield. In monsters die door een ballon in de stratosfeer zijn verzameld, heeft hij een piepkleine metalen bol gevonden met daarin een kleverige substantie.
Wetenschappers zeggen dat de bol, kleiner dan de doorsnee van een menselijke haar, een voorbeeld kan zijn van panspermie, waarbij leven bewust naar de aarde is gestuurd door een onbekende buitenaardse beschaving.
Wainwright zegt dat het vreemde materiaal dat uit de titanium bol komt bestaat uit micro-organismen. Hij erkent dat het vrijwel onmogelijk is om te bewijzen dat de piepkleine bol door aliens naar de aarde is gestuurd.
Wel zegt hij er zeker van te zijn dat de bol uit de ruimte afkomstig is. Dr. Wainwright en zijn team ontdekten de bol toen ze de monsters onderzochten die met ballonnen op 27 kilometer boven het aardoppervlak waren verzameld.
Een röntgenanalyse wees uit dat de bol bestaat uit titanium en vanadium. De bol werd bedekt door een laagje schimmelachtig materiaal. Wainwright claimt dat het object mogelijk onderdeel is geweest van een komeet of is gestuurd door een onbekende beschaving.
Ook NASA zou een ballon naar de stratosfeer hebben gestuurd om er te zoeken naar levensvormen. De bevindingen zijn gepubliceerd in het Journal of Cosmology.
Mysterieuze pluimen op Mars stellen wetenschappers voor raadsel
Mysterieuze pluimen op Mars stellen wetenschappers voor raadsel
Amateur-astronomen hebben mysterieuze pluimen op Mars gevonden. Het is niet duidelijk wat het natuurfenomeen precies is. In 2012 werd een oplichtende pluim van honderden kilometers lang waargenomen. Een aantal weken later werd het nog eens waargenomen, maar daarna niet meer.
De ene pluim ontstond op 12 maart 2012 in ongeveer 10 uur en bleef 11 dagen hangen. Een tweede pluim verscheen op 6 april 2012 en verdween na een dag of 10 weer. De pluimen strekten zich uit over een gebied van 500 tot 1000 kilometer.
In het tijdschrift Nature zeggen wetenschappers onder leiding van Agustin Sanchez-Lavega van de Universiteit van Baskenland in Bilbao voor een raadsel te staan. Ze weten niet precies wat er aan de hand is. “We hebben meer vragen dan antwoorden,” zegt één van hen.
Volgens één theorie zijn het wolken die bestaan uit kooldioxide of waterdamp. Het fenomeen is waargenomen op 200 tot 250 kilometer boven het Marsoppervlak, waar de dampkring te dun is voor dergelijke wolken.
Anderen zeggen dat het gaat om een vorm van noorderlicht. Het poollicht zou dan echter wel 1000 keer helderder zijn dan de aardse variant. Als één van deze theorieën klopt, houdt dat in dat de huidige modellen over de atmosfeer op Mars niet kloppen. Voor nu is het een mysterie wat er op de rode planeet is gebeurd.
De wereldbevolking lijkt het allemaal maar niets bijzonders te vinden dat er een stroom UFO’s de Popocatépetl vulkaan in Mexico in en uit vliegen.
De Azteken wisten wel beter want wat zij de “Rokende Berg” noemden was de vulkaan waarin de Goden woonden.
Toen de Spanjaarden onder leiding van Herman Cortez aan het begin van de zestiende eeuw Mexico veroverde op de Azteken, kwamen ze tot de ontdekking dat er twee bergen waren die heel speciaal waren voor het verslagen volk.
Twee bergen die zelfs in de maand augustus nog bedekt waren met sneeuw en waarvan de belangrijkste de “De Rokende Berg” werd genoemd welke dezelfde is als de Popocatépetl vulkaan.
Deze en de iets noordelijker gelegen Iztaccíhuatl waren heilig voor de Azteken. Dat was glashelder voor de Spaanse veroveraars.
Een en ander werd opgetekend door een Franciscaanse monnik die eveneens constateerde dat de Azteken regelmatig pelgrimstochten naar de toppen ondernamen om (menselijke) offers te brengen aan de Goden. Het is nooit duidelijk geworden welke Goden dat nu precies waren.
Wanneer we kijken naar wat er nu gebeurt bij de Popocatépetl dan wordt alles een stuk duidelijker. We zien op regelmatige basis UFO’s verdwijnen in de krater van de vulkaan. Dit is in lijn is met wat de Azteken zeiden, namelijk dat de Goden in de berg woonden.
Voor hen was het duidelijk. De Popocatépetl was heilig omdat dit de berg was waar de Goden in woonden. Tot op de dag van vandaag wonen diezelfde Goden daar nog steeds.
De UFO’s die verdwijnen in de vulkaan zijn meestal de grote sigaarvormige en ook nu is er weer een waargenomen vlakbij de krater.
Of de Azteken contact hadden met deze Goden/buitenaardsen is niet duidelijk. Wel dat ze er zodanig veel ontzag voor hadden dat ze zelfs bereid waren om (menselijke) offers te brengen.
Erich von Dänichen heeft in deze context decennia geleden een boek geschreven met de titel "Waren de Goden Kosmonauten".
Er staan honderden argumenten in om zijn redenering te staven. Von Däniken gaat ervan uit dat ruimtereizigers van een andere planeet onze planeet aarde hebben bezocht en op die manier de mens heeft gecreëerd. De aanwijzingen daarvoor zijn niet alleen te vinden in de archeologie maar ook in de scheppingsverhalen van de Soemeriërs, UFO-achtige voorwerpen op petroglyphen; rotstekeningen uit de steentijd, UFO's op de Egyptische en Soemerische hiëroglyphen, Indiase en Tibetaanse boeken met een handleiding voor het bouwen van een ruimteschip voor andere sterrenstelsels, en nog veel meer.
NASA Gears Up Its Initial Plan To Search For Extraterrestrial Life In Europa
NASA Gears Up Its Initial Plan To Search For Extraterrestrial Life In Europa
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration has announced a new project during the “State of NASA” speech by administrator Chris Bolden. The U.S. space agency seems preparing for first ever Europa mission. NASA is planning to send a probe to the moon of Jupiter.
NASA will request an additional $30 million to finance preliminary studies for the Europa mission. The amount will add up to the $100 million that the American agency already received in 2014.
Discovered 390 million miles away from Earth, Europa is an icy moon believed to hold massive oceans below its frozen surface. Scientists estimate the moon to harbor two or three times more liquid water than Earth.
The space agency has been working on mission concepts for 15 years and seems it already found the right one that is not too small or too expensive. According to one of the senior research scientists Robert Pappalardo, they call the concept, Europa Clipper.
Pappalardo revealed that the concept involves a spacecraft projected to orbit Jupiter and perform several fly-by’s of the planet’s moon for approximately over three years.
Somewhat similar project is already done by NASA in Saturn when they successfully orbited the planet with Cassini spacecraft. Cassini is still performing flybys of the planet’s moon Titan, which help scientists make a map of the moon’s surface. Researchers also collected data about the unique atmosphere of Saturn’s moon.
The Europa Clipper could perform the same mission with a focus on the analysis of the icy world’s potential for life. Europa measures slightly smaller than Earth’s moon with a diameter of 1,900 miles. Aside from its liquid water, scientists also thrilled with Europa’s heat source and nutrient cycling.
According to Kevin Hand, JPL deputy chief scientist for solar system exploration and an astrobiologist, Europa Clipper’s mission is to know whether Europa could be habitable, or it presents the elements required for life to flourish.

UFO found on monastery wall draws link between aliens and Vlad the Impaler
UFO found on monastery wall draws link between aliens and Vlad the Impaler
A photo taken by an Isreali tourist shows a UFO hovering above a building. The painting was found on a monastery wall in Vlad the Impaler's home town.
Photo courtesy lazerhorse.org
The strange history of Vlad the Impaler just got a little weirder as new information from a centuries-old painting attempts to draw a link between the fifteenth century prince and what appears to be a UFO. On Monday, a video posted on YouTube, declared the new photographic evidence, "a solid gold win" for those people convinced of ongoing UFO activity.
The UFO featured in the painting was originally captured on film by an Israeli tourist named Catalina Borta while she was visiting a small church in Sighisoara that's thought to date back to the 14th century. The painting's location is pertinent as Sighisoara - a small town in Romania - is thought to be the birthplace of Vlad the Impaler.
Vlad the Impaler's reputation for excessive cruelty made him famous in his time and infamous in history. One source stated that he was capable of unthinkable acts of brutality. "He roasted children, whom he fed to their mothers. And (he) cut off the breasts of women, and forced their husbands to eat them. After that, he had them all impaled."
Upon discovery of the disc-shaped object that appears to be hovering above a burning building, Borta sent the photo to the Israeli Extraterrestrials and UFOs Research Organization (EURA) who confirmed that the image did, indeed, appear to be extraterrestrial in origin.
This is far from the first UFO that's appeared in classical paintings. As far back as the Stone Age, ancient men appeared to fixate on objects hovering in the sky. Some of the most famous examples come from religious paintings during the Byzantine era. Most historians, however, disregard these paintings as evidence of extraterrestrial life because, they claim, that the images we commonly assume to be UFOs are in reality artistic techniques used to depict abstract ideas.
Whether or not this painting is more proof of extraterrestrial visitation remains to be seen. What do you think? Proof of aliens interacting with Vlad the Impaler, or simply an image of God drawn by a fifteenth century artist?

Physicist Shows ‘Time Travel’ Is Possible
Physicist Shows ‘Time Travel’ Is Possible
February 16, 2015 - Time travel is possible, but only under very particular circumstances according to Brian Cox, a physicist at the School of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Manchester.
Professor Cox experiments with a light showing that time moves faster for a stationary clock than a moving clock, which appears to move more slowly over the same length of time.
His conclusion is that time travel is possible, but only into the future.
Ten Amazing and Mysterious Geoglyphs from the Ancient World
The most well-known geoglyphs in the world are undoubtedly the Nazca Lines of coastal Peru. Yet, scattered across the globe are thousands of other geoglyphs that are equally as impressive. The earth carvings remain one of archaeology’s greatest mysteries. Despite a plethora of research on these amazing creations, the purpose of geoglyphs continues to elude researchers and remains a matter of conjecture. Some scientists believe they are linked to the heavens, representing constellations in the night sky. Other experts believe that the lines played a role in pilgrimage, with one walking across them to reach a sacred place. Yet another idea is that the lines are connected with water, something vital to life yet hard to get in the desert. Here we examine ten alluring geoglyphs from across the planet.
Located in the arid Peruvian coastal plain, some 400 km south of Lima, the geoglyphs of Nazca cover an incredible 450 km2. They are among archaeology’s greatest enigmas because of their quantity, nature, size and continuity. The geoglyphs depict living creatures, stylized plants and imaginary beings, as well as geometric figures several kilometres long. The startling feature of the Nazca geoglyphs is that they can only really be appreciated from the air, raising questions about how and why they were created. The Nazca lines number in their thousands and the vast majority of them date from 200 BC to 500 AD, to a time when a people referred to as the Nazca inhabited the region. The earliest lines, created with piled up stones, date as far back as 500 BC. Although the lines can in fact be seen from the ground, there is nothing remotely exciting about seeing them from this perspective. However, from the air, their true beauty and the wonders of their creation can be realised. Despite a plethora of research on these amazing creations, the purpose of the lines continues to elude researchers and remains a matter of conjecture. Some scientists believe they are linked to the heavens with some representing constellations in the night sky. However, research has found that there are just as many lines not related to constellations as those that are, meaning that this theory cannot provide a complete explanation. Other experts believe that the lines played a role in pilgrimage, with one walking across them to reach a sacred place such as Cahuachi and its adobe pyramids. Yet another idea is that the lines are connected with water, something vital to life yet hard to get in the desert, and may have played a part in water-based rituals. However, the fact the lines have remained enigmatic have promoted alternative theorists to float ideas about extraterrestrial communication or ‘messages to the gods’.
The geoglyphs of the Atacama Desert in South America are less familiar than the world-renowned Nazca lines, yet they are far more numerous in number, more varied in style, and cover a much larger area. One of the most intriguing and controversial of the Atacama desert geoglyphs is the so-called Atacama Giant, which continues to stir debate regarding its true meaning and interpretation. The Atacama Giant is an anthropomorphic geoglyph measuring 119 metres in height, making it the largest known geoglyph in the world. It is characterized by a square head and highly stylized long legs. Four lines can be seen coming out from the top of the giant’s head, as well as on each side of its head. There has been no shortage of explanations and theories to account for the strange features of this enormous geoglyph. According to one interpretation, it was a sort of astronomical calendar that indicated the movement of the moon. With this knowledge, it is said that the day, the crop cycle, and the seasons could be calculated. Another interpretation maintains that the Atacama Giant represents a deity worshipped by the local population. Other theories suggest extra-terrestrial visitations, marking of a pilgrimage route, or that it reflects an ancient type of language. Although the function of the geoglyphs of the Atacama Desert still remain a mystery, it is undeniable that they held great importance to the people who lived in the region. It is hoped that the geoglyphs will be preserved for future generations, and that further research may one day uncover their secrets.
Archaeologists are calling them the Nazca lines of Kazakhstan – more than 50 giant geoglyphs formed with earthen mounds and timber found stretched across the landscape in northern Kazakhstan. They are designed in a variety of geometric shapes, including crosses, squares, rings, and even a swastika, an ancient symbol that has been in use for at least 12,000 years. The geoglyphs, which are very difficult to see on the ground, were first spotted on Google Earth. Since then, a team of archaeologists from Kazakhstan and Lithuania, have investigated the giant structures using aerial photography and ground-penetrating radar. Their results revealed a wide variety of shapes ranging from 90 to 400 metres in diameter, mostly made of earthen mounds, but one – the swastika – was made using timber. Researchers have not yet dated the structures but their characteristics suggest they are around 2,000 years old. “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 archaeologists Irina Shevnina and Andrew Logvin, of Kostanay University, in an email to Live Science.
A recent study published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, revealed the discovery of a complex set of geoglyphs constructed by the mysterious Paracas people of Peru. The archaeological features, which date back 2,300 years, were found to be aligned to the sunset during the winter solstice, and are believed to have been created to mark ceremonial mounds and residential sites. Charles Stanish, the director of the Cotsen Institute of Archaeology at the University of California, and his team, found 71 geoglyph lines or segments, 353 rock cairns, rocks forming circles or rectangles, two U-shaped mounds, and one point at which a series of lines converged in a circle of rays. Many of the archaeological features were found to have astronomical alignments, others point to special places in the landscape, like some of the ancient pyramids in the region. The research team hypothesised that the lines served diverse purposes – some appear to have marked time, others may have attracted participants to attend important events, and yet others could have pointed the way to sacred structures.
Stretching from Syria to Saudi Arabia, thousands of ancient geoglyphs built from stone stretch across the desert plains. Known as the “works of old men”, some display a kite-like structure while others have wheel-like designs. Similar to the Nazca Lines of Peru, they come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes, with much diversity between structures. The geoglyphs are virtually invisible to those on the ground, but can be easily discerned by those flying overhead. The local Bedouins refer to them as the “works of old men” but have been unable to provide further insights into their creators.
Some of the circular structures contain two spokes that form a bar pointing in the same direction in which the sun rises and sets, while others contain spokes that do not appear to have any astrological meaning. It is believed that one type of structure, referred to as a “kite”, was actually used as part of a system for hunting. The long stone walls form a wide open area, which then funnels into a smaller, enclosed area. Wild animals would funnel from the larger area through the neck into the narrow area which was called the “killing floor.” This would make it easier to hunt wild animals, as their movement would be constricted once they reached the killing floor. There are an estimated 2000 kite structures across the deserts of Syria, Jordan, Southern Israel and Saudi Arabia illustrating that this hunting method must have been widely used.
Archaeologists recently carrying out excavations in Arequipa in southern Peru were surprised to find a large geoglyph which resembles the famous Nazca lines. The massive geoglyph is the first of its kind discovered in the region. It has been linked to the pre-Inca Wari culture (1200-1300 AD), although it is not clear how the researchers reached this conclusion. The geoglyph, which measures 60 metres by 40 metres, consists of a large rectangular image with geometric shapes and lines within it. If indeed the newly-discovered geoglyph was created by the Wari people, the finding may serve to shed new light on their cultural practices, which could have been influenced by the Nazca people. The Wari (Spanish: Huari) civilization flourished from about 600 AD in the Andean highlands and forged a complex society widely regarded today as ancient Peru’s first empire. Their Andean capital, Huari, became one of the world’s great cities of the time. Relatively little is known about the Wari because no written record remains, although thousands of archaeological sites reveal much about their lives.
Recent research revealed that an enormous geoglyph of a moose in the Ural Mountains, Russia, is among the oldest examples of land art in the world, dating back some 6,000 years. The moose measures approximately 275 meters (900 feet) in length (at its longest point), and was formed by ditches 30 centimeters (12 inches) deep and between 4.5 meters (15 feet) and 10 meters (32 feet) wide. The ditches were dug out and then filled with stones, with larger stones usually placed along the edges and smaller stones used to fill in the middle. The hooves of the moose were filled in with a mixture of clay and crushed stones. An analysis of stone tools found at the site revealed a style of lithic reduction that corresponds to the period between 3,000 and 4,000 BC. Perhaps one of the most interesting discoveries to emerge from recent excavation work at the site, is that an examination of more than 150 tools found around the geoglyph suggests that children were involved in its construction, as well as adults. “But it was not a kind of slave labour of children,” said Stanislav Grigoryev, a senior researcher from the Chelyabinsk History and Archaeology Institute. “They were involved to share common values, to join something important to all the people.”
Huge stone circles in the Middle East have been imaged from the air, but researchers remain puzzled as to why they exist, and who made them. Eleven big circles dot the landscape across Jordan and Syria. They date back at least 2,000 years, but may even be pre-historic, created in a time before the invention of writing. The geoglyphs are very large, some of them approximately 1,300 feet in diameter, and are composed of short, stone walls built from local rocks. Researchers say the circles would have required some planning, as many of the circles are very precise. It was likely there was some sort of “architect” to head up each project. Researchers question whether the circles were used to maintain animal herds, or may have been areas of burial, but so far no contemporary remains – or any obvious practical uses – have been recovered or gleaned from the sites. Thousands of other ancient structures have been found across the Middle East, such as wheels, walls, pendants (lines to and from burial cairns) and kites (stone walls used to drive animals into kill areas). Much like the enigmatic Nasca lines of Peru – giant geoglyphs half a world away from Jordan – the intentions of the builders, and the purpose of the designs remain, for now, a very baffling mystery.
In Western Bolivia, thousands and thousands of perfectly straight paths are etched into the ground, creating an amazing sight. These lines were carved into the ground over a period of 3,000 years by indigenous people living near the volcano Sajama. It is unknown exactly when or why they were constructed, and it is hard to imagine how the construction of something of such magnitude could pre-date modern technology. The Sajama lines cover an area of approximately 22,525 square kilometers, or 8,700 square miles. They are perfectly straight lines, formed into a web or network. Each individual line is 1-3 meters, or 3-10 feet wide. The longest lines measure 20 kilometers, or 12 miles in length. The creation of these lines without the aid of modern technology is a marvel. They were etched into the ground by scraping vegetation to the side, and scouring away dark surface material consisting of soil and oxidized rock, to reveal a light subsurface. The precision of the Sajama lines is remarkable. While many of these sacred lines extend as far as ten or twenty kilometers (and perhaps further), they all seem to maintain a remarkable straightness despite rugged topography and natural obstacles. Some believe that the indigenous people used the lines as a navigational tool during sacred pilgrimages. Wak’as (shrines), chullpas (burial towers) and hamlets are interspersed among the lines, creating a cultural landscape.
The Paracas Candelabra is a prehistoric geoglyph found in the Paracas Peninsula at Pisco Bay, Peru. With a large, branchlike appearance, the purpose and meaning of the Candelabra remains unknown. The Paracas Candelabra is estimated to be approximately 595 – 800 feet tall and can be seen from as far as 12 miles out at sea. The geoglyph was created by cutting two feet deep into the hardened soil, with rocks placed around the figure. The shape of the geoglyph is mysterious and somewhat difficult to describe. Some have likened it to a cactus plant, while others believe it looks more like a three-branched candlestick, hence the name “candelabra.” The meaning and purpose of the Paracas Candelabra are unknown to this day. The Conquistadors supposedly believed the geoglyph represents the Holy Trinity, and took it as a good omen and a sign that they should proceed with their quest to conquer and Christianize the locals, although no clear historical records authenticate this assertion. Some believe the Paracas Candelabra is a representation of a hallucinogenic plant called Jimson weed, while others have suggested that the geoglyph represents a lightning rod of the god Viracocha, who was the great creator god in the pre-Inca and Inca mythology in the Andes region of South America. The true meaning and purpose of the Paracas Candelabra remain elusive to this day, and may be forever lost to history. Nevertheless, the enormous geoglyph continues to attract people from all over the world who marvel at its sheer size and wonder about its origin and creation.
A video captured recently and uploaded to Youtube appears to show UFO-like lights flickering over Phoenix, Arizona leading some people to believe that the infamous Phoenix lights may have returned some 18 years after they originally appeared in 1997.
In 1997 there were reports of multiple sightings of a mile long boomerang-shaped UFO over the state of Arizona by over 10,000 witnesses, including police, military personnel and Republican Governor Fife Symington.
In the video below you can see the original footage of the UFO sighting in Phoenix which was captured on March 13,1997.
On March 14, 2009, a man records a flying saucer behind his house and suddenly a huge tubular shaped UFO appears very low to surface and disappears while another appears from thin air with a speeding object shooting from it.
Witness Statement: "The UFO is very close not more than 5,000 feet. This UFO is harvesting something from our atmosphere. at 1:11 you will see the ship loading a luminous object into its bottom. I believe the orb is a spotter, and the other larger craft is a harvester."
Every once in awhile an extraordinary piece of video comes across my desk. This one definitely qualifies as noteworthy. This came in from one of you loyal Paranormiacs. Many thanks for this user submission.
What makes this video interesting is that it is very clear not blurry. This goes WAY beyondregular lights in the sky. The main UFO in the foreground appears to drip a glowing substance, possibly plasma. This is probably what the “Maury Island Incident” looked like. As far as I know no dogs were murdered this time.

The Owl-UFO Connection Continues
The Owl-UFO Connection Continues
Well, now, this is very interesting. As you may have seen, I penned an article here at Mysterious Universe a few days ago on the strange saga of the legendary “Owlman” of Mawnan, Cornwall, England. For those who don’t know, the Owlman is just about the closest thing that the UK has to Point Pleasant, West Virginia’s equally legendary Mothman.
Like Mothman, the Owlman is a winged humanoid that sports a pair of fiery red eyes. Sightings of the beast have been made – sporadically – in the direct vicinity of the village’s church since 1976. My new article, however, took a decidedly different approach to the Owlman phenomenon, in the sense that it suggested confrontations with the creature may actually have been “screen memories” designed to mask a close encounter of the UFO kind.
My reasoning for suggesting this is simple: as my earlier article shows, there are numerous cases on record that link sightings of what are perceived as owls (and sometimes as impossibly large owls) and UFOs together, both in terms of the time-frame and the geographical location. Indeed, Mike Clelland has written an entire, excellent paper on this very issue of how and why owls and alien incidents go together, hand in glove.
All of this brings me to two matters that, given the location – Mawnan – cannot be a coincidence. Number One: Liz Randall is a friend of mine who has compiled an excellent, two-volume collection of her writings on all things paranormal, titled From Lyonesse to Alien Big Cats and Back Again. Liz referred me to an article she wrote in 2004 that deals with something that her daughter experienced in 2003 at the church, itself . Liz said, in 2004:
“Very early one morning a year ago, in the late summer of 2003, my adult daughter, who lives in Mawnan Smith, Cornwall, had a strange experience. Being a thoughtful neighbour, and not wanting to disturb anyone, at 02:00 a.m. she and a friend had wanted to listen to some music. So she took her car up to the car park of the old local church because it’s such an isolated spot.”
Liz continued: “After about ten minutes my daughter and her friend suddenly became aware of a block of blue/white light above their heads. It was pulsating in that it stopped and then started again, for seconds at a time, although it remained stationary overhead. Neither were aware of any missing time, but they also had no idea how long they remained near the churchyard before they went home. And, when they reached home, both were so tired that they simply went to sleep without checking the clock.”
But, things don’t end there, which leads us into Number Two. Liz also directed me to a case that author and anomalies authority Paul Devereux wrote on high-strangeness at Mawnan Church. Paul wrote, of a November 1996 case that was brought to his attention: “…a woman on the Lizard peninsula saw a ‘block of light’ materialise above Mawnan Smith church. It was rectangular and orange-red in colour. As it hung motionless, another block of light ‘switched on’ some distance away. The first one went out, then reappeared.”
With that said, let’s take a closer look at Mawnan and it church, both of which appear to be magnets for paranormal and Fortean activity. The Church of England says: “Mawnan is probably named after a sixth century Saint Maunanus. Little is known about him but probably he was a Breton monk who landed here about 520 AD. The site of this church was already sacred since it is built within the confines of an ancient earthwork, which was still in an excellent state of preservation when the churchyard was enlarged in 1920.”
Interestingly, ancient earthworks of the type referenced in the paragraph above, are very often the focus of supernatural activity. I know this, as I grew up very near to one in Staffordshire, England. Its name is Castle Ring, which was built during the Iron Age and was home to a Celtic tribe called the Cornovii. I can say with certainty that Castle Ring has a long history of encounters with UFOs, Bigfoot-type creatures, spectral figures, and much more. Why? Well, that’s the big question that, unfortunately, eludes us.
But what I would say, however, is that I think investigating the Olwman itself – as a solitary, stand-alone mystery – will only allow us to see a small portion of what’s afoot in this particularly mysterious part of Cornwall.
In our quest for the truth of the beast, and of the Owlman/anomalous owls/UFO connection too, it is very likely Mawnan itself that we should be focusing on. It may well be an under-appreciated equivalent of one of John Keel’s legendary “window areas,” places where just anything and everything weird can be seen and encountered…

Imagine a universe awash with intelligent beings
Imagine a universe awash with intelligent beings
Imagine a universe awash with intelligent beings
Just for a moment, imagine, a universe awash with life, where we humans are not the only intelligent beings around. What might these alien races look like?
Could we communicate with them, or even recognize them as intelligent? And what would they make of our violent and dangerous species? Might they take one look, and decide not to bother with such primitive beings? A planetary nursery filled with spiteful, galactic infants.
On the other hand, in our imaginary scenario, they may enrich us with scientific knowledge beyond our imagination. Or could an encounter with aliens have a more destructive outcome?

The Kingman AZ UFO Crashes With UFO Researcher Harry Drew
The Kingman AZ UFO Crashes With UFO Researcher Harry Drew
The Kingman UFO Crashes of 1953 which has been clouded by what seems to be an organized diversionary effort to keep the truth from being revealed.
Claims about the date of the crash, the recovery process, the crafts' crew members, the highways taken, and underground bases, have been distorted and manipulated to keep the public from knowing what really happened at Kingman Arizona in May 1953.
This case has been investigated by Harry Drew, who resides in Arizona and is Director of the Archaeology and Anthropology museum. He said that the Air force recovered the UFOs and found four living Aliens inside the craft. The Aliens were taken to Area 51.
Drew's work sets the record straight and provides compelling new evidence previously unknown about the Kingman Arizona UFO crashes of 1953.
Jan. 15 began as a typical evening in Friday Harbor for Jim Dunn. He and his wife were driving north on Mullis Street planning to attend a lecture at the University of Washington Laboratories on salmon migration.
At about 6:15 p.m. Dunn noticed three orange lights in the sky. He thought a plane was making a "very low approach" to land at the airport, which he thought was odd. He next assumed the lights must be a helicopter, but there was something weird about the movements.
Dunn said he stopped his car and pulled over by Browne's Home Center to watch the lights.
"It was three orange lights moving independently," Dunn said. "At first I rationalized it was a drone, but they were moving too rapidly for a drone."
He said the lights traveled roughly west above Spring Street as if coming from the harbor.
Dunn, a retired architect who has lived on San Juan Island since 2000, said it was the first time he saw something that could be considered a UFO.
The next day he contacted air traffic control at Naval Air Station Whidbey Island. The controller told Dunn he would check the radar tapes. There was a helicopter listed as being in the area, but it was 45 minutes after the sighting, Dunn said.
"I stopped our car so we could watch since the lights were starting to bob up and down. I said they had to be helicopters. But then they almost appeared to be going down behind the buildings in town. They stopped getting closer and suddenly started climbing at a very high speed headed back northwest. They grew dimmer and one at a time, blinked out and were gone. The whole duration of this sighting was about two minutes. I kept trying to find an explanation for what we were seeing. I wish I had immediately reached for my iPhone to get a video. I knew they were unconventional aircraft since they didn’t have red and green navigation lights. Then the erratic flight and changing speed ruled out any aircraft I have ever seen. My wife and I are both private pilots and have flown into the Friday Harbor airport hundreds of times."
Dunn was contacted by Peter Davenport, director of the National UFO Reporting Center. He suggested contacting media outlets to see if other witnesses might come forward.
"The information they have might permit triangulation on the object, which would allow calculation of how far away from you it (was), and what its size was," Davenport said.
Dunn said he did an Internet search and found similar descriptions of sightings, but not exactly what he had seen. He considered it may be a military craft, but if it was the type of drone he is familiar with it would have taken "three separate people to fly it."
He estimated when the lights moved west and disappeared behind the trees it was traveling more than 100 mph.
"These lights were completely disjoined," Dunn said. "It was inexplicable."
If anyone saw the lights on Jan. 15 between 6:15 and 6:30 p.m. contact the Journal ateditor@sanjuanjounal.com.

Cigar-Shaped UFO’s Exposed (VIDEO)
Cigar-Shaped UFO’s Exposed (VIDEO)
Project Paperclip the post World War II covert operation that divided up Adolph Hitlers scientists between the Russians and U.S.A. had many unanticipated consequences. One of our Nazi’s was one of the brilliant minds behind the V2 rockets that rained high powered death on London and beyond during WWII. A true pioneer of rocketry and mass murder was a turd in a nice suit named Wernher Von Braun. One of Wernher’s mentors was another Nazi scientist Dr. Herman Oberth.
Oberth was vocal about his beliefs on UFO’s and alien contact. He stated publicly :
Today, we cannot produce machines that fly the same as UFOs do. They are flying by means of artificial fields of Gravity. This would explain the sudden changes of directions. This hypothesis would also explain the piling-up of these discs into a Cylindrical or cigar shaped “Mothership” upon leaving the Earth. Because it is in this fashion, that only one field of gravity be required for all the flying saucers. We cannot take credit for our record advancement in certain scientific fields alone. We have been HELPED. And we have been helped by the people of other WORLDS. – Dr. Herman Oberth NASA Space Scientist, 1972
Throughout the history of UFO sightings, cigar-shaped craft have been reported with accompanying speculation that these large objects are “Motherships” that come from very far away and contain the smaller, oft-reported flying saucers or triangular craft that people claim to see. The “cigar” craft have been compared to ocean-going military aircraft carriers.
On July 21st of 2011, when Space Shuttle Atlantis landed at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida and headed to a museum, we were told that the U.S. no longer had any space-capable vehicles, and that we would have to rely on Russia and other countries to get into orbit and visit the Space Station, says Dr. Richard Boylan
That was a lie.
In actuality, since the late 1980s, the U.S. has contributed to a secret Space Fleet, its program code-named “Solar Warden”, and which has now grown to eight cigar-shaped motherships (each longer than two football fields end-to-end) and 43 small “scout ships,” asserts Boylan. The Solar Warden Space Fleet operates under the US Naval Network and Space Operations Command (NNSOC) [formerly Naval Space Command], headquartered in Dahlgren, Virginia. There are approximately 300 personnel at NNSOC’s Dahlgren facility. The Solar Warden Space Fleet’s vessels are staffed by Naval Space Cadre officers, whose training has earned them the prestigious 6206-P Space Operations specialty designation, after they have graduated from advanced education at the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, California and earned a Master of Science degree in Space Systems Operations, according to Dr. Boylan.
Both the Navy and the Marine Corps furnish men and women officers to this program. Jarheads in space? You betcha!
Because of its advanced technological position, the U.S. has been designated by Star Nations to a lead position in providing space security for Earth. This space-security mission is two-fold. One part of the Space Fleet’s mission is to prevent rogue countries or terrorist groups from using space from which to conduct warfare against other countries or within-country targets. Star Nations has made it quite clear that space is to be used for peaceful purposes only.
The second part of the Space Fleet’s mission is to prevent the global-elite control group, the Cabal, from using its orbital weapons systems, including directed-energy beam weapons, to intimidate or attack anyone or any group it wished to bend to its will. Because the Space Fleet has the job of being Space Policeman within our solar system, its program has been named Solar Warden.
The Space Fleet operates not only with classified U.S. Government authority but also with the secret authority of the United Nations, because the Space Fleet’s mission is to protect the entire Earth and all countries. And the Solar Warden program operates under authorization by Star Nations, the organization of advanced intelligent civilizations in space. The Solar Warden Space Fleet resulted from Star Nations’ prompting of the leadership within the United Nations to take responsibility for law enforcement of near-space to prevent any Human mis-use of space.
Be clear that Star Nations has not given the U.S. Government [exclusive] authority to police the Earth. The U.S. has no authority from Star Nations to engage in any international policing activities. Star Nations has the policy position that the citizens of Earth have the responsibility to work out the operation and regulation of their societies as best they can.
Further, the “Solar Warden” Space Fleet was mostly constructed by U.S. aerospace Black Projects contractors, but with some contributions of parts and systems by Canada. United Kingdom, Italy, Austria, Russia, and Australia. And while the majority of the people staffing the motherships and scout ships of the Solar Warden Space Fleet are Americans (U.S. Naval Space Cadre), there are also some crew members from UK, Italy, Canada, Russia, Austria, and Australia.
Additionally, the mandate and jurisdiction of the Solar Warden Space Fleet is space. It does not have jurisdiction and does not meddle in Human affairs on the ground, nor Human activity occurring within Earth’s atmosphere. Those are the jurisdictions of the respective governments in each country and the air space above their territories. Solar Warden Space Fleet’s mandate is only to keep space peaceful, and free from misuse by Earth countries to conduct war-like or illegal activities in space, such as nuclear intercontinental ballistic missile launches or unilaterally confiscating the natural resources of another planet or moon. Solar Warden does not replace the responsibility of Earth governments to conduct their own law enforcement and policing on the ground or in the air over their countries. And Solar Warden Space Fleet’s mandate includes preventing the Cabal from misusing space for any of their dominance, control, intimidation and exploitation agenda.

UFO sighting above Moon on 12th February 2015
New interesting video footage of a dark UFO sighting recorded while hovering above Moon on 12th February 2015.
Witness said: This clip shows a crazy moon object (UFO) and Jupiter using eyepiece projection to film. Jupiter does not turn blue but does have a blue ring that is barely visible across the top of the disc..
Triangle shaped UFO sighting over Oregon on 30th September 2014
Triangle shaped UFO sighting over Oregon on 30th September 2014
Interesting video footage of a bright Triangle shaped UFO sighting over Oregon on 30th September 2014.
Witness said: Five months have elapsed since the last filming on September 30, 2014. Therefore looking back and reviewing past footage to share the more unique aspects of video captures during the height of activity. This clip shows a triangle of red lights that briefly appear in brilliance.
Inwoners van Tsjeljabinsk, de Russische stad die in 2013 werd getroffen door een meteoor, hebben alarm geslagen over vreemde blauwe sneeuw waarmee de straten van de stad waren bedekt.
“Toen de zon vanochtend opkwam en iedereen blauwe daken en blauwe parkeerplaatsen zag, raakten we een beetje in paniek,” zei inwoner Dmitry. De blauwe sneeuw is met name in het industriegebied waargenomen.
Het bizarre fenomeen in het stadje in de Russische Oeral zaaide paniek. Sommigen lokale bewoners speculeerden dat de sneeuw besmet was met giftige stoffen.
Correspondent Alexandra Artamonova van het lokale persbureau Telefact zei dat ze ‘een zoete smaak in haar mond kreeg’ op het moment dat ze in de buurt van de blauwe sneeuw kwam. Ze voegde toe dat mensen die in de buurt van de sneeuw waren geweest, last hadden gekregen van keelpijn.
Noch het ministerie voor Noodgevallen, noch het ministerie van Milieu heeft gereageerd op de kwestie, aldus de media. LifeNews claimde echter dat er een lekkage was geweest in één van de kleurstoftanks van een fabriek waar verf voor paaseieren wordt gemaakt. Het bedrijf liet weten dat de kleurstof geen gevaar vormt voor de volksgezondheid.
Triangle UFO filmed over Santa Clara, California 15-Feb-2015
Triangle UFO filmed over Santa Clara, California 15-Feb-2015
New footage of a triangle-shaped formation hovering in the night sky above Santa Clara in California. This was taken on Sunday, 15th February 2015.
Witness report:This took place at about 11PM. I was heading southbound on Lawrence Expwy and started filming at about the top of the bridge above El Camino Real. There was absolutely no sound when I saw this flying object. As I approached closer to it I became very surprised. That’s when I started speaking. This flying object had basically stopped in the air and was hovering very close to a house. It was basically hovering in a residential like area. The area was right around Benton and Lawrence Expwy on the side towards the new Apple headquarters.
I stopped filming because this big wall protecting the residential area from the Expressway blocked me. Also, I had merged all the way to the right and did not want to stay there.
I quickly took a U-Turn to capture more footage and find out what it really was. It had completely vanished. I even drove all the way back to the top of the bridge over El Camino Real. Nothing.
Drove up to the top of the Kaiser Permanente hospital parking lot building. Still no sight of it anymore. It was just gone.
Still wondering what the hell it was.
As I was driving I didn’t get a chance to get a full 100% view of it. From what I remember it was somewhat triangle in shape. Also metal like. It almost seemed like a big part of it what somewhat translucent. Maybe it was the lighting from the street lamps reflecting off it? Like I said, it seemed very low to the ground. Maybe even 50 yards from the top of the houses.

Sea Gull Park Beach, Satellite Beach Florida – February 2, 2015
It was a nice nigt out with a full moon. My family and I took a night walk to the beach and at about 7:50pm, two bright lights appeared in the sky. It wasn’t something shot in the air. Nothing came down. They looked like balls of fire. They stayed lit for about 10 min. One went out before the other. When they went out they fizzled out. Here are the pictures I took. I used a filter.

Sitges (Barcelona) Spain – 2015 Herewith I would like to report a strange phenomenon that is repetitive. See attached files dated. Me and my kids we noticed begin of January that in between the stars, much lower in the sky and seeming much nearer, 3 bright lights. If we look direction sea, 1 on the left, one on the front and one on the right that look quite not far away. These 3 points in the sky strangly change colors green-red-white at the second. Because we noticed that they are posted there a couple of times a week now for more than a month. Not every day. Please note that here we have mostly clear skies. No cloud. We started to make series of pictures at different dates. The time between the pictures in the series are not more dans seconds. Enlarge the tiny point in the middle of the pictures to see the shape shiftings. I don’t believe in chinese balloons that would post each time at the same spots and being static. You can in all cases see the objects changing shape. Also, they are not posted there all night but for a couple of hours maximum each time then disappear. Would like to hear what you think about this.

Saskatchewan, Canada – December 2014 Over bradwell resevoir saskatchewan canada approximately 10pm a day it two before New Year’s Eve. 2015
I already sent info and pics to MUFON. Did 2 phone interviews and all they could tell me was filed as unexplained. They did say one thing though and that was that the pics were not altered in any way. Red, the reddest I’d ever seen more like glowing energy, silent low in sky, if you zoom in on pics you will see that when flash went off looked like super bright large white ball. The ones where flash didn’t go off it was red. Noticed later on computer that top right of frame had purple object which showed up in next frame next to red object. There were 2 we saw 1st one I didn’t bring phone with me and when I returned to apartment like deja vu. My wife told me to take phone and take pics as I dashed out the 2nd time. After returning 2 and time went immediate to balcony expecting to maybe see more. Within minutes a large military dark gray with no markings flew over us toward where objects went at about same height as objects. It literally shook our building where the object made no sound.
August 2002 an UFO was observed above Catania, Italy. An amateur photographer has taken a photo on which was then detected a strange object. Intrigued by the finding, he informed about the photo the Centro Ufologico Mediterraneo (C.UFO.M.), whose president, dr. Angelo Carannante, has received the interesting picture on the mail of official website, www.centroufologicomediterraneo.it, and alerted the specialists of the research center. On official CUFOM youtube channel, “CUFOMTV”, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ITXpLvHJB-w, it’s possible to find a video trailer about this interesting UFO sighting. News updates and further information about the results of the investigations will be given soon.

It was a hot summer’s night on July 23, 2012 when a resident on the south side of Kuna saw something in the sky he couldn’t explain. “I was standing outside of my house on the front porch looking at the stars while talking with my mother-in-law,” he reported to a UFO website www.UFOStalker.com. “She said, ‘Look at that,’ and when I looked up I saw a large oval shaped light, and it flew extremely fast right over the top of our neighborhood from North to south. It was not man made, the speed it was traveling was outrageously fast, and made NO sound at all. “It couldn’t have been more than 500 feet above us, unless it was so large that it looked low to the ground, but I am pretty sure it was lower to the ground judging from where it was in the sky in relation to the stars in the sky.
At first I tried to rationally explain away what we had both just saw, but there is no explanation for it. With my background as a Marine Crash Fire Rescue Specialist it was required of us to know everything about every aircraft that we encountered in the military, and I know for a fact that I have never seen or heard of anything like this before.
“We lost sight of it after it flew over our house, and I ran to the back yard to see if I could see the tail end of it, but it was moving so fast that it was gone when I got to the back yard.” There are many sightings of unidentified objects in the skies above Kuna and Melba. A quick search online found many reports to various online UFO websites in recent years. The National UFO Reporting Center, just one of many online sites that record witnesses experiences, reported eight sightings in Kuna and one in Melba since 2012. There are many more from the surrounding area. Be sure to look up!
Minutes of mystery elapsed during the recording of a television show, after a group of people witnessed a flying object- in bold daylight- in the skies over Miraflores.
The images shared by YouTuber Eduardo Chavez indicate that this occurred when congressman Renzo Reggiardo was recording his “Alto al Crimen” program around 10:30 a.m.. “A strange object suspended in mid-air could be seen in the heavens,” reads the video description.
The congressman interrupts his presentation – as shown in the clip – to witness the strange object that caught the attention of the production staff.
Valia Barack, journalist and director of the congressman's show, confirmed that the images were real through her Twitter account. Comments about it suggest that a drone could be involved.
De beroemde Phoenix Lights zijn terug ( update-video )
De beroemde Phoenix Lights zijn terug ( update-video )
Phoenix in de Amerikaanse staat Arizona is met recht een UFO hotspot te noemen.
Na de beroemde Phoenix Lights uit 1997 heeft het er alle schijn van dat deze lichten weer helemaal terug zijn.
Update: 15 februari 2015:
Het blijft ongemeen spannend op UFO gebied in de Amerikaanse stad Phoenix.
Een dag voordat de opnames werden gemaakt zoals die te zien zijn in het onderstaande originele artikel, werd de navolgende fascinerende video gemakat.
Drie jongens liepen in de wijk Sunnyslope van de stad Phoenix en waren onderweg naar het huis van een vriend.
Toen zagen ze het volgende:
Is het één groot moederschip of is het een serie kleinere UFO’s in formatie?
De volgende video is in principe dezelfde opname, maar dan met meer uitvergrotingen.
Hoe dan ook, de vreemde lichten zijn terug in Phoenix.
Origineel artikel:
10 februari 2015
Het verhaal begint met de wereldberoemde Phoenix Lights op 13 maart 1997. Een fenomeen waarvan duizenden mensen getuige waren zoals wij eerder schreven.
Misschien wel één van de meest besproken UFO waarnemingen ooit betreft The Phoenix Lights.
Hiervan waren duizenden inwoners van de Amerikaanse stad getuige op 13 maart 1997. Mensen zagen deze UFO's in allerlei variaties. Van losse bolvormige objecten tot formaties in een V vorm en/of een driehoeksvorm.
In eerste instantie claimde de luchtmacht verantwoordelijkheid want het zouden fakkels geweest zijn die gebruikt waren als onderdeel van een oefening. Zeventien jaar later bleek dat er die avond helemaal geen vliegtuigen van de luchtmacht in de lucht waren geweest boven Phoenix.
Verder zijn er inmiddels beelden opgedoken van een militaire jet die een eind buiten de stad de UFO’s achterna joeg.
Eind vorig jaar het vreemde verhaal van een vrouw die met haar kind in een park loopt in Phoenix en daar een helikopter ziet die een UFO achterna zit.
En nu zijn zo te zien de originele Phoenix Lights weer terug.
Afgelopen 3 februari reed een stel in de buitenwijken van Phoenix toen ze rechts boven de snelweg een serie vreemde lichten waarnamen.
Lichten die of afzonderlijk waren of die toebehoorden aan één groot schip, maar waarvan duidelijk was dat ze in een bepaalde formatie vlogen.
Later vervaagde de formatie en op een zeker moment was er nog een grote ronde gloeiende oranjeachtige UFO te zien.
Er zijn ook hier weer meerdere getuigen die onafhankelijk van elkaar deze lichten hebben waargenomen, zoals in onderstaande video wordt uitgelegd.
Dat er zich vreemde dingen afspelen in de buurt van Phoenix lijkt duidelijk. Ook nu echter weer geen duidelijke antwoorden over wat het is waar we nu eigenlijk mee te maken hebben.
1956 Maui UFO Sighting Report Included in Air Force Files
1956 Maui UFO Sighting Report Included in Air Force Files
By Wendy Osher
1956 Maui UFO Sighting Report
A 1956 UFO report from Maui is included in now unclassified documents that were compiled and investigated by the US Air Force.
According to the Air Intelligence Information Report, a 56-year-old retired Lahaina woman reported seeing an orange object with a “flame” and “muffled roar” during the night time hours on Jan. 20, 1956.
According to the report, the woman observed the object coming fast from the distance, then slowing and hovering, and finally fading into the distance into a valley on the Island of Molokaʻi, about 10 miles across the channel.
The report states that the woman observed the object at night for about 25 minutes while looking through a screen window.
Investigators noted that, the “color, size and flight path as described by (the) observer leaves little doubt that (the) object was actually an aircraft.”
The report further stated that, “diffusion and refraction of such lights passing through the dense atmosphere close to the Earth’s surface accounts for observer’s generous estimates of size and color.”
The Air Intelligence Information Report is part of the Project Blue Book from the National Archives Archival Research Catalog that is searchable online at the Fold3 website, which provides access to US military records, including the stories, photos, and personal documents of the men and women who served.
The Project Blue Book includes US Air Force investigations into unidentified flying object sightings reported between June 1947 and December 1969.
A total of 40 documents surface when the search word Hawaiʻi is entered, with reports filed in Hilo, Honolulu, Kauaʻi, Hickam Air Force Base, Waikīkī Beach, ʻEwa Beach, Pearl Harbor, Haleʻiwa, Barbers Point, and Kunia.
The consequences of burning fossil fuels are already apparent. We have just begun to see the effects of human-induced climate change. (AlaskaStock / Corbis)
Science can be glorious; it can bring clarity to a chaotic world. But big scientific discoveries are by nature counterintuitive and sometimes shocking. Here are ten of the biggest threats to our peace of mind.
1. The Earth is not the center of the universe.
We’ve had more than 400 years to get used to the idea, but it’s still a little unsettling. Anyone can plainly see that the Sun and stars rise in the east, sweep across the sky and set in the west; the Earth feels stable and stationary. When Copernicus proposed that the Earth and other planets instead orbit the Sun,
… his contemporaries found his massive logical leap “patently absurd,” says Owen Gingerich of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. “It would take several generations to sink in. Very few scholars saw it as a real description of the universe.”
Galileo got more grief for the idea than Copernicus did. He used a telescope to provide evidence for the heliocentric theory, and some of his contemporaries were so disturbed by what the new invention revealed—craters on a supposedly perfectly spherical moon, other moons circling Jupiter—that they refused to look through the device. More dangerous than defying common sense, though, was Galileo’s defiance of the Catholic Church. Scripture said that the Sun revolved around the Earth, and the Holy Office of the Inquisition found Galileo guilty of heresy for saying otherwise.
2. The microbes are gaining on us.
Antibiotics and vaccines have saved millions of lives; without these wonders of modern medicine, many of us would have died in childhood of polio, mumps or smallpox. But some microbes are evolving faster than we can find ways to fight them.
The influenza virus mutates so quickly that last year’s vaccination is usually ineffective against this year’s bug. Hospitals are infested with antibiotic-resistant Staphylococcus bacteria that can turn a small cut into a limb- or life-threatening infection. And new diseases keep jumping from animals to humans—ebola from apes, SARS from masked palm civets, hantavirus from rodents, bird flu from birds, swine flu from swine. Even tuberculosis, the disease that killed Frederic Chopin and Henry David Thoreau, is making a comeback, in part because some strains of the bacterium have developed multi-drug resistance. Even in the 21st century, it’s quite possible to die of consumption.
3. There have been mass extinctions in the past, and we’re probably in one now.
Paleontologists have identified five points in Earth’s history when, for whatever reason (asteroid impact, volcanic eruptions and atmospheric changes are the main suspects), mass extinctions eliminated many or most species.
The concept of extinction took a while to sink in. Thomas Jefferson saw mastodon bones from Kentucky, for example, and concluded that the giant animals must still be living somewhere in the interior of the continent. He asked Lewis and Clark to keep an eye out for them.
Today, according to many biologists, we’re in the midst of a sixth great extinction. Mastodons may have been some of the earliest victims. As humans moved from continent to continent, large animals that had thrived for millions of years began to disappear—mastodons in North America, giant kangaroos in Australia, dwarf elephants in Europe. Whatever the cause of this early wave of extinctions, humans are driving modern extinctions by hunting, destroying habitat, introducing invasive species and inadvertently spreading diseases.
4. Things that taste good are bad for you.
In 1948, the Framingham Heart Study enrolled more than 5,000 residents of Framingham, Massachusetts, to participate in a long-term study of risk factors for heart disease. (Very long term—the study is now enrolling the grandchildren of the original volunteers.) It and subsequent ambitious and painstaking epidemiological studies have shown that one’s risk of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, certain kinds of cancer and other health problems increases in a dose-dependent manner upon exposure to delicious food. Steak, salty French fries, eggs Benedict, triple-fudge brownies with whipped cream—turns out they’re killers. Sure, some tasty things are healthy—blueberries, snow peas, nuts and maybe even (oh, please) red wine. But on balance, human taste preferences evolved during times of scarcity, when it made sense for our hunter-gatherer ancestors to gorge on as much salt and fat and sugar as possible. In the age of Hostess pies and sedentary lifestyles, those cravings aren’t so adaptive.
5. E=mc²
Einstein’s famous equation is certainly one of the most brilliant and beautiful scientific discoveries—but it’s also one of the most disturbing. The power explained by the equation really rests in the c², or the speed of light (186,282 miles per second) times itself, which equals 34,700,983,524. When that’s your multiplier, you don’t need much mass—a smidgen of plutonium is plenty—to create enough energy to destroy a city.
6. Your mind is not your own.
Freud might have been wrong in the details, but one of his main ideas—that a lot of our behaviors and beliefs and emotions are driven by factors we are unaware of—turns out to be correct. If you’re in a happy, optimistic, ambitious mood, check the weather. Sunny days make people happier and more helpful. In a taste test, you’re likely to have a strong preference for the first sample you taste—even if all of the samples are identical. The more often you see a person or an object, the more you’ll like it. Mating decisions are based partly on smell. Our cognitive failings are legion: we take a few anecdotes and make incorrect generalizations, we misinterpret information to support our preconceptions, and we’re easily distracted or swayed by irrelevant details. And what we think of as memories are merely stories we tell ourselves anew each time we recall an event. That’s true even for flashbulb memories, the ones that feel as though they’ve been burned into the brain:
Like millions of people, [neuroscientist Karim] Nader has vivid and emotional memories of the September 11, 2001, attacks and their aftermath. But as an expert on memory, and, in particular, on the malleability of memory, he knows better than to fully trust his recollections… As clear and detailed as these memories feel, psychologists find they are surprisingly inaccurate.
7. We’re all apes.
It’s kind of deflating, isn’t it? Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection can be inspiring: perhaps you’re awed by the vastness of geologic time or marvel at the variety of Earth’s creatures. The ability to appreciate and understand nature is just the sort of thing that is supposed to make us special, but instead it allowed us to realize that we’re merely a recent variation on the primate body plan. We may have a greater capacity for abstract thought than chimps do, but we’re weaker than gorillas, less agile in the treetops than orangutans and more ill-tempered than bonobos.
Charles Darwin started life as a creationist and only gradually came to realize the significance of the variation he observed in his travels aboard the Beagle. For the past 151 years, since On the Origin of Species was published, people have been arguing over evolution. Our ape ancestry conflicts with every culture’s creation myth and isn’t particularly intuitive, but everything we’ve learned since then—in biology, geology, genetics, paleontology, even chemistry and physics—supports his great insight.
8. Cultures throughout history and around the world have engaged in ritual human sacrifice.
Say you’re about to die and are packing some supplies for the afterlife. What to take? A couple of coins for the ferryman? Some flowers, maybe, or mementos of your loved ones? If you were an ancient Egyptian pharaoh, you’d have your servants slaughtered and buried adjacent to your tomb. Concubines were sacrificed in China to be eternal companions; certain Indian sects required human sacrifices. The Aztecs slaughtered tens of thousands of people to inaugurate the Great Pyramid of Tenochtitlan; after sacred Mayan ballgames, the losing team was sometimes sacrificed.
It’s hard to tell fact from fiction when it comes to this particularly gruesome custom. Ritual sacrifice is described in the Bible, Greek mythology and the Norse sagas, and the Romans accused many of the people they conquered of engaging in ritual sacrifice, but the evidence was thin. A recent accumulation of archaeological findings from around the world shows that it was surprisingly common for people to ritually kill—and sometimes eat—other people.
9. We’ve already changed the climate for the rest of this century.
The mechanics of climate change aren’t that complex: we burn fossil fuels; a byproduct of that burning is carbon dioxide; it enters the atmosphere and traps heat, warming the surface of the planet. The consequences are already apparent: glaciers are melting faster than ever, flowers are blooming earlier (just ask Henry David Thoreau), and plants and animals are moving to more extreme latitudes and altitudes to keep cool.
Even more disturbing is the fact that carbon dioxide lingers in the atmosphere for hundreds of years. We have just begun to see the effects of human-induced climate change, and the predictions for what’s to come range from dire to catastrophic.
10. The universe is made of stuff we can barely begin to imagine.
Everything you probably think of when you think of the universe—planets, stars, galaxies, black holes, dust—makes up just 4 percent of whatever is out there. The rest comes in two flavors of “dark,” or unknown stuff: dark matter, at 23 percent of the universe, and dark energy, at a whopping 73 percent:
Scientists have some ideas about what dark matter might be—exotic and still hypothetical particles—but they have hardly a clue about dark energy. … University of Chicago cosmologist Michael S. Turner ranks dark energy as “the most profound mystery in all of science.”
The effort to solve it has mobilized a generation of astronomers in a rethinking of physics and cosmology to rival and perhaps surpass the revolution Galileo inaugurated on an autumn evening in Padua. … [Dark energy] has inspired us to ask, as if for the first time: What is this cosmos we call home?
But astronomers do know that, thanks to these dark parts, the universe is expanding. And not only expanding, but expanding faster and faster. Ultimately, everything in theuniverse will drift farther and farther apart until the universe is uniformly cold and desolate. The world will end in a whimper.
Vancouver, BC – An exclusive video posted to YouTube revealed evidence for communications bridging the gap between human consciousness and other cosmic intelligences. A series of displays from mysterious sky objects recorded in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, demonstrated how these entities appeared to possess an uncanny knack for showing up in the right place at the right time whenever the cameras were rolling. Captured over a five-year period, the luminous interactive displays were recorded using two different optical systems, including a professional series digital broadcast camera featuring a redundant triple-sensor array.
Click here to watch “A Pattern of UFO Communications” on YouTube, featuring highlights from five years of local skywatching and contact documentation: “A pattern of UFO communications is evident in the skies over Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Bidirectional signaling bridges earth and air to evoke signs of psychic contact taking place over a multi-year period. Two different electronic instruments register the same repeatable phenomena indicating open lines of communications from advanced intelligences cooperating in the development of human consciousness.”
According to the Encyclopaedia Britannica, semaphore is a method of visual communications employing lights or flags that in late 18th century France utilized telescopes to perform long distance sightings of signals between fixed transmission points. The evidence appears to show that semaphore, an established mode of terrestrial communications utilizing lights and telescopes and the recent Vancouver, British Columbia video utilizing lights and telephoto optics possess more than a few similar traits.
The signaling interactions revealed in the video also appeared to show UFOs offering receipt of transmission acknowledgements like those utilized in data communications networks. Furthermore, synchronization of signals was evident in these instances where a clearly defined order of events occurs after commencement of signal transmission from the ground. These synchronized sequential communications between UFOs and people on the ground appeared to provide local evidence of an emerging global trend. To further clarify, the ordering of these events was depicted on screen as:
1. Signal transmission 2. Receipt of transmission acknowledgement
Contemporary digital data communications between computers on the Internet utilize binary on/off encoding to transmit information in strings of ones and zeroes. A brief exposition on the evolution of binary encoding in human history cites its appearance in the Sanskrit Vedas, the communications logic of German philosopher Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz and the Boolean logic of English mathematician George Boole.
Readers who wish to deepen their understanding of how seemingly meaningless on/off iterations can convey meaning between communicators may try using this free online translator to decode the following strings of numbers written in binary and paste their translations in the comments section below:
The highly publicized 1974 Arecibo message transmitted by professional scientists into space fabricated the popular illusion of mainstream science’s interest in communicating with extraterrestrials. 25 years later it was revealed by Cornell News how this event had less to do with any serious attempt at understanding the subtleties of human-ET communications, offering in their place only a crude unilateral exhibition of the transmission capabilities of that era. As far as communications were concerned, Arecibo was all about affectation in the absence of authenticity.
This reporter had previously concluded that possibly more valid instrumental evidence for ET contact was published to YouTube in 2012 than SETI has produced in the past 40 years, a scenario which apparently eluded teams of scientists struggling to appear relevant during an era of widely-accessible, affordable digital night vision. The suggestion that authentic human-ET communications were taking place outside of the sphere of common public knowledge during the time of Arecibo was highlighted in the 1977 film “Close Encounters of the Third Kind” wherein elite operatives of an international shadow governmental body are portrayed using sound and light signals to communicate with ET spacecraft.
In present day contact circles, the theme of elitist politics runs deep through the CSETI culture, whose skywatching protocols apparently require participants to voluntarily surrender their rights to free speech in a country where those rights are protected by constitutional law. A document hosted on the CSETI.org website titled “AGREEMENT FOR PARTICIPANTS IN CSETI’S AMBASSADORS TO THE UNIVERSE TRAINING RETREAT” states unambiguously how signatories “Agree to hold all proceedings of this CSETI Ambassadors to the Universe Training Retreat confidential and agree that it shall not be shared publicly without the prior express written consent of CSETI.”
Are such undemocratic and elitist practices providing a smokescreen of cover for professional misconduct and potentially criminal abuses? Some attendees at the reportedly disastrous 2013 Contact in the Desert UFO conference appeared to believe this to be the case.
The four incidents of clearly illustrated Vancouver UFO communications from the years 2009, 2013 and 2014 depicted in the video “A Pattern of UFO Communications” exceeded one Latin maxim’s consideration for the number three. Presidential Medal of Freedom recipient Norman Mineta had illustrated his own plan-detecting methodology by citing the rule of three on a number of occasions as expressed in the maxim “omne trium perfectum” (Latin: “Everything that comes in groups of three is complete”).
“When you see one of something happen, it’s an accident. When you see two of the same thing happening, it’s a trend. When you see three, it’s a plan,” said the former transportation secretary in an on-camera interview posted to YouTube. Click here to watch former United States Secretary of Transportation and Presidential Medal of Freedom recipient Norman Mineta explain how the rule of three guided his analytic perspective on questions related to national air transportation safety.
MR. MINETA: Absolutely. And in terms of what motivated me to bring all the aircraft down, as you see one thing happen, that’s an accident. When you see two of the same thing occur, it’s a pattern. But when you see three of the same thing occur, it’s a program. And so at that point I decided to bring all the aircraft down.
During an interview with UC Berkley’s Daily Californian newspaper, the former transportation secretary observed how “If you see one of something occur you consider that an accident. But when you see two of the same thing occur then you know that there is a pattern or a trend. In this instant we had three of the same thing occur, and that is a program or a plan. So I then informed the FAA to bring all the airplanes down.”
By such a Mineta standard reiterated below it can be understood that multiple incidents of UFO communications in Vancouver are no accident and not simply a pattern but are in fact indicative of planned communications leading to the unfoldment of human consciousness and the integration of modern civilization with a larger cosmic society. “Well, when that third one went into the Pentagon, it’s like anything else. If you see one of something it’s an accident. When you see two of the same thing, it’s a pattern or a trend. But when you three — see three of the same thing occurring, then you know it’s a program or a plan.”

The Artificial Womb Is Born: Welcome To The WORLD Of The MATRIX
The Artificial Womb Is Born: Welcome To The WORLD Of The MATRIX
February 14, 2015 - The artificial womb exists. In Tokyo, researchers have developed a technique called EUFI — extrauterine fetal incubation. They have taken goat fetuses, threaded catheters through the large vessels in the umbilical cord and supplied the fetuses with oxygenated blood while suspending them in incubators that contain artificial amniotic fluid heated to body temperature.
For a moment, as you contemplate those fetal goats, it may seem a short hop to the Central Hatchery of Aldous Huxley’s imagination. In fact, in recent decades, as medicine has focused on the beginning and end stages of pregnancy, the essential time inside the woman’s body has been reduced. We are, however, still a long way from connecting those two points, from creating a completely artificial gestation. But we are at a moment when the fetus, during its obligatory time in the womb, is no longer inaccessible, no longer locked away from medical interventions.
The future of human reproductive medicine lies along the speeding trajectories of several different technologies. There is neonatology, accomplishing its miracles at the too-abrupt end of gestation. There is fetal surgery, intervening dramatically during pregnancy to avert the anomalies that kill and cripple newborns. There is the technology of assisted reproduction, the in-vitro fertilization and gamete retrieval-and-transfer fireworks of the last 20 years. And then, inevitably, there is genetics. All these technologies are essentially new, and with them come ethical questions so potent that the very inventors of these miracles seem half-afraid of where we may be heading. Between Womb and Air
Modern neonatology is a relatively short story: a few decades of phenomenal advances and doctors who resuscitate infants born 16 or 17 weeks early, babies weighing less than a pound. These very low-birthweight babies have a survival rate of about 10 percent. Experienced neonatologists are extremely hesitant about pushing the boundaries back any further; much research is aimed now at reducing the severe morbidity of these extreme preemies who do survive.
''Liquid preserves the lung structure and function,'' says Thomas Shaffer, professor of physiology and pediatrics at the School of Medicine at Temple University. He has been working on liquid ventilation for almost 30 years. Back in the late 1960's, he looked for a way to use liquid ventilation to prevent decompression sickness in deep-sea divers. His technology was featured in the book ''The Abyss,'' and for the movie of that name, Hollywood built models of the devices Shaffer had envisioned. As a postdoctoral student in physiology, he began working with premature infants. Throughout gestation, the lungs are filled with the appropriately named fetal lung fluid. Perhaps, he thought, ventilating these babies with a liquid that held a lot of oxygen would offer a gentler, safer way to take these immature lungs over the threshold toward the necessary goal of breathing air. Barotrauma, which is damage done to the lungs by the forced air banging out of the ventilator, would thus be reduced or eliminated.
Today, in Shaffer's somewhat labyrinthine laboratories in Philadelphia, you can come across a ventilator with pressure settings that seem astoundingly low; this machine is set at pressures that could never force air into stiff newborn lungs. And then there is the long bubbling cylinder where a special fluorocarbon liquid can be passed through oxygen, picking up and absorbing quantities of oxygen molecules. This machine fills the lungs with fluid that flows into the tiny passageways and air sacs of a premature human lung.
Shaffer remembers, not long ago, when many people thought the whole idea was crazy, when his was the only team working on filling human lungs with liquid. Now, liquid ventilation is cited by many neonatologists as the next large step in treating premature infants. In 1989, the first human studies were done, offering liquid ventilation to infants who were not thought to have any chance of survival through conventional therapy. The results were promising, and bigger trials are now under way. A pharmaceutical company has developed a fluorocarbon liquid that has the capacity to carry a great deal of dissolved oxygen and carbon dioxide -- every 100 milliliters holds 50 milliliters of oxygen. By putting liquid into the lung, Shaffer and his colleagues argue, the lung sacs can be expanded at a much lower pressure.
''I wouldn't want to push back the gestational age limit,'' Shaffer says. ''I want to eliminate the damage.'' He says he believes that this technology may become the standard. By the year 2000, these techniques may be available in large centers. Pressed to speculate about the more distant future, he imagines a premature baby in a liquid-dwelling and a liquid-breathing intermediate stage between womb and air: Immersed in fluid that would eliminate insensible water loss you would need a sophisticated temperature-control unit, a ventilator to take care of the respiratory exchange part, better thermal control and skin care.
The Fetus as Patient
The notion that you could perform surgery on a fetus was pioneered by Michael Harrison at the University of California in San Francisco. Guided by an improved ultrasound technology, it was he who reported, in 1981, that surgical intervention to relieve a urinary tract obstruction in a fetus was possible.
''I was frustrated taking care of newborns,'' says N. Scott Adzick, who trained with Harrison and is surgeon in chief at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.
When children are born with malformations, damage is often done to the organ systems before birth; obstructive valves in the urinary system cause fluid to back up and destroy the kidneys, or an opening in the diaphragm allows loops of intestine to move up into the chest and crowd out the lungs. ''It's like a lot of things in medicine,'' Adzick says, ''if you'd only gotten there earlier on, you could have prevented the damage. I felt it might make sense to treat certain life-threatening malformations before birth.''
Adzick and his team see themselves as having two patients, the mother and the fetus. They are fully aware that once the fetus has attained the status of a patient, all kinds of complex dilemmas result. Their job, says Lori Howell, coordinator of Children's Hospital's Center for Fetal Diagnosis and Treatment, is to help families make choices in difficult situations. Terminate a pregnancy, sometimes very late? Continue a pregnancy, knowing the fetus will almost certainly die? Continue a pregnancy, expecting a baby who will be born needing very major surgery? Or risk fixing the problem in utero and allow time for normal growth and development?
The first fetal surgery at Children's Hospital took place seven months ago. Felicia Rodriguez, from West Palm Beach, Fla., was 22 weeks pregnant. Through ultrasound, her fetus had been diagnosed as having a congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation a mass growing in the chest, which would compress the fetal heart, backing up the circulation, killing the fetus and possibly putting the mother into congestive heart failure.
When the fetal circulation started to back up, Rodriguez flew to Philadelphia. The surgeons made a Caesarean-type incision. They performed a hysterotomy by opening the uterus quickly and bloodlessly, and then opened the amniotic sac and brought out the fetus's arm, exposing the relevant part of the chest. The mass was removed, the fetal chest was closed, the amniotic membranes sealed with absorbable staples and glue, the uterus was closed and the abdomen was sutured. And the pregnancy continued -- with special monitoring and continued use of drugs to prevent premature labor. The uterus, no longer anesthetized, is prone to contractions. Rodriguez gave birth at 35 weeks' gestation, 13 weeks after surgery, only 5 weeks before her due date. During those 13 weeks, the fetal heart pumped normally with no fluid backup, and the fetal lung tissue developed properly. Roberto Rodriguez 3d was born this May, a healthy baby born to a healthy mother.
This is a new and remarkable technology. Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and the University of California at San Francisco are the only centers that do these operations, and fewer than a hundred have been done. The research fellows, residents working in these labs and training as the next generation of fetal surgeons, convey their enthusiasm for their field and their mentors in everything they say. When you sit with them, it is impossible not to be dazzled by the idea of what they can already do and by what they will be able to do. ''When I dare to dream,'' says Theresa Quinn, a fellow at Children's Hospital, ''I think of intervening before the immune system has time to mature, allowing for advances that could be used in organ transplantation to replacement of genetic deficiencies.'' But What Do We Want?
Eighteen years ago, in-vitro fertilization was tabloid news: test-tube babies! Now IVF is a standard therapy, an insurance wrangle, another medical term instantly understood by most lay people. Enormous advertisements in daily newspapers offer IVF, egg-donation programs, even the newer technique of ICSI intracytoplasmic sperm injection as consumer alternatives. It used to be, for women at least, that genetic and gestational motherhood were one and the same. It is now possible to have your own fertilized egg carried by a surrogate or, much more commonly, to go through a pregnancy carrying an embryo formed from someone else's egg.
Given the strong desire to be pregnant, which drives many women to request donor eggs and go through biological motherhood without a genetic connection to the fetus, is it really very likely that any significant proportion of women would take advantage of an artificial womb? Could we ever reach a point where the desire to carry your own fetus in your own womb will seem a willful rejection of modern health and hygiene, an affected earth-motherism that flies in the face of common sense -- the way I feel about mothers in Cambridge who ostentatiously breast-feed their children until they are 4 years old?
I would argue that God in her wisdom created pregnancy so Moms and babies could develop a relationship before birth, says Alan Fleischman, professor of pediatrics at Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York, who directed the neonatal program at Montefiore Medical Center for 20 years.
Mary Mahowald, a professor at the MacLean Center for Clinical Medical Ethics at the University of Chicago, and one of her medical students surveyed women about whether they would rather be related to a child gestationally or genetically, if they couldn't choose both. A slight majority opted for the gestational relationship, caring more about carrying the pregnancy, giving birth and nursing than about the genetic tie. ''Pregnancy is important to women,'' Mahowald says. ''Some women might prefer to be done with all this -- we hire our surrogates, we hire our maids, we hire our nannies -- but I think these things are going to have very limited interest.''
Susan Cooper, a psychologist who counsels people going through infertility workups, isn't so sure. Yes, she agrees, many of the patients she sees have ''an intense desire to be pregnant but it's hard to know whether that's a biological urge or a cultural urge.''
And Arthur L. Caplan, director of the Center for Bioethics at the University of Pennsylvania, takes it a step further. Thirty years from now, he speculates, we will have solved the problem of lung development; neonatology will be capable of saving 15- and 16-week-old fetuses. There will be many genetic tests available, easy to do, predicting the risks of acquiring late-onset diseases, but also predicting aptitudes, behavior traits and aspects of personality. There won't be an artificial womb available, but there will be lots of prototypes, and women who can't carry a pregnancy will sign up to use the prototypes in experimental protocols. Caplan also predicts that ''there will be a movement afoot which says all this is unnecessary and unnatural, and that the way to have babies is sex and the random lottery of nature a movement with the appeal of the environmental movement today.'' Sixty years down the line, he adds, the total artificial womb will be here. ''It's technologically inevitable. Demand is hard to predict, but I'll say significant.''
It all used to happen in the dark -- if it happened at all. It occurred well beyond our seeing or our intervening, in the wet, lightless spaces of the female body. So what changes when something as fundamental as human reproduction comes out of the closet, so to speak? Are we, in fact, different if we take hands-on control over this most basic aspect of our biology? Should we change our genetic trajectory and thus our evolutionary path? Eliminate defects or eliminate differences or are they one and the same? Save every fetus, make every baby a wanted baby, help every wanted child to be born healthy -- are these the same? What are our goals as a society, what are our goals as a medical profession, what are our goals as individual parents -- and where do these goals diverge?
''The future is rosy for bioethicists,'' Caplan says. Perri Klass's most recent book is ''Baby Doctor.'' She is a pediatrician at Boston Medical Center.

Extraterrestrials: Are They Generally Good (Benevolent) Or Bad (Malevolent)?
Extraterrestrials: Are They Generally Good (Benevolent) Or Bad (Malevolent)?
February 15, 2015- In general, do you believe most extraterrestrials have good or bad intentions? In this article, we will look at both sides of the coin in order to help make that determination.
It seems there are more UFO sighting now than ever before. As the rise of cell phones with video applications has improved significantly in recent years, the cost of HD camcorders has also dropped in unison allowing people to capture videos that were not previously as easy to record.
In a parallel with video technology is the ability to create computer generated images (CGI) videos which look amazingly realistic to the untrained eye, further muddling the validity of actual UFO sightings versus computer generated ones.
There are two diverse trains of thoughts in regard to whether extraterrestrials are benevolent or not and they boil down to several basic tenets.
The common benevolent argument states that if the ET’s were malevolent, then surely, they would have taken over the planet by now.
As evidenced throughout art history, UFO’s and extraterrestrials have been documented for thousands of years, with some of the oldest recordings going back to more than 25,000 years ago. While stories of abductions are few and far between, most visitations seem to be either for observation purposes or for protection purposes.
A malevolent argument is that the planet has been under ET control for a long time through the Anunnaki who manipulated our genes to produce a slave race in order to mine gold for them.
You see commercials on TV and people in every city holding signs saying, “Cash for Gold” or “We Buy Gold”. Are these people pimps for the Anunnaki? Why, all of the sudden, is there such a big push to trade in your gold for pieces of paper that are backed by nothing?
Cash for Gold – You, too, can eliminate clutter by trading your old, dirty gold for this pile of worthless paper!
Where’s the proof?
We have heard all about the benevolent races such as the Pleiadians as well as the malevolent races such as the Grays and Reptilians, but what validity stands behind the determination of the intent of these races?
Are ALL Reptilians bad?
Are ALL Pleiadians good?
If the Earth is a reflection of the cosmos, then one must ask, “Are ALL humans bad?” and “AreALL humans good?” If, “As above, so below” is true, then it logic would dictate the answer.
The Maya were visited by Quetzalcoatl who was a Caucasian man with blue eyes. Quetzalcoatl taught them about agriculture, medicine, mathematics and astronomy. The Maya were the first civilization to use the number “0”. Accordingly, one of the stars in the Pleiades is called, “Maia”.
The Mayan Long Count calendar tracks the 26,000 year precession of the equinoxes. It is also one of the most accurate calendars known to man and to this day, can predict every lunar eclipse within 30 seconds.
Upon researching the Maya, it becomes blatantly obvious that they were helped by a benevolent ET. By the general description of Quetzalcoatl, we could deduce that he was Pleiadian, not only by his physical features but from the origin of the “Maya/Maia” name. While the origin of Quetzalcoatl is all speculative, it remains documented proof of an advanced being visiting the Americas to share this knowledge with the Maya.
Through regression hypnosis, we have also heard stories about abductions involving various probes,, egg cultivating, sperm seeding and implants. The typical type of extraterrestrial involved is often described as a Gray with features in sharp contrast to Quetzalcoatl, such as being small in stature, gray colored skin and featuring enormous black eyes along with a large cranium.
While the answer to the question of “Have we been visited by extraterrestrials” can be easily answered, the intent of why they are visiting us remains an enigma.
While official disclosure would be nice, it is not necessary because many people already accept the possibility that we are not alone in this galaxy or universe.
The release of suppressed technology from reversed engineering would be of greater interest than the actual disclosure of UFOs, but as we know, those in power want to keep us subservient to them by all means possible, which includes the suppression of technology that would benefit the human race. Look no further than to JP Morgan suppressing Nicola Tesla’s free energy system or how Stanley Meyer was murdered after inventing a car that could run on any type of water.
JP Morgan believed that “He who controls the energy, controls the power.” The answer is simple: People need to Open Source inventions that can benefit humanity. By doing so, there is no patent and the idea can be embellished by others to improve the quality of the idea or product.
Perhaps our extraterrestrial friends are waiting for us to do this?
In general, most people are good at heart. We have been manipulated and deceived through subservience, control and conformity for thousands of years, yet we remain resilient as a race in overcoming negativity while maintaining our core values of love and compassion for one another.
If, “As above, so below” is true, then the same would logic would follow suit. In general, most extraterrestrials are likely to be benevolent, while there remain those who do not have our best interests in mind.
The bottom line is discernment. It doesn’t matter what you read or watch on video. Listen to yourself. How do YOU feel, regardless of what others might think?
My discernment tells me that we are being watched over and protected by many benevolent races as we are about to be welcomed as galactic neighbors to these races.
I came across an interesting video series which delves into the malevolent side of extraterrestrials, along with an accompanying article by Bernhard Guenther:
UFOs, Aliens, and the Question of Contact
UFOs, Aliens, and the Question of Contact explores the secrecy surrounding the greatest cover-up of all time, presenting an overview of the UFO phenomenon, aliens, abductions, disclosure, and hyperdimensional realities.
When it comes to well documented UFO cases, especially involving Government and Military documents , there is one book to point out and that is Richard Dolan’s “UFO’s and the National Security State – The Chronology of a Cover-up”. Dolan has an academic background with the much-needed critical but open mind when researching such matters. He holds an MA in History from the University of Rochester and a BA in History from Alfred University. Prior to his interest in anomalous phenomena, Dolan studied US Cold War strategy, Soviet history, and international diplomacy.
“UFOs and the National Security State” is the first volume of a three-part historical narrative of the national security dimensions of the UFO phenomenon from 1941 to the present. Included are the records of more than fifty military bases relating to violations of sensitive airspace by unknown objects, demonstrating that the US military has taken the topic of UFOs seriously indeed. Apollo 14 astronaut Dr. Edgar Mitchell called Dolan’s book “monumental,” while Dr. Hal Puthoff, Director of the Institute for Advanced Studies at Austin, declared it to be “a must-read for serious students in the field.”
Some believe that UFO’s are just developed Nazi technology or secret military projects but have nothing “ET” like to them, others explain UFO’s with Jungian psychology as a projection of our collective. For anyone who doubts that the UFO phenomena is real needs to read this book. It is well documented and clearly shows that government and military are very aware of the UFO issue and also that they do not have a handle on it.
“There is more than enough documentation to establish military interest in UFO’s. Attempted interceptions and military close encounters are a constant feature[…]The president/government doesn’t really know much at all and is not really in charge to begin with. The [privatized] military industrial complex and private transnational corporations seem to be involved with alien technology, UFO-crash retrievals, back-engineering and possible study of alien bodies, closed off from any government or official overview.” – Richard Dolan, (from his Keynote presentation at the UFO Conference, Laughlin, Nevada 2008)
Dolan also examines the rising of a National Security State (Military Industrial Complex), independent of official government supervision, as well as the issue of Disinformation and Counter Intelligence Programs (COINTELPRO), designed to deliberately spread false Information in order to keep the public away from the truth. I recommend reading the intro here. Compartmentalization is the name of the game, on a “need to know” basis. That’s how secrecy works. The well documented evidence for his claims can be found in his books. A good insight into his work is also this lecture he gave in September 2009 (see video below).
Many people who have looked into the topic of UFO’s a bit have come across the Disclosure Project, an organization under the guidance of Steven Greer, which also reveals the Government/Military Involvement in the UFO field.
At first the Disclosure Project seems to be a very good source and has a somewhat more serious image than your average UFO site. Greer and his project is quite popular these days, especially in the New Age Movement. UFO enthusiasts seem to take Greer’s work as a credible, reliable source and are happy to hear that our benevolent “space brothers” are here, possibly providing us with technology like Zero Point Energy, which the secret government is hiding from us. According to Greer, we’re also “threatening” the aliens and a possible contact scenario because of our space weapon program.
While there is some valid information presented by Greer with a very ideal objective of bringing about Disclosure of the UFO phenomena through Congress, there also seems to be Disinformation, in particular in regards to the intention of the “visitors”. Greer claims that there is no evidence of any hostile behavior on part of the ET’s. Well, I wouldn’t be so sure about that. UFO researcher Guy Malone writes about Steven Greer and the Disclosure Project (see video below).
There are certain problems with the lesser-known but equally sought after goals of the Disclosure Project, which hide (in plain sight) behind the noble “topline” pursuit of Disclosure, which should raise concerns. Namely, the seeming religious zeal with which Dr. Greer promotes the “Intergalactic Community” we are supposedly being invited to join and also, the call for a disarmament of humanity’s weaponry before we enter space (or in the words of the Disclosure Project homepage “To enact legislation which will ban all space-based weapons.”)Whether knowingly (as either a disinformation agent, or as a closet cult-leader) or unknowingly, by attaching these very distinct and separate issues to the noble goals of the Disclosure Project, Dr. Greer is unfortunately playing all of us right into the hands of the very Shadow Government he warns of.
These other non-essential (to Disclosure) pursuits are built upon a single faulty premise – that UFOs are not ever harmful. It is simply unreasonable to believe that, as a noted ufologist, Dr. Greer has never heard of these or similar reports [showing a non-benevolent nature of UFO/ET interaction]. However, too much of the UFO community simply ignores all such reports in favor of either an undeserved loyalty to the ufonauts, or a hidden agenda – political, spiritual and/or financial. Promotion of UFO beings as benevolent and the ideal of a peaceful “Intergalactic Community” is the hallmark only of uninformed researchers, well-informed disinformation agents, New Age acolytes and UFO cult leaders.
Intelligent people however cannot allow a starry-eyed view of the reality of UFOs to cause us to roll over and merely assume they ALL are – or always will be – friendly and beneficial to humanity. All we really know so far from Dr. Greer and others’ efforts is that these entities exist, and that they seem to offer us shiny cool stuff in exchange for just a little territory. However, our own checkered human history of initial European relations with Native American Indians should be enough to teach us the folly of repeating this path (i.e., “Today’s Manhattan Island is tomorrow’s Manhattan Project!”)
Kerry Cassidy and Bill Ryan of Project Camelot challenge Steven Greer about these issues and more in this interview (see video below).
If the government doesn’t really know much and has no handle on it, as Richard Dolan has shown in his research, then that puts into question the “disclosure” through government as promoted by Greer.
One has to ask, WHO is going to disclose WHAT?
Are we really so naive to believe that the government would just come out and tell us the truth, even if they knew what was going on? Sincere researchers in the UFO field are starting to look through Greer’s agenda more and more as his claims do not hold up to the data uncovered. He seems to be doing more harm than any good to the UFO field with his “crusade” of disclosure. And maybe that is his true intention after all, to distract and misinform. Could Greer be a Disinformation Agent in classic Counter Intelligence Program fashion ( COINTELPRO )?
Laura Knight-Jadczyk writes about Greer in her book “The Secret History of the World and How to Get Out Alive “:
“In the present day, we have Steven Greer’s “Disclosure Project.” Based on the mail I get, it seems that many in the New Age/UFO community think that this is a great and novel idea. However, history shows that it has been tried before. The one thing about Greer’s effort that suggests it is just more and better COINTELPRO is his attachment to the “aliens are here to help us” idea which is directly contradicted by history[…]“
In regards to Secrecy of the UFO Issue, referring to Dolan’s research, she writes:
“This brings us back to the problem of the Secret State and its agenda. Some people believe that this secrecy is absolutely essential. They say that the public simply could not handle the truth about aliens. They say that there is no reason to spoil people’s lives with the truth because there is nothing that the average person could do about it anyway. Is that really true? Would there be so much effort to conceal the alien agenda if disclosure of the truth wasn’t harmful to that agenda?
Dolan’s chronological history of the actual interaction between UFOs and the public and the corresponding behavior of the military, the intelligence community, the media, the scientific community in its interaction with the public, make this abundantly clear.
“It seems obvious from the documentary evidence as well as the behavior of the military in response to UFOs and the “alien matter,” that the aliens do have an agenda, and that – at some level in the layers of secrecy – there are those who know – at least on a “need to know” basis – what that agenda is. It seems abundantly evident that the secrecy has been enjoined on this group by the aliens themselves. What is more, a careful assessment of the evidence does not suggest a benevolent agenda.”
Scientists at a US conference have said it is time to try actively to contact intelligent life on other worlds.
Researchers involved in the search for extra-terrestrial life are considering what the message from Earth should be.
The call was made by the Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence institute at a meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in San Jose.
But others argued that making our presence known might be dangerous.
Researchers at the Seti institute have been listening for signals from outer space for more than 30 years using radio telescope facilities in the US. So far there has been no sign of ET.
The organisation's director, Dr Seth Shostak, told attendees to the AAAS meeting that it was now time to step up the search.
"Some of us at the institute are interested in 'active Seti', not just listening but broadcasting something to some nearby stars because maybe there is some chance that if you wake somebody up you'll get a response," he told BBC News.
The concerns are obvious, but sitting in his office at the institute in Mountain View, California, in the heart of Silicon Valley, he expresses them with characteristic, impish glee.
Game over?
Any society that could come here and ruin our whole day by incinerating the planet already knows we are here”
Dr Seth Shostak Seti Institute
"A lot of people are against active Seti because it is dangerous. It is like shouting in the jungle. You don't know what is out there; you better not do it. If you incite the aliens to obliterate the planet, you wouldn't want that on your tombstone, right?"
I couldn't argue with that. But initially, I could scarcely believe I was having this conversation at a serious research institute rather than at a science fiction convention. The sci-fi feel of our talk was underlined by the toy figures of bug-eyed aliens that cheerfully decorate the office.
But Dr Shostak is a credible and popular figure and has been invited to present his arguments.
Leading astronomers, anthropologists and social scientists will gather at his institute after the AAAS meeting for a symposium to flesh out plans for a proposal for active Seti to put to the public and politicians.
High on the agenda is whether such a move would, as he put it so starkly, lead to the "obliteration" of the planet.
"I don't see why the aliens would have any incentive to do that," Dr Shostak tells me.
"Beyond that, we have been telling them willy-nilly that we are here for 70 years now. They are not very interesting messages but the early TV broadcasts, the early radio, the radar from the Second World War - all that has leaked off the Earth.
"Any society that could come here and ruin our whole day by incinerating the planet already knows we are here."
Clash of cultures
His argument isn't entirely reassuring. But neither is the one made by David Brin, a science fiction writer invited to speak at the AAAS meeting, who opposes the plan.
"Historians will tell you that first contact between industrial civilisations and indigenous people does not go well," he told me.
Mr Brin believes that those in favour of active Seti have been "railroading the public into sending a message without a wide and detailed discussion of what the cultural impact might be".
He does not fear a Hollywood-style alien invasion and thinks the likelihood of making contact is extremely low. But the risks, he argues, are extremely high and so merit careful consideration before anyone sends out a signal to potentially habitable worlds.
"The arrogance of shouting into the cosmos without any proper risk assessment defies belief. It is a course that would put our grandchildren at risk," he said.
Also on the agenda at the active Seti symposium is that if we are to send a message to ET - what should it be?
Some involved in the discussions believe we should send a sanitised account of ourselves, leaving out parts of our history we aren't proud of and putting a positive spin on our achievements - as if our species were attending a job interview or first date. Dr Shostak disagrees. He thinks the only way to win over the aliens is to be ourselves.
"My personal preference is to send the internet - send it all because if you send a lot of information then there's some chance that they'll work it out".

Current State of Affairs: Roswell Linked Kodak Slides
I enjoy a good story. I'll entertain most folklore and myth. There are many stories about UFOs, government conspiracies, and paranormal events, but before you buy into anything, ask yourself, "Did it really happen?"
I know, I'm back to the Kodak slides again, I'll flog myself later today, which according to some clinical studies show that after awhile I should start to like it. Since last week, numerous blogs and websites, mine included, have been a buzz with the unveiling of the alleged alien Kodak slides. Following the uncovering of numerous depictions of the slides, visual analysis and comparisons have cast serious doubt regarding the subject depicted and its surrounding environment. Some readers at Kevin Randle's and Rich Reynold's blog have now gone so far as to claim that the slides in question are either hoaxes or the representation of a severe form of congenital defect thus rendering the slide issue and the Roswell UFO claims/story as dead. Interestingly, some UFO/ET buffs have surfaced embracing the slides as the real deal with the skeptics doing a piss poor job of debunking the product. Frankly, I find it hard to believe that even the most die hardened slides proponent could muster any defense as to what is currently available for assessment. Based on what has been presented for our viewing curiosity, I have to agree that the photos are a lot less to be desired and causes me to question the previous spent time and effort that it took to investigate the accuracy and veracity of the photos by Dew, Schimtt and Carey. In other words, if this is an example of "scholarly" research then the current ongoing shit storm that is being heaped upon Dew, et al, is well deserved. Currently, a quiet study by some of my skeptic friends is ongoing. That is, quiet, without fanfare, analysis and comparisons is being looked into regarding what is currently available for study. My good friend, Gilles Fernandez, is looking into various photos depicting a mummified corpse with the tentative intent to draw correlations. He is getting a lot of flak, but it is an area of possibilities that must be looked at regardless of the opinions of his detractors. As far as whether the Dew, Carey and Schimtt team should continue to hand off this carnival barking show to Maussan for the Mexico City showing scheduled for May 5th, I leave you with my personal take as I commented on Paul Kimball's "The Other Side of Truth". Personally, I hope that Maussan fills all 10K of the seats. I want everyone to sit through hours worth of preliminary BS complete with all of the trappings Then when its time for the main attraction, I want to hear, in Spanish, English, broken English, the collective utterance..."what the hell?"
Sometimes people need to be fleeced and at the end of the day know that they've been fleeced, taken for a ride, no more than a collection of marks in a Roswell three card monty game.
That is the only way that they will learn or understand that however long this dog and pony show last, it's time wasted, time that can never be reclaimed.
Besides if the Roswell group wants to metaphorically cut their own throats, who are we to stand in their way. We must politely allow them to oblige themselves.:) Tim Hebert Meanwhile, the drama will continue...
Last year I tried to establish a blog tradition of starting the new year with a hopeful science news item, something that shows enormous technological potential to change the world for the better. But come New Years, it didn't work out, the Quantum Computing and D-Wave news was simply moving too fast, and I also didn't come across anything that felt significant enough.
Not any more. Recently a breakthrough discovery has been made that has the potential to rival the impact of the ammonium synthesis. When Fritz Haber discovered this process in the early 20th century, he single-handily vanquished famines from the developed world as subsequently fertilizer became an inexpensive commodity. This new discovery has the potential to do the same for thirst and droughts. It involves a surprising property of graphene and does justice to the hype that this miracle-material receives: Although graphene is usually hydrophobic it can be made to form capillaries that efficiently absorb water. Now researchers at the University of Manchester report having formed layers of graphene oxide that exploit this property to make efficient water filters on the molecular level.
These filters are reported to work astoundingly efficiently, keeping anything out above the size of nine Angstrom (9.0 × 10-10 m) at a speed comparable to an ordinary coffee filter. It is essentially sieving on the molecular level. This is not yet enough to remove ordinary sea salt, but the scientists, who just published their research in last week's issue of Science, are confident that the material can be scaled down to this level.
If so, it will change the world. Desalination of sea water is currently only affordable to the wealthiest countries, as the required investments are staggering, and operating the necessary infrastructure is very energy intensive. For instance, Saudi Arabia recently commissioned the world's largest desalination plant for US$ 1.46 billion. The scope of the project is impressive, yet this amount of money will still only suffice to supply one large city metropolis with enough water (~3.5M people).
According to a new report by the Worldwatch Institute, 1.2 billion people, or nearly a fifth of the world's population, live in areas of physical water scarcity, i.e. places where there is simply not enough water to meet demand. Another 1.6 billion face economic water scarcity, where people do not have the financial means to access existing water sources. If this research succeeds in creating a material that can simply filter out sea salt, and if its production can be scaled up, then this scourge on humankind could be rapidly diminished.

The Kelly-Hopkinsville 'Goblins' Encounter
The Kelly-Hopkinsville 'Goblins' Encounter
Date: August 21, 1955 Location: Kelly, Kentucky, United States
Billy Ray Taylor went out to fetch some water from the Sutton family well, when he saw a large shining object land in a gully about a city block away. A short time later, Carl "Lucky" Sutton and Billy Ray went out to investigate and saw a small 3-to-4 foot creature walking towards them with its hands up, as if surrendering. They later described the creature, one of several encountered that night, as having large eyes, a long thin mouth, large ears, thin short legs, and hands ending in claws.

Allan Hendry, CUFOS, in Ronald Story's "Encyclopedia of UFOs"
One of the best-known and best-documented Close Encounters of the Third Kind (CEIII) to come from the modern era of UFOlogy is that which allegedly took place on August 21-22, 1955, near Kelly, Kentucky. This case is distinguished by its duration and also by the number of witnesses involved.
The "Hopkinsville Case" took place seven miles to the north at a wide-spot-in-the-road called Kelly. Because of outlandish exaggeration and derisive treatment in the press, the story was generally disbelieved at the time, but careful investigation by responsible researchers has turned up no evidence of hoax or deceit on the part of the witnesses. R
Kentucky New Era, August 22, 1955 (credit: Ufologie.net)
Here is the original article from the "Kentucky New Ear" newspaper, the very next day to the event. Staff Writer Joe Dorris came on the scene the night of the incident with the police, or after the police, and the following morning and wrote this article, the first newspaper article about the case. R
With what happened to the Sutton family and their friend Billy Ray Taylor in the summer of 1955, the Sutton's and Taylor's worldview changed suddenly and forever when a craft full of bizarre-looking aliens plunged into their reality.
A brief overview of the Kelly-Hopkinsville case. "This matter is often regarded as a hoax, but many researchers are convinced there's something to it. Seven adults and three children witnessed these events, and all gave corroborating stories many times to many investigators." R
Jennifer Brown, Kentucky New Era (Hopkinsville, KY), August 13, 2005
If Lonnie Lankford had been a little older, his mother might not have pushed him under the bed that night she thought she saw an alien outside her bedroom window. R
Kelly is a small town, and Hopkinsville a small city, both located in rural Christian County in southwestern Kentucky. "Lucky" Sutton's family farm was located nearer to Kelly, but the nearest police were in Hopkinsville. Thus, this case acquired the name Kelly-Hopkinsville.
At around 7.00 P.M. on August 21, a visiting Pennsylvania man named Billy Ray Taylor went out to fetch some water from the Sutton family well. While he was at the well, he saw a large shining object land in a gully about a city block away. He went back inside and told the others, but they laughed and didn't believe him.
A short time later the family dog began barking wildly outside, so Carl "Lucky" Sutton and Billy Ray grabbed their guns and went out to investigate. They had walked a few yards from the front door when they saw a small 3-to-4 foot creature walking towards them with its hands up, as if surrendering. They later described the creature as having large eyes, a long thin mouth, large ears, thin short legs, and hands ending in claws.
In a rural area in the 1950s, folks were likely to shoot first and ask questions later if they felt threatened. Even though the creature seemed to be peaceful, Billy Ray fired a shot at it with his .22, and Lucky blasted away with his shotgun. They couldn't possibly have missed the creature at that range, but it just did a quick back flip and ran quickly into the woods, apparently unharmed.
Billy Ray and Lucky returned to the house, but before they could tell the others what had happened, the creature, or another one like it, appeared in front of a window. They shot at him through the screen, leaving a hole that investigators noticed later. When the men went outside to see if they had killed the creature, they found nothing. As they looked, one of the creatures, from the roof of the house, reached down to touch one of the men's hair. They shot at it, but it just floated to the ground and then ran off into the woods.
They went back inside and soon the house was under siege by a group of the creatures. The seven adults and four children in the house at the time were terrified as creature after creature appeared at windows around the house, seemingly taunting them. The men's guns were totally ineffective against the creatures.
After about three hours of this, the family decided to make a run for it. They piled into two vehicles and drove down to the local police station to report the event, arriving at about 11:00 P.M.. When police officers were finally persuaded to go to the farm and investigate, they could find no evidence of the strange events except for gunshot holes in the windows and walls.
According to reports, Sheriff Russell Greenwell was among the twenty-five or so law enforcement officers investigating the scene and the family who had told this wild tale. By all accounts, the witnesses were determined to be sane, not drinking, and in such a state of terror that no one who talked to them doubted that they had seen something unusual. Neighbors reported hearing the shooting, and one person had seen "lights in the sky" earlier that evening.
Shortly after the police left, at about 2:15 A.M., the creatures returned. As before, they began staring into windows, curious but not hostile. Again the men responded with gunfire, and again it had no effect. This ordeal continued until a half an hour before sunrise. On the morning of the 22nd, the police, along with the Air Force, investigated but again found nothing. Billy Ray and Lucky weren't there, having driven to Evansville, Indiana to take care of some sort of business. The Hopkinsville newspaper, The Kentucky New Era, carried the story on 8/22/55.
Many people believe this case to be a complete hoax. If it was then it has to be one of the biggest and most useless hoaxes in ufology to date. The family made no money from the incident and did not want any publicity at the time. They had to make extensive repairs to the house which cost them a considerable sum of money for that year. In the course of shooting at the creatures, Billy Ray and Lucky had shot up the house pretty well. All seven adults told the same story with no contradictory evidence in their statements. Sketches of the creatures based on descriptions from different witnesses matched closely. Their stories were unwavering a year later when a thorough investigation of the case was conducted by Isabel Davis.
No evidence of a hoax has ever been revealed in this case, and the Suttons still insisted that it was true years later. Now, over forty years later, it's likely that many, if not all, of the Suttons who were adults at the time have gone to their graves without changing their story.
Noted astronomer and UFOlogist J. Allen Hynek took the story seriously because he discussed the case with two of the principal investigators of the story: Bud Ledwith, an engineer at a radio station in Hopkinsville and a personal acquaintance of Hynek's, and Isabel Davis, an investigator from New York City.

Six spookiest UFO sightings and alien abductions ever reported in Scotland
Six spookiest UFO sightings and alien abductions ever reported in Scotland
This UFO spotted above Loch Lomond has re-ignited a long standing debate
Last week an incident above Loch Lomond was added to the long list of reported UFO sightings above Scotland.
The Loch Lomond sighting was slightly further north of the hotbed of Scottish UFO sightings said to take place in the ‘Falkirk Triangle’.
The Falkirk triangle stretches from Stirling to the outskirts of Edinburgh and is said to be home to around 300 sighting reports each year.
The centre of the Falkirk triangle is, of course, Bonnybridge. The small town, just outside of Falkirk, has had so many UFO sightings it is now officially twinned with the American city of Roswell in New Mexico, the site of the famous alleged saucer crash in 1947.
Bonnybridge
With literally thousands of sightings since the early 1990s, Bonnybridge is officially the home of UFOs in Scotland.
Over 600 sightings were made from 1992 to 1994 and as sightings continued thereafter, authorities wrote to Westminster pleading for help.
Cllr William Buchanan, wrote to both John Major and Tony Blair demanding “the truth”.
However, the MoD replied that it was “satisfied that there is no evidence that the United Kingdom’s airspace might have been compromised by hostile or unauthorised foreign military activity”.
Livingston
In November 1979 a man reported seeing a “flying dome” and being attacked by aliens, just outside Livingston.
Robert Taylor, a forestry worker for the Livingston Development Corporation, explained he was walking his dog along a forest path up the side of Dechmont Law when he saw what he described as a “flying dome” or a large, circular sphere approximately 20 feet (6.1 metres) in diameter, hovering above the forest floor in a clearing.
Taylor said the object was “a dark metallic material with a rough texture like sandpaper” featuring an outer rim “set with small propellers”.
Taylor says he could smell a foul smell “like burning brakes” and that smaller spheres “similar to sea mines” then dragged him towards the larger object before he lost consciousness.
When he awoke the objects were gone, he was battered and bruised, his trousers were ripped and he could not start his truck, so walked all the way home.
A plaque has now been erected on the site of the alleged encounter by UFO enthusiasts.
Muchalls
While Bonnybridge may be Scotland’s UFO capital, the Aberdeenshire village of Muchalls certainly runs it close.
UFO sightings in the village began in the early 1970s and were reportedly seen almost every night over a number of years.
There was two main witnesses and by the 1990s, with developments in technology, UFOs were filmed in the area.
Calvine
An artist’s impression of the UFO above Calvine after the original picture was taken
UFO investigator Nick Pope, insists “compelling” evidence of extraterrestrials in Scotland has been covered up. Pope formerly ran the Ministry of Defence’s project on the subject and, speaking to BBC Radio Scotland Show, Tales of the Unexplained, he said the best picture of a UFO he ever saw was that of a“diamond-shaped metallic craft” suspended in the sky over the village of Calvine in Perthshire.
The UFO was spotted by two men who reported seeing the 25 metre craft hover for 10 minutes before charging up into the heavens at great speed.
The two men took a picture of the craft, which appeared to show military planes in the background and seemed to be escorting “or even chasing” the UFO.
The picture was later sent to the Ministry of Defence where experts told Pope they believed the photo was genuine and Pope blew up the picture and pinned it to his wall.
However, the picture was taken down by Pope’s manager and was never seen again – it did not even appear years later when the MOD released ‘all’ their UFO files.
A70 abduction
Garry Wood was one of two men who claim they were abducted from the A70
One August night in 1992, Garry Woods and Colin Wright were driving down the A70 road outside Edinburgh, heading to see a friend. However, looking skywards, they spotted a disc-shaped UFO above the road.
The object produced a strange mist and, when the mist touched the car, they duo say that everything went black.
Later, under hypnosis, Woods and Wright recalled having been forced aboard the UFO by three small entities.
They claim they were given a physical examination while on board the craft before being returned safely to theirvehicle.
Fraserburgh
Muchalls is not the only place in Aberdeenshire where UFO sightings have been reported.
A frightened north east family spotted a strange object in the sky just above their home near Fraserburgh, they filmed the UFO for a short while but it remained overhead for hours.
Morag Ritchie noticed the flickering rotating lights around 2am and explained to BBC Scotland: “I saw what I thought was a bright star.
“However, it was a sequence of flashing lights. There was also a darting light coming from the side. There was no sound, either.”
Ritchie woke her family up and they all witnessed the UFO hang in the air as a number of other lights turned on and off around the main object.

Daily 2 Cents: Podesta Regrets Failure of Securing UFO Disclosure -- Marilyn Manson Says Demons Exist -- Ritual Burying of Live Children
Daily 2 Cents: Podesta Regrets Failure of Securing UFO Disclosure -- Marilyn Manson Says Demons Exist -- Ritual Burying of Live Children
Podesta Regrets Failure of Securing UFO Disclosure
John Podesta has stated that his biggest failure of the last year was not securing UFO disclosure.
The presidential councilor concluded his latest stint in the White House on Friday by detailing some of the high and low points of his time there as well as some of his greatest triumphs and regrets.
Of particular interest was a Tweet admitting that his biggest failure over the last twelve months was his inability to secure disclosure about the UFO phenomenon, a topic that he has maintained a keen interest in over the last few decades.
During a Coalition for Freedom of Information press conference in 2002 he famously commented on the importance of disclosing the details of government UFO investigations to the public.
"We ought to do it, really, because it’s right," he said. "We ought to do it, quite frankly, because the American people can handle the truth. And we ought to do it because it’s the law."
Podesta will now be taking on the role as chairman of Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign. Read more at Yahoo
Marilyn Manson believes there are many things humans can’t comprehend in the world.
The goth rocker used to have a major issue with organised religion, but as he’s aged he’s begun to express that in a different way. Now he’s open about his beliefs in things like alchemy and astral projection to some extent, even if he doesn’t always like discussing them at great length in public.
“I do believe in things beyond our understanding: aliens, angels, demons, whatever they are,” he told Paper magazine.
“Do you sit around drawing circles with pentagrams and light candles? That's for the uninitiated. That's for the fools."
The 46-year-old disagrees with God as many people see him, calling it “foolish” of people to presume someone would share the meaning of life should they know it.
Marilyn also cleared up how he views himself – insisting he is a rock starand not a celebrity in any way. At the moment he’s promoting his latest record The Pale Emperor, which got him onto the subject of muses. While he knows they are a real concept, it wasn’t his girlfriend Lindsay Usich who was the driving force behind his new music; instead it came from something the artist wanted to show.
"I wouldn't say so much a 'muse' [inspired the record] as it was me trying to regain myself,” he explained.
“I liked the power of being in control of my life. I don't have to be tortured to be an artist. This year, I was not tortured.”
There could be something bigger at play too – his mother Barbara died last year following a battle with dementia. It is something which has played on his mind a lot, and it brought him closer to his father Hugh.
“I saw the mortality in my family," he said. "I think I found a responsibility there, a responsibility to myself. I didn't want the story to end p**s-poor.” - Belfast Telegraph
There is a strange ritual currently taking roots in rural parts of Karatu District, where little children are taken into the wilderness and buried underground, leaving only their heads protruding on the surface.
The new practice is baffling local officials in the area who are still not sure why the youngsters are being subjected to such ordeal and why.
Those who have been recently discovered under such circumstances, happen to be too young to even speak.
"The recent one, for instance, was discovered by cattle herders who at first ran away scared of seeing just a head of a live baby which looked like it was growing from the ground," explained Reverend Johnson Lugenge, the Administrator at Shalom Orphanage Centre in Karatu.
The Director of Shalom, Ms Wara Elisamia Nnko, said the little cherub was discovered buried while it was also raining heavily.
"In fact he had to be given pneumonia dosage before his health could stabilise," she narrated. Remnants of dead babies and children are common in Karatu while the runaway juvenile population in the district, according to experts, is staggering and the recent practice of 'planting' children in the ground is described to be the latest horrid phenomenon targeting youngsters.
Several Karatu residents interviewed said that while some of the children are discovered alive but in critical condition, the unluckier ones are mauled by wild animals.
The Executive Secretary for the Imani Focus Foundation, which is a Non-Governmental Organisation dedicated to assisting children living under difficult situations as well as runaway young ladies, Mr Stanley Mruma, also admitted that Karatu was becoming a hostile place for children.
A social welfare officer in the district, Mr Abdallah Nyange, revealed that he had served in many parts of the country but Karatu proved to be the only area "where children got more than their fair share of suffering."
"There are nearly 10,000 young children living under very difficult and dangerous situations in Karatu," said Mr Nyange, explaining that this was the result of their recent surveys.
He added: "You will be surprised that in Karatu, parents are never worried when any of their children go missing, they do not make much efforts to look for them and if a child gets missing for a week, months or even year, the family treat the situation as normal."
To rescue the situation, the Karatu District Social Welfare Department and the local police have started taking to task parents whose children are found loitering randomly, forcing them to not only take them back, but also ensure they are well-fed and attend school.
Through the new initiative, over 500 renegade children have been re-united with their families, according to Mr Nyange.
The Community Development Officer with the Ngorongoro Conservation Area Authority (NCAA), Mr Selustin Halu, said since the parastatal organisation is located adjacent to Karatu, they have taken the initiative of assisting local orphanages in the area and this week they sent in a cheque of 5 million/- to the Shalom centre. - All Africa
EXHAUSTED and terrified, Dorah lies in her bed waiting for the attack of the romantic tokoloshe.
And when he finally comes, he holds her, caresses her, kisses her and then, as he does every night, forces her to have sex with him.
AND WHEN HE’S DONE, HE WHISPERS “DANKIE, SWEETIE” BEFORE SLIPPING OUT OF BED.
But Dorah Molefe (62) from Mamelodi, Tshwane said there is nothing romantic about the way the tokoloshe performs once he is on top of her.
She said the short hairy tokoloshe pokes her, leaving her weak and tired with a sore punani.
“I have gone to about 10 sangomas to help chase this evil creature away but nobody has been able to help me.”
“I fear going to bed because I know the tokoloshe won’t leave me alone. I scream for help but nobody hears me. I try to fight it but it is too strong.” She said it performs like a porn star.
“It kisses and caresses my private parts and then it has violent sex with me.”
Dorah said she is appealing to anyone who can help her to get rid of this beast.
“I am not a young woman. I have two adult daughters. I need somebody with strong powers to chase this thing from my house,” she said.
She said the tokoloshe also steals her money and even eats food from her house. “I like buying peanut butter but before I eat it, the bottle is empty. I think it is the tokoloshe that likes sweet things,” she said.
Dorah showed the SunTeam a mirror she claims the tokoloshe broke.
“I don’t know what to do. People just seem to hate me. A sangoma once told me I have been cursed with evil muthi so people don’t want to have anything to do with me,” she said.
“And I once found a dead bird in my bedroom. What does it mean?”
Dorah said the trouble started about 10 years ago, at about the same time that a tenant left her yard, but she has no proof that the tenant did anything to her.
Sangoma Dumezweni Mahabuke from kwaThema, Ekurhuleni told Daily Sun: “My bones tell me there was a person staying in her yard who left with a heavy heart. He planted muthi in her yard and that thing is now revealing itself in the form of a tokoloshe who sleeps with her.”
He said she must immediately get an inyanga who will point out where the muthi is planted, otherwise her children will disappear one by one. - Daily Sun

'Great Michigan UFO Chase' Gets an After Life on Science Channel
'Great Michigan UFO Chase' Gets an After Life on Science Channel
Some longtime southeast Michigan residents may recall the frenzy of a full-on UFO alert 50 years ago.
A military expert explained away the strange sightings reported by about 100 southeast Michiganders who thought they’d seen UFOs in 1966, saying it was swamp gas – the methane gas created by decomposing vegetative matter in marshy areas. (Photo via Creative Commons)
_________
After more than half a century of trying to convince people to believe their own eyes and close their ears to skeptics, local ufologist – that’s a person who studies phenomena related to unidentified flying objects – Henry Willnus says he’s accustomed to being waved away as a kook.
A retired social studies teacher living in Salem, Willnus also is the former president of the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), the world’s largest investigative body looking into the UFO phenomena.
So he claims some standing when asked the cliched – but in Willnus’ view, the “No. 1” – question:
“Are we alone?”
Unequivocally, no, says Willnus, who claims that 200 UFO sightings a day are reported “around the world and in every country around the world.”
“There’s pictures, photos and movies,” Willnus told the Observer & Eccentric. “It’s not a hoax when these crafts can disappear before our eyes. Or fly at over 1,000 miles an hour and make a right angle turn – or, stop on a dime.”
“Cosmic Watergate”
Willnus, who didn’t give his age, said he wants to settle this whole matter of UFOs once and for all, before his last day on Earth.
“I’m getting up there and I want this story to break before I pass,” he said. “Some people in the U.S. government are aware we are being visited. This is a cosmic Watergate where there is a cover-up keeping this from people.”
So its a big deal to Willnus that the Science Channel invited him to discuss the UFO phenomenon on a couple of upcoming episodes of its “ Close Encounters” program, now in its second season.
The first guest appearance, at 10 p.m. Tuesday, March 10, falls during the anniversary month of of southeast Michigan’s famous 1966 brush with other-worldliness in Dexter. Willnus will also be on the program three weeks later, at 10 p.m. on Tuesday, March 31, to talk about a reported September 1965 UFO sighting in Exeter, NH.
Motorized Posse Chased UFOs
The UFO kerfuffle nearly half a century ago in Dexter included more than 100 reports, sightings over several days, and a motorized posse of a dozen Washtenaw County deputies who chased but couldn’t catch a flying object witnesses said traveled at a high rate of speed and turned from blue-green to brilliant red to yellow.
Tell Us:
Do you remember the “Great Michigan UFO Chase of 1966”? Can UFOs be explained in some what that doesn’t include extraterrestrial beings?
In case you’re doubting this out-of-this-world chapter in southeast Michigan’s history, others back Willnus up – to a point.
According to an account called “ The Great Michigan UFO Chase of 1966,” an unidentified aircraft reportedly maneuvered around Washtenaw County for about four hours on March 14, 1966, buzzing the University of Michigan campus in Ann Arbor, a nearby airport and a local swamp.
Three days later, the deputies embarked on their unsuccessful quest to chase down whatever it was that was setting southeast Michiganders’ nerves on edge. Some people described the object as football shaped, while others said it looked like a pyramid. Frank Manno’s wife was reportedly scared and eager to move from their farm on McGuinness Road after seeing what she thought was a UFO.
Full of Swamp Gas?
And some people – notably, Air Force astronomer and UFO expert Dr. J. Allen Hynek, who studied the phenomenon as part of the government’s two-decade-long Project Blue Book – said those who thought they saw flying saucers were, in a manner of speaking, full of swamp gas.
Also called marsh gas, it’s the methane produced in the decomposition of vegetation in peat swamps and bogs. The odorless gas creates small popping explosions that Hynek said may account for some residents’ reports of sounds similar to a ricocheting bullet or high-frequency ambulance siren.
When ignited, it does look like something out of this world.
“The flames go out in one place and suddenly appear in another, giving the illusion of motion,” Hynek said at the time. “The colors are sometimes yellow, sometimes red and blue-green.
“It seems likely that as the present spring thaws came, the gases methane, hydrogen sulfide and phosphine – resulting from decomposition of organic materials – were released.”
He said he “got within 500 yards of that thing” when it whirred over his farm, according to an account on the UFO Case Book website. He described the object as pyramid-shaped, with “a light here, and a light there, and what looked like a porthole.”
“It wasn’t like the pictures of a flying saucer and it had a coral-like surface,” he said. “I’ve trapped every hole in this county and I’ve never seen anything like it.”
And it wasn’t swamp gas, either, a commercial pilot who claimed to know a thing or two about swamp gas said.
Van Horn of Hillsdale grew up in the swamp area where many of the sightings were reported. He said the Air Force didn’t take the investigation seriously. “A lot of good people are being ridiculed,” he said.
The UFO Case Book account also takes a swipe at the government, calling the Air Force investigation “a whirlwind probe that lasted two hours and 45 minutes.”
Student Prank?
Sightings continued throughout the month in the localized area of Washtenaw, Macomb and Oakland counties, but also as far away as Marquette and Frankfort, where a reported UFO turned out to be a marine flare.
It was quite a chapter in southeast Michigan’s history. Carloads of students from the University of Michigan and Eastern Michigan University were caught up in the craze, turning out by the carloads for UFO sighting outings.
That fueled some speculation it was a prank perpetrated on the locals by the college students, but Mannon said they couldn’t have pulled off such an elaborate hoax without being detected.
Other sightings were also debunked. In Ypsilanti, for example, a reported UFO was actually a dry cleaning bag, to which a plastic cross holding several candles had been attached.
The commotion eventually died down, and the government abandoned its Project Blue Book investigation in 1969 after determining UFOs weren’t a threat to national security.
That doesn’t sit well with Willnus.
“The best thing that could happen,” he said, “is if governments, including the United States, would come out and say, ‘The UFO phenomenon is real and don’t panic, because they don’t appear to be here to harm us.’ “

The Hidden Truth About UFOs?
The Hidden Truth About UFOs?
By Anonymous
After 30 years of seeking the truth about UFOs and aliens I have learned the following and would like to share it with others so they don't have to pay the high price I have paid for my journey of discovery.
One of the most important things I have learned is that our reality is one which is carefully crafted to keep us from being aware of a hidden greater reality that exists just beyond the perception of most people. Perhaps other than religion, no topic has been subject to such a vast and well-funded disinformation camapign as UFOs and aliens. Given the immense effort required to create and perpetuate the disinformation, the truth behind the issue must be of vital importance to those putting forth the disinformation.
Seeking the truth about UFOs and aliens can bring a glimpse of the greater reality and lead to a better understanding of the true nature of our existence. However, seeking such such information can also result in being abducted and subjected to mind-control by those who want to keep the information secret. Coping with the greater reality can demand an expansion of consciousness and greater emotional strength, therefore, many people simply ignore the issue altogether.
Are UFOs Real?
An unidentified flying object (UFO) is any flying object that is simply unidentified, so there are plenty of real UFOs. If you ask if UFOs are alien craft from another world, the answer is generally "No". Since the early 1940's most, but not all, UFOs seen by the public have been highly advanced craft made and piloted by humans. Recently declassifed documents support earlier testimony that Germany had functional long-range flying discs in the 40's and produced the "Foo Fighters" seen by Allied pilots during WW II.
By prior arrangement, the US & Russia 'captured' much of the German technology and 'recruited' the most skilled scientists and engineers. With US financing and German technology and engineers, the US & Russia continued Germany's technological leap-frog of decades over most other nations. It is this giant technological leap forward that may have one of the reasons WW II was started.
A few UFOs are indeed 'alien' in the sense that they are not made by the military of us surface dwellers. In some cases they are time travelers, in other cases they may be probes from another dimension or craft from intra-terrestrials - beings who live inside the Earth. Some of the 'aliens' seen by abductees may be props, genetically engineered creatures or ITs (intra-terrestrials).
Most of the information about 'aliens' is disinformation designed to conceal the existence of ancients beings living inside the Earth or modern advanced military craft.
There is little evidence to prove that UFOs are actually visitors from another planet. However, there is also no proof that there aren't visitors here from other planets and it is reasonable that intelligent life out there is well aware of Earth and is keeping on eye on us primitive and potentially dangerous humans. Much of the behavior of UFOs cited as proof that they are beyond human technology can now be explained technologically so it is no longer logical that non-conventional aircraft must be from another planet.
UFOs can generally be divided into three types:
Craft from more ancient beings who are likely living inside the Earth.
Advanced military craft built by modern humans.
Craft from other dimensions, times or planets.
Type 1 - Ancient Earthling's Ships
Flying saucers and other aircraft have been around for thousands of years or more and piloted by beings who previously posed as Gods. Some of the ships that were flying around in the past would be pretty low-tech by today's standards.
The History Channel series "Ancient Aliens" presents compelling evidence that technologically advanced beings inhabitated Earth while humans were still quite primitive.
Archeological evidence shows that relatively modern 'people' have lived on Earth for more than a million years, even if the evidence is not widely accepted. Recent analysis of a fossilized footprint believed to be 1.5 million years old shows that relatively modern hominids walked the Earth at least that long ago. A gold chain was found embedded in coal which is approx. 300 million years old. Numerous other modern objects have been embedded in rock which is millions of years old. This author found an iron spike encased in sedimentary rock that was formed well before the iron age of Homo sapiens.
Egyptian heiroglyphs showing fying craft
"Strong and durable must the body of the Vimana be made, like a great flying bird of light material. Inside one must put the mercury engine with its iron heating apparatus underneath. By means of the power latent in the mercury which sets the driving whirlwind in motion, a man sitting inside may travel a great distance in the sky. The movements of the Vimana are such that it can vertically ascend, vertically descend, move slanting forwards and backwards. With the help of the machines human beings can fly in the air and heavenly beings can come down to earth." - Indian Samarangana Sutradhara, circa 1000 BC
"The privilege of operating a flying machine is great. The knowledge of flight is among the most ancient of our inheritances. A gift from 'those from upon high'. We received it from them as a means of saving many lives." - Babylonian Hakatha, circa 1500 BC
So, if one accepts the evidence and considers the notion that intelligent beings have inhabited the Earth for a very long time and they had flying ships the question then becomes "Where are they now?".
Inner Earthlings
Earth has long had a hostile environment. The chances of being eaten, trapped in a flood, avalanche, ice age, hurricane, dying of a communicable disease or parasites, etc. is pretty high. Any civilization that developed technologically would have likely considered moving underground to a controlled environment to avoid natural disasters and the hostile creatures on the surface. Even today, with our ability to monitor the weather and defend ourselves against most threats, our military has constructed underground cities and transportation systems as insurance against potential disasters and as a way to conduct secret and illegal activities. For an advanced species, living on the surface is not necessary nor is it the most sustainable.
The fact that many UFOs are seen entering and exiting the oceans or the sides of mountains shows that the craft come from the deep ocean or inner Earth or are at least are hiding out there.
Given the violent and destructive nature of humans, it is likely that any beings living inside the Earth would want to keep their existence as inner-Earth dwellers a secret. If they wanted to interact with humans but keep their true origins and the location of their homes secret the best way to do that would be to pretend to be from another planet.
Tall Blonds (Nordics, Anu, Anunaki)
Humans have long described the ancient gods as being tall, blond and having blue eyes. Many ancient legends tell how humans came from inside the Earth. The Inca mined and stored gold to present to gods who were tall blonds.
Abductees frequently report the presence of tall blond and blue-eyed people during abductions who function as observers. In UFO literature they are often called the "Nordics". These same types of entities also present themselves to contactees as Pleiadians. Contactees frequently start cults that promote the notion that the Pleadians are space-brothers who want to help humans evolve. However, the 'Pleiadians' rarely offer any truly useful information and don't actually seem to help anyone or encourage human evolution and in reality try to limit human development.
Truly benevolent tall blonds are reported to come from inside the Himalayas but keep their contact with humans to a minimum. The underground cities of these beings may be the source for the Shangri La / Shambala legends.
Most of the tall blonds look down on humans and regard them as inferior and even repugnant. Given our violent and self-destructive nature, their opinions may be well-deserved.
As human technology has advanced the gap between humans and advanced species has shrunk. These days, a secret underground alien base is more likely to be a US military base with genetically engineered beings or humans dressed in alien costumes.
Genetic Engineering - Nazi Lebensborn Project
Some tall blonds are merely genetically engineered humans. The Nazi Lebensborn program to create a pure Aryan race was continued by the US military and Nazi scientists working in South America and evolved into a program to create cloned machine-enhanced 'super-soldiers'. The program is reported to be successful and some insiders claim that the U.S. military has almost 200,000 super-soldiers (also called cyber-clones) in underground bases. These soldiers are remotely controlled to a certain degree and are raised to believe that surface dwellers are inferior and the enemy. Super soldiers have been spotted in Iraq functioning as 'terminators'.
These genetically-engineered soldiers would be used against US citizens in the event that a military takeover faced too much resistence. They may also be used in a staged alien invasion.
Lebensborn ceremony, 1944
One of the Nazis involved in genetic engineering was Josef Mengele, an SS physician who used prisoners in experiments at Auschwitz concentration camp. In 1945 he relocated to South America where he continued his work underground and in public. In the German emigre village of Candido Godoi in Brazil, Mengele helped make the town the world's twin capital.
Twins in Candido Godoi in a 2006 group photo
Mengele's work was perhaps intended to be a decoy, for the real genetic engineering program went on in secret underground labs in the Andes Mountains near the border of Chile, Argentina and Bolivia, and in other locations. If someone were to investigate cloning research in South America they would first stumble upon Mengele's work and perhaps not investigate further.
One clue to the South American lab's location is the presence of the genetically engineered creature known throughout Latin America as Chupacabra (goat sucker). The Chupacabra was seen frequently in the year 2000 in northern Chile, not too far from the Argentina border and near one of the most desolate and isolated places on Earth - a perfect place to hide a secret underground lab. This particular lab cloned the first human in 1969!
Other monsters and 'aliens' have also been created in secret military genetic engineering labs and it is possible that many 'alien' encounters are merely encounters with genetically engineered creatures.
Personal Contact with the 'Nordics'
As far as I know, I have had only one conscious encounter with the 'tall blonds'. It was in the late 80's at a hot springs pool in the Rocky Mountains on a cold winter night around 2 AM. The pool was officially closed but since I knew the management I was allowed to stay as late as I wanted.
The pool was next to an open field with mountains on the other side of the field and very few houses anywhere in the vicinty. From the field I heard a low-pitched pulsing sound accompanied by a high pitch sound. The sound came closer and then stopped. From the pitch blackness of the night walked six people, all about 7 foot tall (2.13 meters). They wore identical white robes and had shoulder-length light blond hair.
I was in a shadow in the corner of the pool with just my nose above the water. The dim lights around the pool illuminated the well-endowed muscular bodies of three women and three men. The men sat in the pool together and the women sat apart from the men. There was no physical contact between them and they acted a bit like children. The women giggled at the nakedness of the men. If they had been regular people it is likely that there would have been some coupling or at least the usual mating games going on. These beings did not act at all human in that regard.
They spoke in hushed tones but what I could hear sounded like a cross between German and Hebrew. After about 15 minutes or so they sensed me and in unison they stared in my direction. They radiated a feeling of intense disgust, as though a dead rat was in the pool. After they saw me they quickly left, walked into the dark field and left in what could have only been a flying craft of some sort as there was no road and the next day there were no tracks in the snow. At below zero temperatures it was far too cold for anyone to have walked anywhere in just a robe and no houses to walk to in the direction they took. The only logical explanation for the sound of their ship was some sort of air craft.
Were they aliens just because they came in an unconventional craft, were 7 ft tall and looked nearly identical? At the time I thought that I had seen aliens. However, they could have also been products of the Lebensborn program and from a nearby underground base or they could have been ancients Earthlings. The area has long been known for frequent sightings of UFOs.
Underground Bases in Utah, Colorado and New Mexico
If one accepts the most apparent interpretation of petroglyphs and local native legends, the area from north eastern Utah down to north central New Mexico has long been a mysterious area with frequent UFO sightings that date back at least 1,000 years. The sparsely populated area is still a hot-spot for sightings of UFOs, Sasquatch and other strange things.
The US government has long known about the UFO sightings and possible underground facilities in the region. In the 70's a detailed deep seismic mapping operation was carried out to determine where the underground bases might be. In Rulison, Colorado, near Dulce, New Mexico, and in other locations, nuclear bombs were detonated deep underground and the shock waves were measured at various locations. Military insiders claim that a total of 11 nuclear bombs were deontated. One of the seismic facilities can still be seen northwest of Glade Park, Colorado on BS Road, where there are three concrete quonset huts, concrete blocks with sensor connectors and cables running just under the surface of the ground.
seismographic facility for mapping underground bases in western Colorado
The 'official' explanation for the facility is that it was for testing conventional explosives, despite the fact that it was obviously setup as a seismic station. It is not at all likely that the facility was used for testing explosives. The military already has plenty of facilities for testing explosives that are not next to environmentally sensitive areas and ranches. As usual, the military is simply lying.
Evidence suggests that the underground bases in western Colorado and eastern Utah were not originally military. It is apparent that the military is trying to reach the non-human underground bases and have setup their own underground operations to wage war against whatever is occupying the underground facilities. People in the Grand Junction area have seen entire military convoys vanishing into mountains where no military facilities exist.
Numerous people have seen ships in the area with glowing orange spheres that penetrate the nearby mountains and canyons.
The Shell oil shale operation northeast of Grand Junction has security that is seen only on the most the sensitive military bases with three levels of independent security. Personnel who work at the inner most part of the facility live on site and have not been seen to leave. Delivery trucks and outside service personnel are reportedly never allowed beyond secondary perimeter. Containers are routinely trucked out of the facility to a rail yard in Grand Junction and each shipment is closely monitored. Truckers who are a few minutes late in arriving at the rail yard due to a flat tire or another reason are fired. Something much more sensitive than oil shale mining is likely going on at the Shell plant - perhaps recovery of underground alien artifacts?
In other remote parts of the world there are places where UFOs have been seen on a regular basis throughout recorded human history. So, it is likely that the ITs (intraterrestrials) have multiple entrances to their inner Earth facilities.
Type 2 - Advanced Military Craft Built by Modern Humans
The Great UFO Hoax Begins
Manufacturing Fear of Aliens
Fear is the most powerful form of mass persuasion and fear of aliens has been carefully cultivated in popular media for more than 100 years, starting in 1898 when H.G. Wells' book "War of the Worlds" about an alien invasion of Earth was published. Wells was a proponent of a totalitarian world government and eugenics and many of his writings have turned out to be quite prophetic, indicating that he had 'insider' information or was adept at viewing the future.
Forty years after Wells first conjured up fear of aliens, on Sunday, October 30, 1938, millions of American radio listeners were victims of a hoax by Orson Welles' radio adaptation of H.G. Well's book "War of the Worlds" . Many listeners believed that the radio program was real and panicked, thinking that the Earth was indeed being invaded by hostile aliens. Given that Orson Wells was an elite insider it is quite likely that Orson's stunt was orchestrated as part of a long-term program of disinformation and social engineering.
Staged Sightings?
When the U.S. came into possession of German flying saucers and other advanced technology in the 40's it took a great leap ahead in technology and of course wanted to keep that technology a secret. Better that the world think that its new flying saucers and flying wings were alien ships from another world than secret military technology. So, the U.S. military set about developing a massive psychological operation that remains one of the most elaborate hoaxes in modern history.
On June 24th, Tuesday, 1947 the psy-op was put into high gear with the reported sighting of unidentified aircraft (UFOs) by pilot Kenneth Arnold while he was flying near Mt. Rainier, Washington. There had been other sightings prior to that time but this was the first case that was widely reported by the media and it is this story which is credited for starting the UFO craze in North America. It is likely that what Arnold saw was not US craft but German flying wings from an Arctic or Canadian base.
Kenneth Arnold described 9 craft which flew in a "saucer-like fashion". The media chose to describe the craft as "flying saucers from outer space" despite the insistence by Arnold that they were not saucer shaped at all. An artist's rendering shows a craft not much different than Germany's secret Horton flying wing air craft.

The Truth About Nazi UFO Technology
By making people think that the craft were alien technology instead of German, the U.S. military was able to conceal the existence of highly advanced craft built in partnership with Nazi scientists working for the U.S. military and areospace companies. At the time, the U.S. was in an arms race with the Russians with their own Nazi scientists and so needed an effective cover story when the American controlled craft were sighted.
To grasp what was really going at that point in history it is important to understand what the Nazis really were and the fact that they were not actually defeated during WW II. It was the German military and government that was defeated and surrendered, while most of the key Nazi leadership simply relocated to South America and possibly Antarctica. Prior to the surrender hundreds of corporations were established which were used to launder vast sums acquired during the war and to continue to finance the Nazi agenda.
Thousands of Nazi scientists were absorbed into the U.S. military industrial complex under Operation Paperclip where they continued their research and development. Other scientists were sent to Russia where they transferred their knowledge to Russian scientists. Unlike the U.S., Russia didn't trust the Nazis and sent most of its Nazi scientists back to Germany or to the Gulag after their knowledge was transferred to Russians.
The human world has long been dominated by wealthy families deeply immersed in the occult. I choose to call them the 'evil elite'. These families have access to knowledge which has been passed down for possibly thousands of years or longer. They continually seek knowledge to preserve and further their own power. Knowledge of ancient flying craft was certainly passed down to the evil elite.
The Nazi party was merely one expression of the ruling evil elite which has dominated human history. The Nazi party and World War II was a deliberate program to develop highly advanced technology which could not have been developed without a totalitarian regime and vast amounts of slave labor. Stalinist Russia was another cover for a massive expansion of technology and resulted in the enslavement and death of millions of Russian citizens and the development of highly advanced weapons and other technology.
It is reported that Germany first started developing flying 'saucers' in the 20's. By the late 1930s flying wings and saucers were being flown successfully in Germany.
Some historians claim that Germans used information 'channeled' from beings who claimed to be from the planet Aldebran. Given Germany's extremely rapid technology development it is highly probable that they were being fed information from someplace.
The Nazi movement in Germany was initially financed from industrialists in the US and Britain with deep occult backgrounds. Hitler simply could not have gained power without the support of the evil elite in the US and Britain and the Catholic Church.
Occultists in Germany within the Vril Society and other organizations were the driving force behind the development of flying saucers and other highly advanced aircraft. Because the Nazi movement was part of an international program of the evil elite its success was assured until the desired achievements had been reached. Once the technological milestones had been reached, Germany's defeat was engineered and the transfer out of financial, technological and human resources began.
The Great UFO Disinformation Complex
In order to keep its technological achievements secret, the evil elite has created a massive program that includes mass media, UFO researchers and a mass abduction and mind control program. An essential aspect of the program is mind control and social engineering technology. To date, this program has been highly effective. An elaborate mythology has been created while the truth is kept at the far fringes of human awareness.
Organizations like The National UFO Reporting Center have never been more than a black-hole where actual sightings disappear and bogus sightings appear - just as MUFON is primarily a govt. intelligence operation to gather information and identify real abductees so it can abduct them to pump their brains and program them to gather info. for the military. Virtually every UFO 'reporting center' is operated by the military to gather information about potential sightings of non-American craft and control information about the sightings it wants kept quiet.
One UFO researcher from Texas is a master hypnotist who can actually hypnotize people telepathically and is reported to molest the women he claims to help while they are under hypnosis. His mission is to identify people who are either having real alien abduction experiences or are being abducted by rival intelligence agencies.
In the early days of the Internet the first online UFO forums and abductee support groups were run by the military as intelligence gathering and social engineers programs. One of the most popular ones was the "Encounters Forum" until it was exposed for what it was. The person who exposed the operation was harassed for years by the military and subjected to electronic attacks, had their credit trashed, insurance cancelled and eventually had to leave the country to survive.
Most all radio and TV programs, books and web sites which cover the UFO field have never been more than disinformation programs. Only a very small percentage of the information they put out has any validity. TV and radio programs avoid covering most of the real issues and their guests include those who are either disinformation specialists or approved because they are under the 'control' of the military. Truly independent researchers are simply not allowed access to mass media except their own web sites, Public Access TV or maybe YouTube on occasion.
Virtually every prominent UFO researcher is under the control of the powers that be. Any real investigator who persists in publishing unauthorized information is usually abducted, tortured and subjected to mind control. Those that don't accept the control are eliminated.
UFO Conferences are almost always put on by those with connections to the military or controlled by them to perpetuate the UFO - alien mythology by their stable of UFO 'researchers' and to identify possible authentic experiencers.
If you have unexplained experiences do NOT let anyone at a conference know about it or talk about it at a conference. If you do then you can expect to have a bad 'abduction' experience and will be exposed to highly effective mind control.
Men such as the un-named individual at the right are present at UFO conferences to ensure that the truth about UFOs is known only to the military. The image was blurred after the Author was threatened by the military.
Do NOT trust anyone in the UFO community if you want to avoid being abducted, tortured and mind controlled by the military.
Abudctions & Hypno-Therapists
One of the first 'alien' abductions that was widely reported in the media was the case of Betty and Barney Hill. However, what was not widely reported is that they both remember the ship they were taken in was commanded by a "leader as looking like a "German Nazi" wearing a shiny black jacket, scarf and cap".
While there are 'abductions' from actual aliens, most abductions are actually done by the military (MILAB). Sophisticated mind control techniques are used to make the abductees believe that they were abducted by aliens. Military abductions are done for the purpose of creating fear of aliens and to create unwitting spies who gather information about actual aliens.
Many military abductees are programmed to seek out specific hypno-therapists if their memories start to erode and there is a chance that the truth might leak out. When I was abducted by the military I was programmed to seek out a certain hypno therapist operating near Pasadena, California. While attending support group meetings there I met a number of other military 'alien' abductees who had also been programmed to seek out the same therapist.
Most every person who runs an abductee hypnosis-support group racket is working for the military, whether they know it or not. Some of these people are extremely dangerous and use subtle mind control techniques while conducting their hypnotic regression session. They can easily influence the abductee's memories and reinforce the mind control mechanisms.
One well-known hypnotherapist in the Los Angeles area was seen in the company of the military at some of her client's abductions. It is likely that she was also a mind control victim and didn't remember any of her encounters with the military.
Military UFO Bases
There are numerous underground military bases in North America and other parts of the world which contain highly advanced human technology - including flying saucers, genetically engineered humans (Lebensborn, super-soldiers, cyber-clones) and genetically engineered 'aliens'. Most of the bases in the U.S. are connected by tunnels in which high-speed pneumatic mag-lev? trains operate.
The surveillance, cloaking and defensive technology used at these facilities is beyond the comprehension of most people. Simply getting near them will ensure that you are abducted, tortured and programmed so there is no point in trying to get close enough to such a facility to see anything.
California
Southern California is honey-combed with underground facilities used by the military and war industry. Many of the unconventional air craft commonly described as UFOs were designed and built in underground plants near Palmdale and Lancaster close to Edwards Air Force Base. As a result, this area has been a hotspot for UFO sightings for decades. Reptilians have been seen walking around this area.
One of the most important facilities used to be the one near Tejon Ranch north of Los Angeles run by Northrop Grumman which is part of the massive Tehachapi facility that extends all the way north to the Bakersfield area. Residents in the farming community of Arvin (near Bakersfield) have long seen UFOs flying out of the side of the nearby mountains.
During the 90's many people who worked in the Los Angeles TV and film industries were abducted and taken to the Tehachapi facility for mind-control programming. I met several Fox TV employees that reported being taken there. X-Files co-producer Frank Spotnitz has admitted that he doesn't really know where the X-Files stories he helped write came from. The stories were likely programmed into his mind at the Tehachapi facility.
It is possible that some functions of the Tehachapi mind control facility have been replaced by one under Los Angeles itself. The construction of the Los Angeles subway provided a great cover for excavation of additional underground facilities and military insiders have confirmed that there are secret military facilities under L.A..
The TV series "Dollhouse" was intended to mask the existence of such facilities by creating a stronger data-point than the actual facilities. So, when someone thinks about underground mind-control facilities they think of the TV show, not the actual facilities. Many other TV programs and movies are designed specificially to mask classified projects.
In recent years it is also likely that abductions and hands-on mind control techniques have been replaced by more subtle remote mind control using psychic remote influencing and psychotronics (radionics) technology. A number of former abductees report experiences of their dreams being influenced or given to them and some even experience having their mind teleported into some kind of virtual reality. More recently, activists have reported having their soul sucked out of their body and transplanted into a prisoner at a govt. facility.
Mind control technology is now at a level well beyond the comprehension of most people.
Nevada
One of the most effective ways to control secret information is to leak a fictionalized version of it out to the public and then make a poor attempt to discredit the information. One of the places which has been the focus of the most deliberately leaked information is Area 51 in Nevada.
Area 51 is one part of the massive Nevada Test Site where the U.S. did open-air and below ground testing of nuclear weapons. The Nevada Test Site is one of the largest and most secure military facilities in the world and continues to host classified research into highly advanced technology, including aircraft. The Test Site officially includes Area 1 through Area 30. There are various Areas such as Area 51 that remain classified and don't officially exist.
If one wanted to hide something super secret such as alien or highly advanced Nazi technology, the best place would be the Nevada Test Site.
Military insiders claim that no 'alien' technology is visible on the surface at Area 51 and people like Bob Lazar are merely spreading disinformation to perpetuate the UFO/alien hoax. However, there are likely some elements of truth about aliens and alien technology being held at some part of the Nevada Test Site.
In the early 1980's, when I was working in Northern Nevada and long before I had ever heard of Area 51 or had a serious interest in UFOs, I received a telepathic plea for help from a 'grey' alien. I felt compelled to drive into the desert to a location which I later found to be the Nevada Test Site. I ignored the pleas for help as being too bizarre and so didn't attempt to rescue the being some call a "J-Rod".
Near Area 51 there are underground facilities such as Area which are even more secretive
Fallon Naval Air Station is another spot that is reported to house unconventional aircraft. People who have tried to get too close to Fallon have been abducted and subjected to mind control, just as depicted by an X-Files episode. This type of response to potential intruders is usually reserved only for the most sensitive facilities.
Utah
Dugway Proving Grounds - Substantial underground facilities exist at Dugway Proving Ground west of Salt Lake City next to the Nevada border. The facility has security approaching the highest levels reserved only for those bases with nuclear or highly advanced technology. On the southeast corner of the base there used to be a place where you could climb up on a hill just outside the perimeter fence and look down into the base with a telescope. When I did so back in the late 90's I was immediately detected and a black Jeep Cherokee was dispatched to the fence to video tape me. Since then, the military has taken over the public land and it is no longer possible to look down into the facility from a hill-top.
Cache Valley, Roosevelt - Home to the Skin Walker Ranch and frequent sightings of UFOs and strange creatures. The Ranch was purchased by Bigelow Foundation and the anomalies on it studied by NIDS (National Institute of Discovery Science). NIDS was shut down in 2004.
The anomalies in this area may be due to interdimensional activity or interterrestrials (non-humans living under ground) or military activity. The published information about the Ranch is suspect due to the funding sources and involvement of known disinformation specialists in the project.
Green River - Contrary to the Defense Dept. disinformation rag Popular Mechanics, and other disinformation media, there is no Area 51 in eastern Utah at the old White Sands missle base in Greenriver. The facility is mothballed and portions used for storage by the town of Greenriver. However, one building reportedly contains access to underground facilities and is kept secured.
A very large 'mother' ship is seen often near the Green River area east to Grand Junction, Coloardo. It has been seen emitting and taking in glowing orange spheres which fly into the surrounding cliffs and mountains. The ship is seen most often in the autumn and seems to be some sort of transport craft that operates on a regular schedule.
La Sal Mountains (Moab - This is the most likely spot for an actual alien/ancient earthling base and is reported by military insiders to be a joint human-alien base and the source of the tall blonds I encountered. A large part of the mountains are on private land and there are Sasquatch (Bigfoot) sentries and microwave weapons deployed at the base of the mountains. It would be best to visit this area only from the west and stay on public property.
Just a few miles to the east of the La Sal Mountains is Gateway, Colorado and the Colorado headquarters/resort/car museum of John Hendricks, the founder of the Discovery Channel. On the main gate to his Sun West Creek Ranch property and his 25,000 square foot house and air-strip is a large black sun. Is it possible that John Hendricks is a member of the Black Sun cult which many Nazis were members of? Is it possible that he chose this location due to its close proximity to the underground alien-military base in the La Sal Mountains?
Colorado
Besides California and New Mexico, Colorado probably has the highest concentration of sensitive underground military activity and advanced technology.
In eastern Colorado there is likely an underground base that extends from Denver all the way south into New Mexico. Genetically engineered 'reptilians' from the base have been seen l times near the Black Forest northeast of Colorado Springs. Cattle mutiliations have been going on in the region since the mid 70's as part of an illegal bio-weapons program reported to operate out of Dulce, NM and Fort Carson, CO.
There may have been a supply entrance to underground tunnels located at 501 East Quincy Avenue southeast of Denver on land formerly owned by the Air Force and owned by Autoliv in the 90's. After this author first exposed the facility it was shut down and the underground portions sealed. It has been renamed "Vista Ridge Business Center".
This facility was believed to connect to the pneumatic robotic subway linked to various underground facilities when it was owned by OEA Aerospace. The underground portion was built in the late 70s when the property was still part of Lowry Air Force bombing range and former Titan missle bases located nearby. Local residents tell how cement trucks were lined up 24 hours/day for weeks as massive amounts of concrete was poured underground. Some of the original tunneling equipment was still visible up until the mid 90s.
Southeast and Northeast of the former Autoliv facility there were old Titan nuclear missle silos which were active in the 60's and 70's but are now deactivated and on private property. When an attempt was made to visit the mothballed missle base near Quincy Road back in the 80's, a sheriff appeared within minutes to arrest those who had crossed the fence that wasn't posted with no-trespassing signs. Another old missle base is west of the tiny town of Elbert - a hot-spot cattle mutilations and UFO sightings.
Northwest of the Quincy Avenue facility is the mysterious Buckley Air Force base. For 40 years the base operated as the Buckley Air National Guard while secretly supporting secret space operations. In 2000 it was officially transferred to the Air Force's Space Command and now supports 92,000 personnel. Buckley is unique in that 77different military organizations have facilities of some sort on the base.
Official Military Patch from 1999
The base has long conducted satellite operations and is a major center for the massive and highly secret 'Star Wars' program started by Ronald Reagan. Some people feel that America's real space program is commanded from Buckley & other facilities while NASA is primarly just a decoy program. It is no coincidence that most all of the companies involved in 'Star Wars' weapons research and development established facilities between Ft. Carson and Buckley.
Ft. Carson is also another likely place for military UFOs and a possible source for cattle mutiliations. Cattle mutilations have been concentrated Northeast, South and Southwest of Ft. Carson. UFOs are frequently seen in the area.
Florida
Eglin Air Force Base Headquarters for exotic weapons and technology and black ops in the Caribbean and Latin America. Unconventional craft are warehoused here. The base appears to also be a center for occult activity and is one reason why large numbers of retired military intelligence officers and other loyal govt. employees retire in the area and join the local Masonic Lodge.
Eglin is close to Gulfbreeze where the military ran a substantial UFO/abduction psy-op.
New Mexico
New Mexico has been headquarters for some of the most secret military activity since the early 40s. Most of the activity centers around Cannon Air Force Base, Holloman Air Force Base - White Sands Missile Range, Kirtland Air Force Base and Los Alamos Research Labs and their underground facilities near Dulce. There are also underground facility outside military bases such as the one on the west side of Socorro where exotic weapons have been tested. Kirtland also seems to be a major source for the whole UFO disinformation program.
Phillips Lab at Kirtland supports the Air Force Research Laboratory's Directed Energy and Space Vehicles Directorates. It may be the source for some of the electronic weapons, psychic spying - remote influencing and mind control technology used on abductees. Remote influencers have been traced to the Manzano facility at Kirtland where they work in an environment similar to the one depicted for the "pre-cogs" in the movie "Minority Report".
Dulce - There appears to be a substantial underground facility near Dulce that goes very deep and covers a wide area. Archuleta Mesa appears to be some kind of energetic portal for the facility.
The facility was primarily alien operated until the 60's when the upper levels were taken over by deep black aspects of the US military. While there are 3 hidden surface entrances, access is currently by underground tunnel from Los Alamos. Another deep tunnel connects to facilities to the west and north.
Most of what has been published about Dulce has been disinformation. One exception is the recent ebook "UFO Highway" by Anthony Sanchez which does contain some important truths but which also has a lot of disinformation in it.
Somewhere in northern New Mexico or Southern Colorado is an underground bio-weapons lab. It is here that the hanta-virus was created and the depopulation virus was engineered.
Confessions of Military Insiders
A number of former military personnel and civilan scientists working for the military and war industry have told similar stories about the US advancing German techonology and developing highly advanced craft capable of interplanetary travel. Some even claim that the US started visiting the Moon and Mars starting in the 1950's.
Obvious Conclusions
When one considers the facts it is pretty easy to come to the conclusion that secret military programs have developed highly advanced craft and that the craft are used in staged 'alien' abductions. However, it also becomes apparent that there are craft which may not be advanced human military technology and that not all abductions are staged by the military. In our next part we will explore Type 3 UFOs - craft from other dimensions, times or planets.
For revelations about UFOs and aliens from a military insider who was formerly the base engineer for Area 51 watch the interview with Dr. Gilbert Jordan at www.ModernMysteries.tv. Be sure to check out the new book on the Dulce facility by Anthony Sanchez at www.UFOHighway.com

There wasn't much for me to do except decide to tell the truth even if it cost me my life. The world was changing and I was a major part of the knowing. Knowing that I could tell a story that was a part of the overall global consciousness. But who would believe me? What difference would it make? I was only an experiencer.
One person on a planet called earth that was full of experiencers. We were all experiencers. We who were those who could here could use our ears to hear the worlds I was trained to use to communicate. Communication was the key to making contact. Was contact then the key? Why was I here? Why was I alone on planet earth? Why was I the only one who felt that they ET's had taken an interest in enough to allow me to know that our country was wanting me to find out how to contact the extraterrestrials? But was that my mission? I was told by the ET's or at least those I thought were the ETS to believe they were my friends. They were white adult males who claimed to have a government job for me. They wanted me to take this job. They arranged for me to meet with men who would make sure I wanted to do this job.
There were men in black who were guiding my very life energy while looking for a job toward the job they wanted me to do. They wanted me to team up with a man they knew had been one of the best assassins and also one of the best alien contact individuals our government had ever known. I thought I was taking the job because I wanted too. Did I really? Now I don't even know that anymore. I thought I was lead to be a great investigator and yet I was taken to a room and told to sleep alone there. That was at Fort Hood, in Killeen Texas. No one would believe me. Not even my own daughter who was living there with her husband who entered the U.S. Army. This was part of the story that would make all my prior out of body, near death experiences, and ET UFO contact finally make sense in my life. The real story has to come out! It is now time to begin telling how I met my husband and the reason why!
I knew I had a soul and a conscience. The fact that science and spirit was at this time on earth seen as two opposite ends of the linear time line for humanoid sentient intelligent beings sharing the birth life death process was only part of the holistic view as a body-mind-spirit sharing this birth-life-death process. It was time for me to do more than simply share my science fiction paranormal fantasy version.
I had to tell my real time 3D story! This is my story of how I became involved with a real time killer who was asked to head up the military program for who we know as humanoids that live off planet and visit earth and always have.
The Fortean Slip News 45 This week Chris and Steve talk about John Podesta regretting not telling America about aliens, a mountain gorilla punching a photographer and aliens seeding planet earth. This webcast is uncensored.
Topadviseur Obama: "Amerikanen in het duister houden over UFO's is dieptepunt"
Topadviseur Obama: “Amerikanen in het duister houden over UFO’s is
dieptepunt"
John Podesta, een topadviseur van de Amerikaanse president Barack Obama, gaat vanaf februari Hillary Clinton bijstaan. Dan zal Podesta stoppen met zijn werk voor de regering-Obama. Volgens ingewijden wordt Podesta mogelijk campagneleider van Clinton, als die besluit een gooi naar het presidentschap te doen.
Vrijdag keek de topadviseur van Obama terug op het afgelopen jaar. Dat hij er opnieuw niet in is geslaagd om de UFO-files naar buiten te brengen, beschouwt Podesta als dieptepunt van zijn adviseurschap. “The truth is still out there,” twitterde hij.
Het is bekend dat Podesta al lange tijd is gefascineerd door UFO’s. Tijdens een persconferentie in 2002, die was georganiseerd door de Coalition for Freedom of Information, zei Podesta hoe belangrijk het is om UFO-documenten boven tafel te krijgen.
“Het is tijd om achter de waarheid te komen,” zei hij. “Niet alleen omdat het Amerikaanse volk de waarheid aankan, maar ook omdat de wet ons daartoe verplicht.”
De Washington Post schreef over een ontmoeting die één van haar journalisten in 2007 had met Podesta. Karen Tumulty vroeg hem over berichten dat de Clinton Library in Arkansas was overspoeld met Wob-verzoeken over e-mails van de oud-stafchef onder president Clinton over de ‘X-Files’ en ‘Area 51’. Via een woordvoerder zei hij zoals ze in de X-Files zeggen: “The truth is out there’.
In 2010 schreef Podesta het voorwoord van het baanbrekende boek van onderzoeksjournaliste Leslie Kean UFOs: Generals, Pilots, and Government Officials Go on the Record, waarin ze legergeneraals, piloten en overheidsfunctionarissen aan het woord laat over UFO’s.
Als campagneleider zal Podesta waarschijnlijk weinig tijd hebben om Wob-verzoeken te beantwoorden. Misschien geeft hij, zoals uit zijn tweet blijkt, de fakkel nu door aan columnist Maureen Dowd van de New York Times.
Arizona Once Again Chosen To Host The Largest UFO Convention
Arizona Once Again Chosen To Host The Largest UFO Convention
The Guinness Book of Records holder of the largest annual conference on UFOs and ET life in the world, The International UFO Congress, will return to Arizona on February 18, 2015. Hosted by Open Minds Production, the annual conference is already in its 24th year and the 5th time in the Phoenix area.
We-Ko-Pa Resort and Casino will host the conference, which will feature more than 20 speakers. Also expected in the conference are panel discussions, parties, film festival, experienced sessions, vendors, and a night-vision sky watch. The 5-day big event offers admission packages for those who don’t want to miss a single thing of the conference and for those who just wish to attend in the afternoon. For people who want to experience some activities of the conference for free, they can check out the vendor room, film festival and join the sky watch.
Bob Lazar will be doing the Q & A session. Lazar became famous when he put Area 51 on the map, claiming that he had worked there for reverse-engineering alien technology. Authors, researchers and television personalities will speak in panel presentations on topics about mass alien abductions, UFO secrets and UFO whistleblowers. The audience will get a chance to interact with speakers and ask related questions.
Co-organizer Maureen Elsberry said that there have made progress on UFO and search for extraterrestrial life topics despite the continuous decline of the stigma surrounding them. She said that the conference has been the ideal place where people can explore UFO and ET subjects in a serious light. She said that they are not asking the public to believe every speaker, but they’re asking you to keep an open mind.
Ben Hansen, the lead investigator of SyFy’s paranormal show, announced that the free Night Vision skywatch will be held on February 20, Friday. The latest military-grade technology from Night Vision Ops and Night Optics USA will be made available to participants.
Presentation by local musicians the Austen Mack Quartet, the EBE Film Festival Awards Banquet, and cocktail party are expected to add life to the event.
Interested individuals are encouraged to visit http://www.ufocongress.com more information about the International UFO Congress.
Ruimtestation ISS lijkt wel een UFO-knooppunt ( Video )
Ruimtestation ISS lijkt wel een UFO-knooppunt ( Video )
Zolang er in de mainstream media niet van NASA uitleg wordt geëist over de gebeurtenissen bij het ISS ruimtestation en de mensheid niet wordt geïnformeerd, blijven wij beelden en interpretaties ervan publiceren. Ooit zal de rest van de wereld toch ook beseffen dat daar bijzondere dingen gebeuren waarvan gepoogd wordt die uit ons zicht te houden?
Zo goed als iedere dag worden er ruimteschepen waargenomen in de buurt van het ISS ruimtestation.
Voorlopig blijft de wereld verder slapen en gelooft men het allemaal wel want er gebeuren andere, veel belangrijkere en spannendere dingen in onze wereld zoals Frans Bauer die het carnaval heeft afgetrapt als reuze cupcake.
Ondertussen bij het ISS. Een UFO die langskomt en dat niet alleen, maar ook nog even aan en uit knippert alsof hij de rest van mensheid wil begroeten of in ieder geval de bemanning van het ISS.
Deze UFO is weer “gevangen” door een oude bekende, Streetcap1. Hieronder de video waarin je kunt zien dat de UFO “aan en uit” knippert.
Wat ook mooi is om te zien, zijn de foto’s hieronder die wij van een lezer mochten ontvangen (dank!).
De eerste is een opname waarbij je links een UFO ziet hangen. Als leek zou je denken dat je hier de maan ziet?
De volgende twee zijn ook bijzonder want deze laten de bekende sigaarvormige UFO zien vlakbij het ruimtestation.
Het is vanwege betrokken mensen zoals bovengenoemde lezer dat NASA het scherm zo vaak uit/op blauw zet, maar dat er ook altijd prachtige opnames door de mazen van het net blijven glippen.
Television Production Crew Records On Video A Hovering Large UFO Over Peru
Television Production Crew Records On Video A Hovering Large UFO Over Peru
The production team of the television show Alto al Crimen spotted a UFO hovering in the sky above Miraflores district of Lima, Peru. While filming for the show on the morning of February 10, Tuesday, several members of the production crew noticed a strange hovering object.
Peruvian Congressman and the host of the TV show Renzo Reggiardo was among those people in the production who witnessed the strange event.
The crew had just started filming Reggiardo for his program Alto al Crimen when the camera caught something that distracted the cameraman floating in the distant sky. The crew got curious about the floating thing, so they decided to postpone the filming for a few moments. They tried to take a better look at the mysterious aerial object.
The witnesses recorded the strange activity with their cameras and mobile phones.
Eduardo Chávez Guerra, one of the members of the production crew, uploaded videos of the object to YouTube. The videos appear to be recorded using a professional-grade camera and in 1080p quality. However, the UFO itself had no clear details visible in the videos. Many wondered why the production crew failed to use a tripod to get a better video of something so strange.
Some think the UFO that appears on videos is an awful computer-generated hoax, but it’s unlikely, although not impossible, that Congressman Reggiardo would let himself part of a hoax. Others believe that the UFO is a drone or a paraglider at the beach near the area. Some also suggested a plastic bag as the actual identity of the UFO. But witnesses stressed that these suggestions are unacceptable because the hovering object was too big and remained floating for nearly two hours.
UFO crashing from space over Dawlish, Devon on 10th February 2015
UFO crashing from space over Dawlish, Devon on 10th February 2015
New interesting video footage recorded a UFO while crashing from space over Dawlish, Devon on 10th February 2015.
Witness said: A craft from outer space or just a burning piece of space rubble? The intriguing video has captured the imagination of sky-watchers. This video shows the dramatic moment a giant glowing UFO appears to land in the sea off a UK beach – in a suspected METEOR strike. The footage, filmed from a fixed camera on the shore at Dawlish, Devon, shows the meteor flying through the sky before it appears to hit the water. The operator of the fixed camera later wrote posted on Facebook: “What was caught on camera the other night? Was it a bird or a plane, maybe even Superman?” Many sky-watchers took to social networks to discuss the shock sighting – with some speculating it was a UFO from outer space.
2 police officers report Mile Wide UFO over Brazoria County, Texas on 3rd September 1965
2 police officers report Mile Wide UFO over Brazoria County, Texas on 3rd September 1965
It was September 3, 1965 when they spotted the mile wide UFO with Purple and Blue Lights.
Witness said: On the back roads of Brazoria County, somewhere between Damon and West Columbia along Highway 36, they still talk about a pair of purple and blue lights. It’s the story of Brazoria County Deputy Bob Goode and Chief Deputy Billy Edwin McCoy.
Called one of the most interesting cases he has ever worked on by one of the investigators, the story of the “Virginia Giant” is actually a nickname for a pair of sightings, one of them involving an occupant, which occurred in late May 1971 outside a small rural Virginia community located near Fredericksburg. According to investigators John Carlson and Bruce Maccabee, who until recently were still gathering data about the alleged sightings, the case was hampered by the very attitude that made this “occupant” case such an interesting one — the family’s strong desire to avoid publicity — a characteristic not always present in cases involving an “occupant.” It was a dark, cloudy night that three boys and a German Shepherd had picked to camp out in a nearby field. Two of the youths had decided to investigate the sound of a car horn heard in the distance while the third youth and his dog “Lucky” decided to stay behind. Walking through the large, open field, the third boy noted that he had a strange feeling that something was behind him. He turned but saw nothing. Moments later he turned again and observed a glowing “thing” over a pond located in the open field. The object moved slowly from its position over the pond and moved towards the youth, finally stopping near the youth, and slowly settled to the ground. Before completing its descent, the object, according to the youth, extended “legs” from its underside. After the craft landed, a door opened straight down toward him and a “man” walked out. According to the witness’s description, the creature was “powerfully huge,” had long arms and was shiny in appearance. In one hand it carried a “glowing box.” The creature looked around, then started moving in the youth’s direction, who by this time was crouching in the tall grass. The witness’s dog allegedly snarled at the “occupant” and began to approach it. The creature turned around in a “stiff, bouncing fashion” and returned to his craft. The door of the craft closed and about ten minutes later the craft “just lifted off.”
The witness was found a few minutes later still crouched in the grass and apparently in shock by his two fellow campers. The witness told his companions of his encounter and all three quickly returned to their homes. Two nights later another sighting occurred in the same vicinity. While the second sighting did not involve an occupant, it did add credence to the first sighting, according to the investigators, because of the large number of witnesses and the similarities in description of the UFO. Two sisters of the youth who reported the “occupant” were returning home from a night class along the family’s long, winding driveway when they became aware of a humming sound and red lights apparently coming from above their car. Almost immediately, according to NICAP’s file on the case, the car’s engine stalled, the headlights went out, and the car radio went off. From inside the car the girls said they could see a disc-shaped, glowing white object hovering approximately 50 feet above their tree-lined driveway. After about five minutes the girls were able to start the car and race the remaining few yards towards home — as they did, the craft continued to follow them. Attracted outside by the sounds of a car racing up the driveway, two brothers rushed outside to investigate and observed a “gigantic saucer-shaped thing” following their sister’s car up the driveway. The object followed the car up to the house and continued to hover above it for a few minutes before finally drifting off and out of sight over the horizon. – NICAP (1971)
The witness was traveling along East Lake Road in Palm Harbor, FL, on February 5, 2015, when the hovering boomerang-shaped UFO was seen. Pictured: Palm Harbor, FL. (Credit: Google)
A Florida witness at Palm Harbor reported watching a hovering, boomerang-shaped UFO with three bright white lights, according to testimony in Case 63122 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The witness and his wife as a passenger were driving northbound along East Lake Road and approaching a stop light when the object was first seen on February 5, 2015.
“I looked up at approximately 70 degrees and noticed a series of three bright, white lights,” the witness stated. “There were no red aircraft lights.”
There was a 10-second gap when the object was obscured by trees – but during the second sighting it again appeared to be hovering. Pictured: Palm Harbor, FL. (Credit: Google)
As the witness vehicle moved toward the object, trees obstructed their view. But another 40 yards later, they saw the object again.
“The object reappeared approximately at the same location where it was first sighted, indicating it had not moved from the point where it was first sighted 10 seconds before.”
The object again seemed to be hovering in a stationary position in the sky under 500 feet and less than 500 feet from the witness.
“There were no flashing or colored lights. There was no fuselage, only a boomerang-shaped wing with a white light at the apex and one on each wing tip.”
The witness moved when the light changed and they circled back in about three minutes only to see that the object was gone.
“I probably could have subtended the object with my extended hand. This is not a familiar flight path. It was dark except for street lights and a full moon which did not interfere with the sighting, however, it may have served to back light the object and make the silhouette of the wing easy to see. The lights were large in proportion to the actual wing they appeared affixed to, making the proportions different than a passing aircraft. It was over in about 10 seconds or less, but it was really cool.”
The entire sighting lasted approximately 10 seconds. Pictured: Palm Harbor, FL. (Credit: Google)
Palm Harbor is a community in Pinellas County, Florida, population 57,439.
Florida is currently a UFO Alert Level 5 – with 1.92 sightings per million population based on MUFON January 2015 statistics. Florida received a total of 37 UFO reports in January.
The UFO Alert Rating System is based on five levels – 1 through 5 – where states with 4.01 or higher reports per million residents are rated an Alert 1; 3.01 – 4.0 reports are an Alert 2; 2.51 – 3.0 are an Alert 3; 2.01 – 2.5 are an Alert 4; and those states with 2.0 or lower are rated an Alert 5.
Please remember that most UFO sighting can be explained as something natural or man-made. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.

Obama advisor still frustrated by his inability to force UFO file disclosure
Obama advisor still frustrated by his inability to force UFO file disclosure

John Podesta has concluded his service as Counselor to President Barack Obama.
In January 2015, he announced that he would be stepping down from his White House position to work with Hillary Clinton on what many suspect to be a presidential campaign.

On Friday, February 13, Podesta posted on Twitter, “My last day as Counselor to President Obama. It’s been a tremendous privilege to serve a great President and the country for this last year.” But, more interesting is his Tweet that reveals his “biggest failure of 2014,” which he says was “not securing the disclosure of the UFO files.”
Podesta is a known sci-fi enthusiast and big fan of the TV show The X-Files. But his interest in the UFO subject goes beyond simple sci-fi TV show fandom.
He served as Bill Clinton’s Chief of Staff, and was charged by the administration with the task of declassifying millions of government documents. Podesta even spoke at a press conference at the National Press Club in Washington, DC about the importance of declassifying UFO files. He stated, “It is time for the government to declassify records that are more than 25 years old, and to provide scientists with data that will assist in determining the real nature of this phenomenon.”
Although Podesta’s Twitter post about his inability to force UFO disclosure being his “biggest failure” was likely made in jest, he remains a proponent of government disclosure. After trying with Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, maybe he’ll have more luck under Hillary’s administration.

UFO mania: Who lives on Titan?
UFO mania: Who lives on Titan?
Cassini-Huygens landing photos. Many astronomers and astrobiologists think that Titan – with its thick atmosphere of methane and liquid hydrocarbon lakes – could harbor some form of life. 50% larger than Earth’s moon and 80% more massive, Titan is an analog to the early Earth. Take a look at this video:
A minuscule metal object was discovered by a team of researchers at the University of Buckingham and say that it is of alien origin and may be a micro-organism deliberately sent by extraterrestrials to create life on earth.
“One theory is it was sent to Earth by some unknown civilization in order to continue seeding the planet with life,” Wainwright hypothesizes.
“This seeming piece of science fiction — called ‘directed panspermia’ — would probably not be taken seriously by any scientist were it not for the fact that it was very seriously suggested by the Nobel Prize winner of DNA fame, Francis Crick,” said Wainwright.
Panspermia is a theory that suggests life spreads across the known physical universe, hitchhiking on comets or meteorites.
The idea of directed panspermia was suggested by Crick, a molecular biologist, who was the co-discoverer of the structure of DNA in 1953. Twenty years later, Crick co-wrote — with biochemist Leslie Orgel — a scientific paper about directed panspermia.
The abstract of their manuscript states:
It now seems unlikely that extraterrestrial living organisms could have reached the Earth either as spores driven by the radiation pressure from another star or as living organisms imbedded in a meteorite. As an alternative to these nineteenth-century mechanisms, we have considered Directed Panspermia, the theory that organisms were deliberately transmitted to the Earth by intelligent beings on another planet.
We conclude that it is possible that life reached the Earth in this way, but that the scientific evidence is inadequate at the present time to say anything about the probability. We draw attention to the kinds of evidence that might throw additional light on the topic.
In contrast to what Crick-Orgel speculated about in 1973, four decades later, a team of scientists, led by astronomer-astrobiologist Chandra Wickramasinghe of the Buckingham Center for Astrobiology, announced they had found fossils with biological properties attached to a meteorite (check out the slideshow at the bottom of this story) that fell in Sri Lanka.
Of course, these controversial claims bring forth the skeptical side of science.
In the case of the meteorite fossils, astronomer Phil Plait wrote that the scientists didn’t do a good enough job convincing him there were actual fossils in that meteorite. Wainwright and his team launched balloons nearly 17 miles into Earth’s stratosphere, and when they examined the material collected by one of the balloons (like the one pictured below), they discovered a small crash mark which indicated to them that the microscopic, circular object didn’t simply land softly.
“On hitting the stratosphere sampler, the sphere made an impact crater, a minute version of the huge impact crater on Earth caused by the asteroid said to have killed off the dinosaurs,” Wainwright said.
Even with this more recent discovery of a tiny globe found lodged into a high-flying balloon, the alien space seed proponents know they have a long way to go before that can be proven and accepted by the scientific community.
“Unless, of course, we can find details of the civilization that is supposed to have sent it in this respect, it is probably an unprovable theory,” Wainwright conceded.

'Vallende ster' ontploft boven Nieuw-Zeeland - HLN.be
'Vallende ster' ontploft boven Nieuw-Zeeland - HLN.be
Bron: Huffington Post, Twitter, The New Zealand Herald
video De nachthemel boven Nieuw-Zeeland is woensdag opgeschrikt door verschillende explosies en een lichtspel. Volgens lokale experts ging het om een ontploffing van een meteoor in onze dampkring, schrijft The New Zealand Herald.
Honderden Nieuw-Zeelanders van over heel de eilandengroep waren eergisteravond getuige van de natuurpracht, meldt Huffington Post. Josh Sherbone filmde de ontploffing per toeval met een dashcam en zette de beelden op YouTube.
Auckland CDEM
Noel Manford van de Palmerston North Astronomical Society schat dat de meteoor, vallende ster in de volksmond, de omvang van een cricketbal had en met een snelheid van bijna 40.000 meter per seconde onze dampkring binnenvloog.
"Zeker geen bliksem" De civiele bescherming van Auckland stuurde na het fenomeen omstreeks 22 uur deze tweet de wereld in: "De flits vanavond was zeker geen bliksem, hoogstwaarschijnlijk een meteoor." Astronoom Grant Christie vermoedt dat de vallende ster op ongeveer 30 kilometer boven onze aardbol uit elkaar spatte.

Valentine’s day this year is going to be on a Full Moon. Although the Americanized date picked out to celebrate love might not have much to do with that after all but several saints who were honored and remembered on that day. The full moon is a symbol of power and on this day at its highest peak it is going to be important to remember to honor each other with respect, passion and goodwill. We can remember to value each other all year long but on this date we can recognize and acknowledge the love we have for those around us. Below, I want to share some beautiful stories of love.

ST. VALENTINE'S DAYby Pat Regan.
The early Church was highly skilled at transforming the spiritual loyalties and traditions of the Pagan populace over to the new intolerant monotheistic credo. Elated Pagan spring festivities, relating to love and desire, came under the iron-fisted conversion remit of the sexually-repressive Church. Therefore, let us explore this matter in more detail.

WHAT ARE YOU GIVING YOUR SWEETHEART FOR WEREWOLF’S DAY?by Brad Steiger .
The early Christian Church fathers (circa 270 A.D.) were well aware of the popularity of a vast number of heathen gods and goddesses, as well as the dates of observation of pagan festivals, so they set about replacing as many of the entities and the holidays as possible with ecclesiastical saints and feast days. Mid-February had an ancient history of being devoted to acts of love of a far more passionate and lusty nature than the Church wished to bless, and the bishops moved as speedily as possible to claim the days of February 14 through 17 as belonging to Saint Valentine, a courageous martyr to the ties that bound couples in Christian love.

UFOLOGY - Challenging More Clichésby Nick Pope.
In last month’s column I examined various clichés, tropes and often-repeated mantras, debunking a few myths and misconceptions, and probably upsetting a few people in the die-hard debunker and true believer camps alike. But the whole purpose of this column is to be provocative and to stimulate lively debate, so with that in mind, this month I intend to put some more claims under the microscope and see if they hold up to scrutiny. With apologies, as with last month’s column, this may make uncomfortable reading for some. More....
THE CORRELATION BETWEEN SUNSPOT ACTIVITY AND ET VISITSby Steve Pearse.
We currently have at least three indications that 2016, and the years immediately following, have the potential to bring another chance for open Contact between extraterrestrials and humanity. If world governments don’t repeat the insane mistakes they made during the 1940’s and 1950’s – a big if – and we can get a grip on our rapidly declining geopolitical situation, the door may open again for humanity to meet at least some of the Visitors we know are out there.

THE UFO PHENOMENON IN SALTA, ARGENTINA - A SUBSTANTIATED STORYby Scott Corrales.
Northern Argentina has a long history of enigmas, a mysterious angle that constitutes an important part of local culture. In recent years, one mystery has repeated increasingly in the skies of Salta - UFO sightings. Reports repeat themselves, some surprising, other questionable, some of them including the so-called "encounters of the third kind". In cities or lonely places, jungles, rivers and dams, the UFO phenomenon has become gradually more frequent. Moreover, the massification of technologies able to record events of this sort give us the possibility of gaining access to a variety of accounts. More...

Jupiter Ascending is a science fiction movie with a Cinderella theme. The main actress Jupiter Jones is played by Mila Kunis. The role of her star crossed lover is played by Channing Tatum. Jupiter is an Earth born girl who lives life out as a parentless girl adopted by an astrologer who predicts incredible things for her because she has the sign of Jupiter rising in her charts at 23 degrees. Jupiter finds this hard to believe because she is a maid and cleans houses for a living, a very lowly job in America. More...
STRANGE BROADCASTS OF UNKNOWN ORIGIN HEARD WORLDWIDE SINCE THE DISCOVERY OF RADIOby Tony Elliott.

PARALYZING UFOS AND SECRECYby Steve Erdmann.
"There are two things I know with certainty about the UFO phenomena. One is that the phenomenon is real,” says author Robert Salas, “that is, real objects of unearthly origin are visiting our airspace. My second certainty is that the phenomenon of people being abducted by sentient beings who are operating these unknown craft, is also a reality. These conclusions do not come from hypotheses, guesses, theories, or concepts that I used to convince myself of these realities. They come from my life experiences.” More...
ORFEO ANGELUCCI'S SECRETS OF THE FLYING SAUCERS – A RETURN TO THE DAYS OF THE EARLY CONTACTEESby Sean Casteel.
After covering UFOs, alien abduction and many other paranormal subjects for over 25 years, I thought I’d seen it all. But once again, publisher, editor, writer and talk show host Timothy Green Beckley has shown me just how wrong that assumption can be. Tim recently sent me a book that contains two full-length tomes by the late contactee Orfeo Angelucci combined in one volume. Though the books were originally published in the 1950s, they contain so much that is relevant and precious about UFO contact and the mortals who come under their purview for reasons they themselves do not comprehend.

PARANORMAL HAWAII - THE GHOST OF MADAME PELEby Paul Dale Roberts.
The cliffs of Makapu’u offer a scenic view of the eastern shores of Oahu. It is there that Madame Pele last stayed before moving on to the Big Island. People sometimes see an old lady in white hitchhiking along the highway there (as well as the Pali highway). That is the human incarnate form of Madame Pele and it is said you need to show her respect and kindness by offering her a ride. She will usually go along for the ride before disappearing into thin air. Failure to offer the ride may have serious implications. Makapu’u is also a place known for the Akua’lele (flying god). These are fireballs said in lore to be powerful conjured up spells from one who practices the ancient ways of Hawaiian sorcery. More...

In last month’s column I examined various clichés, tropes and often-repeated mantras, debunking a few myths and misconceptions, and probably upsetting a few people in the die-hard debunker and true believer camps alike. But the whole purpose of this column is to be provocative and to stimulate lively debate, so with that in mind, this month I intend to put some more claims under the microscope and see if they hold up to scrutiny. With apologies, as with last month’s column, this may make uncomfortable reading for some.
“Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m a skeptic myself.” If you’ve got skeptical credentials, it’s sensible to state them, and if someone like science writer Michael Shermer uses this phrase, and then goes on to tell you about his belief in something anomalous, that’s fair enough. But this statement, or a variation on the theme, is all too often trotted out by the most wide-eyed true believer who’s just about to tell you about their faith in some particularly dubious claim or sighting. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with being a believer, so there’s no need to falsely claim skeptical credentials, just to appear a little more discerning.
“I take a scientific approach to ufology”. Unless you routinely (and correctly) use phrases like “testable predictions”, “false-positives”, “confounding factors” and “falsifiable”, you probably don’t. What people who claim to take a scientific approach to ufology seem to be implying (sometimes correctly, sometimes not) is that their research and investigations are thorough. They may well be, but that’s not the same as scientific.
On a related issue, we have people who lie about or exaggerate their credentials when it comes to science. So we get two or three skeptical ufologists who are amateur astronomers, and not only do they misrepresent themselves as scientists, but they seem to expect their ufological peers to afford them the same respect as Galileo. Sorry, but respect has to be earned. One ufologist, who’s a college lecturer, misrepresents himself (or allows himself to be misrepresented) as a professor. Another ufologist, who’s a convicted drug supplier, once tried to bill himself as a “cultural historian”. Yet another ufologist, who runs an anti-Semitic blog and also claims that he once served in the military, would doubtless label himself as a “political analyst” if he thought he could get away with it. On this latter point, when any ufologist (skeptic or believer) claims to be ex-military, I strongly recommend that people verify their military background before even considering their UFO-related pronouncements.
“Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence”. Yes, we know.
“Extraordinary claims require extraordinary investigation”. Yes, we know that too.
“Hello, I have my own radio show”. OK, this is the one that’s really going to upset a few people, but it’s time ufology faced the facts about this, so I’m going to major on this one. The proliferation of (largely internet-only) radio shows in the field is getting out of hand. There are a tiny handful of radio shows such as Coast to Coast AM that are professionally run and genuinely reach a large audience. But there are a myriad of other shows which are essentially just one man bands; vanity projects with a host who wants to be a star, and guests who think they’re already celebrities. That’s not to say that there aren’t plenty of shows out there that are perfectly well-intentioned, where the host and guests simply want “to get the information out to the people”, to quote another cliché. However, “Welcome to the Billy-Bob Bowman Show, with your host, Billy-Bob”, followed by three hours of some guy with a blog waffling on about his theories on the New World Order isn’t going to achieve much, especially when many such shows have poor sound quality, poor production values, and considerably less listeners than they’d have you believe.
The lack of listeners is the real “inconvenient truth” here. Why do people think it is that few of these shows take calls from listeners? Post a UFO-related, internet-only radio show on YouTube, and see how many views and comments it gets. The clues are there. Related to the fact that few people tune into these shows is the fact that virtually nobody outside of the core audience of believers tunes in, and certainly not the sorts of “influencers” that these shows should aim to reach. As a personal example, I get a lot of mainstream media requests, but I’ve never once been contacted by a researcher or a producer who’s said something like “I heard you on the Billy-Bob Bowman Show last night and want to know if you’d be available to come on Good Morning America next week”. The sad truth is that outside of the alternative belief community, nobody’s listening.
Why is any of this a problem? There are two obvious reasons. Firstly, there are a lot of good people out there wasting an awful lot of time that could far more productively be spent elsewhere. Why do I say it’s time wasted? Because not only are very few people listening to most of these shows, but of those that are, most already believe the output. It’s a classic example of preaching to the choir. The second problem is that lone voices can have a disproportionate effect. I was recently asked if I could comment on the “controversy” surrounding my latest book, “Encounter in Rendlesham Forest”, and in particular, the theory that it’s part of a sinister government disinformation campaign. It turned out that the supposed “controversy” was almost entirely generated by a single individual who doesn’t like the book, appearing on a handful of internet radio shows and simultaneously making a lot of posts on Facebook. When there are allegations of systemic CIA torture, that’s a genuine controversy. When somebody doesn’t like a book, that isn’t.
The tragedy here, as I said earlier, is that so much of this is well-intentioned. Be that as it may, the time is long overdue for the UFO, paranormal, conspiracy theory and alternative belief communities to take a long, hard, critical look at the internet radio phenomenon, and ask what real, tangible benefits it brings.

Landde er een ruimteschip in de tuin van de oom van prins Charles?
Landde er een ruimteschip in de tuin van de oom van prins Charles?
Prins Charles (66) en zijn vader prins Philip (93) hebben zich in het geheim geabonneerd op het tijdschrift Flying Saucer Review, nadat Lord Mountbatten in zijn achtertuin een ruimteschip had zien landen. De exemplaren werden in een blanco envelop opgestuurd. Dat heeft de gepensioneerde Amerikaanse arts Steven Greer gezegd.
Dr. Greer (59) zei ook dat hij Charles tijdens de première van de film Star Trek: First Contact in 1996 documenten heeft overhandigd over buitenaardse ontmoetingen. De voormalige arts vertelde aan de Daily Star: “De uitgever van het blad, die voor de Britse inlichtingendienst werkte, Gordon Creighton, heeft me persoonlijk verteld dat de koninklijke familie het regelmatig ontving.”
“Prins Philip en prins Charles waren er erg in geïnteresseerd,” ging hij verder. “Hij vertelde me dat hij er persoonlijk voor zorgde dat ze het kregen. De exemplaren werden opgestuurd in een blanco envelop. Ze wilden niet dat het bekend zou worden.”
Dr. Greer voegde toe: “Dit is terug te leiden tot het object dat in de achtertuin van Lord Mountbatten is geland.” Hij kwam in 1979 om het leven door een Ira-bom toen hij voor de kust van Ierland aan het vissen was.
Greer, die in de buurt van Washington DC woonachtig is, claimt ook dat hij een brief heeft gekregen van de secretaresse van Charles nadat hij hem het dossier had overhandigd. “In de brief bedankte hij me voor het verstrekken van het materiaal en wenste hij me succes bij het naar buiten brengen van deze informatie,” zei hij.
Binnenkort wordt de nieuwe documentaire Sirius van dr. Greer uitgebracht. De film is vanaf 23 februari verkrijgbaar in de iTunes Store en komt op 9 maart uit op DVD. Een woordvoerster van Clarence House, één van de residenties van het Britse Hof, zei ‘geen gegevens te hebben over een abonnement op dit tijdschrift’.
Kijken: Filmploeg legt paars object vast in de lucht boven Lima
Kijken: Filmploeg legt paars object vast in de lucht boven Lima
In het district Miraflores in de Peruaanse provincie Lima is een ongeïdentificeerd vliegend object vastgelegd op video. Een cameraman zag plotseling een paars object in de lucht hangen. Dat meldt de krant El Comercio.
De UFO trok de aandacht van duizenden Peruanen nadat de filmploeg van congreslid Renzo Reggiardo een paars object in de lucht boven Lima had gefilmd. Het filmpje is door Eduardo Chávez Guerra op YouTube geplaatst en is in drie dagen tijd al meer dan 360.000 keer bekeken.
Reggiardo was net begonnen met opnames voor het programma ‘Alto al crimen’, toen zijn cameraman werd afgeleid door een zwevend object in de verte. Ze onderbroken de opnames enige tijd om het object beter te kunnen bekijken.
De beschrijving op YouTube leest als volgt: “Tijdens opnames voor het programma ‘Stop Misdaad’ is om 10.30 uur in het hart van Miraflores een vreemd zwevend object in de lucht gespot.” Enthousiaste toeschouwers speculeren in het filmpje over wat het kan zijn en concluderen dat het geen vliegtuig is.
Stephen Hawking Says Alien Contact Could Lead To Catastrophe
Stephen Hawking Says Alien Contact Could Lead To Catastrophe
Scientists have received a warning from Stephen William Hawking against their attempts to contact aliens and let them know that humans are here on Earth.
Efforts to beam messages from Earth have intensified in recent years in the hope to finally make contact with other intelligent beings from another planet. But renowned physicist Hawking doesn’t in favor on these attempts saying that it could result in a catastrophic event.
Hawking stressed that the alien visitation on Earth would be much like when Columbus came to America, which did more harm than good to Natives.
The Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence Institute in California has been using the most advanced telescopes to send data to nearby planets and stars.
Science advisor in the box office hit film Battleship, Seth Shostak of SETI, said that they have plans to pick star systems within 20 light years. However, NASA consultant and American scientist David Brin has issued a caution saying that the contact would inevitably transform human destiny and that the attempts should only be done if the whole world is on the same page.
John Podesta’s top regret on leaving the White House is he didn’t reveal the truth about UFOs
John Podesta’s top regret on leaving the White House is he didn’t reveal the truth about UFOs
John Podesta, former senior advisor to Barack Obama, former Chief of Staff to Bill Clinton, and future chair of Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign is offering some reflections on his most recent stint in the White House.
Number one on the list — aliens:
Podesta was out of the big time politics game briefly early in the Bush years, and lent his considerable prestige to a coalition pushing the oddball cause of greater disclosure of federal information about UFOs:
Soon afterwards, he founded the Center for American Progress which quickly emerged as a key pillar of center-left infrastructure in Washington. I worked for a while at CAP, and can testify that while there were a lot of in-house jokes about Podesta and UFOs (including an alien-themed holiday party one December) there was approximately zero institutional effort expended on the cause.
But in a personal capacity, Podesta continued to lend a hand. He participated in a couple of UFO-themed TV shows and wrote the forward to a book about UFOs that was published in 2010.
Then he went back to the White House where, once again, there was no progress on the UFO disclosure front. It’s genuinely too bad. As a former Chief of Staff, Podesta presumably has had access to highly classified information and knows what he’s talking about when he says the public deserves to know what’s in these files. I hope — though I don’t actually expect — that he’ll use his influence in the emerging Clinton campaign to push this in a more serious way.
Lockheed Martin scientist says there really are aliens and UFOs at Area 51
Lockheed Martin scientist says there really are aliens and UFOs at Area 51
A senior scientist at Lockheed Martin says there are aliens and UFOs at Area 51, and he has the pictures to prove it. However, serious doubt has been cast on the alleged alien in pictures.
Boyd Bushman worked as an engineer for over forty years, and before retirement, worked as a senior scientist for Lockheed Martin. Over the years he has done several interviews about his interest in antigravity technology, and has increasingly alluded to having secret knowledge about UFOs. His latest interview (seen above) was purportedly conducted just before his death on August 7, 2014. It was posted on YouTube on October 8.
I have been following Bushman for several years, my curiosity about Bushman was piqued in 1999 when he appeared on a Discovery Channel documentary about secret aircraft technology hosted by Nick Cook, author and writer for Jane’s Defence. My interest increased when I received an alleged polygraph test taken by Bushman in which he admitted to having worked with alien technology at Area 51.
Cook’s documentary was titled Billion Dollar Secret, and was an investigation of black projects. Towards the end he speculates about antigravity, but said he could not find any defense companies claiming to be working on it. However, there was one engineer willing to talk to him about antigravity technology. That was Bushman. In the documentary, Cook says of Bushman: “In the quest for breakthroughs in aircraft propulsion, it was Bushman’s job to look beyond the frontiers of what is known and understood.”
Bushman is vague in the interview. Cook speculated, “I felt he was trying to tell me something he was not supposed to talk about.”
Eventually, Bushman talks about his personal interest in antigravity, and in particular the work of Canadian researcher John Hutchison. He even showed Cook video of what he believed to be antigravity technology at work.
Cook said, “I was astounded that someone of Bushman’s standing should seriously discuss the notion of antigravity with me.”
I found the documentary fascinating. I never forgot Bushman’s comments, but I heard nothing more about him for several years. Then, in 2007, he showed up in a somewhat obscure documentary by David Sereda titled From Here to Andromeda. In it, Bushman discusses more of his ideas about UFOs and antigravity.
Bushman talks about his antigravity experiments and he refers to Bob Lazar, the original Area 51 whistleblower who claims to have worked on a project back engineering alien spacecraft. Bushman says he received Lazar’s tapes from the “white world,” so he can share them. He doesn’t go into any more detail.
Lazar’s interviews, and a video he made outlining the technology he worked on, can be found on YouTube. So Bushman does not allude to having any inside information. He also says many UFOs were actually high tech secret aircraft. However, towards the end of the interview he claims to know a jet fighter pilot that claims to have been the person who shot down the Roswell spacecraft. He says this person saw the dead aliens and walked into the spaceship.
In early 2008, Bushman’s name came up in conversation with a UFO researcher I was working with. She said she knew him and that he had recently taken a polygraph test in which he admitted to have worked with antigravity at Area 51, had worked on alien technologies, had examined an alien spacecraft, and had even touched an alien life form. He also said he knew Lazar.
She forwarded me an email she had received from Bushman with the polygraph results, and said it was OK for me to contact him and ask if I could share it. I sent him an email, explaining that I had seen his interviews and that I had received a copy of his polygraph test. I explained that I was working with MUFON, at the time, and that I would like to work with him to present more of this information in a manner he found suitable. His response was, “WHEN AND CONSULTING FEE?”
I replied that I was planning on sharing the interview via YouTube for free, but if he let me know what he needed I could see if I could work it out. There was no response. I then emailed him the polygraph test, and asked if it was real. I figured if nothing else, he could hopefully verify that. Again, there was no response.
Since I had not received permission, nor had I verified whether or not it was real, I never posted the polygraph test. I had sent it to researchers I trusted for their opinions, and asked them not to share it until I received permission. Although we have discussed it periodically over the years, none of us have shared it yet. However, now that he has passed, and he has done this new interview, I will post the polygraph at the end of this story in its entirety.
I believe the person who sent me the polygraph test to be a trust worthy person. I believe she really did receive it from Bushman. Whether or not it is real, I cannot say. The claims in the polygraph test are startling. However, as Bushman revealed more information over the years, the information did not remain consistent.
That brings us to the most recent video (seen at the top of the story). In this new video, which is being called his last, his story is a bit different than what is in the polygraph test. In the video, he does not claim to have direct contact with the alleged alien related projects, but instead he says he is working with a team at Area 51.
Bushman says he is in “contact directly or indirectly with Teller and his group running Area 51 and the equivalent.” Another vague statement which does not admit to being in direct contact, and it also suggests that some of this alleged work is in a facility “equivalent” to Area 51.
Either way, Bushman presents UFO photos he has received, some of which are ships that are purportedly very near the photographer, but are difficult to make out. He shows a picture of an out of focus light that he says is what the craft look like when they “power up.”

Bushman says, “I asked them to tell me about who is flying these things, and they said ‘Fine.'” He then presents a series of photographs of an alleged alien being. It looks like what one would expect an alien to look like, with a big head and big eyes. He says they have five fingers, five toes, two eyes, and webbed feet.
He explained, “They are approximately five feet, four and a half to five feet tall. They had one or two of them that were around that were 230 years old. And we have a total of at least 18 that exist and operate in our facility as Teller set it up.”

However, there is a problem with the pictures that was actually identified years ago. These pictures were first posted by Hutchison, the antigravity researcher in Canada that Bushman referred to in the Cook interview. Hutchinson posted them in 2008 (seen in the video below), and says he received them anonymously by a man he believed to be in the CIA.
Quickly, several people identified the images as looking like an alien doll that was sold at Kmart. Many of these people have posted their pictures online. It does look like the same alien.
At least a couple people have suggested that perhaps the government made a doll to sell in Kmart that looked exactly like the real alien in order to shed doubt. A bit of a stretch. Others still insist that although the doll looks very similar, it is not exact, and so the alien in the picture may still be real. Take a look and see what you think.
One picture of many of the alien from Kmart posted online.
The other problem is that these pictures supposedly came from Bushman’s insiders, but they actually came from Hutchison. Hutchison is by no means an insider, and the alien in the pictures actually turning out to be a doll sold at Kmart further emphasizes that point.
Bushman goes on to reveal more information about the aliens. He says there are two groups. One he likens to cattle wrestlers, and the other cattle rustlers. The prior are good and get along with humans, the later not so much.
He even shows a picture of what he believes to be an alien ghost. Supposedly one of the aliens died, and the man who told him this story took a picture of himself in which the alien spirit appeared.

Bushman goes on to tell the story of his friend who shot down an alien craft and stepped inside, but he says more often than not, working with alien technology is dangerous for humans. Bushman says 39 people have lost their lives trying to reverse engineer UFOs. 19 of those was during a test of the technology a year and a half ago. Although, he is a little bit vague about the details. He says, “They wanted to bring various flying craft near the UFO, and the UFO defended itself. And 19 of our people died.”
Like so many stories in the UFO field, Bushman’s is enigmatic. The whole affair could easily be written off as the delusional ramblings of an old man. The only thing that causes one to pause is Bushman’s background. Why would a high level scientist begin making up such wild stories? Did he actually work with Teller, and did he ever really go to Area 51? Or were these all tall tales told to him that he believed wholeheartedly?
Now that Bushman has passed we may never know.

UPDATE 10/29/2104:
Bob Lazar responded to an email inquiry I made as to whether he knew Boyd Bushman. He wrote:
No, I’ve never heard of him.
There were very few people who worked at S4, just a little over 20.
We all knew the names on the list – he was not one of them.

Filer’s Files #07 – 2015 Black Triangles - PART I
UFO at Paris Air Show in France video of UFO next to jet fighter on January 13, 2015
Filer’s Files #07 – 2015 Black Triangles - PART I
In special reports, this week’s files cover: Admiral Lord Hill-Norton UFOs Exist, Towers on the Moon, Black Triangles over New Jersey, Life Coming from Space during Experiment, Jordan Launches Air Strikes, Islamic State Is Not the Same as the Crusades, Michael Luckman Alien Rock’ Author Passes On, and January Statistical UFO Reports
Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over: Alaska, Arizona, California, Florida, Illinois, Kansas, Louisiana, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Washington and West Virginia.
Sightings of UFOs were also reported in: Australia, Brazil, Canada, Cuba, Mexico, Slovakia, Sri Lanka, 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.
Chuck Warren my webmaster and I send out over 20,000 plus emails each week.

Admiral Lord Hill-Norton UFOs Exist
Let us look for some of the evidence. Admiral Lord Hill-Norton
Lord Hill-Norton stated, “The evidence that there are objects which have been seen in our atmosphere, and even on terra firma, that cannot be accounted for either as man-made objects or as any physical force or effect known to our scientists, seems to me to be overwhelming… A very large number of sightings have been vouched for by persons whose credentials seem to me unimpeachable. It is striking that so many have been trained observers, such as police officers and airline or military pilots. Their observations have in many instances… been supported either by technical means such as radar or, even more convincingly, by… interference with electrical apparatus of one sort or another….”
Admiral Lord Hill-Norton, Chief of Defense Staff, Ministry of Defense, Great Britain, 1973; Chairman, Military Committee of NATO, 1974-77; quoted from his foreword to “Above Top Secret” by Timothy Good, Morrow & Co’s Quill Books.
Towers on the Moon
An astronomer was looking at the moon and was fortunate enough to catch these two towers on the edge of a crater. There are a lot of alien artifacts on the moon. That much I promise, but many are difficult to see, but can be seen if you have an infrared camera looking through a scope. This guy doesn’t, but still caught some megaliths. If you have an Ir camera, please check out the moon sometime. You will be blown away.
Eyewitness states: On January 7, 2015, two days after full moon he captured footage with 12″ Meade LX Celestron zoom with Alpha 6000 at 60fps. This looks like a huge megalith outside a stadium. Thanks to UFO Sightings
Black Triangles over New Jersey
Robert Spearing writes, “So what are flying Black Triangles? Are they military black budget programs like the rumored Auroras and TR-3Bs? Supposedly, the US Government has been working on flying triangles since the 1980s. There is also evidence we’ve been engaged in anti-gravity propulsion since the 60s. However, reports go back many decades before that and something’s not right. Are they a hostile nation’s, alien or inter-dimensional? I don’t know the answer to that but I think I just got a little closer.”
I am a MUFON Field Investigator for New Jersey. I just completed a six year study of sightings in the Garden State from January 1, 2009 through January 31, 2015. In all there were 99 reports under the searchable category “triangle” in the MUFON Case Management System in that timeframe. I painstakingly went through each case weeding out hoaxes, misidentifications and such. I included reports classified as being closed out due to “insufficient data” where the accounts were otherwise credible but were closed simply due to witnesses no longer being cooperative in the interview process. I was left with 57 good cases. I pegged those cases to Google Maps. The study results were a bit unnerving if they are not our boys!
To begin with, New Jersey is a small but representative state. Much larger states like California and Texas have many more triangle sightings which should be investigated also. NJ has two Nuclear Plants, and houses several military installations including McGuire AF Base/Fort Dix, Earle Naval Weapons Station, Picatinny Arsenal and a slew of Coast Guard Bases along the Atlantic Coast and on the Delaware River near Philadelphia. So there are some potential targets here for whoever may be interested for whatever purposes they may have.
I’ll start with power plants and military bases. Three sightings (5%) occurred within ten miles of Picatinny Arsenal. Two sightings (3%) were within ten miles of McGuire Air Force Base. One sighting (2%) was within ten miles of Hope Creek Nuclear Power Plant. Three sightings (5%) were within ten miles of Oyster Creek Nuclear Facility.
All these are low percentages and prove nothing. However, next was Earle Naval Weapons Station which registered eight sightings (14%)? Something about Earle is attracting triangles. But it is our Coast Guard facilities that really raised my eyebrows. Twenty-two sightings (39%) were within ten miles of Coast Guard Bases and many of these sightings were within four miles. So there seems to be a connection with water. For what it’s worth, Earle is quite near the ocean too.
In all, thirty-nine cases (68%) were within 10 miles of sensitive NJ installations.
Another oddity on the map was that twenty-four sightings (42%) occurred in southern New Jersey in the air corridor beginning just outside the southern delineation of McGuire AF Base’s restricted air space to the northern delineation of Dover AF Base in Delaware. However, not one sighting was reported in towns within their air space jurisdiction. In other words, they hang out between both bases but not close enough to get a reaction.
Another interesting fact was that not one of the 57 cases studied elicited a military jet attempted intercept. So were these craft invisible to radar or were they a known quantity to our radar stations? Statistically, November and August saw the highest number of sightings over six years, while May saw the fewest with one. March was the only month with no sightings. Atlantic and Monmouth County had the highest amount of sightings – nine in all. Six counties had no sightings which suggest they were of no strategic importance.
Now let’s get to the triangles themselves. Here’s where it gets even more interesting. Twenty-three cases out of fifty-seven (40%) were Close Encounters! That is a remarkable statistic for one type of UFO sighting. It is unprecedented! What would we find if we expanded our study to California and Texas? In twenty-nine cases (51%), the witness estimated that the craft was less than 500 feet in altitude. Many cases in this category actually had tree top level checked off. In 31 cases (54%) the triangle was hovering. In twenty-three of those cases (40%) they were hovering over roads or highways. By Robert Spearing, publisher www.worldufowatch.com
Life Coming from Space during Experiment
We heard a few months ago about Russian astronauts cleaning the space station solar panels and finding extremely large plankton growing on them.
Milton Wainwright claims to have found a life in space. Milton and his team conducted an experiment where they sent a weather balloon fitted with 27 pockets to space. In one of the pockets they discovered living bacteria which was too large to have come from earth. This may prove there is life beyond our planet? Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milton_Wainwright UFO Sighting News
Here we have a professor with further evidence from orbit of life coming into our atmosphere from space. Wainwright graduated from the University of Nottingham in the field of botany. He obtained a PhD from the same university in the field of mycology and a postdoctoral fellowship, in environmental microbiology. He is author of the books Miracle Cure: The Story of Penicillin and the Golden Age of Antibiotics (1990) and An introduction to environmental biotechnology (2011).
Mary’s Photos
Dan Johnson writes, “In last week’s Filer’s Files Robbert in Holland had captured a color photo of Mary.
I’ am not saying that what I captured on the ceiling of our living room shown at left is the same image. All that I am saying is that there is a similarity in the two photographs. Thanks to Dan Johnson
Michael Luckman Alien Rock’ Author Passes On
Author Michael Luckman recently passed away who was a great promoter of the UFO phenomena and was the director of the New York Center for Extraterrestrial Research. He wrote the controversial book, “Alien Rock: The Rock ‘n’ Roll Extraterrestrial Connection” (VH1 and Pocket Books), which claimed that many pop icons such as Mick Jagger and David Bowie had close encounters with alien spaceships. It was all the rage among celebrities, including Bono, Matthew McConaughey, Penelope Cruz, Angela Bowie, Steven Spielberg, and Pete Bennett, legendary promotion manager for the Beatles.
From Elvis to the Beatles, from Michael Jackson to Marilyn Manson, rock stars claim to have seen, communed with, been inspired by, and sometimes even descended from extraterrestrials. The birth of Elvis was marked by the appearance of a mysterious blue light over his house. In August 1974, John Lennon spied a UFO from the window of his penthouse and regularly read UFO magazines and felt that he might be a UFO abductee. ”
Mick Jagger and Marianne Faithfull encountered a luminous cigar-shaped mothership while camping in the English countryside in 1968. Jimi Hendrix told a friend, “I am a spiritual messenger, sent here from another place.”
Alien Rock provides a fascinating new perspective on the long, strange trip that is rock ‘n’ roll history, and suggests that, wherever the road takes us, we may not be traveling alone. He recalled his meeting with Michael Jackson and their discussion about his interest in UFOs.
He told me about the King Elvis Presley who felt he was born under a Blue UFO. Bowie owns 1,000 UFO books and had a telescope mounted on the roof of his limousine to search for aliens.
Michael Luckman often asked me to speak at his frequently held Press conferences about UFOs. He was planning a series of Signal to Space concerts that will beam a musical message of peace to outer space. Michael is now likely upstairs gathering Angels to participate in a UFO concert and will be greatly missed. http://www.amazon.com/Alien-Rock-Roll-Extraterrestrial-Connection/dp/074346673X
Islamic State Is Not the Same as the Crusades
Evangelist Franklin Graham and Catholic League President Bill Donohue have condemned President Barack Obama for comparing the Islamic State’s atrocities to the “terrible deeds” committed by Christians hundreds of years ago. Obama made his controversial remarks at the National Prayer Breakfast on Thursday in Washington, D.C., while referring to the actions taken during the Crusades and the Inquisition “in the name of Christ.”
Graham hit back at Obama in a Facebook posting saying that Jesus Christ “taught peace” and did “not take life,” while the prophet Muhammad “was a warrior and killed many innocent people.” Graham, CEO of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, wrote: “Today at the National Prayer Breakfast, the President implied that what ISIS is doing is equivalent to what happened over 1,000 years ago during the Crusades and the Inquisition.
“Mr. President — many people in history have used the name of Jesus Christ to accomplish evil things for their own desires. But Jesus taught peace, love and forgiveness. He came to give His life for the sins of mankind, not to take life. “Muhammad on the contrary was a warrior and killed many innocent people. True followers of Christ emulate Christ — true followers of Muhammad emulate Muhammad.”
Obama said that the Islamic State (ISIS) was “a brutal vicious death cult that, in the name of religion, carries out unspeakable acts of barbarism.” But he added: “Lest we get on our high horse and think that this is unique to some other place, remember that during the Crusades and Inquisition, people committed terrible deeds in the name of Christ.”
Donohue denounced the president on the Catholic League’s website, saying “Obama’s ignorance is astounding and his comparison is pernicious.”He continued: “The Crusades were a defensive Christian reaction against Muslim madmen of the Middle Ages attacking Europe …
Not only is Islamic State waging war on the free and not-so-free world, it is engaging in psychological warfare. Jordan’s King Abdullah was reported by some Arabic-language news outlets to be personally leading airstrikes against Islamic State militants, however those reports were in question.
King Abdullah is a seasoned fighter pilot trained in part at the U.K.’s Royal Military Academy Sandhurst, so it was unclear if the report of his personal involvement was to be interpreted as him flying a plane, commanding the fleet, or both. That same day, Abdullah himself reiterated his vow to strike Islamic State “strongholds,” but remained vague on the details.
He said the revenge for burning Kasasbeh alive “will be harsh because this terrorist organization is not only fighting us, but also fighting Islam and its pure values.” Jordan has been an ally of the U.S. and the international anti-terror coalition since the 2003 invasion of Iraq, acting as a base of operations and contributing its own military forces at times. Kasasbeh was on a mission in Syria when his plane was downed, and he was taken prisoner.
DIA Director: Our Strategy to Combat Islamic Terror Is Not Working
Chris Wallace was joined on “Fox News Sunday” by Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn (Ret.), former director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, to discuss the new national security strategy released by the Obama administration on Friday and the growing threat of Islamic extremism.
“We are facing a form of a cancerous component of the Islamic religion which has a fanaticism to it … which is against our way of life, and they, in fact, have declared war on us,” Flynn said.
“I really do believe that when members of Congress are yelling at the White House for strategy, I we need to sit down and figure out what is our strategy going forward.”
Flynn explained that there has been a doubling or more of radical Islamic enemies over the past 10 years. He said we need to recognize that our strategy has not been working. “We need a much broader strategy that recognizes that we’re facing not just this tactical problem of Iraq and Syria,” Flynn explained. “We’re facing a growing, expanding threat around the world.” Flynn said we need to first define the enemy, then articulate a strategy that is broader than just counterterrorism. This is going to have to take 10 years, maybe an entire generation or more.Thanks to Fox News

Sightings of UFOs in the United States
Alaska Disc
Fairbanks – Standing next to the pipeline many workers noticed this flying object on August 29, 2007.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Arizona Triangle
Tempe — A strange triangular object was seen over Sky Harbor Airport on February 1, 2015. I am a graphic designer and my mother a pilot also saw it. I noticed a curious-looking craft flying silently above of the full moon about 8,000 feet a mile east of me during the Super bowl at 7:40 PM. It had one white-slightly yellow light on the bottom of it. This orange light appeared to illuminate the triangular structure of the craft. There were no navigation lights as it made a sharp 90 degree turn from north to west in seconds. A commercial jet would’ve been torn apart if it made a turn like that at that speed. I heard the thunderous sound of jet engines from behind and two military jets flew over 15 seconds behind the triangle. They were flying aggressively west in pursuit of the object, but could not make nearly as sharp a turn.
I became extremely excited and frantic and called my mother, who came outside to witness the aerial pursuit as all three flew west towards NFL Super Bowl game. The fighters lit their afterburners as we watched all three craft until they were out of view. We feel the jets had been scrambled to intercept this object. Thanks to MUFON CMS
California Blue Lights
Torrance– On February 5, 2015, I went out to my balcony to get some air and was looking west when I saw two blue pulsating orbs move up to 300 feet. Hover then descended down. I observed them doing this for about 10 minutes.
They did this three times in the course of 10 minutes. It looked close to the Redondo Beach Pier. As they went up and hovered they also changed direction and flew north just a bit then went up higher then descended.
They were a bright blue and I have photos from my iPhone and a video.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Colorado Light
Denver– I was sitting in the back yard around 10:40 Pm, on a nice clear night on February 7, 2015, and was going to take a picture of the full moon. When I looked through my camera phone I saw this enormous bright ball by the moon. The naked eye couldn’t see it but my cell phone was able to pick it up, it stayed there for close to two hours in the same position, I called my friend who lives across town and he was also able to only see it with a camera. I have never seen anything this big and was real, please see the pictures.
Thanks MUFON for letting us have a place to share our information.
Note: Smaller light is likely a reflection of the moon on the lens.
Florida Light
Miami— Around 1AM, my brother called me to see a really bright yellow-orange star on February 1, 2015. It moved in a circular motion like a helicopter and circled to where it was, and then just took off in ways aircraft can’t move. My brother thinks it might have been an alien space craft. But I am not sure. It looked like it was over where the drug dealer’s mansions are located and flew away. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Illinois Orb
Oak Lawn – I was leaving my brother’s house just after midnight near Midway Airport and saw 7 orbs like lights on February 8, 2015, and was able to capture one. I looked up and saw three weird orange like lights headed northeast that were lower than normal planes. When I looked at them it reflected a triangular light back at me.
They moved very fast and swerved around as they moved in the general direction they were heading. So the first set came in 3 then the next 4 came in sets of 2 not far off of the others. I have some video and pictures which is not very good. I could not tell if I was getting it because the phone screen was black. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Kansas Cylinder
Hanson / Burdett — I am an attack helicopter repair crewman, 15R in the Army I was leaving town via the south bridge when I noticed a pair of cylindrical objects, dark in color and lacking identifying features, flew overhead. They were at high altitude heading at 65 degrees covering an estimated 15 miles in 30 seconds. This is verified by another eyewitness who claimed they turned nearly above his town. These objects distinctly lacked wings or rotors and moved silently. The objects altered direction to heading 180 (south). Doubling their speed, they exited the airspace and were gone roughly a minute after they turned. The maneuverability entirely ruled out fixed wing aircraft, and its speed ruled out rotor wing units. Air traffic increased during the next three hours including three CH-47s and seven UH-60s that followed the craft.
The local radar tower had a radar signature that registered intermittently and signs characteristic of being electronically jammed. The radar operator was visited by the FBI demanding information about the sighting. It became apparent that cattle were missing from two owners, who lost two each. Thanks to Ken Pfeifer MUFON NJ www.worldUFOphotos.org
Louisiana Strange Alien Craft
Mandeville — I was driving east on I-12 when I noticed a small airplane making a very sharp turn at low altitude on January 24, 2015 6:26 PM. When I looked for the plane a second time, I noticed a chrome object in the sky hovering about 1,000 feet above the next interstate exit. As I got closer, the hovering object had lowered a chrome tether about 300 feet long with a small orb moving around the larger object.
I stopped at the exit and observed the object still about 800 to 1000 feet above me. After five minutes the object retracked the chrome tether and moved east increasing speed and was out of sight in less than 1 second. I called the National Weather Service, New Orleans and local airport in Slidell. No one reported any pilot’s or radar sighting. This was not a plane or a weather balloon. It defied gravity without wings or noise from engines. I have tried my best to explain this but so far it remains a UFO! NOTE: The above image is a rendering. Thanks to Ken Pfeifer MUFON NJ www.worldUFOphotos.org
New Jersey UFO that Went Behind the Moon
Delanco – I looked up in sky while taking the dog out on February 4, 2015. I could see the object was too high to be plane and flew behind the moon. It kept flying and you could see its lights were pretty and it was going moderately fast but sideways. It had red and white lights and I remember it going behind the moon then disappears. It was leaving a trail behind it. I saw ufos before when I was kid in Texas so I realized this was another sighting with the same white and red lights on it. Thanks to MUFON Thanks to MUFON CMS
New Mexico
Deming— I am a truck driver I was westbound on Interstate 10 and saw what I believe to be the border patrol blimp in the distance and took a picture and captured an image on February 9, 2015. Within 20 seconds I took a second photo of the same area and the object did not appear in the second photograph.
Twenty minutes later I observed the object again however this time it was much closer and not a light but an actual vehicle. I took two pictures of it but it did not appear in either one of the pictures.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
North Carolina Lights
Greensboro – On February 3, 2015, I was taking a couple of shots of the huge moon and when I looked at the pictures there were these light orbs. They are not refracted light and in the second shot they have moved away in a path. I took the photos myself only seconds apart and in the short amount of time the crafts moved a pretty good distance.
They are not water droplets because I took the photos with my iPhone 6 plus that was not wet or anything. They are not planets or starts of headlights these craft are invisible to the naked eye and can only be caught with a camera.
I am baffled as to what they are and why are they here? Thanks to MUFON CMS
Ohio Light Triangle
Columbus – While driving home from dinner with a friend a very odd object with three lights was observed on January 24, 2015.
Then from the one object three more appeared; then it went back to four. I was very startled but memorized by what it was and took this photo. Something similar to what everybody saw over Phoenix.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Oregon Hot Metal
Portland — I found a report of a disc seen over Portland in 1971 which has a witness testimony that matches mine almost verbatim! I am convinced we have both seen the same craft. What’s more interesting is the sightings are 41 years apart. This means the craft have been visiting us more than once over a long period of time! Check it out…http://www.phantomsandmonsters.com/2015/02/1971-ufo-encounter-ezekiels-wheel.html?m=1
Philadelphia– On the morning of December 13, 2014, just before 8 am, I pulled up the blinds and saw a beautiful moon outside and immediately got my camera to take photos. Suddenly, I noticed something strange; it looked like a strand of metallic pearls. I had seen something similar before about 10 years ago but never had a chance to take a picture. My daughter and I researched “string of pearls” and came up with results suggesting UFOs. Upon zooming the photo in, I realized that it was a string of about 26 orb-like lights.
I enjoy bird watching and taking photos of the nature outside around this time. When I initially noticed the object, I was baffled. The object was a long string of orb-like lights (initially metallic and then emitting a glowing whitish light) traveling at a slow and stead pace straight up into the sky. It appeared to disappear gradually, one orb at a time. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Tennessee Orb
Secierviille — I got up to go to work and decided to take a picture of the sunrise on February 4, 2015. I took the first pictures driving downhill from my house. Then when I got to the main road I took three more pictures when I was on road.
I stopped my truck to take the picture then two more pictures one minute later when I stoppd at the traffic light. The sun was on my left when I noticed the orb.
After I took the picture and I posted on Face book I noticed the blue- green orb that was on the right that looks like it was moving left to get away.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Texas Object
Cornudas– Next to El Paso in a small town in the south part of subdivision over big Ben Trail Mountain I experience many UFO sightings radiation at night sparks and electric statics every night. They fly and fight in the sky literally war in the sky I found big steps with small foot prints on the ground. My wife a non believer became a terrified believer one night while in deep sleep. I tossed and turned and got up and open the door and I was blinded by a sun like light 200 – 300 feet away.
I went back to sleep disoriented and in the morning I realized I had an encounter. I prayed for help and looking up at the sky I saw a round floating transparent ball that turned into a disk shape to a glowing purple blue red orange ball. I found a UFO crash site about 4000 feet from my property in Sunset Ranches, Texas. Maybe you guys can get to it before the government can get to it. I was going to keep it a secret, but I would be doing the same as the government. They seem to have led me to move there and follow me. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Virginia Object
Skyline Drive — Dan writes – “Here is, what I think, the most definitive photo that I have taken so far. Remember that I just started shooting these pictures last Friday on October 10, 2014. This photo has been magnified many times but you can still see detail in the craft.”
Other than having that same cigar shape, what do you think?
Thanks to Brother Dan
Washington Lights
Kalama– My mom, and I were driving north on I-5 to Castle Rock on January 31, 2015. It was about 7 PM when I noticed a really bright “Star” on the horizon to the east, only far too low for such intense lighting. We have seen UFOs quite often in this area, actually. It was stationary. About a mile down the road I pulled over and parked. We sat watching for 15 minutes as it emitted different colors of lighting. I took pictures of it with a Samsung Galaxy S5 Smart Phone. I took five 5 pictures and the camera malfunctioned.
It started working normally again three minutes later. When we got home I blew the images up and more show up in these pictures. I was amazed to say the least. I added another two pictures of a different object observed two days prior. Thanks to MUFON CMS
West Virginia Triangle
Weston – I was on a trip to and we stopped in Weston to show my friend the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum on February 1, 2015. As my friend and I were driving around taking pictures I took this shot by chance.
I didn’t notice it until this morning when I blew up this picture to look at the building a little better. I don’t know what it is. It could be dirt on my windshield because I shot through it. But it kind of looks like it could be above the contrail it is flying through. I would like to know what you think.
I also think it could be military because we have jets and drones that are shaped like that.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Inwood — Apparently the WV Air National Guard may have scrambled aircraft after this craft. A similar craft was sighted by over 100 witnesses in the same area about one month ago.
My report contains the video, the above photo and an audio recording of the witness. Of course the debunkers will say that this was a drone.
Drones have replaced Venus and weather balloons as the explanation for all UFO reports!
Yes, UFOs are known to cause power outages and other electromagnetic anomalies. Perhaps it is due to a strong power source causing an “electromagnetic pulse” like a nuclear bomb? Thanks to William Puckett, Director Http://www.UFOsnw.com
Worldwide UFO Reports
Australia Disc
Melbourne – This white disk was seen over Australia on February 5, 2015, with a classic disk shape that attempts to mimic a cloud. At one point it looks like a triangle craft, but I don’t believe its changing shape. Rather, it is turning and showing us different angles of itself.
The camera has trouble focusing on this, so the blur makes it look like its changing shape. That is not so. The shape never changes. A great catch by Brad Morris of YouTube. SCW
Brazil Cloud Ball
Avare – On January 31, 2015, t witness describes a fast moving object. Notice the softness of a cloud forming around it. This is a cloud orb, but caught in a sky with few clouds making an easy catch.
Case #: 63098 this is a great UFO report from Brazil. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Canada Metallic Object
Surrey B.C. — I was riding my bike from 72nd Avenue onto 144th Street when I looked up in the sky I was shocked to see this huge silver metallic object hovering over head on August 20, 2014. It was as big as three foot ball fields (900 feet) and I was feeling scared right after the experience. The ufo hovered over the trees and then disappeared without a trace. It was so big that I could see the under carriage of the UFO. I was scared because in 2013, I had experienced really bright light engulfing the whole door in the middle of the day with white light. At the bottom of the closed door was two foot shadows. I grabbed my Samurai Sword and stood my ground and opened the door but nothing was there. I looked all over the house but no one inside the house other then myself. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Scarborough– I witnessed three separate daylight sightings during January for first time. On January 14th 2015, I stepped outside at work for my morning break at 10 am, and saw a very high white glinting light. It looked almost stationary appearing and disappearing every couple of seconds at 10,000 feet + so, I began to take pictures but within a minute it was gone! I kept watching and at a thousand feet I saw and filmed another white transparent oval that was rocking left to right continuously, almost like vibrating. Suddenly there was a loud horn from a truck behind me. So I turned around to look at the commotion and when I looked up it was gone. Later I had a strong feeling and urged a coworker to come outside with me. Facing east, I noticed a bright white roundish white light at 3:11 pm, heading south towards Lake Ontario. It was directly over us fifty yards away at a thousand feet or less. Immediately I started to film but he could not see it at first until I pointed it out to him. It moved south about 70 MPH into the clouds.
The first two sightings were near stationary while the third was ‘moving‘near a straight flight path. I was quite astonished having that feeling again in seeing three separate UFO sightings in one day. I feel a strong sense that this is some form of steadily increasing contact from various levels of higher intelligences. Thanks to Paul Shishis. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sw5TIvyBJ1A
Cuba Lights
Guantanamo– I was sent this photo from a friend that does contractual work at Guantanamo prison on January 15, 2015. This photo was taken last month as the sun was setting. He sent it to me and removed it from his phone before they went through the clearance area.
Apparently they see these things all the time, and this silent object was moving about three miles away very fast and surrounded by a helix form around the outside. Apparently they see these things literally every day down there. So you guys get the photo and he can keep his job. Thanks to MUFON CMS
France Air Show
Paris Air show — Looking at this Air show footage it’s easy to miss the UFO in all the awesome shots of these jets on January 13, 2015. But at 2:47 into the video you will see the UFO move from left to right of the screen. It is long and small and thin.
This object comes extremely close to the jet, threatening the safety of the craft. The pilot seems oblivious of the UFO, because of its incredible speed.

Tepotzotian– On February 2, 2015, this photo was taken of a classic UFO, the type often seen in photos of 1950-60 reports.
This one has several layers, two on the top and two on the bottom.
It’s difficult to make out the size, but probably has only 2-3 occupants or could be a drone. It is strange how UFOs frequent Mexico more than the rest of the world.

Galanta – Red lights were seen in a small town Èierna Voda, near to Galanta on February 7 2015. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Sri Lanka Orbs
Gampaha Yamaha– On August 21, 2011 after getting my dinner I looked at sky and saw a UFO at about 8 pm in the southern sky. I saw a star like thing blinking very rapidly and noticed it moving here and there. Sometimes it glows very brightly with rapidly changing blue, red, and white lights. I shouted for my family to come and they were excited seeing the object. I got my digital camera and took lots of photos, but only few captured the object. This object flew up and down, right and left in a random manner. I think the object was at a high altitude because the clouds caused it to disappear for a short time and reappear. It maneuvered around us for 45 minutes until 8.45 pm the rain clouds came. When I zoomed in I saw a red colored spot on one photo and four black dots around a white spot on another. Thanks to MUFON CMS
United Kingdom ISS
Observing the International Space Station (ISS) live feed recording using FRAPS, I noticed a light source track at same speed as ISS but under cloud cover that eventually it disappeared. The light source caught my attention: Was visible under the cloud cover that is normally no higher that 12 Km above the earth’s surface… and the ISS is around 220 Km. So I guess the object was about 210 Km from the ISS, but behind the cloud cover. As the distance probably was 220 Km from the ISS then it must be VERY LARGE!! As the object was keeping up speed with the ISS which travels at 17,000 Km/hr the object must have been traveling at the same speed 17.000 Km/hr… WOW can you guys explain it? Thanks to MUFON CMS

Peruvian UFO sighting supports extraterrestrial embassy campaign, Raelians say
Peruvian UFO sighting supports extraterrestrial embassy campaign, Raelians say
Peruvian UFOsightingsupports extraterrestrial embassy campaign, Raelians say
Right when Raelians were holding a press conference in Lima and describing their plan to build an embassy for extraterrestrials, a UFO was hovering nearby over Lima’s Miraflores neighborhood, according to a statement released today by the International Raelian Movement (IRM).
“News of this UFO, seen from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on February 10, spread throughout Peru,” said Raelian Guide David Uzal, who leads South America’s Raelian Movement. “It hovered over 2 hours, long enough for a TV crew from ‘Alto al Crimen’ to film it.” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFQYUYOubqc).
The timing of the UFO’s appearance isn’t a coincidence, Uzal declared.
“It’s much more than an amazing UFO sighting,” agreed Raelian Guide Erich Rever of the Peruvian Raelian Movement. “This UFO appeared right when we held a press conference to present our embassy project plan, which we have submitted to the Peruvian government. Peru must be dear to our extraterrestrial creators, who lived here in ancient times and left many traces, so we’re asking the government for permission to build the embassy here. It’s a wonderful opportunity for Peruvians to understand their past and, more importantly, to consider receiving our creators, the Elohim, who were taken for gods by our ancestors and now ask to be welcomed back. We’re hoping the Peruvian government will receive their request loud and clear!”
UFOsightings have often occurred during Raelian activities.
“It’s common to see them over the Raelian village in Burkina Faso, West Africa,” Uzal said. “They were also seen over a Canadian compound when Rael was living there. Lately, many sightings have been made in China, where the Raelian community is developing quickly.”
But the Miraflores UFO appearance is special, he said.
“Raelians participating in our first South American Happiness Academy next week in Ricardo Palma hope the Peruvian government will approve our embassy plan, and they’re thrilled by this timely support from the Elohim,” he explained. “Raelians from many countries are here to participate in the Academy and support our embassy effort.”
The Raelian Movement will hold a press conference about the significance of the Milaflores UFO at 7:30 p.m. on Thurs., Feb.12, at the Hotel Boulevard, Avenida Jose Pardo 771, Lima. A publicconference will take place at the same location on Saturday, Feb. 14, at 10 a.m.
The man who alerted the world to Area 51 is talking to a group of UFO believers in Arizona.

In 1989, the world was given a glimpse into a secretive military installation in a remote swath of the Nevada desert, commonly known as Area 51.
With one interview, Bob Lazar, a physicist who worked at the military research site, made Area 51 a household name and raised questions about what’s really going on out there.
Lazar told investigative reporter George Knapp there were nine saucers located in a hangar that was built to blend in with the surrounding desert.
Lazar was thrust into public scrutiny, and there are people who believe he made up the entire story. In a 25-year anniversary interview with Knapp, Lazar said he wished he had never done the interview.
Knapp, a longtime reporter with a raft of journalism awards, including two Peabodys – the TV equivalent of a Pulitzer Prize – has also done his own research.
Knapp produced and directed a series of documentaries, “UFOs The Best Evidence,” which presents information from scientists, journalists and other researchers about UFO sightings and government cover-ups.
Even before Lazar started talking about Area 51, Knapp started pursing the topic and has always treated it like he does any other story.
“I’ve tried to approach it like any other news story,” Knapp said, “That is what it has always been to me. It’s not a campaign. It’s a news story and it’s a really good news story.”
The skepticism of his colleagues is one of the reasons he has stayed focused on the often-maligned topic. Although he admits much of what is talked about in the field is “complete nonsense,” he believes there is at the very least intriguing evidence.
Col. John Alexander, Ret., who authored “UFOs: Myths, Conspiracies and Realities,” agrees there is evidence of life outside the planet, but looking into it is “not a career builder.”
They both point out that many Americans and respected scientists believe in extraterrestrials but the science establishment does not, which shuts down research on the topic.
“I think we need to do this research without risk of losing your reputation and livelihood,” Alexander said.
The topic is a difficult one not only because of the almost religious zeal that supporters bring to it, but also because the pieces do not always fit together.
“You always come up with conflicting data and scientists frankly don’t like that,” Alexander said.
Knapp agrees the evidence of extraterrestrials exists. He points to a paper trail of documents and studies done by military and intelligence agencies.
“Those documents paint a pretty dramatic picture that they do take this stuff seriously, or they did at one point, that they do have a pile of information that they can’t explain,” Knapp said.
But he doesn’t believe there is one central figure or agency that is suppressing information.
In the end, despite his interest in the topic, when asked if he has personally seen a UFO, Knapp replied, “Not that I can remember.”

The truth about ET visits is out there somewhere
The truth about ET visits is out there somewhere
EXTRA TERRESTRIAL ... has ET ever paid us a visit?
Sceptics often make patently indefensible claims about alien visitation.
One recently said: “There is absolutely no evidence that we have been visited by ET. ET never went home. He never left it.”
It’s a witty one-liner, but a silly one nevertheless.
Ask most scientists if they believe that life could exist elsewhere in the universe, and they’ll answer in the affirmative.
Ask them if some other-worldly civilisations may be thousands if not millions of years ahead of us technologically, and they’ll generally assent to that too.
However, when you ask them whether some of those advanced civilisations may have mastered interstellar spaceflight at faster-than-light speed they become a little more cautious.
Nevertheless, many will begrudgingly admit that it might just be possible.
As one physicist told me: “We don’t know how to do that yet, but we might be missing something ... who knows?”
But here’s the crunch question: when you ask them whether those space-travellers may have actually visited Earth, they inevitably shift uncomfortably and say, “No, there’s no evidence of that.”
It seems strange. If ET exists, and there is no plausible reason to deny that they may have developed the means to travel from their world to ours, by what logic can we then deny that it might have happened in reality?
If ET could travel to other worlds, how do we know he hasn’t, and how do we know he hasn’t travelled here?
As I’ve said before, it’s simply impossible to assert that no evidence of ET visitation exists.
How could any individual make that determination unless they had visited every square inch of our planet and examined it?
I have no problem with rational sceptics who simply state they’ve never seen the evidence, but I have a big problem with those who assert there is none in existence.
It’s an assertion that patently cannot be proven.
But some do know the truth:
“Sightings of unexplained objects at great altitude and travelling at high speeds in the vicinity of major U.S. defence installations are of such nature that they are not attributable to natural phenomena or known types of aerial vehicles.” (Dr. H. Marshall Chadwell, former assistant director of the CIA’s Office of Scientific Intelligence.)
“At no time, when the astronauts were in space were they alone: there was a constant surveillance by UFOs.” (Scott Carpenter, astronaut).
“I know other astronauts share my feelings... we know the government is sitting on hard evidence of UFOs.” (Gordon Cooper, astronaut).
“We have contact with alien cultures.” (Dr. Brian O’Leary (astronaut).
“I’ve been convinced for a long time that the flying saucers are real and interplanetary. In other words we are being watched by beings from outer space.” (Albert M. Chop, former Deputy Public Relations Director at NASA).
These are just a few quotations plucked from hundreds which indicate that intelligent, influential and knowledgeable people are now acknowledging that we have been visited by extraterrestrial beings.
Now it’s just possible they could all be lying, but even the most intransigent sceptic would have to acknowledge that it is highly unlikely. (www.gravitywarpdrive.com/UFO_Testimonies.htm ).
Whether or not they acknowledge that there is indeed scientific evidence to prove ET visitation has occurred, they’d surely have to admit that such powerful testimony can’t simply be ignored.
If hundreds of people of the same calibre were to come forward and say they had incontrovertible evidence that a nuclear power station was about to explode with catastrophic consequences, do you think for one minute that they would be ignored? You bet they wouldn’t.
The only reason that such powerful witness testimony is being kicked to the sidelines is because noisy sceptical voices don’t want to listen.
Of course, those who wish to see the truth about ET kept a secret are more than happy to encourage that practice.
This is from Sergeant Clifford B. Stone (US Army) who belonged to a secret ET Retrieval Team: “We have contact with aliens – not originating from some foreign country, but from some other solar system...and I have been a party to that.”
Next week, in the last of this three-part series, I’ll be asking why the governments of the world have made such strenuous efforts to keep the truth about alien visitation secret...

Home » Amazing » UFO And Alien Egyptian Artifacts Discovered In Jerusalem Kept Secret By Rockefeller Museum UFO And Alien Egyptian Artifacts Discovered In Jerusalem Kept Secret By Rockefeller Museum
Alien and UFO circles are abuzz with claims of remarkable ancient Egyptian artifacts discovered in the former Jerusalem home of the famous Egyptologist Sir William Petrie, items that “could rewrite ancient Egyptian history” and indeed the history of the world.
A YouTube video released by the website Paranormal Crucible purports to show ancient Egyptian sculpture artifacts originally found in the “Giza complex,” but reportedly taken away from Petrie’s Jerusalem home by representatives of the Rockefeller Archaeological Museum shortly after they were found, according to the website UFO Sightings Daily.
According to the Shepard Ambellas, editor-in-chief of the “alternative news” website Intellihub News, the alien Egyptian artifacts were discovered hidden in a secret room behind the Egyptologist’s bookcase. Petrie had apparently found proof of extraterrestrial life on Earth before he died in 1942, but chose to hide them away in his Jerusalem home. Now that the Rockefeller Museum has taken possession of the artifacts, alien and UFO pundits fear they may never be accessible to the public.
However, Ambellas claims that some of the relics may be seen at the Petri Museum of Egyptian Archaeology in Malet Place, Camden, near Gower Street, London.
The Inquisitr was able to confirm that the prestigious Petri Museum of Egyptian Archaeology has in its possession a vast collection of ancient Egyptian and Sudanese artifacts, including ancient Egyptian “firsts,” such as the “oldest linen” and “oldest dress” from ancient Egypt (5,000 B.C.). The museum also displays lion sculptures from the temple of Min in Koptos and the earliest known products of metallurgy from the ancient civilization. However, The Inquisitr was unable to confirm that the museum has on display “alien Egyptian artifacts” recovered from a secret room in Petrie’s former home in Jerusalem.
But believers will assume that the more sensitive relics of alien origins are being kept from the public.
Ambella claims that the alien Egyptian artifacts allegedly found in Petrie’s former Jerusalem home, which link the ancient Egyptian civilization to an advanced ET civilization, include two mummified bodies less than four feet in height. Although dwarfs and pygmies captured in the interior of Africa were held in high esteem as “celestial beings” in the Old Kingdom era of ancient Egypt and served in high positions, Ambella speculates that these four-foot creatures are “possibly alien in nature,” and thus literally of “celestial” origins.
Dwarfish Figures In Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyph Stone
Details of the physical features of the mummified bodies appear to support the suggestion that they were “possibly alien in nature.” According to Ambellas, the skeletons have stereotypical alien “elongated heads, large eye sockets, and long spinally arms.”
The Aliens Have “Elongated Heads, Large Eye Sockets, And Long Spinally Arms.”
Equally interesting were the “highly advanced” mechanical devices, including a disc of gold with a transparent top found with the alien bodies. According to Ambella, the high-tech devices have “an intricate mechanism which is surrounded by gold spiral tubing that has several small gold orbs and crosses attached to it.” The devices had non-ancient Egyptian symbols on them, as can be seen in the image below.
Alien Technological Gadget Could Be Navigational Device
Are these alien interstellar navigational devices? Well, they might be, judging from the fact that the relics also included stone tablets that “appear to show alien spacecraft,” according to Ambella.
This is not the first time that archaeologists have found ancient Egyptian stone tablets bearing inscriptions suggestive of alien spacecraft and other sophisticated and advanced machinery. The image below shows the famous “Helicopter Hieroglyphs” recovered from a temple in Abydos, Egypt, showing what appears to be modern aircraft.
Helicopter Hieroglyphs: The Inscriptions Appear To Represent Modern Aircraft.
Although scientists have attributed the “aircraft” interpretation of these inscriptions to the psychological phenomenon called pareidolia, the belief is widespread in alien and UFO enthusiast circles that these hieroglyph inscriptions are proof of alien pilots and astronauts who contacted ancient human civilizations and influenced the cultural and technological development of early human societies.
And indeed, the precocity of the ancient Egyptian civilization appears to make the alien contact theory credible to ET and UFO enthusiasts, who believe that aliens built such architectural marvels as the Pyramid of Giza long before the ancient Egyptian civilization emerged.
Several UFO and alien news websites reported in November of 2010 that Dr. Alaaeldin Shaheen, Dean of the Faculty of Archaeology, Cairo University, admitted, in response to a question about the ET links of the pyramids, that the ancient Egyptian pyramids are “not of this world.”
“I can not confirm or deny this, but there is something inside the pyramid that is ‘not of this entire world.’”
“I did not give such stupid statement[s] about aliens and Pyramids. As [I am] Egyptologist I could [not] say such stupid words and ideas.”
Needless to say, such denials don’t impress UFO and ET believers, who see evidence of “cover up” conspiracies when officials and academics deny revealing statements earlier ascribed to them.
UFO and ET pundits continue to debate why Sir William Petrie and his colleagues kept these remarkable alien Egyptian artifacts secret and did not release them to the “general public.”
UFO-waarnemingen met veel getuigen zijn de mooiste (Video)
UFO-waarnemingen met veel getuigen zijn de mooiste (Video)
Eén van de problemen met UFO-waarnemingen is vaak dat het maar één iemand is die iets opmerkelijks ziet.
Met een beetje geluk slaagt deze er dan in om een foto of een filmopname te maken en dan volgt meestal de voorspelbare discussie over of dat beeld dan echt of nep is.
Kortom, als je in je eentje zoiets meemaakt is het niet eenvoudig om het publiek ervan te overtuigen dat je een betrouwbare getuige bent en dat je opnames echt zijn.
De mensen echter die zich afgelopen 10 februari in de buurt van een bouwput in de buurt van de Peruaanse hoofdstad Lima bevonden, hadden dat probleem niet.
Talloze mensen namen daar tegelijkertijd een UFO waar, ongeveer recht boven de bouwput. Alsof deze aan het observeren was wat daar nu eigenlijk werd gebouwd.
Dat daar een UFO hing, daarover bestaat geen enkele twijfel. Hieronder volgen drie verschillende video’s die allemaal hetzelfde laten zien.
Het zou mooi zijn als al de mensen die meestal als eerste klaar staan om iets gezichtsbedrog of een Chinese lampion te noemen, met een verklaring komen wat daar boven die bouwput hangt.
Als die er niet is dan moeten we toch echt aannemen dat daar werkelijk een volkomen onbekend, maar intelligent bestuurd object in de lucht hangt.
En aangezien er niet één overheid toegeeft dit soort vliegende objecten te bezitten, kunnen we alleen maar concluderen dat de herkomst buitenaards moet zijn.
Horse-Shaped Object Captured On Video Near Colima Volcano in Mexico
Horse-Shaped Object Captured On Video Near Colima Volcano in Mexico
An erupting volcano caught on video would be a great footage to watch, but a webcam hosted by Webcams de Mexico shot more than the incredible eruption as its video also shows a strange horse-shaped UFO.
The Mexican volcano named Colima, located around 300 miles west of Mexico City, forced residents near the area to evacuate because of its several eruptions in recent weeks. Webcams de Mexico captured these several eruptions on video through its webcam.
Daily Mail says that one of these videos shows a dark, horse-shaped UFO. The apparent flying object has two legs. It came into view out of nowhere and disappeared moments later.
The media outlet reports that the UFO hunters believe it could be an extraterrestrial vessel. They further made reference to past sightings at volcanic eruptions in Mexico. One witness was quoted by the media outlet saying that the UFO entity has a gigantic body, and it looks like a horse floating in the sky.
It had two extremities at the bottom, a bulging middle, and a thin top, but the legs were not moving, the witness described. The Daily Mail also reports that authorities in Mexico are investigating about the UFO sighting on video.
A pair of purple and blue lights has been the talk of the town for many decades on the back roads of Brazoria County. Specifically happening between Damon and West Columbia, along Highway 36, the story of Chief Deputy Billy Edwin McCoy and Brazoria County Deputy Bob Goode has been passed from generation to generation nearly 50 years now. McCoy’s son, Kevin, recalled the excitement but scary as well. He was an 8-year-old kid that time.
The comprehensive details of the story have been part of the Brazoria County lore. Interestingly, the story also heavily mentioned in government documents.
The story in the government documents narrates that the deputies were driving at 11 in the evening from Damon to West Columbia along with a Brazoria patrol interceptor. All of a sudden the two officers saw strange blue and purple lights in the sky. They were shocked to see the lights grew bigger and more intense as they came closer to them. They were struck in fear when they saw some form of a giant spaceship, estimated to be a football field long. Both men draw nearly similar sketches of the UFO for investigators.
According to Kevin McCoy, his father firmly believed they saw a real spaceship until he died. Kevin said he never heard his father said maybe when talking about the incident. Kevin revealed that his father kept on saying that they saw something not terrestrial in origin.
Wetenschap Het voorstel van enkele Amerikaanse wetenschappers om actief contact te zoeken met buitenaardse beschavingen valt niet in goede aarde. Critici waarschuwen voor de ondergang van onze planeet.
Enkele wetenschappers van het Amerikaanse instituut Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence (SETI) hebben voorgesteld om actief contact te proberen leggen met buitenaardse wezens. Ze deden dat tijdens de jaarlijkse bijeenkomst van de American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) in Californië.
Wetenschappers van het SETI-programma 'luisteren' al sinds de jaren 60 naar het heelal in de hoop signalen van buitenaards leven op te vangen. Die passieve benadering bleef tot nog toe zonder resultaat. De onderzoekers vinden dat het intussen wel tijd is om een versnelling hoger te schakelen in de zoektocht naar buitenaards leven. Ze stellen daarom voor om actief boodschappen uit te sturen.
"Sommigen van ons in het instituut zijn geïnteresseerd in 'actief SETI', niet enkel luisteren maar iets uitzenden naar de nabijgelegen sterren omdat er misschien een kans is dat je op een ochtend wakker wordt en een antwoord krijgt", aldus de directeur van het SETI-instituut, dr. Seth Shostak, aan de BBC.
Shostak heeft ook al een idee van wat hij wil uitzenden. "Ik denk dat je veel informatie moet sturen. Ik stel voor dat we het volledige internet sturen, de servers van Google. Stuur het gewoon allemaal. Als ze dan cricket opzoeken, zien ze beschrijvingen, foto's, diagrammen... Ze zullen dat alles met elkaar verbinden en als ze echt intelligent zijn zullen ze zo cricket leren kennen", aldus Shostak. Volgens hem moeten we de nieuwsgierigheid prikkelen met interessante weetjes. "Eerlijk, wat zouden ze van ons willen weten? Willen er horen over de structuur van een waterstofatoom? Nee, dat kennen ze al. Ze willen iets te weten komen over onze rock-'n-roll."
Critici vinden het voorstel van dr. Shostak en zijn team levensgevaarlijk. Zij waarschuwen dat onze signalen de aandacht kunnen trekken van kwaadwillende buitenaardse wezens, met de ondergang van de planeet tot gevolg. Enkele jaren geleden waarschuwde de Britse astronoom Stephen Hawking al voor de gevaren van een mogelijke buitenaardse invasie. "Het resultaat zou vergelijkbaar zijn met wat er gebeurde toen Colombus Amerika ontdekte. Dat draaide niet goed uit voor de Native Americans."
Ook wetenschapper en sciencefictionschrijver David Brin verweest op de AAAS-meeting naar de geschiedenisboeken. "Historici kunnen je vertellen dat het eerste contact tussen industriële beschavingen en lokale inboorlingen doorgaans niet goed verloopt." Hij vindt het bovendien onverantwoord om zo'n belangrijke beslissing te nemen zonder eerst gedetailleerd te bekijken wat de impact van het plan zou zijn. "De arrogantie van wat te roepen in de kosmos zonder enige risicoanalyse is te gek voor woorden. Dit voorstel brengt onze kleinkinderen in gevaar." Zelfs het kleinste risico is nog te groot, aldus Brin.
Volgens Shostak is er echter geen reden om te vrezen voor de voorspelde "vernietiging" van de planeet. "Ik zie niet in waarom aliens zoiets in de zin zouden hebben", zo counterde hij aan de BBC de kritiek. "Elke beschaving die naar hier zou kunnen komen en onze dag wil verpesten door de planeet in brand te steken, weet al dat we hier zijn."
The Roswell slides are out now. Have your say - what do they show! I'll leave the voting open until the end of February. If you pick "something else," please leave a comment with what you think that "something else" might be.
"Personally, when push came to shove I voted for a hoax, but that's because I think the slides represent a human body with a deformity that the Dream Team are purposefully representingas a dead alien despite knowing better, which to me ultimately makes it a hoax, in a "meta" sense. I look forward to hearing whatyou think."
The most popular theory of our universe's origin centers on a cosmic cataclysm unmatched in all of history—the big bang. This theory was born of the observation that other galaxies are moving away from our own at great speed, in all directions, as if they had all been propelled by an ancient explosive force.
Before the big bang, scientists believe, the entire vastness of the observable universe, including all of its matter and radiation, was compressed into a hot, dense mass just a few millimeters across. This nearly incomprehensible state is theorized to have existed for just a fraction of the first second of time.
Big bang proponents suggest that some 10 billion to 20 billion years ago, a massive blast allowed all the universe's known matter and energy—even space and time themselves—to spring from some ancient and unknown type of energy.
The theory maintains that, in the instant—a trillion-trillionth of a second—after the big bang, the universe expanded with incomprehensible speed from its pebble-size origin to astronomical scope. Expansion has apparently continued, but much more slowly, over the ensuing billions of years.
Scientists can't be sure exactly how the universe evolved after the big bang. Many believe that as time passed and matter cooled, more diverse kinds of atoms began to form, and they eventually condensed into the stars and galaxies of our present universe.
Origins of the Theory
A Belgian priest named Georges Lemaître first suggested the big bang theory in the 1920s when he theorized that the universe began from a single primordial atom. The idea subsequently received major boosts by Edwin Hubble's observations that galaxies are speeding away from us in all directions, and from the discovery of cosmic microwave radiation by Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson.
The glow of cosmic microwave background radiation, which is found throughout the universe, is thought to be a tangible remnant of leftover light from the big bang. The radiation is akin to that used to transmit TV signals via antennas. But it is the oldest radiation known and may hold many secrets about the universe's earliest moments.
The big bang theory leaves several major questions unanswered. One is the original cause of the big bang itself. Several answers have been proposed to address this fundamental question, but none has been proven—and even adequately testing them has proven to be a formidable challenge.

UFO mania: Ancient Alien Cauldrons in Siberia are Real!
A team of scientists and researchers have just returned from an expedition in Siberia and the Valley of the Dead and are claiming they have found proof of at least five of the legendary cauldrons that ancient aliens supposedly built.
Ancient Aliens
A team of Russian scientists and researchers have just returned from the “Valley of Death” region in Siberia with startling claims. Lead scientist Michale Visok had this to say in an interview with a Russian newspaper on what they had found:
“We went out into the Valley of Death to really see and investigate the metal cauldrons that people claim exist there and we actually found five metallic objects buried in marsh like swamps”
Michale gave the following details about these metal objects:
They are each submerged in small pools of swamp like water that is anywhere from 2-3 feet deep. They are definitely metallic. The scientists entered each swamp and walked on top of the objects and heard metallic soundswhen striking the objects.
The tops of the objects are very smooth to the touch but there are sharp points along the outer edges.
2 of the team members got ill during the investigation.
The team consisted of 3 geologists, 1 astrophysicist, 1 mechanical engineer and 3 research assistants.
Asked what does the team think they have discovered? Could it be something built by ancient aliens like so many people believe? Michale declined to comment other than “there is definitely something weird out there, we have no idea what they are or what they were used for”.

Local UFO investigator: It's 'obvious we're not alone'
Local UFO investigator: It's 'obvious we're not alone'

Harry Willnus knows all too well that eyebrows will rise when he talks about unidentified flying objects, but that doesn't stop the retired social studies teacher from continuing his 60-year quest to see the issue become accepted by the mainstream population.
"UFO sightings are reported every day around the world and in every country around the world," said the Salem resident and former president of the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), the world's largest investigative body looking into the UFO phenomena.
Willnus, like other UFO enthusiasts ask, "Are we alone in the universe?"
That question will be the focus of his appearance on the Science Channel's show "Close Encounters." Now in its second season, Willnus will appear on an upcoming episode scheduled to air at 10 p.m., March 10. Willnus will share his vast knowledge about the highly publicized March 1966 reported UFO sighting in Dexter,. He'll be on the show again, at 10 p.m., March 31, talking about a reported sighting in Exeter, N. H.
In the March 20, 1966, Dexter case a group of people, including police officers, reported seeing an object turn from a blue green to a brilliant red to a yellow coloring. It rose 500 feet and returned to the ground, one man said.
Trying to investigate further, the officers said they went out to the far edge of the wooded area and also saw a brilliant light appear and then disappear. The officers said when they returned to their patrol vehicle, a group of people had gathered and reported seeing something similar. These witnesses said the object departed in a western direction at a high rate of speed.
Area reports
A UFO investigator, Willnus sat in the living room of his home and retold other stories of what he believes are extraterrestrial visits. Like a sighting by WJR reporter Marc Avery on Feb. 10, 1978. Avery was on his way to the airport on Interstate 275 when he and his wife saw two lights hovering over their car "for 30, 40, 50 seconds." He called the radio station and spoke on air, describing the aircraft with Warren Pierce. Willnus has the report recorded on his smart phone.
The citing was never debunked, Willnus said. In fact, two men, who were walking in the Merriman Road and Michigan Avenue area later reported they saw a similar aircraft about five minutes before Avery's report.
The U.S. Air Force investigated UFO sightings from 1947 to 1969, in Project Blue Book, which consisted of 12,618 accounts spanning nearly 130,000 pages, Willnus said. The project was discontinued, however, after a committee formed at the request of President Gerald Ford concluded UFOs weren't a threat to national security.
Sightings on the rise
Sightings have doubled in the last couple of years, Willnus said.
"This major increase shows there's something going on," he said. "It's driving the interest in the number one question: 'Are we alone?' Are there other intelligences out there?
"After studying UFOs, it becomes obvious we are not alone," Willnus continued. "I base that on the fact that there are 200 sightings every day around the world. There's pictures, photos and movies. It's not a hoax when these crafts can disappear before our eyes. Or fly at over 1,000 miles an hour and make a right angle turn – or, stop on a dime."
Willnus also refers to a case involving former Novi resident Nancy Tremaine, who had described being abducted by a UFO off Orchard Drive near Meadowbrook Road in the 1960s. Former Novi Police Chief Lee BeGole, who spoke to the Novi News last year at age 93, didn't see the UFO, but he was on duty at the police station the night the incident occurred.
BeGole said an off duty officer told dispatch he saw a strange object overhead and police dispatch took multiple calls from people who said they also saw a strange object in the sky.
If you ask your 10 best friends if they ever had a UFO experience, Willnus said, 10 percent would say, "yes."
"But, people get laughed at once they say that," Willnus said. "And then they say, 'I'm not going to share that again.'"
Not always out of this world
He does note, however, that 90 percent of reported UFOs can be explained by something other than an extraterrestrial visit. The "UFO" might actually be a blimp, a flock of birds flying at night or even the planet, Venus, because it's the closest to Earth and moves quickly.
"The other 10 percent, we're not sure what they are," Willnus added. "I think a good many of those are that we are being visited by intelligent life off the planet Earth. Look at the evidence. The evidence is, overwhelmingly, there is a UFO phenomenon that we don't understand at this time.
"I'm getting up there and I want this story to break before I pass," he said. "Some people in the U.S. government are aware we are being visited. This is a cosmic Watergate where there is a cover-up keeping this from people. The best thing that could happen is if governments, including the United States, would come out and say, 'The UFO phenomenon is real and don't panic, because they don't appear to be here to harm us.'"

UFO DISC SPOTTED OVER SUBMARINE BASE IN WASHINGTON
UFO DISC SPOTTED OVER SUBMARINE BASE IN WASHINGTON
UFO DISC SPOTTED OVER SUBMARINE BASE IN WASHINGTON
APRIL 22, 1998 …….. BANGOR SUBMARINE BASE WASHINGTON
From between approximately 2120 hrs. and 2130 hrs. (Pacific Daylight Time), one or more objects, variously described as a blue-green sphere, an oval of blue-green light, or a disc with six lights on it, was reported from multiple points throughout western Washington State. The object was reported to change direction of flight on at least three occasions, to execute a rolling maneuver on at least one occasion, to come to an almost complete stop in two locations, to reverse its general course of travel from south to north, and to change its appearance, including its color, on at least two occasions. One reliable observer witnessed the object to pass slowly over the center of Bangor Submarine Base on Hood Canal, approximately 20-30 miles to the west of Seattle, passing directly over the underground bunkers where nuclear weapons are thought to be stored. In excess of a dozen seemingly independent and reliable reports regarding the alleged sightings were received by the National UFO Reporting Center between April 22 and May 11.
Summary of Witness Reports:
1. Snohomish County, WA: A 16-yr. old male and his mother, located approximately 15-20 miles north of Seattle, witnessed a blue-green object suddenly descend from the sky, hover, and then accelerate to the south-southwest and disappear in that direction at approximately 2120 hrs. (PDT).
2. Poulsbo, WA: Larry Swanson, a former federal employee and computer specialist, who resides approximately ¼ mile from the northeast corner of the Bangor Submarine Base, allegedly witnessed a brightly lighted, disc-shaped object glide silently over the center of that military facility at approximately 2122 hrs.. The object tilted somewhat, so the witness was able to see the ventral side of the object quite clearly, he reports. A computer-generated graphic, provided by the witness, is shown above.
3. Auburn, WA: A man out walking his dog witnessed a perfectly circular, blue-green ball of light descend from north to south in the western sky at 2120 hrs. at a very high velocity.
4. Puyallup, WA: A man driving to work witnessed a striking blue-green ball of light descending at a 30-35 degree angle from north to south in the western sky at a very high velocity.
5. Shelton, WA: A young father witnessed a blue-green ball of light streak across the sky to the west of his location.
6. Oakville, WA: A mother and her two sons, driving west on State Route 12, located to the west of Interstate 5, witnessed a “disc shaped” object, imbedded in a cloud of blue-green light, streak from north to south in the western sky. The object appeared to “follow the contour” of the horizon, dipping down suddenly, and then rising up again during its rapid flight to the south. The object was reported to generate a peculiar “tail,” which streamed off the aft end of the object for a fleeting instant. All three witnesses believed they observed three lights on the top of the disc, and three lights on its ventral side, as well.
7. Steilacoom, WA: A woman witnessed a blue-green ball of light streak from north to south in the western sky at 2123 hrs..
8. Vancouver, WA: A husband and wife witnessed a blue-green ball of light move slowly from north to south in the western sky. Very peculiar appearance to the object, they reported, with a peculiar looking “mist” surrounding the object.
9. Portland, OR: A young musician witnessed a blue-green ball of light move from west to east in the northern sky from his vantage point in the city of Portland, OR.
10. Vancouver, WA: A male Ph.D. in computer science, driving north on Interstate 5 witnessed a blue-green ball of light, that seemed to him to descend vertically ahead of his automobile and hover momentarily above the highway. The witness added that he had experienced some very unusual emotional reactions to the event.
11. Yakima, WA: A law enforcement officer witnessed a blue-green ball of light moving at a very high velocity from south to north for approximately 2 seconds. During his sighting, the object suddenly changed its color from green to red. The sighting occurred at 2130 hrs., the witness thought.

UFO mania: Nikola Tesla: Time Travel Experiments
UFO mania: Nikola Tesla: Time Travel Experiment
There are places where time and space are naturally bent. An example is the strange Lordsburg Door, located near Lordsburg, New Mexico. Periodically, as the door opens, a tree stump with a human leg embedded in it is seen near mile marker 17 out on US highway 90. There is some evidence that these fluxes in space and time can be artificially induced. This appears to have been the case with the USS Eldritch, which took part in the Philadelphia Experiment on August 15, 1943.
The brilliant inventor Nikola Tesla and the theoretician Albert Einstein are both reported to have been involved in this experiment. The object was to render the ship invisible by wrapping the hull in inch-thick cable though which a high-frequency signal from an elaborate system of generators and Tesla coils was induced.
The results were disastrous. When activated, the ship generated a green fog and disappeared from Philadelphia, reappearing in Norfolk Harbor 24 hours later.
Many of the crew ended up embedded in the walls of the ship. Others became insane. Some were mercifully dispatched with a pistol shot to the head. Here is a written account from one of the few survivors of the 176 man crew.
Tesla was a genius of such magnitude that some doubt that he was actually human. Many of Tesla’s inventions, like the “free energy receiver” and the long-range “death ray” may have been suppressed to prevent the collapse of the electrical utility, coal and oil industries or for reasons of National Security.
Tesla also attempted an experiment to use the core of the Earth like a “tuning fork” to conduct “free” electricity. In the process, he melted the town generator of Colorado Springs.
At exactly the same time, an unexplained explosion in Siberia of about 15 megatons leveled hundreds of square miles of pine forests. This explosion is often dismissed as a comet or meteor impact.
After his death in New York City, Tesla’s files and notes on death rays and other matters were confiscated by the FBI. Some of the FBI files on Tesla were published on the Internet under the Freedom of information act, but these have since been removed.
It’s easy to sensationalize this strange American immigrant. He fell in love with a white female pigeon with violet eyes. He said he saw rays of light emanating from her eyes. He insisted on exactly 17 folded linen napkins with every meal.
He constructed a tower in New Jersey to communicate with aliens. However his fame rests on rock solid accomplishments: the invention of alternating current, AC motors, the first radio transmitter and receiver (two years before Marconi) and the first to harness the power of falling water to generate electricity (at Niagara Falls).

Big Bang not the start? Quantum theory suggests universe has existed forever
Big Bang not the start? Quantum theory suggests universe has existed forever
The 10-metre South Pole Telescope and the BICEP searches for echoes of the Big Bang(Reuters)
The Big Bang did not mark the start of the universe, instead there was no beginning and there will be no end, scientists have suggested.
Physicists from the University of Lethbridge in Canada and Benha University in Egypt have created a new model that applies quantum correction terms to Einstein's theory of general relativity.
Einstein's theory predicts the universe came from an infinitely dense single point that then exploded outwards – the Big Bang. However, this state – singularity – creates a number of problems for scientists, including the fact it does not account for what happened before or at the moment of the Big Bang.
The physicists have now incorporated principles from quantum mechanics that suggest the universe could have always existed in a "quantum potential". This, in turn, could have eventually collapsed in the hot explosion that was the Big Bang.
The scientists combined the work of David Bohm, who in the 1950s looked to use quantum theory to describe the shortest paths between two points on a curved surface, and Amal Kumar Raychaudhuri, who worked on the formation of singularities.
Using a quantum-corrected Raychaudhuri equation, they were able to create new equations to describe the expansion and evolution of the universe within general relativity. They showed that quantum particles can never meet or cross paths, phys.org explains.
"As far as we can see, since different points in the universe never actually converged in the past, it did not have a beginning," study author Professor Saurya Das told the MailOnline.
The authors are not saying the Big Bang did not happen - just that it was not the start of the universe. (Reuters)
"It lasted forever. It will also not have an end ... In other words, there is no singularity. The universe could have lasted forever. It could have gone through cycles of being small and big. Or it could have been created much earlier."
This idea does not, however, suggest there was no Big Bang. Brian Koberlein, a researcher at Rochester Institute of Technology, wrote in a blog post that there was some confusion over what the physicists were suggesting.
"A new paper in Physical Letters B has the popular press wondering if there was no Big Bang, but the actual paper claims no such thing... The Big Bang is a robust scientific theory that isn't going away, and this new paper does nothing to question its legitimacy."
He said they used the Raychaudhuri equation with "a few quantum tweaks" – it uses some aspects of quantum theory, but is not a complete quantum gravity model because we do not have this. He also notes the theory is basic and the idea of an eternal universe is not new.
"What the authors show is that their modified Raychaudhuri model eliminates the initial singularity of the big bang. It also predicts a cosmological constant, which is a proposed mechanism for dark energy. Their model is really basic, but this first result shows that this type of approach could work."

Why Did the U.S. Build an Uncapped Pyramid... Complete With an All Seeing Eye... in the Middle of Nowhere?
February 12, 2015 - A huge pyramid in the middle of nowhere tracking the end of the world on radar. An abstract geometric shape beneath the sky without a human being in sight. It could be the opening scene of an apocalyptic science fiction film, but it’s just the U.S. military going about its business, building vast and other-worldly architectural structures that the civilian world only rarely sees.

In the long list of modern fears, bloodthirsty aliens may not rank near the top. We have more immediate worries, from terrorism and bioengineered (or not) global epidemics to nuclear holocaust and natural disasters.
However, the notion that other intelligences exist out there in the universe is pervasive in popular culture. Mirrors to our own history, in particular colonial exploitations, aliens are often portrayed as evil invaders bent on coming here to wreak havoc.
How realistic are these scenarios, given what we know now about astronomy and the possibility of life in other worlds?
Stephen Hawking, among others, has suggested that we should be very careful with aggressive aliens — that, in fact, we should be as stealthy as possible, lest we reveal our presence and location to predatory ETs in our cosmic neighborhood.
There are three parts to this. The first concerns the existence of other worlds with habitable conditions — that is, that can harbor life as we know it. Thanks to the efforts of the many planet hunters out there, in particular the remarkable results from NASA's Kepler mission, we now know that most stars have planets surrounding them. Thousands of these planets have been identified, and, among these, several have properties similar to Earth: rocky and within the habitable zone of their main star. Although the majority of these orbit small and cooler M dwarf stars, where conditions for life may be very harsh indeed, the fact is that we should expect a few Earth-like worlds within a distance of about 1,000 light years or so.
Whether any of these potentially habitable worlds are, in fact, able to harbor life, is another story. In the next few decades, with combined efforts from the James Webb Space Telescope and the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission, as well as missions from the European Space Agency, we should know better how rare such Earth-like planets are and, with luck, have a rough idea of their atmospheric composition. We should be able to know if their atmospheres have some of the right ingredients for harboring life. (There are, however, several potential shortcomings with these missions. For a very nice review of the situation, see Lee Billings' recent article for Scientific American.)
But let's be generous and grant that there are other Earth-like planets out there with the right conditions for life. We then hit the second part of the issue: the existence of life and, more to the point, of complex life forms in one or more of these worlds. Life emerged and took root fairly quickly here on Earth, only some 400 millions years after conditions settled at about 3.5 billion years ago. It may have emerged earlier; we still don't know. This is good news for life elsewhere: If it emerged quickly here, it can't be that hard. But, in fact, we don't really know how hard it is for life to emerge.
At face value, the transition from nonlife to life seems incredibly complex. But even if it's fairly easy, what happens next is crucial: To go from simple life, consisting of unicellular organisms, to complex life requires a series of extremely unlikely events. And the unlikeliness is not only related to tough biological mutations and metabolic pathways that have to be cleared up, but to the marriage of life to the planet as a whole. We can't understand the history of life in a planet without understanding the history of the planet; the two go hand in hand. This means that for life to emerge in a planet is different from for life to evolve in that planet in a path toward increasing complexity. There is nothing in evolution that tells us that once life emerges it will become increasingly more complex. What evolution does tell us is that life is in a constant struggle for adaptation, Darwin's theory of natural selection. That accidental mutations lead to better-adapted life forms does not imply that these life forms will steadily become more complex. In other words, finding life in another planet is a far cry from finding complex, multicellular life forms, much less intelligent life forms. True, intelligence grants a huge benefit toward adaptation (selective advantage), as we see here. But it is not a necessary condition for adaptation. Just think that of the 3.5 billion years that life has existed on Earth, we've only been here for about 200,000 years.
But, again, let's be generous and grant that intelligent life forms do exist in one or more worlds within a few thousand light years from us. Should we fear them? This is the third part of the issue. We have absolutely no idea what kind of minds such intelligences would have — and of what technological stage they'd have reached. What we do know is that they haven't been here yet. Or, if they have, they left without leaving any clues. (Unless, of course, we are their creations, a topic for another blog.)
There are four conditions that need to be satisfied for us to start fearing our distant alien neighbors. The aliens must: 1. Have developed technologies that allow them to travel or send targeted probes across interstellar distances; 2. Have spotted us as a desirable destination; 3. Have intent to explore space around them (they may not share the same kind of wanderlust); 4. Have evil intents.
The search for extraterrestrial intelligence is a must. We will only find it if we look. However, given the arguments above, we should be very confident that, even if they do exist — and that's a huge if — they are very remote. From what we know now of space travel and all its difficulties — fuel, speed, radiation shielding — had the aliens the technologies to overcome all this, they would probably also have technologies that would have spotted us a long time ago, for example, by analyzing our atmospheric composition or, if closer than around 50 light years, by detecting our radio and TV broadcastings.
We are safe, at least from this kind of menace. Best we concentrate on other, more pressing ones.

UFO crashing from space over Dawlish, Devon on 10th February 2015
New interesting video footage recorded a UFO while crashing from space over Dawlish, Devon on 10th February 2015.
Witness said: A craft from outer space or just a burning piece of space rubble? The intriguing video has captured the imagination of sky-watchers. This video shows the dramatic moment a giant glowing UFO appears to land in the sea off a UK beach – in a suspected METEOR strike. The footage, filmed from a fixed camera on the shore at Dawlish, Devon, shows the meteor flying through the sky before it appears to hit the water. The operator of the fixed camera later wrote posted on Facebook: “What was caught on camera the other night? Was it a bird or a plane, maybe even Superman?” Many sky-watchers took to social networks to discuss the shock sighting – with some speculating it was a UFO from outer space.

Did you spot a UFO in the Talley area?
A LLANDEILO woman believes she may have seen a UFO flying in the skies around the town.
Lisa Woodward was driving back home on Thursday night when she spotted a strange light floating in the air ahead of her.
She said: "I saw something very strange, possibly a UFO on Talley Road heading home at night at approximately 10.10pm."
Mrs Woodward has asked if anybody else saw the strange phenomenon at around the same time.
The area around Llandeilo is no stranger to unexplained sightings. In 2013 an unidentified object was reported in the skies just outside the town.
The witness described how a circular light switched from red to white before quickly disappearing in the direction of Ammanford.
In 2011 a farmer in Llanybydder called police to report that his sheep had been abducted by a UFO.
West Wales UFO expert Gavin Davies explained that there are often simple explanations for sightings such as these, including planes or Chinese lanterns.
He said: "About 99 per cent of stuff is explainable, then that one per cent fits into the category. Is it something military or is it something else?"
Other explanations for UFO sightings include remote controlled drones, which have become increasingly popular in recent years.

Aztec, New Mexico UFO Crash Recovery of 1948
Aztec, New Mexico UFO Crash Recovery of 1948
Date: , 1948 Location: Aztec, New Mexico, United States
It was the columnist Frank Scully who first alerted the world to sensational stories of recovered flying saucers and little men in his best-selling book Behind the Flying Saucers published in 1950. Scully claimed that up to that time there had been four such recoveries, one of which was alleged to have taken place around Aztec, New Mexico, when sixteen humanoid bodies were recovered together with their undamaged craft.

On 25 March 1948, an Unidentified Flying Object was detected and picked up on their scopes by three separate and strategically located RADAR units in the southwestern part of the Unites States. It seems that [the beam from one of the radars] had some kind of effect on the central control system of the flying object, for immediately it seemed to go out of control. The following is an in-depth overview of the crash and subsequent recovery of a UFO and sixteen humanoid occupants near Aztec, New Mexico. R
NICK REDFERN uncovers the FBI’s involvement in the case and finds that, more than 50 years later, the Aztec UFO affair is anything but a closed book. R
The upcoming release of "The Aztec Incident: Recovery at Hart Canyon," by Scott and Suzanne Ramsey may spark renewed interest in the [1948 crash landing incident], and the authors claim the book will change history. The book provides new evidence about the famous incident and incorporates significant background on the Four Corners region. It is the culmination of 25 years of research by the Ramseys, including reviews of more than 55,000 documents and interviews of eyewitnesses in 27 states. R
It was the columnist Frank Scully who first alerted the world to sensational stories of recovered flying saucers and little men in his best-selling book Behind the Flying Saucers published in 1950. Scully claimed that up to that time there had been four such recoveries, one of which was alleged to have taken place around Aztec, New Mexico, when sixteen humanoid bodies were recovered together with their undamaged craft. According to Scully's informants, the disk that landed near Aztec was 99.99 feet in diameter, its exterior made of a light metal resembling aluminum but so durable that no amount of heat (up to 10,000 degrees was applied) or diamond-tipped drill had the slightest effect. The disk apparently incorporated large rings of metal which revolved around a central, stabilized cabin, using an unfamiliar gear ratio. There were no rivets, bolts, screws or signs of welding. Investigators were eventually able to gain entry. Scully was told, because of a fracture in one of the portholes, which they enlarged, revealing a knob inside the cabin which when pushed (with a pole) caused a hidden door to open. Sixteen small humanoids, ranging in height from 36 to 42 inches, were supposedly found dead inside the cabin, their bodies charred to a dark brown color. Scully was told that the craft landed undamaged, having landed under its own guidance. The craft was eventually dismantled, the investigators having discovered that it was manufactured in segments which fitted in grooves and were pinned together around the base. The complete cabin section, measuring 18 feet in diameter was lifted out of the base of the saucer, around which was a gear that fitted a gear on the cabin. These segments, together with the bodies, were then transported to Wright Field (Wright Patterson AFB). Some of the bodies were later dissected and examined by the Air Force, and were found to be similar in all respects to human beings, with the exception of their teeth, which were perfect.
New Supportive Evidence?
According to important information published by William Steinman in 1987 there is a large grain of truth in the Aztec story, and he has managed to acquire some astonishing supportive evidence. Like Scully, he is unwilling to divulge his sources, which inevitably lays him open to charges of fabrication. Steinman discovered that the Aztec disk came to earth on 25 March 1948, having been detected by three separate radar units in the southwest, one of which was said to have disrupted the craft's control mechanism. The area of impact was calculated by triangulation and this information was immediately relayed to Air Defense Command and Gen. George C. Marshall, then Secretary of State, who allegedly contacted the MJ-12 group as well as the Interplanetary Phenomenon Unit (IPU) of the Army Counterintelligence Directorate. The IPU operated out of Camp Hale, Colorado, at this time, Steinman claims, and its main function was to collect and deliver disabled or crashed disks to certain specified secret locations. The craft was recovered within hours by the IPU scout team about 12 miles northeast of Aztec. General Marshall ordered Air Defense Command to go off alert status, and the radar units were advised that there had been a false alarm. Marshall then gave orders to the commander of the IPU to organize a recovery team and contacted Dr. Vannevar Bush - the. head of MJ-12 to gather together a team of scientists to accompany the IPU to the crash site. Steinman has named these scientists as follows:
Dr., Lloyd Berkner, Dr. Detlev Bronk, Dr. Carl A. Heiland, Dr. Jerome Hunsaker, Dr. John von Neumann, Dr. Robert J. Oppenheimer, Dr. Merle A. Tuve, Dr. Horace B. van Vandenberg.
Four of these scientists, it will be noted, were members of the original MJ-12 panel set up in September 1947. Dr. Carl A. Heiland was a geophysicist and magnetic sciences expert who was the head of the Colorado School of Mines, and according to Steinman leaked details of the recovery to one of Scully's sources, Leo GeBauer. Dr. Horace B. van Vandenberg was an inorganic chemist associated with the University of Colorado. Dr. Merle A. Tuve worked for the Office of Scientific Research and Development during World War II, and is chiefly remembered as a geophysicist for his techniques of radio wave propagation of the upper atmosphere. Dr. Robert J. Oppenheimer distinguished himself primarily as leader of the Los Alamos atomic bomb project , commanding the allegiance of the world's top physicists. He was the Director of the Institute of Advanced Studies at Princeton from 1947 and became Chairman of the General Advisory Committee of the Atomic Energy Commission. Dr. John von Neumann, the famous Hungarian born mathematician, became a consultant on the atomic bomb (Manhatten Project) in 1943. His main area of expertise lay in the design and development of computers. The scientists, according to Steinman, were told by Dr. Bush to assemble at Durango Airfield, Colorado, 35 miles to the north of Aztec, with the minimum delay. All those involved in the recovery were sworn to an above top secret oath.
The IPU convoy used a route to the site that avoided main roads, and on arrival road blocks were set up at strategic points within two miles of the recovery area. The owner of a ranch and his family were allegedly held incommunicado and told never to discuss the matter (cf. the Roswell incident). Equipment hauling trucks were camouflaged to look like oil drilling rigs during the operation.
Inside the Craft
A team of scientists arrived at the site a little later than the IPU team and began dissecting the disk. According to Steinman, they entered the craft one by one, entry having been gained via a fractured porthole as described in Scully's account. The portholes themselves looked metallic and only appeared translucent on close inspection. Inside the craft they found two humanoids, about two feet in height, slumped over an instrument panel charred deep brown. Another 12 bodies lay sprawled on the floor in chamber within the cabin, making a total of 14 bodies (not 16 as Scully had been told).
An instrument panel supposedly had several pushbuttons and levers with hieroglyphic-type symbols, as well as symbols illuminated on small display screens. Bush and von Neumann discovered that the control panel had drawers which rolled out, but no wiring could be detected. A book composed of parchment-like leaves with the texture of plastic also contained the strange hieroglyphs - similar to Sanskrit, Oppenheimer thought. This was given to General Marshall, who then passed it on to two leading cryptological experts for analysis, William F. Friedman and Lambros C. Callihamos (who both later led distinguished careers in the National Security Agency).
Dr. Bronk, a physiologist and biophysicist, examined the bodies and asked Bush to get hold of cryogenic equipment with which to preserve them. Cryogenics specialist Dr. Paul A. Scherer, a colleague of Bush's, was contacted and advised Bush to obtain some dry ice. Meanwhile, another small group of scientists and military personnel examined the craft and were eventually able to dismantle it when several interlocking key devices were found which opened up seams at specific points.
Three days later the segments were loaded onto three trucks, together with the bodies, and transported with a tarpaulin marked "Explosives". The convoy headed at night by the least conspicuous and often most laborious route to the restricted Naval Auxiliary Airfield Complex at Los Alamos, arriving one week later. Here they remained for over a year, Steinman claims, before being transported to another base.
The Bodies
Dr. Paul A. Scherer eventually obtained special preservation containers for the least damaged bodies, Steinman relates. One of the companies which supplied equipment was the Air Research Corporation, of which Scherer was Director of Research and Development; it supplied the liquid nitrogen pump, circulation system and refrigeration units. Other specimens were given a complete autopsy, by a team headed by Dr. Bronk, of biophysicists, histochemists and pathologists. The results were put in a report, part of which, Steinman claims, appeared in the "Air Force Project Sign (Grudge) Report No. 13" which has never been released.
According to the report, the bodies were described as averaging 42 inches in length. The facial features strongly resembled "mongoloid Orientals" in appearance, with disproportionately large heads, large "slant" eyes, small noses and mouths. The average weight was about 40 pounds. The torsos were very small and thin, with very thin necks. The arms were long and slender, reaching the knees, with hands containing long and slender fingers with webbing between them. There was no digestive or gastrointestinal tract, no alimentary or intestinal canal, and no rectal point. No reproductive organs were apparent. Instead of blood there was a colorless liquid with no red cells which smelled similar to ozone.
Veteran researcher Leonard Stringfield, a former Air Force intelligence officer who is the world's leading specialist on what he calls "Retrievals of the Third Kind," shares my misgivings about some of the material in Steinman's book, but we are both impressed with his extensive research into the Aztec case. Stringfield has uncovered further evidence himself. Captain V. A. Postlethwait, who was on detached service with Army G-2 (Intelligence) in 1948, told Stringfield that he was cleared to see a top secret cable describing the crash of a saucer-shaped craft 100 feet in diameter and 30 feet high, with one porthole broken, causing suffocation to the five occupants - who had turned blue as a result. The bodies were about four feet tall with relatively large heads, Postlethwait recollects. The metallic skin of the saucer was too tough to penetrate, although as thin as newspaper. The incident was said to have occurred near White Sands, New Mexico. Aside from a few discrepancies there are some significant parallels with the Aztec case. Postlethwait revealed to Stringfield, for example, that private property was purchased to facilitate transporting the craft.
Leonard Stringfield has also spoken with Dr. Robert Spencer Carr, a retired University of South Florida professor who claims to have testimonial evidence from five sources, including a nurse and a high-ranking Air Force officer who participated in the recovery of a crashed UFO and occupants in 1948 - presumed to be the one at Aztec (although there was another alleged recovery that year, just across the Mexican border near Laredo, Texas). In 1982 Stringfield asked Carr to disclose the name of his principal source, "on the premise that our ages give us little time tolerance in our search for truth."
"When Professor Carr named his source," says Stringfield, "I sat back dumbfounded. I knew his name well in research, and recalled some of his comments on UFOs while he served as an Air Force officer. . . . "Please, Len," pleaded Carr, "keep the name to yourself; please spare me any trouble as long as I live . . . My key witness participated in the 1948 retrieval and saw alien bodies on location."
According to Bill Steinman, two of Carr's sources were aeronautical engineers who provided important information regarding the saucer's construction and propulsion. A source now named is Arthur Bray (not to be confused with the Canadian researcher), a security guard involved with the recovery project. Carr also interviewed a woman whose father was present during the recovery. Information pertaining to the flying saucers must be suppressed, he told his daughter. "If news of this vehicle's water-driven engine got out to the whole scientific community, that would be the end of the oil industry." The comment is of course pure hearsay, but if there is any truth in it a further possible reason for the cover-up is brought to light.
At the still fenced-off crash site on a plateau twelve miles northeast of Aztec, Bill Steinman has uncovered charred and scraped-off rocks of various sizes as well as some metal bracing struts that might possibly have been used for supporting the craft. On one of his visits to the area he was shadowed by two unmarked helicopters.
As for George Bowra's claim that no one in Aztec, could recall the incident, Steinman has traced at least four people who knew where the crash site was located, one of whom, "V.A.," recalls that sometime between 1948 and 1950 a huge disk-shaped flying object with a dome on top skimmed about 100 feet above the ground not far from him. The witness pointed out to Steinman a cliff jutting above the Animas River.
"That thing, or flying saucer, tried hard to clear that cliff, but it hit the very corner up there, shooting sparks and rocks in every direction," he claims. "Finally, it made a right-angle turn in midair and headed straight north in the direction of the alleged crash site at Hart Canyon. That's the last I saw of it. I ran into the house and called the military in Albuquerque. I never heard from them about it."
Steinman first became interested in UFOs in 1981 when he read Frank Scully's book, and has since devoted much of his time and resources on the Aztec case and the other recoveries associated with Scully's claims, often in the face of discouraging odds. Steinman's job in quality assurance and analysis in the aerospace industry has aided him in probing the complex and intricate leads that he has pursued.
Writing in the foreword to Steinman's book, UFO Crash at Aztec, Leonard Stringfield explains how, like many others, he was led to believe the Scully story was a hoax, his disbelief long being conditioned by a succession of ufologists who for years claimed that Scully "was duped by a scheming Silas Newton and his cohort, Leo Gebauer." But now, thanks to Bill Steinman's painstaking research (as well as some of his own leads), he has been obliged to reevaluate the evidence.

(ISM) — Our universe may exist inside a black hole. This may sound strange, but it could actually be the best explanation of how the universe began, and what we observe today. It’s a theory that has been explored over the past few decades by a small group of physicists including myself.
Successful as it is, there are notable unsolved questions with the standard big bang theory, which suggests that the universe began as a seemingly impossible “singularity,” an infinitely small point containing an infinitely high concentration of matter, expanding in size to what we observe today. The theory of inflation, a super-fast expansion of space proposed in recent decades, fills in many important details, such as why slight lumps in the concentration of matter in the early universe coalesced into large celestial bodies such as galaxies and clusters of galaxies.
But these theories leave major questions unresolved. For example: What started the big bang? What caused inflation to end? What is the source of the mysterious dark energy that is apparently causing the universe to speed up its expansion?
The idea that our universe is entirely contained within a black hole provides answers to these problems and many more. It eliminates the notion of physically impossible singularities in our universe. And it draws upon two central theories in physics.
In this picture, spins in particles interact with spacetime and endow it with a property called “torsion.” To understand torsion, imagine spacetime not as a two-dimensional canvas, but as a flexible, one-dimensional rod. Bending the rod corresponds to curving spacetime, and twisting the rod corresponds to spacetime torsion. If a rod is thin, you can bend it, but it’s hard to see if it’s twisted or not.
The first is general relativity, the modern theory of gravity. It describes the universe at the largest scales. Any event in the universe occurs as a point in space and time, or spacetime. A massive object such as the Sun distorts or “curves” spacetime, like a bowling ball sitting on a canvas. The Sun’s gravitational dent alters the motion of Earth and the other planets orbiting it. The sun’s pull of the planets appears to us as the force of gravity.
The second is quantum mechanics, which describes the universe at the smallest scales, such as the level of the atom. However, quantum mechanics and general relativity are currently separate theories; physicists have been striving to combine the two successfully into a single theory of “quantum gravity” to adequately describe important phenomena, including the behavior of subatomic particles in black holes.
A 1960s adaptation of general relativity, called the Einstein-Cartan-Sciama-Kibble theory of gravity, takes into account effects from quantum mechanics. It not only provides a step towards quantum gravity but also leads to an alternative picture of the universe. This variation of general relativity incorporates an important quantum property known as spin. Particles such as atoms and electrons possess spin, or the internal angular momentum that is analogous to a skater spinning on ice.
Spacetime torsion would only be significant, let alone noticeable, in the early universe or in black holes. In these extreme environments, spacetime torsion would manifest itself as a repulsive force that counters the attractive gravitational force coming from spacetime curvature. As in the standard version of general relativity, very massive stars end up collapsing into black holes: regions of space from which nothing, not even light, can escape.
Here is how torsion would play out in the beginning moments of our universe. Initially, the gravitational attraction from curved space would overcome torsion’s repulsive forces, serving to collapse matter into smaller regions of space. But eventually torsion would become very strong and prevent matter from compressing into a point of infinite density; matter would reach a state of extremely large but finite density. As energy can be converted into mass, the immensely high gravitational energy in this extremely dense state would cause an intense production of particles, greatly increasing the mass inside the black hole.
The increasing numbers of particles with spin would result in higher levels of spacetime torsion. The repulsive torsion would stop the collapse and would create a “big bounce” like a compressed beach ball that snaps outward. The rapid recoil after such a big bounce could be what has led to our expanding universe. The result of this recoil matches observations of the universe’s shape, geometry, and distribution of mass.
In turn, the torsion mechanism suggests an astonishing scenario: every black hole would produce a new, baby universe inside. If that is true, then the first matter in our universe came from somewhere else. So our own universe could be the interior of a black hole existing in another universe. Just as we cannot see what is going on inside black holes in the cosmos, any observers in the parent universe could not see what is going on in ours.
The motion of matter through the black hole’s boundary, called an “event horizon,” would only happen in one direction, providing a direction of time that we perceive as moving forward. The arrow of time in our universe would therefore be inherited, through torsion, from the parent universe.
Torsion could also explain the observed imbalance between matter and antimatter in the universe. Because of torsion, matter would decay into familiar electrons and quarks, and antimatter would decay into “dark matter,” a mysterious invisible form of matter that appears to account for a majority of matter in the universe.
Finally, torsion could be the source of “dark energy,” a mysterious form of energy that permeates all of space and increases the rate of expansion of the universe. Geometry with torsion naturally produces a “cosmological constant,” a sort of added-on outward force which is the simplest way to explain dark energy. Thus, the observed accelerating expansion of the universe may end up being the strongest evidence for torsion.
Torsion therefore provides a theoretical foundation for a scenario in which the interior of every black hole becomes a new universe. It also appears as a remedy to several major problems of current theory of gravity and cosmology. Physicists still need to combine the Einstein-Cartan-Sciama-Kibble theory fully with quantum mechanics into a quantum theory of gravity. While resolving some major questions, it raises new ones of its own. For example, what do we know about the parent universe and the black hole inside which our own universe resides? How many layers of parent universes would we have? How can we test that our universe lives in a black hole?
The last question can potentially be investigated: since all stars and thus black holes rotate, our universe would have inherited the parent black hole’s axis of rotation as a “preferred direction.” There is some recently reported evidence from surveys of over 15,000 galaxies that in one hemisphere of the universe more spiral galaxies are “left-handed”, or rotating clockwise, while in the other hemisphere more are “right-handed”, or rotating counterclockwise. In any case, I believe that including torsion in geometry of spacetime is a right step towards a successful theory of cosmology.
Last week we wrote about the announcement that photographic slides of an alleged alien taken in 1947 will be revealed on May 5, 2015 in Mexico City at an event presented by Mexican journalist Jaime Maussan. However, as part of the announcement there was a trailer for an upcoming documentary on the slides, and with some manipulation, a screenshot from the trailer may have revealed the actual alleged alien photograph.
The documentary trailer is produced by Slidebox Media. Apparently, one of the photo analysts that the slides were taken to for verification thought so highly of the slides that he decided to make a documentary about them.
However, the trailer may reveal much more than the researchers intended. Besides giving a lot of background information regarding slides and the deceased couple who are believed to have been the original owners of it, the trailer also shows a computer rendering of what the alien in the slides might have looked like, based off of what can be seen in them.
In one of these images of the computer rendering, what appears to be the alien in one of the original slides can be seen as the computer graphics are graphed on top of it.

Whenever an original slide has been shown in the documentary, or in other presentations by the researchers, it has been blurred. However, in another scene in the documentary a researcher is looking at one of the slides using a magnifier.

Frank Warren, founder of the website The UFO Chronicles, zoomed in on the slide and manipulated it to see what it would look like straight on. What he got was a more clear picture of what the slide looks like. In Warren’s rendering, you can see some sort of body laying on what looks like a stretcher, and a ruler nearby. It does look like a more clear version of the slide that has been blurred.

Veteran Roswell UFO crash researchers Don Schmitt and Tom Carey have lead the research into the slides and their authenticity. They both seem convinced that the slides show a genuine extraterrestrial being that was recovered by the military during the Roswell event in July, 1947.
While they may never be able to prove this theory, they do feel they can establish the slides are real, whatever is shown in them is not a animal, human, or faked model of an alien, and they are from the proper time period. They also say they have military witnesses who saw the Roswell aliens and can confirm that what is in the images is what they saw.
While not proof, it sounds compelling. We will have to wait until May to get the rest of the details regarding the totality of their evidence and to see the real, unblurred, slides. But thanks to Warren, for now, we have a bit of a sneak preview.
UPDATEEen Europese experimentele spaceshuttle heeft vandaag met succes een eerste en wellicht enige test doorstaan, zo heeft het Europese Ruimtevaartbureau ESA meegedeeld. "ESA heeft een nieuw hoofdstuk aangesneden in termen van terugkeermogelijkheid en herbruikbaarheid", aldus directeur-generaal Jean-Jacques Dordain.
Om 14.40 uur (Belgische tijd) steeg vanop de Europese ruimtehaven Kourou in Frans-Guayana de vierde Europese Vega-raket op. Die liet op 348 km hoogte zijn "passagier" los, de onbemande IXV die een prototype van spaceshuttle is.
Gelijkend op een vliegend strijkijzer of vliegende kruimeldief klom het toestel naar een hoogte van 413 km, om dan naar de aarde terug te keren. Meer dan 300 geavanceerde en conventionele sensoren verzamelden een grote hoeveelheid data.
De snelheid van 7,5 km per seconde tijdens de duik in de atmosfeer creëerde dezelfde condities als voor ruimetetuigen die naar de Aarde terugkeren.
Een valschermsysteem remde de snelheid van het vijf meter lange en zowat twee ton wegende ruimtetuig verder af, waarna de IXV veilig in de Stille Oceaan neerplofte. Een schip moet het ongevleugelde toestel bergen.
Bedoeling van de, volgens gezaghebbend ruimtevaartjournalist Peter B. de Selding in totaal 210 miljoen euro kostende missie, was technologie voor terugkeer van ruimtetuigen uit te testen. ESA deed dienaangaande in 1998 reeds ervaring op met de succesvolle missie van de ARD-capsule.
Een mogelijke volgende stap is het lanceren met een Vega van het herbruikbare ruimtevliegtuig Pride dat dan op een landingsbaan moet neerstrijken.
België is één van de zeven landen die aan het project deelnamen.

News
videoDe Amerikaanse ruimtevaartorganisatie NASA heeft gisteren een indrukwekkende timelapse van de zon vrijgegeven. Het filmpje werd gemaakt naar aanleiding van de vijfde verjaardag van het Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) en is zeker de moeite waard.
Het SDO werd opgericht om de energie van de zon te bestuderen en de invloed hiervan op de aarde beter te begrijpen. De prachtige beelden zijn afkomstig van foto's die elke acht uur gemaakt werden tussen juni 2010 tot 8 februari 2015, aldus NASA.
"De beelden met de mooie lussen en bogen zijn extreem heet materiaal", vertelt natuurkundige Dean Pesnell in een interview met Yahoo News. "We willen begrijpen waar al die bogen vandaan komen. Ze zijn gevuld met dingen van ongeveer 2 miljoen graden [Fahrenheit]. De zon zelf is zo'n 5.500 graden celsius."
Pesnell, een wetenschapper aan het SDO zegt verder dat de verschillende kleuren corresponderen met de variatie in temperaturen en de verschillende golflengtes van waarop de zon geobserveerd werd.

VIDEO: Mysterieuze kei in vorm van vliegende schotel gevonden in Russische kolenmijn
Bewijs van buitenaard leven? Eén van de mijnwerkers met de "UFO"
VIDEO: Mysterieuze kei in vorm van vliegende schotel gevonden in Russische kolenmijn
Mijnwerkers hebben eind vorige maand in Siberië een mysterieuze kei in de vorm van een vliegende schotel gevonden. Het vreemde cirkelvormige object, dat een doorsnee heeft van 1,2 meter en 200 kilo weegt, werd 40 meter onder de grond gevonden.
De waarheid is daar buite - of is ze niet? Het voorwerp is gemaakt in de vorm van een "vliegende schotel"
Gezien de plek waar het voorwerp is gevonden, lijkt het ouder te zijn dan mammoetbotten, die op dezelfde locatie op een diepte van 25 meter zijn ontdekt. Boris Glazkov (40), die het object heeft gevonden, zei dat het opviel vanwege de vorm en omvang.
“Ik heb nog nooit zoiets gezien,” zei hij. “Het is een groot mysterie.” Zijn collega Arthur Presnjakov (38), voegde toe dat ze twee voorwerpen hadden gevonden, maar dat het eerste kapot was gegaan tijdens de graafwerkzaamheden.
Serieuze stof : het object weeg rond de 440lbs - 31 stenen...
“Er waren twee soortgelijke objecten, maar het eerste is kapot gegaan,” zei hij. “We dachten iets te zien omdat het in stukken brak, maar toen het tweede object verscheen legden we de werkzaamheden stil en haalden we het voorzichtig uit de graafbak.”
Wetenschappers wilden niet reageren omdat het onderzoek naar de vondst nog loopt.
Venus is the brightest planet in our night sky, so bright that it is often visible during the day, too. Although it is 45 million kilometers away, many people reported sightings of UFOs when the Venus was up, they claimed UFO was hovering above the neighbourhood... It even happened to me once.
It was the 27th of October, 1997. I was on my way home from school. At that time of the year, night here usually falls at about 5 - 6 p.m. It was about 6:30 when I got to my street. I live at the suburbs of my town so the streets are rather quiet and dark. And then I saw very bright object in the western sky. It was surrounded by some sort of fog. It looked very distant and i thought it looks like a comet we saw few months ago. I didn't watch it for a long time.
Two years later I got a computer program 'Starry Night Pro 3.0' by Sienna Software. The program shows star and planet positions for any time, day or year in the past or in the future. So I set the date: October 27, 1997. And there it was Venus, shining above the western horizon. I haven't seen it before so I was very surprised by its brightness...
I believe the fog was caused by high altitude clouds.
Why is Venus so bright? Its atmosphere is almost 100% carbon-dioxide. It is very dense so its cloud reflect much more sunlight than any other planet in the Solar System. In 1835, French battleship received orders from their command to knock-down enemy balloon. Later it was discovered that there was no enemy: they were trying to shoot Venus. One evening in October 1969, at 19:15, former US president Jimmy Carter saw UFO suddenly appearing in the western sky, at approximately 30 degrees altitude. "It was brighter than sky and clear like a Moon. It changed size to a size of an ordinary planet to the size of a Moon. It was about 274 - 914 meters (300 - 1000 yards) away." But, UFO skeptic Robert Sheaffer investigated the event and came up with conclusion that without any doubt, witness saw planet Venus.
One British expert for physics, R. V. Jones, once wrote an article... "My contact with this object began about in 1925, when people from Oxted, Surrey (England) told me about a strong light that moves slowly across the sky every night. Actually, I knew a married couple who was up all night just to observe it. It was Venus which attracted them with its brightness; they have never noticed that stars and planets move across the sky as Earth rotates. Venus really caused a lot of problems. In 1940 or 1941 we had alert status because of reports that Germans have a new plane which flies on a very high altitude. The report came from one defense batterry from Borders. The plane was bright and they used their instruments to determine how high does it fly. The answer was 26 000 feet and we were wondering how did they measure it so accurately. Investigation determined that 26 000 feet was the last mark on their instrument and their target was again Venus. Same explanation is for few flying saucers that appeared in the Northern Scotland. Sometimes we were able to predict when the UFO sightings will be reported, depending on Venus' position in the sky."
In autumn 2000, my friend told me that he observes UFO every night. He said that first he sees a very bright star, but that star slowly comes lower and lower. When it gets low enough, it flashes in rainbow colors. I turned on my computer and checked it with the Starry Night Pro; the time of his sighting perfectly matched with positions of Venus. What about the rainbow colors? When a star or a planet is low in the sky, its light must pass through more atmosphere than usual. The atmosphere converts light, and that is why the Sun gets red when it rises or sets. And that is why brighter planets and stars (like Venus, Jupiter, Mars or Sirius) change colors when they are low in the sky.
There are probably more UFO/Venus sightings that are not even reported. That mostly happens because people do not posess basic astronomical knowledge. Can it be so hard just to look at the sky map?...

UFO Lights Over Phoenix, Arizona – Feb 2015 (Video)
UFO Lights Over Phoenix, Arizona – Feb 2015 (Video)
Three young men from Sunnyslope are while walking to a friend’s house and they noticed strange lights flickering over Phoenix, Arizona. They filmed the lights on February 2, 2015.
A day later at approximately 10.15 pm a similar event took place near Goodyear, close to Phoenix, Arizona.
Witness: I saw the lights while driving. It was moving south over the Estrella Mountains. The lights were a fiery color. What is not visible in the video is the shape of the craft and the massive size of it. After it disappeared we continued to drive in the direction it was headed, eventually driving behind the mountain but saw nothing.
Filming for the television show Alto al Crimen in the Miraflores district of Lima, Peru was interrupted when the production team noticed a UFO hovering in the sky.
The sighting occurred on the morning of Tuesday, February 10, and was reportedly witnessed by several members of the production crew, including the show’s host, Renzo Reggiardo, a Peruvian congressman.
(Credit: Eduardo Chávez Guerra/YouTube)
Peru This Week describes, “Reggiardo had just begun filming for his program Alto al Crimen when his camera man got distracted by something floating in the distant sky. They postponed filming a few moments to take a better look at the floating object.”
Witnesses were bewildered by the strange aerial object. They managed to record video of the UFO with cameras and cell phones.
Videos of the object were uploaded to YouTube by Eduardo Chávez Guerra, a member of the show’s production crew. Although the videos are 1080p HD videos, and were likely recorded with a professional-grade camera, no clear details of the UFO are visible. And, some have questioned why a production crew didn’t bother to use a tripod to obtain better video of something so mysterious.
Although some assert that the UFO in these videos is a bad computer creation, it’s unlikely (but not impossible) that Congressman Reggiardo would participate in a hoax. Others suggest the UFO is a drone, or even a plastic bag. But witnesses doubt these possibilities because they say the object was too large and remained in the sky for too long–nearly two hours.
James Carlson, whose father was an intimate witness in 1967, took an even stronger stance on February 3, 2013 when he says:
“There were only two witnesses at Echo Flight in March 1967: the commander of the flight, Captain Eric D. Carlson, and the deputy commander, Colonial Walter Figel, Jr. Both men have publically affirmed that there was no UFO. Robert Salas and Robert Hastings are both merely agitators — one liar and the other a fraud — who have repeatedly misrepresented the claims of the men involved in these incidents. They started utilizing these methods years ago, found out that it made their claims convincing to a few ignorant people, and continued this path of slander and disruption as a result of their minor and isolated successes. They are petty con-man and fraudulent hucksters — nothing more.” (http://www.garuda.co/cpt-robert-salas-usaf/.)
Salas’ book is largely a response to these criticisms. Prior to the book, however, famed UFO researcher Richard Dolan speaks in defense of Robert Salas on his website (October 7, 2010, The Malmstrom UFO Event: Did it Really Happen?):
“Furthermore, since I believe Bob Salas is truthful – despite some early mistakes in his telling of the story – I have no reason to doubt him when he said he heard of the same thing at another location, indicating that there may well indeed have been a UFO over Echo.
“No doubt my own examination of this case will not please the critics, but I sincerely thank them for bringing it to my attention. I hope that they understand that, whatever I have said, I have done so in a spirit of discovery and collegiality.
“I want to add that when I began looking into the allegations, I did not do so with a preconceived conclusion in mind. I tried very hard to let reason, not emotion, be my guide. I admit that the allegations about Salas disturbed me, but I was determined not to let that guide my own analysis. There is no use investing yourself in a bad case. Everyone makes mistakes at one point or another. No one is immune to that fate, and the best solution is simply to prevent you from becoming emotionally attached to any conclusion. Therefore, when we learn new information, we can always modify our position.
“At this stage, I remain of the opinion that there was indeed one or more UFO events connected with the shut-down of missiles at Malmstrom Air Force Base. The case is not the slam-dunk that many of us had assumed, but I believe it is stronger than the critics have argued. And I certainly am not persuaded that key promoters of the case are liars.
“Sorting out precise dates and sequences years after the fact is always going to be messy. It has happened many times and will continue to happen. Added to this is the fact that the U.S. Air Force, as well as every segment of the U.S. defense and intelligence establishment, has never cooperated on the release of UFO-related information — for reasons that one may defend or attack. In such a situation, it is not realistic to expect claimants of a case to provide the smoking gun that skeptics demand.” (http://www.afterdisclosure.com/2010/09/malmstrom-analysis.html.)
“By the way, all the studies and repairs were necessary and could have been conducted under the guise of it being strictly electronic in nature without having to introduce the UFO into the solution matrix. However, one could infer that their mention of the EMP, as impetus behind the fail, was simply a convenient way to describe the UFO’s involvement without there being any need to be strictly overt about it.” (Anonymous, VGolubic, December 3, 2010 [diverge247@aol.com], http://timhebert.blogspot.com/2010/11/did-ufos-disable-minuteman-missiles-at.html).
Salas amply points out that there were no nuclear-atomic-explosions during that period – and for many months surrounding the missile failures from March 10 to April 4, 1967.
DIVERGENCE OF ENCOUNTERS
Such “disabling” UFO encounters are not new to UFO history. We can only point out a few (because of space limitations) that are typical:
In the spring of 1965 two female college students were driving outside of Springfield, Missouri when a “light” approached them and hovered near their car. Suddenly, the car died in the middle of the road but started again as the UFO moved away. (http://www.unexplainable.net/ufo-alien/ufo-disables-car.php.)
Levelland, Texas, November 2, 1957, patrolman A.J. Fowler began to receive reports of brilliantly illuminated torpedo-shaped objects that interfered with auto and truck engines. Pedro Saucedo and Joe Salaz reported their truck headlights went out and their engine died as the UFO passed overhead. (http://www.ufoevidence.org/cases/case228.htm.)
On August 16, 1954, about 5:00 p.m., approximately 200,000 residents and Edward Campagnac (director of Air France) saw an “electric green ball” as a “lens-shaped plasma” made several passes over the town of Tananarive, Madagascar. As the object silently circled above, the farm animals and dogs began to panic and bark. Public and private lighting would die out and return once the UFO left the area. (http://www.ufocasebook.com/2010/madagascar1954.html.)
November 4, 1957, two sentries were badly burned by an approaching orange disk that slowly descended over the military fort at Itaipu, Brazil. The UFO issued a buzzing sound and all communication devices ceased operating at 2:30 a.m. (though they were set to alarm at 5:00 a.m.). The guards received 2nd and 1st degree burns. All power systems failed, including elevators and weapons. A full Brazilian Army investigation ensued. (http://wwwmacsufonews.blogspot.com/2012/02/two-sentinels-were-burnt-by-ufo-at-fort.html.)
In 1977 the Brazilian island of Colares and the area of the Amazon delta were visited by flying objects of an unknown source. Nearly all kinds of UFOs were seen as big, some small, saucer-shaped, cigar-shaped, barrel-shaped, and luminous objects. They arrived generally from the Northern sky every day, and also sometimes from underwater. The activity lasted for months as some Island inhabitants were targeted by the objects beaming strange lights at them resulting in injury. The Air Force came, investigated, observed and reported. The bizarre rays wounded thirty-five people. Civilians fled from entire villages.
“During the months of September through December 1977, the Brazillian Air-Force under the command of a Captain Uyrang Hollanda, was sent to the island of Colares to investigate a series of incidents in which over 80 people reported being attacked by beams of light from UFO's, paralyzing two of them and leaving puncture and burn marks on their skin. The investigation was codenamed ‘Operation Saucer’. This operation collated over 15 hours of film, 500 photos, and hundreds of documents with detailed drawings and interviews with over 3000 witnesses.
“The files were to remain classified by the Brazilian Government until 1997, when UFO investigator's A J Gevaerd and Marco Petite of UFO Magazine were allowed partial access. They were also contacted by the then retired Captain Hollanda who gave them a vivid recollection of the whole series of events” (https://www.alien-ufos.com/ufo-alien-discussions/23883-colares-incident.html).
Salas presents a chronology of incidents where UFOs buzzed nuclear bases on pages 194-195.
FRIEND OR FOE: UFOs?
Donald A. Johnson, PhD, noted researcher into the geographic occurrences of UFO sightings, concludes: “So we are left with a somewhat troubling finding. Apparently UFO reports do occur more frequently in the vicinity of nuclear sites, after controlling for population and the region of the country. Given that the motives of the intelligences behind UFOs, assuming that UFOs are intelligently controlled, are not well known, we should be concerned. Given the long history of UFO incursions at sensitive, highly-restricted nuclear facilities; and given that the events of September 11, 2001 have drawn attention to the vulnerability of nuclear power plants to terrorist acts; it would seem to behoove national security agencies to re-direct some attention to the issue of UFOs entering restricted air space over nuclear facilities. No matter how possibly benign the motives of the UFO occupants may be, were I the new Director of Homeland Security I would certainly be paying attention to this matter.” (http://www.cufon.org/contributors/DJ/Do%20Nuclear%20Facilities%20Attract%20UFOs.htm.)
We are providing you with some of the most notable historical information on the UFO phenomenon in Salta which has been manifesting itself in our region for decades, startling our inhabitants.
Northern Argentina has a long history of enigmas, a mysterious angle that constitutes an important part of local culture. In recent years, one mystery has repeated increasingly in the skies of Salta – UFO sightings. Reports repeat themselves, some surprising, other questionable, some of them including the so-called “encounters of the third kind”. In cities or lonely places, jungles, rivers and dams, the UFO phenomenon has become gradually more frequent. Moreover, the massification of technologies able to record events of this sort give us the possibility of gaining access to a variety of accounts.
But these events have taken place in Salta for a long time.
Cono de Arita is an atypical formation, considered natural by many, while being unique in the world. In April 1956, a “flying cigar” flew over the mysterious cone four times in the same day. Photographs were taken, giving rise to “ufology” – the study of the phenomenon – in Argentina. Around that time, a violent explosion shook the slopes of Nevado de Macón in Tolar Grande, a peak near the Cono. In 1957, an expedition lead by physician José Cerato ascended the Macón and found – according to Cerato's statement to the press – “a series of ground traces similar to those that could be left behind by very heavy machinery, with a flat base, that had landed at the site.”
On September 25, 1956, Argentinean news agencies reported a UFO sighting in Pajas Blancas, Salta. Several witnesses saw a strange egg-shaped aircraft landing. In spite of its large size, it rose lightly into the air in a spiral motion. On June 27, 1962, residents of Salta saw an enormous “shining plate” that hung over the capital city of several minutes, dropping a substance which a witness described to El Tribuno as a “fine ashen powder.”
On July 12, 1968, Elisa Medina of Salta, heard a noise coming from the sky. She then saw a powerful beam of light illuminating the surroundings. She began to scream, but felt paralyzed by an unknown force that left her “glued to the ground”.
In May 1978, A UFO crashed near the Baritú National Park. The Gendarmerie found strange metallic remnants near Santa Victoria Oeste. On May 6, 178, a cylindrical object with a flaming wake was seen by thousands of people before crashing into the mountain of El Taire in Bolivia. It left a 300 meter deep mark on the ground, 500 meters wide and 1.5 kilometers long.

“Clearly there is a cover-up of the UFO phenomena,” says Salas, “and clearly the forces in favor of disclosure are at a disadvantage in winning this game. The prize is the entire pie. We want total disclosure and the other side wants to keep completely hidden.” (Page 97.)
Salas points at noted individuals in the cabal such as the late engineer Wilber Smith, the late Dr. Vannevar Bush, the late Admiral Roscoe Hillenkoetter, and Salas presently includes a CORE group with “the highest security rating and priority.” That team is also called the “Secret Group” by researcher Raymond Fowler. Salas charts what he believes to be the general flow and organization of the CORE group. Salas outlines what CORE may have learned about UFO activity: invisibility and the control of natural energy sources are two characteristics.
The nature of the “enemy” is highlighted by one specific incident:
A principal Civil Aviation Administration air traffic controller, Harry Barnes, distinctly felt that the 1952 UFOs over Washington, D.C could read his thoughts as they darted about over the Capitol. A pilot reported that he “heard his first name called out by a strange voice transmission. Military radio transmissions between aircraft do not use first names of pilots!”
COMPILATION OF INTERESTING SIGHTINGS
Artist rendition of UFO Attack at Fort Itaipu, Brazil
Salas portrays several favorite, little-known and unusual sightings that he feels support the reality of the phenomena. Some are large triangular UFOs, others, flew over nuclear missile bases.
A typical case was that of Josie Zwinanberg who spotted a UFO near the Soesterbuerg, Netherland’s 32nd Tactical Fighter Squadron on February 2 and 3, 1979. The object had a number of brilliant but mystically blue lights that shone from it as the object buzzed the air field. On the 3rd, the object emitted a beam of light to the ground. It was seen by many airmen at the base.
Thirty-one years later in the summer of 2011 while Zwinenberg vacationed in Ireland, she was approached by a “Tom” – a total stranger – who related details of her sightings, even tiny items and intimate information (such as the rustling of leaves) that only Zwinenberg knew.
Part of Salas’ chronology of events, in the latter part of the book, concerns the human abduction phenomena, which Salas naturally includes in his array of UFO events. Salas extrapolates findings from researchers such as Dr. Budd Hopkins, Dr. John Mack and Yvonne Smith of the Close Encounter Research Organization.
“Essentially all abductees seem to be given some information, messages, special abilities, direction, or some special ‘mission’ to perform upon their return.” says Salas, “While there is little doubt that some sort of hybridization program is on-going, there is also little doubt that ETs are trying to somehow ‘improve’ our species.”
NUCLEAR DETERENCE AND SALVATION
One of the greatest concerns of the ETs must be, says Salas, that of nuclear deterrence, human destruction, and the secrecy surrounding these topics. Commanding “fairness, honesty, equal treatment, mutual respect, openness, and account-ability to the people,” Salas concludes:
“If we do nothing, we allow excessive secrecy, we allow corruption to take hold, we allow unnecessary wars to happen, we allow a few to control us and our lives without our consent, and we allow a few to decide how we will interact with extraterrestrial life.”
CRITICS AND THE AFTERMATH
Salas’ quest, however, has not been without its critics and problems. Critic Tim Hebert (a former SAC missile crew commander and staff officer, currently in the healthcare field with a RN, BASN and MSA), however, even detailed UFO activity surrounding and prior to the Malmstrom case:
“Jan 9, 1967: Malta, MT at 9 p.m., on family farm. Family alerted by dog, family saw a large rectangular object with glowing red light along the bottom and large amber light on top moving at high speed. The object landed in a field for approximately one hour. Object suddenly disappeared as if it took off at a high rate of speed. The next day, family went to the field were the object had landed. There were no tracks in the snow and no sign that anything had been there. (Billings Gazette, 1-20-67)
“Jan 26, 1967: Havre, MT at 8:15 p.m. A man saw a yellow sphere with blinking yellow body lights which circled a mountain and flew off (nicap.org).
“Feb 9, 1967: Chester, MT, 6:30 a.m., Railroad foreman saw a saucer (disk) with bright body of light hovering over the railroad depot. The depot was engulfed in light, the object departed straight up. (Spokane Spokesman-Review, 2/12/67.)
“Feb 23, 1967 Glasgow AFB, MT, reported sighting by NICAP (no details listed).
“Mar 22, 1967: Newspaper article (UPI), ‘UFOs Seen in Great Falls Vicinity’, The Daily Inter Lake. Tuesday night, 7:45 p.m. – 8:30 p.m., several persons reported seeing unidentified flying objects over the Great Falls, Vaughn, Fort Benton, and Manchester. White lights, big with a little one on top. The object was moving east to west then north to south.
“Mar 23, 1967: Great Falls, MT, 9 p.m.: Sheriffs deputies saw a yellow object with a red glow coming from top to bottom. Object hovered then flew away; Many sightings throughout the state (Great Falls Leader, 3/24/67).
“Mar 24, 1967: Belt, MT, 9 p.m., Truck driver outside of Belt, MT sees a dome shaped object showing bright lights and landing in a nearby ravine (Investigated by Project Blue Book).”
Hebert, a confessed debunker, unfortunately, did not feel the UFO activity connected with any missile failures on the two major missile fiascos of March 16 and 24, 1967. Herbert gives a short summary of events on his website (dated November 26, 2010):
“The letter in its basic meaning set in motion for OOMA, Boeing, Autonetics and 15th AF to provide support to evaluate the situation and find a cause and correction as detailed in the 341st SMS Wing's history.
‘We must have an in-depth analysis to determine cause and corrective action…..’
“The UFO theory backers have used the Malmstrom Incident to foster the notion that a portion of the U.S. nuclear arsenal was neutralized by a UFO. True, ten ICBMs were off alert for one to two days, but no damage was done to the ICBMs themselves. And most importantly, the RVs remained under positive control! There was no ‘Broken Arrow’ called either by the 341st SMW or by SAC!
“So far, I've shown that of the 10 Echo Flight ICBMs in question:
“1. Shutdowns occurred due to a then never seen electrical anomaly.
“2. This anomaly was thoroughly evaluated by SAC, 15th Air Force, 341st SMW, Boeing, Autonetics, OOMA (Hill AFB), and AF Systems Command.
“3. Due to the on-going investigation a serious weapon system vulnerability was discovered (EMP susceptibility)
“4. A fix was implemented force-wide.
“5. After 16 Mar 1967, this type of anomaly would never again occur in any Minuteman wing/system.”
Supporters of Hebert tend to agree with him that the shutdown was caused by a electronic flux and that the reported UFOs started out as a practical joke. Other criticisms that Hebert holds are that Salas mentions maintenance personnel seeing the UFOs: this was not possible as they are usually inside the LF/silo and the names and identities of witnesses to the UFOs are not given.
Security Personnel at Ballistic Missile Launch Silo
The news corresponds to the end of a year that was rich in reports on strange manifestations of “flying saucers” and their landings on European soil, in particular. It heralded a rise in sightings worldwide.
On 5 December 1954, Buenos Aires’s “La Razón” newspaper reported – with glaring errors – that “Mr. Enrique Aguirre Zabala, employed at a shop in this city, and who is on vacation on a property that a brother of his owns on the outskirts of Coronel Pringles (Province of Buenos Aires), left the home yesterday at 6 to do some groceries, and saw a luminous disk in space that changed shape as it approached, becoming a “cigar-shaped” structure. When the strange object came within 80 meters of Aguirre, he tried to approach it, but was kept from doing so by the strength of the light it put out, and which blinded him. He says, however, that ‘using his hands as a screen, I advanced until I was perfectly able to see the strange device was half a meter over the ground, and that a strange figure could be seen moving within the disk.’ Aguirre added that it resembled a ‘large-headed dwarf.’ Shortly after there was a sudden, vivid flash of light and the disk rose into the air, vanishing toward to north.”
The Investigation
Coronel Pringles is a locality in the southeastern reaches of the Province of Buenos Aires, largely flat with small mountain ranges from the Ventania group. Its temperate, Pampean and sub-humid climate characterize it as an agricultural area.
A quick consultation with the Post Office and the Township led us to a store called “Los Corrales”, to the northeast and bordering with the urban waste water treatment facility, near the cemetery. It was there that we found Américo Rodolfo Aguirrezabala, who admitted to being the sole witness of the case in question. It became evident that the newspaper article suffered from errors, causing us to entreat him to give us a detailed description of the event, bearing in mind that many aspects had been forgotten and that had never been investigated in the intervening years.
Américo R. Aguirrezabala was 32 years old at the time. On the morning of 4 December 1954, between 6 and 7 o’clock, he headed from the Los Corrales store (located on current Route 51, Km. 29) where he lived with his brother Pedro to the farm belonging to his other sibling, Asencio, 1000 meters distant to the northeast on the same road, which at the time – it is said – was a dirt track. Heading out alone on a pleasant morning, he saw a “round” aeroform some 200 meters away and in front of a tree covered hill. It was pale red in color, some 20-30 meters in diameter, suspended at an estimated height of 15 meters over the ground. It was completely silent and transparent. “I’ve lucked out!” exclaimed Américo Aguirrezabala, having overcome his initial fear and glad to see a flying saucer, much spoken-of at the time. It glowed softly, although “since the Sun was on that side – located to the front and over the object – it did bother me a little,” says the witness, who kept walking toward the farm and getting closer to the phenomenon, which remained suspended in the air. Its transparency allowed him to see movement in what appeared to be its interior, like human silhouettes waking to and fro. They were three figures, two of which were in constant movement, but he was unable to make out any other details.
“When I got closer I saw them. I got nearer and saw people. Then I wondered: ‘what might this be?’ because I always say that I’ve got an enthusiasm for these things, but no, no…it was at that time that it appeared.”
However, the sighting of the “occupants” lasted barely some seconds and was at a distance of 70 meters. The occupants seemed indifferent to the startled onlooker. It was at that time that the phenomenon suddenly vanished, giving the impression of “rising over the trees, toward the right, taking off to the south-southwest. The sun was already rising.” The disappearance of the phenomenon was nearly instantaneous and imperceptible. “It vanished, it vanished as if by magic!” he said, captured by our tape recorder.
The total duration of the sighting was a few minutes, an estimation based on the 130 meters covered by the witness. Américo Aguirrezabala tell us what he was thinking at that minute: “I stopped there, wondering, wondering what it could be, what it might not be. I thought about what I’d read regarding flying saucers, and that this was one of them. And I wondered: “Why did they come here, if they don’t want to speak to us? That’s what it was, and I always say the same. My life didn’t change after this. No, not at all. It stayed the same. Nor did it affect me physically, nor did I have similar experiences after that. My wife did. One morning, she saw some green dwarves with hats of the same color, in the cornfield behind our house,” added Aguirrezabala enthusiastically.
He continued with his story, saying that he stopped to see if there were traces of the unusual presence: “There was nothing scorched at all. I saw the plants and all looked normal.” No alterations of the environment were noticed either, only the apparition of the phenomenon described. “Then I headed onward to the farm,” he says, “and I told my brother, and since he was nearby, toward the back and close to the woodland, he saw nothing. Neither did my other brother, Pedro, who was back in the store. Later it became the talk of the town, but at the store. Some said: ‘you’re a windbag, buddy, why the hell would you see flying saucers.” So, I don’t know if that was a saucer, but the thing was there, hanging [in the air] and nothing more…and as far as what was there, all I saw was the silhouettes walking back and forth, nothing more. No eyes or ears. I can’t tell you anything else. After it happened, it was over and I forgot about it.”
His statement ends with an effort to set the journalistic version straight: “It was the rage at the moment. That’s what prompted the paper to make it known. It was a news story that I had read about at the time, because I always bought La Razón. What I don’t know is who told me about it, although it could have come up from the conversations that used to come about in my store…”
Considerations on the Case
In this incident from Saturday, 4 December 1954, we have a witness who makes a clear effort to recall a sighting that took place a long time ago, without the existence of circumstances that would prompt his memory. However, the tenacity of his memory has been bolstered by the interest and the feelings set in motion by the sight of an unusual event, such as the one described by Américo Aguirrezabala.
Bearing these factors in mind, we have proceeded to collect the most essential aspects of the eyewitness account, and come up with a sort of explanation in the measures that the information provided it will allow it.
In this regard, the early hour of the sighting should be pointed out: between 6 and 7 o’ clock, according to Aguirrezabala, and “6 in the morning” according to the journalistic version. At that time, the sun rose at 5:40 a.m., precisely in the same direction in which the alleged UFO was seen.
It has not escaped us, either, that this phenomenon presented a vision similar to that of the sun: that is to say, circular, with a similar angular size, and a color frequently seen on the horizon.
On the other hand, the differences noted are: its transparent appearance (an inconsistency?), soft glow, movement on its surface, and sudden disappearance.
If we try to reconcile both characteristics, we must refer to certain optical phenomena known as parhelia (sun dogs), through which we may understand the causes for their manifestation. In studying these phenomena, scientists noted long ago that they appear when the Sun (or the Moon) are covered by a bright white veil – a layer of high stratiform cirrus clouds. These clouds float at an altitude of six to eight kilometers and are made up by tiny ice crystals, rising and descending along air currents, reflecting by like a mirror, or else refract the solar rays that fall on them like a glass prism. It often happens that the sky seems to be completely clear, but many small ice crystals float in the atmosphere without forming a cloud. This often happens when the weather is cold and clear at that altitude.
Generally, “the sundog” comes about when the Sun is not very high over the horizon, causing a large halo that goes unseen. Sundogs tend to disappear unexpectedly, or suddenly, according the movement of the sun over the horizon, the air currents and the hexahedral ice crystals floating vertically. Sundogs are not a strange phenomenon in certain parts of the world, and they are often as bright as the Sun itself (1).
In the Province of Buenos Aires (where the incident under discussion took place), there are several journalistic reports involving parhelia. Around that time, on 25 April 1949 in Bernal (2) and on 28 February 1950 in Mar del Plata (3) just to mention a few. More recently, in February 1987 and in a space of 20 days, eight cases were recorded in San Nicolas, and similar ones in Monte Hermoso and Pigue (4).
As for the silhouettes moving within it, seen diffusely for a few seconds, we believe that the witness likely saw – influenced by the worldwide saucer flap – and convinced that he was seeing a “genuine” flying saucer, he did not hesitate to attribute any movement in the optical image to the presence of unknown entities.

Who are we? Methods, validity, and scope is what we are sharing in the world of awakening awareness as in consciousness. Being awake and aware of all that surrounds us and being plugged into the universal consciousness is not only a right but a responsibility.
Wakefulness is a daily recurring brain state and state of consciousness in which an individual is conscious and engages in coherent cognitive and behavioral responses to the external world such as communication, ambulation, eating, and sex. Being awake is the opposite of the state of being asleep in which most external inputs to the brain are excluded from neural processing.
Epistemology is the investigation of what distinguishes justified belief from opinion. Epistemology episteme-knowledge, understanding; logos-study of is the branch of philosophy concerned with the nature and scope of knowledge and is also referred to as “theory of knowledge”.
It questions what knowledge is and how it can be acquired, and the extent to which knowledge pertinent to any given subject or entity can be acquired. Authority is most religions other than in monism of one God vs. polytheism of many gods. Question final authority as whose?
Much of the debate in this field has focused on the philosophical analysis of the nature of knowledge and how it relates to connected notions such as truth, belief, and justification.
The term “epistemology” was introduced by the Scottish philosopher James Frederick Ferrier. In Christian, Islamic, or Jewish mysticism, mystery religions and Gnosticism gnosis generally signifies a spiritual knowledge or “religion of knowledge”, in the sense of mystical enlightenment or “insight”. Christian Science, some forms of spiritualism, and in what was called the “New Theology,”.
“Gnosis” and “Gnosticism” are almost always used interchangeably. The suggestion that term “gnosis” ought to be used to describe a state of consciousness, while “Gnosticism”.
Definitions in fields such as social sciences and spiritual science is being written. Historical context of beliefs toward action now unfolds. Monism is the philosophical view that a variety of existing things can be explained in terms of a single reality or substance. Stuff monism is only one kind of stuff as matter or mind.
Thing-monism exists speaking as a single thing the universe so is monism a metaphysical dualism and metaphysical pluralism? Are we there yet?
William Blake on Emery summarizes twelve points on which Gnostics tended to agree in describing characteristics of the Gnostic mythos.
Gnostic teachers and groups in era of classical Gnosticism adheres to some or all who are called a Gnostic:
The Gnostics posited an original spiritual unity that came to be split into a plurality.
As a result of the pre-cosmic division the universe was created. This was done by a leader possessing inferior spiritual powers and who often resembled the Old Testament Jehovah.
A female emanation of God was involved in the cosmic creation albeit in a much more positive role than the leader.
In the cosmos, space and time have a malevolent character and may be personified as demonic beings separating man from God.
For man, the universe is a vast prison. He is enslaved both by the physical laws of nature and by such moral laws as the Mosaic code.
Mankind may be personified as Adam, who lies in the deep sleep of ignorance, his powers of spiritual self-awareness stupefied by materiality.
Within each natural man is an “inner man,” a fallen spark of the divine substance. Since this exists in each man, we have the possibility of awakening from our stupefaction.
What effects the awakening is not obedience, faith, or good works, but knowledge.
Before the awakening, men undergo troubled dreams.
Man does not attain the knowledge that awakens him from these dreams by cognition but through revelatory experience, and this knowledge is not information but a modification of the sensate being.
The awakening i.e., the salvation of any individual is a cosmic event.
Since the effort is to restore the wholeness and unity of the Godhead, active rebellion against the moral law of the Old Testament is enjoined upon every man.
Emery's twelve points are in every consistent with the proposal set out by the colloquium at Messina. Second-century Gnosticism is taken as the principal model for all of these definitions, a practice that appears to be sensible.
Feminism and the Gaia hypothesis may be a part of Gnosticism? So who are we alien or ET?
For any reader interested in finding a connection between the slayings of animals attributed to creatures known as “Chupacabras” and the UFO phenomenon, the simplest procedure would consist in scanning the press for both types of stories. If we compare them in volume, we shall see a significant imbalance that would suggest, initially, a lack of connection between both phenomena. Nonetheless, an analysis of the scant journalistic manifestation serves to dispel this preconception even further. Let us examine the source material.
News Broadcast on Televisión Nacional, Señal 7, Santiago de Chile
First quarter of April 2000.
The problems faced by a camera crew attempting to record a triangle found in the Quebrada de Panipica (4,333 meters above sea level) in Chile’s 2nd region, are made public. It was only on the third attempt that the object was able to be recorded in color, having appeared earlier in black and white. This triangle seemingly has an electromagnetic effect over machinery and equipment.
As days went by, a witness named Wilson Torres, an equipment technician, said that he had found that triangle in the year 1989. It is only possible to see it from a height.
UFOs in the Desert – El Mercurio de Calama – Page A3 – Thursday, 13 April 2000.
The development and magnification of photographs taken in the interior of Calama, in the Commune of San Pedro de Atacama, made plain the existence of an equilateral triangle measuring 40 meters on its sides, located between the mountains and near the Sairecabur volcano, at an altitude of over four thousand meters.
The formation was first noticed by elements of the Anti-Narcotics Brigade of the Calama Police, who took photographs in the interior or the province as part of a study for a proposed landing strip. Upon developing the film and magnifying it, they noticed a curious shape on the terrain in the bottom of a gorge known as Panipica, surrounded by the convergence of the slopes of three mountains.
Without giving it further importance, they took advantage of a journey to the interior to reach this location, some 60 kilometers northeast of San Pedro de Atacama, some 4000 feet above sea level.
An equilateral triangle measuring 40 meters on each side startled the police officers, because from the height of one of the mountains, it looked like a huge set square, whose interior had an intense gray, nearly black, color. Once they reached the place, the authorities ascertained that this triangle was surrounded by grass. The interior surface, however, measuring 40 meters per side, is a plain of solid stone, flattened and burned on its upper side, as though subjected to very high temperature.
They thought it might be a heliport, but considering the prevailing wind direction, this proved impossible, because no known craft could make a landing with such a hindrance. The surface and its periphery do not match the traditional landscape of the north, and it is not a geoglyph, in the estimation of the police officers. Their immediate deduction is that it could have been a place where a meteorite fell, or where a UFO could have landed.”

In the Province of El Loa (2nd Region) and at an altitude of 4,233 meters above sea level, there exists what have some have considered to be a possible landing site for unidentified flying objects, some two kilometers from another runway that has attracted police attention due to drug trafficking.
More than shapes, two triangular structures over a broad expanse of terrain, flattened to a considerable depth, suggest the intense pressure they were exposed to, as if something of considerable weight rested upon them.
From these locations it is possible to see the Sairecabur volcano and the Chatxas mountain, snow-crowned, undeniably contributing to the intense cold of the region. The triangles follow the lines of the Panipica Gorge. One of the triangles was discovered by the Anti-Drug Brigade of the Calama Police while the other was found by reporters. The larger triangle measures some 40 meters on each side; it is an equilateral triangle, although seen at a distance, it looks like an isosceles triangle – having two equal sides and one unequal one. The smaller triangle is similar but less visible, as it becomes lost between two mountains.
The surface surrounding the triangle is surrounded by the plants known as “leon echado” (sleeping lion) by residents of the interior, due to its aspect when it dries out. It is pure scrub vegetation and is always swept by the wind, despite its hardness. The triangulation is formed precisely because the vegetation disappeared, possibly burned off or due to an extraordinarily powerful wind that left the surroundings with the green plants pointing in the same direction. The sector is covered by four-inch stones, but these have been demolished within the triangle into the “rip-rap” employed in highway paving. They are tamped down in such a way that exceeds the capabilities of known drum rollers employed in paving operations. The flattening is in excess of two meters deep. Some of the four-inch stones resisted the pressure and remained inside the formation, but their coloring is different from the rest. At the point where the three heights of the triangle come together, there grows a plant of such hardness that it cannot be removed by hand or even using a small tool.
The [triangular shape] seems to be protected by an electrical force. The automatic systems of the photo camera failed in that place, and was only able to operate from the surrounding areas. The desert has thousands of shapes caused by changes in colors, topography and visible geological features, but these triangles do not correspond to what is readily visible. The ground conditions dismiss the likelihood that the triangles could be the bottom of a lagoon. If this were the case, we would be talking about the Neolithic period and it would have been discovered a long time ago.
The locale is suitable to the description given last year to this newspaper by a Calama resident who was allegedly saved from certain death in the heights due to the appearance of two UFOs. He saw two vehicles that employed a highly peculiar communication system by means of shapes traced in the air. He claimed [the craft] emerged from in between the volcanos and after some lengthy communication, they disappeared. The Calama resident walked up a slope. In the distance, he was able to see laborers working with heavy machinery. His descriptions correspond to the topography and geography of that sector. The workingmen could have been from a mining company located to the north. Quarry work can be seen to the South of this location.
In days following this experience, the man was found near San Pedro de Atacama and was taken to a first aid station. The experience with the two UFOs took place in 1994.
More Recent Events
“It was like an electric arc light, lasting for a fraction of a second, lighting up the entire valley of Calama, but it was snuffed before it hit the ground, and could have easily fallen in Argentina or in Chiu-Chiu.”
There just so happens to be a straight line running from Calama to the triangle. The straight line runs through Ayquina. This happened on March 19th and the witness was Jorge Elias Zenteno,58, an electronics technician and current night watchman of a graveyard located to the west of Calama on Route 60, 4 kilometers from the city limits. The phenomenon took place at 1:10 hours on St. Joseph’s Day, and coincides with the date that concerns the Institute of Astronomy, whose director, Luis Barrera, reported to NASA in the U.S.A. regarding meteorite falls between 22:00 hours on 18 March and 22:00 hours on 19 March.”
Something Fell from the Sky – El Mercurio de Calama – Page A26 – Sunday, May 20, 2000
“Two months ago, perhaps more, three green colored meteorites (similar to a flare) crossed the skies of Antofagasta from East to West. They did not travel continuously: the first one entered our atmosphere around 23:00 hours on a Saturday; the second at 01:30 hours in the morning; the third at five o’clock in the morning. These meteorites were seen by over a hundred people. Records of this phenomenon were submitted by Luis Barrera, Director of the Institute of Astronomy of the Universidad Catolica del Norte.
No logical explanation for what occurred was ever put forth. The three meteorites allegedly crashed in some point of our cordillera. When they struck the Earth’s surface, no impact or tremor was felt – only a large flash that filled the horizon.
Nothing was ever heard again about the meteorites. Two weeks later, a strange “runway” is found in the desert of our region. It is a triangle measuring forty meters on each side; its interior is completely flat and without stones. The presence of a powerful magnetic field was ascertained in this area, capable of causing alterations to wristwatches, photo cameras and video cameras. What is going on here? Is this an extraterrestrial landing strip? Is this where the meteorites fell, which weren’t meteorites at all but alien craft? Many questions can be put forth about the subject without finding an answer. This triangle remains an unsolved mystery. The animal slayings in the provinces of El Loa, Tocopila and Antofagasta commenced shortly after the appearance of this “landing strip” – that is to say, we are talking about three facts that could be related to each other, or not at all. No rational explanation, however, has been found for these three cases. Meanwhile, the Chupacabras keeps attacking and killing animals in other regions of the country.”
My Observations on the Subject
The discovery of the notorious triangle occurred nearly 11 years prior to the mass killings of animals. This account demolishes journalistic information that endeavors to relate it with the animal deaths in the 2nd Region and other parts of the country, showing that chroniclers and journalists forged a link between these items that has never been proven, employing significant elements.
For a while now, I have kept a record of UFO sightings in Chile since the year 1580 on a map. I did something similar with the Chupacabras. This does not mean that one supports the other.
Up to now, no eyewitness accounts involving UFO sightings in days prior, during the night or during the morning have come forth regarding animal deaths between January 2000 and October 2002, in any part of the national territory.
We are unable to even statistically consider the frequency of UFO sightings and the record of killings, which exceeds 200 cases confirmed by the press.
I incorrectly believed at one point that an event in Punta Arenas could bolster a case in the 2nd Region or anywhere else. Over the course of months and days, I’ve come to realize it is quite the contrary. For this reason, these words set forth my working hypothesis regarding the lack of relationship [between UFOs and animal deaths] at least in Chile, until the contrary can be proven. We are still collecting journalistic information and requesting support from experts on the subject. There is still much to be collected, researched and contrasted in this regard.
A UFO has captured the attention of thousand of Peruvians today, after Congressman Renzo Reggiardo and his film crew captured footage of a purple floating object in the sky over Miraflores, Lima in Peru on February 10, 2015.
According to Peruthisweek Reggiardo had just begun filming for his program “Alto al crimen” when his camera man got distracted by something floating in the distant sky. They postponed filming a few moments to take a better look at the floating object.
Onlookers in the video shout their wild suggestions and estimations for the UFO and concluded it could not be a plane for the way it was floating.
Geen Big Bang? Nieuw model voorspelt dat het universum geen begin heeft
Geen Big Bang? Nieuw model voorspelt dat het universum geen begin heeft
Volgens de theorieën van Einstein is het heelal zo’n 13,8 miljard jaar geleden ontstaan uit een enorm heet punt met een oneindig grote dichtheid. Tegelijkertijd met deze oerknal zouden ruimte en tijd zijn ontstaan.
Hoewel de meeste mensen dit model accepteren, kunnen wetenschappers nog altijd niet verklaren wat er in dit punt, een singulariteit geheten, is gebeurd of wat ervoor was. Twee natuurkundigen hebben een radicale nieuwe theorie opgesteld die suggereert dat de Big Bang nooit heeft plaatsgevonden en dat ons universum geen begin en geen eind heeft.
“De oerknaltheorie voorspelt zijn eigen ondergang,” zei professor Saurya Das van de Universiteit van Lethbridge in Canada. “De theorie verklaart ook niet waar die oorspronkelijke staat precies vandaan kwam.”
Om dit probleem op te lossen combineerden de wetenschappers de algemene relativiteitstheorie, die de krachten om ons heen beschrijft, met de kwantummechanica, die het gedrag van subatomaire deeltjes beschrijft.
“Voor zover wij kunnen zien kan het heelal geen begin hebben omdat verschillende punten in het universum in het verleden nooit zijn samengekomen,” zei professor Das. “Het blijft voor altijd bestaan. Het heeft geen eind. Met andere woorden: er is geen singulariteit.”
Maar als de Big Bang nooit heeft plaatsgevonden, hoe is het heelal dan ontstaan? “Het universum kan bijvoorbeeld altijd al hebben bestaan,” speculeert professor Das. “Het kan door verschillende cycli zijn gegaan of het is veel eerder gecreëerd.”
Zijn theorie kan ook de oorsprong van donkere materie en donkere energie verklaren. Het heelal bestaat naar schatting voor 25 procent uit donkere materie en voor 70 procent uit donkere energie.
“We laten zien dat een Bose-Einsteincondensaat zich mogelijk al vroeg heeft gevormd en zowel donkere materie als donkere energie kan verklaren,” zei Das. In de jaren negentig ontdekten astronomen dat de uitdijing van het heelal versnelt als gevolg van de aanwezigheid van donkere energie. Die versnelling kan met het model van Das ook worden verklaard.
“Het geeft een zekere voldoening dat zulke correcties zoveel problemen in één keer kunnen oplossen,” zei Das. Het onderzoek is gepubliceerd in het tijdschrift Physics Letters B.
We horen natuurlijk regelmatig verhalen van UFO’s die in de buurt van passagiersvliegtuigen worden gesignaleerd.
Dat twee passagierstoestellen van dezelfde maatschappij daardoor ontwijkende bewegingen moeten maken om geen botsing te krijgen, komt niet zo vaak voor.
Toch is dit wat er gebeurde in het westen van Australië, niet ver van de stad Perth.
Beide gevallen hebben betrekking op vliegtuigen van dezelfde luchtvaartmaatschappij, Skippers Aviation uit Perth.
Het ene incident vond plaats op 19 maart vorig jaar toen een De Havilland DHC-8 met registratie VH-XFX van deze maatschappij onderweg was van Kambalda in West Australië naar Perth.
Het toestel had bijna haar bestemming bereikt en vloog op 23 kilometer afstand ten noorden van Perth op een hoogte van 3.800 voet, toen de bemanning een vreemd licht waarnam recht voor het toestel.
Het leek alsof het licht zich bewoog in de richting van het toestel en de bemanning besefte dat het hoorde bij een onbekend vliegend object, een UFO dus.
De piloot moest een ontwijkende manoeuvre maken om niet tegen het object te botsen en het passeerde het vliegtuig op een afstand van ongeveer 20 meter en zo’n 30 meter hoger dan het vliegtuig.
Volgens het rapport van de piloot was het een cilindervormig object en grijs van kleur. Het gebied waar het incident plaatsvond was in zogenaamde “controlled airspace”, wat betekent dat er geen verkeer mag vliegen zonder toestemming en alleen onder controle van de verkeersleiding. Het was duidelijk dat deze UFO zich niet had gemeld bij de verkeersleiding. Deze hadden ook helemaal niets gezien op hun radarschermen en konden derhalve het vliegtuig ook geen waarschuwing geven.
Omdat het vliegtuig vloog op 3.800 voet hoogte en de ruimte beneden 3.500 voet verboden militair gebied was, ging het vermoeden in eerste instantie uit naar een militaire drone. De Australische luchtmacht verklaarde echter van niets te weten en was daar op die dag ook niet actief geweest met drones.
Volgens UFO onderzoeker Paul Dean bestaat hier dan ook geen twijfel en hebben we te maken met een buitenaards voertuig. Zeker omdat dit de tweede keer was dat er zich een dergelijk incident voordeed.
Volgens Paul Dean was er op 4 januari 2013 een vergelijkbaar incident op ongeveer dezelfde positie en eveneens met een Skippers vliegtuig.
Uiteraard proberen de autoriteiten dit af te doen als mensen die met op afstand bestuurbare (sport)toestellen vliegen en dat dit toch wel de nodige gevaren voor de luchtvaart oplevert. De verkeersleiding noch de luchtmacht heeft echter iemand kunnen vinden die hiervoor verantwoordelijk geweest zou kunnen zijn.
Daarom blijft dit mysterie de gemoederen in Perth en omstreken bezighouden en zijn er toch velen die denken dat er wel degelijk sprake is van een UFO.

Apparent Authentic Film Allegedly Shows Alien From Roswell Incident
Apparent Authentic Film Allegedly Shows Alien From Roswell Incident
UNCENSORED magazine claims a 1940s film was recently discovered showing U.S. military personnel carrying remains of an alien. The New Zealand/Australian magazine first posted the video to its website on January 22 by its editor Jonathan Eisen and uploaded to YouTube recently. Titled “Roswell Original Footage of Dead Alien Rediscovered by UNCENSORED Editor,” the video allegedly not only shows dead alien body, but also people who carried it out from the military ambulance to a particular place.
The post in the magazine cites the All News Pipeline, an alternative news website, as their source of the story. Indeed, the All News Pipeline published a story of the video on the 13th of January titled “Is This The Real Roswell Alien Footage?”
According to the source, the technical people of UNCENSORED did a frame by frame analysis prior releasing the footage online, and these people determined that the video was legitimate in every aspect. The source says that it has sufficient clues to ascertain that the footage came from the late 1940s.
UNCENSORED write up about the video states that the images from the footage were first posted on the magazine and adds that the complete footage itself has yet to be released by the magazine on the Internet.
However, this assertion has some problems including the fact that this footage has already made rounds on the Internet for years now. For example, the same footage was uploaded to YouTube in 2011 titled “Roswell 1947 Alien Footage – Copy of Original 1947 Footage…”
Additionally, similar footage appeared in 2006 comedy film titled “Alien Autopsy.” See it at the 1:07 mark of the clip from the movie.
The alleged Roswell footage has been around for years, but its authenticity has since been debated.
Alien Autopsy: Fact or Fiction, a famous television documentary in 1995, shows an apparent real alien autopsy from the 1947 Roswell UFO crash. The man behind this documentary, London businessman Ray Santilli, claimed a former US military cameraman had the possession of the footage and that he bought it from him. But Santilli admitted that his television documentary only shows a recreated footage because the original one was damaged beyond repair. He claimed that the short black and white video shown in 2006 movie Alien Autopsy and recently featured by UNCENSORED is original and authentic footage.
Some firmly believe that the short film does show the real alien from the crash incident in Roswell, but others just can’t accept this possibility, including sculptor John Humphreys. According to Humphreys, Santilli hired him to make the aliens shown in the Alien Autopsy comedy. Humphreys added that he was also hired to perform the effects of black and white sequence.
Six spookiest UFO sightings and alien abductions ever reported in Scotland
Six spookiest UFO sightings and alien abductions ever reported in Scotland
This UFO spotted above Loch Lomond has re-ignited a long standing debate
Last week an incident above Loch Lomond was added to the long list of reported UFO sightings above Scotland.
The Loch Lomond sighting was slightly further north of the hotbed of Scottish UFO sightings said to take place in the ‘Falkirk Triangle’.
The Falkirk triangle stretches from Stirling to the outskirts of Edinburgh and is said to be home to around 300 sighting reports each year.
The centre of the Falkirk triangle is, of course, Bonnybridge. The small town, just outside of Falkirk, has had so many UFO sightings it is now officially twinned with the American city of Roswell in New Mexico, the site of the famous alleged saucer crash in 1947.
Bonnybridge
With literally thousands of sightings since the early 1990s, Bonnybridge is officially the home of UFOs in Scotland.
Over 600 sightings were made from 1992 to 1994 and as sightings continued thereafter, authorities wrote to Westminster pleading for help.
Cllr William Buchanan, wrote to both John Major and Tony Blair demanding “the truth”.
However, the MoD replied that it was “satisfied that there is no evidence that the United Kingdom’s airspace might have been compromised by hostile or unauthorised foreign military activity”.
Livingston
In November 1979 a man reported seeing a “flying dome” and being attacked by aliens, just outside Livingston.
Robert Taylor, a forestry worker for the Livingston Development Corporation, explained he was walking his dog along a forest path up the side of Dechmont Law when he saw what he described as a “flying dome” or a large, circular sphere approximately 20 feet (6.1 metres) in diameter, hovering above the forest floor in a clearing.
Taylor said the object was “a dark metallic material with a rough texture like sandpaper” featuring an outer rim “set with small propellers”.
Taylor says he could smell a foul smell “like burning brakes” and that smaller spheres “similar to sea mines” then dragged him towards the larger object before he lost consciousness.
When he awoke the objects were gone, he was battered and bruised, his trousers were ripped and he could not start his truck, so walked all the way home.
A plaque has now been erected on the site of the alleged encounter by UFO enthusiasts.
Muchalls
While Bonnybridge may be Scotland’s UFO capital, the Aberdeenshire village of Muchalls certainly runs it close.
UFO sightings in the village began in the early 1970s and were reportedly seen almost every night over a number of years.
There was two main witnesses and by the 1990s, with developments in technology, UFOs were filmed in the area.
Calvine
An artist’s impression of the UFO above Calvine after the original picture was taken
UFO investigator Nick Pope, insists “compelling” evidence of extraterrestrials in Scotland has been covered up. Pope formerly ran the Ministry of Defence’s project on the subject and, speaking to BBC Radio Scotland Show, Tales of the Unexplained, he said the best picture of a UFO he ever saw was that of a“diamond-shaped metallic craft” suspended in the sky over the village of Calvine in Perthshire.
The UFO was spotted by two men who reported seeing the 25 metre craft hover for 10 minutes before charging up into the heavens at great speed.
The two men took a picture of the craft, which appeared to show military planes in the background and seemed to be escorting “or even chasing” the UFO.
The picture was later sent to the Ministry of Defence where experts told Pope they believed the photo was genuine and Pope blew up the picture and pinned it to his wall.
However, the picture was taken down by Pope’s manager and was never seen again – it did not even appear years later when the MOD released ‘all’ their UFO files.
A70 abduction
Garry Wood was one of two men who claim they were abducted from the A70
One August night in 1992, Garry Woods and Colin Wright were driving down the A70 road outside Edinburgh, heading to see a friend. However, looking skywards, they spotted a disc-shaped UFO above the road.
The object produced a strange mist and, when the mist touched the car, they duo say that everything went black.
Later, under hypnosis, Woods and Wright recalled having been forced aboard the UFO by three small entities.
They claim they were given a physical examination while on board the craft before being returned safely to their vehicle.
Fraserburgh
Muchalls is not the only place in Aberdeenshire where UFO sightings have been reported.
A frightened north east family spotted a strange object in the sky just above their home near Fraserburgh, they filmed the UFO for a short while but it remained overhead for hours.
Morag Ritchie noticed the flickering rotating lights around 2am and explained to BBC Scotland: “I saw what I thought was a bright star.
“However, it was a sequence of flashing lights. There was also a darting light coming from the side. There was no sound, either.”
Ritchie woke her family up and they all witnessed the UFO hang in the air as a number of other lights turned on and off around the main object.

On this day in 1989, tourists flocked to Alabama town of Fyffe after UFO sightings
On this day in 1989, tourists flocked to Alabama town of Fyffe after UFO sightings
On Feb. 11, 1989, several people reported seeing UFOs over Fyffe, Ala. The sightings would become a national story. Here is a story I wrote about it for the 25th anniversary in 2014:
"FYFFE, Alabama - The prospect of seeing a UFO lured more than 4,000 people to this town of 1,300 in northeast Alabama Friday night, but for all the hoopla no unidentified flying objects were sighted. Visibility was difficult because of clouds and light rain. Fyffe got on the UFO circuit Feb. 10, when a woman reported seeing a strange light in the sky and the police later reported seeing a large lighted object passing silently over them. Numerous other sightings have been reported since then." - New York Times, March 6, 1989
Twenty-five years ago last week, the tiny DeKalb County town of Fyffe, Ala., became the center of national attention.
On Friday, Feb. 11, 1989, the first call was made to the Fyffe Police Department. A woman reported seeing a strange object in the sky. By the end of Feb. 12, more than 50 residents had reported seeing the strange objects, including the town's police chief and his assistant.
The object was described by a witness as hovering "at an angle from 1 o'clock to 7 o'clock with bright lights at the top and bottom. The curvature was outlined in green with "a real bright light in the center."
Fyffe Police Chief Charles "Junior" Garmany and Assistant Police Chief Fred Works responded to the initial call and soon saw something in the sky.
Garmany and Works were driving along DeKalb County Road 43 but stopped and stepped out of the car when they saw an object in the sky that was "bigger than a jumbo jet" and silent. They described it as metallic and triangular shaped.
According to DeKalbLandmarks.org, Works told a reporter: "The object came on over and got straight overhead. It was big, wide and appeared to be a wide triangular shape. We kept waiting to hear the sound. We kept looking at each other and saying, 'Where's the sound?' We never heard anything."
Garmany added: "What I saw the first time was like nothing I ever saw before. It was not a helicopter, it was not a plane. Not a sound."
A week later, Works told the Associated Press: "I'm not saying what I saw was a flying saucer but what really got to me was the lack of sound."
Other law officers who reported seeing something strange in the sky included a Crossville Police officer, the Geraldine Police chief and a state trooper, AP reported.
Over the next few days as many as 4,000 tourists and more than 100 news organizations converged on Fyffe. After a witness described the craft as banana shaped, an entrepreneur began selling T-shirts with a banana-shaped object on the front with the words: "I Survived the Fyffe UFO."
For a while, residents of Fyffe enjoyed the notoriety but soon the tourists and jokes grew tiresome, as The Tuscaloosa News reported Feb. 17, 1989, under the headline "Fyffe police chief, aide tired of UFO jokes."
Works said in the article: "I walked into the grill the other day for lunch and there sat a reporter. I never even got to eat. I came on back to the office and there sat reporters from a TV station...Right now, I'm two wreck reports behind."
After a few years, however, the town realized the lure of its history and began hosting the Fyffe UFO Days Festival each August, featuring hot air balloons, arts and crafts, games, a street dance, live entertainment and more.
Junior Garmany went on to run the Shop and Go store in Fyffe and later ran unsuccessfully for the Town Council. Garmany died Oct. 24, 2013, at the age of 64. The flag at Fyffe Town Hall flew at half mast in his honor, according to the town's Facebook page.
Other sightings in Alabama
Fyffe is not the only Alabama town with a history of UFO sightings. Sightings were especially plentiful in the 1970s.
To this day, Alabamians are reporting seeing strange craft in the sky. Alabama ranked 15th in the U.S. in 2013 in the number of sightings, according to the Mutual UFO Network. See rankings here.
Falkville 1973
In 1973, another police chief in a small north Alabama town took a photo of what he thought was an alien being.
That October, Falkville Police Chief Jeff Greenhaw responded to a call from a woman who was "excited" as she reported seeing something strange. Greenhaw responded and came upon a 6-foot tall metallic creature with an antennae on its head.
"It looked like his head and neck were kind of made together... he was real bright, something like rubbing mercury on nickel, but just as smooth as glass-different angles give different lighting. I don't believe it was aluminum foil... It was running faster than any human I ever saw."
Greenhaw was ridiculed and lost his job. Many people believed someone had played a prank on the chief. However, the photo he snapped of the creature that night can be seen in books on alien life.
Moundville 1976
An anonymous witness told The Tuscaloosa News what he saw in October 1976: "The thing dropped out of the sky like a rock/ Just when I thought I was about to be crushed, it pulled up just short ... I looked up again and a light as bright as the sun blinded me."
Hayden Mountain 1977
In 1977, Mr. and Mrs. Terry White were driving toward their Blount County home with their children in the car when they spotted a 65-foot-long craft. Terry told The Tuscaloosa News: "It had something coming out of the bottom of the object. It looked like pads. They were half the width of the object."
Tuscaloosa 1977
A local teenager, Stewart Lewis, told The Tuscaloosa News: "What I saw then was beyond imagination. It was kind of a triangular shaped It object with the shape of a pool rack. It had a deep yellow glow...it seemed like it was thrown out of an explosion. It was tumbling but it was moving slowly on a line."

The Hessdalen light is an unexplained light usually seen in the Hessdalen valley in Norway.
Unusual lights have been reported here since the 1940s or earlier. Especially high activity of Hessdalen lights took place from December 1981 until the summer of 1984 when lights were observed 15–20 times per week. Since then, the activity has decreased and now the lights are observed some 10–20 times per year.
The Hessdalen light most often is a bright, white or yellow light of unknown origin. On February 8, 2015, the Live Cam2 (NW) recorded again a strange light floating above the ground level.
This kind of mysterious entities or supernatural beings are seen worldwide. Despite intensive research and analysis on this phenomenon, there is no explanation as to what it could be.
On the back roads of Brazoria County, somewhere between Damon and West Columbia along Highway 36, they still talk about a pair of purple and blue lights.
It’s the story of Brazoria County Deputy Bob Goode and Chief Deputy Billy Edwin McCoy.
It was September 3, 1965 when they spotted the mile wide UFO with Purple and Blue Lights.
Interesting video about a strange recordings of some kind of a spheres of UFOs with some kind of an alien beings inside.
A través de una cámara de seguridad una mujer logro captar una esfera y dentro de esta se ven las siluetas de seres aparentemente de morfología alienígena.
Two weeks ago my husband was awakened out of my sleep in the early morning hours and saw a small red laser light that traveled across the ceiling and down the northwest corner of the bedroom wall. I reported the incident to the local police department. Our first thought was that someone was playing a prank with either a laser pointer or worst case scenario a gun sight. I did however; have a problem with my husband’s laser theory because his bedroom window has heavy bamboo blinds that are pulled more than halfway down. It would be difficult for anything to penetrate the thick bamboo blinds. As far as I was aware that was the only incident that occurred that night.
This morning he called me into his bedroom and told me that he had seen a being in his bedroom around 6:00 AM. He said that it appeared to be self illuminating. “Very bright” He said it was about my height, which is approximately 5 foot five inches and that it glowed and it had no face. He said it’s head was a little larger than human. He said when he saw it; the being was near the bedroom door, apparently when it realized my husband was watching it, the being looked slightly over its shoulder at my husband and very quickly exited the bedroom. My husband said it had no discernible features, it had no face. It was then he told me that the night he’s seen the laser, he’d had also seen an approx 3 foot by 3 foot square shape projected on the mirror of his closet doors. He said it looked like a large picture frame and that there was a very bright light illuminating from within it, with strange black symbols that resembled hieroglyphic‘s inside of what he described as small boxes they were also illuminated. He said he’s never seen anything like them before. I asked him why he hadn’t mentioned this before. He told me that he couldn’t understand how there was this large imagine in his mirror, because there are no windows on the west wall of his bedroom, so it couldn’t have been a reflection. He wasn’t going to mention it until he saw the being this morning. He told me he’s very unnerved about these sightings, since they are becoming repetitive. I’m concerned because my husband is not one to make-up stories. He’s very practical down to earth kind of person. If he said he saw something, he did. But he wouldn’t file this report however, he did give me permission to file on his behalf.
And that he will relate the story if asked about it. I found some pictures on the internet and asked if any were similar to what he saw in projected on the mirror. He choose this picture, as it was very close to what he saw.
VIDEO: Nieuwe foto's van Roswell-crash 'bewijzen dat aliens bestaan'
VIDEO: Nieuwe foto’s van Roswell-crash ‘bewijzen dat aliens bestaan’
In mei zullen foto’s naar buiten worden gebracht waarop naar verluidt een buitenaards wezen te zien is dat in 1947 bij Roswell is neergestort. Dat meldt de Britse krant Metro.
Verschillende sites claimen dat de foto’s ‘bewijzen dat aliens bestaan’. De afbeeldingen zouden zijn gevonden in een envelop op een zolder, achtergelaten door een geoloog die in de jaren veertig werkzaam was in de buurt van Roswell.
De foto’s zullen op 5 mei aanstaande worden getoond tijdens een ceremonie in het Auditorio Nacional in Mexico-Stad, die live wordt uitgezonden. In dit centrum is ruimte voor 10.000 mensen.
Onderzoeker Anthony Baraglia zei: “Wetenschappers hebben zich erover gebogen en zij hebben vastgesteld dat het echte beelden zijn uit 1947. De enige conclusie is: deze humanoïde is geen misvormd persoon, mummie, dummy, aap of gesneuvelde militair. Het is geen wezen dat van de aarde afkomstig is.”
Schrijver Nigel Watson wees erop dat andere ufologen sceptischer zijn omdat het meeste bewijs voor de Roswell-crash in het verleden nep is gebleken. De films die zijn gemaakt over de autopsie op een buitenaards lichaam, bleken achteraf in scène te zijn gezet. Het echte beeldmateriaal was verloren gegaan of vernietigd, aldus Watson.
Naast Roswell zijn er sinds 1947 nog zo’n 300 andere UFO-incidenten geweest, waarbij vliegende schotels op aarde crashten. Net als het Roswellincident worden ze naarmate de tijd verstrijkt steeds spectaculairder en mysterieuzer.
Ook hij is in de database aan het grasduinen op 10 februari wanneer hij de volgende UFO ter grootte van de maan ontdekt aan het oppervlak van de zon.
Volgens Scott is er geen enkele twijfel mogelijk en hebben we hier te maken met een UFO, vergelijkbaar zoals die werd waargenomen door Russische wetenschappers.
Om dat aan te tonen, heeft hij een tweede opname van ongeveer een kwartier later dan de bovenstaande, waarop te zien is dat de UFO is verdwenen.
De schepen die worden waargenomen rondom de zon zijn enorm qua grootte. Groot genoeg om het belangrijkste deel van de bevolking van deze planeet naar een locatie elders in het universum te brengen.
Wie weet is deze optie nieteens zo ver gezocht als je wellicht op het eerste gezicht zou kunnen denken.
Sovereignty group Lawful Hawaiian Government constructed a UFO landing pad and the so-called Star Visitor Center on a rocky, lava field of Big Island to welcome ET visitors.
Waiting for space alien visitors is perhaps similar to the hope of reinstating the Hawaiian Kingdom of over 120 years ago. However, the Lawful Hawaiian Government made alien welcome pad last year, hoping that it could help advertise its cause.
According to Big Island coordinator, Garry Hoffeld, the idea of creating UFO landing pad is to announce to the world, as well as to the universe, that Hawaii is a neutral country and interested in making peaceful relationships with anyone in the world and even from outside Earth.
It appears that the group wants to let the people in the world know that the UFO landing strip is more a symbolic build than a literal UFO touchdown. The location was chosen for two major reasons; the natural beauty of the place and the proximity to Uncle Robert’s bar. The owner of the restaurant, Hawaiian noble Robert Keliihoomalu, built the E.T.-beckoning spot. Keliihoomalu believes that native Hawaiians were coming from Pleiades descended to Earth.
If aliens were going to visit Earth and make their presence known, hopefully they will realize that Hawaii would be a nice area to hold the welcoming party.
Check out this interesting UFO video of an unknown lights in formation. This was filmed over Phoenix, Arizona on 2nd February 2015. Very similar sighting wes recorded over Arizona a few days ago and there are also some resemblance to the famous Phoenix lights from 1997 and 2007.
Looking over the manuscript, I realized this was the missing “Key” to the puzzle and that the book by Bryce would now take on a greater importance beyond being just a backlist title of little consequence. Thus the book you are now either holding in your hands or reading as an e-book. After doing some research, it became apparent that UFOs had impacted Bryce's life more than he had let on. There were even elements of his experiences which he had never let out of the bag. But now, with the help of Marc Brinkerhoff’s and Shawn Robbins’ recollections, we are able to put this jigsaw puzzle together.
Frankly, I can't help but believe that somehow Bryce was behind all this. As he looked down from some lofty place in space or a heavenly realm, I am sure he wanted others to discover the glory of his transformation experiences so that they might experience their own.
I think Bryce put me up to doing this because his complete story was never really told.

BRYCE BOND – ONBOARD A PHYSICAL UFO AND HIS ALIEN ENCOUNTER OF THE THIRD KIND
By Marc Brinkerhoff
The picture that accompanies this personal tribute is a graphite illustration that I did under my close friend Bryce Bond's guidance and direction in 1987. It depicts his physical onboard spaceship encounter with spiritually advanced alien beings. The UFO encounter happened in the area called Cradle Hill in Warminster, Wiltshire, England, in 1974. He had several UFO experiences on subsequent nights at that same location. He was at first very hesitant to discuss his closer-than-life-encounter with a group of extraterrestrials in what for over a decade remained a virtual UFO hotspot where a person could see a UFO on almost any given occasion.
Bryce Bond was visiting Arthur Shuttlewood, who was showing a group of people the area where the UFO sightings were frequently occurring. Arthur lived in Warminster on Portnoy Street. The time was around 2:00 PM on a week day. Arthur took them down a dirt road on a farm where the owners knew Arthur and allowed people to go in the back field with him. Arthur was discussing the “Invisible Walker” with the group, explaining how in certain areas you can hear the footsteps of someone very big walking and see the grass get pushed down, but there would be no physical person there. He described how the footsteps will go past a person and stop a short distance away. No one was ever hurt by the “Invisible Walker,” just amazed and bewildered. Bryce had experienced the “Invisible Walker” a couple of times in Warminster, and so did I when I was out in the Starr Hill Valley fields. They often saw “nothing” – maybe a vague outline of a tall being against a hedge or fence. But they could hear the footsteps shuffling around on gravel and stone pavement as well as lumbering through the hedge rows.
While Arthur was talking to the people, he encouraged them to go off to sky-watch a little and commune with the energies and meditate. So, Bryce took off down a little dirt tractor path that led to another field. He said he ducked through a fence and went into a field with long, golden, 18-inch-tall grass or possibly hay. He walked about 20 to 30 feet in and stopped and stood for a while, just looking at the sky for UFOs. He sent out telepathic thoughts of peace and love to the universe. After a while, he noticed that he didn't hear the people in Shuttlewood’s group talking anymore and thought they had all just settled down to meditate a bit.
Bryce said it was a beautiful day with the sun shining and some clouds moving slowly in the sky. He was standing in the field and had closed his eyes to send out a prayer when he noticed an unusual energy building up around his aura. He thought it was very peaceful and had a loving vibration, as if he was being caressed by Angels.
Suddenly he smelled the intense and intoxicating beautiful scent of Lily of the Valley flowers with a mixture of honey! He felt very calm and almost euphoric with the smell and the energy surrounding him. He began to feel a tingling pressure in his temples and surrounding his head; he also heard a strange whirring sound above him. He tried to look up and turn around and he couldn't. He was held still in place by a gentle pressure. He opened his eyes and could see forming around him a perfect circle in the grass as it was being pressed gently down in a clockwise direction. Then the energy changed in front of his eyes, a bit blurry for a few seconds.
Then he could see, in the energy superimposed around him with the grass still moving, the interior of a spaceship and some translucent people! In a few more seconds he was standing in a physical spaceship and was confronted with a beautiful space woman with large blue eyes, dark hair, and dressed in a form-fitting, medium-blue space suit. In front of Bryce stood a smiling benevolent alien being who was about seven feet tall. He had kind, large, amber-green eyes, no hair, a short and somewhat flattened nose, very small ears and long slender fingers. He was wearing a dark blue-gray spacesuit with a reflective belt and a shimmering silver white cape.
Both of the aliens spoke to Bryce telepathically and asked him some questions, like “How are you feeling? Are you thirsty?” and said “We have been watching you for some time.” Then he had telepathic information transferred into his thoughts and mind regarding energy and healing. He said the alien with the cape was a wise teacher or master and he felt humbled in front of him.
He remembered that for a second he thought of how beautiful the woman was and he felt that she heard his thoughts and looked down and smiled. He told me that he then felt embarrassed to have thought that because he knew she was very advanced spiritually and he was acting like a lustful man in his mind. The space woman sent him a thought of “It's ok, let it go.” Then she directed him to look out the porthole windows. Bryce said he could see our planet Earth in the distance with the stars. He also recalled how beautiful and blue the planet was from space.
After what seemed like almost 15 minutes or so, Bryce was told they were bringing him back, and that someday maybe they would meet again. He thanked them all for the experience and said “God bless you all.” The aliens smiled at him and said “Good-bye and bless you too.” Bryce told me he suddenly began feeling the tingling energy throughout his body with the smell of flowers surrounding him! Then in seconds he was standing back in the golden grass again, but the sky was now a bit darker. He was standing in the center of a perfect crop circle!
After covering UFOs, alien abduction and many other paranormal subjects for over 25 years, I thought I’d seen it all. But once again, publisher, editor, writer and talk show host Timothy Green Beckley has shown me just how wrong that assumption can be. Tim recently sent me a book that contains two full-length tomes by the late contactee Orfeo Angelucci combined in one volume. Though the books were originally published in the 1950s, they contain so much that is relevant and precious about UFO contact and the mortals who come under their purview for reasons they themselves do not comprehend.
In the case of Orfeo Angelucci, I would hazard a guess that he was chosen because of his sincere, guileless innocence. Orfeo was 39 years old when he had his first consciously-recalled alien encounter, but there is an undeniable childlike quality that comes across in his writing that makes it difficult to imagine he was seeking fame or attention or money. He honestly believed that the Space Brothers – who had walked into his life from out of the blue – had charged him with the mission of making their presence and good intentions for mankind known.
Orfeo’s first book was called “The Secret of the Saucers” and came out in 1955. He begins by telling the story of his childhood, which he spent a great deal of in bed due to a poorly diagnosed aliment the doctors called “constitutional inadequacy.” The symptoms included great physical weakness, lassitude, lack of appetite and malnutrition. He tired easily and the slightest physical effort left him weak and exhausted. He also suffered from migraine headaches and it seemed at times that his every nerve and muscle ached with excruciating pain.
When Orfeo was in the ninth grade, his doctors advised that he leave school and continue his studies at home. Orfeo liked the arrangement because it allowed him to do all the reading in the various sciences that he wished. After a year of plenty of rest and a weight-building diet, the doctors said he could return to school. But since his family had suffered some financial reverses in the meantime, it was decided that he should instead go to work for his uncle’s flooring and stucco company. Which again left him with the freedom to voraciously read books on science.
In 1936, Orfeo met his future bride, Mabel Borgianini, an Italian girl who he says was a direct descendant of the famous Italian Borgias. Her happy, cheerful disposition helped keep Orfeo from brooding over his ill health. A year after their marriage, they had their first son, Raymond. But a short while later, Orfeo had a complete physical breakdown that left him bedridden in a hospital for 18 months. His body and mind were so tortured that he longed for the release of physical death. When he recovered, against all odds, he returned to work and began classes in night school, determined to pursue his interest in the sciences.
Orfeo had had a lifelong phobia about thunderstorms, which had caused him miserable physical and psychological symptoms since he was a child. Because his beloved native New Jersey was often subject to violent thunderstorms, he was glad when Mabel began to talk of moving to the West Coast, where thunderstorms rarely happened. In November 1947, Orfeo, Mabel, Richard and their second son, Raymond, set out by car for Los Angeles. After spending some pleasant, “touristy” time exploring the region, the Angeluccis decided to make their home there.
This period, 1947 and afterwards, was when flying saucers first began to make headlines worldwide. Orfeo was completely disinterested in the phenomenon and figured they were only a new type of aircraft being secretly developed and that the information would come out in due time. Orfeo found work at the Lockheed Aircraft plant in Burbank in their metal fabrication department and, later, their plastics division, working the swing shift.
In “The Secret of the Saucers,” Orfeo recalls the exact date – Friday, May 23, 1952 – when his journey of discovery and revelation began. He was at his job at Lockheed when, around 11 P.M., he felt an odd pricking sensation running through his hands and arms and up to the back of his neck along with a slight heart palpitation and a sense of his nerves being on edge. These were the familiar symptoms that always came before a bad electrical storm. He expected to see heavy threatening clouds in the sky, but the Southern California night was exceptionally clear and the stars were bright. He was puzzled but continued working. When the quitting whistle sounded at 12:30 A.M., he was exhausted almost beyond his capacity to endure.
As he drove home, he felt increasingly nervous and tense and said he sensed a force of some kind around him. He wondered if his old illness was returning and whether he might again be confined to bed with excruciating pain. He noticed that his eyesight was glazing over and the sounds of the traffic around him were strangely muffled and far away now. The night seemed to be growing brighter, as though enveloped in a soft golden haze.
Next, he saw a red, faintly glowing oval-shaped object that began to increase in brilliance. The object stayed in view as he continued to drive home until it hovered over a deserted stretch of road called Forest Lawn Drive. As the pain of his symptoms increased, the object veered sharply to the right. It was then that it occurred to Orfeo that he might be seeing a flying saucer, the sort of thing he had read about for years. Two smaller objects, green in color, came out of the red object and hovered only a few feet away. They were three feet in diameter and hung there silently while their green light fluctuated rhythmically.
Then, from what seemed to be an area between the two eerie balls of green fire, came a masculine voice speaking perfect English. Orfeo writes that at that point he was in a state of shock and therefore cannot report the conversation verbatim. He does recall, however, that the first words spoken to him were, “Don’t be afraid, Orfeo. We are friends!” Then the voice asked him to exit his car, which he did, in spite of feeling so weak and shaky that he could barely stand.
The kindly voice told Orfeo that the green objects were “instruments of transmission and reception” unlike anything developed on Earth and that they were being used for Orfeo to communicate with “friends from another world.” Orfeo dimly remembered thinking that he should say something but was stunned into utter silence, wondering if he had completely lost his mind.
The voice began to speak to Orfeo about things no stranger could know, at which point all traces of fear left Orfeo. But he suddenly felt thirsty. The voice, apparently reading his mind, directed Orfeo to drink from a goblet that suddenly appeared on his car’s fender. Drinking the delicious beverage caused his various discomforts to vanish completely and gave him a sensation of strength and well-being. He thanked the voice and the goblet disappeared.
Then, in the area between the two green fireballs, a luminous, three-dimensional television screen began to gradually take form. Images of the heads and shoulders of two persons appeared on the screen, one male and one female. The two figures struck Orfeo as “being the ultimate of perfection. There was an impressive nobility about them” and they “emanated a seeming radiance that filled me with wonder.” Orfeo also had the confusing feeling that the two figures were familiar, as though previous encounters with them were stored in his memory
They seemed able to read his mind at its deepest levels, and Orfeo felt he stood before them in a “kind of spiritual nakedness.” There seemed to be a telepathic exchange of information happening, with thoughts and understandings that would have taken hours of normal conversation passing between Orfeo and the people on the screen in mere seconds. Then the two figures faded and the screen vanished. Orfeo was on the point of blacking out when the initial voice spoke again, saying that Orfeo was understandably confused but that he would comprehend everything that happened later on. “The road will be open, Orfeo,” the voice assured him.
The thought flashed through Orfeo’s mind, “Why have they contacted me – a humble aircraft worker – a nobody?”
The voice explained that their selection process was not conducted with the limited senses of man but was based on their superior understanding of what an individual Earthling really is. They were also aware of how flying saucers were a source of humor to most people, as it was meant to be. Earth was supposed to become accustomed gradually to the idea of space visitors, and it was good that they be taken lightly at first for the sake of human civilization’s stability.
Although the Space Brothers would help mankind as best they could, there were cosmic laws that prohibited interfering too directly in the evolution of a given planet. Earth must work out its own destiny, but the danger is greater than people realized. The voice alluded to an evil enemy that was preparing secretly and in vast numbers to do what damage it could to the people of Earth. This is interesting because it involves a more complicated moral scenario than mere alien saviors preaching an impossible kind of “sweetness and light.” Instead, they freely acknowledge that there are many battles to be fought and that mankind is up against subtle, insidious influences intended to lead him on the path to his own destruction.
“As I listened to that kind, gentle voice,” Orfeo writes, “I began to feel a warm, glowing wave of love enfold me; so powerful that it seemed as a tangible soft, golden light. For a wonderful moment I felt infinitely greater, finer and stronger than I knew myself to be. It was as though momentarily I had transcended mortality and was somehow related to these superior beings.”
The voice told Orfeo that he would be contacted again and said a warm goodnight, calling Orfeo “friend.”
“Bewilderment, incredulity, shock and stark fear flooded over me,” Orfeo writes. “I had the sudden conviction that I had lost my mind and gone raving mad. What I had witnessed, I felt, just couldn’t have happened.”
He got in his car and drove home, desperate to return to “the world of sane reality.” Mabel asked why he was so late and looked so terrified. He said he would tell her tomorrow, which he spent in bed, still feeling the aftereffects of what he’d experienced. When he told Mabel the incredible story the following day, she believed him, saying he had always been truthful with her.
Two months later, in July 1952, Orfeo had an experience onboard a UFO in which he was able to view the Earth from outer space. Again, an alien voice spoke to Orfeo as the awestruck mortal sat in a form-fitting chair on the craft: “Orfeo, you are looking upon Earth – your home! From here, over a thousand miles away in space, it appears as the most beautiful planet in the heavens and a haven of peace and tranquility. But you and your Earthly brothers know the true conditions there.”
As he listened to the tender, gentle intonations of the wonderful voice, Orfeo began to be overwhelmed by sadness and wept, something he had not done since childhood. The tears worked to cleanse and purify him and to free him from the unfeeling shell of “The Reasoner” he had come to pride himself on being as an adult.
The voice seemed to join in Orfeo’s weeping and said, “For all of its apparent beauty, Earth is a purgatorial world among the planets evolving intelligent life. Hate, selfishness and cruelty rise from many parts of it like a dark mist.”
Again, the Space Brothers acknowledge their opposition to a dark and evil force working in our world, something similar to the war between the Archangel Michael and Satan prophesied in the Book of Revelation. The allusion to an armed conflict between good and evil over the destiny of mankind adds a degree of moral complexity to the overall mix that ups the realism factor greatly.
Orfeo is then taken further out into space and shown demonstrations of various other types of alien spacecraft while the voice continues to speak of the love for mankind that is inherent in everything the Space Brothers do. Orfeo hears beautiful music as he flies out into deep space, the music of the spheres, an expression of how vibrantly alive the stars and planets are throughout the universe. But he continues to cry in shame, as though repenting for the sins of all mankind at once.
“I wondered how those great beings could love such a one as I,” he writes, “or any of mankind.”
This echoes the Bible, Psalm 8: 3-4, “When I look at thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars which thou hast established; what is man that thou art mindful of him, and the son of man that thou dost care for him?” This is a recurring pattern among many contactees of Orfeo’s period and after him as well. Their experiences relate to what is found in ancient scriptures, including the Bible, seamlessly and without apparent conscious effort on the contactee’s part. One is therefore led to conclude that the Space Brothers of our present era are the same entities we call Ancient Astronauts when they appear in the context of our earliest religious writings. The fact that they also seem to be at war with some form of devil – with mankind as the battlefield – also speaks to their timeless presence among us. They are more ancient than we know what ancient means.
Orfeo then undergoes a baptism not in water but in light. He sees his entire life flash before his eyes in a panoramic vision and fears that he is dying. He regains something more like normal consciousness and is returned home. He had felt a burning sensation below his heart during his profound “initiation,” and as he undressed for bed he saw a circular burn about the size of a quarter in that same place. He felt it was a sign from the Space Brothers intended to help him remember that the experience had been physically real as he faced the cold light of the coming days.
Orfeo’s next adventure with the Space Brothers was a face-to-face meeting with a being he called Neptune. It was August 2, 1952, and Orfeo was taking a late evening stroll near the Hyperion Avenue Freeway Bridge, where he had earlier seen the ship that took him out into space. Neptune appeared from out of the darkness and called out, “Greetings, Orfeo!” The Space Brother had the same noble, handsome countenance as the figures Orfeo had seen on the mysterious viewing screen during his first encounter.
After some introductory chitchat, Neptune began to deliver the same woeful message about Earth and its dark future.
“I may tell you,” Neptune said, “that, to the entities of certain other worlds, Earth is regarded as ‘the accursed planet,’ and ‘the home of reprobate, fallen ones.’ Others call your Earth ‘the home of sorrows.’ For Earth’s evolution is evolution through pain, sorrow, sin, suffering and the illusion of physical death.”
One is reminded that one of the most basic tenets of the Buddha is that, “All life is sorrowful,” but Neptune also prophesies that mankind will survive the inevitable warfare of Armageddon and rejoice in the coming of the New Age in which people will forget their bitter hurts and build constructively together upon the solid foundation of the Brotherhood of Man. He tells Orfeo not to doubt the reality of what he is experiencing and that Orfeo’s account of his encounters will give greater faith and inner conviction to only a few – but it is an important few.
“The road is open now,” Neptune said. “Walk it as you will.”
Orfeo had been writing about his experiences and hoped to find a publisher willing to believe his story enough to print his manuscript and get it out before the public. When there were no takers, he began to consider the idea of self-publishing his narrative in newspaper form and calling it “The Twentieth Century Times,” in spite of Mabel’s objections.
Orfeo was already suffering a great deal of “ribbing” about his interest in UFOs from his coworkers, and seeking further public attention would make life even more difficult for his sons, whose schoolmates had learned of his flying saucer fascination. But the Space Brothers had given him such an intense sense of mission about spreading the word about them that he pressed on heedlessly in his efforts to get his story out. He was also giving weekly lectures about the Space Brothers to increasingly larger crowds at a local social club and was pleased to find a sympathetic, believing group of kindred spirits.
With the help of Max Miller, the president of Flying Saucers International, an organization devoted to the study of UFOs, Orfeo put together the Flying Saucer Convention at the Hollywood Hotel. The featured speakers included Frank Scully, George Van Tassel and George Adamski, some of the biggest names in the field at the time. The crowds overflowed out onto Hollywood Boulevard to hear the message, but there were also the obligatory negative voices being heard as well. A woman who had been continually buttonholing Orfeo to quote the scriptures and in general revile his efforts finally succeeded in getting Orfeo to display some real anger, an unusual emotion for him to feel.
“When at last I literally blew my top,” Orfeo writes, “she joyfully picked up her data and departed, shouting that my temper proved I was an agent of the devil.”
Orfeo also reports on attending a convention of science fiction writers at the Hotel Commodore in Los Angeles where he was surprised to learn that UFOs were now a taboo subject for this particular kind of literati. Orfeo says this was most likely due to the fact that the Space Brothers are beautiful, heavenly entities but it was tales of horror and fear that sold books.
“But the joke is on them,”Orfeo writes, “for reality has slipped quietly past them and established new frontiers of its own. The science-fictioneers were induced by subtle forces to ignore flying saucers, as were many other materialistic sources of information. During the welcome lull, the actual flying saucer phenomenon and the extraterrestrials were left to the inexperienced but honest handling of rank amateurs. At first these men were inept and inarticulate, but they are finding their voices and their numbers are rapidly increasing. The Space Brothers had actually only cleared the atmosphere for them. Had the professional spinners of horror fiction stuck to the theme of flying saucers, the true contacts should never have been able to perform their missions.”
Whitley Strieber, the abductee whose bestseller “Communion” put the alien abduction phenomenon in the spotlight for a new and sizable audience in the 1980s, once made a similar remark. He said the Visitors had ultimately bypassed the government and the media and gone straight to the people who interested them, what we might call a “populist” or grassroots effort independent of the sanctions of officialdom.
There is much more to the story Orfeo Angelucci tells in “The Secret of the Saucers,” including a brief but beautiful conversation with the living Jesus Christ and a short visit to the paradise that is the Space Brothers’ home world. Orfeo died in 1993 at the age of 81 and presumably went to dwell there with them as he awaits the New Age on Earth that his life and work were part of creating.
“A popular government without popular information, or the means of acquiring it, is but a prologue to a farce or a tragedy, or perhaps both.”
James Madison, Jr. was an American statesman, political theorist and the fourth President of the United States.
“There are two things I know with certainty about the UFO phenomena. One is that the phenomenon is real,” says author Robert Salas, “that is, real objects of unearthly origin are visiting our airspace. My second certainty is that the phenomenon of people being abducted by sentient beings who are operating these unknown craft, is also a reality these conclusions do not come hypotheses, guesses, theories, or concepts that I used to convince myself of these realities. They come from my life experiences.”

SHUTDOWN
That stentorian statement is backed by Robert Salas’ 32 years he had worked for the government, seven years on active duty as a graduate of the U.S Air Force Academy, a weapons controller, launch officer for intercontinental ballistic missiles, Air Force propulsion engineer at Martin-Marietta on the Titan III Program, and 21 years for the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) as an aircraft structure engineer.
Nothing, however, gives him as much spiritual and etheric power to speak on the topic as to when he was a witness to a March 24, 1967 shutdown of 10 ballistic missiles that went dead – 20 shutdowns in a week – a “crap out” from their alert status.
MARCH 16, 1967
(“UFOs were seen more frequently around areas vital to the defense of the United States. The Los Alamos-Albuquerque area, Oak Ridge, and White Sands Proving Ground rated high.” Ruppelt, Edward J. The Report on Unidentified Flying Objects, Ace Books, Inc., 1956, page 155. [Captain Ruppelt was Chief of the Air Force's "Project Blue Book" from 1951 to Sept. 1953, an operation of the "Air Technical Intelligence Center" [ATIC]. On 21 May 1951, the United States Air Force established ATIC as a field activity of the Assistant Chief of Staff forIntelligence].)
Salas recounts events that “Airman Smith” (a pseudonym) participated in an invasion when he worked at Echo Site on March 16, 1967 as a targeting technician. Smith was notified that the missiles “had gone down” as they were working on the Echo Flight LF. At some point into the acquisition of the autocollimator, a failure occurred.
“About this time, the top side security guard shook the ladder and motioned for Airman Smith to come up the ladder,” says Salas. “When he reached ground level, he could see a large, glowing, orange-colored sphere, stationary at about 30 degrees from the horizon, in the direction of the gate and close to the site.”
Airman Smith notified the team chief who was visibly frightened by the sight of the object. Smith ordered the “shaken” guard to report the sighting to the Wing Command Post through the Sensitive Information Network (SIN), but the line would not connect. Smith and two other team-members tried the startup procedure several times, only to “crap out” at collimator acquisition.
The object was still above the site while this was happening. Smith observed the object to pulsate and give off a low hum and he felt an electrostatic energy coming from the object.
“The object was present for at least an hour; however, the guard told him later that it would periodically move away for a short time and then return,” says Salas. “After considerable inhibiting the startup, it left the area; the missile was then brought back to Alert status with no anomalies whatever during collimator acquisition.”
Salas also relates an incident of a technician called “Tex” (this may have also been ‘Smith’) to UFO researchers Sean Casteel and John Weigle (October 29, 2013). They relate the tale:
“Further confirmation came from a source called ‘Tex,’ who prefers to remain anonymous since he is currently the vice president of a prominent aerospace company. Tex said that he was working through a checklist to bring an Echo Flight missile back online when a guard called him to the surface to see a UFO hovering over the site. He returned to his work and started to bring the missile back up.
‘He gets to a certain point in the checklist,’ Salas said, ‘and the missile shuts down again. This object is still up there. In fact, he can feel the electrical energy coming down the tube right where he is. He said he felt almost like he was immersed in static electricity. But he tried this many, many times, he said, trying to bring the missile back up on alert using his checklist. When he got to this particular point on the checklist, he said, the missile shut down again.’
Salas received a call from the flight security controller (FSC) reporting strange “lights” about the facility observed by several security personnel. The lights moved erratically and would sometimes hover and reverse direction, often at high speeds. The FSC called again and agitatedly told that an object was hovering over the front gate. Salas ordered them to stand ready with weapons and to let no one enter.
Salas alerted Colonel Fred Meiwald as they began to get audible alarms and indicator lights on their status board. “All of our missiles were indicating NO-GO; they were all disabled.”
Fred Meiwald phoned in the NO-GO status at Oscar Flight to the Wing Command Post. Meiwald stated: “The same thing happened at another flight!” Salas later discovered the Oscar Flight incident was not mentioned in any of the reports of the Echo Flight investigation.
Lieutenant Robert Jamison was a targeting officer assigned to the 341st Missile Maintenance Squadron. He states in his affidavit that he was called out one evening to restart Oscar Flight – all ten missiles were NO-GO. Jamison testified that he had to wait about three hours before he was given a go-ahead to proceed to Oscar Flight. Jamison tells of the following facts:
# All targeting teams received a “special UFO briefing” prior to each dispatch for the next two weeks after the March incident.
# They were to report any UFO activity to the Missile Command Post and to take self-defense measures if necessary.
# Jamison was told about the Echo Flight shutdowns and UFO encounters.
Despite multiple witnessing and much evidence, Lieutenant Colonel Lewis Chase of the Air Force Chief of Staff and the Foreign Technology Division at Wright-Patterson (TDET) concluded the incident as having “no equipment malfunctions and abnormalities.” (Page 59.)
“These are blatantly false statements,” says Salas, “I and others can attest that were ordered not to talk to anyone about our incident and that our equipment certainly did malfunction.”
CONDON TRICKERY
Salas recounts his meeting with the infamous University of Colorado UFO Study Group (headed by Edward U. Condon). The Condon Committee, as it also became to be called, was eventually exposed as a negative, contrived and “orchestrated” study. Condon Committee investigator Dr. Roy Craig was asked to investigate at Malmstrom on October 9 to 14, 1967.
“The report of the shutdowns was cloaked in secrecy even before Craig arrived at Malmstrom,” says Salas, “the depth of that secrecy would soon be escalated after his arrival.”
Craig turned over what limited information he was given by the Air Force to co-investigator Condon Deputy Robert Low. It was Low that wrote in an August, 1966 memo: “The trick would be, I think, to describe the project so that, to the public, it would appear a totally objective study, but to the scientific community, would present the image of a group of nonbelievers trying their best to be objective, but having an almost zero expectation of finding a saucer.”
Largely because of his experience with UFOs, Salas becomes acquainted with the growth of the Military-Industrial-Complex and its skeleton of secrecy that smothers and is tyrannical. He traces the creation of the U.S Air Force Project Sign, watches it grow into an uglier Project Grudge, blossom again into a brighter Project Bluebook, only to be crushed beneath the CIA Robertson Committee Panel of the January, 1953 and its “disinformation campaign to discredit the phenomena…keeping the UFO question in the realm of incredulity…” (Page 25.)
Also pivotal to Salas and the UFO situation was the Manhattan Project and the creation of the atomic bomb: this strengthened the structure of “holding a secret (as having) always been a way of having some sort of power over others.”
THE LONG WALK
Salas speaks of the September 1948 Top Secret “Estimate of the Situation” that states that UFOs were spaceships:
“In fact, the highest levels of our government did know for certain that these were interplanetary,” says Salas, “because they had already recovered extraterrestrial craft and beings from the 1947 Roswell crash in New Mexico.” (Page 22.) Quickly following the 1947 UFO events began a series of happenings whose momentum in negativity has become nonstop ever since:
# The 1949 Project Grudge two-phase approach: explaining all UFO reports and, secondly, convincing the public, which Grudge pursued wholeheartedly.
# The ‘hardening” of the government’s seeming “negative approach” following the July, 1952 UFO buzzing of the nation’s Capital in Washington, D.C.
# The forming of the January 1953 CIA Robertson Committee Panel “to establish a disinformation campaign to discredit the phenomena.”
“Here in the United States this excessive secrecy has been ongoing for such a long period of time that many abuses by various government agencies,” says Salas, “have and continue to degrade the conversation of our democratic principles – government of, by, and for the people.”
# A 2010 information Security Oversight Office (ISOO) report indicates there were 76.8 million classification decisions, a more than 40 percent increase from 2009; a cost of $10.2 billion in 2010.
# To combat the UFO situation, governments have formed “a secret organizational structure, a cabal,” devoted to a huge zero-sum game with the public. “As long as there is no public disclosure about the UFO reality, the game goes on and there are no absolute winners or losers.” One side, the public (so-to-speak) would attempt to represent more credible UFO evidence; the cabal, on the other hand, consists of disinformation, debunking, silencing, intimidation, and ridicule. As the readers will see, Salas goes through several examples.

Ja hoor, deze foto is écht! Daar zorgde ruimtetelescoop Hubble voor. Dit is een beeld van een cluster van sterrenstelsels die luistert naar de naam SDSS J1038+4849. Niet echt romantisch zo net voor Valentijn, maar duidelijk voor wetenschappers. De brede 'smile' is te danken aan het speciale effect dat we kennen als zwaartekrachtlenseffect. Een glimlach vanop 7,5 miljard lichtjaren afstand.
De groep van sterrenstelsels genaamd J1038 - een cluster met triljoenen sterren - ligt op zo'n 4,5 miljard lichtjaren afstand van ons. Daarachter, op zo'n 7,5 miljard lichtjaren, liggen nog meer sterrenstelsels. Het licht daarvan passeert langs J1038 om de Aarde te bereiken. Door het effect van de zwaartekrachtlens krijgen we dit prachtige beeld voorgeschoteld vanuit de ruimte. De zwaartekracht van de sterrenstelsels buigt het licht om een sterrenstelsel heen.
Bij J1038 worden de ogen gevormd door twee elliptische sterrenstelsels in de achterliggende cluster. De neus is afkomstig van een kleiner sterrenstelsel (al dan niet behorend tot die cluster). De glimlach en de zijcontouren van het hoofd zijn eigenlijk de vervormde sterrenstelsels die veel verder weg liggen: een zogenaamde Einsteinring. Dit effect is een gevolg van de algemene relativiteitstheorie van Albert Einstein, die stelt dat niet alleen materie maar ook licht wordt beïnvloed door zwaartekracht.
En dan is er ook nog het verschijnsel van de pareidolie, waarbij de mens via interpretatie herkenbare dingen (zoals gezichten) ziet in onduidelijke waarnemingen.

Is dit de eerste onverwoestbare drone? - HLN . be
Is dit de eerste onverwoestbare drone? - HLN . be
Bron: dailymail.co.uk
Zwitserse ingenieurs hebben een nieuw type drone ontworpen dat 'onverwoestbaar' is. Concreet is de drone omringd door een kooi. Dat biedt bescherming en zorgt ervoor dat de drone niet neerstort als hij ergens tegenaan vliegt. De drone, met de naam Gimball, zal vaak gebruikt worden tijdens zoektochten of reddingsoperaties.
Momenteel zijn drones bijzonder kwetsbaar. Bij de minste verkeerde beweging loop je het risico dat de drone neerstort, waardoor zowel de drone als de camera kunnen beschadigd zijn. Zwitserse ingenieurs hebben daarom een 'onverwoestbare' drone gebouwd. Of beter: een drone die omringd is door een flexibele kooi. De rotorbladen en ingebouwde camera zijn op die manier optimaal beschermd is elke mogelijke situatie. Als de drone ergens tegenaan vliegt, zal hij dus niet beschadigd zijn of neerstorten. Integendeel. De drone zal terugkaatsen en gewoon zijn vlucht kunnen verderzetten.
De drone, met de naam Gimball, heeft het grote voordeel dat hij zonder problemen in gebouwen en smalle ruimtes kan vliegen. Daarom kan hij ook ingezet worden tijdens risicovolle ondernemingen in een rampgebied, tijdens een oorlogssituatie of bij reddingsoperaties. Verder kan de drone ook gebruikt worden om moeilijke bereikbare plaatsen te inspecteren. Zo kunnen bijvoorbeeld chemische lekken sneller opgespoord worden.
Ruimtevaart Op de Europese lanceerbasis Kourou in Frans-Guyana is het licht op groen gezet om komende woensdag een Europees experimenteel ruimtevliegtuig, de IXV, te lanceren. Dit hebben het Europese Ruimtevaartbureau ESA en het Europese lanceerbedrijf Arianespace getwitterd.
Na een laatste analyse is beslist om woensdag tussen 14.00 en 15.43 uur Belgische tijd een lichte Vega-draagraket te lanceren met in de nok de onbemande IXV.
"IXV" staat voor "Intermediate eXperimental Vehicle". Het ruimtetuig ziet eruit als een zeer kleine spaceshuttle ter grootte van een auto, en heeft min of meer de vorm van een strijkijzer.
Eenmaal afgezet door de Vega maakt het tuig autonoom een vlucht. De IXV duikt terug de atmosfeer in en moet uiteindelijk, afgeremd door een valscherm, 100 minuten na lancering in de Stille Oceaan neerploffen. Een schip moet de minishuttle bergen.
De ontwikkeling van het experimentele ruimtetuig duurde vijf jaar. Bedoeling van de missie is terugkeertechnologie voor toekomstig ruimtetransport uit te testen. Indien de test slaagt, betekent dit een wereldprimeur, aldus ESA-programmadirecteur Giorgio Tumino.
België participeert voor ongeveer tien procent in IXV. Sabca leverde de actuatoren (een soort hydraulische hefbomen) die de "flappen" besturen en die dezelfde zijn als voor de Vega. QinetiQ Space speelt een rol in de "avionics" en software. SAS is betrokken bij de "operaties" en het grondsegment. De Karolingische dochter van hoofdaannemer Thales Alenia Space werkte mee aan elektrische systemen op de grond en aan het elektronisch geheugen van het tuig zelf.

NC witness recalls triangle UFO over military terminal
NC witness recalls triangle UFO over military terminal
Two days after the event, the witness recalls reading a local newspaper article that mentioned local farmers finding triangular burn marks in their field. (Credit: Google)
A North Carolina witness recounts a 1979 UFO encounter at Military Ocean Terminal Sunny Point when a black triangle flew overhead, according to testimony in Case 63125 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The witness waited 35 years to report the UFO.
“It was in my bucket list to do so, so here I am,” the witness stated. “Back in 1979, I was a geologist employed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. My job was to accompany drilling rigs hired by them to ensure the desired objective was met. In this case, the objective was to locate cavernous areas underneath the railroad tracks that go through the military base. When found, these areas would be filled with cement to enforce the ground underneath the tracks.”
The witness explains the circumstances at the base that day.
“Trains often went by. My team and I had to have special permission to go onto the military base for this purpose. Our work hours were overnight, from about 11 p.m. through the morning.”
The site had a visitor that shift.
“On one particular night, the mayor of nearby Southport, NC, Eugene Tomlinson, stopped by at around midnight to see how things were going. He also was employed at the military base. I came down off the embankment on which the train tracks are on, and we stood and chatted. The only noise was from the drill rig, which wasn’t that bad since the rock was soft.”
The witness described a perfectly triangular, pure black ship, very slowly going along the track, in this 1979 North Carolina encounter. (Credit: Google)
And then the object appeared.
“Soon he said to me, ‘What in the hell is that?’ as he looked straight up. I looked up and couldn’t believe my eyeballs.” The witness described the object.
“There was a perfectly triangular, pure black ship, very slowly going along the track. It had no lights at all. In fact, if it weren’t for the fact that the ship totally blotted out the sky above it, you couldn’t see it. But it was absolutely there.”
The object was silent.
“I heard no sound from it; granted the drilling rig was running, I still don’t believe it made a sound. I stood and watched it as it slowly flew along the tracks and out of my sight. I never saw anything come out of it.”
The witness is not sure if there were additional witnesses.
“I do not know if the guys on the drilling rig saw it; I don’t think so, because not one of them said anything to me. However, Mr. Tomlinson certainly saw the craft. The weather was fine at the time; I don’t believe we were even allowed to work if there was threatening weather. In fact, I recall it being a starry night, and marveling at how the object blacked out the stars.”
The witness says the “clincher” came two days later.
“I had just gotten up and was having coffee and breakfast in a local restaurant. They had a local newspaper available, which I picked up. As I was eating, again my eyeballs popped out when I saw a little article about how local farmers were very annoyed by unexplained, triangular burn marks in their fields. I recall no details from the article, which was very short anyway.”
The witness is sorry that no evidence was collected.
“Oh how I wish I had kept that newspaper; I did not. I took no pictures. I have nothing but my memory and and a notation in my diary of what I saw that night. It is sharp, except for things like directions (N, S, E, W), time, etc. I know it was the summer or early fall, because the weather was very warm.”
The witness is unsure of exactly how large the craft was or far away it was.
“Also, it was impossible to say the distance to the craft or its size. There was nothing to contrast it against. However, it seemed to me to be flying low. It didn’t seem to be huge or anything. Sure was a perfect triangle. Not one light to be seen on it. We had no phones, so I don’t know if they would have been affected. I never felt fear or threatened; only astonishment. I am 100 percent certain that I saw a UFO that night. I will never forget it. I simply desire that my sighting be added to the history of sightings for that year and that place. Who knows? Maybe it’ll help one day.”
Military Ocean Terminal Sunny Point is the largest military terminal in the world. It serves as a transfer point between rail, trucks, and ships for the import and export of weapons, ammunition, explosives and military equipment for United States Army. The 596th Transportation Brigade, United States Army, operates the terminal. Built in 1951 and opened in 1955, the facility is situated on an Army-owned 8,500-acre site on the banks of the Cape Fear River in Brunswick and New Hanover counties of North Car }olina approximately 26 miles south of Wilmington.

Faked Flying Saucers – Serious Business
Faked Flying Saucers – Serious Business
It’s one of the oddest stories in UFO history. It’s also one of the least known and long forgotten. It’s the weird saga of an actor who never quite made the big time, but who produced a less than great movie on UFOs that got him into major problems with none other than the U.S. Air Force. Welcome to the bizarre tale of Mikel Conrad and The Flying Saucer.
Born in Ohio, in 1919, Mikel Conrad was an actor who appeared in approximately two dozen movies between 1947 and the late 1950s, most of which were/are forgettable and downright crummy. That includes 1952′s Untamed Women – which, by its title alone, should have made for great, exciting viewing. Unfortunately, it does not, I can assure you. But, it’s The Flying Saucer, which hit the cinemas in 1950, that we need to focus on.
Not only was Conrad the star of this priceless piece of UFO hokum, but he also produced it, directed it, and co-wrote it. It tells the story of a man named Mike Trent (played by Conrad) who takes a flight to Alaska to help a U.S. Secret Service agent investigate reports of local UFO activity. Of particular concern, the encounters are apparently of deep interest to pesky Russian agents who are prowling around.
Conrad, as the man behind the movie, personally ensured that the aforementioned agent was played by a hot babe. She was: actress Pat Garrison, who took on the role of the Secret Service’s Vee Langley. As Trent and Langley – clearly the Mulder and Scully of their day – investigate what’s afoot in the skies of Alaska, they learn something that was definitely not anticipated.
The Russians are not on the scene to uncover the truth about alien visitations to the Earth, after all. Rather, the flying saucers that are being seen, and astounding the populace in the process, are actually the creations of an American scientist who is determined to sell his inventions to the dastardly Reds – for a high price. Of course, Trent and Langley save the day. They prevent the evil commies from getting away with the saucer-shaped technology, and the free world sighs with relief.
There wasn’t (and still isn’t) anything particularly special about The Flying Saucer. It remains just one of many alien-themed movies that were made in the 1950s. But it does stand out for one, notable reason.
In September 1949, in the build-up to the release of the movie – and in an effort to create interest, and hopefully generate sizeable audiences – Conrad began loudly telling the U.S. media that he had got his hands on no less than 900 feet of genuine UFOs over Alaska. And adding to the intrigue, he informed the Dayton, Ohio Journal Herald that: “The saucer footage is locked in a bank vault. I’m not showing it to anyone yet.”
It was actually pure nonsense. There was no footage – at all. However, it wasn’t just the media and the public that took note of Conrad’s claims to have in his possession film that he described as showing “scenes of the saucer landing, taking off, flying and doing tricks.” Behind the scenes, wheels were turning – and turning fast. The Air Force got wind of the story, and of Conrad’s claims too, and decided they would very much like to see Conrad’s priceless footage.
The infamous CARET drone fake.
Also in September 1949, a Lt. Col. James O’Connell, District Commander with the USAF’s Office of Special Investigations (OSI), requested that the OSI office in Maywood, California should begin an investigation of Conrad and his claims of possessing priceless saucer footage. He was now a marked man. In no time at all, other offices of OSI were involved, as were staff from the Air Force’s UFO program, Project Grudge, and Air Materiel Command. And, just for good measure, the FBI undertook a background check on Conrad. Uh-oh.
OSI documents state that “…after some investigation in an effort to locate Mikel Conrad, it was determined that he was presently an actor-producer-writer in Los Angeles, California.” Conrad was quickly contacted by an OSI agent with the last name of Shiley, who made it clear to Conrad that he wanted to see both The Flying Saucer movie, as well as that 900-feet of film Conrad was loudly claiming to possess. The words “deep” and “shit” spring to mind.
On October 26, 1949, Agent Shiley attended a preview of Conrad’s movie. No word in the files as to whether he enjoyed it or not. But, far more important to Shiley was the film-footage, supposedly “locked in a bank vault.” Confronted by Agent Shiley, a very worried Conrad came clean and admitted that – to quote from the declassified Air Force files – the entire thing was a “figment of his [Conrad's] imagination” and “not a reality.”
Seeing that he might, by now, be might be in dire trouble, a groveling Conrad “apologized to Agent Shiley” and added that he was “sorry that he had misled the USAF.” Amusingly, even though he was concerned the Air Force might come down on him hard, Conrad asked Shiley, somewhat tactfully, if this could all be kept between the two of them and the Air Force, since he didn’t want any adverse publicity affecting the success of his movie!!!
The Air Force agreed, noting in its files, in slightly disapproving fashion, that it had “no interest in his picture.”
It’s notable that at the beginning of the movie a statement appears on-screen. It reads: “We gratefully acknowledge the cooperation of those in authority who made the release of ‘The Flying Saucer’ film possible at this time.” Another apology to officialdom, perhaps? Almost certainly. And, of course, it added a bit of intrigue for the viewers.
The strange saga of aliens over Alaska, The Flying Saucer, and a run-in with the Air Force for promoting a bogus UFO tale, was certainly the highlight of Mikel Conrad’s uneventful career. He died in Los Angeles in 1982, after years of living in obscurity, down on his pennies, and with a serious booze addiction. He was sixty-three. He would probably be very pleased to know that sixty-five years after his movie was made, and more than three decades after his death, The Flying Saucer is still being discussed.
(N.Morgan) Project Blue Beam is a program developed by NASA to simulate a fake UFO event. It can also be utilized to make virtual images that appear to be very real. It can use telepathy to impart ideas or thoughts into a target’s mind. The infamous NASA Blue Beam Project has four different steps in order to implement the new age religion with the antichrist at its head. We must remember that the new age religion is the very foundation for the new world government, without which religion the dictatorship of the new world order is completely impossible. I’ll repeat that: Without a universal belief in the new age religion, the success of the new world order will be impossible! That is why the Blue Beam Project is so important to them, but has been so well hidden until now.
There are 4 steps to this project, the first step concerns the breakdown of all archeological knowledge. It deals with the setup with artificially created earthquakes at certain precise locations on the planet where, supposedly, new discoveries will finally explain to all people the error of all fundamental religious doctrines. The falsification of this information will be used to make all nations believe that their religious doctrines have been misunderstood for centuries and misinterpreted.
Psychological preparations for that first step have already been implemented with the film, “2001: A Space Odyssey;” the Star Trek series, and “Star Wars;” all of which deal with invasions from space and the coming together of all nations to repel the invaders. The last films, “Jurassic Park,” deals with the theories of evolution, and claim God’s words are lies. What is important to understand in the first step is that those earthquakes will hit at different parts of the world where scientific and archeological teachings have indicated that arcane mysteries have been buried. By those types of earthquakes, it will possible for scientists to re-discover those arcane mysteries which will be used to discredit all fundamental religious doctrines.
To do that, they need some false “proof” from the far past that will prove to all nations that their religions have all been misinterpreted and misunderstood.
The second step involves a gigantic “space show” with three-dimensional optical holograms and sounds, laser projection of multiple holographic images to different parts of the world, each receiving a different image according to predominating regional national religious faith. This new “god’s” voice will be speaking in all languages. In order to understand that, we must study various secret services’ research done in the last 25 years. The Soviet’s have perfected an advanced computer, even exported them, and fed them with the minute physio-psycological particulars based on their studies of the anatomy and electro-mechanical composition of the human body, and the studies of the electrical, chemical and biological properties of the human brain.
These computers were fed, as well, with the languages of all human cultures and their meanings. The dialects of all cultures have been fed into the computers from satellite transmissions. The Soviets began to feed the computers with objective programs like the ones of the new messiah. It also seems that the Soviets – the new world order people – have resorted to suicidal methods with the human society by allocating electronic wavelengths for every person and every society and culture to induce suicidal thoughts if the person doesn’t comply with the dictates of the new world order.
There are two different aspects of step two. The first is the “space show.”
Where does the space show come from? The space show, the holographic images will be used in a simulation of the ending during which all nations will be shown scenes which will be the fulfillment of that which they desire to verify the prophecies and adversary events. These will be projected from satellites onto the sodium layer about 60 miles above the earth. We see tests every once in a while, but they are called UFOs and “flying saucers.” The result of these deliberately staged events will be to show the world the new “christ,” the new messiah, Maitreya, for the immediate implementation of the new world religion.
Enough truth will be foisted upon an unsuspecting world to hook them into the lie.
Thirdwill be the “Telepathic Electronic Two-Way.” This involves “telepathic and electronically augmented two-way communication where ELF, VLF and LF waves will reach each person from within his or her own mind.” These communications will fake a communication from god.
Fourth,according to Monast, would be “the universal supernatural manifestation with electronic means.” He said it would take on three specific “orientations.” One would simulate an alien invasion, which would then provoke nations with nuclear weapons to strike back.
ENORMOUS ALIEN CRAFT WITNESSED NEAR PRESIDENT BUSHES RESIDENCE JANUARY 8, 2006 …….. CRAWFORD TEXAS
A known sighting around President George W. Bush took place in Texas January 8, 2006. The people in Stephenville and Dublin Texas got some eye opening tourists passing though their area. Over a dozen people that included a pilot, county constable and many business owners state that they have seen a 300 meter long silent flying object that had brilliantly lit lights and flew low and fast to the ground. There’s no need to tell you that this shook up the little communities terribly. Some of the eyewitnesses also said that they saw US Air Force jets in hot pursuit behind the UFO. Radar reports that were released, show that eyewitnesses in Stephenville area were correct; something was seen on radar passing over them. The object was watched on radar as it flew over and past Stephenville and went directly toward President Bush’s Crawford Ranch, at 10 miles from the ranch the UFO went beyond the limits of the radar screen, or so the government agencies report. Leaving us with the unanswered question, how could any craft of such immense size come so close the Presidential ranch without getting a response from military aircraft? Unless of course, it was a military craft. MUFON Stephenville Radar Report, a 77-page document states, “This object was traveling to the southeast on a direct course towards the Crawford Ranch, also known as President Bush’s western White House. The last time the object was seen on radar at 8:00pm, it was continuing on a direct path to the Crawford Ranch and was only 10 miles away.” Although humorous, George W. Bush was traveling to the West Bank, Israel, Kuwait, Bahrain, The United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt from January 8-16, 2008, making it highly unlikely he was out on a joy ride in some huge alien craft, yet America does have numerous bases over there, which could in fact allow the USAF to experiment with alien ships without Americans noticing. So did the craft fly over the Crawford Ranch? That radar information was not given out to the public, but if it was headed in that direction on last radar report, most likely the answer is yes; it flew over the Presidential Ranch.
So if it was not a coincidence, were they perhaps looking for or working with the president? Or does a species from beyond, control American politics for their own gain? With President Bush being a former military fighter pilot, it may have been tempting for him to pilot such a craft as seen flying over his very ranch. Perhaps coincidence, or alien curiosity, only time will tell. Think about this, former president George W. Bush decided to go skydiving on his 80th and his 85th birthdays. His 85th birthday was not his second, but actually his 7th time that he skydived! This guy is a risk taker. If the Bushes are that wild even in old age, then can you imagine what an ex-military jet pilot would do if he saw a 300 meter alien ship in the hands of the USAF? It is very possible that President Bush used his authority to take the helm of this ship from a hidden base and flown it half way around the world in mere minutes to take a look at his own ranch from the air. Please note, that he has already done this in the past as proof. On May 2, 2003 President Bush used his authority to co-pilot a Navy S-3B Viking hover jet and flew it over to the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier. Bush stated that he did fly the craft alone for awhile stating, “Yes, I flew it. Yeah, of course, I liked it.” His past experience of being a F-102 fighter pilot back in the Texas Air National Guard, kicking it. It would be just natural for Bush to take control of an alien technology ship in USAF hands and fly it to the location he loves the most, Texas. Why the ranch, easy, to go home and impress his folks, namely George H.W. Bush with his new ride.

A New York witness in Suffolk County reported being woken up by a sound and seeing an entity standing nearby, according to testimony in Case 63119 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The witness was asleep in his bed when he woke to a “weird buzzing sound.”
“And I turned and looked and saw some kind of creature about 5 foot, 3 inches, standing silently in my bathroom doorway staring down at me,” the witness stated.
The witness described the entity.
“He wore a blue-ish spacesuit of some kind and had black boots on up to his knees. The outfit covered the whole body except its neck and face, which was horrible looking and very strange. He had a sad look on his face and it appeared like its skin was very wrinkled or had a melted-like appearance.”
The Suffolk County, NY, witness said he was awoken from sleep by a noise and saw an entity standing near his bed. (Credit: Google)
The witness became very frightened at this point and yelled out and tried to move away.
“I couldn’t move. Then I immediately passed out, which I’d never do if I’m facing something like that – an ugly spaceman in my house. I think it knocked me out somehow even though he just stood still and didn’t move towards me.”
The witness woke up five hours later and the entity was gone.
“I wasn’t sure about reporting this, but I thought after two days went by that maybe someone has seen this creature before. I pray I never see it ever again. I found a weird lump on my back around the shoulder blade that was never there before. And I have a weird pain in my shoulder now. It’s terrible these aliens can come in your home unannounced and late at night. That scares me a lot. I haven’t slept since it occurred.”
The witness also has a memory of an orb.
“I also remember seeing a bright white, glowing orb float past my bathroom window three days before this incident happened. I thought the orb was strange and didn’t pay it any more mind. It was the size of a baseball and was very luminescent. Light came off it like a tail and floated very much like a ghost and was silent. Maybe that’s how they find people. I’m no expert – just a wild guess.”
The witness also recalls seeing an orb the size of a baseball in his home three days earlier and wonders if the two events are connected. Pictured: The Montauk Lighthouse is a landmark of Suffolk County, NY. (Credit: Wikimedia Commons)

Wed 28 JAN 2015 18:32 – A photo taken by the Webcams de Mexico website shows an unidentified flying object around Colima's Volcan de Fuego during an emanation recorded this morning.
MEXICO CITY – The activity of Colima's Volcan de Fuego, recorded over recent weeks, featured an unusual element this morning.
The Webcams de Mexico site captured the moment in which an unidentified flying object (UFO) circles the area, which has for days exhibited emanations and explosions of incandescent material and volcanic ash falls.
The image was disseminated this morning and the size of the object is not fully apparent. However, its shape presents a slender upper section, a more protuberant midsection and two extremities in its lower end.
Intense activity at the volcano is ongoing, and is being monitored by the Protección Civil national office. A video was also published yesterday of the phenomenon known as a “golden explosion” in the colossal volcano's crater.

Domestic UFO sighting reports for the U.S. were up 44.5 percent in January 2015 over December reports filed.
Wyoming was the high reporting state by population with 3.47 sightings per million population and registering as a UFO Alert 2, according to witness reporting statistics released February 1, 2015, from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON).
New Mexico was the next highest reporting level by population – also earning a UFO Alert 2 with 3.36 sightings per million population.
Alaska was the only state rated a UFO Alert 3 with 2.73 reports per million population.
Four states were rated a UFO Alert 4 with the following statistics based on per million population: Oregon, 2.56; Utah, 2.45; Arizona, 2.44; and Missouri, 2.16. All other states received less than 2 sightings per million population and were ranked a UFO Alert 5.
As the highest reporting state per million residents, Wyoming received two reports.
There were a total of 575 U.S. reports filed in January 2015 compared with 398 in December 2014. Total worldwide sightings were 721 for January 2015 and 498 for December 2014.
The UFO Alert Rating System is based on five levels – 1 through 5 – where states with 4.01 or higher reports per million residents are rated an Alert 1; 3.01 – 4.0 reports are an Alert 2; 2.51 – 3.0 are an Alert 3; 2.01 – 2.5 are an Alert 4; and those states with 2.0 or lower are rated an Alert 5.
Disregarding populations, the top reporting states for January 2015 with 16 or more reports were: California, 90; Florida, 51; Texas, 37; Pennsylvania, 29; Arizona, 28; New York, 22; Oregon, 20; Illinois, 20; and Missouri, 18.
The sphere remains the most-reported UFO shape with 133 January cases. Other shape reports include: Triangle, 87; Star-like, 71; Circle, 66; Disc, 59; Unknown, 53; Other, 48; Fireball, 34; Oval, 31; Cylinder, 21; Boomerang, 17; N/A, 16; Square-Rectangular, 15; Cigar, 13; Blimp, 11; Diamond, 9; Chevron, 8; Flash, 8; Egg, 7; Saturn-like, 4; Teardrop, 4; Cone, 3; and Bullet-Missile, 1.
The object’s distance from the witness includes: Less than 100 feet, 102 cases; 101 to 500 feet, 101 cases; 501 feet to one mile, 152 cases; over one mile, 168 cases; unknown, 237; and no value stated, 25.
In addition, there were “26 landings, hoverings or takeoffs reported and 0 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.
Infographics for this reporting period were created by Outerplaces.com and include: Most Witnessed Shapes by State, Sightings By Country, Sightings By State, and Sightings Per Million People.
De beroemde Phoenix Lights zijn terug... ( Video )
De beroemde Phoenix Lights zijn terug... ( Video )
Phoenix in de Amerikaanse staat Arizona is met recht een UFO hotspot te noemen.
Na de beroemde Phoenix Lights uit 1997 heeft het er alle schijn van dat deze lichten weer helemaal terug zijn.
Het verhaal begint met de wereldberoemde Phoenix Lights op 13 maart 1997. Een fenomeen waarvan duizenden mensen getuige waren zoals wij eerder schreven.
Misschien wel één van de meest besproken UFO waarnemingen ooit betreft The Phoenix Lights.
Hiervan waren duizenden inwoners van de Amerikaanse stad getuige op 13 maart 1997. Mensen zagen deze UFO's in allerlei variaties. Van losse bolvormige objecten tot formaties in een V vorm en/of een driehoeksvorm.
In eerste instantie claimde de luchtmacht verantwoordelijkheid want het zouden fakkels geweest zijn die gebruikt waren als onderdeel van een oefening. Zeventien jaar later bleek dat er die avond helemaal geen vliegtuigen van de luchtmacht in de lucht waren geweest boven Phoenix.
Verder zijn er inmiddels beelden opgedoken van een militaire jet die een eind buiten de stad de UFO’s achterna joeg.
Eind vorig jaar het vreemde verhaal van een vrouw die met haar kind in een park loopt in Phoenix en daar een helikopter ziet die een UFO achterna zit.
En nu zijn zo te zien de originele Phoenix Lights weer terug.
Afgelopen 3 februari reed een stel in de buitenwijken van Phoenix toen ze rechts boven de snelweg een serie vreemde lichten waarnamen.
Lichten die of afzonderlijk waren of die toebehoorden aan één groot schip, maar waarvan duidelijk was dat ze in een bepaalde formatie vlogen.
Later vervaagde de formatie en op een zeker moment was er nog een grote ronde gloeiende oranjeachtige UFO te zien.
Er zijn ook hier weer meerdere getuigen die onafhankelijk van elkaar deze lichten hebben waargenomen, zoals in onderstaande video wordt uitgelegd.
Dat er zich vreemde dingen afspelen in de buurt van Phoenix lijkt duidelijk. Ook nu echter weer geen duidelijke antwoorden over wat het is waar we nu eigenlijk mee te maken hebben.
Er zijn videobeelden opgedoken waaruit zou kunnen blijken dat er tactische nucleaire wapens worden gebruikt in de Oekraïne.
De explosie vertoonde alle karakteristieke kenmerken van een dergelijke wapen, van een paddenstoelwolk tot een schokgolf.
Het gaat om een opname die is gemaakt met een mobiele telefoon, waarop duidelijk de paddenstoelwolk te zien is die gepaard gaat met een dergelijke nucleaire explosie, alsmede de schokgolf die daarbij optreedt.
Volgens experts zou uit de beelden blijken dat we hier te maken hebben met een kleine tactische nucleaire bom en niet een zware zoals die bijvoorbeeld wordt gebruikt om een complete stad van de kaart te vagen.
De opname werd door een man gefilmd vanuit zijn woning en door de schokgolf van de ontploffing brak het glas in de ramen van zijn huis.
Men kon de explosie op een afstand van tientallen kilometers zien en voelen. De volgende afbeelding, waarop de explosie ook is te zien, schijnt afkomstig te zijn van een NAVO satelliet.
De beelden zijn nogal overtuigend. Wat men in eerste instantie niet wist, was wie verantwoordelijk was voor de explosie. Later werd dat wel duidelijk.
Volgens Kiev gaat het hier niet om een nucleaire ontploffing, maar om een explosie van een chemische fabriek. Deze zou zijn ontstaan doordat de regeringstroepen de fabriek hadden bestookt met artillerievuur.
Weer andere berichten claimen dat het gaat om een munitiedepot van de separatisten wat door Kiev zou zijn geraakt.
Kortom, de berichten zijn weer behoorlijk tegenstrijdig.

Arizonian Couple Records On Video Similar Looking Lights That Appeared Over Phoenix In 1997
Arizonian Couple Records On Video Similar Looking Lights That Appeared Over Phoenix In 1997
Two residents of Goodyear believe they saw the legendary Phoenix Lights on Tuesday above the regional park, Estrella Mountains. Kerrie and Jeff Zakaras said they saw like a headlight but hovering from their viewpoint. The couple though still unbelievers despite witnessing the strange sighting.
Meanwhile, paranormal and sci-fi writer Alejandro Rojas believes in UFOs, but he thinks that the recent observation did not involve space aliens.
Rojas believes that they were flares from the military. Indeed, Luke Air Force Base officials confirmed that they were having a training that time of the evening, involving the use of flares.
Rojas said that while this particular case looks to be military exercises, there were still many mysterious cases. He explained that many UFO sightings in the area still left unsolved and no explanation yet even after careful investigation. Rojas said that he is a believer and mysterious activities out there still waiting for an answer.
The couple may be right that they only videotaped flares, but they were possibly wrong when they said they spotted the same event from the famous UFO Phoenix Lights that happened on March 13, 1997, Tuesday, in Phoenix, Arizona and Sonora, Mexico.
Thousands of people reported lights with varying descriptions between 7:30 PM and 10:30 PM (MST). It is believed that the incident involved two distinct events namely a triangular formation of lights spotted to pass above the state and a series of hovering lights seen in the Phoenix area.
Excavators Found Flying Saucer-Shaped Object Deep In Siberia
Excavators Found Flying Saucer-Shaped Object Deep In Siberia
Excavators working in Siberia, Russia discovered a disc-shaped object buried forty metres underground. Some sky watchers believe it fell from outer space. An intriguing image has made rounds online showing a man holding what thought to be a UFO that fell to Earth from space thousands of years ago – stayed deeply on the ground.
The mysterious flying saucer-shaped thing was recovered through digging during excavation operation by a coal mining company in Kuznetsk Basin in Siberia, Russia.
Excavators think the so-called craft is a man-made object, but still subject to further examination by archaeologists. Meanwhile, some UFO enthusiasts do believe it fell from the space.
Nearly a perfect circle, the bizarre object measures 1.2 metres in diameter and weighs 440lbs – equivalent to roughly 31 stones.
Forty-year-old excavator Boris Glazkov, who discovered the object, said he immediately saw the object because it was large and distinctive.
He said he had never encountered similar to it before in the middle of nowhere and added that it is a real mystery.
Thirty-eight-year-old Arthur Presnyakov, Glazkov’s colleague, said that they found two identical objects, but the other one broke when it was pulled out from the ground through the excavator bucket.
Presnyakov revealed that they were not careful when they pulled out the first one, the reason it broke. So, when they spotted the second similar object, they were more careful pulling it up with the excavator bucket.
The official owner of the object, Kuzbassrazrezugol mining company, said the object was unearthed at a depth of approximately 40 metres.
Given that deep, the object is estimated to be older than mammoth bones, which have been found in the same area at a depth of 25 metres. Scientists declined to comment on the matter while the investigation is still ongoing.
A witness recorded video of strange lights in the sky over Goodyear, Arizona on the night of February 2, 2015.
This witness noticed the unusual lights at approximately 9:15 p.m. He describes:
I saw this ufo while driving. It was moving south over the Estrella Mountains. The lights were a fiery color. What is not visible in the video is the shape of the craft and the massive size of it. After it disappeared we continued to drive in the direction it was headed, eventually driving behind the mountain but saw nothing.

Others in the Goodyear area saw the mysterious lights too. And local news station ABC15 even aired a story about the lights, commenting on how the event was reminiscent of the well-known Phoenix Lights UFO incident.
Open Minds‘ Alejandro Rojas informed ABC15 that these recent lights seen over the Estrellas “are believed to be flares dropped by the military.” So ABC15 checked with Luke Air Force Base officials “who confirm they were flying out at Goldwater Range on Tuesday night and that during training, they do drop flares.”
After seeing the ABC15 news report, the witness sent his video to Open Minds. And he asserts that what he observed “looked nothing like flares.” He also describes that the UFO “did not just vanish, it was moving and moved over the mountain at an angle.”
The original Phoenix Lights incident occurred on March 13, 1997–an incident that involved multiple mass UFO sightings. Although the mysterious events were officially blamed on flares, that explanation doesn’t fit with with witness testimony or even the timetable of events, leaving the incident an unsolved mystery.
Alien abductions are real and have been happening for decades. Abductees are victims who have done nothing wrong. No one ever asks to be abducted. It is a deceptive and insidious crime against humanity. Aliens have the psychic capacity to make sure their abductees don’t feel victimized. It’s likes violating someone then convincing them you’re the new Messiah. A neat little arrangement.
Of course, abductees are the first to tell you how wonderful it was. It’s all part of the game. Aliens need a compliant abductee, so the alien invasion will play to people’s spiritual ideals and the need to feel special. Those with inherent psychic abilities will be encouraged to feel gifted for having been chosen. Are you seeing the problem here?
There is hope. Humans can increase their mental powers and spiritual capacity to such an extent that they become more of a problem and nuisance for them. Alien abductors will avoid these people. You have this power!
Awareness is the First Crucial Step
The first step is awareness. Are you a victim of an alien abduction? These 7 signs are a good place to start. Read the list with an open heart and an open mind. Deep down, there’s a part of you that cannot be corrupted or manipulated by the alien invasion. Quiet your mind and ask it sincerely. Ask it over and over again until you get an answer. You can do this!
You have inexplicable lapses of memory that cannot be explained. During an alien abduction, abductees will have their memory wiped or tampered with. This is a sign that something might be up.
On some nights, you are paralyzed with the thought that someone is coming for you. The suggestion to wait in a certain spot might be implanted within your thinking.
You feel great inner restraint and difficulty when trying to research the subject. Victims of alien abductions will sometimes feel really nervous and uncomfortable whenever they try to learn more about alien abductions. They’ve implanted this feeling deep within your mind. Push through!
In spite of your deep intuition that something terrible is happening, you cannot help but think positive and loving thoughts about Aliens. Be wary. Humans are being abducted against their will. Are you really so sure that aliens are spiritual beings here on a mission of mercy? Who told you this? How do you know for sure? What if you’re wrong?
You cannot easily sleep alone or without the lights on. Alien abductions usually happen at night. A deeper part of our psyche begins to make that association.
You frequently have dreams, either loving or frightful, about aliens and alien abductions. This may be a part of your consciousness, the part that cannot be manipulated by outside forces, clueing you into what’s really happening.
Close friends or family confess to having fallen victim to alien abductions, either recently or in their childhoods. This is a red flag. There’s a history of entire families or close relations having been victims of abductions. This may have something to do with the genetic engineering programs they are undertaking. Ask around. Has anyone you know been abducted?
This list doesn’t prove anything for certain, but it’s a start. Only the deeper part of you, the part we call Spirit or Higher Self or Buddha Nature or Christ Consciousness or Knowledge, knows for sure.
In the beginning, Bryce Bond and I had a very casual relationship, if you could even call it that.
It was the mid-60s – around 1966 I think – and I was helping noted UFO researcher James W. Moseley to promote his regular flying saucer club meetings that he held at one of several midtown Manhattan Hotels, mainly the Woodstock and the Diplomat. These were not high class joints in those days, and Times Square was pretty unseemly in general during this period. But, hey, you could rent a lecture hall that held 200 people for like $50. Try to get it for under a thousand bucks today! And if your guest speaker had appeared on the Long John Nebel show the night before and L. J. himself promised to show up, for $125 more you could squeeze as many people as possible into a larger banquet room and toss out your 350 folding chairs till there was standing room only. Not that you were going to make any money, regardless how you cooked the door, as admission was either 50 cents or a sawbuck back in those days. It was typical to split the money with the speaker who had to make his way onto the next town by rail or bus.
Anyway, Bryce was hosting a nightly pop music show called Moondile out of WTFM, a radio station somewhere on the outskirts of the City. Bryce was not a big fan of rock and roll or blues and limited himself to spinning low-key jazz and Frank Sinatra hits. But I guess he had enough interest in the UFO subject that he would announce our “Saucer News” club meetings (“Saucer News” was the name of the magazine J. W. M. was publishing at the time and of which I eventually became Managing Editor) as a public service notice free of charge since we were obviously a nonprofit group. (But have saucers ever made anyone money?). Just recently I found out from a longtime friend of both Bryce and myself that Mr. Bond had been a “closet UFO experiencer” since an early age.
During one of our brief conversations held while Old Blue Eyes could be heard crooning away in the background – the melody going out over the air to God knows how many desperate souls who enjoyed this kind of pop music (I say this being a big fan of rock and roll, unlike my friend Bryce) – Bryce said that he was going to England on vacation to get away from work for a while. He wanted to know if I had any suggestions as to what he might do “off the beaten track” while visiting jolly ole England.
I had just published a book called “UFO PROPHECY” by a Briton named Arthur Shuttlewood. It was a remarkable – almost sensationalistic – volume about the ongoing wave of UFO sightings over the tiny hamlet of Warminster, located on Salisbury Plain a stone’s throw from the megalithic Stonehenge. The Warminster phenomena, first dubbed “The Thing,” kicked in on Christmas Eve 1964 as a loud hum like the sound made by a “million bees” and filled the evening sky, tossing a woman to the ground and pinning her there as she was on the way to church services. The sightings of lights and ships began on a regular basis shortly thereafter and attracted hordes of observers to such locations as Cradle and Starr Hills on the skirts of town.
In the book, Shuttlewood, editor of the daily “Warminster Journal,” revealed how his town had gone from a placid spot on the countryside to a locale where you could go almost any night and have a personal sighting – or encounter – with a UFO. All you had to do was go to one or two observations points – Cradle Hill or Starr Hill. Maybe bring along a small telescope or a pair of binoculars and perhaps a torch light in case you felt comfortable in trying to communicate with the craft by signaling to it as it hovers up in the heavens, almost hidden among the stars, but decisively brighter and somewhat pulsating. You will, I am told, almost immediately know the difference.
I quickly dashed off a letter of introduction and sent it air mail to Arthur Shuttlewood in advance of Bryce's departure from the States.
The next thing I heard was that the two gentlemen had gotten along rather famously and that Bond had become, in essence, Shuttlewood's sky-watching buddy. Word came back to me from several sources that Bryce had not only seen a UFO but that he had felt the psychic energies given off by standing inside a crop circle (one of the early ones at that) and that he had had several unexplainable experiences which are detailed throughout the pages of this book. And, although he does not speak of it directly in the typed manuscript he gave me, I did find out from a mutual associate that Bryce had undergone his own encounter with the crew of a landed space pod who took him for a brief sojourn in their craft and brought him back safely. Apparently this was all part of several “missing time” episodes that took place while he was staying in Warminster. As Shuttlewood tells it, he and his fellow sky-watchers insisted that their comrade had been gone for hours while to Bond it seemed like a much shorter period of time had expired.
Now such an experience might shake up almost everyone else but our intrepid newsman and radio host. Far from being shaken up by his otherworldly adventure, Bryce was elated. He says he felt high on life and had to do whatever he could to change his calling in life. He no longer felt like he had an infinity for Frank Sinatra tunes. He knew that he had to do whatever he could to make the Earth a better place in which to live, regardless of whether or not his peers in the entertainment business might make fun of him for discussing such matters as if they were actually true.
Almost the minute he arrived back at WTFM, he marched into the Program Director's office and said he was quitting his job, that he could no longer do something so, to him, superficial. He had to be free to help others and save humanity. Well, OK, perhaps I am going a bit overboard, but I do know that when I saw Bryce next he was no longer the hip DJ but had committed himself to a “higher purpose.” He began lecturing at my NY School of Occult Arts and Sciences (one of the first of many-to-come metaphysical groups in the U.S.), became an instructor for Silva Mind Control and a well-known faith healer in the area.
UFOs had changed his life as they have done for many other individuals – both positively and negatively. Sometime later, Bryce began working on a book he called “Keys to Inner Perfection” which he asked me to publish and which I did. There was nothing really significant about UFOs in the book but I felt that what Bryce had to say was important enough to print a small edition of 2,000 copies. He did discuss one near-death-experience which I found both compelling and chilling. Over the ensuing years, Bryce’s experience would be given much attention by reviewers discussing his book. In any case, I figured that Bryce had such a good media personality that he would be able to help sell many copies by appearing on radio and TV in the metropolitan area.
Unfortunately, Bryce Bond never lived to see his book published. He passed away less than a month before the cartons arrived at our warehouse from the printer. I was always sad about this fact as I knew Bryce had put his heart and soul into preparing this publication.
“Keys to Inner Perfection” sold moderately well over the next several decades. We were recently down to just one copy on the shelf, not because we had sold all two thousand copies, but because our storage area, which was a freight car parked on a back lot near the train yard, was destroyed little by little by weather and, frankly, even rodents that chewed into the cartons of boxes.
I was, of course, determined not to sell our only copy even though we had an order for it. I decided to return the customer’s money and tell them that we were going to scan the book and reissue it. I sent it off to our graphics department headed by the Adman himself, Wm. Kern.
There was no rush on this, I told BK. Something told me the book was missing something. Initially, I decided I would add a couple of pages of my own ramblings about my meetings with Mr. Bond. Then, as “luck” would have it, I was going through one of my forty file cabinet drawers and came across this black binder. I opened up the dusty volume and found a partially-edited, typewritten manuscript by none other than Bryce Bond on his experiences in the U.K.
I vaguely remembered that Bryce had given me this book around the time he had submitted the “Keys to Inner Perfection” manuscript and asked me to publish it at a later date if I could. The years passed, the pages became almost brittle and changed color from white to a brownish-yellow.

Een eerste indruk van Apple's nieuwe 'spaceship'-campus in beeld gebracht door een drone (VIDEO)
Er is een nieuwe drone video opgedoken die de vooruitgang bij de bouw van de nieuwe Apple Campus in beeld brengt. In Cupertino wordt al een tijdje hard gewerkt aan een nieuwe campus, die nog groter en spectaculairder moet worden dan de huidige. De campus krijgt een eigen auditorium om nieuwe producten te lanceren en heeft de vorm van een UFO.
In de onderstaande foto's ( via BI) zie je de vooruitgang van de afgelopen maanden mooi op een rijtje:

Hikers In Peru Noticed Something Strange Hidden Away On This Cliff Face. What The…
February 9, 2015- Ever wish you were an adventurer, or an explorer, discovering environs and relics unseen by human eyes for centuries? It’s certainly a fantasy I had when I was much younger, but it’s one that I can always feel a tinge of in my adult-life. Wanting to escape the everyday and see something new, different, or unfamiliar is a feeling we all can relate to. Sometimes just surfing the web a little bit can give us a taste of what being a real explorer is like, but from the comfort of our homes. Check out the story below about some ancient statues in Peru, and do some exploring of your own.
These sarcophagi are ancient and awesome relics and one’s that you know it would be really cool to travel to see.
There were 8 sarcophagi originally, but two were destroyed by natural causes. Luckily, because of the remote location of these six sarcophagi have stayed relatively intact.

Our close encounters: Meet the alien abductees - and the pictures they drew to prove they weren't imagining it all...
Our close encounters: Meet the alien abductees - and the pictures they drew to prove they weren't imagining it all...
It is a divisive subject - those who believe in alien visitors to our planet, and those who do not.
But there are many people on this planet who earnestly claim they have been visited by aliens, and have been abducted and taken off this planet, even to alien homeworlds.
While their accounts may vary, the one thing they share is a conviction in what they saw, what they experienced, and the impact it had on their lives.
New York photographer Steven Hirsch, 63,has interviewed and photographed many abductees.
He said: 'I don't want my audience to have any preconceptions about these people before they see my images and read their words.
'My interviews barely break the surface of what is going on in their lives ... or in their minds. I'm not an analyst, my questions are not intended to find answers but to allow people to tell us their stories.
'We've become desensitized to the TV sound-bite. With these projects we can stare at the picture. Stare into their eyes. Feel their angst. It's a very simple approach. There's no distractions.'
Here, the 'abductees' tell the stories, in their own words:
Cynthia:
CYNTHIA:'I've got to meet numerous types of beings'
When I was in my thirties I found out from my father the truth about a government experiment that I was part of in which they were using other alien DNA to create me. I also have been on the ships most of my life off and on. I've had lots of contacts. Most of my contacts began when I was a teenager although I had it when I was younger. I was being taken. I've been taken on ships quite a bit.
I've also been on various ships. Mother ships and transporter ships. I've got to meet numerous types of beings. I've met Salamander beings and I've met Greys, various different types of Greys. I've also met the Blue Arcturians which are incredible. They all have their own personalities and their own purposes. So I've met Blue Arcturians. I've met Andromedans, the Assyrian Warriors of Light. I've met the Sirius Nephrons. I've also met the Cat People that are from Sirius. I've met many. I've actually seen people that can shape shift from human looking to Reptilians.
As far as the abductions. I've had numerous of them where they've shown me around various ships. They've also explained to me about the Hybrids and about the Starseeds that are here on planet Earth, why they're here and how they're here to help humanity. My job primarily is to awaken the Starseeds to remember why they're here on planet Earth.
'I have communication with beings of all different races. I've had communication with Reptilians as well as those that look like werewolves. They look like werewolves on steroids. I've also had communication with the human looking ones, with Ashtar, with Sananda, with Archangel Michael. I've also been able to help others go to the ships. Part of my mission is to help people get to the ships that need to be on the ships.
'There's a lot of what you would consider updating when it comes to with what's happening to planet Earth and when strategies have to change then many of the Starseeds that are here on special missions are taken to the ships where they are then informed of the changes in the strategies and so forth of what is going to be happening in the future. I've never yet ever met a being that was malevolent. I've always meet the benevolent ones. I've never experienced unconditional love till I've met them face to face and had conscious contact with them. They have taught me the importance of living with unconditional love and working with the light of source. This is the power that rules the universe.'
Jeffery:
JEFFERY: 'They took my memory away'
It happen eleven years ago in St. Louis, Missouri at an exotic dancing bar in North County and I went in there to just have a few drinks and look at some strip you know girls dance around the pole and this guy comes in out of nowhere and he was uh black in color but he had a very strange voice.
And he knew things about me that no one in the bar knew. Like how many trips I took.
He knew things I was doing. He knew when my parents were gonna die and what they were gonna die of. Then he tells me he's here to abduct me. Replace forty nine chips. And Dr. Lewinsky one of those hybrids, Grey hybrids was gonna do the operation.
And they were gonna take me aboard a flying saucer. Um, I thought I escaped this guy. I did a physic reading yesterday with a lady, she told me I was abducted, I was swept up for like three hours and they did exactly what they said they were gonna do to me and then took me back to the bar and woke me up and I lost like three hours in time. That's all I remember. They took my memory away from this abduction.
It was a human hybrid. He looks like a black man but he had a strange voice that wasn't like black in origin. He sounded like a white man.
About my life? I remember my father told me he was abducted by aliens in the 1950's. And now he's dead. He died of cancer just like the aliens said he would. He died in 2001 after September 11th. The aliens said my mother was gonna die in 2011 and she did.
She said I do but I don't know where they are.
JILL:
JILL: 'Zeta Reticulians'
These beings that call themselves pure light beings and they were a collective of beings that were here to assist humanity.
And they came through with this message that had about shifting conscious for human kind at this time. I sensed the wholeness of them that there were many and they came through with information every time.
And I also felt other beings that were present. The little kind of classical beings but kind of silvery light. They would be doing things to my aura or to my energy and I could feel them.
I could see visual images of them activating something in my conscious. That's how I perceived it, they basically said that into my mind that they were activating things. So they could communicate better with me.
There's beings from everywhere out there. And it's fascinating. Some of them were also the Zeta Reticulians. The messages from the Zetas are basically that they're helping us in our evolutionary process and all of these events that are happening, that people are experiencing such as abductions are to help us evolve. Help us evolve as a species. Into a more luminous being, a lighter being.
Our actual DNA is being shifted so our physical bodies are actually becoming lighter in frequency and they're helping us to do this. And to activate abilities that we have inherently but that have been basically been shut off. Not activated.
So we have this extra DNA that we're not using. Or another level to our DNA that we're not using. And we're supposed to be as a species moving in evolutionarily speaking into a lighter dimension actually. They also say it's an awareness. A new level of awareness. So all of the being Zetas are on one level or another from different perspectives. And the Zeta beings that often are experienced as abduction, experiences are here specifically, they were asked to help with this process because they're actually experts in genetic, I'd say manipulation, but it's really not what they would call it.
They have the ability or they've developed the ability to work with genetic structures. It's beyond what we think of as genetic because there's an energetic level, that I'm not a scientist so I don't know what to really call it but there always comes that message that there's an energetic component to this.
Jocelyn:
JOCELYN: 'It was a mantis being'
We were taken to an underground base near the Sedona area. At the underground base, my friend and I were separated from the rest of the group that had been abducted. Which was my two daughters, my husband and another woman that was staying next door.
My friend and I were seated in kind of these egg shaped seats. Some kind of apparatus was put around our head. And there was this long cylinder kind of device that had a blue, looked like a blue flame that was coming out of it and they put this up around my head, around this other golden device and a alien came in.
It was a mantis being. And they said, there was this little teardrop, kind of looked sort of like a pendulum upside down. What they wanted me to do was move it with telekinesis through this hoop and literally jump through this hoop and I couldn't do it so the mantis helped me put it. Then they did this blue flashing thing and then they said now you try it and I was able to move it through the hoop. I was told at that time they were upgrading my pineal gland for intuition so i have more physic ability.
Sebastian:
SEBASTIAN: 'I saw this ET'
It was like three years ago. I saw this ET. It woke me up in the middle of the night, while I was mediating. They exist. If some could go like this and open your eyelids while you're mediating, while you're in deep man there's something out there. It looked like a little kid except it had big eyes, it looked just like a little kid except it had big eyes, small nose and a little mouth. Big eyes, small nose and a little mouth.
I'm thinking that because, Einstein was right about something. Albert EInstein was right about something. How there's different dimensions and different realities and stuff. I'm thinking they went through time if you will you know. If their out there if they know all this and they have all this technology and all this stuff, what are the odds of them coming back you know?
They didn't probe me, they didn't do nothing. They just opened up my eyes. It was kinda crazy because before that I just asked for something like that to happen just for proof and I just got it you know? It was there. It happened. I was a little bit scared at the moment. It was something crazy.
How did it leave? Just like that it disappeared. You think what you want but that's what happened to me.
Jeanie:
JEANIE: 'They're gonna knock me out with that white light again'
Anyway this particular night this was around the time of the full moon and the Hale-Bopp Comet was very prominent in the sky and I had just come home from a fire walking ceremony so that was an intense evening and I kind of awakened in the middle of the night with feeling this weird heat down around my sexual area and I was waking up going, 'What in the world' and then all of a sudden I could feel these long skinny bony fingers drawing circles on my right ovary and I felt the paralysis and I thought, 'Oh shoot they really are here, oh my God.'
I'm not sure how I saw them. If it was you know tuning in and seeing them on what level. My room looks dark and I always sleep with my light on. I've done that since I was a child.
So when I'm realizing they're with me the energy feels different. It was totally unnerving to me to recognize that they really were visiting with me and I could see there was a smaller Grey on my right hand side and a slightly taller one on my left and I remember telepathing to the Grey, 'Please stop doing that, I don't want you to touch me.' I asked him three times.
It didn't stop so I'm not sure if it was my astral arm that came out and I reached over and I grasped his long skinny bony fingers with my left hand and said, 'I asked you not to touch me, please do not touch me.'
And then I noticed the Greys on each side of my bed looked at each other and I thought, 'Ah shoot, they're gonna knock me out with that white light again.'
I have seen myself on ships. Either driving them with somebody who is a well known abductee or I was in a huge mother ship one time where I was being taken by, guided by a taller Grey that had on a bright red robe. He's more or less like my teacher.
Then I went into this conference room and there was all these different beings from wherever and then there was a seat that I knew was just for me. So then I sat next to this being that had a body that looks similar to, I wanna say like a beef jerky stick, beef stick. It had that shape and then he had just a round head and three tubular extensions.
And when he looked and little tiny skinny arms and legs and he looked at me and I heard this energy, I could see it go 'wit were wit.' And I laughed because I knew he was saying hello to me, 'How have you been? I haven't seen you in a long time.'
Sasha:
SASHA: 'They were all humanoid'
I was lying breathing deep and fast to the powerful evocative music and there I was. My consciousness was in the middle of this huge dome like structure.
The inside of the structure was white and then there were coves in it that were big enough for people to sit in meditation and they were sitting cross legged. Some of them wore white robes. Some of them had long hair. They were all humanoid.
There were some I couldn't quite tell what they were. But I got the feeling they were a type of human. Some of them were huge. Some of them were small and they were all in their coves and it was all part of this huge dome and the atmosphere in this place was absolutely beautiful. It was golden light and the background was white, like it was whitewashed and it was a place of meditating on peace and love.
Lisa:
LISA: 'I had a hole in the back of my head'
There was a knock at the door and there was a Grey being standing there.
And this being handed me this small baby.
I looked up to him and he handed me a second one that shouldn't have been there.
I woke up screaming and so angry.
Come back with bruising or woken up I guess with bruising that shouldn't have been there.
I had a hole in the back of my head that under black light glowed with a triangle around it.
I like to tell myself that they were dreams but somewhere inside myself I know it was more than that.
Nancy:
NANCY:'The car was totally immobilized'
In the summer of 1961 when I was twelve years old, I was at my girlfriends house and we were playing and her father yelled for us to come outside, he wanted us to see something. When we walked outside we immediately saw a giant silver craft. It was silently hovering above a tree. It had red, green and white lights that I thought at the time were rotating but I realize they were pulsating.
Someone called the police. Two Novi police came. Her father actually brought a telescope out and he asked me to look through the telescope, I said, 'Why? It's right there.'
I didn't even understand why I would even look through a telescope. It was so close. And then there was a car coming down the road. There was a tree here and a craft here and a car coming down the road and as it got right underneath the craft, a beam of light came out of the bottom and it went right to the roof of the car and as soon as it touched the car the car was totally immobilized.
I just remember screaming and being excited and jumping up and down. I remember tugging on one of the police officers arms and saying, 'Do something. Do something.' After that I remember being home and Mom and Dad telling me to not talk about it, forget about it, hoping that I would forget about it and it would go away. So for fifty years I never shared it with anyone, not with family or friends or anyone.
Six months ago I met Dr. Harry Wellness and I told him my story because he was a Ufologist and I knew he would believe me and not think I was crazy. He found a regression therapist for me. I had no idea I just wanted to remember the incident more clearly. And at the end of the first regression I remember seeing that my body was rumbling, was a word I never used. My body was rumbling and waving to the low hum of the craft and that was the end of the first regression.
In the second regression, I actually remember being aboard and a procedure that was performed on me. There were three Greys. They performed a laparoscopy on me. In 1961 in the medical field there were no laparoscopy.
They explained to me that they wanted to see inside. They described themselves as teachers. They promised they would get me home safely. I remember in that regression that as the craft was leaving they let me see them leaving and they wanted me to see them leaving. The reason being that they promised and they telepathically told me, 'See we told you we would get you back safely.' That was important to them to relay that message to me.
In the third regression I remember communication that I had with, I called him Mr., because that's how we refer to adults, Mr. and Mrs. back then. And I remember my conversation with him as I was leaving the craft. And he corrected me that it was called a ship and the reason it was called a ship was that it goes in the water as well as in the air.
And I watched how the doors shut. They shut like this. They wrapped around. All the instruments that they use on me when they did the laparoscopy were retractable. They all came out of the wall. It was all neat and clean. There was nothing in there. It was just silver, white floor, a silver table that I was on.
Three Grey beings. The pilot looked like a normal anybody's dad. I said Mr. why did you let them hurt me. And he said, 'Your pain was perceived.' And I got really mad at that remark. I realize that my pain. I realize now that my pain was perceived. They didn't hurt me. They didn't want to hurt me. But I was watching the needle and seeing the needle. My pain was perceived.
I remember the first night that I got home after I was taken, staring out my bedroom window forever. And wishing for them to comeback. 'Please come back, please comeback.' I'm here. Come get me.
Camille:
CAMILLE: 'They had big white heads'
I had a sighting with my boyfriend. We were walking the dog and the dog was barking at this squirrel that had run up a tree and we were looking up. We were looking at the squirrel.
This was in Silver Lake section of Los Angeles. And we saw this thing in the air that was black and it wasn't moving. It was a bright blue sky day and I remember looking at him and saying, 'It's a UFO'.
A blue light had come through my ceiling. It was this very particular turquoisey kind of blue. And it was very solid like a column with like a bottom but it didn't flare out, it was like a solid beam. And it came into my room and when it touched me I was frozen and I curled into a ball and I went through the ceiling.
And the next thing I know I'm in this white misty room on a table. I saw this row of beings to my left that were tall. They had white robes on with high collars. They had some kind of emblem here. I wanna say it was like a triangle inside a circle. They had big white heads and big black wrap around eyes. They all looked the same. I was terrified.
Vivian:
VIVIAN: 'They're so ugly'
Me and my partner decided we were going to go for a walk up on Bell Rock in Sedona. Bell Rock is known for being a vortex, an energy vortex. I didn't know what that meant. I just thought we would go up there and feel some energy changes or something. My partner doesn't feel anything so we basically we're going for a walk in a nice area and see if we can feel anything. I had no idea there was any connection with alien activity there at all. Zero. Didn't even cross my mind.
We had to walk a distance, maybe three miles to get there. I started to notice out of the corner of my eye there's a figure next to me and the figure, we call them the shirt boxes because if you can imagine a man's shirt box it's that shape except that the thing is about four feet tall and it's got little sticky legs, its got two eyes and something that's a little off center and kinda looks like a turkey gobble for a mouth.
It's made of white plasma material in some kind of square membrane and it's lit up. Anyway it appears to be about four feet tall something like Sponge Bob. So Sponge Bob was walking with me and I'm getting tired. I said, 'I don't think I'm going to make it to Bell Rock today.'
And Sponge Bob says, by the way we communicate telepathically, I've never ever heard a voice, Sponge Bob says, 'Yes you are, you're going'. All right. All right, I'm going. So I walked a little bit farther and I said, 'You know I really am getting tired.'
And Sponge Bob says, 'No you're not, you're going, you're going'. All right, I'm going, I'm going. So I go a little bit farther and I'm really tired now and I turn to Sponge Bob and I say, 'Look it, I don't know who you are but I think I'm done'. 'You're not done' and Sponge Bob starts pushing me, physically pushing me, from the behind.
Oh my God. 'All right, all right I'm going'. And then I notice there's another one of these guys. Now there's two of them and they're walking with me. Wait there's another one. I walk a few more, maybe ten or thirty feet and there's ten of them now.
The whole thing's so bizarre I don't know what to think of it anyway but I'm walking. So I'm walking and there's ten of them now, then there's more and there's more and by the time we get to Bell Rock there are literally thousands of these guys.
And I see other humans walking around and nobody sees them but me. They are laughing and singing and dancing. The happiest most loving little creatures. And I asked them, 'Why me?' and they said, 'You're one of us.' In the back of Bell Rock there's a Stargate. There was a pipe going up. I could see their little bodies were being sucked up in the vortex in the pipe. Sucked up into the heavens.
Bruce:
BRUCE: 'You're on one of the moons of Saturn'
When I was seven years old, i went to sleep one night in Indiana. I was a corn feed farm boy. In the middle of the night I woke up just basically cause my nose was itching and I went to scratch my nose and there was glass over my face and it startled me for a second and I couldn't understand what was happening so I reached up and I was kind of panicking, when someone reached out and took my arms, folded them across my chest and held them down across my chest and said: 'Relax you're perfectly fine, just stay calm' and I said, 'What's happening?'
He said,'If you're ready I'm going to let you loose and show you something.' Well he let me loose and I sat up and I was on some kind of metal stand and I was wearing a space suit and in from of me was a guy wearing a space suit.
And I couldn't see his face cause his shield was gold in color. And I said 'What am I doing here' and he said, 'Well we wanted to show you something that human beings have never seen and we wanted you to see this'.
So I said, 'Really this is cool.' You know this is a little boy having and experience of a lifetime you know, I said 'Great.' So he said, 'Follow me.'
So he goes off and he opens the door, he reaches up on the panel, activates this thing. These doors open. This ramp goes down and I follow this guy out, down this ramp. I was standing on dirt and I was wondering where I was at.
And right in the sky to my left was a huge moon like body and in the immediate background was Saturn. And I could see hundreds and hundreds of rings. And I said, 'Where am I?' and he said, 'You're on one of the moons of Saturn.' I said, 'Why did you bring me here?'
And he said, 'Because these two moons are going opposite directions. They get to a certain point and they revolve around each other and go back the opposite direction. I just wanted you to see that.' Well the thing is after he showed it to me, they took me back in, he knocked me out and when I woke up the next morning I was in my bed.
I looked off in the distance and I saw a light over the mountains. It clearly looked like a UFO to me. So I said out loud, 'If you're coming for me, you outta get your asses over here and get it over with.' And as soon as I said that, this thing leaped at supersonic speeds, it went zoom and just stopped right over my head. It was huge. It was circular, anywhere from fifty to seventy five feet across. And it was surrounded in light.
And this thing was ebbing, this light at a slow ebb. And it had all these colors in the rainbow like pink and teal green and red and orange and yellow. It was just sparkling at this low ebb. But it didn't do anything. It just stayed there. So I'm sitting there looking at this thing and about ten the higher it got the brighter it got then ten minutes came and went and nothing happened. Then suddenly this thing starts ebbing way, way up and the higher it got the brighter it got untill it got almost white hot looking and when it went bright white looking it suddenly disappeared right in from of my eyes. It didn't fly off it didn't shoot off it literally just went, 'sheeeeeesh', disappeared.

10 Of The Weirdest Alien Encounters People Really Claim To Have
10 Of The Weirdest Alien Encounters People Really Claim To Have
There’s a certain template people have for how they envision aliens. The hypothetical beings will be featureless, grey, small and slender-bodied. Additionally there is a perceived formula for how the alien encounter/abduction goes. Someone in an isolated environment sees a glowing ship and is taken on board for medical experiments, then returned with their memories partially suppressed or erased.
But many close encounters of the third and fourth kind are hugely different from that. Some are much more bizarre and elaborate, others are counterintuitively uneventful (down to earth, as it were). These stories are sometimes so bizarre that you at least wonder how someone could have come up with them.
Are we saying that any of these encounters with non-Earthlings are real? Let’s just remember Carl Sagan’s comment that extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Almost every instance here features rather ordinary evidence. Nevertheless, the stories are are not to be missed.
10. Malaysia’s Tiny Aliens
In Douglas Adams’s book The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, there is a passage where two powerful alien races send huge fleets to Earth. They cross galaxies and in their quest and fly for thousands of years on the way to their target . . . but don’t realize how small they are compared to Earthlings and all get swallowed by a small dog. A similar sort of alien encounter has been reported many times in Malaysia.
Probably the most notable story of this type occurred on August 19, 1970 to six kids playing in a heavily forested area. They later claimed they saw a UFO less than a meter across, from which five very humanoid aliens filed out. The main visible difference between them and a human being was that they were about eight centimeters (three inches) tall. Four wore blue outfits while one was in yellow with a spiked helmet, who the children interpreted as being the leader. They went to a tree and were attempting to install some sort of “aerial device” in it when one of the kids, identified only as K. Wignerswaran, attempted one of the few alleged civilian abductions of aliens. Unfortunately for him, it turned out that the aliens all possessed ray guns and began shooting at him and his schoolmates, driving them away and inflicting an insignificant wound to Wignerswaran’s thigh.
9. Cardiff’s Fleet Of Space Thieves
Earlier this year, the United Kingdom’s Ministry of Defense released a case file of hundreds of report they’ve received of UFOs and alleged extraterrestrial activity. By far the most high-profile story released was found on page 167 of the document. In 1992, a man in Cardiff, Wales reported that he and friends were out camping when they saw a group of 12-15 UFOs over their campsite. The fleet then “abducted” their car, a dog that was at the site, and their tent (you wouldn’t assume that would require 12 ships). The man was quoted as saying that the theft left him “gobsmacked.” How exactly a tent and car can be abducted as opposed to stolen was not explained. Unfortunately, it seems unlikely an investigation will ever uncover the desired answers—the reason these stories were released to the public was because the department for UFO analysis was being shut down.
8. Voronezh’s Trigger-Happy Invader
The Western Hemisphere naturally has no monopoly on stories of alien encounters. In fact, probably the most frightening one comes from Russia right around the time the Berlin Wall fell. In the Voronezh City Park on September 27, 1989, some kids were playing soccer when a red disc landed. Out came a three-eyed creature, standing 2.7 meters (nine feet) tall and holding a ray gun-like device, which it used disintegrate a boy identified by at least one source as Dmitri. After the alien took off again, the boy reappeared. While all the witnesses of the event were children, there were adults that saw the UFO itself, including police officers, as reported by the New York Times. It is also worth noting that that Voronezh was going through a period of UFO hysteria at the time.
7. Brawl With An Alien
In 1954, Gustavo Gonzalez and Jose Ponce were driving their truck along a lonely road outside Caracas, Venezuela when they rounded a corner and found a large luminescent sphere blocking their way. More annoyed that someone was disrupting traffic than the fact there was a sphere hovering over the road in front of them, Gonzalez got out to investigate.
At that point, a hatch opened on the ship, and out came three short, hairy humanoids. One of them jumped on Gonzalez, who was barely able to shake him off at first because the alien was both light and extremely strong. In the scuffle, the alien threw him 4.5 meters (15 ft) through the air. Gonzalez then drew his knife and tried to stab the alien with it, but found it’s body was like steel, and his blade glanced off. Still, the aliens were intimidated enough to get back in the ship and fly away, leaving the pair to report their odd encounter to the police. They got a surprise corroboration from a police officer who claimed he had seen the whole thing.
6. An Alien Cookout
Some people seemingly don’t get too worked up about encountering aliens. Among them is Joe Simonton. On April 18, 1961, in Eagle River, WI, a spaceship landed near his home and “Italian-looking” aliens disembarked. Of all things, the aliens evidentally set up a grill and started making pancake-like foodstuffs. Rather than abducting or threatening Simonton in any other way, they asked him through mime to fill a jug with water, which he did. When he came back, he saw the aliens had finished making some food and asked for some. He got four cakes, one of which he ate. Later he sent a few to local universities, which reported that the ingredient were all of earthly origin. If Simonton could encounter beings from beyond our world or understanding and mostly think to just fill their jug with water, it must be said that perhaps he was even stranger than the creatures he claimed to have seen. Reportedly much more bothersome to him were all the journalists that kept coming to the farm and interfering with his work.
5. Aliens Out For Fertilizer
Similar to Joe Simonton’s story in terms of amazingly casual encounters of the third kind was Newark farmer Gary Wilcox’s meeting with aliens on April 24, 1964. Seeing a cigar-shaped object he mistook for a crashed plane, he rode up to it on a tractor. It turned out to contain two beings in clothing that hid their faces. They told Wilcox that they were Martians and then began asking him questions. This lasted for over two hours until they eventually got down to business and explained that they were attempting to terraform Mars by way of studying samples of Earth soil. To that end they asked for a bag of fertilizer, as they had no cows on Mars. Wilcox obligingly went to retrieve a 75-pound bag only to find the Martians had left before he got back. So he left the bag. When he checked on the spot the next day, it was gone.
4. Pier Zanfretta And The Lizard People
We now head over to Italy, where a private security guard was driven to unusually dangerous extremes by an alleged encounter which left behind atypically strong (though still hardly conclusive) evidence. On December 6, 1978, he was out doing his rounds when he saw four lights coming toward the house he was guarding. Approaching the lights with pistol drawn, he saw that they were three meters (10 ft) tall, green-skinned, mouthpiece-wearing reptilian things with spikes extending from their heads. He claimed the aliens then seemed to hit him with some sort of heat beam. He sprinted away, radioed in, and then broke off contact, having to be found by a later security patrol. When he saw the other guards, he aimed his gun at them, but fortunately didn’t fire. When the scene was later investigated, very large unusual footprints (about 50 cm or 20 inches long) were found along with evidence of scorching among the trees, which indicated at least something out of the ordinary had happened.
But that wasn’t the end of it for Zanfretta. On December 26, the aliens returned, and this time they got him. As he later recalled under hypnotic suggestion, the aliens took him inside their craft and attached a sort of communication helmet to him. One of the aliens shot Zanfretta’s gun into a piece of metal, apparently to see what would happen. Zanfretta told the lizard men that he was afraid and wanted to be released. They obliged.
That was until they abducted him again on July 29, 1979, yet again on December 2, 1979, and a fifth time in 1980. On the fifth occasion, the aliens took him to a crystal mothership and showed him a frog-like being suspended in a tube that they claimed was an enemy of their species. Through it all, they provided very little actual motive for why they repeatedly abducted a security guard for short periods. As with others we’ve described, Zanfretta seemed to benefit very little from his claims, and in fact spent decades languishing in obscurity after an initial media flurry over his claims.
3. Lee Parish Is Abducted By . . . Structures?
On January 27, 1977, 19-year-old Lee Parish was driving home when he claimed his car was lifted into the air by a beam of light. Under hypnosis, Parish later described being taken before three strange objects that looked so unlike any known life that he could only guess that they were sentient. One was a large, black, 20-foot-tall rectangle, with a jointless robotic arm extending from it. There was also a red rectangular prism with a similar arm, and a motionless white prism about two meters (six feet) in height. Somehow, the white one gave the impression that it was the leader. The red prism approached him and extended the robot arm, with Parish getting the sense that it was afraid of him. Nevertheless, when it touched him, it gave him a sensation of coldness and pain. Parish thought that was done to run a scan on him. After that, the three objects merged together, dispelling a later impression among some UFO enthusiasts that the things were robots. The next thing Parish was aware of, he was back in his car. Analysis of his missing time indicated the reported experience lasted 38 minutes.
2. Brains On The Road
On August 17, 1971, John Hudges and Paul Rodriguez were driving home in Palos Verdes, California when they saw aliens on the road. They looked like cerebrums, with the smaller of the two slightly bigger than a softball. The larger of them had a large red eye, and began to float toward them. The pair immediately hightailed it away, and Hodges dropped Rodriguez off at his home.
But when Hodges got home, the aliens returned, and this time he was taken to their leaders. According to Hodges, these were aliens of a type more commonly described, with the brains essentially pets that they used for telepathic communication. Why they would let the brains wander free or reveal their existence to their first human contact was not explained.
1. Aliens Elaborately Stalk Ed Walters
In 1988, Gulf Breeze, Florida became the epicenter of a string of UFO sightings and photographs mostly centering around one Ed Walters. With their unusually non-aerodynamic structure, color scheme, and general shape, the UFOs Walters (and allegedly other people) photographed looked less like interstellar craft of galactic villains and more like they should be on tilt-a-whirls—which is very fitting for the odd experience he described.
Starting on November 11, 1987 and ending May 1, 1988, the Walters family claimed to have 20 encounters with aliens that were flying around in an estimated 20 ships, with him seeing at most six crew members to a ship. This was exhaustively described in his book The Gulf Breeze Sightings. Walters’s book also has the odd photo of himself and his family members. One photo has him standing in a towel on the deck allegedly yelling, “Land, or get the hell away!” at a UFO. Another has a blue beam that the aliens purportedly used as a tractor beam of sorts being dodged by his terrified wife. From first photographing a UFO to the end, he experienced such weird telepathic signals as a woman speaking Spanish to a baby, a series of images of dogs, and (some days later) a bunch of images of naked women (“if this was to try to persuade me to board the ship, it wasn’t working”). At one point, they dumped liquid onto his home, some of which landed in a pool. It turned out to be salt water.
Additionally, aliens showed themselves to him repeatedly, both while he was driving at night and outside the sliding glass back door. The road encounter was where he came up with the assumption there were six to a ship: Five disembarked the ship, and he assumed one stayed aboard while it hovered. They were 1.2 meters (four feet) tall and though their faces looked like those of stereotypical aliens with black eyes and almost no features, they were only visible through slits in helmets because the aliens were supposedly dressed in blocky, bulky armor, of a type almost never reported since.
Dustin Koski also has some choice words to say about the legacy of weird fiction writer H.P. Lovecraft.
Once relegated to the realm of myth and imagination, ball lightning has gradually gained acceptance among scientists as a real—albeit rare, fleeting, and elusive—aerial phenomenon. Although it’s not unheard of for ball lightning to be seen during perfect weather, it’s generally associated with thunderstorms, typically occurring near the ground after an incident of cloud-to-ground lightning.
Ranging in size from one half inch to many meters in diameter, ball lightning can occur in a variety of different colors, the most common being red, orange, and yellow. It’s luminous enough to be seen clearly in daylight; rarely is it dazzling. Most instances of ball lightning last only ten seconds or less; instances of more than a minute are rare. Often the object is accompanied by a hissing sound and distinct odor resembling ozone, burning sulfur, or nitric oxide. In most cases, the object will be seen to move about and then vanish, decaying either explosively or silently. “After the ball has decayed, it is sometimes reported that a mist or residue remains,” Martin Uman explains. “Occasionally a ball lightning has been observed to break up into two or more smaller balls.”1
Countless theories have been advanced to explain the existence of ball lightning. One such theory views the phenomenon as magnetic field induced hallucinations caused by being in close proximity to a lightning strike. However, without overlooking the possibility that there may be many different types of ball lightning, each with its own mechanism of production, the phenomenon can best be explained as a form of high-density plasma. While some of the attempts by physicists to create ball lightning in the laboratory have yielded intriguing results, so far none of them have come close to producing anything as spectacular and awe-inspiring as that which nature produces herself.
Proving that ball lightning is physically real is the fact that numerous cases exist where the object has left behind traces of physical damage, such as by burning or melting objects in the vicinity, or by injuring or killing people and animals. There are cases where ball lightning has left perfectly circular holes in panes of glass, in some cases by melting a hole straight through the glass; in other cases by removing a circular piece of glass as though by means of a glass cutter. It’s possible, too, for ball lightning to pass straight through a pane of glass—or wall, ceiling, or floor—without the least amount of hindrance. It can even enter a room by squeezing through the keyhole of the door, adjusting its shape in order to fit. Just as mysterious, ball lightning has a tendency to enter homes via the chimney.
Putting aside for the moment the more spectacular characteristics of the phenomenon, let’s take a look at a typical incident of ball lightning, as reported by E. Matts of England on November 10, 1940:
“I was working at the far end of my garden; the weather was normal, no rain, [and] no signs of thunder. Suddenly I seemed to be in the centre of intense blackness and looking down [I] observed at my feet a ball about 2 ft. across. It was of a pale blue-green colour and seemed made of a mass of writhing strings of light, about 1/4 in. in diameter. It remained there for about three seconds and then rose, away from me, just missing a poplar tree about 3 ft. away. It cleared the house by about 20 ft. and landed at the rear of the Weavers Arms on the Bell Green road, a distance of about 1/4 mile. There was a loud explosion and much damage was done to the public house.”2
Sometimes ball lightning materializes inside homes, airplanes, and other types of enclosures, suggesting as a possible mechanism of production some form of electrostatic induction. The following case took place in 1960 onboard a KC-97 U.S. Air Force tanker en route to Nevada:
“As I was concentrating on the instruments on the panel (no outside visual references were visible) a ball of yellow-white color approximately 18” in diameter emerged through the windshield center panels and passed at a rate about that of a fast run between my left seat and the co-pilot’s right seat, down the cabin passageway past the Navigator and Engineer. I had been struck by lightning two times through the years in previous flights and recall waiting for the explosion of the ball of light! I was unable to turn around and watch the progress of the ball as it proceeded to the rear of the aircraft, as I was expecting the explosion with a full load of JP-4 fuel aboard and concentrated on flying the aircraft. After approximately 3 seconds of amazingly quiet reaction by the 4 crew members in the flight compartment, the Boom operator sitting in the rear of the aircraft called on the interphone in an excited voice describing a ball of fire that came rolling through the aft cargo compartment abeam the wings, then danced out over the right wing and rolling off into the night and clouds! No noise accompanied the arrival or departure of the phenomenon.”3
By far the strangest ball lightning reports are those where the object displays apparent intelligence. According to Paul Snigier (1943–2008) in his book Ball Lightning: Paradox of Physics (2004), “Although many balls act dumb, others exhibit puzzling behavior that seems almost supernatural and quasi-intelligent. Some balls chase people across fields and up or down stairs. A few circle people, spiraling up from the knee level to the head and then dart out the nearest window or up a chimney, then explode.”4 Snigier, who wrote Ball Lightning under the pseudonym Paul Sagan, worked as an electrical engineer for Raytheon and Texas Instruments, later becoming editor of the computer magazines Mini Microsystems and Digital Design.
Featured in Paul Devereux’s book Earth Lights Revelation is a clear and credible report of seemingly intelligent ball lightning. The report was sent to Devereux by a University of Illinois industrial design professor named William Becker. Becker’s ball lightning encounter took place in the summer of 1958, while on a canoeing trip with five high school friends in a region north of Grand Marias, Minnesota. At one point during the trip, the weather turned bad, forcing Becker and his friends to seek shelter in an abandoned cabin. Becker and one of his friends made themselves comfortable in the back room of the cabin; the others occupied the remaining rooms.
Before long the rain outside had turned into a downpour and the sky had darkened considerably with the onset of evening. Becker opened the window a crack to emit some of the heat that had accumulated in the room throughout the day. A moment later, he and his friend saw “what looked like a flashlight moving around outside the opened window.”5 At first Becker assumed he was witnessing a prank perpetrated by a member of the group. He picks up the story:
“To our complete amazement, the ‘flashlight’ illumination began to squeeze through the open, one-inch crack above the window sill. As we watched, a ‘bubble’ of light emerged from the space in the open window and slowly floated into the room. The lightball I estimated to be just larger than a basketball. It hung in the air a moment and seemed to be making a lot of rapid short movements which added up to overall ‘smooth’ motions.
“The ball had a bright outer perimeter of yellow-white light with an inner core of darker orange light. As it moved from the window on my right to just in front of me, I saw what looked like ‘worms’ or short ‘strings’ of light writhing at its center. It made no sound, but slowly descended towards the floor where an old black and white, Indian-style rug still lay inside the door. Inexplicably, the lightball moved down just over the rug, and as it continued across the room from my right to my left, it ‘traced’ or followed the dark patterns in the rug on its course. It then slowly proceeded towards the end of the room where it angled away and shrunk in size as if finding an escape hole in the corner kick boards. In a moment, it was gone.”6
Before Becker and his friend had time to discuss the astonishing incident, they heard from behind the wall of the room “a sharp piercing report, like a loud firecracker.”7 The following day they found, at the location where the explosion had occurred, some damage in the form of a broken drain pipe connection. It is Becker’s hypothesis that “lightning must have interacted with some of the many copper deposits in the area to produce the ball.”8
“If not a rational skeptic, your author could suspect that fireballs might be a transient life form with some form of “alien” intelligence,” Snigier adds. “Perhaps DNA-based life is not the only form of life on earth. If so, then are fireballs non-carbon-based life forms?”9
The notion of ball lightning as non-carbon based life forms is not as outrageous as it sounds. In fact, a number of erudite UFO researchers view both ball lightning and their “cousins” earth lights as “plasma-based” life forms indigenous to Earth.
I wish to conclude our discussion on ball lightning with the following quote by William R. Corliss (1926–2011), a respected physicist and author of books on scientific anomalies: “Perhaps the intense electrical forces occurring during some thunderstorms somehow distort our space-time continuum and provide a fleeting glimpse into some unknown cosmos. Ball lightning is strange enough to stimulate such wild thoughts.”10

Most solar flares come from sunspots. The next big explosion, however, could come from a different source: On February 5, 2015, a huge filament of magnetism is snaking over the sun’s southeastern limb.
According to spaceweather, the structure, a tendril of plasma of more than 400,000 km long held suspended above the surface of the sun by magnetic forces.
If the filament were peeled off the sun and stretched out, it would easily reach from Earth to the Moon.
If the filament becomes unstable and erupts, it could hurl parts of itself into space. Pieces of the filament falling back to the solar surface would explode upon impact, creating one or more Hyder flares.
Astronomers with backyard solar telescopes are encouraged to monitor the structure as it turns toward Earth. A photogenic explosion may be in the offing.
One of the most fascinating aspects of the UFO phenomenon – and particularly so that which focuses on the “alien abduction” controversy – is one which makes a connection between encounters of the unearthly kind and owls. There are numerous reports on file where people who have undergone UFO experiences report sightings of anomalous owls. And by “anomalous” I mean owls that (A) manifest directly before or after the encounter and in the same location; and (B) seem to be much larger than the average, known kind of owl.
This has led to an intriguing theory: that the sightings of owls are actually nothing of the sort. They may be nothing less than skilfully-created “screen memories” which are implanted into the mind of the abductee or the experiencer, with the specific intent of masking the true nature of what occurred.
Whitley Strieber is the author of what is probably the most widely recognized book on the alien abduction phenomenon: the bestselling Communion, which was published in 1987, and the cover of which displays a near-hypnotic image of an alien entity. It may not be a coincidence that immediately after the first abduction experience that Strieber recalled, on December 26, 1985, his mind was filled owl-based imagery.
Strieber’s sister had her own experience with an anomalous owl in the early 1960s. Strieber said that as his sister was driving between the Texas towns of Comfort and Kerrville, and after the witching hour had struck, “…she was terrified to see a huge light sail down and cross the road ahead of her. A few minutes later an owl flew in front of the car. I have to wonder if that is not a screen memory, but my sister has no sense of it.”
This all brings me to something else – a creature that has become a staple part of a completely different subject: cryptozoology, which is the study and search for unknown animals, such as Bigfoot and the Loch Ness Monster. Or, based on what I’m about to say now, maybe they are not so unconnected, after all. In November 2013, I penned an article for the New Page Books’ blog titled The Owlman of the Woods. In part, the article said:
“In 1976 the dense trees surrounding Mawnan Old Church, Cornwall, England became a veritable magnet for a diabolical beast that was christened the Owlman. The majority of those that crossed paths with the creature asserted that it was human-like in both size and design, and possessed a pair of large wings, fiery red eyes, claws, and exuded an atmosphere of menace. No wonder people make parallels with Mothman.
“It all began during the weekend of Easter 1976, when two young girls, June and Vicky Melling, had an encounter of a truly nightmarish kind in Mawnan Woods. The girls were on holiday with their parents when they saw a gigantic, feathery ‘bird man’ hovering over the 13th Century church.” (End of quote.)
Since that fateful day, a handful of additional reports of the so-called Owlman have surfaced – collectively suggesting the presence in the area of a somewhat-Mothman-like beast of cryptozoological or supernatural proportions, or possibly a combination of both. But now, however, there is a new angle to the mystery.
Just a couple of days ago, I received an email from a woman now living in the English town of Lowestoft, but who previously lived very close to Mawnan, and specifically in the small Cornwall village of Gweek, the distance between which, by car, is approximately six and a half miles. It transpires that in 1998 she had a profound UFO encounter while taking the road from Mawnan to Gweek.
It was after 11.00 p.m. and the woman was driving home after visiting a friend in Mawnan. She had barely left the little village when she saw what she could only describe as a UFO, one that appeared at the side of the road – around the size of a large beach-ball and glowing bright orange. The next thing she knew, she was parked at the side of the road, with what she was able to determine was no less than two hours of time unaccounted for.
But there was something else: as she came out of her groggy state, she caught sight of a huge owl-like creature, but which had somewhat humanoid characteristics attached to it, too. It was hovering in the air, at a height of around fifteen feet, but was not employing the use of its wings to keep it aloft. Given the fact that this was practically on the doorstep of where the Owlman was seen back in 1976 (and since, too), the idea that the two issues are unconnected is highly unlikely.
The witness admitted she knew of the Owlman legend. Living so close to Mawnan, it would be more astonishing had she not heard of it. There was little more she could tell me, beyond the facts surrounding the sighting of the curious ball of light, the period of missing time, and the appearance of a “humanoid owl,” as I term it.
This particular encounter – which has not been publicized before – set me thinking. What if the Owlman of Cornwall is not a beast of cryptozoological proportions, after all? What if, instead, it is some strange manifestation of the UFO phenomenon, one that is designed to trick the witnesses into thinking they have encountered a large owl, when, in reality, the event was of an otherworldly nature?
On February 4, 1968, from approximately 7:20 to 7:25 P.M., about two hundred residents of Redlands, California, either saw or heard what was apparently the same huge, low-flying, disk-shaped object as it passed overhead. A minister conducting services in a church in Redlands was recording his sermon at the time and obtained a recording of the sound, which many people present described as a high-pitched, modulated whining sound much like that of the “FLYING SAUCER” seen on TV program. The object apparently came down just west of Columbia Street and north of Colton Avenue, then proceeded slowly in a northwestern direction for about a mile or less, at an altitude of about 300 feet. Coming to a stop, it hovered briefly, jerked forward, hovered again, then shot straight up with a burst of speed. (Total time of the sighting must have been less than five minutes). The object’s size and altitude were estimated by Dr. Sanderson. The object seemed (if at 300 feet altitude) to be around 50 feet in diameter.
The artist’s conception was based on a series of interviews with witnesses by Professor Brownfield. His composite painting was verified by witnesses. The lights on the base appeared to expel jets of bright orange flame and were seven in number. The light on the top (eight to ten in a row) were alternating in color (red and green), giving the impression that the object was rotating. The object was not detected in RADAR, by the nearby Norton air Force Base, but a USAF spokesman admitted that their radar was not the type that would have spotted it anyway. The closest radar that might have detected the object was a March Air Force Base near Riverside, but a range of mountains stands between Redlands and the location of the base. Professor Philip Seff, who headed the investigative team, reached the following conclusions: The object sighted can be attributed to no known type of aircraft. Since the atmosphere was clear and the object was low, witnesses obtained a clear view; also, no known aircraft was over Redlands at that time. As far as is known, the object cannot be attributed to any known natural phenomenon.
Mysterieus (buitenaards) voorwerp gevonden in Siberië ( Video )
Mysterieus (buitenaards) voorwerp gevonden in Siberië ( Video )
Onlangs kwam er tijdens graafwerkzaamheden in het Russische Siberië een mysterieus voorwerp tevoorschijn.
Het lag op een diepte van ongeveer 40 meter onder de grond en had de vorm van een klassieke vliegende schotel.
Het vreemde schotelachtige voorwerp werd opgegraven tijdens werkzaamheden van een mijnbouwonderneming.
Al snel werden er archeologen bij gehaald met de vraag om het voorwerp nader te onderzoeken.
De mensen die het voorwerp hebben opgegraven hebben geen idee wat het kan zijn, maar sommigen zijn er van overtuigd dat dit door mensen is gemaakt. Anderen denken dat dit object ooit uit de hemel is gevallen.
Het ongewone object is bijna perfect cirkelvormig met een diameter van ongeveer 1,2 meter en een gewicht van bijna 200 kilogram.
Wat in ieder geval duidelijk is, is dat we hier niet te maken hebben met een natuurlijk gevormd object.
Omdat het voorwerp is gevonden op een diepte van 40 meter is het misschien wel ouder dan de mammoetbeenderen die aangetroffen zijn op een diepte van 25 meter in datzelfde gebied.
Wetenschappers onthouden zich van ieder commentaar omdat ze op dit moment geen flauw idee hebben wat het zou kunnen zijn.
Scientists recently discovered a tiny metal orb they believe is extraterrestrial in origin.

Dayton,Ohio – 02/07/15 Driving down Southbound I-75 past the Franklin Exit.I spotted a blinking object at about 5000 feet at a South East direction hovering. I watched it for about 45 seconds before it just disappeared. It later came back with two smaller lights that were flashing a red, green, and white. I am ex military and realized that the objects were not ours due to the fact that they just vanished and then came back again before finally leaving for good.Time was about 9-910 pm EST.

Vero Beach, FL – January 31, 2015, 8:50pm A constant bright orange dot in the southwest that would occasionally drift sideways to the west. At first, I thought it was a night launch – they’re kinda common around here – but launches typically are seen to the north. This was to the southwest. The color and brightness was reminiscent of a launch, but it was more constant, no flicker to it.. It seemed to stay at the same altitude, but moved sideways a couple of times, slowly, to the west.. I watched it for about a minute or two, and it faded out. When I got home, I posted on Facebook ‘Did anyone else see that’? but got no responses. The thought crossed my mind that it could be a Chinese lantern drifting in the wind, but it seemed too high and too bright. I wouldn’t have reported this, had I not just now seen the January 25th report of similar sightings in the same town.

Taylors HIll, Victoria, Australia – 28th December 2014, 3.21pm Multiple UFO Encounters in Infrared over Taylors Hill On the 28th of December 2014 at 3.21pm, I recorded several encounters with objects that seemed to be unidentified in nature. The day’s skywatch session includes a large ORB that circled overhead for over ten minutes, a cluster of flashing/reflective UFOs in close proximity and a single UFO floating across the sky. Due to my circumstances at the time i was not able to place the camera away from the influence of glare. The footage has been trimmed to remove segments washed out by the sun and an unknown interference which has yet to be determined. The field of view ranges from the South to South-West in the sky near my house in Taylors Hill, Australia. Unfortunately, I was not able to submit this report sooner.

UFO Close Encounter - My Father's Close Encounter With an Unknown
UFO Close Encounter - My Father's Close Encounter With an Unknown
I have been busy with other parts of my life and have had little time and energy to share. There are things to come..but first I feel sharing my father's close encounter is important to me. I have not yet shared this encounter on my site. Do close encounters run in the family? I will share my thoughts after you learn of my Dad's near sighting. The first time in his 70 years of life that he saw anything of the sort. The encounter takes place in Saskatoon Saskatchewan early December of 2005...and these are my father's words.. I was in Saskatoon traveling north along the South Saskatchewan River and going home when I turned west onto ravine drive and drove about half way up the hill. That is when I first noticed something to the southwest of me, an object that was all lit up . It was not moving when I first saw it. So my first thought was that it was a brightly decorated spruce tree for Xmas. I quickly realized that it was approximately 50 feet off the ground and hovering in the sky without support. It was no more than a city block away from me. Things quickly settled in as the realization of what I was looking at was not normal..It still shocked me, after I had another good look at it.
In the sky I saw what appeared to be a craft that looked almost tear shaped but sideways and flat edges. I slowed the vehicle down to a crawl and watched the UFO hovering for about 10 seconds. I rolled down my window to get a more clear view and to check if I could hear any sounds from it. I could see the outline of the craft by its multicolor lights that surrounded the object. I could not see what color the craft itself was nor could I see anything jutting out, as it was too dark out. Still thinking rational and trying to make sense of what it was that I was looking at, I then thought maybe a helicopter. It was a fleeting thought though as I knew it could not be that.. helicopters make a lot of noise and there was none. Even the trees near the object were not moving from any wind either. Also in that fleeting moment I remembered that the local police and emergency service do not have a helicopter for Saskatoon.
What I did see, looked like the body of the craft had only straight lines to it, no curves just straight lines. The glare of the lights prevented me from seeing the actual structure itself.
The lights were very bright and the colors that were on it were bright light red, dark red, blue, green and gold. The lights were very rich in color and it all was becoming overwhelming.
My heart was now racing as I was moving the car very slowly. I was now side by side with the object and I could tell that it was creeping very, very slowly ahead with me. The UFO then banked slightly turning slight to the south. After about 10 seconds the object banked sharply to the direct south, giving me full view of the bottom of the craft. Still there was no sound from the craft. It slowly descended down the other side of a hill that it was now above. It then headed down toward the river.
It was less that a block away at all times, as I slowed down to a crawl. It did not vanish quickly, but it moved at a very slow pace. When it slowly disappeared from the top of the hill and headed down toward the river, that is when I lost sight of the object.
The entire sighting took about 15 to 20 seconds with no sounds ever coming from the unknown craft .
I do feel that when I slowed down more..That it (they) took notice to me observing them, and that caused the unknown to start its sharp bank and then slowly leave.
When the craft left, it was going about 5 mph as if it was looking for something as it was leaving.
The size from what I could tell..It was approx.. 35 ft long ---15 ft. wide -----10 ft high.
I did make a couple quick drawings of the craft.
The black dots on the pictures represent the placement of the multicolor lights on the craft as I saw it.
It seemed that the front of the craft was the larger part, the cockpit area so to speak. The narrow part was the rear of the UFO..That is what I am assuming from how it flew as I watched the craft in motion.
After watching this unknown leave as it did, it seemingly continued in search of whatever they were looking for. I feel it was not ours and had to ask myself, How is this real? How can this be? It was all very weird to me. ********************************************************* My Father has listened to my own encounters in the past..but I could read him much like a book. I understood he never really accepted what I said to be real. Being his son..he just ``accepted`` what I told him but never beleived me..until his own eyes were opened...at close range. Now an interesting part to "if it runs in families". As mentioned in past posts..I am adopted and not of blood relationship..yet my adopted father whom I have known all my life and spent a life with..had his own close encounter. That solidifies one thing to me for certain..Not only can blood families be tied to it...but people who are close to an abductee may also experience close encounters and sightings. I do also have close friends who have seen with their own eyes but not before my encounters started again..only after.. When eyes are opened....they can never be shut again.
I hope you all have the oppertunity to observe something that will change the way you look at the world...It will open your eyes..to so much more. Continue your quest with part one to my close encounters and abductions with this link MIBs and Greys abductions,

White Disk Over Melbourne, Australia On Feb 5, 2015, UFO Sighting News.
White Disk Over Melbourne, Australia On Feb 5, 2015, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: February 5, 2015
Location of sighting: Melbourne, Australia
This white disk was seen over Australia this week and a classic disk shape that attempts to mimic a cloud. At one point it looks like a triangle craft, but I don't believe its changing shape. Rather, it is turning and showing us different angles of itself. The camera has trouble focusing on this, so the blur makes it look like its changing shape. That is not so. The shape never changes. A great catch by Brad Morris of Youtube. SCW

UK engineers will send probe to look for alien 'twinkle' in the sky of Earth-like worlds
UK engineers will send probe to look for alien 'twinkle' in the sky of Earth-like worlds
February 8, 2015 - A small satellite, named 'Twinkle', is set to give radical new insights into the formation and evolution of alien planets.
The spacecraft will watch for a dip in light as a planet passes in front of its star to work out its composition, and whether it could host life.
Within four years, the UK-based mission could provide much needed data on some of the 1,800 exoplanets that have been discovered.
'Twinkle is a very ambitious mission,' said lead scientist, Professor Giovanna Tinetti of University College London who are working on the probe with Surrey Satellite Technology.
'Nearly two thousand exoplanets – planets orbiting stars other than our sun – have been discovered to date, but we know very little about these alien worlds.
'We can measure their mass, density and distance from their star.
'From that, we can deduce that that some are freezing cold, some are so hot that they have molten surfaces, some are vast balls of gas, like Jupiter, or small and rocky, like Earth.
'But beyond that, we just don't know.
'Twinkle will be the first mission dedicated to analysing exoplanets atmospheres, and will give us a completely new picture of what these worlds are really like.'
When an exoplanet passes in front of the star that it orbits, a tiny amount of starlight is filtered through the molecules and clouds in the planet's atmosphere.
Twinkle will measure this light and pick out the characteristic spectral 'fingerprints' that show if gases like water vapour or methane are present on the planet - and whether the planet could host life.
Knowledge of the chemical composition of exoplanet atmospheres is essential for understanding whether a planet was born in the orbit in which it is currently observed or whether it has migrated from a different part of its planetary system.
The make-up, evolution, chemistry and physical processes driving an exoplanet's atmosphere are strongly affected by the distance from its parent star.
Atmospheric composition is a clue to an exoplanet's history as well as whether it might be habitable – or even host life.
Twinkle will analyse at least 100 exoplanets in the Milky Way.
Its infrared spectrograph will enable observations of a wide range of planet types including super-Earths, which are rocky planets 1-10 times the mass of Earth.
It will also look at gas giants orbiting very close to their suns, otherwise known as Hot Jupiters.
Some of the target planets are orbiting stars similar to our sun and some are orbiting cooler red-dwarfs.
For the largest planets orbiting bright stars, Twinkle will even be able to produce maps of clouds and temperature.
'The light filtered through the planet's atmosphere is only about one ten thousandth of the overall light from the star,' said Professor Tinetti.
'That's a big challenge and one that requires a very stable platform outside the screening effects of Earth's atmosphere.'
Twinkle will be launched into a polar low-Earth orbit. The spacecraft will be built to operate for a minimum of three years, with the possibility of an extended lifetime of five years or more.

UFO Buzzes Russian ‘UFO’ Jet In Paris Air Show Video — What Is Blinding Object Flying Past Su-35?
UFO Buzzes Russian ‘UFO’ Jet In Paris Air Show Video — What Is Blinding Object Flying Past Su-35?
The Russian Su-35 fighter jet is known as the “UFO” in honor of its incredible maneuverability in the skies while flying at incredible speeds topping 1,500 miles per hour. But a recent video of the UFO plane in action may have yielded an actual UFO sighting — an object flying so fast past the Russian fighter that the jet’s pilot seems to simply miss it.
“Looking at this Paris Airshow footage its easy to miss the UFO in all the awesome shots of these jets, but at 2:47 into the video you will see the UFO move from left to right of the screen,” Waring points out. “It is long and small and thin. This object comes extremely close to the jet, threatening the safety of the craft. The pilot seems oblivious of the UFO, because of its incredible speed.”
Watch the video above to see what Waring is talking about. At the 2:47 mark that he mentions, some sort of object unmistakably buzzes the Russian jet.
Could it be nothing but a bird? If so, this “bird” appears to fly as fast as the deadly Russian fighter jet itself.
Or is the object’s speed also an illusion, created by the depth of field in the camera. If the UFO is actually much closer to the camera than the aircraft, it would have a relatively short distance to traverse, creating the illusion of super-speed.
The Su-35 itself is considered Russia’s most dangerous fighter jet, capable of matching or exceeding any jet in the United States or NATO fleet. The plane’s devastating capabilities have also made it highly desirable for other countries. For example, North Korea has recently approached Russia with a proposal to purchase several of the planes late last year.
Armed with Su-35 jets, the North would immediately become a serious threat to invade and conquer South Korea within a week.
While there has not yet been any confirmation as to whether North Korea was able to purchase the jets from Russia or not, China has already reached a deal with the Russians to buy 24 of the so-called UFO jets.

The Pascagoula Abduction Incident
The Pascagoula Abduction Incident
Date: October 11, 1973
Location: Pascagoula, Mississippi, United States
The Pascagoula Incident involved two men, Parker and Hickson, both of Gautier, Mississippi, who were fishing in the Pascagoula River when they heard a buzzing noise behind them. Both turned and were terrified to see a ten-foot-wide, eight-foot-high, glowing egg-shaped object with blue lights at its front hovering just above the ground about forty feet from the river bank. As the men, frozen with fright, watched, a door appeared in the object, and three strange Beings floated just above the river towards them.

There are a few cases of reported abductions that really impress me. One of these is the Hickson/Parker case. Here is a collection of articles and documents from the NICAP website.

The Pascagoula Incident involved two men, nineteen-year-old Calvin Parker and forty-two-year old Charles Hickson, both of Gautier, Mississippi, who were fishing in the Pascagoula River when they heard a buzzing noise behind them. Both turned and were terrified to see a ten-foot-wide, eight-foot-high, glowing egg-shaped object with blue lights at its front hovering just above the ground about forty feet from the river bank. As the men, frozen with fright, watched, a door appeared in the object, and three strange Beings floated just above the river towards them.
The Beings had legs but did not use them. They were about five feet tall, had bullet-shaped heads without necks, slits for mouths, and where their noses or ears would be, they had thin, conical objects sticking out, like carrots from a snowman's head. They had no eyes, grey, wrinkled skin, round feet, and claw like hands.
Two of the beings seized Hickson; when the third grabbed Parker, the teenager fainted with fright. Hickson claimed that when the Beings placed their hands under his arms, his body became numb, and that then they floated him into a brightly lit room in the UFO's interior, where he was subjected to a medical examination with an eyelike device which, like Hickson himself, was floating in mid-air.
At the end of the examination, the Beings simply left Hickson floating, paralyzed but for his eyes, and went to examine Parker, who, Hickson believed was in another room. Twenty minutes after Hickson had first observed the UFO, he was floated back outside and released. He found Parker weeping and praying on the ground near him. Moments later, the object rose straight up and shot out of site.
Expecting only ridicule if they were to tell anyone what had happened, Hickson and Parker initially decided to keep quiet; but then, because the government might want, or ought, to know about it, they telephoned Kessler Air Force Base in Biloxi. A sergeant there told them to contact the sheriff. But uncertain about the reception their bizarre story might get from the local law, they drove to the local newspaper office to speak to a reporter. When they found the office closed, Hickson and Parker felt they had no alternative but to talk to the sheriff.
The sheriff, after listening to their story, put Hickson and Parker in a room wired for sound in the belief that if the two men were left alone they would reveal their hoax; of course they did not. The local press reported their tale; the wire services picked it up; and within several days the Pascagoula Encounter was major news all over the country. The Aerial Phenomena Research Organization (APRO), founded in 1952, sent University of California engineering professor James Harder to Mississippi to investigate; J. Allen Hynek, representing the Air Force, also arrived. Together they interviews the witnesses. Harder hypnotized Hickson but had to terminate the session when Hickson became too frightened to continue.
Hickson and Parker both subsequently passed lie detector tests. Hynek and Harder believed the two men's story. And Hynek was later quoted as saying "There was definitely something here that was not terrestrial".

UFO mania: Edward Snowden:UFOs Come From Ultra-Terrestrial Civilization in Earth Mantle
UFO mania: Edward Snowden:UFOs Come From Ultra-Terrestrial Civilization in Earth Mantle
Edward Snowden, reported on the facts known to it concerning UFOs. According to the documents, which Snowden copied to the CIA, the U.S. government has long known that UFOs exist and are managed species more advanced than humanity. These species are not alien, and our earth, only more advanced. They live here for billions of years, and far ahead of us in development.
The CIA stores data tracking systems and deep-sea sonar, but they have the status of state secrets, and even the scientists do not have access to this data about these objects. This kind of intelligent Homo sapiens and lived in the Earth's mantle. This is the only place where conditions were more or less stable for billions of years. Extremophiles can live at different temperatures, they have been able to flourish and develop intelligence at an accelerated pace. Homo sapaens and they have evolved at the same rate, but their living conditions in the Earth's mantle defended their civilization from the many disasters that have occurred on the surface of the earth. . .
The general consensus is that we're just ants from their point of view and there is a small chance that they will not continue to pay attention to us. But the military and are considering the possibility of aggression and the current plan of action in emergencies includes a plan - detonate a nuclear weapon in the deep caves to "seal" the enemy in the hope of destroying their communications that will prevent further attacks from the bowels of the earth.

Mysterious light seen over Pembrokeshire
Mysterious light seen over Pembrokeshire
What was the strange object seen over Pembrokeshire? Have your say in our Poll.
There are some people that see a report on a light in the sky and immediately dismiss it as another crack pot claiming to see an alien space craft without actually reading the report and taking the time to digest the facts. This report is based on one man trying to find an explanation for a strange light in the sky that exhibited unusual ariel agility.We hope you take the time to read his account, examine his photographs and then have your say on our poll on what you believe to be the cause. If you have definitive evidence and proof to solidify the origin of the light then please could you email us at paranormalchronicles@aol.com.
The Pembrokeshire man who wishes to remain anonymous at this time, as he is a prolific figure in the county, has asked for any information on the origin of a strange object seen between the Roch and Brawdy area on the night of the 30th November 2014. He has asked for anyone else who saw it to please contact us. This is what he witnessed.
It was on Sunday 30th of November 2014 and it was about 10.40 pm. I saw it between Roch and Brawdy. The object was low in the sky, it did not move for around fifteen minutes, and then it just jumped into the sky. It then sped off quickly out towards the sea. I thought it may have been the Sea king (helicopter) at first when it started moving but it made no noise and took off faster than I would have perceived a chopper to take off at but I may be wrong. I drive that road from Solva to Simpsons cross pretty often and I’ve never seen anything like it before. I went back the next night at the same time to see if it was back but it wasn’t . I hope other people saw it and have an explanation on what it was. I took some pictures and I’m sorry they are not better quality as I took them on my phone.
What is the origin of the light seen over Pembrokeshire on November 30th?
We are grateful to the gentleman for the time to contact us and allow us to publish his account and photographs.
So what could be behind the light?
The area is home to the 14th Signal Regiment (“14 Signals”), the British Army’s electronic warfare unit. They are situated at Cawdor Barracks a military installation located 6.3 miles (10.1 km) east of St David’s in Pembrokeshire, South West Wales. Could it be that the light is a mis-identified aircraft, a new military vehicle or something more?
Could the lights be related to the loud bangs in the sky heard across the U.K on the 29th November? People living hundreds of miles apart took to social media to say they had heard unusual loud noises between 10pm and 10.30pm with theories abound from fireworks, a military exercise, the sonic boom from aircraft to a new weather phenomena.
With Pembrokeshire experiencing many UFO reports during the summer of 2014 ( see archives) could Pembrokeshire be heading back to a plethora of sightings or will this case have a plausible explanation. The Paranormal Chronicles now receives sightings from all over the Globe on a Daily Basis. Where ever we can we always try and get the permission of the witness to publish their account. Anonymity is guaranteed and if you have a sighting to share with the hundreds that visit this page every day then please contact us at: paranormalchronicles@aol.com.

Buitenaards leven is dichterbij dan we denken ( Video )
Buitenaards leven is dichterbij dan we denken ( Video )
De ontwikkelingen in de wereld gaan in hoog tempo twee totaal verschillende richtingen op.
Enerzijds zie je de terugval tot een prehistorische beschaving (ISIS) en anderzijds een enorme bewustzijnsverhoging en contact met buitenaardsen.
Wij hebben enkele dagen geleden de prachtige opnames kunnen zien van Dr. Steven Greer aan het strand in Florida.
Waarbij als gevolg van wederzijdse communicatie met buitenaardse wezens er twee prachtige schepen verschijnen aan de horizon.
Waarschijnlijk moeten verschillen in UFO-waarnemingen bij mensen voor een groot deel gezocht worden in de ontwikkeling van het bewustzijn.
Sinds de gebeurtenissen vorig jaar in Friesland, maar met name ook in Mexico, waar een UFO met grote snelheid een wolk inschiet om aan de andere kant ervan niet meer tevoorschijn te komen, toont voor ons aan dat we hier te maken hebben met een soort poorten naar andere dimensies.
Dit betekent dat er op het ene moment duidelijk een UFO zichtbaar kan zijn die dan plotsklaps ook weer is "verdwenen". Soms zijn ze wat langer in onze dichtere dimensie en dan ook voor meer mensen zichtbaar. Wij mensen hebben maar een beperkt frequentiegebied waarin wij kunnen waarnemen. En ondanks dat dat zich uitbreid momenteel zijn er nog veel zaken om ons heen die wel degelijk bestaan en gebeuren maar die wij simpelweg niet kunnen waarnemen.
We leven in een paradoxale tijd waar een deel van de mensen terugvalt in de beschaving van het stenen tijdperk, denk aan ISIS, en een ander deel enorme vooruitgang boekt in de ontwikkeling van hun bewustzijn en verhoging van de eigen vibratie.
Dan ontstaan prachtige ervaringen zoals van deze dame die ons schreef (dank!) enkele dagen geleden:
Een bizarre ervaring rond uur of 2 vannacht(ik slaap met gordijn open. Kwam er een groot blauw licht mijn kamer binnen. Het licht voelde warm aan als een zonnestraal en verwarmde mijn hals.
Het ging heel snel. Ik dook weg omdat ik schrok en zag nog snel een blauw laser licht wegschieten in de lucht. Daarna niets, behalve daarna wat kort onweerslicht achter de wolken.
Ik twijfelde aan mezelf. Er was geen helikopter want er was geen geluid. Dat blauwe licht voelt nog steeds warm als herinnering. Dacht even, shit ik ben ontdekt. En was ook beetje bang dat dat licht ook kan verschroeien als het verkeerd gebruikt wordt. Het was zo'n bizarre ervaring. Kan er niets over vinden.
Of zoals deze lezer schreef (dank!):
Het is wel wat langer geleden maar als ik alle ufo meldingen lees dan is die wat ik ervaren heb iets anders.
Het is ongeveer 5 jaar geleden dat ik met mijn vriend in Duitsland op bezoek ging bij vrienden toen we op weg waren naar huis zag ik boven een grasveld 3 oranje bollen niet hoog in de lucht maar vlak boven het gras.
1 was iets groter dan de andere 2 het was net of de 2 kleinere aan het dansen of spelen waren de grote bleef stil. Toen we vlak bij waren verdwenen de 2 kleine net iets later verdween de grotere ook alsof de grotere dacht waar zijn die kinderen nu weer het was net alsof iemand op kleinere kinderen aan het oppassen was, ook omdat die kleinere zo speels waren en de grotere bol heel rustig er naast zweefde.
Helaas heb ik tevergeefs een camera meegenomen bij ons volgende bezoek in Duitsland, want ik heb het nooit meer gezien.
Of zoals de maker van de volgende video, die afgelopen zondag in Schotland wandelde en ineens een merkwaardig licht in de lucht waarnam.
De man slaagde erin om dit object ruim een kwartier lang te filmen, waardoor alle theorieën zoals vliegtuigen, Chinese lampions en dergelijke uitgesloten kunnen worden.
Ook hier iemand die zich afvraagt wat hij in 's hemelsnaam heeft waargenomen. Het was een groot object dat een fel wit licht uitstraalde, met daarnaast ook wat rood, en het licht leek soms te pulseren.
UFO Cases May Be More Active In Australian Skies Than Many Have Thought
UFO Cases May Be More Active In Australian Skies Than Many Have Thought
Two Melbourne scientists have lodged freedom of information requests, and they were thrilled to know details of 13 UFO cases in the last seven years. Based on the document they received as a response to their applications, it appears that UFOs are more active in Australian airspace than many people believed.
Fascinated with the incident on March 19, 2014 near Perth as reported by Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB), Paul Dean and Keith Basterfield filed FOI requests with Air Services Australia. They asked for details on recent cases of UFOs in the Aussie skies.
In a report of the Perth incident on March 19, aircraft crew spotted a bright strobe light directly in front of the plane at around 3,800 feet above mean sea level.
The light went towards the direction of the aircraft and the crew initially thought of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The pilot described the UFO as cylindrical and grey. If not for the pilot’s evasive action, a collision could have happened between the mysterious aerial object and the aircraft, according to the report.
Another interesting incident from the response of Dean and Basterfield requests involved a missile-like object coming down from the sky. Flight XKI – DH8C reported an unusual object of about the size of 1 metre within 50 feet of the aircraft, forcing them to level out shortly as the aerial thing passed left-hand side. The pilot reported observation at 6800 feet.
In the most recent incident on January 2015, another pilot reported spotting something floating, which then vanished without a trace.
In September 2012, flight TGW581 reported seeing a red cylindrical object that passed the aircraft in the opposite direction when ascending through FL200 around 20nm miles south of Sydney.
On April 25, 2010 an unusual pyramid-shaped object was spotted drifting upside down near final rwy 35. The strange object reportedly drifted west going towards rwy 35, then climbed and drifted to the Northeast. Aircraft QFA814 and VOZ259 were diverted to avoid an accident with the unidentified aerial object.
UFO enthusiasts discovered a small spacecraft orbiting around an asteroid as it goes through the Earth. NASA says a tiny moon, but conspiracy theorists think the other way around.
An asteroid tremendous in size travelled safely past Earth and conspiracy fans claim it had a hitchhiker, an alien spacecraft.
The little object that seems to have a disc shape was spotted using an enormous radar array of NASA’s Deep Space Network in Goldstone, California.
According to the independent agency of the US government, asteroid 2004 BL86 showed in the radar images along with its moon. NASA explains that such kind of moon is quite common.
The space agency states that approximately 16 percent of asteroids measuring at least 655 feet in the near-Earth population are binary, which have a smaller asteroid moon orbiting it, or sometimes triple systems, with two satellites orbiting.
However, as soon as the footage became live on YouTube, users on the video sharing site offer an opinion saying it was a spacecraft.
NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory released a video showing still frames captured by Deep Space Network. Many commenters believe that the asteroid has a UFO flying in orbit around it. They describe the craft as diamond shaped and flat.
NASA reiterates that the flat object, which doesn’t flip over end is indeed a moon. Some observers suggest that NASA is wrong as any moon this thin would be tumbling end over end.
At least one commenter says that the object keeps itself steady and flies like a ship in space.
UFO Investigations Manual (Amazon link)author Nigel Watson says that Comet 67P is a big extraterrestrial spaceship and NASA has been receiving radio signals from it for the last 20 years. Watson believes that this was the reason Rosetta spacecraft was sent to Comet 67P to make contact with an alien crew. So, a UFO that has been spotted orbiting Asteroid 2004 BL86 should come as no surprise, according to Watson.
I was sent this photo from a friend of mine that does a great deal of contractual work at Guantanamo prison.
This photo was taken last month (January, 2015) around the middle of the month. I do not have an exact date for you but it was when the sun was setting.
He sent it to me and removed it from his phone before they went through the clearance area.
Apparently they see these things all the time. The object was moving very fast, no sound and surrounded by a helix form around the outside. Mufon case 63146.
(N.Morgan) Since 2011 the world has been plagued by unexplained noises or booms, seemingly coming from the earth, along with Meteor Bolide Explosions. The media has neglected to inform the public about these incident or report on these events. In this video below, Enigma Seeker explores the realm of possible causes for these booms and meteor bolide explosions.
Earthquake Booms, ‘Seneca Guns’, and Other Sounds – Earthquake “booms” have been reported for a long time, and in the US they tend to occur more in the Northeastern US and along the East Coast. There have been many reports of “booms” that cannot be explained by man-made sources. No one knows for sure, but scientists speculate that these “booms” are probably small shallow earthquakes that are too small to be recorded, but large enough to be felt by people nearby. In New Madrid, Missouri, there are accounts of “artillery-like” sounds that were said to have occurred before or during the New Madrid earthquakes of 1811-1812.
[Mystery booms coming from deep in the plate boundary were reported in Indonesia for many months before the December 2004 quake and tsunami.] Meteors exploding in the atmosphere are a possible cause of other unexplained booms, which are sometimes described as skyquakes. There does not appear to be any agreement on what causes the booms of the ‘Seneca guns’. They have been occurring in several places around the eastern U.S. and in India for at least a century or two.

Argentinean UFO researcher Luis Burgos – whose work has familiar to readers of Inexplicata for many years now – is currently pursuing confirmation for his “decimal hypothesis” of UFO flaps in Argentina and is being rewarded with a considerable number of sightings.
He writes: “The UFO flap is ongoing. Ufologists, journalists and enthusiasts are reporting sightings both by night and day. We have tallied 26 events up to now. Report #24: A nocturnal anomaly over San Javier, Entre Rios Province, on Saturday Jan. 10; Report #25: A strange silver cylinder over Merlo, Buenos Aires, at 16:00 hours on Sunday; Report #26:Today, Monday the 12th at 00:50 hours, the transit of an object consisting of four linked shperes was seen over Monte Grande, Buenos Aires.
We are continuing our reports and researching [the sightings] full tilt.”

UFOs, ALCHEMY, SECRET SOCIETIES AND THE NEW WORLD ORDERby Brad and Sherry Hansen Steiger.
A "respectable burgher of North Holland" appeared "modest and simple" to the alchemist Helvetius one day in 1666. It was the stranger’s incredible knowledge that startled and inspired the alchemists of Helvetius's day, and though these learned and determined men never did acquire the philosopher's stone that would transmute lead into gold, they did fashion the seeds of the science of chemistry that has accomplished so many transmutations of the human environment and the human condition in the last three hundred years.

CONTACTING ALIENS AND ANGELS WITH CIPHERS AND SYMBOLSby Sean Casteel.
Tim Beckley, the CEO of Inner Light/Global Communications, has always had a healthy interest in helping his customers make their personal spiritual journey to some kind of positive, joyful outcome. While Beckley resists some of the more “preachy” literary paths to salvation, he does inject into the marketplace a goodly amount of information intended to firm up your faith that there are patient, heavenly forces reaching out to those who are open to them More..
PARANORMAL CHRISTMAS 1914by Doc Vega.
Recently the Queen of England in a public appearance alluded to a strange incident that indicated a paranormal occurrence during the first World War in 1914. This bizarre anecdote in history clearly illustrates that not only is fact stranger than fiction, but that the spirit of Christmas is alive and well even in the midst of man's self created hell on earth.

RECORD EVIDENCE LIKE A PRO, ANYTIME, ANYWHERE!by Matt Brady.
You never know when the strange will strike. You may spot an abnormal light in the sky while driving in your car or see an odd-looking creature outside your kitchen window at night. Often witnesses have encounters with the anomalous when they least expect it and that makes recording the event difficult. There are some simple things you can do to collect great evidence when your path crosses the supernatural or anomalous, and all you need is a smart-phone. More...

THE PARIS SHOOTINGS JUST ANOTHER US FALSE FLAG PRODUCTIONby Tony Elliott.
The latest so-called terrorist attacks in Paris, France are nothing more than replays of US government inspired staged terrorist events that have been played out both in the US and around the world for decades. In the latest case of the Charlie Hebdo attacks in Paris, we are told it was carried out by 3 gunmen, Cherif and Said Kouachi, brothers, and Hamyd Mourad. Of course, officials say all 3 were linked with terrorist organizations and the US stated that they have been on a terror suspect list for quite some time. More...

DISC STRANGE FIGURES AT CORONEL PRINGLES, ARGENTINAby Scott Corrales.
The news corresponds to the end of a year that was rich in reports on strange manifestations of “flying saucers” and their landings on European soil, in particular. It heralded a rise in sightings worldwide. On 5 December 1954, Buenos Aires’s “La Razón” newspaper reported – with glaring errors – that “Mr. Enrique Aguirre Zabala, employed at a shop in this city, and who is on vacation on a property that a brother of his owns on the outskirts of Coronel Pringles (Province of Buenos Aires), left the home yesterday at 6 to do some groceries, and saw a luminous disk in space that changed shape as it approached, becoming a “cigar-shaped” structure.

THE GREAT WORLD AND THE MYSTERIOUS EYEby Deanna Jaxine Stinson.
When I was a young child, in Penryn, CA I can't remember the exact age that I was, I believed in the world... I believed that there was no evil when I was just blind to it. I had black hair as a young girl. I remember that I was wearing shorts because it was in the summertime. I was spinning around in front of the door to my daycare talking to my spirit guide. I stopped dead in my tracks because I felt something staring down at me very hard. It took me a minute to look up but when I did I saw something incredible. At the top of my viewpoint is a pine tree that often dropped many pine cones. The lawn it was in was strange. More...
ALIEN OR ET THEORY OF KNOWLEDGE?by Theresa J Morris.
Who are we? Methods, validity, and scope is what we are sharing in the world of awakening awareness as in consciousness. Being awake and aware of all that surrounds us and being plugged into the universal consciousness is not only a right but a responsibility. Wakefulness is a daily recurring brain state and state of consciousness in which an individual is conscious and engages in coherent cognitive and behavioral responses to the external world such as communication, ambulation, eating, and sex. Being awake is the opposite of the state of being asleep in which most external inputs to the brain are excluded from neural processing. More....

Epistemology is the investigation of what distinguishes justified belief from opinion. Epistemology episteme-knowledge, understanding; logos-study of is the branch of philosophy concerned with the nature and scope of knowledge and is also referred to as “theory of knowledge”.
It questions what knowledge is and how it can be acquired, and the extent to which knowledge pertinent to any given subject or entity can be acquired. Authority is most religions other than in monism of one God vs. polytheism of many gods. Question final authority as whose?
Much of the debate in this field has focused on the philosophical analysis of the nature of knowledge and how it relates to connected notions such as truth, belief, and justification.
The term “epistemology” was introduced by the Scottish philosopher James Frederick Ferrier. In Christian, Islamic, or Jewish mysticism, mystery religions and Gnosticism gnosis generally signifies a spiritual knowledge or “religion of knowledge”, in the sense of mystical enlightenment or “insight”. Christian Science, some forms of spiritualism, and in what was called the “New Theology,”.
“Gnosis” and “Gnosticism” are almost always used interchangeably. The suggestion that term “gnosis” ought to be used to describe a state of consciousness, while “Gnosticism”.
Definitions in fields such as social sciences and spiritual science is being written. Historical context of beliefs toward action now unfolds. Monism is the philosophical view that a variety of existing things can be explained in terms of a single reality or substance. Stuff monism is only one kind of stuff as matter or mind.
Thing-monism exists speaking as a single thing the universe so is monism a metaphysical dualism and metaphysical pluralism? Are we there yet?
William Blake on Emery summarizes twelve points on which Gnostics tended to agree in describing characteristics of the Gnostic mythos.
Gnostic teachers and groups in era of classical Gnosticism adheres to some or all who are called a Gnostic:
The Gnostics posited an original spiritual unity that came to be split into a plurality.
As a result of the pre-cosmic division the universe was created. This was done by a leader possessing inferior spiritual powers and who often resembled the Old Testament Jehovah.
A female emanation of God was involved in the cosmic creation albeit in a much more positive role than the leader.
In the cosmos, space and time have a malevolent character and may be personified as demonic beings separating man from God.
For man, the universe is a vast prison. He is enslaved both by the physical laws of nature and by such moral laws as the Mosaic code.
Mankind may be personified as Adam, who lies in the deep sleep of ignorance, his powers of spiritual self-awareness stupefied by materiality.
Within each natural man is an “inner man,” a fallen spark of the divine substance. Since this exists in each man, we have the possibility of awakening from our stupefaction.
What effects the awakening is not obedience, faith, or good works, but knowledge.
Before the awakening, men undergo troubled dreams.
Man does not attain the knowledge that awakens him from these dreams by cognition but through revelatory experience, and this knowledge is not information but a modification of the sensate being.
The awakening i.e., the salvation of any individual is a cosmic event.
Since the effort is to restore the wholeness and unity of the Godhead, active rebellion against the moral law of the Old Testament is enjoined upon every man.
Emery's twelve points are in every consistent with the proposal set out by the colloquium at Messina. Second-century Gnosticism is taken as the principal model for all of these definitions, a practice that appears to be sensible.
Feminism and the Gaia hypothesis may be a part of Gnosticism? So who are we alien or ET?
Consider for a moment that this account is an 1861 UFO sighting.
It was March 1861; President Abraham Lincoln had been inaugurated earlier in the month. Barely two months after the Confederacy had seceded from the Union.
The New York City of that era was a cramped urban setting before the age of tall buildings. Around midnight in a Five Points slum house on Baxter Street, Mrs. T. Richard Kinder was looking eastward out of an upper floor window towards the Church of Transfiguration. In the clear moonless sky she saw a cross like object with a flaming luminosity moving across the sky. She woke her husband and he too saw the radiant cross.
This 1861 UFO story comes to us from an obscure entry into a Baptismal record from St. Peters Church in Jersey City, NJ. Perhaps the woman thought this was a sign from God and shared it with a priest. Confessions of sighting strange objects in the sky are still being heard by priests to this day. This short account was scribbled into a cramped space at the bottom of an 1858 Baptismal book of St. Peter’s church, probably because paper was very precious in those days.
It should be noted that 1861 was 41 years before the Wright Brothers flew.
A 2013 UFO researcher dug through some newspaper archives probing for additional accounts. What he found was eye opening. There weren’t any accounts of the sighting, but there was a significant story about a Canal street fire, six blocks from Mrs. Kinder’s house. The newspaper states that a warehouse, a book bindery, and a laboratory went up in a huge fire, effectively leveling an entire block. Maybe the only reason the cross shaped craft was seen at all was because the light of the huge fire illuminated its reflective hull.

More Wikileaks Documents Surface Confirming The Existence Of Extraterrestrial Life & UFOs
More Wikileaks Documents Surface Confirming The Existence Of Extraterrestrial Life & UFOs
Julian Assange has grabbed the attention of the entire planet, as both mainstream and alternative media networks have covered Wikileaks in depth. For those who don’t know, Wikileaks is an international, online, non-profit organization that publishes secret (classified) documents, information, news leaks and other classified material from anonymous sources. They are no different from Bradley Manning and Edward Snowden. As I’ve mentioned before, they’ve been a tremendous threat to the controlling elite for a number of years and have gained the attention of major mainstream media outlets worldwide, many of whom have bashed Assange, pointing to the idea that the release of classified documents is a threat to national security. Wrong, it’s simply a threat to secrecy, information and truth. America alone classifies over five hundred million pages of documents per year. Think about a historian trying to study history, or technological development, science and more, how can they properly do this if most of this information is constantly kept secret from the general population?
That’s why organizations like Wikileaks are so important, as they shed light on truth that most of the human race knows nothing about, and one of them is the reality of UFOs and extraterrestrials.
Wikileaks is a major attention grabber, so it’s a great way to bring more attention to the UFO/extraterrestrial phenomenon that’s been gaining heavy interest over the last few years.
As far as UFO documents go, the Wikileaks ones are not really significant compared to what’s already available in the public domain. They do however show that these topics are still mentioned in highly classified documents. Again, we already have a number of (more significant and telling) documents that have been released into the public domain, as well as statements from high ranking military and political figures. To see some of these documents and whistle-blowers, you can refer to the last article I wrote on this subject by clicking HERE. For more articles on this subject from Collective Evolution, you can click HERE.
Wikileaks UFO/Extraterrestrial Documents
Prominent Lithuanian politician says that there are a “group of UFOs, who are making influence from the Cosmos.” That “there exists a decreasing group of persons, who are trying to rationally analyze the situation and objectively evaluate what is happening.” (source)
This cable comes from the year 2006 from the American Embassy in Vilnius, Lithuania. The statement was made by Albinas Januska, who at the time was appointed adviser to the Lithuanian Prime Minister.
Chief Cabinet Secretary of Japan Nobutaka Machimura Says UFOs definitely exist.
This is a cable from Japan that shows how the Chief Cabinet Secretary was unhappy with the governments official view rejecting the existence of UFOs. The document goes on to describe how he stated in a press conference that “I am sure that unidentified flying objects exist, otherwise it is impossible to explain the Nazca Lines (In Peru), isn’t it?” (source)
He also stated that ” the government has offered only a boilerplate response in its formal statement” regarding UFOs.
Tajik Mayor says there is life on other planets, and that peace and unity on Earth is necessary.
On January 13 Ambassador called on Dushanbe Mayor and Chairman of the upper house of Parliament Mahmadsaid Ubaidulloev at his parliamentary office. The Mayor began the meeting with a lengthy discourse on Afghanistan, thanking the United States for its contributions and sacrifices there, and saying that U.S. activities there were very important “as we enter the third millennium and the 21st century.” Ubaidulloev thought the main task there was to build a sense of national identity among ethnically disparate groups, and said the United States was an example for this. He noted that “war is very dangerous”, and said “we know there is life on other planets, but we must make peace here first.
In a platitude-ridden meeting, Dushanbe Mayor Mahmadsaid Ubaidulloev said upcoming elections would be free and fair, that contributions to the Roghun Dam were voluntary, and that the losses suffered by the United States in Afghanistan were felt by Tajiks as their own. Ubaidulloev asked for help in getting Tajik students admitted to Harvard University, but effectively declined to help find a new location for an American Corner in Dushanbe. He asserted the existence of life on other planets, caveating this by noting that we should focus on solving our problems on Earth. End Summary. (source)
Julian Assange has also said that that a UFO cult called the Raelians were of concern to the U.S. ambassador in Canada. It’s not surprising that the U.S. ambassador in Canada was concerned with this group. Government agencies have been concerned, harassing, monitoring and questioning extraterrestrial abductees and contacts for a number of years. They have been studying this subject for a very long time.
Like I said, Wikileaks seems to garnish a lot of attention, that’s why I chose to cover the topic, even though the documents are not as significant as ones that have already been released from dozens of governments, three letter agencies and more. Not to mention shocking statements from high ranking military and political personnel. I linked an article in the first few paragraphs of this one that provides more examples of these, and below I am going to provide a brief excerpt from it to illustrate what I am talking about.
VERY BRIEF example of other information that’s already out there
Within the past few years, dozens of governments admitted to allocating resources and having programs to study the UFO phenomenon. For instance, in Canada the RCMP, Transport Canada and the Department of National Defence recently admitted to tracking UFOs and investigating them. (source) They’ve been doing it for years, accumulating thousands upon thousands of UFO related documents -many of which have since been officially released.
HERE is the latest batch of UFO files released from the United Kingdom.
Documents released by the National Security Agency (NSA) reveal what is recorded when a UFO is being tracked on radar. HERE is one example. HERE is a four page U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency and NSA report describing a particular encounter in great detail.
“As the F-4 approached a range of 25 nautical miles it lost all instrumentation and communications. When the F-4 turned away from the object and apparently was no longer a threat to it, the aircraft regained all instrumentation and communications. Another brightly lighted object came out of the original object. The second object headed straight toward the F4. ”
You can read more about the radar tracking of UFOs HERE.
HERE is a Wikileak cable that describes how some politicians already know we are not alone in the universe. You can read more about that HERE.
Again the list goes on and on and thousands upon thousands of UFO related documents are now available in the public domain. For a summary of more documents that have been declassified and made available, a video done by UFO expert Richard Dolan does a great job at doing just that in 10 minutes.
Forgive me for using much of the same information in multiple UFO articles. We always have new readers coming to our site and this is always new information for some.
“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.” (source) – Former Canadian Defense Minister Paul Hellyer
“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 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.” (source) – Paul Hellyer
“Behind the scenes, high ranking Air Force officers are soberly concerned about UFOs. But through official secrecy and ridicule, many citizens are led to believe the unknown flying objects are nonsense” Former head of CIA, Roscoe Hillenkoetter, 1960 (source)
“There is a serious possibility that we are being visited and have been visited for many years by people from outer space, by other civilizations. Who they are, where they are from, and what they want should be the subject of rigorous scientific investigation and not be the subject of ‘rubishing’ by tabloid newspapers.” (source) – Lord Admiral Hill-Norton, Former Chief of Defence Staff, 5 Star Admiral of the Royal Navy, Chairman of the NATO Military Committee
“This thing has gotten so highly-classified…it is just impossible to get anything on it. I have no idea who controls the flow of need-to-know because, frankly, I was told in such an emphatic way that it was none of my business that I’ve never tried to make it to be my business since. I have been interested in this subject for a long time and I do know that whatever the Air Force has on the subject is going to remain highly classified” – Senator Barry Goldwater, Chairman of the Senate intelligence committee (source)
“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
Former Sen. Mike Gravel (D-Alaska), and 2008 presidential candidate said that there is “an extraterrestrial influence that is investigating our planet. Something is monitoring the planet and they are monitoring it very cautiously.” You can learn more about the citizens hearing here.
I cannot begin to express how much information and evidence is out there to support the extraterrestrial hypothesis.

Filer’s Files #6 -2015 Gerald Ford Asked for UFO Investigation - PART I
Filer’s Files #6 -2015 Gerald Ford Asked for UFO Investigation - PART I
Disc over Denver, Colorado was taken on January 30th, 2015, at 8:57 PM.
In special reports, this week’s files cover: Can the Earth be Selfish? The Gaian Challenge to Darwinism, Mars Dome, Holland’s Personal Spiritual Guide, ISIS forced out of Kobani, and Rich versus Poor.
Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over: Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, New Jersey, New Mexico, Tennessee, Texas and Washington.
Sightings of UFOs were also reported in: Argentina, Aruba, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, France, Italy, Mexico, New Zealand, Slovenia, 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.

Special Reports
Gerald Ford Asked for a Congressional Investigation of UFOs
House Minority Leader Gerald Ford 0n March 25, 1966, proposed to Congress that they investigate the rash of reported sightings of unidentified flying objects in Michigan and other parts of the country.
Ford said, “I believe a congressional inquiry would be worthwhile because the American people are becoming alarmed by the UFO stories. “
It didn’t hurt his political chances and helped make his name a household word and later President.
Secret Space Age
Olive Phillips has written a very interesting book that provides the plausibility for a series of conspiracies that makes fascinating reading. In 1977 in the quiet English countryside a film was aired. It was so shocking that for more than 30 years it’s been discussed and analyzed. But what if Alternative Three was in fact real? Was it the blueprint for surviving the end of the world and a coming ice age? How does it connect to the Secret Space Program with bases on the Moon, Nazi UFO’s, SDI and even Chemtrails? There are few books that delve into the Earth’s ice ages cycle and tie them to government preparations such as underground facilities. Phillips realizes global warming will likely end with an ice age cycle that will greatly disrupt food distribution and supplies, thereby ending the modern human existence. Phillips feels we are far ahead of what we are told and our personnel have gone to the Moon and Mars.
He explains Chemtrails are a program to help stop global warming. He examined thousands of patents and Patent 5003186 called Stratospheric Weisbach or the seeding for the reduction global warming came out of Hughes Aircraft in 1990. It references patents from 1965 and 1988 for dropping metallic particles such as aluminum from the upper atmosphere to diminish the reflectivity of Earth and decrease Global warming. Apparently additives are placed in the jet fuel that is somewhat effective in providing a sunscreen for planet Earth. Less light energy from the sun is reaching a darkened Earth and helping to reduce temperatures of at least one degree for thirty years, although last year was one of the warmest in recent history. If we were to go years without the Chemtrails sunscreen ambient temperature would likely rise ten degrees.
For the first time ever shocking details about the Secret Space Program and Alternative Three are exposed. The connections between some of the greatest Conspiracies of all time and a secret government program to move to Mars to survive the coming global apocalypse. Each conspiracy is covered with many unknown facts that make for interesting and enjoyable reading. http://www.amazon.com/The-Secret-Space-Age-Civilizations/dp/1500643335
Can the Earth be Selfish?
The Gaian Challenge to Darwinism
“Modern science lacks a unifying, interdisciplinary theory of life. In other words, current theories are unable to explain why life is the way it is and not any other way. Dr. David Grinspoon writes about Charley Lineweaver’s review of “Scientists Debate Gaia,” a collection of essays gathered from an American Geophysical Union conference and by the published by MIT press. Charles H. Lineweaver is a Senior Fellow at Australia National University’s Planetary Science Institute.
He explained that James Lovelock (shown) proposed the Gaia hypothesis, in which Earth is an organism or system capable of self-regulation. He wondered: Can the existence of life be recognized from the chemical composition of a planet’s atmosphere? What would the Earth be like now, if life had never evolved on it? Would there be oxygen in the air? Would the surface temperature be hot like Venus or cold like Mars? In the mid-60’s, NASA consulted James Lovelock to assist in developing instruments for the Viking spacecraft to detect life on Mars. He concluded that it wasn’t necessary to send a spacecraft to Mars. All you needed was to determine the composition of the Martian atmosphere –- if life was there, the atmosphere should be in chemical disequilibrium as it is on Earth. Recent observations, have detected methane on Mars indicating life.
Determining what life is and how to recognize it is the Holy Grail of astrobiology. To make progress, we need to explore the Martian subsurface and analyze the atmospheres of the nearest terrestrial planets. Lovelock’s Gaian chemical equilibrium test for the presence of life is fundamental to these efforts. Both NASA and ESA are putting their astrobiological money into interferometric infrared spectroscopy to look for the traces of chemical disequilibrium in planetary atmospheres as the primary biomarker.
Lovelock thought that terrestrial life didn’t just passively produce chemical disequilibrium. There seemed to be some element of control or regulation. In 1978, he published a book called “Gaia” that described how the entire biosphere behaves like a living creature suggesting our Earth is alive.
Gaian science and astrobiology have very similar programs. Astrobiologists look at the stars and ask “What has life done to the planets out there and how can we recognize it?” Gaian scientists have been looking at the Earth for decades asking “What has terrestrial life done to our planet and how can we recognize it?” Astrobiology and Gaian science often remain separate fields of inquiry. Astrobiology attracts mainly astronomers and biologists, while Gaian science attracts atmospheric chemists, geologists and concerned ecologists.
The thin Martian atmosphere is mainly composed of carbon dioxide. Planetary scientists have studied the atmosphere of Mars for any signs of gases such as methane that could be generated by life. In this collection, Gaian scientists believe that over the past four and a half billion years, the Sun’s luminosity has increased by about 30 percent, but the temperature of the Earth’s surface doesn’t seem to have followed in step. Lovelock hypothesized that the biosphere regulates the Earth’s surface temperature. There are two obvious ways to do this: Regulate the albedo (light reflected by the planet) and/or regulate the abundances of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
Lovelock invented the parable of Daisyworld to demonstrate that the biosphere could regulate the albedo. A nice Gaian extension of this idea is J. Scott Turner’s analysis of the thermo-regulation of termite colonies. So if a termite ecosystem can evolve to do it, why can’t a big one like the Earth? Thus, Gaia does what good scientific ideas are supposed to do. It extends and extrapolates a fundamental theory, from individuals to groups to ecosystems, up to the entire biosphere
.
The central debate of this book is: How can Gaia (Earth) be selfish? How can it do anything “for” itself? Will it protect itself from human destruction of the environment by causing earthquakes, earth lights, an ice age, or a great flood?
Tyler Volk’s book “Gaia’s Body” “Gaia is Life in a Wasteworld of By-products.” He proposed that the atmosphere is one giant waste dump. Life produces wastes, and these wastes build up and affect the environment. They become intolerable for some forms of life, but then along come new forms of life who take advantage of these waste products. Volk’s point is that poop just happens. Thus the effects of the biosphere’s wastes are certainly “by” but not necessarily “for” the biosphere..
Volk suggests using cycling ratios to measure “by and for the biosphere” and to determine how beneficial for life something may be. A cycling ratio is the amount of an element cycling through the Earth and biosphere, divided by the amount that would be cycling through the Earth in the absence of life. Volk estimates the cycling ratio of carbon to be about 200 times more carbon flowing through the veins of Gaia than would be cycling through an Earth without life from plate tectonics and volcanism.
A collection of observations by the Earth Observing System flagship Terra were stitched together into a seamless true-color mosaic of every square kilometer (.386 square mile) of our planet.
Dorion Sagan and Jessica Hope Whiteside’s “Gradient Reduction Theory: Thermodynamics and the Purpose of Life” discussed the second law of thermodynamics as the purpose of life. Agnostics looking for purpose in their lives would do well to digest this chapter with Lovelock’s suggestion that agnostics worship Gaia to fill their religious vacuum. There is grandeur and universality in this thermodynamic view of life that can be applied to life anywhere in the universe.
I’d like to see Gaian scientists recognize that Gaia is part of a larger whole – that the Earth is not a closed system and that Gaia has a mother. We begin to wonder whether our Galaxy is a life form called Galactea.
“It is a must read for any life form that is even pretending to look for extraterrestrial life. /
– See more at: http://www.astrobio.net/ Note: It logical Mother Earth or Gaia feels totally threatened by environmental abuse from Earth’s humans and that those humans who are not loving to Mother Earth may be removed.
Mars Dome
A dome like object was found in a Mars photo this week and the dome does have a metallic or glass like appearance. The object stands out from its environment, both because of its shine and its shape. It also could be a covering for a tunnel that leads below the ground to a base. Due to the threat of frequent bombardment by meteorites and low atmosphere Martians have likely built underground facilities. The huge tube system is likely supplemented by occasional domes that can provide light and entrance to the surface.
Due to the low gravity on Mars the humanoids may be quite tall.
NASA has said many times that making a base in one of the holes on Mars would be easier if they could cover it and then create an oxygen rich environment inside. If NASA has thought about it, then it’s probably because they saw aliens doing it.
Silerton – On January 27, 2015. I was working doing my rural paper route at 5 AM, when I caught sight of a helicopter and sped up to see three military helicopters. We have a National Guard armory in town so I figured that’s all it was. At 6:15 AM, I noticed two stars brighter than Venus traveling close together. Both objects were now in my windshield so I came to a complete stop as they crossed paths. Completely confused on what I was seeing I flashed my lights twice fast and a pause for about half a second then flashed a second time. Both objects stopped on a dime causing me panic. The object on the right blinked, then the left one blinked, and then together they blinked. I felt I needed to hide and parked where the trees blocked my view. I started to text my wife and watched the battery go from 92% to 0 and shut off. The radio sound stopped working and could not pick up a single station. The radio static began to pulsate in the same sequence as the blinking lights. The object was now hovering just above me and I sped off southbound trying to go home.
The objects were stacked on top of each other and were flashing a beam down like a flashlight. The beam didn’t come all the way down to the ground as I turned east onto Montezuma Road with the objects behind me. I was scared and decided to take a back road to a more populated area. I noticed a school bus and felt safer. I sped down this road for two miles and turned east on Sanford Road. I could see the object again through the trees and the radio still had no stations, then suddenly the radio popped back on. I could no longer see the craft and my phone booted up. Battery was 92% but my clock was in Eastern Time zone. After about a minute it changed back to Central time.

Holland’s Personal Spiritual Guide
Nancy Talbott BLT Research Team Inc. writes, “In 2013 Robbert’s “personal spiritual guide” since childhood re-appeared. Her name is “Doya” and it happens that Robbert took photos of her with my camera back in 2008, so I was able to show her image”.
She gave Robbert a message that a new period had arrived “in which many special events will occur,” and within days 3 new crop circles appeared in the same night in the fields near Robbert. He then got another message that visitors to these circles should take apples into them….and that strange marks would appear on some of them.
Many people did take apples with them into the circles and did get these marks—people Robbert does not know and never met. These marked apples are physical evidence that no reasonable person could attribute to Robbert’s direct intervention.
In 2013, in one case Robbert was picked up off his motorbike, apparently by a spinning “light-ball,” and then plopped down unconscious in a new Dutch crop circle. In 2000, Robbert watched a field form under a flashing UFO as it descended over the field. In that maize circle anomalous “popped” or exploded, not cut lower maize stem nodes were found…just as they are regularly in maize circles in both the U.S. and Canada. This is more evidence of exposure of the plants to intense bursts of heat:
There were also two spectacular Dutch maize circles in 2013. The night before this “Celtic Cross” appeared Robbert “saw” (in his mind’s eye”) both the design of the new circle and a UFO over this field, and drew a picture for me before going to the field to find it.
The “Celtic Cross” had a unique and spectacular “lay” and there were “expulsion cavities” (the same sort we have been seeing for years in maize circles in North America throughout the corn stalks as shown.
So this report includes both some scientifically-established evidence of anomalous changes to crop circle plants, now documented again in circles which occur around Robbert — as well as bizarre physical marks on apples.
Another report is being prepared about more—and this time specific—marks on apples which appeared in Holland in 2014, as well as some of the other remarkable circles around Robbert last summer. Thanks to Nancy Talbott http://www.bltresearch.com/robbert/AppleReportPt1.pdf .
Islamic State (ISIS) forced out of
Kobani
CNN — On Monday, Kurdish fighters declared that they have victory in Kobani the Syrian city on the border to Turkey that has released the city from the ISIS grip after 112 days of fighting. Two purported ISIS fighters interviewed by the Amak News Agency working in ISIS-held territory have given the same reason for the militants’ retreat from Kobani: the constant pummeling by coalition airstrikes. ISIS controlled area shown in Pink. The efforts of the Kurdish fighters — known as the YPG, or People’s Protection Units — on the ground were backed by an extensive campaign of around the clock airstrikes by the U.S.-led international coalition against ISIS. According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a London-based opposition group, from October 6 to Monday the fighting for Kobani killed 979 ISIS combatants, 324 YPG fighters and 12 rebels backing the YPG.
ISIS spokesmen claim we have withdrawn from Kobani (Ayn Al-Islam) bit by bit, because of the airstrikes and deaths of a number of our brothers,” said one of the two fighters, his face covered apart from his eyes. He points to a scene of destruction behind him but vows that ISIS will persist, “and this is the message we send to Obama.”
He said ISIS forces had raided 360 villages around Kobani, from which the people “ran away like rats.” But the reason behind their withdrawal from the city, he said, “is that we no longer had places to hold there. We were inside (Kobami) and we occupied more than 70%, but the airstrikes did not leave any building standing, they destroyed everything.”
“I swear by Allah, their planes did not leave the air, day and night; they did airstrikes all day and night. They targeted everything. They even attacked motorcycles; they have not left a building standing.
A Jordanian pilot was burned to death in a steal cage and Isis rants, “Obama we will cut off your head in the White House, and transform America into a Muslim Province.” It is a Qur’an-sounding tirade. We will drown all of you in blood': ISIS in chilling video threat to America after they lose control of strategic dam following U.S. air strikes. After the beheadings of two Japanese newsmen the video footage shows blood-spattered U.S. flag and image of a beheaded American. The Islamic State Jihadists threaten to attack U.S. ‘in any place’ in revenge for the Iraq offensive and loss of Kobani and the Kurds recapture of the Mosul Dam with help of U.S. fighter jets and drone strikes. Failure of dam could kill thousands and threaten U.S. embassy in Baghdad. Thanks to http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2728611/ISIS-chilling-video-threat-America-lose-control-strategic-dam-following-U-S-air-strikes.html#ixzz3Qe6di93F A report by Rudaw, ISIS launched an assault on Iraq’s oil-rich city of Kirkuk and captured 15 employees working at the Khabbaz oilfield southwest of Kirkuk.

Rich versus Poor
Harry S. Dent writes, Oxfam just came out with a report that shows that the top 1% in the world have controlled between 46% and 48% of the wealth since 2000, almost as extreme as in the U.S. at 51%. Both of these trends have been rising since 2008 due to quantitative easing (QE) policies.
The top 80 billionaires control as much wealth as the bottom 50% or about 3.5 billion people. This staggering inequality is proving to be a powerful catalyst to the current power struggle that’s playing out globally.
Chicago billionaires Chris Reye’s home.
You can call it Islam versus the West, but part of the fight is the poor versus the rich. The greatest terror insurgencies come from countries that have a very high percentage of Muslim population and are poorer than $5,000 GDP per capita. Muslims in the Middle East see fabulously wealthy oil Princes and envy the Western countries where the average person has $40,000 plus per capita incomes compared to $2,000 to $5,000 or lower! This helps them turn to Jihad to conquer countries for Allah. Thanks to Harry S. Dent

Sightings of UFOs in the United States
Arizona Lights+
Chandler – I filmed two segments of something large and apparently machine-like in the sky near my house near Phoenix, with 54X zoom Panasonic camcorder. The segments were a minute long. Thanks to MUFON CMS
California Lights
Barstow– I was on holyday with a friend of mine and was driving back from Las Vegas and looking around the landscape, and told to my friend “Look over there, that cloud is strange, take a photo“.
I hope that anyone can tell me what it could be since I checked many pages about cloud formations and no one has this form. Excuse me for my bad English, but I´m from Argentina. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Anderson – I was using the Robert Bingham summoning technique, and this purple orb appeared under Mt. Shasta on January 31, 2015. It increased in brightness and then decreased. It was a purple/violet color.
The whole experience lasted a few minutes. I do not recommend summoning, because we don’t know what we are dealing with. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Colorado Lights
Denver — — A UFO was witnessed by me and at least four others on January 30th, 2015, at 8:57 PM. I served as a helicopter crewman and aviation warfare specialist in the Navy for six years with 900 flight hours where I had to constantly identify lights in the distance. My friend who served with me also saw the UFO. I did my best to take pictures and video on my IPhone 4. There were five of us that saw the craft while attending the Red Rocks Amphitheater Concert.
The UFO had a circle of eight steady glowing lights; six were green, and two red. It seemed to be a solid object as the lights moved together, as though they were all attached to one craft. The red lights were always at the aft of the craft whenever it moved in a direction. The craft hovered and then began moving in patterns, stopping into a hover again at different positions as if it was checking out the event. The craft was able to change direction, speed, and altitude as smoothly as moving a mouse on a computer screen. It did not appear to be affected by gravity or wind resistance. There was also no observable pitch, roll or yaw when the craft changed directions like a conventional aircraft. It was 1000 to 1500 feet above the ground about the size of a P-3 Orion four engine aircraft. It came in and out of sight for several minutes before it vanished. I don’t know any aircraft as fast or as maneuverable as what we saw. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Aurora– On January 29, 2015, a light moved across the horizon from left to right that was captured on video next to pole. The light then disappeared. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Florida Objects
Titusville– I am submitting the attached photos because I unknowingly captured an odd looking object in the sky when photographing a bird on January 26, 2015. I was taking pictures at the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge with two friends. My friend loves Kingfishers and asked me to capture it. None of us saw anything at the time. When I was reviewing my photos later that day, nothing on the first two but this odd artifact is in three photos taken a second apart. It is not on later images. These were taken with a Canon DSLR D70 camera with a 100-400mm zoom lens with a UV filter. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Georgia Cigar
Moultrie – I know aircraft having spent six years in the military working with Special Operations and recently worked as an Army contractor seeing every type aircraft. On February 2, 2015, I stepped out to see a small silent cigar shaped silhouette with four bright lights heading south in a perfect straight line. The two lights in the middle were bigger and brighter. I then noticed the Blackhawk helicopter that I could clearly see the tail light on. Halfway through the sighting the two middle lights on the cigar got extremely bright for about 10 seconds and then dimmed. It was odd because the cigar flew in such a precise route and I couldn’t tell what type this aircraft could possibly be. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Maryland Lights
Chester – I left my residence in Queenstown for dinner on January 27, 2015, driving on Highway 50 West, when I noticed a few bright lights in the sky as my watched beeped 9:00 PM.
At the 50W/301 split I noticed that the orbs would brighten and then dim. I decided to try and get closer. I took the exit for Piney Narrows Road that goes under the Kent Narrows Bridge and puts you on Main Street in Chester. I was able to get this image of four of the lights. Thanks to MUFON CMS
New Jersey Lights and Triangle
Keyport — around 7:30 p.m. my uncle and I stepped outside and we noticed a large bright moon and a bronze or gold orb-like object next to the moon. I knew this object didn’t belong and to my amazement it blinked out only to appear on the other side of the Moon.
I had my phone in my hand and immediately started to snap pictures. I captured four photos and switched to video. To my amazement the object reappeared moving slowly north and then with great speed and unnatural movement ascended towards space and disappeared. I was completely stunned and scared. I hope from the images somebody knows what this object was. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Basking Ridge – On January 27, 2015 at 6:50 PM, I was driving west on Spring Valley Boulevard just under the low cloud cover, I observed a very large, black triangular object with flashing red, white and blue lights. It was moving at a very high speed and was not making the sounds that a low flying airplane would. I kept losing it among tall trees and houses, but I did follow it long enough (and saw it enough times) to see it make a sharp turn downward and to the left. Its lights were flashing brightly and appeared to alternate from red, to white, to blue. I parked in front of my house and ran from my car just as the craft disappeared from view above and behind the trees of the Bonnie Brae School. It was completely silent and there were no other witnesses. I looked for the craft to reappear and sadly was not able to get any photos of it. Due to its shape, the rapidly flashing lights and the sharp turns it took, I was completely sure that what I saw was not an airplane. Thanks to MUFON CMS
New Mexico Triangle of Lights
Santa Ana Pueblo — I was staying at the Hyatt Tamaya on business on January 15, 2015, and was attracted by the beautiful sunset skies. About 7:05 PM, I took a photo to send to my wife using my iPhone 4s. They lights were not visible to the naked eye, and only showed up when I checked the photos.
I am a licensed pilot, with instrument rating, and a former amateur astronomer, so I’m accustomed to observing the skies and noticing details. The lights did not appear in any other photo, either before or after. There were no other point light sources in the area that might have been bright enough to cause reflections in the lens. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Tennessee Jumping Lights
Franklin – My cousin and I were sitting outside at night in July 2014, and he said that he saw a glowing light that moving around like a fly in the sky.
I saw it soon after and we went to the field that it was flying over silently. It was like it saw us and moved right over our heads at a speed I have never seen before. Here is the best photo we got of it.
Note:The witness doesn’t remember the exact date and time of photo. The photo was of very low resolution so enlargement does not reveal much detail.
Thanks to William Puckett, Director Http://www.UFOsnw.com
Texas Double Orbs
Hale Center – My partner and I were working when he asked me to look to see two bright objects in the sky on January 24, 2015. The lights were real close to each other and my partner said. “They look like two circles side by side making unusual movements that aircraft can’t make.” As we watched it sped up, turned, and slowed down so I took some pictures. Another person comes and he is also baffled as to what the flying object is.
I ran to the front of my work place to get a better photo as it vanishes. We are sure we saw something incredible. It has changed my thoughts since we have never seen anything like it. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Washington Ball
Bremerton – We were having a family fireworks show in the yard, so my brother took photos of all the fireworks with his phone. We were watching a very bright white, low to the ground crackling fireworks on an eight foot plywood table on saw horses. My brother called us over to show us his images and asked what the heck we thought the red ball was? None of us saw anything but the firework in action on the table. It is baffling; you can see a whisk of smoke rising toward the red object.
If you look carefully you can see the size of the object pulls at the ambient smoke that was in the air, like it rushed into the photo at just that moment. It is a complete mystery as to what and why that object showed in the photo. It was completely out of our visual detection.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Note:The camera may have an infrared capability that picked the heat from the fireworks.
Worldwide UFO Reports
Argentina Disc
Villa Ocampo, Santa Fe – The strange object was captured by fishermen who were in the Paraná River area on January 5, 2015. A UFO again surprised the fishermen from the village Villa Ocampo who already witnessed on several occasions these alien’ apparitions in the province of Santa Fe, says Fernandez Sofy. A group of native fishermen in one arm of the Paraná River saw a UFO again at the parador “Phoenix”, to the coast of Rio.
My mom went on vacation back in 2011, and she loves taking pictures. It wasn’t until she had gotten home from vacation and she was showing me her pictures that we noticed a bright cigar shaped light in front of the clouds. She had no idea what she had taken in the picture. We know it’s not the moon or any craft that we have ever seen. When you zoom in all the way you can notice an additional much smaller object.
We lost the picture but recently found it, and that’s why we are submitting it. I don’t know if this is a real UFO, but it’s something that I cannot come up with a reasonable explanation for. It is clearly NOT the moon because it’s in front of the clouds. My mother does not recall seeing the object. A much smaller object is visible to the left. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Australia Huge UFO
Brisbane— In July 2001, I was out fishing one night alone in my sailboat when I witnessed a very large UFO, at close range, for over an hour. There was 90% cloud cover with no moon I was drifting because of no wind, and reclining in the cockpit at 2 AM. I noticed 10 km south, three solid bright red lights in a triangular formation. They were approaching my position at 15 knots and 300 meters altitude. As they came closer, I noticed another three red lights following, 4 km. behind. Looking around I saw two more sets of red lights, equal-distant to the others. I was between several small islands, and can accurately report the UFO’s dimensions as being 5 km. across. As it slowly passed directly overhead, its underside was illuminated from the lights of a city 40 km. away. It was a massive disc, with turrets, antennae, and one very large brilliant white spotlight in the middle. It was making a low buzzing noise, and took 30 minutes to pass overhead. I could plainly see it was an upside down saucer shape. I don’t drink or do drugs, this is as real as it gets. There was nothing in the media even though it passed over the International airport on its way north. I am a very experienced seaman/bushman, and this is not my only encounter, although the largest so far. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Sydney – This video was taken by UFO researcher Laszlo on January 25, 2015 who goes by colorful on YouTube. The eyewitness states: “The camera I used was a Sony D C R-T R V 530 Digital Camera with IR 850 Infra red optical fitted filter with daylight capture and super night shot position on!” I am very happy to see them and capture them on my camera! This is my life now!! I have no FEAR, and NO LIMIT!!
I’m flying to Mexico to film and capturing more. Thanks to ufosightingsdaily.com
Brazil Lights
Leopoldina — My name is Charles Mendes Carvalho and was in my hotel and observed an object hovering above the church on August 31, 2014.
I saw yesterday a program from mufon an object that was equal to what I had seen and got scared.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Canada Lights
Fredericton– I noticed this light in the sky on several nights and on January 21, 2015. It was a clear night and it was pulsing red, blue, white, yellow and green. I’ve taken several pictures, but last night was the first time I’ve got anything special. I live near the Fredericton Airport and know it’s not normal aircraft.
I served 27 years in the Canadian Air Force and I’m familiar with flight characteristics. This object maintains a specific position for two hours at times. It’s not there every clear night so I know it’s not normal. I have about 50 pictures of this object. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Denmark Light
Nyborg – I went out for a cigarette and saw a big, reddish light on January 24, 2015, .and got my iPhone, and took pictures. The light was gone a couple of minutes later. It was bigger than stars and planets on a clear night but had no movement. No flight radar track in sight. Thanks to Director Peter Davenport http://nuforc.org/
France Triangle
A major French government official has said that it was a UFO that hovered over their nuclear plants. In the fall of 2014, it was reported that there were 13 to 18 incidents of French nuclear power plants being targets of surveillance by UFOs. The sketch looks very much like a typical triangle UFO with a red light in the middle. The story is in French but translated: One of them was described in a presentation by Director Pascal Pezzani on the security status of his Blayais Nuclear Power Plant in southwestern France. He told the audience that there definitely was something flying over the facility that was not a drone and was a UFO.
Predappio – On January 26, 2015, I was in my car going to work when I saw a very bright red ball brighter than any other planet or star visible.. The ball was about 2 km in height and 5 km away. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Siracusa — I am submitting this event since the actual witness gave me permission to post the report. “One year ago, on January 29, 2014, while opening the front door to a salesman, I witnessed three disc shaped objects in the sky. I estimated their distance to be about 500 meters from me. They flew in a zigzag manner flying north. The entire event lasted not more than two minutes. The salesman, my spouse and I are witnesses to the event.” I submit two photos of the discs and a map of where the sighting took place. I reported the event to the local authorities, but have not heard back from them or anyone else.” The discs appear in the center of both photos and are small in size until the photos are magnified. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Mexico Orb
Tijuana— This orb was caught on January 23, 2015, over Tijuana and has been constantly rotating
Catching some of these UFOs are difficult, especially if it’s bright white. The brightness causes the camera to become unable to focus, but this witness did a good job and had a steady hand. Thanks to ufosightingsdaily.com
New Zealand Orb
Ohope Beach – On January 22, 2015, I was taking pictures of the beach area when I spotted the dark object in the sky.
The object did not move at all, and just vanished after a few minutes! Thanks to MUFON CMS’
Slovenia Disc
Ljubljana – I was smoking on my balcony and just looking up at the sky in that moment on January 28, 2015, I saw what looked like a comet. It was moving way too slow in a horizontal line to be a comet. I’m questioning what that object was as I’m confused as it vanished after a while. Thanks to MUFON CMS
UK/England – Saucer
Newton Abbot Devon – On January 27, 2015, I managed to capture this flying saucer with my Sony H300 20 megapixel digital camera.
The flying saucer was clearly visible and had a metallic look to it. The saucer was rocking backward and forward in a strange rocking motion.
The saucer then straightened out and flew off at great speed and out of sight. The data was set wrong on the camera as the photo was taken at 12:53 PM GMT at Newton Abbot Devon. Thanks to William Puckett, Director Http://www.UFOsnw.com
Birmingham– This ufo was captured over Birmingham Hagley Road up to no good doing alien activities. It was witnessed by the big Spaniard and myself on January 28. 2015.
Thanks to MUFON CMS.

February 6, 2015 - More than anywhere known to man, Europa, Jupiter’s icy moon, shows strong evidence that extraterrestrial life may exist. This week, NASA is one step closer to exploring it.
This week, the space agency proposed its $18.5 billion budget for next year, allotting $30 million for a robotic mission to freezing sphere.
“This is a big deal,” said Casey Dreier, the director of advocacy at the Planetary Society, a nonprofit that lobbied for more 15 years for this mission, as Wired reported. “This budget basically fills in the missing piece that will enable this mission to go forward.”
Discovered four centuries ago by Galileo, Europa is one of Jupiter’s many moons. It’s about 485 million miles from the sun and about the size of our own moon.
Europa is covered in an icy shell. Beneath that shell, scientists believe there is subsurface ocean larger than any on Earth.
“Jupiter is so strong that it provides enough friction energy to keep water liquid — even as the water on the surface hits incredibly low temperatures and freezes,” The Washington Post’s Rachel Feltman wrote. “It’s possible that a salty ocean is able to interact with the rock of the sea floor, which could provide the kind of chemical energy that begets life.”

Scientists have dreamed of a mission to Europa for a long time, but sending a robotic probe would require one that could withstand Jupiter’s harsh radiation. “What we’ve been looking at is a multiple flyby mission,” Bob Pappalardo, the mission’s project scientist, told Wired.
If the budget is approved by Congress, the mission could launch by the mid 2020s, Wired reported, and wouldn’t get to the moon until 2030.
“If we were to discover some kind of microbe on Mars, or something alive in the oceans of Europa, it would change the world,” scientist Bill Nye told The Post. “It would change human history. Everyone in the world would feel differently about what it meant to be alive.”

Look at this cool disk that was discovered this week in Siberia. Without an analysis of its material, we are left wanting. This object does resemble an alien drone, a small disk that is sent out to monitor an area, but lighting can bring one down. I have never seen one this old before. Also it could be a dropa disk. An ancient stone disk with alien information about their culture and life stored in the disk. Such dropa disks were confiscated by the Chinese Government and hidden from view. This disk needs to be tested, not just for what its made from, but for any data that could be stored in it. SCW News states:
Do these intriguing images show a UFO that fell to Planet Earth from outer space thousands of years ago, embedding itself deep in the ground? The bizarre flying saucer-shaped object was dug up during excavation work by a coal mining company in Siberia's Kuznetsk Basin, Russia. Archaeologists, were called in to examine the 'craft', which the excavators believe is a man-made object, describing it as a "mystery". However, sky-watchers are convinced itThe unusual object is almost perfectly circular, with a diameter of around 1.2 meters and weighing roughly 440lbs - that's 31 stone. Excavator Boris Glazkov, 40, who found the object, said: "I have to say it wasn't hard to see as it was really distinctive and large. "I've never seen anything like this object, which is obviously man-made out, here in the middle of nowhere before. It is a real mystery." (more at source).

UFO files shed light on a bygone era in New England
UFO files shed light on a bygone era in New England
By Sylvan LaneGlobe Correspondent
WASHINGTON — James Louis Warsher and a friend were driving across the Anderson Memorial Bridge in Harvard Square when they noticed a dull gray elliptical vessel tinted with muted yellow light descending from the sky. It was around 8:30 p.m. on Sept. 9, 1964, and the two were among 11 Bostonians who reported UFO sightings that night.
Air Force investigators said the object was just an advertising plane. They confirmed it by cross-checking the aircraft’s flight plan with civilian reports of when and where they saw UFO.
Air Force files from a 1952 incident in which a Salem man captured photographs of four bright lights in the sky, which might have been the reflection of lamps in a window.
But the Air Force’s official explanation — here you may cue the “X-Files’’ theme song — couldn’t answer one issue: When Warsher and his friend saw the UFO, it was flying within sight of the same plane the investigators purported it to be.
This story is one of more than 12,000 chronicled by Project Blue Book, the Air Force’s UFO investigation program that ran from 1947 to 1969. The once-classified files spent most of the past 40 years as microfilm reels in the National Archives, but they have become more accessible to the general public in recent years through Fold3, a commercial database of government and military documents.
The database includes 4,429 reports from New England — 1,910 from Massachusetts — though others from the region might not be properly sorted. Readers can sort the files by date, state, and when they were added to the website.
The pages of witness testimonies, official memos, maps, and flight patterns bring to life a pivotal period in American history, when a wealthier but war-shaken United States turned its attention to technological threats from the Soviet Union and beyond. The collection reveals how the nation’s military bureaucracy painstakingly documented what amounted to a cultural phenomenon of the Cold War.
“It’s a part of America’s comparatively recent history that people have forgotten, if indeed they ever knew it,” said Nick Pope, a California researcher and freelance journalist who investigated UFO sightings in the United Kingdom for the British government. “For years, actually, the government took this very seriously, and I think people quite often are skeptical and cynical about UFOs, probably because of the treatment it gets from Hollywood or even shows like ‘South Park.’ ”
A team of Air Force investigators conducted Project Blue Book out of Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio, taking in reports of UFO sightings from across the country and churning out explanations for what civilians and military personnel witnessed. Investigators dismissed the vast majority of these cases as aircraft, balloons, weather inversions, or heavenly bodies.
Project Blue Book was conducted in an era defined by technological innovation and immense paranoia. It ran from two years after the atomic bombings in Japan until the year men walked on the moon, and peaked with the tensest years of the Cold War. With Americans on the lookout for Soviet or Martian invaders, recorded sightings range from innocent mistakes by well-meaning people to bizarre reports from military officials.
The military preoccupation with both UFOs and covert planes has roots in a pre-World War II effort to bolster aerial photography, said Donald Welzenbach, a retired CIA officer who co-wrote a 1998 report that attributed many UFO sightings to American U-2 spy planes.
“All of these little people you don’t know about,” he said, “these guys were brilliant.”
Not every alleged UFO sighting was secret military technology. A Salem man in 1952 captured stunning photographs of four bright lights in the sky, which might have been the reflection of lamps in a window. In 1965, a man near Pease Air Force Base in Portsmouth, N.H., mistook a NASA satellite for an alien spaceship.
Other reports are still puzzling. On Feb. 5, 1950, seven people in Teaticket, a community on Cape Cod, saw two cylindrical objects float in the sky one evening. One of the objects dropped a fireball, and the pair quickly vanished. Seven months later, two F-86 pilots flying out of Otis Air Force Base picked up an aircraft on their radar going 1,200 miles per hour. The pilots never saw it, and Air Force personnel said the mystery craft made a turn so tight at a speed so high, the pilot would have endured forces sufficient to render some people unconscious.
Even though the Air Force deemed only a small portion of the reports unexplainable, UFO researcher Stanton Friedman believes Project Blue Book barely scratches the surface of American UFO investigations. Friedman claims “the Air Force has gotten away with carefully worded misrepresentation,” of its interest in the aircraft.
The Air Force, which declined to comment for this article, shut down Project Blue Book in 1969 after the agency found no threats to national security, no novel technology, and no evidence of extraterrestrial origin from the unknown aircraft. The Red Scare is history, and scientists have now turned to distant icy moons in the search for extraterrestrial life. Still, the unanswered queries from a bygone era linger.
“I wish the government would get back into this,” said Pope, “because it’s one of the biggest and most profound questions of all time.’’

The 20 big questions in science
The 20 big questions in science
From the nature of the universe (that's if there is only one) to the purpose of dreams, there are lots of things we still don't know – but we might do soon. A new book seeks some answers
What's at the bottom of a black hole? See question 17. Photograph: Alamy
1 What is the universe made of?
Astronomers face an embarrassing conundrum: they don't know what 95% of the universe is made of. Atoms, which form everything we see around us, only account for a measly 5%. Over the past 80 years it has become clear that the substantial remainder is comprised of two shadowy entities – dark matter and dark energy. The former, first discovered in 1933, acts as an invisible glue, binding galaxies and galaxy clusters together. Unveiled in 1998, the latter is pushing the universe's expansion to ever greater speeds. Astronomers are closing in on the true identities of these unseen interlopers.
2 How did life begin?
Four billion years ago, something started stirring in the primordial soup. A few simple chemicals got together and made biology – the first molecules capable of replicating themselves appeared. We humans are linked by evolution to those early biological molecules. But how did the basic chemicals present on early Earth spontaneously arrange themselves into something resembling life? How did we get DNA? What did the first cells look like? More than half a century after the chemist Stanley Miller proposed his "primordial soup" theory, we still can't agree about what happened. Some say life began in hot pools near volcanoes, others that it was kick-started by meteorites hitting the sea.
3 Are we alone in the universe?
Perhaps not. Astronomers have been scouring the universe for places where water worlds might have given rise to life, from Europa and Mars in our solar system to planets many light years away. Radio telescopes have been eavesdropping on the heavens and in 1977 a signal bearing the potential hallmarks of an alien message was heard. Astronomers are now able to scan the atmospheres of alien worlds for oxygen and water. The next few decades will be an exciting time to be an alien hunter with up to 60bn potentially habitable planets in our Milky Way alone.
4 What makes us human?
Just looking at your DNA won't tell you – the human genome is 99% identical to a chimpanzee's and, for that matter, 50% to a banana's. We do, however, have bigger brains than most animals – not the biggest, but packed with three times as many neurons as a gorilla (86bn to be exact). A lot of the things we once thought distinguishing about us – language, tool-use, recognising yourself in the mirror – are seen in other animals. Perhaps it's our culture – and its subsequent effect on our genes (and vice versa) – that makes the difference. Scientists think that cooking and our mastery of fire may have helped us gain big brains. But it's possible that our capacity for co-operation and skills trade is what really makes this a planet of humans and not apes.
5 What is consciousness?
We're still not really sure. We do know that it's to do with different brain regions networked together rather than a single part of the brain. The thinking goes that if we figure out which bits of the brain are involved and how the neural circuitry works, we'll figure out how consciousness emerges, something that artificial intelligence and attempts to build a brain neuron by neuron may help with. The harder, more philosophical, question is why anything should be conscious in the first place. A good suggestion is that by integrating and processing lots of information, as well as focusing and blocking out rather than reacting to the sensory inputs bombarding us, we can distinguish between what's real and what's not and imagine multiple future scenarios that help us adapt and survive.
6 Why do we dream?
We spend around a third of our lives sleeping. Considering how much time we spend doing it, you might think we'd know everything about it. But scientists are still searching for a complete explanation of why we sleep and dream. Subscribers to Sigmund Freud's views believed dreams were expressions of unfulfilled wishes – often sexual – while others wonder whether dreams are anything but the random firings of a sleeping brain. Animal studies and advances in brain imaging have led us to a more complex understanding that suggests dreaming could play a role in memory, learning and emotions. Rats, for example, have been shown to replay their waking experiences in dreams, apparently helping them to solve complex tasks such as navigating mazes.
7 Why is there stuff?
You really shouldn't be here. The "stuff" you're made of is matter, which has a counterpart called antimatter differing only in electrical charge. When they meet, both disappear in a flash of energy. Our best theories suggest that the big bang created equal amounts of the two, meaning all matter should have since encountered its antimatter counterpart, scuppering them both and leaving the universe awash with only energy. Clearly nature has a subtle bias for matter otherwise you wouldn't exist. Researchers are sifting data from experiments like the Large Hadron Collider trying to understand why, with supersymmetry and neutrinos the two leading contenders.
8 Are there other universes?
Our universe is a very unlikely place. Alter some of its settings even slightly and life as we know it becomes impossible. In an attempt to unravel this "fine-tuning" problem, physicists are increasingly turning to the notion of other universes. If there is an infinite number of them in a "multiverse" then every combination of settings would be played out somewhere and, of course, you find yourself in the universe where you are able to exist. It may sound crazy, but evidence from cosmology and quantum physics is pointing in that direction.
9 Where do we put all the carbon?
For the past couple of hundred years, we've been filling the atmosphere with carbon dioxide – unleashing it by burning fossil fuels that once locked away carbon below the Earth's surface. Now we have to put all that carbon back, or risk the consequences of a warming climate. But how do we do it? One idea is to bury it in old oil and gas fields. Another is to hide it away at the bottom of the sea. But we don't know how long it will stay there, or what the risks might be. Meanwhile, we have to protect natural, long-lasting stores of carbon, such as forests and peat bogs, and start making energy in a way that doesn't belch out even more.
10 How do we get more energy from the sun?
Dwindling supplies of fossil fuels mean we're in need of a new way to power our planet. Our nearest star offers more than one possible solution. We're already harnessing the sun's energy to produce solar power. Another idea is to use the energy in sunlight to split water into its component parts: oxygen, and hydrogen, which could provide a clean fuel for cars of the future. Scientists are also working on an energy solution that depends on recreating the processes going on inside stars themselves – they're building a nuclear fusion machine. The hope is that these solutions can meet our energy needs.
11 What's so weird about prime numbers?
The fact you can shop safely on the internet is thanks to prime numbers – those digits that can only be divided by themselves and one. Public key encryption – the heartbeat of internet commerce – uses prime numbers to fashion keys capable of locking away your sensitive information from prying eyes. And yet, despite their fundamental importance to our everyday lives, the primes remain an enigma. An apparent pattern within them – the Riemann hypothesis – has tantalised some of the brightest minds in mathematics for centuries. However, as yet, no one has been able to tame their weirdness. Doing so might just break the internet.
12 How do we beat bacteria?
Antibiotics are one of the miracles of modern medicine. Sir Alexander Fleming's Nobel prize-winning discovery led to medicines that fought some of the deadliest diseases and made surgery, transplants and chemotherapy possible. Yet this legacy is in danger – in Europe around 25,000 people die each year of multidrug-resistant bacteria. Our drug pipeline has been sputtering for decades and we've been making the problem worse through overprescription and misuse of antibiotics – an estimated 80% of US antibiotics goes to boosting farm animal growth. Thankfully, the advent of DNA sequencing is helping us discover antibiotics we never knew bacteria could produce. Alongside innovative, if gross-sounding, methods such as transplanting "good" bacteria from fecal matter, and the search for new bacteria deep in the oceans, we may yet keep abreast in this arms race with organisms 3bn years our senior.
13 Can computers keep getting faster?
Our tablets and smartphones are mini-computers that contain more computing power than astronauts took to the moon in 1969. But if we want to keep on increasing the amount of computing power we carry around in our pockets, how are we going to do it? There are only so many components you can cram on to a computer chip. Has the limit been reached, or is there another way to make a computer? Scientists are considering new materials, such as atomically thin carbon – graphene – as well as new systems, such as quantum computing.
14 Will we ever cure cancer?
The short answer is no. Not a single disease, but a loose group of many hundreds of diseases, cancer has been around since the dinosaurs and, being caused by haywire genes, the risk is hardwired into all of us. The longer we live, the more likely something might go wrong, in any number of ways. For cancer is a living thing – ever-evolving to survive. Yet though incredibly complicated, through genetics we're learning more and more about what causes it, how it spreads and getting better at treating and preventing it. And know this: up to half of all cancers – 3.7m a year – are preventable; quit smoking, drink and eat moderately, stay active, and avoid prolonged exposure to the midday sun.
15 When can I have a robot butler?
Robots can already serve drinks and carry suitcases. Modern robotics can offer us a "staff" of individually specialised robots: they ready your Amazon orders for delivery, milk your cows, sort your email and ferry you between airport terminals. But a truly "intelligent" robot requires us to crack artificial intelligence. The real question is whether you'd leave a robotic butler alone in the house with your granny. And with Japan aiming to have robotic aides caring for its elderly by 2025, we're thinking hard about it now.
16 What's at the bottom of the ocean?
Ninety-five per cent of the ocean is unexplored. What's down there? In 1960, Don Walsh and Jacques Piccard travelled seven miles down, to the deepest part of the ocean, in search of answers. Their voyage pushed the boundaries of human endeavour but gave them only a glimpse of life on the seafloor. It's so difficult getting to the bottom of the ocean that for the most part we have to resort to sending unmanned vehicles as scouts. The discoveries we've made so far – from bizarre fish such as the barreleye, with its transparent head, to a potential treatment for Alzheimer's made by crustaceans – are a tiny fraction of the strange world hidden below the waves.
17 What's at the bottom of a black hole?
It's a question we don't yet have the tools to answer. Einstein's general relativity says that when a black hole is created by a dying, collapsing massive star, it continues caving in until it forms an infinitely small, infinitely dense point called a singularity. But on such scales quantum physics probably has something to say too. Except that general relativity and quantum physics have never been the happiest of bedfellows – for decades they have withstood all attempts to unify them. However, a recent idea – called M-Theory – may one day explain the unseen centre of one of the universe's most extreme creations.
18 Can we live for ever?
We live in an amazing time: we're starting to think of "ageing" not as a fact of life, but a disease that can be treated and possibly prevented, or at least put off for a very long time. Our knowledge of what causes us to age – and what allows some animals to live longer than others – is expanding rapidly. And though we haven't quite worked out all the details, the clues we are gathering about DNA damage, the balance of ageing, metabolism and reproductive fitness, plus the genes that regulate this, are filling out a bigger picture, potentially leading to drug treatments. But the real question is not how we're going to live longer but how we are going to live well longer. And since many diseases, such as diabetes and cancer, are diseases of ageing, treating ageing itself could be the key.
19 How do we solve the population problem?
The number of people on our planet has doubled to more than 7 billion since the 1960s and it is expected that by 2050 there will be at least 9 billion of us. Where are we all going to live and how are we going to make enough food and fuel for our ever-growing population? Maybe we can ship everyone off to Mars or start building apartment blocks underground. We could even start feeding ourselves with lab-grown meat. These may sound like sci-fi solutions, but we might have to start taking them more seriously.
20 Is time travel possible
Time travellers already walk among us. Thanks to Einstein's theory of special relativity, astronauts orbiting on the International Space Station experience time ticking more slowly. At that speed the effect is minuscule, but ramp up the velocity and the effect means that one day humans might travel thousands of years into the future. Nature seems to be less fond of people going the other way and returning to the past, however some physicists have concocted an elaborate blueprint for a way to do it using wormholes and spaceships. It could even be used to hand yourself a present on Christmas Day, or answer some of the many questions that surround the universe's great unknowns.

Video shows strange glowing cloud rapidly changing shape
Video shows strange glowing cloud rapidly changing shape
A video posted on YouTube of a cloud with a strange glow quickly changing shape has gone viral. Some have speculated that the phenomenon is due to the government’s High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP), others have suggested it is due to ice crystals while others believe UFOs may be to blame.
HAARP is often blamed for atmospheric anomalies and natural disasters. It is a jointly funded project to study the ionosphere funded by the US Air Force, the US Navy, the University of Alaska and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). The program’s focus is to identify new technologies for radio communications and surveillance. Among other things, HAARP has also been blamed for earthquakes, weather modification and mind control.

The Alaska Dispatch is skeptical of these claims, but does feel the project can do more to dispel these rumors. They write, “What makes HAARP susceptible to conspiracy criticism is simple. The facility doesn’t open its doors in the same way as other federally-funded research facilities around the country, and it doesn’t go to great efforts to explain the importance of its research to the public.”
According to The Telegraph, the most likely explanation is that the “dancing cloud” phenomenon is due to the refraction of light through ice crystals. They explain, “These crystals act as prisms and bend the light that passes through them, often prompting a parhelion, a similar phenomenon more commonly known as a ‘sun dog.’”

Theories of any UFO involvement with the cloud in the video are just random comments without much explanation.

Large Bright UFO Moves Across the Sky Over Hills in Kinlochard, Scotland
Large Bright UFO Moves Across the Sky Over Hills in Kinlochard, Scotland
Posters Comments Don't be put off by this film just showing a light moving across the sky. Try to watch all the way through and you will definitely be discounting planes, lanterns etc and like me will be questioning what this large, very bright object could have been.......Read on What is this? YOU decide. Filmed 5.25pm on 1st Feb 2015 from Kinlochard, Scotland, looking South South West. Very bright large white (reddish) light moves across sky above hills. Filmed for over fifteen minutes this was definitely not a Chinese lantern (too large, too bright and too long in the sky), aircraft (No flight path and too low and slow) or helicopter (would have seen usual flashing green/red lights and heard something but object was silent plus the way it moved tells me not this type of aircraft). It moved slowly and silently. It went behind forest trees on top of the high hills which are approx one mile away and still appeared to be quite a bit further than this but even though it was some distance the size from where I was filming still appeared to be large and very bright. Judging distance and approximate location I would say that it was going over or flying close to Loch Lomond (Here is a rough idea where it may have been flying over: Grid ref – NS 39750-97783, Latitude:56.145741 Longitude: -4.5809916).
Posters Comments Continued
Although it flew over a remote area of the Trossachs National Park others must have seen it and probably with a better view. Would be good to know what this was and if anybody else got to see it. Could it be the planet Venus, as according to astronomy intel this planet was about at this time also? So to re-cap, the object was large, was emitting a very bright white light with some red light also seen and looked at times to be pulsating. It moved silently and slowly and although I had filmed it for about fifteen minutes it would have been in the sky for longer but I had only noticed it as I was closing the curtains which is when I began to film. There is some blurring and camera shake on the film as I set the camera to manual focus and also to keep continuity of recording I carry on filming as I go upstairs to get a better view of the object.

Why Are Aliens Visiting Earth? The Answer May Surprise You
Why Are Aliens Visiting Earth? The Answer May Surprise You
UFOs Have Been Visiting Earth For a Long Time, Why?
While many acknowledge the presence of extraterrestrials in our world they are at a complete loss to explain why they are here. As with most things in life the explanation is fairly straightforward and not that difficult to comprehend. Understanding the primary motive for extraterrestrials visits will help explain the UFO Phenomena.
Most people believe that extraterrestrials are visiting Earth to monitor the progress and behavior of humanity. To a certain extent that might be true, but it is much more likely that they are periodically coming here to examine the health of Planet Earth. After all, even our scientist are beginning to come around to the idea that planet Earth is a living sentient being. In the greater cosmos, human and extraterrestrial life may be fairly common. On the other hand what little we know about other planets, and the universe at large, indicate that our home planet is an extremely desirable and rare occurrence within the cosmos.
People have wondered for a long time why ET has not made their presence known. If we are not the primary reason why they are here, why would they disclose their existence. The survival of mankind is probably very far down their list of priorities. For that matter survival of humanity may not even be on their list of priorities. Have you ever stopped to consider that Planet Earth has more value to an alien race if there were no humans inhabiting the planet.
Everything we need to sustain life has been provided for us on Planet Earth. We are blessed with an abundance of water, sunshine, breathable air, enough land and food to house and feed 7 billion people. We share Earth with millions of species of plant, animal and insect life, each playing an important role in the ecosystem, that in itself is remarkable. It makes our planet an astonishing place, a very rare and unusual gem among the stars.
Those that follow UFOs closely, know the largest wave of UFO sightings in modern time coincided with the discovery of splitting the atom and the use of Atomic Energy during WWII. In other words, when we discovered how to manipulate nuclear energy we triggered an unprecedented wave of UFO sightings.
There are well documented cases of UFOs hovering over nuclear military facilities in both the United States and Russia. Reliable witnesses state that the craft were tampering with the nuclear armament control systems. This behavior by UFOs and their occupants was not an accident and it was clearly a message to humanity.
Many people 'want' to believe that if things get out of control and WWIII gets under way our extraterrestrial brethren will step in and save humanity, nothing could be further from the truth. ET may step in and save Planet Earth, but they will have little time and no admiration for a species that never understood how good they had it in the first place.
There is little doubt that Earth's oceans, forest and species of plants and animals are worth saving. The living, breathing, self-regulating sentient being that we are living on is at the core of their mission.
UFOs have a long and documented history of appearing just after natural or man-made catastrophic events. There is not much question that they are keeping their eye on the prize we call Earth.

UFO Government Control Group?
UFO Government Control Group?
In my book “UFOs, Area 51, and Government Informants” I spent a lot of time looking at the evidence that backed the idea of an inside control group known as MJ-12. The idea of this MJ-12 group started to appear in the early 1980s, through a researcher known as Bill Moore. Moore had written a book known as the Roswell Incident which sold many copies and was the forerunner of the modern obsession with the Roswell crash. Days after Moore released the book he was contacted by US intelligence which started to tell him the story of MJ-12, the super-secret group that had been established by President Harry Truman to deal with the extraterrestrial presence on earth. Moore was fed information by both USAF master sergeant Richard Doty and a second person attached to the CIA that Bill Moore gave the code name Falcon. Later 10 more intelligence sources would come forward to provide information to Moore. It is believed that some of these may actually have been ex-CIA directors.
The Moore involvement with the MJ-12 story culminated in a document release made in 1987 by Moore and two other researchers by the names of Jamie Shandera and Stanton Friedman. The document released, marked Top Secret Restricted, purported to be a briefing document presented to then President-elect Dwight Eisenhower about the 12-person group of high level scientists and military officials who made up the elite Top Secret MJ-12 committee.
In “UFOs, MJ-12 and Government Informants” I wrote that I believed the document had been a leak of true and false material that had been authorized by present day MJ-12 type group to desensitize the public about how the flying saucer problem had been handled by the White House.
I also wrote that although some of the material in the document did not appear to be correct (like the failure to mention that there was a live alien recovered at Roswell), there was lots of evidence that indicated that this mythical MJ-12 group mentioned in the document had existed. The reason for altering the document was to avoid breaking the law by releasing classified material and to protect the overall UFO program that needed to remain classified. The evidence indicating that there actually was an MJ-12 group included the following items;
My co-author T. Scott Crain had come across a woman (USAF NCO) who had been on a 1979 declassification team in Okinawa, Japan. While declassifying documents in a General’s office the team came across a document that she told us may not have been the same document but appeared to contain all the same material. This woman was hassled when we first released the book in 1991.
In conversations with the former President of Penn State University he confirmed the MJ-12 group. His first confirmation came in 1987 just days after Moore made the MJ-12 document public. Walker said, “Yes, I know of MJ-12. I have known of them for 40 years. I believe that you’re chasing after and fighting with windmills!!”
Moya Lear, the wife of Lear Jet inventor Bill Lear, phoned her friend four-star General James Doolittle to ask if the group had existed. Doolittle confirmed the group had existed but said that is all he could say. She was prodded to do this by her son John Lear who had just become aware of the MJ-12 document.
Edgar Mitchell, the Commander of Apollo 14, is another high level person who confirmed that the group MJ-12 did exist based on sources he had.
General Arthur E. Exon, who was at Wright Field in 1947 when the alien bodies were shipped from the Roswell crash site, said he “was aware of a UFO controlling committee made up primarily of very high-ranking military officers and intelligence people. He did not know the name of the group but called them the “Unholy Thirteen.”
In July 1989, Bob Oeschler provided some of the most dramatic evidence supporting the existence of a group known as MJ-12 when he taped a conversation on the MJ-12 subject with Bobby Ray Inman. Inman stated “that MJ-12 meant something to him.," and that “he has been aware of a program to ‘indoctrinate the public’ in UFO matters prior to his retirement,” and that he had "some expertise" in the area of UFOs but his information was out of date at the time of the conversation.
Another person who gave some confirmation to the existence of MJ-12 was an archivist at the National Archives in College Park, Maryland, who approached me after a lecture in Eureka Springs, Arkansas in 2005. His job was to declassify documents for release which meant that he worked right inside the classified vault and saw all government documents before their release. He stated that a colleague had reported seeing documents with the MJ-12 designator on them years before doing declassification on Joint Chiefs of Staff documents.
Harold Stuart, a former member of the Truman administrative. He had been listed as a member of an advisory committee for MJ-12 in Robert Collins’ 2005 book Exempt from Disclosure. In replies to letter from researcher Brian Parks Stuart stated, “. I have a vague recollection of MJ-12, but not significantly specific to make a comment… I was not on the MJ-12 Advisory Board and only have a faint recollection of this project or group. I did know most of the Generals you mentioned in your letter, but sorry I cannot shed any light on your request.”
Researcher Lee Graham wrote many letters and filed dozens of FOIA requests to try and validate the MJ-12 document. On May 24, 1990, the Defense Investigative Service (DIS) responded to one of Graham’s FOIA requests by sending him back a copy of the MJ-12 document, each page of which was stamped “UNCLASSIFIED” across the lower part of the page. This indicated the document had been declassified. Graham was never able to obtain clarification on who had done the declassification.
In a 1987 letter written by John Andrews to his good friend Lockheed Skunk Works President Ben Rich, Andrews stated that he had known of MJ-12 for years “even though officially it didn’t exist.” In a discussion with Lee Graham he said he had heard of MJ-12 in early 1984 which was almost a year before researchers Moore and Shandera reviewed copies of the MJ-12 briefing document for President Eisenhower in the mail.
Since the release of the book in January 2013, there have been two new pieces of evidence that help to confirm that there was a MJ-12 UFO control group.
The first piece of new evidence came from a story that was told by Jesse Marcel Jr. who was the son of the intelligence officer at the Roswell Army Air Base that handed the July 1947 UFO crash. Marcel told his story in front of the May 2013 Citizen’s Hearing on Disclosure in Washington D.C.
According to Marcel “a number of years ago” he was called to Washington D.C. by Dick D’Amato for a meeting in a secure room in the Senate Building. D’Amato was chief counsel and chief investigator for Senator Byrd’s Senate Appropriations Committee. When the Area 51 story broke in 1989 in Nevada, Byrd and other senators on the committee (responsible for all budget spending) wondered if they were in fact financing back-engineering of flying saucers at Area 51 without being told what they were paying for. D’Amato was provided the appropriate security clearances and sent to investigate. D’Amato confirmed the alien projects but was not able to penetrate them. He told Steven Greer, “"I've been asked by Senator Byrd and some others to look into these things, and we've gotten close enough to know that these projects do exist. But I'm telling you that with a Top Secret clearance and a subpoena power from the Senate Appropriations Committee, I cannot penetrate those projects. You're dealing with the varsity team of all black projects, so watch out. And good luck."[i]
Marcel stated that he and D’Amato met around a huge conference room table. On the table was a novel that had been written by Whitley Strieber called “Majestic.” The book is about the Roswell crash and the MJ-12 control group that was established to deal with the extraterrestrial appearance on earth. D’Amato said, “I want to tell you something. This (pointing to the book) is not fiction.”
Marcel asked, “When are you going to tell the public?”
D’Amato replied talking about the MJ-12 control group that oversees the UFO cover-up, “If it were up to me I’d have done it yesterday, but it is not up to me. I am just here to investigate the cost of keeping it secret. In reality there is a black government. They have control of the debris. They answer to no one and they are not elected. They have unlimited money to spend. They are the ones who have control over it.”
The second piece of new evidence came from a very unlikely source – Dr. John Alexander. John was a Colonel in the US Army, and had been interested in the UFO mystery since a young boy in 1947. He also had done work on “esoteric projects, specifically in the intelligence community with psychokinesis.”
Alexander wrote a book on his UFO investigations called “UFOs: Myths, Conspiracies, and Realities.” In the book Alexander pointed out that although UFOs are real, they are of no interest to the American government, and therefore there is no cover-up of the facts by American officials.
Alexander is also well known in the UFO community for hosting a Top Secret – Special Access series of meetings in the mid-1980s to look at the UFO problem for a possible new government look at the problem. The group was called the Advance Theoretical Physics Group and interestingly had exactly the same “Top Secret- Restricted Classification” as the MJ-12 document.
In a June 15, 2013 interview with radio show host Nancy Du Tetre Alexander, Alexander suddenly announced that the MJ-12 group had existed.[ii] This sudden disclosure was strange. That is because the MJ-12 controversy is central to the whole government cover-up theory believed by most in the UFO community. Yet Alexander did not talk about the MJ-12 idea in his book which had as its basic premise that there is no government control group dealing with the UFO mystery.
This is the transcript of the interaction;
Alexander: I think that there actually was a group and they were created something known as COG – continuity of government – and it was to prevent nuclear decapitation of the United States. It was really super super sensitive.
Nancy Du Tetre: Well let me ask you this. Does MJ-12 as far as you know exist today?
Alexander: I don’t think so. I had someone whisper to me that it had existed. I didn’t think it had existed at all, but when I looked into it and asked if the names were correct, and they said yes and that should tell me what I need to know to figure it out. That’s how we came up with this particular occupation because most of them were into nuclear warfare. That was one common thread of all the people on the list, and much more so certainly than with UFOs.[iii]
Even though Alexander’s personal opinion of what the group might have been differs from the UFOP control group interpretation, the significance of what Alexander said cannot be emphasized enough. MJ-12 existed and the names on the UFO document that appeared on a film in the mailbox of Jamie Shandera in 1984 were correct.
"The blackened skin and vertebrae are a good giveaway, I wish the pictures were a bit bigger so I could wager a guess at what kind it was, but it's hard to make out!" wrote user Unidan, who is regarded as an expert in biology by members of the social news community.

POSSIBLE CATTLE ABDUCTIONS IN FAIRFAX VERMONT DECEMBER 4, 2014 ………….. FAIRFAX VERMONT
I am in my mid-thirties and live with my wife in Franklin County, Vermont on a hill over looking a small valley of trees and cow pastures, which rests between the towns of Milton, Saint Albans and Cambridge. I am a well educated, rational biomedical laboratory technician. My mother, who lives in a neighboring county, is a PhD research scientist who I would consider to be extremely rational and never prone to hysteria or exaggeration.cto hysteria or exaggeration. My wife is also well educated, and very practical – even stubbornly skeptical – about strange phenomenon and other events which have no bearing on her life. Two years ago, my mother was walking with a friend, who is a radar operator for the Air National Guard. The path they were walking is very near the downtown area in our largest city, about 25 miles south from my house. She tells me the sky that evening was dark, except for the many stars which were at that moment unobscured by clouds. She felt something odd and was compelled to look directly overhead. She and her friend then saw a very large, black, triangular craft with faint orangish lights, one at each corner of the craft. She said that the craft was so dark and so quiet as to seem as if it was absorbing light and sound. They watched as the craft moved slowly from north to south and finally disappeared from view after a few minutes. Apparently, my mother’s friend was at least somewhat familiar with similar objects, but provided no information. My mother told me about this experience immediately after it happened because our close relationship and mutual respect permit this. This week, I had my own amazing experience, and my wife shared it with me. On the evening December 4th, 2014 at approximately 9 p.m., I was exercising in our basement and noticed a very bright light which I could see through our basement window. I ran up our first flight of stairs, opened the front door and stood on the porch. Before noticing any detail I felt an intense sense of dread. I looked up toward the sky at a 45 degree angle, directly away from our house, toward Vermont’s highest mountain peak. In the near distance, perhaps a half mile from where I was standing, I saw an extremely bright object, pulsating red and blue lights, bouncing around slightly. I stood for perhaps 30 seconds or a minute watching this object, feeling transfixed but also very fearful. I recalled in that moment some of the stories of abductees who were paralyzed prior to their close encounters, and screamed at myself mentally to turn around and go back inside. I walked quickly inside, locked the door and ran up the next flight of stairs to our living room, where my wife was sitting and watching television. I turned off all the lights and then the TV and told her, “you need to see this.” I brought her to our picture window, oriented precisely eastward in the direction of the object, and asked, “WHAT IS THAT?” She leaned toward the window, squinted her eyes and her mouth dropped open. At the same moment I noticed another similar bright object to the north, but this object became a secondary consideration to us because it was partially obscured by tree branches near our window and appeared to be farther away and at a higher altitude. I asked her to stand there and continue to watch the object for unusual flight patterns if it began to change position. As she did this, I ran to my office to retrieve my Celestron Model #21035 travel telescope. When I returned, I noticed a light on the ground directly below the UFO, in a location that I know to be a patch of cow pasture void of any structures. I quickly found the UFO in my telescope lens. What I saw shocked me down to my core. The object was disc-shaped, bright, colorful, pulsating and bouncing. The pulsating red and blue lights appeared to come from within the craft, passing out through its walls. I then found the light on the ground below the craft and saw that it was cylindrical, orangish-yellow and was illuminating a white angular object which sat closer to my house on the grass. After two or three minutes, I decided that I would not see enough detail in the light and turned the telescope back toward the UFO. When my wife again examined the craft, she asked, “what is that other thing…in the air, closer to us, in the bottom right corner of the view?” I looked and saw the corner of another, mostly black and camouflaged object, perhaps two or three hundred yards closer to us. I watched this object for ten minutes or longer and noticed that it was slowly rocking around and up and down. On several occasions, I could clearly see that the bright, pulsating disc was casting enough light on the angular craft to illuminate two corners of what appeared to be a triangular black craft. My wife paced around the house, communicating irritation with me for looking at these objects with such interest at first, but eventually, after at least a full hour, parked herself on a chair near me saying, “I feel weird…I’m scared…I don’t like this.” At some point, I noticed that the light on the ground had vanished. Then, I noticed that the pulsating disc was calmer – more stationary and less bright. The red light, especially, was mostly or entirely gone and the craft appeared to settle into a lower-energy state. The triangular craft remained in the same position for another thirty minutes. Immediately prior to going to bed, I saw that the disc and triangle had both changed positions. The disc was now higher, perhaps directly above the triangle, which was now oriented with a single corner pointing downward. Suddenly, I saw the full form of the triangle, which was hovering with its underside pointing directly at my window. I saw one faint, circular orange light at each of three corners. The next day, I bumped into a resident who lives on the road directly opposite my house from the previous evening’s activity. This individual informed me that she had see an object that matched my description of the bright object at 9 p.m. on December 3rd and 4th. I knew this meant that the object might return soon, and watched from my window throughout the night of December 5th. Two bright, pulsating objects appeared shortly before midnight, at least one half mile farther from my house than they had been the previous night. I watched for over an hour as they appeared to follow a grid pattern slightly above the tree tops near a river. A quick scan of the internet reveals that Vermont is currently a hotspot for these phenomena. Many people have reported similar objects in my area; MANY more have likely seen them and remained silent. I would be willing to speak with you by phone, but I must be careful not to allow my name to be associated with my report as it is presented to the public.
NOTE :The above image is a rendering. This case is under investigation by Chief Investigator Ken Pfeifer of MUFON Vermont.
(N.Morgan) The UFO phenomenon has been the focus of intense scrutiny and conspiracy. Is this US government involved in a huge cover up to hide the fact that there is alien life abroad in the universe? Or are the UFOs merely military crafts whose true intent was to be war vehicles? 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.
Culturally, UFOs are associated with claims of visitation by extraterrestrial life or government-related conspiracy theories, and have become popular subjects in fiction. While UFOs are often later identified, sometimes identification may not be possible owing to the usually low quality of evidence related to UFO sightings (generally anecdotal evidence and eyewitness accounts).
Stories of fantastical celestial apparitions have been told since antiquity, but 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. In its initial definition, the USAF 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.” Accordingly, the term was initially restricted to those fraction of cases which remained unidentified after investigation, as the USAF was interested in 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., 1951 Flying Saucer Working Party, 1953 CIA Robertson Panel, USAF Project Blue Book, Condon Committee).
Oud mysterie voorspelt ineenstorting in september 2015 ( Video)
Oud mysterie voorspelt ineenstorting in september 2015 ( Video)
Het jaar 2015 wordt een bijzonder jaar. Eigenlijk hoef je daar geen helderziende voor te zijn om dat te kunnen voorspellen.
Alle tekenen wijzen erop dat in deze 12 maanden vele zaken tot een climax zullen leiden.
Als dat ook nog wordt ondersteund door een meer dan 3.000 jaar oud mysterie dan is dat bijzonder te noemen.
Een mysterie dat terugvoert naar de tijd van Mozes en wat shemitah heet. Het is een Hebreeuwse uitdrukking en het betekent neerstorten, neervallen, inelkaar storten.
Het wordt in het Nederlands wel het sabbatjaar genoemd en is gerelateerd aan de sabbat, de zevende dag, de rustdag. De shemitah is het zevende jaar, het rustjaar waarbij een stuk land onbebouwd dient te blijven.
Iemand die veel onderzoek heeft gedaan naar de shemitah is de Joodse rabbi Jonathan Cahn. Hij heeft er ook een boek over geschreven dat in no time een bestseller werd, The Harbinger.
In het onderstaande interview hoor je Cahn vertellen over de akelige nauwkeurigheid waarmee de shemitah werkt.
De dag dat het shemitah jaar eindigt, is het moment dat schulden worden kwijtgescholden, kortom dat er wordt begonnen met een schone lei. Oorspronkelijk bedoeld als een zegen, het schoonvegen van de lei, maar omdat het volk Israël zich tegen God heeft gekeerd, veranderd in een vloek.
Hoe iedere ineenstorting van de beurs terug te voeren is naar de shemitah, tot op de dag, het uur en de seconde nauwkeurig. Niet alleen de ineenstorting van de beurs, maar ook de opkomst en ondergang van bepaalde volkeren.
De shemitah komt dus iedere zeven jaar terug en we bevinden ons op dit moment in het jaar van de shemitah. Het is begonnen op 25 september 2014 en formeel eindigt deze op 13 september 2015.
Een lezer (dank!) schrijft het volgende:
Ik heb net een nieuwsbericht gelezen waar ik een vreemd onderbuik gevoel bij kreeg. Op teletekst is te lezen dat de paus op 24 september 2015 het Amerikaanse congres zal toespreken. Het merkwaardige zit hem in de datum en dat dit tevens de eerste keer is dat een paus dit doet.
Het is natuurlijk wel een merkwaardige datum voor de paus om voor de eerste keer het Amerikaanse Congres toe te spreken. Alhoewel het shemitah jaar officieel eindigt op 13 september dit jaar is de 24ste precies de laatste dag van een vol jaar sinds het begin van de shemitah.
Dit is ook tevens de dag van de laatste bloedmaan. Volgens velen zal er op 25 september 2015 het main event gaan plaatsvinden waar we allemaal voor vrezen of waar we op voorbereid zijn. Deze datum heeft alles met de vierde bloedmaan en de laatste dag van de shemitah te maken.
Een beurskrach, een atoombom op New York, er zijn al vele scenario's gegeven op het internet, allemaal gebaseerd op de laatste dag van de shemitah. Uitgerekend deze dag zal de paus in New York het congres toespreken, wie weet wat hem daar gaat overkomen en wat voor effect dit op de wereld zal hebben.
Zal deze paus dan echt de laatste zijn en zal hij bewust of onbewust worden geofferd om het main event te laten starten. Al met al vind ik dit waanzinnig toevallig dat precies deze dag hier voor is uitgekozen, als je precies begrijpt waar de shemitah voor staat dan is dit mind blowing.
Hieronder volgt het interessante verhaal zoals dat wordt verteld door Jonathan Cahn. In de video is de interviewer nogal storend vinden wij omdat hij Cahn alsmaar in de rede valt en het nodig vindt een stuk persoonlijke religie te adverteren.
Afgezien daarvan, een fascinerend verhaal van Jonathan Cahn.
Op 2 februari rond één uur ’s nachts vond er een merkwaardige gebeurtenis plaats in de plaats Escabana in het noorden van de Amerikaanse staat Michigan.
Na een explosie in de lokale energiecentrale verscheen er een vreemde lichtstraal vanuit de hemel.
Volgens het gemeentebestuur zorgde een explosie in de plaatselijke energiecentrale ervoor dat veel mensen zonder stroom kwamen te zitten.
De schade was dermate groot dat het volgens de gemeente dagen zou duren voordat de normale stroomvoorziening weer op gang zou gekomen.
Er zijn daar vreemde dingen gebeurd.
Op een gegeven moment, na de explosie, een geweldige lichtstraal vanuit de hemel die rechtstreeks lijkt te verdwijnen in de geëxplodeerde centrale.
In de onderstaande video zie je minutenlang vreemde luchten die door de autoriteiten worden verklaard als een naderende trein. Dat is uiteraard totale onzin.
Een explosie in een centrale zorgt niet voor een enorme lichtstraal naar de hemel zoals te zien is op bovenstaande afbeelding.
New video of a triangle-shaped craft flying across the night sky above San Antonio in Texas. This happened on 17th January 2015.
Witness report: TRIANGLE U.F.O CRAFT Billy Martinez San Antonio 1-17-15…craft occupying air space in San Antonio airport without doubt!!! This is definitely in a no fly zone, craft had ‘NO RUNNING LIGHTS’ and was completely black. Triangle craft was about 10 to maybe 15′ in height. The consistent steady lights are consistent with known ET CRAFT. Lights do not alternate from color. They are ‘ULTRAVIOLET’ which is why to the naked eye they reflected no light. Only once recorded are you able to see lights. ET craft made absolutely ‘zero noise’!!! I am in direct contact with them!!!
"I saw a large glowing orange craft over a park near a house we rented in Portland, OR. It was huge and had the appearance of a molten metal disk. It appeared hot (like molten metal would be) but didn't radiate any heat that I could tell. The craft sat in the air unmoving for some time but left very abrubtly moving quickly almost straight up. If the craft had terrestrial qualities it's size and dimensions would have killed me when it left, leaving a crater larger than the park from the suction it would have caused. There was no perceptible effect on my surroundings as it almost instantly went from dwarfing the park to a speck of light in the night sky." - Witness
The Bible talks about an angel (in) a wheel within a wheel. With eyes all around it. Wherever the eyes went that's where the spirit of God went. I'm not trying to claim the craft is biblical in origin or nature, but what I saw somewhat fits the description. Just thought I'd mention it." - Witness
Date of Incident: June 1971 Date Reported: 3/2/2006 9:57:18 AM Sighting Time: 8:00 PM Day/Night: Dusk/Evening No. of Witnesses: 1 Duration: Seemed like 10 minutes or so.
Appearance / Description of Object(s):
It was glowing orange like molten metal, disk shaped like 2 quarters stacked on top of each other but with no seam on the side. The sides of the craft had semi-spherical rivets in two rows that followed the edge of the craft. The rivets also glowed like molten metal but had a darker swirling quality to each one, like oil moved about slowly in water. The bottom of the craft had an irregular box shape in the middle with 4 tubes coming off of it to what appeared to be 4 rotors. The rotors spun but I could not distinguish an opening in the craft. The craft appeared solid and very heavy. If it had been made of molten metal it would have weighed thousands of tons. It's size and shape seemed to defy physics entirely. I could not imagine what forces could keep such a bulky craft suspended in the sky.
Size of Object(s):
From my perspect the craft occupied at least the space of my arms outstretched at my sides and bent upwards at 90 degrees at my elbows. It almost filled my entire field of vision but left some space around the sides where I could see the night sky. I would say it was about 200 yards across the object. The edge of the craft was perhaps 2 stories tall, maybe more. I can't tell for sure though because I don't know how far it was from me, perhaps a hundred feet or so.
Description of Area / Surroundings:
Suburban. Over a park in a Portland. There were houses all along the West and South of the park (which was roughly a square) and a school to the East of the park. There were horse pastures and a small woods to the North of the park.
Full Description & Details:
I was very young and my mom needed to head to a PTA meeting for my school which was across a park to the East of where we lived. It was sometime in summer because the nights were still long. I asked my mom if I could go with her as far as the park and would play on the swings, etc. until she got back. Shortly after she departed I saw a large circular craft above the park. It filled the night sky. I believe it to be roughly the size of the park (if not bigger) which had a baseball diamond in the NE and a playground in the SE. Most of the rest of the park was grassy with trees in the SW. Anyway, the object was huge, glowing orange, with the appearance of swirling molten metal. It was circular and disk-shaped, not spherical. Picture 2 quarters stacked on top of each other with no seams on their edge. The side of the craft had many half-spherical protrusions which looked to me like rivets but were more likely windows or some sort of sensory aparatus. The craft appeared unimaginably heavy and wasn't what I would call aerodynamic. I was puzzled about it's appearance and looked at it as long as I could. I was still standing there looking at the night sky when my mom returned. I was startled that she had returned so soon and I asked her if her meeting had been cancelled. She said no, it went on for about and hour and she mentioned that she had gotten to speak with my teachers and had had some cookies or other sort of refreshments. She asked what I had been doing the whole time and I told her that I had been playing a bit on the swings, which is what I had done prior to my seeing the craft in the sky. Her leaving for the meeting and returning seemed only like a matter of minutes to me. I cannot account for roughly an hour during my sighting of the craft in the sky. I have seen other instances of what I would consider UFO's, stars stair-stepping in the sky then moving off rapidly at an angle, but nothing as detailed or as large as this. I heard reports of a burning weather balloon the following day on the news on the radio but they said that nothing of the balloon was found. What I saw could not have been mistaken by anyone for a weather balloon or anything else. I did remember the report of the balloon though because I associate it with my experience from the previous night.
Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?
Absolutely not. All of the qualities of it seemed contrary to what I would expect from an earthly craft. The only thing that would make it seem to function like anything I've seen before were the rotors. And I couldn't even imagine how those could support such a bulky craft without adversly affecting my surroundings. Not a breeze was stirred up by the craft even as large as it appeared to be.
Witness Background:
Network Administrator for a company of about 120 employees. Some college but no accreditation except an MCSE. I have worked in mostly computer-related positions since college.
Views on UFOs, before and after sighting:
I would say I knew little if anything about UFOs prior to my sighting. I had probably seen a few tv shows or movies about martians and outer space but nothing like what I saw.
Other Comments:
Outside of the sighting itself the thing that puzzles me most is the duration. It appeared to only last minutes and when my mom returned from her meeting I was startled. I didn't expect her to return so soon and could only think she had come back immediately. When she said she had attended the whole meeting and then came back I couldn't figure how a few minutes on the swings plus a few minutes of watching the object would take up more than an hour. I have since then heard about abductions but I don't recall anything but standing there until she returned.

UFO mania: Are these Alien Lightships?
UFO mania: Are these Alien Lightships
Remarkable photo taken during the Gemini flights. The photo shows two remarkable objects, what appears to be UFOs. Are these alien lightships? Or is it just a a classic burn. (The film sticks to itself sometimes during the development process and causes the emulsion to "burn" at the point the two layers are touching.)
Inwoners van de Russische stad Saratov keken raar op toen ze tot de ontdekking kwamen dat de grond bedekt was met een laag oranje sneeuw. Via de sociale media lieten mensen weten dat de gekleurde sneeuw in vrijwel alle delen van de stad was te zien.
De kleur varieerde van lichtgeel tot dieporanje. Sommige sociale-mediagebruikers waren bang dat de sneeuw radioactief was of schadelijke chemicaliën zou bevatten. Anderen dachten dat er iets aan hun ogen mankeerde.
Een aantal inwoners nam contact op met persbureau Svobodnye Novosti, dat een expert aan de tand voelde over het fenomeen. Weerman Mikhail Boltukhin zei dat oranje sneeuw heel normaal is en ongevaarlijk is voor zowel mens als dier. Hij zei dat de oranje sneeuw het gevolg is van een cycloon die vanuit de Westelijke Sahara zand richting Rusland heeft geblazen.
“De lucht die uit het westen komt bevat kleine zanddeeltjes die de vallende sneeuw een oranje kleur geven,” zei Boltukhin. “Soortgelijke fenomenen zijn recentelijk waargenomen in verschillende delen van het land, met name op de Krim.”

Wetenschappers: op honderden miljarden planeten in de Melkweg kunnen levensvormen bestaan
Australische wetenschappers hebben berekend dat er alleen al in onze Melkweg honderden miljarden planeten zijn zoals de aarde, waarop levensvormen kunnen bestaan. Die conclusie baseren zij op een aangepaste versie van een vuistregel die ruim 200 jaar geleden voor planeten van ons zonnestelsel werd opgesteld.
De onderzoekers hebben de vuistregel, de wet van Titius-Bode, toegepast op 151 zonnestelsels met minstens drie planeten die zijn ontdekt met de Amerikaanse Kepler-ruimtetelescoop. Ze voorspellen dat in al die stelsels nog 228 planeten kunnen worden ontdekt. Daarnaast zouden in elk zonnestelsel gemiddeld twee planeten binnen de bewoonbare zone van hun ster te vinden zijn.
Met de Kepler-telescoop zijn veel exoplaneten gevonden die relatief dicht bij hun sterren staan. Het oppervlak van deze planeten is daardoor vaak te heet om leven te kunnen bevatten. Maar uit de nieuwe analyse blijkt dat rond elke ster in de Melkweg ook planeten draaien die in een minder hete zone liggen en waar dus, net als op de aarde, wel levensvormen kunnen bestaan.
“De ingrediënten voor leven zijn overvloedig in ons zonnestelsel en nu weten we dat ook bewoonbare omgevingen in overvloed voorkomen,” zei hoofdonderzoeker Charley Lineweaver van de Australian National University.
Documentary About UFO Sightings Throughout NWT Sets To Finish This Spring
Documentary About UFO Sightings Throughout NWT Sets To Finish This Spring
Canadian filmmaker Raymond Yakeleya has not seen alien UFO but believes in extraterrestrial existence. Born in Tulita, a hamlet in the Sahtu Region of the Northwest Territories, Yakeleya plans to make a documentary regarding UFO sightings in the North.
N.W.T. has been flooded with reports of UFO sightings and encounters over the years, including one earlier in January 2015 in Fort Smith.
Yakeleya believes there’s a UFO connection and evidence in Dene legend. The legend tells the story on extraterrestrial visitations where the chief of their kind requested a Dene wife, which did happen.
He says that he often wondered about the legend, asking himself how it is possible that they have alien beings in their legends. Yakeleya firmly believes that their people don’t lie and don’t make any stories like that.
Yakeleya states that he can’t discount many stories from elders who reveal that they have seen UFOs on the area even though he has never experienced alien encounters.
He plans to call his film “UFOs, Aliens and First Nations.” Yakeleya thinks that it’s important to talk about alien sightings and abductions to understand these phenomena.
According to Yakeleya, he and other children in residential schools were hesitant to talk about their culture’s legends. Now, he wants to change it and hopes that people open up about their experiences.
Yakeleya hopes to finish his film this spring and currently working on finding drawings and some photos. He is filming in Albert at the moment and plans to visit the N.W.T. later this month.
Coyne Helicopter Incident - Mansfield, Ohio, United States - October 18, 1973 - UFO Evidence
Coyne Helicopter Incident
Mansfield, Ohio, United States
October 18, 1973
UFO Evidence
The Coyne case (or "Army helicopter incident") stands out as, perhaps the most credible (in the "high strangeness" category) of the 1973 wave. An Army Reserve helicopter crew of four men encountered a gray, metallic-looking, cigar-shaped object, with unusual lights and maneuvers, as they were airborne between Columbus and Cleveland, Ohio.

The Coyne case (or "Army helicopter incident") stands out as, perhaps the most credible (in the "high strangeness" category) of the 1973 wave. An Army Reserve helicopter crew of four men encountered a gray, metallic-looking, cigar-shaped object, with unusual lights and maneuvers, as they were airborne between Columbus and Cleveland, Ohio. The crew won the NATIONAL ENQUIRER Blue Ribbon Panel's $ 5,000 award for "the most scientifically valuable report of 1973."
On October 18, 1973, at approximately 10:30 PM a UH-1H helicopter of the United States Army Reserve left Port Columbus, Ohio, for its home base of Cleveland Hopkins airport, ninety-six nautical miles to the north-northeast. In command, in the right-front seat, was Captain Lawrence J. Coyne, thirty-six, with nineteen years of flying experience. At the controls, in the left-front seat, sat First Lieutenant Arrigo Jezzi, twenty-six, a chemical engineer. Behind Jezzi sat Sergeant John Healey, thirty-five, a Cleveland policeman who was the flight medic, and Coyne was the Crew Chief, Sergeant Robert Yanacsek, twenty-three, a computer technician. The helicopter was cruising at 2,500 feet above sea level at an indicated airspeed of ninety knots, above mixed hills, woods, and rolling farmland, averaging 1,200 elevation. The night was totally clear, calm, and starry. The last quarter moon was just rising.
About ten miles south of Mansfield, Healey noticed a single red light off to the west, flying south. It seemed brighter than a standard aircraft port-wing light, but it was not considered relevant traffic, and he does not recall mentioning it. An estimated two minutes later, at approximately 11:02 PM, Yanacsek noted a single red light on the south-east horizon. He assumed it was either a radio-tower beacon or an aircraft port-wing light - most likely an aircraft, since it was not flashing - and he watched it "for a long time, a minute to ninety seconds" before calling it to Coyne's attention. Coyne, smoking, relaxing, glanced over, noted the light, assumed it was distant traffic, and told told Yanacsek casually to "keep an eye on it."
After an estimated additional thirty seconds, Yanacsek announced that the light had turned toward the helicopter and appeared to be on a converging flight path. Coyne verified Yanacsek's assessment, grabbed the controls from Jezzi, and put the UH-1H into a powered descent of approximately 500 feet per minute. Almost simultaneously, Coyne established radio contact with Mansfield control tower, ten miles to the northwest. Coyne thought the flight was an Air National Guard F-100 from Mansfield. After an initial acknowledgment ("This is Mansfield Tower, go ahead Army 1-5-triple-4"), radio contact failed. Jezzi then attempted transmission on both UHF and VHF frequencies without success. Although the channel and keying tones were both heard, there was no response from Mansfield; and a subsequent check by Coyne revealed that Mansfield had no tape of even the initial transmission, the the last F-100 had landed at 10:47 P.M.
The red light continued its radial bearing and increased greatly in intensity. Coyne increased his rate of descent to 2,000 feet per minute and his airspeed to 100 knots. The last altitude he noted was 1,700 feet. Just as a collision appeared imminent, the unknown light halted in its westward course and assumed a hovering relationship above and in front of the helicopter. "It wasn't cruising, it was stopped. For maybe ten to twelve seconds - just stopped," Yanacsek reported. Coyne, Healey, and Yanacsek agree that a cigar-shaped, slightly domed object substended an angle of nearly the width of the front windshield. A featureless, gray, metallic-looking structure was precisely delineated against the background stars. Yanacsek reported "a suggestion of windows" along the top dome section. The red light emanated from the bow, a white light became visible at a slightly indented stern, and then, from aft/below, a green 'pyramid shaped" beam equated to a directional spotlight became visible. The green beam passed upward over the helicopter nose, swung up through the windshield, continued upward and entered the tinted upper window panels. At that point (and not before), the cockpit was enveloped in green light. Jezzi reported only a bright white light, comparable to the leading light of a small aircraft, visible through the top "greenhouse' panels of the windshield. After the estimated ten seconds of "hovering," the object began to accelerate off to the west, now with only the white "tail" light visible. The white light maintained its intensity even as its distance appeared to increase, and finally (according to Coyne and Healey), it appeared to execute a decisive 45 degree turn to the right, head out toward Lake Erie, and then "snap out" over the horizon. Healey reported that he watched the object moving westward "for a couple of minutes." Jezzi said it moved faster than the 250-knot limit for aircraft below 10,000 feet, but not as fast as the 600-knot approach speed reported by the others. There was no noise from the object or turbulence during the encounter, except for one "bump" as the object moved away to the west. After the object had broken off its hovering relationship, Jezzi and Coyne noted that the magnetic compass disk was rotating approximately four times per minute and that the altimeter read approximately 3,500 feet; a 1,000 foot-per-minute climb was in progress. Coyne insists that the collective was still bottomed from his evasive descent. Since the collective could not be lowered further, he had no alternative but to lift it, whatever the results, and after a few seconds of gingerly maneuvering controls (during which the helicopter reached nearly 3,800 feet), positive control was achieved. By that time the white light had already moved into the Mansfield area. Coyne had been subliminally aware of the climb; the others not at all, yet they had all been acutely aware of the g-forces of the dive. The helicopter was brought back to the flight plan altitude of 2,500 feet, radio contact was achieved with Canton/Akron, the night proceeded uneventfully to Cleveland.
Apparent ground witnesses to this event have been found by William E. Jones and Warren Nicholson, independent UFO researchers from Columbus, Ohio.
Mrs. E. C. and four adolescents were driving south from Mansfield to their rural home on October 18, 1973, at approximately 11 P.M., when they were attracted to a single steady bright red light. flying south "at medium altitude." They watched for perhaps half a minute until it disappeared to the south over the trees.
Approximately five minutes later, now driving east on Route 430, approaching the Charles Mill Reservoir, the family became aware of two bright lights - red and green - descending rapidly toward them from the southeast. When first seen, the angular distance between the lights was about 2 degrees; the red light appeared to be leading. Mrs. C. pulled over to the shoulder of the deserted road and kept the engine and car lights running. The lights - bigger than point sources - slowed and moved as a unit to the right of the car and the family became aware of yet another group of lights - some of these flashing - and "a beating sound, a lot of racket" approaching from the southwest. Two of the children (cousins, both age thirteen) jumped from the car and observed both a helicopter and the object, which they described as "like a blimp," "as big as a school bus," "sort of pear shaped." The object at that point subtended an angle equivalent to "a 100-mm cigarette box held at arm's length." The object assumed a hovering position over the helicopter, an estimated 500 feet back from the road and 500 feet above the trees. (The ground elevation at the site is almost exactly 1,000 feet above sea level; thus at the noted 1,700-foot altimeter reading, the helicopter was actually about 650 feet above the trees.) The object's green light then flared up. "It was like rays coming down," the witnesses said. The helicopter, the trees, the road, the car - everything turned green." The kids scrambled with fright back into the car and Mrs. C. proceeded apace. Their estimated total time outside the car was "about a minute." Neither ground witnesses nor aircrew are sure at what point the two aircraft disengaged; the ground witnesses reported that the unidentified object crossed to the north side of the road behind the car, appeared to move eastward for a few seconds, then reversed its direction and climbed toward the northwest towards Mansfield - a flight path which correlates perfectly the motion of the object established through analysis of the aircrew's report.
Any theory of the object's being a meteor (UFO skeptic Philip Klass maintains that the object was a "fireball of the Orionid meteor shower") can readily be rejected on the basis of: (1) the duration of the event (an estimated 300 seconds); (2) the marked deceleration and hard-angle maneuver of the object at closest approach; (3) the precisely defined shape of the object; and (4) the horizon-to-horizon flight path.
The possibility of a high-performance aircraft likewise is untenable when one examines the positions and colors of the lights with respect to the flight path of the object. To have presented the reported configurations, and been in accordance with FAA regulations, an aircraft would have had to be flying sideways, either standing on its tail, tail-to to the helicopter, or upside-down head-on. Other arguments against aircraft hypothesis are: (1) a fixed-wing aircraft moving across the line of sight would appear to move most rapidly when passing directly in front of the observer; (2) a fixed-wing aircraft would not have the capability of decelerating from high velocity to "hover" within a few seconds time; (3) a helicopter would have the capability of hovering, but would not be capable of the high forward speeds reported; (4) a conventional aircraft, if within 500 to 1,000 feet, would have produced noise audible inside the helicopter; (5) the FAA requires either a strobe or a rotating beacon on either the top or bottom of the fuselage, (6) FAA requires that no aircraft shall fly below 10,000 feet msl at speeds above 250 knots; (7) some of the features of a conventional aircraft would have been seen, e.g., wings, engine pods, windows, empennage, numbers, logo.
Coyne reported that the Magnaflux/Zygio method of nondestructive testing was applied to the rotors the following day and that there was no indication that they had been subjected to fatigue-producing stresses. Comparable times/distances/directions support the possibility that the red light first seen by the C. family, Healey's red light, and the object of the encounter were all one and the same. Yanacsek's red light on the eastern horizon was under continuous observation and was unequivocally the object of the encounter.
The case has maintained its high "strangeness-credibility" rating after extended investigation and analysis.

UFO mania: Fisherman Records UFO Unexpected Encounter
UFO mania: Fisherman Records UFO Unexpected Encounter
This UFO was recorded In a remote area of Transnistria (also called Trans-Dniestr or Transdniestria) which is a breakaway state located mostly on a strip of land between the River Dniester and the eastern Moldovan border with Ukraine. The object was recorded in November, 2014 in a place where the witnesses say they love to fish. The UFO appears to be a light orb object and it was recorded by a fisherman while heading back home from a fishing trip. The video was being recorded on a phone, they reported that the smartphone battery dies when the video stops. At times you can see the UFO seemingly hovering, and at the end of the video, the UFO appears to speed up as it flies away from the motorboat.

Le nombre estimé de planètes "habitables" dans notre galaxie devient vertigineux
Le nombre estimé de planètes "habitables" dans notre galaxie devient vertigineux
Dans une nouvelle publication basée sur les dernières données récoltées par le télescope Kepler, des chercheurs estiment qu'elles se compteraient en "centaines de milliards". C'est bien plus que les dernière estimations.
En juin 2014, une équipe internationale de chercheurs estimait, à partir d'un "indice de complexité biologique" qu'il existait dans notre galaxie environ 100 millions de planète potentiellement habitables.
Les nouveaux calculs tablent désormais sur un chiffre 1000 fois plus élevé que cette précédente estimation, puisque les chercheurs de l'Australian National University (ANU) estiment désormais que les planètes "habitables" de notre galaxie pourrait désormais se compter en centaines de milliards.
Pour obtenir cet ordre de grandeur, les chercheurs se basent sur plusieurs éléments. Le premier est le nombre toujours plus important de planètes au delà de notre système solaire, en orbite autour d'autres étoiles. Le télescope spatial a en effet fêté en janvier 2015 la découverte de sa millième exoplanète. Ils constatent ensuite que les observations du télescope spatial Kepler comportent un biais puisque le télescope est particulièrement performant lorsqu'il s'agit de repérer les planètes relativement proches de leur étoile, mais l'est moins pour débusquer celles, plus nombreuses, qui gravitent un peu plus loin. Et notamment celles situées dans la zone "habitable" de leur étoile, c'est à dire une zone dans laquelle la quantité d'énergie reçue par la planète permet à l'eau d'exister sous forme liquide. De ce fait, l'équipe considère que le nombre d'exoplanètes estimé dans notre galaxie est bien plus important que ce que supposaient les études précédentes.
Enfin, ils basent une partie de leurs travaux sur la "loi de Titus-Bode". Une loi empirique uniquement basée sur l'observation et qui permet de prédire approximativement à quelle distance du soleil se calent chacune des orbites des planètes qui composent un système solaire. Une loi qui ne correspond à aucune théorie et qui ne peut être démontrée mathématiquement, mais qui a tout de même une valeur prédictive. Par exemple, elle a permis de déduire la période d'Uranus, ainsi que pour découvrir la planète naine Cérès, rappellent les chercheurs.
Dans leurs travaux publiés dans la revue Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, ces derniers expliquent être partis d'un échantillon de systèmes planétaires découverts par Kepler, contenant au moins 3 planètes (soit 151 systèmes). Les mesures réalisées au sein de cet échantillon ont été extrapolées grâce à la loi de Titus-Bode de manière prédire la période de 228 planètes supplémentaires et de déduire, de manière statistique, qu'il se trouve, autour de chaque étoile, en moyenne deux planètes situées dans la zone habitable.
Dans notre système solaire, la Terre est située dans une telle zone et reçoit environ 1000 Watts par mètre carré d'énergie rayonnée par le soleil. Si l'on s'approche du soleil et que l'on dépasse Vénus, la quantité d'énergie reçue est trop importante et l'eau se vaporise. Si on s'en éloigne et que l'on dépasse Mars, alors l'eau n'existe plus que sous forme de glace. Or, seule l'eau liquide permet à la vie d'exister sous la forme que nous lui connaissons.
Ces conditions physico-chimiques sont un préalable indispensable à l'émergence de la vie. Toutefois, ce n'est pas parce qu'une planète répond à ces critères qu'elle abrite pour autant une vie extraterrestre.
"L'Univers n'est pas forcément rempli d'alien avec une intelligence semblable à la nôtre, capable de construire des radiotélescopes ou des vaisseaux spatiaux analyse Charley Lineweaver, l'un des auteurs de la publication. Si tel était le cas, nous aurions sans doute eu vent de leur existence. Il est possible qu'il y ait d'autres goulets d'étranglement à l'émergence de la vie, à moins que ces civilisations intelligentes n'aient évolué puis disparu" commente-t-il dans un article d'analyse.
I was having a backwards look at UFOs to when they were known as flying saucers. My time machine stopped at 1950 and this is what was being reported.
What was described as a flying saucer was seen by about 50 persons at Dayton, Ohio, yesterday [March 8 1950].
The strange glittering object was visible to the entire personnel of the Vandalia Airport. A National Guard fighter pilot chased the thing up to 37,000 feet where it disappeared.
Gilley Stevens, chief meteorologist at the field said the ‘saucer’ must have flown at least 30,000 feet high because he saw it disappear behind some ice clouds which usually form at that altitude.
He reported the object seemed to move erratically at first but that it later remained motionless for as much as 15 minutes at a time.

“Oakland Cal: A ‘disc shaped object’ roaring at an estimated speed of 1000 to 1500 miles an hour made five ‘passes near Hamilton Air Force base early today [June 21 1950]
Three Air Force non-commissioned officers said the ‘flying saucer’ had a shooting flame and a ‘roar like thunder’ dived near a beacon just north of the field.
Corp. Roger G Pryor, a control tower operator at the field, said he saw a blue flame shooting out as the saucer flashed by from the south-west and headed north-east. “I thought it was a falling star. But it didn’t fall. It just kept going,” said Pryor.

Los Angeles: William Grant, 26, former marine corps aerial photographer, reported seeing a brilliant lighted circular object in the sky last midnight.
He estimated the object was 50 feet in circumference and when first seen was about 1,000 feet overhead. Its speed at first was about 100 miles an hour, then increased to about 500 miles an hour before disappearing behind the Hollywood Hills.
“It was in sight about 45 seconds,” said Grant. “It left no exhaust trail and made no sound.”
His story was confirmed by Gilbert MacGill, president of a firm conducting research with helicopters.
Grant said he had about 900 hours in the air during the war as a photographer and gunner. “I’ve always been skeptical about flying saucers,” he said, “until now.”

Those non-existent ‘flying saucers’ are flitting about district skies again.
No less than five discs have been reported during the past month bringing the total to eight for Western Pennsylvania. Several saucers were seen by groups of people. others were reported by reliable observers.
So far the ‘little men’ inside have not crawled out.

Not too much detail from the Pittsburg Press above, but they did include a map of recent [1950] sightings as seen below:
This interesting UFO video of a metallic sphere-like object was filmed over San Antonio in Texas on 27th January 2015.
Witness report: This day was clear no clouds in sight..I notice this bright glowing light traveling at high speeds..So i grabbed my camcorder for a closer observation..When zooming in a Metallic Orb can be observed to be traveling in a Southeastern direction..It appear to reflect the suns rays with a shadow underneath..When zooming out you can clearly see as it travel at high seeds.It seemed to be under some sort of controlled. .You can see it as it travels Horizontal and in a Constant Speed….I did not hear any noise coming from this U.F.O…In my opinion this is a UNIDENTIFIED FLYING OBJECT clearly no weather balloon/aircraft or satellite.
MASSIVE UFO CRAFT SEEN HOVERING OVER WARTON’S AERODROME OCTOBER 14, 2015 …….. PRESTON ENGLAND
I woke about 3 am on the 14th October 2014 as I normally did. As I was making a cup of tea I noticed, out of the corner of my eyes, a flash in the sky. Thinking I was going to witness a lightening storm I turned off the lights and sat watching the dark sky. A few minutes later there was a bright flash and I saw clearly a massive craft hovering over Warton Aerodrome. The craft was lit up with two rows of lights one row above the other. The image it has left in my mind is like that of a big cruise ship lit up in the dark. It was massive! I was stunned and terrified. I grabbed my mobile phone, aimed it at the craft and pressed record. The flash on my camera flashed and reflected off my windows and blinded me for a few seconds. I dropped to the floor convinced that who ever was in the craft will have seen my camera flashing in the window. When I looked again the craft had disappeared. I pulled myself together and gave myself a good talking to and tried to convince myself I had imagined it. I took my tablet that also has a camera and I aimed it in the direction that I had seen the craft and pressed record.
Leaving the camera running I sat in the dark and waited. I witnessed a jet coming from east to west and I watched as it approached the area I had seen the craft. The jet just stopped in the sky and hovered and as it did the craft appeared like a flash and was all lit up with two rows of lights. The jet hovered in front of this craft and at that point I ran to get my son to have a look. By the time I got him out of bed to look both the craft and the plane had gone. My tablet camera picked up the massive flash in the sky and also it picked up a spot light coming over the top of my window before withdrawing. My camera has sound and there was no sound from whatever came over the top of my building. I know what I saw and it has left me feeling afraid. I want to know why it was there and am I at any risk because of trying to film them. I also know there is not much point in being told I imagined it all because the whole situation lasted about an hour and half and I know what I saw.
A group attempting to contact extraterrestrials using “coherent thought and meditation practices” has captured dramatic lights over the ocean on video (seen above). They believe the event was extraterrestrial contact, other UFO researchers believe the objects are merely flares.
According to the video’s description, the sighting took place at Vero Beach in Florida on January 27, 2015 between 9:10 and 9:15 pm. In the video, you can see several people are present when a bright orange light appears below the clouds offshore. Soon after, a second object can be seen. After a few minutes, the lights fade out.

The group had several cameras ready to film any UFOs they may spot. In fact, the group believes they can call in extraterrestrial spacecraft using what they call the CE-5 Protocol.
The alien spotting event was held by the Center for the Study of Extraterrestrial Intelligence (CSETI), which was founded by Dr. Steven Greer, a retired medical doctor. They hold what they call “Ambassador Training” several times a year throughout the country. As the website describes, at these events “Dr. Greer will provide in-depth training in meditation and Remote Viewing and explain how the Science of Consciousness and ET communication, travel and even manufacturing are connected.”
The training lasts a week and costs $2500. This may or may not include the price of the hotel rooms for the week.
In the video, once the UFOs are spotted, you can hear the excitement in the participants’ voices. Greer tells everyone to thank the aliens for coming. It is assumed that he means by sending them thoughts. He then instructs the group to “Open your heart chakra and send them the beauty of humanity.”
“You connect with your palms out, like this, with your third eye and your heart making like a tetrahedron radiating our pureness and love towards them, ” Greer continued.
Although the lights in the video are dramatic, the UFO researchers I contacted for analysis of the video felt that the lights were obviously flares.
Marc Dantonio, the chief photo analyst for the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) said this:
“The facts are this. You see one appear in another way they appear is from right to left. The way they go out is from right to left as expected, with the first one to light up being the first one to go out. Not only that but you can actually see as you scrub through the video that they drift to the right and sink lower in the sky. It is at that point where the first flare that lit up then goes out as expected. This is absolutely consistent with aerial parachute flares.”

I also contacted Bruce Maccabee, an optical physicist who used to work for the U.S. Navy at the Naval Surface Warfare Center in Virginia. He also was of the opinion that the lights in the video are flares.
Ricky Butterfass, a long time CSETI member who was there to witness the UFOs in Florida first hand says he disagrees. He argues that the winds were high. He says, “If the objects were flares they would not have maintained the relative same altitude and tandem position for the time period.”
“There was not any smoke observed or parachutes. We have seen flares before doing field work,” says Butterfass. Butterfass also says they did not see any aircraft dropping the flares.
“My CE-5 team buddy is former Navy and was aircraft maintenance on an aircraft carrier during the gulf wars. He did not think they were flares,” says Butterfass.
Furthermore, Butterfass says he and other witnesses saw disk shaped objects several times during their trip. On one occasion one kept pace with their rental car.

Butterfass says this isn’t the first time they made contact. “We also know the ET race that operate these type craft. We call them Arcturans and they have confirmed that assumption. Although other ET races work with them on board some of these and larger craft,” says Butterfass.
Greer has posted on their website a photo of what he believes to be an extraterrestrial that visited one of their training sessions in the area of Joshua Tree, California in November of 2009.
Butterfass says they have had several visitations by extraterrestrials while they are in their meditation circle. However, humans cannot see them. He says they sometimes can see the aliens’ auras, but mostly have to communicate with them using their “field electronics.”
As for the Vero Beach video, most of the UFO researchers I have contacted agree that it is definitely flares that CSETI caught on video. I contacted the Coast Guard who said they did not have any operations in the area involving flares. I also reached out to the Navy who said they would get back to me, but as of the posting of this story, I have not heard anything from them. The Florida MUFON chapter says their investigation is ongoing, and they will release their conclusions when their investigation is complete.
Here is a video of some military flares I filmed in Arizona for comparison…
Er vindt op 5 mei 2015 een conferentie plaats in Mexico waar geheimen zullen worden onthuld waardoor de geschiedenisboeken kunnen worden herschreven.
In het Nationaal Auditorium in Mexico City zal ten overstaan van 10.000 bezoekers bewijs worden gepresenteerd dat er in Roswell wel degelijk buitenaardsen zijn neergestort.
Misschien geen toeval dat Mexico is uitgekozen als het land waar in mei dit jaar bewijsmateriaal zal worden gepresenteerd wat de loop van de geschiedenis zullen veranderen.
Op 5 mei 2015 zullen in Nationaal Auditorium ten overstaan van zo’n 10.000 bezoekers een aantal wereldberoemde onderzoekers zoals Thomas J. Carey en Donald R. Schmitt een presentatie aan het publiek geven die wordt genoemd: Eén van de meest belangrijke zaken in de afgelopen 1.000 jaar.
Naast de genoemde onderzoekers zal ook NASA astronaut Edgar Mitchell aanwezig zijn. Hij was de 6e man die op de maan heeft gelopen en heeft altijd gezegd dat hij gelooft dat wij niet alleen zijn in dit universum.
Er zal op die dag ook een persconferentie worden gehouden voor zowel de nationale als de internationale pers.
De zaak die zij zullen presenteren en die de loop van de geschiedenis zal veranderen, heeft alles te maken met Roswell en buitenaardsen.
Er zijn natuurlijk al talloze opnames verschenen van buitenaardse wezens die zouden zijn gefotografeerd of zelfs op film gezet na de crash bij Roswell. Het grote probleem bij al die opnames is altijd geweest dat meestal niemand weet waar ze vandaan komen, door wie ze zijn gemaakt en of ze wel echt zijn.
Nu zijn er wat men noemt de Kodachrome dia’s.
Enkele jaren geleden werd er ergens in Arizona een zolder opgeruimd en daarbij kwam een kist tevoorschijn, vol met Kodachrome dia’s. De kist behoorde ooit toe aan een kinderloos echtpaar uit Sedona in de Amerikaanse staat Arizona.
Hier volgt in het kort het verhaal:
Talloze onderzoeken hebben uitgewezen dat de Kodachrome dia’s echt zijn.
Het volgende is wat Thomas Carey erover heeft te zeggen:
En Donald Schmitt:
Zoals je hebt kunnen horen wordt 5 mei 2015 een dag waarop de geschiedenisboeken voorgoed kunnen worden herschreven.
De dag dat er wordt aangetoond dat er buitenaardsen aanwezig zijn op onze planeet en dat wij definitief niet alleen zijn.
British Rail has been hit with the issue of trains not running on time. Perhaps, a simple form of technology and system could solve this problem. But it seems that British Rail has a hard time to get the job done. One might wonder, how did it ever consider it would be able to initiate space travel?
In 1970s, British Rail’s aspiration was to build a patented flying saucer. With a patent granted in March 1973, Charles Osmond Frederick designed a craft that utilises nuclear fusion for its energy source. Charles planned to stabilise the vehicle with laser beams that are generated in pulses.
Charles developed magnetised subatomic particles to give lift and thrust to the flying saucer. Passengers would get protection from radiation with a thick metal shield in the hull.
Based on the law of physics, the idea would be quite difficult to put into a reality. Also, the patent lapsed in 1976 with just a slim likelihood the craft be ever getting made.
Was the idea worth patenting? YouTube famous personality Tom Scott says any ideas that are original can be worth patenting even if they are the most insane ones.
This year will mark the fourth year for a UFO festival in Presidio, Texas. But 2015 is also the year that festival organizers are shifting focus away from UFOs.

Presidio’s Border Zone International UFO Festival began in 2012. As the name suggests, the event was filled with UFO related presentations from researchers including Stanton Friedman, Noe Torres, and Gilberto Rivera.
Subsequent years continued with UFO-centric programming, featuring lectures by UFO conference regulars like Travis Walton and Nick Pope.

But now, festival organizers have decided it’s time to get away from the UFO topic.
Presidio Municipal Development District executive director Brad Newton told local media outlet Big Bend Sentinel that he “hopes to orient the festival toward a more science-based event, and has even been in touch with representatives at NASA, who, according to Newton, have expressed willingness to send an astronaut for the October festival.”
Newton apparently sees a stigma attached to the term “UFO.” He points to an issue with NASA, stating, “[T]hey won’t send you an astronaut if you have UFO in your name.”
Although former NASA astrobiologist Richard Hoover recently spoke at the International UFO Congress, former NASA astronaut Story Musgrave recently spoke at the Mutual UFO Network’s symposium, and former NASA astronaut Edgar Mitchell will be presenting a lecture (via Skype) at the upcoming Contact in the Desert event, Newton seems to think that scientists and astronauts are deterred by the term “UFO.”
Organizers have even gone so far as to remove “UFO” from the event’s title, which is now the Texas Border Zone Dark Skies Festival. According to Big Bend Sentinel, this refers to “the Dark Skies Program at Big Bend Ranch State Park, which strives to reduce light pollution and promote stargazing within the state parks.”

“We want to concentrate more on the music, more on the science and astronomy,” Newton says, clarifying the new focus of the event.
The embarrassing topic of UFOs might not be completely gone from the festival though. Newton claims, “The paranormal will always be part of the mystery of the Big Bend and we don’t want to forget that, but it’s not the main focus.”
The reworked Texas Border Zone Dark Skies Festival takes place October 30-31.
The Hyde Park, NY, witness recalls looking out a bedroom window during the summer of 1976. Over the trees at the far side of the house was a bright white, perfect pyramid craft. Pictured: Hyde Park, NY. (Credit: Google)
A New York witness at Hyde Park recalled a UFO incident from the summer of 1976 when a pyramid-shaped object hovered over her home, according to testimony in Case 62997 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The witness recalls getting out of bed and moving toward a window in her home when the object was first seen in the summer of 1976 during the late night or very early morning hours.
“Over the trees at the far side of the house was a bright white, perfect pyramid craft,” the witness stated. “My first thought was it was a two-man ship.”
The witness became afraid and hid in a closet. Pictured: Hyde Park, NY. (Credit: Google)
The witness described the object.
“The main body of it was bright white and it spun rapidly, but it flew straight. On one point was a blue light; on one tip a green light and on the other tip was white light. Part of me remembers a red light somewhere.”
The witnesses’ room was on one end of the home and the object appeared to be near the opposite end of the home.
“I remember touching my eyes to make sure I was awake. It was maybe 20 to 25 feet off of the ground and maybe10 feet away from the side of the house slowly flying parallel to the second floor of the house. There was no sound.”
The witness became afraid thinking that the object could also see her.
“At first I was amazed and then I thought – if I can see it, they can see me. Then I had an overwhelming feeling of dread and fear. I ran to the closet and hid.”
But hiding in the closet did not block the witness from the object.
“I remember seeing the bright light under the door and then I’m in my mom’s room crying and she’s telling me to go back to sleep. My Dad walked me back to my room and my friend who was sleeping over said she saw something in the neighbor’s driveway. Next thing I know I’m coming home from school the next day. Then when my Dad got home, he told my Mom that she should have believed me because in the paper was an article that said the town about 30 minutes away saw the same thing I saw.”
The following day, the witnesses’ father saw an article in a local newspaper that described a similar object being seen in a nearby town. Pictured: Hyde Park, NY. (Credit: Google)
The newspaper article convinced her parents.
“After that she always looked at the sky as she wanted to see them too. I was 13 when that happened. I’m 51 now and I can’t talk about it without crying even after all these years. I don’t know what happened to make me cry when I think about it still. I do have a lot of dreams about ships in the sky and I see the tall shining, blonde, beautiful people. But I had to tell someone about my sighting even though it was a long time ago. I’m still a little scared that the ‘men in black’ will come to the door.”
Hyde Park is a town located in the western portion of Dutchess County, New York, population 21,571.
No images or videos were included with the MUFON report, which was filed on January 31, 2015. Please remember that most UFO sightings can be explained as something natural or man-made. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.
Every so often, a UFO sighting occurs that is more interesting for what it tells us about our own government than for what it tells us about the UFO itself. The UFO event over Chicago’s O’Hare Airport in 2006 in one such example. The short encounter was rather unremarkable, as UFO sightings go, but the reaction of the airline and the FAA was anything but ordinary, suggesting some type of cover-up between the implicated authorities. What’s more, the sighting reminds us that even nearly 40 years after the US government disavowed all responsibility for investigating UFOs, there are still many parties secretly involved in keeping UFO activity out of the public eye.
DURING a recent radio interview, the presenter asked me why, if UFOs exist, no one has produced any definitive evidence to prove it.
I assured him that there is a veritable mountain of proof – for those who have eyes to see.
As I’ve mentioned before in this column, UFO researchers and political lobbyists have an annual convention explicitly dedicated to getting the evidence out there.
The first thing that even diehard sceptics have to acknowledge is that there is an awful lot of eyewitness testimony to be had, and any rational person who takes the time to look at it would have to acknowledge that either the thousands of witnesses are deluded or lying, or we are indeed being visited by non-human intelligences from elsewhere.

Ah, but that’s not “scientific evidence”, say some. “Eyewitness testimony is unreliable.”
Well, I’d agree that eyewitness testimony might be unreliable within the field of science, but that doesn’t make it unreliable per se.
If 1,000 independent witnesses tell me they’ve seen a donkey running down the middle of King Street, odd though that may be, I’d be pretty tempted to believe them.
Why? Because the idea so many people would independently decide to tell such a fib without any apparent motivation is far more difficult to swallow than the idea of a donkey running down the street.
“It’s not just lights in the sky these people are seeing”, said Ricardo Reyes.
“They’ve seen ET hardware, top-secret documentation and, in some cases, biological material which is alien in nature.”
And that’s the point. If a witness sees a bright light in the sky it could be any number of things other than an alien spacecraft.
However, if they should see a classified memo from the Vice-President of the USA stating that UFOs really exist, then there is simply no wiggle-room.
Either the witness is lying, the document is fake, or the document is real. It’s that simple.
Now it’s true that there are faked UFO documents out there, and I once had the pleasure of personally exposing one.
But some are real and have been stamped as authentic by world-renowned document analysts.
In 2013, there was a Citizens Hearing held in the USA on the UFO subject.
Respected lawyers, scientists, journalists, and others all testified under oath that they had seen incontrovertible proof that some UFOs were indeed alien spacecraft and that contact with their occupants was made in 1947.
The organisers have a database of hundreds of people – astronauts, astronomers and physicists amongst them – who are prepared to disclose what they know as long as they are given immunity from prosecution.
Copies of this database, along with copies of restricted documents signed by very high-ranking individuals, have now been sent to every Member of Congress in the USA.
The objective is to force a full Congressional Hearing on the UFO enigma.
The Citizens Hearing itself was steered by a committee which contained US politicians of real calibre, and there can be no doubt that the real truth about the UFO phenomenon is being withheld from the public.
As former Director of the CIA, Roscoe H Hillenkoetter, noted, “Behind the scenes, high-ranking Air Force officers are soberly concerned about UFOs.
“But through official secrecy and ridicule, many citizens are led to believe the unknown flying objects are nonsense.”
It’s ironic that while sceptics are bleating about the need for “scientific proof”, hundreds of the scientists they revere so much claim to have the proof they seek but are being prevented from presenting it due to draconian laws concerning national security.
So, the sceptics want to see the evidence made public and so do the campaigners.
Unlikely bedfellows they may be, but the sceptics should be supporting the campaigners in their efforts as they purportedly both want the same thing; the truth.
Behind the official denials, a growing number of people around the globe, including a former Canadian Defence Minister, are now saying, “Enough is enough; it’s time we told the people the truth”.
Next week we’ll take a closer look at what they have to say.

Hundreds of billions of Earth-like planets may host alien life
Hundreds of billions of Earth-like planets may host alien life
A team of scientists estimates that there may be hundreds of billions of Earth-like planets in the Milky Way galaxy that can support alien life.
New studies and new projections are frequently published by researchers because incredible space tools, like NASA’s Kepler space telescope, are providing scientists with more data than has ever been available. For example, in 2012, astronomers analyzed data from the European Southern Observatory’s HARPS (High Accuracy Radial velocity Planet Searcher) planet-hunting telescope, and concluded that there could be tens of billions of Earth-like planets in our galaxy. And, in 2014, a research team evaluated the list of confirmed exoplanets, leading to the conclusion that the Milky Way is home to one hundred million planets that could support complex alien life.

For this recent study, scientists applied an idea known as the Titius-Bode hypothesis to the exoplanets detected by Kepler. Science World Report explains, “The Titius-Bode relation is a hypothesis that the bodies in some orbital systems, including the sun’s, orbit at semi-major axes in a function of planetary sequence.”
Kepler’s observation method makes it biased towards detecting planets that are very close to their stars. So scientists applied the 200-year-old Titius-Bode idea to Kepler’s data. “We used the Titius-Bode relation and Kepler data to predict the positions of planets that Kepler is unable to see,” says Associate Professor Charley Lineweaver from The Australian National University.
The results lead researchers to conclude that “the standard star has about two planets in the so-called goldilocks zone, the distance from the star where liquid water, crucial for life, can exist.”

Lineweaver states, “The ingredients for life are plentiful, and we now know that habitable environments are plentiful.”
But he speculates, “However, the universe is not teeming with aliens with human-like intelligence that can build radio telescopes and space ships. Otherwise we would have seen or heard from them. It could be that there is some other bottleneck for the emergence of life that we haven’t worked out yet. Or intelligent civilisations evolve, but then self-destruct.”
Five years of data from the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope paint a picture of the universe in gamma-rays. Scientists with Fermi think the flux of gamma-rays can be explained by known sources.

The steady glow of high-energy gamma-ray light that spreads across the cosmos has puzzled astronomers for decades. One team of researchers thinks it has the best explanation yet for the source of this strange emission.
After observing the universe with NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope for six years, scientists with the mission say the majority of the gamma-ray glow they have seen can be explained by objects already known to science. If there are any as-yet unknown sources out there, their contribution to the glow would be very small, scientists say.
"We have a very plausible story. We're not 100 percent confident that this is the final answer, but it really constrains what other exotic possibilities could be out there," said Keith Bechtol, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Chicago and a member of the Fermi collaboration who worked on the analysis. [Fermi's Gamma-Ray Universe in Images (Gallery)]
Fermi: a gamma-ray gumshoe
NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope snaps pictures of the entire observable universe — from end to end — in gamma-rays, which are some of the highest-energy photons in nature.
While that wide view of the universe is useful, it can make it a challenge to pinpoint the exact sources of these gamma-rays. Instead, Fermi sees a diffuse glow coming from the universe. This glow is technically known as the extragalactic gamma ray background, or the EGB. Previous gamma-ray telescopes have also seen this light that fills the background of the cosmos.
"We've known about this gamma-ray background since the late 1960s," Bechtol said. "It's a very-long-standing mystery, and each generation of gamma-ray telescopes has given us a little more information."
With help from other telescopes, the Fermi telescope can identify where some of this high-energy background light is coming from. There are very energetic galaxies called blazars, for example, that give off a high flux of gamma-rays. The Energetic Gamma Ray Experiment Telescope (EGRET), which preceded Fermi, broke records by detecting some 300 gamma-ray sources. So far, the Fermi telescope has identified more than 3,000 sources.
"We think every galaxy is producing gamma-rays at some level," Bechtol said. "The vast majority are too faint to be seen individually and instead their collective emission is blurred together." (Many galaxies radiate high levels of optical light, and can be seen by telescopes like the Hubble. But their gamma-ray emission is too faint to be detected.)
"It's frustrating not to know the answer, but the fact that there's a mystery — I think that's what attracted a lot of us to this problem," Bechtol said. "At least for me, I like being on the edge of that discovery space where there's still blank parts on the map."
The Fermi telescope can't see most of the objects that radiate gamma-ray light, so the scientists have to try to estimate how many gamma-ray objects are out there.
In an analysis first made public in September 2014, members of the Fermi collaboration took the known sources of gamma-rays and added them together with models that predicted the frequency and location of unseen sources. The scientists calculated how much gamma-ray light both the detected and modeled sources would produce together.
This calculated output of gamma rays matches closely with the actual gamma ray-background that Fermi observes — the entire EGB.
The final estimate shows that roughly 50 percent of the gamma-ray background comes from extremely energetic galaxies known as blazars. Ten to 30 percent of the gamma ray background emanates from star-forming galaxies like the Milky Way, which can collectively contain many smaller gamma-ray sources, like supernovas. Another 20 percent is from radio galaxies, which are blazars, but are pointed away from the Earth, and thus cannot be seen as easily by Fermi.
"There could definitely be new gamma-ray sources out there," Bechtol said. "It's just that their total contribution would have to be relatively small."
It's also possible that dark matter — the mysterious material that makes up 80 percent of all the matter in the universe — is producing gamma-rays, and the Fermi results may help scientists figure out what kind of particle (or particles) make up dark matter.
Two large uncertainties remain in Fermi's estimation. First, it is difficult to measure the gamma-ray glow of the universe to begin with, and Bechtol said he and his collaborators put a lot of time into improving that measurement.
Second, the scientists are making estimates about objects they cannot directly observe, most of which are located beyond the Milky Way galaxy (or extragalactic).
"When [scientists] first discovered the gamma-ray background, it was largely a mystery as to what created it," Bechtol said. "And now it seems like everything is fitting together very well. Right now, the simplest explanation involving known astrophysical sources seems to be doing just fine."
The Fermi Large Area Telescope has spotted highly energetic ejections of gamma-rays throughout the universe. Scientists with Fermi believe known gamma-ray sources can account for the overall gamma-ray flux in the universe, but they say there is still room for surprises.

Light from back in time
Fermi's success at decoding the gamma-ray background had depended largely on its increased sensitivity to gamma-rays and its detection of more gamma-ray sources than previous telescopes. In addition, Fermi scientists have worked to gain a better understanding of how gamma-ray emissions have changed throughout the history of the universe. This is valuable because when Fermi looks at sources of gamma-rays, it is actually looking into the past.
Light travels at a finite speed — the light from the sun takes 8 minutes to reach Earth, which means humans actually see the sun as it was 8 minutes ago. By the same logic, objects that are billions of light-years away from Earth are seen by Fermi as they were billions of years ago.
"We're literally measuring the light output over the history of the universe, and for me, that's what makes this exciting," Bechtol said. "We're seeing all different time periods in the universe at the same time. All of the light from all those different periods is added together to form the gamma ray background."
Having a historical perspective makes a big difference for Fermi because the cosmic output of gamma-rays has likely been different at various times throughout the last 13 billion years. For example, the universe has seen periods when the population of blazars exploded and other times when the population growth slowed down. They also need to understand precisely how far away those blazars are, in order to accurately measure how long ago these bright sources burned.
The Fermi scientists have solved a long-standing puzzle, but Bechtol said there are still other mysteries in the gamma-ray universe. There are other gamma-ray telescopes that can detect even higher-energy gamma-rays than Fermi, and it's possible that in those energy ranges, there are sources of gamma-rays that scientists don't know about yet.
"We think this [result] is converging on the final answer, but history has shown us that, sometimes, there's more to the story," Bechtol said. "I certainly think that, as we start to look at higher energies […], there will start to be some surprises."
Venus would not be a pleasant place for people to live in the solar system. The planet's active volcanoes and rucraway greenhouse effect would make it a difficult place to survive.

Between its desiccated, red-orange landscape and surface temperatures hot enough to melt lead, Venus is our solar system's analog to hell. Setting up a livable base on the planet is a feat far beyond our technological capabilities right now, but here's what life would be like if we could actually live on Venus.
Venus is often thought of as Earth's twin sister because the size and composition of the two planets are similar. So it should come as no surprise that NASA, the Soviet space program, the European Space Agency (ESA) and others have sent numerous spacecraft to explore the planet second closest to the sun — more than 40 in all since the 1960s. [Living on Venus: Why It Would Be Tough]
In the early 1990s, NASA's Venus orbiter spacecraft, Magellan, used radar signals to map 98 percent of the planet (we can't see Venus's surface directly because of its thick cloud cover). After that, Venus was largely forgotten about until 2005, when the ESA launched its Venus Express spacecraft to study the planet's atmosphere, said Venus Express project scientist Håkan Svedhem.
The surface of Venus is quite different from other planets in the solar system," Svedhem told Space.com. Radar images from Magellan showed that the Venusian surface is decorated with mountains; craters; thousands of volcanoes, some of which are much larger than Earth's; lava-borne canals up to 3,000 miles (5,000 km) in length; ringlike structures called coronae, or crowns; and odd, deformed terrain called tesserae.
The planet's defining surface characteristic, however, is its flat, smooth plains, which cover about two-thirds of Venus — these plains would, arguably, be the best places to set up a home base to live.
Walking around on Venus wouldn't be a pleasant experience. The Venusian surface is completely dry because the planet suffers from a runaway greenhouse gas effect. That is, its thick atmosphere is full of heat-trapping carbon dioxide that keeps the planet's surface temperatures at about 870 degrees Fahrenheit (465 degrees Celsius).
Venus' gravity is almost 91 percent of Earth's, so you could jump a little higher and objects would feel a bit lighter on Venus, compared with Earth. "You probably wouldn't notice the difference in gravity so much, but what you would notice is the dense atmosphere," Svedhem said. "The air is so thick that if try to move your arm quickly, you would feel resistance. It would almost be like being in water."
Likewise, it'd be hard to miss the change in atmospheric pressure. At sea level on Earth, the air presses down on our bodies at 14.5 pounds per square inch, or 1 bar; the surface pressure on Venus is 92 bar. To experience that pressure on Earth, you'd have to travel more than 3,000 feet (914 m) down into the ocean. [Photos of Venus: The Planet Next Door]
Venus takes 225 Earth days to revolve around the sun and 243 Earth days to rotate on its axis. "But the time from one midday to the next is 117 Earth days, because Venus rotates backwards," Svedhem said. This retrograde rotation also means that the sun would rise in the west and set in the east.
Though we see a blue sky on Earth, the sky on Venus would always appear reddish orange because of the way the carbon dioxide molecules scatter the sun's light. You wouldn't see the sun as a distinct point in this sky, but rather a hazy, yellowish tint behind the dense clouds, Svedhem said, adding that the nighttime sky would be a starless black.
High in Venus's atmosphere, winds travel up to 249 mph (400 km/h) — faster than tornado and hurricane winds on Earth. But on the planet's surface, the wind only travels at about 2 mph (3 km/h). And though the planet does have lightning, the blinding flashes never reach the surface. Additionally, the blistering heat prevents any rainstorms from touching ground on Venus.
And unlike Earth, Venus likely doesn't have earthquakes because it lacks tectonic plate activity that releases heat from its interior. Instead, what may happen is that the heat builds to a critical point over millions of years, and then suddenly gets released from some kind of mechanism, such as large-scale volcanic activity that remolds the surface of the planet.
But if you wanted to complain to your friends back home about how lava destroyed your backyard, don't expect an immediate response — your message would take a few minutes to reach Earth when the two planets are at their shortest distance apart. And when Venus is on the other side of the sun from Earth, it could take almost 15 minutes for your message to get home.

Life Might Thrive 12 Miles Beneath Earth's Surface
Life Might Thrive 12 Miles Beneath Earth's Surface

Life teems all over our planet's exterior and even down into the lightless oceanic depths. But just how far underground might life be able to hack it?
New research offers evidence of bacteria living as deep as 12 miles (19 kilometers) underground — quite possibly the deepest life has ever been glimpsed. Learning biology's terrestrial limits, though important in its own right, is critical to understanding life's rise on other planets with far less forgiving climates and surface conditionsthan the Earth's.
"Most studies report microbial life in the crust to no deeper than a few kilometers — just a mile or so," said Philippa Stoddard, an undergraduate in Yale University's geology and geophysics department. "Assuming our data are correct, this greatly expands our understanding of the extent of the Earth's biosphere." [Extreme Life on Earth: 8 Bizarre Creatures]
Stoddard presented the research at the Geological Society of America's annual meeting in Vancouver, British Columbia in October.
Acting on clues from nearly two-decades-old field work, Stoddard and her Yale colleagues examined rocks on Lopez Island in northwestern Washington. An outcrop there containing veins of the mineral aragonite, dredged up to the surface scores of millions of years ago by geological processes, was found to contain weirdly high levels of a lightweight version of the element carbon. This carbon signature is usually produced by microbes that excrete the carbon-containing compound methane.
The likeliest explanation is that lifeforms, once buried deep in the Earth's crust, altered the ancient aragonite's carbon signature. These microbes were so far underground they would have had to withstand extreme temperatures and pressures — a dramatic demonstration of life's robustness that bodes well for an ability to take hold in unearthly environments.
"I think that results like ours are very encouraging for the possibility of life on other planets," said Stoddard. "The more we learn about extreme environments on our own planet, the more we realize how resilient life is."
Almost forgotten
The startling discovery initially cropped up in the 1990s. Fieldwork by J.G. Feehan for his 1997 doctoral dissertation with Yale professor Mark T. Brandon, who now is Stoddard's academic advisor, had identified the aragonite's very light carbon signatures.
Feehan suggested at the time that the signatures were the fingerprint of super-deep life. His focus, however, was on the geophysics of the rocks hosting the aragonite veins. So the subterranean life hypothesis sat, un-pursued, ever since.
Stoddard and Brandon, along with Yale professor Danny Rye, decided to pick up the thread. They recently returned to the scene in Washington State.
"Professor Brandon and I went back to the outcrop on Lopez Island where Feehan had done his isotopic measurements to see if we could corroborate his data and explore the suggestion of deep life more thoroughly," explained Stoddard. [The 7 Harshest Environments on Earth]

Telltale abundances
Specifically, as Feehan had done, Stoddard looked at the ratios of two carbon isotopes, or versions of an element containing different numbers of neutrons. The isotopes in question are carbon-12 and carbon-13, or C-12 and C-13. The former makes up the vast majority of carbon on the Earth. It has six protons and six neutrons in its atomic nucleus. C-13 has an extra, seventh neutron.
Life alters the typical ratio of C-12 to C-13 because most biochemical processes—eating, growth, and so on — divide isotopes into lighter and heavier camps. The way this works is actually pretty simple. Lower-numbered isotopes, possessing less mass, are lighter than higher-numbered isotopes. Lighter objects, like an empty cardboard box, are of course easier to move than a loaded safe of the same size. Similarly, lighter isotopes have an easier time getting about in the push-and-pull of biological matter at Lilliputian scales, driven by energy and molecular interactions.
"Because carbon-12 is the lighter isotope, it is more thermodynamically mobile than carbon-13," said Stoddard. "It can actually move faster."
Methane, a common waste product of microbes, contains a single carbon atom plus four hydrogen atoms. When microbes consume carbon-rich molecules and excrete methane, the waste methane containing the lighter, faster isotope C-12 returns to the environment more readily than C-13-laden methane. The typical ratio of one carbon isotope to the other ends up skewed as a result in rocks, for example, as in the case of the Lopez Island aragonite.
"The methane produced by microbes has much less of the heavy isotope than the standard ratio," said Stoddard.
Some non-biological processes can segregate carbon isotopes as well, but they tend not to do as efficiently, noted Stoddard.
Mars Could Have Supported Life, NASA Finds | Video
The land down under
The San Juan Islands — including Lopez Island, site of the intriguing aragonite—only became islands as such about 100 million years ago, back in the dinosaurs' heyday. Before then, these sea-bottom rocks, located near what is now Vancouver Island, had subductedunder a neighboring chunk of rock, a geological process that often happens where tectonic plates meet at ocean and continental boundaries.
Buried in the bowels of the Earth, pressures and heat metamorphosed the dark basalt rock, creating thin, whitish veins of aragonite. Over time, microbes on the scene then slowly altered the carbon signatures in this aragonite through the methodical excretion of methane gas in this pitch-black, hot, squeezed environment.
Subsurface water trapped with the microbes could have further enabled their subsistence in such a place. The temperatures would likely have exceed 250 degrees Fahrenheit (121 degrees Celsius) — the known cutoff for even the hardiest of life to still function (in hot springs).
How would these microbes have survived? Counterintuitively, the exceedingly high pressure in a miles-deep habitat — in the neighborhood of 5,000 times the pressure exerted by Earth's atmosphere at sea level — could have helped. High pressures actually can stabilize biomolecules, such as DNA, offsetting the heat's destructive effects.
Similar scenarios could still persist today around the globe, meaning Earth's biosphere might extend many milesbelow the planet's surface.
"We've seen over the past couple decades of exploration that life can survive in an incredible diversity of ecosystems, even in deep-sea vents and glacial ice," said Stoddard. "If the deep earth was survivable for specialized microbes 100 million years ago, those same strategies could still work today." [Gallery: Creatures of Deep-Sea Vents]

Subsurface refuges
A similar approach could allow extraterrestrial life to get by under the desolate surfaces of worlds such as Mars.
Despite some of the obvious drawbacks of living deeply, microbes that have evolved to persist in such conditions would have advantages over life attempting to take hold aboveground in hostile environments.
Take Mars again as an example. Its surface gets bombarded with hundreds of times more cosmic radiationthan Earth's surface. Mars lacks a shielding magnetic field, so life developing on its surface would have substantially greater exposure to damaging radiation. Deep under the surface, that risk diminishes, along with other risks posed by, say, scalding or freezing temperatures.
"Underground environments would potentially be favorable locations for extraterrestrial life because they are more shielded from harmful surface conditions like cosmic radiation and insulated from extreme surface temperatures," said Stoddard. "It's definitely something we should keep in mind as we explore other planets."
Stoddard and colleagues intend to further study the long-buried Lopez Island rocks to glean more information about how, and if, life had indeed called them home.
"Although our isotope data is highly suggestive of deep life, there are still lots of things we don't know about this environment that could impact our conclusions," said Stoddard. "We're hoping to be able to construct a pretty detailed portrait of this deep ecosystem in the next couple of months."
Speck of Interstellar Dust Obscures Glimpse of Big Bang
Speck of Interstellar Dust Obscures Glimpse of Big Bang
This map highlights a patch of sky that was thought to show the most ancient light in the universe, but is now thought to be dust.
European Space Agency
Scientists will have to wait a while longer to find out what kicked off the Big Bang.
Last spring, a team of astronomers who go by the name of Bicep announced that they had detected ripples in space-time, or gravitational waves, reverberating from the first trillionth of a trillionth of a trillionth of a second of time — long-sought evidence that the expansion of the universe had started out with a giant whoosh called inflation.
The discovery was heralded as potentially the greatest of the new century, but after months of spirited debate, the group conceded that the result could have been caused by interstellar dust, a notion buttressed by subsequent measurements by the European Space Agency’s Planck satellite that the part of the sky Bicep examined was in fact dusty.
Now a new analysis, undertaken jointly by the Bicep group and the Planck group, has confirmed that the Bicep signal was mostly, if not all, stardust, and that there is no convincing evidence of the gravitational waves. No evidence of inflation.
Scientists are seeking clues from the Bicep2 telescope, foreground, which is based in Antarctica.

“This analysis shows that the amount of gravitational waves can probably be no more than about half the observed signal,” Clem Pryke of the University of Minnesota said Friday in an interview.
“We can’t say with any certainty whether any gravity wave signals remain,” Dr. Pryke added. “Obviously, we’re not exactly thrilled, but we are scientists and our job is to try and uncover the truth. In the scientific process, the truth will emerge.”
When the galactic dust is correctly subtracted, the scientists said, there was indeed a small excess signal — a glimmer of hope for inflation fans? — but it was too small to tell if it was because of gravitational waves or just experimental noise.
The Bicep/Planck analysis was led by Dr. Pryke, one of the four Bicep principal investigators. Brendan Crill, of the California Institute of Technology and a member of Planck, acted as a liaison between the groups. They had planned to post their paper Monday, but the data was posted early, apparently by accident. It was soon taken down, but not before it set off an outburst of Twitter messages and hasty news releases.
A paper is to be posted to the Bicep website and has been submitted to the journal Physical Review Letters.
But it will be far from the final word. A flotilla of experiments devoted to the cause are underway, studying a thin haze of microwaves, known as cosmic background radiation, left from the Big Bang, when the cosmos was about 380,000 years old. Among them is a sister experiment to Bicep called Spider, led by Bill Jones of Princeton and involving a balloon-borne telescope that just completed a trip around Antarctica, as well as Bicep’s own Keck Array and the recently installed Bicep3.
At stake is an idea that has galvanized cosmologists since Alan Guth of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology invented it in 1979. Inflation theory holds that the universe had a violent and brief surge of expansion in the earliest moments, driven by a mysterious force field that exerted negative gravity. It would explain such things as why the universe looks so uniform and where galaxies come from — quantum dents in the inflating cosmos.
Such an explosion would have left faint corkscrew swirls, known technically as B-modes, in the pattern of polarization of the microwaves. So, however, does interstellar dust.
The Bicep group — its name is an acronym for Background Imaging of Cosmic Extragalactic Polarization — is led by John M. Kovac of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics; Jamie Bock of Caltech; Dr. Pryke; and Chao-Lin Kuo of Stanford. They have deployed a series of radio telescopes at the South Pole in search of the swirl pattern.
Their second scope, Bicep2, detected a signal whose strength was in the sweet spot for some of the most popular models of inflation, leading to a sensational news conference attended by Dr. Guth and Andrei Linde, two of the founding fathers of inflation.
But that was before critics raised the dust question. Moreover, that result was contrary to a previous limit on the strength of gravitational waves obtained by the Planck satellite, which has scanned the entire microwave sky in search of the Big Bang’s secrets.
Planck observed the microwaves in nine frequencies, making it easy to distinguish dust. Bicep2 had only one frequency and lacked access to Planck’s data until last fall, when the two groups agreed to work together.
Dr. Bock of Caltech, in an interview at the end of what he called a long, stressful day, characterized the result as “no detectable signal.”
“I’m not discouraged,” he went on. “We’re going to have to have better data to get a definitive answer.”
In an email, Paul J. Steinhardt, a Princeton cosmologist who was a founder of inflation but turned against it in favor of his own theory of a cyclic bouncing universe, said the new results left cosmologists back where they were before Bicep.
But Dr. Linde noted that there was evidence in the new analysis for a gravitational wave signal, albeit at a level significantly lower than Bicep had reported. “This is what all of us realized almost a year ago, and it did not change,” he said in an email.
The earlier Planck result limiting gravitational waves, he said, had inspired a firestorm of theorizing, in which he and others produced a whole new class of theories relating not just to inflation, but to dark energy as well.
“So yes, we are very excited, and no, the theory did not become more contrived,” he said.
Max Tegmark, an M.I.T. expert on the cosmic microwaves, said, “It’s important to remember that inflation is still alive and well, and that many of the simplest models predict signals just below this new limit.” The next few years will be interesting, he said.
Michael Turner, a cosmologist at the University of Chicago, said he could appreciate the frustration of his colleagues, who have been wandering in the wilderness for nearly four decades looking for clues to the Beginning.
“Inflation is the most important idea in cosmology since the hot Big Bang,” he said. “It is our Helen of Troy, launching a thousand experiments.”

Ancient Minoan and Cretan axes - whoa!
Source: Giant Hand-Axe from Sheringham, Norfolk. An altogether remarkable and gigantic hand-axe, discovered embedded in the beach below Beeston Hill, Sheringham, by Mr. J. P. T. Burchell, has been figured and described by Mr. J. Reid Moir (Proc. Prehistoric Soc. East Anglia, 7, Pt. 3). The implement measures in its greatest length 15J inches, in greatest width 6J inches, in greatest thickness 5J inches. Its weight is approximately 14 lb. It was derived originally from the base of the Cromer Forest bed, which rests upon the surface of the chalk. The implementiferous bed runs in beneath the Forest Bed strata and the glacial deposits which form the cliff, some 200 ft. in height. The material of the axe is of flint, the colour of the flaked surfaces being jet black. The ridges and outstanding parts are abraded, and it is striated in places. There is a small area of the cortex remaining, which shows a ferruginous staining. It is a specimen of the ‘platessiform’ type, that is, rhom-boidal in section in the anterior portion and showing the remains of both the dorsal and ventral planes or platforms of the rostro-carinate stage. In two other specimens cited for purposes of comparison, coming from East and West Runton, one is clearly of the “‘platessiform’ type, but the ventral plane is partly transformed into a cutting edge, while the second is equally clearly of the ‘batiform’ type, in which the section through the anterior portion is triangular in section, the lower angles of the triangle representing the cutting edges. Hand-axes showing these characteristics have been discovered not only in England but also widely distributed over the earth’s surface. The numerous specimens discovered in the basement bed, belonging to the early Pleistocene epoch, are as highly specialised as are those of any later prehistoric period and represent a very definite and necessary stage in implemental development. No adequate explanation of the purpose which the gigantic size of the Sheringham axe could serve has been offered.
A pyramidal structure found in the Ecuadorian jungle revealed some interesting finds such as this - Source:Scattered around the area were a great many artefacts of stone and of pottery (seemingly now all stolen in recent months). Many of these objects appeared to be stone tools that could have been used either in mining or refining some kind of metal ore. Amongst these tools are some that would be extremely difficult for a normal size human being to use in any practical fashion, this has led to a strong suspicion that this is one of the legendary lost cities of the giants, well known in local Ecuadorian legends about the Amazonian area, such places generate great fear among the members of today’s jungle tribes as they are believed to be protected either by spirit guardians or by beings not of this world. Many explorers have gone into the jungles around this area and failed to return – it is certainly known to be dangerous to enter for the foolhardy traveller. Even the most expert explorers have vanished without trace in the hunt for lost cities and the supposed existence of immense treasures to be found.
Accessible PDF Format Of Project Blue Book Files Removed
Accessible PDF Format Of Project Blue Book Files Removed
The news regarding the easy access to the U.S. Air Force’s files on its investigation into the UFO phenomenon started a surge of interest in the Project Blue Book Collection. Though not new to the Internet, these files were made more accessible than they had been in the past. The Black Vault website posted a PDF format of these UFO sighting reports and cases from the late 40s to the end of the 60s, and many media outlets picked unusual cases to feature in their respective sites.
However, the document of UFO cases and sightings is no longer available at The Black Vault website. Why? Fold3, a site that features military files and a subsidiary to Ancestery.com, informed the owner of The Black Vault John Greenewald that they have a digital copyright over the documented records.
In a statement by Greenewald presented on Openminds, he says that Ancestry.com and subsidiary Fold3 forced him to remove the digital version of the Project Blue Book material. They claim that they own the copyright of all the files, even though the material has long been considered a public domain by the National Archives & Records Administration (NARA). Greenewald claims that Fold3 does not have the material in their archive, but still the Ancestry.com is claiming full ownership to the digital version.
Greenewald credited Fold3 with a direct link to their site for some files of the material. He says that he never hid Fold3 as a source even in some of his media interviews, but were cut out as it appears that no one interested in that story, and people are just interested of the new archive he made.
Greenewald reveals that he received no document coming from his web hosting provider to prove ownership of Ancestry.com or Fold3. He says that he was forced to remove the entire site based on an evidence-less claim. He took the site down in good faith hoping that a compromise could be reached.
Fold3 direct link had credit on the front page of The Black Vault website for some of the files, and Greenewald claims that it resulted in over 12 percent increase in their statistics. Greenewald also claims that his link to their site multiplied their hits by ten times in only five days based on the statistics posted on their page.
Greenewald says that he told them that his site had more information than what is cited in Fold3, but they did not care about that explanation. He adds that he even offered banner ad to advertise Fold3, aside from the direct link, with no share for him, but they also did not care about the offer.
Greenewald discloses that they offered him to become a member of their affiliate program and get a portion of sales generated, but he declined.
Our Expanding Universe: Age, History & Other Facts
Our Expanding Universe: Age, History & Other Facts
Credit : SRON
The universe was born with the Big Bang as an unimaginably hot, dense point. When the universe was just 10-34 of a second or so old — that is, a hundredth of a billionth of a trillionth of a trillionth of a second in age — it experienced an incredible burst of expansion known as inflation, in which space itself expanded faster than the speed of light. During this period, the universe doubled in size at least 90 times, going from subatomic-sized to golf-ball-sized almost instantaneously.
According to NASA, after inflation the growth of the universe continued, but at a slower rate. As space expanded, the universe cooled and matter formed. One second after the Big Bang, the universe was filled with neutrons, protons, electrons, anti-electrons, photons and neutrinos.
During the first three minutes of the universe, the light elements were born during a process known as Big Bang nucleosynthesis. Temperatures cooled from 100 nonillion (1032) Kelvin to 1 billion (109) Kelvin, and protons and neutrons collided to make deuterium, an isotope of hydrogen. Most of the deuterium combined to make helium, and trace amounts of lithium were also generated.
For the first 380,000 years or so, the universe was essentially too hot for light to shine, according to France's National Center of Space Research (Centre National d’Etudes Spatiales,or CNES). The heat of creation smashed atoms together with enough force to break them up into a dense plasma, an opaque soup of protons, neutrons and electrons that scattered light like fog.
Roughly 380,000 years after the Big Bang, matter cooled enough for atoms to form during the era of recombination, resulting in a transparent, electrically neutral gas, according to NASA. This set loose the initial flash of light created during the Big Bang, which is detectable today as cosmic microwave background radiation. However, after this point, the universe was plunged into darkness, since no stars or any other bright objects had formed yet.
About 400 million years after the Big Bang, the universe began to emerge from the cosmic dark ages during the epoch of reionization. During this time, which lasted more than a half-billion years, clumps of gas collapsed enough to form the first stars and galaxies, whose energetic ultraviolet light ionized and destroyed most of the neutral hydrogen.
Although the expansion of the universe gradually slowed down as the matter in the universe pulled on itself via gravity, about 5 or 6 billion years after the Big Bang, according to NASA, a mysterious force now called dark energy began speeding up the expansion of the universe again, a phenomenon that continues today.
The Big Bang did not occur as an explosion in the usual way one think about such things, despite one might gather from its name. The universe did not expand into space, as space did not exist before the universe, according to NASA Instead, it is better to think of the Big Bang as the simultaneous appearance of space everywhere in the universe. The universe has not expanded from any one spot since the Big Bang — rather, space itself has been stretching, and carrying matter with it.
Since the universe by its definition encompasses all of space and time as we know it, NASA says it is beyond the model of the Big Bang to say what the universe is expanding into or what gave rise to the Big Bang. Although there are models that speculate about these questions, none of them have made realistically testable predictions as of yet.
In 2014, scientists from the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics announced that they had found a faint signal in the cosmic microwave background that could be the first direct evidence of gravitational waves, themselves considered a "smoking gun" for the Big Bang. The findings were hotly debated, but the search for these mysterious ripples continues.
The globular cluster NGC 6397 contains around 400,000 stars and is located about 7,200 light years away in the southern constellation Ara. With an estimated age of 13.5 billion years, it is likely among the first objects of the Galaxy to form after the Big Bang. Credit: European Southern Observatory
The universe is currently estimated at roughly 13.8 billion years old, give or take 130 million years. In comparison, the solar system is only about 4.6 billion years old.
This estimate came from measuring the composition of matter and energy density in the universe. This allowed researchers to compute how fast the universe expanded in the past. With that knowledge, they could turn the clock back and extrapolate when the Big Bang happened. The time between then and now is the age of the universe.
Structure
Scientists think that in the earliest moments of the universe, there was no structure to it to speak of, with matter and energy distributed nearly uniformly throughout. According to NASA, the gravitational pull of small fluctuations in the density of matter back then gave rise to the vast web-like structure of stars and emptiness seen today. Dense regions pulled in more and more matter through gravity, and the more massive they became, the more matter they could pull in through gravity, forming stars, galaxiesand larger structures known as clusters, superclusters, filaments and walls, with "great walls" of thousands of galaxies reaching more than a billion light years in length. Less dense regions did not grow, evolving into area of seemingly empty space called voids.
Content
Until about 30 years ago, astronomers thought that the universe was composed almost entirely of ordinary atoms, or "baryonic matter," According to NASA. However, recently there has been ever more evidence that suggests most of the ingredients making up the universe come in forms that we cannot see.
It turns out that atoms only make up 4.6 percent of the universe. Of the remainder, 23 percent is made up of dark matter, which is likely composed of one or more species of subatomic particles that interact very weakly with ordinary matter, and 72 percent is made of dark energy, which apparently is driving the accelerating expansion of the universe.
When it comes to the atoms we are familiar with, hydrogen makes up about 75 percent, while helium makes up about 25 percent, with heavier elements making up only a tiny fraction of the universe's atoms, according to NASA.
Shape
The shape of the universe and whether or not it is finite or infinite in extent depends on the struggle between the rate of its expansion and the pull of gravity. The strength of the pull in question depends in part on the density of the matter in the universe.
If the density of the universe exceeds a specific critical value, then the universe is "closed" and "positive curved" like the surface of a sphere. This means light beams that are initially parallel will converge slowly, eventually cross and return back to their starting point, if the universe lasts long enough. If so, according to NASA, the universe is not infinite but has no end, just as the area on the surface of a sphere is not infinite but has no beginning or end to speak of. The universe will eventually stop expanding and start collapsing in on itself, the so-called "Big Crunch."
If the density of the universe is less than this critical density, then the geometry of space is "open" and "negatively curved" like the surface of a saddle. If so, the universe has no bounds, and will expand forever.
If the density of the universe exactly equals the critical density, then the geometry of the universe is "flat" with zero curvature like a sheet of paper, according to NASA. If so, the universe has no bounds and will expand forever, but the rate of expansion will gradually approach zero after an infinite amount of time. Recent measurements suggest that the universe is flat with only a 2 percent margin of error.
It is possible that the universe has a more complicated shape overall while seeming to possess a different curvature. For instance, the universe could have the shape of a torus, or doughnut.
Expanding universe
In the 1920s, astronomer Edwin Hubble discovered the universe was not static. Rather, it was expanding, a find that revealed the universe was apparently born in a Big Bang.
After that, it was long thought the gravity of matter in the universe was certain to slow the expansion of the universe. Then, in 1998, the Hubble Space Telescope's observations of very distant supernovae revealed that a long time ago, the universe was expanding more slowly than it is today. In other words, the expansion of the universe was not slowing due to gravity, but instead inexplicably was accelerating. The name for the unknown force driving this accelerating expansion is dark energy, and it remains one of the greatest mysteries in science.

UFO or secret rocket base? Unknown object in Perth's skies
UFO or secret rocket base? Unknown object in Perth's skies
Drone, missile or other? Two commercial flights have been buzzed by similar UFOs north of Perth. Photo: AP
Aviation experts and ufologists are puzzled by an object that forced a Perth-bound flight to take evasive measures last year to avoid a collision.
On March 19, a Skippers Aviation flight was forced to change it's approach to Perth airport after the crew spotted a "bright strobe light" directly in front of the aircraft.
The De Havilland DHC-8 aircraft was about 25 kilometres north-east of Perth at an altitude of around 4000 feet when the object passed within 20 metres of the flight, according to an incident report lodged with the Australian Transport Safety Authority.

UFO researcher Paul Dean told 6PR that while this object is definitely terrestrial in origin it begs further investigation. Especially given it was the second time a Skippers flight had reported an incident like this.
Speaking with Chris Ilsley, Mr Dean said another Skippers' flight reported an identical incident in nearly the same location at approximately the same time on January 4, 2013.

Someone is launching stuff, possibly missile like, from the ground. And whether it's being deliberately done at planes or not we don't know. But it tells us there is something not quite right"
Mr Dean said military sources have ruled out the possibility of a drone or a missile test from known military sites like Pearce Air Base. An assertion that is backed by the ATSA's report from the 2014 incident
Sexual Encounters of The Fourth Kind: Alien-Human Sex Studies
Eve Lorgen's classic book, "Alien Love Bite", offers a deeper analysis and understanding of alien mind control, of human sexual behaviors.
After abductions, aliens through implants and mind control, "turn up the volume" of the sexual energies of alien abductees, in a purported attempt to "study" human response/coping behaviors.
Under the seeming guise of 'research', these entities actively and puriently participate.
Part of the understanding of the interaction between aliens and humans is not merely deducing alien tactics
and underlying alien motives, but is
of a sexual nature.
The whole astounding answer, in part, begins with the realization that we are by nature, beyond our awareness and general understanding, inter dimensional beings.
We contain and exude both a physical energy and a spiritual energy.
As our psychic "energy" extends into other dimensions, these energies can be hijacked and exploited by such dark force entities.
Reptilian/grey aliens, the pilots of UFOs, are at the top of this food chain, which includes demons, and other dark astral wildlife which frequent dark dimensions.
Aliens utilize us in the same way that remora and lamprey utilize denizens of the deep, for parasitic reasons.
These aliens have access to other-worldly dimensional wildlife.
Grey-reptoid aliens will throw demons into the abduction equation, to muddle the picture and just for spite, for abductees who actively resist or who come close to guessing
this or other alien/human interaction relationship truths.
Demon possessed aliens?
Aliens, like demons, enter into our physical world, from ethereal dimensions , that ghosts inhabit, to prey human beings, who they relish controlling and even possessing.
To them, we are seen as ,"containers" to inhabit.
With a single- mindedness, controlling reptilians prevail with impunity.
They are predatory, sinister and self justifying, the three criteria of evil.
We seem mere mice for them to toy with as they create problems in our lives and then solve them
to feast on our ethereal energies.
Post abduction aberrant sexual behavior of alien abductees is choreographed and micro managed.
Worse, aliens participate in these field experiments with humans..
At the very least, their unscientific, controlling behaviors are revealingly perverse, in such direct sexual participation, under the seeming guise of 'testing'.
In very many case studies of alien abductees, a key element of what is 'post alien abduction", also involves a 'sexual' phenomenon..
WHAT IF THIS IS ALL FICTION?
However, it may be exactly what it appears to be: actual sexual manipulation by an alien race.
Information voiced through the clients forms a consistent body of knowledge about the alien beings and their motivations for coming to our planet.
Dr William Baldwin echoes what I've separately stumbled upon.
The alien agenda behind the sequence of close encounters, leading to abductions, and then to possession, is similar to their planetary exploits; after exploration, comes conquest.
What follows is phrased from his astounding preface:
[From a case study]
Mona and the ET Controllers
"Mona expressed dismay at her unusually high sexual appetite and her promiscuity. This condition had existed in her life since late adolescence. She had difficulty maintaining monogamous relationships and this caused her deep sadness and confusion. In session, she discovered an ET group experimenting with sexuality. The ET researchers would intensify her sexual desire, like turning up the volume on a TV set, then observe her behavior and her reactions to her own behavior.
We discovered a large network of DFEs [Dark Force Entities] of various levels controlling the ETs in this activity. This particular experimentation involved a broad segment of the human population, and Mona was just one of many people affected. The ET technicians divulged this information, and further revealed a sordid picture of the intrusion.
Some of the DFE-influenced ETs had become personally involved in human sexuality, purposely stimulating licentious and depraved sexual activities. Not only were they distorted in their scientific observation, they were participating in the experiments.
Mona was sickened by the discovery of this information. She had known something was very wrong in her life and suspected entity influence, but had not dreamed of this kind of extensive involvement, particularly the ETs. She was deeply relieved to finally get relief from this terribly intrusive and very personal violation.
Human beings are so terribly caught up in sexual issues from childhood through adolescence and into adulthood, even old age as senility sets in. The entire issue is compounded by the social issues regarding sex, marriage, monogamy, adultery, promiscuity, the religious taboos and imposed guilt, the very real problems of unwanted pregnancy and abortion, disease, human possessiveness and jealousy, and other issues. It is a fertile field for dark force entity influence.
These experiments on emotions and sexuality are ostensibly designed to study human feelings and behavior. The technician simply turns up the volume on some aspect of emotion or behavior and records what happens with the human subject. This behavior or emotional outburst causes anguish in the human. This is the desired result. The anguish is the underlying goal of the project.
The energy emanation of the anguish of human suffering is harvested by the DFEs.
It is used as energy, sustenance, food. In most cases we have found, and other therapists report the same situation, it seems the experiment is a cover for the activity of the DFEs.
This is the true purpose of the "research" conducted by the aliens.
In most cases of ET attachment where such a group is operating, the ship captain or the base commander may be evasive, deceitful, even defiant, and refuse to remove the intrusive devices and alien beings. They will usually divulge the information that there is a high dark being who controls their people.
A client will sometimes describe a sinister and menacing dark figure on the craft, clearly exerting powerful control, and always situated near the ship's captain.
The ET technician is usually unaware of the dark influence. The commander of the space craft is conscious of the dark presence in about half of such cases. The ruling council members on the home world are aware of the dark lords in charge at various levels. They acknowledge that they, or their predecessors in the council, struck an alliance with the dark forces long ago for the purpose of gaining personal and political power.
However, once that dark contact was established, the DFEs took power over the council. The DFEs assumed "ownership" of the alien civilization, and there was nothing that could be done about it.
The council members, usually from three to eleven in number (though once it was reported as a senate of about 1800 members), are grateful for the assistance in separating themselves and their citizens from the DFEs. With the assistance of many light beings, we facilitate the total removal of the dark force entities, from the lowliest DFE attached to the ET technicians, through the dark lords on the craft, to the high-level dark beings wielding power over the council members and the overseers or enforcers who lurk behind the scenes.
After the release of the DFEs from their civilization, the council gladly orders the removal of the implants, monitors, communication devices, various and assorted headbands and skullcaps, and the ET technicians. They order the return of all the craft orbiting this world and any other, and the space stations involved in this hideous project. A tremendous piece of work is completed in a very short time. The effect on consciousness cannot be measured.
Clients have discovered not only these attached ET technicians and their equipment, but also unattended probes and other devices in various parts of the anatomy and in the chakras, or energy centers of the body, both on themselves and other family members.
These probes are non-physical in nature, yet connected in a way which allows for the transmission of information to the ET scientist's location. The probe, or connector, may also allow the ET to remotely control some aspect of the physiology or mental/emotional functioning of the person.
In an altered state, a client can visualize the probe, often a black cord, leading to the ET laboratory. We direct the question to the alien researcher. This communication passes directly to the ETs along the attached connector, and the surprised ET will answer through the voice mechanism of the client.
This can be surprising and distressing to the client, but with our assurance that the control is only temporary, and that many people have overcome this intrusion, most clients continue with the dialogue."
UFO/alien horrid truths emerge from many such case histories that outline
a single mindedness of controlling reptilian aliens, who prevail with impunity, in the sexual lives of alien abductees and
they literally feast on our ethereal energies.
Sexual behavior of alien abductees is choreographed and micromanaged; worse, aliens participate in these field experiments with humans.
The light of this article, of alien/human interaction is shone into darkest corners and can be echoed and documented in more detail, in Eve Lorgen's book, "Alien Love Bite", a required read for any researcher in this field.
I write about this phenomenon, as an abductee, to illuminate dark corners for others.
What possible "good" can come from alliances with them, by Intelligence and governments?
Alien technology, recovered from downed discs and other craft, has already inspired Skunkworks to give us the ability to recreate and reverse engineer:
lasers,
fiber optics,
cold fusion- anti gravity,
microwaves,
stealth technology,
nanotechnology,
microchips,
specialized surgical tools,
cloning-genetic engineering-
and most recently,'smart skins' of craft, which like chameleons, alter shape and color according to environments,
magical technologies studied, reverse engineered and imitated.
We have a lot to be thankful for because of Klaatu, ("The Day the Stood Still") even though he is the complete opposite of the charming, handsome gracious, elevated spirit in film and in book.
He, in reptilian form and in grey form instead sees us in much the same perfunctory way, that we see chickens.
Given these entities natures, as revealed in Baldwin's groundbreaking research, any governments who collaborate with such ETs are clearly busy setting up deckchairs, on the Titanic.
February 5, 2015 - Virtually all Roman Catholic conspiracy theories connect to the Vatican’s Secret Archives. The archives are housed in a section of the Vatican Library, adjacent to the Vatican Museum, at the northern boundary of Vatican City. The Archives have their own website, operated by the Vatican, which states that the documents housed inside pertain to such boring matters as papal expenditure accounts, state correspondence, individual correspondence, including original letters written by Michelangelo Buonarroti to Pope Julius II and other Catholic authorities.
The conspiracy theory, however, is interested in more mysterious matters. Given that the Archives are estimated to house 53 miles of books, there are sure to be some intriguing finds inside. But why would an institution as powerful as the Roman Catholic Church feel the need to keep these documents secret? Are they afraid of what might happen if the public should learn of certain information? That is what the conspiracy theorists believe.
Some of the more broadly sweeping theories claim documentation of the Jesus bloodline; secular historical proof of Jesus’s existence, in the form of correspondence between Saint Paul and Emperor Nero; secular historical proof via the same correspondence that Jesus did not exist; contemporary depictions of Jesus (that is to say, formal portraits of Jesus made by people who actually saw and depicted him in real life, whereas the earliest known depictions of Jesus, which clearly intended to represent him directly, date from the late 2nd Century AD).
This line of the theory can go on ad infinitum, and has accused the Church of hiding proof in the Archives of the existence of various Biblical relics, either the relics themselves, or reliable documentation as to their whereabouts, including the Ark of the Covenant, the Holy Grail, the True Cross, the truth about the Shroud of Turin, and many others.
Absolutely no one is allowed into the Archives, not even Cardinals. It is not well explained, on the Archives’ website, whether the Pope is allowed to go in or not. Anyone who wants to see a document from the Archives must ask in advance, and thus, must know in advance if such a document even exists. The only four people on earth known to have access to the Archives are Cardinals Raffaele Farina (the Archivist, or Librarian), Jorge Maria Mejia and Luigi Poggi (Archivists Emeriti), and Prefect of the Secret Archives Sergio Pagano. There is only one entrance into the Archives: from the main library, go by way of Porta Angelica, through Porta di Santa Anna.
The Vatican Swiss Guard patrols this entrance at all times. It should be noted that contrary to the beliefs of those who hold to this theory, the documents in the Vatican archives which relate to Popes who reigned 75 years earlier are made available to the public. This most recently happened in 2006 when Pope Benedict XVI gave permission for the viewing of all documents relating to the reign of Pope Pius XI. This theory is likely to gain in popularity with the release of yet another completely erroneous film based on the book Angels and Demons by Dan Brown.

Talk about getting the last laugh ... An 83-year-old Connecticut woman who died Jan. 27 pre-wrote her own obituary in which she claimed she had died hiking Mt. Kilimanjaro. The obituary, which Norma Brewer wrote 11 years earlier with a friend, suggested that the cause of her death was hypothermia after her dog, Mia, had eaten her warm winter socks and boots.
The obituary appeared in the Connecticut Post as well as on the obituary page of the Lesko and Polke Funeral Home's website.
“Norma Rae Flicker Brewer, a resident of Fairfield, passed away while climbing Mount Kilimanjaro,” read the death notice. “She never realized her life goal of reaching the summit, but made it to the base camp. Her daughter, Donna, her dog, Mia, and her cats, came along at the last minute. There is suspicion that Mrs. Brewer died from hypothermia, after Mia ate Mrs. Brewer’s warm winter boots and socks."
While the obituary likely didn't fool anyone, it did remind Brewer's loved ones of her fondness for pranks and her sense of humor.
"It was just typical mom," Donna Brewer, Norma's daughter, told the Connecticut Post. "She always had stories, many of which were not true, but thought were funny." Mrs. Brewer actually died from a stroke. "People who don't know my mother are bemused," said Donna Brewer and "People who know my mother are laughing and saying, `Yeah, that's Norma.' ''
A spokesman for the funeral home was not available for comment, but the story has traveled far and wide.
Brewer, of course, isn't the only person to write an obituary that captured the public's attention. Margaret (Marge) Aitken Holcombe of Hilton Head, South Carolina wrote a funny depiction of her life to be published upon her death. And actor James Rebhorn, who died of cancer at age 65, left behind an obituary he penned himself that he called "His Life According To Jim." It appeared originally on his church's website but quickly went viral. - THP

Green light for NASA mission to Jupiter moon Europa
Pack your ice gear – we're going to Europa. NASA's budget request for 2016 includes $30 million for a dedicated mission to Jupiter's icy moon, which is considered one of the best prospects for discovering life in our solar system.
Europa has been a tempting destination for planetary scientists since the mid-1990s, when the Galileo orbiter revealed that it may harbour a deep ocean of briny liquid water beneath a thick icy shell. More recently, reports that plumes of subsurface water could be venting into space sparked calls for a mission to sample that water directly and see if anything lives in it.
Last year, NASA received $100 million from Congress to begin preliminary work on such a mission, but was missing the commitment to further funding for a period long enough to plan a mission.
Now, with another $255 million budgeted over the next 5 years, NASA is giving a clearer green light. "For the first time, the budget supports the formulation and development of a Europa Mission, allowing NASA to begin project formulation," the budget request reads.
The mission will probably involve a spacecraft orbiting Jupiter and making multiple fly-bys of Europa, rather than landing on or orbiting Europa itself. This will make the mission much cheaper and safer, as Europa sits in a harsh radiation environment that can be dangerous for spacecraft. NASA will choose instruments for the spacecraft in spring this year, and aims for a launch date in the mid-2020s.
"This is a big deal," says Robert Pappalardo at NASA's Jet Propulsion Lab in Pasadena, California, the pre-project scientist for the Europa Clipper probe concept. "We're moving toward the next phase, where you're a real mission. It's just thrilling after 15 years of pushing for it. It's a great day." - New Scientist
Beverley Gilmour suffers from a rare condition that sees her leave her own body several times a month.
For most people a near-death experience would be a rare event, something that might happen only in the most unusual and undesirable of circumstances.
For 49-year-old Beverley Gilmour however near-death experiences have become a normal part of her life and she had been enduring them several times a month for almost 30 years.
Her condition is the only known case in the United Kingdom.
"I go into a trance like state whilst I am lying down," she said. "I feel I move over to the after life. I can see my own body and hear everything that is going on around me."
"It is not painful but when I come round I feel sore and stiff and my head burns. I have no concept of time and have no idea how long it takes. I can be so exhausted I am bed-ridden for up to four days."
Once the director of a graphic design company, Gilmour is now registered as disabled and is looked after by her two sons.
"Most people who go through an NDE - a near death experience - have them on the operating table or in a moment of trauma like a car accident," she said.
"But I have been having three a month since 1987." Read more at Express
Roswell UFO researcher and author Tom Carey made headlines a few months ago when he told a crowd at an American University panel that he has photographs that are “smoking gun” evidence proving aliens are real.
Today, more information about the photos were released on an online press conference, and the date set for when the photos will be revealed
The press conference was sponsored by Jaime Maussan, famous Mexican journalist and UFO investigator and he has been promoting the release of the photos as part of an event that will be held at the National Auditorium in Mexico City on May 5, 2015.
According to OpenmindsTV the images were not posted today. One video shows an illustration of the alien based off of what the discovered 1947 slide shows. The video is full of compelling information regarding the Kodak 1947 slides.
Roswell UFO researcher and author Tom Carey made headlines a few months ago when he told a crowd at an American University panel that he has photographs that are “smoking gun” evidence proving aliens are real. Today, more information about the photos were released on an online press conference, and the date set for when the photos will be revealed.
The press conference was sponsored by Jaime Maussan, famous Mexican journalist and UFO investigator. On his website, TercerMilenio.tv, Maussan hosted an online press conference, and has been promoting the release of the photos as part of an event that will be held at the National Auditorium in Mexico City on May 5, 2015.

Tercermilenio’s YouTube channel posted several interviews and videos that shed more light on the background of the pictures, and include an animation of what the aliens may have looked like. There is even an interview with astronaut Edgar Mitchell who is from Roswell and says he believes an alien spacecraft really did crash in the area in 1947.
The interview that gives the most insight as to how the pictures were discovered is from a man named Adam Dew who says he is friends with the brother of the woman who found them. He says that his friend’s sister found them in 1989 when she was cleaning out the house of a deceased couple in Arizona. She was getting the house ready for an estate sale.
Among the items that she was asked to take to the dump was a box full of photos. She decided to keep the box and took it home and put it in her garage. She did not look at the box again for ten years. When she did, she found some great pictures from all over the world, some of which included famous people. People such as Clark Gable, Bing Crosby, and even President Dwight Eisenhower (some of these pictures can be seen in the video above).

Part of the box had been water damaged and was falling apart. This lead her to find a couple of slides that were stashed away and wrapped up separately. She unwrapped them and saw they depicted what appeared to be an alien.
In his interview, Dew says, “They seem real to me. The people I have shown them to that were there say they are what they saw in Roswell.”
Eventually, Dew and his friend found their way to Carey and his research partner Don Schmitt. They are two of the current top investigators of the Roswell UFO incident.

Carey says they took the slides to a historian with Kodak and verified that the slides were manufactured in 1947. Furthermore, the sleeves the slides were in are the type used by Kodak from 1942 to 1949.
He says the slides show “what appears to be a 3 and a half to four foot tall alien.”
Carey says it has a frail body, over sized head, two arms and two legs. It is partially dissected and the head has been removed from the body. The alien appears to be lying on an army blanket.
Carey continued, “It was taken indoors, but we don’t know where and we don’t know the circumstances.”
In Schmitt’s interview, he stresses how important he feels the discovery of these slides is to their research. “It will certainly be the most important event in our lifetimes, because we are demonstrating, not only photographic evidence, but we are also demonstrating what all of these witnesses have reported to us over all of these years.”
Mitchell, who was part of the Apollo 14 mission and the sixth person to walk on the moon, says he grew up in Roswell. He says he returned to Roswell after he had went to the moon and several people told him that the Roswell UFO crash was real. This included a Major who was a friend of the family.
Mitchell says he took this information to the Pentagon in 1997 and spoke to an admiral who was the chief of intelligence for the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The admiral said he knew nothing about it, but would look into it. Mitchell says, “When he tried to find out, he was told ‘You don’t need to know.’”
Although the images were not posted today, one video shows an illustration of the alien based off of what the slide shows.

Anthony Bragalia, who claims he helped with the investigation of the photographs, gave more details about the deceased couple who owned the house where the pictures were found in a recent story for The UFO Chronicles. He says their names were Bernerd and Hilda Blair Ray.
Bernerd was an oil exploration geologist who worked in the area of New Mexico. Bragalia writes, “In 1947 he was the President of the Texas chapter of the American Institute of Petroleum Geologists, which also at that time ‘folded in’ the State of New Mexico. After 1947, Bernerd became a ‘ghost’ in his profession and did not publish nor appear to be active with the Institute ever again."
Bernard and Hilda Blair Ray. (The video spells his name Berard. Bragalia spells it Bernerd). This is the couple who are believed to have owned the slides in question. The slides were found in their house after they had passed away. (Credit: Tercermilenio.tv)
Bragalia says Carey, Schmitt, and the current owner of the slides say they found that Hilda was a ” highly respected lawyer with a high-end clientele and possible intelligence connections.”
The researchers also found out that Hilda was also a pilot, and both of the Rays were philanthropic. They concluded that the couple have “no propensity to prank.”
So now the stage is set. Will the photos deliver on the high expectations that have been set? We will have to wait for Maussan’s Cinco de Mayo event in Mexico City to find out. Meanwhile, Maussan will be speaking at the International UFO Congress in Arizona later this month. He is sure to talk about the photos and create more excitement for his event in May.
Er is zodanig druk UFO-verkeer rond het ISS ruimtestation dat iedereen die wat tijd vrij maakt een goede kans heeft om er één of meer waar te nemen.
Alhoewel NASA met grote regelmaat de camera uitzet wanneer er iets bijzonders te zien is, glippen er toch nog genoeg mooie opnames door de mazen van het net.
Dat het echt wel de moeite loont om zelf via beschikbare webcams dingen in de gaten te houden, bewijst het volgende verhaal van een lezer (dank!):
Op zondag avond zat ik even op ISS Livestream. Na dit ruim een half uurtje te hebben bekeken wilde ik eigenlijk net weer afsluiten voor de nachtrust.
Tot mijn verbazing komt er ineens een witte bol achter de ISS vandaan. Dit was op zondag 1 februari 2015 om 23:42.
Uiteindelijk heeft dit tot 23:48 geduurd. Helaas kan ik daar geen filmopnames van maken, maar ik heb in dit soort gevallen altijd paint open staan om via PrtSc snel te kunnen opslaan.
Hier volgen een aantal opnames van de witte UFO die vanachter het ISS tevoorschijn komt.
Op een aantal volgende opnames is te zien dat de UFO zich verder verwijdert van het ruimtestation.
Zoals de lezer concludeert:
Er blijven dus verbazingwekkende zaken gebeuren bij de ISS en gek dat NASA het niet op zwart(blauw) gooide.
Hier zien we waarschijnlijk weer zo’n situatie waar we eerder over schreven dat ze bij NASA net even niet goed hebben opgelet toen dit gebeurde. Het is in ieder geval het zoveelste bewijs dat er druk UFO-verkeer is rondom het ISS ruimtestation.
Amazing UFO sighting filmed over Vero Beach, Florida 27-Jan-2015 + UPDATE
Amazing UFO sighting filmed over Vero Beach, Florida 27-Jan-2015 + UPDATE
Here’s this interesting UFO video that was recorded from Vero Beach, a city in Indian River County, Florida. This was filmed on Tuesday, 27th January 2015.
Check out this amazing piece of footage here:
And here are some interesting comments from Youtube:
What do you think about this sighting? Please leave your comments below!
A lot of people are contacting me and reporting more sighting from this area. It looks like Vero Beach recently became a very popular UFO hotspot!
Heres one report from Mark, he had a sighting on 31st January, four days after the video above was recorded:
A constant bright orange dot in the southwest that would occasionally drift sideways to the west. At first, I thought it was a night launch – they’re kinda common around here – but launches typically are seen to the north. This was to the southwest. The color and brightness was reminiscent of a launch, but it was more constant, no flicker to it.. It seemed to stay at the same altitude, but moved sideways a couple of times, slowly, to the west.. I watched it for about a minute or two, and it faded out.
When I got home, I posted on Facebook ‘Did anyone else see that’? but got no responses. The thought crossed my mind that it could be a Chinese lantern drifting in the wind, but it seemed too high and too bright. I wouldn’t have reported this, had I not just now seen the January 25th report of similar sightings in the same town. Thanks.

New amazing video footage of two bright UFO lights recorded above Vero Beach, Florida on 27th January 2015.
Witness said: These golden objects at the CE-5 event (see www.SiriusDisclosure.com for info on CE-5s) were viewed with very advanced night vision binoculars. There were NO boats or ships seen anywhere in the area of the objects and there were no jets or planes or other airborne objects anywhere near the objects before, during or after the event. There was no smoke which would be seen from flares. They emerged in this dimension suddenly and did not drift or move laterally in the direction of the wind, which was gusty at times. A flare with a small parachute would have visibly drifting significantly to the south during the long duration of the sighting. They were seen in the area of fast-moving and appearing UFOs that were not filmed but were seen the prior evening.

New interesting video footage of a bright UFO sighting recorded on ISS live cam on 31st January 2015.
Witness said: What I first thought was the Moon appeared not to be! Is it a materializing UFO as many ufologists claim UFO’s can do? Many people will have answers of their own! but I can assure you this does not happen often. The odd thing is! this is the second ISS NASA UFO footage published and recorded by us in 1 day withing 24hrs, Our first video was stripped from viewing under YouTube search “UFO” filtered “Today” will this be the second video to be stripped from public viewing? we will soon find out.
Witness said: This is definitely in a no fly zone, craft had ‘NO RUNNING LIGHTS’ and was completely black. Triangle craft was about 10 to maybe 15′ in height. The consistent steady lights are consistent with known ET CRAFT. Lights do not alternate from color. They are ‘ULTRAVIOLET’ which is why to the naked eye they reflected no light. Only once recorded are you able to see lights. ET craft made absolutely ‘zero noise’!!! I am in direct contact with them!!!
So what happens if the aliens land? Here, on Earth.
I'm not talking about detecting a radio signal or a laser flash from hundreds of light-years away. I'm speaking of visitors who actually set their boots on the ground. What do we do?
It may surprise you to learn that there's precious little preparation for such an eventuality.
Now, if you're among the many tens of millions of Americans who think aliens are already afoot in the land, you're confident you know humanity's reaction. Scoffing denial.
But face it: Few scientists are convinced by the evidence offered for visitation. So let's consider the question assuming that the extraterrestrials aren't here.
First, there's the popular take. Thanks to a half-century of movies featuring aliens who've steered themselves to our watery world, the public reckons that a landing will play out in only one of two ways: (1) The whole incident, which is usually high on weirdness and low on damage to humans, will be covered up by a paranoid government (think UFOs), or (2) the aliens haven't come in peace and will proceed to either ravage the planet or remodel it to suit themselves (think Independence Day).
But limiting ourselves to this pair of scenarios is cramping our style. So here's another idea: In a movie being screened at this year's Sundance Film Festival, Danish director Michael Madsen lays out a more cerebral storyline, and one that might be more realistic. In The Visit, a fictional piece presented as documentary, real scientists, politicians, military types, and United Nations officials sit behind their stunningly neat desks and mull over what to do about a house guest who's arrived from the stars.
Of course, before the mulling begins, an off-screen voice offers a solemn disclaimer: "As far as we know, no alien has ever landed on Earth." This will undoubtedly cause audiences in New Mexico to twist in their seats, but maybe Madsen wants to forestall the misunderstandings that followed Orson Welles' 1938 War of the Worlds broadcast: fiction mistaken for fact.
After that, the film showcases a string of experts ruminating on the difficulties posed by a non-human species landed in the front yard. They mostly address two concerns: How do we handle the public, and what kind of conversation can we have with our guests?
The former, of course, is a well-known hot-button issue. In fact, and despite the implications of the film, neither world governments nor the United Nations are primed to deal with beings who don't have DNA. Indeed, they've shown essentially no interest in this issue; for example, the UN has neither adopted nor deliberated protocols to deal with a SETI signal, let alone considered their actions in case of a physical visit. The UN has plenty of fish to fry, but they're not alien fish.
In The Visit they suddenly are interested. There's repeated high-level talk of quarantining the evidence and telling the public as little as possible (conspiracy fans shake their heads knowingly), all in the interests of security and the equanimity of the populace. Unsurprisingly, this is a view more congruent with continental attitudes than American: In Europe the experts, including governments, are presumed to know best.
But in fact, and refreshingly, security's not much of an issue. Neither public panic nor a military threat occur. Despite abundant footage of tanks urgently shambling through the forests, there's no face-off with the extraterrestrials.
You probably have your own views on whether visitors would be benign, but in any case the lack of conflict is certainly for the best. If the UN (or, for that matter, the Pentagon) doesn't have a manual for dealing with extraterrestrial invasion sitting on the shelf, it's not only because these organizations figure the chance of that happening is remote. It's also because there's not much they could do. If aliens have the technology to visit Earth, they're at least centuries beyond us technologically. Picture the asymmetry of the Christian crusaders facing a contemporary military. If E.T. is here to cause trouble, about the best you could do is negotiate.
The real essence of the encounter pictured in The Visit is not in such mundane matters as whether or not the visitor is going to raze our infrastructure but the sociological implications. "How does your mind work?" the experts ask. "Do you have imagination? A concept of good and evil?"
What we really want to know is how much they are like us. Sure, maybe it would be nice to understand their rocket technology or ask if they can tell us what really happens at the center of a black hole, but the essential value of extraterrestrial contact would be to calibrate ourselves.
This is a more nuanced line of inquiry. The Visit, alone among the many films dealing with putative alien encounters, takes it on.
The Visit is ascetic, spare, and slow-moving -- kind of like space itself. It makes Last Year at Marienbad look like an action film. But the purpose of the movie is not simply to tickle your reptilian brain but to prompt you to muse on what you'd want to know about a being from another world with its own environment and its own evolutionary history. In this sense The Visit dares to go where no sci-fi film has gone before.
Since childhood , I am contacted by aliens , it is small gray positive ! I have been repeatedly abductions, direct contact with the small gray in my sleep stages ! Following this and many hypnosis sessions , this book was born ! This book contains obvious realities in the very famous Guy Tarade which supports the thesis that things are not written by chance , and besides , the chance does not exist !
Starting to read, you would say " But this is pure fiction! " So I reply " What is Science Fiction to you? and Ufology ? ". At one point , the true Science Fiction comes to us in the form of flying saucers, UFO that arise on Earth , small humanoids out of the craft circling or walking. This is the reality , but what is the reality for you ?

Disc-shaped object seen and photographed in Vermont
Disc-shaped object seen and photographed in Vermont
Date:December, 2003 Location: (Southeast), Vermont, United States
Amateur photographer from Connecticut was setting up his camera, when something caught his attention out of the corner of his eye. It wasn't like anything he'd seen before. After recovering from the awe in seeing this, he quickly took a picture.
Source:UFOEvidence.org
Sighting Report:
Duration of sighting: 30 seconds No. of Objects: Single No. of Witnesses: 1
Full Description & Details: I'm a amatuer photographer from Connecticut. One weekend I decided to drive up to Vermont for a day of picture taking. I was very excited because I heard that snow had just recently fell up in the mountains so I was hoping to get some good shots.
I finally got up to Vermont and just started to drive around aimlessly, hoping to find some good photo ops. Mid-afternoon(about 2-3 pm) I saw this great shot of some mountain with snow blowing all over the place on top of it. That day had about 20mph winds with higher gusts, as you can see in the picture. I parked the car on the side of the road, and stepped out, kneeled down and started to set up my camera to take the picture.
As I was setting up my camera, something caught my attention out of the corner of my eye. It moved rather slowly, sort of like gliding, but not. It's very hard to explain because I have nothing to compare it to, it wasn't like anything I've seen before. It moved from the left to right in the picture(sorry, but I have no idea what the cardinal directions for that would be). The object looked as if it was having a little bit of trouble flying into the wind. After recovering from the awe in seeing this, I quickly took a picture. RIght after I took the picture it looked like the object stayed in the same sport for a second, and then it QUICKLY jolted all the way to right out of my view.
I have no idea what this object could have been, and now after viewing this site, I believe it may in fact have been a UFO. I hope this picture interests you as much as it intrests me.
Personal Background: Student(I rather not say which school)
Reported Sighting? No Location: Connecticut, US
Case ID: 239

Mysterious Orange Snow Falls on Russian Town
Mysterious Orange Snow Falls on Russian Town
by Paul Seaburn
I survive winters by abiding by these three simple rules: enjoy the white snow, drive carefully in the grey snow and don’t eat the yellow snow. I don’t know what to do if orange snow falls and neither did the residents of the Russian city of Saratov when it was blanketed this week with a deep covering of orange flakes.
Saratov is a major port (population over 800,000) on the Volga River, 858 km (533 miles) from Moscow, and has a moderate (for Russia) climate with an annual snowfall of about 163 centimeters (64 inches) which, until now, has never been orange.
The orange snow was widespread and of various shades of orange along with patches of yellow and brown. Saratov’s residents were rightly skeptical to avoid eating snowflakes or jumping in the juice-colored banks until finding out what caused it. The most likely reason, according to Saratov weather forecast service director Mikhail Boltukhin, was a cyclone that blew colored sand from Africa’s Sahara desert into Siberian snow clouds.
The air coming from the West contains tiny particles of sand, which give the falling snow an orange hue. Similar phenomena have been observed recently in various districts of the region and in other parts of the country, particularly in Crimea.
Officials said the orange snow was “harmless” to humans and animals
Well, the second part is true. In 2007, an orange snow covered over 1500 sq km (570 sq miles) in the Omsk region of Russia. That stuff was oily and smelled rotten and was blamed on the area’s oil industry, although it also contained four times the normal level of iron ore.
Colored snow can have other causes. Red-and-pink watermelon snow is common in alpine regions and gets its colors and telltale smell of watermelon from an algae (Chlamydomonas nivalis). So-called blood snow falls near Blood Falls in Antarctica’s Taylor Glacier for a different reason. Iron-rich saltwater leaking from an ancient reservoir under the glacier oxidizes when it hits the air and turns the waterfall and snow blood red.
Saharan sand, algae, oxidation … or something else. What do you think was the real cause of Saratov’s orange snow?

‘Impossible’ Quantum Space Engine Actually Works – NASA Test Suggests
‘Impossible’ Quantum Space Engine Actually Works – NASA Test Suggests
A couple of years ago, researchers at NASA’s Johnson Space Center discovered a thruster system which actually generates thrust, despite requiring absolutely zero propellant. The implications of this discovery are far-reaching; applications for space flight and other technologies which require propulsion could one day become far cheaper, allowing space exploration to expand exponentially. The existence of this technology also further validates the fact that energy can be derived from tapping into the quantum vacuum, also known as “zero-point” energy or “free energy.”
This type of technology uses quantum vacuum fluctuations to create thrust.
“A century from now, it will be well known that: the vacuum of space which fills the universe is itself the real substratum of the universe; vacuum in a circulating state becomes matter; the electron is the fundamental particle of matter and is a vortex of vacuum with a vacuum-less void at the center and is dynamically stable; the speed of light relative to vacuum is the maximum speed that nature has provided and is an inherent property of the vacuum; vacuum is a subtle fluid unknown in material media; vacuum is mass-less, continuous, non viscous, and incompressible and is responsible for all the properties of matter; and that vacuum has always existed and will exist forever. Then scientists, engineers and philosophers will bend their heads in shame knowing that modern science ignored the vacuum in our chase to discover reality for more than a century” – Paramahamsa Tewari (source)
Many materialistically inclined scientists still refuse to accept this fact, simply because it goes against the current framework of accepted knowledge and/or their perception of the world. Regardless of new discoveries that challenge the current laws and theories of science, empirical data that goes against these beliefs (in the name of science) continues to be ignored. This must stop.
The propellant-less thruster is called the Cannae Drive, invented by Guido Fetta, and was tested by NASA over an eight day testing campaign that took place in August of 2013. It showed that a small amount of thrust was indeed achieved inside a container, again, without the use of any fuel. The results were then presented at the 50th Joint Propulsion Conference in Cleveland, Ohio in July the next year.
You can access the paper (titled “Numerical and Experimental Results for a Novel Propulsion Technology Requiring no On-Board Propellant”) that was presented at the conference here and inventor Guido Fetta’s paper here.
The paper is also available on NASA’s website, you can view it here, it’s the first link you see but unfortunately it doesn’t seem to work…
“Approximately 30-50 micro-Newtons of thrust were recorded from an electric propulsion test article consisting primarily of radio frequency (RF) resonant cavity excited at approximately 935 megahertz. Testing was performed on a low-thrust torsion pendulum that is capable of detecting force at a single-digit micronewton level” (source)
According to extremetech.com, the inventor is claiming that the version NASA tested is flawed, which resulted in them collecting far lower thrust readings than the original model can provide. However, that point is irrelevant; the fact remains that there is thrust being generated from the vacuum.
Apparently, humans haven’t quite figured out how to generate energy by pulling it out of the vacuum, but that’s according to mainstream science. At the same time there seems to be plenty of evidence to suggest that yes, we have indeed figured it out, and we might not be the only ones who have. This type of technology is exactly what Jack Kasher, Ph.D (and Professor Emeritus of Physics and the University of Nebraska) was talking about when he made his statement regarding Extraterrestrial space travel.
"There is another way whether it’s wormholes or warping space, there’s got to be a way to generate energy so that you can pull it out of the vacuum, and the fact that they’re here shows us that they found a way.” (source)
This type of propulsion system was also demonstrated by a British researcher named Roger Shawyer, who has had successful tests with what is referred to as the “EmDrive,” which also generates thrust through unconventional means. You can learn more about that here.
The Chinese Academy of sciences also published a paper by Professor Yang Juan providing high power test results. You can read that paper here.
The NASA researchers concluded that examined the Cannae drive closed by saying:
“Future test plans include independent verification and validation at other test facilities.” (source)
Can We Use Quantum Vacum Fluctuations To Provide The World With “Free” Energy/Power?
“Ere many generations pass, our machinery will be driven by a power obtainable at any point in the universe. This idea is not novel…We find it in the delightful myth of Antheus, who derives power from the earth; we find it among subtle speculations of one of your splendid mathematicians….Throughout space there is energy. Is this energy static, or kinetic? If static our hopes are in vain; if kinetic – and this we know it is, for certain – then it is a mere question of time when men will succeed in attaching their machinery to the very wheel work of nature.” – Nikola Tesla (source)
Science has shown us that atoms aren’t just sitting in a void, they’re in fact sitting in a sea of energy. Once physicists realized that this energy is there, the next question was whether it could be tapped, or used to develop new, clean green energy generators that run of off it. The answer is yes. Back in the 1980’s a researcher at Hughes laboratory by the name of Robert Forward demonstrated a phenomenon dubbed the “casimir effect” which proved that yes, this energy could indeed be tapped and possibly used to generate energy itself. (source)
“Vacuums generally are thought to be voids, but Hendrik Casimir believed these pockets of nothing do indeed contain fluctuations of electromagnetic waves. He suggested that two metal plates held apart in a vacuum could trap the waves, creating vacuum energy that could attract or repel the plates. As the boundaries of a region move, the variation in vacuum energy (zero-point energy) leads to the Casimir effect. Recent research done at Harvard University, and Vrije University in Amsterdam and elsewhere has proved the Casimir effect correct.” (source)
For more information on using this type of energy to generate power you can check out the articles below. Again, it would not be solar, wind, fuel-derived energy, that’s why it’s refereed to as “Free Energy.” We are not implying that this energy would be free from cost. This is energy that’s derived from what we call “space.” It exists all around us.

TV show looking for aliens on Earth
TV show looking for aliens on Earth
A new television show is searching for extraterrestrials. But rather than looking to the stars, this show is looking for visitors right here on planet Earth.
Some believe that extraterrestrials may have visited Earth long ago. And others firmly believe that visitors from other worlds are here now.
This show, which is seemingly working with the tentative title of Aliens Among Us, aims to explore the possibility that extraterrestrials not only exist, but that they actually live among us.
The show is reportedly being produced by an Emmy Award-winning production company for a major television network.
The casting information for the show reads:
Maybe you arrived here from another planet, but don’t remember how or why? Maybe you’re an alien-human hybrid. Maybe you are married to an alien. Or maybe you have experience studying alien activity.
If you’ve ever met an alien, if you believe you ARE an alien, or if you study extraterrestrial activity, and if you have an interest in participating in this show, send an email to AliensAmongUs1@gmail.com with your name, age, phone number, location, and a couple photos of yourself.

Mysterious sightings in Australia’s skies
Mysterious sightings in Australia’s skies
IS IT a bird, is it a plane? Wait a second ...

Something very strange has been happening in Australia’s skies, baffling even the nation’s top air safety experts.
It turns out that pilots have been reporting sightings of mysterious flying objects for years, but these cases have been kept hush-hush. It’s only now that they are finally coming to light.
And it’s all thanks to two curious scientists: Paul Dean, a Melbourne-based UFO researcher, and Keith Basterfield, the author of UFOs: the Image Hypothesis.
The ATSB report had concluded that an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV — otherwise known as a drone) may have been responsible for the March 19 sighting.
But there are doubts, with an ATSB spokesman telling news.com.au: “The ATSB was not able to confirm the details of the object or identify any UAV operator in the area at that time.”
Details of the incident were provided in the report: “At about 3800 ft above mean sea level, the crew sighted a bright strobe light directly in front of the aircraft. The light appeared to track towards the aircraft and the crew realised that the light was on an unknown object, possibly an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) ...
“The pilot reported that the object was cylindrical in shape and grey in colour.”
The shocked pilot, who had 53 passengers on board, was forced to take evasive action to avoid a collision with the object.
Dean and Basterfield had originally pushed for the case to be classed as a UFO event. However, they have just published a new analysis of the close encounter, and now they believe that someone could be firing rockets at planes, Crikey reports.
Why did they change their minds? The scientists had lodged a freedom of information request with Air Services Australia, asking for information on recent cases of unexplained objects in our skies. They were stunned when the response to their request detailed 13 incidents over the past seven years.
One of these involved a “missile-like object” that was seen dropping in the skies, with a parachute.
Could rockets be to blame?Source: AFP
According to the Airservices Australia response: “(Flight) XKI (DH8C) reported a foreign object of approximate size (1 metre) within close proximity (50ft) of the aircraft causing them to level out briefly as the object passed left hand side. The rocket like object (shaft) was observed to be attached to a parachute. Pilot reported observation at 6800 ft.”
Other strange cases include once that occurred last January, where a pilot spotted “something hovering ... which then disappeared”, and another in September 2012 where “TGW581 reported a red cylindrical object passing the aircraft in the opposite direction when climbing through FL200 approximately 20nm miles south of Sydney.”.
Perhaps even stranger was this account on April 25, 2010 near Mt Jerrabomberra, NSW: “Unidentified (upside down pyramid shaped) object drifting close to final rwy 35 ... Initially drifted west, towards final for rwy 35, before climbing and drifting to the Northeast. Two aircraft (QFA814 and VOZ259) were diverted through noise abatement areas to avoid the object.”
Could it be a UFO?Source: Getty Images
Dean and Basterfield have submitted further freedom of information requests for more details on the cases and continue to analyse the events. You can read more about their research on their website.
So were the objects rockets, or UFOs? For now, nobody is quite sure.
The ATSB declined to comment further on the issue when contacted by news.com.au. Airservices Australia has also been contacted for comment.
(Blogger's Note: I pass on the following information because of the nature of the information and the high level of interest in the Roswell slides. This information is of interest to those who visit this blog... I have not been able to vet the information contained here and do not know the name of the Kodak consultant nor do I know the names of any of the scientists.)
THE PUBLIC REVEAL OF THE ROSWELL ALIEN SLIDES
BY ANTHONY BRAGALIA
What some say represents stunning visual evidence of a humanoid creature that was found crashed near Roswell, NM in 1947 will soon to be released in an international livestream event. Referred to by some as “the Roswell Slides,” the Kodachrome images have now been authenticated by expert scientists and their provenance has been confirmed. During that long process many have speculated about precisely what these pictures show. People will now be able to see for themselves with the public reveal of the slides on May 5th 2015.
NATIONAL AUDITORIUM, MEXICO CITY
The event will include presenters Dr. Edgar Mitchell, the sixth man on the Moon, as well as noted authors and Roswell investigators Tom Carey and Don Schmitt. Transmitted live from the 10,000 seat National Auditorium in Mexico City, the history and background context of the slides (as well as other facets of the case) will be detailed. Tom Carey, who made international news when he announced the discovery of the slides at American University in Washington, DC last month, will be providing more information and logistical details on the event shortly.
A SHORT SLIDES REDUX
Some years ago, while an attic was being cleaned out, a chest was found containing many Kodachrome slides. Two Kodachrome slides were later found to have been separately hidden in an envelope within the inner lining of the chest’s lid. The chest and its contents were traced and found to have belonged to an intriguing, childless couple that are now deceased.
This author made the discovery that the husband, Bernerd A. Ray, was an Oil Exploration Geologist working the fields in New Mexico and the Permian Basin (which includes the Roswell region) in the 1940s for a company that would later become part of Texaco. In 1947 he was the President of the Texas chapter of the American Institute of Petroleum Geologists, which also at that time ‘folded in’ the State of New Mexico. After 1947, Bernerd became a ‘ghost’ in his profession and did not publish nor appear to be active with the Institute ever again.
Bernerd’s wife was Hilda Blair Ray. Researchers Tom Carey and Don Schmitt and the current owner of the film learned that Hilda was a highly respected lawyer with a high-end clientele and possible intelligence connections. A private pilot, she maintained favorable relations with well-placed individuals in both the public and private sectors during the 1940s. The other slides in the chest (over 100) are often found depicting accomplished people, including Dwight Eisenhower. This is a couple who were of the highest integrity. And both had contacts and activities that could have fortuitously enabled them to obtain these slides. And neither would have been the type to hide away hoaxed images as part of some sick prank, only to have those images found decades later by happenstance. This busy professional couple was also philanthropic with no propensity to prank.
WHY THE SLIDES ARE GENUINE
Professionals from a range of disciplines who have seen the slides agree that they depict a small humanoid creature –a formerly living thing- that is not a prop nor a genetically defective human [Blogger's note: Of all the UFO researchers involved here, Carey is the most qualified to make judgements... He has a background in Anthropology and completed the course work for a Ph.D, but didn't complete a dissertation]. And importantly, the being that is shown in the slides does not correlate whatsoever to the depictions of aliens extant in the popular culture of the 1940s (such as those that appeared in pulp magazines like Amazing Stories or movies like Buck Rogers) What the slides depict were not even part of the public psyche of that time. This is not how people envisioned things from outer space to look like back then. Instead, these 1947 slides reveal a being that looks like the beings found in the desert in 1947 as described by the witnesses to Roswell.
I was asked by Tom Carey to find the best available talent to test and analyze these Kodak slides. An extensive search was conducted and I found that talent. A Photo Scientist employed by Kodak for decades who will be named at the event, this expert has led engineering, production and product management groups at the company’s Rochester, NY headquarters. Now a consultant, he also published the definitive book on Kodak film processes. Highly acknowledged in his field, he conducted extensive testing on the slides and conclusively authenticated the slides of the creature as having been exposed in the year 1947. It was also concluded that the slides had not been tampered with nor manipulated in any way. What is depicted is really there, accurately reflected in the emulsion as an actual moment in time in 1947. Science has weighed in and has determined that these are real slides that are really from 1947.
And Law would agree with Science in this case. In the eyes of the courts, the slides serve as two types of legally admissible evidence. Circumstantial Evidence represents informed and reasonable inferences that can be made about a case given the specific circumstances and history surrounding it. The circumstances and history surrounding the Rays is very telling- from who they were and what they did, to where they were and who they knew. Documentary Evidence is a legal term that relates to evidence that accurately reflects a moment in time. This includes video, sound recordings, x-rays, photographs and slides.
THE ONLY CONCLUSION
This humanoid is not a deformed person, mummy, dummy, simian or dead serviceman. It is not a creature that finds its origin on Earth. And given that the slides of this creature were taken the very same year as the Roswell UFO crash; that the appearance of the creature matches the reported appearance of the Roswell crash aliens; and given that the person who was in original possession of the slides was a geologist working the New Mexico desert throughout the 1940’s, it is not a jump or stretch to then conclude that these slides indeed show the corpse of one of the creatures found fallen at Roswell.
A UFO has been spotted in Crewe sparking debate as to whether the town has been visited by extra terrestrials.
The photo, which was posted on Facebook, was originally taken last Friday to highlight a possible health and safety issue concerning a worker a top of Crewe’s Clock Tower.
But look closely and you can see an eerie glowing light eerily sits in the sky, prompting some to wonder whether the truth was out there.
Crewe Town Council clerk Steve McQuade said: “I knew when I took up this job that Crewe is a very interesting place and attracts folk from far and wide, but events last Friday moved Crewe onto the intergalactic level.
“We are trying hard to attract people into Crewe for events, meetings and conferences using the great facilities in the town and I can only assume that our message has got out well beyond the solar system.
“It was a surprise to receive the image of what looks like the classic flying saucer hovering over the clock tower.
“We need independent verification of course, but alien spotting may now compliment train spotting as a leisure activity.”
While some people on social media remain open to the possibility of being visited by alien life, it seems not everyone is impressed.
And some even have their own, more plausible, theories.
Jason Griffiths said: “It IS the reflection of a light fitting on the glass of a window in Delemere House.
“The photo was initially taken to capture the amazingly stupid actions by the person on top of the clock tower attempting to clean the flag pole.”
Jaime Maussan: “Important news item: Mexico has been chosen to present an item of evidence that will change history. This coming May 5th at the National Auditorium, some of the most renowned experts in the world will appear before 10,000 spectators [Donald R. Schmitt, Thomas J. Carey, Adam Dew, ]. They have researched what is without the most important case of all time. Evidence from this case shall be presented. Edgar Mitchell will be among those present, the 6th man to walk on the lunar surface, who has spoken with us about the possibility that we are being visited, a man with access to the most confidential files, one who has spoken with the most important world figures. More details will be made known briefly in a press conference before the domestic and international media. The event will be held on [date on screen] so that you may also be a witness, and also form part of history. An extraordinary event!”

La Nasa va aller voir s'il y a de la vie sur Europa, une lune de Jupiter
La Nasa va aller voir s'il y a de la vie sur Europa, une lune de Jupiter
A la demande de Barack Obama, le Congrès américain vient de débloquer un budget spécial pour lancer une mission d'exploration vers un satellite de Jupiter. Europa possède en effet un océan de glace qui pourrait abriter la vie.

Nasa
C'est une sorte de feu vert que vient de recevoir la Nasa. Barack Obama a en effet décidé d'augmenter de 2,7% pour le porter à 18,5 milliards de dollars en 2016. Une augmentation validée par le Congrès. Celle-ci va notamment servir à financer les 30 millions nécessaires aux travaux préparatoires à une mission d'exploration d'Europa (ou Europe), une lune de Jupiter qui pourrait abriter la vie. A cela s'ajoutent 255 millions de dollars programmés sur les 5 prochaines années et 100 millions de dollars déjà alloués pour l'année en cours, explique The new scientist.
Le projet Europa Clipper
Le programme, mûri depuis les années 1990, commencera par la construction d'une sonde spatiale appelée "Europa Clipper", en vue d'un lancement au milieu des années 2020. Les responsables du projet vont en effet devoir trouver des solutions à plusieurs difficultés techniques. Comme l'explique Sara Susca, ingénieure du système informatique, il est difficile de pénétrer dans l'orbite de la planète en raison d' "une jungle de radiation autour de Jupiter." Il faudra donc prévoir des boucliers pour protéger les capteurs électroniques de la sonde. Les chercheurs auront jusqu'au printemps 2015 pour présenter "les instruments qui seront à bord" avant de passer à l'étape suivante.
"Compte tenu de ces difficulté, la sonde risque de rester en orbite autour de Jupiter et de faire de multiples approches d'Europa, plutôt que d'attérir ou d'orbiter autour de la lune elle-même, croit savoir The New Scientist. Cela rendra la mission moins onéreuse et plus sûre."
Les principales tâches de "Europa Clipper" seront de photographier la surface du satellite et d'analyser la vapeur d'eau de ses geysers.

Nasa
Pourquoi Europa?
Europe que l'on nomme "lune galliléenne" est couvert de glaces. Certains scientifiques pensent que l'océan caché sous cette couche polaire pourrait abriter une eau propice à une forme de vie. Des recherches dans ce sens avaient eu lieu sur la planète Mars à la mi-janvier, mais le rééquilibrage du budget en faveur d'Europe devrait nuire aux avancées sur la Planète Rouge. La Nasa avait déjà lancé en 2011 la sonde Juno vers Jupiter. Celle-ci doit arriver en juillet 2016.
On its website (www.ufocenter.com), the Seattle-based National UFO Reporting Center (NUFORC) has accounts of 1,857 UFO sightings observed throughout most sections of Missouri since the early 1950s. Because only about 5 percent of UFO witnesses actually report their experiences, the total number of Missouri UFO encounters is, no doubt, much higher.
An account of a UFO crash in southeast Missouri preceded the well-known Roswell, N.M., crash by almost six years. In 1991, the late Leonard Stringfield, an early UFO investigator and former civilian consultant to UFO operations at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio, in the 1950s, published an account of an alleged 1941 UFO crash near Cape Girardeau. Stringfield’s article appeared in the July 1991 issue of his “Status Report,” a monthly publication on UFO activities and investigations. The article was based on information received from Charlette Mann, who was a young child living in Cape Girardeau in 1941. At the time, Charlette’s grandfather, the Rev. William Huffman, was pastor of Cape’s Red Star Baptist Church.
Charlette told Stringfield her grandfather received a call in spring 1941 from local police asking him to travel with them to the site of an airplane crash outside the city limits to minister to the victims of the crash. When the Rev. Huffman arrived on the scene, police officers, firefighters, FBI agents, emergency medical crew and numerous military personnel — presumably from the Army air base in nearby Sikeston — were viewing what Huffman described as a disc-shaped object, the interior of which contained a small metal chair, gauges, dials and hieroglyphic-like inscriptions and writings around the inside. He also saw three entitles, or “non-human people,” lying on the ground. Two were just outside the craft, with a third somewhat farther away. He described the bodies as hairless with large heads, big eyes, small mouths and very small ears. The Rev. Huffman said the dead individuals were about 4 feet tall and seemed to have no hard bone structure but very long arms and fingers.
Shortly after viewing the dead bodies, Rev. Huffman was asked to pray over them. Upon doing so, he was escorted by military officials to a nearby location where he was sworn to secrecy and strongly warned to never discuss the crash with anyone. Huffman did not know what was told to others at the scene, but he was told, “This didn’t happen, you didn’t see this. This is national security and is to never to be talked about again.”
Given the large number of individuals present, it was highly likely the secret would eventually be revealed. And, although the Rev. Huffman intended to keep silent regarding his participation in the affair, he was not completely successful. Among those who eventually learned the secret were his wife, Floy, his granddaughter, Charlette, and the brother of Cape Girardeau County Sheriff Clarence Schade, who partially confirmed the story in a notarized, sworn affidavit.
In addition to the accounts of the UFO crash passed on to her by her grandmother, Charlette recalled one of the first situations in which she heard about it: “Well, the first awareness that I had of it (the dead bodies) is actually a picture that my father had and it was at a dinner party. And, I had heard rumors, and bits and pieces over conversations, but it was a picture, an old picture, because it had … it was like the old Kodaks, with little lines and scallops around it. There were two men holding up a non-human, is the best way I can describe it. (a) little entity, a little person who appeared to be about 4 feet tall. They had him underneath the armpits with arms outstretched on either side of him.” Unfortunately, that picture was not in Charlette’s possession, and UFO researchers have been unable to locate it.
UFO journalist B.J. Booth says of the Cape Girardeau story, “This case ends like many others but appears by all indications to be authentic. All who have come in contact with Charlette Mann have found her to be a trustworthy person who is not given to sensationalism, and she has sought no gain from her account.” Charlette Mann moved from Cape Girardeau to Tyler, Texas.
Based on his own analysis of the Cape Girardeau episode, noted ufologist Ryan Wood says one can “reasonably conclude there was a crash event. ... The implications of this case, if fully proven, are part of the larger picture. Namely, extraterrestrial visitors are real; and certain factions of the government have been hiding this fact since at least 1941.”
Wood also says: “The final resolution to the case is still out there. It may come in form of physical evidence, bits of wreckage, new witnesses, historical air photography, soil samples or archival research. All these fronts are being actively worked, and there is reason to predict success.”
For Ryan Wood’s in-depth analysis and extensive documentation of this case, Google “Evidence for a Crash Retrieval in Cape Girardeau.”

Best Loch Ness Monster Evidence...Lost? Creature Left Flesh On Boat’s Propeller After Collision
What may have been the best evidence that the Loch Ness Monster is indeed real was inadvertently destroyed almost 40 years ago, after a rented pleasure boat suffered a violent collision with an unknown object in Scotland’s vast and mysterious lake widely believed to house the bizarre sea creature.
One of the passengers on the rented boat, an elderly man, was so frightened by the collision with an unseen object that he suffered a heart attack and died shortly thereafter — making the unfortunate boater perhaps the only human fatality claimed by an encounter with the Loch Ness Monster.
The reported collision in 1978 was not even the first reported on the mist-enshrouded lake in the Scottish Highlands between a boat and the strange occupant of the 22 square-mile lake, which reaches depths of up to 755 feet. In 1943 a Royal Navy boat ran directly into what the boat’s commander described as “a very large animal… a living creature.”
But the 1978 collision could have yielded incontrovertible evidence of that the Loch Ness Monster exists, because the collision is said to have wounded the creature — which left large shards of its flesh on the boat’s propeller shaft.
Stanley Roberts, now 85, who owned the rental boat back in 1978, described the remnants of the monster that were attached to the underside of his boat as “found flesh and black skin an inch thick along the propshaft.”
But before he knew what had happened, workers who were repairing the damaged boat simply tossed the flesh into the water.
“The workers chiseled the flesh away and threw it into the Caledonian Canal,” Roberts recalled, in an interview last week with the Scotland Now news site. “I said you stupid b*******s. It would have proved that Nessie was here.”
Had the organic material been preserved, given DNA-reading techniques available with today’s technology, scientists would likely have been able to determine exactly what hit the boat — and as a result, finally learned what the fabled Loch Ness Monster actually is.
There have been countless sightings of “Nessie” since the 1930s, when the “Monster” first became a worldwide sensation. In 2012, a Loch Ness Monster researcher, George Edwards, took what he believes is the clearest photograph yet of a large, living creature in the lake’s waters. -Inquisitr
Has the famous woodchuck of 'Groundhog Day' fame ever managed to make an accurate prediction ?
It was the bane of Bill Murray's existence in the 1993 Harold Ramis movie, but despite being an unlikely premise the actual Groundhog Day ceremony is a real thing that still takes place at the beginning of February each year across the United States.
Punxsutawney Phil, the groundhog in the movie, continues to be part of the largest Groundhog Day celebration in Pennsylvania where large crowds still gather in anticipation of finding out whether or not spring is likely to arrive early.
According to the tradition, if the groundhog emerges and sees its own shadow then there will be six more weeks of winter whereas if it sees no shadow then the warmer weather will arrive sooner.
To determine just how accurate Punxsutawney Phil actually is at predicting the seasons a team at the Washington Post brought together and analyzed temperature statistics for the last 30 years.
What they found was that while Phil's predictions were correct more often than not for some areas of the country, the overall average temperature between the years in which he predicted a longer winter and the years in which he predicted an early spring varied by only a few degrees.
In other words Phil's predictions have boiled down to little more than random chance. - Live Science
Nearly 12 years after her body was found floating in a pool on a rural Valley Center compound called Angel’s Landing, Patricia Hughes’ death remains a mystery.
Some say the 26-year-old mother accidentally slipped and hit her head, drowning in an attempt to rescue her 2-year-old daughter from the water.
Some suggest she committed suicide.
Still others, including the Sedgwick County District Attorney’s Office, think she was killed – her head held beneath the water until she quit breathing – for $2 million in life insurance money.
The question will come to the fore this week as Daniel U. Perez heads to trial in Sedgwick County Court on 38 criminal charges, including first-degree premeditated murder in Hughes’ death.
The charges against the 55-year-old Perez – which also include rape, sodomy, sexual exploitation of a child, aggravated assault, criminal threat and directing that false information be put on life insurance and car credit applications – are associated with a communal lifestyle he led in Kansas with a group known as “the family.”
Perez has pleaded not guilty to the charges. Jury selection in the case is scheduled to begin Monday.
According to witnesses who testified at his preliminary hearing in June 2012, Perez lived on a 20-acre compound in the 9500 block on North Oliver, had no job and was the leader of a traveling entourage who lived off of life insurance benefits paid from the deaths of about a dozen others involved.
Perez directed the amounts and who received millions in payouts from the policies, according to testimony. But he never was himself listed as a beneficiary.
Perez, witnesses testified, had used the name Lou Castro. He was controlling and sometimes violent, they said, forcing girls and women to have sex against their will.
He had used false names and aliases since 1997, when he was convicted of child sex crimes in Texas but fled before sentencing, according to court documents.
After Hughes died on June 26, 2003, in the compound’s pool, the coroner ruled her death accidental. Her autopsy showed she suffered three blunt force injuries to her head.
Eight years later, a 20-year-old came forward with unsettling information: She said the young mother had been murdered.
Series of deaths
According to testimony from witnesses in June 2012, those surrounding Perez at the Angel’s Landing compound believed the 5-foot-6 man was “a seer” who could foretell the future. He claimed to be hundreds of years old, to have three different persona and to need sex from someone pure, like young girls, to survive.
He is charged with multiple counts of sex acts with minors.
For years, the deaths of people in Kansas and other states who were associated with Perez’s communal “family” had raised questions. Hughes, a wife and mother, was one of about a dozen, according to court documents.
Others included Hughes’ husband, who was crushed to death by a car in South Dakota after a jack slipped; their child’s guardian, who met her death when her SUV swerved in front of a dump truck in Butler County; and a woman killed along with her 12-year-old daughter and her boyfriend in a plane crash in South Dakota. (Hughes received $700,000 in life insurance money from the plane crash victim.)
Like the others, Hughes’ death seemed nothing more than a tragic, unintended turn of fate. The official story was that she slipped and hit her head while rushing down a pool step to rescue her 2-year-old daughter, who had fallen in while they and a neighbor girl cleaned the pool.
Apparently, she did not know how to swim.
But then a grown woman told a detective who approached her in 2011 that she helped stage the drowning. She was 12 at the time.
The woman, whom The Eagle is not naming because she alleges she is a victim of sexual assault, testified in June 2012 that Perez foretold Hughes’ death about a week before it happened and enlisted her help. She said Hughes knew she would die on June 26, 2003, and kissed her daughter and offered reassurance that she would return after “crossing over” before she walked to the pool.
The woman in her testimony said Perez had ordered her to wait in a shop by the pool with Hughes’ 2-year-old daughter for 20 minutes, saying that he would retrieve her later and she would take the toddler and jump into the water. After some time, she heard splashing and thought she heard a scream, then Perez came in, the woman testified.
His forearms were wet but not his clothes, she said in 2012, and he seemed out of breath.
Hughes was in the shallow end of the pool when she took the toddler into the water, the woman testified.
As a girl, she told a 911 emergency operator that the 26-year-old mother had slipped and that she was able to rescue her daughter, but she couldn’t pull Hughes out of the pool.
Perez, she testified, had directed her to do so. He was at a car dealership when paramedics arrived.
Hughes’ death was reclassified as a homicide on Sept. 1, 2011. Perez was booked into Sedgwick County Jail about 4 1/2 months later; he remains there on $2.1 million bond.
In court in 2012, then-Deputy Sedgwick County District Attorney Marc Bennett argued that a person can’t drown himself or herself. Defense attorney Alice Osburn suggested that perhaps Hughes committed suicide.
District Judge Joseph Bribiesca is scheduled to preside over Perez’s trial. Bennett, now the district attorney, said Sunday the proceedings likely will last more than a week. - Kansas Eagle

Power Plant explosion in Escanaba, Michigan accompanied by strange beam of light! (Video)
Power Plant explosion in Escanaba, Michigan accompanied by strange beam of light! (Video)
Lately strange things happen in the skies. We see a lot of strange unnatural fireballs, strange objects falling from the skies, flashing spheres and laser beams in space recorded by the ISS Live stream HD cam.
And now, Escanaba residents awoke Monday to find themselves without power after a mysterious explosion at a power plant in Escanaba, Michigan that has left much of the area in the dark.
According to Allnewspipeline, the explosion was accompanied by a strange light that one reader said "shot straight down from the heavens." While the local media attempted to explain away the light as an oncoming train, most readers weren't buying it. Read more

UFO mania: Giant Megaliths Found in Siberia Could Be Largest in the World
UFO mania: Giant Megaliths Found in Siberia Could Be Largest in the World
Found in Siberia Could Be Largest in the World
The word is starting to spread through websites that explore mysterious events and artifacts from history that megaliths found in Gornaya Shoria (Mount Shoria), Siberia, could be the largest in the world.
The first person to report this news was amateur researcher John Jensen, who had previously gained some attention for identifying unusual formations off the east coast of the United States. He came across photos recently taken of a team exploring the megaliths and information about the megaliths posted on Russian websites. One of the websites was that of Valery Uvarov, a Russian author interested in the Egyptian pyramids. The stones may be larger than the Baalbek stones in Lebanon, which are currently thought to be the largest used in an ancient structure. Comparing photos of both sites, with people standing next to the stones to provide a sense of scale, the largest pictured Gornaya Shoria stones seem a third or so bigger than the Baalbek stones, which weigh about 800 tons.
The average weight of stones used to build the Great Pyramid is about 2.5 tons. The Stonehenge megaliths are about 50 tons each. The stones at Gornaya Shoria are stacked about 130 feet (40 meters) high, according to Jensen. They appear to be carved into rectangular blocks, with some forming passageways.

NASA ponders the implications of the discovery of extraterrestrial life
NASA ponders the implications of the discovery of extraterrestrial life
February 4, 2015 - One of the big questions regarding the discovery of extraterrestrial life, even if it is an itty-bitty microbe, is what impact it would have on society. Some have suggested that people will freak out and religions will crumble. Others think the news will be met with a resounding, “meh.”
To examine the effects of the discovery of extraterrestrial life, whether it be a microbe, or a radio transmission from an advanced civilization, NASA has turned to one of their former chief historians, Steven Dick.
Dick is the current Baruch S. Blumberg NASA-Library of Congress Chair in Astrobiology. He is an astronomer, author, and from 2003 to 2009 served as NASA’s chief historian. Dick began his current position in late 2013, and was tasked with “examining historical impacts of astrobiology.” This includes, “working both individually and with other scholars to determine systematically the critical issues and optimal approaches to studying the societal impact of the discovery of microbial or intelligent extraterrestrial life.”
The later has been of particular interest to Dick. He has written several books on the topic. He hosted a recent Symposium on these issue as well. It was held in September at the Library of Congress, and was free and open to the public.
An interview with Dick was recently posted on the website of Astrobiology Magazine. He told them, “It’s very farsighted for NASA to fund a position like this. They have all their programs in astrobiology, they fund the scientists, but here they fund somebody to think about what the implications might be. It’s a good idea to do this, to foresee what might happen before it occurs.”
So what does Dick think might happen? Well, for starters, even if the discovery was only a microbe, Dick says, “it would have an effect on science, especially biology, by universalizing biology.” Dick continued, “We only have one case of biology on Earth. It’s all related. It’s all DNA-based. If we found an independent example on Mars or Europa, we have a chance of forming a universal biology.”
However, Dick also points out that such a discovery would be a long arduous process. “I’ve done a book about discovery in astronomy, and it’s an extended process,” Dick pointed out. “It’s not like you point your telescope and say, ‘Oh, I made a discovery.’ It’s always an extended process: You have to detect something, you have to interpret it, and it takes a long time to understand it. As for extraterrestrial life, the Mars rock showed it could take an extended period of years to understand it.”
The Mars rock Dick refers to is meteorite ALH84001. It was discovered in the Antarctic in 1984. After 10 years of study, scientists had determined it came from Mars. Then, in 1996, scientists declared that structures observed on the meteorite showed evidence of biological activity. The news that it was the first time we had found evidence of life on a planet other than our own was a pretty big deal. President Bill Clinton held a press conference, and the Senate Science, Technology and Space Subcommittee of the Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee held a hearings.
However, there were dissenting views. Many scientists came forward to express their opinions that the evidence observed in the rock could all have been formed without the presence of biological activity. The last congressional hearing, held on September 25, 1996, concluded that “more studies are needed and the only way this can be accomplished is by sending additional spacecraft to Mars to collect more samples.”
In essence, they called it a draw, and the debate continues.
Dick is also examining the effects of contact with more complex extraterrestrials, such as those that might contact us via radio signals. The Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) is monitoring the great void of space for those signals, should they exist, but what if they begin to receive messages?
“There is also the question of what I call astro-ethics,” Dick said. “How do you treat alien life? How do you treat it differently, ranging from microbes to intelligence? So we had a philosopher at our symposium talking about the moral status of non-human organisms, talking in relation to animals on Earth and what their status is in relation to us.”
Some of Dick’s colleagues, and fellow presenters at his Symposium at the Library of Congress, examined some of these issues in a film that recently premiered at the Sundance Film Festival. Meanwhile, Dick continues to look into these issues and plans on writing more books on the topic.

1500 year old bible found and nobody want's to know?!
1500 year old bible found and nobody want's to know?!
February 4, 2015 - If this is true and NOBODY can say it is not. All I ever hear from religion is "There is proof" So here you are, 'Proof' A book, pre-dates already to 500AD. If this book is real then it changes religion. But like ANY bible it will be scrutinised and called wrong and blasphemous. I am saying, if the Bibles of today are real, then this is real. If this new book is fake, they are all fake. I dislike what religion does to this planet. So for me I know it will hurt friends and family, but to all religious people reading this, you can't have your cake and eat it. This is either real or fake. I can hear it already "MUSLIM LIES" If this book is real, millions of people have been living a blind lie. But if this book is wrong, well I don't know how that can be. The Vatican have requested to see it. I will keep you updated. From my understanding carbon dating has been done a few times, and 1,500 years old.
A Bible which is reported to be at least 1500 years old was discovered in Turkey and inside it there is a Gospel of Barnabas. The book was moved by Turkish government to one of their museums by way of police escort. Barnabas was one of the disciples of Jesus Christ, and in the Gospel of Barnabas, it states that Christ was never crucified. It reads instead that he rose to heaven while alive and Judas was the one crucified instead. Additionally, this ancient Bible declares that Jesus was not the Son of God, but only a prophet who spoke the word of God. The book also calls the Apostle Paul “The Impostor”. In a press release that was sent out by the Turkish government, it said that the Bible was snatched from a mob of smugglers in a Mediterranean region operation. The report explained that the group was accused of trafficking antique relics, performing illegal archaeological digs, and being in the possession of explosives. The book itself is believed to be valued as high as $28 million.
According to religious experts and specialists located in Tehram, they believe the Bible is an original. It is written in gold letters, against loosely bound blackened leather in Aramaic, which is the language that Jesus would have spoken. It is thought that during the Council of Nicea that the Catholic Church chose which Gospels that appear in the regular Bible as it is known today. They would have tossed out the Gospel of Barnabas along with many others in favor of the four Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. There have been numerous supposed Biblical texts which have come to light over time, including the Dead Sea Gnostic Gospels. However this ancient Bible has especially seemed to brought worry to the Vatican.
What would something like this mean to any Christian based religions and their believers? It would cause a very tight spot. The Vatican has requested the Turkish authorities to let them look at the inside of the book within the Church. Now that the ancient Bible has been found and the contents released to the public, what will the Catholic church have to say about it? To believers of the Christian faith, this book will be considered a fraud and a fake, something to be ignored and forgotten about. To atheists, agnostics or people who are secular thinkers, they may wonder if the text is real or not. More than likely they will not even care.
As was mentioned above, the Vatican has made an authorized request to the Turkish government to have a look at the book. It was reportedly penned in Aramaic, which is a nearly dead language. It is only spoken in the modern world in a tiny village located near Damascus. It has been reported to the media that mere photocopies of the ancient Bible’s pages are being retailed for nearly $2 million. Along with that, the age, flawless construction, and the contents inside the ancient Bible are what make it so valuable. Repeating: a Bible which is reported to be at least 1500 years old was discovered in Turkey and inside it there is a Gospel of Barnabas. The book was moved by Turkish government to one of their museums by way of police escort. Barnabas was one of the disciples of Jesus Christ, and in the Gospel of Barnabas, it states that Christ was never crucified

10 Creepy Stories Of Encounters With Men In Black
10 Creepy Stories Of Encounters With Men In Black
Men in black have been popping up for awhile, usually whenever someone claims to have recently sighted a UFO. Shortly after each sighting, the person in question is visited by strange men who usually wear black suits, black ties, and white shirts.
The details and motives sometimes vary, but even stranger are the variations in the descriptions of the men in question. While some tales simply describe them as cold, aloof gentlemen wearing black suits, others say that they get an uncanny vibe from those who visit them. The stories tell of men who are unnaturally bald, men who talk in an almost robotic voice and wear lipstick over lipless mouths. Some suggest that they are from another world, disguising themselves as humans to learn our ways. Others believe that they are experimental cyborgs in the employ of the government. The truth behind the men in black is still shrouded in mystery, and we may never know the identity of these strange stalkers.
10. The Telepathic Encounter
A man known only as Larry claims that one night he was drifting off to sleep when he was contacted by a strange presence who communicated with him telepathically. This weird presence explained that he was not from Earth, but beyond that he gave no reason for contacting Larry. Somewhat skeptical, Larry asked the presence to provide some proof of its existence beyond simply sending thoughts into his head—he wanted a face-to-face meeting. The presence agreed to provide him with further proof—he would show up during the day when Larry was with his best friend.
Larry wasn’t sure what to make of the entire thing the next day, and while he continued on with life as usual, he obsessed about the dream for months afterward. Eventually, he caught up with his buddy at an Independence Day celebration at a nearby park. As Larry was talking with his friend, a black van pulled up nearby and two black-clad men got out. Two more similarly dressed men exited the van after them, but they did not appear to be entirely human in shape. The strange men sat down at a nearby picnic table, looked over at Larry, and then reentered their van and left just as mysteriously as they had arrived. Larry never found out why they had contacted him.
Albert Bender was the director of an amateur organization called the International Flying Saucer Bureau and he believed that he had finally blown the lid off the whole flying saucer thing. He had his own publication called Space Review in which he planned to spread his discovery. After compiling all of his collected wisdom on the matter, he mailed it to a friend to look it over before he unveiled it to the world. Unfortunately, this attracted the attention of the men in black, who decided that it was time to pay him a visit and prevent him from leaking all their secrets to the world.
A couple days later, Bender was on his bed when he suddenly had a dizzy spell. He noticed several dark shapes in the room with him that slowly materialized into men in black suits with black hats obscuring their eyes and faces. He noticed in particular that the men’s eyes lit up with an incredible glow and they seemed capable of speaking directly to his mind. They made him promise to destroy his findings and cease all of his research into the subject—Bender was so scared that he was only too happy to comply.
8. Alleged Men In Black Caught On Video
A video was captured of two men in black who allegedly entered a hotel in Canada and started asking questions about one of the hotel employees. The stories say that the employee in question had recently seen a UFO and had told others about his experience. Not long after, these two men showed up at his place of employment. Luckily for him, he was not working during their visit.
According to witness accounts, the men were asking people not only about the employee in question, but also about conspiracies in general. They had no eyebrows or eyelashes, strange, hypnotic eyes, bald heads possibly disguised by wigs, and clothes that seemed to be meant for fitting in, but somehow were just enough out of place to raise alarm bells. These two men were definitely caught on camera—the question is whether they were clandestine government agents, beings from another world in disguise, or simply the product of a clever hoax. Regardless of the answer, there is something hair-raising about two men in suits walking into a hotel in the middle of the day and asking strange questions about one of the employees, then leaving as mysteriously as they came.
7. A Postal Worker’s Terrifying Experience
An anonymous postal worker from Washington, DC was out delivering mail one day when he decided to stop and eat an apple. When he was finished, he looked around for a trash can and, finding none, decided to just toss it onto the ground. Before he could leave the area, a security guard approached and lectured him for his negligence, explaining that the entire building and surrounding grounds were under constant surveillance. The postal worker thought about this, along with the fact that he already had to be buzzed in to deliver the mail, and began thinking that there was more to this place than met the eye.
Awhile later, he was out on his usual delivery run when he came by the foreboding building again. This time, he saw three men walking toward the building, except they didn’t appear to be like men. They waddled when they walked instead of putting one foot in front of the other, and they were abnormally thin—it was this thinness more than anything that frightened him.
Though shaken, he decided to soldier on and march his way up to the door to deliver the mail. When he entered, he found a group of men who began questioning him about what he had seen moments earlier. He was flabbergasted and unable to respond until one of the strange beings who he had seen earlier sidled up near him, at which point he felt even more terrified. After more grilling by the men in the room, and after repeating that he had seen nothing at all, he was allowed to leave. His mail route was changed shortly afterward.
6.The Man In Black Who Liked To Hang Out
In most stories, the men in black are malevolent, intimidating entities who only appear briefly after someone sees something they weren’t supposed to. But that’s not always the case. In one account, a woman claims that when she was a child her engineer father was regularly visited by a man in black who went simply by the name Lev. This man was completely bald, which she noted was very odd during her time. When she went to shake his hand, the skin was impossibly smooth, as if he had no hair whatsoever on his body.
The man constantly wore his trademark dark suit, glasses, and hat, even on scorching summer days. He was known for hanging around several engineers in the area, and her father always visited him in a little house near the local supermarket. The woman who tells the story says that she is sure her father knew Lev was an alien, although she never figured out what they talked about during their meetings.
5. A Visit To The State Department
An anonymous man related a tale of a strange experience he had while sightseeing in Washington, DC. Without realizing that there really wasn’t anything of interest for a civilian to see, he wandered into the State Department building. He meandered through the lobby for awhile until security became suspicious of him and headed over to usher him out of the building. However, before they could do so, he saw something that he would never forget.
The elevator opened and five men got out. Two of them were very businesslike and wore gray suits that were formal, but hardly remarkable beyond that. What drew his attention were the other three men in their escort. These men wore black hats pulled low over their eyes and long, black trench coats, even though it was the middle of the summer. The appearance seemed so strange that our observer could only describe it as “cartoonish.”
As they were walking by, one of the strange men lost his footing on the marble floor and fell to the ground, dropping his portfolio in the process. Upon helping him up, he noticed that the man’s legs seemed extraordinarily weak and it felt like there was a thick layer of wool underneath his suit. Even stranger, the man’s expression never appeared to change at all, despite falling onto the hard marble floor. Near the dropped portfolio, he found a small coin with words written in no language he could identify—one side depicted a man with features like a wolf and the other had navigational lines and two crescent moons.
Normally, the sneaky men who appear after UFO sightings are dressed all in black, but in one tale from Essex, England, they chose gray suits. William Shearer claimed to have seen a UFO, and a few days later two men showed up at his house. One of the men stayed by the car and maintained an intimidating presence while the other grilled Shearer about his experience. On this first visit, however, the man seemed more concerned with gaining permission to enter Shearer’s home than the answers Shearer was giving him.
The men spoke in a strange voice that seemed flat and expressionless and had extremely pale skin. This, along with the oddly intimidating behavior, was enough to scare Shearer and he chose not to let them into his house. Unfortunately for him, his experience was not yet at an end. The men ominously proclaimed that they would visit him again and, not long after, they turned up at his work. They made it clear that they wanted to talk about UFOs and once again asked permission to enter. When Shearer turned them down again, the men vanished and never returned—although Shearer believes that since then his phone has been tapped.
3. The Mystery Of The Loch
Loch Ness has always been a place of mystery and intrigue. Many people believe that the depths of the lake contain a primordial creature from the early days of the Earth and some have dedicated their lives to proving its existence. One man named Frederick Holiday was well known for being passionate about the study of cryptozoology and had spent years looking for evidence of creatures in the lake. Perhaps paranormal phenomena are more connected then we might have thought, because while out investigating the lake for the Loch Ness monster, Holiday had an experience that he would never forget.
Holiday looked up on a hill near the lake and spotted a strange man dressed in a black suit. While it wasn’t remarkable for people to sightsee along the lake, Holiday was struck by the fact that the man seemed to be looking directly at him. He was profoundly disturbed and reported feeling malevolence from the being that was staring him down. Before he could do anything, there was a bizarre noise and the man was gone as mysteriously as he had appeared. Just one year later, Holiday was back at the Loch for further studies when he had a heart attack—as he was being carried to the ambulance, he passed over the exact place where the strange man had been standing.
2. The Angry MIB
A professor of folklore named Peter Rojcewicz told of an experience that occurred one night in the college library while he was reading a book on UFOs that had been recommended to him by a colleague. He was just relaxing in a chair and reading his book when he noticed what appeared to be a leg and a shoe out of the corner of his eye. Before he knew it, there was a man sitting in a chair in front of him. The man immediately asked Rojcewicz about the book he was reading and questioned him on whether he had seen UFOs or was at all interested in the phenomenon.
When the professor stated that he wasn’t really that interested in the subject to begin with and was only reading the book to satisfy the suggestion of a colleague, the man became enraged and angrily asked him how he could not be interested in “the most important facts of the century.” Seemingly satisfied that the professor was not going to dig into the world of UFOs, the man left, but not before telling the professor to “go well on his purpose.” However, while it seems like this would be the end of it, it’s here that the story takes a turn for the extra creepy.
After the encounter, Rojcewicz got up to walk around the library. However, none of the librarians were anywhere to be seen. The same went for the guards and all the patrons. In fact, as far as he could tell, the library was completely deserted except for him. The professor returned to his chair in an attempt to gather his wits. In about an hour, according to the professor, he decided to get up and look around again—and this time he found that everything was as it should be.
1. The Stranded Photographer
Back in the 1960s, Jim Templeton took a photo of his daughter near Burgh Marsh, and before long it made big news. You might have heard of this photo as the Solway Firth Spaceman, which captures what looks like an unexplained figure in an astronaut outfit in the background. Stranger then the photo is the experience that Templeton had shortly after taking it. He was at work when a car arrived with two men who claimed to be working for the government. When asked, they refused to identify themselves beyond the codes #9 and #10. Even though their badges pointed to no specific government agency, Templeton agreed to get in the car with them and drive back to the Marsh to answer their questions.
The questions were pretty strange. Apart from the expected ones, like where it had happened and whether there were any other witnesses, they also wanted to know about the weather conditions and the behavior of the animals in the area. Templeton told the men that the domestic animals in the area had seemed scared on the day in question and had huddled together for protection.
It was after stating this that the men became much more hostile toward Templeton and started questioning the validity of his story. Of course, Templeton would not go to all this trouble simply to admit defeat, even if his story wasn’t entirely honest, and claimed that he was indeed telling the truth as far as he knew it. The men seemed to be unconvinced and headed back to their car. They drove off and simply left the baffled photographer in the dust to find his own way home...

‘I have some stuff you might be interested in…’: Edward Snowden and the ultimate secret
‘I have some stuff you might be interested in…’: Edward Snowden and the ultimate secret
When four years ago Wikileaks published 250,000 US state department cables dating back to the 1960s, a believer in ET visitations asked why, in the great mass of data, there was not one major UFO secret.
NSA whistle-blower Edward Snowden (credit: The Guardian)
Soon afterwards, during a live Q&A, Wikileaks supremo Julian Assangeexplained that ‘many weirdoes email us about UFOs’ but none of the stories they supply satisfied their twin publishing criteria, which was: ‘that the documents not be self-authored; that they be original’.
Now former NSA contractor Edward Snowden has upped the ante with a massive leak of two million top secret documents. Snowden’s leak to The Guardianand New York Times has been described by Daniel Ellsberg of Pentagon Papers fame as ‘the most significant leak’ of classified material in US history.
Yet Snowden’s revelations have failed to produce the ‘smoking gun’ that would prove the alien presence on Earth, the real ultimate secret if you buy into the UFO myth.
Even if you don’t it cannot be denied that if such knowledge really existed it should merit at least a tiny reference in the files of the world’s most powerful intelligence agency.
The revelation that flying saucers have landed and governments are in contact with alien intelligences would make the ongoing debates about mass surveillance and the balance between national security and information privacy seem like an afterthought.
So far not a single authentic piece of paper, memo or PowerPoint has emerged from either Wikileaks or Snowden-gate to support this widely held modern myth.
The UFO industry has struggled to explain this odd omission and its corporate arm, the so-called ‘exopolitics’ movement led by the Paradigm Research Group, has continued on its merry way organising mock congressional hearings as if nothing in the world had changed.
Then, early in the new year someone decided it was time to stitch the breaking Snowden story together with the UFO conspiracy rumours. Snowden fled to Russia in June 2013 and has been granted temporary asylum.
In January what the Washington Post describes as ‘an ultra-fringe conspiracy website’, www.whatdoesitmean.com published a story based upon what it claimed was a FSB dossier summarising NSA secrets handed over to the Russian security service by Snowden.
The author of this piece, one ‘Sorcha Faal’, claimed its contents provided ‘incontrovertible proof’ that ‘an alien/extra-terrestrial intelligence agenda’ is driving US foreign policy. The dossier said the US government has been secretly run by a ‘shadow government’ of extra-terrestrials since the Second World War.
No good UFO story is complete without a Nazi element so the hoax included the ‘fact’ that Hitler built up his U-boat fleet ‘with alien assistance’, updating the familiar ancient astronauts meme to WW2. According to the story, after backing the wrong side in WW2 the aliens are now holed up at Area 51 with President Obama as their willing dupe and are plotting to use the omnipresent NSA to take over the world.
Hoax documents have always been a favourite trope in UFOlogy and the fake MJ12 papers, offered as proof of the Roswell incident during the ‘80s, provide a useful template. Further evidence? Sorcha Faal is so obviously a made-up name and whatdoesitmean is a notorious source of fake stories.
Only the gullible or credulous were likely to pay any attention to nonsense published on ‘an ultra-fringe conspiracy website’. But some have grounds to suspect it is run by someone spreading disinformation on behalf of one or more intelligence agencies. It is equally possible that ‘Faal’ is simply having fun by publishing nonsense that he or she knows will be swallowed by those want to believe it.
If there is any truth in the disinformation theory, on this occasion the spooks scored a direct hit. Soon after its appearance ‘the semi-official Iranian news agency’, FARS, swallowed the hoax whole. On 12 January Fars published a breathless regurgitation of the FSB story, faithfully referenced to its source: whatdoesitmean.com.
How the Iranian news-agency broke the Nazi/aliens story
They also repeated Faal’s claim that the contents of the Russian dossier had been confirmed by the former Canadian defence minister, Paul Hellyer, during a live interview on Russian TV on 30 December 2013. The 90-year-old, FARS claimed, had been consulted by the FSB during his Russian trip on the accuracy of the alien story.
Hellyer’s faith in aliens includes his claim that ‘at least four species of aliens’ have been visiting Earth for thousands of years. These include ‘Nordic blondes’ and Tall Whites that live on earth ‘and are working with the United States government’.
So far so weird. Hellyer can’t provide any proof, but neither could Lord Hill Norton or any of the other cranky ‘top people’ who have swallowed the wilder products of the UFO industry whole in their dotage.
But in this case Hellyer, by talking about ‘Tall Whites’ and aliens secretly running the US government since the ’50s, played right into the hands of the person or persons responsible for concocting the Nazi alien hoax.
Both Hellyer and Disclosure spokesman Stephen Bassett have since published disclaimers, blaming what they believe is a CIA plot to smear them. In this case they may be right. The spooks have form in using belief in UFOs and other fringe phenomena to discredit politicians and other targets. In 2001, the renegade SIS officer Richard Tomlinson claimed that during the run-up to the 1992 elections for the UN Secretary General, the CIA ran a smear campaign against the Egyptian candidate, Boutros Boutros Ghali, who they claimed ‘was a believer in the existence of UFOs and extra-terrestrial life’ (The Independent, 1 June 2001).
The smear was allegedly run by planting false stories in the media, much as Sorcha Faal tries to do.This operation failed as Boutros-Ghali was elected. But in the Fars case it seems to me that Hellyer and the UFO believers were roped in as cannon-fodder.
The real target is Snowden himself and the intention is to portray him as unbalanced and a traitor who passes secrets to the Russians . According to Luke Harding’s 2014 book The Snowden Fileshis haul of NSA documents is protected by several layers of sophisticated encryption and has not fallen into the hands of his hosts.
I have to agree with Max Fisher of the Washington Post, who described this hall of mirrors as ‘highly entertaining’. And until new information emerges I await a convincing answer to the question I posed in 2010: ‘where are the UFO whistle-blowers?’ Sorry, Paul Hellyer doesn’t count.
The event of first contact with an intelligent extraterrestrial would be explored in a new fictional film under the guise of a documentary movie.
The Visit attempts to describe the actual concerns to address the first contact situation in a very realistic manner. The documentary format of the film offers a very authentic element to the scenario that allows to make this natural feel.
In an effort to present the greatest realistic element, the film uses real people who are likely to be the ones to get involve with a first-contact scenario. Government officials, military personnel, and scientists made appearances in this film, including Mazlan Othman, the director of the UN Office for Outer Space Affairs.
According to the official description of the movie, the question is not about the possibility of it to happen but when it will going to happen as humans continue to send signals into outer space to announce their existence to other civilizations for many years now. The film promises to present chillingly believable situation of first contact on Earth with unprecedented access from military advisors to Director of the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs, and from experts at NASA’s International Space University to researchers at Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence Institute.
While many believe that first contact already happened a long time ago, and in fact extraterrestrials are already among humans, the official word still maintains that first contact has yet to happen. This issue is also discussed ranging from government reaction to the cultural impact.
The Visit premiered at the Sundance Film Festival on January 28.
Scientists from the Buckingham Centre for Astrobiology have found a tiny metal orb that they believe is extraterrestrial in origin.
It follows findings that DNA capable of inserting itself into living creatures and replicating can exist in harsh space conditions. A tiny ‘plasmid’, a circular strand of DNA used in genetic engineering, was sent into space from Sweden in 2011 on the exterior of a TEXUS-49 rocket. After enduring 1,000C heat it was found to still be intact and with its biological properties when it returned to Earth
The mysterious orb which is about the width of a human hair has filamentous life on its outer casing and also has a strange biological material leaking out from its core.
The lead scientist of the team who discovered the biological entity claims that it may have been sent by an intelligent extraterrestrial civilization possibly for the purpose of seeding alien life on Earth.
Professor Chandra Wickramasinghe director of the Buckingham Centre for Astrobiology said it is further proof of alien life. However the latest finding, by Professor Milton Wainwright and his team from the University of Sheffield and the University of Buckingham Centre for Astrobiology, could reveal a much more sinister purpose. It could have been deliberately engineered and sent to Earth to infect the planet.
Professor Wainwright said the structure is made from the metals titanium and vanadium with a “gooey” biological liquid oozing from its centre. He said there are several theories as to where it came from, the first being it is a complete microorganism programmed to propagate alien life on Earth.
BEST NIGHT TIME PHOTOS OF AN ALIEN CRAFT OVER MASSACHUSETTS
DECEMBER 11, 2006 ……. LYNN MASSACHUSETTS
WITNESS STATEMENT: My kids and I saw this incredible UFO in the eastern sky on Dec 11th at around 5 pm. No sound just moving back forth up and down then exited. One picture is enhanced with false color clearly showing the dome top above the bottom lights. The pictures are from a digital camera and not re-touched at all, other than brightness and contrast and false color. This is the Single best UFO photo ever! Two reasons- Its extremely crisp, and it was taken in the dark of night with a fairly recently manufactured DIGITAL Camera, You see, I am a photographer by trade and the ccd’s of most newer digital cameras have the ability to pick-up nearly-visible and invisible light. Can you guess where that beautiful blue lies in the spectrum??,
Yup that’s right- UV If you take the image and adjust the brightness and contrast, you will not see a dome over a structure, you will see a perfect sphere with three glowing energy tracers (for lack of a better word) These energy tracers are proof positive that whatever this thing is, its generating ultraviolet radiation and if you look closely, the “tracers” seem to be rotating counter-clockwise and slightly over-lapping. I’m totally floored by this, please put this out to your readership and let them run with the ball, thanks. The witness seems to think it is a domed disk, probably because for most people that’s what UFOs are supposed to look like. But the magnifications of his photos tell an interesting story. The 2 photographs show an oval/egg-shaped UFO (which is one of the common configurations seen near the ground) flying with the long axis vertical, with a noticeable luminous air-ionization around the underside.
This illuminated and illuminating sheath of atmosphere around the UFO is a sheath of ionized and excited air molecules { also called a “plasma” in science.}
One of the big questions regarding the discovery of extraterrestrial life, even if it is an itty-bitty microbe, is what impact it would have on society. Some people have suggested that people will freak out and religions will crumble. Others think the news will be met with a resounding, “meh.”
Steven Dick (Credit: NASA)
To examine the effects of the discovery of extraterrestrial life, whether it be a microbe, or a radio transmission from an advanced civilization, NASA has turned to one of their former chief historians, Steven Dick.
Dick is the current Baruch S. Blumberg NASA-Library of Congress Chair in Astrobiology. He is an astronomer, author, and from 2003 to 2009 served as NASA’s chief historian. Dick began his current position in late 2013, and was tasked with “examining historical impacts of astrobiology.” This includes, “working both individually and with other scholars to determine systematically the critical issues and optimal approaches to studying the societal impact of the discovery of microbial or intelligent extraterrestrial life.”
The later has been of particular interest to Dick. He has written several books on the topic. He hosted a recent Symposium on these issue as well. It was held in September at the Library of Congress, and was free and open to the public.
Steven Dick’s latest book on Astrobology. Published in 2005.
An interview with Dick was recently posted on the website of Astrobiology Magazine. He told them, “It’s very farsighted for NASA to fund a position like this. They have all their programs in astrobiology, they fund the scientists, but here they fund somebody to think about what the implications might be. It’s a good idea to do this, to foresee what might happen before it occurs.”
So what does Dick think might happen? Well, for starters, even if the discovery was only a microbe, Dick says, “it would have an effect on science, especially biology, by universalizing biology.” Dick continued, “We only have one case of biology on Earth. It’s all related. It’s all DNA-based. If we found an independent example on Mars or Europa, we have a chance of forming a universal biology.”
However, Dick also points out that such a discovery would be a long arduous process. “I’ve done a book about discovery in astronomy, and it’s an extended process,” Dick pointed out. “It’s not like you point your telescope and say, ‘Oh, I made a discovery.’ It’s always an extended process: You have to detect something, you have to interpret it, and it takes a long time to understand it. As for extraterrestrial life, the Mars rock showed it could take an extended period of years to understand it.”
The Mars rock Dick refers to is meteorite ALH84001. It was discovered in the Antarctic in 1984. After 10 years of study, scientists had determined it came from Mars. Then, in 1996, scientists declared that structures observed on the meteorite showed evidence of biological activity. The news that it was the first time we had found evidence of life on a planet other than our own was a pretty big deal. President Bill Clinton held a press conference, and the Senate Science, Technology and Space Subcommittee of the Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee held a hearings.

However, there were dissenting views. Many scientists came forward to express their opinions that the evidence observed in the rock could all have been formed without the presence of biological activity. The last congressional hearing, held on September 25, 1996, concluded that “more studies are needed and the only way this can be accomplished is by sending additional spacecraft to Mars to collect more samples.”
Dick is also examining the effects of contact with more complex extraterrestrials, such as those that might contact us via radio signals. The Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) is monitoring the great void of space for those signals, should they exist, but what if they begin to receive messages?
“There is also the question of what I call astro-ethics,” Dick said. “How do you treat alien life? How do you treat it differently, ranging from microbes to intelligence? So we had a philosopher at our symposium talking about the moral status of non-human organisms, talking in relation to animals on Earth and what their status is in relation to us.”
Some of Dick’s colleagues, and fellow presenters at his Symposium at the Library of Congress, examined some of these issues in a film that recently premiered at the Sundance Film Festival. Meanwhile, Dick continues to look into these issues and plans on writing more books on the topic.
NASA werkt aan een helikopterdrone die Mars zal verkennen vanuit de lucht. Door de Rode Planeet vanuit de lucht te observeren zou de ruimtevaartmaatschappij tot interessante nieuwe inzichten kunnen komen.
De drone wordt momenteel nog ontwikkeld door NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), dat zich bezighoudt met het maken van onbemande robots. De drone zal ongeveer een kilo wegen en 1,1 meter breed zijn.
Op Mars hebben alleen nog maar rijdende voertuigen, zoals de Curiosity, rondgereden. Maar het zicht van zulke marsrovers is beperkt tot de camera's aan boord en de beelden van ruimtevoertuigen die om Mars heen draaien.
De drone zal niet zelfstandig rondvliegen op Mars. Het idee is dat de drone de buurt rondom rijdende voertuigen verkent, zodat er sneller kan worden bepaald welke plekken op de Rode Planeet het onderzoeken waard zijn. Zo kunnen er snellere efficiëntere routes worden uitgestippeld, en kan de afstand die marsrovers per dag afleggen worden verdrievoudigd, aldus de Amerikaanse ruimtevaartorganisatie.
De Amerikaanse ruimtevaartorganisatie experimenteert met verschillende manieren om het onderzoek op Mars te verbeteren. Zo zal NASA ook Microsofts holografische bril Hololens gaan gebruiken om virtueel rond te lopen op de planeet.
videoOnze eigen nietigheid is moeilijk in woorden uit te drukken als je naar het universum om heen kijkt. Om dat toch enigszins te kunnen vatten, schieten creatieve YouTube-gebruikers te hulp.
Begin januari publiceerde het Amerikaanse ruimteagentschap NASA de scherpste foto tot dusver van de Andromedanevel, afkomstig van de Hubble-ruimtetelescoop. De foto geeft een fantastisch beeld van ruim 100 miljoen sterren in Andromeda.
Toch kan je met zulke cijfers de onmetelijkheid van zo'n sterrenstelsel moeilijk bevattelijk voorstellen. Nieuws- en analysewebsite Vox stootte op een YouTube-filmpje dat dat, op basis van die foto, wel probeert te doen. En het resultaat mag er zijn. Dankzij de bezwerende soundtrack kan u zich even helemaal onderdompelen in de grootsheid van ons heelal.
Het is overigens niet de eerste keer dat YouTube-gebruikers dat proberen. Hieronder nog enkele mooie filmpjes die inhaken op weidsheid van het universum. Zoals deze twee:

Oranje bollen wel degelijk buitenaards ( Video )
Oranje bollen wel degelijk buitenaards ( Video )
We hebben de laatste jaren een geweldige toename meegemaakt van het fenomeen oranje en/of witte bollen in de lucht.
Een verklaring hebben we nog steeds niet, hoewel er nu misschien een tipje van de sluier wordt opgelicht door de ervaring van Dr. Steven Greer over wie wij al eerder hebben geschreven.
Kijkend naar wat er afgelopen week gebeurde met Dr. Greer en een groepje mensen op het strand van Vero in Florida, kunnen we alleen maar constateren dat het verschijnsel oranje en/of witte bollen inderdaad van buitenaardse oorsprong is.
Voordat we naar het strand van Vero gaan, eerst wat achtergrondinformatie over wat Dr. Greer noemt het CE5 protocol.
CE staat voor Close Encounters (ontmoeting met buitenaardsen) en de 5 betekent een ontmoeting van de vijfde soort.
Het grote verschil met CE1 t/m 4 is dat we hier praten over buitenaards contact dat voor de mens veelal passief is en door buitenaardsen is geïnitieerd.
CE5 contact komt tot stand op basis van wederzijdse communicatie in de vorm van zaken zoals telepathie en meditatie.
In de volgende vrij korte video legt Dr. Greer iets meer uit en ook over hoe het voor hem allemaal begon met een bijna dood ervaring (BDE) in zijn jonge jaren.
De afgelopen week toog Dr. Greer met een klein groepje mensen naar het strand van Vero in Florida om te proberen via het CE5 protocol contact te maken met buitenaardse entiteiten.
Wat je dan ziet gebeuren, is fenomenaal te noemen. Vanuit het niets verschijnen twee ruimteschepen in de vorm van oranje bollen, zoals te zien op onderstaande foto:
Het is werkelijk prachtig hoe het mogelijk blijkt om op basis van wederzijdse communicatie dit soort verschijningen tot stand te brengen. Wat dan ook betekent dat het mogelijk is voor de mens om zelf actief mee te werken aan buitenaards contact.
Misschien is het nu een kwestie dat zij zichzelf in grote getale zullen laten zien zodat wij ook zelf de nodige moeite doen om met hen te communiceren.
Dat het kan, bewijst Dr. Greer in de onderstaande video:
A curious individual found what appeared to be a metallic ship on Mars. An anonymous witness states that JPL has just completed its upgrade of MSLs software and announced that science can continue.
According to the witness, the word science may have different meaning when it comes to the exploration of Mars by JPL.
Referring to an object on Mars’ surface that look like a hubcap, the witness believes that NASA tried to hide a metallic UFO by altering the image using an editing software, such as Photoshop. The witness alleged NASA of cover up by obscuring the UFO with artificial rust pixel.
After removing the artificial rust pixel, the witness claimed to have seen a metallic spaceship on Martian surface. The witness believes that the rover encountered the mysterious ship but could not detect it with any of its so-called science equipment. The witness adds that the rover might have been busy drilling again and failing to notice the spaceship.
Do you believe that NASA has been hiding something related to aliens or extraterrestrials on the Red Planet?
Every so often, a UFO sighting occurs that is more interesting for what it tells us about our own government than for what it tells us about the UFO itself. The UFO event over Chicago’s O’Hare Airport in 2006 in one such example. The short encounter was rather unremarkable, as UFO sightings go, but the reaction of the airline and the FAA was anything but ordinary, suggesting some type of cover-up between the implicated authorities. What’s more, the sighting reminds us that even nearly 40 years after the US government disavowed all responsibility for investigating UFOs, there are still many parties secretly involved in keeping UFO activity out of the public eye.
The hunt for alien civilisations may need a rethink. A new paper argues that the signals we're listening for might not be the ones ET would choose.
Historically, SETI – the search for extraterrestrial intelligence – involves scanning the sky for radio signals that another civilization is deliberately sending. The simplest would be a constant blast in all directions, but in a narrow range of frequencies, similar to early radio broadcasts – like a constant hum that would tell a listener it is artificial. From light years away, we would not be able to get any other information – all we would be able to tell from Earth is that a signal was there and where it was coming from, not what it says.
But David Messerschmitt at the University of California, Berkeley points out that such a continuous signal would take a tremendous amount of energy. Assuming aliens have utility bills, he says, they would use a different strategy.
They would also probably want to say something more than "we are here" by adding information to the signal. All attempts to send messages to ET from Earth have contained information, sometimes a lot of it. One of the most famous, the Arecibo message sent in 1974, which encoded details about humans, DNA, the solar system and more.

"All our discussions about transmitting ourselves include information, and how to encode it such that ET can understand our message and what to include in the message," Messerschmitt says.
To do this most efficiently, instead of a constant, narrow-band signal, Messerschmitt argues that ET would beep out short bursts in a wider range of frequencies – a broadband signal. This would take less energy to transmit, and could encode information.
Current SETI searches are not designed to pick up information in that kind of signal, notes Seth Shostak, director of the Center for SETI Research at the SETI Institute in California.
"The problem is that… encoding a message; means that any signal would vary quickly," Shostak says. "To see such variations – to get the information in the signal – requires having enough sensitivity to see changes in a 10th or 100th of a millionth of a second. That requires antennas with collecting areas maybe 10,000 times larger than necessary to detect a steady signal." No such antennas currently exist that would pick up the variations more than a few light years away.
But Messerschmitt thinks there's a workaround. Existing software, such as that used for the SETI@Home project, which processes millions of signals using idle home computers, could be adapted to extract information from a signal. SETI@Home looks at many channels at once seeking narrowband signals, but it could be programmed to look for broadband ones instead.
He doesn't think this means the current approach to SETI should be halted, but rather expanded to also look for this alternative form of signal.
"I would not advocate putting all our eggs in one basket," says Messerschmitt. "We really don't know what ET is up to."
The Canal Winchester, OH, witness first saw a bright group of multicolored lights about 8:05 p.m. on January 25, 2015. Pictured: Canal Winchester, OH. (Credit: Google)
An Ohio witness at Canal Winchester reported watching a 50-foot-tall, cylinder-shaped UFO nearly land in his back yard that was soon joined by a group of similar-shaped objects, according to testimony in Case 62937 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The witness was leaving a relative’s home after a family celebration when the first object was seen about 8:05 p.m. on January 25, 2015.
“I walked out the front door of the house and saw a bright, multicolored group of lights speeding toward me,” the witness stated. “I thought it must be an aircraft in trouble. I started screaming as the craft came into view seemingly instantly.”
The object hovered at the ground level and was described as a thin jar, but was easily 50 feet tall. Pictured: Canal Winchester, OH. (Credit: Google)
The witness described the object.
“It was shaped like a thin jar, but was easily 50 feet tall. It hovered very closely to the ground and the grass seemed to be pulled toward it instead of being pushed away. The grass wasn’t wavering though.”
The object then emitted a sound that affected the witness.
“All of a sudden a dull hum hit me and I couldn’t breathe. Then at least 40 or so similar-looking, smaller craft burst into the scene where they seemed to be very oddly chasing the larger craft.”
The witness then observed the smaller crafts moving inside the larger craft.
“The larger craft sucked the smaller crafts inside and then zipped off with a loud zoom or whoosh. It kind of sounded like a really loud dog bark.”
The witness stated that about 40 similar-looking, but smaller craft, also appeared and were sucked inside the larger craft. Pictured: Canal Winchester, OH. (Credit: Wikimedia Commons)
No images or videos were included with the MUFON report, which was filed on January 28, 2015. Ohio MUFON Field Investigator Rob Mercer is investigating.
Canal Winchester is a city in Fairfield and Franklin counties, population 7,101.
Please remember that most UFO sightings can be explained as something natural or man-made. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.
After reading Linda Molton Howes’ article ‘U.S. Navy flight engineer saw silver discs and entrance to alleged E.t. and Human collaboration in Antartica’ (EBE’s ‘Extraterrestrial Biological Entities’ working together with and interacting with Scientists at/around the Beardmore Glacier at the South Pole) I started to check this area at the South Pole on Google Earth.
Surprisingly, if it is not a software bug, Google Earth has blurred out the whole area around the Beardmore Glacier.
Despite the whole area is blurred out, I managed to check a small area.
I found several strange objects in this particular area. I’m not saying all objects are real and we need more proof, but no doubt, strange things are happening there at the Beardmore Glacier.
Some Earthlike Alien Planets May Begin as 'Mini-Neptunes'
Some Earthlike Alien Planets May Begin as 'Mini-Neptunes'
by Mike Wall, Space.com Senior Writer

Some Earthlike alien worlds may have looked a lot more like miniature versions of Neptune when they were born.
Frigid "mini-Neptune" exoplanets that take shape relatively far from red dwarfs — stars smaller and dimmer than the sun — could be dragged inward over time, eventually losing most of their thick gaseous atmospheres and ending up in spots warm enough for life as we know it to survive, a new study suggests.
Such stripped, rocky "habitable evaporative cores" (HECs) may be common around red dwarfs, which make up about 75 percent of all stars in the Milky Way galaxy, researchers said. [10 Exoplanets That Could Host Alien Life]
"Future research will have to address just how likely it is for HECs to actually be habitable," lead study author Rodrigo Luger, a Ph.D. student at the University of Washington in Seattle, wrote in a blog post. "Either way, these evaporated cores are probably lurking out there in the habitable zones of these stars, and many may be discovered in the coming years."
Red dwarfs are cooler than the sun, and they therefore burn through their fuel supply more slowly. In fact, scientists think these stars can keep on shining for trillions of years. (For comparison, the sun's lifespan is about 10 billion years.)
Red dwarfs, also known as M dwarfs, are very luminous and active in their youths, however. For hundreds of millions of years after they form, these stars blast out lots of high-energy X-rays and extreme ultraviolet (UV) radiation, which can erode or completely strip away the atmospheres of relatively nearby planets, Luger said.
Scientists have discovered a large number of mini-Neptunes — gaseous worlds more massive than Earth but smaller than "ice giants" such as Uranus or Neptune — orbiting distant stars. Mini-Neptunes consist of a rocky core surrounded by a thick hydrogen-helium atmosphere. Scientists think these planets form far from their host stars, where water and other volatile molecules exist as ice in the planet-forming disc.
So, mini-Neptunes around young red dwarfs would initially lie too far away to be reshaped by the stars' intense radiation. But computer modeling work performed by Luger and his team suggests that these planets could come closer to their stars over time.
This would happen because of tidal forces dragging the planets inward. These tidal effects arise from the fact that a star's gravitational pull is stronger on an orbiting planet's near (star-facing) side than the tug on the far side. Tidal forces can generate enormous amounts of internal energy, as the insides of a planet are stretched this way and that. And such forces can even cause planets to move, Luger said.
"The energy dissipated by the tides inside the planet has to come from somewhere. It turns out that it often comes from the orbit of the planet, which shrinks, bringing the planet closer to the star," Luger wrote in the blog post.
Some mini-Neptunes may thus migrate into the "habitable zone" (HZ) of their host stars — that just-right range of distances where liquid water could exist on a world's surface. There, the exoplanets would experience higher levels of X-ray and UV radiation, which could potentially strip away their thick atmospheres, leaving behind a rocky, Earthlike world.
"Such a planet is likely to have abundant surface water, since its core is rich in water-ice — once in the habitable zone, this ice can melt and form oceans," Luger wrote.
These HECs would be well-placed to possibly support life when the red dwarf calmed down after its initial high-activity phase.
"Many of the Earth-mass terrestrial planets detected in the HZs of M dwarfs in the coming years could be HECs," the authors write in the study, which was published this month in the journal Astrobiology. "These planets should have abundant surface water and are likely to be water worlds, whose potential for habitability should be investigated further."

UFO mania: AMAZING - Electrical Device Found At Gunung Padang.
UFO mania: AMAZING - Electrical Device Found At Gunung Padang
A famous geologist has hit the headlines with an amazing discovery. We are talking about Dr. Danny Hilman Natawidjaja, a somewhat controversial researcher that is working on the megalithic suite of Gunung Padang in Indonesia. Dr. Danny Hilman is responsible for the archaeological team conducting research on the site and they have recently announced a discovery of a oddly shaped metal device that is presumed to be the worlds oldest electrical device. According to researchers, this object is made out of gold and copper and seems to resemble a primitive electrical capacitator. According to some researchers, this newly found device seems very similar in structure to the biblical descriptions of the “The Ark of the Covenant “. Carbon dating confirms the device to be 2500 older than The Ark of the Covenant. Dr. Danny Hilman Natawidjaja also proposed that Gunung Padang region is a perfect match for Plato’s Atlantis. The discovery of the electrical device at Gunung Padang is getting a lot of attention, even President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono of Indonesia visited the site congratulating the researchers on their discovery and declaring that he has great interest for the results of the research. According to archaeologists, the subsurface layers at Gunung Padang might be more than 12,000 years old and the news of an electrical device being discovered points towards the possibility that ancient man had already mastered electricity thousands of years ago. “The findings on the Gunung Padang site will shock the world,” said the president’s special staffer for social aid and natural disasters, Andi Arief

UFO over Loch Lomond area, Scotland - Feb 1, 2015
UFO over Loch Lomond area, Scotland - Feb 1, 2015
Witness report: Don't be put off by this film just showing a light moving across the sky. Try to watch all the way through and you will definitely be discounting planes, lanterns, stars, Moon, etc and like me will be questioning what this large, very bright object could have been...
Filmed 5.25pm on 1st Feb 2015 from Kinlochard, Scotland, looking South South West. Very bright large white (reddish) light moves across sky above hills.
Filmed for over fifteen minutes this was definitely not a Chinese lantern (too large, too bright and too long in the sky), aircraft (No flight path and too low and slow) or helicopter (would have seen usual flashing green/red lights and heard something but object was silent plus the way it moved tells me not this type of aircraft).
It moved slowly and silently. It went behind forest trees on top of the high hills which are approx one mile away and still appeared to be quite a bit further than this but even though it was some distance the size from where I was filming still appeared to be large and very bright.
Judging distance and approximate location I would say that it was going over or flying close to Loch Lomond (Here is a rough idea where it may have been flying over: Grid ref – NS 39750-97783, Latitude:56.145741 Longitude: -4.5809916).
Although it flew over a remote area of the Trossachs National Park others must have seen it and probably with a better view. Would be good to know what this was and if anybody else got to see it.
So to re-cap, the object was large, was emitting a very bright white light with some red light also seen and looked at times to be pulsating. It moved silently and slowly and although I had filmed it for about fifteen minutes it would have been in the sky for longer but I had only noticed it as I was closing the curtains which is when I began to film. There is some blurring and camera shake on the film as I set the camera to manual focus and also to keep continuity of recording I carry on filming as I go upstairs to get a better view of the object.

Nieuwe beelden opgedoken 'die bewijzen dat er aliens waren in Area 51'
Nieuwe beelden opgedoken ‘die bewijzen dat er aliens waren in Area 51′
Er zijn beelden opgedoken uit de jaren veertig waarin te zien is hoe Amerikaanse soldaten zich ontfermen over het lichaam van een alien. Dat meldt een Australisch tijdschrift dat de video naar eigen zeggen frame voor frame heeft bestudeerd, zo weet de Britse krant Metro.
Volgens complotsites is dit hét bewijs dat er aliens zijn geborgen tijdens het Roswellincident in 1947. Het Australische magazine ‘UNCENSORED’ claimt dat het beeldmateriaal authentiek is.
De beelden doen sterk denken aan de Hollywoodfilm ‘Ant and Dec’s Alien Autopsy’ uit 2006. Philip Mantle, de UFO-expert die betrokken was bij de eerste film over Roswell, deed de beweringen van het tijdschrift af als ‘volstrekte onzin’.
UFO-website Panoramics stelt: “De techneuten van het tijdschrift hebben de beelden eerst geanalyseerd voordat ze ermee naar de pers zijn gestapt. Ze hebben vastgesteld dat het beeldmateriaal authentiek is. In de video is niet alleen de dode alien te zien, maar ook de hangar waar het lichaam naartoe is gebracht met de militaire ambulance. Er zijn genoeg aanwijzingen dat de beelden dateren uit de jaren veertig.”
Anderen reageerden in eerste instantie sceptisch. “Waar komt deze video vandaan en wie heeft de beelden gemaakt?” vraagt schrijver Nigel Watson zich af. “Het tijdschrift zegt het filmpje te hebben gevonden, maar gaat niet in op de details. We moeten niet vergeten dat de beruchte films over autopsieën op aliens uit de jaren tachtig nep bleken te zijn of waren gebaseerd op beeldmateriaal dat was zoekgeraakt.”
Eind vorig jaar claimde Tom Carey, een onderzoeker naar UFO’s en buitenaardse wezens, een authentieke foto te hebben van een alien waar autopsie op wordt uitgevoerd in het geheime gebied van Area 51. Volgens de Daily Mirror was bevestigd dat de foto dateert uit 1947, het jaar waarin de beroemde Roswellcrash plaatsvond in New Mexico.
De Roswellcrash is het beroemdste UFO-incident ooit. Op 8 juli 1947 zou een vliegende schotel zijn neergestort en zouden er meerdere buitenaardse lijken geborgen zijn. Ondanks dat eerst bekend werd gemaakt dat het om een buitenaards object zou gaan, werd dit bericht later afgezwakt tot het verhaal dat er een weerballon neergestort zou zijn.
Hierna werd het 30 jaar lang stil, tot enkele officieren van het Amerikaanse leger alsnog beweerden dat er sprake was van een buitenaards object dat ter aarde was gestort. Carey liet de beelden onderzoeken door een historicus van filmgigant Kodak.
Eigenlijk alle beelden die wij te zien krijgen van het oppervlak van Mars zijn in meer of mindere mate door NASA bewerkt.
Wanneer onafhankelijke foto-experts met deze beelden aan de slag gaan dan komen er interessante dingen tevoorschijn.
Dat we toch af en toe spannende dingen ontdekken op afbeeldingen van NASA komt omdat ze daar af en toe een beetje lopen te slapen of koffiepauze hebben wanneer er een interessant beeld voorbij komt.
Bewijs genoeg om tot de conclusie te komen dat het wemelt van leven op Mars. Bovendien, als dit niet zo was waarom dan al die moeite om dingen te verbergen?
Want, dat doen ze.
In 2012 schreven wij een artikel over hoe iedereen denkt dat het landschap van Mars rood gekleurd is, maar wat niet waar is:
De kern van het verhaal is dat er al meer dan honderdduizend jaar buitenaardsen op Mars zijn. Dat er wel degelijk een menselijke basis is op Mars. Dat de planeet helemaal niet rood is zoals men ons wil doen geloven, maar heel veel lijkt op het landschap zoals in Arizona, Amerika.
Waar het allemaal om draait is de geheime buitenaardse technologie en de nulpuntenergie die al meer dan 40 jaar beschikbaar is. Uiteindelijk komt het dan weer neer op rijkdom en macht. Een geheime coup op aarde.
Redactie: Inmiddels kunnen we daaraan toevoegen dat het dragen van een ruimtepak naar verluidt niet nodig is op Mars, al wordt die informatie sterk onderdrukt. Er is zuurstof in de lucht al is die aan het oppervlak ijler dan bij ons. Vergelijkbaar met als je je hier op aarde op zo'n 2000 meter hoogte bevindt. Even wennen dus, maar prima leefbaar al je bloed zich heeft aangepast aan die conditie.
Hier zie je een foto zoals die wordt gepubliceerd door NASA en welke gemaakt is door de Curiosity Rover aan het Mars oppervlak. Je ziet de ons bekende kleur van het Mars-landschap en ergens daar op de voorgrond ligt een soort ondefiniëerbaar object.
Volgens foto-experts echter, zijn dit soort foto’s van NASA bewerkt met wat ze noemen “roest pixels”. Deze worden met een photoshop programma aangebracht en zijn ook weer heel gemakkelijk te verwijderen. Wanneer je dat doet met bijvoorbeeld de bovenstaande foto dan zie je het volgende:
Als je dan het object wat dichterbij haalt, zie je het grote verschil met de NASA foto.
In plaats van een ondefiniëerbaar object zien we iets dat lijkt op een metalen schijf of misschien zelfs wel een gecrasht ruimteschip.
Hoe de roest pixels in de praktijk worden verwijderd van de bewerkte foto’s kun je zien in onderstaande video.
Canadian YouTube User Records Several UFOs Over Toronto, Ontario
Canadian YouTube User Records Several UFOs Over Toronto, Ontario
Toronto resident Jennifer OBrien recorded four different videos of mysterious objects hovering over her area on January 26, 2015. She uploaded her videos five days later, on 31 January, 2015 to YouTube. Some of the objects in these videos appear to be hovering for hours before moving slightly while others pulsate and change in colors erratically.
In her first recording, it shows an orb that changes color from orange to red and vice versa. Also, the strange ball changes in locations for approximately over an hour. The uploader also reveals that she also shot another glowing object on video over Lake Ontario at the same time. Jennifer encourages everyone who viewed her video to share their thoughts.
In the first part of the video, Jennifer looks getting out of her car to record the stationary light in the sky. The object appears close enough from the witness and doesn’t seem to be a star or a plane.
Jennifer’s second video shows orange/red orb descended slowly and records rapid changes of colors of a bright flashing blue object above Lake Ontario.
The second video now shows the previous object moving slightly, and a new object appears to the south – a pulsating light that occasionally changes in colors. Jennifer appears to place her camera down on her car and focus it on the object. The object remains motionless, but already in a different place in the next video.
On the third recording, the pulsating UFO has increased its altitude slightly and remained motionless above Lake Ontario.
On the fourth video, the bright object from the first recording now decreased its height significantly, while the pulsating UFO now higher to the South East.

How would the world change if we found extraterrestrial life?
How would the world change if we found extraterrestrial life?
January 31, 2015 - In 1938, Orson Welles narrated a radio broadcast of "War of the Worlds" as a series of simulated radio bulletins of what was happening in real time as Martians arrived on our home planet. The broadcast is widely remembered for creating public panic, although to what extent is hotly debated today.
Still, the incident serves as an illustration of what could happen when the first life beyond Earth is discovered. While scientists might be excited by the prospect, introducing the public, politicians and interest groups to the idea could take some time.
How extraterrestrial life would change our world view is a research interest of Steven Dick, who just completed a term as the Baruch S. Blumberg NASA/Library of Congress Chair of Astrobiology. The chair is jointly sponsored by the NASA Astrobiology Program and the John W. Kluge Center, at the Library of Congress.
Dick is a former astronomer and historian at the United States Naval Observatory, a past chief historian for NASA, and has published several books concerning the discovery of life beyond Earth. To Dick, even the discovery of microbes would be a profound shift for science.
"If we found microbes, it would have an effect on science, especially biology, by universalizing biology," he said. "We only have one case of biology on Earth. It's all related. It's all DNA-based. If we found an independent example on Mars or Europa, we have a chance of forming a universal biology."
Dick points out that even the possibilities of extraterrestrial fossils could change our viewpoints, such as the ongoing discussion of ALH84001, a Martian meteorite found in Antarctica that erupted into public consciousness in 1996 after a Science article said structures inside of it could be linked to biological activity. The conclusion, which is still debated today, led to congressional hearings.
"I've done a book about discovery in astronomy, and it's an extended process," Dick pointed out. "It's not like you point your telescope and say, 'Oh, I made a discovery.' It's always an extended process: You have to detect something, you have to interpret it, and it takes a long time to understand it. As for extraterrestrial life, the Mars rock showed it could take an extended period of years to understand it."
In his year at the Library of Congress, Dick spent time searching for historical examples (as well as historical analogies) of how humanity might deal with first contact with an extraterrestrial civilization. History shows that contact with new cultures can go in vastly different directions.
Hernan Cortes' treatment of the Aztecs is often cited as an example of how wrong first contact can go. But there were other efforts that were a little more mutually beneficial, although the outcomes were never perfect. Fur traders in Canada in the 1800s worked closely with Native Americans, for example, and the Chinese treasure fleet of the 15th Century successfully brought its home culture far beyond its borders, perhaps even to East Africa.
Even when both sides were trying hard to make communication work, there were barriers, noted Dick.
"The Jesuits had contact with Native Americans," he pointed out. "Certain concepts were difficult, like when they tried to get across the ideas of the soul and immortality."
Indirect contact by way of radio communications through the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI), also illustrates the challenges of transmitting information across cultures. There is historical precedence for this, such as when Greek knowledge passed west through Arab in the 12th Century. This shows that it is possible for ideas to be revived, even from dead cultures, he said.
It's also quite possible that the language we receive across these indirect communications would be foreign to us. Even though mathematics is often cited as a universal language, Dick said there are actually two schools of thought. One theory is that there is, indeed, one kind of mathematics that is based on a Platonic idea, and the other theory is that mathematics is a construction of the culture that you are in.
"There will be a decipherment process. It might be more like the Mayan decipherments," Dick said.
As Dick came to a greater understanding about the potential cultural impact of extraterrestrial intelligence, he invited other scholars to present their findings along with him. Dick chaired a two-day NASA/Library of Congress Astrobiology Symposium called "Preparing for Discovery," which was intended to address the impact of finding any kind of life beyond Earth, whether microbial or some kind of intelligent, multicellular life form.
The symposium participants discussed how to move beyond human-centered views of defining life, how to understand the philosophical and theological problems a discovery would bring, and how to help the public understand the implications of a discovery.
"There is also the question of what I call astro-ethics," Dick said. "How do you treat alien life? How do you treat it differently, ranging from microbes to intelligence? So we had a philosopher at our symposium talking about the moral status of non-human organisms, talking in relation to animals on Earth and what their status is in relation to us."
Dick plans to collect the lectures in a book for publication next year, but he also spent his time at the library gathering materials for a second book about how discovering life beyond Earth will revolutionize our thinking.
"It's very farsighted for NASA to fund a position like this," Dick added. "They have all their programs in astrobiology, they fund the scientists, but here they fund somebody to think about what the implications might be. It's a good idea to do this, to foresee what might happen before it occurs."

UFO mania: NASA Finds UFO and Mysterious Bright Spot on Dwarf Planet Ceres
UFO mania: NASA Finds UFO and Mysterious Bright Spot on Dwarf Planet Ceres
NASA scientists have been stymied by the discovery of a large, bright white spot on the dwarf planet Ceres, which has been revealed in images from the Dawn spacecraft, set to soon arrive at the unusual celestial object.
The white spot appeared in a series of photographs of Ceres taken on January 13, according to Space.com. Though the images were released on January 19, just what has caused the anomaly on the dwarf planet, which is located between Mars and Jupiter in the asteroid belt, remains undetermined, according to mission director and chief engineer Marc Rayman.
“Yes, we can confirm that it is something on Ceres that reflects more sunlight, but what that is remains a mystery,” he said.

Galactic CAT scan reveals bubbly interior of supernova Cassiopeia A
Galactic CAT scan reveals bubbly interior of supernova Cassiopeia A
February 1, 2015 - Astronomers have produced a 3D map of the interior of Cassiopeia A, a supernova in our galaxy, using the astronomical equivalent of a CAT scan.
The Cassiopeia A, or Cas A, exploded around 340 years ago and its relatively close proximity to the Earth makes it one of the most well-studied supernovas in our galaxy. Many astronomers still observe the supernova with great interest.
A new study conducted by researchers at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics and Dartmouth College unravels the bubbly interior of the supernova. The findings may shed more light on the way a supernova dies.
"Our three-dimensional map is a rare look at the insides of an exploded star," said Dan Milisavljevic of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics.
Astronomers explain that when a star explodes, it spews out extremely radioactive and hot matter outward from the core of the star. It is complex to model such process even with some of the most powerful computers on Earth.
However, by cautiously studying the remnants of fairly young supernovae such as Cas A, astronomers can examine several key processes that drive such stellar explosions.
The scientists suggest that the latest research involved examining the debris to understand what blew and how it blew. They claim that this latest study is a step forward in understanding how stars explode.
To generate the 3D map, the research team observed Cas A in near-infrared wavelengths of light using the Mayall 4-meter telescope at Kitt Peak National Observatory, southwest of Tucson, Ariz. The team also examined very faint materials found in the interior of Cas A, which provided significant information.
The study found that large cavities in the interior of Cas A look as if they were connected to large debris in the outer part of Cas A. The scientists posit that two cavities were very well-defined and had a diameter of three and six light-years. The researchers say that the entire structure resembled that of a Swiss cheese.
The authors of the study explain that the bubbly cavities of the supernova were possibly produced by clouds of radioactive nickel that was generated through the star explosion. As the nickel decays and forms iron, the bubbly interior of Cas A becomes rich in iron, scientists believe.
Further examination of the supernova via next-gen telescopes is needed to understand the origination of the bubbly interior of Cas A, suggest the researchers.
Le X-37B qui avait été mis en orbite depuis Cape Canaveral, le 11 décembre 2012, s’est reposé, par ses propres moyens, le 22 octobre 2014, sur la piste de la base aérienne Vandenberg de l’US Air Force. Il est ainsi resté 674 jours, soit presque deux années, en orbite autour de la Terre. C’était sa troisième mission. La première a eu lieu d’avril à décembre 2010 (224 jours) et la deuxième, de mars 2011 à juin 2012 (468 jours). A lui seul et en seulement trois missions, cet intrigant engin spatial réutilisable totalise plus de jours dans l’espace que les navettes spatiales, Discovery, Challenger et Columbia, en 135 missions…
Le X-37B se pose comme un avion après près de deux années en orbite au tour de la Terre
Le X-37B a une masse de 5 tonnes environ. Il se présente sous la forme d’un véhicule ailé automatique de type « Lifting Body » mis sur orbite par un lanceur classique et récupérable comme un avion, sur une piste conventionnelle. L’US Air Force explique qu’en orbite, l’appareil déploie des panneaux solaires et navigue pendant des mois dans l’espace avant de venir se reposer sur Terre, comme un avion, tout simplement. Officiellement, les militaires américains affirment que ce véhicule muni d’une soute, est destiné à tester de nouvelles techniques spatiales, des charges utiles, des matériaux et la rentrée dans l’atmosphère.
Le X-37B a déjà effectué trois missions autour de la Terre depuis 2010
Ces explications ne peuvent que laisser songeur les observateurs dans la mesure où ces techniques ont été largement mises au point lors de plusieurs programmes de recherche dont le point culminant fut la mise en service puis l’exploitation des navettes spatiales habitées au cours de 135 missions. Les Etats-Unis souhaitent aussi conserver un savoir-faire spatial que le retrait des « space shuttles » a mis en péril.
En fait, le potentiel du X-37B est plus qu’un trait d’union entre deux programmes. Il pourrait se révéler être tout simplement un engin spatial espion. En effet, depuis le retrait du service de ses avions largement supersoniques SR71 Blackbird, l’Oncle Sam se fie à ses U2 vieillissants, ses drones HALE pas encore tout à fait au point et à une flotte hors de prix de satellites en tous genres. Or, les drones peuvent être détectés et abattus, les avions espions aussi, et les satellites ont une trajectoire prévisible donc ils peuvent être leurrés par des techniques de camouflage, de déception ou de brouillage.
Dans ce contexte, le X-37B qui peut être lancé à volonté sur des orbites variées offre la souplesse d’emploi d’un avion capable d’évoluer hors de portée des missiles sol-air des pays survolés. Il possède les performances d’observation d’un satellite. Mieux, cet engin réutilisable est reconfigurable en fonction des besoins ; en cas de panne de la charge utile (observation radar, optique ou écoute électronique) il suffit de récupérer l’engin, de procéder aux réparations et de le remettre en orbite basse ou moyenne. Engin espion peut-être, mais l’une des applications les plus vraisemblables du X-37B serait la lutte anti-satellites.
En effet, toutes les nations modernes possèdent des armées équipées, avec des effecteurs redoutables, tels que des chars, des drones, des forces spéciales, des navires des avions, des hélicoptères… (la liste est loin d’être exhaustive). L’efficacité de ces moyens est basée sur la supériorité de l’information. En clair, le vainqueur d’un combat moderne est celui qui dispose de la vision la plus claire de la situation militaire et qui est capable de coordonner ses unités le plus rapidement et le plus judicieusement. Les militaires parlent de la chaine C4ISR (Computerized Command Control Communication Intelligence Surveillance Reconnaissance).
Cette chaine, qui constitue les yeux et les oreilles de toute nation moderne, est le garant de la réussite des opérations militaires. Elle repose sur un ensemble de moyens de communications dont la plupart est située dans l’espace, ce sont les fameux satellites d’observation et de relais radio. Détruisez les satellites qu’utilise votre adversaire, et vous aurez les clés de la victoire sur un ennemi désormais sourd, aveugle, incapable de coordonner ses actions.
Dès lors, le X-37B, un engin spatial militaire automatisé à longue endurance, capable de mettre en œuvre des charges utiles de brouillage, des armes électromagnétiques ou laser dans l’espace prend tout son sens. La guerre de l’espace a commencé.
'Earthquake Lights' are the new 'Swamp Gas' to explain some UFOs
'Earthquake Lights' are the new 'Swamp Gas' to explain some UFOs
February 2,2015 - Rare flashes of light that are sometimes seen around earthquakes are not caused by birds, or planes, or .... UFOs — all of which had been previously used to explain the phenomena known as 'earthquake lights' (according to an National Geographic article).
The article continues:
Instead, the lights are caused by electrical properties of certain rocks in specific settings, report scientists in a new paper.
Sometimes called earthquake lightning, the lights can take "many different shapes, forms, and colors," says study coauthor Friedemann Freund, an adjunct professor of physics at San Jose State University and a senior researcher at NASA's Ames Research Center.
Freund says common forms of earthquake lights include bluish flames that appear to come out of the ground at ankle height; orbs of light called ball lightning that float in the air for tens of seconds or even minutes; and quick flashes of bright light that resemble regular lightning strikes, except they come out of the ground instead of the sky and can stretch up to 650 feet (200 meters).
Over the centuries, there have been many reports of earthquake lights, both before and while the ground is shaking.
Just seconds before the 2009 L'Aquila, Italy, earthquake, people saw four-inch (ten-centimeter) flames of light flickering above a stone street.
On November 12, 1988, people reported a bright purple-pink globe of light along the St. Lawrence River in Quebec, 11 days before a powerful quake.
People also reported seeing a faint rainbow of light before the great 1906 quake in San Francisco and lights before the devastating 1811-12 New Madrid earthquakes in Missouri.
Freund and colleagues studied such historic accounts going all the way back to the year 1600 and published their findings in Seismological Research Letters.
"In the past, people often interpreted [earthquake lights] in religious terms, and in modern times they thought of UFOs, although there is a completely rational physical explanation that we are working on," Freud says.
Jim Conacher thought he was seeing UFOs when he spied seven yellow, luminous globes floating on a mountain on Tagish Lake in Canada's Yukon territory in the early 1970s.
A retired Canadian government agriculture inspector, Conacher took a photo of the lights, which circulated widely as purported evidence of a UFO encounter.
Freund and colleagues noticed that the timing of Conacher's photo seemed to place it just a few hours before the nearby Cross Sound earthquake of July 1, 1973, which measured 6.7 on the Richter scale.
For many years, sightings of earthquake lights were dismissed by the serious geology community.
But in the mid-1960s, during a series of earthquakes in Nagano, Japan, scientists made photos of earthquake lights that were clearly tied to the geologic activity. Since then, an increasing number of the phenomena have been captured on film and video, Freund said, in part because of the rise of surveillance cameras.
For example, cameras caught clear images of earthquake lights in Pisco, Peru, in August 2007, during a magnitude 8 earthquake there.
Over the past few years, various theories have been proposed for how earthquake lights form, including the disruption of the Earth's magnetic field by tectonic stress and the so-called piezoelectric effect, in which quartz-bearing rocks produce voltages when compressed in a certain way.
But Freund and colleagues now report that what causes earthquake lights appears to be an entirely different electrical process.
"When nature stresses certain rocks, electric charges are activated, as if you switched on a battery in the Earth's crust," he says.
The types of rocks that are particularly given to the phenomenon are basalts and gabbros, which have tiny defects in their crystals. When a seismic wave hits, electrical charges in the rocks may be released.
In some areas, basalts and gabbros are present in vertical structures called dikes, which formed as magma cooled along vertical faults and may reach as deep as 60 miles (97 kilometers) underground. These dikes may funnel electrical charges along, the scientists wrote.
"The charges can combine and form a kind of plasma-like state, which can travel at very high velocities and burst out at the surface to make electric discharges in the air," Freund added. Those discharges are what make the colorful light shows.
The right conditions for lights exist in less than 0.5 percent of earthquakes worldwide, the scientists estimate, which explains why the phenomena are relatively rare.
Earthquake lights seem to be most common in Italy, Greece, France, Germany, China, and parts of South America, though they have been observed in Japan, North America, and elsewhere.
The lights can occur weeks before major earthquakes, Freund noted, or during actual shaking. They have been recorded at distances of up to 100 miles (160 kilometers) from the epicenter.
Freund is working with other scientists on a global earthquake forecasting system and says scientists have started including earthquake lights as an indicator that a tremblor might be coming. (He avoids the term "prediction" because "it implies too much precision.")
"If we see two, three, or four characteristic phenomena, then it looks like there might be an earthquake," he said. He admitted that earthquake lights tend to be rare, but added, "If they are observed, let's watch out."
But others say that the lights will be of limited use for such forecasts.
"Earthquake lights are unlikely to be very helpful with earthquake prediction because they don't seem to be reported all that often," says Bruce Presgrave, a geophysicist with the U.S. Geological Survey's National Earthquake Information Center.
Earthquake lights have already been used to help predict quakes. Just before Italy's L'Aquila earthquake in 2009, a man in his kitchen saw bright flashes of light. Because he had reportedly read about earthquake lights before, he moved his family to a safer place.
In China in 1976, a geologist took shelter after seeing lights, which were followed by the deadly Tangshan quake.
Still, Freund says the lights are a small part of his broader work involving the electrical conductivity of rocks.
"I wasn't interested in earthquakes in the beginning, but then I realized that electrical phenomena are being activated by stress in the rocks," he says. "Earthquake lights are the tip of the iceberg, the most extreme expression of these phenomena, but underneath there are lots of other aspects, and we are considering measuring these in the context of forecasting."
As a next step, Freund hopes to reproduce earthquake lights in a laboratory. He also wants to better understand what causes the outburst of energy that leads to visible light.
I'm writing this to address the issues I have with Freud's comments. Specifically, the manner in which Freud speaks about UFOs, "In the past, people often interpreted [earthquake lights] in religious terms, and in modern times they thought of UFOs, although there is a completely rational physical explanation that we are working on", as though the term is only for syfy fan-boys and fringe groups.
The term UFO (Unidentified Flying Object) was created in 1953 by Captain Edward J. Ruppelt, of the USAF (the United States Air Force). Of course, later this term was hijacked by fringe groups and treated by the mainstream media and scientific community as a funny term for 'little green men'. Fringe groups are also enveloping other scientific terms into their repertoire of reformed definitions, such as Quantum. They have even created their own definition of quantum physics, but that isn't rece }iving ridicule.
The official definition of an Unidentified Flying Object 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.

MI5 spent years investigating crop circles
MI5 spent years investigating crop circles

The mysterious patterns were once believed to be secret codes designed to guide German bombers.
These days crop circles are generally regarded to be a harmless enigma, but during World War II British intelligence officials perceived them to be a serious threat to the country's security.
New files uncovered at the National Archives detail how British spies had suspected Nazi sympathizers of using these crop formations to send signals to German aircraft. One of the formations investigated for example was designed in a 'G' shape with the tail pointing towards a nearby munitions factory.
Reconnaissance planes photographed dozens of these markings all across the country after intelligence officials learned of similar techniques being used to guide aircraft in mainland Europe. Efforts were also made to investigate sightings of unexplained lights in the sky.
"In 1940, everyone in Britain thought "we're next", and that Germany would have recruited spies in England as well who would be sending messages to the Germans and marking places out where landings could be made," said Dr David Clarke of Sheffield Hallam University.
Many of the formations however turned out to have innocent explanations, raising criticism over the amount of resources MI5 put in to investigating them. The 'G' shaped formation for instance turned out to be nothing more than an innocuous barley plantation.
"The amount of time and energy that MI5 put into investigating these reports is astonishing," said Dr Clarke. "They had three officers full time based in the Eastern counties looking for lights in the sky they thought were agents signalling to German aircraft 'this way to Norwich'."

Want to become an astronaut and take a vacation to the Red Planet? Then you need to check out this video as we guide you through all the facts about what Space Travel is really like.
Imagine a time when humans, having spent decades exploring the solar system through landings on Venus and Mars; passages by the largest asteroids; close-up surveys of Jupiter and its giant moons; repeated loops through Saturn's system of rings and satellites; detailed photography of Uranus, Neptune and Pluto; and even landing on a comet, finally create a coherent plan to travel through interstellar space to reach the nearest stars and their planets.
That time has almost arrived. Once NASA's Dawn spacecraft arrives at the asteroid Ceres in March of this year , and the space agency's New Horizons spacecraft flies by Pluto in July, humans will have completed the solar system exploration described above. They will have done so, of course, by creating complex and highly capable spacecraft that not only secure high-resolution images of the objects they encounter, but also roll across planetary surfaces to measure local conditions in a dozen different ways, including spectroscopic and chemical analysis of the composition and history of each object.
Will humans ever replace robotic explorers?
To many of us, the success of our automated spacecraft heralds the long-awaited moments when humans finally land on Mars, Ganymede (Jupiter's largest moon) or Titan (Saturn's largest moon), eventually to establish self-sustaining colonies that might provide a continuing opportunity to maintain our existence if our home planet were to become uninhabitable. The interplay between our logical wishes to deepen our knowledge of the solar system and our gut-level desires for personal encounters with new situations — always present though not always acknowledged — has governed humans' ever-shifting plans to explore our nearby cosmic environment for half a century.
Just about everyone welcomes new information about the solar system, but what many really — really — want is for humanity to plant its boots on new soil, as Earth-bound explorers have done for many centuries. Lonely humans in space speak directly to our emotions, but pioneering spacecraft far less so. (Even an apparent exception, such as the hero of the movie "WALL-E," connects with us through its seeming humanity, a fact that won't surprise anyone who reflects for a moment on how storytelling works.)
Some facts remain evident: Human exploration of space is dangerous and expensive, requiring the provision of food and water, recycling of wastes, significant amounts of energy to run those systems, protection against harsh radiation and a return journey (or not, depending on volunteers' propensities). In comparison, automated spacecraft have only modest energy requirements, and can last for decades or more. As time passes, this comparison progressively favors machines, since they (thanks to humans!) become ever more competent, while our bodies evolve at a much slower pace.
As the brilliant physicist Freeman Dyson explains in the new podcast available at RawScience.tv, "Instruments have gotten enormously … humans are really out of it. If you want to go to space, that's for fun, not for science … This is not understood by the people in charge [of planning for future exploration missions]."
To be sure, when we dream of the far future, we can easily envision (thanks, in part, to many science-fiction stories and films) beings that combine today's human bodies with advanced technology to produce a human-machine hybrid far more capable of long journeys and survival in strange situations than individuals are today.
Humanity's destiny in space
Dyson's argument in favor of machines counts for little among those who insist — who know — that our destiny lies in the presence of humans, not our mechanistic surrogates, in space. For many of us, this knowledge runs more deeply than argument can reach. A glance at the history of the United States' space program reminds us of the many times, during the 40-plus years since the last lunar landing, that NASA has attempted to produce a reasonable plan to send humans beyond low-Earth orbit — only to have the expense of such projects, combined with the lack of a clear focus for astronaut activity, lead to their abandonment. Because the manned lunar program basically served as a counterpunch to Soviet efforts in space, once NASA and the United States achieved their initial goal of landing on the moon, they proved unable of following a coherent plan for future space exploration by humans.
What do these ambitions tell us about the future of interstellar exploration? Even before we consider human versus automated journeys, we should note that any answers to this question begin with a number: 1 million. The stars nearest to the sun lie at distances approximately 1 million times the distance to Mars at its closest approach to Earth. This ratio implies that travel to the stars at speeds our best spacecraft are capable of will take hundreds of thousands of years, and this, in turn, implies that any interstellar exploration will require either a civilization that knows how to plan for the long haul, or the ability to make spacecraft that can travel much faster — perhaps 10,000 times more rapidly — than what we have now. (I'll save the discussion of "wormholes" like those seen in the movies "Contact" and "Interstellar " for later.)
On the fast track, or slow and steady?
Consider spacecraft that could carry astronauts through space at speeds approaching the speed of light, conferring two great advantages on the crew. Most obviously, the journey requires less time — only a few years to reach the nearest stars, and only a couple of decades to span the distances to the closest thousand stars. In addition, time slows down at near-light velocities — by a factor of 10, for example, for those who travel at 99.5 percent the speed of light. At that velocity, an astronaut who makes an interstellar journey covering 50 light years in each direction would age by only 10 years, but would return to an Earth where everyone has aged by 100 years. (Those who suspect that Einstein's theory of relativity creates a "twin paradox" — that the traveler and those who stay behind should each see time slow down by a factor of 10 — can find an excellent explanation of the apparent paradox in David Mermin's book "Space and Time in Special Relativity" (Waveland, 1989).)
But how can we hope to move through space at close to the speed of light? More than 50 years ago, Dyson — who, even then, created intriguing and controversial ideas at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey — proposed that nuclear explosions could accelerate a spacecraft to ever-higher speeds. The "Project Orion" study, directed by Ted Taylor, though largely Dyson's brainchild, envisioned that a series of nuclear explosions would strike a "pusher plate" attached to the rear of a spacecraft, eventually accelerating the spacecraft to any desired velocity.
The concept remains theoretically feasible, though one can easily see that the expense would be enormous. As Dyson recalls in the RawScience podcast, by using the power of nuclear explosions, the Orion spacecraft could provide "both fast acceleration and fast travel, which nothing else could do … In principle, the idea was good," Dyson said, but "it had one fatal flaw: The bombs are highly radioactive … As soon as you had the test-ban treaty … Orion was dead."
Even if we manage to accelerate a spacecraft to velocities close to the speed of light (10,000 times faster than our fastest space probes), any spacecraft moving at near-light velocities encounters a significant problem. The same special-relativity rules that allow a traveler to return to Earth much younger than her twin brother who stayed home also imply that collisions with space debris — even tiny dust particles — inevitably pose great dangers. [Photos: Step-by-Step Guide to NASA's EFT-1 Orion Spacecraft Test Flight ]
When the spacecraft encounters dust and pebbles, the objects' near-light velocities, relative to the craft, enormously elevate their effective masses. An impactor's increase in mass, together with the tremendous collision speeds, call for enormous amounts of shielding to protect anyone inside the spacecraft. Hence, any plans to travel through the Milky Way at near-light speeds must embrace not only a truly massive propulsion system, but also enough shielding to protect the humans inside the craft.
Thinking in centuries
Nevertheless, Dyson's Orion concept remains, in many ways, the gold standard for visions of interstellar travel. In the recent podcast, Dyson noted that the name "Orion" has been passed on to NASA's most recent spacecraft design not for an interstellar vehicle, but for a far more modest craft to take astronauts to other worlds in the solar system. Dyson also identified the most basic requirement for interstellar spaceflight: a society capable of long-term planning and execution. "If you want to have a program for moving out into the universe, you have to think in centuries, not in decades."
That necessity for a long-term vision poses a serious barrier to interstellar journeys in a society that has great difficulty planning for even the next five years.
If we are prepared to think in centuries, as Dyson recommends, we should ask the key technological question: What prospects exist for interstellar space travel at comparatively low velocities? In the decades since this question first seriously arose, theorists have provided plenty of answers, which build on the success of our current interplanetary space probes. If you want to probe deeply into them, the coordinated websites of the Tau Zero Foundation and Centauri Dreams offer useful information on this topic. And if you want to examine a representative plan for interstellar travel, I recommend the PowerPoint presentation created by Steve Kilston, an astronomer who spent much of his career at Ball Aerospace (and with whom I have been friends since our undergraduate days). Kilston's "Plausible Path to the Stars" envisions the creation — in approximately 500 years — of a cylindrical spaceship that will carry a million inhabitants, will rotate in order to simulate Earth's gravity, will travel at 0.2 percent of the speed of light, and could reach the few dozen nearest stars in 10,000 years' time.
In other words, Kilston's "Plausible Path," like any other low-velocity journey, requires that generations upon generations of spacefarers pass their entire lives short of their goal. Today, this plan would attract few volunteers. But if human society came to feel sure of its long-term viability, so that our time horizon stretched beyond the current limits of (at most) our grandchildren's lifetimes, the situation would become quite different. Perhaps the wisest aspect of Kilston's plan lies in its final prelaunch phase: a 100-year cruise through the solar system to demonstrate the full feasibility of the spacecraft and the willingness of its crew to pass their lives in space.
Thus, a practical, technologically reasonable plan to explore our cosmic environment rests simply upon achieving a society in which a 100-year journey, and a few thousand years of travel time, seem both logical and desirable. To see how far we now stand from this goal, we may merely compare a film based on Kilston's "Plausible Path" with a movie like "Avatar" or "Interstellar." In today's world, almost no one is interested in moving from a situation in which months of spacecraft travel is far too long to one that tolerates multi-thousand-year journeys. Instead, we must hope for a better tomorrow.
The wormhole option
If we don't want to wait, what about taking the "Interstellar" route and using a wormhole to pass near-instantaneously from here to there? Kip Thorne, a physicist at the California Institute of Technology who's an expert on the subject — and whose screenplay inspired "Interstellar" — has written a book to accompany the film: "The Science of Interstellar" (W.W. Norton and Company, 2014). In the book, Thorne demonstrates that humans cannot rule out wormhole travel, but there is no guarantee that this method actually works, or that it could allow safe conduct through the voids of space.
Physicists have recently suggested that the Milky Way could contain — or even be! — a giant wormhole. On the other hand, an argument against wormhole travel, or at least against its easy operation, lies in the fact that no creatures of a more advanced civilization appear to be popping out of wormholes in our solar system. A similar argument can be made against time travel, at least in the backward direction, since we have yet to encounter beings from the future who have decided to visit our present.
To be frank, concepts of interstellar travel have progressed only modestly since Dyson envisioned the Orion project decades ago. Yes, layers of refinement have been added: "Slow" versus "fast" spaceflight has been debated and scored, experience has now given some indications of how well humans can survive long periods in space, and theoretical physics has provided some tantalizing possibilities that might make such journeys much easier than they now appear. But the big picture has not changed: First, we must figure out how to live successfully for the long term on Earth, and then we can go to the stars.

How 40,000 Tons of Cosmic Dust Falling to Earth Affects You and Me
How 40,000 Tons of Cosmic Dust Falling to Earth Affects You and Me
We have stardust in us as old as the universe—and some that may have landed on Earth just a hundred years ago,
In this infrared image, stellar winds from a giant star cause interstellar dust to form ripples. There's a whole lot of dust—which contains oxygen, carbon, iron, nickel, and all the other elements—out there, and eventually some of it finds its way into our bodies
Astrophysics and medical pathology don't, at first sight, appear to have much in common. What do sunspots have to do with liver spots? How does the big bang connect with cystic fibrosis?
Talking from their home in Palo Alto, California, they explain how everything in us originated in cosmic explosions billions of years ago, how our bodies are in a constant state of decay and regeneration, and why singer Joni Mitchell was right.
We are stardust," Joni Mitchell famously sang in "Woodstock." It turns out she was right, wasn't she?
Iris: Was she ever! Everything we are and everything in the universe and on Earth originated from stardust, and it continually floats through us even today. It directly connects us to the universe, rebuilding our bodies over and again over our lifetimes.
That was one of the biggest surprises for us in this book. We really didn't realize how impermanent we are, and that our bodies are made of remnants of stars and massive explosions in the galaxies. All the material in our bodies originates with that residual stardust, and it finds its way into plants, and from there into the nutrients that we need for everything we do—think, move, grow. And every few years the bulk of our bodies are newly created.
Can you give me some examples of how stardust formed us?
Karel: When the universe started, there was just hydrogen and a little helium and very little of anything else. Helium is not in our bodies. Hydrogen is, but that's not the bulk of our weight. Stars are like nuclear reactors. They take a fuel and convert it to something else. Hydrogen is formed into helium, and helium is built into carbon, nitrogen and oxygen, iron and sulfur—everything we're made of. When stars get to the end of their lives, they swell up and fall together again, throwing off their outer layers. If a star is heavy enough, it will explode in a supernova.
So most of the material that we're made of comes out of dying stars, or stars that died in explosions. And those stellar explosions continue. We have stuff in us as old as the universe, and then some stuff that landed here maybe only a hundred years ago. And all of that mixes in our bodies.
Stars are being born and stars are dying in this infrared snapshot of the heavens. You and I—we come from stardust.

Your book yokes together two seemingly different sciences: astrophysics and human biology. Describe your individual professions and how you combined them to create this book.
Iris: I'm a physician specializing in genetics and pathology. Pathologists are the medical specialists who diagnose diseases and their causes. We also study the responses of the body to such diseases and to the treatment given. I do this at the level of the DNA, so at Stanford University I direct the diagnostic molecular pathology laboratory. I also provide patient care by diagnosing inherited diseases and also cancers, and by following therapy responses in those cancer patients based on changes that we can detect in their DNA.
Our book is based on many conversations that Karel and I had, in which we talked to each other about topics from our daily professional lives. Those areas are quite different. I look at the code of life. He's an astrophysicist who explores the secrets of the stars. But the more we followed up on our questions to each other, the more we discovered our fields have a lot more connections than we thought possible.
Karel: I'm an astrophysicist. Astrophysicists specialize in all sorts of things, from dark matter to galaxies. I picked stars because they fascinated me. But no matter how many stars you look at, you can never see any detail. They're all tiny points in the sky.
So I turned my attention to the sun, which is the only star where we can see what happens all over the universe. At some point NASA asked me to lead a summer school for beginning researchers to try to create materials to understand the things that go all the way from the sun to the Earth. I learned so many things about these connections I started to tell Iris. At some point I thought: This could be an interesting story, and it dawned on us that together we go all the way, as she said, from the smallest to the largest. And we have great fun doing this together.
We tend to think of our bodies changing only slowly once we reach adulthood. So I was fascinated to discover that, in fact, we're changing all the time and constantly rebuilding ourselves. Talk about our skin.
Iris: Most people don't even think of the skin as an organ. In fact, it's our largest one. To keep alive, our cells have to divide and grow. We're aware of that because we see children grow. But cells also age and eventually die, and the skin is a great example of this.
It's something that touches everything around us. It's also very exposed to damage and needs to constantly regenerate. It weighs around eight pounds [four kilograms] and is composed of several layers. These layers age quickly, especially the outer layer, the dermis. The cells there are replaced roughly every month or two. That means we lose approximately 30,000 cells every minute throughout our lives, and our entire external surface layer is replaced about once a year.
Very little of our physical bodies lasts for more than a few years. Of course, that's at odds with how we perceive ourselves when we look into the mirror. But we're not fixed at all. We're more like a pattern or a process. And it was the transience of the body and the flow of energy and matter needed to counter that impermanence that led us to explore our interconnectedness with the universe.
You have a fascinating discussion about age. Describe how different parts of the human body age at different speeds.
Iris: Every tissue recreates itself, but they all do it at a different rate. We know through carbon dating that cells in the adult human body have an average age of seven to ten years. That's far less than the age of the average human, but there are remarkable differences in these ages. Some cells literally exist for a few days. Those are the ones that touch the surface. The skin is a great example, but also the surfaces of our lungs and the digestive tract. The muscle cells of the heart, an organ we consider to be very permanent, typically continue to function for more than a decade. But if you look at a person who's 50, about half of their heart cells will have been replaced.
Our bodies are never static. We're dynamic beings, and we have to be dynamic to remain alive. This is not just true for us humans. It's true for all living things.
A figure that jumped out at me is that 40,000 tons of cosmic dust fall on Earth every year. Where does it all come from? How does it affect us?
Karel: When the solar system formed, it started to freeze gas into ice and dust particles. They would grow and grow by colliding. Eventually gravity pulled them together to form planets. The planets are like big vacuum cleaners, sucking in everything around them. But they didn't complete the job. There's still an awful lot of dust floating around.
When we say that as an astronomer, we can mean anything from objects weighing micrograms, which you wouldn't even see unless you had a microscope, to things that weigh many tons, like comets. All that stuff is still there, being pulled around by the gravity of the planets and the sun. The Earth can't avoid running into this debris, so that dust falls onto the Earth all the time and has from the very beginning. It's why the planet was made in the first place. Nowadays, you don't even notice it. But eventually all that stuff, which contains oxygen and carbon, iron, nickel, and all the other elements, finds its way into our bodies.
When a really big piece of dust, like a giant comet or asteroid, falls onto the Earth, you get a massive explosion, which is one of the reasons we believe the dinosaurs became extinct some 70 million years ago. That fortunately doesn't happen very often. But things fall out of the sky all the time. [Laughs]
Many everyday commodities we use also began their existence in outer space. Tell us about salt.
Karel: Whatever you mention, its history began in outer space. Take salt. What we usually mean by salt is kitchen salt. It has two chemicals, sodium and chloride. Where did they come from? They were formed inside stars that exploded billions of years ago and at some point found their way onto the Earth. Stellar explosions are still going on today in the galaxy, so some of the chlorine we're eating in salt was made only recently.
You study pathology, Iris. Is physical malfunction part of the cosmic order?
Iris: Absolutely. There are healthy processes, such as growth, for which we need cell division. Then there are processes when things go wrong. We age because we lose the balance between cell deaths and regeneration. That's what we see in the mirror when we age over time. That's also what we see when diseases develop, such as cancers. Cancer is basically a mistake in the DNA, and because of that the whole system can be derailed. Aging and cancer are actually very similar processes. They both originate in the fact that there's a loss of balance between regeneration and cell loss.
Cystic fibrosis is an inherited genetic disease. You inherit an error in the DNA. Because of that, certain tissues do not have the capability to provide their normal function to the body. My work is focused on finding changes in DNA in different populations so we can understand better what kinds of mutations are the basis of that disease. Based on that, we can provide prognosis. There are now drugs that target specific mutations, as well as transplants, so these patients can have a much better life span than was possible 10 or 20 years ago.
How has writing this book changed your view of life—and your view of each other?
Karel: There are two things that struck me, one that I had no idea about. The first is what Iris described earlier—the impermanence of our bodies. As a physicist, I thought the body was built early on, that it would grow and be stable. Iris showed me, over a long series of dinner discussions, that that's not the way it works. Cells die and rebuild all the time. We're literally not what were a few years ago, and not just because of the way we think. Everything around us does this. Nature is not outside us. We are nature.
As far as our relationship is concerned, I always had a great deal of respect for Iris, and physicians in general. They have to know things that I couldn't possibly remember. And that's only grown with time.
Iris: Physics was not my favorite topic in high school. [Laughs] Through Karel and our conversations, I feel that the universe and the world around us has become much more accessible. That was our goal with the book as well. We wanted it to be accessible and understandable for anyone with a high school education. It was a challenge to write it that way, to explain things to each other in lay terms. But it has certainly changed my view of life. It's increased my sense of wonder and appreciation of life.
In terms of Karel's profession and our relationship, it has inevitably deepened. We understand much better what the other person is doing in the sandboxes we respectively play in. [Laughs]

Ceres: The Smallest and Closest Dwarf Planet

Ceres is a dwarf planet, the only one located in the inner reaches of the solar system; the rest lie at the outer edges, in the Kuiper Belt. While it is the smallest of the known dwarf planets, it is the largest object in the asteroid belt.
Unlike other rocky bodies in the asteroid belt, Ceres is an oblate spheroid, rounded with a rotational bulge around its equator. Scientists think Ceres may have an ocean and possibly an atmosphere. A probe will arrive in 2015 to study the object more closely and unlock those mysteries. [See more photos of the dwarf planet Ceres]
History & discovery
Astronomers in the late 18th century mathematically predicted the presence of a planet between Mars and Jupiter, eagerly turning their telescopes to the region in search of the missing body. On Jan. 1, 1801, Sicilian astronomer Giuseppe Piazzi discovered what was then considered a planet, naming it Ceres for the Roman goddess of corn and harvests.
Within a decade, four new objects were discovered in the same region, all also considered planets. Nearly 50 years passed before more, smaller bodies were found scattered between Mars and Jupiter — the components of the asteroid belt — and Ceres was demoted to the status of an asteroid.
In 2006, Ceres was promoted to the status of a dwarf planet; it did not reach full planetary status because it failed to gravitationally clear its neighborhood of debris, though it often retains its classification as an asteroid, as well. [Infographic: Dwarf Planets in the Solar System]
The largest object in the asteroid belt, Ceres makes up nearly a third of its mass. Even so, it remains the smallest known dwarf planet, only 590 miles (950 km) across — roughly the size of Texas. A day on Ceres lasts a little over 9 Earth-hours, while it takes 4.6 Earth-years to travel around the sun.
Ceres has a density of 2.09 grams per cubic centimeter, leading scientists to conclude approximately a quarter of its weight is water. This would give the dwarf planet more fresh water than Earth contains.

With temperature highs of minus 38 degrees C (minus 37 F), water at the surface of Ceres would sublimate, potentially creating a thin atmosphere. Signs of possible sublimation were observed at the dwarf planet's north pole in the early 1990s, but were ambiguous and have not been seen again.
Instead, scientists think that water-ice serves as the mantle of the dwarf planet. The thin, dusty crust is thought to be composed of rock, while a rocky inner core lies at the center. Spectral observations of Ceres from Earth reveals that the surface contains iron-rich clays. Signs of carbonates have similarly been found, making Ceres one of the only bodies in the solar system known to contain these minerals, the other two being Earth and Mars. Formed by a process that involves heat and water, carbonates are considered good potential indicators of habitability. [The Search for Life on Mars (A Photo Timeline)]
Asteroid Basics: A Space Rock Quiz
Asteroids are fascinating for lots of reasons. They contain a variety of valuable resources and slam into our planet on a regular basis, occasionally snuffing out most of Earth's lifeforms. How much do you know about space rocks?

Convinced? While that controversy was still raging on, a second one pops up. Images taken by the Dawn spacecraft of the dwarf planet Ceres released on January 19 show a large, flickering white spot on the surface. (image at the top of the page) What could it be? Mission director and chief engineer Marc Rayman gave this unusual statement:
“Yes, we can confirm that it is something on Ceres that reflects more sunlight, but what that is remains a mystery. We do not know what the white spot is, but it’s certainly intriguing. In fact, it makes you want to send a spacecraft there to find out, and of course that is exactly what we are doing! So as Dawn brings Ceres into sharper focus, we will be able to see with exquisite detail what [the white spot] is.”
??????????
UIP Summary
WOW, I wonder what NASA will say next?….. if it’s a spaceship!? Hmmm I think that would be expecting just a little too much! There is probably more chance of NASA putting it down as a ‘run away weather balloon’ from planet earth! This in our mind here at UIP HQ is a very strange yet extremely interesting answer off NASA! We just hope nobody else from NASA suddenly ‘goes missing’
In the meantime, two statements in a week from NASA on UFOs means someone is listening. While we have their attention, what do you think the objects are???
Roswell Alien Slides To Be Unveiled in May Via a Live Streamed Event
Roswell Alien Slides To Be Unveiled in May Via a Live Streamed Event
What some say represents stunning visual evidence of a humanoid creature that was found crashed near Roswell, NM in 1947 will soon to be released in an international livestream event. Referred to by some as “the Roswell Slides,” the Kodachrome images have now been authenticated by expert scientists and their provenance has been confirmed. During that long process many have speculated about precisely what these pictures show. People will now be able to see for themselves with the public reveal of the slides on May 5th 2015.
National Auditorium, Mexico City
The event will include presenters Dr. Edgar Mitchell, the sixth man on the Moon, as well as noted authors and Roswell investigators Tom Carey and Don Schmitt. Transmitted live from the 10,000 seat National Auditorium in Mexico City, the history and background context of the slides (as well as other facets of the case) will be detailed. Tom Carey, who made international news when he announced the discovery of the slides at American University in Washington, DC last month, will be providing more information and logistical details on the event shortly.
A Short Slides Redux
Some years ago, while an attic was being cleaned out, a chest was found containing many Kodachrome slides. Two Kodachrome slides were later found to have been separately hidden in an envelope within the inner lining of the chest’s lid. The chest and its contents were traced and found to have belonged to an intriguing, childless couple that are now deceased.
This author made the discovery that the husband, Bernerd A. Ray, was an Oil Exploration Geologist working the fields in New Mexico and the Permian Basin (which includes the Roswell region) in the 1940s for a company that would later become part of Texaco. In 1947 he was the President of the Texas chapter of the American Institute of Petroleum Geologists, which also at that time ‘folded in’ the State of New Mexico. After 1947, Bernerd became a ‘ghost’ in his profession and did not publish nor appear to be active with the Institute ever again.
Hilda Ray, Esq.
Hilda Blair Ray
Bernerd’s wife was Hilda Blair Ray. Researchers Tom Carey and Don Schmitt and the current owner of the film learned that Hilda was a highly respected lawyer with a high-end clientele and possible intelligence connections. A private pilot, she maintained favorable relations with well-placed individuals in both the public and private sectors during the 1940s. The other slides in the chest (over 100) are often found depicting accomplished people, including Dwight Eisenhower. This is a couple who were of the highest integrity. And both had contacts and activities that could have fortuitously enabled them to obtain these slides. And neither would have been the type to hide away hoaxed images as part of some sick prank, only to have those images found decades later by happenstance. This busy professional couple was also philanthropic with no propensity to prank.
Why The Slides are Genuine Professionals from a range of disciplines who have seen the slides agree that they depict a small humanoid creature –a formerly living thing- that is not a prop nor a genetically defective human. And importantly, the being that is shown in the slides does not correlate whatsoever to the depictions of aliens extant in the popular culture of the 1940s (such as those that appeared in pulp magazines like Amazing Stories or movies like Buck Rogers) What the slides depict were not even part of the public psyche of that time. This is not how people envisioned things from outer space to look like back then. Instead, these 1947 slides reveal a being that looks like the beings found in the desert in 1947 as described by the witnesses to Roswell.
I was asked by Tom Carey to find the best available talent to test and analyze these Kodak slides. An extensive search was conducted and I found that talent. A Photo Scientist employed by Kodak for decades who will be named at the event, this expert has led engineering, production and product management groups at the company’s Rochester, NY headquarters. Now a consultant, he also published the definitive book on Kodak film processes. Highly acknowledged in his field, he conducted extensive testing on the slides and conclusively authenticated the slides of the creature as having been exposed in the year 1947. It was also concluded that the slides had not been tampered with nor manipulated in any way. What is depicted is really there, accurately reflected in the emulsion as an actual moment in time in 1947. Science has weighed in and has determined that these are real slides that are really from 1947.
And Law would agree with Science in this case. In the eyes of the courts, the slides serve as two types of legally admissible evidence. Circumstantial Evidence represents informed and reasonable inferences that can be made about a case given the specific circumstances and history surrounding it. The circumstances and history surrounding the Rays is very telling- from who they were and what they did, to where they were and who they knew. Documentary Evidence is a legal term that relates to evidence that accurately reflects a moment in time. This includes video, sound recordings, x-rays, photographs and slides.
The Only Conclusion This humanoid is not a deformed person, mummy, dummy, simian or dead serviceman. It is not a creature that finds its origin on Earth. And given that the slides of this creature were taken the very same year as the Roswell UFO crash; that the appearance of the creature matches the reported appearance of the Roswell crash aliens; and given that the person who was in original possession of the slides was a geologist working the New Mexico desert throughout the 1940’s, it is not a jump or stretch to then conclude that these slides indeed show the corpse of one of the creatures found fallen at Roswell.

New footage leaked! Is This The Real Roswell Alien Footage?
New footage leaked! Is This The Real Roswell Alien Footage?
February 2, 2015 - This intriguing footage of what purports to be a 36 second clip of the body of a dead alien being carried into a military airplane hanger and examined by military personnel including at least one MP, was originally published in UNCENSORED, a New Zealand and Australian quarterly magazine that is now being distributed in the US.
The magazine's technical people did a frame by frame analysis prior going to press with it and determined that it was legitimate in every respect.
It not only shows the dead alien (probably from the Roswell crash) itself, but also the hanger and the alien body being carried into the hanger from the military ambulance that delivered it. It has enough clues to accurately date the footage from the late 1940s.
The editors describe the find as "monumentally interesting", indeed "authentic". The magazine has not disclosed how UNCENSORED discovered or was given the footage, but is adamant about its authenticity.
While UNCENSORED was the first magazine to publish stills from the clip, the complete footage itself was not released on the internet by the magazine until now.

Witte ronde UFO boven Limburg, Nederland ( Video )
Witte ronde UFO boven Limburg, Nederland ( Video )
Afgelopen zaterdag rond een uur of zes is er een UFO waargenomen en gefilmd in de buurt van de Limburgse plaats Echt.
Ook hier het bekende fenomeen dat een ronde en in dit geval witte UFO ongestoord ronddartelt door de lucht.
Een lezer stuurde het volgende bericht:
Vanavond rond de klok van 18.00u een vreemd licht waargenomen.
Via de skyview app gekeken of er sterren in de buurt van het licht zouden zijn, dit is niet het geval.
Het was nog redelijk licht buiten en er waren geen enkele sterren zichtbaar in mijn gehele gezichtsveld.
Ik heb dit gefilmd, helaas met de hand en door het inzoomen is het beeld erg bewegelijk.
Het waren drie afzonderlijk opnames, die wij in onderstaande video hebben samengevoegd tot één opname.
Wat belangrijk is dat mensen dit soort gebeurtenissen blijven rapporteren, fotograferen en/of filmen.
Er gebeuren steeds meer vreemde dingen in de lucht boven onze hoofden en hoe meer materiaal er beschikbaar is, des te eerder kunnen we misschien het raadsel van de vreemde ronde oranje en/of witte bollen/UFO’s oplossen.
Ook willen wij iedereen vragen alert te blijven op vreemde wolken. Zeker die waarvan het lijkt alsof ze eigenlijk niet in het landschap thuis horen. We weten dat er ook in ons land als wolken vermomde moederschepen en/of portalen naar andere dimensies actief zijn.
Op alle fronten lijkt 2015 het jaar van verandering te gaan worden. Het zou mooi zijn wanneer we voor het einde ervan gezamenlijk erin slagen om het raadsel van de oranje/witte bollen op te lossen.
Amerikaanse luchtmacht liet onderzoek doen naar experimenten met telekinese
Amerikaanse luchtmacht liet onderzoek doen naar experimenten met telekinese
Studies hebben aangetoond dat mensen met hun gedachten metaal kunnen buigen en objecten uit een afgesloten doos kunnen halen. In een paper dat in 2004 op verzoek van de Amerikaanse luchtmacht is geschreven door astrofysicus dr. Eric W. Davis zijn wetenschappelijke experimenten met teleportatie en telekinese geanalyseerd.
Telekinese is het beïnvloeden of bewegen van voorwerpen op afstand door de zogenoemde geestkracht, dus zonder fysieke hulpmiddelen te gebruiken. Teleportatie is de rechtstreekse verplaatsing van objecten van de ene plaats naar de andere, zonder dat het object fysiek de ruimte tussen beide plaatsen doorkruist.
Luchtvaartingenieur Jack Houck leerde mensen onder toezicht van overheidsadviseurs en hoge legerfunctionarissen hoe ze lepels en vorken met hun geestkracht konden buigen. De proefpersonen mochten vervolgens in het Pentagon laten zien wat ze hadden geleerd.
De luchtmacht is erg geïnteresseerd in dergelijke experimenten omdat het beïnvloeden van materie met de geest een krachtig wapen kan zijn in een oorlog.
Dr. Robert Jahn, emeritus conrector van de School of Engineering van de Princeton-universiteit, deed experimenten waaruit bleek dat de geest materie kan beïnvloeden. Hij woonde in de jaren tachtig in het Naval Research Laboratory van NASA een bijeenkomst bij over telekinese en waarschuwde dat vijanden telekinese zouden kunnen gebruiken om ervoor te zorgen dat Amerikaanse gevechtspiloten de macht over hun vliegtuig kwijtraken en crashen.
De Amerikaanse overheid deed tientallen jaren onderzoek naar remote viewing. Het programma werd in 1994 beëindigd door president Bill Clinton en een jaar later geopenbaard. Majoor Ed Dames maakte deel uit van dit programma en geeft nu les in remote viewing.
Met behulp van remote viewing of verzien wist majoor Dames het bestaan van een geheel nieuw Sovjetwapen te bevestigen, waarna hij hoge functionarissen van de NSA op de hoogte bracht van het belang van dit nieuwe wapen.
Atlantis in Indonesië? Geoloog claimt resten van verloren beschaving te hebben gevonden
Atlantis in Indonesië? Geoloog claimt resten van verloren beschaving te hebben gevonden
Eerder deze maand werd bekend dat een scheepswrak bij Sicilië vol ligt met orichalcum, een metaal dat van het geheimzinnige Atlantis zou kunnen komen. Duikers hebben in een schip dat 2600 jaar geleden is gezonken 39 staven van het mysterieuze metaal gevonden.
De Griekse filosoof Plato vertelde rond 360 voor Christus het verhaal over Atlantis. De stichters van dit eilandenrijk zouden half god en half mens zijn. Er was een overvloed aan goud, zilver en andere waardevolle metalen waaronder orichalcum.
De tempel van Poseidon zou volledig bekleed zijn met dit schitterende roodachtige metaal. Waar Atlantis zou hebben gelegen en wat er allemaal waar is van deze mythe weet niemand. Of misschien toch wel?
Geoloog Danny Natawidjaja van het Indonesisch Instituut van Wetenschappen zegt: “Alles wat we geleerd hebben over de oorsprong van de menselijke beschaving, is wellicht onjuist. Oude verhalen over Atlantis en andere verloren beschavingen in de prehistorie, die lange tijd door archeologen werden afgedaan als mythes, lijken te zijn gebaseerd op ware gebeurtenissen.”
Natawidjaja en zijn collega’s kwamen tot de ontdekking dat Gunung Padang in de Indonesische provincie West-Java geen heuvel is, maar een 100 meter hoge trappiramide. Hij legde uit: “Gunung Padang is geen natuurlijke formatie, maar een door mensen gemaakte piramide die ver voor het einde van de laatste ijstijd is gebouwd. Ik kan alleen maar concluderen dat we te maken hebben met het werk van een vrij hoogontwikkelde verloren beschaving.”
Bouwmaterialen diep onder de grond zijn door het team van Natawidjaja gedateerd op 13.000 tot 23.000 jaar oud. Daarmee is de piramide ouder dan de oudst bekende nederzettingen. Natawidjaja claimt dat Gunung Padang zelfs de verloren stad Atlantis zou kunnen zijn. Hij zegt ook een duizenden jaren oud elektrisch apparaat van goud te hebben gevonden.
Veel archeologen hebben kritiek op het werk van Natawidjaja, maar hij krijgt ook steun van historici als Graham Hancock en Indonesische politici waaronder president Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono.
Nieuwe theorie suggereert dat verleden, heden en toekomst naast elkaar in het heelal bestaan
Nieuwe theorie suggereert dat verleden, heden en toekomst naast elkaar in het heelal bestaan
Volgens een nieuwe theorie moeten we anders gaan nadenken over tijd en is alles in de tijd alomtegenwoordig. Als we van bovenaf op het universum zouden ‘neerkijken’, zouden we zien hoe tijd zich in alle richtingen verspreidt, net zoals we ruimte op dit moment zien.
Deze intrigerende theorie is ontwikkeld door dr. Bradford Skow van het Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). In zijn nieuwe boek Objective Becoming analyseert hij een aantal theorieën die zijn bedacht om tijd te verklaren.
“Als je mensen vraagt naar het verstrijken van tijd, gebruiken ze vaak een metafoor,” zei hij. “Ze zeggen dat tijd als een rivier is of dat we door de tijd gaan als een schip dat door het water vaart.”
Een andere theorie stelt dat het heden een ‘schijnwerper’ is die van het verleden naar de toekomst beweegt. Dr. Skow gelooft daar niet zo in. Hij is voorstander van een theorie die bekendstaat als het ‘blok-universum’, waarin het verleden, het heden en de toekomst naar elkaar bestaan.
Bradford Skow (MIT)
Dr. Skow denkt niet dat we gebeurtenissen achter ons laten waarna ze voor altijd verdwijnen. In plaats daarvan bestaan ze volgens hem in verschillende delen van de ruimtetijd. Hij zegt dat de ervaringen die je gisteren, afgelopen week of zelfs jaren geleden had allemaal echt zijn, maar dat we nu in een ander deel van de ruimtetijd zijn beland.
In december vorig jaar suggereerden wetenschappers dat er een ‘spiegeluniversum’ moet zijn waarin de tijd in tegengestelde richting gaat. Voor intelligente wezens in dat universum zou het lijken alsof wij teruggaan in de tijd.
De onderzoekers zeggen dat er na de oerknal twee universa zijn ontstaan, die in tegenovergestelde richting uit elkaar door de tijd bewegen. Het spiegeluniversum zou er anders uitzien als het onze, maar zou wel planeten, sterren en sterrenstelsels bevatten.

Edinburgh- Hillend and Straiton Loanhead, UK – 30 January 2015 My wife and I were travelling from Danderhall to Straiton on our way to Asda along Gilmerton Station Road when we noticed a bright green light above the peak of the hill that the ski slope is situated on. The light rapidly changed in color and intensity from Green to red and rushed directly toward where we were driving. I got my wife to stop on the road and I got out to watch. The craft made no noise and was silent as it approached and settled in the sky stationary above us but to high to see any details other than the lights on the craft were now multiple there were 2 red lights and 2 green. The craft stopped in the sky for a few seconds and then started moving off back in the direction of hillend ski slope at greatly varying speeds and altitudes. It was fascinating to watch – like nothing I have ever seen before. i did try to video it on my Wifes phone but its rubbish quality all you can see is a colored dot moving on the screen I wish I could have recorded at the same resolution of my eyes then there’d be no doubt what we saw was a UFO. It was moving much faster than the conventional aircraft which could also be seen moving in the night sky which were very slow in comparison with it being an approach to Edinburgh Airplort. We watched as it moved up and down and back and forward at great speed colors changing occassionaly from Red Green Blue and white in no specific pattern. At one point it was heading to Arthurs seat and came back. Then eventually it moved of toward the horizon past Hillend and out of my view. My wife and I were amazed. I went on the Internetas soon as i got home expecting it to be alive with reports of this spectacle but there was nothing, I cant believe that no one else has reported this so far. Amazing.

Above I-70 near Independence Missouri – 11:25 am January 26th, 2015 My daughter and I were travelling eastbound on I70 when I spotted it. I pointed and said “Look, a ufo!” She looked up from her phone and saw the same thing I did. It was triangular and silver. I slowed down and we watched it for about ten seconds. It was going south when it changed diriction to move east, then it just got brighter and just vanished. It was close enough that we could tell it was’nt normal technology that I’m familiar with. It turned on so perfectly without slanting just a quick turn.

Midlands, United Kingdom – 23 January 2015 Hi there I wonder if you can help me make sense of these pics i took outside my house in the Midlands, United Kingdom.. only today… it was still light, around 4pm and a little cloudy.. my ten year old daughter spotted these ‘dots’ first on our way out so it’s certainly not my eyes.. The bigger one was floating and changing shape but not traveling or moving really.. just waning and flipping aimlessly.. almost like a limp bird in zero gravity, im sorry if it sounds absurd but its the best way to describe exactly what we saw.. The other dots on the left of them were completely motionless and consistently kept in the formation they were in the pic for some 20 mins that we saw til we stopped looking and continued on our travels.. Please find enclosed the three pics I took and a couple of close ups of those pics… please note on the 3rd pic with the houses in view (from a different angle) u can see some birds just above those houses and they look nothing like those dots just above them.. Anyway thnx in advance if you’ve read this far and I hope u can find a quite logical explanation for this encounter. Also you have to zoom right in and may find in uploading these pics it impedes the quality somewhat..

Thanks to never-ending reports of encounters and sightings, UFOs are easily one of the most recognized and well-known icons of modern pop culture. In fact, the fascination has even spawned whole religions with UFOs and aliens as the centerpiece. Of course, we also mustn’t forget the different UFO conspiracy theories being continuously peddled by people who either really want to know the truth or are just plain wacko. In any case, it’s certain that these conspiracy theories will never go out of style, especially when most of them are just downright insane.
10.There Is An Alien Satellite Hovering Over Earth
This conspiracy theory states that a 13,000-year-old satellite called the Black Knight is orbiting our planet. As the story goes, Nikola Tesla was the first man to discover its existence after he began receiving radio signals in 1899 which he believed came from space, a claim also made by amateur radio operators in the early 20th century. Later on, newspaper reports in the 1950s and ’60s detailing the discovery of a mysterious object in space coupled with supposed photographic evidence helped to fuel belief in the Black Knight’s existence.
If this supposed satellite really does exist, then why is it there? According to Scottish writer Duncan Lunan, the Black Knight satellite is actually a space probe that contains a map to a faraway alien planet called Epsilon Bootis, and the unidentified radio signals are in fact an attempt by those inhabitants to communicate with humans. Although skeptics have sought to debunk the alien satellite as nothing more than space junk or debris, believers have continued to insist otherwise.
9. MacArthur And Alien Warfare In The Future
Did Douglas MacArthur, the man who led the US against the Japanese and later the Koreans and Chinese, foresee a future war against aliens? According to a supposed speech he made in 1955, MacArthur warned that all countries of the Earth should unite, because the next war would involve humanity against aliens from other planets. Conspiracy theorists closely tie the general’s statements with his alleged involvement in the creation of the ambiguous Interplanetary Phenomenon Unit, a government agency supposedly tasked with investigating mysterious UFO crashes in the 1950s and which was later absorbed by the Air Force. As the story goes, the IPU’s findings that UFOs constituted a threat to national and global security was what prompted MacArthur to render his speech.
MacArthur’s statements, although somewhat sensationalized later on by the media, nonetheless manifested his belief that someday in the future, all of us might experience a real-life version of Independence Day.
8. The US Government Secretly Sent Astronauts To Another Planet
According to this conspiracy theory, the administration of President JFK—and, later, Johnson—allegedly sent astronauts to a faraway planet called Serpo. The ambitious project began after the US government supposedly saved the life of an alien whose spacecraft crashed in Roswell. In return, the grateful alien established an exchange program with the government and made arrangements for two spaceships to pick it up along with a dozen specially trained astronauts in 1965. After 37 light-years, the astronauts finally reached Serpo and spent more than a decade learning about the planet and its inhabitants, a race called Ebens.
According to them, the Ebens numbered more than 600,000 but lived in a peaceful, government-free community. After 13 years, the team finally returned to Earth four members short after two of them died and another two chose to stay on Serpo. Unfortunately, there are no surviving members of the team today, as all of them supposedly succumbed to the high radiation levels brought on by the two suns of Serpo.
7. Jesus Was An Alien
Remember the belief that the gods that ancient people worshiped and revered were actually aliens? If that theory is to be believed, then Jesus might have also been one, a fact that is supposedly being suppressed by the Church. As the theory goes, all the circumstances surrounding Jesus’ life hinted at extraterrestrial origins. His “virgin birth,” for instance, could be attributed to aliens artificially inseminating Mary, which in turn would explain why he could perform miraculous feats as well as communicate with otherworldly beings such as angels (who themselves were actually aliens).
Believers also point to Jesus’ statements that he was “not of this world” as hints of his real heritage. The theory goes on to say that after his resurrection, Jesus was beamed up into a spaceship and that the Catholic Church later suppressed the rest of the details by marking books such as the Epistles of the Apostles as apocryphal.
6. The US Battled Nazi UFOs In Antarctica And Lost
Although the official explanation for the unprecedented US expedition to Antarctica in 1946 was to map out the area and deny the Soviets a foothold at the same time, conspiracy theorists believe that the voyage itself was really a secret operation to track down a hidden Nazi base. According to them, the surviving Nazis—including Hitler, in some versions—escaped to their fortress in the frozen wasteland with the help of advanced UFO technology. The US, armed with this information, then mounted a clandestine military campaign against them but were decisively defeated and forced to retreat.
In reality, it was actually the bad weather that compelled the US expedition to leave the area. However, that hasn’t stopped conspiracy theorists (especially neo-Nazis) from celebrating the “victory” and continuing to hold out on the hope that a fleet of Nazi UFOs will one day come out of Antarctica and start World War II.
5. The US Has A Secret Space Fleet
Remember Gary McKinnon, the notorious Scottish hacker whom the US tried to unsuccessfully extradite after he broke into the military’s database in search of evidence of UFO activity? According to his supporters, the reason for the “extraordinary” persecution that McKinnon has been facing is because he did discover something in the US military’s files, namely a secret space program called the Solar Warden.
According to them, the US is merely using NASA as a front to maintain a fleet of spaceships secretly floating in orbit. This fleet, which is also jointly led by the United Nations and counts several nationalities among its crew, is supposedly mandated to protect the Earth and the rest of the solar system from evil local terrorists and interstellar groups. As to how the US managed to get the technology, it was supposedly provided by an age-old group of extraterrestrial civilizations called “Star Nations” who also charged the country with leading this secret fleet.
4. The 2012 Olympics Alien Invasion Conspiracy
While the rest of the world was too busy rooting for their teams during the 2012 Olympics, fringe groups everywhere were preparing for what they believed to be an impending alien invasion. In reality, however, this unexpected invasion would be nothing more than a gigantic ruse perpetrated by a super-alliance of Freemasons, Rothschilds, Illuminati, and every other shadowy group in existence. Their goal would be the establishment of the New World Order, which would be headed by none other than Prince William.
As evidence for this massive conspiracy, believers pointed to London’s two alien-like Olympic mascots Wenlock and Mandeville, which organizers unveiled years earlier as proof that the plan had been set in motion. They also pointed to various locations in London with biblical names such as Great Eastern Road and Temple Mills Lane which would be utilized heavily by the conspirators. Although the Olympics came and went without much incident, conspiracy theorists insisted that the only reason why it didn’t happen was because the “forces of good” prevailed over the evil schemers.
On par with some of the most eerily mysterious cases of missing planes, the baffling disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 has spawned a host of conspiracy theories seeking to explain how a massive plane that was guided and tracked by modern technology could have inexplicably vanished into thin air on March 8, 2014. One of the most bizarre theories, however, is the one stating that a UFO abducted the plane in mid-flight.
According to those who advocate this theory, their claims are supported by the head of the Malaysian air force, Rodzali Daud, who reportedly stated that their radar had picked up the signal of an “unidentified flying object” near the area before the plane went missing. They also cited the virtual lack of debris as proof of the alien abduction. Even more frightening is the fact that 1 in 10 Americans apparently believe this theory, according to a survey conducted by CNN.
2. The Plan To Deceive The World With A Hologram
Remember that strange event in 2009 when a mysterious blue light formed a gigantic spiral over the night sky of Norway? Although explanations ranged from a unique version of the northern lights to a Russian missile test gone awry, conspiracy theorists held that it was yet another failed attempt at executing Project Blue Beam. According to its original proponent, the deceased conspiracy theorist Serge Monast, Project Blue Beam was a joint effort by the US military, the UN, DARPA, NASA, and the University of Alaska to develop futuristic technology that would allow them to usher in a New World Order.
The multi-step process to taking over the world would include scaring people all over the planet with a huge holographic display of an alien invasion while at the same time projecting the image of a deity who would promise salvation to them. After everyone presumably bowed and surrendered everything to this godlike figure, the conspirators—having successfully broken the will of the people to fight back—would then implement the New World Order.
1. The CIA Killed JFK To Prevent Him From Knowing The ‘Truth’
Of all the crazy conspiracy theories surrounding JFK’s death, this one takes the cake. According to this theory, Kennedy—who reportedly experienced a UFO sighting himself sometime in 1963—demanded just 10 days before his assassination that the CIA give him full disclosure in their investigations on these “unidentified flying objects” and then share all the information with NASA. The end goal for the disclosure, he envisioned, was to put Soviet fears of American espionage to rest—and perhaps even persuade them to join the US in a joint exploration program. The CIA then and there decided to have him killed off.
The conspiracy theory itself would be dismissed as wildly crazy were it not for the existence of the document known as the “burned memo.” Allegedly revealed by someone identifying himself as ex-CIA, the partially burned paper—which contains the alleged CIA instructions to assassinate Kennedy for sticking his nose where it didn’t belong—has helped to encourage the view that t{ he CIA never wanted JFK to know the truth. Of course, it’s highly likely that the burned memo is a fake, making this one of the craziest theories ever.
Marc V. is always open for a conversation, so do drop him a line sometime.
Ufologists say they have spotted a UFO in a NASA photo from the 1969 Apollo 10 mission. The UFO appears in the old NASA photo as a “large object” in orbit around Earth.
The Apollo 10 mission was the “dress rehearsal” for the Apollo 11 mission. The mission is best remembered in the UFO community as the one during which the crew of the Apollo Command Module captured on camera one of the most famous and mysterious UFOs in human spaceflight history — the so-called “moon pigeons” that NASA scientists and engineers remain unable to explain.
The YouTube UFO hunter Streetcap1, who made the latest Apollo 10 UFO discovery and posted images to his YouTube channel on January 31, 2015, describes the UFO as a “large object found on old NASA photo.”
UFO Sightings Daily’s Scot Waring, describes it as a “classic UFO” with a “bulging center.”
“Caught in orbit around Earth during an Apollo 10 mission, this UFO looks awfully close to the Apollo module. The photo was taken in July of 1969 and shows a solid craft in high orbit. Notice the bulging center of the craft… much like we hear about in classic UFO reports.”
The video shows the UFO as it appears in the original NASA photo and also close-ups provided by Streetcap1. The UFO appears in orbit around Earth with a distinct and translucent oval bulge in the center.

Close-up Of UFO In Apollo 10 NASA Photo
Was it a man-made satellite in orbit around Earth in 1969?
As ufologists point out, there weren’t many man-made objects in orbit around Earth in 1969, and there certainly weren’t any of that size at the time.
Close-up Of UFO In Apollo 10 NASA Photo
Is this yet another photo glitch? You may examine the photo and close-ups carefully and come to an independent conclusion.
Apollo 10 was NASA’s fourth manned mission in the Apollo program launched on May 18, 1969. The mission was designated as an “F mission,” that is, a “dress rehearsal” for a future landing on the moon.
The mission crew included Commander Thomas P. Stafford, Command Module Pilot John W. Young, and Lunar Module Pilot Eugene A. Cernan.
Flying in the Lunar Module (LM), Cernan and Young approached the lunar surface at a distance of 8.4 nautical miles (15.6 km), a critical point at which powered descent to the lunar surface commences.
The close approach allowed the mission to test landing systems and procedures ahead of actual landing in the July, 1969 Apollo 11 mission. The Apollo 10 mission accomplished the task of calibrating the landing systems, ahead of the Apollo 11 mission.
The close approach also allowed the crew to map the lunar surface in search of a safe landing spot for the Apollo 11 mission.
This is not the first time that a UFO sighting has been reported in connection with the Apollo 10 mission. Probably the best known during the Apollo 10 mission was the so-called “moon pigeons” UFO sighting which occurred after the Lunar Module, carrying Stafford and Cernan, approached the lunar surface.
While trying to secure a radar lock to help the Lunar Module dock back to the Command Module, the transponders malfunctioned. During the anxious moments that followed, the Command Module’s color TV camera filming the Lunar Module’s descent from above (see video) captured a white bird-like object moving across the lunar surface. The object, with the aerodynamic shape of a flying craft with wings, was observed briefly but clearly before it disappeared.
And soon after the sighting, the computers began functioning normally again and the Lunar Module was able to dock back to the Command Module despite a moment of fright in which the module spun widely and almost crashed due to an error by the crew.
ET and UFO researchers have speculated about the “moon pigeons” sighting, with many suggesting that it was an alien UFO trying to warn humans to stay away from the moon.
The latest UFO sighting by Streetcap1 could only further establish the conviction in the UFO community that an alien civilization was monitoring humanity’s early space flights.

Is Atlantis in Indonesia? Researcher Claims to Uncover Hidden Civilization
Is Atlantis in Indonesia? Researcher Claims to Uncover Hidden Civilization
February 1, 2015 - Is our understanding of the development of mankind completely wrong? Are there lost civilizations which would require us to throw out all of our history books? Did cities like Atlantis really exist?
Orthodox historical thought would state that the first permanent establishments were developed in Mesopotamia (Modern Iraq) around 8,000-6,000 years ago. The Kurdish city of Erbil often claims to be the oldest (at around 6000 BC), although the Syrian capital of Damascus also claims to be the oldest continually inhabited city in the world. Generally, however, it is accepted humans only began to cultivate land and create permanent settlements following the end of the Ice Age around 9,600 BC, with most cities developing around 3500 BC.
In Europe, the oldest megalithic sites date to around 3000 BC, with the famous Stonehenge dating to around 2400-1800 BC. Athens - the city often claimed to be the basis of Western civilization - was founded around the same time, with Rome being founded later in 753 BC.
Ancient civilizations such as Atlantis have long been declared as nothing but myths and legend, but since 2011, Danny Natawidjaja - an Indonesian geologist with the Research Center for Geotechnology at the Indonesian Institute of Sciences - hopes to change that.
What Has Been Discovered?
Natawidjaja claims he has uncovered evidence that humans may have settled and built major civilizations in the Upper Paleolithic era, especially in Indonesia. Up to this point, most of the evidence of modern humans from this period comes from Europe and consists of cave art and basic figurines, not major settlements. Natawidjaja claims:
Everything we’ve been taught about the origins of civilization may be wrong. Old stories about Atlantis and other great lost civilizations of prehistory, long dismissed as myths by archaeologists, look set to be proved true.
So what has he actually found? Natawidjaja's research primarily concerns a megalithic site at Gunung Padang in West Java Province of Indonesia. The site was first discovered in 1914, and it was believed to simply be a series of terraces cut into a hilltop 300-ft high hill. On the top, blocks of columnar basalt were found, it was assumed the area had some early religious significance and it was dubbed the 'Mountain of Light' by the locals.
However, what Natawidjaja discovered is that Gunung Padang isn't a hill at all, but actually a 300-ft tall step pyramid. Carbon dating of the external terraces put their dates to around 500 to 1,500 BC, however the deeper structure of the pyramid is reportedly much, much older. Natawidjaja explained:
Gunung Padang is not a natural hill but a man-made pyramid and the origins of construction here go back long before the end of the last Ice Age. Since the work is massive even at the deepest levels, and bears witness to the kinds of sophisticated construction skills that were deployed to build the pyramids of Egypt or the largest megalithic sites of Europe, I can only conclude that we’re looking at the work of a lost civilization and a fairly advanced one.
Natawidjaja's team have bored holes deep into the structure and claim to have discovered some of the oldest structures in the world. At the depth of 5-15 meters or more, the team claims to have dated the building materials to around 13,000 to 23,000 years ago. This is much older than even the oldest settlements elsewhere.
This has led Natawidjaja to even make the bold claim that Gunung Padang could even be the lost city of Atlantis.
The City of Atlantis?
Let's be clear for a second. There is ZERO historical, archeological, or geological evidence for Atlantis. None whatsoever, and that includes yourhippie Aunt's 'crystal skull' that she bought from what weird smelling shop on the boardwalk.
Plato
All historians of any worth unanimously agree it is fictional. All references to Atlantis comes from two sources by the same author - Plato. In his works, Timaeus and Critias, Atlantis is an aggressive naval power that besieges Ancient Athens, which Plato used as a pseudo-historic embodiment of his ideal state. Athens defeats Atlantis (and is the first civilization to ever do so), and after falling out of favor with the gods, Atlantis sinks beneath the sea. The whole story was merely used to show the superiority of Plato's concept of a state. It wasn't a historical document, but a fiction.
Despite this, some have claimed Plato's inspiration for Atlantis could have been based on a real civilization. Furthermore, Plato states Atlantis disappeared around 9,000 BC, which does coincide with major geographical and ecological changes which could have wiped out an ancient civilization.
What Could Have Destroyed The Ancient Civilizations?
Between 10,800 and 9500 BC the Earth was frozen in a period known as the Younger Dryas and this cool period led to glaciers spreading around much of the Northern Hemisphere. When the Earth started warming again in 9600 BC there were major environmental changes, including large increases in ocean levels. Theoretically this could have flooded an ancient civilization akin to Atlantis.
James Kennett of the Department of Earth Science at the University of California Santa Barbara has also claimed this period coincided with a cosmic-impact event. His team has uncovered a large distribution of nanodiamonds of extraterrestrial origin at 32 sites in 11 countries over the Northern Hemisphere, suggested a meteor could have exploded in the atmosphere. Kennett also believes this could have wiped out ancient civilizations:
It’s not surprising that many large animal species, such as the mammoths, went extinct during this precise time and of course it had huge effects on our ancestors, not just those ‘primitive’ hunter gatherers the archaeologists speak of but also, I believe, a high civilization that was wiped from the historical record by the upheavals of the Younger Dryas.
Unfortunately, although this kind of belief is supported by people working with historical and geologic institutions, it is not widely held within the general academic community.
Is It Really a Hidden Civilization?
President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono at Gunung Padang
Gunung Padang is particularly controversial, with the research methods at the site being criticized. Furthermore, many of the people supporting the claims of Natawidjaja are pseudo-historians of dubious credibility, such as Graham Hancock, or importantly, politicians.
Natawidjaja has also made his own odd claims, including that he has found a golden electronic device on the site which is thousands of years old. So far he's been unable to actually show it to anyone. It seems his ideas are allowed to persist because they are supported by the Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono. Indeed, the site has become incredibly political and some have accused the research as coming secondary to flag-waving.
A group of Indonesian archaeologists and experts recently signed a petition criticizing the site. One vulcanologist, Sutikno Bronto, merely thinks Gunung Padang is simply a neck of a volcano, while another expert, who wished not to be named due to the President's interest in the site, explained:
In archaeology we usually find the 'culture' first … Then, after we find out the artefact's age we'll seek out historical references to any civilisation which existed around that period. Only then will we be able to explain the artefact historically. In this case, they 'found' something, carbon-dated it, then it looks like they created a civilisation around the period to explain their finding.
With this in mind, there may still be many more mysteries about Gunung Padang

Alien Footprints And UFO Found Carved In Rock
Alien Footprints And UFO Found Carved In Rock
Ancient footprints on a rock and a nearby engraving of a mysterious flying object are causing a stir in a small Indian village.
In Piska Nagri village, on the outskirts of Ranchi City in Jharkahnd State, geologist Nitish Priyadarshi has been studying large footprints that, according to local lore, may signify the presence of gods from the sky landing on site. The footprints are on a rock and look like they were of those wearing wooden sandals commonly worn thousands of years ago in the region. One set of footprints measures 11 inches in length and 5 inches in width, and another set in the same area measures 10 inches by 4.5 inches. God-kings of Indian mythology Lord Rama and Lord Lakshmana are believed to have spent time in the area in search of Rama’s wife, Sita.
Priyadarshi said the imprints are on granite rock, and thus were likely carved there rather than imprinted on the hard substance. “It may have been made by the local people manually at that time in memory of the visitors,” he said. What Priyadarshi finds interesting is the engraved image of a flying object next to the footprints. “The footprints and the flying object are on the same piece of rock on each other’s side. Maybe they were engraved to show that the two king gods arrived at the place on a flying object,” Priyadarshi said. The age of the footprints has still not been ascertained. “Seeing the weathering stage [foot prints found here are weathered] of the foot prints it can be said that the age of the foot prints may be thousands year old,” he said.
There have been many discoveries of ancient footprints around the world. Many of them are thousands of years old and are both natural (left by ancient inhabitants) and carved, denoting some meaning. The Romans carved footprints before a journey as protective rites. Footprints were carved upon leaving for a journey and as thanksgiving for a safe return. In Ireland and northern Europe, rock footprints were closely associated with kingship or chieftainship. Priyadarshi said: “We live in a highly advanced, technical world, but there are nevertheless a great many mysteries all around us. Ancient places and mysterious beings, sunken worlds and cultures, landscapes imbued with symbolism, unexplained apparitions, and unbelievable finds from ancient times all of these remain mysteries for humankind, despite intense investigations.”

UFO BASE FOUND IN HIMALAYAS
UFO BASE FOUND IN HIMALAYAS
BANGALORE, INDIA – Indian and Chinese authorities have confirmed the existence of an underground UFO base in the Himalayas.
Kongka La is the low ridge pass in the Himalayas in the disputed India-China border area in Ladakh. The Chinese held northeastern part is known as Aksai Chin and Indian South West is known as Ladakh. This was where Indian and Chinese army fought major war in 1962. The area is one of the least accessed area in the world and by agreement the two countries do not patrol that part of the border.
This is where the underground UFO base is located.
According to the locals on the Indian and Chinese side, this is where UFOs are seen coming out of the ground on a regular basis. According to many, the UFO underground bases are in this region and both the Indian and Chinese Government haven known this for a very, very long time.
They are publicly confirming its existence.
“India has found an active UFO base in The Himalayas. We are working with China and the U.N. to discuss how to handle this alien incursion,” said Indian Defense Minister, A.K. Antony. “We do not want our people to be alarmed. We are confident we can contain this threat from an alien culture.”
UFO expert, Dr. John Malley, of the U.N. Panel on Extraterrestrials, visited the site (with Frank Lake of WWN) and has confirmed that the spaceships observed entering and exiting the base were from Planet Gootan. “The spaceships had a purple light emanating from the bottom of their ship, and distinct markings on the under side. This is a classic Gootan ship. It is not, however, one of their battleships.”
Dr. Malley has been touring the globe, speaking to governments about the ongoing alien invasion (which he believes will last until December 2015) and how to best confront the aliens. “We have to behave in a proper way when dealing with the Gootans. If not, we are doomed,” Malley said.
Why did India release the information now?
They had no choice.
Recently, some Hindu pilgrims on their way to Mount Kailash from the Western pass, came across strange lights in the sky. The local guides while in the Chinese territory told them that this was nothing new and is a normal phenomenon from Kongka Pass area the tensed border between India and China. They were first turned by the Chinese guard posts as they were refused entry from the Chinese side and then when they tried to approach the site from Indian side, the Indian border patrol also turned them down in spite of their permit to travel between the two countries.
One of the pilgrims (Sukhbir Siwach) is a writer for The Times of India (the biggest English language newspaper in India) and he had planned an expose on the cover-up of the alien base by India. The government was unable to stop him (a brave writer) – so the Indian government went public with information, some say in order to “control” the information.
UPDATE: The Indian government (with help from the China, Russia and the U.S.) has scrubbed ALL mentions of this online and is publicly denying what they have already said publicly. The outrageous cover-up continues!
WWN examined the site with Dr. Malley. The locals in the aeras start laughing when they are asked about these UFO sightings. According to them the extra-terrestrial presence is well known and is in deep into the ground. They believe the Indian or Chinese Governments covered up the fact for some reason. But they are happy that they are now disclosing it to the world.
Why didn’t they report it to the global press? They were told to keep quiet or face death.
The area where the UFO base is located is where the Euresian plate and the Indian plate have created convergent plate boundaries. Convergent plate boundaries are formed where one plate dives under another. Consequently, this is one of the very few areas in the world where the depth of the earth’s crust twice as thick as in other places. The opposite is found in hot spots like Yellow Stone National Park in America where the earth’s crust in thin.
Perfect for alien spaceships.
The U.N. Panel on Extraterrestrials has called an emergency meeting for September 22nd to deal with the problem of the UFO base. Let’s hope they come up with a peaceful solution for dealing with the Gootans.

Background
By Martin Jasek, M.Sc., P. Eng. (Investigator)
I first met Kevin on July 8, 2000 while attending a UFO conference in St. Paul, Alberta. I had just finished a presentation on Yukon UFO sightings when he approached me. He was very quiet and reserved and basically told me that he used to live in Ross River, Yukon and had heard and seen strange things up there. He proceeded to write down his contact information for me as the hustle and bustle of the conference prevented a personal conversation. The next day, as the conference was drawing to a close, Kevin approached me again. He said he was leaving now as he had a fairly lengthy drive home. But before he left, he wanted to show me something so that I would know what he was talking about when we later talked on the phone. He then showed me the palms of his hands. Wow, what he showed me certainly peaked my interest and he briefly stated some of the background. I'll leave it to the reader to read through "Kevin's Account" as not to take away from the incredible experience.
After the conference I returned to my home in Whitehorse and Kevin returned to his life in a small Alberta town. It was fortunate that with my work I was able to travel to many parts of the Yukon and at my earliest opportunity (Sept 12, 2000), I traveled up the North Canol Road. Prior to the trip, Kevin provided a detailed description of the location where his experience took place and narrowed it down to a 6 km stretch of road, west of a vacant RCMP trailer. I took photographs of five locations along this stretch that would potentially match Kevin's description. There was one location in particular that matched every detail very well. I mailed all sets of five location photos to him and he quickly replied that one location, the same one that I favoured, was the correct one. There "is no doubt in his mind" he replied. He added information to the photos such as the trajectory of the UFO, the location where the aliens stood, etc. The graphics depicting what Kevin witnessed are of the actual locations. We hope that these along with the artwork add to the realism of Kevin's account.
This article has been a long time in the making and I have got to know Kevin over the years. He is a very honest, sincere and reserved individual. Not at all the type looking for attention. I have no reason not to believe his entire story. I would like to thank him for his patience and understanding for the time it took me to put this presentation together.
I would also like to thank Gord Heath, Paddy D. and Jim G. for their help with the artwork and illustration graphics.
In August or September 1987 (later determined to be Wednesday September 2, 1987), I left Ross River (where I lived) and headed up the North Canol Road by myself on my motor bike for moose (hunting). (Maps of the area)
I was planning on spending 3 days in the area between Sheldon Lake and Macpass. A guy I worked with and a friend of his were to leave a day later and I was to meet them for some fishing. We were all to stay at a trailer at Dewhurst Creek.
I left Ross River early in the morning and the temperature started to drop. Then it started to rain very hard and very cold. When I got to Gravel Creek, I stopped at Art John's Cabin and put on extra clothes while standing under the edge of his roof. I knew the rain would not stop, so I got back on my bike and headed off.
I arrived at the trailer ½ hour before dark, very cold and very tired. I lit up a fire, cooked supper and went straight to bed looking forward to the morning hunt. Over night the rain had stopped.
At daybreak (September 3, 1987) I put my gear and my gun on my bike and headed towards Macpass. 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 pee.
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 realised 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".
*(before this, all I knew about aliens was that they were supposed to be little green men.)
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 honoured 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.
The next day I met up with the other two guys and never said anything to them.
Additional Notes
1) When the being shot me with the flashlight device, I experienced what they call "the cone of silence". It seemed like time stood still and nothing existed but me, like I was pulled from reality. It was the most absolute quiet ever imagined. I was really scared and tried to yell "No!", but all that came out was a gnarly growl. Everything went dark and I had the sensation of hurtling skyward at a terrific speed. I also felt that I was being stretched, as if my feet were on the ground and my upper body was 20 feet above. My whole body shooting skyward.
2) When I was watching the UFO move slowly in front of me, I thought, I better get a picture of this. My camera was just inside my jacket in my shirt pocket and was very quick and easy to get at. A sort of calming feeling came over me and I felt like, "It's no big deal", "don't worry about it", "I don't have to have a picture".
Afterwards I thought, what bizarre behaviour. I kept 2 cameras on the go all the time and I was always on the lookout for photo opportunities. To think a U.F.O. photo is not important is insane.
3) While driving from Ross River to the trailer, I had a feeling that something unusual might happen, but never expected this.
4) Before this incident happened, I had no interest or knowledge about any of this. So one day I decided to write everything down that I could think of. (This original write-up has been misplaced) Afterwards I bought a couple of books on UFOs etc. and after reading them, realized that I'm not the only one, and that my experiences are not all just me.
5) Although I wanted to tell people about this, I was very reluctant to tell this story. Since it happened, I have told it to less than 10 people. Every time I tell someone, I feel like I just broke a promise I made to them that I wouldn't tell anybody. This feeling may just be me or it may be programmed into me to keep me quiet. I don't know.
I decided to tell it as more of an awareness thing. I'm sure other people have had experiences but are held back.
6) When I got back to Ross River, I was thinking about the sensation in my hands when I sat up on the bed. (with the beings). I looked down at my palms and was startled to see a scoop mark in the palm of each hand. I had not seen these before. Over the next couple of years, I asked two doctors and four nurses if they knew what this was and they all said no, they had never seen anything like it before.
In September 2000, I asked my doctor about it and he said yes he knows of it and he told me the name of it (can't remember it now).
But they had no idea what causes it. Coincidence? I don't know.
He started off by sharing a report of being the co-pilot on a TWA flight from Saint Louis to San Francisco, the flight had been delayed several hours due to mechanical problems, but finally got off the ground late in the evening heading West. As the flight approached the state of Nevada Air Traffic Control (ATC) broke the silence stating that traffic was in the area and requested they make an immediate 90 degree turn to the North and wait further instructions, an odd request at nearly 1am and 36,000 feet.
Usually little or no air traffic existed at this hour of the morning, especially at this altitude. They immediately followed the instructions given by ATC. As they were heading North he happened to look down and see what appeared to be an ILS turn on, on the dark desert surface below. For those who are not familiar, an ILS is an Instrument Landing System. This ILS was different though, it was a 3-dimensional hologram, something he had never seen before as an airline pilot. It was also blue with violet light crossing at 90 degree angles.
The next thing he noticed was that in the upper right hand corner of their cockpit windshield there appeared to be maybe 20-30 firefly type lights flitting around way up high in the sky, they then began making hard right angle turns and shot one after the other down the holographic ILS until every one of them was on the ground. Then the ILS turned off and it was pitch black again on the ground.
He turned to the pilot and asked, “Did we just see that?” The pilot looked at him and answered, “No sir, we did not”. ATC then came back on the hadio and said that they were now clear of any traffic and gave them a new course heading to San Francisco. The exact location of where the holographic ILS opened up and the lights in the sky made hard right angle turns to land was Area 51 he told me. The year was 1988. Source: MUFON
Les enlèvements extraterrestres et la constitution d'un AMMACH Français
Les enlèvements extraterrestres et la constitution d'un AMMACH Français
Partout dans le monde des humains déclarent avoir fait l'objet d'un enlèvement par des extraterrestres.
Ce phénomène désigné généralement sous le terme abduction en ufologie présente la caractéristique d'être sensiblement identique d'un témoignage à l'autre.
A chaque fois la victime est tirée de son sommeil et se trouve paralysée. Au pied de son lit 2 à 3 extraterrestres l'observent puis cherchent à la transporter dans leur vaisseau.
S'ils y parviennent, la victime subit alors un panel d'actes "médicaux".
Dans certains cas il y a prélèvement de d'éléments biologiques (sang, sperme, ovules ...).
Certaines personnes affirment être régulièrement enlevées comme si elles étaient poursuivies tout au long de leur existence par des aliens.
Certaines victimes féminines se déclarent comme fécondées pendant un premier enlèvement puis à nouveau enlevées afin que les aliens retirent le fœtus obtenu une fois qu'il s'est convenablement développé
Certaines personnes déclarent être poursuivies par les extraterrestre tout au long de leur vie. Leur descendance peut aussi être concernée. On parle dans ce cas d'abductions générationnelles.
Il faut aussi souligner que ces enlèvements laissent parfois des traces sur les victimes qui déclarent subir la mise en place d'implants dans leur corps (le célèbre chirurgien Américain le Dr Roger Leir s'était spécialisé dans l'extraction de ces éléments - voir le lien ici).
Dans certains cas des abductés ne sont jamais réapparus.
Les statistiques indiquent qu'entre 1 à 3% des humains pensent avoir connu ce type d'expérience.
Explications scientifiques
Les scientifiques essaient généralement d'expliquer ces évènements par des phénomènes liés au fonctionnement du cerveau durant le sommeil et qui est capable de générer des hallucinations ou des paralysies nocturnes.
Parfois les scientifiques expliquent tout simplement ces évènements par une pseudo démence des victimes (lien ici)
L'explication scientifique est elle concevable ou suffisante ?
Non car les évènement sont incomparables, même si "sur le papier" les symptômes semblent identiques
Pour avoir échangé avec des personnes qui connurent les deux, je peux vous affirmer que cela n'a rien à voir.
- Une personnes qui expérimente un épisode de paralysie nocturne est réveillée mais elle ne peut pas bouger. En résumé une partie de son cerveau fonctionne en mode éveillé mais une autre partie est en mode endormi. Cette expérience se conclue par un endormissement ou un réveil progressif. C'est une expérience stressante certes mais normale que nous devons tous connaitre un jour ou l'autre.
- Une personne "abduquée" est différemment paralysée. Elle a conscience de la présence des aliens et connait généralement une peur panique non pas liée au phénomène physique qu'elle connait mais à ce qu'elle voit ou à ce qu'elle ne voit pas voir à savoir les aliens.
Quels effets génèrent ces enlèvements ?
Les personnes abduquées régulièrement connaissent généralement de forts traumatismes résiduels qui peuvent les amener à une désocialisation progressive, ou, à l'absorption de substances psychotropes (drogue, alcool ...).
Existe t'il des organisations qui accompagnent les abduqués ?
Dans le passé ces accompagnement était d'ordre personnel. On peut citer le formidable travail réalisé par Mme Karla Turner (malheureusement décédée maintenant) dans ce cadre
Mais progressivement certaines structures de mettent en place.
C'est par exemple actuellement le cas en Grande Bretagne avec la constitution d'un formidable regroupement.
Le 31 Mai 2014 se tiendra à Hastings la conférence annuelle dite AMMACH (pour Anomalous Mind Management Contactee Helpline). Plus de 1 000 personnes s'y réuniront.
Cette rencontre offrira un lieu de rencontre pour les personnes dont les expériences avec les aliens ont parfois laissé craindre qu'ils allaient être traitées comme des dérangées.
Parlons-ovni suivra attentivement de déroulement de cet évènement.
A quand la même chose en France ?
Peut être nous revient il de l'organiser ?
De nombreux cas d'enlèvements sont recensés chez nous chaque année alors pourquoi ne pas nous lancer dans cette opération ?
Parlons-ovni se tient donc prêt pour initier cette démarche et dans l'attente de toute bonne volonté pour démarrer.
The video was taken by George Taylor and appears to show three balls of light in the sky as a helicopter banks in the sky above the forest.
UFO Lights over Rendlesham Forest 2015 was filmed with three balls of light in the sky yesterday afternoon (Sunday 25th Jan) George stated “while walking around Rendlesham Forest and couldn’t believe what I was seeing! Had a very weird feeling that I shouldn’t have been there”.
He quickly recorded it on the phone and is seeking answers to what he witnessed and if anyone else witnessed anything similar.
“Very strange! I know Rendlesham has a long history with UFO sightings but didn’t really believe in it as I haven’t seen anything odd in all the years I’ve lived here until yesterday! Regularly take my dogs for a walk around the area and have never seen anything as strange as this. Does anyone have any idea what this may have been”?
What could this be? Military Exercise?
Rendlesham Forest is owned by the Forestry Commission and consists of about 5.8 square miles (15 km2) of coniferous plantations, interspersed with broadleaved belts, heathland and wetland areas. It is located in the county of Suffolk, about 8 miles (13 km) east of the town of Ipswich.

Orange-Yellow UFOs Glide Over Three Florida Towns [VIDEO]
Orange-Yellow UFOs Glide Over Three Florida Towns [VIDEO]
On Saturday night, several eyewitnesses in three Florida locations reported seeing unusual groups of lights in the sky, sometimes forming a gliding triangle pattern.
At approximately 6:35 p.m., YouTube user Jennifer Schee saw three lights above a West Palm Beach, Florida, highway. The red arrows in the image above point to two of those lights behind a road sign. Schee posted a comment to the ufocaptor.com page, describing the bright aerial orbs that she videotaped on her phone.
This first video shows three high-flying lights moving in a triangular pattern:
"I saw one first, then it disappeared over the ocean," Schee wrote. "Then I saw the three in this video. Then there were two that came that I have in another video. Then another. Then another. They all followed the same path and they all disappeared over the ocean up in the sky, not down over the horizon."
Schee wasn't alone during her sighting, and another eyewitness, Katelyn, commented on her similar observations about 13 miles north of West Palm Beach.
"I saw three, but one at a time in my neighborhood going towards the east coast, each one bright and when their light disappeared, I kept tracking it with my eye and could see a silver dot still gliding through the air in Palm Beach Gardens. It was going west to east all three of them," Katelyn commented on ufocaptor.com.
Here's the second video recorded by Jennifer Schee on Saturday:
Another ufocaptor commenter, Mark Testerman, wrote that he and others saw unusual lights, about a half hour after Schee's sighting, and 170 miles northwest of West Palm Beach.
"We saw these same red lights tonight ... but we saw 12 in all in a jagged line in Lakeland, Florida. We didn't video it while we were driving. They were heading in a south direction, then just turned and headed back the other direction. Glad this was caught on tape."
This map shows the three Florida locations where the lights were seen:
In trying to determine exactly what these lights were, it would help if anyone besides Schee captured them on video, from other vantage points.
On the surface and with limited further details, the objects seem characteristic of Chinese Lanterns.
Check out these lanterns being launched from Whitstable, U.K. in 2008:
In the following composite image, on the left is one of the lights videotaped on Saturday by Jennifer Schee in Florida; on the right, a Chinese Lantern over the U.K. in 2008:
We're not saying positively that Schee videotaped Chinese Lanterns -- just throwing out the possibility. Even Schee admitted she's mostly overly curious about it all.
"This is absolutely amazing and I would love to know what they were, even if they weren't 'alien spaceships.' Inquiring minds just want to know."
On todays “NASA search”, this orbiter image revealed its secrets when the Zoom and enlarge process started.
This is from PIA 19129 Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO)
When the “zoom process” started this rectangular hole appeared, It looks like there is a enforced frame aorund it also, and notice the big object “parked” outside the entrance. This hole must be milewide. Range to target site: 273.8 km (171.1 miles) see original Nasa link
A good question would be whats comes in and out of a hole that size ??
The frame around the hole is marked with red arows, The yellow line is pointing out an object “parked” outside the hole. Notice the little weird shaped thing on top of the object.!

Academy Award (R) nominated documentary filmmaker William Gazecki (Waco: “Rules of Engagement”) offers a compelling and provocative look at the mysterious phenomenon of Crop Circles.
Full of never-before-seen footage and interviews with leading Crop Circle researchers and scientists, Crop “Circles: Quest For Truth is a fascinating, in-depth exploration of prevailing theories about the origin and nature of Crop Circles and the possible implications for us and Planet Earth.
The Phoenix Lights returned to the Arizona skies, sort of. But extraterrestrials weren’t the source of the aerial lights this time.
Reuters reports that Pepsi attempted to recreate the well-known UFO incident on Friday, January 30 as part of its Super Bowl marketing campaign, leading up to the Pepsi-sponsored halftime show.
Something mysterious is happening in the sky above Phoenix...
The company says they launched illuminated balloons that hovered approximately 40 feet off the ground and were visible for miles. According to Reuters, “The company scrapped an earlier plan for more intense lights in order to comply with Federal Aviation Administration regulations to prevent interference with air traffic.”
Pepsi has been using the concept of “strange things happen in the desert” for its campaign. The company recently created a crop circle in the shape of its logo in a field near the University of Phoenix stadium where the Super Bowl will take take place.
Katy Perry is performing the Pepsi Super Bowl XLIX Halftime Show. It won’t be too surprising if Perry, a firm believer in extraterrestrial life, performs her hit song “E.T.” And, based on the hints dropped by Pepsi, UFOs and/or extraterrestrials could play a major role in the halftime show’s theme.
The extraterrestrial theme in Super Bowl commercials has been widespread in recent years. Let’s see how many advertisers use this theme in commercials that air during Super Bowl XLIX. If Pepsi is any indication, it could be a particularly ET-heavy year.
Zijn we dicht bij de ontdekking van de mysterieuze Planeet X?
Zijn we dicht bij de ontdekking van de mysterieuze Planeet X?
De ruimtesonde New Horizons van NASA komt dichter en dichter bij Pluto en haar vijf manen. Het is een kwestie van tijd voor we zullen zien wat niemand voor ons heeft gezien: heldere, duidelijke foto’s van de kleine ijzige planeet.
“We wachten allemaal op de foto’s,” zei Alen Stern, hoofdonderzoeker van New Horizons, aan CNN. “De beste beelden die we nu hebben, zijn een paar pixels die door de Hubble Space Telescope werden gemaakt. De beelden werden in 2010 uitgebracht, nadat 20 computers vier jaar lang gelijktijdig werkten om ze te produceren.”
Op de foto’s is een mysterieuze ijskoude en donkere massa te zien die seizoensgebonden veranderingen ondergaat in de kleur van het oppervlak en de helderheid.
Wetenschappers denken dat voorbij Pluto nog twee planeten staan, te weten Planeet X en Planeet Y. Een team van de Universiteit van Madrid suggereerde dat in de weinig bestudeerde binnenste Oortwolk ‘tenminste twee’ onbekende planeten staan.
Ver voordat wetenschappers onderzoek deden naar Planeet X gingen er al verhalen rond dat ruimteschepen vol jezuïeten van het Vaticaan naar Planeet X (of Nibiru), een ‘geheime’ planeet in ons zonnestelsel, zijn gevlogen.
Schrijver Nigel Watson zei: “Planeet X is een hoeksteen van de theorieën van Zecharia Sitchin. Na het bestuderen van Soemerische kleitabletten concludeerde hij dat de planeet Nibiru voorbij Neptunus stond en eens in de 3600 jaar in ons deel van het zonnestelsel opduikt.”
“Hij beweerde dat Nibiru in botsing is gekomen met Tiamat, een planeet die tussen Mars en Jupiter stond. Door de botsing ontstonden de planetoïdengordel en planeet aarde,” ging hij verder.
“Nibiru wordt bewoond door de Anunnaki, een hoogontwikkeld mensachtig ras, dat de aarde duizenden jaren geleden heeft bezocht om in Afrika goud te delven,” aldus Watson. “Ze hadden mijnwerkers nodig en creëerden met behulp van de genetica de Homo sapiens.”
“Het meeste hiervan kan niet worden bewezen en een dergelijke planeet strookt niet met de huidige aannames over het zonnestelsel,” zei hij. “Doordat dit soort ideeën erg populair zijn, wordt iedere nieuwe ontdekking in het zonnestelsel echter op de voet gevolgd in de hoop op bewijs voor het bestaan van Nibiru of een ander hemellichaam dat mogelijk wordt bewoond door aliens.”
According to Alissa Zhu, Earth houses some of the best evidence of space life – weird, adaptable, and way harder than mankind ever thought.
Ancient idea called Panspermia believes that seeds of life survive everywhere in the vast Universe. Spread by stellar rocks and dust-like spores as well as by man-made space debris, they start the process of evolution wherever they encounter right conditions to flourish.
Scientists have thought they knew the elements for life to survive, but with several plausible theories recently emerging, they’re becoming less confident. Despite the situation, they seem less eager to stretch observations and make productive discoveries.
Professor Kenneth Nealson investigated in early 80s about the reports of a mysterious phenomenon happening at the bottom of Lake Oneida in upstate New York.
The lake should have been rich in manganese oxide because snowmelt transported manganese from the mountains every spring into the lake. Manganese then mixed with oxygen as the winds stirred the water. The activity should have resulted in significant deposit of manganese oxide at the bottom of the lake. Mysteriously, it did not happen.
As an inorganic compound used for various purposes, MnO disappeared a thousand times faster than the expected rate geologically. The compound has been used as an additive for fertilizer and food as well as a catalyst in the manufacture of paints, ceramics, colored glass and many others. With the rapid disappearance of MnO, it appeared that something at the bottom of the lake also put the compound into real use.
Here come the extremophiles – microscopic organisms that go beyond scientific expectations by surviving in conditions that impossible for terrestrial life forms.
After several years of research, Nealson discovered that a microbe was breaking down metal, which typically considered impossible by science. The breakdown was found to be just part of its regular metabolic process. This lead Nealson to discover Shewanell a, a class of micro-bacteria with an affinity for raw electricity. Nealson and colleagues at USC now focus on finding alien life forms on Earth and on the possibility of putting such creatures to work in a variety of ways on behalf of mankind. More details about the subject can be read in the February 2015 issue of Popular Science.
Rockets glow against Alaska aurora in brilliant NASA image
January 31, 2015- When you think of NASA launches, you probably think of Florida and shuttle missions and massive rockets blasting into the sky. But NASA is busy launching all sorts of smaller projects that don't attract as much of the space glory. On January 26, the space agency sent four suborbital sounding rockets up into the sky from the Poker Flat Research Range in Alaska.
The launches were part of the Mesosphere-Lower Thermosphere Turbulence Experiment (M-TeX) and the Mesospheric Inversion-layer Stratified Turbulence (MIST) experiment. The rockets were designed to leave vapor trails that could be observed and tracked from the ground. NASA created the experiments to "investigate and enhance our understanding of how meteorological processes control the impact of solar processes on the Earth's atmosphere." Researchers hope to gain insights into the movement of air and changing temperatures in the atmosphere.
It's par for the course for NASA's scientific endeavors to also generate images that captivate and amaze space fans and the general public alike. The Hubble Space Telescope alone has been responsible for countless stunning views out into the wider universe. The rocket image from Alaska brings NASA's work a little closer to home, but it's just as stunning as a glimpse into a far away nebula or galaxy.
Last year we heard the exciting news that NASA intends to build a fully-operational warp drive in order to achieve faster-than-light (FTL) travel. At the time we saw some snazzy pieces of concept art and were told that theoretically warp drive is possible.
Of course, theoretically is very different from practically, and although NASA may be able to solve some equations on a whiteboard, it doesn't mean we can necessarily build a vehicle that can travel faster than light.
How Far Along Is the NASA Warp Drive?
Currently, NASA considers warp drives, hyperspace drives and any other potential forms of faster-than-light travel as in the 'speculation' stage of development. In NASA development cycles, this is extremely early. In fact, it is only the next stage on from the first stage of development, 'conjecture.'
NASA Development Stages
Conjecture
Speculation
Science
Technology
Application
Basically, we're a long way away from this:
Unfortunately, NASA now knows enough about FTL travel to deduce that it is essentially impossible, at least for now. It simply does not seem compatible with Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity - although others have suggested there may be ways around this, including using tachyons, wormholes, inflationary universe technology, spacetime warping, quantum paradoxes and a whole host of other methods I will not pretend to understand. More on these later.
Indeed, one of the major issues with FTL travel is that in some theories it is synonymous with time travel, which most scientists believe is ultimately far more impossible. This also opens up other issues such as creating time paradoxes, and causality violations. Those things really suck.
But Don't We Just Need To Go Really, Really Fast?
X-15 rocket plane
Some see breaking the speed of light as the next logical step after breaking the speed of sound - which is something humanity does pretty regularly. However, the difference of scale between these two achievements is astronomical. The speed of sound is a measly 343.2 meters a second (768 mph) and can be broken by various jet powered vehicles. Indeed, the experimental X-15 plane achieved the record-breaking speed of 4,520 mph, which is over 6 times the speed of sound and it achieved that in the 1960s.
Breaking the speed of light is very different. The speed of light is 299,792,458 meters a second, and its not simply something you can power through with a big-ass engine - even in the vacuum of space.
Furthermore, the sound barrier was broken by an object made of matter, not one made of sound. Matter consists of atoms and molecules which are connected to each other via electromagnetic fields, which is the very same stuff that light is made of.
So, in reality, breaking the speed of light requires breaking a barrier with the very same things that the barrier is made of. The real question is, how can an object travel faster than that which links its atoms?
Breaking The Theory of Relativity
The much vaunted Theory of Relativity consists of three major elements:
Measurements of various quantities are relative to the velocities of observers. In particular, space contracts and time dilates.
Spacetime: space and time should be considered together and in relation to each other.
The speed of light is nonetheless invariant, the same for all observers.
In laymen's terms, the theory of relativity simple explains what one traveler "sees" relative to another who is travelling a different speed. NASA explains it like this:
Imagine you are standing with your eyes closed by some train tracks. The only information you are receiving is based on sound. When a train passes by at speed tooting its horn, it sounds like the pitch and tone of the horn changes. In reality it doesn't. The horn merely sounds different due to the Doppler shift affect. To someone on board the train, the horn would have sounded different, as the tone would have been constant. This is similar to the theory of relativity.
However, the special theory of relativity also explains that the speed of light will always stay the same, regardless of the speed of the person observing it. Since we receive ALL of our information through light and electromagnetic forces, approaching and then breaking the constant speed of light would result in a major distortion of the information we receive which would affect our perception and how matter is held together.
Another consequence of Special Relativity is the amount of energy needed to break this barrier. Energy is needed to impart movement on an object, and to move faster you need more energy. When we start to approach the speed of light, the amount of energy we need explodes to levels essentially approaching infinity.
Ultimately, all this means we can't simply power through the speed of light.
But Is There Still A Way To Achieve Interstellar Travel?
Clearly, therefore, the way to travel the vast expanses of the universe is not to simply go faster. Instead, we need to figure out some way around the laws of Special Relativity.
Firstly, there is wormhole travel. Simply speaking, wormholes are short cuts in spacetime. Although the laws of physics prevent an object moving as fast as light within spacetime, theoretically we could distort and alter spacetime, bending it and connecting two points that used to be separated. In this sense, we don't take our ship out to a point in space, but bring that point in space to us by bending it.
However, the understanding of wormholes is still in its infancy and some scientists are not sure if its a viable option. Even if it was, we would need massive amounts of energy to bend space, while we also come up against those same old pesky time paradoxes. Furthermore, making a wormhole requires energy at both ends, meaning we'd still need to somehow previously reach the further point in space.
The other option involves Alcubierre's warp-drive, which is the theoretical warp drive NASA discussed last year. This works by wrapping a ship in two rings, which distort spacetime both in front and to the rear of the vessel. In theory this will create a "hotdog shaped warp bubble," with empty space in front and behind the ship. The space behind the ship is then expanded, which will push the vessel forward at phenomenal 'speed.'
NASA cite it is analogous with walking on a moving sidewalk that is moving faster than you are. The walkway has a definite start and end in spacetime, but you will travel between those two points quicker than if you merely walked on your own. The warp engine essentially makes a very fast moving sidewalk in space.
Unfortunately, to create this effect you will need negative energy, and it is still debated in physics if such a thing even exists. Most say 'no,' with some quantum physicists saying 'maybe.' Furthermore, they're not even sure if the warp would actually move faster than light, while there are still issues with time paradoxes.
Ultimately, NASA concludes by asking: "Is there any work being done to search for these breakthroughs?"

The history that we don’t know about is that there was a war of the Gods. The fallen angels went against the Most High aka the Great Glory and started having their way with Earth girls. The Great Glory gets sick of the whole thing and creates a massive flood. Erich puts everything together, when you pick up a bible and read: “When men began to increase in number on Earth and daughters were born to them, the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were beautiful, and they married any of them they chose.”

“There are two things I know with certainty about the UFO phenomena. One is that the phenomenon is real,” says author Robert Salas, “that is, real objects of unearthly origin are visiting our airspace. My second certainty is that the phenomenon of people being abducted by sentient beings who are operating these unknown craft, is also a reality these conclusions do not come hypotheses, guesses, theories, or concepts that I used to convince myself of these realities. They come from my life experiences.”
