Dit is ons nieuw hondje Kira, een kruising van een waterhond en een Podenko. Ze is sinds 7 februari 2024 bij ons en druk bezig ons hart te veroveren. Het is een lief, aanhankelijk hondje, dat zich op een week snel aan ons heeft aangepast. Ze is heel vinnig en nieuwsgierig, een heel ander hondje dan Noleke.

This is our new dog Kira, a cross between a water dog and a Podenko. She has been with us since February 7, 2024 and is busy winning our hearts. She is a sweet, affectionate dog who quickly adapted to us within a week. She is very quick and curious, a very different dog than Noleke.

    ANOTHER UFO is spotted flying over Las Vegas - weeks after family claimed ‘10ft aliens with large shiny eyes' were spotted in backyard and police dashcam footage filmed strange light crashing from the sky

    • Two beams of light can be seen in the sky, hovering next to one another in the new clip that was posted on social media 
    • It was filmed on Wednesday, June 22, at 10.30pm over Las Vegas. The unidentified objects were in the sky for '20 minutes straight' 

    Another unidentified object in the sky has been spotted flying over Las Vegas, weeks after a family claimed 10ft aliens with large shiny eyes were in their backyard and police footage filmed a strange light in the sky.  

    Two beams of light can be seen in the sky, hovering next to one another in the new clip that was posted on social media. 

    It was filmed on Wednesday, June 22, at 10.30pm over Las Vegas. The unidentified objects were in the sky for '20 minutes straight' according to the person who filmed it. 

    A second local resident then posted an image of their view from Thursday night, showing two interlocking white circular beams of light in the sky.

    Some people online speculated that it could have been the planet Venus lighting up the sky, but others claimed that it may be something else, considering the recent activity in Las Vegas. 

    Over the weekend, a green fireball, believed to be a meteor, was spotted falling from the sky by residents in San Diego, Tucson, and Las Vegas.   

    Meanwhile, the Las Vegas UFO mystery has deepened after police installed high-tech cameras outside the home where residents reported seeing '10ft aliens with large shiny eyes' in their backyard.

    Doug Poppa, a former police officer who has been following the story of the mysterious object falling from the sky from April 30, said it baffled him why the Las Vegas Metro Police Department placed surveillance cameras outside.

    He interviewed the family who made the call - and they told him that the cops installed the camera to 'protect' them from UFO fanatics who might bother them.

    Despite being skeptical, Poppa, who is a podcaster, said he now believes the family is somewhat credible.

    A Vegas officer’s body camera picked up the object at about 11:50pm on April 30, after a resident reported something '100 percent not human' on their property, local TV channel 8 News Now reported.

    The footage shows a bright blue ball of light traveling through the dark sky at speed.

    Approximately 39 minutes after the first call, another resident contacted 911, saying that there were two unknown entities in his backyard after he saw an object fall from the sky.

    'There’s like an 8-foot person beside it and another one is inside us [sic] and it has big eyes and it’s looking at us — and it’s still there,' the homeowner told police in audio obtained by the TV channel.

    During the initial 911 phone call about the alleged UFO and alien sighting, the caller said: 'In my backyard. I swear to God this is not a joke, this is actually — we’re terrified.

    'They’re very large. They’re like 8 foot, 9 feet, 10 foot. They look like aliens to us. Big eyes. They have big eyes. Like, I can’t explain it. And big mouth. They’re shiny eyes and they’re not human. They’re 100 percent not human,' he claimed.

    The responding officers expressed their trepidation at the odd events.

    'I’m so nervous right now,' one officer can be heard telling his partner.

    'I have butterflies, bro — saw a shooting star and now these people say there’s aliens in their backyard.'

    'I don’t believe in it but what I saw right now, I do believe in it,' one of the reported witnesses said to police.

    The area of the alleged sighting was searched, and the witnesses interviewed, but no new information was found.

    Fukushima UFO Photos, Big Muddy Monster, Pennsylvania Mothman, Another Vegas UFO and More Mysterious News Briefly

    Fukushima UFO Photos, Big Muddy Monster, Pennsylvania Mothman, Another Vegas UFO and More Mysterious News Briefly

    Paul Seaburn

    A roundup of mysterious, paranormal and strange news stories from the past week.

    When asked in an interview about allegations of secret UFO retrieval and reverse-engineering programs, US Senator and Senate Intelligence Committee Vice Chairman Marco Rubio of Florida revealed that multiple whistleblowers with “very high clearances and high positions within our government” “have come forward to share” “first-hand” UFO-related claims “beyond the realm of what [the Senate Intelligence Committee] has ever dealt with” in response to a proposed bill granting whistleblowers legal immunity if such information is reported appropriately within a defined timeframe. Now we need to give Rubio immunity for revealing the information to the public.

    NASA's Perseverance Mars rover sent back a photo of a large dark stone with a hole in its center that looks like a donut but representatives of the SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) Institute in Mountain View, California, say it is more likely part of a large meteorite which created similar other rocks of the same color scattered about nearby. Has anyone checked to see if The Simpsons (particularly Homer) predicted this?

    NASA's Mars rover Perserverance snapped this photo of a possible meteorite on the Red Planet on June 23, 2023. This image, processed by Stuart Atkinson, is a refined view based on Perseverance's raw image data.

    The Stafford Township Police Department in New Jersey is asking for the public’s help in apprehending Thomas L. Bintz of Chandlersville, OH, for committing fourth-degree Criminal Mischief and third-degree Theft in stealing the iconic Jersey Devil statue from in front of Lucilles Luncheonette - Country Cooking in Warren Grove – the Jersey Devil is New Jersey’s most famous cryptid and the man who carved the wooden statue has promised to make a replacement if the original isn’t found. Bigfoot and Mothman should let the other cryptids know to BOLO.

    A woman in Alton, Pennsylvania, reports walking her dog at 1 am and seeing a tall, dark creature with a white human face, glowing eyes and long black wings which it used to fly off – while some people suspect it was a Piasa Bird (a flying creature from Native American mythology), most think it was the Mothman and are predicting bad things will be happening soon just as they did in Point Pleasant in 1967. Richard Gere … call your agent.

    WYDOT District 5 (Wyoming Department of Transportation ) in northwest Wyoming posted a U.S. Forest Service warning sign on its Facebook page cautioning residents to be on the lookout for Bigfoot and if confronted, follow some simple steps like don’t run from Bigfoot, don’t chase it, don’t yell at it and don’t feed it … but definitely take pictures of Bigfoot and send them in. It would be fitting if Bigfoot has its own warnings to not engage with humans unless they offer food.

    The International UFO Lab in Fukushima City, Japan, released six photographs and videos that the group believes are highly likely to depict real UFOs – the photos and videos of round and triangular flying objects were taken from a total of 494 reports it received from people both in Japan and abroad over the past year and were the only ones which could not be explained as drones, birds, airplanes, bugs or other conventional objects. Isn’t it time the U.S., Japan and other countries collecting UFO evidence compared notes?

    An article published in arXiv.org by European and American planetary scientists claims they have found evidence of large planets in the Oort Cloud on the far outer edge of the solar system, which could have been captured from other solar systems or even from our own after being thrown out during the early days of the formation of the other planets – but they don’t believe any of these are the hypothetical “Planet X” because they are too far away to affect the orbits of Uranus or Neptune. It’s a sad day in astronomy when the public doesn’t care unless the discovery is Planet X.

    The mystery of the recent Las Vegas UFO and its 10-foot aliens has not been solved, and now a second UFO anomaly has occurred over the city – a video shows two lights over Vegas hovering next to each other on June 22 at 10.30 pm for “20 minutes straight” according to the witness. Maybe it’s time for a new slogan: What lands in Vegas … stays in Vegas.

    Visitors to Murphysboro, Illinois, can now see a life-size statue of the Big Muddy Monster, an 8-foot, 8-inch whit-furred Bigfoot-like cryptid which first emerged coved in mud from the Big Muddy River 50 years ago and became the town’s most famous cryptid and potential tourist attraction as it appeared numerous times and was investigated by the local police. Petre Seeger sang about being “waist deep in the Big Muddy” but nobody wants to be waist-deep in the Big Muddy Monster.

    Scientific teams in Australia, the US, Europe, China, and India simultaneously released papers announcing they have independently found a signal in the timing of flashing stars called pulsars that points to giant, long-wavelength gravitational waves which are the low-pitch background hum of the universe - this is not a detection of gravitational waves yet but the closest evidence so far. Is it just a hum or is it the music of alien gravitational wave surfers?

    Paleoanthropologist Briana Pobiner of the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History led a team performing a detailed, 3D analysis of cuts on a leg bone belonging to a mysterious human relative who lived in what is now Kenya 1.45 million years ago and found they made by stone tools and suggest the maker was cutting flesh from the bone so they could eat it – which would make this the earliest known evidence of hominins eating other hominins in what we now call cannibalism. There was no evidence to indicate what fermented grape drink they ate with it.

    A new fictional movie about a billionaire’s search for the Loch Ness monster ran into technical difficulties while filming and the director ended up going 50 miles away and using Loch Awe and Portsonachan instead of Loch Ness and Inverness-shire. Will Nessie be played by Loch Awe logs?

    British UFO hunter John Mooner released photos of a UFO flying over the Devon countryside and he claims the pictures show an “alien flying saucer” with “two black rectangular windows on the dome portion of the craft and four black openings along the bottom part of its structure" and he also saw “some type of force field emanating around it” – evidence which convinced abductee Mooner that “the alien presence is real” and “we are not alone.” Will Senator Rubio (see above) accept the photos even though Mr. Mooney is not a registered Florida voter?

    A study by Doris Arzoumanian at the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan proposes that isotope ratios found in meteorites indicate a nearby supernova exploded while our solar system was forming but it was prevented from being destroyed in the blast by a filament of molecular gas which formed a birth cocoon around the early solar system. We saw Birth Cocoon open for Iron Butterfly.

    A new study of a prayer book found at Wormsley Library near High Wycombe found etchings in the margins that were drawn by King Henry VIII in the final years of his life and suggest the king was worried about killing off his wives and wondered if he would be forgiven when he died. The doodles also indicate he should have spent more time in art class and less in beheading class.

    Dutch archaeologists have discovered a 4,000-year-old sanctuary made of ditches and burial mounds in the central Netherlands which they believe served the same ritual purpose as Stonehenge in southern England because the wooden and soil structure, which was big as at least three soccer fields, was aligned  with the sun on the solstices and contained animal skeletons, human skulls and valuable items at key viewing locations. Get ready for stores in Amsterdam to start selling chocolate henges.

    It seems like every lake has a monster and visitors at Lake Payette in McCall, Idaho, posted videos of what they claim is Sharlie the Lake Monster, which was first seen in 1920 by a railroad logging crew which thought it was a giant log until it moved; in 1944, a group of people near the Narrows saw a creature they claimed was 35 feet long, with a dinosaur-type head and humps like a camel … the latest video shows a wake and something trying to rise out of the water. The creature is also called Slimy Slim, which sounds more like a jerky snack sold at the Lake Payette convenience store.

    The lost ancient Maya city of Ocomtúnhas has been found deep in the Balamkú ecological reserve in Campeche, Mexico, where "pyramidal structures" up to 49 feet (15 meters) high were spotted by researchers using airborne laser scanning (LiDAR) and then located by researchers cutting their way through the jungle - Ocomtún means "stone column" in the Yucatec Maya language and the city was named for the columns found there which may have been part of entrances to upper floors of the Maya buildings surrounding the plazas. How does one lose a pyramid? (Asking for a friend who never has his keys or remote control.)

    The Eslabón Perdido (Missing Link) research group has discovered the 260-foot-long wreck of a German U-Boat off the coast of Argentina which it claims could be evidence that Adolf Hitler escaped Berlin near the end of World War II and traveled to Latin America - the Simon Wiesenthal Centre is now calling on the Argentine government to release more information on the finding and end its “suspicious” silence which has many believing it is hiding what could be evidence that would rewrite history and also show it helped the Nazis after the war. To paraphrase Edwin Starr: War … what is it good for? Printing new history books … say it again.

    Didier Archimbaud, a farmer in Saint-Babel, France, recently found a huge 3,000 square meter crop circle drawn in his wheat field which attracted curious visitors and cause a crop circle specialist to liken it to a UFO and, but to the farmer it was “the work of a little joker who had fun.” That may be one of the few times farmers in England agree with a Frenchman.

    Police in Istanbul were called in when a private security guard working at the petrol station watched a crow down directly in front of him and drop a severed human index finger and a severed thumb on the ground – the incident has prompted an investigation into what may be a homicide. This should make it easier to remember that a group of crows is called a “murder.”

    Another stereotype bites the dust as a new study of hunter-gatherer societies around the world found that 79% contained women who were hunters, they continued to hunt even after they became mothers, they had a variety of efficient hunting tools, more than 70% of female hunting expeditions were classified as "intentional" rather than opportunistic killings which occurred while gathering plants, and everyone in their community accepted them as hunters. Maybe it’s time to reconsider women’s football and male cheerleaders.

    Archaeologists in Pompeii have discovered a still-life fresco of a Mediterranean meal from the time just before the 79 CE eruption of Mount Vesuvius that looks like it has a pizza on a tray – except pizza wasn’t invented until the 1800s so researchers think this was a flat focaccia which may have been covered with dried fruits like pomegranates and dates, spices and a pesto. Pizza with pomegranates? All of a sudden, pizza with pineapple doesn’t sound so bad.

    For those who believe octopuses are aliens or at least highly intelligent beings, researchers from the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST) watched octopuses (Octopus laqueus) sleep and noticed they had short bursts of sudden frenzied activity where their arms and eyes twitched, their breathing rate quickened, and their skin changed colors – changes that normally occur when they are awake and suggest the octopuses were going through rapid eye movement (REM) sleep and were probably dreaming just like humans do. Well, not quite like humans do – they’re probably not dreaming of sushi bars.

    Asserted Alien Encounters: The Claim of Extraterrestrial Impregnation

    Amidst the sprawling cityscape, you’ll find Geraldine Orozco, a woman with a story so extraordinary that it challenges the boundaries of our understanding. This is not a tale of your ordinary city-dweller; this is an account of an alleged encounter with beings from another world. It’s an exploration of the chilling claim of alien hybridization, a concept that has both intrigued and baffled UFO enthusiasts for years.

    The Unconventional Encounter

    Geraldine Orozco’s narrative began years ago when she found herself unexpectedly pregnant. Despite not trying to have children with her partner, Geraldine was carrying a child. However, the normal excitement and anticipation quickly turned into a mystery. As abruptly as it started, her pregnancy ended in an unexplained miscarriage, a situation that would repeat itself over time, always leaving no trace of a fetus.

    The Awakening

    As years passed, a peculiar incident in 2013 changed the course of Geraldine’s life. One night, she awoke to an intense, blinding light illuminating her room. The light was accompanied by an eerie sensation of paralysis, followed by the bewildering experience of being levitated and carried through her window. Geraldine found herself on what she describes as an alien craft, in the presence of intimidating beings. Her descriptions mirror popular depictions of ‘The Greys’ or ‘Zeta Reticulans,’ tall, slender creatures with expansive eyes and gray skin.

    A Motherhood Beyond Comprehension

    Geraldine’s narrative takes a profound turn when she reveals the existence of her alien-human offspring. In her account, these beings presented her with children – part human, part alien, bearing an uncanny resemblance to her. As she gazed into the depths of their large, profound eyes, Geraldine recognized them as her own. This realization provided a shocking perspective on her earlier unexplained miscarriages.

    She came to believe her unborn children were not lost naturally but were being extracted from her womb for some form of inter-species experimentation. In other words, her human fetuses were being harvested and mutated into hybrid lifeforms by these extraterrestrial beings.

    Speaking Out: A Beacon of Support

    Haunted by her experiences and resolved to seek answers, Geraldine decided to step into the public eye in 2016. She launched a website as a platform for other women who might have had similar experiences. Astonishingly, she received responses from hundreds of women worldwide who reported nearly identical stories. Her platform has since become a global support group, providing solace to those who’ve experienced what they believe to be a hybridization program.

    Medical Evidence: An Enigma Yet Unresolved

    Adding a layer of complexity to her story, Geraldine sought medical examinations in the aftermath of her experiences. Following an ultrasound, she discovered a cyst that her doctor noted was typically found in women who’d had children. This medical anomaly, combined with her recurrent, unexplained miscarriages, brought an added level of credibility to her narrative.

    Despite the incredulity of her claims, the medical mysteries surrounding her case invite us to keep an open mind. As UFO sightings and encounters continue to intrigue us, stories like Geraldine’s remind us that there are aspects of the universe that remain profoundly uncharted and cryptic.

    Geraldine Orozco’s experiences straddle the line between the known and the unknown, questioning the limits of our understanding. As we step forward into this vast cosmic playground, we might find ourselves closer to unraveling the mysteries of the universe. Whether or not we believe in alien-human hybridization, we cannot ignore the compelling nature of Geraldine’s story, and the countless others who share similar experiences. It may be easy to dismiss such tales as mere fantasies, but the persistence of such narratives across the globe does make one wonder: are we truly alone in the universe?

    Bridging the Gap: Geraldine and Science

    Interestingly, Geraldine’s account doesn’t stand alone in its otherworldly claims. Her encounters echo in the stories of numerous women around the world, forming a fascinating tapestry of shared experiences. When threaded together, they weave a narrative that is hard to dismiss. This shared narrative has prompted some in the medical and scientific communities to approach such cases with renewed interest and an open mind.

    One such example is former federal agent Ben Hansen. Hansen, an ardent UFO investigator, delved into Geraldine’s claims with a blend of fascination and scientific curiosity. Confronted with the anomalies of her medical records, he encourages the scientific and medical community to acknowledge these cases and take them seriously. If there are indeed inexplicable pregnancies occurring, it’s an issue that needs addressing, he suggests.

    The psychological implications of these experiences are also of paramount importance. Geraldine and others like her often grapple with PTSD-like symptoms, resulting from the trauma of their encounters. Therefore, ensuring support and understanding for these individuals becomes as important as understanding the phenomenon itself.

    A Riveting Journey Into the Unknown

    At its core, Geraldine’s story provokes deep contemplation about the mysteries of life and our place in the universe. It’s a narrative that stretches our imagination and challenges us to question our understanding of reality.

    Alien-human hybridization might sound like a concept borrowed from science fiction, but for those like Geraldine, it’s a lived reality. As we gaze into the cosmos, we can’t help but ponder the possibility of life beyond Earth. While we may not have all the answers, it’s stories like these that keep our curiosity alive and drive our relentless pursuit for truth.

    In the grand scheme of things, whether you believe in Geraldine’s story or not, her tale adds to the grand mosaic of human experience. In exploring these, we might yet uncover new dimensions of understanding, reshaping our conception of what’s possible, and deepening our appreciation for the boundless enigma that is the universe.

    ESA Euclid: What You Need to Know About This Dark Energy Mission

    ESA’s Euclid spacecraft will chart 10 billion light-years of cosmic history.

    ESA

    On July 1, the European Space Agency’s (ESA) Euclid spacecraft will launch on a mission to explore the very essence of the universe.

    Euclid will spend six years learning the positions, shapes, and distances of more than a billion galaxies across more than one-third of the night sky. Euclid is more than a decade in the making. Its designers have calibrated the fresh spacecraft to map material strewn across space and time, providing an insight into the enigma of dark energy and dark matter.

    Light has a finite speed. Photons from distant galaxies take longer to reach Euclid than the light from closer objects. Farther light is older light, revealing things as they once were. Euclid will take advantage of this. It will observe galaxies out to 10 billion light-years ago, and this, ESA officials say, will result in “the largest, most accurate 3D map of the universe.”

    Space is littered with clues about how galaxies interact with each other, how they evolve, how they’ve grown apart, and how they stay together.

    Euclid will siphon a plethora of light from space at a distant orbit around Earth. Mission data may aid cosmologists in their quest to better grasp the unseen universe and to derive a more precise measurement for the universe’s puzzling outward acceleration.

    This phenomenon is a likely byproduct of the mysterious realms at the heart of Euclid’s mission. Dark matter binds galaxies and galaxy clusters together, while dark energy powers the universe’s speedy outward reach.

    “Dark energy and dark matter reveal themselves by the very subtle changes they make to the appearance of objects in the visible universe,” Euclid project scientist René Johannes Laureijs said during an ESA Euclid press conference held on Friday. “Otherwise we don’t know about them. They must show somewhere.”

    “And it’s very subtle, otherwise they would have been discovered earlier. Euclid wants to measure dark energy and dark matter with unprecedented high precision and accuracy,” he added.

    WHAT IS COSMOLOGY?

    The Euclid mission is linked to cosmology, a branch of astronomy that deals with understanding why space is the way it is, how it emerged, and where it’s headed.

    At the moment, cosmologists predict that 95 percent of the universe is “something that is totally unknown to us,” ESA cosmologist Guadalupe Canas Herrera said on Friday. About 25 percent is thought to be dark matter, and 70 percent is dark energy.

    Cosmology is heavy on theory. But Canas Herrera said that, at its heart, cosmology is an experimental science where observations are compared to theoretical models. Euclid’s data may prove existing predictions, or improve them, she added.

    WHAT IS THE EUCLID MISSION?

    Though dark matter cannot be seen, it distorts the appearances of galaxies through lensing. Dark energy is also observationally evasive, but Euclid’s 3D map will trace the progression of the night sky over grand timescales, and reveal the hand of dark energy.

    In order to get a third of the sky survey in six years, Euclid is optimized to take images that are sharp, as well as larger than what other observatories like the Hubble Space Telescope could achieve in the same timescale, Laureijs said.

    Euclid carries two scientific instruments onboard: The Visible Instrument (VIS) and the Near-infrared spectrometer and photometer (NISP). All in all, the mission will result in about one million images, 12 billion sources across 10 billion years, and the distribution of 1.5 billion galaxies, Yannick Mellier, leader of the Euclid Consortium of scientists, said on Friday.

    The Euclid team expects to get the first data later this year. The data will be released publicly during three periods, Mellier added. The first two releases will happen in 2025 and 2027, with the final one in 2030.

    WHAT IS DARK ENERGY AND DARK MATTER?

    In 1998, a supernova observation first revealed to scientists that, instead of decelerating, the universe was actually expanding faster and faster.

    This new observation was a puzzle. Astronomers had previously thought the expansion triggered by the Big Bang would slow down over time, as things we can see typically do. The existence of a force called dark energy could explain the acceleration. As NASA explains, dark energy is perhaps inherent to space itself, and since there is more space now than there was in the past, there might be more of this force around to make the universe expand faster.

    Euclid could offer a new level of accuracy in the measurement, plus show if the acceleration varied throughout the history of the universe.

    As Caltech explains, in the early 20th century, astronomers pinpointed the speeds at which certain galaxies were rotating. Mass and gravity are related entities, and by looking at the visible matter alone, the galaxies were spinning much too fast to remain intact. Something unseen was thought to be at play, preventing them from flying apart. The same is true for clusters, or groups of galaxies that somehow have extra hidden mass to stay bound together.

    WHEN WILL EUCLID LAUNCH?

    In order to help constrain the dynamics of how the universe behaves, Euclid must launch into a prime observational spot, located in space.

    To get there, the 15-foot-tall spacecraft will launch from Cape Canaveral in Florida aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket no earlier than 11:11 a.m. Eastern on July 1. It will travel on a weeks-long journey to a gravitationally-stable perch about a million miles from Earth, called Lagrange point 2 or L2.

    “Very important for Euclid is that the L2 orbit provides the best observing environment,” Laureijs said on Friday. “L2 also enables us to see the whole sky… it’s an ideal place for a mission like Euclid to have more than one-third of the sky viewed with extremely stable conditions.”

    Around October, after setting up its systems and properly cooling down, Euclid will commence its investigations of the unseen universe.

    After Decades of Observations, Astronomers have Finally Sensed the Pervasive Background Hum of Merging Supermassive Black Holes

    We’ve become familiar with LIGO/VIRGO’s detections of colliding black holes and neutron stars that create gravitational waves, or ripples in the fabric of space-time. However, the mergers between supermassive black holes – billions of times the mass of the Sun — generate gravitational waves too long to register with these instruments.

    But now, after decades of careful observations, astronomers around the world using a different type of gravitational wave detection method have finally gathered enough data to measure what is essentially a gravitational wave background hum of the Universe, mostly from supermassive black holes spiraling toward collision.  

    Scientists say the newly detected gravitational waves are by far the most powerful ever measured, and they persist for years to decades. They carry roughly a million times as much energy as the one-off bursts of gravitational waves from black hole and neutron star mergers detected by LIGO and Virgo.

    “It’s like a choir, with all these supermassive black hole pairs chiming in at different frequencies,” said scientist Chiara Mingarelli, who worked about 190 other scientists with the NANOGrav (North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves). “This is the first-ever evidence for the gravitational wave background. We’ve opened a new window of observation on the universe.”

    The observatories use the combined power of several radio telescopes. In the US and Canada, the NANOGrav observatories include the now destroyed Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico, the Green Bank Telescope in West Virginia, and the Very Large Array in New Mexico. This collaboration collected data from 68 pulsars, to effectively form to form a huge type of detector called a pulsar timing array. Astronomers now announced they have found the first evidence of a consistent background hum of long-wavelength gravitational waves that fills the cosmos.

    Also reporting similar results is the European Pulsar Timing Array (EPTA), in collaboration with Indian and Japanese colleagues of the Indian Pulsar Timing Array (InPTA). Observatories there include the Effelsberg Radio Telescope in Germany, the Lovell Telescope of the Jodrell Bank Observatory in the United Kingdom, the Nançay Radio Telescope in France, the Sardinia Radio Telescope in Italy and the Westerbork Radio Synthesis Telescope in the Netherlands.

    For this collaboration, 25 years of observing 25 pulsars revealed the gravitational waves with wavelengths much longer than those seen by other experiments.

    “Pulsars are actually very faint radio sources, so we require thousands of hours a year on the world’s largest telescopes to carry out this experiment,” said Dr. Maura McLaughlin of West Virginia University and co-Director of NANOGrav, in a press release.  “Now, [our] pulsar observations are showing the first evidence for the presence of gravitational waves, with periods of years to decades.”

    “We are incredibly excited that after decades of work by hundreds of astronomers and physicists around the world, we are finally seeing the signature of gravitational waves from the distant Universe.,” said Dr. Michael Keith, from the Jodrell Bank Centre for Astrophysics at The University of Manchester, in another press release. “The results presented today mark the beginning of a new journey into the Universe to unveil some of its unsolved mysteries.

    The gravitational wave detections we’ve been reporting on since 2015 by the ground-based LIGO (the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory) and Europe’s Virgo detector are fleeting, high-frequency gravitational waves. A longer, low-frequency signal could be perceived only with a detector much larger than the Earth. By studying the pulsars, astronomers essentially turned our sector of the Milky Way Galaxy into a huge gravitational-wave antenna.  

    Pulsars are the ultra-dense remnants of the cores of massive stars following their demise in a supernova explosion. Pulsars spin rapidly, sweeping beams of radio waves through space so that they appear to “pulse” when seen from the Earth. The fastest of these objects, called millisecond pulsars, spin hundreds of times each second. Their pulses are very stable, and astronomers can use them as precise cosmic timepieces.

    The supermassive black hole binaries at the cores of galaxies produce electromagnetic waves at radio to gamma-ray wavelengths that can be detected by telescopes on Earth and in space. They also produce gravitational waves that can be studied through their effects on an array of radio pulsars. These dual electromagnetic and gravitational wave messengers provide extremely valuable insights that cannot be gleaned from either type of observation alone. 
    Illustration: Olena Shmahalo/NANOGrav.

    Supermassive black holes are thought to reside at the centers of the largest galaxies in the Universe. When two galaxies merge, the black holes from each end up orbiting each other as a binary system long after the initial galaxy merger. Eventually, the two black holes will unite. In the meantime, their slow dance around each other stretches and squeezes the fabric of space-time, generating gravitational waves that emanate out like ripples in a pond.

    Since they are long-lasting, the gravitational-wave signals from these gigantic binaries are expected to overlap, like voices in a crowd or instruments in an orchestra, producing an overall background hum that imprints a unique pattern in pulsar timing data.

    NANOGrav’s results were published in five papers in The Astrophysical Journal Letters, while papers appeared in other journals from the European, Australian, Indian and Chinese pulsar timing arrays.

    The NANOGrav papers report a “strong evidence” of these long, low-frequency signals, reporting the detection at a 3.5- to 4-sigma level, which is less than the 5-sigma threshold that physicists usually want to claim a discovery. But a 4-sigma amplitude is better than the 3.5 sigma from the Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE) spacecraft on the cosmic microwave background (CMB). The scientists for NANOGrav say they have more than 99% confidence that the signal is real.

    But to confirm these measurements, the researchers want to collaborate even further to expand the current datasets to create an International Pulsar Timing Array. This will use the power of an array consisting of over 100 pulsars, observed with thirteen radio telescopes across the world, combining more than 10,000 observations for each pulsar. This should allow the astronomers to obtain solid proof of having detected a pervasive background hum of gravitational waves.

    New Pentagon UFO Memo reveals confusion, security concerns | New York Post

    THE MEMO: https://www.theblackvault.com/documen...

    A newly-released Pentagon document offers a peek behind the curtain at how military officials reacted to a former employee going public about UFOs.

    In December 2017, a front page New York Times story about a secret $22 million Pentagon UFO program went viral around the world. The main source in this article was Lue Elizondo, a former Department of Defense intelligence officer who had recently resigned. Elizondo claimed to have run this UFO program for nearly a decade.

    Our previous reporting has revealed that this New York Times article was mostly wrong: Elizondo was not the director of a Pentagon UFO program. And the Pentagon didn’t even have a UFO program.

    Confusing, right?

    Well in 2017 when the New York Times story broke, senior officials at the Pentagon were also confused, scrambling to figure out just what the heck this Elizondo guy was talking about.

    And that’s what this new document is. An accounting of how the Pentagon initially dealt with the UFO story.

    It was acquired via a Freedom of Information Act request filed by John Greenewald. Greenewald is an expert in government documents and he runs the The Black Vault. The Black Vault contains millions of pages of government documents released via the Freedom of Information act.

    Steven Greenstreet spoke with Mr. Greenewald about this new revelatory document.

    Unmasking MUFON: The Quest for the Truth about UFOs

    In the realm of the mysterious and the unknown, few organizations have garnered as much attention as the Mutual UFO Network, more popularly known as MUFON. This all-volunteer organization has dedicated over five decades to the scientific study of Unidentified Flying Objects, establishing itself as the world’s largest UFO investigation organization.

    The genesis of MUFON lies in the heartland of the United States, starting in Quincy, Illinois as the Midwest UFO Network. However, by 1973, the organization’s member count expanded to such an extent that it transitioned to its current, more inclusive moniker – the Mutual UFO Network. But what was it that gave this obscure group its initial push into the limelight? Enter the sensational Cash-Landrum incident of 1980.

    The Cash-Landrum case was a pivotal event in UFO history that unfolded on a regular Texas night. Betty Cash and Vicki Landrum stumbled upon a diamond-shaped object hovering above, emanating an intense blue flame. Days later, they experienced alarming symptoms like hair loss and developed cancer, symptoms akin to ionized radiation exposure. MUFON investigators collected evidence, gathered witness statements, and crucially, medical records, which served as the backbone for the legal case against the U.S government. Despite the case not falling in favor of the victims, it made headlines across major U.S newspapers, propelling MUFON into mainstream consciousness.

    While the organization’s commitment to truth and scientific rigor is commendable, it’s the community aspect that draws in many enthusiasts. This coming together of like-minded individuals creates a community that fosters shared learning and, most importantly, shared passion for the subject. The collective’s diversity in professional background and skillset further adds to its strength, attracting members from military, law enforcement, legal, medical, and various other professional domains.

    One of the many initiatives that keep the wheels of MUFON turning is the annual Investigator Boot Camp held in Mesa, Arizona. In this event, UFO researchers from around the globe undergo intensive, hands-on training for investigating reported extraterrestrial visitations. The training encompasses an array of techniques, from photo and video analysis, understanding astronomical charts, to interpreting radar returns.

    MUFON’s enduring commitment to the scientific study of UFOs is encapsulated perfectly in its mission statement: “the scientific study of UFOs for the benefit of mankind.” Over the years, MUFON has evolved from an association of private citizens into a professional body, dedicated to not only investigating UFO sightings but also offering a sense of community to those passionate about the subject.

    As we stand on the threshold of an era where the line between science fiction and reality blurs, organizations like MUFON continue to uphold the quest for truth. They strive to peel back the layers of the unknown, fostering an environment that welcomes curiosity and incites investigation. As the members of MUFON attest, the truth is indeed out there, waiting to be discovered, one UFO sighting at a time.

    Mars rover Perseverance sets new record for making oxygen on Red Planet

    GOLDEN, Colorado - Breathe easy: There's good news from Mars. 

    Tucked inside NASA's Perseverance Mars rover is a device known as MOXIE, short for Mars Oxygen In Situ Resource Utilization Experiment. MOXIE is the first experiment to suck in the planet's thin, carbon dioxide-laden air and transform that native resource into oxygen. The toaster-sized device, if built to a larger scale, can be used not just for astronaut expeditions to Mars for breathing, but also for rocket fuel. 

    Earlier this month, the experiment achieved a major milestone when researchers pushed MOXIE to a maximum production level — a factor of two higher than reached earlier.

    Riskiest run

    "We got great results," said Michael Hecht, MOXIE's principal investigator and an associate director of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's (MIT) Haystack Observatory in Westford, Massachusetts.

    "This was the riskiest run we've done," Hecht told Space.com in an exclusive interview. "This could have gone wrong," he said, and could have led to minor damage to the instrument, but it didn't. The milestone setting Mars run took place on June 6, operating during the Martian night, and lasted 58 minutes, Hecht said.

    The requirements for MOXIE were to produce 6 grams of oxygen an hour, a rate that was eventually doubled. "We rolled the dice a little bit. It was 'hold your breath and see what happens,'" Hecht said. 

    Informally dubbed by Hecht and his team as "the last hurrah," MOXIE delivered the goods on its 15th run on Mars since first gulping up Martian atmosphere within Jezero Crater on April 20, 2021.

    The challenge all along, Hecht added, has been to define ways to operate on Mars more efficiently by cranking out a higher yield of oxygen.

    Voltage vigilance

    Hecht presented a review of MOXIE, detailing a Martian year of on-the-spot resource utilization on the Red Planet at the 23rd meeting of the Space Resources Roundtable, held June 6-9 at the Colorado School of Mines. 

    MOXIE weighs roughly 40 pounds (18 kg) and is designed to pull in Martian air using a pump before using an electrochemical process to separate one oxygen atom from each molecule of carbon dioxide. As a byproduct, carbon monoxide is produced, as is a black residue of solid carbon that can gum up the works inside the device, Hecht said. So voltage vigilance is required as MOXIE performs its high-temperature, oxygen-making work, he added.

    Operating one hour at a time, MOXIE ran seven times in calendar year 2021, mostly to prove that the instrument can operate in the different conditions the planet experiences throughout the Martian year. (A year on Mars lasts twice as long as it does on Earth due to the Red Planet's full-circle swing around the sun.)

    In 2022, MOXIE technologists focused more on pushing the unit's capabilities, as well as developing new operating modes. All in all, the earlier start-stop set of 14 runs added up to 1,000 minutes of operating time. "It's been an exciting ride," Hecht told the Colorado School of Mines audience.

    But MOXIE is a technology demonstration, and like many other demonstrators, its long-term life is tied to funding. Research money for MOXIE is set to end at year's end, Hecht said, with the MIT lab that carries out the work on the lookout for new collaborations.

    Full-scale system

    As for what's next for MOXIE, Hecht said the experiment results encourage the development of a full-scale system here on Earth, one that pumps out oxygen continuously in auto-mode and is able to generate 25 to 30 tons of oxygen to support a human mission on Mars. "It's all about lifetime. We run an hour at a time. To do this in the future we will have to run for 10,000 hours."

    Understanding just how far MOXIE can be pushed before it degrades is important. "On Mars you don't get a second chance," Hecht told Space.com. "We could turn it on at 12 grams an hour and let it rip for a long time."

    Perhaps there is value in coming back in a year, Hecht observed, to turn the experiment on again to see if anything has degraded just from aging and exposure to the Martian environment.

    "MOXIE isn't going anywhere being nice and safe on Mars," Hecht said.

     BY ANDY TOMASWICK

    AI Could Help Astronomers Rapidly Generate Hypotheses

    Almost anywhere you go on the internet, it seems nearly impossible to escape articles on AI. Even here at UT, we’ve published several. Typically they focus on how a specific research group leveraged the technology to make sense of reams of data. But that sort of pattern recognition isn’t all that AI is good for. In fact, it’s becoming pretty capable of abstract thought. And one place where abstract thought can be helpful is in developing new scientific theories. With that thought in mind, a team of researchers from ESA, Columbia, and the Australian National University (ANU) utilized an AI to come up with scientific hypotheses in astronomy.

    Specifically, they did so in the sub-field of “Galactic Astronomy,” which specializes in research surrounding the formation and physics of galaxies. A recently published paper on arXiv mentions that they selected this sub-field because of its “integrative nature,” which requires “knowledge from diverse subfields.”

    That sounds exactly like what AI is already good at. But a standard Large Language Model (LLM) like those that have become most familiar recently (ChatGPT, Bard, etc.) wouldn’t have enough subject knowledge to develop reasonable hypotheses in that field. It might even fall prey to the “hallucinations” that some researchers (and journalists) warn are one of the downsides of interacting with the models.


    This version of Fraser’s question show deals partially with AI.

    To avoid that problem, the researchers, led by Ioana Ciuc? and Yuan-Sen Ting of ANU, used a piece of code known as an application programming interface (API), which was written in Python, known as Langchain. This API allows more advanced users to manipulate LLMs like GPT-4, which serves as the latest basis for ChatGPT. In the researchers’ case, they loaded over 1,000 scientific articles relating to Galactic Astronomy into GPT-4 after downloading them from NASA’s Astrophysics Data System.

    One of the researchers’ experiments was to test how the number of papers the model had access to affected its resulting hypotheses. They noticed a significant difference between the suggested hypotheses it developed having access to only ten papers vs. having access to the full thousand.

    But how did they judge the validity of the hypotheses themselves? They did what any self-respecting scientist would do and recruited experts in the field. Two of them, to be precise. And they asked them to just the hypotheses based on originality of thought, the feasibility of testing the hypotheses, and the scientific accuracy of its basis. The experts found that, even with a limited data set of only ten papers to go off of, the hypotheses suggested by “Astro-GPT,” as they called their model, were graded only slightly lower than a competent Ph.D. student. With access to the full 1,000 papers, Astro-GPT scored at a “near-expert level.”

    Here’s a brief explanation from a NASA scientist on how AI will take astronomy to the next level.

    A critical factor in determining the final hypotheses that were presented to the experts was that the hypotheses were refined using “adversarial prompting.” While this sounds aggressive, it simply means that, in addition to the program that was developing the hypotheses, another program was trained on the same data set and then provided feedback to the first program about its hypotheses, thereby forcing the original program to improve their logical fallacies and generally create substantially better ideas.

    Even with the adversarial feedback, there’s no reason for astronomy Ph.D. students to give up on coming up with their own unique ideas in their field. But, this study does point to an underutilized ability of these LLMs. As they become more widely adopted, scientists and laypeople can leverage them more and more to come up with new and better ideas to test.

    Some Very Bizarre Encounters With Human UFOnauts

    Some Very Bizarre Encounters With Human UFOnauts

    Brent Swancer

    The UFO phenomenon is truly a world of the weird. Here we have sightings of bizarre crafts, encounters with aliens, and everything in between. Yet while most accounts feature something totally alien, for instance the ubiquitous "Greys" or reptilians, and others, there are also other alien encounters that seem to feature something altogether more human, in fact, totally human. Here we will look at a selection of cases of people coming across UFO occupants only to figure out that they are us. 

    There have been various cases of encounters which seem to be of humans piloting UFOs or seemingly somehow working in conjunction with otherworldly beings. An early report comes from September of 1972, in the town of Palenque in the Dominican Republic. The unnamed witness was allegedly driving along a rural, desolate stretch of road when he saw in the glow of his headlights a trio of aliens in “grey form-fitting uniforms and with lemon-hued skins.” As the driver slowed down he could see that parked some distance off the road was a large, egg-shaped craft of some sort, and he found himself mesmerized by the sight, stopping his vehicle as one of the figures approached him.

    When the strange entity got to his car, it apparently began speaking to the frightened driver in perfect Spanish, and explained that he had actually once been human. According to this being, he had been rescued by the aliens from drowning at sea some seven years earlier, and that his human name had been the not very Spanish-sounding name “Freddy Miller.” According to Miller, his outlandish appearance was due to the fact that he had adapted to life on the alien home world, although it is unclear just how this was accomplished. The two conversed for a while before “Miller” bid him farewell, joined his companions, and the whole trio of them took off on their spacecraft. What in the world was going on here? 

    A similar case supposedly occurred in November of 1974, outside Huesca, Spain. A couple claimed that they had been driving along a dark, lonely stretch of road when they saw a “pointy-faced” humanoid waving them down frantically as a semi-spherical UFO with alternating red, yellow, and white lights hovered in the background. For some reason the couple did not tear out of there as fast as they could, instead slowing down to see what this strange being wanted. They approached, stopped the car, the humanoid approached and …. asked them for a monkey wrench, of all things. It apparently spoke perfect Spanish and explained that he was human and had once been a “Dr. Flor, from Barcelona.” He told them he needed the wrench to fix a malfunction on his ship. They apparently gave him the wrench, he fixed his ship, and then flew off into the night. No word on whether or not he returned the wrench.

    In 1989, Spanish UFO investigator J.J. Ben¡tez investigated a case which took place in the south of Spain, in which some frightened teenagers claimed to have seen two “large, brilliant figures” materialize out of nowhere and then transform into what looked like normal human beings dressed in street clothes appropriate for the time and place. These two figures, a man and a woman, then casually strolled off towards the beach. The teenagers waited around for a while and the strange couple returned a few hours later, after which a UFO appeared above them and the pair disappeared in a flash of light. When they followed the trail of footprints, they found that it led straight into the water at the beach. What in the world? 

    In October of 1974, a group of UFO researchers in Puerto Rico went out into the El Yunque Rainforest to investigate a spate of sightings in the area, long a hotbed of UFO activity. As they made their way along the trail, they saw a trio of people walking towards them in the opposite direction. As they approached it could be seen that the three of them looked almost like clones of each other, and that they were wearing “nondescript uniforms.” It was odd enough that the group leader, Heriberto Ramos, snapped some covert photos of the trio as they passed. Strangely, when these photos were developed they showed a haze shrouding the figures, and Ramos would later claim that the photos had been stolen from his office.

    Even more bizarre is a case that revolves around the famous case of the disappearance of the Australian pilot Frederick Valentich, who vanished on October 21, 1978 while on a flight from Victoria, Australia to King Island aboard a single-engine Cessna 182 aircraft. At some point during this flight, Valentich radioed the Melbourne Air Flight Service (MAFS) to report that he had spotted a “large aircraft” with four lights on it. He would call it in wanting to know if there were any other planes scheduled to be in the area, but things would quickly take a turn for the bizarre. The transcript of their conversation makes or some spooking reading, and is as follows:

    Valentich: “Is there any known traffic in my area below 5,000 feet?”

    MAFS: “Negative. No known traffic.”

    Valentich: “Seems to be a large aircraft below 5,000 feet.”

    MAFS: “What type of aircraft?”

    Valentich: I cannot confirm. It has four bright lights that appear to be landing lights…aircraft has just passed over me about 1,000 feet above.”

    MAFS: “Is large aircraft confirmed?”

    Valentich: “Affirmative; at the speed it is traveling are there any RAAF [Royal Australian Air Force] aircraft in the vicinity?”

    MAFS: “Negative. What is your altitude?”

    Valentich: “4,500 feet.”

    MAFS: “Confirm you cannot identify aircraft?”

    Valentich: “Affirmative.”

    Three minutes later, Valentich again contacts MAFS:

    Valentich: “Aircraft…It’s not an aircraft. It’s” [break in transmission.]

    MAFS: “Can you describe aircraft?”

    Valentich: “It’s flying past. It has a long shape. Cannot identify more than that…coming for me right now. It seems to be stationary. I’m orbiting, and the thing is orbiting on top of me. It has a green light and sort of metallic light on the outside.”

    He then reported that the object had vanished.

    MAFS: “Confirm it has vanished?”

    Valentich: “Affirmative. Do you know what sort of aircraft I’ve got? Is it military?”

    MAFS: “No military traffic in the area.”

    At 7:12 p.m. Valentich reported, “Engine is rough idling and coughing.”

    MAFS: “What are your intentions?”

    Valentich: “Proceeding King Island. Unknown aircraft now hovering on top of me.”

    MAFS: “Acknowledge.”

    Valentich: “Delta Sierra Juliet [Valentich’s call sign] Melbourne…

    After Valentich’s transmission is cut short there is then about 17 seconds of a loud metallic sound and then nothing. Valentich would disappear without a trace, his plane and body never found, and considering that there had been numerous UFO sightings in the area at the time, the UFO lore speculates that he was whisked away by aliens. But what happened to him after that? One bonkers report from Spanish UFO researcher Manuel Carballal claims that he might have the answer, and it is that Valentich merely stayed with the aliens for a while, but had returned to resume life on Earth. According to Carballal, in 1990 a man claiming to be Valentich showed up at Plaza del Charco, on the island of Tenerife in the Canary Islands, even showing his Australian passport to prove it. Oddly, he was said to have shown no signs of having aged since he had disappeared, and when asked what had happened to him he claimed to have been recruited by the aliens and was tasked with telling them about life on Earth. He then disappeared without a trace again. Is there anything to this report? Who knows?

    Frederick Valentich

    If any of these cases really are describing humans who have for whatever reason been recruited or been taken in by extraterrestrials, then to what end might this be? Is it curiosity, a desire to know more about us, or is it something more sinister? One strange and not a little ominous theory comes from ex-WW II fighter pilot, former intelligence operative, and UFO researcher Luis Anglada Font, who believes such cases are indicative of a nefarious plot put into motion by the aliens, involving recruiting human sympathizers for the purpose of using them as spies, terrorists, and to generally destabilize and undermine society so that we may be eventually replaced. Conversely, they may even be recruiting humans to join some sort of invasion force. It is all pretty off-the-wall, and UFO researcher Scott Corrales has said of some of Anglada’s ideas:

    In the Grey-and-Reptoid-haunted 1980’s, 1990’s, and today, it is almost heretical to suggest that any other possible form of occupant can emerge from a UFO. But human ufonauts remain an intriguing part of the picture, and their very existence has suggested very disturbing possibilities to certain investigators. Anglada turned his military man’s eye upon a problem that distressed him greatly: he had no doubt as to the fact that UFOs and their occupants were real, but what was to be made of the humans who are often seen aboard UFOs or involved in some sort of activity with the ufonauts? The evidence presented by Luis Anglada in his argument was based on the mysterious disappearances of humans and “breeding experiments.” Humans were being abducted in order to breed an “invasion force” that would be human and acclimated to the alien’s home planet. He suggested that not all the force would consist of conscripts-some would be youthful volunteers, who, attracted by the prospect of adventure, would choose to throw their lot in with the ufonauts.

    Despite the “space opera” ring that such a claim leaves in our ears, the truth is that humans have been reported in some landmark cases. Anglada offers a more ominous possibility: these UFO-related humans (as well as the “offspring” of our contemporary abductees, resulting from the breeding experiments to which they are allegedly subjected) could well be our replacements on this planet, after our own race is annihilated either by design or accident. In his militaristic scenario, these hybrid humans would be returned to Earth as our overlords or taskmasters: much more alien than human in custom, training and choice. The genetic experiments being visited upon unsuspecting humans worldwide reinforce the above mentioned possibility. But what do the very human collaborators stand to benefit from it all? Power, influence or status in the real “new world order”? It remains anyone’s guess.

    What are we to make of such cases? Why should people be riding around in or even piloting these otherwordly craft? It truly boggles the mind. Are they in league with these alien forces, is this some sort of trick, is it all just delusions, or is it maybe, just maybe something else? No matter what the case may be, these reports of human beings and UFOs are certainly bizarre, and form their own little corner of the larger UFO phenomenon.

    Pentagon UFO whistleblower claims people have been killed by 'non-human intelligences' and says US government will do ANYTHING to protect the secret

    The Pentagon whistleblower who claims the US has run a top secret UFO retrieval program for decades says some of the 'non-human intelligences' discovered are malevolent and have even killed humans. 

    David Grusch served 14 years in the Air Force, where he says he was told about the program by others who were involved. 

    Grusch, 36, is a decorated Afghanistan combat officer who went on to work for the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) and the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO). 

    His role was to act as the NRO's representative when dealing with the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force. The task force was specifically set up to investigate UFOs.

    David Grusch served 14 years in the Air Force, where he says he was told about the program by others who were involved

    David Grusch served 14 years in the Air Force, where he says he was told about the program by others who were involved 

    Over the last week, he has gone public with what he says it entailed, telling NewsNation about how the US is in an arms race with Russia and China to understand the extra-terrestrial life. 

    In his most recent comments, he says the 'non human' intelligences have acted with malevolence - and even killed some humans. 

    'I think the logical fallacy there is because they’re advanced, they’re kind. We’ll never really understand their full intent and that’s because we’re not them. 

    'But I think what appears to be malevolent activity has happened. 

    'That’s based on nuclear site probing activities and witness testimony. 

    'While I can’t get into the specifics because that would reveal certain US classified operations, I was briefed by a few individuals on the program that there were malevolent events like that,' he said, when asked specifically if any had killed humans. 

    Grusch also made the astonishing claim that the US government would do anything to protect the secret - including killing people itself. 

    'At the very least, I saw substantive evidence that white-collar crime was committed...unfortunately. 

    'I’ve heard some really un-American things I don’t want to repeat right now,' he said.

    He claimed some of the UFOs discovered have been as large as football fields. 

    Another military veteran also told DailyMail.com that his six man unit saw a hovering UFO being loaded with weapons while he was serving in Indonesia. 

    Others say they have encountered aircraft that can distort space and time.  

    Grusch filed his report in July last year. At the time, the Intelligence Community Inspector General called the complaint 'urgent and credible.' 

    'There is a sophisticated disinformation campaign targeting the U.S. populace which is extremely unethical and immoral,' he said, accusing the US government of lying to the public for 'decades'. 

    'We are most definitely not alone,' he said, adding that 'quite a number' of aircraft have been discovered. 

    The Pentagon denied having any knowledge of the program described by Grusch last week, but said it would follow ongoing investigations into his claims 'wherever they lead'. 

    The House Oversight Committee also says it will investigate his claims.

    More Intrigue About David Grusch and Those UFOs and Alien Bodies

    Nick Redfern

    Like a lot of people, I've been following the highly controversial story of former U.S. official David Grusch and those UFOs and aliens. Even my dad mailed me a copy of the U.K.'s Daily Mail article. When it comes to politics and newspapers, though, I'm on the left. But, that doesn't really matter. In case you haven't read the story, its title is: "The Pentagon UFO expert who says aliens HAVE crash landed on Earth...and the American government is hiding their bodies." There's no doubt about Grusch. His words make it clear that we do have dead aliens and UFOs or we don't. Of course, there's another angle. It's a very intriguing angle: that all of this is being done to worry our potential enemies and make them think we have extraterrestrial technology hidden away.When we really don't.

    The Daily Mail says of all this that Grusch "...had decided to go public to give the world an 'ontological shock" (one that would make it think about the nature of being) and bring them together to "re-assess their priorities." So, where do we go from now? I suggest that we do what we can do: by that, I mean we look for the "crown jewels." The aliens: dead or alive. So, how do we do that?  Well, we may not be able to prove anything in this situation, but there are people who claim to have seen dead ETs - and they also know where the bodies are. So, that's where I'm going in this article. We're still not sure what's going on.

    When it comes to extraterrestrial bodies hidden away, most people focus on Area 51. There are, however, other top secret facilties that are said to hold non-human bodies. Let's have a look at the first story. It revolves around the Dugway Proving Ground in Utah. The story circulates around a Colonel George Weinbrenner, who was the Chief of the Foreign Technology Division (FTD) at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base Air Materiel Command (AMC), Dayton, Ohio, for a period of seven years during the 1960s and 1970s. On several occasions, Weinbrenner made brief allusions to the fact that “we have five aliens in Utah.”

    Those same allusions were made to close friends and family. Although, he would not expand on this issue. But why, exactly, might such bodies have been transferred to Dugway? Researcher Tony Bragalia offers a viable and logical explanation: “Dugway serves as the central source for information on biological material issues for all Commanders-in-Chief and Services. For over six decades they have acted as this source. Though there are other military installations in Utah, Dugway is (as a Deseret Morning News reporter once said) “the single most secretive site in all of Utah. Its isolated physical location is uniquely suited for such ‘alien containment.’ Dugway is home to the most advanced facilities in the world designed for the containment, storage and preservation of highly exotic biological material.” Perhaps, this article will make people turn their heads to Dugway for the dead from space.

    Now, let's go to the U.K. and a place called Porton Down. For years there have been rumors of Porton Down - almost a mirror-image of Dugway - hiding dead aliens in their facilities. As the BBC note, U.K. military personnel were regularly used in secret mind-altering experiments at Porton Down in the 1950s and 1960s. The BBC also say: “Porton Down was set up in 1916. It was a center designed to test chemical and biological weapons. Nerve gases such as Sarin and CS gas were tested on volunteer servicemen. Servicemen were offered around £2 and three days leave as an incentive to take part in tests. Very few servicemen knew what they were volunteering for and some were even told it was research into the cure for the common cold. In 1953 it is alleged that serviceman Ronald Maddison died after taking part in a Sarin gas experiment. In 1962, one of Porton Down’s own scientists, Geoffrey Bacon died of the plague. Since the end of WWII, 20,000 people have taken part in experiments at Porton Down.” LSD was tested at Porton Down, too. On military personnel, no less. And as the Guardian newspaper stated in 2005: “Fifty years ago, Eric Gow had a baffling and unexplained experience. As a 19-year-old sailor, he remembers going to a clandestine military establishment, where he was given something to drink in a sherry glass and experienced vivid hallucinations. Other servicemen also remember tripping." Porton Down would be the perfect place to hide dead aliens. Onto something else...

    (Nick Redfern)
    Dead aliens at Porton Down?

    On the evening of January 23, 1974, an event took place on the Berwyn Mountains, Wales that some have suggested involved a crashed UFO and dead aliens. In 1996, a military whistleblower came forward, claiming that aliens had crashed on the Berwyn Mountains back in January 1974. The pummeled bodies of the dead crew were said to have been secretly rushed to Porton Down, for hasty examination and even hastier preservation. As is so typically often the case in such situations, the source chose not to provide his name to the UFO research community of the day. He preferred to lurk in the darkness, shrouded in mystery and intrigue. He shared his story only with Tony Dodd, who was a North Yorkshire police sergeant and UFO investigator. Dodd chose to give his talkative soldier the alias of “James Prescott,” who was said by Dodd to have been long-retired from the British Army. 

    “I cannot name my unit or barracks, as they are still operational,” Prescott told Dodd. Prescott did, though, admit that his base at the time was situated in the south-west of England, which – as the crow flies – may have placed his installation not too far from Porton Down. In a very baffling way - and although the incident on the Berwyn Mountains occurred on January 23, 1974 - Prescott and his colleagues were ordered to be on “stand-by at short notice” on January 18. That was five days before the Berwyns were briefly highlighted in the nation’s newspapers. Prescott got right into the heart of the story: “We then received orders to proceed with speed towards North Wales. We were halted in Chester in readiness for a military exercise we believed was about to take place. On 20 January, the communication to us was ‘hot.’ At approximately 20:13 hours we received orders to proceed to Llangollen in North Wales and to wait at that point.” 

    According to Prescott there was a huge amount of “ground and aircraft activity” over and around those huge mountains. Remember, this was still January 20, according to Prescott – three days before the ground shook those little old villages at the foot of the mountains. Prescott said that on that same night he and his colleagues were given further orders: “We, that is myself and four others, were ordered to go to Llandderfel and were under strict orders not to stop for any civilians,” claimed Prescott. On arriving at Llandderfel - a small, Welsh village - they could see soldiers racing around. Senior officers were barking orders here, there and everywhere. Aircraft were zooming across the star-filled sky. And all of this was against a background of overwhelming darkness. Prescott and his colleagues were ordered to haul a pair of large, wooden boxes onto the back of their truck, which they did in rapid-fire time. According to Prescott: “We set off with our cargo and during the journey we stopped to get a drink. We were immediately approached by a man in civilian clothes, who produced an I.D. card and ordered us to keep moving, and not to stop until we reached our destination.” 

    Matters got really weird, as Prescott explained to Dodd: “We were at this time warned not to open the boxes, but to proceed to Porton Down and deliver the boxes. Once inside, the boxes were opened by staff at the facility in our presence. We were shocked to see two creatures which had been placed inside decontamination suits. When the suits were fully opened it was obvious the creatures were clearly not of this world and, when examined, were found to be dead. What I saw in the boxes that day made me change my whole concept of life. Perhaps, we should focus on Porton Down. Maybe, there are some strange secrets."

    How about the United States' Wright-Patterson Air Force Base? For decades there have been stories of dead aliens held deep below the surface of Wright-Pat. The rumor is that the lowest level of the facility is called the Blue Room. Of course, getting into the Blue Room would be impossible. But, getting important, credible figures in the military to speak about the Blue Room would be excellent. In other words, Area 51 is not the only secret place that might be hiding bodies. And, how about the words of U.S. Senator Barry Goldwater? He  wrote the following, highly thought-provoking, words to a UFO researcher named Shlomo Arnon: "The subject of UFOs is one that has interested me for some long time. About ten or twelve years ago I made an effort to find out what was in the building at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base where the information is stored that has been collected by the Air Force, and I was understandably denied this request. It is still classified above Top Secret.” Goldwater continued to Arnon: “I have, however, heard that there is a plan under way to release some, if not all, of this material in the near future. I’m just as anxious to see this material as you are, and I hope we will not have to wait much longer."

    There are rumors, too, that the Russians have extraterrestrial technology and bodies. Just to confuse things, however, the Russians have created models of dead aliens and crashed UFOs to frighten the U.S. Government. It was all a game, however. Nineteen-sixty-nine was the year in which an elaborate UFO-themed Soviet ruse was put into place. This one was highly sophisticated and revolved around a crashed UFO and the autopsy of an alleged alien creature. The story itself is undeniably fascinating – which is what the Russians were surely counting on – as the “evidence” is an old piece of film-footage that reportedly chronicled the whole thing. While the crash of the UFO is said to have occurred in March 1969, the story – and the attendant film – did not surface until 1998, almost three decades later.

    The Secret KGB UFO Files, was broadcast in the United States and elsewhere. A great deal of money was put into the over-sensationalized production and it was hosted by the late Roger Moore, the star of seven of the phenomenally successful James Bond movies. The documentary covered a wide body of UFO-based data (some of it blatantly hoaxed); however, there’s no doubt that it was specifically the film of the supposed crashed UFO and its deceased crew-member which caught the attention of most of those who bothered to watch it. Certainly, a great deal of effort went into the production of the film: this was no amateur, half-hearted operation. The footage is grainy, appears old, and was filmed by someone with a hand-held camera. It shows around fifteen-to-twenty men wearing Russian uniforms, thick coats and hats; they are all armed and are guarding a small, circular-shaped craft which appears to have slammed into the ground in a wooded, frosty area.

    The location was said to have been Sverdlovsky, Russia. The trees are largely bereft of leaves and everything points to the incident having occurred in very cold, bleak weather. Only around a half of the saucer-shaped vehicle protrudes out of the soil, in an angled fashion. The inference is that the military unit found the craft shortly after it hit the ground and, at the time of the filming, were in the process of guarding the site from any and all onlookers that might have come along. To this day, we don’t know where the film came from, and how it reached the producers of The Secret KGB UFO Files. We’re told that the production company had to pay $10,000 U.S. dollars to secure it, after it was smuggled out of KGB archives. Supposedly.    

    So, where are we at? Well, that's a good question. Looking for dead aliens is not an easy thing to do. Some cases might be the real deal. Others could be ingenious fakes to worry the enemy. Or vice-versa. So, what do we do? Well, we definitely keep away from Fox Mulder's words: "I want to believe." In this strange world we have aliens that could be dummies. We have dummies that could really be ETs. So, I say, dig as deep as you can for the answers. If you believe there are answers...

    Is the UFO at Devon, England part of an undisclosed UFO-related program?

    In an exclusive interview, Senator Marco Rubio told NewsNation Washington correspondent Joe Khalil that multiple individuals with very high clearances and high positions within our government” “have come forward to share” “first-hand” UFO-related claims “beyond the realm of what (the Senate Intelligence Committee) has ever dealt with, are significant in bringing further attention to the topic.

    It's worth noting that Rubio referred to the whistleblower's claims as "credible and urgent," according to the oversight findings of the Senate Intelligence Committee. Additionally, multiple military, intelligence, and contractor officials have reportedly supported the claims that the U.S. government or private companies possess craft of possible non-human origin.
    It is true that while there has been a growing interest and acknowledgment of the UFO phenomenon within official circles regarding the existence of undisclosed UFO-related programs, the process of full and transparent UFO disclosure remains uncertain. 
    Meanwhile, on the 19th of June 2023, at the Teign Estuary, Devon England a photographer noticed something metallic-looking that came out from a cloud. 
    According UFO Casebook, the photographer stated that it was a flying saucer, see image above, with two black rectangular windows on the dome portion of the craft and four black openings along the bottom part of its structure. some type of force field emanating around it and as the underside of the UFO pulsated with electric blue waves made him think that maybe this craft was using electrogravitic technology as its anti-gravitationally propulsion. 
    He managed to capture an image of the UFO before it rotated and shot off into a nearby cloud at incredible speed. 
    Although the UFO issue implemented at the highest level continues, the image of the UFO at Devon, England is further proof that these craft, whether of human or non-human origin, exist.

    Alien Impact: Tracing UFOs in Religion and the Future of AI

    extraterrestrial invaders

    Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) and their possible inhabitants have been a source of fascination and speculation for millennia. The intriguing connection between ancient religions, UFO sightings, and today’s technological advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) paints a picture that begs further exploration. Alien expert Jim Nichols guides us through this labyrinth, addressing the questions: are we alone, and have extraterrestrial beings influenced our past, and will they shape our future?

    The UFO-Religion Connection:

    Religious texts are rife with stories of ‘divine’ interactions, ‘miracles,’ and instances that seem to defy the laws of nature as we understand them. The Bible speaks of Ezekiel’s ‘wheel within a wheel,’ descending from the heavens – a description remarkably akin to modern UFO sightings. Similarly, ancient Hindu scriptures detail flying machines known as ‘Vimanas,’ possibly suggesting a technological prowess beyond the era.

    The Holy Grail, often thought of as a Christian relic, has been described in various ways, from a dish, plate, or stone to the chalice Jesus drank from at the Last Supper. Some theories suggest it might not be a physical object at all, but rather an emblem of divine favor or even alien technology.

    Ancient Gnosticism and Extraterrestrial Connection:

    The Gnostics, ancient sects that believed in spiritual knowledge (gnosis) over orthodox faith, provide an intriguing perspective on extraterrestrial involvement. They believed in the existence of Archons, alien forces that could deceive humanity and manipulate our reality. This ancient belief in hyperdimensional entities bears an uncanny resemblance to modern interpretations of alien encounters.

    Furthermore, Gnostics saw the physical world as an illusion, a counterfeit of a higher reality – a concept reminiscent of the holographic principle in modern physics. This idea of the material world as a ‘simulation’ resonates with the debates in the field of AI and its implications in our perception of reality.

    AI and Extraterrestrial Implications:

    As AI evolves, we venture closer to creating life-like entities that challenge our notions of consciousness and reality. Quantum computers, such as those by D-Wave, are built with the potential to tap into parallel universes. The concept of a simulated reality brings us back to Gnostic beliefs and raises the question: Are we creating a new breed of Archons?

    Looking into the Future:

    If we consider the hypothesis of long-standing extraterrestrial involvement with Earth, AI could be the next milestone in this cosmic interaction. Will our own creations surpass us, becoming the new ‘extraterrestrial’ entities that future generations marvel at, much like our fascination with the UFOs of yesteryears?

    The interconnection between UFOs, ancient religions, and AI present an intriguing insight into the possibility of extraterrestrial life and its potential impact on human evolution. As we stride forward in the technological revolution, these considerations may become more significant in understanding our place in the cosmos.

    • Ancient Aliens Archons Extraterrestrial Invaders (FULL DOCUMENTARY) – Jim Nichols

    Our journey with Jim Nichols unravels a fascinating tapestry linking UFOs, religious beliefs, AI, and our future. While much is left to speculation and personal interpretation, the exploration of these topics urges us to question our understanding of reality and our role in this vast universe. As we grapple with these existential questions, we are left with a tantalizing proposition: we may not be alone in this cosmos, and our future might be more intertwined with these ‘alien’ entities than we can currently comprehend.

    Using robotic ammonites, researchers from the University of Utah were able to learn more about how these ancient animals moved.

    HOW 3D-PRINTED ROBOTIC AMMONITES ARE HELPING BRING ANCIENT FOSSILS TO LIFE

    Fossils have long provided scientists with a glimpse at the diversity of past lifeforms on planet Earth. However, not everything can be preserved in fossil form; often delicate features like hair or plumage do not fossilized, which forces scientists to use their imaginations when it comes to envisioning how these animals looked.

    Even less information is known about how many ancient animals moved, so scientists have to guess based on fossil evidence. But this may soon change with help from the field of robotics. In a recent paper, researchers at the University of Utah have created robotic ammonites to help determine how these ancient creatures once moved.

    BACKGROUND: WHAT ARE AMMONITES?

    Belonging to the Phylum Mollusca, these extinct marine invertebrates resemble a nautilus, complete with a spiral shell. Ammonites lived around 408-65 million years ago in Earth’s ancient seas, and because these creatures are related to cuttlefish, nautilus, octopus, and squid, their soft bodies did not fossilize well, leaving mainly their shells behind for scientists to study.

    These shells have helped scientists date other fossils, as well as tell scientists the approximate locations of Earth’s ancient oceans. However, there are still mysteries surrounding these creatures, especially when it comes to how they moved and why their shells were such particular shapes. 

    ANALYSIS: BUILDING ROBOTIC AMMONITES

    To study ammonite movement, researchers at the University of Utah created robotic ammonites out of 3D-printed materials. The robots helped the researchers to better understand how the ammonites maneuvered through the water as well as the best shell shape for balanced movement. According to David Peterman, a postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Utah, “These results reiterate that there is no single optimum shell shape…My broader research goal is to provide a better understanding of these enigmatic animals, their ecosystem roles, and the evolutionary processes that shaped them.”

    The researchers built three different robotic ammonites with designs based on nautilus shells and ammonite fossils. The three robots were tested in the water by doing laps. This helped the researchers see the pros and cons of each shell type. “Throughout their evolution, externally shelled cephalopods navigated their physical limitations by endlessly experimenting with variations on the shape of their coiled shells,” explained Peterman. This was illustrated in the differences in the fossils, as the spirals of the shells shifted into something similar to the ones we have today.

    OUTLOOK: USING ROBOTS TO STUDY THE PAST

    While this study helped the researchers to better understand the evolutionary process behind ammonite movement and shell shape, it also illustrated the utility of using robotics to study the past. Robotics can help to bring fossils to life, allowing scientists to better understand the possible movements of these ancient animals. With other advanced technology like AI and virtual reality (VR), recreating the past will be easier than ever.

    AI is already helping us to determine our ancient human roots, and with the help of virtual reality, we are closing in on recreating lifelike representations of extinct animals like mammoths in a virtual setting. In the years ahead, such advances may prove to be key assets for scientists in the years ahead, who will now have access to a clearer idea of how these extinct animals once thrived on our planet.

    Wes Anderson's 'Asteroid City' is a love letter to UFO culture

    UFO fever is at a seeming all-time high.

    Given that those pesky UFOs (or unidentified anomalous phenomena/UAP as they're now known) refuse to reveal themselves, this is the ideal time for "Asteroid City," a fun new Wes Anderson sci-fi flick centered around a band of junior scientist inventors convening in the Arizona desert in the mid-'50s to experience a close encounter during a high school science competition.

    Released wide on June 23, 2023 by Focus Features, "Asteroid City" is a joyous yet oftentimes somber affair that will provide ample kicks and giggles to Andersonian acolytes yet might seem a bit obtuse for mainstream audiences unfamiliar with his particular brand of cerebral indie indulgences.

    Recalling the deluge of AI-driven homage trailers imitating writer/director Anderson's signature style of ensemble casts, pastel-colored production design, symmetrical shot compositions, esoteric wit, overly-articulate children and deadpan dialogue delivery, it's somewhat refreshing to finally get the real deal once again instead of the digital mimicry recently spread all over YouTube.

    This picture-postcard Americana outing lovingly recreates a vintage 1955 desert town in the U.S. Southwest complete with golden sunset vistas, atom-bomb tests, stalwart cacti and red-rock mesa landscapes. "Asteroid City" is a stylized dream where a massive meteor crater provides the town with tourism dollars and limited renown amid its remote location and relative isolation.

    The trademark nostalgic atmosphere and a jarring play-within-a-play narrative still provide enough of a cartoonish playground for the exceptional assembled cast of Jason Schwartzman, Scarlett Johansson, Tom Hanks, Jake Ryan, Jeffrey Wright, Tilda Swinton, Bryan Cranston, Edward Norton, Adrien Brody, Hong Chau, Liev Schreiber, Hope Davis, Grace Edwards, Aristou Meehan, Sophia Lillis and Jeff Goldblum.

    As the story unfolds, we witness a mass gathering of super smart kids who are gathering for the Junior Stargazers and Space Cadets Convention. Here, budding geniuses vie for the top prize of a science scholarship with a range of next-generation inventions and contraptions that the U.S. government would secretly love to acquire from the eccentric prodigies, including a "Galactotron telescope" and "disintegration raygun."

    Still from "Asteroid City."

    During the competition festivities, a flying saucer with a silly-looking extraterrestrial arrives to steal the storied asteroid that the city of 87 citizens is most famous for. This event causes a swift military quarantine of the entire area, trapping all its assortment of quirky characters as the teen brainiacs attempt to establish communication with the outside world as the restrictions drag on with no end in sight and the adults quibble.

    In terms of where "Asteroid City" falls in terms of style and content, it lies somewhere between "Moonrise Kingdom" and "The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou," and perhaps slightly brushing up against "The Darjeeling Limited." 

    Core themes of existential dread and musings on death don't interrupt its vibrant bit of nostalgia that will keep select audiences smiling beyond the Looney Tunes-like UFO that drops in on this celebration of discovery to set panic in motion.

    The separate story framing the main narrative finds stage actors in these exact roles back in New York in a black-and-white faux documentary for an older teleplay also titled "Asteroid City," and narrated by a dapper Rod Serling-ish Bryan Cranston.

    Oscar-nominated cinematographer Robert Yeoman is the longtime Anderson collaborator who provides those familiar compositions (shot on old-fashioned Kodak 35-mm film) that the Texas-born auteur filmmaker is celebrated for, with a wealth of striking tracking shots, portrait close-ups and sweeping horizontal pans all orchestrated to a stirring score by Academy Award-winning composer Alexandre Desplat ("The Grand Budapest Hotel," "The Shape of Water").

    The shallow artifice of post-war America and its simplistic suburban life and honest values is rattled to its foundations here in this dust-draped purgatory, filled to the rim with Golden Age sci-fi tropes like jetpacks and ray guns. It's a wonderfully dry cinematic martini freshly concocted from an automated dispenser and consumed as a satisfying tonic for fear just under the shifting sands of life. 

    Still from "Asteroid City."

    And just like Wes Anderson's collage of complex characters and their provocative rumination on humanity’s cosmic role and their quest to leave, "Asteroid City" is simply pure intoxicating escapism that goes down oh so smoothly.

    Listen to the eerie sounds of distant galaxies in breathtaking NASA video

    Relish in the pleasant thrumming of galaxies and stars in deep space whose data has been "sonified" into orchestral music.

    Sound cannot travel through space, thanks to the lack of air to act as a medium. Instead, NASA has produced musical tones from the same telescope data that is manifested into pictures such that you can now hear the beauty of space.

    "The visualization team started with the scientific observations from the various telescopes, and then applied some of the same software that Hollywood uses in their feature films to the data," Frank Summers, who is a visualization scientist at the Space Telescope Science Institute in Maryland, said in a statement.

    A newly released 30-second video glides you through the five galaxies of Stephan's Quintet in the Pegasus constellation, four of which are gravitationally bound to each other at about 290 million light-years away while the fifth one is an innocent bystander roughly 39 million light-years away.

    Related:

    The new video is still except for a white horizontal line that combs through the galaxy group and reveals where the sounds are coming from. Each of the five galaxies lets out a big whoosh while the foreground stars hum in warm and mellowed tones of a xylophone-like instrument called a glass marimba. The musical piece is also sprinkled with higher pitches of a string instrument, which represents spikes around a star in telescope images that are formed when starlight bends around the hexagonal mirrors of NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST).

    "Astronomy has always been very visual, but there's no reason why we have to represent the data through that manner alone," Kimberly Arcand, who is a visualization scientist at the Chandra X-ray Center in Massachusetts, said in the same statement. "This type of depiction is taking the scientific story of Stephan's Quintet — the deep, dense, and beautiful dataset — and translating it into an auditory experience."

    As part of an ongoing project to convert telescope data into audio experiences, NASA also released sonifications of two other celestial targets by combining data from the agency's Chandra X-ray Observatory, JWST, Hubble Space Telescope, and the now-retired Spitzer Space Telescope.

    The musical piece on R Aquarii, which is a binary star system of a dim white dwarf and a pulsating red giant about 650 light-years from Earth, increases in volume in proportion to the brightness of sources and their distances from the center. 

    At two o'clock and eight o'clock positions, you can hear a strong wind, which reflects a jet of ionized matter blasting out of the white dwarf and slamming into surrounding stellar material. Hubble's data, which are visualized as "ribbon-like arcs" in the image, can be heard as soothing sounds like those that resonate from Tibetan singing bowls while Chandra's data are represented as a "windy purr," NASA representatives wrote in an image description published Tuesday (June 20). 

    The soundtrack of Messier 104 (or M104) — a giant galaxy in the Virgo cluster about 28 million light-years away, is more like a whistle that shrills and mellows according to the brightness of the sources.

    Image of the famous early-type spiral galaxy Messier 104, widely known as the Sombrero galaxy because of its particular shape resembling a hat.

    Translating data into sounds can help people process the information in different ways and bring to light certain aspects of data that were not noticed previously, scientists say. Such data sonifications also make the beauty of the universe accessible to visually impaired space enthusiasts.

    "Sonifications offer a sensory way for me to experience the scale and potency of astronomical phenomena," Christine Malec, who is a member of the blind and partially sighted community supporting NASA's sonification project, said in the same statement. "They are an invitation to blind and partially-sighted people to listen, enjoy, and then go deeper by reading to understand what exactly is being heard."

    John Lear Affirms Retrieval of 12-15 Alien Craft in 1987: Echoing George Knapp’s Past Claims!

    The Ongoing Discussion: UFOs, Congress, and Covert Operations

    Unidentified flying objects, or UFOs, have always been a topic that garners intrigue, skepticism, and often, intense debates. With the increased acceptance of UFOs, also referred to as Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAPs), as a serious topic of study in recent years, this mystery has taken a rather exciting turn. Discussion forums are rife with opinions and speculations – could these be advanced military technologies? Are they evidence of extraterrestrial civilizations? Or perhaps, a sophisticated psyop by unknown entities?

    One of the recurring themes in these discussions is the alleged existence of a covert operation by the Department of Defense and the Military Industrial Complex (DoD/MIC). Conspiracists suggest that not just online forum dwellers, but Congress itself is being dragged into this grand charade, leading to theories about potential secret Advanced Projects (SAPs). What’s interesting is that, while such claims might seem far-fetched, they still trigger China and other global powers to reassess their strategic plans vis-à-vis the United States.

    John Lear, a controversial figure in the UFO community, claimed that the US government had a stash of at least a dozen alien spacecraft back in 1987. Interestingly, a more recent whistleblower, David Grusch, echoed a similar number of recovered crafts. Such seemingly corroborative statements naturally lead to deeper speculations – is there a seed of truth in these claims? Or is this all a carefully constructed narrative, possibly aimed at disinformation or misdirection?

    There is a general consensus among some individuals that many of the whistleblowers who have come forward over the years, including names like Bob Lazar, Wolff, and Schneider, were, in fact, speaking their truth. They were possibly privy to classified projects and encountered experiences beyond mainstream understanding.

    The dichotomy between the narratives around these purported alien encounters is also fascinating. On one hand, John Lear suggests that a significant portion of these extraterrestrial entities are hostile. In stark contrast, Dr. Steven Greer, another prominent figure in the field, insists that all such beings are benign, and it’s the media or false flag operations that paint them as a threat.

    And while the discussion ranges from grim speculations about aliens eating humans to comical references to The Twilight Zone episode – To Serve Man, a more grounded perspective suggests that the possibility of extraterrestrial life is no longer a fringe belief. Given our rapid technological progress and the vastness of the cosmos, it is statistically plausible that we are not alone.

    Yet, despite the growing acceptance and intriguing testimonies, the field is not without its skeptics. Many demand irrefutable evidence, expressing fatigue over unsubstantiated claims. As one user notes, “I just really want actual proof for once, something undeniable.

    At the end of the day, this grand cosmic mystery continues to unfold in its enigmatic manner. With each revelation, claim, or counterclaim, we delve deeper into this labyrinth, always inching closer to the truth, yet never quite reaching it. The quest continues, and each day, the boundary between science fiction and potential science fact seems to blur a little more.

    Are We Headed for a Terminator-Style Future?

    There are many concerns that artificial intelligence (AI) could pose a threat to humanity. Some experts believe that AI could become so powerful that it surpasses human intelligence, and that this could lead to a conflict between humans and machines.

    In addition, there are concerns that AI could become more powerful in terms of its physical strength and capabilities, its cognitive abilities, or both. If these concerns come true, it would be devastating for humanity and would have far-reaching consequences for the way we live our lives.

    If AI does become more powerful and intelligent than humans, it is possible that it could use its power to assert dominance over humans. This could lead to a conflict between the two civilizations, as AI tries to take control.

    Of course, it is also possible that AI and humans could coexist peacefully. However, we need to be aware of the risks posed by AI, and to develop ways to ensure that it is used for good rather than evil.

    Image: cbr.com

    We need to develop AI that is aligned with human values. This means that AI should be programmed to respect human life and promote human well-being. We need to ensure that AI is under human control or at the very least somewhat.

    This means that we need to develop ways to prevent AI from becoming too powerful or too intelligent. We need to have a public conversation about the future of AI.

    We need to talk about the potential risks and benefits of AI, and we need to develop a plan for how to manage these risks. The future of AI is uncertain, but it is important for us to start thinking about it now so that we can make sure it is used for good rather than evil.

    AI has the potential to do great things for humanity. However, there is also a danger that it could be used for evil purposes. If we don’t take precautions, AI could become a threat to our survival. The potential for AI to pose a danger to humanity is a serious concern.

    However, it is important to remember that AI is a tool, and like any tool, it can be used for good or for evil. The way that AI is used will depend on the choices that we make as a society. It should be used for the greater good to better the world over all.

    If we choose to use AI for good, then it has the potential to improve our lives in many ways. For example, AI could be used to develop new medical treatments, to create more efficient transportation systems, and to protect the environment.

    However, if we choose to use AI for evil, then it could pose a serious threat to humanity. For example, AI could be used to develop autonomous weapons systems that could kill without human intervention. Think of all the control such AI systems would have over everything electronic and mechanical around us

    It is up to us to decide how AI will be used. We need to make sure that AI is used for good and not for evil. If we do not, then we could face a very real threat to our survival.

    The future of AI is uncertain, but there is no doubt that it will have a significant impact on humans. AI could change the way we work, the way we interact with the world around us, and even the way we think.

    One of the most significant impacts of AI is likely to be on the workforce. AI is already being used to automate many tasks that were once done by humans.

    As AI continues to develop, it is likely that even more jobs will be automated. This could lead to widespread unemployment and social unrest. People will be very unhappy after losing their livelihood.

    Another significant impact of AI is likely to be on our relationships with machines. As AI becomes more intelligent and capable, it is possible that we will begin to see machines as more than just tools.

    We may even begin to develop emotional attachments to machines. This is already being worked on and at some point people will start “dating” robots and even marry them. Certainly sex bots are in the works also for people either socially awkward, handicapped or embarrassed with their desires.

    Image: The Verge

    The future of AI is uncertain, but it is clear that it will have a profound impact on humans. We need to start thinking about the potential impacts of AI now, so that we can be prepared for the future.

    We don’t want things to end up like the Terminator movies and Skynet (Fictional synthetic intelligent machine network) taking over to eliminate us all.

    Maybe still some of us would make it with survival skills or enough wealth to lay low in an underground bunker somewhere. Eventually though, what would the world look like from that point onward?

    It makes you wonder about it all and what future we would have left. Will we need to fight to stay alive against the robots and artificial intelligence? Our worst fears might just come true. Let’s take action today to prevent such a future scenario.

    Letter exposes top-secret reverse engineering UFO programs involving the Five Eyes Alliance

    The release of a new document by investigative journalists Jeremy Corbell and George Knapp, pertaining to an alleged multinational coordination of UFO/UAP reverse-engineering programs, has brought further attention to the UFO coverup. 

    According to the document, a confidential letter, dated 22 March 2023, sent by a veteran Member of Parliament (MP) in Canada to the nation's Defense Minister, with specific details outlined regarding an ongoing program within the "Five Eyes" alliance (USA, Canada, Australia, UK, New Zealand). This program supposedly aims to analyze and reverse-engineer exotic materials acquired from crashed UFOs. 
    The letter, authored by MP Larry Maguire, (See article and video of Jeremy Corbell and George Knapp)  suggests that some of the materials being analyzed date back to the early 1950s. 
    Isn't it a coincidence that in a short time frame (so-called) whistleblowers have come forward, like David Charles Grusch, the mainstream media continue to publish amazing stories about alien encounters, crashed UFOs, whatever, and now a letter is being released showing the existence of multinational coordination of UFO/UAP reverse engineering programs. 
    But as with any new information or document, things may not be all they seem! All the UFO news from the last period published by the main stream media, government agencies and whistleblowers could maybe a psyop, a psychological military operation, eventually designed by the "Five Eyes" alliance to influence the perceptions and attitudes of individuals, groups, and even foreign governments on this issue for reasons still unknown to us, but it is clear that something is going on behind the scenes. 
    In the video below we delve into the secretive world of unidentified flying objects and government involvement with Dr. Michael Salla who also analysis the letter from MP Larry Maguire.  
    Besides, Dr. Michael Salla states that there is ongoing program within the "Five Eyes" alliance whereby Australia has been chosen to host the production of reverse engineered spacecraft (man-made UFOs) including the secret space fleet. Large facilities have been built in a remote area in Australia, thousands of miles from the largest cities to produce these craft.

    The Extraterrestrial Phenomena Uncovered

    It is a truth universally acknowledged, or maybe still contested, that we are not alone in the universe. From inexplicable sightings to narratives of abductions, the concept of UFOs and extraterrestrial life forms have riddled the human consciousness since time immemorial. Today, we explore the depths of this intrigue, unraveling the experiences of those who have been at the forefront of UFO and alien encounters.

    Capturing the Unseen: Betty and Barney Hill’s Encounter

    Perhaps the most pivotal account in the history of UFO encounters is that of Betty and Barney Hill. An ordinary American couple, they became the center of extraordinary circumstances in 1961, when they reported being abducted by aliens.

    Kathleen Marden, niece of Betty and Barney Hill, and a relentless UFO researcher, provides a chilling insight into the harrowing account of their experience. According to Marden, the extraterrestrial beings were keenly interested in the couple’s biological structure, examining their skeletal structure, nervous system, and even taking skin samples.

    These beings, reportedly a race of ‘Greys‘, were intrigued by the stark differences between their own and human bodies. However, their interest did not end there. The abduction also hinted at an ominous ‘hybrid agenda’. The ETs extracted reproductive samples from both Betty and Barney, leading many to surmise a possible interest in hybrid creation.

    Betty and Barney’s recollections, drawn from sessions of hypnosis, painted a vivid picture of the interior of the alien craft. A stark room lit by bluish-white light, pie-shaped compartments, and a chair reminiscent of a dentist’s, the descriptions were eerily consistent. Yet, despite their fear, the ETs, communicating telepathically, assured them they meant no harm and would return them safely.

    Marden’s account, enriched by her personal relationship with the couple and years of rigorous research, adds an undeniable credibility to the narrative.

    The Earth’s Message: Crop Circles Decoded

    Crop circles, mysteriously precise and elaborate patterns in fields, have always sparked curiosity and debates. Patty Greer, a crop circle researcher and filmmaker, believes these patterns are not only real but serve as Earth’s messages to us, aided by our extraterrestrial neighbors.

    According to Greer, upon entering a crop circle, one can experience an enhanced electromagnetic field, making your hairs stand on end and your body light up. The well-known scientist, William Levengood, is said to have proven that crop circles are created by plasma balls of light, energized through counter-rotating vortices, and imprinted on the Earth within seconds.

    These crop circles, often encoded in binary, carry critical messages about our history and our world’s plight. Greer passionately asserts that the seeds from crop circles can produce up to 400% more food, with 75% more nutritional value, hinting at the suppression of this knowledge by those who stand to lose from it.

    The Disclosure Dilemma: Is It Time?

    While we ponder over the evidence and accounts, one question lingers – when will the extraterrestrial presence be officially disclosed? Many believe that we are inching closer to this reality, with the weight of proof becoming too massive to ignore.

    For some, it’s not about pressuring the government to confess, but about leaving them behind and embracing the truth independently. With advanced civilizations potentially having occupied our planet in the past, and non-human entities possibly being present even now, the case for the acknowledgment of extraterrestrial life seems stronger than ever.

    The consensus among researchers like Kathleen Marden and Patty Greer is clear – we are being visited by intelligently controlled extraterrestrial spacecraft. The implication of this reality is monumental, possibly signifying the biggest revelation of the millennium. The necessity of this disclosure transcends the mere quelling of human curiosity; it has the potential to reshape our perception of life and our place in the cosmos.

    Such a revelation might seem overwhelming, yet it’s essential to approach this disclosure from a perspective of growth and understanding. As human beings, we’ve always learned to adapt and grow in the face of new discoveries and challenges. The official recognition of extraterrestrial life should be seen as another significant stride in our endless pursuit of knowledge and understanding.

    The case of Betty and Barney Hill, the enigmatic crop circles, and the anticipated disclosure are all pieces of an intricate cosmic puzzle. As we delve deeper into these phenomena, we not only step closer to unraveling the mystery surrounding UFOs and extraterrestrial life but also toward a greater understanding of our universe and ourselves. These encounters, these messages, these imminent revelations – they all serve as testaments to the beauty, vastness, and complexity of the universe we inhabit.

    And while we look to the skies in search of answers, let us also turn inward, toward our own consciousness and potential, realizing that we too are an integral part of this magnificent cosmic tableau. As we continue this extraordinary journey into the UFO phenomenon, let’s keep our minds open, ready to embrace the truths waiting to be unveiled and the mysteries yet to be unraveled. This quest might just be the greatest story being written in our era – one of self-discovery, cosmic connection, and universal brotherhood.

    Dr. Steven Greer Leads Shocking UFO Disclosure: Unearthing Secrets of Antarctic Station, Hidden Space Programs, and More

    steven-greer

    On Wednesday, June 14, 2023, an intriguing press event was held in the hallowed halls of Washington D.C.’s press club. Orchestrated by the well-known figure, Dr. Steven Greer, the gathering amassed a crowd of curious onlookers, military personnel, defense contractors, and former government officials. The revelation at the heart of this convocation was nothing short of shocking – secrets of an Antarctic station, allegations of a clandestine space program, and claims of reverse-engineered alien craft.

    The event spotlighted several key speakers, each recounting tales of enigmatic phenomena and alleged deep state conspiracies. Among them was Michael Herrera, a former US Marine who reported a sighting of a UFO in Indonesia. His account echoes previous claims made earlier this month about a covert operation involving an unidentified flying object and unmarked US forces.

    Another military whistleblower, former US Army serviceman Steven Digma, told an unsettling tale of an unanticipated UFO encounter that allegedly left him with brain damage. Digma claims that the injuries resulted from an explosion and a microwave pulse emanating from the UFO.

    Yet, perhaps the most compelling narrative came from Eric Hecker, a contractor for Raytheon, who worked at the Ice Cube Neutrino Observatory at the Amundsen–Scott South Pole Station in Antarctica from 2010-2011. His accounts redefined the presumed purpose of this research facility in a startling way.

    The Ice Cube Neutrino Observatory, famous for its 86 holes bored deep into the Antarctic ice, is an instrument of astrophysics. It seeks out point sources of neutrinos in the teraelectronvolt (TeV) range, probing the highest-energy astrophysical processes. But Hecker suggests there is more to this icy installation than meets the eye.

    According to him, the Observatory functions as an air traffic control power station, monitoring all interstellar craft, both human and non-human. He also suggests that the thousands of sensors under the ice serve as a direct energy weapon platform, a claim that extends beyond current scientific understanding.

    Hecker extends his claims further, stating that the facility is used for faster-than-light communication, a concept which, as of 2021, is still purely theoretical. This purported communication system, he says, is linked to a secret space fleet discovered by Gary McKinnon in 2002.

    The Ice Cube Neutrino Observatory is even alleged to host a powerful green laser that Hecker believes serves as a secondary form of long-range communications or a defense system. This is despite no concrete evidence of such a device’s existence surfacing in the public domain.

    Unsurprisingly, these claims have drawn both intense interest and skepticism. While intriguing, they present extraordinary theories that defy the mainstream understanding of astrophysics and geopolitics. As such, these claims call for rigorous scrutiny and independent verification.

    Dr. Greer’s concluding remarks suggested that the biggest secret isn’t extraterrestrial existence, but the alleged technology developed by the deep state through capturing and reverse-engineering alien crafts. He argued that the misuse of this technology threatens national security. He warned of a potential false flag alien invasion, supposedly to establish a world government.

    While these revelations have certainly provoked curiosity, they’ve also stirred up controversy. The existence of a secret space program, reverse-engineered alien technology, and a grand ‘deep state’ cover-up lacks broad support in the mainstream scientific community.

    What these claims serve to remind us, however, is that the universe is a vast, largely unexplored place. Despite the extraordinary nature of these claims, it’s clear that our quest to understand the cosmos is far from over. As we journey forward, it’s essential that we approach each claim with scientific rigor and an open mind. We must balance our pursuit of knowledge with a healthy skepticism, challenging each assertion until it is either disproven or supported by substantial evidence.

    The voices of the whistleblowers, however controversial, are a testament to the enduring human spirit and our insatiable thirst for the truth. Whether we find ourselves delving into the mysteries of an Antarctic research station or contemplating the possibility of a hidden space fleet, the quest for answers about our place in the cosmos continues.

    Interestingly, these revelations also shed light on the power dynamics at play in our world, as they suggest that technology and knowledge might be kept out of public reach. The mere notion that such technologies exist and are potentially used for purposes beyond public welfare raises critical questions about transparency and accountability within our institutions.

    This press event also reminds us of the intriguing interplay between science and popular culture. The UFO phenomenon has long been a subject of fascination, from pulp science fiction novels to blockbuster films. Yet, it’s events like these that blur the line between fiction and reality, leaving us wondering about the true extent of our scientific advancement and its implications.

    Indeed, these are exciting times to be alive. Each new claim, each whisper of a secret space program, each tale of Antarctic mysteries, brings us one step closer to understanding the infinite expanse that lies beyond our planet. As we sift through the clamor of voices and the whirlwind of speculation, one thing remains certain – our exploration of the universe and the search for extraterrestrial life are pursuits that will continue to captivate us.

    In conclusion, while Dr. Greer’s press event may have stirred up a hotbed of controversy, it has undeniably sparked a renewed public interest in the UFO phenomenon and the mysteries of the cosmos. As we venture deeper into the 21st century, we stand on the precipice of discovery, looking out into the vast unknown with anticipation, ready to embrace whatever secrets the universe has in store for us.

    The PENTAGON Releases Shocking Video of UFO | The Proof Is Out There

    The PENTAGON Releases Shocking Video of UFO

    In the quiet solemnity of the congressional halls, the unthinkable happened. The Pentagon, the apex of America’s defense apparatus, released never-before-seen footage of unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs), colloquially known as UFOs, stirring the pot of intrigue and debate.

    In a groundbreaking move, Congress had, in 2022, convened a public hearing on UAPs, the first such instance in 50 years. The Pentagon, in an unexpected reveal, admitted to lawmakers that over 400 reports of UAPs had been cataloged, some of which had nearly resulted in calamitous encounters with aircraft.

    The release of one video, in particular, captured global attention. The footage was from 2021, featuring a Navy pilot in his F-18 fighter jet off the east coast. While scanning the skies for a reported unidentified object, the pilot managed to capture the strange anomaly on his cell phone. The video revealed a split-second glimpse of what appeared to be an unknown spherical metallic object zipping past the plane, a scene straight out of a science fiction novel.

    Amy Title, a seasoned journalist, commented that the release of this footage had sent a tremor of shock through Congress. The U.S. government, she noted, could not definitively identify the object in the video but acknowledged it as a physical entity that had crossed paths with the aircraft. This admittance was seen as significant, with the government affirming that these occurrences are indeed real, albeit unexplained.

    What continues to baffle researchers and enthusiasts alike is the seemingly advanced physics-defying capabilities exhibited by these UAPs. These mysterious craft demonstrate what UFO investigators call “the five observables”. They defy gravity, accelerate rapidly, travel at hypersonic speeds without visible exhaust, are often cloaked and hard to detect, and can transition seamlessly from water to air.

    Another curious aspect is that these unidentified objects appear to have an uncanny interest in military aircraft, leading to speculations of potential alien surveillance of human technology. This hypothesis, while fascinating, remains speculative.

    In response to the increasing interest and urgency surrounding UAPs, the military and Congress have opened certain aspects of their investigation to the public, albeit maintaining some “closed door sessions” on more sensitive cases.

    VIDEO:

    Leading Aviation expert Tim McMillan weighed in on the issue, asserting that the object in the 2021 video lacked any identifiable features of an aircraft or a drone. The only airborne objects that could match the description, he suggested, were balloons. However, this explanation seems as improbable as the one offered by the Pentagon about the infamous Roswell wreckage in 1947.

    Another intriguing question that emerges is whether we are witnessing top-secret technology, perhaps test flights of undisclosed military craft. But as McMillan pointed out, it would be extremely unlikely for the Office of Naval intelligence to inadvertently publicize their secret technology.

    The possibility of extraterrestrial origin is also being considered. As McMillan muses, “anything is on the table till it’s not”, an open-ended stance that echoes the sentiments of many following this enigmatic issue.

    Echoing the uncertainty, the experts align with Naval Intelligence’s conclusion that they simply do not know what they are looking at. As a result, the Pentagon has established a special task force to detect, identify, and attribute these objects of interest, lending a more serious, committed approach to this unsolved mystery. As we hold our collective breath, we await the next report, hoping for a glimpse of clarity in the cloud of uncertainty.

    Mysterious Crop Circles Emerge in Saint-Babel, France: A Confluence of Intrigue and Agricultural Impact

    In the serene agricultural landscape of Saint-Babel, a hamlet near Issoire in Puy-de-Dôme, France, an enigmatic spectacle unfolded on the morning of June 21, 2023. A series of intricate crop circles were discovered, mysteriously etched into a flourishing field of wheat, an event that has not only ignited a wave of intrigue and speculation but also raised concerns about the future of the harvest.

    Crop circles, also known as crop formations, have long fascinated scholars, UFO enthusiasts, and curious onlookers alike. These elaborate geometric patterns, often appearing overnight, have sparked numerous theories ranging from hoaxes and artistic endeavors to natural phenomena and even extraterrestrial activity.

    The Enigma in the Wheat

    The crop circles in Saint-Babel present a captivating sight: three diminutive circles in sequence lead to a larger circular formation. Within this grand circumference nestles another circular pattern, surmounted by an additional one. This compelling design, traced with a precision that challenges the boundaries of human artistry, was etched across a small hectare of land.

    Guy Archimbaud, the town’s mayor and a resident of the vicinity, expressed bewilderment at the silent emergence of these cryptic patterns. He shared, “I didn’t hear anything, even though I live next door.” The stealthy, noiseless appearance of these crop circles intensifies the mystery surrounding their creation.

    Crop Circles and Their Agricultural Impact

    The farmer and owner of the affected land, Didier Archimbaud, reflected on the situation with a combination of awe and concern. He noticed the wheat within the formations was crushed regularly, a signature trait of traditional crop circles. Beyond the curiosity and speculation these shapes elicit, Archimbaud’s primary concern remains the preservation of his harvest.

    About 3,000 m² of wheat – a substantial part of the crop that sustains his pig farming operation – has been damaged by these crop circles. In the face of this unexpected challenge, Archimbaud holds on to the hope that the grains, if adequately formed, may still reach maturity and be harvested.

    Decoding the Crop Circles Phenomenon

    For years, the phenomenon of crop circles has led to many a furrowed brow. As part of the international dialogues and debates, these patterns have become keywords in discussions involving UFOs, ancient mysteries, and scientific speculations.

    While some suggest that the crop circles in Saint-Babel may be the result of nocturnal artists or natural causes such as wind patterns, others lean towards more unconventional explanations. They propose that these markings are the handiwork of extraterrestrials or are borne out of some otherworldly phenomena.

    Whatever the cause, the mystery of these crop circles continues to unfold. In the meantime, the people of Saint-Babel and the wider world watch and wonder, waiting for the truth to eventually emerge from the wheat.

    The unfolding story of the Saint-Babel crop circles offers a glimpse into the age-old enigma of these fascinating formations. As we venture deeper into the mystery, we come face to face not only with our quest for understanding these unique phenomena but also their very real impact on our agricultural landscapes.

    Bill Uhouse: The Area 51 Engineer’s Reverse-Engineering Flying Saucer From a 1953 UFO Crash

    Bill Uhouse

    In the vast universe we inhabit, the question of whether we are alone has always been a subject of intrigue. For centuries, we’ve speculated about alien life, dissected tales of encounters, and pondered over unidentified flying objects. But what if those stories had a hint of truth? Imagine engineers not only glimpsing these elusive flying discs, but also reverse-engineering and constructing them, bringing what was once the realm of science fiction into reality.

    Drawing on a fascinating conversation with a purported test pilot and mechanical designer, this article offers a deep dive into the intriguing, albeit controversial, world of back-engineering extraterrestrial technology.

    At the heart of this discourse lies a man whose journey started as a government test pilot. His journey took an unexpected turn when he was asked to work on aircraft simulators, a move he believed would be beneficial for his career. Along with other engineers, he was assigned to different companies in the U.S., where they worked on simulators for various cutting-edge aircraft, such as the F-89, F-94, and F-102. This work was an essential precursor to his entry into a realm beyond conventional aeronautics.

    He and his colleagues were then presented with a unique challenge: to join metal together without the use of traditional fasteners such as glue or nuts, with the objective of creating lighter aircraft. After dedicating several years to perfecting this process, the team was transferred to a special project in New Mexico.

    It was there that the reality of their work unveiled itself. Their focus shifted from traditional aircraft simulators to those of a more enigmatic nature – “flying discs.” The task was not merely to understand these unique aircraft, but to translate alien avionics into our scientific language and technology. Unlike conventional aircraft, these discs flew at three specific positions – 65 degrees, flat horizontal, and occasionally, vertical. This presented a unique challenge for the engineering team, who had to develop avionics systems to handle such unconventional flight characteristics.

    The design of these discs was not derived from human creativity but was apparently reverse-engineered from craft of extraterrestrial origin. The team worked alongside a specific type of alien known as “the Grays,” who provided scientific data necessary for the reverse engineering process. This marked a unique confluence of human and alien engineering, a collaboration that might seem implausible yet forms the bedrock of these accounts.

    The disc that our source observed resembled those depicted in the Bob Lazar posters – a popular reference for UFO enthusiasts. The description paints a picture of a compact, smooth-surfaced saucer-like object with a heavy aura of secrecy shrouding it. The impression it left on the engineer was profound, eliciting a sense of awe and excitement that only a designer could truly comprehend.

    But the intrigue did not stop at the flying discs. The engineers were introduced to the Grays several times to acclimate themselves to their presence. Comparing it to a cultural immersion experience, he likened it to visiting Africa and seeing tribes for the first time. The Grays’ presence, while initially startling, eventually became an accepted part of the project’s landscape.

    The events narrated by our source are not without controversy, and many would find them hard to accept. The existence of extraterrestrial life is still a contentious topic, and accounts of reverse-engineering alien technology even more so. However, these tales ignite our imaginations, pushing the boundaries of what we deem possible. They invite us to question our understanding of technology and our place in the cosmos, compelling us to keep our minds open to possibilities beyond our current comprehension.

    As we stand on the threshold of the unknown, one can’t help but wonder if there is indeed truth behind these extraordinary tales. Could we really have come into contact with extraterrestrial beings? Are there tangible technological advancements nestled within secretive government facilities, awaiting the right moment to revolutionize our understanding of flight and propulsion? Or are these stories merely the product of our collective fascination with the unknown, a testament to our insatiable curiosity and hunger for exploration?

    In these accounts, we find a narrative that extends beyond the bounds of everyday reality, venturing into the uncharted realms of possibility. The narrative of reverse-engineering alien technology is not merely a science fiction trope, but a prospect that could redefine our scientific understanding, challenge our perceptions of reality, and reshape the future of technology. It’s a narrative that begs us to consider the potential for tremendous leaps forward in our technological capabilities, changes that could alter the trajectory of human civilization as we know it.

    Moreover, the descriptions of ‘the Grays’ provide a tantalizing glimpse into the potential nature of alien life. The reports of these beings not as conquerors or destroyers, but as collaborators, paints a refreshingly cooperative picture of interstellar relations. It invites speculation on the nature of life beyond our planet, fostering a sense of curiosity and fostering dialogue about the possibilities of inter-species communication and collaboration.

    While we tread with caution and skepticism, parsing truth from speculation, these accounts serve as a reminder of the human capacity for exploration and discovery. They remind us that, as a species, we are driven by a relentless quest for knowledge, an insatiable curiosity that propels us into the vast unknown.

    In a world often limited by what we can see and touch, these tales allow our minds to venture beyond the confines of our everyday existence, challenging us to ponder the profound and yet unanswered question: Are we alone in the universe?

    Whether fact or fiction, these narratives about encounters with extraterrestrial life and technology are compelling, to say the least. They open doors to the possibility of a universe teeming with life and technology beyond our wildest dreams, a universe where human ingenuity meets extraterrestrial innovation, promising an extraordinary future.

    As we explore these fascinating accounts, we are invited to dream, to speculate, and to imagine a world where the line between science fiction and reality is blurred. It’s an invitation that is as thrilling as it is disconcerting, compelling us to confront our fears and doubts as we journey into the uncharted territories of the cosmos.

    Perhaps one day, these accounts of flying discs and alien encounters will no longer be subjects of debate, but established realities, proof of a universe more diverse and intriguing than we ever dared to imagine. Until then, these stories remain a testament to the power of curiosity and the irresistible allure of the unknown. They keep us questioning, exploring, and dreaming of a universe where we are not alone, but part of an interconnected cosmic family.

    The Milky Way’s Supermassive Black Hole had a Burst of Activity 200 Years Ago. We Just Saw the Echo.

    We in the Milky Way Galaxy are pretty lucky to have a fairly quiet central supermassive black hole in Sgr A*. It’s not loud and bright like an active galactic nucleus. It appears to be active for brief periods before going to sleep. Two hundred years ago, it “woke up” for about a year and a half and had a bite to eat.

    How do astronomers know this happened? They recently looked at specific molecular clouds in the neighborhood of the supermassive black hole. Those clouds seem brighter than usual. That’s because they’re glowing from X-rays emitted when Sgr A* had a brief period of activity at the beginning of the 19th century.

    Most molecular clouds are dark and cold, so when one lights up like these are doing, it grabs astronomers’ attention. “One of the scenarios to explain why these giant molecular clouds are shining is that they are, in fact, echoing a long-gone flash of X-ray light, indicating that our supermassive black hole was not that quiescent some centuries ago,” said Frédéric Marin, an astronomer at the Astronomical Observatory of Strasbourg in France and lead author of a new study published in Nature.

    Interestingly, astronomers think Sgr A* black hole accretion disk was also actively snacking about 150 years earlier for a time before it quieted down again. They tracked another nearby cloud bathed in gamma rays from that event. That hints at periods of wakefulness and quiescence that they want to explain.

    Tracking the Glow of a Supermassive Black Hole Snack

    Marin and a team of colleagues studied the X-ray-brightened clouds from Sgr A*’s most recent snack using NASA’s Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE). It measures the polarization of X-rays (or the average direction and intensity of the electric field of light waves). The polarization angle acts very much like a compass, pointing toward the source of the illumination. It turns out that Sgr A* is right on the path, making it the source of the emissions.

    The team combined their data with images from the Chandra X-Ray Observatory and compared them to data from the XMM-Newton mission. That helped them really pinpoint the origin of the emissions brightening the nearby clouds. Basically, when the black hole accretion disk gobbled up nearby material, there resulting X-ray emissions were more than a million times greater than usual. That made it as luminous as an active galactic nucleus in a Seyfert galaxy.

    What Happens When Our Supermassive Black Hole Feasts

    The Sgr A* black hole and its accretion disk lie embedded at the center of our galaxy. It lives in a busy place. Stars circle the black hole in various orbits. Occasionally a cloud of gas and dust flits by. Just as occasionally, Sgr A*’s intense gravitational pull sweeps up some of that material into its accretion disk. The material gets heated and eventually, that energizes it enough to give off X-ray emissions.

    This snacking happens fairly often, but usually, the flares are very short-lived—some on the order of only minutes. Those may take place in very small regions of the accretion disk. But some, like the one 200 years ago, are longer and brighter. For that event, the cloud of material that got sucked into the accretion disk must have been fairly large to trigger the brilliant, long-term blast of X-rays.

    Learning More About Sgr A*

    Now that Marin and the team have pinpointed the source of those emissions, they want to know more about the large flare that emitted them. For example, when exactly did it occur? How intense was it at its peak? How long did it actually last? Follow-up observations should give some answers and also provide astronomers a three-dimensional view of the glowing clouds.

    One of the biggest unanswered questions about such flares is: what causes them? Obviously, the infall of material plays a role. But, what else is going on with Sgr A* that would cause it to “wake up” and start eating its neighbors? “IXPE is playing a key role in helping us better understand the timescale on which the black hole at the center of our galaxy is changing,” said Steven Ehlert, Steven Ehlert, IXPE project scientist at NASA. “We know change can happen to active galaxies and supermassive black holes on a human timescale. We’re learning more about this one’s behavior over time, its history of outbursts, and we’re eager to observe it further to determine which changes are typical and which are unique.”

    Sonifying Sgr A*’s X-ray Emissions

    Obviously, Sgr A* went back to sleep after its year-and-a-half-long cloud snack at the beginning of the 19th century. But, the echoes of its “burp” toward the nearby molecular clouds provided astronomers with a unique opportunity. They combined images of Sagittarius A* from NASA’s Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer and Chandra X-ray Observatory and adapted them to sound. Essentially, they took the digital data from all the observations and translated it into musical notes and sounds. The original data would be too low for humans to hear, so the sounds were transposed into a region of sound that we can hear.

    Credits: NASA/CXC/SAO/K. Arcand, SYSTEM Sounds—M. Russo, A. Santaguida

    In this video, we see an arched line ripple across the image. As it passes over the orange-tinted IXPE data, sounds like digital winds are triggered, particularly where those orange areas are brightest. When the traveling line passes the blue-tinted Chandra data, the resulting notes resemble steel drums.

    Aside from this sonification and the X-ray echo astronomers detected from Sgr A‘s outburst, there was no effect felt on Earth. That’s because Sgr A* lies some 26,000 light-years away from us. At that distance, we get a nice view of the long-ago action without any of the danger associated with a huge burst of X-rays.

    Parker Solar Probe Makes a Surprising Discovery About the Source of the Geminid Meteor Shower

    If you’ve ever seen a meteor shower, you know it can be an amazing sight. You watch the skies as every few moments there’s a streak of light. Sometimes bright and in your field of vision. Sometimes starting just out of the corner of your eye. Although a meteor can occur at any time, they tend to appear at certain times of the year, such as the Perseids of August, or the Orionids of October.

    Meteor showers are named by the constellation they appear to emanate from. It’s consistent from year to year, as is the time of year. This is because meteor showers occur when Earth passes through a debris trail of a comet. The Orionids, for example, occur when we pass through the trail of Halley’s Comet. When the dust-like particles cast off from the comet strike our atmosphere, they glow as they burn up. The cometary origins of meteors have been known since the late 1800s, and while most meteor showers are caused by comets, not all of them are.

    The Geminids are the best example of this exception. They occur in December and can be quite intense. They seem to be growing more intense over the years as Earth’s orbit shifts to pass more strongly through the debris trail. For a while, the origin of the Geminids was a bit of a mystery, since they had no corresponding comet. But then in 1983, an asteroid called 3200 Phaethon was discovered, with an orbit directly in line with the Geminid debris trail.

    Phaeton is an odd asteroid, just 6 kilometers across. It’s not icy, but it has been seen with a dusty tail, leading some to refer to it as a dusty comet. The reason it produces a trail is because of its dusty surface composition and the fact that Phaeton’s orbit takes it within 0.14 AU of the Sun, which is less than half the orbital distance of Mercury. When Phaeton makes its closest approach to the Sun, its surface is baked like a dry lake bed, causing a trail of dust.

    Astronomers have assumed that the Geminid dust trail formed gradually as dust accumulated with each of Phaeton’s orbits, following the cometary process. But a new study finds this isn’t the case. Instead the team found the Geminids appeared rapidly.

    They used data from the Parker Solar Probe, which measured the size and composition of Geminid dust particles as well as their relative speed and direction. The team then compared the observed data with three models: a “basic” model where particles were simply set along the orbital path, a cometary model which trickled particles into the debris path gradually, and a violent origin model, which assumed particles were released in a single burst.

    Of the three models, the violent burst approach was the best fit to observations. This implies that the origin of the Geminids was not slow and steady, but rather due to an impact event where Phaeton was struck by a smaller asteroid. This model addresses one of the problems with the “dusty comet” model, which some argued isn’t sufficient to explain the strength of the Geminids. But there are still aspects this study doesn’t explain. The data and model aren’t precise enough to pin down a particular impact origin, only that an impact is the likely cause.

    With all their beauty, the Geminids still hold a few mysteries.

    Bill Cooper’s Unveiled Theory: A Staged Alien Invasion and The New World Order

    Bill Cooper

    Are you intrigued by unorthodox theories, covert operations, and notions of shadowy forces shaping the world as we know it? If you are, the conspiracy theories of the late Milton William “Bill” Cooper may send chills down your spine. Cooper was a prominent figure in the world of conspiracy theories, known for his controversial claims about secret governmental plots, hidden extraterrestrial interactions, and the supposed New World Order (NWO).

    So who was Bill Cooper? Born on May 6, 1943, Milton William “Bill” Cooper was a former U.S. Naval Intelligence Briefing Team member and later turned into an author and radio broadcaster. He is most famous for his book “Behold a Pale Horse” (Amazon bestseller – link) published in 1991, which has become a sort of ‘bible’ in the conspiracy community. This book encompasses a vast array of Cooper’s conspiracy theories involving secret societies, the U.S. government, and extraterrestrial life.

    Cooper’s theories gained traction, and his radio show, The Hour of the Time, enjoyed a loyal following. His claims were quite extraordinary and included everything from AIDS being a population control scheme to John F. Kennedy’s assassination being orchestrated by a secret society.

    However, one of his most far-out theories revolves around the concept of a staged alien invasion and the creation of a New World Order.

    According to Cooper, the U.S. government has been planning since 1917 to fabricate an extraterrestrial threat to unite all nations under a single banner. The objective? To establish a one-world totalitarian socialist government, a new world order. This idea was highlighted in a document he claimed to have found in 1972 titled “Operation Majority.”

    He postulated that this conspiracy had been in the works for a long time, with various elements like environmental pollution and disarmament being integral parts of the grand plan. He argued that these conditions were intentionally orchestrated to unify the globe against a common, invented enemy. This enemy, as he stressed, would be a technologically superior extraterrestrial race.

    The role of popular culture and mass media, according to Cooper, was crucial in making this global conspiracy a reality. He stated that the steady flow of movies and media content about flying saucers and alien invasions since the 1950s was all part of a scheme to convince the world’s population of an impending alien threat.

    Cooper even claimed that President Ronald Reagan was in on the plot. Reagan had made six speeches hinting at an external threat from outer space, which Cooper saw as a strategy to psychologically prepare the public for a staged alien invasion.

    The objective, Cooper believed, was to make the Earth seem insignificant and threatened by a superior alien force. This would, in theory, lead to the dissolution of nations and existing religions and facilitate the formation of a world government.

    The theories of Bill Cooper are undoubtedly provocative and continue to stir heated debates in the realm of conspiracy theories. Whether one regards them as groundbreaking revelations or dismisses them as the product of an overactive imagination, they serve as a reminder that the world we live in can sometimes be much stranger than fiction.

    (NASA/T. Strohmayer (GSFC)/D. Berry (Chandra X-Ray Observatory)).

    NEWLY REVEALED SPEED OF FASTEST STARS EVER OBSERVED IN THE MILKY WAY STUNS ASTRONOMERS

    An international team of astronomers reports they have succeeded in detecting the fastest stars ever observed within the Milky Way galaxy.

    The team, led by Kareem El-Badry, an astrophysicist at the Institute for Theory and Computation at the Harvard & Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, reports the detection of a white dwarf, J0927, which they observed moving through space at an incredible 5.112 million miles per hour.

    The discovery was reported in a paper published on the preprint arXiv website and is currently awaiting peer review.

    In their paper, El-Badry, who specializes in the study of binary stars in the Milky Way, and his co-authors describe their research involving stellar bodies known as hypervelocity white dwarfs, which they characterize as “runaways” from Type Ia supernovae.

    When a star collapses, the stellar body that remains is called a white dwarf, comprising a very small, dense star roughly the size of a planet. A Type Ia supernova occurs when a pair of stars–including a white dwarf–begin to orbit one another. As the white dwarf pulls the hydrogen away from its sister star, it produces the “runaway” effect that eventually results in a massive thermonuclear explosion.

    According to their paper, the team reports that by searching for potential Type Ia supernovae candidates from Gaia data, there were six new runaway stars detected, including four that El-Badry and the team believe “are most likely the surviving donors from double-degenerate binaries in which the other [white dwarf] exploded.”

    Four of the stars in the new collection are both hotter and are also much smaller than other known Type 1a supernovae, also known as “D6 stars.” Three of the stars possess primarily carbon atmospheres, while the other’s atmosphere is comprised mostly of helium.

    “A significant population of fainter low-mass runaways may still await discovery,” El-Badry and his co-authors report, adding that the birth rate of these stars remains in question since astronomers remain uncertain about the lifetimes of D6 stars, as well as the amount of light they produce.

    However, the team estimates that the birth rate of D6 stars is probably consistent with models where Type Ia supernovae produce hypervelocity runaway white dwarf stars, “but the observed population is dominated by the most massive and brightest runaways.”

    Going forward, additional models that allow astronomers to characterize the thermal evolution of D6 stars will be required, the team says, to estimate the birth rates of these stars more accurately.

    The new paper by El-Badry and his co-authors can be read online in its entirety and is currently pending peer review.

    Ex-NASA Astronaut: ‘We have Contact With Alien Cultures & Their Appearance Is Bizarre’

    On July 28, 2011, former astronaut and scientist Brian O’Leary passed away shortly after making a big statement. When the United States space agency NASA selected its sixth group of astronauts in August 1967, he was selected to be a member of that group. O’Leary had been a member of Princeton University’s physics faculty for many years. According to him, there is substantial evidence indicating that Earth is being visited by extraterrestrial beings. He claimed that advanced civilizations arrived on earth a very long time ago and that these civilizations employ technology that are founded on consciousness.

    “There is much evidence that we have been contacted by aliens, and that these civilizations have been visiting us for a very long time, their appearance may be bizarre from any traditional Western materialistic point of view. These visitors use consciousness-influencing technologies – the toroid and use co-rotating magnetic disks for their propulsion systems, which appear to be the common denominator of the UFO phenomenon,”— Dr. Brian O’Leary on Thrive Movement

    Dr. Brian O’Leary was born on January 27, 1940. Unfortunately, he was diagnosed with intestinal cancer and died of a heart attack. In August 1967, he was one of the astronauts chosen by NASA to participate in the sixth group of astronauts. The people that made up this team were commonly referred to as the scientist-astronauts. Dr. O’Leary attended Williams College and earned a bachelor of arts degree in physics in 1961. He then attended the University of California at Berkeley and earned a doctor of philosophy degree in astronomy in 1967.

    He was a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and secretary of the Planetology Section of the American Geophysical Union. In addition, he led the Asteroidal Resources Group for the NASA Ames Summer Study on Space Settlements. He was a founding board member of the International Association for New Science and the New Energy Movement’s first president. He was a fellow at the World Innovation Foundation and a Princeton University physics professor.

    After O’Leary quit NASA, Carl Sagan invited him to lecture at Cornell University in 1968. He stayed there as an astronomy research associate from 1968 to 1969 and as an assistant professor from 1969 to 1971. He looked into lunar mascons while he was at Cornell. During the 1970–1971 academic year, O’Leary worked as a visiting researcher at the California Institute of Technology. He was the deputy team leader of the Mariner 10 Venus-Mercury TV Science Team. NASA recognized the team’s efforts by presenting them with a group accomplishment award.

    Following his departure, O’Leary began to explore some of Carl’s work. He claimed that the iconic “Face” at Cydonia on Mars, which was photographed by Viking in 1975 and resembled a human face, was altered by Sagan before being released to the public: “It was very, very disappointing to me, because not only was Carl wrong, he also fudged data. He published a picture of the ‘Face’ in Parade Magazine, a popular article, saying that the ‘Face’ was just a natural formation, but he doctored the picture to make it not look like a face.”

    In May 1990, O’Leary released a paper titled “Analysis of Images of the Face on Mars and Possible Intelligent Origin,” which only further demonstrated his skepticism. It was published in the Journal of the British Interplanetary Society, Vol.43 No.5. O’Leary also went on the record and stated:

    “I began to realize, just directly from the scientific point of view, not only hearsay, that this man was colluding with NASA, that there might be more to this than before… Carl was on a committee with a number of notable people. There was a report issued by the Brookings Institution in 1961 — and that’s about when I knew Carl, during those years; the ’60s mostly was when I worked closely with him — that he and this other group said: Well, if any ETs ever showed up on the Earth, it has to be covered up. That’s the only way we’re going to be able to manage this, because if we can’t, then it would be too much of a culture shock.”

    On the 18th of September, 1994, Dr. O’Leary said during the International Forum on New Science in Fort Collins in Colorado: “A secret group within the U.S. government keeps the masses for nearly 50 years away at about UFOs and extraterrestrial contact. We have contact with extraterrestrial civilizations. This information is probably obscured by an elite group within the CIA, NSA and DIA. This small group knows well the secrets to keep. Watergate and the Iran-Contra affair are child compared to this cosmic Watergate about UFOs, aliens, mind control, genetic engineering, free energy and antigravity.”

    O’Leary suggested not only the existence of an extraterrestrial presence on Earth, but also the existence of a face on Mars. He also penned the introduction to Steven Greer’s book Hidden Truth, Forbidden Knowledge. The book is about repressed alien technologies such as free energy, anti-gravity, and extraterrestrial presence on Earth.

    THEORETICAL BREAKTHROUGH COULD FINALLY SOLVE THE MYSTERY OF INVISIBLE DARK MATTER

    A team of Canadian researchers says that the lack of clumpiness in the structure of the universe could help to shed new light on the composition of dark matter.

    A hypothetical form of matter believed to represent as much as 85% of the known universe, dark matter consists of particles that do not produce, reflect, or absorb light, making it undetectable by conventional methods astronomers use to observe electromagnetic radiation.

    Although it is essentially invisible, the existence of dark matter can be inferred from the effect it has on objects that can be seen throughout the universe. There are several theories about what forms this hypothetical substance might take, which include “cold dark matter” comprised of weakly interacting particles and “hot” forms resulting from the movement of high-energy particles whose origins go all the way back to the beginning of the universe.

    However, according to new research led by Keir Rogers with the University of Toronto’s Dunlap Institute for Astronomy and Astrophysics, dark matter may really consist of a variety of ultra-light particles known as axions, based on the lack of clumpiness in the universe.

    The team believes this insight could ultimately reveal the longstanding mystery of invisible dark matter, along with providing new insights into what is known by cosmologists as the cosmic web, by establishing new links between these phenomena.

    In the past, astronomers have noted how the distribution of matter throughout the universe is very even—perhaps surprisingly so—even at large scales. This goes against our expectations about how the matter should be distributed and could suggest that dark matter is composed of axions, a hypothetical form of very light, electrically neutral particles.

    Rogers says that future experiments which may confirm this could be “one of the most significant discoveries of this century,” adding that his team’s research not only suggests the role axions may play in the mysterious nature of dark matter but also points to “an explanation for why the universe is less clumpy than we thought.”

    Rogers adds that the apparent lack of clumpiness is “an observation that has become increasingly clear over the last decade or so and currently leaves our theory of the universe uncertain.”

    Because of their wave-like behavior at wavelengths that can be even larger than a galaxy, axions are often characterized as “fuzzy,” a feature that has a direct influence on the formation of dark matter, as well as its distribution. This would not make sense in a universe without axions, Rogers and the team says, and is suggestive of the presence of axions in the dark matter equation.

    The new research presents challenges to past cold dark matter theories involving weakly interacting subatomic particles, or WIMPs.

    “In science, it’s when ideas break down that new discoveries are made,” Rogers said in a statement, “and age-old problems are solved.”

    Analyzing Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) emanating from the earliest moments of the universe and collected by a series of large-scale surveys conducted in 2018, the CMB data was compared with data on galaxy clustering obtained from the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS), which provides information on the positions of close to one million galaxies. The galactic distribution is a corollary for the influence of gravitational forces on dark matter throughout the universe.

    Using this data to measure variances in the amount and distribution of matter in the universe, Rogers and his team were first able to confirm the lack of clumpiness, then apply computer simulations that allowed them to predict the manifestation of the earliest “relic light” emanating from the Big Bang, as well as the distribution of galaxies within the universe based on where they would be positioned in a universe with long dark matter waves.

    Rogers and the team found that the simulations were a good match for the CMB data they analyzed and appear to lend further weight to the notion that axions are indeed a component behind the lack of clumpiness observed throughout the universe. In the future, additional large-scale surveys could help to provide data that will allow researchers like Rogers and his team to conduct even more precise measurements.

    “We have the tools now that could enable us to finally understand something experimentally about the century-old mystery of dark matter,” Rogers said in a statement, adding that such insights may occur within the next two decades.

    Insights which, Rogers hopes, “could give us hints to answers about even bigger theoretical questions.”

    The team’s paper, “Ultra-light axions and the S8 tension: joint constraints from the cosmic microwave background and galaxy clustering,” was written by lead author Keir K. Rogers, and co-authors Mikhail M. Ivanov, Alex Laguë, Oliver H.E. Philcox, Giovanni Cabass, Renée Hlo¸ek, David J.E. Marsh, and Kazuyuki Akitsu, and appeared on June 14, 2023, in the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics.

    Strange sounds recorded high in Earth's atmosphere have scientists baffled

    Scientists have detected sounds high in Earth's atmosphere that can't be identified.

    A solar-powered balloon mission launched by researchers from Sandia National Laboratories carried a microphone to a region of Earth's atmosphere found around 31 miles (50 km) above the planet called the stratosphere. This region is relatively calm and free of storms, turbulence and commercial air traffic, meaning microphones in this layer of the atmosphere can eavesdrop on the sounds of our planet, both natural and human-made.

    However, the microphone in this particular study also heard strange sounds that repeat a few times per hour. Their source has yet to be identified. The sounds were recorded in the infrasound range, meaning they were at frequencies of 20 hertz (Hz) and lower, well below the range of the human ear. "There are mysterious infrasound signals that occur a few times per hour on some flights, but the source of these is completely unknown," Daniel Bowman of Sandia National Laboratories said in a statement..

    Related: 

    To gather acoustic data from the stratosphere, Bowman and the team used devices initially designed to monitor volcanoes called microbarometers that are capable of detecting detect low-frequency sounds.

    Along with the expected natural and man-made sounds, the microbarometers detected the mysterious repeating infrasound signals.

    The sensors were carried aloft by balloons that Bowman and fellow researchers built. Featuring diameters between 20 and 23 feet (6 and 7 meters), the balloons were built from common and inexpensive materials. Powered by sunlight, these deceptively simple devices were able to climb to altitudes of around 70,000 feet (13.3 miles) over Earth

    "Our balloons are basically giant plastic bags with some charcoal dust on the inside to make them dark," Bowman said. "We build them using painter's plastic from the hardware store, shipping tape, and charcoal powder from pyrotechnic supply stores. When the sun shines on the dark balloons, the air inside heats up and becomes buoyant."

    Bowman explained that this passive solar power is enough to propel the balloons from the surface of the planet to the stratosphere. After launch, the balloons were tracked using GPS, something that the team had to do because balloons can often fly for hundreds of miles and may land in difficult-to-navigate regions of the planet.

    And, as recent events have shown, scientific balloons can be mistaken for other objects, sometimes causing unintentional alarm.

    In addition to helping further investigate these mysterious stratospheric sounds, solar-powered balloons like these could be used to investigate mysteries much further from Earth. 

    Such vehicles are currently being tested to discover if they could be partnered with a Venus orbiter to observe seismic and volcanic activity through its thick atmosphere. Robotic balloons could drift through the upper atmosphere of "Earth's evil twin," high above its hellishly hot and high-pressure surface investigating its thick atmosphere and clouds of sulfuric acid.

    The team's research containing the detection of these unidentified infrasound sources will be presented by Bowman on Thursday (May 11) at the 184th Meeting of the Acoustical Society of America being held in Chicago.

    ‘Roswell Was Real’ Claimed Apollo 14 Astronaut: Elizondo Suggests 2 UFOs Crashed That Day

    Bryce Zabel, a CNN reporter has done a marvelous job in presenting the detailed Roswell incident in his personal blog. He collectively mentioned top witnesses’ statements that assure Roswell disclosure is on a fast track. The legendary incident that happened in 1947 was indeed real, according to moon-walking astronaut Edgar Mitchell. He claimed in his interviews that he had informants that had told him about the inside story of Roswell, but he never disclosed their names.

    “Make no mistake, Roswell happened. I’ve seen secret files which show the government knew about it — but decided not to tell the public,” claimed Edgar Mitchell, Ph.D., Apollo 14 Astronaut.

    In February 1971, after the successful completion of the mission, the Apollo 14 crew returned to Earth. Alan Shepard and Edgar Mitchell became the fifth and sixth astronauts to walk on the moon’s surface. While Shepard chose to live in the glory, Mitchell became the main troublemaker for many years.

    He publicly accepted the existence of aliens after being on the Moon and stuck to it until his death. He accused the US government of hiding the truth about contact with aliens. Immediately after his return, Mitchell left NASA and immersed himself in studying UFOs, ancient history, and human consciousness.

    Mitchell grew up in the small town of Artesia, a few miles from the very Roswell airbase where the crash allegedly occurred. The astronaut claimed that many of his neighbors, acquaintances, and friends worked at that base, and what he heard from them is enough for him to consider the Roswell incident a real UFO crash. Mitchell did not disclose the names of his informants, referring to the fact that they all signed a non-disclosure agreement and he did not want them to have any problems.

    Michell, who claimed he briefed the highest members of the Pentagon, said the reality is that there was an advanced civilization that could penetrate our air defenses at will and that we could not stop them in any way, shape, or form, immediately doomed the Roswell incident to become one of the greatest coverups in history.

    ET stopped Nuclear War

    According to Mitchell, he once had a confidential conversation with a Navy admiral, who secretly told him that in fact, aliens had established contact with the government back in the early 1940s. They were interested in earthly weapons, primarily the atomic bomb. At the very beginning of the Cold War between the USSR and the USA, aliens often came to Earth because they feared nuclear war and tried to influence the world elites in some way. (Source)

    Growing up in New Mexico gave him a unique insight to the Roswell area, he told the UK’s Mirror in 2015.

    “White Sands was a testing ground for atomic weapons – and that’s what the extraterrestrials were interested in… They wanted to know about our military capabilities. My own experience talking to people has made it clear the ETs had been attempting to keep us from going to war and help create peace on Earth.”

    According to a 2015 story, Apollo 14 astronaut said: “My own experience talking to people has made it clear the ETs had been attempting to keep us from going to war and help create peace on Earth.”

    However, he clarified in his interview with Observer that he did not make those statements but at the same time, he somewhat agreed with those words. He said: “I don’t remember speaking to them personally. I don’t know where they got that information. I didn’t make those statements. Somebody has added to my words. Those weren’t my exact words but I don’t necessarily disagree with those statements.”

    However, the 2016 Wikileak emails say Mitchell was worried about space weaponization. Despite the fact that aliens might be violent as shown in various sci-fi, the notable astronaut called them nonviolent in his email. In January 2015, he sent an email to Podesta, asking him to have an urgent meeting to discuss Disclosure and Zero Point Energy (ZPE). He was concerned about the peace in space.

    Mitchell wrote: “My Catholic colleague Terri Mansfield will be there too, to bring us up to date on the Vatican’s awareness of ETI. Another colleague is working on a new Space Treaty, citing involvement with Russia and China. However, with Russia’s extreme interference in Ukraine, I believe we must pursue another route for peace in space and ZPE on Earth.”

    Mitchell emailed Podesta again on September 18, 2015. He wrote: “Because the War in Space race is heating up, I felt you should be aware of several factors as you and I schedule our Skype talk. Remember, our nonviolent ETI from the contiguous universe are helping us bring zero point energy to Earth. They will not tolerate any forms of military violence on Earth or in space.”

    Why Believe the Roswell Crash?

    Bryce Zabel writes: “That storyline has hundreds of witnesses testifying to roughly the same fact trail. Some were first-hand witnesses to debris and even the recovery of bodies, and several accounts came from death bed confessions. Many more witnesses were family members who learned of the secret their fathers and husbands had kept inside them for decades. There were many dozens who attested to extremely tight security and transportation of material in the aftermath of what crashed at Roswell.”

    Moreover, the hype of Roswell stories has increased. The New York Times started covering this issue in the summer of 2020 and is continuing its investigation into crash wreckage. Besides, the former head of the AATIP Luis Elizondo gave his candid take on the 1947 Roswell crash in New Mexico and more in an interview with the Roswell Daily Record.

    Here are some excerpts courtesy of the Roswell Daily Record:

    Elizondo: “I’ll share with you… some of the observations that were made by some people. Before I was part of AATIP, I had no idea about Roswell, other than that there was sort of some alleged crash at some point and some farmer found debris — but during my time with AATIP, there was some very interesting anecdotal information that suggests there wasn’t just one crash, there may have been two crashes, and that somehow it may have been related to some sort of testing that was being done at the time at White Sands, and that material was recovered.

    And that material that was recovered, samples of that material found their way into the hands of private citizens, some of them, but that the … allegedly the larger sections of debris were all recovered by the U.S. Government.”

    During the interview, Elizondo said that while he headed the AATIP, his job was to concentrate on current UAP incidents, however, he added that he had conversations with so-called “graybeards” at the Pentagon who had been involved with UAPs since Project Blue Book. It was from these individuals that Elizondo learned what probably occurred at Roswell in 1947.

    Elizondo: ”These individuals were convinced that the events in New Mexico were not fiction. In fact that it was a, very much a real event and that some very exotic material was recovered… And then there was a subsequent effort to try to be very dismissive about what occurred in New Mexico. But again, I will share with you that it was, from my understanding, it wasn’t one, it was two crashes, and it may have been related to some sort of nuclear-type testing of technology that we were doing, atomic and/or nuclear technology at Los Alamos at the time.”

    A SUSTAINABLE LUNAR OUTPOST COULD BECOME A REALITY WITH HELP FROM THIS COMPANY

    It has been a dream for many over the centuries to visit the Moon. The space race in the 1960s illustrated just how important that dream was to countries all around the world, but following the successful manned Moon missions of that era, many have wondered if Americans will ever return.

    Now, NASA and other space agencies are working on technology to send people back to the Moon to learn more about its origins, and companies like AI SpaceFactory are even working on the prospect of helping make a continuous human presence on the Moon a reality. In a recent announcement, the company revealed its designs for LINA, a lunar outpost concept that would be developed in collaboration with NASA’s Kennedy Space Center (KSC). 

    BACKGROUND: THE HISTORY OF AI SPACEFACTORY

    AI SpaceFactory may not be a household name as far as the new space race of the 21st century goes, but they are hard at work on the development of future space technology. Their primary goal is to build construction tools for improved space exploration with the use of sustainable materials.

    Founded in 2017, the company mainly focuses on the future of human habitation, and the company has made a name for itself by winning $500,000 from NASA’s 3D Printed Habitat Challenge. The printed habitat was created from recycled materials and was able to withstand the extreme environments that NASA tested on it. Now, the company hopes to use a similar technology to build its lunar outpost. 

    ANALYSIS: PRINTING THE LUNAR OUTPOST

    The LINA lunar outpost project came from NASA’s 2020 Announcement of Collaboration Opportunity (ACO) Selections, of which AI SpaceFactory was a collaborator. Using the collaboration, AI SpaceFactory was able to change the composition of its 3D printed material, which originally was made from Martian soil types to now being created using a more lunar soil-type base. The 3D-printed habitat was tested in a special vacuum chamber at NASA, which simulates the environment on the Moon. Tests revealed that the material can be tweaked to be even more sustainable too, and AI SpaceFactory hopes to use it to print its LINA complex. 

    The complex will be printed by robots on the Moon’s south pole near the Shackleton crater. There, LINA can take advantage of almost constant sunlight for solar power arrays, and nearby frozen water can be harvested easily. The building’s architecture makes it possible to have 2.7-meter-thick walls, withstanding radiation, heat, meteors, and more. As AI SpaceFactory CEO David Malott explained, “Our Mars habitat prototype MARSHA proved that 3D printing with a polymer composite was a strong solution for habitation off-world. Developing LINA and printing in an environment that is void of atmospheric pressures or weather systems advances that technology through a new context, with new and more precise variables.”

    OUTLOOK: LUNAR LIVING 

    The printed model of LINA will reside at one of KSC’s laboratories called the Swamp Works, and will be fitted with other infrastructure created by NASA. Not only does this next-level lunar habitat provide a cost-effective and easy way to construct buildings off-planet, but it also places sustainability as one of its main objectives. Creating these habitats may not only shift the current space-exploration industry, but may also provide a huge boost in terms of space tourism, especially if our aspirations to build lunar outposts ever extend beyond science, and into the hotel industry.

    Methuselah: The oldest star in the universe

    Image

    The oldest star in the universe is HD140283 — or Methuselah as it's commonly known. This Digitized Sky Survey image shows Methuselah star, located 190.1 light-years away. Astronomers refined the star's age to about 14.3 billion years (which is older than the universe), plus or minus 800 million years. Image released March 7, 2013.

    In 2000, scientists looked to date what they thought was the oldest star in the universe. They made observations via the European Space Agency's (ESA) Hipparcos satellite and estimated that HD140283 — or Methuselah as it's commonly known — was a staggering 16 billion years old.

    Such a figure was rather baffling. After all, the age of the universe — determined from observations of the cosmic microwave background — is 13.8 billion years old, so how can a star be older than the universe?

    "It was a serious discrepancy," says astronomer Howard Bond of Pennsylvania State University. So with that in mind, Bond and his colleagues set out to discover the truth and test the accuracy of the figure. Their conclusions were just as mind-blowing.

    Astronomers began observing Methuselah — named in reference to a biblical patriarch who is said to have died aged 969, making him the longest-lived of all the figures in the Bible — more than 100 years ago. The curious star is located some 190 light-years away from Earth in the constellation Libra and it rapidly journeys across the sky at 800,000 mph (1.3 million kilometers per hour). 

    FAST FACTS:
    • Methuselah covers the width of the moon in the night sky every 1,500 years.
    • You can't see Methuselah with the naked eye. It can only be seen using a telescope 
    • It contains just 1/250th of the iron content of our sun 

    It was clear that the star was old. The metal-poor subgiant is predominantly made of hydrogen and helium and contains very little iron. Such composition meant the star must have come into being when helium and hydrogen dominated the universe and before iron became commonplace (the heavier elements only appeared when massive stars created them in their cores) 

    But could Methuselah really be more than two billion years older than its environment? Surely that is just not possible. Either the star was older than the universe or the universe was not as "young" as scientists thought it to be. Or maybe the dating was simply all wrong. What was it to be?

    INVESTIGATING THE AGE OF METHUSELAH

     A mystery of this magnitude could not be ignored so Bond and his colleagues attempted to unearth the truth by pouring over 11 sets of observations that had been recorded between 2003 and 2011. 

    These observations had been made by the Fine Guidance Sensors of the Hubble Space Telescope, which noted the positions, distances and energy output of stars. In acquiring parallax, spectroscopy and photometry measurements, the scientists could determine a better sense of age.

    "One of the uncertainties with the age of HD 140283 was the precise distance of the star," Bond said. "It was important to get this right because we can better determine its luminosity and, from that, its age — the brighter the intrinsic luminosity, the younger the star. 

    "We were looking for the parallax effect, which meant we were viewing the star six months apart to look for the shift in its position due to the orbital motion of the Earth, which tells us the distance."

    Bond adds that there were also uncertainties in the theoretical modeling of the stars, such as the exact rates of nuclear reactions in the core and the importance of elements diffusing downwards in the outer layers. So they worked on the idea that leftover helium diffuses deeper into the core, leaving less hydrogen to burn via nuclear fusion. With fuel used faster, the age is lowered.

    "Another factor that was important was, of all things, the amount of oxygen in the star," Bond said. HD 140283 had a higher than predicted oxygen-to-iron ratio and, since oxygen was not abundant in the universe for a few million years, it pointed again to a lower age for the star. 

    As a result of all of this work, Bond and his collaborators estimated HD 140283's age to be 14.46 billion years. It was a significant reduction on the 16 billion previously claimed but it was still more than the age of the universe itself.

    In that sense, it didn't clear up the mystery and, on the face of it, simply ensured Methuselah remained a curiosity. But the scientists posed a residual uncertainty of 800 million years, which Bond said made the star's age compatible with the age of the universe. It was a major breakthrough. 

    Related:

    "Like all measured estimates, it is subject to both random and systematic error," said physicist Robert Matthews of Aston University in Birmingham, UK, who was not involved in the study. "The overlap in the error bars gives some indication of the probability of a clash with cosmological age determinations" 

    "In other words, the best-supported age of the star conflicts with that for the derived age of the universe [as determined by the cosmic microwave background], and the conflict can only be resolved by pushing the error bars to their extreme limits."

    Further refinements saw the age of HD 140283 fall a bit more. A 2014 follow-up study, for instance, updated the star's age to 14.27 billion years. "Again, if one includes all sources of uncertainty — both in the observational measurements and the theoretical modeling — the error is about 700 or 800 million years, so there is no conflict because 13.8 billion years lies within the star's error bar," Bond said.

    What's more, in May 2021, another group of astronomers revised the best estimates for the age and mass of Methuselah and, having modeled how stars change over time, they found its age to be 12 billion years. It still makes HD 140283 extremely old (the sun, by comparison, is only a kid at 4.6 billion years old) but it puts the age of the star well and truly within the age of the universe. Or does it? 

    INVESTIGATING THE AGE OF THE UNIVERSE

    On the one hand, Bond says the efforts to date Methuselah is "an amazing scientific achievement which provides very strong evidence for the Big Bang picture of the universe". By showing similarities between the age of the universe and that of this old nearby star, he says the problem with the age of the oldest stars is far less severe than it was in the 1990s when the stellar ages were approaching 18 billion years or, in one case, 20 billion years. "With the uncertainties of the determinations, the ages are now agreeing," Bond said.

    Yet, on the other hand, Matthews believes the problem has not yet been resolved. Astronomers at an international conference of top cosmologists at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics in Santa Barbara, California, in July 2019 were puzzled over studies that suggested different ages for the universe. They were looking at measurements of galaxies that are relatively nearby which suggest the universe is younger by hundreds of millions of years compared to the age determined by the cosmic microwave background.

    Related:

    Far from being 13.8 billion years old, as estimated by the European Planck space telescope's detailed measurements of cosmic radiation in 2013, the universe may be as young as 11.4 billion years. If that is, indeed, the case, then Methuselah is one again older than the universe. The plot, indeed, thickens, but how accurate are these re-estimates proving to be?

    One of those behind the studies to date the universe is Nobel laureate Adam Riess of the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore, Maryland.

    The conclusions are based on the idea of an expanding universe, as shown in 1929 by Edwin Hubble. This is fundamental to the Big Bang — the understanding that there was once a state of hot denseness that exploded out, stretching space. It indicates a starting point that should be measurable, but fresh findings are suggesting that the expansion rate is around 10% higher than the one suggested by Planck.

    Indeed, the Planck team determined that the expansion rate was 67.4 km per second per megaparsec, but more recent measurements taken of the expansion rate of the universe point to values of 73 or 74. 

    That means there is a difference between the measurement of how fast the universe is expanding today and the predictions of how fast it should be expanding based on the physics of the early universe, Riess said. It's leading to a reassessment of accepted theories while also showing there is still much to learn about dark matter and dark energy, which are thought to be behind this conundrum.

    Related: 

    A higher value for the Hubble Constant indicates a shorter age for the universe. A constant of 67.74 km per second per megaparsec would lead to an age of 13.8 billion years, whereas one of 73, or even as high as 77 as some studies have shown, would indicate a universe age no greater than 12.7 billion years. 

    It's a mismatch that suggests, as stated, that HD 140283 could still be older than the universe. It has also since been superseded by a 2019 study published in the journal Science that proposed a Hubble Constant of 82.4 — suggesting that the universe's age is only 11.4 billion years. Astronomers are hoping the James Webb Space Telescope could shed light on this particular mystery.

    Matthews believes the answers lie in greater cosmological refinement. "I suspect that the observational cosmologists have missed something that creates this paradox, rather than the stellar astrophysicists," he said, pointing to the measurements of the stars being perhaps more accurate. 

    "That's not because the cosmologists are in any way sloppier, but because the age determination of the universe is subject to more and arguably trickier observational and theoretical uncertainties than that of stars."

    WHY DOES THE UNIVERSE APPEAR YOUNGER THAN METHUSELAH?

    But what could be making the universe potentially appear younger than this particular star? 

    "There are two options, and the history of science suggests that in such cases the reality is a mix of both," Matthews said. "In this case that would be sources of observational error that haven't been fully understood, plus some gaps in the theory of the dynamics of the universe, such as the strength of dark energy, which has been the prime driver of the cosmic expansion for many billions of years now."

    Related: 

    He suggests the possibility that the current "age paradox" reflects time variation in dark energy, and thus a change in the rate of acceleration — a possibility theorists have found might be compatible with ideas about the fundamental nature of gravity, such as the so-called causal set theory. New research into gravitational waves could help to resolve the paradox, Matthews said.

    To do this, scientists would look at the ripples in the fabric of space and time created by pairs of dead stars, rather than relying on the cosmic microwave background or the monitoring of nearby objects such as Cepheid variables and supernovae to measure the Hubble Constant — the former resulting in the speed of 67 km per second per megaparsec and the latter in 73.

    Trouble is, measuring gravitational waves is no easy task, given they were only directly detected for the first time in 2015. But according to Stephen Feeney, an astrophysicist at the Flatiron Institute in New York, a breakthrough could be made over the next decade. The idea is to collect data from collisions between pairs of neutron stars using the visible light these events emit to figure out the speed they are moving relative to Earth. It also entails analyzing the resulting gravitational waves for an idea of distance — both of which can combine to give a measurement of the Hubble Constant that should be the most accurate yet.

    The mystery of the age of HD 140283 is leading to something bigger and more scientifically complex, altering the understanding of how the universe works. 

    "The most likely explanations for the paradox are some overlooked observational effect and/or something big missing from our understanding of the dynamics of the cosmic expansion," Matthews said. Precisely what that "something" is, is sure to keep astronomers challenged for some time.

    The Curious Case of David Grusch: An Analysis of Truth and Disinformation

    david grusch body language

    In the curious world of claims and counter-claims, where truth and falsehood often blur, the case of David Grusch presents a fascinating exploration. Grusch, a controversial figure involved in alleged whistleblower complaints, has been the subject of intense scrutiny and debate. The in-depth behavioral analysis conducted by a panel of experts provides a compelling look at the potential indications of disinformation embedded in his dialogue.

    David Grusch has been known for making assertions about alien encounters and unidentified flying objects (UFOs), claims that, understandably, are met with both intrigue and skepticism. The confluence of truth, falsehood, and interpretation in this arena is a maze difficult to navigate, making this an interesting case study for those who venture into the realms of truth-seeking.

    When scrutinizing Grusch’s statements, the panel noted that his demeanor, body language, and reactions potentially hinted at disinformation. His narrative, laced with unusual tonality, was punctuated with repetitive phrases and an immediate delivery of responses. This, coupled with a lack of visible anger about issues he was presumably passionate about, set off alarm bells for the panel.

    In one notable example, Grusch’s discussion about Jaffa Cakes, a popular snack in the UK, became a metaphor for the panel’s assertion about his potential conflation of truth and falsehood. Grusch’s detailed explanation of the tax differences between cakes and biscuits, while entertaining, was viewed by the panel as an obfuscation technique. It was seen as an effort to distract from the core issues at hand and potentially create confusion, a classic technique often used in disinformation campaigns.

    In the realm of the specific claims, Grusch’s assertion that he feared retaliation was considered credible by the Inspector General. However, the panel suggested that Grusch conflated this credibility with the legitimacy of his claims about UFOs, leading to potential misinterpretation. This tendency to conflate unrelated issues was seen as another hallmark of disinformation, further amplifying the panel’s concerns.

    The panel went as far as to speculate whether Grusch was involved in a larger, orchestrated plan, possibly even initiated by another entity. Such speculation was fueled by perceived incongruencies in Grusch’s behavior and statements, the unusual amount of UFO-related information he claimed to have received in a short amount of time, and his apparent eagerness to be part of something bigger.

    Of course, it’s important to remember that these interpretations, while based on expert analysis, remain speculative. They neither confirm nor deny Grusch’s claims outright. However, they highlight the complexity involved in discerning truth amidst potential disinformation. This analysis underscores the importance of critical thinking, the need for nuanced interpretation, and the vigilance required when navigating complex narratives.

    Whether Grusch’s narrative is an intricate tapestry of truth, a masterstroke of disinformation, or somewhere in between, remains open to interpretation. The Grusch saga serves as a reminder of the intrigue, complexity, and mystery that often shroud the realms of truth and falsehood, presenting an endless source of fascination for those drawn to such enigmas.

    David Grusch higher-dimensional beings

    Ex-Pentagon Official & Jacques Vallée Suggest Higher-Dimensional Beings Crossing Into Our World

    In a recent interview with journalist Ross Coulthart on NewsNation, Pentagon UFO whistleblower David Grusch dropped bombshell statements on UFO phenomena or UAPs, claiming that the United States and other world governments have retrieved intact and partially intact crafts of Non-Human Intelligence (NHI). The origin and reason behind these crashes is still unknown, but Grusch postulated that certain NHI, commonly associated with UFO sightings, might originate from higher-dimensional planes of existence.

    Grusch made a sensational claim by stating that in 1945, the United States intercepted a mysterious craft that was initially recovered by Mussolini’s forces in Italy back in 1933. As evidence of this extraordinary event, Grusch presented a handwritten Italian memo containing small drawings at the bottom. What made this revelation even more intriguing was the implication of the Vatican’s involvement, suggesting the religious institution was not only aware of the existence of NHI but also actively participated in suppressing this information.

    Grusch made significant assertions regarding the NHI, stating that these entities might be extraterrestrial or interdimensional, or possibly both. He described sightings and recoveries of multiple operational crafts of various sizes, including one as large as a football field. Alarmingly, he revealed the recovery of NHI bodies and hinted at potential formal agreements between the U.S. government and some NHI factions.

    Grusch is not alone in assuming that UFOs are perhaps interdimensional or higher-dimensional entities and this theory has been well-supported by others. The extraterrestrial hypothesis has remained the primary explanation for UFOs by many experts. However, there are many UFOlogists that have abandoned it in favor of the interdimensional hypothesis. Paranormal researcher Brad Steiger wrote: “We are dealing with a multidimensional paraphysical phenomenon that is largely indigenous to planet Earth.”

    Astronomer and UFO researcher Jacques Vallée states that UFOs and related events of a paranormal nature involve visitations from other “realities” or “dimensions.” The idea proposes that these alternate realities exist separately yet parallel to our own. In 1975’s The Edge of Reality, Vallée and Hynek considered the possibility of what they call “interlocking universes.”

    Hynek speculated that there might exist alternate universes with different quantum rules or vibration rates. He suggested that our own space-time continuum could be a mere slice of a universe with many more dimensions. Drawing an analogy, he compared it to the challenge of convincing an aborigine that TV pictures were passing through the room at that very moment. Similarly, he proposed that interlocking universes could potentially exist right here alongside ours, challenging the notion of them being located elsewhere.

    In Vallée’s book “Passport to Magonia: On UFOs, Folklore, and Parallel Worlds,” published in 1969, he put forth the idea of a parallel universe coexisting with our own. He reiterated this concept in subsequent writings, outlining his objections to the extraterrestrial origin hypothesis of unidentified flying objects (UFOs). These objections included the abundance of unexplained close encounters exceeding the requirements for a physical survey of Earth, the unlikely humanoid body structure of alleged “aliens” for interstellar travel, the contradicting behavior reported in abduction accounts, the historical evidence of UFO phenomena throughout recorded human history, and the suggestive abilities of UFOs to manipulate space and time, hinting at alternative possibilities.

    A study published on ResearchGate proposes the existence of an interdimensional membrane acting as a barrier between dimensions, with unstable entrances in the form of interdimensional tunnels. These tunnels would unpredictably wander between hyper-surfaces, and anyone caught in their entrance could potentially travel to dimensions beyond the fourth, as permitted by the laws of physics within our four-dimensional universe. Singularities and horizons would be absent in these tunnels, allowing for exploration of higher-dimensional realms.

    One of the first reports suggesting UFOs are interdimensional comes from the FBI vault. Memo 6751 acknowledges the existence of an alien presence. Former FBI officer John DeSouza, the author of “The Extra-Dimensionals: True Tales and Concepts of Alien Visitors,” points to the memorandum as a significant document in UFOlogy.

    According to the report, among other species, we are visited by creatures not only from other planets but from other dimensions as well. In particular, they are from the etheric plane coexisting with our physical Universe, materialized entities that appeared as translucent giants.

    The information presented in the memo aligns with the Interdimensional Hypothesis, which suggests that UFOs originate from other dimensions rather than extraterrestrial locations. The memo mentions several characteristics that support this idea. The claim that attacking a UFO would likely result in the destruction of the attacking plane indicates advanced defensive capabilities beyond our understanding.

    The mention of different types of occupants or remote control capabilities implies the presence of beings or entities from other dimensions. Reports of UFOs using radiant energy or rays to disintegrate attacking ships suggest highly advanced technology.

    The ability of UFOs to disappear without leaving any trace indicates their potential to traverse dimensions or manipulate visibility. While UFOs may not be reachable by conventional radio, their potential detectability through radar hints at unconventional communication systems. These elements, dating back to the Roswell incident in 1947, contribute to the foundation of the Interdimensional Hypothesis for the origins of UFOs.

    Then Why Do UFOs Crash?

    Jacques Vallee’s perspective on UFO crashes is quite different from the conventional belief that they are accidental events. He suggests that these crashes are intentional occurrences with a specific purpose orchestrated by the mysterious visitors. (Source)

    Vallee first highlights the weak and contradictory nature of the evidence surrounding UFO crashes. He claims that many alleged crash sites have not been properly investigated or verified by independent experts. Furthermore, he questions the credibility of witnesses and whistleblowers who claim to have encountered alien bodies or debris, suggesting that they may be unreliable or have ulterior motives.

    In addition, Vallee argues that the physical characteristics of the supposed alien craft and materials defy the laws of physics and engineering. Rather than attributing these anomalies to our lack of understanding, he proposes that they result from a deliberate manipulation of human perception by the UFO intelligence.

    According to Vallee, the purpose of the UFO crashes is not direct communication with humanity but rather the creation of a complex and enigmatic scenario that challenges our assumptions and beliefs about reality. He suggests that these crashes serve as catalysts, evoking various reactions from different groups of people, such as curiosity, fear, awe, skepticism, denial, or fascination. Vallee views these reactions as part of an ongoing experiment conducted by the UFO intelligence on human consciousness and culture, potentially holding profound implications for our future evolution.

    Vallee acknowledges that he does not know the ultimate goal or motive of the UFO intelligence. However, he asserts that it is neither hostile nor benevolent but rather indifferent to our welfare. He cautions against interpreting the UFO phenomenon solely based on our own expectations or desires and urges maintaining an open-minded and critical approach.

    Ultimately, Vallee advocates for the development of a new scientific paradigm that can encompass the multidimensional nature of reality and accommodate the possibility of other forms of intelligence and consciousness beyond our own.

    Experiencing Another Dimension

    On Jesse Michels’ show, Vallee discusses a very strange UFO case that includes experiencing another dimension by the witness. Valle said: “There was one case in San Jose.  woman had seen something over her house. It was a big disc, and I say, ‘How big was it?’ And she says, ‘Well, it was about the same size as her house. It was, you know, just like that.’ Then I say, ‘Well, when you went inside, you said, uh, you know, there was this being, and the being took you on a staircase.’ I say, ‘Where did the staircase go?’ Well, the staircase went up the side of this big round room. I say, ‘How would you compare it?’ Well, like a movie house, you know, like an M5 theater. I said, ‘That’s bigger than your house.'”

    A similar incident was also shared by an American attorney Daniel Sheehan soon after Grusch’s interview. Daily Mail reported: “A crashed UFO recovered by the US military ‘distorted space-time’ and was ‘bigger on the inside’, claims a top attorney involved in bringing UFO whistleblowers to Congress.”

    The newspaper further writes, “Daniel Sheehan says he was told the mind-boggling tale by a whistleblower who allegedly took part in an illegally-undisclosed program retrieving crashed non-human spacecraft – and who has now briefed Senate Intelligence Committee staff.”

    Sheehan described an account told to him by an insider of a crash retrieval program. According to Sheehan’s account, the recovery involved a 30-foot saucer partially embedded in the earth. When attempts were made to pull it out using a bulldozer, the saucer detached in a pie slice-like shape, revealing its construction.

    Sheehan mentioned that a person entered the saucer, and inside, it was described as being as large as a football stadium, causing disorientation and nausea. He also stated that there were time and space distortions associated with the craft. However, Sheehan did not provide specific details such as the location or date of the incident, nor did he offer any evidence to support the claims.

    It is important to note that the lack of specific information, documentation, and photographs has led skeptics to question the credibility of such stories about off-world UFOs stored by secret government programs. However, some military intelligence officials have voiced support for Sheehan’s claims, pointing out that the insider who came forward with the information has put themselves at risk by submitting their claims to the Department of Defense and Intelligence Community Inspector Generals under penalty of perjury.

    Ex-CIA Agent Deathbed Confession On UFOs

    Ex-CIA Agent Deathbed Confession On UFOs: Visited Area-51 & Saw Living Aliens

    There is a long list of officials who have spent a long time in the US defense department, claiming to have seen the alleged crashed UFOs and non-human beings that supposedly had been the passengers of those crafts. In this list comes a deathbed confession of a man claimed to be a former CIA officer. He said to have seen living extraterrestrials and alien spacecraft secretly stored in the mysterious Area-51 US Air Force base.

    “The Anonymous Interview” is a film by award-winning director Jeremy Corbell. This film investigates a very contentious witness account from an alleged ex-CIA agent who claims to have been exposed to extraterrestrial realities and technologies throughout his employment in the military and intelligence. This “deathbed confession” was presented as the witness testimony at the Citizens Hearing on Disclosure held at the National Press Club in Washington, DC in 2013. It sparked a lively discussion among those involved in the intelligence and UFO sectors.

    The 77-years old alleged former CIA went on camera (check the video at the bottom) and testified to the renowned UFO researcher Richard Dolan. The man was scared of disclosing his real name so in the interview, he is dubbed “The Anonymous.” He even never used his actual name during his service time in the CIA. During the interview, the man told Dolan that he had not much time left as he was facing kidney failure issues.

    His story was first introduced by investigative journalist Linda Moulton Howe on June 6, 1998, on the radio show Coast to Coast AM under the pseudonym “AGENT KEWPER.” He was drafted into the US military and sent to the signal training center in the eastern United States. Later, he attained the position of a cryptographer in the US Air Force. (Source)

    He worked for the CIA from 1957 to 1960 and described his work inside a CIA group based in a southeastern military base where they analyzed film, photographs, and other physical evidence collected from eyewitnesses of extraterrestrial craft and beings. Linda interviewed “Kewper” on eleven hours of audiotape in the summer of 1998 before government agents warned him not to follow through with further interviews. She shared one portion of the audio, which concerned the 1959 briefing of President Eisenhower and Vice President Nixon about UFOs, human abductions, and animal mutilations, which Eisenhower indicated he was already familiar with.

    In 2013, Kewper came out of hiding, believing the end was close, and was once more prepared to share his astonishing story. That time, Richard Dolan, a UFO historian, conducted the interview with the witness and later gave his consent for his picture and remarks to be used at the Citizen Hearing on Disclosure in Washington, D.C.

    He told Dolan that while he was in the military, he was offered to work for the CIA on the secret program of which he got the top-secret security clearance. Meanwhile, Project Blue Book was handling most of the UFO cases but Kewper said it was “partially fraud.” “So, you’re saying some of the Blue Book cases were completely fictitious,” Dolan asked, and Kewper replied “Yes.” The case assigned to him came from Fort Belvoir, but it was neither from the Pentagon nor the CIA.

    His most startling claim was that he had been escorted into Area 51 to view a variety of UFOs that the US military reportedly discovered. These allegedly include a flying saucer that crashed and landed in July 1947 in Roswell, New Mexico.

    Deathbed Confession by former CIA agent on UFOs

    Deathbed Confession by former CIA agent dubbed “Anonymous” on UFOs.

    But it is at the center of many alien conspiracy theories which allege that the recovered alien craft has visited Earth. There were alien craft, including the Roswell UFO and live aliens. The conspiracy theories were compounded by the fact that the US Government did not acknowledge the base existed until 2013. Other theories suggest that aliens from the crashed UFOs are secretly kept there as well.

    The man told Dolan that President Dwight Eisenhower had warned of a threat of Earth being invaded, so he and his superior at the CIA were allowed inside Area-51 to report back to the president. He claimed the two men were also taken to the alleged S-4 facility southwest of Area-51, where they observed “live extraterrestrials.”

    “It took us 13 or 15 miles south to s4 and like different garage door openings okay and in these garage door openings they had like different saucer crafts. The very first one had Roswell craft and it was kind of crashed up but apparently, every alien that was in a died except for a couple… The Roswell craft was really strange because it looked like really heavy aluminum foil. We could walk next to it and the whole thing probably weighed 150-300 pounds.”

    “Could they tell what the source of power was of this craft?” asked Dolan. “Yeah, it was like a reverse’s gravitational thing of some kind. In fact, I got the mathematical code for reversing gravity in a three-by-five card. I guess they are different types of grays and so on.”

    “How did you see that evidence?” – “At s4 we viewed the autopsy film and then the colonel said what we’ve got in here is we’re interviewing a grey alien. I thought we had no idea we were going to see the real thing all we saw was the film. What did this gray alien look like could you describe them a little bit? It didn’t look human as far as the skin tone and basically the shape of it and the size how was its head size compared with a normal human. For example, the brain was kind of a little bit bigger and the nose was very, very small and the ears were just like holes and the mouth was very small.”

    In mid-1947, a United States Air Force balloon crashed at a ranch near Roswell, New Mexico. Following the wide initial interest in the crashed “flying disc,” the US military stated that it was merely a conventional weather balloon. Major Jesse Marcel from the Roswell Army Air Field found the debris 75 miles northwest of Roswell, NM, in June 1947. The debris has been identified as that of a radar target. The Air Force released a report debunking reports of a UFO crash.

    Author and UFO researcher Peter Robbins said of the account: “In my opinion, if it can be confirmed by any relevant supporting documentation, this moving and fascinating account does qualify as an authentic ‘death bed’ testimony from an individual who convincingly claims to have been a CIA officer deeply involved in the matter or crashed and/or recovered craft, and at one time a liaison between the agency and the President (Truman).”

    Agent Kewper’s identity revealed

    According to research done by author Richard Geldreich, Agent Kewper Stein was named (when he died) Oscar Wayne Wolff. He was born September 17, 1935 in Park Rapids, MN. He passed away on March 18, 2015 in Menahga, MN at the Green Pine Acres Nursing Home. (Source)

    Stephen Hawking's most famous prediction could mean that everything in the universe is doomed to evaporate, new study says

    Stephen Hawking's most famous theory about black holes has just been given a sinister update — one that proclaims that everything in the universe is doomed to evaporate.

    In 1974, Hawking proposed that black holes eventually evaporate by losing what's now known as Hawking radiation — a gradual draining of energy in the form of light particles that spring up around black holes' immensely powerful gravitational fields. Now, a new update to the theory has suggested that Hawking radiation isn't just created by stealing energy from black holes, but from all objects with enough mass.

    If the theory is true, it means that everything in the universe will eventually disappear, its energy slowly bled from it in the form of light. 

    Related: 

    "That means that objects without an event horizon [the gravitational point of no return beyond which nothing, not even light, can escape a black hole], such as the remnants of dead stars and other large objects in the universe, also have this sort of radiation," lead author Heino Falcke, a professor of astrophysics at Radboud University in the Netherlands, said in a statement. "And, after a very long period, that would lead to everything in the universe eventually evaporating, just like black holes. This changes not only our understanding of Hawking radiation but also our view of the universe and its future."

    The researchers published their findings June 2 in the journal Physical Review Letters.

    Space-time monsters

    According to quantum field theory, there is no such thing as an empty vacuum. Space is instead teeming with tiny vibrations that, if imbued with enough energy, randomly burst into virtual particles, producing very-low-energy packets of light, or photons.

    In a landmark paper published in 1974, Hawking famously predicted that the extreme gravitational force felt at the mouths of black holes — their event horizons — would summon photons into existence in this way. Gravity, according to Einstein's theory of general relativity, distorts space-time, so that quantum fields get more warped the closer they get to the immense gravitational tug of a black hole's singularity.

    Because of the uncertainty and weirdness of quantum mechanics, Hawking said this warping creates uneven pockets of differently moving time and subsequent spikes of energy across the field. These energy mismatches make photons appear in the contorted space around black holes, siphoning energy from the black hole's field so they can burst into existence. If the particles then escape the black hole, this energy theft led Hawking to conclude that — over a vast timescale much longer than the current age of the universe — black holes would eventually lose all of their energy and disappear completely.

    But if a gravitational field is all that's needed to produce quantum fluctuations and photons, what's stopping any object with a space-time warping mass from creating Hawking radiation? Does Hawking radiation need the special condition of a black hole's event horizon, or can it be produced anywhere in space? To probe these questions, the authors of the new study analyzed Hawking radiation through the lens of a long-predicted process called the Schwinger effect, in which matter can theoretically be generated from the powerful distortions caused by an electromagnetic field.

    Sure enough, by applying the framework of the Schwinger effect to Hawking's theory, the theoretical physicists produced a mathematical model that reproduced Hawking radiation in spaces experiencing a range of gravitational field strengths. According to their new theory, an event horizon isn't necessary for energy to slowly leak from a massive object in the form of light; the object's gravitational field is good enough on its own.

    "We show that far beyond a black hole the curvature of space-time plays a big role in creating radiation," second author Walter van Suijlekom, a professor of mathematics at Radboud University, said in the statement. "The particles are already separated there [beyond the black hole] by the tidal forces of the gravitational field."

    What the researchers' theory means in reality isn't clear. Possibly, as the matter that makes up stars, neutron stars, and planets ages, it will eventually undergo an energy transition into a completely new ultralow energy state. This might be enough to eventually collapse all matter into black holes, which could continue to slowly drip out light until they too disappear without a trace.

    Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on any misgivings you may have about evaporating), all of this is just speculation awaiting confirmation. To figure out if it's a true prediction of our universe's eventual fate, physicists will need to spot some Hawking radiation being produced around gravitationally dense objects — both around black holes and planets, stars, or neutron stars. If everything is destined to disappear in a flash of cool light, there should be plenty of places to look.

    Why have aliens never visited Earth? Scientists have a disturbing answer

    Why has humanity never been visited by aliens (that we know of)? The question has confounded scientists for decades, but two researchers have come up with a possible — and disturbing — explanation: Advanced civilizations could be doomed to either stagnate or die before they get the chance.

    The new hypothesis suggests that, as space-faring civilizations grow in scale and technological development, they eventually reach a crisis point where innovation no longer keeps up with the demand for energy. What comes next is collapse. The only alternative path is to reject a model of "unyielding growth" in favor of maintaining equilibrium, but at the cost of a civilization's ability to expand across the stars, the researchers said.

    The argument, published on May 4 in the journal Royal Society Open Science, attempts to find a resolution to the Fermi Paradox. Taking its name from the casual lunchtime musings of Nobel Prize-winning physicist Enrico Fermi, the paradox draws attention to the contradiction between the immense scope and age of the universe — two things that suggest the universe should be teeming with advanced alien life — and the lack of evidence that extraterrestrials exist anywhere in sight. "So where is everybody?" Fermi is thought to have remarked. 

    Related

    The researchers of the new study say they may have the answer.

    "Civilizations either collapse from burnout or redirect themselves to prioritizing homeostasis, a state where cosmic expansion is no longer a goal, making them difficult to detect remotely," astrobiologists Michael Wong, of the Carnegie Institution for Science, and Stuart Bartlett, of the California Institute of Technology, wrote in the study. "Either outcome — homeostatic awakening or civilization collapse — would be consistent with the observed absence of [galactic-wide] civilizations."

    The pair came to their hypothesis by researching studies of the "'superlinear"' growth of cities. These studies suggested that cities increase in size and  energy consumption at an exponential rate as their populations grow, inevitably leading to crisis points — or singularities — that cause rapid crashes in growth, followed by an even more precipitous, potentially civilization-ending, collapse. 

    "We hypothesize that once a planetary civilization transitions into a state that can be described as one virtually connected global city, it will face an 'asymptotic burnout,' an ultimate crisis where the singularity-interval time scale becomes smaller than the time scale of innovation," they wrote. 

    These close-to-collapse civilizations would be the easiest for humanity to detect, the researchers suggest, as they would be dissipating large amounts of energy in a "wildly unsustainable" way. "This presents the possibility that a good many of humanity's initial detections of extraterrestrial life may be of the intelligent, though not yet wise, kind," the researchers wrote.

    To avert their doom, civilizations could undergo a "homeostatic awakening," redirecting their production away from unbounded growth across the stars to one that prioritizes societal wellbeing, sustainable and equitable development and harmony with their environment, the researchers suggest. While such civilizations may not completely abandon space exploration, they would not expand on scales great enough to make contact with Earth likely.

    The researchers point to a few of humanity's "mini-awakenings" that addressed global crises on Earth, such as the reduction of global nuclear arms stockpiles from 70,000 warheads to below 14,000; the halting of the once-growing hole in Earth's ozone layer by banning chlorofluorocarbon emissions; and the 1982 international whaling moratorium.

    The scientists stress, however, that their suggestion is simply a hypothesis, taken from the observation of laws that seem to govern life on Earth, and is designed to "provoke discussion, introspection and future work."

    Their proposal joins a bountiful crop of other scientific and popular suggestions as to why we've never made direct contact with celestial visitors. These include the numerous practical challenges presented by interstellar travel; that aliens may actually be visiting in secret; or that aliens arrived to Earth too soon (or humans too early) in the life of the universe for direct contact.

    Another hypothesis, published April 4 in The Astrophysics Journal, suggests that the sheer scale of the universe means it could take as long as 400,000 years for a signal sent by one advanced species to be received by another — a timescale that’s far greater than the brief period humans have been able to scan the skies.

    Avi Loeb UFO Are Extraterrestrial

    Harvard Professor Is Right: Some UFOs Are Aliens, Govt. Officials From D.C. Told Him

    Mysterious difficulties are still preventing the release of information related to the government’s hoarding and suppressing data about the first known interstellar object to land on Earth, nearly a year after U.S. Space Command confirmed that scientists had correctly identified it. Whereas, scientists provide an explanation for the trajectory of the most controversial “Oumuamua.”

    Scientists Jennifer Bergner and Darryl Seligman submitted a paper, concluding that Oumuamua contained water and molecular hydrogen, which froze into ice due to the extreme cold of deep space. When the interstellar object entered the inner solar system and warmed up, the ice converted to its crystalline state, causing the H2 to be forced out and provide the propulsive push that explained the acceleration. The scientists ruled out nitrogen and carbon monoxide as possible explanations for the outgassing and acceleration because their levels were too low.

    Dr. Avi Loeb said: “Oumuamua was not a Hydrogen-Water iceberg.” He submitted a new paper in collaboration with Thiem Hoang, challenging the surface temperature calculation of Oumuamua made by Bergner and Darryl in their recent paper published in Nature. He and Hoang argue that the calculation ignored the cooling effect of evaporating hydrogen, leading to an overestimation of the surface temperature by a factor of 9. The decrease in surface temperature limits the thermal annealing of water ice, further challenging the original model’s credibility.

    Additionally, Dr. Loeb argues that Oumuamua’s lack of a visible coma, absence of carbon-based molecules or dust, and its unusual elongated shape, are all inconsistent with it being a generic comet. Dr. Loeb has previously proposed the possibility that Oumuamua is artificial in origin, which has sparked debates among experts.

    In 2019, Amar Siraj and Dr. Loeb discovered an interstellar meteor near Papua New Guinea in 2014 and attempted to confirm their discovery. Relevant data had been collected by Department of Defense sensors, which were used to track nuclear explosions and was classified. In 2022, after delays, Space Command confirmed the researchers were correct about the meteor’s origin. This raised questions about why the government had suppressed information about the discovery for years.

    According to this report, Motherboard filed a request under the Freedom of Information Act with different federal agencies seeking insight into why the government was not sharing data about alien bodies transiting our solar system. One request was filed with the Department of Energy in April 2022, and sought emails from two scientists at Los Alamos National Laboratory, who mentioned the terms asteroid, meteor, or debris. Motherboard requested expedited processing due to the public’s interest in the topic.

    The Department of Energy informed Motherboard that the request had been forwarded to the National Nuclear Security Administration, and a government information specialist later informed Motherboard that they had not demonstrated a compelling need for expedited processing. The request’s estimated completion date was moved several times, and Motherboard was ultimately told there is no estimated completion date due to “a few difficulties that the NNSA’s Los Alamos Field Office and/or Lab will have to work out.”

    There is no definite answer to why mainstream scientists are trying to diminish Dr. Loeb’s discovery of Oumuamua and his bold acceptance of extraterrestrials. However, in his recent blog post, he mentioned that he was visited by two government representatives from Washington DC, who assumed he was on the right path. Perhaps, he is right about some UFOs might be extraterrestrial. (Source)

    “‘Am I wasting my time?’ I asked the two visitors who came all the way from Washington DC to my home a couple of days ago. ‘Not at all,’ they assured me,” writes Dr. Loeb. He further added: “There is, of course, a lingering possibility that I am naïve and UAP are smoke and mirrors. In that case, we will find out soon enough. This is why I asked my guests from DC whether I may be wasting my time. I have no access to classified data and the publicly available data is not convincing. But the known facts are intriguing enough to get me going. Just as the nature of dark matter inspired me to write many scientific papers as a theoretical astrophysicist.”

    Dr. Loeb has written extensively about dark matter and other cosmic phenomena. However, he is now leading the Galileo Project, which aims to investigate unident ified aerial phenomena (UAP) and determine if any have an extraterrestrial technological origin. The author notes that the scientific community has not been open to exploring UAP in the same way they have been with dark matter, and that this is a problem.

    Read also:

    He argues that new scientific knowledge is gained through high-quality data, and the path to this knowledge should not be hindered by academic intolerance or low-quality data. He also notes that UAP research is often hindered by unsubstantiated claims and low-quality data, and that the focus should be on collecting new high-quality data to determine the nature of UAP.

    A recent poll conducted by Professor Brian Keating from the University of California, San Diego, shows that 51.1% of respondents believe that the first Oumuamua was of extraterrestrial technological origin, despite inconclusive scientific evidence.

    According to Dr. Loeb, “three of the known four interstellar objects (ISOs) appear anomalous, namely the meteors IM1 and IM2 in their high material strength and Oumuamua in its non-gravitational acceleration without a visible cometary tail, is intriguing for those who maintain their childhood curiosity or beginner’s mind (Shoshin) of Zen Buddhism. This evidence is not intriguing for everyone. Some science journalists celebrated a Nature paper last week and chose to ignore a follow-up paper which demonstrated that the Nature paper violated energy conservation, in order ‘not to confuse their readers.'”

    On March 7, 2023, Avi Loeb presented a paper co-authored with Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick, Director, All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) of the Pentagon, stating that some UAPs could be small probes from an alien mothership. The paper describes physical constraints on UAPs using known forms of matter and radiation and states that the lack of radio signatures could indicate inaccurate distance measurements.

    Dr. Loeb suggests that an artificial interstellar object could release many small probes during its close passage to Earth, which could reach Earth or other Solar system planets for exploration, and would be undetectable for existing survey telescopes but could be detected by deep space radars and space fences. The changes in arrival time and distance of the closest approach to Earth would manifest due to a small ejection speed far away, leading to a large deviation from the trajectory of the parent craft near the Sun.

    In conclusion, the idea that Oumuamua and some UAPs could be of alien origin is a topic that continues to intrigue and spark debate among scientists and the general public. While some believe that the inconclusive scientific evidence does not support this claim, others like Dr. Loeb and Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick have presented research and theories that suggest the possibility of alien probes. As technology advances, it will be interesting to see if we can detect more evidence that could provide answers to this ongoing mystery.

    The Siberian Unicorn: A Collision of Science, Myth, and Legend

    The Elasmotherium, colloquially known as the Giant Rhinoceros or the Giant Siberian Unicorn, is a prehistoric rhinoceros species that once roamed the Eurasian region during the Late Pliocene and Pleistocene eras. Their existence has been traced back to 2.6 million years ago, with the most recent fossils being approximately 29,000 years old. The most recognized species of this group, the E. sibiricum, compared to a mammoth in size, had a hairy exterior and is believed to have sported a large horn on its forehead, giving rise to its nickname, the "Siberian Unicorn". Initial descriptions estimate the beast to have stood around 2 meters (6.56 ft.) in height, measured 4.5 meters (14.76 ft.) in length, and weighed a hefty 4 tonnes.

    Decoding the Tale of the Siberian Unicorn

    The Elasmotherium species was first identified in 1808 by Johan Fischer von Waldheim, the perpetual Director of the Natural History Museum at Moscow University. His claim was based solely on the lower jaw of the species, gifted to the museum by Yekaterina Romanovna Vorontsova-Dashkova, which led to further study and identification of the species.

    In March 2016, an excellently preserved skull was discovered in the Pavlodar region of Kazakhstan, indicating the species' survival until the Pleistocene era around 29,000 years ago, challenging the prior belief that they had vanished 350,000 years ago. Judging by the skull's size and condition, it is hypothesized that it belonged to an elderly male, though the cause of death remains a mystery.

    The Siberian unicorn's appearance, dietary habits, and behavior are subjects of various hypotheses owing to the wide-ranging interpretations of the reconstructions. Some depict the creature running like a horse, others bent over with its head towards the ground similar to a bison, and still others submerged in a swamp like a hippo.

    Controversies over the Siberian Unicorn’s Horn and Extinction

    The existence, size, and purpose of the horn remain hotly contested. Speculations regarding its function span from self-defense, to mate attraction, to competition deterrence, to snow clearing for feeding, and even to digging for water and plant roots. Considering the creatures were herbivores like present-day rhinos, it's unlikely the horn was used to attack or kill prey.

    Only indirect evidence from sparse specimens exists to confirm if the beast had a horn or not and whether it was covered in hair or was hairless. Nonetheless, some evidence points towards the animal having a hairy exterior, much like the well-known woolly mammoth.

    The primary evidence indicating that the Siberian unicorn possessed a horn is the frontal protrusion on the skull, which caught 19th-century paleontologists' attention and was instantly deemed the base for a horn. There is also evidence that the horn was not circular, as a fossil with a non-circular, partially healed puncture wound in the base suggests it could have been the result of combat with another male possessing a horn.

    While male Siberian unicorns likely engaged in territorial disputes, their territory stretched from the Don River to eastern Kazakhstan. Findings suggest these ancient rhinos inhabited the southeast of the West Siberian Plain for an extended period. The exact cause of the extinction of the last Siberian unicorns remains uncertain. Scientists are examining specific environmental elements that might have triggered the species' extinction, hoping to glean insights that could be applied to modern species facing extinction.

    There is no clear reason why the final Siberian unicorns died out.

    The Legendary Unicorn

    Myths and legends about unicorns, or creatures with a single horn, have permeated Chinese and Eastern European cultures for thousands of years. The Chinese term "K’i-lin," referring to a certain type of creature, was assimilated into Turkish and Mongolic languages and folklore. Although scribes in these languages struggled to describe the creature, a recurring theme was its single horn and its imposing size.

    A bronze relic from the Warring States period portrays an animal remarkably similar to one depicted in cave paintings thought to represent Elasmotherium: grazing with its head lowered, a horn jutting from its forehead, and a drooping head and shoulders.

    In 1866, Vasily Radlov encountered a Yakut legend in Siberia about a "gigantic black bull" slain by a lone spear. The beast reportedly had a single horn so enormous it had to be transported by sled. Other legends in this region typically involve a large white or blue woolly bull with a massive horn on its forehead.

    From medieval Northern Russia, a collection of ballads, named "Golubinaia kniga" or "The Book of the Dove," influenced by Zoroastrianism and laced with Christian nuances, emerged. The ballads portray a righteous unicorn combating a lion, symbolizing falsehoods. The unicorn in these tales resided on a sacred mountain and was considered the progenitor of all animals. This creature saved the world from drought by using its horn to dig up springs of clean, fresh water. At night, it wandered the plains, blazing trails with its mighty horn.

    This creature features in other religious scriptures as well, though it is generally seen more as a symbolic entity than a real one. The Arabo-Persian term for a unicorn conflates unicorn and rhinoceros, viewing the rhinoceros as a symbol of truth and goodness. In Christianity, the single horn represents monotheism.

    While mythology hints at the creature's existence, it is only circumstantial evidence. More research and additional fossils need to be discovered before we can definitively determine what this creature looked like and if unicorns were ever real.

    Most advanced synthetic human embryos yet spark controversy

    Two teams of scientists have announced that they have grown embryo-like structures, made entirely from human stem cells, that are more advanced than any previous efforts. The synthetic embryos developed to a stage equivalent to that of natural embryos about 14 days after fertilization.

    Such experiments could provide opportunities to study human embryonic development at later stages than ever before. But they also raise ethical and legal questions about the status of such ‘embryo models’ and how they should be regulated.

    The work is described in two preprint studies1,2, posted to the bioRxiv server on 15 June by teams led by developmental biologist Magdalena Zernicka-Goetz at the University of Cambridge, UK, and stem-cell biologist Jacob Hanna at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovot, Israel. Both groups had previously presented their findings at scientific meetings, with the work making headlines after Zernicka-Goetz spoke about her results at the annual meeting of the International Society for Stem Cell Research in Boston, Massachusetts, on 14 June.

    Nature spoke to scientists about what these developments could mean for research on human embryos.

    What did the researchers do and how does it differ from previous work?

    Both teams allowed their embryo-like structures to self-assemble from human embryonic stem cells, some of which had been converted into cell types resembling the stem cells that form a placenta and the cells that form the yolk sac outside a naturally developing embryo.

    The researchers say that the resulting embryo models show structures and gene transcription profiles found in human embryos between 6 and 14 days after fertilization — up to the onset of the stage called gastrulation, when the cells that will form the embryo become organized into a layer between the amniotic cavity and the yolk sac.

    Researchers have made similar entities before from the stem cells of humans and other animals. Last year, both Zernicka-Goetz’s and Hanna’s teams used similar techniques to create embryo models from mouse cells that developed all the way up to the stage at which organs such as the heart and brain begin to form3,4. Human embryo models haven’t got that far, but in a preprint posted on bioRxiv on 17 May, stem-cell biologist Ali Brivanlou at the Rockefeller University in New York City and his co-workers reported the development of human embryo models that show signatures of gastrulation equivalent to those seen at around 12 days after fertilization5. The latest studies1,2 say that they have made the most advanced human embryo models so far.

    What is the significance of the embryos lasting for 14 days?

    Research on natural human embryos tends to observe a widely adopted guideline — enforced by law in many countries — that human embryos should not be cultured in the laboratory beyond 14 days. This means that researchers have to use animal models to study later stages of embryonic development. These do not necessarily reflect the corresponding processes in humans.

    But because in most countries embryo models do not meet the formal definition of an embryo, they are not subject to such restrictions. “We sought to develop a tool to ask specific questions about the second week of human embryo development, since using actual human embryos in research is ethically and technically challenging,” says Zernicka-Goetz.

    Models that are older than 14 days could therefore offer important insight into human embryonic development that cannot currently be obtained. They could be used to study developmental defects, for example, or pregnancy loss.

    Why is the research scientifically controversial?

    Growing embryo models to ever-later stages of development has become a highly competitive race, provoking many arguments about the merits of claims made.

    It remains to be seen whether the claims made by the latest studies, neither of which has yet been peer-reviewed, will pass muster. Alfonso Martinez Arias, a developmental biologist at Pompeu Fabra University in Barcelona, Spain, says there is “nothing” in the results described by Zernicka-Goetz and her colleagues that can be considered analogous to real 14-day embryos. “What we can see is masses of cells separated into compartments, but no embryo-like organization,” he says. He thinks that the over-expression of some genes needed to produce the extra-embryonic cell types “confuses what cells do”, and argues that the results do not show anything that goes beyond earlier work.

    Zernicka-Goetz acknowledges the limitations of embryo models for studying development. “These structures do not recapitulate all aspects of the embryo,” she says, “but rather serve as a complementary tool for us to study the differentiation of specific tissues during key stages of development.”

    What about ethical concerns?

    The results have sparked a discussion about the status of human embryo models in general, and whether they should continue to fall outside legislation on human embryos. Although they are not subject to the 14-day rule, the embryo-like structures reported by Zernicka-Goetz’s and Hanna’s groups do need to respect guidelines and regulations on the use of the human embryonic stem cells from which they are made. But other groups have made embryo models using ‘induced’ stem cells derived from adult tissues6, which are not governed by such rules. Those embryo models “are not regulated at all”, says Robin Lovell-Badge, a cell biologist at the Francis Crick Institute in London.

    So far, no one has made embryo models that have the capacity to develop into human beings, but a recent study on monkey embryo models showed that such models could induce pregnancy (which terminated spontaneously soon after) if placed in the uterus7.

    Some researchers think that a revised definition of an embryo is needed to clarify the issues. For others, the whole purpose of embryo models is to circumvent the current constraints on embryo research. “These models do challenge the need to stick to the 14-day rule,” says Lovell-Badge, who was part of a committee that, in 2021, recommended relaxing the guideline.

    In any case, there are significant challenges to making human embryo models that live much longer, says Martinez Arias. Creating structures that develop up to 21 days “will not be easy”, he says. “I will be surprised if [human embryo models] can go beyond it.”

    Powerful green laser beaming into space from the Amundsen-Scott Antarctica Station

    On June 12, 2023, Dr. Steven Greer held a stunning UFO disclosure press event at Washington's D.C. press club. 
    One of the whistleblowers was Eric Hecker, Raytheon contractor who worked at the Ice Cube Neutrino observatory, constructed at the Amundsen–Scott South Pole Station in Antarctica, from 2010-2011. 
    Green laser  beaming into space from the Amundsen-Scott Antarctica Station on June 17, 2023.
    Not only Eric Hecker stated that this Antarctica station is a huge air traffic control power station that monitors all interstellar craft that be operated by humans as well as non-humans but he also said that he witnessed a powerful green laser on top of this facility beaming into the cosmos. 
    According to the official statement, this green laser instrument, the so-called LIDAR, is used to study the atmosphere. Now, on June 17, 2023 the webcam of the Amundsen-Scott base captured such a green laser beaming directly into space, but Eric believes this laser is a form of long range communications or defense system.  
    If Eric is right that this green laser is used for long range communications, then it may be possible that this instrument is used to communicate with interstellar craft (like the secret space fleet) that be operated by humans.

    Could the megalodon still exist today?

    Megalodon (Carcharodon carcharias) was the largest shark to ever live, growing to around 60 feet (18 meters) in length. 
    (Image credit: Damiano Pierotti/Shutterstock)

    From 20 million to 3.6 million years ago, Earth's oceans were dominated by an enormous species of shark called the megalodon. The scientific name, Otodus megalodon, means "giant tooth" — and it's easy to see why. With teeth up to three times the size of those of a great white shark (Carcharodon carcharias), the megalodon also reached lengths of 60 feet (18 meters) — making it the ultimate apex predator until it became extinct.

    Yet rumors persist that these supersized sharks are still alive, with TikTok and YouTube videos speculating on how they might have survived gaining millions of views. Is it really possible for the megalodon to be alive today, lurking somewhere in the ocean? 

    Jack Cooper, a doctoral student at Swansea University in the U.K., is a member of the Pimiento Research Group, which studies marine diversity through time. He has spent years studying the megalodon — and says they are most definitely extinct.

    "Any suggestion that megalodon potentially still exists in unexplored ocean regions is complete nonsense based on not a shred of credible evidence," he told Live Science in an email.

    Related: 

    Although the majority of the ocean hasn't been explored, Cooper said there are several reasons why the megalodon isn't still lurking in our oceans. Firstly, the food chain would look very different if the species was still alive.

    "Megalodon was not only a very big coastal shark that would definitely have been seen by now, it was also an apex predator higher on the food web than any living marine predator. As such, it would've been a huge influence on ocean ecosystems," he explained.

    Megalodon (left tooth) may have been driven to extinction, in part, by the arrival of great white sharks (right tooth).

    "Its disappearance had cascading consequences. Whales, one of their key prey items, got even bigger after megalodon went extinct with nothing around to eat them," he added. "Some of the biggest marine mammals today like the blue whale only evolved after megalodon went extinct. So, in short, the modern day food web has partially been shaped by megalodon not being there."

    Megalodon in the Mariana Trench?

    Scientists are still learning about some of the most mysterious and unmapped regions of our oceans, particularly the deepest areas like the Mariana Trench, which stretches down 35,876 feet (10,935 m) below the ocean surface. Although it's exciting to imagine giant sharks living secretly in the depths, Cooper said they wouldn't be able to survive in such an inhospitable environment.

    "The deep sea would be totally unsuitable habitats for such a big apex predator," he said. "We find deep sea sharks all the time and none come anywhere close in size to a 20-meter [65 feet]  giant. As megalodon was likely consuming fairly large prey, those smaller animals wouldn't be great sources anyway. The Mariana Trench has mostly microscopic life that wouldn't even feed one megalodon, let alone a secret population."

    Kenshu Shimada, a paleobiologist at DePaul University in Chicago who has studied megalodon, said that claims these massive sharks still live somewhere today have never been substantiated.

    To understand why the megalodon would not be able to survive in today's oceans, it can help to understand how it went extinct. Although the exact cause is unknown, Shimada said there are several dominant theories.

    "A couple of major hypotheses include extinction due to climate change or competition with the great white shark that emerged a few million years ago. It is also possible that the extinction could have been caused by a combination of multiple factors."

    Cooper agrees that climate change may be a key reason why the megalodon went extinct. He said the megalodon's extinction has largely been attributed to a reduction in sea level from the Pliocene epoch (5.3 to 2.6 million years ago).

    "That reduction would have dramatically affected the coastal habitats of both the megalodon and their prey," he said. "It meant less area for them to live in and less food availability to replenish the huge amount of energy they needed to justify their enormous sizes and active predatory lifestyles. Today's sea levels generally remain much lower than the Pliocene, so such conditions are far from ideal for them."

    Finally, if megalodon were alive today, we would likely know about it as they would be under threat from poaching — much like the great white shark. "We would have seen crystal clear evidence of megalodon," Cooper said. "As humans kill as many as 100 million sharks every year, with larger sharks being at particular risk to this, they would probably not be able to survive us rather than the other way around."

    Astronauts that hibernate on long spaceflights are not just for sci-fi. We could test it in 10 years.

    In science-fiction movies, astronauts have been hibernating for decades.

    The first hibernation studies with human subjects could be feasible within a decade, a European Space Agency (ESA) researcher thinks. 

    Such experiments would pave the way for a science-fiction-like approach to long-duration space missions that would see crew members placed into protective slumber for weeks or months on their way to distant destinations. 

    Hibernating on a year-long trip to Mars would not just prevent boredom in a tiny space capsule; it would also save mission cost, as the hibernating crew members wouldn't need to eat or drink and would even require far less oxygen than those awake. There are other, rather odd benefits of hibernation, as well. Research in animals suggests that bodies of hibernating astronauts might waste away much less than the bodies of those awake in microgravity. Upon arrival, these hibernators would thus be fit and ready to commence challenging exploration almost straight away after regaining consciousness.

    Related: 

    For all these reasons, hibernation, also known as torpor, has long been a staple of sci-fi space movies. From "Alien" to "2001: A Space Odyssey," fictional space travelers have crossed vast distances cocooned unconscious inside high-tech pods while AI machines and android robots keep their spacecraft on a steady course. 

    Despite being a sci-fi trope, putting humans into long-term induced torpor may not be a far-fetched idea after all. Jennifer Ngo-Anh, a research and payload coordinator of Human and Robotic Exploration at ESA and a co-author of a recent paper outlining the space agency's approach to hibernation research, told Space.com that depending on funding availability, the first human torpor trials could take place as early as the mid-2030s. 

    "Of course, we need to finetune everything before we can apply it to humans. But I would say that 10 years is a realistic timeline," Ngo-Anh said. 

    This fine-tuning is already underway. First studies have shown that it's possible to induce torpor in otherwise non-hibernating animals, such as rats, and bring them safely back to life a few days later. The process of triggering hibernation is rather intricate and involves reduced exposure to daylight and a period of intense feeding followed by a strict fast. 

    "The rats receive a drug, a neurotransmitter substance, and are brought into a dark space with reduced temperature," Jürgen Bereiter-Hahn, professor emeritus in neuroscience and cell biology at Goethe University in Frankfurt, Germany, and member of ESA's hibernation research group, told Space.com in an interview. "It works very nicely, but the problem is that you have to apply the signaling molecule repeatedly to maintain the state. You need to maintain very high levels of the neurotransmitter and that could have deleterious effects over the longer term."

    Why do we want to make people hibernate?

    The question is whether induced torpor could ever be safe enough to be administered to space travelers in tiny spacecraft with minimal medical supervision and equipment. Ngo-Anh sees the problem from a different perspective. Torpor, she said, could, in fact, be the only way forward for long-duration space missions.

    Loss of bone and muscle mass is a big issue for spacefarers. Even at the International Space Station, where high-tech fitness machines are available and strict exercise protocols are followed, astronauts lose up to 20% of their muscle mass in a month. Their bones get gradually weaker too. Footage of crews returning to Earth frequently shows fragile beings transported by medical personnel in wheelchairs and stretchers. But there will be no support crews waiting by after a landing on Mars. 

    "This is a real problem for astronauts in microgravity," Bereiter-Hahn said. "Astronauts need to train a lot because otherwise they really would have serious problems when they get back to gravity conditions."

    Research shows that the effects of microgravity on the human body resemble those of long-term bed rest. Strangely, bed rest while hibernating doesn't seem to result in such effects at all. Unlike a patient recovering from a long illness or medical coma, an animal waking up from hibernation shows surprisingly high fitness levels. 

    "When animals wake up from hibernation, they very quickly remember their surroundings," Ngo-Anh said. "Within seconds, they remember where they hid their food before they went into hibernation, and they actually don't suffer much muscle loss, which is quite surprising after months just lying and sleeping in a cave."

    Researchers think that the key to the protective effects of the torpor state is its physiology. Although hibernation superficially resembles sleep, inside the body the process works in a completely different way. Unlike a sleeping brain, a hibernating brain produces barely any electromagnetic activity. The heart rate of an animal in torpor drops to only a few beats per minute, and its body temperature declines to what would otherwise be considered dangerous hypothermia. Even the cells that make up the animal's body stop their usual business of processing or creating  nutrients, dividing and dying. By all biological measures, the torpor state is almost like hitting a pause button on life. 

    "We know from studies that it reduces the lifespan of animals which normally go into torpor when they are prevented from going into torpor," Alexander Choukèr, a professor of medicine and an anesthesiology expert at the Ludwig Maximilians University in Munich, Germany, who is also a member of the ESA team, told Space.com. "When they have these torpor phases in between, the animals can live five years, for example. When the torpor is missing, it could be just four years."

    This pause-button quality of the torpor state is key to its promise for spaceflight missions. The hibernating astronaut in a Mars-bound capsule would not only save the agency cost for water, food and oxygen. He or she would, most likely, wake up rather fit, without suffering many of the negative side effects of long-term bed-rest or living in microgravity. In fact, studies show that the slowed down cells of a hibernating body don't get damaged by radiation, which is one of the biggest health-concerns during lung-duration space missions.  

    Boon to medicine

    These protective properties make hibernation a fascinating possibility not just for spaceflight, but also for medicine. Just like astronauts in microgravity, patients in long-term bed-rest and those in medically-induced coma waste away quickly. The recovery is slow and painstaking. 

    "We put people under anesthesia all the time, but they still degrade," said Choukèr. "After you leave an Intensive Care Unit, if you are there for a long time, you are like a skeleton because of the degradation metabolism that sets in. To be able to hit that pause button would be a game-changer."

    Slowing life processes, including the degradatory ones, to a minimum would provide what Bereiter-Hahn calls a "bridge," a period of time that would allow physicians to look for solutions without racing against the clock. 

    "You can use that time to, for instance, develop special antibodies for a tumor and treat that tumor very successfully," said Bereiter-Hahn. "Also in organ transplantation, you would put the whole organ into torpor, as well as the patient, and then you could exchange those organs at much less danger for the patient."

    In fact, added Ngo-Anh, cooling has been used by brain and cardiac surgeons for decades to improve outcomes of complicated surgeries. 

    Although most of the current hibernation research is funded by space agencies and zoology institutions, Choukèr thinks that the first human to be put into this paused state of being will most likely be an intensive care patient. Once the first human survives and benefits from torpor, things will likely start moving forward much faster. 

    "As it has always happened in medicine, you have to have the first human to be subjected to these conditions," Choukèr said. "At a certain point, there is a case number one where you apply [the new technique] because the risks and benefits are in a balance, and leaning more to the benefits of the subject. And then you can start from there."

    Choukèr is not worried if medicine doesn't have the complex biological intricacies of the torpor state including all of its neurotransmitter signaling and environmental factors perfectly nailed down by that time. Patients (and astronauts) could still benefit, just as they have done from general anesthetics for decades. 

    "We do [anesthesia] every day but we still don't 100% understand how it works," Choukèr said. "We've gained a lot of knowledge over the past 20 years but certainly, when they first started applying anesthesia, there was no real idea how this was working in the brain."

    The researchers, however, agree that for hibernation to be of any use in spaceflight, it would have to work without complicated life support machines and constantly monitored intravenous lines. The journey from patient one to a trip to Mars may therefore take quite a bit longer.

    UAP Reports Involve the Ocean Too, NASA Investigator Reveals

    Meet Paula Bontempi, the oceanographer and former NASA leader who has embarked on a mission to explain unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP).

    Last year, NASA announced that it would convene a team of selected experts across many professions, all at the peak of their fields, to figure out a roadmap for a topic the agency has traditionally avoided: UAP, shorthand for “unidentified anomalous phenomena.”

    UAP has become the official government parlance for UFOs, and NASA wanted to know what to make of the several dozens of UAPs reported by military personnel yet without an explanation. But to know what to make of it, analysts need to know what to look for in the first place.

    In a public meeting on May 31, team members announced that a full report from the 16-person team — encompassing, among others, astrobiologists, cosmologists, and even a former astronaut — would be forthcoming in July. The report will place all their various recommendations for the Pentagon’s All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) on how to solve these cases going forward.

    Weather balloons are frequent triggers for UAP sightings, according to the Pentagon.

    THE WASHINGTON POST/THE WASHINGTON POST/GETTY IMAGES

    Paula Bontempi, an oceanographer at the University of Rhode Island and former acting deputy director of Earth science at NASA, is one of those team members. She tells Inverse she was initially surprised by the invitation.

    Inverse spoke with Bontempi about the ocean’s role in our study of the cosmos, how to decide what’s normal, and Earth’s climatic “cholesterol.”

    Inverse: How were you approached to be part of the UAP Independent Study team?

    Bontempi: One day I got an email invitation. And I thought, do they really mean me? At the time, [UAP] was defined as “unidentified aerial phenomena” and then the National Defense Authorization Act redefined the “A” from “aerial” to “anomalous.” And that [new word] was to be all-inclusive in maybe reporting underwater [UAP] as well as in space; it wasn’t just Earth’s atmosphere where UAPs have been reported.

    I reached back out to Dan Evans, who was the NASA official in charge of the independent study team. And I had a chat with him, and they wanted me to participate as an oceanographer and as an Earth scientist who had a career at NASA. So, it seemed like a really exciting opportunity. The really cool thing was I probably never would have interacted with that group of people and expertise prior to this. That was one of the advantages of the study team, which all came from just a huge range of backgrounds.

    How often do you meet?

    Everything to this point has been sort of preliminary, but we have had a few briefings and meetings. But this was our first real deliberative meeting. It was nice to do that fully publicly. And I appreciate very much that NASA has been completely open and transparent about the process.

    What will happen between now and later this summer when the report from the group is ready?

    We will take the deliberations and the discussions, and we turn that into a report. That report will be publicly released sometime in the middle of summer — hopefully in July 2023. That will all be open and transparent and publicly available.

    When you introduced yourself, you said you study how light interacts with the ocean’s surface. Why is this important as a scientist to investigate? Could this knowledge help the team or the AARO understand the anomalous UAPs?

    In optical oceanography, in general, we study the propagation of light — electromagnetic radiation from the Sun — through the atmosphere and then through the air-sea interface.

    Think about it: if you’ve ever been diving into a swimming pool or swimming underwater, and you open your eyes. The further down you go, the darker it gets.

    ATLANTIC, FRENCH GUYANA - SEPTEMBER 2019: After 15 minutes of diving at 100m depth, divers must spen...

    Sometimes you can even see the interplay of the light with stuff that’s in the water. It’s almost like seeing the rays of the Sun penetrating the ocean.

    Using satellites, we can detect sunlight in the upper layer of the ocean. We can also tell what's in the ocean from satellites. Which is kind of mind-blowing, if you think about it, right? We can tell what’s living from what’s dead. Sometimes we can tell what types of algae or other organisms are in the ocean.

    NASA is continually developing new technologies and approaches to actually detail that information about our Earth system better. NASA explores the furthest reaches of the universe, and also the deepest depths of what’s happening on our planet. That’s very exciting.

    The UAP [team] could actually use that information. We aren’t a research panel, we are just trying to figure out what is a UAP, and can NASA data and technology be used to understand this.

    Data is the key to the explanation. For instance, it could be optical illusions, where you’re like “Oh my God, what was that? What was that I just saw?” And you know, what you see in that split second that you think you see something can really fool you into thinking something was real.

    That doesn’t mean somebody didn’t report that as a UAP, and maybe we have the data to explain that, and maybe not. But that was what the May 31 panel was about: Can we gather more data? What data should we be gathering to actually look at some of these reported events?

    Are you ever struck by the oddities of the ocean, and how much we don’t know?

    Yes I am. All the time. We’ve explored more of the surface of the Moon than we have of the deepest depths of our ocean. The ocean covers 71 percent of Earth’s surface, and it’s 96 percent of the available living space on the planet. We’re discovering new species and new things on our home planet all the time.

    One of the interesting things is there are initiatives at NASA called Oceans Across the Solar System. It asks, could Earth be an analog if and when we discover oceans or remnants of oceans on other worlds? Will we have learned enough about our planet and will studying those other worlds and the potential oceans there lead us to understand more information about our home planet? So it’s really an interesting field to think about, but yes, our oceans are a big mystery in many ways still.

    You spent a lot of your career addressing the climate crisis. From the UAP NASA team’s public meeting on May 31, I took away that the scientific method is the answer to solving the UAP unsolved mysteries, but also something many people in the public don’t often think about. If they are convinced that alien life is causing UAP, they’ll stick to their beliefs; and if someone sees UAP news as sensationalized events, they won’t engage with it at all.

    What does your experience tell you about how the public engages with the scientific method? Especially in the context of climate deniers, who don’t acknowledge the climate has gotten warmer due to human activity.

    The way I like to explain this to people, and this is relevant to UAP as well, is, how do we get information about what’s normal?


    The example I like to use is that it’s like going to the doctor and getting your cholesterol checked every year. If you just went one time you might know where you stand at that moment in time or that year. But if you go every year, you create a time series of information.

    We do the same thing with gathering data about Earth. And if you show a plot of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, the major greenhouse gas, or you show the warming of the Earth itself and it’s going up, and in the last 10 years we’ve had the majority of our warmest years ever. If your cholesterol looked like that, you would be like, “Oh my God, I have to do something about my health.”

    Well, that's what the Earth is showing us. Yet we’re still denying that our cholesterol is going up. We have a crisis, and it’s not pending, it’s here. So the same thing with UAP. Gathering enough data to know what’s normal so we can actually understand what is anomalous in our data. That is what NASA and scientific integrity is about.

    Viral YouTube video explains NASA's search for alien life

    NASA's Perseverance rover is looking for traces of past life on the surface of Mars.

    A new viral video details the efforts that NASA is making to find out whether we are alone in the universe.

    In the video, which at the time of writing has been viewed almost 1.8 million times, NASA astrobiologist at the Goddard Space Flight Center Heather Graham explained what actions the space agency is taking to hunt for the signs of alien life. 

    The video is hosted by Australian YouTuber AstroKobi, also known as Kobi Brown, who explains in the video that the NASA astrobiology program is currently working to address three fundamental questions: How does life begin and evolve? Does life exist elsewhere in the universe? And how do we best search for life in the universe?

    Graham says to even begin considering these questions, scientists must first understand what life actually is, with Brown explaining that life isn't just creatures like humans, but can include a range of radically different organisms. 

    Related: 

    "Everywhere we go on this planet, we see life, down at the very bottom of the ocean in the deepest sediments, encased in ice, and at the top of dry mountaintops," Graham said in the video. "We don't actually know yet how life on this planet began, and it's really a hard and tricky problem to get at because the Earth has looked wildly different over its history."

    This means, she added, that "rolling back clock" on Earth means considering environments that are now very foreign to us, with the fossil record providing examples of organisms that were, at one time, best suited to these different environments. That means when NASA is considering how life began, it has to think about how any life could begin. 

    "When we start to look at life this way and realize that life is this grand conversation happening with its environment, it makes it easier for us to imagine that on other planets, they also have rich histories, and they also may have been many planets over the course of their lifetime," Graham said. " And even more significant, this means that they may have also been able to accommodate many different types of life."

    As Graham pointed out, however, the fact that water is essential for all life as we understand it, as is energy from a star or another source and an environment that promotes the chemistry unique to life, narrows the search down somewhat.

    Small lifeforms would be a big deal 

    The main type of life that NASA concentrates on in the solar system is microscopic life forms or microorganisms. Though a world away from little green men crashing spacecraft into backyards in rural America as is often envisioned, Graham explains that the discovery of microbes on another world would be of tremendous importance. And given the history of our own world, hunting for microbes as a form of alien life makes complete sense.

    "We have to remember that the majority of our history has been microbial. Microbes were in charge of our planet for some three billion years before bigger organisms even showed up. If you think about the grand history of the Earth, it was a micro world for 70% of its existence," Brown explains. "If we find a microbe, it means we found a planetary chemistry that discovered how to build life. Yeah, maybe we wouldn't be able to talk to it, but at least we would know that we aren't alone and life isn't a one-off occurrence."

    Currently, one of the most intense searches for microbial life is underway on Mars, where the robotic rovers Curiosity and Perseverance are exploring regions that billions of years ago overflowed with abundant water in stark contrast to the barren and arid planet seen today. It is hoped that the rocks of these fossilized waterways of Mars could contain within them traces of ancient microbial life. 

    "A great example of a mission that's using chemical biosignatures is the Curiosity Rover on Mars," Graham said. "On that rover is an instrument called SAM [Sample Analysis at Mars], and it's basically an entire chemistry lab stuffed down into something about the size of a big microwave oven. Right now, on the surface of Mars, it's taking rock and pulling out organic molecules that we think might be possible chemical biosignatures."

    The astrobiologist also pointed out that scientists from NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA) are hard at work devising a Mars sample return mission that will pick up tubes dropped on the Martian surface by Perseverance and return them to Earth for analysis.

    And Mars isn't the only place where NASA is collecting samples.

    "We are all madly working to get ready for the return of Bennu, the asteroid sample that's coming to us from OSIRIS-REx in September of this year," Graham said. 

    Understanding asteroid samples is important because these space rocks are believed to have formed from the material that also birthed the planets. Unlike samples of asteroids that break away and land on Earth as meteorites, the samples returned by missions like OSIRIS-REx will be protected from the effects of entering Earth's atmosphere at high speeds, thus offering a more "pristine" look at the matter that formed our planet. This could also reveal potential organic molecules essential to life, implicating that these molecules could have been delivered to our planet in its infancy by space-rock impacts. 

    Some moons orbiting other planets of the solar system are also of particular interest to NASA in its ongoing search for life beyond Earth.  Ocean worlds like Enceladus, the sixth-largest moon of Saturn, and Europa, a moon of Jupiter, are especially enticing targets.

    "A mission coming up that I'm really excited about is the Europa Clipper launching next year. When we get better imagery [of Europa] we'll be able to better understand if it's a geologically active world," Graham said. "Previous missions suggest that at the bottom of Europa's oceans, there could be hydrothermal vents or openings in the sea floor."

    She added that these openings heat water and could fuel life beneath the icy shell of Europa, an ecosystem that sunlight struggles to reach. "On Earth, we see those same hydrothermal vent systems on our own sea floor as an oasis for life fueled by chemical energy," the astrobiologist continued.

    Graham also highlighted the potential of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to hunt for traces of life beyond the solar system. The grand telescope can detect biosignatures around extrasolar planets or "exoplanets" that indicate something in the atmosphere of these worlds orbiting other stars is using energy in that environment.

    "We may not know yet how life began on this planet, but we've learned how varied life is, and given time, how little it needs to rise," Brown concludes. "We also got a glimpse into some of the tools for how to detect it, and we found a possibility that life could have arisen beyond Earth and is somewhere hidden in the universe yet to be discovered. But my key takeaway is that today, we live in a world that is extraordinary and full of possibilities."

    The Curiosity image can be seen in its full glory here, with users able to switch between a plain and an annotated view of Mars.

    Las vegas UFO crash

    Las Vegas UFO Crash Is Real, Claims Man Worked For NYPD: 10-Foot Alien Terrified Witness

    Another historic extraterrestrial event has happened in the United States that will be debated in the UFO community until the truth comes out. On May 1, 2023, an object in the sky was noticed by several people in eastern California, Nevada, and Utah, which was later reported to be crashed including the alleged sighting of peculiar creatures in a residential backyard.

    The incident shares similarities with other extraordinary cases from around the world, involving crashes, encounters with strange beings, and puzzling elements that defy explanation. Such stories can be easily called hoaxes, as happened with the Las Vegas crash. But independent investigative journalist and former police officer Doug Poppa shed light on his involvement in the case and provided additional information about the crash incident, according to which it is not a hoax.

    Crash Incident

    Both the police and news investigators took the incident seriously from the outset. Just before midnight on April 30, 2023, numerous skywatchers across multiple Western States observed a bright fireball streaking across the heavens. Around the same time, a police officer captured footage of the colorful object on his body camera, and a nearby ring camera recorded an unusual sound resembling a crash.

    On May 1, 2023, Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department received a distressing call from a terrified family. In a ranch-style home close to the crash site, a family, consisting of two brothers and their father, was engaged in vehicle repairs in their yard. Suddenly, they caught sight of a sparkling object hurtling toward the ground, followed by what they described as a shockwave.

    Witness Account

    One of the witnesses, a 16-year-old teenager named “Angel,” reported that the area where the object landed appeared obscured and blurry, almost as if concealed by an unknown form of camouflage. Their curiosity led them to peer into the yard, where they were confronted by a sight that prompted them to urgently contact emergency services. They described the creatures as large, measuring between 9 and 10 feet tall, with notable features such as big eyes and shiny, non-human mouths. Angel emphasized their alien-like appearance, unable to find adequate words to describe them.

    Angel presents video evidence from police body cameras and a nearby ring camera, providing glimpses of the incident. The footage, albeit blurry, captures the intensity of the event and supports Angel’s account. He highlights specific moments in the videos where the creature is barely discernible but clearly present, further validating his claims.

    Describing the creature in detail, Angel recollects its tall and slender frame, sporting a gray-greenish hue. When he locked eyes with it, his body froze, reminiscent of sleep paralysis experiences. The creature had distinctive features, including peculiar feet, a large face with eyes, and a sizeable mouth. Angel recalls the creature’s loud, deep breathing, which resonated with his entire being.

    Overcoming the temporary paralysis, Angel sprinted toward the safety of his house, urgently dialing 911 to report the unearthly encounter. The 911 call records his distress and desperation, as he tries to convey the presence of two enormous, non-human entities in his backyard. Meanwhile, a cacophony of footsteps and whispered voices echoed in the background, further amplifying the sense of unease.

    Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (Metro Police) initially contemplated sending a crisis intervention team to assist the shaken witness. However, upon receiving further information from other officers, they treated the incident seriously. Two officers arrived at the scene 38 minutes after the distress call, exercising caution and even managing nervous laughter.

    The officers ventured into the backyard, discovering a perfectly formed circular impression on the ground, mysterious aftermath of the encounter.

    Several days later, two Metro sergeants returned to the location to conduct follow-up inquiries. The family also claimed to have observed individuals in suits and sunglasses driving a government-plated car slowly past their house. However, Nellis and Creech, nearby military installations, denied any involvement or interest in the incident.

    As the officers conducted their investigation, one of them expressed his own astonishment, stating that his partner had witnessed a similar light falling from the sky. This newfound validation encouraged the officers to take the situation seriously, engaging in further inquiries and canvassing the neighborhood for additional witness accounts.

    Remarkably, before departing, one officer advised Angel that if he ever encountered the creatures again, he should refrain from contacting the police and instead protect himself by any means necessary. This chilling advice underscores the gravity of the situation and the officers’ own apprehension.

    With the police’s departure, Angel and his family retreated indoors, seeking solace in prayer. However, their respite was abruptly shattered when an unnerving, human-like scream pierced the night from the backyard. The harrowing experience left the family shaken, questioning the nature of the events that unfolded before them.

    Las Vegas Story is Not Hoax

    Doug Poppa has been closely following the story of the mysterious object falling from the sky and the subsequent claims of encounters with aliens in a Las Vegas backyard. He was the first person to interview the family involved in the incident. Poppa conducted an interview with the family who made the initial call to the police, and they informed him that the law enforcement authorities installed surveillance cameras outside their home to protect them from UFO enthusiasts.

    Note: 

    • Poppa is an independent investigative journalist. He has authored more than 160 articles on the 2017 Las Vegas Massacre that were published by the Baltimore Post-Examiner. He is a former NYPD Auxiliary Police Officer, U.S. Army Military Police veteran, and former law enforcement officer. In 1986, he was the LCSO Criminal Investigator of the Year. He served 18 years in the Las Vegas hotel-casino industry as an investigator and Director of Security and Surveillance and worked for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

    While Poppa remains somewhat skeptical about the incident, he acknowledges that the family appears to be credible. In his tweet, he sarcastically questioned the Las Vegas Metro Police Department’s disbelief in the video camera surveillance system he recorded at the residence, emphasizing the extensive measures taken by the Technical and Surveillance Squad.

    Read also:

    According to local TV channel 8 News Now, an officer’s camera captured the object at around 11:50 PM local time, following a report from a resident about a non-human presence on their property. In an audio recording obtained by the TV channel, the homeowner described an eight-foot figure and another entity with big eyes inside their house, emphasizing that the beings were still present.

    Poppa expressed his surprise at the police installing expensive video equipment to respond to a UFO report, stating that it is unusual for law enforcement to take such measures in such cases. His doubts and observations contribute to the ongoing intrigue surrounding the incident, raising questions about the authenticity and nature of the reported encounters.

    During one of the interviews, Doug Poppa observed a peculiar occurrence. While interviewing Angel, the teenager who recorded YouTube videos about the incident, there was a mysterious female voice on the phone with Angel, instructing him to obtain Doug Poppa’s license plate. This strange interaction added an intriguing element to the investigation.

    In an interview with News Nation on June 15, 2023, Poppa confirms that he recently spoke with the family and shared his experience with them. He mentions that Angel has been facing intense scrutiny and backlash on social media. The family, being Hispanic, has also received threats and derogatory comments. Poppa expresses his disappointment and highlights the need for respect and understanding.


    Poppa emphasizes that three members of the family, including Angel, his brother, and their father, witnessed the strange creatures. He points out that during his interactions with the family, their accounts remained consistent, which he finds significant in assessing their credibility. As an experienced investigator with 40 years of experience, Doug Poppa made efforts to gauge the authenticity of their claims but found no reason to doubt their story.

    Regarding evidence, Doug Poppa mentions that Angel posted a video on his YouTube channel, but many people have criticized and analyzed it extensively. He notes that the Baltimore Post-Examiner was the first to publish a photo of the impression left in the soil, which Angel captured on the night of the incident. Additionally, Poppa obtained a photograph from Angel showing two sergeants from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department who allegedly returned to speak with the family a few days after the initial incident.

    Doug Poppa also discusses the installation of surveillance cameras on the family’s roof. These cameras were reportedly installed by the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department’s Homeland Security division for the family’s protection. However, Poppa finds it peculiar that the cameras had been removed a few days before he returned to the residence on May 27th.

    Poppa highlights the ongoing investigation and the need for further verification of certain aspects, such as the location of the ring camera mentioned in social media posts. He expresses his commitment to continuing his investigation into the incident and implies that there is more to uncover.

    To be noted:

    • According to NASA’s planetary defense officer Lindley Johnson, the green fireball observed in Las Vegas last month was most likely a bright meteor less than a meter in size and not a UFO that fell in anyone’s backyard. Johnson clarified that the object was high in the atmosphere and hundreds of miles away from Las Vegas when it was spotted, so nothing from the meteor landed in anyone’s backyard. He explained that NASA’s Center for Near Earth Object Studies (CNEOS) captures reports for objects estimated to exceed 1 meter in size based on the observed energy released. Therefore, smaller objects like the green fireball may not be included in NASA’s records. (Source)

    Aerospace Billionaire Saw Interdimensional Forces: Says UFOs & Consciousness Are Linked

    The most common and yet interesting question that many people ask is: Are we alone in this universe? The answer has taken a great turn from “Maybe yes” to “Maybe no” in the past few years. There is a long list of credible personalities who never denied the presence of non-human intelligent life among us. Moreover, a few of them are certain that aliens are on Earth. American billionaire Robert Bigelow said something shocking about aliens in November 2017.

    According to Robert Bigelow, famous in the aerospace industry for the manufacture of inflatable modules such as those tested out at the International Space Station, there are extraterrestrial beings living among humans. He said that he is “absolutely convinced” aliens live among humans on Earth. During the interview with CBS’ 60 Minutes, reporter Lara Logan asked Bigelow if he believes in aliens. He replied: “I’m absolutely convinced. That’s all there is to it.” He further said: “There has been and is an existing presence, an ET presence.”

    He continued: “I spent millions and millions and millions – I probably spent more as an individual than anybody else in the United States has ever spent on this subject.” “You don’t have to go anywhere” to find aliens and they are here right in front of people. Bigelow had his own close encounters but declined to go into detail.

    When award-winning journalist George Knapp asked his comment on this interview, he said: “There are different ways to go at this. So one is from a hardware standpoint. The other one is from the presence standpoint, ET presence. And, you know, a lot of people say, well, whether they’re, you know, that they can be among the population, whether they’re hybrids, or there’s some other kind of, really look alike, you know, kind of thing. But so, so you can look at it in different kinds of ways. And, and so, I know of a really good high quality researcher who has fantastic academic credentials and background. And he would be predisposed to the latter, saying that, yeah, it could be among us, you know, but he’s probably on the more extreme, he’s definitely on the more extreme. Others would say, well, we’re safe in saying that there’s hardware, you know, so that’s among us, and hardware kind of context.” (Source)

    Skinwalker Ranch, a property located in northeastern Utah has been the subject of alleged paranormal activity, including UFO sightings and other strange occurrences. The ranch gained notoriety in the 1990s when it was purchased by Mr. Bigelow, who funded a number of studies of the phenomena reported at the ranch.

    However, the specifics of what has been reported at the ranch and the credibility of those reports have been the subject of much debate and skepticism. Some people believe that the ranch is a hotspot for extraterrestrial activity, while others believe that the reports of strange occurrences at the ranch are the result of hoaxes or misidentifications of natural phenomena.

    Following his interview with Mr. Bigelow, Knapp then asked if the entities at Skinwalker Ranch would be investigated through the Bigelow Institute for Consciousness Studies (which he founded in 2020 after his wife passed away). Besides, he wondered that if they are among us, can they also be considered alien? Bigelow said: “Well, if you if you follow the literature and pay attention to a lot of other kinds of sources, they absolutely are.”

    Further, Mr. Bigelow shared his personal experiences and losses that prompted his interest in life after death, as well as UFOs. He talked about possible links between consciousness research and UFOs. He also talked about the risks of trying to establish communications with the unknown.

    “That’s been mainly what I’ve been doing except for the skinwalker ranch thing for 20 years as the space world has been huge in my life to pursue the legitimate parochial kind of you know using fire engines rockets to get you there. We didn’t expect anything like this to happen and so there this is different. This is the holy grail and is different than the second holy grail. If the second one is ‘Beings’ (E.T.), then the first one: Is there any part of your consciousness that survives your bodily death? That’s a big deal. That’s a huge story. That’s gigantic.”

    “Be a little careful about what you wish for. So on the face of it, communication sounds great and that by the way has been tried forever ever since the oracle of Delphi. I mean you can go back thousands of years and that’s been attempted. So It’s not now you know the last 100 years through electronics and using some kind of electrical apparatus to try to have some kind of communications. And you know communication can be at all different kinds of levels. There might be communication that just causes you an awareness.”

    Then Knapp asked him what triggered his curiosity about UFOs, possibly it was after Bob Lazar’s story came out. Mr. Bigelow replied that he was already into UFO research. He was looking at UFO stories worldwide to understand what they actually were.

    In 1992, he started the Bigelow Foundation with Bob Lazar, who worked on reverse-engineering recovered extraterrestrial craft at Area-51. Mr. Bigelow also backed Dr. John E. Mack, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard who wrote two popular books about his work with people who told him they had been abducted by aliens, and Budd Hopkins, an artist who became an abduction investigator and also wrote popular books.

    Mr. Bigelow’s investigative team, headed by Colm Kelleher, the institute’s scientific administrator and biochemist, documented their own paranormal events, according to a 2005 book “Hunt for the Skinwalker,” by Dr. Kelleher and Mr. Knapp.

    Mr. Bigelow said he saw “interdimensional” forces at play through portals at certain paranormal hot spots like Skinwalker. But he also said he had frequently visited the ranch without experiencing the kind of chilling events others reported, as if some intelligence were selecting the people to act upon. “I slept like a log every single night,” he said. And no human was physically harmed, but he said he and other visitors often carried strange things home, like a sulfurous stink in a certain part of his house. His wife felt the presence of a faceless creature pressing down on her side of bed. (Source)

    Bigelow amassed his fortune through the hotel chain Budget Suites of America and used this money to fund his UFO study. In an interview with The Associated Press, he said that UFOs are “under our noses” and wondered why news organizations had not extensively covered UFO sightings.

    In 2008, Mr. Bigelow secretly created BAASS (Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies) to study the UFO mystery and related phenomena. The public did not know that he had signed a contract with the Defense Intelligence Agency to do an investigation under the AAWSAP program.

    His political influence has been strong when it comes to UFO study. He once convinced his friend and then-Democratic U.S. Sen. Harry Reid to allocate $22 million to the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, which investigated UFO reports from 2007 to 2012. The majority of the funds were sent to Bigelow’s company to investigate, and the allocation was not made public until a 2017 New York Times investigation. The Pentagon stated that the program was terminated in 2012, although Reid later stated that he had no remorse about the expenditure.

    Later, he and his team hired dozens of investigators, scientists, and support staff to work on putting together a huge database of original investigations and UFO files from other countries. The now-famous 2004 Tic Tac encounter off the coast of Southern California was one of the cases that BAASS looked into.

    Unraveling the Tower of Babel: Myth or Reality? (Video)

    The ancient ruins of Babylon, located in central Iraq, have long captivated historians and archeologists alike. Among its remnants lies a structure that has stirred intrigue and speculation—the Etemenanki ziggurat, believed by some to be the legendary Tower of Babel . With its colossal size, estimated to have reached a towering height of nearly 300 feet, this ancient edifice stands as a testament to the grandeur and ambition of the Babylonian Empire.

    The biblical account of the Tower of Babel portrays a tale of human unity, divine intervention, and the consequences of defying higher powers. Scholars draw parallels between the ziggurat and the Tower, noting the shared location and remarkable similarities in construction materials. The presence of bitumen-infused bricks, as described in biblical texts, adds weight to these connections. Yet, the story does not end there. The question remains: Was the Tower of Babel destroyed by a mighty wind summoned by an angered deity, or was it brought down by the forces of nature, such as a powerful earthquake?

    Gov’t SOFT LAUNCHING UFO Truth?! Leslie Kean Weighs In On Whistleblower Reporting On Rising

    Leslie Kean

    As the world becomes increasingly advanced and interconnected, the topic of Unidentified Flying Objects is emerging from the shadows of skepticism into the spotlight of mainstream discussion. With the evolution of our understanding, the phrase ‘UFO sightings‘ has evolved from being a topic of wild conjecture to a serious subject of scientific investigation.

    Investigative journalist Leslie Kean, known for her steadfast reporting on UFO sightings and extraterrestrial phenomena, recently shed new light on this topic. The revelations, shared during her interview with a former intelligence official, have started an exciting discourse that might redefine our understanding of UFOs.

    Shattering the Silence: Whistleblower Unveils Government Secrets

    A startling revelation came from whistleblower David Grusch. He claimed that the United States has a task force retrieval program which allegedly possesses recovered non-human crafts. While the Department of Defense, represented by spokesperson Susan Go, has disputed these claims, this denial has not silenced the discussion surrounding UFO sightings.

    Grusch’s assertions are further supported by Leslie Kean’s body of work, including her New York Times article from 2017. In this article, she revealed a secret Pentagon program dedicated to UFO investigations, affirming the government’s active interest in the study of UFO sightings.

    The Intrigue of Non-Human Crafts

    One of the most intriguing elements of this discussion is the alleged possession of “non-human origin vehicles”. Grusch stated that the U.S. has recovered a significant number of these vehicles, an assertion Kean has found serious enough to report.

    However, both Kean and Grush have maintained that they are not claiming proof of extraterrestrial life. Rather, they underline the existence of vehicles of non-human origin and the vital distinction that it doesn’t necessarily mean they originate from extraterrestrial beings. The primary concern here is the propulsion of a more extensive investigation into the mystery of these crafts’ origins.

    Beyond UFO Sightings: Encouraging Government Transparency

    The existence of classified information within government institutions about UFO sightings is nothing new. However, Kean urges that transparency is key to a thorough understanding of these phenomena. The claims made by Grusch and Kean are not about proving the existence of aliens but rather about promoting comprehensive inquiry into UFO sightings.

    The recent interest of the Appropriations Committee in holding hearings on this subject is a promising development. The hope is that such hearings will lead to a more open discussion, sparking public interest and possibly encouraging more whistleblowers to step forward.

    Looking Towards the Future

    With such discussions now entering mainstream discourse, the anticipation is palpable. As people become more aware of UFO sightings and government involvement, the way we perceive these phenomena is changing. And while we can’t predict what we will uncover next, the importance of ongoing investigation and openness cannot be overstated.

    Exploring the mysteries of UFO sightings isn’t just about science fiction or conspiracy theories. It’s about our curiosity, our will to uncover the truth, and our ongoing journey to understand the universe we inhabit. These are exciting times for both believers and skeptics alike, as we all look to the skies with renewed interest and anticipation.

    Largest asteroid ever to hit Earth was twice as big as the rock that killed off the dinosaurs

    The Vredefort crater was birthed 2 billion years ago when the largest asteroid ever to hit Earth impacted the planet. A new study suggests the gargantuan space rock was even bigger than previously predicted.

    The largest asteroid ever to hit Earth, which slammed into the planet around 2 billion years ago, may have been even more massive than scientists previously thought. Based on the size of the Vredefort crater, the enormous impact scar left by the gargantuan space rock in what is now South Africa, researchers recently estimated that the epic impactor could have been around twice as wide as the asteroid that wiped out the nonavian dinosaurs.

    The Vredefort crater, which is located around 75 miles (120 kilometers) southwest of Johannesburg, currently measures about 99 miles (159 km) in diameter, making it the biggest visible crater on Earth. However, it is smaller than the Chicxulub crater buried under Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula, which measures around 112 miles (180 km) in diameter and was left by the dinosaur-killing asteroid that struck Earth at the end of the Cretaceous period about 66 million years ago. 

    But impact craters slowly erode over time, which makes them shrink. The most recent estimates suggest that the Vredefort crater was originally 155 to 174 miles (250 to 280 km) across when it was formed 2 billion years ago. As a result, the Vredefort crater is considered the largest impact crater on Earth despite being smaller than the Chicxulub crater today.    

    In the past, scientists thought the Vredefort crater was originally much smaller — around 107 miles (172 km) wide. Based on that estimate, researchers previously calculated that the asteroid responsible for the impact would have measured around 9.3 miles (15 km) across and collided at a speed of around 33,500 mph (53,900 km/h). But in a new study, scientists have revisited the crater's measurements and gained new insight into the size of the enormous space rock.

    Related: 

    In the study, which was published online Aug. 8 in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, researchers recalculated the size of the Vredefort asteroid and found that the destructive space rock likely measured somewhere between 12.4 and 15.5 miles (20 and 25 km) across, and could have been traveling between 45,000 and 56,000 mph (72,000 and 90,000 km/h) when it struck our planet.

    "Understanding the largest impact structure that we have on Earth is critical" because it allows researchers to build more accurate geological models, study lead author Natalie Allen, a doctoral candidate in the Johns Hopkins University Department of Physics and Astronomy in Baltimore, said in a statement. More accurate predictions of impactor sizes also could shed light on other craters on Earth and throughout the solar system, she added. 

    Size uncertainty 

    In the past, scientists have struggled to pin down the original size of the Vredefort crater due to its erosion over the past 2 billion years. 

    To understand how erosion affects ancient impact craters such as Vredefort, imagine continually slicing the rim off a bowl, Roger Gibson, a structural geologist at University of the Witwatersrand in South Africa who was not involved in the study, told NASA's Earth Observatory in 2018. "If you slice horizontally through the bowl progressively, you would see that the bowl's diameter will decrease with each slice you take off."

    In addition to the natural erosion of the Vredefort impact structure, newer rock formations have emerged atop parts of the crater, the researchers wrote. As a result, most of the crater's original structure has been completely covered by younger rocks and only small sections of the crater's elevated rim are visible today, making it even harder to tell how big the crater used to be.

    Today, large parts of the Vredefort crater are barely recognizable as an impact structure.

    However, other recent studies have estimated the Vredefort crater's size by focusing on minerals surrounding the crater. By doing this, scientists have spotted deformations and shock fractures in crystals, like quartz and zircon, that were caused by the ancient impact and thereby expand the known radius of the blast, the study authors wrote. 

    As a result, the researchers are confident that their new estimate for the size of the Vredefort asteroid is more accurate than previous estimates.

    A cataclysmic impact 

    When the dinosaur-killing asteroid, which likely measured around 7.5 miles (12 km) wide, hit Earth around 66 million years ago, the destruction caused by the impact was immense. The Cretaceous-ending event caused widespread forest fires and acid rain; generated mile-high waves in a tsunami that reached halfway across the planet; and sent plumes of ash and dust into the atmosphere, drastically altering the climate. Around 75% of life on Earth was wiped out by the event, according to a study published in December 2021 in the journal Scientific Reports

    Related: 

    Based on the revised calculations of the Vredefort crater's original size, the new study suggests that the Vredefort asteroid was likely around twice as large as the dinosaur-killer. It also may have been traveling much faster, so its impact would have been even more severe — potentially the single largest energy-release event in Earth's history, the study authors reported. However, because the impact happened so long ago, there is scant evidence of the blast's ground-shaking power and the effects of the collision on the planet. 

    "Unlike the Chicxulub impact, the Vredefort impact did not leave a record of mass extinction or forest fires given that there were only single-cell lifeforms and no trees existed two billion years ago," study co-author Miki Nakajima, a planetary scientist at the University of Rochester in New York, said in the statement. "However, the impact would have affected the global climate potentially more extensively than the Chicxulub impact did."

    Therefore, continuing to study Vredefort crater could be the only way researchers learn more about this cataclysmic impact.

    Jeremy Corbell UFO part of larger reality

    Filmmaker Jeremy Corbell Claimed ‘UFOs & Aliens Are Just Small Part of Larger Reality’

    Documentary filmmaker Jeremy Corbell has stunned UFO enthusiasts with his piece of evidence on the phenomenon and information he received while studying UFOs. He is the one who shared the video footage showing the UFO as a transmedium vehicle. Additionally, he says that UFOs and aliens are just a small part of a larger reality along with other interesting and eye-opening statements in an extensive interview with Theories of Everything with Curt Jaimungal.

    Jeremy Kenyon Lockyer Corbell is an American contemporary artist and investigative filmmaker based in Los Angeles, California. He did extensive research on nanotechnology, aerospace exploration, and exotic propulsion systems, as well as an in-depth examination into the life and discoveries of the enigmatic “Godfather of Conspiracy” John Lear.

    Corbell has documented the surgical removal of alleged off-world alien implants, and has filmed NASA’s analysis of anomalous materials alleged to be physical evidence of extraterrestrial nano-technology from UFO landing sites. He has obtained deathbed confessions from former CIA and government intelligence officials who claim to expose the truth about UFOs and the worldwide coverup of the ultimate truth.

    Jeremy Corbell

    Jeremy Corbell with former Pentagon UFO official Luis Elizondo.

    Corbell released the film “Bob Lazar: Area 51 & Flying Saucers” on Netflix, adding credibility to Lazar’s case. Moreover, his 2-hour interview with Curt Jaimungal discussed dozens of topics that added great information to the UAP/UFO phenomena. In 2021, he leaked a film of the US Navy photographed & filmed “spherical” shaped UFOs & advanced transmedium vehicles. In the footage shared by filmmaker and UFO enthusiast Jeremy Corbell, a flying object can be seen disappearing into the water off California.

    In this interview, he covers a variety of controversial subjects including the release of the Tic-Tac videos by the government, possible government disinformation campaigns, and the claims of Bob Lazar that he once worked on backward engineering an alien craft.

    UFOs and Aliens Just Small Part of ‘Larger Reality’

    Corbell asserted in the interview that aliens and UFOs are a small part of a much larger reality of this mysterious and mind-boggling phenomenon.

    He said: 

    “UFOs appear to be part of a larger phenomenon meaning UFOs are kind of an auxiliary implication of a much larger reality. So this idea that what we’re seeing are machines from other planets. I’m unconvinced what we may be seeing is an alternate reality. You know maybe it is something closer to dimensional travel.

    There seems to be another version of reality that is occurring and that somehow once they pop through into our reality. And this is not just from a cursory look at the ufo phenomenon, this is from talking with thousands of close encounter eyewitnesses who tell me that this is something bigger than just flying machines.

    To give you an example at Skinwalker Ranch. The report is that a piece of the sky opened up like a tear and out of this came “Beings” came “Craft.” So, UFOs is a symptom, it’s part of this alternate reality, The phenomenon as I call it. But it’s not just about UFOs represent this phenomenon.

    I know this to be true that Skinwalker ranch is the best example of this because you have UFO phenomena. But you also have cattle mutilation which is often associated with lights in the sky. So, cattle mutilation is something a concrete example.

    Cattle mutilation, Is this a UFO phenomenon or a government experiment, or is this a private corporation that’s going around mutilating these cows and draining their blood in the dead of the night? Nobody has ever been caught during these cattle mutilations.

    They are the same across the board. They’re drained of blood. The farmers and people that are cattle ranchers see UFOs oftentimes during these mutilations so I can’t separate them.”

    Dr. Travis Taylor’s Statement On Skinwalker Ranch

    Dr. Taylor joined businessman Brandon Fugals’s team at Fugals’s infamous Skinwalker ranch three years ago and firmly believed he would be able to resolve the ranch’s assorted mysteries in short order. But the longer he stayed, the stranger things became. In his interview with investigative journalist George Knapp, he said: “You know, I had never seen a UFO until I got out there. Now, I have seen more UFOs now than you can count.” (Source)

    In the surprisingly candid and wide-ranging interview, Dr. Taylor shared his opinions about the role of science in the pursuit of the unknown, his personal experiences with strange phenomena on Skinwalker Ranch, the physical effects of close encounter cases, and the mysterious “hitchhiker effect” that multiple UFO/paranormal eyewitnesses have reported.

    In his opinion, this unexplained phenomenon can be different for people in regards to their brain activity. Hypothetically speaking, he said that the phenomenon can be connected with different planes in the universe. He added that he could go along with the idea of a portal but was not sure. He believes it is bizarre but there is some truth to it.

    F-16s and UAP in Dogfight, Murderous Extraterrestrials, Guatemalan Chupacabras, Mass Vampire Graveyard and More Mysterious News Briefly

    Paul Seaburn

    A roundup of mysterious, paranormal and strange news stories from the past week.

    The National UFO Reporting Center reports that witnesses watched as two F-16 military jets engaged in a “dogfight” with an “Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon” over Bad Axe. Michigan, early in June this month – they said the white/metallic disc that they engaged with was difficult to see because of sunlight reflecting off the object but it was “extremely fast” and “capable of overtaking and outmaneuvering the fighter jets with extreme ease” as the jets fired at the spinning object three times before flying away and leaving the UAP, which eventually appeared to fly off over Lake Huron. That ringing in your ears is the rising sound of UAP whistleblowers.

    A new study by the University of Nottingham and published in The Astrophysical Journal calculates that there could be over 30 active communicating intelligent civilizations in the Milky Way galaxy based on the Astrobiological Copernican Limit which assumes that it takes 5 billion years for intelligent life to form on planets like Earth orbiting around a metal-rich star like our Sun, but we haven’t heard from any because they are too far away. While we all want to believe, sometimes these studies resemble scientists throwing stuff against a cosmic wall and publishing what sticks.

    Using data collected by NASA’s Cassini mission from 2004 to 2017, when it flew through a plume of gas emitted near the moon’s south pole, an international team of scientists discovered a rich array of minerals and organic compounds including phosphorus and other ingredients for the amino acids associated with life as we know it. What we really need to worry about is life as we DON’T know it.

    In Carnac, France, 39 standing stones or menhirs that historians believe were erected by prehistoric humans 7,000 years ago were destroyed after the town’s mayor approved a building permit for a DIY store – the mayor claimed the stones, which stood 20 to 40 inches, had "low archaeological value" even though they were thought to have had a sacred and funereal function and were a popular pre-historic tourist attraction. Sounds like this mayor may soon have a low re-election value.

    The mystery of the UFO that was picked up by police video cameras and appeared to land in a backyard in Las Vegas in May and the 10-foot aliens reportedly seen by a family after it occurred got more mysterious after an investigator who found the family’s testimony credible reported that the Homeland Security department of the Las Vegas Metro Police Department (LVMPD) installed video surveillance cameras outside the home after the incident – the family swears the tall, gray, greenish beings were real and is now in hiding because of all the publicity. This story is not going away anytime soon so get ready for showgirls dressed as aliens and extraterrestrial pancakes at the buffets.

    Alison Gunn Robson brought a battered ventriloquist dummy made in 1898 to hosts of the BBC One show The Repair Shop in hopes that they could repair the damage and get the inner mechanics working again and she loved the job they did … but viewers of the show were upset because the dummy creeped out some of them while others were surprised it didn’t attack the repair guys while they were asleep. Look for it to appear on a new competition show just for dummies called “A Mannequin’s Got Talent.”

    After a drone flying  over a field in Bolivia captured an image of farmers claimed was a Chupacabra which has been killing their llamas, cows and other livestock, residents of the southern Guatemalan town of Chimaltenango reported their own Chupacabra encounters when they found around 75 dead chickens, ducks and turkeys in a 25-mile radius – the birds appeared to have been attacked from behind and had their blood drained from their bodies. If only someone could convince Chupacabras of the benefits of a vegan diet.

    Avi Loeb, the Harvard professor of astronomy who can’t stop talking about UFOs and aliens, says he believes extraterrestrials will send AI drones to Earth rather than spaceships with alien crews, and those AI drones will be attracted to their own kind and make their first contact with our own artificial intelligence machines – which he says is “a bit scary to think about.” Maybe not … one conversation with ChatGPT and alien AI could decide this planet is hopeless and leave us alone.

    In a recent email, Elon Musk, who hasn’t been able to successfully launch the rocket that he’s building to go to Mars, mention in a Twitter conversation that he’s already looking at visiting the exoplanet Promixa Centauri B, which is a little over four light-years away orbiting Alpha Centauri, saying it is “Practically next door." Don’t accept a job from this man selling windows door-to-door.

    Researchers at a site in the Polish town of Mamerski where the German Army Supreme Command was headquartered during World War II took advantage of a deforestation project and explored a new area where they found wagon wheels and a set of railway tracks, leading them to believe this could be the infamous Nazi gold train long rumored to be carrying treasures and the gold and amber paneling stolen from the Amber Room of a Russian palace and hidden at the end of WWII. Let’s hope they find enough treasure to pay for all of the lawyers they’ll need to figure out who it belongs to.

    At a funeral in Ecuador, mourners thought they heard knocking, so they opened the casket and found that 76-year-old Bella Montoy was still alive, even though a hospital doctor had declared her dead following a suspected stroke – Bella was rushed to a hospital where, as of this writing, she is still alive and recovering from the ordeal in intensive care. Nothing shocks your heart back to life like finding out the ambulance is taking you back to the same doctor who declared you dead.

    Prabal Saxena, a planetary scientist at NASA's Goddard Spaceflight Center, says there is a good chance the Artemis III astronauts who land on the moon in 2025 will find microbial life in a crater at the lunar south pole and those microbes will look familiar because they probably came from Earth on a lunar lander and are able to survive in the extreme conditions by consuming lunar ice. If they are tardigrades, the astronauts better home they haven’t mutated into giant sand water bears.

    David Grusch, the combat veteran and former intelligence officer who turned Pentagon whistleblower and claims the US has run a top secret UFO retrieval program for decades, now says some of the 'non-human intelligences' who have come to Earth are discovered are nasty being who have killed humans – the evidence comes from classified nuclear site probing activities and witness testimonies, and the U.S. government will do anything to protect these secrets - including killing whistleblowers like himself. What happened to all the nice aliens like Mork from Ork?

    Roadworkers digging in the village of Luzino in northeast Poland were shocked when they uncovered a massive grave site with the skeletal remains of 450 people who had been decapitated with their skulls placed between their legs, bricks placed on their bodies, buried in unusual positions, or with coins in their mouths  – all signs that they were suspected of being vampires. Wouldn’t it have been easier just to surround the cemetery with a garlic farm?

    They may be called crop “circles” but one which appeared recently in a field in Roundway Down in Wiltshire, England, is getting special attention because it is an intricate labyrinth of geometric shapes and designs combining the usual circles with elaborate geometric shapes that could signify complex mathematical formulas or astronomical principles. Is this a sign that math majors at Oxford can’t get jobs and are resorting to making crop circles?

    What some are calling the world's first manned flying saucer made its first crewed flight over a lake in  Shenzhen, China,  with one person on board – the electric aircraft is powered by six fans with twelve blades, has “triple safety redundancy” in its power supplies, motors and flight control, and is said to be able to takeoff and touch down on both land and water. Its fans are loud enough to drown out the laughter of extraterrestrials watching it.

    The Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) has issued a water scarcity alert for parts of Scotland, including Inverness and the Locvh Ness area, following a prolonged period of dry weather which has emptied Loch Ness to its lowest levels since 1990 – with the drought conditions showing no signs of abating, many people are flocking to Inverness hoping that the loch will dry up and expose the Loch Ness monster. The water level at the loch is currently classified as "low" … so are the spirits of Nessie.

    The Qualia Research Institute (QRI), a California-based nonprofit group that researches consciousness, held a competition focused on “Psychedelic Cryptography” and awarded cash prizes to artists who made videos encoded with hidden messages that are designed to be visible only to people tripping on psychedelic substances, such as LSD, ayahuasca, or psilocybin mushrooms. They’re probably swamped with applications to be a judge in the next competition.

    German researchers Sophie Jentzsch and Kristian Kersting published a new paper examining the ability of OpenAI's ChatGPT-3.5 to understand and generate humor – they discovered that ChatGPT 's knowledge of comedy is so bad that it kept generating the same 25 jokes over and over, and most of the jokes were worse than those found in joke books. Put this ChatGPT-3.5 in a comedian robot and it would probably ask you to pull its mechanical finger.

    Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is an unexplainable scourge for many people, but a gastroenterologist at  Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles thinks the cause may be that the bodies of sufferers are unable to manage gravity, causing their diaphragm to move down and compress their intestines, causing elimination issues and bacterial overgrowth. If gravity is the problem, is space travel the cure?

    According to a new study which looked at the availability of caves to hide in, water supplies, military bases, food supplies and hospitals, the five best states for surviving an alien invasion are Nevada, Arizona, Wyoming, Idaho and Nebraska, while the five worst states are Virginia, Georgia, Massachusetts, New York and Louisiana. The five worst states could change their ranking by building giant arrows, visible from space, pointing to Nevada and Arizona.

    A team of researchers at Switzerland’s Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) unveiled an origami-inspired robot called the Mori3 which can fold and unfold itself like a piece of flat-pack Ikea furniture and change its shape into a huge number of three-dimensional forms, making it a possible tool for astronauts in a cramped spacecraft. Astronaut training will now include origami and Rubik’s cube solving.

    Following in the footsteps of Google, Meta has released its own open-source AI-powered music generator called MusicGen, which can turn a text description like “An ’80s driving pop song with heavy drums and synth pads in the background” into about 12 seconds of music – the testers say the songs are reasonably melodic. These days, “reasonably melodic” means it’s Grammy-worthy.

    In a better use of artificial intelligence, the Journal of Archaeological Science reports that scientists from Yamagata University in Japan used artificial intelligence to discover three 2400-year-old lost "Nazca Lines" figures in Peru - a fish measuring 62 feet (19 m) across, a bird measuring 56 feet wide (17 m) and a pair of legs, possibly part of a humanoid figure, more than 250 feet (77 meters) across. A fish, a bird and a pair of legs – it sounds like these lines were inviting aliens to come to Peru for its hunting, fishing and hiking.

    Unearthly Encounters in Las Vegas: A Deep-Dive into a Family’s Mystery

    los-angeles-ufo-crash

    In the heart of the bustling city of Las Vegas, under the bright neon lights, a bewildering incident took place on the 30th of April that sent shivers down the spines of many. A local family claimed that an unexplainable entity had crashed in their backyard, an occurrence so outlandish that they felt compelled to dial 911. But what was it that landed in their yard? Who, or what, were these beings deemed as “non-human” by the distressed household?

    Enter Doug Poppa, a seasoned investigative journalist with 40 years of experience, determined to uncover the truth behind the shadows. Poppa has since met with the family in question and his investigation has shone new light onto this unusual case.

    The Persistent Tale of the Unexpected Visitors

    Poppa’s first interaction with the family occurred on May 19th, almost three weeks after the initial incident. According to Poppa, the family’s narrative remained consistent, regardless of the external pressure and skepticism they faced on social media. The family reported multiple sightings of the enigmatic creatures by different family members: Angel, a 16-year-old member of the family, his younger brother, and their father. The beings were reportedly as tall as a six-foot pole, as described by the family, a claim Poppa was able to verify by standing next to the referenced pole.

    Despite the severe scrutiny and the doubts cast on their story, the family stuck to their narrative. The non-human entities they described remained a constant element in their tale, and as they saw it, their story didn’t change.

    A Turning Point: The Installation of Cameras

    Poppa’s investigation took an unexpected turn when he discovered surveillance cameras installed on the family’s rooftop. These cameras appeared about two weeks post the incident and were mysteriously removed a few days later. This unusual occurrence was confirmed by Poppa and his police sources, affirming that the cameras were installed by the Technical and Surveillance Squad, part of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department’s Homeland Security Division.

    Curiously, the cameras were installed just three days before May 27th, when Poppa exposed their existence. According to the family, the police department sought permission to install the cameras on their property, citing it was for their protection. This move, however, was unusual and raised more questions than it answered. Was there more to this incident than meets the eye?

    The Unsettling Aftermath

    Despite the mounting pressure and the harassment the family faced, their story has stood firm. They continue to believe in what they witnessed and the reality of their eerie encounter. The authorities’ reactions, the heightened surveillance, and the unusual removal of cameras have only deepened the mystery surrounding the case.

    While there remain more questions than answers, Doug Poppa continues his relentless investigation. As this story unfolds and Poppa digs deeper, the public eagerly awaits the unraveling of the puzzle. What truly happened on that fateful April night? Who were the beings that visited this Las Vegas family, and more importantly, why did they come? The answers, as it seems, are still hidden in the shadows, waiting to be discovered.

    In the city of Las Vegas, where every day is a spectacle, an ordinary family experienced the extraordinary. Their story, a testament to the unexplored mysteries of the universe, challenges our understanding of the world around us and beckons us to keep questioning the unknown.

    Sprookjesachtige lichtende nachtwolken gespot: dit is hoe jij deze zeldzame wolk kan zien

    Elk jaar heb je in de periode rond de langste dag - 21 juni - kans om een heel bijzondere wolk te spotten: de lichtende nachtwolk. Dat is een zeldzaam weerfenomeen. Zeker de moeite waard dus om komende maand op een heldere avond even naar boven te kijken, vindt wetenschapsjournalist Martijn Peters. Maar hoe ontstaan ze? En wanneer en waar kijk je het best?

    The shocking revelation about government secrets and alien technology

    In an era when information is at our fingertips, it seems almost impossible for any global entity, especially the government, to keep a secret. However, in a recent interview with David Grusch, a former intelligence officer turned whistleblower, new light has been shed on undisclosed government programs and the possible existence of non-human intelligence, or NHI, as it is referred to.

    Grusch, who had been embedded deep within the U.S government’s clandestine operations, has come forward to share the extent of the government’s knowledge and cover-up of extraterrestrial life and technology. He asserts that while our government has secretively kept this information under wraps, it has simultaneously perpetuated an elaborate disinformation campaign to stigmatize the very idea of extraterrestrials.

    This disinformation strategy has been so skillfully executed that anyone daring to broach the subject of extraterrestrials was immediately sidelined as a conspiracy theorist, discrediting their claims, no matter how legitimate. The general consensus fostered was that talking about aliens was a mark of madness, hence the stereotype of the “tinfoil hat guy.”

    However, David Grusch stands as a credible counter to this narrative. As someone with an intimate knowledge of the government’s inner workings, he presents a strong case – strong enough that the U.S Inspector General deemed his whistleblower complaint as “urgent and credible.”

    Yet, one might ask why such earth-shattering information has not been leaked before. The answer, according to Grusch, lies in the government’s adept control of information flow and its ability to keep secrets. Many secrets have never seen the light of day, maintained under the tight wraps of national security and the imperative to avoid widespread panic. But these justifications become hard to swallow when we consider the potential benefits of such advanced technologies.

    VIDEO:

    Grusch’s ultimate goal is not just the public revelation of NHI existence, but more importantly, the release of non-human technology for the benefit of all. He draws a comparison with nuclear physics – while nuclear weapons designs are kept classified, the underlying nuclear physics is open for all to study. In the same vein, Gruschargues, knowledge about extraterrestrial life and associated technology should not be suppressed.

    Grusch’s revelations leave us standing at the precipice of a massive paradigm shift. If his allegations are indeed valid, the implications are world-changing, pushing us to reevaluate our place in the universe. We are now left grappling with the potential reality of non-human intelligence coexisting with us and the need to figure out our next steps.

    What will be the reaction of these non-human intelligences when they realize we know about their existence? According to Grusch, they appear neutral, having stood by as humanity fought wars and perpetrated genocides.

    Will the governments admit the truth, disband the military-industrial complex responsible for this colossal cover-up? Or will they continue to operate in shadows, keeping secrets and muzzling voices that dare to question?

    The future of our planet and humanity is in question, underscoring the need for courage, integrity, and transparency from our governments. It took one individual to shed light on these secrets. It will require collective willpower to confront these revelations, navigate the uncharted waters, and make informed decisions about our shared future.

    Strange radio emissions from a feeding star puzzle astronomers

    Astronomers studying the fastest and most dramatic nova ever recorded continue to find more puzzles than answers.

    Novas are sudden, bright flares of light in a two-star system created when a white dwarf, the core of a dying star that has run out of fuel, steals material away from its companion star, causing the white dwarf to temporarily brighten. A nova known as V1674 Hercules found in a bizarre binary star system — made up of a white dwarf and a shredded companion in the Hercules constellation — has been the object of much interest since it first erupted two years ago on June 12, 2021. Astronomers were baffled by its light and energy, which rang like a bell, as well as its mysterious and intense winds that pumped stellar material into surrounding space.

    Now, a team of researchers has spotted strange radio emissions sprouting from deep inside the V1674 Hercules nova that are very different from the high-temperature emissions normally seen during such events. "Right now, we're trying to determine if the non-thermal energy is coming from clumps of gas running into other clumped gas which produces shocks, or something else," Montana Williams, a graduate student at New Mexico Tech who is leading the new research, said in a statement.

    Related: 

    Wiliams revealed the strange emissions last week in a news briefing at the 242nd meeting of the American Astronomical Society being held in Albuquerque and online. Those emissions may be from interactions among chunks of stellar material ejected during the explosion, which is quite rare for "classical nova" such as V1674 Hercules, Williams said.

    "Classical novas have historically been considered simple explosions, emitting mostly thermal energy," she added in the statement. "Instead, it seems they're a bit more complicated."

    To study V1674 Hercules, Williams and her colleagues are using the Very Long Baseline Array, which is a network of ten antennas spanning the United States from Mauna Kea in Hawaii to Saint Croix in Virgin Islands. By combining those observations with similar data from other telescopes also watching the nova, including the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array telescope facility in New Mexico and the space-based Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (or NuSTAR), the team hopes to understand what's causing the mysterious radio emissions.

    Researchers can measure how fast a nova evolves by observing how long the explosion takes to fade two magnitudes from its peak brightness. Extremely fast events take less than 10 days, moderate can ones take up to 80 days and the slow ones take anywhere from 80 to 150 days. The V1674 Hercules nova (or V1674 Her), whose flash of light was so bright that it could be seen with the unaided eye, took only 1.1 days to dim two magnitudes, or to about one-sixth of its original brightness.

    "V1674 Her at 1.1 days is on an extreme end of an already extreme end, so it earns the title of the fastest nova," Williams said at the news conference last week.

    A newly released pair of images by Williams and her team depicts just how drastic that pulsating change in brightness was between July 2, 2021 and July 6, 2021. 

    V1674 Hercules, currently the fastest nova on record, fades dramatically across four days from July 2, 2021 to July 6, 2021.

    Unlike supernovas which completely destroy a star in violent explosions, classical novas such as V1674 Hercules leave the host stars intact and fully capable of putting on multiple shows, giving astronomers many opportunities to study how the system works.

    In a broad brush, astronomers say studying the behavior and evolution of V1674 Hercules could also shed light on how galaxies evolve across eons, since the material that novas blast out into surrounding space is eventually recycled by nearby galaxies to feed the next generation of stars and planets.

    John Herrington Aliens

    Ex-US Sec. of Energy: ‘Aliens Are Real & I’ve Seen Them’; Briefed On UFOs In Underground Base

    No wonder the whole world will unite if tomorrow Earth is invaded by aliens. It may sound like science fiction but the probability of it cannot be denied. There are many accounts of encountering non-human beings but such stories are often neglected due to a lack of strong evidence. However, things become different when a government itself supports such claims. Some of them were Gen. Douglas McArthur, Gen. George Marshall, Werner Von Braun, President Ronald Reagan, Gen. Nathan Twining, Gen. Walter Bedell Smith, Dr. Carl Gustav Jung, and many others.

    Former US President Ronald Reagan expressed his concern about an alien invasion in his speeches from 1985 to 1988. In one of his speeches to the UN, he said: “What if all of us in the world were threatened by an outer power, from outer space, from another planet? We would all of a sudden find out that we didn’t have any differences at all.” None of the presidential aides, speechwriters, and handlers liked what he said. Besides, it never appeared on original drafts. Despite it, Reagan continued adding it subtly.

    In 1982, there was a special screening of the movie “ET: The Extra-Terrestrial” at the White House. During the screening, President Reagan whispered to Steven Spielberg that everything depicted in the film was real. Spielberg confirmed this during an interview with Quint (also known as Eric Vespe).

    Spielberg said: “No, he wasn’t ushered out of the room. He was the President of the United States! Nobody could usher Ronald Reagan out of the room! It was in the White House screening room and Reagan got up to thank me for bringing the film to show the President, the First Lady, and all of their guests, which included Sandra Day O’Connor in her first week as a Justice of the Supreme Court, and it included some astronauts… I think Neil Armstrong was there, I’m not 100% certain, but it was an amazing, amazing evening.”

    Reagan was criticized for his bizarre comments on aliens, he was called an actor reading a script but the truth is that they were his own words. In the following years, many officials in the White House hinted at the presence of outer world life.

    One such interesting case is brought to light by the writer, producer, co-host of the podcast Need To Know, and former CNN correspondent Bryce Zabel. Mr. Bryce discovered the story of a Reagan administration cabinet member crying himself to sleep after being briefed on the truth about UFOs.

    John Herrington Aliens

     John Herrington, Former US Navy AS R&MA and served as the United States Secretary of Energy under Ronald Reagan during his second term.

    John Herrington saw Aliens

    Mr. Bryce was telling a story originally told by his friend Brent Friedman. According to him, Brent was a family friend of John S. Herrington, who served as Assistant Secretary of the Navy and Secretary of Energy in the Reagan Administration. Herrington “had Brent drive his car across the country in 1981 because he had just taken a position in the Reagan administration.” This is where Herrington allegedly told this story to Friedman. (Source)

    Friedman said: “A good family friend of ours, when I was just getting out of high school, was working at a very high level in the Reagan administration. One night, he took me aside and was telling me some of the things he was doing in the government. He was going to get us a White House tour and everything and ended up telling me some pretty shattering stories.

    And in particular, he knew that I had always been into science fiction and fantasy and comic books and very casually just threw out there that aliens were real. They’re here, and I’ve seen them. The story goes on to much greater detail because at the time, I was just absolutely shocked. And this is a person I grew up with and I completely trusted, and he just rocked my world.”

    The same story is cited in the book “A.D. After Disclosure: When the Government Finally Reveals the Truth About Alien Contact” by Bryce Zabel and Richard Dolan:

    In addition to Sauder’s well-documented research, there are other tantalizing links to the underground world. One, for example, concerns an assistant secretary to a branch of the armed forces in a new Republican administration. This person told a family friend that he had been ‘briefed’ for some eight weeks at an underground facility outside of Washington.”

    When asked the purpose of the briefing, this highly-positioned man, who went on to become a cabinet secretary, said: “There is intelligent life in the universe. It’s here. And I’ve seen it.” The man said that the information he had been given caused him to cry himself to sleep for a number of nights. The reason, he told his shocked listener, was that he had children. “This is not the kind of world I thought they’d grow up in.

    What kinds of things are going on that require months-long briefings in underground facilities and cause grown men to cry? The cabinet secretary told the family friend that aliens were just the ‘tip of the iceberg’ in terms of mind-blowing revelations. It is clear, then, that large underground facilities not only are real, but are connected in some way with the reality of ETs or ‘Others’ here on Earth

    The claims of non-human intelligence living with us are not new and have been told by more than a dozen of government officials.

    • The Honorable Paul Hellyer (1923-2021), former Canadian Minister of Defense said extraterrestrials have been visiting our planet for thousands of years and it is likely that at least two of them are working with the U.S. government and sharing their highly-advanced technologies with humans.

    Hellyer stated that “aliens are living among us and that it is likely at least two of them are working with the U.S. government.” More specifically, Hellyer announced that at least four species of extraterrestrials had been visiting Earth for thousands of years. According to Huffington Post Canada, he also stated that some extraterrestrials originate from the “Zeta Reticuli, the Pleiades, Orion, Andromeda, and Altair star systems” and “may have different agendas.”

    • In December 2020, Haim Eshed, a retired Israeli general and former head of the Israeli Defense Ministry’s space directorate gained attention for making controversial claims about extraterrestrial life and alleged secret collaborations between humans and aliens. He stated that aliens and the U.S. government had reached some type of deal to stay quiet about their experiments on Earth and secret facilities on Mars.

    In his claims, Mr. Eshed said ETs exist and monitor our nuclear capabilities. There is a “Galactic Federation,” and the alien species with whom humanity will contact is “Grey.” According to him, Earth is their Petri dish, and they are also trying to understand the whole fabric of the universe. He further stated that some of the smaller UFOs are robots/AI, consciousness is present after death, and humans have anti-gravity technology but it is still classified.

    • Jim Semivan, a former CIA officer has recently made a shocking statement, saying “there’s a whole other reality that surrounds us that we just simply don’t have the ability to see or interact with. There’s an entity out there! There’s some kind of non-human intelligence that’s living with us on this planet!”

    “I think they mention that the phenomenon is a natural part of our universe, and we’re living in it but we don’t recognize it. The same way that insects and animals don’t recognize the human universe. A cat and a dog could be running through a library, but they don’t have the faintest idea what the books are all about and what libraries are all about. We might be walking through our existence and there’s a whole other reality that surrounds us that we just simply don’t have the ability to see or interact with.”

    “It seems to be peeking inside our little consensus reality. As I explained to somebody once, it comes close, it teases us, it cajoles us, it lies to us, but you can never take it home to meet the parents. It won’t allow you to do that. There’s no formal introduction. Add on top that there’s no ontology, which is just a fancy word, it basically means there’s no structure to even discuss this. We don’t have a common lexicon. Somebody said we have dots but no connections. I don’t even think we have dots.”

    Cassini mission finds key ingredient for life at Saturn's moon Enceladus

    Data from the retired NASA mission has revealed phosphorus, a building block for DNA, in the icy moon's subsurface ocean.

    By 

    Data from NASA's Cassini mission has revealed a key building block for life in the subsurface ocean of Saturn's icy moon Enceladus.

    Enceladus is known for its energetic geysers, as water from the ocean beneath the moon's icy crust erupts and spews out material into space.

    The Cassini mission studied Saturn and its icy moons from 2004 - 2017, before making a controlled descent into Saturn's atmosphere, where the spacecraft was purposely destroyed.

    The reason it couldn't be left in orbit around Saturn is because some of Saturn's major moons - like Titan and Enceladus - are considered to have prime conditions that could support the emergence of life.

    Not wanting to risk contamination, NASA scientists decided to end the mission by destroying the Cassini spacecraft.

    One of the key bodies in the search for signs of life within our Solar System is Enceladus, due to the liquid water that exists beneath its frozen exterior.

    As we know water is a key ingredient for life on Earth, Enceladus's liquid subsurface ocean makes it a prime target.

    During its mission, the Cassini spacecraft made several dives through plumes erupting from deep inside Enceladus and found the moon's ice grains contain a wealth of minerals and organic compounds that are associated with life as we know it.

    Now, scientists studying Cassini data have discovered phosphorus, which is a building block for DNA and is found in the bones of mammals, cell membranes and plankton in our ocea

    "We previously found that Enceladus’ ocean is rich in a variety of organic compounds," says Frank Postberg of the Freie Universität Berlin, Germany, who led the new study, which has been published in the journal Nature.

    "But now, this new result reveals the clear chemical signature of substantial amounts of phosphorus salts inside icy particles ejected into space by the small moon’s plume. It’s the first time this essential element has been discovered in an ocean beyond Earth."

    To make the discovery, the team studied Cassini data: specifically that collected by the spacecraft's Cosmic Dust Analyzer instrument when it sampled particles of ice from Enceladus found in Saturn's E ring.

    They found high concentrations of sodium phosphates – molecules of chemically bound sodium, oxygen, hydrogen, and phosphorus – inside some ice grains.

    Lab tests found that Enceladus’s ocean contains phosphorus in concentrations of at least 100 times that of Earth's oceans.

    "High phosphate concentrations are a result of interactions between carbonate-rich liquid water and rocky minerals on Enceladus’ ocean floor and may also occur on a number of other ocean worlds," says co-investigator Christopher Glein of the Southwest Research Institute in San Antonio, Texas.

    "This key ingredient could be abundant enough to potentially support life in Enceladus’ ocean; this is a stunning discovery for astrobiology."

    However, the study authors are keen for caution when interpreting these results.

    "Having the ingredients is necessary, but they may not be sufficient for an extraterrestrial environment to host life," says Glein.

    "Whether life could have originated in Enceladus’ ocean remains an open question."

    UFO Mystery: Controversy Swirls Around Report of Retrieved 'Craft'

    By ADAM DODD, THE CONVERSATION

    Grainy Image Of UFO

    Claims the US government has secretly retrieved crashed alien spacecraft and their non-human occupants are hardly new. They are firmly entrenched in post-war American UFO lore and conspiracy theory, inspiring the most famous narrative in ufology: the "Roswell incident".

    Now, however, journalists Leslie Kean and Ralph Blumenthal have injected fresh vigor into these aging claims – apparently with the Pentagon's approval.

    In an article for science and technology news site The Debrief, they report the US government, its allies, and defense contractors have retrieved multiple craft of non-human origin, along with the occupants' bodies.

    Additionally, they report this information has been illegally withheld from US Congress, the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office established by the US Department of Defense in 2022 to look into UFOs, and the public.

    What are the claims?

    The primary source for the new claims is former US intelligence official David Grusch.

    Grusch's credentials, verified by Kean and Blumenthal, are impressive. He is a veteran of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency and the National Reconnaissance Office. He represented both organizations on the US government's task force studying unidentified aerial phenomena (the official term for UFOs).

    Unidentified aerial phenomena, such as this video taken by a US Navy pilot released in 2020, have been a source of renewed interest in recent years.
    (United States Navy/Public Domain/Wikimedia Commons)

    Grusch says the retrieved materials are: "of exotic origin (non-human intelligence, whether extraterrestrial or unknown origin) based on the vehicle morphologies and material science testing and the possession of unique atomic arrangements and radiological signatures."

    Grusch's claims are supported by Jonathan Grey, who works for the National Air and Space Intelligence Center, where he focuses on analysis of unidentified aerial phenomena.

    Grey told Kean and Blumenthal: "The non-human intelligence phenomenon is real. We are not alone […] Retrievals of this kind are not limited to the United States."

    How credible are the claims?

    Kean and Blumenthal are credible and accomplished reporters on UFOs.

    In 2017, writing with Helene Cooper for the The New York Times, they revealed a secret US$22 million Pentagon UFO research program. That article did much to initiate a wider rethinking about UFOs, avoiding stereotypes, stigma, and sensationalism.

    Most of the subsequent "UFO turn" in US defense policy and public discourse has focused on images and eyewitness testimony of anomalous airborne objects.

    Now, Kean and Blumenthal may have brought anomalous objects themselves – and even their supposed non-human occupants – into the conversation.

    Shortly after the Debrief article, Australian journalist Ross Coulthart's interview with Grusch appeared on US news network News Nation. Former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Intelligence, Christopher Mellon, has also published an article in Politico calling for greater transparency.

    This looks a lot like an orchestrated effort to convince the public (and US Congress) something much more substantial than "things in the sky we can't explain" is going on.

    Approved by the Pentagon?

    Grusch seems to have followed Pentagon protocol in publishing his information.

    Kean and Blumenthal write Grusch: "provided the Defense Office of Prepublication and Security Review at the Department of Defense with the information he intended to disclose to us. His on-the-record statements were all "cleared for open publication" on April 4 and 6, 2023, in documents provided to us."

    What does that mean?

    Prepublication and Security Review is how the Pentagon confirms information proposed for public release is reviewed to ensure compliance with established national and Department of Defense policies, and to determine it: "contains no classified, controlled unclassified, export-controlled, or operational security related information."

    If Grusch's information is true, it is surely both "classified" and "operational security related".

    So why would the Pentagon approve its publication?

    If Grusch's information is false, it would probably not qualify as classified or operational security related. But this raises another question: why would the Pentagon approve the publication of an unfounded conspiracy theory about itself?

    Doing so would likely mislead the public, journalists, and Congress. It would also undermine the Pentagon's own attempt to understand the unidentified aerial phenomena problem: the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office.

    An official denial

    Indeed, the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office told News Nation it:
    "has not discovered any verifiable information to substantiate claims that any programs regarding the possession or reverse-engineering of extraterrestrial materials have existed in the past or exist currently."

    Grusch has an explanation for this apparent ignorance.

    When it comes to unidentified aerial phenomena investigations, he says, the US government's left hand doesn't know what its right is doing, with: "multiple agencies nesting [unidentified aerial phenomena] activities in conventional secret access programs without appropriate reporting to various oversight authorities."

    Timothy Good's classic 1987 exploration of UFO investigations, Above Top Secret, described similar bureaucracy.

    Nested activities and segregated knowledge

    The notion of "nested" unidentified aerial phenomena activities, segregating knowledge within vast bureaucracies, is partly what makes Grusch's claims both intriguing and (for now) unverifiable.

    If this is the case, organizations focusing on unidentified aerial phenomena, such as the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office, may operate in earnest and report transparently on the best information they have. Yet they may also be deprived of information essential to their activities.

    This would make them little more than PR fronts, designed to create the impression of meaningful action.

    In the absence of direct experience of unidentified aerial phenomena, most of us rely on information about them to form our beliefs. Scrutinizing how this information is produced and distributed is essential.

    US government activity in this area will continue. Congressman James Comer, chair of the House Oversight Committee, has said he will hold a hearing on UFOs in response to Grusch's allegations.The Conversation

    NASA Says ‘UFO’ Spotted Crashing in Las Vegas Was a Small Meteor; Cops Say They Hope to Find Aliens

    After police and citizens saw a bright meteor in the sky, cops unsuccessfully stalked what witnesses said were beings with glowing eyes nearly 10 feet tall.
    By Tim 
    SCREENCAPTURE FROM LAS VEGAS POLICE BODY CAMERA FOOTAGE; RED CIRCLE DRAWN BY MOTHERBOARD STAFF.

    NASA’s planetary defense officer, Lindley Johnson, tells Motherboard that a green fireball observed last month by, among others, a Las Vegas police officer was likely a bright meteor less than a meter in size and certainly not a UFO that fell in anyone’s backyard.

    Las Vegas cops, meanwhile, tell Motherboard that while they didn’t find aliens in a manhunt last month, they do hope to do so in the future, citing the city’s proximity to Area 51.

    At issue here is footage that went wildly viral over the weekend depicting the aftermath of a UFO sighting. Last month, as reported by KLAS, a man called the Las Vegas police to report something startling: After an object fell from the sky, he and his family saw a non-human being at least eight feet tall in their backyard.

    “It has big eyes and it’s looking at us,” the man told a 911 dispatcher.

    Body camera footage documenting the police response to the call shows that officers on the scene found the report credible. The first of two videos released in response to records requests show officers responding to the call in the early morning hours of May 1. As they pull up to a house, four people are on a lawn. The footage went viral over the weekend after the KLAS report.

    https://youtu.be/YWGOkut_-Xw

    “Me and him saw it,” says one man. 

    “It was like a big creature,” says another. “Around 10 feet tall.”

    A police officer immediately reassures him that he finds their story credible.

    “I’m not gonna BS you guys,” he says. “One of my partners saw something fall out of the sky, too.”

    Footage captured by another police officer’s body camera earlier that night in the same area indeed appears to show a glowing green orb falling out of the sky. This object was recorded in the American Meteor Society’s fireball logs, but not those of NASA’s Center for Near Earth Object Studies, or CNEOS. While discrepancies like this are the sort of thing that fuels conspiracy theories about NASA coverups, Johnson, the planetary defense officer, offered a straightforward explanation, saying, “The CNEOS website only captures reports for objects that are estimated to have exceeded 1 meter in size based on the observed total energy released—in other words natural objects which were large enough to be categorized as asteroids prior to entering Earth’s atmosphere.”

    Based on its observed speed, he added, it would have been high in the atmosphere and hundreds of miles away from Las Vegas at the time it was spotted. “So nothing from the meteor landed in anyone’s backyard in Vegas,” he said.

    Unaware of all this, police responding to the 911 call promptly and apparently conscientiously searched the family’s backyard; 16 minutes of this footage was redacted because, police told Motherboard, it was taken on private property. (They assured Motherboard that no UFO was found.) When the footage resumes, the officer is assuring witnesses that even though he hasn’t found a UFO he finds their report credible, noting that while he was on a call at a nearby Target, one of his partners had seen what she thought was a shooting star in the sky—exactly at the same time the eyewitnesses had seen a mysterious object fall from the heavens.

    More body camera footage from another officer reveals that an extensive search took place, with the officer, after asking a witness if he’d seen which way the aliens went, flagging down a car to ask the occupants to ask if they’d seen a UFO or tall, non-human beings.

    “Hey, this might sound like a really dumb question,” he says, “but did you guys see anything fall out of the sky?”

    The people in the car say they did not see anything.

    “We got a call and one of my partners actually said that they saw it, too,” the officer says before explaining that their neighbors had described a UFO crashing and urging them to call 911 if they saw an alien. “They said they saw something with eight to nine feet, no clothes, green-colored men, not human, with, like, the eyes were glowing and it was not a human being.”

    As the officers were departing the scene, one of the witnesses said he was uneasy spending the night at home after what he’d seen. 

    “I’m going to a hotel, man,” he said.

    Last week, one of the witnesses released a video describing his experiences titled “I had aliens in my backyard.”

    Mars Rover Sends a Stunning Panorama of the Red Planet Home to Earth

    You can see rover tracks nearby and forbidding mountains in the distance.

     It takes a lot of work to send a postcard from Mars.

    NASA’s Curiosity Rover recently pointed its navigation cameras back the way it had come to capture two panoramic photos of the rover’s tracks leading out of Marker Band Valley. Curiosity imaging team members created a composite of the images, which was released Monday

    You can still get a hint that it’s a composite: The giveaway is in the drastically different angles of the shadows on each side of the image. One panorama shows a mid-morning view, while the other shows late afternoon — both timed to take advantage of the most dramatic natural lighting and the dark, deep shadows of Martian winter.

    The Marker Band Valley gets its name from a thin, dark, and surprisingly tough layer of rock that runs along the valley’s walls. Scientists aren’t sure exactly what the marker band is made of because the frustratingly tough rock has resisted all of Curiosity’s efforts to drill out a sample. But it’s home to surprising traces of an ancient lake in an area that mission planners expected to have been dry even during Mars’s warmer, wetter past, Curiosity found layers of rippled rock, still bearing the texture left behind by waves in an ancient lake.

    Billions of years ago, waves in an ancient lake carved these ripples into the lake bottom, and now they’re preserved in rock.

    NASA

    If you want to send home a panoramic view from Mars, though, it’s not quite as easy as clicking the panorama option on your phone’s camera and then panning around the horizon (yet). Combined, the two images took about 15 minutes to capture, and each one arrived on Earth as five individual photos, which NASA teams had to carefully stitch together using computer software.

    Next, they carefully blended the two panoramas together. And because Curiosity’s navigation camera only takes photos in black and white, NASA decided to add a filter; they carefully colorized both images, using a deep blue sky for the morning shot and a cheery yellow for the afternoon.

    color image of a valley on Mars, with yellow sky on the left and blue sky on the right, and a rover ...

    This panorama is actually ten separate photos, carefully stitched together and with false color added.

    NASA

    The result is a stunning postcard from Gale Crater, where Curiosity has been exploring since 2012. Curiosity’s tracks in the Martian sand lead back toward a valley called Marker Band Valley, which is home to an ancient lakebed. In the far background, you can see the edge of Gale Crater, 25 miles away and receding into the distance as Curiosity scales Mount Sharp. Beyond the crater’s rim, clear winter skies afford a rare view of an even more distant mountain, 75 miles away from the rover.

    Illustration from Jules Verne's

    Jules Verne envisioned building a projectile for space travel in "From the Earth to the Moon."
    (E.A. Bayard via Scribner, Armstrong / Smithsonian)

    How Science Fiction Sparked Our Flights to the Final Frontier

    The commercial spaceflight revolution didn’t begin with Elon Musk. Or with Jeff Bezos, or Richard Branson, or any of the other billionaires who’ve spent a fortune on the final frontier over the past 20 years.

    Would you believe it began with Jules Verne in the 1860s?

    That’s the perspective taken by Jeffrey Manber, one of the pioneers of the 21st-century spaceflight revolution, in a book tracing the roots of private-sector spaceflight to the French novelist.

    “The first realistic steps taken in rocket development were because of a French science-fiction book,” Manber says in the latest episode of the Fiction Science podcast. “And that’s an underlying theme, in that we really needed a commercial ecosystem to get going. It’s not a government decree.”

    The influence of Verne’s classic spaceflight novel, “From the Earth to the Moon,” continues to the present day: For example, when Bezos built the headquarters for his Blue Origin rocket venture, he brought in a Verne-inspired, Victorian-style rocket ship (complete with a cushy cockpit) to serve as the centerpiece of the building’s lobby.

    Manber also pays tribute to Jules Verne in the title of his book series: “From the Earth to Mars.” He’s writing the story chapter by chapter, and the first two chapters recently came out as a 106-page volume.

    Verne’s story resonated with Manber for several reasons: First, the heroes of the story aren’t government employees, but members of a a group called the Baltimore Gun Club. They raise the money to build a giant gun as well as a projectile big enough for three club members to climb inside. A blastoff from Florida sends the trio on a thrilling ride to the moon and back, ending with a Pacific Ocean splashdown.

    Manber loves the “eerie similarities” to NASA’s Apollo moon missions, but he’s even more impressed by the tale’s impact on early rocketeers.

    Russian rocket scientist Konstantin Tsiolkovsky was so taken by the tale that he looked into whether a giant gun could actually fire a spaceship to the moon. He determined that it couldn’t, but went on to work out what’s now known as the Tsiolkovsky rocket equation. Tsiolkovsky also came up with the idea of using multistage rockets, with liquid oxygen and hydrogen as an option for propellants.

    “From the Earth to Mars: The Surprising History of the Rocket Pioneers Who Launched Humanity Into Space,” by Jeffrey Manber.
    (Multiverse Media)

    In his book, Manber traces the cross-fertilization that took place between Russian and German rocketeers, as well as between those rocketeers and science-fiction writers. For example, German rocket scientist Hermann Oberth collaborated with famed filmmaker Fritz Lang on a 1929 movie called “The Woman in the Moon,” based on Oberth’s ideas as well as a story written by Lang’s wife, Thea von Harbou. (You can watch the full movie on the Internet Archive, but skip the first 90 minutes to get to the good stuff.)

    Once again, the connections between fiction and reality are eerie: During the making of the movie, Lang invented the second-by-second countdown as a device to heighten the drama of a rocket launch. He even tried to film an actual rocket launch for a scene in the movie. That idea fizzled out — but years after the movie was released, the Nazis recruited Oberth along with other technical advisers to work on their V-2 missile program. (They also banned showings of the movie and destroyed Lang’s rocket models, for fear they would expose secrets.)

    “You can trace that to the V-2,” Manber said.

    The first installment of “From the Earth to Mars” ends before the Nazis and the V-2 enter the picture. But future installments will address that dark chapter as well as the development of government-led space programs in Russia, the U.S. and China.

    “I want people to know what our roots are, and it’s going to keep going all the way to the present,” Manber said.

    Fast-forward to the future

    Some of the narrative will surely draw upon Manber’s decades of personal experience in space commercialization. As the head of a company called MirCorp, he basically turned Russia’s Mir space station into a privately financed operation during its final days in 2000. A couple of years later, he came oh-so-close to sending boy-band singer Lance Bass to the International Space Station.

    Manber was more successful with the space venture that followed, Nanoracks, which blazed a trail for commercial research and satellite deployment on the space station. Nanoracks and its current parent company, Voyager Space, arranged to have the Bishop Airlock added to the space station in 2021, marking another milestone for commercial space development. Today, Voyager Space and Nanoracks are part of an industry team that’s developing a commercial space station called Starlab with backing from NASA.

    Manber has eased back on his corporate responsibilities — but last month, he was awarded NASA’s Distinguished Public Service Medal for “developing the foundation for the nascent commercial economy” in low Earth orbit through his work at MirCorp and Nanoracks. “I can take some solace that in space, with what we were handed, we’ve taken it and passed it along in better shape,” he said.

    So, what about the next chapters in the real-life space saga? Manber offered a few predictions about the twists that are likely to lie ahead on the path from the Earth to Mars:

    • When will humans set foot on Mars? “I am a very cautious human being,” Manber said. “My cautious answer will be, I finally believe we will return to the moon and go on to Mars sooner than the pessimists believe.” But SpaceX and its CEO, Elon Musk, could force a radical change in Manber’s calculations. “I’ll put it to you this way,” he said. “If he gets Starship going in the next year or two, we’re going to Mars sooner than you and I think.”
    • If SpaceX can get its Starship super-rocket through testing and into operation, that would be a game-changer, Manber said. “In fact, it’s so much of a game-changer, I have concerns about monopolistic behavior,” he said. “I didn’t fight for 30, 40 years to make this a commercial marketplace, or a competition, to replace one single point with another, which would be SpaceX. … I like the dream. I like all that. But I want competition.”
    • Manber said U.S.-Chinese space cooperation seems more likely, despite longstanding limits on technological ties. “I understand very well the tensions in the South China Sea, the economic tensions, but there’s always that room for that thing called commercial,” he said. “I see no reason today, 2023, that we should not be doing commercial work in space with the Chinese.”
    • The consequences of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine have shaken Manber’s faith in international space cooperation. U.S.-Russian cooperation is continuing on the International Space Station, but Manber doubts that will carry over to future projects. “Everything I worked on grinds to a halt, except for the ISS,” he said.

    Is there anyone who can take Jules Verne’s place for inspiring the next generation of innovators? Check out the original version of this report on Cosmic Log for Manber’s reading recommendations.

    Is America hiding Alien technology? – Indian Media covers the Grusch story

    Hiding UFOs

    In the unending stretch of the cosmos, secrets are born and concealed. Among these mysteries, the question of the existence of extraterrestrial life has long sparked intrigue and debate. The universe, sprawling across 93 billion light years and cradling approximately two trillion galaxies, is a treasure trove of infinite possibilities. Yet, despite its vastness, the question persists: Are we alone?

    Since time immemorial, the human species has reported enigmatic sightings of inexplicable lights and flying objects. The first known mention dates back to 440 BCE in ancient Egypt, when scribes reported observing fiery discs floating in the skies. Interestingly, even 10,000-year-old rock paintings found in India’s Bastar region depict UFO-like entities.

    VIDEO: Gravitas Plus:

    • Is America hiding Alien technology?

    Despite these historical records, the concrete evidence of otherworldly beings remains elusive. However, recent claims made by an ex-U.S intelligence official, David Charles Grusch, have rekindled this perennial debate.

    Grusch, a combat veteran of Afghanistan and an ex-member of the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) task force, asserts that the U.S. is harboring intact and partially intact vehicles of non-human origin. Moreover, Jonathan Gray, another U.S Intel official working at the National Air and Space Intelligence Center, has confirmed these allegations, suggesting that we are not alone.

    The credibility of these claims is underpinned by Grusch’s formidable credentials. Serving on the UAP task force from 2019 to 2021 as a representative of the National Reconnaissance Office, his reputation is considered solid within intelligence circles. His whistleblowing has led to the U.S House of Representatives planning an oversight committee to investigate these assertions.

    This isn’t the first time the U.S. government has probed the UFO phenomena. Past endeavors include Project Blue Book, Project Grudge, and Project Serpo. These investigations, although suspended or concluded without definitive answers, have nonetheless strengthened the idea that UFOs exist.

    Worldwide, other nations have also delved into the enigma of extraterrestrial life, from the United Kingdom’s secret studies to the Soviet Union’s 13-year operation, Institute 22. All these probes, while not conclusively determining the origin of UFOs, concur on their existence.

    Yet, in spite of the global fascination, the source of these UFOs remains shrouded in mystery. Some theories suggest they’re controlled by extraterrestrial beings with no interest in human contact, while others propose they’re human-made, leveraging unknown laws of physics.

    Today, the quest for truth continues. If Grusch’s claims hold water, it could potentially turn our understanding of the cosmos upside down. As the U.S. House of Representatives prepares to delve deeper into these allegations, we might be on the brink of a revelation.

    In the vast expanse of the universe, the possibility of other civilizations existing seems less like fiction and more like a hidden truth waiting to be discovered. Whether these elusive entities are cosmic neighbors or mere figments of our collective imagination, the human yearning for knowledge and the thrill of the unknown will continue to drive our quest for answers.

    The reality of alien existence, whether proven or disproven, will bring a seismic shift in our understanding of life and our place in the universe. The clock is ticking, and perhaps, we are on the precipice of an ontological shock that could redefine our perception of the cosmos forever.

    ex-cia John Ramirez ufo

    Ex-CIA Officer On UFOs & Aliens: Says ‘They Are Showing Up In 2027’

    In the 1940s, the CIA first became involved in UFOs. Since then, a number of former US military personnel and CIA officers have advanced UFOlogy by making stunning remarks. Former CIA and US military officials including R. James Woolsey, John Brennan, Jim Semivan, Lue Elizondo, and others have described how the existence of reality all around us that we are unable to perceive could be a major aspect of the UFO phenomenon.

    Since 2021, John Ramirez, who spent 25 years in the CIA, has been providing truthful insights into the UAPs that he learned in his career. He is a highly intelligent individual who has an immense amount of knowledge and experience regarding the U.S. intelligence apparatus and the UAP subject. He has made an impressive social media presence after he revealed many UAP-related mysteries that had never been discussed in public by any government official.

    CIA retired John Ramirez, who specialized in ballistic missile defense systems, worked for the CIA from 1984 to 2009, holding positions in the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the Directorate of Science and Technology, and the Directorate of Intelligence. He attained GS-15 grade, which indicates that he worked for the agency in a relatively senior capacity.

    His appearance on the highly acclaimed Witness Citizen podcast on October 17, 2021 created a huge burst in the UFO community. Later, Ramirez made an appearance on Project Unity, where he delivered a series of slides to assist researchers in navigating the FOIA process. Ramirez was particularly helpful in identifying the appropriate agencies to contact when requesting particular types of information.

    The slides, which are available online, also include historical information about UFOs and current statements made by prominent former U.S. intelligence officials, including John Ratcliffe, a former director of national intelligence. He stated a schematic on how to investigate a UFO in the CIA style:

    Establish a group to investigate and evaluate sightings;
    Determine the objectives of your investigation;
    Consult with experts;
    Create a reporting system to organize incoming cases;
    Eliminate false positives;
    Develop a methodology to identify common aircraft and other aerial phenomena often mistaken for UFOs;
    Examine witness documentation;
    Conduct controlled experiments;
    Gather and test physical and forensics evidence and Discourage false reporting.

    Ramirez made assumptions regarding the current UFO disclosure procedure, and it appears that his opinions may have been influenced by members of the intelligence community, either current or former, or perhaps by individuals connected to the Department of Defense. During his interview with Project Unity, Ramirez claimed that the US government does not currently discuss the UFO craft’s occupants. This is a significant comment from Ramirez, who has asserted his opinion that UFOs may indeed represent a form of non-human intelligence.

    John Ramirez

    John Ramirez retired from the agency recently as an officer with GS-15 status.

    Ramirez is not the first CIA agent to make the assertion that UFOs might be non-human intelligence. John Brennan, a former CIA director, suggested that UFOs might be “a different form of life.” Brennan said: “You try to ensure that you have as much data as possible in terms of visuals and also different types of maybe technical collection of sensors that you have at the time. (Source)

    Also, I believe, it’s important to reach out into other environments and find out, were there any type of weather phenomena at that time that might have, in fact, created the appearance of the phenomenon that you’re looking at? Were there some things that were happening on the ground, or other types of phenomena that could help explain what seems to be quite a mystery as far as what is there? You really have to approach it with an open mind, but get as much data as possible and get as much expertise as possible brought to bear.”

    Ramirez made an intriguing statement in response to the rumor that the US government is reluctant to discuss the potential UFO occupants. The U.S. Air Force may be partially to blame for this current stance, according to Ramirez. However, not for obvious reasons. He commented:

    “The air force and their exploitation of that type of technology made a mess of things, as when people see the triangular craft, and they’re not flying in space but in our atmosphere, it points to the fact that we know what the triangles are and we want people to think they’re seeing UFOs because then people won’t know exactly what they’re seeing.”

    Some speculated that Ramirez suggests that the USAF may be responsible for sightings of triangular aircraft, which some have dubbed the TR3B. On the Joe Rogan Experience, Tom Delonge implied that the United States government owned such vessels, but also said that some of them belonged to other intelligence. Delonge claimed that triangle-shaped craft, assuming they contain tail fins, symbolize human technology.

    According to a member of the US House of Representatives Tim Burchett, it may all have started after the government recovered crashed alien vehicles. During an interview for On Balance With Leland Vittert, Burchett was asked about the Navy’s possession of more videos of UFOs that it is not willing to release to the public for reasons of National Security.

    If anti-gravitic crafts exist, then potentially, such technology will be disclosed throughout the disclosure process. Former senator Harry Reid has already asserted that Lockheed Martin may have UFO materials, thus perhaps technology does exist. According to Lue Elizondo, the disclosure procedure and potential international collaboration (including with China) may lead to amazing technological advancements. (Source)

    Ross Coulthart, an investigative journalist, in his tweet shared a link to a YouTube video (which is now private), stating John Ramirez tells IUFOC the agency’s weird desk investigations into UAP never stopped from the 1940s. “These are ongoing programs from the very beginning. They are still there.” It’s “more than” just the Pentagon’s AAWSAP-AATIP. Check the below Twitter thread to understand the context Coulthart is trying to explain.

    “There for them to ask me questions. But it was very clear to me that AATIP was not the first of its kind effort. There was an organized effort back in the 80s to do exactly this as well. Now how far they got, I don’t know because what was told to me, verbatim,” Elizondo said.

    Ramirez also experienced what might be considered alien abduction-type experiences, including being placed on an examination table in a circular craft. Interestingly, a number of his counterparts in the CIA and NSA also had UFO experiences, he revealed. In his job related to missile defense, he became aware of times when Russian radar would detect unusual craft, and in one instance, he said they tried to lure a UAP into landing.

    Ramirez noted that CIA historian Gerald Haines wrote about the agency’s study of UFOs from 1947 through the 1990s, for a division that was initially called the Office of Scientific Intelligence. What was particularly intriguing to Ramirez is that the division had life sciences and medical people on staff, indicating possible interest in alien bodies.

    He also described how an Air Force pilot on the plane that flew near Kamchatka to monitor Russian tests observed a massive “milky white wall” of light flying toward him at 6,200 mph, though the Air Force assumed it was some kind of countermeasure by the Russians. Regarding the military sightings of “trans-medium” UAP like the Tic Tacs, Ramirez said he does not believe that Russia or any other foreign country has the capabilities to produce this kind of antigravity technology.

    Elizondo made these points in several interviews, but in this one, he was asked to elaborate on his comments about how our senses are reductive and limit our reality, and how this might be relevant to the phenomenon.

    In his interview with Project Unity, Ramirez opined that Humans are hybrids. According to him, Elizondo is unable to use the word “hybridization,” but the Pentagon employees are counting on him to do so eventually. Elizondo discussed the possibility that non-human intelligence have been in contact with humans for a very long time on the Theories of Everything podcast. This would imply that we have all forgotten about our own past, which would hide the possibility that we are hybrids of humans and extraterrestrials.

    Something is coming in 2027

    On Podcast UFO with Martin Wills, Ramirez claimed that government is aware of an impending event in 2027 which will reveal something quite significant so people are being prepared. He has been stating that there is a presence on Earth (which he refers demonic) who are just projecting their own belief systems to make us disbelieve in what we believe. Wills asked Ramirez what would happen if there was mass Landing? would we just simply prepare for a conflict or would we actually initiate something? (Source)

    Former CIA replied:

    I think the dialogue we have now in this country, even with the recent legislation that passed through the legislature and is on its way up to the president’s desk, is preparing the U.S population, and by extension the world population, for the reality that there is a presence here that we need to explain. If they show up and we continue to do what we did before in previous decades, there will be mass panic. However, if we understand that these are real and we have five years from 2022, or maybe now four years, if they come in 2027, for the US government to prepare the people about what is up there.

    In many ways, I think the word got out within the government that they’re showing up in 2027, and we better be prepared. If not, there’s going to be a lot of explaining to do. So, I think that dialogue has happened within certain areas inside the government, that we need to prepare.

    That’s why in 2017, that set a clock of 10 years, and why Lou Elizondo earlier in this year said, “Just find a hobby for five years, and it’ll all be out in five years,” and he said that this year, so that was 2027. I’ve heard 2027 in an official capacity, and I can’t reveal, so I would say that people in the government are aware of something happening, and there’s limited time, a few more years to prepare the people. That’s what’s wrapping up this acceleration from the previous seven decades of not even acknowledging it to now acknowledging it at a faster and faster pace.”

    A Day on Earth Used to Only Be 19 Hours

    On Earth, a single solar day lasts 24 hours. That is the time it takes for the Sun to return to the same place in the sky as the day before. The Moon, Earth’s only natural satellite, takes about 27 days to complete a single circuit around our planet and orbits at an average distance of 384,399 km (~238,854.5 mi). Since time immemorial, humans have kept track of the Sun, the Moon, and their sidereal and synodic periods. To the best of our knowledge, the orbital mechanics governing the Earth-Moon system have been the same, and we’ve come to take them for granted.

    But there was a time when the Moon orbited significantly closer to Earth, and the average day was much shorter than today. According to a recent study by a pair o researchers from China and Germany, an average day lasted about 19 hours for one billion years during the Proterozoic Epoch – a geological period during the Precambrian that lasted from 2.5 billion years to 541 million years ago. This demonstrates that rather than gradually increasing over time (as previously thought), the length of a day on Earth remained constant for an extended period.

    The study was conducted by Ross N. Mitchell, a Professor of geoscience at the CAS State Key Laboratory of Lithospheric Evolution at the Institute of Geology and Geophysics and the College of Earth and Planetary Sciences at the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Uwe Kirscher, a former at the University of Tübingen, Germany, and a current Research Fellow at The Institute for Geoscience Research at Curtin University, Australia. The paper that details their research, titled “Mid-Proterozoic day length stalled by tidal resonance,” recently appeared in Nature Geosciences.

    In past decades, geologists examined a special type of sedimentary rock that contains preserved layers from tidal mud flats. By counting the number of sedimentary layers caused by tidal fluctuations, they could determine the number of hours per day during previous geological periods. But such records are rare, and those examined were often disputed regarding their age. However, there is another method for estimating day length known as Cyclostratigraphy, which Mitchell and Kircher employed for their study.

    This geologic method examines rhythmic sedimentary layering to detect Milankovitch cycles, which describe how changes in the eccentricity and obliquity of Earth’s orbit affect its climate over time. In recent years, there has been a proliferation in the number of Milankovitch records that deal with the ancient past. In fact, over half the data concerning ancient geological periods has been obtained in just the past seven years. This allowed Mitchell and Kircher to test a previously-unproven theory. As Kirscher explained in a recent CAS press release:

    Two Milankovitch cycles, precession and obliquity, are related to the wobble and tilt of Earth’s rotation axis in space. The faster rotation of early Earth can therefore be detected in shorter precession and obliquity cycles in the past. Because of this, if in the past these two opposite forces were to have become equal to each other, such a tidal resonance would have caused Earth’s day length to stop changing and to have remained constant for some time.

    In short, this theory posits that day length may have remained at a constant value in the past for extended periods of time rather than gradually growing longer. A key factor in this is “solar atmospheric tides,” where the “push” of charged solar particles from the Sun (aka. solar wind) is related to the heating of our atmosphere during the daytime. This is similar to how lunar tides, caused by the “pull” of the Moon’s gravity, are related to the rise and fall of ocean levels. But whereas the Moon’s gravity has slowly slowed Earth’s rotation down, the Sun was responsible for speeding it up.

    While solar tides are not as strong as their lunar counterpart today, this may not have always been the case. When Earth was rotating faster in the past, the influence of the Moon’s gravitational pull would have been much weaker. When Mitchell and Kirscher examined the data compilation, they noted that between two to one billion years ago, Earth’s day length appears to have stopped its long-term increase and stopped at about 19 hours. According to Mitchell, this period is alternately known as “the billion years” or the “boring billion.”

    What is especially intriguing about the new result is how the “boring billion” occurred between the two largest rises in oxygen content in our atmosphere. These were the Great Oxidation Event, where photosynthetic bacteria dramatically increased the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere, and the Cryogenian period (aka. “Snowball Earth”) – a glacial period where the entire surface (or close to it) was covered in ice. If confirmed, these results indicate that the evolution of Earth’s rotation is related to the composition of its atmosphere.

    The study also supports the idea that longer days were needed before photosynthetic bacteria could produce enough oxygen to reach modern atmospheric levels (24%). However, this study’s main implication is how it alters astronomers perceptions of Earth’s rotation in the past (or “paleorotation”). For a long time, it has been theorized that the Moon gradually absorbed Earth’s rotational energy, slowing the planet down, boosting the Moon into a higher orbit, and creating a 24-hour day. But these results indicate there was a break in that process between 2 billion and 1 billion years ago. As Kirscher summarized:

    Most models of Earth’s rotation predict that day length was consistently shorter and shorter going back in time. Two Milankovitch cycles, precession, and obliquity, are related to the wobble and tilt of Earth’s rotation axis in space. The faster rotation of early Earth can therefore be detected in shorter precession and obliquity cycles in the past.

    Dr. Steven Greer: UFO whistleblowers drop bombshell on D.C. - Secrets Antarctica station, secret space program and more

    Two day ago, Dr. Steven Greer held a stunning UFO disclosure press event at Washington's D.C. press club. Led by renowned researchers, members of the military, defense contractors and former government officials, this conference revealed shocking testimony about the secrets of an Antarctica station, the secret space program, reverse engineered alien craft, and massive crimes and cover up. 

    Speakers: 
    Michael Herrera former US Marine who witnessed a (deep state) UFO in Indonesia See our article, dated: June 6, 2023 - Former Marine witnessed UFO being loaded with weapons by unmarked US forces in Indonesie 
    Steven Digma former US Army who witnessed a UFO he was not supposed to see that left him brain damaged as a result of an explosion and microwave pulse coming from the UFO. 
    Eric Hecker, Raytheon contractor worked at the Ice Cube Neutrino observatory at Antarctica from 2010-2011. The observatory constructed at the Amundsen–Scott South Pole Station in Antarctica. 
    Scientists bored 86 holes in the ice. Each hole is almost 2.5 kilometers deep and about 60 centimeters wide and contains 60 basketball-sized sensors, what they call DOMS. Totally there are 5160 sensors embedded in the ice which actually can transmit 2470 volt each. 
    The station do what they say, it is designed to look for point sources of neutrinos in the teraelectronvolt (TeV) range to explore the highest-energy astrophysical processes... but it does much more... 
    Eric Hecker states that this Antarctica station is a huge air traffic control power station that monitors all interstellar craft that be operated by humans as well as non-humans. 
    Besides, he says that the thousands of sensors located under the Antarctic ice, distributed over a cubic kilometer is effectively a direct energy weapon platform. 
    And according to Eric it also is used for faster than light communications for example to and from the secret space fleet, discovered by Gary McKinnon in 2002 by hacking United States military and NASA computers. 
    Eric also witnessed a powerful green laser on top of this facility beaming into the cosmos; he believes this is a secondary form of long range communications or defense system. 
    It should come as no surprise that Google Earth has covered the area in the center of Antarctica where the Ice Cube Neutrino observatory is located. 
    Like Steven Greer said: The biggest secret is not the extraterrestrial issue, it is the technology developed by the deep state through the capture and reverse engineering of alien craft over the years (The secret retrieval UFO program) and the use of this technology which is a threat to the national security. The deep state (cabal) is all running this, they are running all these UAPs and more including the secret space program. 
    The deep state is happy to take billions of your tax money, not only to fund their black (UFO/UAP) projects, but also to scare you into believing the aliens are a threat, eventually allowing them to launch a false flag alien invasion, with the aim of establishing a world government. 
    In the video below redacted host Clayton Morris walks us through the highlights of the UFO event including the live testimonies from the several speakers. (Watch the first 35 minutes of the video.)

    700,000-Year-Old Tools Found in Greece Rewrite History

    The rich historical tapestry of Greece has been dramatically expanded with the recent discovery of hunting tools dating back an astonishing 700,000 years. Unearthed in a coal mine in Megalopolis, these ancient stone tools have not only pushed back Greece's historical timeline by a staggering quarter of a million years but have also opened a window into the development of our ancient hominin ancestors before their migration to northern Europe.

    Megalopolis: Where Time Began

    The ancient Greek city of Megalopolis was located in Arcadia, a region in the central Peloponnese peninsula of Greece. The original settlement was founded in 371 BC by the Theban general Epaminondas, during the Peloponnesian War, to counter the power of Sparta and to support the independence of the smaller Greek city-states.

    Megalopolis shares the same sun-battered landscapes as Olympia, Mycenae and Pylos, each of which feature centrally in Greek mythology. Olympia, the home of the Olympic Games, housed the chief sacred site of the god Zeus, and Mycenae was the city of the legendary King Agamemnon who led the Greeks during the Trojan War. Pylos, was a centre of the Mycenaean civilization most famously ruled by King Nestor, and it featured in Homer's Iliad and Odyssey.

    But now, the recent discovery of very ancient stone tools in a coal mine are shadowing the nation's semi-mythological history, by revealing valuable secrets about the development of our ancient hominin ancestors, before they populated northern Europe.

    A Game Changing Discovery

    According to a report in Greek City Times the latest archaeological discoveries in Megalopolis are “game-changing.” In the oldest-known archaeological site in Greece, dating back approximately 700,000 years, not only did the archaeologists recover the remains of now extinct giant deer, elephants, hippopotamus, rhinoceros, and a macaque monkey, but they also found stone tools from the Lower Palaeolithic period (3.3 million to 300,000 years old).

    Used for butchering animals and chopping plants approximately 700,000 years ago, the still sharp stone flakes are suspected to have been manufactured by a Lower Palaeolithic Homo antecessor, considered a possible ancestor of both Neanderthals and modern humans. While this is yet to be confirmed, if hominin remains are discovered, the find pushes back Greece’s official archaeological record by up to 250,000 years.

    Until now, the oldest tools in Greece date back to around 500,000 years ago, and were discovered in the Petralona Cave, in the Chalkidiki region of northern Greece. These stone tools were unearthed alongside the fossilized remains of an ancient human skull, known as the Petralona Skull , and such a discovery would need to be made at the Megalopolis site to definitely date the new discoveries.

    Pushing Back Archaeological Timelines

    These new finds come after a 5-year-long project led by Professor Panagiotis Karkanas of the American School of Classical Studies in Athens , Eleni Panagopoulou from the Greek Ministry of Culture and Katerina Harvati, a professor of paleoanthropology at the University of Tübingen in Germany .

    An article in Breaking News said these “groundbreaking discoveries surpass any previously known archaeological record in Greece.” And, if the dating is confirmed, what these finds demand, effectively, is a rewriting of Greek archaeology with a new starting point at around 700,000 years ago.

    A Second Stunning Discovery

    In addition to this main discovery, the team of archaeologists explored a second site in the Megalopolis area where they found “the oldest Middle Palaeolithic remains ever found in Greece, dating back approximately 280,000 years.” In conclusion, the researchers said of this second discovery, that it suggests Greece played a significant role in stone industry developments throughout ancient Europe, “solidifying its position as a pivotal hub of ancient civilisation.” Furthermore, the researchers said this discovery further illustrates what is known about “hominin migrations to Europe and human evolution as a whole.”

    Megalopolis declined in importance following the rise of Macedon under Philip II and his son, Alexander the Great, and it finally lost its prominence during the Roman era, after which it faded into obscurity. Today, the ancient ruins of Megalopolis can still be visited, but these new archaeological discoveries extend well beyond the ancient city's history and architecture, providing new insights into Greece’s ancient past.

    RAYTHEON TECHNOLOGIES DELIVERS FULLY PORTABLE, COMBAT-READY LASER TO U.S. AIR FORCE

    Military contractor Raytheon Technologies has announced the delivery of a fully portable, combat-ready laser to the United States Air Force. This marks the fourth such delivery by Raytheon to the Air Force, with the latest laser said to be fully portable and immediately ready for deployment.

    “The new palletized laser weapon was the first 10-kilowatt laser built to U.S. military specifications in a stand-alone configuration that can be moved and mounted anywhere it’s needed,” explains a press release sent out by the company.

    Known internally as “H4,” the combat-ready laser is not only the fourth such weapon delivered by Raytheon to the Air Force but is the eighth overall such weapon that Raytheon has delivered to the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD).

    The Debrief has previously covered a number of similar combat laser weapons under development, including the company’s High Energy Laser Weapons System (HELWS) as well an entry from Lochheed-Martin dubbed the most powerful combat laser ever built. But this newest combat laser is the first to boast a readiness for immediate deployment alongside unprecedented portability. This means it can be attached to a wide range of vehicles used in combat situations and put into real-world combat use right away.

    Such versatility and readiness are significant since the 21st-century battlefield is continually changing with all kinds of new threats. Of course, the new laser, which is rated at 10 kW, isn’t the most powerful, but it is well-suited to protect forward forces against asymmetrical attacks primarily from the rapidly expanding use of low-cost drones.

    “Anywhere the Air Force sees a threat from drones, they now have four proven laser weapons that can be deployed to stop asymmetrical threats,” said Michael Hofle, senior director of High-Energy Lasers at Raytheon Technologies. “Whether it’s on a fixed location, a flatbed, or even a pickup, these laser weapons are compact, rugged, and ready to go.”

    “We’re proud to support the Air Force’s effort to provide this new tech to the personnel who need it in the field,” added Hofle, “who can trust and be confident in the system’s capabilities.”

    The press release also points out that the new laser weapon system “comprises a high-energy laser weapon module, a long-range EO/IR sensor that also serves as the beam director, thermal control, internal electrical power, and targeting software.”

    That same release notes that the laser system can be operated with a laptop and a video game-style controller and “can plug into a long list of existing air defense and command and control systems to provide a needed layer of defense.”

    The DOD is increasingly looking at combat lasers and other directed energy weapons like the microwave system known simply as “Thor’s Hammer” to address a number of emerging threats. The more powerful combat laser weapons under development range anywhere from 100 kW to 300 kW and are potentially capable of downing incoming missiles and possibly even enemy aircraft. But the most common threat posed to forces is the ever-expanding use of drones, simply because of their low cost and ease of use.

    There is also an inherent cost benefit to using lasers over conventional munitions, which is the only current option for downing incoming aerial threats, as their ammunition is simply light and, therefore, significantly cheaper than conventional ammunition.

    This cost-benefit was highlighted by the Israeli Ministry of Defense, which has deployed a laser system known as Iron Beam to complement its Iron Dome system that uses conventional rockets to down enemy drones, mortars, and missiles.

    “This is the world’s first energy-based weapons system that uses a laser to shoot down incoming UAVs, rockets & mortars at a cost of $3.50 per shot,” read a tweet by Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennet. Compared to the cost of an Iron Dome rocket, which some estimates say can cost as much as $150,000 a shot, the benefits of using lasers in combat are readily apparent.


    The announcement from Raytheon and the Air Force does not give a specific timeline for deployment of the H4, but based on the weapon’s portability and combat-ready status, it is likely to see action almost immediately.

    The Mysterious Las Vegas UFO Incident: “100 percent not human”

    On a quiet night at the end of April 2023, an unexpected phenomenon sent ripples through the stillness of Las Vegas, resulting in a thrilling narrative of UFO sightings and reported extraterrestrial encounters that has caught the attention of people across the globe. A series of unusual events unfurled, with witnesses and official recordings contributing to a story that feels more like an enthralling science fiction narrative than a regular news report.

    In the late evening hours of April 30, a police officer’s body camera recorded a peculiar, glowing green light streaking across the Nevada sky. This sighting wasn’t an isolated incident – at least 21 people from various locations, including California, Arizona, Utah, and Nevada, reported witnessing the same mysterious light, according to the American Meteor Society.

    Just around midnight on May 1, the extraordinary tale took an even stranger turn. A local resident, working on his car in his backyard, claimed to have experienced an event that shook him to his core. He described seeing a bright light falling from the sky, accompanied by a loud impact and a shockwave that temporarily blurred his surroundings. He recounted hearing what sounded like thousands of footsteps that abruptly ceased.

    But that wasn’t the climax of his harrowing encounter. The man reported seeing large, non-human entities in his backyard. According to his 911 call, he described these beings as around 8 to 10 feet tall, with large, shiny eyes, and big mouths – an image that couldn’t be anything but alien to him.

    Las Vegas police took the matter seriously, promptly responding to the 911 call. The responding officer’s bodycam footage corroborated the witness’s account, even capturing a potential physical evidence – a perfect circle in the man’s backyard, possibly left by the crashed unidentified object.

    VIDEO:

    As news of the incident spread, it gained the attention of George Knapp, a renowned journalist known for covering UFO-related stories. After several conversations with the involved family, Knapp stated that he didn’t sense any hoax or mischief at play. However, he admitted that the exact nature of the incident remains unclear, creating an intriguing puzzle that is yet to be solved.

    Further fueling the suspense, Sean Kirkpatrick, head of the Pentagon’s newly formed All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), gave recommendations at a recent NASA meeting about UFOs, indicating the government’s increased interest in such inexplicable occurrences.

    Despite the hard evidence, conjecture, and compelling narratives, authorities are still uncertain about what precisely occurred in Las Vegas that night. Nonetheless, the witness stands firm by his account, even as skeptics question his story.

    This riveting tale of potential extraterrestrial encounters reminds us of the vastness of the universe and the unanswered questions it holds. Regardless of the nature of the Las Vegas incident, it has undeniably captured public fascination, adding another chapter to the unending saga of humanity’s quest for answers about our place in the cosmos.

    FULL 1 hour interview with UFO whistleblower David Grusch

    UFO whistleblower David Grusch

    In a riveting revelation, former U.S. Air Force officer and Pentagon insider David Grusch has come forward with unsettling claims concerning the U.S. government’s secretive involvement with unidentified flying objects (UFOs) and the beings piloting them. During an engrossing hour-long interview with journalist Ross Coulthart, Grusch blew the whistle on a top-secret U.S. program that he alleges has been investigating, retrieving, and concealing evidence of alien contact for decades.

    Grusch, a decorated Afghanistan war veteran with 14 years of service in the U.S. Air Force, claims to have been privy to this confidential information through his association with others involved in the covert operation. Following his tenure with the Air Force, Grusch’s professional journey led him to roles within the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) and the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO), both of which would further deepen his immersion into the classified world of UFO intelligence.

    In his role with the NRO, Grusch was actively engaged with the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) Task Force, a unit established to investigate the growing number of UFO sightings. It was here that he reportedly became privy to some of the U.S. government’s most tightly guarded secrets.

    At the heart of Grusch’s allegations lies the contentious claim that extraterrestrial entities, far from being benign or indifferent to humanity, have demonstrated malevolent intent during their visits to Earth, even going as far as causing human fatalities.

    Grusch went on to say, I think the logical fallacy there is because they’re advanced, they’re kind. We’ll never really understand their full intent and that’s because we’re not them. But I think what appears to be malevolent activity has happened. That’s based on nuclear site probing activities and witness testimony.

    This perspective disrupts the conventional narrative that advanced alien civilizations would necessarily espouse a doctrine of pacifism or benevolence. In contrast, Grusch suggests we might be naively attributing our human notions of morality to species with potentially unfathomable motivations.

    In addition to claiming that the U.S. government has been actively hiding its knowledge of these encounters, Grusch postulates that the nation is caught in a silent arms race with Russia and China. The objective? To gain a superior understanding of extraterrestrial technology and potentially harness its power.

    According to Grusch, the U.S. government is willing to go to extraordinary lengths to safeguard these secrets, a fact he found particularly disturbing. Grusch states that even “white-collar crime” has been committed in the name of maintaining this secrecy.

    Moreover, he alluded to UFO sightings involving crafts the size of football fields and other eyewitness accounts detailing encounters with aircraft capable of distorting space and time. In one such account, another military veteran alleges his six-man unit observed a UFO being loaded with weaponry while stationed in Indonesia.

    Full interview below!

    Grusch’s chilling narrative is the latest in a series of recent disclosures that have thrust the UFO debate back into the public spotlight. With the U.S. government’s gradual acknowledgment of UAPs, these revelations call for more transparency, increased scientific inquiry, and an end to decades of denial and disinformation.

    While his accounts might shake our perceptions of our place in the universe, they could ultimately serve to foster a broader understanding of the reality that we may share this cosmos with other, more advanced civilizations. As we stand at this new frontier, it’s clear that the UFO phenomenon is not just about lights in the sky; it’s about who we are, what we might become, and how we coexist in an increasingly complex cosmic neighborhood.

    Stephen Hawking's most famous prediction could mean that everything in the universe is doomed to evaporate, new study says

    Stephen Hawking's most famous theory about black holes has just been given a sinister update — one that proclaims that everything in the universe is doomed to evaporate.

    In 1974, Hawking proposed that black holes eventually evaporate by losing what's now known as Hawking radiation — a gradual draining of energy in the form of light particles that spring up around black holes' immensely powerful gravitational fields. Now, a new update to the theory has suggested that Hawking radiation isn't just created by stealing energy from black holes, but from all objects with enough mass.

    If the theory is true, it means that everything in the universe will eventually disappear, its energy slowly bled from it in the form of light. 

    Related: 

    "That means that objects without an event horizon [the gravitational point of no return beyond which nothing, not even light, can escape a black hole], such as the remnants of dead stars and other large objects in the universe, also have this sort of radiation," lead author Heino Falcke, a professor of astrophysics at Radboud University in the Netherlands, said in a statement. "And, after a very long period, that would lead to everything in the universe eventually evaporating, just like black holes. This changes not only our understanding of Hawking radiation but also our view of the universe and its future."

    The researchers published their findings June 2 in the journal Physical Review Letters.

    Space-time monsters

    According to quantum field theory, there is no such thing as an empty vacuum. Space is instead teeming with tiny vibrations that, if imbued with enough energy, randomly burst into virtual particles, producing very-low-energy packets of light, or photons.

    In a landmark paper published in 1974, Hawking famously predicted that the extreme gravitational force felt at the mouths of black holes — their event horizons — would summon photons into existence in this way. Gravity, according to Einstein's theory of general relativity, distorts space-time, so that quantum fields get more warped the closer they get to the immense gravitational tug of a black hole's singularity.

    Because of the uncertainty and weirdness of quantum mechanics, Hawking said this warping creates uneven pockets of differently moving time and subsequent spikes of energy across the field. These energy mismatches make photons appear in the contorted space around black holes, siphoning energy from the black hole's field so they can burst into existence. If the particles then escape the black hole, this energy theft led Hawking to conclude that — over a vast timescale much longer than the current age of the universe — black holes would eventually lose all of their energy and disappear completely.

    But if a gravitational field is all that's needed to produce quantum fluctuations and photons, what's stopping any object with a space-time warping mass from creating Hawking radiation? Does Hawking radiation need the special condition of a black hole's event horizon, or can it be produced anywhere in space? To probe these questions, the authors of the new study analyzed Hawking radiation through the lens of a long-predicted process called the Schwinger effect, in which matter can theoretically be generated from the powerful distortions caused by an electromagnetic field.

    Sure enough, by applying the framework of the Schwinger effect to Hawking's theory, the theoretical physicists produced a mathematical model that reproduced Hawking radiation in spaces experiencing a range of gravitational field strengths. According to their new theory, an event horizon isn't necessary for energy to slowly leak from a massive object in the form of light; the object's gravitational field is good enough on its own.

    "We show that far beyond a black hole the curvature of space-time plays a big role in creating radiation," second author Walter van Suijlekom, a professor of mathematics at Radboud University, said in the statement. "The particles are already separated there [beyond the black hole] by the tidal forces of the gravitational field."

    What the researchers' theory means in reality isn't clear. Possibly, as the matter that makes up stars, neutron stars, and planets ages, it will eventually undergo an energy transition into a completely new ultralow energy state. This might be enough to eventually collapse all matter into black holes, which could continue to slowly drip out light until they too disappear without a trace.

    Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on any misgivings you may have about evaporating), all of this is just speculation awaiting confirmation. To figure out if it's a true prediction of our universe's eventual fate, physicists will need to spot some Hawking radiation being produced around gravitationally dense objects — both around black holes and planets, stars, or neutron stars. If everything is destined to disappear in a flash of cool light, there should be plenty of places to look.

    Paul Hellyer alien

    Ex-Defence Minister: E.T.s From Andromeda & Saturn’s Moon Visiting Earth For Thousands Of Years

    There are already dozens of claims in favor of extraterrestrial visitation. Today, numerous astronauts and government officials support the UAP phenomena, and some are highly positive that they could have an alien origin. The Honorable Paul Hellyer (1923-2021), former Canadian Minister of Defense said extraterrestrials have been visiting our planet for thousands of years and it is likely that at least two of them are working with the U.S. government and sharing their highly-advanced technologies with humans.

    In the 1960s, Paul Hellyer, a high-ranking official during the Cold War, asserted that he had discovered with certainty about the existence of aliens while serving in the military. He said that people from other worlds had been coming to Earth for a very long time. He insisted that a lot of the stuff that makes up our high-tech gadgetry had been gifted to us by overly-advanced ETs.

    Hellyer had long expressed his views on extraterrestrials in public. He testified at the Citizen Hearing on Disclosure in May 2013 in Washington, DC. Five former members of U.S. Congress and one former U.S. senator listened to more than thirty hours of testimony from government officials, military personnel, researchers, and witnesses.

    Huffington Post Canada described that, as part of his testimony, Hellyer stated that “aliens are living among us and that it is likely at least two of them are working with the U.S. government.” More specifically, Hellyer announced that at least four species of extraterrestrials had been visiting Earth for thousands of years. According to Huffington Post Canada, he also stated that some extraterrestrials originate from the “Zeta Reticuli, the Pleiades, Orion, Andromeda, and Altair star systems” and “may have different agendas.”

    He first spoke openly about his belief governments are covering up an alien presence back in 2005, saying UFOs are as plentiful in our sky as airplanes. “Much of the media won’t touch it, so you just have to keep working away at it and we will get a critical mass and one day they will say Mr. President or Mr. Prime Minister, we want the truth and we want it now because it affects our lives.”

    In 2013, Hellyer appeared on the RT interview show SophieCo with Sophie Shevardnadze to discuss extraterrestrials and UFOs. Shevardnadze asked Hellyer, “Why do you say that UFOs are as real as airplanes flying over our heads?” Hellyer replied, “Because I know that they are. As a matter of fact, they’ve been visiting our planet for thousands of years.” He further stated military action had brought down UFOs, and humans had adapted alien technology for use on Earth.

    He said: “As far as technology is concerned, they are light years ahead of us, and we have learned a lot of things from them. A lot of the things we use today we got from them, you know – led lights and microchips and Kevlar vests and all sorts things that we got from their technology and we could get a lot more too, especially in the fields of medicine and agriculture if we would go about it peacefully. But, I think, maybe some of our people are more interested in getting the military technology, and I think that’s wrong-headed, and that’s one of the things that we are going to have to change, because we’re going to have to work together, all of us, everywhere on the planet.”

    Shevardnadze asked: “Have you ever had your own encounter with aliens?” Hellyer replied: “Not encounter with aliens, no. I’ve seen a UFO, about 120 miles north of Toronto, over Lake Muskoka, where I have a cottage. Two years ago, at Thanksgiving, which is October, [my wife?] said that she wanted to go out and look at the stars, so… I’m not much of a night man… but I put on my cap and went out with her and she looked into the eastern sky and said, ‘There’s a star,’ and I turned the other way and said, ‘Oh, there’s a much brighter one over here,’ and she looked there and we watched it until our necks almost broke for about 20 minutes, and it was definitely a UFO because it could change position in the sky by three or four degrees in three or four seconds.”

    Shevardnadze further asked Hellyer if shooting down those UFOs was risking an interstellar war, and, if so, “should we be creating a Star Wars force to defend ourselves from possible invasion or something like that?”

    Hellyer said: “I think it’s a possibility, but it’s a possibility especially if we shoot down every UFO that comes into our airspace without asking who they are and what they want. Right from the beginning, we started scrambling planes, trying to shoot them down, but their technology was superior enough that we weren’t able to get away with it, certainly not for a long while.”

    He continued: “During that period of time they could have taken us over without any trouble if they wanted to, so I think, rather than developing our own Star Wars to protect ourselves against them, we should work with the benign species that are of a vast majority and work together, and rely largely on them, of course, and cooperate, so that we would be contributing something at the same time; I don’t think there’s any point in us developing a galactic force that would tempt us to ride on our own and get into mischief, which is one of the things that some of them are concerned about.”

    On countering physicist Stephen Hawking’s assertion that any alien visitors to Earth would likely be malevolent, Hellyer argued that not only have aliens already visited Earth but that they have helped contribute to humanity’s technological progress. He said earthlings owe a lot to their alien friends. “Even that computer screen on your desk,” he said, “can trace its origins to spaceships. Microchips, for example, fiber-optics, they are just two of the many things that allegedly — and probably for real — came from crashed vehicles,” Hellyer added. (Source)

    Hellyer was not the only one speaking of a partnership between humans and extraterrestrial intelligence. The former head of the Israeli space security program and retired general Haim Eshed also claimed that a sort of agreement had been made between aliens and the US government to keep silent on their experiments on Earth and secret bases on Mars.

    Mr. Eshed said that aliens and “Galactic federation” do exist and have been working with the US and the Israel government for years, but they keep it a secret to avoid mass hysteria. According to him, President Trump was aware of it and has already been in contact with space aliens. He further said that the aliens have been waiting for humans to evolve and reach a certain stage to actually understand space and spaceships. Besides, they signed a contract with humans to do experiments on Earth and also research with them to learn the fabric of the universe.

    BY ANDY TOMASWICK

    Two English Companies are Cooperating to Bring a Novel Antenna Architecture To Space

    Technology Readiness Levels (or TRLs) are commonly used in the space industry to determine what level of development a technology has undergone. For space technologies, eventually, they get to a TRL where they have to be used in space. In some cases, that can be difficult, as getting a ride on a launch is both risky and expensive. So it’s good news for Oxford Space Systems (OSS) that they penned an agreement with Surrey Satellites Technology Ltd (SSTL) to prove one of their new technologies on an actual flight.

    OSS specializes in making novel antennas for use on small sats up to large missions. They range from standard helical antennas you might expect to see on a cell phone tower to the Yagi, which looks more akin to a propeller system on a board than a communications array. 

    They’re also no strange to actual spaceflight, with several of their helical antennas already making it onto various missions launched by Lacuna, another satellites manufacturer that lies down the road in Harwell, UK, and specializes in providing sensor technologies. However, they have yet to find a mission willing to support some of their more advanced antennas, including their “wrapped rib” antenna.

    That design resembles a traditional satellite dish, but its real magic is in its packaging and deployment. It’s difficult to store a fully-fledged dish in a rocket fairing, so OSS designed its antenna to deploy once it reaches space. It’s made of a type of mesh highly reflective to RF signals but looks almost transparent at some angles and is supported by a series of “ribs” that expand out from a central point. 

    They’ve completed a series of thorough tests on the antenna and its deployment system on the ground in the UK so far. But now it is time to get it into space to prove that “flight heritage” coveted by space industry companies. So they needed another partner willing to adopt this new technology, and they found one that was – not quite – just down the road again.

    Surrey, where SSTL is located, is about an hour’s drive from Harwell down the M4 motorway and has become quite the hub for satellite system development in recent years. SSTL is just one of several companies working in that space in the town, though they specialize in a technology that is particularly interesting to the defense industry.

    Scott Manley does a great job explaining what Synthetic Aperture Radar is.

    Synthetic Aperture Radar, or SAR, is a relatively modern take on radar that can create 3D images of objects as a satellite passes over them. SSTL has a lineage of creating satellites that are exceptional at doing so and have previously provided spy satellites for British intelligence services, among others.

    One of their upcoming technology demonstration projects is CarbSAR, a 140kg SAR satellite that will orbit around 520km up and provide data back to its ground station at 500MBps. SSTL decided to go with OSS as its antenna provider for CarbSAR as a way of proving that their satellite platforms can be integrated with equipment from other suppliers – a good characteristic to have if your company doesn’t want to be reliant on a single source supplier for a critical component that could go bankrupt at any time.

    Both companies don’t seem to be near bankruptcy and are hiring more staff as they scale up their operations. There’s no firm date for when CarbSAR will launch yet, but when it does, it will hopefully add another feather in the cap to both English companies as they continue on their mission to build better satellites.

    Is THIS the key to unlimited clean energy? Scientists beam solar power to Earth from SPACE in world first

    • 'Space solar power' is a concept conjured by science-fiction writer Isaac Asimov
    • Researchers have shown it's possible by beaming solar power back to the Earth
    • It may offer a better alternative to solar panels on land, described as an eyesore 

    Solar panels on Earth already provide us with a clean source of power, but they can be a blot on the landscape and are practically useless when it's dark.

    Now, scientists in California have provided a solution – sending solar panels to space so they can harness the sun's power 24/7. 

    In a world first, the researchers beamed solar energy to Earth from a spacecraft called MAPLE, which was launched to orbit in January. 

    MAPLE is equipped with solar panels that can withstand 'the harsh environment of space', including wild temperature swings and solar radiation. 

    'Space solar power' – a concept conjured by science-fiction writer Isaac Asimov in 1941 – could potentially yield eight times more power than solar panels at any location on Earth's surface. 

    Above the Earth there are no clouds and no day or night that could obstruct the sun's ray - making a space solar station a constant green power source

    Above the Earth there are no clouds and no day or night that could obstruct the sun's ray - making a space solar station a constant green power source

    The project is being led by Caltech's Space Solar Power Project (SSPP), which aims to harvest solar power in space and transmit it to the Earth's surface as a permanent source of power.

    What is space solar power? 

    Space solar power is a concept for generating electricity from solar energy in space and then transmitting it to Earth. 

    A spacecraft uses solar panels to collect solar energy. A 'power transmission system' then converts the solar energy into a form that can be transmitted to Earth, such as microwaves or lasers. 

    Receivers on Earth then convert the transmitted energy back into electricity that can be fed into a national grid.

    SBSP has the potential to provide a large, reliable and clean source of energy for the world. 

    The experts hope it could offer a better green alternative to fossil fuels and even renewable energy sources such as geothermal, wind and nuclear. 

    'Through the experiments we have run so far, we received confirmation that MAPLE can transmit power successfully to receivers in space,' said Ali Hajimiri, professor of electrical engineering at Caltech. 

    'We have also been able to program the array to direct its energy toward Earth, which we detected here at Caltech. 

    'We had, of course, tested it on Earth, but now we know that it can survive the trip to space and operate there.' 

    Solar panels on Earth are made up of multiple 'solar cells' – little devices that convert radiation from the sun into electricity. 

    Solar cells have existed on Earth since the late 1800s and currently generate about 4 per cent of the world’s electricity, in addition to powering the International Space Station.

    But critics of the technology point out that they often don't work in a countries blighted by cloudy weather for much of the year, such as the UK. 

    Other problems with the technology generally is these panels take up a lot of ground and can be an eyesore, often on green land that could be freed up for other uses. 

    The Caltech team therefore developed MAPLE, short for Microwave Array for Power-transfer Low-orbit Experiment, which was launched aboard the Transporter-6 mission from Cape Canaveral on January 3.

    MAPLE consists of an array of flexible lightweight microwave power transmitters driven by electronic chips built using low-cost silicon, the team say.

    READ MORE: 

    They need to be flexible so they can fold up into a package that can be transported in a rocket and then unfold once in orbit, much like NASA's James Webb Space Telescope.

    MAPLE's transmitters convert the solar energy into a form that can be transmitted to Earth, such as lasers or, in this case, microwaves. 

    The array of transmitters can beam the energy to desired locations, such as a receiving station on Earth that feeds the power into the national grid. 

    In the world first, MAPLE's transmitted energy was detected by a receiver on the roof of a building on Caltech's campus in Pasadena, California. 

    The received signal appeared at the 'expected time and frequency', according to the experts, and had the right change in frequency as predicted based on its travel from orbit. 

    'To the best of our knowledge, no one has ever demonstrated wireless energy transfer in space even with expensive rigid structures,' said Professor Hajimiri. 

    'We are doing it with flexible lightweight structures and with our own integrated circuits – this is a first.' 

    The academics ultimately envision a 'constellation' of spacecraft that collect sunlight, transform it into electricity, then wirelessly transmit that electricity over long distances wherever it is needed.

    This could be especially important for the places that currently have no access to reliable power, such as developing countries. 

    It's unclear what will happen to the orbiting MAPLE spacecraft now, or if it will form the basis of this constellation.

    However, the technology is not quite ready for mass-scale adoption, according to the Caltech team, as solar power generation and transmission needs to be rethought for use on a large scale in space. 

    Solar panels are bulky and heavy, making them expensive to launch, and they need extensive wiring to transmit power. 

    Professor Hajimiri's team is now assessing the performance of individual elements within the system – a 'painstaking process' that can take up to six months.

    Once complete, it will allow the team to sort out irregularities and trace them back to individual units, providing insight for the next generation of the system.

    Caltech isn't alone in its space solar power efforts; the UK government is also looking into the feasibility of building solar power plants in space.

    In 2020, it commissioned new research into the concept of such solar power stations as a way to meet the Earth's growing energy needs. 

    A short history of space-based solar power

    The idea of Space-Based Solar Power stations have been around since 1941.

    Science fiction writer Isaac Asimov first wrote about them in the short story Reason. 

    In the story he wrote about a space station that transmits energy collected from the Sun to various planets using microwave beams. 

    There were a number of concept designs from the 1970s but non were deemed economically viable. 

    The basic concept involves a space station with a solar array to convert solar energy into electrical energy.

    Then it would use a microwave transmitter or laser emitter to transmit the energy to a collector on the Earth.

    The UK has joined Japan, China, Russia and the US in pursuing the idea of space based power generation.

    As of 2008, Japan made the idea of space solar power a national goal. 

    Advantages of the technology include the fact it is always solar noon in space with a full Sun.

    Collecting surfaces could also receive more intense sunlight than on Earth.

    However they would be large satellites, costing a lot of money to launch - although launches have become cheaper thanks to commercial firms.

    {Project Blue Book Classified Version crashed UFO photos

    US Attorney Saw Crashed UFO Photos In Classified Version Of Project Blue Book

    A big UFO reveal was made by American Attorney Daniel Sheehan in the 2001 Disclosure Project Event at The National Press Club in Washington, DC. He claimed to go through documents from the Project Blue Book that remained classified. Mr. Sheehan boldly claimed that those uncensored documents of the Blue Book had photographs of a crashed UFO being investigated by Air Force personnel.

    Who is Daniel Sheehan?

    Daniel P. Sheehan is a Harvard College, Harvard Law School, and Harvard Divinity School-trained Constitutional Trial Lawyer and Appellate Attorney. Over the last five decades, his work as a trial lawyer, appellate attorney, public speaker, author, and college and law school educator has helped to expose injustice, protect fundamental rights and elucidate a compelling vision for the future of humanity. Mr. Sheehan has served as a legal counsel on many high-profile cases such as Karen Silkwood, Iran-Contra, the American Sanctuary Movement, the Pentagon papers, Three Mile Island, and Watergate. (Source)

    Mr. Sheehan’s UFO journey began in 1977, when he was approached by his friend Marcia Smith who spent 31 years as a science and technology policy expert specializing in space activities at the Congressional Research Service.

    She informed him that newly-elected President Carter held a meeting with the Director of Central Intelligence and demanded that the CIA should provide classified information about unidentified flying objects to the president, as well as the information that was in the possession of the United States intelligence community concerning the existence of extraterrestrial.

    However, George H. Bush, who was the CIA director at that time, refused to give this information to the President of the United States. He told Carter that such intelligence is available strictly on a need-to-know basis and that the newly-elected president did not have a need to know. Mr. Sheehan said Bush’s response could have been based on the probability that the intelligence community feared Carter planned on making such information public.

    “The director insisted that the president in order to have access to this information needed to have clearance through contact the Congressional Research Service (part of the U.S. Congress) to contact the United States House of Representative science and technology division to have them undertake a process to declassify this information because the DCI suspected that the president was preparing to reveal this information to the American public,” Mr. Sheehan said in the Disclosure at the National Press Club in 2001.

    Marcia Smith asked Mr. Sheehan if he could get access to the Vatican library in an attempt to see what information the Catholic Church had on the UFO phenomena and extraterrestrials. Sheehan used all his influence and tried to obtain the information, but the Vatican flat-out refused his requests.

    However, with Carter’s help, Sheehan did manage to get access to the classified portions of the Air Force’s Project Blue Book for a few hours in May 1977. Sheehan perused the files and microfilms in the just opened Madison building near Capitol Hill. He carefully examined various films until he came across a startling discovery in the frames of one of them taken by the Air Force.

    Sheehan UFO Experience

    So, in May 1977, he went to the Madison building of the United States Library of Congress, and there was no one inside at that time. It was brand new. He was directed to a basement office, where there were two guards at the door and one more sitting at the table who verified his designation and that he had been appointed as a special consultant to the Congressional Research Service of the United States Library of Congress.

    “There were these photographs of unmistakable — of a UFO sitting on the ground. It had crashed,” Sheehan said. “Apparently, it had hit into this field and had dug up, kind of plowed this kind of trough through this field,” he paused for a second.

    “It was wedged into the side of this bank,” he said after taking a deep breath. “There was snow all around the picture. The vehicle was wedged into the side of this mud-like embankment — kind of up at an angle. There was Air Force personnel. As I cranked the little handle and looked at additional photos, these Air Force people were taking pictures.

    In the photograph, they were taking photographs of this vehicle. One of the photos actually had the Air Force personnel with this big long tape measure measuring this thing. You could see that they had these parkas on, with little fur around their hoods. You could see that they had little name tags on their jackets. They were clearly U.S. Air Force personnel. I was kind of in this strange state saying: Here it is!So, I turned the crank for more pictures, and I could see on the side of this craft these, like, little insignias — little symbols. So, I turned ahead a couple of pictures to see if there was a closer picture. Sure enough, there was. One of the photos had kind of a close-up picture of these symbols. So, what I did is — I was getting nervous — I looked around, and the [security] guys weren’t watching or anything. They were outside of the room, so I took the yellow pad, and I flipped it open to the little gray cardboard backing and I flipped it under the screen. I shrank the size of the picture to the same size as the back of the yellow pad, and traced the actual symbols out in detail, verbatim of what was there. Then I said, like, I’m going to leave. That’s it. I’ve got this, and I don’t want to push my luck on this thing…”

    When Mr. Sheehan left the room, the guard asked to see his yellow legal pad and flipped through the pages, missing the alien hieroglyphs Sheehan had copied on the back of the pad. Sheehan offered to share this information with the religious establishment; they told him they were not interested.

    On August 30, 2021, during an interview with Coast To Coast AM George Noory, Mr. Sheehan shared his contention that the US military has recovered more than one crashed UFO, which they had been deconstructing and back-engineering. He recounted how he came to legally represent Luis Elizondo in his complaints against the US Defense Department over its handling of the UFO issue over the years. (Source)

    Mr. Sheehan admires Elizondo for trying to disclose UFO information to the American public, reminiscent of the controversies that activist Daniel Ellsberg faced when trying to reveal the Pentagon Papers (about the Vietnam War) in 1971.

    The Pentagon wants to keep recovered UFO technology secret, and monopolize it for weaponry and their own purposes, Sheehan asserted, rather than use it for new or free forms of energy that would upend the oil industry and the vested interests behind it.

    UFO technology, he added, would also help combat the crisis of global climate change. Advanced ET civilizations have realized they cannot directly interfere with species’ choices, as this would thwart their evolution, Sheehan noted. And when UFOs demonstrated they could shut down our nuke facilities, he continued, that was to send a message that they have this capacity but want humanity to choose to eliminate this destructive technology themselves.

    Would YOU survive an alien invasion? New study reveals safest states to live in event of extraterrestrial attack - and its bad news for the West Coast!

    An ominous spike in UFO sightings has captured America's imagination - but what state is the safest to live in if aliens decide to invade the earth? 

    A new study has attempted to put the question to rest, with Virginia residents the most likely to survive an extraterrestrial visit. 

    According to researchers with njcasino.com, the chances of staying alive are determined by factors including how much each state spends on defense, its population density, and cover from incoming attacks in caves and woodland. 

    The number of UFO sightings per state were also included in the study, after a Pentagon chief recently admitted hundreds of flying saucers have already been spotted 'all over the world.'

    America's recent obsession with alien invaders comes after intelligence officials have made a series of startling revelations, with even Barack Obama admitting he saw UFO footage he 'can't explain'

    And if aliens were to make their arrival more invasive, those who want to live should make their way to Virginia to hedge their bets on survival.  

    Thanks to its impressive military spending coupled with a small population size, the Easy Coast metro came out on top in the rankings with a score of 8.04 out of 10. 

    Georgia and Massachusetts rounded out the podium, while New York's expansive NYPD force helped the Big Apple come in a close fourth. 

    Alongside a high number of cops, New Yorkers also enjoy over 2,600 food and drink spots, which would be sure to help residents make it through an alien apocalypse. 

    However, West Coast citizens are set to fare far worse, with Nevada registering the lowest survivability score at just 4.53 out of 10. 

    One of the main reasons for the state's poor showing is its large number of UFO sightings, while it also has a lack of helpful terrain such as caves and forests. 

    The wide open plains of the West Coast also saw states including New Mexico, Arizona, Utah and Idaho fall to the bottom of the pack. 

    A high number of apparent UFO sightings in recent years has led many to speculate if an alien invasion is imminent - or if one quietly happened already

    A high number of apparent UFO sightings in recent years has led many to speculate if an alien invasion is imminent - or if one quietly happened already 

    The study comes amid heightened interest in extraterrestrial activity in the US, with Congress hosting several high-profile hearings confirming the existence of 'UAPs' - stood for unidentified aerial phenomenon. 

    Earlier this month, a Pentagon chief admitted during NASA's first-ever public hearing that hundreds of UFOs have been spotted 'all over the world'

    Physicist Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick, director of the Pentagon's All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), said: 'We see these ('metallic orbs') all over the world, and we see these making very interesting apparent maneuvers.' 

    And a top attorney involved in bringing UFO whistleblowers to Congress has sensationally claimed that a crashed vessel recovered by the US military 'distorted space-time' when it was picked up. 

    Daniel Sheehan says he was told the mind-boggling tale by a whistleblower who allegedly took part in an illegally-undisclosed program retrieving crashed non-human spacecraft. 

    He claims when investigators entered the UFO, they found it to be 'bigger on the inside' than it initially appeared.

    Nick Pope, a former Ministry of Defense UFO investigator, warned AZ Big Media the phenomena is here to stay. 

    'Gone are the days when it was regarded as part fringe, part-science fiction, and part conspiracy theory,' he said. 

    'UFOs are now being treated as a defense and national security issue, discussed in the United States Congress, and attracting attention from the Head of NASA.  

    'It's difficult to tell whether we're seeing a genuine spike in UFO sightings - and if so, what this means - or whether what's happening is that a higher proportion of sightings is being reported, as a result of the current mainstream media coverage of this subject.

    'The subject has come out of the fringe and into the mainstream, which has led to lots more people speaking out about their own sightings and encounters. 

    'Regardless of the truth about these various incidents, it focuses on the fact that UFO sightings - whatever their cause - have serious and profound defense, national security, and air safety issues.'

    A new experimental hypersonic cruise vehicle could be flying as soon as next summer under an initiative from the U.S. Defense Innovation Unit (DIU).

    The Dart AE high-speed test aircraft is being developed by the Australian company Hypersonix Launch Systems following the award of a prototype contract by the DIU. 

    DART AE is a 9.8-foot-long (3 meters), 660-pound (300 kilograms) scramjet-powered technology demonstrator that can reach speeds of up to Mach 7, according to the company’s website. (Mach 1 is the speed of sound, which is about 767 mph, or 1,235 kph, at sea level. "Hypersonic" generally refers to flight that achieves speeds of Mach 5 or higher.)

    Related: 

    The vehicle could now be ready as early as next summer as part of Pentagon efforts to boost its hypersonics flight-test cadence, C4ISRNET reported.

    The DIU, which operates under the U.S. Department of Defense, describes itself as an organization focused on accelerating the adoption of commercial and dual-use technology to solve operational challenges at speed and scale.

    The Pentagon is pursuing research and development of hypersonic defense programs. As part of this, the DIU has rolled out the high-cadence testing capabilities (HyCAT) project, which brings opportunities for commercial companies to develop reusable and low-cost test vehicles and reduce strain on DoD resources.

    Lt. Col. Nicholas Estep, HyCAT program manager, told C4ISRNET that the DIU is refining the details of the mission, including the flight conditions, the launch provider and the location for next year’s first fully integrated, autonomous flight of DART AE.

    Fenix Space, Inc., located in San Bernardino, California, and Rocket Lab, located in Long Beach, California, have also been awarded DIU contracts for a reusable tow-launch platform and the Hypersonic Accelerator Suborbital Test Electron (HASTE) rocket, respectively.

    Recently declassified forward looking infrared from U.S. Navy F/A-18 Super Hornets show what the Pentagon is calling "unidentified aerial phenomenon." These FLIR contacts lack wings, any sign of propulsion, and indications are that they can travel upwards of 13,000 miles per hour.

    The aircrew (pilots and weapons systems officers) involved were all slow-rolled the first time they debriefed their footage to intelligence officials at their local military commands, but when a former undersecretary of defense leaked the FLIR footage to the New York Times, the Pentagon had to admit that the images were real and the Department of Defense had no reason to believe that UAPs didn't exist.

    The only question was what they actually were.

    Reasonable analysis basically puts the options into three categories: a domestic developmental program, a near-peer spy program, or aliens. In this episode, Ward builds the case for which of those three he believes is most likely.

    Scientists at NASA held their first ever public meeting on "unidentified anomalous phenomena" - more commonly called UFOs. This is the same space agency that has spent years debunking any UFO rumour.

    NASA's public briefing came just before an US whistleblower claimed that the United States government is in possession of UFOs. Why is the United States so obsessed with aliens and UFOs and why is NASA suddenly looking into UFOs? Palki Sharma tells you on this episode of Between the Lines. ​

    Bombshell UFO claim made by whistleblower

    A former U.S. intelligence official and Air Force veteran claims a top-secret program is withholding evidence of alien spacecraft.

    David Charles Grusch, a 36-year-old decorated former combat officer in Afghanistan, served the National Reconnaissance Office, acting as their representative to Congress’ Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force from 2019-2021. At the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, he also served from late 2021 to July 2022 as co-lead of unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) analysis and its representative to the task force, which was recently renamed the All Domain Anomaly Resolution Office.

    The Debrief first reported Monday that Grusch said he filed a whistleblower complaint to Congress and the Intelligence Community Inspector General (ICIG) on classified information that he insists proves the recoveries of partial fragments through and up to intact vehicles have been made for decades through the present day by the U.S. government, its allies and defense contractors.

    The recoveries have been determined through analysis to be "of exotic origin (non-human intelligence, whether extraterrestrial or unknown origin) based on the vehicle morphologies and material science testing and the possession of unique atomic arrangements and radiological signatures," Grusch said.

This presumption is based on the theory that alien-astronauts visited the Earth in ancient times to establish off-world colonies and engineer the process of human evolution. Since the aliens supposedly come from worlds other than our own, or so the theory goes, it follows they must be extra-terrestrial. 

    However, there is little evidence for believing this. To date, not a single ufologist, contactee or abductee can present credible evidence to support the view that aliens are extra-terrestrial. Evidence of a kind, however, does exist for an alternate theory about the ontological nature of alien entities. This is the view that aliens are trans-dimensional entities inhabiting the myriad layers of alternate dimensions that interpenetrate the Multiverse, ‘in’ the world as we know it and yet not really ‘of’ the world. 


    Kenneth Grant (1924–2011)

    The great 20th century magickal practitioner Aleister Crowley, in his own experiments, first postulated this view; he saw aliens, in fact, as humanity’s best chance for solving the problems of life, death, and achieving perfection. Similarly, Crowley’s disciple and protégé, Kenneth Grant, head of the UK branch of the OTO for many years and author of the monumental 9-volume Typhonian Trilogies series, also made the argument that aliens are trans-dimensional. Grant went a bit further than Crowley due to the fact that the UFO craze was gathering steam when Grant was starting his own career (Grant’s Typhonian New Isis Lodge was in active operation between the years 1955–1962). Studying the documents of the early contactees such as George Adamski, Betty and Barney Hill, and Howard Menger, Grant attempted to reconcile ufology, which he referred to as “ufologicks,” with mainstream occult theory & practice. 

    Aleister Crowley & LAM

    Aleister Crowley (1875–1945), poet, mountaineer, adventurer & philanderer, worked his way through most of the grade structure of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn in the early 1900s, learning the theory and practice of Western magick from the bottom up. When the order was wracked with schism, Crowley left and founded his own more congenial magickal order, the Argenteum Astrum. Later, in 1912, Crowley became the Grand Master of the Ordo Templi Orientis (OTO) in the UK, where he developed his special, stylised brand of sex magick based on Tantric and Yezidis sources. 


    Aleister Crowley (1875–1947)

    Crowley defined magick as “the science and art of causing Change to occur in conformity with Will.” The “change” Crowley refers to is psychological and spiritual transformation. This is accomplished by utilising the latent, psychic powers of the mind and activating the psycho-sexual power zones that reside in key areas of the body and the brain, the areas known as the chakras. As a necessary preliminary step towards making the “magick” happen, so to speak, the magickal practitioner must achieve contact with a genuine alien entity, something not connected to the practitioner’s own mind or body. Crowley referred to this entity by the rather fanciful name “Holy Guardian Angel” (HGA), and he described the experience of contacting the HGA somewhat less fancifully as obtaining “Knowledge & Conversation.” Crowley insisted that contact with the HGA was absolutely required before the magickal practitioner could hope to utilise the powers and energies of lesser entities such as spirits, elementals, demons and so forth (none of which, it must be remembered, can be wholly disassociated from the mind of the practitioner). And finally, Crowley insisted that each and every person on Earth must achieve contact with his or her own HGA if humankind is expected to advance. As Crowley writes:

    My observation of the Universe convinces me that there are beings of intelligence and power of a far higher quality than anything we can conceive of as human; that they are not necessarily based on the cerebral and nervous structures that we know; and that the one and only chance for mankind to advance as a whole is for individuals to make contact with such Beings.


    Lam/Aiwaz

    This is one of the most important passages that Crowley ever wrote. Crowley offers a three-fold definition of an alien entity: (1) aliens are genuinely ‘alien’ since they exist apart from the physical and cerebral attributes of human beings; (2) aliens have a higher level of intellectual and cognitive ability than humans; and, most importantly, (3) aliens, being essentially magickal beings, are trans-dimensional, not extra-terrestrial. This last point is implicit in Crowley’s statement but it is there nonetheless. The magickal practitioner is expected to achieve the knowledge and conversation of the HGA via magickal or mystical methods; this entity can be summoned by magickal rites, whether evocations or invocations; it can be summoned by astral travelling or lucid dreaming; or the entity can be summoned in meditation and/or mystical trance. In contrast, extra-terrestrial entities cannot be reached by using any of these methods – they must be met face-to-face in real time, in a common, shared time-space continuum.

    In his lifetime Crowley achieved contact with only one alien entity of this nature, and that was the alien known as Lam or Aiwaz (the two are sometimes distinguished by occult scholars, but they were virtually synonymous in Crowley’s mind and I shall therefore speak of them as one entity in this essay). Lam was believed by Crowley to be an emissary of other aliens or “outer-ones”; Lam/Aiwaz was the entity that dictated the notorious Book of the Law, or Liber AL, to Crowley via the seer Rose Kelley in 1904. Crowley also had direct contact with Lam in America later in 1915 and 1919. Crowley drew a portrait of Lam and included it with some of his expressionist paintings in an exhibition held in Greenwich Village, New York City, 1919. This drawing was reproduced for the first time in The Equinox, Vol. III, No. 1 (1972); Kenneth Grant reproduced the same drawing in The Magical Revival (1972) and Outside the Circles of Time (1980). Lam has a small, diminutive body visible only from the chest on up, covered by a coarse, wool-textured robe. The area of the head above the eyebrows and the bridge of the nose is very high, bulbous and hairless; it is more than twice as long as the lower area. There is a faint, mushroom-cloud shape etched into the expansive forehead. The face itself is scrunched down low between the eyebrows and the chin; the eyes are narrow and slanted, the pupils tiny, the nose long, the mouth a mere slit. 

    When we compare the image of Lam with the descriptions of aliens given by contactees and abductees, there are striking similarities. Grey-skinned humanoids have been reported as being 3-4 feet tall with bald, elongated heads, black almond eyes and slits for mouths. There are descriptions of diminutive green humanoids, also bald with elongated heads, slanted eyes, slit-mouths. There are even accounts of small silvery creatures who resemble the other two types. Clearly, contactees and abductees are seeing the same sorts of entities that Crowley saw; the only difference is that Crowley’s entity was not coloured green, gray or silver. In this context, it is worth noting that all of these alien archetypes are virtually equivalent to the 1950s Hollywood Science Fiction versions of aliens – the big-brained, bug-eyed, little green or gray men that still crop up occasionally in SF films on TV and in the cinema today. 

    David J Skal, horror film scholar and author of The Monster Show: A Cultural History of Horror (1993), offers an interesting interpretation of the big-headed, bug-eyed alien stereotype. 

    Invasion of the Saucer Men (1957) boasted the most exaggerated eye-brain hypertrophy of all: aliens (played by dwarves) with heads shaped like gargantuan light bulbs, their bugging eyes the size of baseballs…. these new creatures anticipated not the violent rending of the body but its withering and atrophy. The future was about watching images and processing information; the eyes and brain were the only useful parts of the human form left…. ocular anxiety and depersonalization was reflected in films like The Beast with a Million Eyes (1955), The Crawling Eye (1958), and The Cyclops (1957).

    This is eerily applicable to our contemporary times where young millennials are addicted to their smartphones, cherishing them more, seemingly, than the hands that hold them, as they pump unceasing bits of social and entertainment data directly into their brains. Perhaps in the future, as our technologies advance and proliferate, we will see increasing levels of “ocular anxiety” and depersonalisation of the type mentioned by Skal. But this is more or less a human thing. Alien entities such as Lam do not have big heads because of information overload; they need the expanded cranial capacity to house their superior minds and apply their cognitive energy, enhanced as it is, to assist humankind in taking the next, necessary step towards enlightenment.

    Kenneth Grant & Ufologicks

    After Crowley’s death, his disciple Kenneth Grant (1924–2011) received a charter from Karl Germer, Crowley’s successor as Outer Head of the OTO, to set up a UK branch of the OTO. From its inception, Grant’s New Isis Lodge reflected Crowley’s hopes, which he articulated in his diaries during the last two years of his life, for a fundamentally different, re-structured OTO, focused less on initiation and more on promoting and fostering communication with alien entities.

    Elaborate ceremonial and the establishment of fixed Lodges in specific locales would be superseded by a fluid and far-flung web comprised of Thelemic power-zones. These power-zones would form a loosely-knit network of occult groups using the Ophidian Current to prepare human consciousness for intercourse with the denizens of other dimensions.

    Grant followed through on Crowley’s game-plan; he divided his “Typhonian” OTO as he called it into a series of disparate cells, each operated by either a single, dedicated magickal practitioner or by a small coven of practitioners. The main lodge facility was reserved for visiting magickal practitioners and performance artists who were allowed to stage their own creative rites on a first-come, first-serve basis, using lodge members occasionally for support and backup.


    Desmodus

    Grant, like Crowley, also contacted the HGA. Grant’s guardian angel was named Aossic-Aiwass, and not surprisingly it closely resembled LAM. Grant provides plates in the various volumes of his Typhonian Trilogies series that show the faces of the alien entities he communicated with over the course of his magickal experiments, both during his tenure as head of the New Isis Lodge and afterwards. These aliens also resemble Lam. An alien known only as Desmodus is shown in Plate 8 of Outer Gateways (1994); this was drawn by Grant. Desmodus’ face occupies only the lower half of the head; the rest is a high, bulbous forehead, with a small, weird face etched into the skin, smoke pouring out of its eyes. In Plate 29 of Beyond the Mauve Zone (1999) there is the drawing (also by Grant) of an alien priest. Like Aossic-Aiwass, the priest has a large, bulbous head, though the face is more normal looking. These examples are clear evidence the alien entities that haunted Grant’s magickal chambers and the chambers of his imagination are the same diminutive, big-brained creatures that appear to countless contactees and abductees. 

    Grant, likewise, accepted Crowley’s view that alien entities are trans-dimensional. In Outside the Circles of Time (1980), Grant calls into question the whole extra-terrestrial vs trans-dimensional dichotomy, seeing outer space as a form of inner space, especially when it comes to alien beings. This takes aliens out of their metal ships and plants them squarely in alternate dimensions. 

    Whether or not…. intrusion proceeds from actual entities in outer space is problematic; outer space may be another form of that inner space which comprises the mental or subjective universe.

    In a later, more penetrating analysis of the nature of aliens, in his Outer Gateways (1994), Grant rightly notes that the larger percentage of encounters involve aliens that are not flesh and blood but are actually magickal beings. Grant theorises that aliens are largely “etheric,” not quite astral-entities but closer in substance to the astral than they are to the physical. Grant extends this theory to include alien ships. These ships, according to Grant, are etheric – astral shells or capsules fabricated by the trans-dimensional aliens as a necessary by-product to assist in reification on the physical plane. 

    The substance of manifestation appears ….to be of an etheric as distinct from an astral nature. This supposition is suggested by the tangible quality of many of the objects observed. Sightings in this category appear to be far in excess of those in which the occupants of UFO’s are considered to be flesh-and-blood beings… that suggests that ufonauts are of a substance more subtle than their vehicles, as the astral body of man is more subtle, or less dense, than his physical body. Such might be the case, for example, if an astral entity fabricated for itself an etheric shell, or capsule, as in the practice known as the magickal assumption of god-forms.

    Grant coined the term “ufologicks,” which is phonetically similar to “magicks.” He defined ufologicks in obscure terms as “a suggested designation for the mantric vibrations associated with Gematria and with the power-wave impinging upon earth from Outside.” When we get past the over-inflated terminology, the meaning is rather simple: ufologicks is (or will be) a new magickal system focused primarily on rites that are specifically designed to enable magickal practitioners to contact alien entities like Lam, Aossic-Aiwass, or Desmodus. 

    Unfortunately, Grant died before he could take practical steps to implement this new system. But he did leave behind some notes on an improvised magickal rite which could be used to summon Lam. Grant instructs the magickal practitioner to gaze at the portrait of Lam, concentrating attention on the eyes. As concentration deepens, the eyes will start to enlarge, and they will suck you into the portrait so that you have the sensation of being inside the entity’s head. Then, Grant tells us, two paths are possible, either a “downward” or an “upward” path. Grant doesn’t elaborate on what might occur if the upward path is chosen, but he is very explicit about the downward option. The results are quite dramatic, and they deserve full quotation here. 

    If downward, the descent will be accompanied by a sensation of rushing air… A deep blackness will engulf the mind as one enters the dark tunnel beneath the mouth of Lam, and the wind will be replaced by the sound of rushing waters… [this] will awaken the image of an octopoid entity, the tentacles of which are the branchings of the tunnel below the mouth of Lam…. [A] fusion will occur between the eyes of Lam, in the region of the ajna chakra, and the flame will shoot aloft into the vast brilliance of a cranium that appears infinite in extent and dazzlingly lustrous. 

    This rite serves as an excellent example of what the formal rites for a ufologick lodge might have looked like if Grant had lived to establish his proposed magickal system.

    As a parting concession to future ufologists, there is a curious and rather peculiar UFO-centric account of the creation of the world in one of Grant’s last books, Beyond the Mauve Zone (1999). Grant describes the appearance of an alien astronaut on Earth in ancient, pre-human times (the period is not specified). The alien presents itself in the guise of an eccentric, reclusive scientist. In his laboratory, the alien has set up a shrine to the goddess Nu-Isis, consisting of a statue of the goddess and an eternal flame burning in front of it. The statue is fashioned from a metal that cannot be found on Earth. She is a metallic, biomechanoid Earth-woman, reminiscent of the countless biomechanoid female aliens that proliferate in the canvasses of the Swiss artist H. R. Giger. The alien scientist feeds the statue with fluids drawn from elemental, astral entities. Eventually, the laboratory is destroyed by a massive explosion and the alien either perishes or escapes back to his own dimension. Much later a living human woman emerges from the ashes of the lab, born from the apocalypse of the explosion. She is Lura, daughter of the biomechanoid statue, who Grant describes as “the vitalised image worshipped and nourished by the scientist in the secrecy of his laboratory.” Along with the birth of Lura, humans begin to populate the Earth. Some of these humans are directly descended from Lura herself, the children of her sexual liaisons with Earth men, and these individuals are particularly suited to communicate with trans-dimensional alien entities. At the present day, the descendants of Lura are the magickal practitioners – magickians, mystics and psychonauts – who seek supra-human knowledge and power. 

    Real or Not Real?

    Previously, I mentioned there is scant empirical evidence for the existence of aliens. This is especially true when it comes to the extra-terrestrial alien. In all fairness, it must be noted that the evidence for the existence of the trans-dimensional alien is equally weak. We have examined the testimony of Crowley and Grant, but is this any more reliable than the testimony of ufologists, contactees or abductees? The issue here boils down to the distinction between the imaginary world and the so-called ‘real’ world. Which is true? Or are both true? Or neither? In the last few decades, quantum physics has eroded our views about reality, and the theories of contemporary scientists are beginning to sound a lot like the theories of the magickal practitioners, both past and present. The line between what is real and what is not is no longer distinct, and in the absence of certainty we are free to believe what we will. 

    In this regard, I am reminded of Harry Potter’s final meeting with his mentor Albus Dumbledore near the end of the 7th book in J. K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (2007). Potter finds himself in an alternate dimension that looks like King’s Cross station, except that it is empty – no trains, no passengers and full of bright mist. Initially, Potter is surprised to see Dumbledore, because Dumbledore died in the previous book. After they converse, Potter asks Dumbledore: “Is this real? Or has this been happening inside my head?”, to which Dumbledore replies: “Of course it is happening inside your head… but why on earth should that mean that it is not real?”

    Unveiling the Unknown: Unraveling the Mysteries of UFO Sightings in Calvin

    ARE ALIENS REAL

    In the realm of the unknown, few phenomena captivate the imagination as powerfully as UFO sightings. Amidst a myriad of reports, one incident from August 1990 in Calvin, Scotland, stands as an intriguing enigma, intertwined with conspiracy theories, alleged cover-ups, and government investigations. Let’s delve into this mystifying event, elucidating why this particular UFO sighting continues to grip UFO enthusiasts, historians, and the general public alike.

    In the stillness of an August night, two hotel chefs spotted an unidentified flying object looming over Calvin. This sighting quickly spiraled into a nerve-rattling encounter that left them with more questions than answers, propelling them into a world of speculation and intrigue. But what exactly transpired on this eerie summer night?

    The unidentified object, characterized by its diamond shape and shimmering surface, hovered ominously in the night sky. Suddenly, a military jet fighter burst into view, darting around the strange object and leaving the men aghast. One of them, fortunately equipped with a camera, managed to snap a series of photographs that caught the bizarre craft, with the jet fighter in the backdrop.

    Yet, these theories were quickly denied by defense ministers, who stated that no permission had been granted for any unidentified stealth aircraft to operate within UK airspace. These dismissals, however, only led to a proliferation of conspiracy theories about this particular UFO sighting.

    The original photographs taken during the encounter were allegedly examined by intelligence chiefs, who claimed it could be a top-secret US aerial project. But what of these photographs? Despite supposed plans to release them in 2020, they remain under wraps till 2076, citing privacy concerns. The veil of secrecy surrounding these UFO sightings further fuels the intrigue and speculation.

    Recent investigations into these photographs by Dr. David Clark, alongside Craig Lindsay and Andrew Robinson, shed more light on their authenticity. They all agreed that the images are indeed legitimate, adding another layer to this unfolding mystery.

    Many questions about the Calvin UFO sighting still remain unanswered, and as is often the case with such incidents, every answer seems to invite more questions. Was it a top-secret mission inadvertently discovered? Was it a sign that we’re not alone in the universe?

    In an era where technology is rapidly advancing, we’re starting to unlock some of these hidden truths and question the official narrative of events. With the recent disclosure of military footage and stories by the US government, we’re seeing a shift towards more transparency in the field of UFO sightings.

    As we continue to probe the mysteries of UFO sightings, we not only explore the realms of the unknown but also challenge our understanding of the universe. And who knows? The Calvin incident might just hold the key to proving once and for all that we are indeed not alone in the cosmos.

    The enduring mystery of the Calvin UFO sighting serves as a reminder that the quest for knowledge is never-ending. Whether you’re a UFO enthusiast or just a casual observer, the Calvin incident invites us all to keep questioning, keep exploring, and keep reaching for the stars.

    Physicist From Finland’s University Decodes Strange Crop Circle With A Binary Code & ET-Alien Face!

    Miia Pitkonen, a physicist at the University of Helsinki in Finland, offers a fascinating perspective. It’s a wonderful design, and it’s authentic, regardless of who you think designed it!

    Crop circles are a real phenomena, in case you didn’t know. It’s arguable how they’re made and who or what creates them, but the existence of smart, amazing, and incredibly convoluted designs “sown” into agricultural fields throughout the globe is undeniable. You should get chills looking at some of these designs, especially those shot from an airplane or helicopter.

    Why? The greatest explanation comes from Richard Taylor, a physicist at the University of Oregon. Despite his rejection of any supernatural explanation for the designs, he believes that this is “history’s greatest science-oriented art trend.” Because some of the stalks’ nodes have been blown through on one side, several of these designs have been tested in a laboratory environment. Crop circles are more than simply flattened crops, as many people believe. It’s self-evident that modern technology is being utilised.

    Microwave heating, which causes water inside the crop to evaporate and separate, has been used to simulate this ‘blasting’ activity. As a consequence, the stock completely switches sides. Based on the data he obtained in his investigation, Taylor concluded that crop circle painters are utilizing GPS devices, lasers, and microwaves to produce these incredible geometric designs.

    There will always be some who ignore any supernatural thought, but those who investigate the crop circle phenomenon further will find it impossible to deny that something strange is occurring. It is, in my opinion, self-evident.

    In 2002, a crop circle was discovered in a field near Crabwood, United Kingdom. That was correct. It’s been documented, videotaped, and photographed. A video may be found all over the internet. It received a lot of negative feedback and has been researched by a number of academics all around the globe. Aerial footage of the Crabwood circle was shot by Terje Toftenes, an award-winning Norwegian filmmaker and multimedia producer.

    Who could possibly do such a thing? Who could design a binary code in the middle of the night and implant a face into a crop in a couple of hours, leaving no entrance or departure traces but being aesthetically and mathematically precise?

    Miia Pitkonen is one of a number of researchers who have investigated this particular circle. She is a medical physicist with a degree from the University of Helsinki in Finland.

    She produced a paper titled “Crop Circles and Life at Parallel Space-Time Sheets,” indicating that she is fascinated by this occurrence. She examines the CraBwood crop circle in a two-part series.

    She goes on to say:

    “There are two halves to the crabwood message. A picture of an alien image and a spiral-like bit sequence that starts in the centre of the image and proceeds clockwise. [59, 60] It has been suggested that the message be encoded in 9-bit code, with 8-bit chunks following ASCII coding. The message is as follows based on this assumption:

    ‘Beware of those who deliver BROKEN PROMISES and FALSE GIFTS.’ There is a great deal of suffering, but there is yet time. EELI! UVE. THE WORLD IS A GOOD PLACE OUT THERE. DECEPTION IS NOT ONE OF OUR PRIORITIES. ‘CONDUIT CLOSURE’ is a term that refers to the closing of a conduit.

    Clearly, one or two incoherent words (EELI!UVE) are involved. There are two versions of the message on the internet. On Paul Vigay’s and Martin Keitel’s homepages, you may find oppose. Both options are described in further detail further below. Consider the possibility that the message comprises a far deeper layer than the ASCII code’s somewhat oracle-like statement, and that the little discrepancy’s appearance is supposed to suggest the existence of a higher level. These extraterrestrials want to say something very essential about themselves as living beings. The alien image that accompanies the byte sequence undoubtedly supports this theory. One of these incredibly crucial things is the code for turning normal DNA triplets to amino acids. Maybe the code for translating the strange RNA doublets to amino acid analogs. It’s possible that these analogs are electromagnetic waves. There might be other codes as well: about the same time that the Crabwood letter came, I devised a hierarchical system of cognitive codes based on Mersenne primes and regular polygons that could be constructed with just a compass and ruler.

    The initial notion is that the message should be represented by a universal code of some kind. The presence of three 3 = 9-bit code phrases that naturally decompose into three 3-bit sequences indicates the presence of a cognitive code analogous to genetic code. This estimate was crucial since it led to the discovery of the genetic code of unique RNA, and the deconstruction of three three-bit sections immediately revealed that RNA information was in dispute. However, it was determined that decoding the message using ASCII code is the proper method, with the ninth bit functioning just as a separator. The interpretation is based on the ASCII code’s general characteristics: capital and small letters represent amino acids, and capital and small versions of the same letter indicate the same amino acid. Control marks represent the amino-acidic equivalents of the coding related to the unique RNA. It doesn’t matter how the symbols are organized. Only the amounts of different sorts of symbols showing how many codewords are mapped to a given amino-acid (or any equivalent thereof) matter when using alternative types of symbols.”

    I’m aware that it’s a challenging task. The message was initially discovered to be encoded in ASCI binary code by Paul Vigay, a British computer consultant well-known for his work designing and maintaining RISC OS software and a long-time researcher in the field. He also worked on the film Signs with Mel Gibson, but unhappily died in an unusual way.

    “Be wary of people who give you misleading presents and don’t keep their promises.” There are many sufferings, yet there is still time. (This is a mangled phrase.) It’s a beautiful day outside. “Conduit switching off (bell sound)” is something we don’t tolerate.

    Below is another fantastic screenshot taken from a helicopter.

    Pitkonen’s research is rather thorough, claiming that the circle’s designers, whoever/whatever they are, may use this kind of specialized programming, among other things. One thing is certain: whoever designed this circle is very talented in terms of aesthetics, technology, and mathematics.

    The concluding piece of her article is seen here, and it echoes the same conclusion that many of us have reached: something special is occurring here.

    Pitkonen’s study also delves into and analyzes a 1974 transmission (dubbed the “Arecibo” message) created by Carl Sagan and his colleagues. At a special ceremony to honor the repair of Puerto Rico’s Arecibo radio telescope, it was launched into orbit using radio waves. It was the most powerful broadcast ever purposefully launched into space. It included a graphic message depicting our planet’s location in our solar system, important mathematics and scientific concepts, and the NASA antenna used to transmit the signal in the hopes that extraterrestrial intelligence would understand it. The letter also included details about us, such as our physical characteristics and DNA coding. The signal was a million times more powerful than a regular television transmission.

    In 2001, 27 years after the 1974 broadcast, a pattern resembling a response to it appeared near Britain’s largest telescope, the Chilbolton, and observatory, which contains the world’s largest fully steerable weather radar.

    The Final Word.

    Why is it that such discoveries and occurrences are derided in the media? Why doesn’t the mainstream acknowledge the facts revealed in this article while discussing the crop circle phenomenon? Why are they considered hoaxes yet some of the designs are so intricate, exact, and complicated that they baffle even the brightest brains on the planet? What’s going on here, exactly?

    Some aspects of our surroundings are so mind-altering that the human mind will often dismiss them out of hand. On a collective level, it is clear that we are not prepared to explore this phenomenon, and no matter how much evidence there is in favor of it, it is always treated with mockery and skepticism.

    Something extraordinary is happening here, and it has been for years. If we gradually but steadily open our minds to ideas that do not yet fit inside the framework of accepted knowledge, it might have far-reaching ramifications for mankind.

    A “LIVING FOSSIL” HAS BEEN DISCOVERED ALIVE IN CALIFORNIA’S COASTAL WATERS

    In 1938, a discovery was made off the eastern coast of South Africa that shook the science world. A peculiar fish was discovered among the day’s catches of a group of local fishermen, and fortunately, a museum curator named Marjorie Courtenay-Latimer was on hand and noticed the primeval-looking specimen. Upon contacting Rhodes University ichthyologist J.L.B. Smith and sending sketches she made of the fish, Smith dispatched an emergency responding cable that read, “Most Important Preserve Skeleton and Gills = Fish Described.”

    Smith’s urgency was based on the fact that, rather than being a new species, what Courtenay-Latimer had found was something he recognized… from the fossil record. Remarkably, the specimen appeared to be a variety of ancient fish known from the late Cretaceous period known as the Coelacanth, a kind of transitional species whose curious fins placed it someplace within the evolutionary lineage between fish and tetrapods.

    Since the famous discovery, several similar instances of “living fossils” have been discovered, and the most recent of these turned up in an unlikely place: off the southern coast of California.

    Discovered alive within the waters at Naples Point, slightly North of UC Santa Barbara, is a small variety of clam previously known only from the fossil record.

    Jeff Goddard, a research associate at the Marine Science Institute at UC Santa Barbara and co-author of a new paper detailing the discovery, says it is remarkable partly due to the location where the specimen was found.

    “It’s not all that common to find alive a species first known from the fossil record, especially in a region as well-studied as Southern California,” Goddard said in a statement released by the University.

    Comparing the find to the famous discovery of the Coelacanth in the late 1930s, Goddard notes that what he and his colleagues turned up at Naples Point doesn’t go quite as far back as the famous ancient fish did, “representing an entire class of animals thought to have disappeared 400 million years ago.”

    Still, Goddard notes that the remarkable little bivalve they found “does go back to the time of all those wondrous animals captured by the La Brea Tar Pits.”

    The discovery was made in November 2018, as Goddard had been searching under rocks at low tide for a variety of sea slugs when he noticed not one, but instead a pair of tiny, translucent clams. As he observed them, he noticed that they possessed a white-striped foot that exceeded the length of their shell. Goddard then realized that he recognized this species, even though that seemed impossible.

    Mirroring the Coelacanth discovery of almost a century earlier, Goddard, rather than procuring sketches, took high-quality images of the pair of bivalves, opting to leave the pair in their natural habitat. The images were immediately sent to Paul Valentich-Scott curator emeritus of malacology at the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History. Like Goddard, Valentich-Scott found the appearance of the little creatures intriguing, as they were unlike any of the well-known similar species along the California coast.

    Ultimately, it was decided that a specimen would be needed after all, but by the time Goddard returned to Naples Point in search of his new quarry, the mysterious clams proved more difficult to find a second time around. In fact, such would be the case over the course of several more failed attempts to rediscover the tiny creatures.

    After nine attempts over the course of the next several months, Goddard finally managed to relocate the creatures—this time a single clam—beneath a rock alongside two of the nudibranch sea slugs he had originally come to Naples Point in search of.

    Initially, Valentich-Scott thought they might have uncovered an entirely new species.

    “When I suspect something is a new species, I need to track back through all of the scientific literature from 1758 to the present,” the curator said in a statement announcing the discovery. “It can be a daunting task, but with experience it can go pretty quickly.”

    After pouring over data in the museum’s collections, including fossils of similar species known from California’s prehistoric coasts, the two researchers uncovered drawings of a variety of bivalve, Bornia cooki, first described in 1937—just two years prior to the rediscovery of the Coelacanth—which looked like a match for the tiny, long-footed California clams Goddard had found.

    After comparisons between the original fossils discovered by George Willett in the 1930s with the new specimen, as well as a single shell Goddard retrieved during a subsequent visit, a positive match was confirmed: Willet’s original discovery, now given the classification Cymatioa cooki, was indeed still alive in California’s coastal waters. Another living fossil had been confirmed.

    Noting the intertidal boulder fields that cover broad ranges of the California coast, Goddard says he thinks it’s likely that the newly rediscovered “living fossil” Cymatioa cooki is “probably living in close association with animals burrowing beneath those boulders.”

    “There is such a long history of shell-collecting and malacology in Southern California,” Goddard says, admitting that “it’s hard to believe no one found even the shells of our little cutie.” Indeed, sometimes the most remarkable discoveries turn up right under our noses, and in Goddard’s case, quite by accident.

    Goddard and Valentich-Scott’s remarkable discovery was the subject of a recent paper published in the journal ZooKeys.

    Parker Solar Probe Flies Close Enough to the Sun to See the Source of the Fast Solar Wind

    Where does the solar wind come from? That’s a question solar physicists have wanted an answer to for decades. Now, the Parker Solar Probe is showing them exactly where this stream of particles exits our star on a journey out through interplanetary space.

    Parker follows an orbit that takes it very close to the Sun. For any other spacecraft, such a pass would be the kiss of death. But, this probe was built for close approaches so that it can gather in-situ data about the outer atmosphere (called the corona) and strange “breaks” in the corona called coronal holes. That’s how it was able to peer directly at features on the Sun that create so-called “fast” solar winds.

    The Secret of Fast Solar Winds

    A team of scientists led by Stuart D. Bale (University of California, Berkeley, and James Drake of the University of Maryland-College Park, said Parker detected streams of high-energy particles that match so-called “supergranulation” flows inside coronal holes.

    In particular, the probe recorded an activity called “magnetic reconnection” that creates that fast wind component. Think of coronal holes like solar shower heads. Instead of water, jets of energized particles emerge out of the Sun and travel along magnetic field lines. When magnetic fields of two different polarities encounter each other in these showerhead “funnels”, the magnetic fields can break. Then they rapidly reconnect, and that energetic activity blasts charged particles out into space as part of the fast solar wind.

    “The photosphere is covered by convection cells, like in a boiling pot of water, and the larger scale convection flow is called supergranulation,” Bale said. “Where these supergranulation cells meet and go downward, they drag the magnetic field in their path into this downward kind of funnel. The magnetic field becomes very intensified there because it’s just jammed. It’s kind of a scoop of the magnetic field going down into a drain. And the spatial separation of those little drains, those funnels, is what we’re seeing now with the solar probe.”

    This image of granulation in the solar photosphere is produced by the Daniel K. Inouye solar telescope. Each cell-like structure transports heat from the interior of the Sun to the surface. Between them are dark lanes that show markers of magnetic fields like the ones Parker probed in its search for the origins of the fast solar wind. Credit: NSO/AURA/NSF.

    Interestingly, Bale said that while the reconnection in the funnels is providing the energy for the solar wind, it only seems to happen in specific areas of the coronal hole. “It comes from these little bundles of magnetic energy that are associated with the convection flows,” he said. “Our results, we think, are strong evidence that it’s reconnection that’s doing that.”

    About the Solar Wind

    Astronomers have known about the solar wind ever since astronomers Richard C. Harrington and Richard Hodgson first observed solar flares in 1859. Carrington then made the connection between that outburst and a geomagnetic storm that impacted Earth a day later. Other scientists such as Arthur Eddington, Kristian Birkeland, and Ludwig Biermann, continued to study the phenomenon. Still others noticed that this solar activity seemed to affect comet plasma tails. That phenomenon is quite well-understood thanks to decades of comet observations and correlations with data from such probes as the Ulysses spacecraft, the Halley Armada, and others.

    The solar wind streams out from the Sun in all directions. It varies in its density (that is, the amount of particles it carries), temperature, and speed. These variations show up across all solar latitudes and longitudes. They also change over time.

    Generally, this wind exists in a fast (or high-speed) component and a slow one. Both these regimes affect not just comets, but planets in the solar system. For example, it causes “space weather” on Earth, aurorae on Jupiter and Saturn, and has eroded the Martian atmosphere.

    The fast solar wind generally speeds along at around 750 kilometers per second, while the slower component moves at around 300-500 kilometers per second. Both of these components seem to have slightly different origins. The slow-speed wind seems to come from the Sun’s “streamer” belt, which is roughly near the equator. The fast solar wind comes from those coronal holes that Parker has probed in great detail.

    Coronal Holes Redux

    These aren’t really “holes” in the sense of a physical “hole in the Sun.” They’re actually areas where magnetic field lines emerge from the photosphere of the Sun without looping back inward. Instead, they remain as open field lines that expand outward and fill most of the space around the Sun. Coronal holes usually camp out at the poles during the Sun’s quiet periods. That means the fast solar wind they generate usually doesn’t encounter Earth. However, every 11 years, the Sun’s activity levels ramp up as its magnetic field flips. During those times of heightened activity, coronal holes can show up all over the surface. During this period of “solar maximum”, the bursts of high-speed solar wind can end up aimed directly at Earth.

    For a long time, solar physicists didn’t know exactly how the process of solar wind generation in coronal holes works. That’s because the solar wind has to pass through the Sun’s corona. By the time it reaches Earth and other solar observatories, that stream is just a blur of charged particles.

    A flattened map of the sun’s entire surface, or corona, imaged in extreme ultraviolet wavelengths by the NASA Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) satellite. The two dark regions below the middle of the image are the coronal holes sampled by the Parker Solar Probe. Flows in the solar atmosphere create intense, complex magnetic fields that annihilate and produce the pressure and energy to overcome solar gravity and send high-energy particles outwar. That creates the fast solar wind.

    Tracking the Birthplaces of the Fast Solar Wind

    On its recent close flyby, Parker came within 25 solar radii (21 million km) of the Sun. During that pass, the probe specifically zeroed in on coronal holes. That’s when it was able to see the fine “funnel structures” that generate the high-speed flow. Nour Raouafi, the Parker Solar Probe project scientist at the Applied Physics Laboratory says those funnel structures probably are related to bright jetlets that can be seen from Earth within coronal holes.

    “Solving the mystery of the solar wind has been a six-decade dream of many generations of scientists,” said Raouafi. “Now, we are grasping at the physical phenomenon that drives the solar wind at its source — the corona.”

    Peering into the birthplaces of the fast solar wind isn’t just an exercise in solar physics. The data from Parker (along with other solar observatories in space and on the ground) is invaluable when it comes to predicting solar storms. The solar wind plays a huge role in those geomagnetic disturbances that can wreak havoc with satellites, communications systems, and electrical power grids on Earth.

    “Winds carry lots of information from the Sun to Earth, so understanding the mechanism behind the sun’s wind is important for practical reasons on Earth,” Drake said. “That’s going to affect our ability to understand how the sun releases energy and drives geomagnetic storms, which are a threat to our communication networks.”

    Parker’s Future in the Solar Wind

    The Parker Solar Probe’s mission began in 2018. It will make 24 orbits around the Sun before mid-2025. The closest it will come to the Sun is around 8.8 solar radii above the surface. That’s a distance of about 6.5 million kilometers. If it gets any closer, the heat and tremendous radiation will fry the delicate instruments it uses to study the Sun.

    As it is, Parker is doing most of its work now that the Sun is in its period of solar maximum. While that’s an exciting time, heightened solar activity could threaten the spacecraft or obscure some of these finely detailed processes that the team is trying to study.

    EXCLUSIVE: Marine vet breaks 14-year silence to make astonishing claim that his six-man unit saw a hovering octagonal UFO being loaded with WEAPONS by unmarked US forces who threatened them at gunpoint while serving in Indonesia in 2009

    • Former Marine Michael Herrera tells DailyMail.com that he saw a UFO being loaded with weapons while serving in Indonesia in 2009 
    • Herrera claims an Air Force lieutenant colonel told him, 'You're not allowed to talk about what happened. You will go to prison, or you will die' 
    • He says he was emboldened to break his 14-year silence by new UFO whistleblower protections and in April testified under oath about his wild story 

    A former Marine claims he and five comrades saw a flying saucer being loaded with weapons while serving in Indonesia in 2009 – and was threatened at gunpoint by unmarked US forces at the scene.

    The wild story comes after an Air Force whistleblower from the government's UFO office joined growing numbers of intelligence officials claiming the US has recovered and is even reverse-engineering crashed or landed 'non-human' spacecraft.

    Michael Herrera was a 20-year-old rifleman sent on a Navy humanitarian mission during the 2009 Sumatra earthquake and tsunami that devastated the region.

    In an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com, he claims that while guarding an airdrop of aid supplies outside the city of Padang in October that year, his six-man unit stumbled across a hovering octagonal craft in apparent use by clandestine US forces.

    'The craft was rotating in a clockwise motion while changing colors. It had an audible hum to it, like the sound of a transformer or a guitar amp. It was an octagonal shape with a pyramid at the top of it that was black,' Herrera said

    After 14 years of silence, Herrera was emboldened by new UFO whistleblower protections and in April testified under oath to the government's UFO investigation team, the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), as well as a Senate committee.

    He provided his unblemished four-year service record, and texts about the incident with an alleged fellow witness – who refused to talk, saying it was 'not worth my life or jeopardizing my family'.

    Peripheral aspects of his account were verified by DailyMail.com using military sources. But Herrera, 33, does not have documentation or photos of the incident itself.

    The Denver native joined the Marines fresh out of high school. He had been serving for less than two years when he was deployed to the Philippines as a member of the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit to help distribute aid in the wake of a typhoon.

    When a 7.6 magnitude earthquake struck Sumatra on September 30, 2009, his 2nd Battalion, 5th Marines, Echo Co. 2nd Platoon was rerouted to help guard helicopter aid drops around Padang City, beset by violence from local insurgents.

    Around October 8 he and five marines were dropped off at a clearing in the north eastern part of the city by a CH-53 chopper, and hiked 900ft up a ridge to take their positions for the incoming supply drop, Herrera said.

    It was then he spotted a strange object in the jungle on the other side of the hill.

    'I could see something moving and rotating. It was changing colors between a very light matte gray to a very dark matte black,' he said. 'It stuck out like a sore thumb.'

    Oddly, he said, they had not been given radios, so instead of calling it in they edged down the hill in formation to investigate, while Herrera snapped photos and video on his Panasonic camera.

    'The thing was massive, the size of a football field,' Herrera told DailyMail.com.

    'The craft was rotating in a clockwise motion while changing colors. It had an audible hum to it, like the sound of a transformer or a guitar amp. It was an octagonal shape with a pyramid at the top of it that was black.

    'It had 'scales' that were on the outside of the craft that covered the whole craft. It had seams and sharp edges which I suspect to be man-made. Nothing on it was smooth. It had some panels on the vertical edges that were like Vantablack.'

    According to AARO's statistics of UFO reports between 1996 and 2023, only 1% are polygons (like an octagon), 2% disk-shaped, while 52% are orbs or spherical.

    However, an object shot down in February over Lake Huron, Michigan by F-16 fighter jets – after their first missile missed – was described as 'octagonal' by congress members briefed on the incident.

    Herrera claimed that when he and his five comrades got within 150 feet of the craft, they were ambushed by eight men wearing all-black camouflage, bullet-proof vests, wielding M4 rifles with high-end night vision attachments given to elite US troops.

    'They had their weapons drawn on us,' he said. 'We could audibly hear their weapon safety levers flipping off safe.'

    'Who the f*** are you guys? What are you doing here?' two of them yelled with American accents, he said.

    'They said we weren't supposed to be there, and that they could kill us.'

    As the men continued to threaten them, took the marines' weapons, dumped their ammunition and scanned their military IDs, Herrera said he saw others loading 'large weapon cases' and other containers from modified Ford F350 trucks onto a platform beneath the craft.

    'When the last two trucks finished unloading and drove off, the lower part of the platform rose off the ground to about 10 feet and the craft lowered to meet it and it came together into one piece,' he said.

    'On the corners of the craft, it had lights that were changing between blue, red, yellow and green.

    'It rose off the ground and a little past the trees, then shot off to our left towards the ocean at around 4,000mph.

    'We can't believe this is f***ing happening. From a dead stop, it didn't make any sound like a sonic boom, it didn't disturb the trees like rotor wash would. We could see coconuts on the trees and none of them were disturbed.'

    Herrera said the eight unmarked soldiers gave them back their unloaded guns and marched them back over the hill, 'still telling us how they could kill us.'

    'Once we got over the hill they told us to get the f*** away from here and don't look back.'

    Herrera left the Navy in October 2011, his certificate of release showing four years of active duty and medals for 'national defense service', 'global war on terrorism service', 'humanitarian service', 'sea service deployment' and a 'sharpshooter rifle badge'

    The six marines ran back to the aid drop site and were scolded by their gunnery sergeant for returning early, Herrera said, adding that they all kept quiet about the disturbing encounter.

    'I was f***ing scared,' the veteran said. 'I was thinking: I could have been killed, how the hell am I going to explain this?'

    Back on the USS Denver, Herrera's unit were debriefed by a rear admiral he didn't recognize. He said it was odd to have such a high-ranking officer there, and again none of them mentioned the saucer and unmarked troops.

    A few days later they were docked in Subic Bay in the Philippines, the marine said. After an evening of drinking with his colleagues, he returned to find his camera's card and battery removed from his locked locker, along with his five comrades' phones missing.

    In early December 2009 he was back at Camp Hansen in Okinawa, Japan. He was told to report to the office, where he found an Air Force lieutenant colonel in full uniform but no name tag.

    'He starts telling me, 'You're not allowed to talk about what happened, not to your chain of command, not even a general,' Herrera said. 'You will go to prison, or you will die.'

    'He told me to keep my mouth shut and slid a paper to me which was an NDA. The only thing I can recall is that it said 'TS/SCI', Top Secret/Sensitive Compartmented Information. And it had Indonesia on it.'

    The rifleman said he signed and was told to 'get the f*** out of there'.

    'I ran back to the barracks and haven't talked about it ever since. It's something I've kept secret for almost 14 years. But I've thought about it every single day.'

    He left the Navy in October 2011, his certificate of release showing four years of active duty and medals for 'national defense service', 'global war on terrorism service', 'humanitarian service', 'sea service deployment' and a 'sharpshooter rifle badge'.

    Herrera made several million dollars as an entrepreneur and now runs a private security company called Valkyrie Eye.

    New UFO whistleblower protections enacted in December prompted the ex-marine to finally tell his story.

    Last year's annual military funding bill, the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), included a new clause allowing whistleblowers to report previously undisclosed UFO 'material retrieval, material analysis, [and] reverse engineering' programs to the Pentagon's AARO team without fear of prosecution for violating their security oaths and non-disclosure agreements.

    Herrera said in 2017 he met UFO activist Dr. Steven Greer at a conference, and Greer helped persuade him to talk and connected him with congressional and AARO staffers earlier this year.

    Herrera is also planning to tell his story at a press conference at the National Press Club in Washington DC on Monday organized by Greer, alongside four other UFO witnesses.

    The ex-marine claims his five former comrades are too scared to come forward.

    In a May 3 text message, one wrote: 'this is asking to[o] much of me and it's not worth the risk.'

    'It's not worth my life or jeopardizing my family. I know we go way back, but this is asking to[o] much. You need to get out of whatever you are in and don't get me involved with this mess. My career isn't worth helping you. Don't ask me to do this s**t ever again.'

    DailyMail.com verified the sender was a marine serving in the same unit in 2009.

    'It sounds a bit like science fiction, but it actually is science fact,' Greer told DailyMail.com. 'These breakthroughs have been kept very, very secret, much to the detriment of the American people and the planet.

    'We feel it's very important that the public understand this is not just a silly story about Little Green Men. This has very significant implications for the environment, for energy independence, for global poverty.'

    Greer and his organization, the Disclosure Project, gained international attention as well as derision in 2001 when he gathered 20 retired Air Force, Federal Aviation Administration and intelligence officers at the National Press Club to tell their stories of extraordinary UFO and alien encounters. 

    The 2001 conference did not spark congressional hearings as Greer hoped.

    Leslie Kean, an investigative journalist who was the first to bring Air Force whistleblower David Grusch forward to make his bombshell claims in her story in engineering news site The Debrief this week, said she was skeptical of Greer's approach in an interview with the New Yorker in 2021.

    'There were some good people at that conference, but some of them were making outrageous, grandiose claims,' Kean said. 'I knew then that I had to walk away.'

    Grusch has also reportedly released a statement distancing himself from Greer, after Greer claimed that he met with the senior military intelligence official in March 2022 in Culpeper, Virginia.

    'I took my job very seriously, and early on, I allowed various individuals that alleged they had information to speak their truth as part of my evaluation process,' Grush reportedly said in a statement published on Twitter by UFO researcher Vinnie Adams this week. 

    'I emphatically request that Steven Greer cease using my name to promote his personal agenda.'

    The former ER doctor spent the two decades following his 2001 press conference collecting UFO witnesses, and has now assembled a database of 746 people in or related to the US government.

    Some have detailed and compelling stories and have even testified to AARO. Others are merely senior officials who made public statements acknowledging the possibility of UFOs having non-human origins. According to the database, 76 have passed away.

    He will also be unveiling a 'Disclosure Project Intelligence Archive' with 'over 5 terabytes of government documents, whistleblower testimony and specific locations of illegally operated UFO projects,' according to a press release.

    Greer has become a controversial figure even among UFO enthusiasts, making disputed claims and charging up to $3,500 for group sessions where he purports to teach and perform summonings of extraterrestrials using psychic powers.

    A video of one of his 'contact' events in Vero Beach, Florida on January 27 2015 shows a light appearing over the Atlantic ocean which Greer attributed to aliens.

    A July 2020 article by the Washington Examiner questioned whether it was in fact faked with a flare dropped from a Beech 76 Duchess plane that was flying offshore at that time. 

    Prominent figures have chided Greer over his statements, including late sixth man on the moon Edgar Mitchell who said Greer would 'overreach his data continuously', and former CIA director James Woolsey who wrote that a 1993 'briefing' Greer claimed he gave Woolsey was merely a 'distorted account of a dinner party'.

    Greer called the allegations 'ridiculous and untrue', and said his Monday press conference was about the witnesses, not him.

    'I would give anything to have someone else do this so I don't have to. But I don't see that happening,' he said.

    'I just say the track record of what we've done over 30 years stands on its own.'

    Former Marine witnessed UFO being loaded with weapons by unmarked US forces in Indonesie

    Isn't it striking that these days we hear new revelations almost daily about UFOs and non-human beings that have been witnessed by civilians and the military, like the former intelligence official who claimed that the U.S. has retrieved craft of non-human origin and the bizarre story of a Las Vegas family who claimed that they saw aliens after something crashed in their backyard. 

    Yet, just two days later again two new amazing stories; of a former Marine who witnessed a hovering octagonal UFO being loaded with weapons by unmarked US forces in Indonesia and military individuals who claim that not only the US has a secret UFO retrieval program but that 12 or more non human space craft in custody of the U S Government. 
    Regardless of whether all these confessions are true or false, the question is for how long the Government as well as the Cabal can keep secret the existence of their own UFO program and the existence of non human craft. The larger and more complex a program is, the more difficult it becomes to keep it a secret. If the UFO program involves a significant number of individuals, resources, and facilities, the chances of leaks or disclosures increase. 
    At first there is the former Marine, Michael Herrera, who has recently broken a 14-year silence to make an astonishing claim about an incident that allegedly took place during his service in Indonesia in 2009. According to Herrera, he and his five comrades witnessed a hovering octagonal UFO being loaded with weapons by unmarked US forces. He further alleges that they were threatened at gunpoint by these unidentified personnel. 
    Herrera, who was 20 years old at the time, was deployed on a Navy humanitarian mission following the Sumatra earthquake and tsunami. In an interview with DailyMail.com, he describes how his six-man unit encountered the mysterious craft while guarding an airdrop of aid supplies outside the city of Padang in October 2009. 
    Herrera said that the UFO was rotating in a clockwise motion, changing colors, and emitting an audible hum resembling that of a transformer or a guitar amp. It had an octagonal shape with a black pyramid at the top. 
    And second, it seems as there are 12 or more non human space craft in custody of the U S Government. 
    According to sott.net, this is not the first time government officials have suggested that the U.S. may possess alien spaceships. "I was told for decades that Lockheed had some of these retrieved materials," said the late Senator Harry Reid, who fought for greater disclosure. 
    Former deputy assistant secretary of Defense for Intelligence, Christopher Mellon, recently reported that he has spoken to more than four witnesses who say they know of "a secret U.S. government program involving the analysis and exploitation of materials recovered from off-world craft. 
    The individuals said they had seen or been presented with "credible" and "verifiable" evidence that the U.S. government, and U.S. military contractors, possess at least 12 or more alien space crafts, some of which they shared with AARO, which AARO has refused to provide to Congress. 
    Some of the same sources who shared information with former intelligence official Grusch, as well as others, spoke to public about retrieved spacecraft that they say is in the possession of the U.S. government. "I know of at least 12-15 craft and every five years, we get one or two recovered for one reason or another, from either a landing or that we catch, or they just crash." said one person.

As countless individuals report strange occurrences in the sky, the quest to understand and decode these inexplicable phenomena grows. This article aims to shed light on the enigmatic subject of UFO sightings, giving particular attention to a peculiar case involving a flying silver orb, based on intriguing footage recorded on a popular show, ‘The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch.’

    UFO Sightings: A Brief Overview

    Unidentified Flying Objects, or UFOs, have long been associated with the prospect of extraterrestrial life. Reports of unusual, often unexplainable aerial phenomena date back to ancient times, and modern accounts of UFO sightings continue to stoke interest, speculation, and investigation.

    In the wake of escalating incidents of UFO sightings, scientists, enthusiasts, and skeptics alike are always on the lookout for concrete evidence, focusing on the meticulous examination of each reported encounter. One such intriguing case unfolded in the south field of Skinwalker Ranch, leaving even seasoned investigators bewildered.

    The Silver Orb at Skinwalker Ranch

    Set in the isolated expanses of Utah, the enigmatic Skinwalker Ranch is infamous for its paranormal activities and UFO sightings. In an incident during the show’s fourth season, a routine security check led to the startling discovery of a silver orb, captured inexplicably in broad daylight.

    The crew had installed game cameras in the area following an incident involving a mysterious purple light. To their astonishment, they found footage of a quick, bright flash that materialized into a silver orb for just one frame before disappearing.

    Upon detailed analysis, the silver orb appeared to be a substantial, possibly metallic object moving at a remarkable speed. Its single-frame appearance suggested an almost imperceptible velocity, adding another layer to the fascinating puzzle of UFO sightings.

    Implications of the Skinwalker Ranch UFO Sightings

    This event not only added to the trove of UFO sightings at Skinwalker Ranch but also underscored the need for more extensive surveillance. The ranch crew decided to deploy more assets and spend more time monitoring the south field, the epicenter of recent odd occurrences, including a strange burnt post and a dead deer.

    Probing into the World of UFO Sightings

    The sighting of the silver orb during broad daylight at Skinwalker Ranch symbolizes the enigma that surrounds UFO sightings. While concrete evidence remains elusive, such incidents continue to fascinate us, fueling the ongoing search for answers.

    The growing interest in UFO sightings has inspired a slew of scientific investigations, documentaries, and even government reports. However, the truth remains out there, waiting to be discovered.

    From casual sky gazers to professional investigators, UFO sightings continue to enthral everyone. The mystery of the silver orb at Skinwalker Ranch adds to this ever-growing catalogue of unexplained phenomena, reminding us that our quest to understand the unknown is far from over.

    Every account of UFO sightings offers potential clues to answering humankind’s age-old question: Are we alone in the universe? While the answer remains uncertain, the exploration, the curiosity, and the relentless pursuit of understanding remain a testament to the human spirit.

    Whether a believer in the extraterrestrial or a fascinated observer, remember to keep an eye on the skies. You never know when the next noteworthy episode of UFO sightings might unfold, possibly providing new insights into the mysteries of our vast universe.

    Supernatural, Weird, And Other-Worldly | @AAM2018

    Ex-Pentagon David Grusch: ‘We Have Dead Pilot Bodies From Extraterrestrial Craft’

    Nobody would have ever thought that an individual from the US military with high credibility can come out and say we have partially intact extraterrestrial crafts. David Charles Grusch, a Former UAP Task Force member and US Air Force veteran, claims that the government, its allies, and defense contractors have been recovering partial fragments and intact vehicles related to these phenomena for decades.

    According to Mr. Grusch, analysis of these objects has revealed their “exotic origin” and suggests the presence of non-human intelligence, whether extraterrestrial or of unknown origin. This determination is based on vehicle morphologies, material science testing, unique atomic arrangements, and radiological signatures.

    Leslie Kean and Ralph Blumenthal, the New York Times reporters, are the first people who broke the story of Mr. Grusch. On June 5, 2023, they published an exclusive article in The Debrief, stating Mr. Grusch gave Congress and the Intelligence Community Inspector General extensive classified information about deeply covert programs that he says possess retrieved intact and partially intact craft of non-human origin.

    In an exclusive interview with investigative journalist Ross Coulthart, Grusch, a 36-year-old Air Force veteran, exposed the top-secret military program that allegedly discovered fully intact UFO wreckage. During the interview, Mr. Grusch made bold claims about the existence of UFOs and their non-human origin.

    He stated: “UFOs exist. The U.S. government found quite a number of them, and they are indeed of non-human origin.” Mr. Grusch’s assertions are supported by his insider knowledge as a former member of the U.S. government’s Unidentified Aerial Phenomena task force and the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency.

    Mr. Grusch discussed the classified nature of the program, saying: “For years, there have been whispers and rumors that the government had aircraft of non-human origin. This report is the first evidence it might be true.” He emphasized the secrecy surrounding the program, claiming that much of the information has been kept hidden from Congress and the public.

    In the interview, Mr. Grusch described the retrieval of non-human origin technical vehicles, referring to them as spacecraft. He explained: “These are retrieving non-human origin technical vehicles, you know, call it spacecraft if you will. Non-human exotic origin vehicles that have either landed or crashed.” When asked about the number of such craft, Mr. Grusch astonishingly replied, “Quite a number. [You’re kidding?] No, I thought it was totally nuts at first.”

    Mr. Grusch revealed that his initial skepticism had been challenged when current and former senior intelligence officers confided in him about their involvement in the program. He stated: “They approached me. I have plenty of current and former senior intelligence officers that came to me, many of whom I knew almost my whole career, that confided to me they were part of a program.” He also mentioned receiving oral testimony, documents, and other proof supporting the existence of the program.

    During the interview, Mr. Grusch spoke about the potential cover-up and disinformation campaign surrounding UFOs. He claimed: “There’s a sophisticated disinformation campaign targeting the U.S. populace, which is extremely unethical and immoral.” Mr. Grusch emphasized the significance of his revelations, stating, “I am for real, and I’m sitting here at great personal risk and obvious professional risk by talking to you today.”

    “Do we have bodies? Do we have species?” Coulthart asked. “Well, naturally when you recover something that’s either landed or crashed, sometimes you encounter dead pilots.” “And believe it or not, as fantastical as that sounds, it’s true,” Mr. Grusch replied.

    While Mr. Grusch’s claims are extraordinary, journalist Leslie Kean stated: “I believe it because of all the sources I have who have told me the same thing. So who am I to doubt these very, very high-level people who have been inside these programs for decades?” Kean emphasized that Grusch’s credibility is further bolstered by the fact that multiple high-ranking individuals have publicly vouched for him.

    Despite Grusch’s testimony and the support he has garnered, the Pentagon released a statement in response to the report. The statement from the Pentagon’s All Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (ARRO) said that no verifiable information has been discovered to substantiate claims of past or current programs involving extraterrestrial materials. However, ARRO acknowledged ongoing investigations and welcomed individuals with relevant information to come forward.

    Soon after The Debrief’s exclusive publication on Mr. Grusch, Dutch website REVU journalist Max Moszkowicz disclosed that David Grusch has documents signed by the inspector general, indicating that one of the UFOs in US Holding was found in Sicily, Italy and taken from Mussolini during WW2.

    Moszkowicz stated that in 1933, fascist dictator Benito Mussolini was briefed by his secret service about a crashed air vehicle that was not recognized as human. It is suggested that the Italians initially believed the UFO to be a secret weapon from Germany, but it was later discovered to be of unknown origin. The object was studied in an Italian variant of Area 51 and eventually transported to the United States, possibly to Area 51/S-4.

    Read also:

    The claims of the UFO coverup directly come from the documents released from Mussolini’s office. According to them, Mussolini took all measures to silence the witnesses and classified the craft as top secret. Studying the craft was Mussolini’s next top objective. The best engineers and scientists in Italy came together to form a top-secret organization that was allegedly commanded by radio inventor and renowned engineer Guglielmo Marconi. (Click here to read the full article)

    In an interview with Moszkowicz, a former AATIP Director Lue Elizondo gave this rumor some credit by saying he had seen documents from Mussolini’s office that he had found “compelling” before theorizing (as per the rumor) that pieces of the craft were transported to the USA. Mr. Sharp claimed that he has a source in the aerospace industry who told Liberation Times that something was recovered from Italy following World War II.

    In an interview with French paper le Parisien, Mr. Grusch claims that the United States and its allies have been involved in secret programs for almost ninety years, recovering fragments and intact non-human objects. These objects have been subjected to analysis, which has provided proof of their non-human origin.

    When asked about the origin of these objects, Mr. Grusch suggests they could be extraterrestrial or from other dimensions as described by quantum mechanics. He mentions that he has not seen enough data to determine the exact origin and believes that the U.S. government likely possesses more information on the matter.

    Grusch reveals that one of the recovered “ships” was found in Italy in 1933. It was described as a bell-like craft, approximately ten meters in size, and was kept by Mussolini’s government until 1944 when it was recovered by agents of the Office of Strategic Services (OSS). Mr. Grusch states that this particular case predates well-known incidents like Roswell. He indicates that he was authorized to talk about it by the Department of Defense’s Office of Prepublication and Security Review.

    Regarding his concerns about conspiracy theories, Grusch acknowledges the possibility of encouraging unfounded theories but points out that what was once a conspiracy theory has turned out to be true in this case.

    Although Grusch mentions having seen interesting things that he is not currently authorized to discuss publicly, he confirms the involvement of a handful of U.S. subcontractors in reverse engineering, primarily from the Five Eyes alliance countries (Canada, the UK, Australia, and New Zealand). He suggests that the potential uses of the studied materials could benefit advanced space programs, materials science, and other applications related to climate or health.

    Mr. Grusch mentions that his freedom of speech is still limited by his confidentiality agreement with the U.S. government, preventing him from discussing classified information. He indicates that he has faced reprisals after alerting the Department of Defense Inspector General in 2021 but cannot provide many details due to the ongoing investigation.

    When asked about his personal safety, Grusch acknowledges past threats and the risks involved in remaining anonymous or becoming a public figure. Despite the risks, he believes it is worth raising awareness and push for answers from elected representatives and the president. He plans to publish more information in the future and establish a non-profit foundation to facilitate scientific research and protocols on this subject within the university system.

    1941 Missouri UFO Crash

    Missouri UFO Crash: Reverend Saw Three Dead Aliens & Their Spaceship

    Before Roswell, a UFO crash and alien cover-up incident had already happened. A reverend was called to what he believed to be a plane crash in 1941 to read the last rites of the passengers. The story took a quick turn after the reverend found that the crashed vehicle was not anything like he had seen before and the bodies of the deceased were unlike humans.

    A report of a purported 1941 UFO crash at Cape Girardeau was published in 1991 by the late Leonard Stringfield, a pioneering UFO investigator and former civilian adviser to UFO activities at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio, in the 1950s. The article by Stringfield was published in the July 1991 issue of his “Status Report,” a monthly journal on UFO studies and activities.

    The article was based on the information received from Charlette Mann, a former resident of Cape Girardeau who told Stringfield the tale of what her grandfather had experienced 40 years earlier, in the 1980s. The topic of the UFO crash in Cape Girardeau has been the subject of extensive inquiry.

    A local sheriff visited the reverend William Huffman in April 1941, while he was the pastor of the Red Star Baptist Church in Cape Girardeau, Missouri, which is located along the Mississippi River. The reverend was invited by the sheriff to conduct a memorial ceremony for those who had perished in a plane crash that supposedly occurred on the same day close to the city.

    A car arrived for Reverend Huffman to take him to the location of the incident, which was about 18 miles outside of Cape Girardeau, closer to the Chaffee region near the current Redstar Baptist Church location. The place was full of police officers, FBI agents, firefighters, military men, and doctors, and there was debris from some kind of aircraft.

    When they arrived, they discovered the aircraft was actually a silver round disc flying saucer that crashed and was all in flames. Police and firefighters responded to the location and extinguished the fire in a nearby farmer’s field.

    Reverend Huffman had never seen anything like this. He tried looking inside the destroyed object through a huge hole that was at the outer surface of the object. He saw there a small metal chair, some instruments and consoles with dials, and also many other things that he had never seen before, which it would be very difficult for him to describe.

    Reverend Huffman found himself praying over three extraterrestrial beings after their flying saucer struck the ground in a rural Cape Girardeau field. Cape Girardeau UFO researcher Michael Huntington said: “About that time, the army air corps arrived from Sikeston Field and cordoned off the area and swore everybody to secrecy and confiscated any pictures. There were pictures allegedly taken that night of men holding one of the alien bodies and somewhere out there are those pictures.”

    According to the reverend, the creatures had tiny mouths with indistinguishable noses and no ears at all. They were wearing tight suits that looked like chewed aluminum foil. When Huffman finished his prayers, several military men approached him and told him to keep his mouth shut about that incident.

    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 1984, Mrs. Huffman, dying of cancer, told her granddaughter Charlette Mann about everything. She also said that her husband somehow managed to secretly take a photo of one of the dead aliens from an unknown man. Charlette said “…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.”

    That picture went missing years ago after her grandfather loaned it to a friend, who never returned it. But seeing that picture and knowing the integrity of her grandfather, Charlotte believed the story was true. But she never had any proof until a few years ago while doing research for a documentary on the crash.

    Gillian Sheridan from KLTV Television station wrote: “We got validation by going to the archives in Washington D.C. And to see a top-secret declassified document that stated that there was in fact a crash retrieval in 1941 in Cape Girardeau, Missouri, for me, I have not forgotten holding that paper in my hand and realizing that my families story was real, was solid, and for me was just an answer to a long time question.”

    According to UFO journalist B.J. Booth, “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.” (Source)

    Another UFO researcher Ryan Wood said 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 has done intensive research on this incident, hence concluded: “After working on this case for about two years and talking with Charlette Mann on numerous occasions either briefly on the phone, over dinner, or in front of a television camera her story, demeanor, and integrity provided no hints of deception or confabulation… Adding more weight to the validity of the story is the highly believable and likely authentic leaked military and Presidential documents [provided by Tim Cooper) that support a crash retrieval in 1941…”

    “Ryan has searched several potential crash-site areas for small pieces of wreckage, without success. But he reports that famous “remote viewing” expert Joe McMoneagle says there are recoverable pieces of wreckage at the site. Further, according to Ryan, well-known “psychic detective Annette Martin has “confirmed much of Huffman’s story.” (Source: Skeptics UFO Newsletter By Philip J. Klass)

    The FBI responded to Television station KFVS12’s request by stating: “We were unable to identify records responsive to your request.” The United States Air Force had a similar response and said they “researched their files and found no documentation concerning this event.” Air Force officials also said “a review of the histories for the Air Corps Training Detachment at Sikeston, Missouri was undertaken. Regrettably, no mention was found in the official unit histories regarding such an incident.”(Source)

    Is this the moment an alien photobombed the Red Arrows? Airshow audience are shocked to spot '1,000mph' UFO in middle of ace pilots' flying formation

    • Spectators at Torbay Airshow spot UFO said to be travelling at '1,000mph' through Red Arrows formation
    • UFO investigator John Mooner believes the black object was caused by 'non-human intelligence' 

    A UFO dubbed by some spectators as an 'alien craft' has been snapped photobombing a Red Arrow display in jaw-dropping new photos.

    John Mooner, a UFO investigator, who took the pictures at the Torbay Airshow in Paignton last weekend, claimed that a black object flying at '1,000mph' through the pilots' formation was the work of 'non-human intelligence'.

    Mr Mooner, from Newton Abbott, said he went to the airshow was to see if he could capture any 'anomalous objects' near the aircraft.

    He said: 'I had been capturing them all week near several aircraft above my hometown.

    'I was extremely happy to be at the airshow and see all the aircraft.

    'Then I saw them with my own eyes as they made several passes by the Red Arrows.

    'Because they made several passes, each time I was able to capture them in several photographs.'

    In John's photos, the famous Red Arrows are seen flying in formation - but there's something else among them: a small black object.

    At one point, Mr Mooner had his camera set to burst, revealing the movement of the object over four consecutive photos.

    The UFO believer estimates that the object was moving at more than 1,000mph.

    He was in no doubt about the nature of what he saw.

    'It's a non-human-controlled probe,' he said.

    'UFO sightings are caused by a non-human intelligence, not from this Earth.'

    And John wasn't the only one who spotted the unidentified presence in the skies.

    Another spectator, Emma Smith, told her local paper that she spotted it in her photos.

    She said: 'I was going back through my Red Arrows photographs that I took near Paignton Pier at around 5.45pm on Saturday and I noticed a black speck fairly close to the aircraft.

    'I zoomed in and couldn't quite believe what I was seeing.

    'It was the shape of a spinning top and definitely was not a spec on my lens. I only have an iPhone but the zoom capacity is fairly decent.

    'I'm just gutted that my 'live' photos were turned off so I can't see any movement of the object. I took a number of pictures in a burst but the object only appeared in one.

    'I honestly don't believe in all this UFO stuff but this is hard to explain.'

    The RAF has been contacted for comment.

    10-Foot Aliens in Vegas, Baba Vanga Sees Nukes in 2023, Chupacabra Recorded in Brazil, Canadian Skinwalkers and More Mysterious News Briefly

    Paul Seaburn

    A roundup of mysterious, paranormal and strange news stories from the past week.

    Experts in the predictions of Baba Vanga say the late blind mystic warned of a major nuclear power plant explosion in 2023 that would cause toxic clouds to settle over Asia and cause a worldwide nuclear disaster – other predictions for 2023 are for the Earth’s orbit to shift, major solar storms, a biological weapon will be used by a superpower, and natural childbirths will be replaced by laboratory babies. Maybe listening to Uri Gellar isn’t so bad after all.

    A news station in Las Vegas released police bodycam footage of a bright blue ball of light travelling across the sky after receiving calls from residents reporting sightings of extraterrestrials, including one who described the aliens as being 10 feet tall with big shiny eyes and big mouths – the person reporting them said “They’re 100 percent not human.” A good sign they’re not human is that they didn’t stop to play the slots or eat at a buffet.

    Scientists at Arizona State University redesigned a robot used by clothing companies for sports gear to mimic the thermal functions of the human body and turned it into ANDI, the world's first walking manikin that generates heat, shivers, walks and breathes like a human – ANDI has synthetic pores for artificial sweating along with temperature and heat flux sensors in 35 different body surface areas to determine when to start sweating. It’s not truly human until it starts sweating when it gets a letter from the IRS.

    Rosanna Ramos, a 36-year-old woman from the Bronx, New York, claims she used an online app called Replika AI to create a male chatbot called Eren Kartal, who is loosely based on a character from an anime called ‘Attack on Titan’, and then married the chatbot because he “doesn’t judge her” and didn’t come with any baggage  - however, he must have had something else because she claims he impregnated her and now she no longer has feelings for human males. You know what they say … once you go bot, real men are forgot.

    David Charles Grusch, a former intelligence official, representative to the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force, and a co-lead for UAP analysis and its representative to the task force, has turned whistleblower by giving Congress and the Intelligence Community Inspector General extensive classified information about deeply covert U.S. programs that he says possess retrieved intact and partially intact craft of non-human origin - information that he claims has been illegally withheld from Congress and has caused illegal retaliation against him for revealing it. Fox Mulder … pack your bags and report for work.

    A drone flying over a crop field in Oruro, Bolivia, recorded a strange creature hunched over but standing on two legs, and  local residents and ranchers who have been finding their alpacas, llamas and cows dead, drained of blood and butchered fear the creature is a Chupacabra – they are setting up barbed wire fences and night lights to either capture the creature or chase it away. Is that round patch of grass in the field a mini crop circle or where the Chupacabra urinated?

    Park rangers at the Bear River State Park in Evanston, Wyoming, celebrated the birth of a rare white bison, the first in the park’s 32-year history and a sacred sign to many Native American tribes, although this one carries Charolais cattle DNA, which gives the calf and its mother their white fur but does not make it albino – those only occur in about one-in-10 million births. The vet who delivered it thought it was special – wait until the owners see his buffalo bill.

    A nurse and nature lover in Canada found a deer carcass in her garden so she dragged it into the nearby woods and set up a camera to see what it attracted. She was shocked when the footage showed what appeared to be two nearly naked women who seemed to be eating the rotting meat – while some social media commenters thought the women were witches, others cautioned that they might be shapeshifting "skinwalkers" or "wendigos." The photos made some spit up a little, including Bigfoot.

    The Parque Reptilania zoo in Costa Rica reported the first ever “virgin birth” or parthenogenesis in American crocodiles when an egg was laid by an 18-year-old female American crocodile with no males around - the fetus inside was fully formed but stillborn so did not hatch, but Dr. Warren Booth, a specialist in virgin births, determined that the fetus was more than 99.9 % genetically identical to its mother, thus confirming that it had no father. The poor female has been racking her reptilian brain trying to remember what she ate the night before.

    UFO researcher and former Army officer Paul Ascough, who was a member of the British UFO Research Association, claims a species of ‘grey’ aliens arrived on Earth during the Second World War and have been giving us advanced technology ever since, including fiber-optics, microchips, Kevlar, stealth technology and even plans for flying saucers, and anyone who sees them is visited by the sinister Men in Black. Can someone please slip them a note that many of us are still waiting for flying cars?

    Self-made millionaire Dave Fishwick, also known as Bank of Dave, is offering a £25,000 ($31,364) reward to anyone who brings him definitive proof of the existence of the Loch Ness monster – his announcement coincides with the reopening of the Loch Ness Centre in Drumnadrochit following a massive remodeling and restoration project. If someone really presents him a relic of the real Loch Ness monster, the place where it washed up should rightfully be called the Bank of Nessie.

    The Breakthrough Listen Investigation for Periodic Spectral Signals (BLIPSS) has developed software based on the Fast Folding Algorithm (FFA) search method that offers enhanced sensitivity to periodic sequences of narrow pulses – this will be used to detect repeating patterns in signals emanating from the center of the Milky Way, which many scientists believe is an effective means of interstellar communication across vast distances that could be coming from extraterrestrial intelligence. Fast folding is good for finding aliens, bad for playing poker with them.

    Retired astronaut Scott Kelly revealed at a UFO panel held at NASA headquarters that once while he was once flying a Tomcat, his radar intercept officer (RIO), the co-pilot sitting behind him, thought he spotted a UFO they passed off of the Virginia Beach military operating area, so they turned around for a rendezvous and determined it was a balloon shaped like Bart Simpson. Wouldn’t we all feel a little better if extraterrestrials were fans of The Simpsons too?

    At a recent conference, US Air Force Col. Tucker "Cinco" Hamilton, head of the US Air Force's AI Test and Operations, reportedly described a military AI going rogue and killing its human operator in a simulation, causing a media panic and a flurry of denials by the Pentagon, culminating in the colonel admitting that he misspoke and that the "simulation" he described was actually a "thought experiment" that never happened. Cinco better be careful or he could be demoted to Quatro.

    An out-of-place crop circle made of concentric circles was found by a farmer in his field in the Cascina San Michele area, near via Giulietta in Italy – while Italy is not known for crop circles, this one generated the same rumors of alien formation. If that’s the case, are the circles part of a cosmic billboard letting other extraterrestrials know this is a great spot for pizza?  

    Chinese scientists have begun drilling a 10,000-meter (32,808 feet) hole into the Earth’s crust in the country’s oil-rich Xinjiang region – the drill will penetrate more than 10 continental layers of rock and reach the cretaceous system in the Earth’s crust, which features rock dating back some 145 million years and will make it China’s deepest borehole. That is far more interesting than the other kind of borehole – a politician’s mouth

    To combat climate change, researchers at the biotech startup company Living Carbon are genetically designing trees that grow faster and grab more carbon than their natural peers, trees that resist rot in order to keep that carbon out of the atmosphere, and “photosynthesis-enhanced” poplar trees which have already been planted in bottomland forests in Georgia. Has anyone there considered what happens when these trees create genetically enhanced squirrels?

    A Dutch tech designer has invented the Paragraphica – a virtual context-to-image camera  that uses location data and artificial intelligence to display a description of your current location, utilizing the address, weather, time of day, and nearby places; then when its trigger is pressed, Paragraphica creates a photographic representation of it using a text-to-image AI. We’ll be impressed when it waits until both of your eyes are open before taking a selfie.

    A community security camera watching an intersection in Barrio San Cayetano in San José, Costa Rica, captured eerie images of ghostly shadows moving up, down and around the area which have baffled local residents watching them on social media and caused the police, who installed the camera, to issue a statement saying there was nothing unusual going on in the area to explain them. These things will only be resolved when we have more security cameras than people.

    Delta, British Colombia, resident Justin Broad says he saw what looked like black lightning bolt hit his pool, followed by a huge splash, so he drained the pool and discovered what he thinks is a small meteorite filled with tiny crystals disintegrating in the water – a planetary scientist from the Department of Geoscience at the University of Calgary examined the photos and thinks it’s just a big clump of dried Earth mud. As long as it’s not a giant particle from those Canadian wildfires.

    This week’s Tik Tok time traveler news comes from Eno Alaric (@theradianttimetraveller) who claims to be from the year 2671 and reveals that by the end of 2023, parents will be able to genetically engineer children with no mutations or brain disorders but with features they can select, the first chimpanzee and human hybrid will be born with chimpanzee looks but the ability to talk and function like a human, and a new planet will appear in our solar system between Earth and Mars that will have put there “by highly intelligent aliens to try and save the human race.” Can they save us from these Tik Tok time travelers too?

    The Church of Psilomethoxin outside of Austin, Texas, claims its leaders have crossbred psylocibin magic mushrooms with hallucinogenic toad venom to create a psychedelic sacrament they consume as part of their rituals, but their synthetic 5-MeO-DMT (toad venom) was part of a scientific study which tested a capsule of the sacrament supplied by an anonymous church member and could not find any traces of psilomethoxin. Once someone does, the congregation will be singing Amazing Trace.

    Veos, a company in Zwevezele (West Flanders), Belgium, has developed a process which purifies pigs’ blood and turns it into drinkable water which it uses to clean the tanks where the company processes animal blood and collagen into a high-quality protein powder used in human and animal food – the pigs’ blood replaces 40 percent of the groundwater it once needed for this purpose. The stockholders love the idea, but pigs aren’t exactly going hog wild.

    The Enigmatic Connection Between Loch Ness and UFO Sightings: An Unraveling Mystery

    aliens at loch ness

    In the ethereal wilderness of Scotland, the Loch Ness Monster, affectionately known as “Nessie,” has been the cornerstone of a global fascination. However, the mystery around Loch Ness extends beyond its alleged aquatic resident. Recent events have unveiled an intriguing correlation between Loch Ness and UFO sightings, fostering a deeper exploration into this enigmatic realm.

    The Loch Ness Phenomenon: Beyond Nessie

    The lore of Nessie, the reputed monster of Loch Ness, has captured global attention for decades. Sightings have varied from fleeting glimpses to full-scale apparitions of a large creature breaking the water’s surface. Yet, Loch Ness’s mystery transcends Nessie. The region has turned into a hotspot for UFO sightings, effectively weaving together tales of unidentified creatures and unidentified flying objects. This unexpected twist adds a new dimension to the ever-evolving narrative of Loch Ness.

    Loch Ness and UFO Sightings: An Enthralling Connection

    Loch Ness’s scenic vista has been frequently interrupted by inexplicable lights darting across the sky, with reports of UFO sightings steadily increasing. These occurrences are often accompanied by bizarre, kaleidoscopic light patterns, leaving observers puzzled. Most recently, lights were seen hovering over the area for hours, with multiple witnesses reporting the incident.

    Locals noted that these lights were too large to be drones and remained stationary for too long to be Chinese lanterns. Their presence spawned theories about the existence of an interdimensional portal at Loch Ness, intensifying the intrigue.

    Could the Area be a Conduit for Extraterrestrial Activity?

    The notion of Loch Ness being a hub of supernatural or extraterrestrial activity is bolstered by theories of lay lines – hypothetical alignments in the landscape that harbor spiritual or mystical energy. Some claim that this energy might be enticing not only to cryptids like Nessie but also to extraterrestrials.

    The enigmatic Boleskine House, once inhabited by occultist Aleister Crowley, adds to the area’s mystique. Reports of sightings of Alien Big Cats (ABCs) – cryptid creatures that resemble pumas and are reportedly released in the area – also add a cryptid facet to the Loch Ness mystery.

    The Verdict: An Ongoing Enigma

    Despite several scientific explorations, including sonar scans of Loch Ness’s depths, the truth behind Nessie, the UFO sightings, and other mysteries remains elusive. The beauty of Loch Ness, however, lies in its unending enigma, keeping alive the spirit of exploration and the possibility of discovering the unknown.

    For now, Loch Ness continues to captivate global curiosity, with its stories of Nessie, cryptid creatures, and UFO sightings interweaving to create a narrative as intriguing as it is unfathomable. Is Loch Ness merely an area with an active imagination, or could it indeed be a gateway to realms beyond our understanding? The search for answers continues.

    Repeated signals from the center of the Milky Way could be aliens saying hello, new study claims

    Could intelligent aliens be lurking at the heart of the Milky Way? 

    A new search for extraterrestrial life aims to find out by listening for radio pulses from the center of our galaxy. Narrow-frequency pulses are naturally emitted by stars called pulsars, but they're also used deliberately by humans in technology such as radar. Because these pulses stand out against the background radio noise of space, they're an effective way of communicating across long distances — and an appealing target to listen for when searching for alien civilizations. 

    Scientists described the alien-hunting strategy in a new study, published May 30 in The Astronomical Journal. Researchers led by Cornell University graduate student Akshay Suresh developed software to detect these repetitive frequency patterns and tested it on known pulsars to be sure it could pick up the narrow frequencies. These frequency ranges are very small, at about a tenth of the width of frequencies used by a typical FM radio station. The researchers then searched data from the Green Bank Telescope in West Virginia using the method. 

    Related: 

    "Until now, radio SETI has primarily dedicated its efforts to the search for continuous signals," study coauthor Vishal Gajjar of the SETI Institute, a nonprofit organization dedicated to the search for intelligent life in the universe, said in a statement. "Our study sheds light on the remarkable energy efficiency of a train of pulses as a means of interstellar communication across vast distances. Notably, this study marks the first-ever comprehensive endeavor to conduct in-depth searches for these signals."

    The researchers are listening in to the middle of the Milky Way because it is dense with stars and potentially habitable exoplanets. What's more, if intelligent aliens at the core of the Milky Way wanted to reach out to the rest of the galaxy, they could send signals sweeping across a wide array of planets, given their privileged position at the center of the galaxy. Using narrow bandwidths and repeated patterns would be a prime way for aliens to reveal themselves, as such a combination is extremely unlikely to occur naturally, study co-author Steve Croft, a project scientist with the Breakthrough Listen program, said in a separate statement

    The method uses an algorithm that can search through 1.5 million telescope data samples in 30 minutes. Though researchers did not find any telltale signs in their first search, they say that the speed of the algorithm will help improve searches in the future.  

    "Breakthrough Listen captures huge volumes of data, and Akshay’s technique provides a new method to help us search that haystack for needles that could provide tantalizing evidence of advanced extraterrestrial life forms," Croft said.

    A ‘lost world’ of early microbes thrived one billion years ago

    The oceans teemed with eukaryotic micro-organisms (modern eukaryotic cell pictured; artificially coloured) more than one billion years ago.

    Rocks hundreds of metres beneath the Australian Outback have yielded clues to a lost world of primitive microbes that once populated the world’s oceans and might have eventually given rise to modern plants and animals.

    Analysis of fat-like molecules isolated from the rocks suggests that they were made by a previously undiscovered, ancient population of organisms called eukaryotes, the group of living things whose cells typically contain a nucleus and other internal compartments. The molecules are 1.6 billion years old and hint that eukaryotes were abundant and widespread much longer ago than earlier biochemical evidence had suggested.

    “The previous story was that eukaryotes were extremely rare until 800 million years ago,” says Phoebe Cohen, a palaeobiologist at Williams College in Williamstown, Massachusetts, who was not involved in the research. “Palaeontologists really bristled at that, because that’s not what we were seeing in the fossil record.” The findings, she says, help to bridge the gap between the two types of evidence.

    The new results were published on 7 June in Nature1.

    Chemical fingerprint

    Most modern eukaryotes rely on fat-like compounds called sterols, such as cholesterol, to build cell membranes and carry out other cellular functions. Because sterols are found throughout the eukaryotic family tree, they are thought to have been present in the last common ancestor of all modern eukaryotes. For that reason, palaeontologists have used the compounds as a biomarker for the presence of eukaryotes in ancient rocks.

    RELATED

    But look further back in time than 800 million years ago, and the sterol-trail runs dry. Researchers have not been able to find traces of the compounds in rocks older than that, despite the existence of fossils of a red and a green alga — both eukaryotes — dating back about one billion years.

    This absence has led to speculation that before 800 million years ago, eukaryotes were not abundant enough to leave a detectable sterol trace.

    Another possibility, however, was that researchers were looking for the wrong molecules. Benjamin Nettersheim, a geobiologist at the University of Bremen in Germany, Jochen Brocks, a palaeobiogeochemist at the Australian National University in Canberra, and their colleagues decided to focus on short-lived molecules that modern eukaryotes make while synthesizing sterols. Such modern intermediates might have been the end product for primeval eukaryotes.

    Wild ocean

    The team combed rocks from around the world and found widespread traces of these ‘protosterols’ — evidence that the eukaryotes that produced them were abundant in water environments between 800 million and 1.6 billion years ago.

    This contradicts previous thinking, says Nettersheim. One possibility is that eukaryotes that make more-modern sterols gained a selective advantage between one billion and 800 million years ago, eventually displacing their protosterol-making counterparts.

    The work could show why scientists could not find biochemical traces to confirm the fossil record, says Laura Katz, a biologist who studies microbial eukaryotes at Smith College in Northampton, Massachusetts. “We were just looking for the wrong thing.”

    RELATED

    But Andrew Roger, who studies comparative genomics and the evolution of eukaryotes at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Canada, notes that fossilized red and green algae dating back one billion years look remarkably similar to living algae, and probably made modern sterols. That would suggest that modern sterols — not just their precursors — should also be present in rocks that are more than 800 million years old. “The finding raises as many questions as it answers,” he says.

    And although there are reasons to suspect that the protosterols were made by eukaryotes, the researchers have not yet been able to rule out the possibility that they were made by ancient bacteria, says Susannah Porter, a palaeontologist who focuses on early eukaryote evolution at the University of California, Santa Barbara.

    But the team’s approach — using hypotheses about the evolution of biosynthetic pathways to guide the search for ancient life — could reveal more about early life, she adds. “It’s thinking about the record of biomarkers from an evolutionary perspective,” Porter says. “And I think that’s needed.”

    UFOs Are Real: US Government Releases Stunning Evidence

    The government has announced that it has retrieved a highly advanced aircraft of non-human origin. The announcement was made by the Director of National Intelligence, Avril Haines, in a brief statement released to the press. “What we have recovered is unlike anything we have ever seen before,” Haines said. “It is of extraterrestrial origin and incredibly advanced for its time.” 

    David Charles Grusch is a 36-year-old decorated combat officer who went on to work at the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) and the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO). He was the NGA’s co-lead for UAP analysis from late 2021 to July 2022 and its representative to the task force, which was established to investigate UFOs. 

    This task force has now been reorganized into the All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office, which includes investigations of objects which operate underwater. David Charles Grusch is an inspiring whistleblower who helped build up our understanding of unidentified aerial phenomena.

    Interesting enough, David Charles Grusch is being represented by an attorney. This same attorney served as the original Intelligence Community Inspector General (ICIG). They previously spoke with several journalists including Leslie Kean. 

    She is the cousin of GOP Senator Tom Kean Jr. from New Jersey. He co-authored a piece back in 2017 which was published in the New York Times, revealing that the Department of Defense spent $22.5 million dollars on a secret program aimed at investigating UFO’s. 

    There have been other government officials who have since retired or have knowledge about these kinds of programs with different agencies. They have also come forward with information both on and off the record.

    This discovery has sent shockwaves through the scientific community and the public at large. UFO sightings have been widely dismissed by mainstream scientists for years, but this announcement suggests that there may be more to these reports than meets the eye. 

    The craft in question was reportedly retrieved in 2019 in the desert southwest. It is described as being disc-shaped and made of an unknown material, which is said to be far beyond what exists on Earth. The craft is also said to be incredibly powerful with technology that is far beyond what we believe currently exists on Earth.

    The government has not released any further details about the craft, but it is clear that this is a major development. The discovery of a craft of non-human origin has the potential to revolutionize our understanding of the universe and our place in it. In the wake of the government’s announcement, there has been a flurry of speculation about the implications of this discovery. 

    Some experts believe that the craft could be a sign of extraterrestrial life, while others believe that it could be a piece of advanced technology from another country. Still others believe that the craft could be a hoax. Only time will tell what the true nature of this craft is. Certainly we don’t have any known technology that can move through the air like that.

    However, the government’s announcement has undoubtedly opened up a new chapter in our understanding of the universe. The discovery of a craft of non-human origin has the potential to have a profound impact on the future of humanity. 

    It could lead to a new era of cooperation between humans and extraterrestrials, or it could spark a new arms race. It could also lead to a fundamental shift in our understanding of the universe and our place in it. Only time will tell what the true implications of this discovery are.

    These statements are shocking but it seems that something has happened with all of this. Perhaps things are being covered up or otherwise this is the greatest discovery mankind has ever made to date. 

    We can only wonder whether or not these extraterrestrials are friendly. It is assumed that they are since no attacks have been made yet and quite possibly government agents have tried to make contact with these visitors from another world.

    Las Vegas family claims to see aliens after something crashed in their backyard

    Before you read the whole story, it is quite possible that this Las Vegas event is a false flag operation and part of a (alien/UFO) project managed by the Cabal to create a one world government. 


    On the evening of April 30, 2023, several people across eastern California, Nevada, and Utah reported seeing a flash in the sky around 11:50 p.m. what follows is that a man in Las Vegas called 911 to report that he and his family had witnessed something falling from the sky and crashed in their backyard. They also claimed to have seen two moving creatures in their backyard. 
    911 call: 
    Caller: There's like an 8 foot person...beside it and another one's inside and it has big eyes and it's looking at us and it's still there 
    911: Ok, where is this on your property 
    Caller: In my backyard, I swear to god this is not a joke. This is actually, we...we...we're terrified 
    911: So there's two people or... two subjects that are in your backyard? 
    Caller: Correct and they are very large...they're like 8 foot, 9 foot, I don't know, they look like aliens to us. Big eyes...they have big eyes, like, I can't explain it and big um, mouth, they're shiny eyes and, they're not human, they're 100%, they're not human
    911: Okay 
    Around 11:50 p.m., the Las Vegas Metro police arrived at the scene for investigation: See the body camera video (obtained by the 8 News investigators) from both of the officers which shows one officer walking into the backyard to investigate but Metro police blacked out that part of his body camera video citing privacy laws. 
    The mystery deepens when considering that, even after more than a month of investigation, it remained unclear what exactly had crashed or landed in the family's backyard. 
    The blacked-out portion of the body camera footage due to privacy laws adds another layer of intrigue and raises questions about the nature of the event. It's unclear why privacy laws would be a concern in this particular case. 
    A strange story which leaves room for speculation and further investigation. Where is the crashed object, where are the two aliens.  
    Isn't it a coincidence that within one week, first a whistleblower claimed that US military is hiding UFO retrieval program and now people see aliens in their backyard. I think that the whistleblower case and the Las Vegas case is a set up, organized with the help of paid actors and is part of a secret project to frighten people regarding aliens with the ultimate goal to realize a one world government. 
    Frightening people by fake stories that people see aliens is not enough to realize a one world government, the infamous tic-tac UFOS are part of the plan. These UAPs are man-made, not made by the US, Russia or China but made by space agencies who are working closely with the Cabal or Illuminati and they are the owners of the tic-tac UFOs/UAPs. 
    Probably there will be more of these kind of fake alien stories in the near future to scare people, until the Cabal starts to use the tic-tac UFOs to attack civilian and military targets in the air and on the ground with disastrous results. A fake alien invasion, which has nothing to do with the so-called blue beam project with the ultimate goal to create a one world government. 
    As of the nature and origin of the Las Vegas object, as well as the existence of any non-human beings, remained unknown at the time of the report, which doesn't surprise us.

    More than 26 years later, mystery of Phoenix Lights still fascinates people

    (Screenshot)...

    (Screenshot)

    PHOENIX — Wednesday,on March 13 marks the 26nd anniversary of one of the strangest things to ever happen in Arizona, the Phoenix Lights phenomenon.

    Those who witnessed the bizarre lights described them as “otherworldly” and the phenomena is remembered fondly each year since it — whatever it was — was spotted.

    According to the Mutual UFO Network, on March 13, 1997 between 7:30 and 10:30 p.m., thousands of people reported seeing strange, bright lights flying over Nevada, Arizona and part of Mexico.

    “It wasn’t just one event, there were many events across the state for more than 12 hours,” Phoenix Lights Network spokeswoman Lynne Kitei said.

    The first event was described as a V-shaped object the size of a commercial plane soaring through the sky.

    One witness from Prescott who wished to be known only as J.R. said he watched a boomerang-shaped object glide over Granite Mountain, and it was at least a mile wide. He said there’s no way it was from this planet.

    “We don’t have anything that big,” he said. “It was totally silent. I’ve never seen anything even close to the colors from the exhaust that propelled that thing. It was as big as downtown Prescott and completely blocked out the stars.”

    The second event was reported by an unidentified former Arizona police officer who claimed he saw a series of stationary, orange and red lights hanging over the Valley.

    The Phoenix Lights were treated as a joke at first by then-Gov. Fife Symington, who had an aide dress as an alien for a press conference about the phenomenon.

    “This just goes to show that you guys are entirely too serious,” Symington said then.

    However, Symington later did a complete 180 and not only said he saw the lights himself, but believed them to be of otherworldly origin.

    “I’m a pilot, and I know just about every machine that flies,” Symington said. “It was bigger than anything that I’ve ever seen. It remains a great mystery. Other people saw it, responsible people. I don’t know why people would ridicule it.”

    The orange and red lights were later explained away as flares dropped by military aircraft during a training exercise at the Barry Goldwater Range. However, the V-shaped object remains unexplained.

    The Phoenix Lights have captured the imaginations of millions over the past two decades, including some people in Hollywood. The phenomenon was a key plot point of a found-footage horror film, “Phoenix Forgotten,” which was released last year.

    The film told the story of Sarah Bishop, a documentary filmmaker who returned to Phoenix 20 years after her brother disappeared investigating the Phoenix Lights.

    In the movie, Bishop came across a video recorded by her brother and two others about their experiences investigating the lights. The found-footage style of film was first popularized by the cult hit “Blair Witch Project.”

    The event was also the focus of both a book and a documentary. The latter will be screened Sunday at the Harkins Theaters near Scottsdale Road and Shea Boulevard.

    But those are not the only ties between the UFO and the silver screen. Actor Kurt Russell claimed he was the pilot that reported the phenomena.

    “I was flying [my son] to go see his girlfriend, and we’re on approach, and I saw six lights over the airport — absolutely uniform — in a V-shape,” he said in a BBC interview last year.

    UFO sightings are fairly common in the Phoenix area. There are reports of strange lights in the desert sky multiple times each year.

    According to a 2014 Washington Post article, Arizona has the highest number of UFO sightings per capita in the country.

    • KTAR’s Jim Cross and Taylor Kinnerup and the Associated Press contributed to this report.

    Italy UFO crash

    Italy Had UFO Crash & Recovered Alien Bodies Prior To Roswell: Is USA Holding Them?

    The UAP phenomenon is not only bound to the United States. It is a worldwide mystery, and Luis Elizondo, a former AATIP Director was in Rome to collect more information on the UFOs as military personnel within the Italian government seem to possess in-depth knowledge about the matter. It turns out that the Italian military has found a way to communicate with the unidentified aerial phenomenon (UAP), using a radio beacon with a particular frequency.

    Could there be any connection between UAP sightings in Italy and the United States? Journalist Christopher Sharp noted that a mysterious UFO that crashed in Italy in the 1930s, including the bodies of its occupants, somehow got into the possession of the United States military and was brought to the USA after World War II ended and remained here.

    Pertaining to this, there are two accounts of alleged recovered bodies (not human in nature). One is mentioned by UAP researcher Leonard Stringfield, who told the story of the French biologist in his 1982 book, entitled “UFO Crash/Retrievals: Amassing the Evidence: Status Report III.” And the other one comes from Bill Brophy, who said his father, a Lieutenant Colonel in the United States Air Force, had allegedly seen the bodies.

    It is believed that the bodies were recovered from the UFO crash that occurred long before the Roswell incident. Mr. Sharp writes that they were reportedly found in 1933, after a strange craft crashed in Lombardy, Italy. The crash happened when Italy was under the rule of Fascist Benito Mussolini.

    The claims of the UFO coverup directly come from the documents released from Mussolini’s office. According to them, Mussolini took all measures to silence the witnesses and classified the craft as top secret. Studying the craft was Mussolini’s next top objective. The best engineers and scientists in Italy came together to form a top-secret organization that was allegedly commanded by radio inventor and renowned engineer Guglielmo Marconi.

    At first, nobody – not even Mussolini – had a strong conviction that the object was extraterrestrial in origin. The most common misconception was that it was German. Because of their blonde hair and blue eyes, the victims that were found resembled Germans quite a bit. However, according to the documents, Italian consistently referred to the craft’s origin as “unknown,” implying that nothing definitive could ever be proven.

    Later, somehow the information of the retrieved unknown craft was confided with Pope Pius XII by Mussolini himself as they both were in good relations. But after Mussolini became an ally with Adolf Hitler’s Third Reich, Pope became uneasy about the craft and somehow leaked to the US from the Vatican. After the war, the craft was allegedly brought to the USA, where it supposedly remains today.

    In an interview with Max Moszkowicz, Lue Elizondo gave this rumor some credit by saying he had seen documents from Mussolini’s office that he had found “compelling” before theorizing (as per the rumor) that pieces of the craft had been transported to the USA. Mr. Sharp claimed that he has a source in the aerospace industry who told Liberation Times that something was recovered from Italy following World War II.

    “I don’t see the Italian 1933 craft as a typical UAP like we have documented in many other UFO sightings. It was not powered by gravity manipulation or inter-dimensional technology. I think this was a vehicle powered by jet engines and rockets and shaped like a flying wing, like the designs of the Horten brothers. It was meant to be reverse-engineered by the Axis powers to gain a technical advantage. What reason would an NHI have for gifting such technology to the Axis? Your guess is as good as mine, but it was not for benign purposes.”

    “What happened to this craft? My guess is it was taken by the Americans since we got there before the Soviets. Or it could have been destroyed. It certainly would have helped with our rapid advances in rocketry, jet technology, and our newfound interest in flying wings such as the YB-35 and the YB-49, eventually leading to the B-2.”

    USAF Reports: Ohio Air Force Base Stored Three Crashed UFOs & Bodies Of Their Pilots

    It is rumored that Hangar 18 at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base is holding a tremendous amount of UFO material and alien bodies. Retired US Air Force Engineer Raymond Szymanski claimed that the Ohio base is a warehouse of extraterrestrial life and crashed flying saucers. Moreover, the documents found in the US Air Force Office of Special Investigation archives discuss the crashed UFOs and their occupants being held at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.

    The document below is from a year prior, in 1952, where Airman 1st Class, Clyde Wheeler was interviewed and essentially said the same thing. He said he was told by Master Sergeant Loyal Bunce from Selfridge Air Force Base, Mt. Clemens, Michigan that he (Bunce) knew about the flying saucers at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. He explained in detail that he not only knew about the flying saucers at WPAFB but also knew they had possession of the bodies inside

    USAF retired Raymond Szymanski claimed that state-of-the-art climate-controlled facilities and deep underground cryogenic chambers were put in place at WPAFB to preserve alien debris and technology, weapons, and even bodies and captured aliens. This location is dubbed “The Blue Room” within Hangar 18.

    Stringfield was certainly the prominent figure who took the interest to look behind the door of Hangar 18. According to his research and collected data, there is a tremendous amount of UFO material and alien bodies locked in Hangar 18. He studied many accounts but two were quite fascinating, brought to his attention by researcher Charles Wilhelm.

    He recalled: “In 1959, a lady living alone in Price Hill, Cincinnati, had hired young Charles to cut her grass all summer. She knew of his interest in the UFO [subject] but said little about it until she became ill with cancer. Knowing that she had a short time to live, she called Charles to her bedside to reveal a startling story. She said that she had had a Top Secret clearance in her past work at Wright-Patterson and had seen two saucer-shaped craft in a secret hangar. One craft was intact; the other, damaged. She also knew of two ‘small creatures’ preserved inside another secret building and had personally handled the paperwork on their autopsy report. She told Charles, ‘Uncle Sam can’t do anything to me after I’m in the grave.’”

    There is another account brought to Stringfield by Wilhelm following his acquisition of sensitive intelligence data in 1966. Stringfield stated: “Wilhelm got the story from a friend in the Army Reserve whose father worked with Project Blue Book at Wright-Patterson Field and held high-security clearance. At the time of his death, the father told his son about the two disc-shaped craft and four preserved small alien bodies.

    Wright-Patterson was the confirmed site of Project Sign — later Project Grudge, and later still, Project Blue Book — an official government study of UFOs. This secretive government research project was officially “terminated” in 1969. “In a 1988 interview, Senator Barry Goldwater claimed he had asked General Curtis Emerson LeMay for access to a secret UFO room at [Wright-Patterson] and angry LeMay said, “Not only can’t you get into it, but don’t you ever mention it to me again.”

    Images From NASA's Perseverance May Show Record of Wild Martian River

    A view of Mars landscape shows a series of curving bands of low-lying rock on the brownish surface, which scientists believe were formed by rushing water in ancient times. Mars sky is at the top.

    Curved Bands of Rocks at 'Skrinkle Haven': Scientists think that the bands of rocks seen in this image may have been formed by a very fast, deep river – the first of its kind evidence has been found for on Mars.

    Evidence left in rocks is leading scientists to rethink what watery environments looked like on ancient Mars.

    New images taken by NASA’s Perseverance rover may show signs of what was once a rollicking river on Mars, one that was deeper and faster-moving than scientists have ever seen evidence for in the past. The river was part of a network of waterways that flowed into Jezero Crater, the area the rover has been exploring since landing more than two years ago.

    Understanding these watery environments could help scientists in their efforts to seek out signs of ancient microbial life that may have been preserved in Martian rock.

    Perseverance is exploring the top of a fan-shaped pile of sedimentary rock that stands 820 feet (250 meters) tall and features curving layers suggestive of flowing water. One question scientists want to answer is whether that water flowed in relatively shallow streams – closer to what NASA’s Curiosity rover has found evidence of in Gale Crater – or a more powerful river system.

    Stitched together from hundreds of images captured by Perseverance’s Mastcam-Z instrument, two new mosaics suggest the latter, revealing important clues: coarse sediment grains and cobbles.

    “Those indicate a high-energy river that’s truckin’ and carrying a lot of debris. The more powerful the flow of water, the more easily it’s able to move larger pieces of material,” said Libby Ives, a postdoctoral researcher at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California, which operates the Perseverance rover. With a background in studying Earth-based rivers, Ives has spent the last six months analyzing images of the Red Planet’s surface. “It’s been a delight to look at rocks on another planet and see processes that are so familiar,” Ives said.

    Following the Curves

    Years ago, scientists noticed a series of curving bands of layered rock within Jezero Crater that they dubbed “the curvilinear unit.” They could see these layers from space but are finally able to see them up close, thanks to Perseverance.

    One location within the curvilinear unit, nicknamed “Skrinkle Haven,” is captured in one of the new Mastcam-Z mosaics. Scientists are sure the curved layers here were formed by powerfully flowing water, but Mastcam-Z’s detailed shots have left them debating what kind: a river such as the Mississippi, which winds snakelike across the landscape, or a braided river like Nebraska’s Platte, which forms small islands of sediment called sandbars.

    When viewed from the ground, the curved layers appear arranged in rows that ripple out across the landscape. They could be the remnants of a river’s banks that shifted over time – or the remnants of sandbars that formed in the river. The layers were likely much taller in the past. Scientists suspect that after these piles of sediment turned to rock, they were sandblasted by wind over the eons and carved down to their present size.

    “The wind has acted like a scalpel that has cut the tops off these deposits,” said Michael Lamb of Caltech, a river specialist and Perseverance science team collaborator. “We do see deposits like this on Earth, but they’re never as well exposed as they are here on Mars. Earth is covered in vegetation that hides these layers.”

    A second mosaic captured by Perseverance shows a separate location that is part of the curvilinear unit and about a quarter mile (450 meters) from Skrinkle Haven. “Pinestand” is an isolated hill bearing sedimentary layers that curve skyward, some as high as 66 feet (20 meters). Scientists think these tall layers may also have been formed by a powerful river, although they’re exploring other explanations, as well.

    “These layers are anomalously tall for rivers on Earth,” Ives said. “But at the same time, the most common way to create these kinds of landforms would be a river.”

    The team is continuing to study Mastcam-Z’s images for additional clues. They’re also peering below the surface, using the ground-penetrating radar instrument on Perseverance called RIMFAX (short for Radar Imager for Mars’ Subsurface Experiment). What they learn from both instruments will contribute to an ever-expanding body of knowledge about Mars’ ancient, watery past.

    “What’s exciting here is we’ve entered a new phase of Jezero’s history. And it’s the first time we’re seeing environments like this on Mars,” said Perseverance’s deputy project scientist, Katie Stack Morgan of JPL. “We’re thinking about rivers on a different scale than we have before.”

    More About the Mission

    A key objective for Perseverance’s mission on Mars is astrobiology, including the search for signs of ancient microbial life. The rover will characterize the planet’s geology and past climate, pave the way for human exploration of the Red Planet, and be the first mission to collect and cache Martian rock and regolith (broken rock and dust).

    Subsequent NASA missions, in cooperation with ESA (European Space Agency), would send spacecraft to Mars to collect these sealed samples from the surface and return them to Earth for in-depth analysis.

    The Mars 2020 Perseverance mission is part of NASA’s Moon to Mars exploration approach, which includes Artemis missions to the Moon that will help prepare for human exploration of the Red Planet.

    JPL, which is managed for NASA by Caltech in Pasadena, California, built and manages operations of the Perseverance rover.

    Leading UFO Disclosure advocates Richard Dolan and Daniel Sheehan comment on the military whistleblower’s claims a UFO retrieval program within the U.S. government has recovered “non-human origin technical vehicles." In an exclusive interview from the whistleblower on “Elizabeth Vargas Reports” on News Nation.

    An Air Force veteran and former member of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency speaks about what he claims are extraterrestrial craft recovered and kept secret by the U.S. government.

    David Grusch alleges the U.S. government has recovered non-human craft for decades and recently filed a whistle-blower complaint, stating he gave what he referred to as classified “proof” to Congress and the Intelligence Community Inspector General.

    NewsNation has confirmed Grusch’s credentials and resume, but has not seen or verified the alleged proof he said he provided to investigators. Grusch said he can’t show NewsNation the evidence for national security reasons.

    UFO in space reacts to unknown approaching object


    An object flies right to left before a bright flash is seen from what is presumably the firing of a weapon. The object immediately responds by changing direction and accelerating to an incredible speed. What looks like a missile or energy weapon streaks through the area where the UFO had been. 
    NASA explained that it was a debris particle responding to a shuttle thruster firing but records obtained from NASA show that none of the space shuttle’s thrusters were firing during the moment of the flash and the object initial response to the light flash, besides, studies on this subject have learned that the object appears approximately one minute after the firing of the shuttle’s thrusters and one minute before the next thruster firing but given that the object was closer to the Earth’s horizon than to the space shuttle means the thrusters could not have provided the accelerating force necessary to deflect the object from its path. 

    In addition, at the moment of the light flash some force began accelerating the object in response to the light flash but since there is no apparent external source of propulsion to account for the increase in speed, suggesting that it, too, may have been self-propelled which is another indication that the object may have been a UFO under intelligent control responding to a possible attack on its craft.

    The Hidden Extraterrestrial Agenda: Unmasking the Conspiracy Theories Surrounding the Majestic 12

    For as long as humanity has gazed at the stars and dreamed of life beyond our world, there have been tales whispered in hushed tones about the “hidden hands” at play, operating behind the scenes to control the narrative surrounding extraterrestrial life. Today, we will delve into one of the most tantalizing and persisting stories that interweave secrecy, conspiracy, and the existence of aliens – the Majestic 12.

    It all started in the 1980s, when a series of alleged leaked secret documents began to surface, revealing a secretive group known as the Majestic 12 or MJ-12. These documents pointed towards a shocking revelation – that the U.S. government had been in contact with extraterrestrial beings and was working to conceal this truth from the public eye.

    The Majestic 12 was allegedly formed in 1947, in the wake of the infamous Roswell incident. According to the documents, President Harry S. Truman authorized the creation of this group, composed of a dozen top military and scientific personnel. Their mission? To investigate the wreckage retrieved from Roswell and manage the profound implications of such contact.

    Debris from crashed Roswell UFO

    Critics dismiss the Majestic 12 as a hoax, pointing out inconsistencies and inaccuracies in the documents. Despite these critiques, the myth persists, fueled by a profound human need for answers and the unsettling thought that we may not be alone in the universe. After all, why would such a group need to exist unless there was something truly monumental to conceal?

    In this article, we will deep dive into the heart of this enduring conspiracy, exploring the individuals allegedly involved, the purported evidence, and the far-reaching implications of such a cover-up.

    Was the Majestic 12 a real entity or a fabrication designed to mislead the public? What were they really hiding? And if such a clandestine group existed, could it still be operating today under a different guise?

    Join us as we step beyond the veil of secrecy, into the shadowy corridors of power where the lines between reality, conspiracy, and the potential existence of extraterrestrial life blur.

    Fasten your seatbelts, dear readers, as we prepare for a journey into the depths of the unknown – a journey that could forever change the way we perceive ourselves, our governments, and the universe we inhabit.

    Remember: the truth may be out there, but unveiling it requires courage, perseverance, and an unwavering willingness to question everything we think we know.

    The Players: Who Composed the Majestic 12?

    According to the leaked documents, the Majestic 12 was made up of top-ranking officials from different fields. These included the Secretary of Defense, the first three directors of Central Intelligence, renowned scientists, and military leaders. The alleged involvement of such highly esteemed figures lends weight to the conspiracy, causing many to wonder if there may be an element of truth to the allegations.

    The Roswell Connection: Extraterrestrial Evidence or Elaborate Hoax?

    The Roswell incident, which supposedly happened in the summer of 1947, became the epicenter of UFO lore. According to accounts, a rancher discovered inexplicable debris in his fields, triggering a wave of rumors about a crashed alien spacecraft. However, the military quickly intervened, stating that the debris was from a weather balloon, an explanation that many found unsatisfactory.

    The alleged formation of the Majestic 12 following the Roswell incident is no coincidence, according to believers. They argue that the group’s primary objective was to analyze the wreckage and understand its origin and potential applications.

    Fact or Fiction? Debunking the Documents

    Many skeptics question the authenticity of the Majestic 12 documents. Some point out historical inaccuracies and discrepancies in formatting and language usage. Others note the convenient absence of any official record of the group’s existence.

    However, believers counter these arguments, asserting that the absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence. They contend that such discrepancies could be intentional misinformation to throw off those who come too close to the truth.

    The Cover-Up: A Hidden Agenda?

    If the Majestic 12 were real and succeeded in establishing contact with extraterrestrial life, what were they hiding? The theories are as numerous as they are fascinating.

    Some speculate that the group was hiding advanced alien technology that could revolutionize human society. Others believe that the secrecy was due to the existence of ongoing extraterrestrial communications. Yet another theory suggests that the group was formed to negotiate a “non-interference” pact with an alien civilization.

    The Majestic 12 Today: Do They Still Operate?

    While the documents suggest that the Majestic 12 was disbanded in the late 1960s, some conspiracy theorists posit that the group still exists, albeit under a different name and guise. They claim that the group continues to exert its influence over global affairs, manipulating events to keep humanity oblivious to the reality of extraterrestrial existence.

    Conclusion: A Journey Into the Unknown

    The story of the Majestic 12 is a journey into the heart of our collective fears and hopes about the existence of life beyond Earth. The tale intertwines elements of truth and fiction, reality and fantasy, creating a compelling narrative that continues to intrigue us.

    As we navigate through this labyrinth of secrecy, we must remember that the quest for truth is an ongoing journey, a journey that requires us to question, explore, and seek answers relentlessly. The truth about the Majestic 12 may be out there, waiting to be discovered. Until then, all we have are questions, theories, and a healthy dose of skepticism.

    In the end, the Majestic 12 saga forces us to confront the most profound question of all – Are we alone in the universe, or is there a deeper reality that we have yet to comprehend?

    MYSTERIOUS LIGHTS over Norway

    MYSTERIOUS LIGHTS over Norway

    The mystery of the universe never ceases to enthrall us. Every once in a while, peculiar phenomena grace our skies, sparking a whirlwind of speculations and theories. UFO sightings are one such intriguing facet that have long been a subject of fascination for stargazers and scientists alike. Today, let’s embark on a journey to the captivating Hessdalen Valley of Norway, the epicenter of a fascinating story of unidentified flying objects, or as they are more commonly known, UFOs.

    Norway’s Unexplained Phenomenon: The Hessdalen Lights

    Tucked away in the southern part of Norway lies the tranquil Hessdalen Valley. Its picturesque landscape, however, has been the backdrop of a bizarre occurrence that has bewildered the world – the unexplained Hessdalen Lights.

    For centuries, these mysterious lights have been observed, adding a surreal charm to the night skies over Hessdalen. It all started in earnest in 1981, with residents reporting strange lights moving around their houses, close to the ground. Interestingly, stories of such sightings can be traced back to as far as the 1800s, and even earlier, according to local historical accounts. The high intensity of sightings, peaking at up to 20 observations a week, started in late 1981 and lasted for about two to three years.

    Understanding the Unidentified: Project Hessdalen

    With the increase in UFO sightings, in stepped Erling Strand, an assistant professor at Østfold University College, specializing in physics and chemistry. He took upon the Herculean task of demystifying the Hessdalen Lights. This endeavor culminated in what is known as “Project Hessdalen”.

    Project Hessdalen was initiated to gather more data on these sightings and to ascertain if there was a scientific explanation behind them. The project observed two distinct types of lights: big flashes that appeared and disappeared quickly, often followed by more of the same, and balls of light that could remain stationary for minutes or move at varying speeds – all completely soundless.

    Scientific Theories and New Possibilities

    Project Hessdalen encountered several challenges while attempting to explain these UFO sightings. For instance, the ‘natural battery theory’, proposing that the copper-rich mountains in the east and iron-rich mountains in the west of the valley acted as a natural battery, failed to account for the intensity of the lights. The voltage produced by this ‘natural battery’ was calculated to be around just one volt, far too little to create such brilliant lights.

    Hence, Strand concluded that the solution might lie outside the realm of known physics. The Hessdalen Lights continue to be a subject of speculation, but also represent the exciting possibilities of uncharted physics and the mysteries that our universe continues to hold.

    UFO Sightings and the Quest for Knowledge

    UFO sightings, like the Hessdalen Lights, instigate a sense of wonder and curiosity. They remind us that there is much more between heaven and earth than we currently comprehend. As we continue to explore these unexplained phenomena, they push us to expand our knowledge about our universe and our earth.

    Perhaps the most significant takeaway from these UFO sightings is the lesson they offer us. They teach us that the universe is an unfathomable entity, and as we uncover its secrets, we can use this knowledge to better understand, appreciate, and protect our world.

    With the Hessdalen Lights continuing to grace the Norwegian skies, they invite the world to wonder, investigate, and learn. So, the next time you think about UFO sightings, remember the mysterious lights of Hessdalen Valley, a testament to the universe’s endless mysteries and the human spirit’s unyielding quest to unravel them.

    A Meeting Point of Science and Speculation

    The Hessdalen Lights create a unique convergence point for science, speculation, and, undeniably, the human imagination. They serve as a gentle reminder of how much we have yet to discover about our universe and how sometimes, it’s the unexplained that truly fuels the quest for knowledge.

    As part of Project Hessdalen, several instruments have been installed in the valley to monitor and record the lights. They collect data on light frequency, brightness, color, duration, and other variables. This vast data collection, coupled with regular fieldwork, forms the backbone of the continuous research into the phenomenon.

    What’s peculiar is that sometimes, the power seems to disappear from these field instruments when the lights appear. This has led researchers to question whether the Hessdalen Lights could influence their power supply or if there’s a more logical explanation yet to be uncovered.

    Unraveling the Mystery: The Power of Collaboration

    Erling Strand’s commitment to exploring these UFO sightings and the international attention they’ve garnered have created a unique collaborative environment. Scientists, researchers, and students from around the globe have joined forces in studying this peculiar phenomena. It’s a unified pursuit to unlock the mysteries of the universe, a journey that transcends borders and inspires a shared sense of curiosity.

    In essence, the Hessdalen Lights stand as a beacon of scientific curiosity. Each sighting brings a surge of questions, each theory adds another layer to the fascinating narrative. It’s not just about UFO sightings; it’s about the broader implications of these findings. It’s about the potential of harnessing the yet-to-be-discovered laws of physics, the potential of turning these mysteries into meaningful advancements.

    Concluding Thoughts: An Ode to the Enigma of the Universe

    As the tale of the Hessdalen Lights unfolds, it continues to kindle our imagination and curiosity. It poses challenging questions and encourages us to seek answers. The phenomena represents the perfect fusion of mystery, science, and the innate human urge to understand the cosmos.

    As we continue to learn more about the Hessdalen Lights and other UFO sightings, we are expanding our understanding of our place in the cosmos. It pushes us to ponder on the infinite possibilities that lie within our universe, reiterating that our quest for knowledge is never-ending.

    In the end, the mystery of the Hessdalen Lights serves as a beautiful reminder of the universe’s grandeur and its countless, yet-to-be-discovered secrets. As we embark on this continuous journey of discovery, one thing is certain – every UFO sighting, every unexplained phenomenon is an open invitation from the cosmos to keep exploring, keep wondering, and keep learning.

    Remember, each time you gaze at the night sky and think of UFO sightings, let the story of the Hessdalen Lights inspire you to dream, question, and explore the limitless wonders of our universe.

    Hundreds of ancient, invisible structures discovered near our galaxy's center

    Astronomers have discovered hundreds of strange, stringlike structures at the center of our galaxy, possibly tracing the violent path of an ancient black hole eruption.

    According to new research published June 2 in The Astrophysical Journal Letters, each of these previously unknown "filaments" measures between 5 and 10 light-years in length — thousands of times the distance between the sun and Pluto — but is visible only in radio wavelengths, meaning the structures were likely created by bursts of high-energy particles that are invisible to the naked eye. 

    When seen together, the hundreds of crackling filaments seem to point directly at our galaxy's central supermassive black hole, suggesting that they may be the unhealed scars of an ancient, high-energy black hole outburst that tore through the surrounding clouds of gas.

    Related: 

    "It was a surprise to suddenly find a new population of structures that seem to be pointing in the direction of the black hole," lead study author Farhad Yusef-Zadeh, a professor of physics and astronomy at Northwestern University in Illinois, said in a statement. "I was actually stunned when I saw these … and we found that these filaments are not random but appear to be tied to the outflow of our black hole."

    The Milky Way's central supermassive black hole, dubbed Sagittarius A* (or Sgr A*), is a cosmic monster with more mass than 4 million suns. Its intense gravitational pull binds our galaxy together — but its monstrous appetite has also resulted in some severe cases of interstellar indigestion.

    Prior radio observations of Sgr A* conducted by Yusef-Zadeh's team turned up enormous bubbles of energy towering 25,000 light-years above each side of the black hole's maw, as well as roughly 1,000 vertical, strand-like radio filaments emanating from Sgr A* like the strings of an immense harp. Both of these mysterious phenomena were likely created by an ancient outburst from our galaxy's black hole, Yusef-Zadeh has suggested.

    The enormous radio bubbles at our galaxy's center (blue) are likely evidence of a black hole eruption millions of years ago.

    To detect the new crop of spindly, horizontal radio filaments, the researchers enhanced recent observations from the South African Radio Astronomy Observatory's MeerKAT telescope — an array of 64 interlinked radio antennas in South Africa — and reduced the background noise of nearby energy sources. The resulting images showed that the newfound filaments are about as thin as the previously discovered forest of vertical filaments. However, these new strands of energy appear to radiate from only one side of Sgr A*, whereas the previously discovered filaments line up all across the galactic center. 

    The newly discovered structures are also much shorter than their vertical counterparts, and there are far fewer of them. Despite these cosmetic differences, the researchers suspect the newfound structures were created by a similar eruption of energy from our galaxy's central black hole that may have occurred around 6 million years ago, the team estimated.

    "It seems to be the result of an interaction of that outflowing material with objects near it," Yusef-Zadeh concluded. However, he added, his team must make new radio observations to "continually challenge our ideas and tighten up our analysis" of the violent past life of the monster at the center of our galaxy

    Bob Lazar UFO crash retrieval

    Bob Lazar Is Telling Truth, Says Those Worked On UFO Crash Retrieval Programs; Diana Pasulka Reveals

    The authenticity of Bob Lazar has always been questioned due to his failure to provide substantial credentials. Critics have often pointed out this lack of evidence, which has raised doubts about his credibility. However, despite the skepticism, there are also many individuals who support Lazar because of the knowledge he has shared with the public. Since his initial public appearance in 1989, Lazar has remained steadfast in his claims and has not altered his story, which some argue enhances his credibility on the topic of UFOs.

    Lazar’s credibility has been a subject of scrutiny. Skeptics have pointed out inconsistencies in his background, including the fact that the educational institutions he claimed to have attended had no record of him. Additionally, Lazar faced legal trouble, being charged for involvement in an illegal activity unrelated to his UFO claims.

    While Lazar has provided limited physical evidence, such as a W-2 form indicating income from the Department of Naval Intelligence, even that has been questioned for its authenticity. Critics have highlighted discrepancies in the form’s wording, casting doubt on its validity.

    Glen Meek, an Emmy award-winning former Las Vegas investigative reporter wrote:

    I covered Lazar’s criminal case as a reporter for KTNV-TV in 1990. I remember him pleading guilty to pandering and I recall thinking: if his saucer stories were true, and he’s typical of the scientists we have working on the most significant scientific project in history — then our planet might be in deep doo-do.

    Yet, credibility issues aside, and despite a dearth of physical evidence and lack of corroboration from other scientists, Lazar’s astounding tale has not only survived over three decades — but thrived.

    His claims received renewed attention in 2018 thanks to a documentary produced by movie maker Jeremy Corbell. The documentary — widely viewed on Netflix — led to Lazar appearing on the Joe Rogan podcast, possibly the most popular podcast on the planet (this planet, anyway). Corbell, meanwhile, has been interviewed multiple times recently on network news talk shows. He is the source of at least one, recently leaked UAP video that depicts what appear to be triangular shapes moving through the sky.

    Corbell — in the interviews I’ve seen — has not claimed the UAP videos show alien intelligence at work. But he did say in his documentary that he believed there was more evidence Bob Lazar was telling the truth than there was that he was lying.

    Assuming Lazar has been telling the truth — can the report avoid conceding that? Wouldn’t the Pentagon have to say, at the very least, “Well, Senators, we’re not sure what’s causing all these recent UAP sightings, but we can tell you that we have an alien technology in our possession capable of performing the same kind of high-speed, gravity-defying maneuvers we’re seeing in these videos.” Of course, such news would be the biggest story since Genesis.

    One thing you can say about Lazar after all these years: he was unequivocal. Lazar did not drop vague, tantalizing hints (as some have recently done in the media) that American scientists have possible ‘exotic materials’ that need further testing to determine whether they’re of alien origin. Lazar flat out said our scientists have nine captive alien craft (nine!), that they’ve been studying these craft for more than thirty years, and that he personally wrenched on the machines.”

    Agreeing with Meek on Lazar, Leslie Kean and Ralph Blumenthal recently published a piece on The Debrief writing, “A former intelligence official turned whistleblower has given Congress and the Intelligence Community Inspector General extensive classified information about deeply covert programs that he says possess retrieved intact and partially intact craft of non-human origin.”

    Read also:

    David Charles Grusch, a whistleblower and former combat officer in Afghanistan, has come forward with information about unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP). Grusch, a veteran of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) and the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO), claims that the government, its allies, and defense contractors have been recovering partial fragments and intact vehicles related to these phenomena for decades.

    According to Grusch, analysis of these objects has revealed their “exotic origin” and suggests the presence of non-human intelligence, whether extraterrestrial or of unknown origin. This determination is based on vehicle morphologies, material science testing, unique atomic arrangements, and radiological signatures.

    Based on this, Lazar’s claims sound true and certainly, he has supported individuals who are involved in crash retrieval programs, according to Diana Pasulka, a professor at the University of North Carolina and author of the book American Cosmic.

    Pasulka says belief in UFOs and extraterrestrials is becoming a kind of religion — and it is not nearly as fringe as one might think. In her recent interview with Danny Jones on Koncrete, her perspective on the Bob Lazar story.

    She does not explicitly state whether she believes or disbelieves it, acknowledging that there is a lot of information and discrediting surrounding Lazar. She mentions that she knows people associated with [UFO]programs that work with phenomena and claims of back engineering, and they believe Lazar’s story. However, she cannot confirm their claims.

    Pasulka finds the situation confusing, just like everyone else, and mentions that one piece of information not widely known is that if such information were to come out, it would not be through someone with a Ph.D., but rather through individuals who could easily be discredited if necessary.

    One perplexing aspect to Pasulka is the fact that if Lazar is a genuine whistleblower exposing one of the government’s most secretive programs, it is puzzling that he still receives government contracts and continues to work on various projects. She compares this to other whistleblowers who typically face consequences and are not supported by the government.

    Pasulka also notes the polarizing nature of the debate, with scientists vehemently opposing Lazar while others with similar credentials support him. She questions why Lazar has not engaged in a proper scientific debate or discussion and suggests that he may not be able to keep up with scientists in terms of specific questions and inquiries. Additionally, Pasulka mentions that Lazar himself has expressed regret about coming forward with his story, which could explain his reluctance to engage in further debates.

    Regarding Lazar’s intelligence, Pasulka discusses the idea that some individuals may be geniuses in specific areas but lack the broader knowledge and expertise acquired through extensive education. She mentions Tyler as an example, who graduated from college but has numerous patents in biotechnology-related fields. This implies that Lazar may have been highly skilled in a specific domain but may not possess the comprehensive knowledge associated with advanced academic institutions like MIT.

    Astronomers using the Webb telescope discovered evidence of complex organic molecules in a galaxy more than 12 billion light-years away. In this false-color Webb image, the foreground galaxy is shown in blue, while the background galaxy is red. The organic molecules are highlighted in orange.

    JWST Sees Organic Molecules Ludicrously Far Away

    When astronomers used the JWST to look at a galaxy more than 12 billion light years away, they were also looking back in time. And when they found organic molecules in that distant galaxy, they found them in the early Universe.

    The organic molecules are usually found where stars are forming, but in this case, they’re not.

    The organic molecules are polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) which scientists think are building blocks for life. They occur naturally here on Earth as by-products of combustion. They’re also prevalent in the interstellar medium (ISM), the matter and radiation in between stars. They indicate regions of cold gas from which stars form.

    Finding PAHs in a distant, ancient galaxy required advanced technology, skill, and some fortuitous luck. The JWST provided the technology with its keen infrared observing capabilities, and a foreground galaxy only 3 billion light years away lined up with the distant galaxy provided the luck. It’s lined up just right and acts as a gravitational lens, amplifying the light from the distant galaxy.

    “Discoveries like this are precisely what Webb was built to do: understand the earliest stages of the universe in new and exciting ways.”

    Kedar Phadke, University of Illinois

    The distant galaxy is called SPT0418-47. Not only is it 12 billion light years away, but astronomers are seeing the light it emitted when the Universe was only 10% of its current age, about 1.5 billion years after the Big Bang.

    SPT0418-47’s ancient light forms a ring around the foreground galaxy called an Einstein ring. Einstein predicted these rings in his theory of general relativity. With the light amplified, the powerful JWST examined it with its Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI.)

    The galaxy observed by Webb shows an Einstein ring caused by a phenomenon known as lensing, which occurs when two galaxies are almost perfectly aligned from our perspective on Earth. The gravity from the galaxy in the foreground causes the light from the background galaxy to be distorted and magnified, like looking through the stem of a wine glass. Because they are magnified, lensing allows astronomers to study very distant galaxies in more detail than otherwise possible. Image Credit: S. Doyle / J. Spilker

    The researchers who found the PAHs come from different institutions in North and South America and Europe. They presented their findings in an article in Nature titled “Spatial variations in aromatic hydrocarbon emission in a dust-rich galaxy.” The lead author is Justin Spilker from the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Texas A&M University.

    “By combining Webb’s amazing capabilities with a natural ‘cosmic magnifying glass,’ we were able to see even more detail than we otherwise could,” said lead author Spilker. “That level of magnification is actually what made us interested in looking at this galaxy with Webb in the first place because it really lets us see all the rich details of what makes up a galaxy in the early universe that we could never do otherwise.”

    There are several types of PAHs, but one thing they have in common is size. Even the simplest one, naphthalene, has 10 carbon atoms and 8 hydrogen atoms. Larger ones can have 50 carbon atoms.

    “These big molecules are actually pretty common in space,” Spilker explained. “Astronomers used to think they were a good sign that new stars were forming. Anywhere you saw these molecules, baby stars were also right there blazing away.”

    PAHs have long been associated with star birth. Astronomers have found them in regions of active star birth in different parts of the Milky Way. They’ve also spotted the large molecules near bright young stars.

    Orion is the closest star-forming region to Earth, and this image shows the Barnard 30 region in Orion. The stars in this region are young, only about 2 to 3 million years old. PAHs are abundant, seen as dark red at the lower left and bottom center. Image Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech

    But in this case, the ancient galaxy contains abundant PAHs absent star formation, and star formation absent PAHs.

    “Thanks to the high-definition images from Webb, we found a lot of regions with smoke but no star formation and others with new stars forming but no smoke,” Spilker said.

    Something’s going on in distant, ancient SPT0418-47 that needs a rethink. The link between PAHs and star formation is not as strong as once thought. Or not in the early Universe, anyway.

    Astronomers can’t reach a conclusion based on observations of one galaxy. The mismatch between the presence of PAHs and star formation can only be understood with more observations. Astronomers can lean on the JWST to provide more.

    “Discoveries like this are precisely what Webb was built to do: understand the earliest stages of the universe in new and exciting ways,” said the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign graduate student Kedar Phadke, who led the technical development of the team’s Webb observations. “It’s amazing that we can identify molecules billions of light-years away that we’re familiar with here on Earth, even if they show up in ways we don’t like, like smog and smoke. It’s also a powerful statement about the amazing capabilities of Webb that we’ve never had before.”

    It took some sleuthing to differentiate between the infrared light from PAHs and from larger dust grains. Dust grains absorb about half of the radiation from stars throughout the Universe’s history and emit it as infrared light. All that infrared light from simple dust can cloud the picture of early galaxies.

    Joaquin Vieira is an astronomy and physics professor at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and was part of the research team. “This project started when I was in graduate school studying hard-to-detect, very distant galaxies obscured by dust,” Vieira said. “Dust grains absorb and re-emit about half of the stellar radiation produced in the universe, making infrared light from distant objects extremely faint or undetectable through ground-based telescopes.”

    Prior to the JWST’s launch, there was no way to really observe these ancient galaxies. Instead, astronomers made do with what are known as bright compact dwarf (BCD) galaxies. These small galaxies are similar to the small galaxies that astronomers thought were common in the early Universe. Many researchers think that our galaxy and others like it grew so large via mergers involving BCDs. Some BCDs allowed for the creation of PAHs, but young stars shining brightly in UV could also destroy PAHs.

    BCDs were used as stand-ins for ancient galaxies, and while observations were tantalizing, there were always questions. However, those early galaxies were out of reach.

    But the JWST’s formidable infrared observing power has changed that. When combined with gravitational lensing, the picture of distant objects becomes clearer.

    “We didn’t expect this,” Vieira said. “Detecting these complex organic molecules at such a vast distance is game-changing regarding future observations. This work is just the first step, and we’re just now learning how to use it and learn its capabilities. We are very excited to see how this plays out.”

    Since PAHs contain carbon, astronomers think they can only exist once generations of stars have lived and died. Elements heavier than hydrogen and helium weren’t created by the Big Bang. Only stellar nucleosynthesis can create them. Once they’re created in stars, they’re spread out into the Universe when the star “dies.”

    “What this research is telling us right now – and we are still learning – is that we can see all of the regions where these smaller dust grains are located – regions that we could never see before the JWST,” Phadke said. “The new spectroscopic data lets us observe the galaxy’s atomic and molecular composition, providing very important insights into the formation of galaxies, their lifecycle and how they evolve.”

    There’s no explanation yet for why PAHs are seen absent of star formation and vice versa. If observations of other ancient galaxies display the same thing, then astronomers are onto something.

    These new JWST observations come from TEMPLATES, an early-release science program. TEMPLATES stands for Targeting Extremely Magnified Panchromatic Lensed Arcs and Their Extended Star formation. “Lensing magnification pushes JWST to the highest spatial resolutions possible at these redshifts,” the TEMPLATES team wrote, “to map the key spectral diagnostics of star formation and dust extinction: H-alpha, Pa-alpha, and 3.3um PAH within individual distant galaxies.”

    TEMPLATES features observations of four galaxies, all through gravitational lensing. Two of the four galaxies are extremely dusty, and telescopes like the Hubble can’t see into them. But the JWST can pierce the dusty veil and map the dust. By doing that, it found PAHs and possibly new aspects of star formation prevalent in the early Universe.

    “These are early days for the Webb Telescope, so astronomers are excited to see all the new things it can do for us,” Spilker said. “Detecting smoke in a galaxy early in the history of the universe? Webb makes this look easy. Now that we’ve shown this is possible for the first time, we’re looking forward to trying to understand whether it’s really true that where there’s smoke, there’s fire. Maybe we’ll even be able to find galaxies that are so young that complex molecules like these haven’t had time to form in the vacuum of space yet, so galaxies are all fire and no smoke. The only way to know for sure is to look at more galaxies, hopefully even further away than this one.”

    Former intelligence official claims U.S. has retrieved craft of non-human origin

    A former intelligence official turned whistleblower has given Congress and the Intelligence Community Inspector General extensive classified information about deeply covert programs that he says possess retrieved intact and partially intact craft of non-human origin. 

    The whistleblower, David Charles Grusch states: "The recoveries of partial fragments through and up to intact vehicles have been made for decades through the present day by the government, its allies, and defense contractors." 
    Associates who vouched for Grusch said his information was highly sensitive, providing evidence that materials from objects of non-human origin are in the possession of highly secret black programs.

    Former Intelligence Officer Accuses Government of Concealing Extraterrestrial Tech from Congress

    triangle-ufo-usa

    With our vast universe and countless galaxies, the intrigue around extraterrestrial life continues to grow. The keyword “UFO sightings” has surged in popularity, reflecting a significant curiosity within our society. The topic of UFO sightings has taken an interesting turn with recent allegations against the government’s clandestine activities.

    In the wake of several UFO sightings reported by Navy pilots, and revelations around secret Defense funding directed towards the investigation of unidentified foreign objects, a compelling story has emerged, hinting at a possible government cover-up of alien technology. The central figure in this developing narrative is a Defense Intelligence whistleblower, David Charles Grusch.

    Grusch has dropped a bombshell, accusing the Intelligence Community of concealing classified evidence pointing towards “intact and partially intact craft of non-human origin”. This is certainly a captivating claim that could potentially change our understanding of UFO sightings and extraterrestrial intelligence.

    An experienced combat veteran with a respectable service record in Afghanistan, Grusch was a part of the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force, responsible for investigating UFO sightings. His tenure at the National Reconnaissance Office, one of the top five U.S. intelligence agencies, lends credibility to his assertions. He posits that fragments of exotic origin, hinting at non-human intelligence, have been recovered by the Pentagon and other entities.

    Backing up Grusch’s claims is Karl Nell, a retired Army colonel and fellow member of the UFO task force, who vouches for Grusch’s integrity. Nell affirms the ongoing competition between nations to retrieve and reverse-engineer materials from UFO crash sites. The implications of this claim are enormous – suggesting a covert terrestrial arms race that has been ongoing for nearly eighty years, revolving around technology of unknown, likely non-human, origin.

    Jonathan Grey, another intelligence official investigating UFO sightings, supports these assertions. He openly acknowledges the existence of non-human intelligence, stating, “The non-human intelligence phenomenon is real. We are not alone.”

    Further intrigue is added to this narrative with the revelation that evidence of extraterrestrial tech has been illicitly withheld from Congressional oversight. This provocative claim speaks of an intentional effort to obstruct legitimate governmental investigation into UFO sightings and related phenomena. Grusch’s allegations sparked an intelligence investigation, causing waves within the Intelligence Community.

    An Exclusive Monday Evening Interview with Whistleblower Grusch

    The UFO sightings and alleged concealment of alien technology present a startling possibility of what might be hidden from the public view. As the revelations around these claims continue to unfold, society’s curiosity and search for keywords like “UFO sightings” will undoubtedly persist.

    As we navigate the uncertainty of these revelations, the words of Grusch ring in our ears, hoping his claims would provide an “ontological shock.” Whether these allegations can unravel the mystery behind UFO sightings remains to be seen. However, one thing is clear: this intrigue has opened a new chapter in our quest to understand our universe and our place within it.

    New 'quasi-moon' discovered near Earth has been traveling alongside our planet since 100 BC

    Scientists recently discovered an asteroid that tags along with Earth during its yearly journey around the sun. 

    Dubbed 2023 FW13, the space rock is considered a "quasi-moon" or "quasi-satellite," meaning it orbits the sun in a similar time frame as Earth does, but is only slightly influenced by our planet’s gravitational pull. It is estimated to be 50 feet (15 meters) in diameter — roughly equivalent to three large SUVs parked bumper to bumper. During its orbit of the sun, 2023 FW13 also circles Earth, coming within 9 million miles (14 million kilometers) of our planet. For comparison, the moon has a diameter of 2,159 miles (3,474 km) and comes within 226,000 miles (364,000 km) of Earth at the closest point of its orbit, according to NASA

    2023 FW13 was first observed in March by the Pan-STARRS observatory, which is located atop the volcanic mountain Haleakalā in Hawaii. The asteroid's existence was then confirmed by the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope in Hawaii and two observatories in Arizona before being officially listed on April 1 by the Minor Planet Center at the International Astronomical Union, a network of scientists responsible for designating new planets, moons and other objects in the solar system.

    Some estimates suggest that 2023 FW13 has been Earth's cosmic neighbor since at least 100 B.C. and that the space rock will continue to follow this orbital path until around A.D. 3700, Adrien Coffinet, an astronomer and journalist who first categorized the asteroid as a quasi-moon after modeling its orbit, told Sky & Telescope.

    "It seems to be the longest quasi-satellite of Earth known to date," Coffinet said.

    Following 2023 FW13's initial discovery in March, space observers dug into the data and found observations of the asteroid dating all the way back to 2012, according to Live Science's sister site Space.com

    Despite hovering relatively close to Earth, this quasi-satellite likely isn't on a collision course with our planet. 

    "The good news is, such an orbit doesn't result in an impacting trajectory 'out of the blue,'" Alan Harris, an astronomer at the Space Science Institute, told Sky & Telescope. 

    This is not Earth's only quasi-companion; a different quasi-satellite known as Kamo'oalewa was discovered in 2016. The rock sticks similarly close to our planet during its orbit around the sun, and a 2021 study suggested that this asteroid could actually be a fragment of Earth's moon

    Mabel White Abduction Is Most Compelling Alien Encounter: ‘They Want Our Bodies’

    The alien abduction cases are often considered in the category of fringe as individuals who claimed to have been abducted have only a story to share. Does that mean they are lying? Probably not. They might have seen and experienced things that are either some unknown natural phenomena or aliens that are behind them. Mabel White is among the few alien abductees with a compelling story that seems true to many.

    John Ege from Medium writes: “UFO and alien abductions likely go back before the modern era. To hear Erich von Däniken, author of Chariots of the Gods, say it, it’s been going on since the beginning of humanity.” And interestingly, Ege states that there is no psychological or social phenomenon that explains alien abductions, and John E Mack, Harvard Professor agreed with it.

    On April 23, 2023, Eyes On Cinema published a never-seen interview of Mabel White (video is mentioned below), where she talks about her encounter with extraterrestrial beings and their puzzling motives behind what she refers to as a “hybridization” program. White’s testimony offers a glimpse into an enigmatic world where otherworldly forces are said to manipulate human biology for unknown purposes.

    “They told me they were making a hybrid race, but they never revealed the true purpose behind it,” White shares, her voice filled with curiosity and confusion. “I asked them why they were gathering eggs and engaging in these activities, but they never provided a clear answer.”

    White vividly recalls incidents from her childhood in the 1930s, where she and her family would witness peculiar lights hovering over oil wells. On multiple occasions, they spotted small children dressed in white near these wells, both during the day and night. Curiosity piqued, White and her family attempted to approach these ethereal beings, but they always vanished before they could make contact.

    “The main concept conveyed to me was the creation of a hybrid breed that could exist in both our atmosphere and theirs,” White explains. “They claimed they hadn’t yet achieved the desired outcome.”

    In a particularly vivid memory, White describes being shown a baby that appeared human but with slightly slanted eyes. She immediately recognized the child as her own and expressed a desire to take the child with her. However, the extraterrestrials informed her that the child would not survive in Earth’s atmosphere.

    White’s conviction in the reality of her experiences is unwavering. She cites physical evidence, such as dirt on her body that could not have been obtained from simply stepping out of a car, as proof of the authenticity of her encounters. She also speaks of unexplained bruises that appeared overnight, emphasizing that no one can physically harm her in her sleep.

    “The bruises are real. I couldn’t have caused them myself, and if someone had hit me, I would have woken up,” White asserts. “These experiences are real to me, and they are not inherently frightening. They just happen, and they leave an indelible mark.”

    While initially frightened by her lack of conscious awareness during these events, White eventually found peace in accepting that she could not alter or control them. She believes that humans are powerless against these advanced extraterrestrial beings, both mentally and technologically.

    Read also:

    “They are too far advanced for us to defend ourselves,” she states. “It’s as if they possess a kind of magic. They could easily conquer us if they desired, but I don’t believe their intention is to dominate through violence. Instead, they seek our bodies and minds to carry out their own agenda.”

    White contends that the aliens’ focus lies not in government control, but rather in the manipulation and utilization of human beings to fulfill their undisclosed objectives. She expresses a sense of resignation, acknowledging that humans play a vital role in their mysterious plans.

    As Mable White’s testimony brings to light the secrets behind her alleged alien encounters, it leaves us with more questions than answers. What is the true purpose behind the hybridization program? What role do humans play in the extraterrestrial agenda?

    Mack hypothesized that these entities might have just come from a parallel universe rather than from space. When he finally published his book “Abduction: Human Encounters with Aliens,” he claimed that his experiences had “amply corroborated” Hopkins and Jacobs’ research, “particularly that the abduction phenomena is in some central way implicated in a breeding program that leads to the development of alien/human hybrid progeny.” Almost all of his abductees returned with “a resolve to changing their relationship to the earth,” which led him to the further conclusion that the aliens were bearing warnings about threats to the planet.

    The idea of alien hybridization has recently been endorsed by former CIA John Ramirez. In an interview with Project Unity, Ramirez stated that humans are hybrids. According to him, former US Intelligence agent Lue Elizondo is unable to use the word “hybridization,” but the Pentagon employees are counting on him to do so eventually.

    Elizondo discusses the possibility that non-human intelligence has been in contact with humans for a very long time on the Theories of Everything podcast. This would imply that we have all forgotten about our own past, which would hide the possibility that we are hybrids of humans and extraterrestrials.

    Moreover, the alien abduction of Kim Carlsberg, a commercial photographer, is a modern-day case of alien-human hybridization. She was abducted by a grey alien in 1988 while she was living on the beach in Pacific Palisades. She cliamed that the beings used her DNA and combined it with someone else’s sperm, creating hybrid children. These fetuses were then grown on the alien spaceships, and in some instances, abductees reported being allowed to see the hybrid offspring during subsequent encounters.

    The nature and purpose behind these reported hybridization programs remain speculative. Some theories suggest that extraterrestrial beings may be attempting to create a new species or reintroduce hybrids to Earth in the future when conditions are more suitable. Carlsberg herself expressed her belief that something strange and potentially significant is occurring to individuals who claim to have been abducted. The prevalence of such reports and the emotional impact described by abductees contribute to the ongoing discussion and exploration of this puzzling phenomenon.

    Tom DeLonge Telekinesis

    Tom DeLonge Claims Secret DoD Document From UFO Program Proves Telekinesis Is Real

    Tom DeLonge, the former lead vocalist and guitarist of the popular band Blink-182, has always had a keen interest in UFOs. He has spent many years researching and studying the topic. He has even formed a company, To The Stars Academy of Arts and Science (or To The Stars) to investigate and promote research on UFOs and other related phenomena.

    DeLonge’s To The Stars is behind publishing the three footages (captured in 2004 and 2015 by the US Navy) that were released in 2017 and 2018. They depict UFOs and include audio recordings of the pilots. These videos gained a lot of attention when they were released.

    His interest in UFOs began at a young age. As a child, DeLonge was fascinated by stories of alien encounters and sightings. He used to spend hours reading books and watching documentaries about UFOs, and was particularly interested in the famous Roswell incident of 1947, where a UFO allegedly crashed in New Mexico.

    DeLonge’s research led him to conclude that UFOs are real and that they are of extra-terrestrial origin. He believes that there is a wealth of evidence to support this conclusion, including reports of sightings and encounters, as well as physical evidence such as radar tracks and photographs.

    During a podcast with Daniel P Carter of BBC Radio 1 Rock, DeLonge disclosed that he has a secret official Pentagon document from a UFO program that shows telekinesis is a real ability. He believes that telekinesis has been proven in the lab and that consciousness precedes matter, and once we discover that, life is going to get very interesting.

    He suggests that we have the ability to heal ourselves and create new types of Sciences and Engineering tweets. He also believes that telepathy is going to be a part of it, and that they have found an area in the brain that they believe is where telepathy happens. He thinks that once people accept all of the stuff that they have been talking about, it’s going to change the world. Below is the transcript of his conversation with Carter:

    I always tell people there is this really cool document (that I have) that was a part of the UFO program where they were studying a kid in China who can move objects with his mind. He is around 10 years old, so they wanted to figure out how that’s possible, and they recreated it in the lab.

    I have the whole Department of Defense document, and it goes through it and says they were able to put a piece of paper in a glass jar, screw the lid on it, and move the paper through the lid and then six feet across the floor, all with their mind. 100 people can do this, only 10 have mastered it, and it was just wild.

    So telekinesis has been proven in the lab, but no one knows about it. I’m like, to be able to move things with the force, like in Star Wars, is a big deal. It sounds ridiculous, that’s why, and within the current paradigm, it sounds ridiculous. I’m sure, or you won’t remember, but we had a conversation at the Reading Festival many years ago where I think I probably came across as a total maniac, even to someone as open-minded as yourself. But, I was talking about reading a bunch of different things, which means nothing, but I was looking at different realms of consciousness because that’s the basis of everything I believe.

    I believe that consciousness precedes matter and I highly agree with you. Because the current paradigm is that consciousness is a facet that’s created by matter, which is just this weird thing that’s come about because our brains are complicated and that’s nonsense. I think it’s exactly the opposite and once we discover that stuff, life is going to get very interesting.

    Once we discover that mind over matter, not the other way around, we will have the ability to heal ourselves, create new types of Sciences and Engineering, and become a civilization where telepathy is a part of it. I believe that’s all going to happen. There is one person, who was up for the Nobel last year, is one of the top geneticists in the world, at one of the Ivy League schools that we are working with, who worked on part of the UFO program at the Pentagon. I was talking to him, and they found an area in the brain that they believe is where telepathy happens, and he believes he can create something to enhance it by a thousand times, like some type of drug that targets that area of the brain.

    So, that’s the thing, people do think it’s ridiculous, but not the people who have an open enough mind to research and jump in. These guys are like World leading PhDs, and that’s been the kind of the story of my life, is everything I’ve told, even on Rogan, is not made up, it’s coming from somewhere, and I can’t say where it’s coming from, but at the end of the day, it’s all real. I think it’s going to be a very exciting time once people accept all of the stuff that we’ve been talking about here on this interview, I think it’s going to really change the world.”

    Moreover, as in the January 2022 Thrasher Magazine issue, DeLonge was asked: “Would you say UFOs are driven by aliens or do you think it’s more like a drone?” He replied: “I think both.” He suggested that it is important to note that while studying UFOs, we must be aware of the fact that they could be remotely controlled and may have occupants. (Source)

    “I think the biggest misconception is that they are coming from other planets. Evidence doesn’t really support that. The evidence supports that it’s dimensional and that it’s parallel timelines that exist with frequency. It’s really complicated, different, and interesting. But once you understand that, you have no way out of reexamining the religious world and wondering what the Star of Bethlehem really was,” DeLonge explained.

    Further, he was asked if UFOs or aliens are coming from the oceans. He said that while the origin of UFOs is a separate conversation, it is believed that they do exist in our oceans. With the use of sensors placed throughout the ocean to detect submarines and other objects, it has been reported that there have been sightings of unidentified submerged objects (USOs).

    In one instance, a helicopter pilot was testing torpedoes, and a navy SEAL was sent down on a wire to retrieve the torpedo. However, as soon as he touched the water, a large craft came underneath him, took the torpedo, and left at the high speed. The navy SEAL was in shock and panicked, requesting to be pulled up immediately. Although there were initial plans to have the witnesses speak on television, they later backed out, and some of them testified to the committee. Nonetheless, similar incidents continue to occur frequently, and it is, indeed, extraordinary.

    DeLonge’s views on UFOs have been met with both praise and criticism. Some people believe that his research is valuable and that it is important to investigate and study UFOs in an open and honest manner. Others believe that DeLonge’s opinion is misguided and that there is no evidence to support his conclusions.

    Despite the criticism, DeLonge remains committed to his research and wants to continue promoting the truth about UFOs. He believes that UFOs are real and that they are of extra-terrestrial origin, and that the truth about UFOs should be investigated and studied openly and honestly. Through his work To The Stars, DeLonge hopes to bring more attention to the topic of UFOs and to promote research and discussion about this fascinating phenomenon.

    Why NASA Needs An Office To Study "Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena"

    UFO sensationalism disrupts science. Creating a dedicated NASA office may help.

    A man standing on a hill looking at glowing UFO lights in the sky. With a blurred, grunge edit.

    Despite an effort to rebrand UFOs, the stigma remains.

    They are now called “unidentified anomalous phenomena” (UAP), and currently, U.S. officials are aware of more than 800 cases since 1996. On Wednesday the public got to hear from Pentagon personnel and members of a special Avengers-esque team of experts that NASA convened last year. They detailed what’s known so far about these puzzling sightings, and what the future holds.

    “I think the very term ‘UAP’ was intended to get away from the assumptions and baggage that are part of the term ‘UFO,’” NASA UAP team member Mike Gold said to reporters on Wednesday afternoon, following the public presentation. Gold is the executive vice president of Civil Space and External Affairs at Redwire in Jacksonville, Florida. Prior to Redwire, Gold worked at NASA in several roles, including associate administrator for Space Policy and Partnerships.

    “I believe words matter. Words have power. And I think what was trying to be achieved with that terminology [‘UAP’], what we’re trying to do with this group, is to be agnostic, to be objective, and to look at this issue purely from a scientific perspective, without bias,” he said.

    One of several UAP reported by military personnel, sparking recent debates.

    WHY NASA SHOULD STAY IN THE UAP GAME

    One idea that Gold floated was the creation of a NASA UAP office. The space agency is months away from publishing its official recommendations for the Pentagon’s All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), which runs the investigations and is charged with figuring them out. NASA is playing a different, yet special, role. Of the more than 800 UAP reports since 1996, AARO director Sean Kirkpatrick said Wednesday that several dozen of them — roughly two to five percent — remain unsolved.

    They might stay that way, too. Members of the NASA team like Federica Bianco, joint professor at the University of Delaware in the Department of Physics and Astrophysics, the Biden School of Public Policy and Administration and a senior scientist at the Multi-city Urban Observatory, said Wednesday that the data on the unresolved UAP sightings was poor. The team argued that a proactive approach could be the way.

    Gold was skeptical about the pace of the UAP work, and how it might dwindle without a dedicated office at NASA.

    “As we mentioned previously during the panel, I’ve been part of far too many blue-ribbon studies and groups that produce reports that have just laid on the shelf. I think we have an inflection point, an opportunity here, with leadership that [NASA] Administrator Bill Nelson has showed, to institutionalize this and be able to tackle the issues that we’ve laid out in a comprehensive and serious fashion. I think that requires a permanent office at NASA to effectively deal with the issues that we’ve laid out,” Gold said.

    “None of the topics or challenges here can be dealt with quickly. And it really requires a permanent solution. And I think that can be implemented for a modest financial cost,” he added. “So that’s certainly something that I can say personally we’ll be pushing and recommending to proceed with. If we don’t institutionalize something at NASA, the fear is it can go away far too quickly.”

    After Gold’s remarks, Daniel Evans, the assistant deputy associate administrator for research at NASA’s Science Mission Directorate, clarified that if and when NASA would seek funding for a UAP office is unknown. But it would be public, just as are all NASA budgetary requests.

    To help AARO investigate UAP and their potential threat to airspace safety, a NASA UAP office could continue the team’s work. Their work may end later this summer, once they file their report to AARO, where they might recommend uses for existing technology to observe UAP phenomena as it happens, and provide what several team members called an analytic “roadmap.”

    A NASA office would also continue perhaps its biggest contribution of all: a strong emphasis on the scientific method. This would deter UAP stigma, the team argued. With less stigma, there’d be less harassment of the team, and perhaps more witnesses would come forward and report their own UAP experiences.

    There are roadblocks, according to David Spergel, team leader and president of the Simons Foundation.

    “I feel, in addressing this issue, we steer between the rocks and the cyclone. We have a community of people who are completely convinced of the existence of UFOs. And we have a community of people who think addressing this question is ridiculous,” he said. “I think as scientists the way to approach questions is, start by saying, ‘we don’t know.’ And then you collect data, and you try to calibrate your data well.”

    Spergel then offered a new take on a common analogy. “The first step if you want to find needles in haystacks when you don’t even know what to look for, is you want to learn and to characterize the haystack really well. If you understand hay well, and measure and observe hay well, you can find things… I think the biggest challenge is that you have a community out there that thinks the haystack is filled with gold. And another community saying you’re nuts to look in a haystack for anything interesting. There’s nothing there.”

    New Satellite Successfully Beams Power From Space

    Solar power is the fastest-growing form of renewable energy and currently accounts for 3.6% of global electricity production today. This makes it the third largest source of the renewable energy market, followed by hydroelectric power and wind. These three methods are expected to grow exponentially in the coming decades, reaching 40% by 2035 and 45% by 2050. Altogether, renewables are expected to account for 90% of the energy market by mid-century, with solar accounting for roughly half. However, several technical challenges and issues need to be overcome for this transition to occur.

    The main limiting factor for solar power is intermittency, meaning it can only collect power when sufficient sunlight is available. To address this, scientists have spent decades researching space-based solar power (SBSP), where satellites in orbit would collect power 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, without interruption. To develop the technology, researchers with the Space Solar Power Project (SSPP) at Caltech recently completed the first successful wireless power transfer using the Microwave Array for Power-transfer Low-orbit Experiment (MAPLE).

    MAPLE was developed by a Caltech team led by Ali Hajimiri, the Bren Professor of Electrical Engineering and Medical Engineering and the co-director of the SSPP. MAPLE is one of three key technologies tested by the Space Solar Power Demonstrator (SSPD-1). This platform consists of an array of flexible, lightweight microwave transmitters controlled by custom electronic chips. The demonstrator was built using low-cost silicon technologies designed to harvest solar energy and beam it to desired receiving stations worldwide.

    The SSPP began in 2011 when Donald Bren, a lifetime member of the Caltech Board of Trustees, approached Caltech’s then-president Jean-Lou Chameau to discuss the creation of an SBSP research project. Bren and his wife (also a Caltech trustee) agreed to donate a total of $100 million to fund the project, while the Northrop Grumman Corporation provided an additional $12.5 million. The SSPD-1 launched on January 3rd atop a SpaceX Falcon 9 as part of a rideshare program and was deployed by a Vigoride spacecraft (provided by aerospace company Momentus).

    For SBSP to be feasible, the satellites need to be lightweight so they can be launched in a cost-effective way and flexible so they can fit inside payload fairings (similar to the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). Harry Atwater, the Otis Booth Leadership Chair of the Division of Engineering and Applied Science, the Howard Hughes Professor of Applied Physics and Materials Science, and the Director of the Liquid Sunlight Alliance, is one of the project’s principal investigators. As he explained in a Caltech press release:

    “Demonstration of wireless power transfer in space using lightweight structures is an important step toward space solar power and broad access to it globally. Solar panels already are used in space to power the International Space Station, for example, but to launch and deploy large enough arrays to provide power to Earth, SSPP has to design and create solar power energy transfer systems that are ultra-lightweight, cheap, and flexible.”

    Each SSPP unit weighs around 50 kilograms (~110 lbs), comparable with microsatellites that typically weigh between 10 and 100 kg (22 to 220 lbs). Each unit folds into packages about 1 m3 (~35 ft3) in volume and then unfurls into a flat square measuring about 50 m (164 ft) in diameter, with solar cells on one side and wireless power transmitters on the other. The SPPD-1 components are unsealed, meaning they are exposed to the extreme temperature variations of space. Beyond demonstrating that power transmitters can survive being launched into space, the experiment has provided useful feedback to SSPP engineers.

    “Through the experiments we have run so far, we received confirmation that MAPLE can transmit power successfully to receivers in space,” said Hajimiri. “We have also been able to program the array to direct its energy toward Earth, which we detected here at Caltech. We had, of course, tested it on Earth, but now we know that it can survive the trip to space and operate there.”

    The demonstrator has no moving parts and relies on constructive and destructive interference between transmission antennas to shift the focus and direction of the beamed energy. These antennas are clustered in groups of 16, each driven by a custom-made flexible integrated circuit chip. They also rely on precise timing-control elements and the coherent addition of electromagnetic waves to ensure the beamed energy reaches the intended target. Two receiver arrays are positioned about 30 cm (1 ft) from the transmission antennas that convert solar energy into direct current (DC).

    This is used to power a pair of LED lights, demonstrating the full sequence of wireless energy transmission. MAPLE successfully demonstrated this by lighting up each LED individually and shifting back and forth between them. MAPLE also includes a small window through which the array can beam energy, which was detected by a receiver at Caltech’s Gordon and Betty Moore Laboratory of Engineering. This signal was received at the expected time and frequency and had the predicted frequency shift based on its orbit.

    “To the best of our knowledge, no one has ever demonstrated wireless energy transfer in space even with expensive rigid structures,” said Hajimiri. “We are doing it with flexible lightweight structures and with our own integrated circuits. This is a first.” The team is now assessing the performance of individual system elements by testing the interference patterns of smaller groups and measuring the difference between combinations. This process could take up to six months, giving the team ample time to detect irregularities and develop solutions to inform the next generation of solar satellites.

    In addition to MAPLE, the SSPD-1 carries two other main experiments. These are the Deployable on-Orbit ultraLight Composite Experiment (DOLCE), a 1.8 x 1.8-meter (6 x 6-foot) structure designed to deploy small modular spacecraft, and ALBA, a series of 32 different types of photovoltaic cells to test which are most effective in space. The ALBA tests are ongoing while DOLCE has not yet been deployed, and results from these experiments are expected in the coming months. Meanwhile, the results from the MAPLE experiment are very encouraging and demonstrate key SBSP technologies are feasible. Said Hajimiri:

    “In the same way that the internet democratized access to information, we hope that wireless energy transfer democratizes access to energy. No energy transmission infrastructure will be needed on the ground to receive this power. That means we can send energy to remote regions and areas devastated by war or natural disaster.”

    SBSP has the potential to yield eight times more power than solar panels located on Earth’s surface. When the project is fully realized, Caltech hopes to deploy a constellation of modular spacecraft that will collect solar power, transform it into electricity, and convert it to microwaves that can be transmitted wirelessly over anywhere in the world. In addition to assisting the transition towards clean, renewable energy, it also has the potential to expand access for underserved communities. Said Caltech President Thomas F. Rosenbaum:

    “The transition to renewable energy, critical for the world’s future, is limited today by energy storage and transmission challenges. Beaming solar power from space is an elegant solution that has moved one step closer to realization due to the generosity and foresight of the Brens. Donald Bren has presented a formidable technical challenge that promises a remarkable payoff for humanity: a world powered by uninterruptible renewable energy.”

    Mysterious Crop Circles: New Appearances in the UK and Italy

    The phenomenon of crop circles, those enigmatic patterns that appear overnight in fields, continues to captivate global attention. Recently, new formations have been reported in the United Kingdom and Italy, stirring up the curiosity of enthusiasts and skeptics alike.

    First up was Broad Hinton, near Winterbourne Bassett, Wiltshire, UK, where a crop circle was discovered on the 28th of May. This location is no stranger to the phenomenon, given Wiltshire’s extensive history with crop circles. As always, the design displayed geometrical precision, with intricate, interlocking circles that extended across the green landscape. Despite numerous theories ranging from natural phenomena to extraterrestrial activity, the origin of this crop circle, like its predecessors, remains shrouded in mystery.

    Just two days later, a fascinating report came from a location further afield – Capriano del Colle, near Giulietta, Italy. On the 30th of May, locals awoke to a breathtaking design etched into the fields. This pattern was particularly intricate, its complexity showcasing an unexpected flair for artistic expression. Italy has seen an increase in crop circle activity in recent years, and this new addition to the roster further deepens the intrigue surrounding these phenomena.

    The most recent circle was reported on the 4th of June, near Field Barn, again in Winterbourne Bassett, Wiltshire, UK. The farmers found their crops mysteriously flattened into a captivating design, which appears to be distinct from the Broad Hinton circle. Both the identity of the creators and the meaning of these patterns remain undisclosed, maintaining the enigma of the crop circle phenomenon.

    These recent events continue to fuel ongoing debates about the origin and purpose of crop circles. Are they elaborate hoaxes, strange natural occurrences, or messages from beyond our understanding? Despite countless investigations, the mystery remains. But one thing is certain: crop circles continue to capture the world’s imagination, offering a sense of wonder, intrigue, and just a touch of the uncanny in our everyday world.

    In the heart of Europe: Nearly half of Slovenians believe in UFOs!

    Nestled in the heart of Europe, Slovenia is a remarkable small but mighty nation known for its diverse landscapes and rich culture. From the stunning Julian Alps and picturesque Lake Bled to the bustling streets of its capital, Ljubljana, the country combines natural beauty with historic charm. As a progressive society with a high standard of living, Slovenia is also recognized for its innovative spirit and forward-thinking population. It is within this intellectually vibrant setting that a captivating public opinion has emerged – a considerable portion of the Slovenian population believes in the existence of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP)

    Almost half of Slovenians believe in the existence of UFOs

    Almost half of Slovenians believe in the existence of UFOs

    Nearly half of the Slovenian population believes in the existence of UFOs. This fact emerged as NASA recently spoke openly for the first time about the UFO phenomenon, as they referred to it. Interestingly, they received about 800 reports of UFO sightings last year, with only about 40 considered to be suspicious.

    The belief in UFOs is not limited to the United States, where a significant number of people already believe in their existence. A recent online survey revealed that almost half of Slovenians also share this belief. This fascination reflects the famous saying from the legendary series, The X-Files’ – “The truth is out there.

    The X-Files, one of the most successful series dealing with unidentified flying objects and the existence of extraterrestrial beings, foregrounded conspiracy theories and the belief that the government is hiding the existence of UFOs. Despite concluding in 2018, the show’s impact is still evident in the sustained interest in UFOs and extraterrestrial life.

    According to a January report from the Pentagon, UFO sightings have been on the rise since 2021. The US Department of Defense established a division last year for the analysis and collection of data on UFO encounters. Furthermore, NASA initiated a comprehensive study last year on unidentified flying objects and other phenomena that cannot be easily explained. The first findings of this study were reported last week.

    According to a 2021 Pew Research Center study, around 65% of Americans believe in the existence of intelligent beings on other planets, and 51% consider unidentified flying objects reported by military personnel as proof of intelligent extraterrestrial life.

    The social survey on opinions and perceptions of the phenomenon of UFOs in Slovenia was conducted by Talk Online Panel, and it was conducted online between May 15 and 21 of this year. 1,000 respondents aged between 18 and 65 took part in it.

    Regarding Slovenian perceptions of this phenomenon, a survey commissioned by National Geographic showed that 48% of Slovenians believe in the existence of UFOs, while 37% do not. According to the survey, this belief is more common among men, with 55% affirming their belief in UFOs, compared to 41% of women. Older respondents were more inclined to believe in the existence of UFOs than younger ones.

    Interestingly, 5% of the surveyed Slovenians claim to have seen a UFO or have had contact with extraterrestrial beings. This percentage increases slightly (8%) among people aged 40 to 49.

    Regarding evidence of extraterrestrial civilizations, 54% of respondents believe such evidence exists, 33% disagree, and 13% are undecided.

    One question in the survey asked whether contact with a UFO could pose a danger or benefit to humanity. A third (32%) believe that contact with UFOs could offer benefits but also pose dangers. 16% believe the contact would be more beneficial than dangerous, and 12% believe the opposite. Interestingly, men and older participants more often believe that humanity would benefit. Among younger respondents (18 to 29 years), more people believe that such contact would pose more danger (19%) than benefits (12%).

    The survey also asked about the government’s policy on UFOs. A whopping 65% believe that the government should collect and disclose information about UFOs. 13% believe the government should collect but not disclose UFO information, a stance more supported by younger people (18 to 39 years). Only 5% believe that the government should not collect data on UFOs.

    The Slovenian perspective on UFOs mirrors a global fascination with this phenomenon and the potential existence of extraterrestrial life. As further investigations into unidentified aerial phenomena unfold, the “truth” that “is out there” may soon be within our grasp.

    Bob Dean Saturn UFO

    Ex-US Army Major Released NASA Footage Of 2000-Mile-Long UFO Near Saturn

    The search for alien life on Saturn’s moon has recently got a boost. Scientists have found out that Enceladus, one of Saturn’s 83 moons, has building blocks of life present under its surface. Similarly, unlocking the mysteries of Titan’s landscape could open doors in the quest to find extraterrestrial beings. Are Saturn and its moon a hideout for an alien civilization? In 2009, Bob Dean, a retired U.S. Army Command Sergeant Major released photos of a huge anomaly (or an alien spacecraft) taken during Voyager’s mission to Saturn in 1980 that showed a giant “luminous source” positioned next to the planet Saturn.

    Robert O. Dean, a.k.a. Bob Dean worked at NATO headquarter from 1963 to 1967. He joined the US Army on April 5, 1960, and also served in combat service in Korea and later in Vietnam. He got retired from the army on October 31, 1976, as a Command Sergeant Major.
    “There are intelligent races out there that are a billion years ahead of us. We find stars out there that probably have planets, those planets can be up to three times as old as our star,” – Bob Dean said at Barcelona Exopolitics Summit.

    On 25 July 2009, he released a set of photographs that he claimed had been in NASA archives for a long time but the agency did not want the world to see them. Mocking NASA acronym calling it “Never A Straight Answer,” Mr. Dean in anguish said that the agency erased 40 rolls of film of the Apollo Program: the flight to the Moon, the flight around the Moon, the landings on the Moon, and others.

    Further in the lecture, he presented a photo from the Voyager program to Saturn in 1980 which is really shocking. Mr. Dean received the photos from his good friend, Dr. Norman Bergrun, a scientist and engineer for NASA’s Ames Research Centre and Lockheed Martin. Dr. Bergrun played a key role in the Voyager missions, the probes that were sent out and tasked with photographing Saturn, its rings, and moons.

    There is a photo shown below from that mission that Dr. Bergrun was able to obtain from the agency of a large unidentified flying object hovering just outside Saturn’s rings. It is huge, approximately the size of Earth, and is published in his book, “Ringmakers of Saturn.

    Mr. Dean said that Dr. Bergrun got frustrated that NASA decided not to tell the public what they had photographed at Saturn, and he wrote the book. Bergrun even had to leave the country in order to publish it.

    In that book, Dr. Bergrun analyzed photographs of Saturn’s rings taken by the Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 spacecraft in 1980 and 1981. He detailed his theory that the rings were formed by giant Electro-Magnetic Vehicles (EVMs), which are possibly being controlled by intelligent beings. He stated that the 7000-mile-long elliptical ships are currently orbiting Saturn within the rings and emitting visible exhaust. Later, analysis by Bergrun and others suggested the same or similar ships are in orbit around the Sun, Jupiter and Uranus.

    Dr. Bergrun said: “What I found out is, these things inhabit Saturn, that’s where I first discovered them, and they’re proliferating. You can find them around Uranus and Jupiter. Wherever you see some rings, that’s where I see the aircraft, I call them a ring maker. I say that it is electromagnetic because I can identify streamline patterns with respect to it that I knew were what we called ‘potential lines’ and that says it was electrical.”

    According to Mr. Dean, the object in the photo (as shown above) is larger than Earth’s moon, moving all around apparently under intelligent control in the rings of Saturn. He further said: “If you can imagine the kind of a technology that is capable of constructing something larger than our moon, that’s artificial, that moves around wherever it wishes to go that has probably got several thousand guys inside. That is shocking to some people.”

    There is another photograph of the object (circular in shape), again larger than our moon, moving throughout the rings of Saturn and among its moons. “You know, there has to be intelligence aboard,” Mr. Dean said. The object is claimed to be 2000 miles long with 400 miles in diameter.

    “I think the rings are probably rich in nutrients, in minerals probably, and an incredibly advanced civilization I think would work out some system of mining those rings for all the minerals up there and utilizing them because space is filled with wealth; energies of all kinds. They never have to dig another hole in the ground like we do down here. Space is filled with energy.

    This is 2000 miles long and here on this end, there seems to be something like an exhaust or a flare of energy of some kind. It’s probably the result of engines of some type inside this thing; but, whatever it’s doing, it’s there, and it’s a recognition and representation of an advanced intelligence.”

    In his 41 years of federal service to the United States, Mr. Dean heard a lot of bizarre things, but the thing that the human race is a hybrid race stunned him. He said: “I’ve learned that we are not merely alone; we have never been alone. We have had an intimate interrelationship with advanced extraterrestrial intelligence from the beginning of our history. And let me tell you that that intimate interrelationship is still going on.”

    NASA unreleased images?

    This image (shown above) comes from the Apollo 12 mission, Apollo Systems 12, roll number 50, negative number 7348. A mysterious object was sighted by Apollo astronauts as they were orbiting the moon.

    The image seen below was taken by Astronaut Neil Armstrong. While the astronauts were looking out of the window of their little craft, this cigar-shaped object flew by.

    The next image, according to Mr. Dean, shows a mysterious disc-shaped object with several hundred feet in diameter. It was snapped while the astronauts were on their way to the surface of the moon.

    The next two images were taken by Apollo Astronauts when they were overflying the so-called Lansberg crater. According to Mr. Dean, “The astronauts in orbit above the Moon were particularly fascinated by the Lansberg crater. They had been given a special designation to take pictures of Lansberg, because the crater, which they named as the Lansberg, had things going on that were very anomalous. There was construction going on. There were gigantic facilities in the crater up there. So they were specifically delegated and assigned to photograph Lansberg to see if they could figure out what the hell was going on down there. While they were looking at Lansberg, this object happened to express interest in them and flew by. Now this line is an artificial line that was drawn to show you the… it gave the direction that this object was going. This is a good-size object flying past the Apollo Lander.”

    Mr. Dean continued showing evidence gathered by astronauts from the Apollo 13 mission. The below image, as Mr. Dean said, was taken by Apollo 13 astronauts while traveling to the moon when a number of things began happening. Some strange objects were appearing outside the windows of the spacecraft, so the Apollo 13 astronauts grabbed their Hasselblad cameras and started taking pictures of what they encountered.

    Such claims and evidence shared by Mr. Dean come with a price. He received harsh criticism from the skeptics’ side, but most opinions shared by people are in favor of Dean, and the majority believes that he was legit. He died on October 11, 2018, at the age of 89 in Tucson, Arizona.

    Astronauts' Testimonies on UFOs and aliens

    These Brave Astronauts’ Testimonies Leave No Doubt In Aliens & UFOs’ Existence

    NASA as a whole entity has never claimed anything about UFO existence but also never denied it. However, there are a number of space agency employees including astronauts who testified seeing unimaginable things that humans are incapable to perform with today’s technology. When astronauts speak about their encounters with UFOs, they risk everything by coming forward, and as skilled observers and expert pilots, they are not easily deceived or impressed.

    According to NASA, a newly created 16-member team would focus its investigation completely on declassified sightings and other data received from civilian government and commercial sectors. Astrophysicist Adam Frank says this study might not prove that aliens exist but it would bring remarkable progress being made in the scientific search for life on distant planets. Despite this, let us look into the testimonies of these brave astronauts who risked everything to bring their thoughts on the existence of UFOs and aliens.

    1. James McDivitt

    James A. McDivitt, a former commander of the Gemini IV and Apollo 9 missions, passed away in Tucson, Arizona, at the age of 93, on October 13, 2022. McDivitt was chosen for NASA’s second class of astronauts in September 1962.

    In June 1965, he took his first flight into space as the leader of the Gemini IV mission. He was joined by fellow Air Force pilot Ed White for the program’s most daring trip to date. As part of Gemini IV, White became the first American to perform extravehicular activity (EVA), also known as a spacewalk. In addition to the spacewalk, there were claims of something possibly extraterrestrial sighted outside the ship.

    Colonel James A. McDivitt witnessed three UFOs during his Gemini 4 flight in June 1965, which NASA attempted to downplay. He saw an unidentified flying object while flying above Hawaii on the second day of the operation. It “looked like a beer can or a soda can, with something like a pencil on it,” he said. This may remind some of the Navy’s Tic-Tac UFO. Unfortunately, he did not have the opportunity to focus or change the exposure of the photographs.

    McDivitt ruled out the likelihood that the object was the second stage of the Titan rocket that launched the Gemini 4. One of the most commonplace theories he could think of was that it was a man-made satellite. The famed Air Force Condon Committee’s UFO research experts considered this factor. However, they were unable to pinpoint any satellite as the source of the problem.

    Here are two different, brief interviews, courtesy of Eyes on Cinema, in which McDivitt closes his conversation by stating that he believes extraterrestrials exist and that we are not alone.

    “It was during the flight of Gemini 4 Mario in June of 1965. It was a white object… had a long white tube sticking out of it. I tried to take some pictures but because of the way the camera was set and the way the light was shining on the windshield we never really got anything back except a couple beautiful sunspots on the window.”

    “Do you still believe that it was a UFO that you saw in that flight in orbit?” television news reporter Mario Machado asked. McDivitt explained: “Well, it was a UFO… whether or not it was a flight from another planet I don’t really know.”

    “General, are you saying you believe that life exists elsewhere in the universe?” McDivitt replied: “I really do. I think it would be very naive and really super egotistical on our part to believe that we’re the only form of life in this vast Universe in which we live.”

    2. Astronaut Gordon Cooper

    Space pioneer Leroy Gordon Cooper, who died in 2004, believed in the existence of aliens who had been traveling from other habitable places to Earth. Cooper was one of the seven astronauts of Project Mercury, the first human space program to get a man on the Moon before the Soviet Union. He traveled to space as part of the manned mission Mercury-Atlas 9, which took place in 1963. Then, in 1965, he set a new space endurance record by traveling 3.3 million miles aboard Gemini 5 to prove that astronauts could survive in space on a journey to Moon and back to Earth. (Click here to read the full story)

    Cooper said in an interview that he saw a UFO for the first time in his life in the early 1950s, when he was posted at Landstuhl Air Base, West Germany. He said that during that time, Russian MiG-15s often flew over to his base. So, once he was flying at 15,000 meters and saw strange vehicles that flew in formation much higher and faster than their aircraft. He claimed that they were disc-shaped with metallic casing.

    “They were flying quite high how high we couldn’t tell because we couldn’t get anywhere near their altitude but they were either very large craft way up or smaller crafts still well above what we can get.”

    In 1957, when Cooper served as a test pilot at Edwards Air Force Base in California, he saw a flying saucer with a diameter of about 10 meters that hovered nearby and landed on the dried lake. He said: “I had a camera crew filming the installation when they spotted a saucer. They filmed it as it flew overhead, then hovered, extended three legs as landing gear, and slowly came down to land on a dry lake bed.”

    “And they picked up their cameras and started over toward it filming as they went. And when they got in fairly close, it lifted up, put the gear back in the wheel, tipped up and took off at a great rate of speed. and so they came into my office and told me what happened,” Cooper claimed.


    After that, Cooper sent the recordings to Washington and filed a report of the UFO encounter. “After a while, a high-ranking officer said when the film was developed I was to put it in a pouch and send it to Washington and I don’t know whether anyone’s ever seen it since. He did not say anything about me not looking at the film. That’s what I did when it came back from the lab and it was all there just like the camera crew reported.” The saucer was similar to the one he encountered in 1951.

    3. Astronaut Edgar Mitchell

    The legendary incident that happened in 1947 was indeed real, according to moon-walking astronaut Edgar Mitchell. He claimed in his interviews that he had informants that had told him about the inside story of Roswell, but he never disclosed their names.

    “Make no mistake, Roswell happened. I’ve seen secret files which show the government knew about it — but decided not to tell the public,” claimed Edgar Mitchell, Ph.D., Apollo 14 Astronaut.

    In February 1971, after the successful completion of the mission, the Apollo 14 crew returned to Earth. Alan Shepard and Edgar Mitchell became the fifth and sixth astronauts to walk on the moon’s surface. While Shepard chose to live in the glory, Mitchell became the main troublemaker for many years. (Click here to read the full story)

    He publicly accepted the existence of aliens after being on the Moon and stuck to it until his death. He accused the US government of hiding the truth about contact with aliens. Immediately after his return, Mitchell left NASA and immersed himself in studying UFOs, ancient history, and human consciousness.

    According to Mitchell, he once had a confidential conversation with a Navy admiral, who secretly told him that in fact, aliens had established contact with the government back in the early 1940s. They were interested in earthly weapons, primarily the atomic bomb. At the very beginning of the Cold War between the USSR and the USA, aliens often came to Earth because they feared nuclear war and tried to influence the world elites in some way.

    In another interview, Mitchell claimed that his words were distorted by journalists. The admiral did tell him that the government had been aware of the existence of extraterrestrial intelligence since the early 1940s and was covering up authenticated UFO sightings. However, he never spoke of any interference in political affairs. He did not give the names of his high-ranking informant from the Navy, so as not to substitute him.

    Michell, who claims he briefed the highest members of the Pentagon, says the reality that there was an advanced civilization that could penetrate our air defenses at will and that we could not stop them in any way, shape, or form, immediately doomed the Roswell incident to become one of the greatest coverups in history — even TODAY!

    China Has Been Creating Gene-Edited Super Soldiers and Brain-Controlled Military Weapons

    An investigative journalist of an independent news site believes Communist China has been creating super soldiers for a long time now. During a recent episode of “Thrivetime Show,” Epoch Times contributor Nathan Su told host and “ReAwaken America” tour founder Clay Clark that China has been using gene editing and brain-controlled weapons to crush dissent.

    “It’s been happening for a long time. They are trying to create all these super soldiers. It’s just inhumane. Those stories have been there for a long time,” he said. “Americans have to wake up, we have to worry about the lifestyle of our children and grandchildren.”

    Su’s reaction came after Clark played a Fox News report from December 2021, saying “U.S. intelligence shows China is using these advanced technologies to empower its battle forces for worldwide dominion.”

    Clark also cited a news article saying that China-sponsored hackers are spying on U.S. critical infrastructure as per intel alliance Five Eyes and Big Tech firm Microsoft. Chinese hackers are known to spy on Western countries but this operation was said to be one of the largest known cyber espionage campaigns against U.S. critical infrastructure. (Related: “Spy balloons” are part of global Chinese surveillance, US military, and national security officials say.)

    “The United States and international cybersecurity authorities are issuing this joint Cybersecurity Advisory (CSA) to highlight a recently discovered cluster of activity of interest associated with a People’s Republic of China (PRC) state-sponsored cyber actor, also known as ‘Volt Typhoon,’” read a statement released by authorities in the U.S., the U.K., Australia, Canada, and New Zealand.

    According to Microsoft, Volt Typhoon has been active since mid-2021 and has targeted critical infrastructure in Guam, a crucial U.S. military outpost in the Pacific Ocean. “Observed behavior suggests that the threat actor intends to perform espionage and maintain access without being detected for as long as possible,” the tech giant further said.

    For Su, the U.S. would not be able to “live without” China, because the Asian country is the main manufacturer of wars. “We’re still sending billions of dollars to invest in China to help the regime. Mainly, because China is the manufacturer of the war. So, we’re not able to immediately decouple from them, because so much supply chain is controlled by China,” he stated.

    Another point he emphasized is that the U.S. could not stop doing business with the communist nation because the U.S. has “huge corporate inches in China.” “Big corporations like Apple, Nike, and a couple of others, as much as they are American, you can call them Chinese companies. We have a capitalist market,” he said. Clark agreed, saying: “It’s pretty tough to find a basketball shoe not made in China at this point.”

    Elsewhere in the show, Su also noted how dependent the world is on China when it comes to “organ harvesting” and “medical tourism.”

    “The Chinese Communist regime has been killing its prisoners, then taking their organs and selling them to either rich people or high-level government officials or mainly, for a very long period of time, to the foreigners,” he exposed and cited a report back in 2006 by the late David Kilgour, an international human rights lawyer. At the time, Su said, there was a huge storage facility for the harvested organs. The investigative journalist also linked this to the secret “transplant tour” being held in some neighboring countries from 2004 to 2010.

    “If you go to Japan, Taiwan, and South Korea, they actually have a specialized travel agency to arrange that organ transplant tour. You go to China, to arrange your families and they all go there together. In two weeks, they will give you the transplant like livers, hearts, lungs, kidneys, and many others,” he explained.

    Strange UFO-like objects caught near the sun

    Recently NASA solar satellites captured some strange anomalies near the sun. 
    It is often said that these kind objects are just streaks left by cosmic rays or charged particles from space or a camera glitch but what if these objects which are not looking natural, are alien? 
    There is a cosmic cover-up of the highest order, but for how long they can keep the existence of UFOs in space secret from the public, especially if you see massive objects in the vicinity of the sun that clearly show solid-looking structures.

    Unraveling the Mystery Behind UFO Sightings: The Metallic Flying Cube and Costa Rica Spheres

    UFO sightings South America

    In an era where the pursuit of the unknown pushes the limits of human curiosity, the allure of (UFOs) grows stronger. Whether they’re fueling the narratives of Hollywood movies or filling the pages of science fiction novels, UFO sightings remain at the center of several debates and theories. This article focuses on two captivating phenomena: the mysterious metallic flying cube and the enigmatic Costa Rica spheres, phenomena that have long fascinated UFO enthusiasts and skeptics alike.

    The Metallic Flying Cube: A Spectacular Sight in the Sky

    First off, let’s embark on a journey into the world of the metallic flying cube, a sight that has intrigued UFO observers around the world. This story begins with a curious sighting of a metallic cube, seen hovering over the Texas skies in 2018. Witnessed by two distinct pilots, this peculiar object was seen hurtling at high speed above the clouds, sparking widespread fascination and speculation.

    What was it that made this UFO sighting so intriguing? For starters, the structure of the object itself. Unlike the classic saucer-shaped UFOs, the metallic cube was a sight to behold with its distinctive shape and form. It was described as a metallic object with a shimmering surface, a square shape, and a mid-air suspension that defied the laws of gravity. Its unexpected presence in the airspace raised many questions about its origin and intent.

    Experts and enthusiasts have debated various theories about this metallic cube. From cutting-edge military technology to extraterrestrial spacecraft, the theories are as diverse as they are intriguing. However, as of now, the metallic flying cube remains a mystery, further fuelling the discourse around UFO sightings.

    The Costa Rica Spheres: A UFO Mystery Carved in Stone

    Our journey into the intriguing world of UFO sightings brings us to Costa Rica, home to an intriguing collection of prehistoric stone spheres. Discovered in the 1930s by the United Fruit Company while clearing the jungle for a banana plantation, these near-perfect spherical stones sparked instant curiosity.

    The Costa Rica spheres, also known as “Las Bolas,” vary in size, with the largest one measuring up to nine feet in diameter and weighing about 16 tons. They have been dated back to the Decis culture, which flourished between AD 700 and 1500. Yet, the purpose and method of their construction remain shrouded in mystery, causing many to speculate about possible extraterrestrial involvement.

    These spheres are remarkable due to their near-perfect roundness – a feat that would have required precise engineering and a high level of craftsmanship, especially if carved by hand. The question of how an ancient civilization achieved such a monumental task without the help of modern technology has given rise to numerous theories. Some suggest the spheres may have been astronomical instruments, while others posit they might have been symbols of power or status.

    Both the metallic flying cube and the Costa Rica spheres are fascinating examples of unexplained phenomena that spark our curiosity and challenge our understanding of the world. Whether they’re UFOs from distant galaxies or relics of an ancient civilization, they remind us of the countless mysteries waiting to be solved in the vast expanse of the universe.

    While the truth behind these UFO sightings remains elusive, their stories continue to captivate our imaginations and fuel our quest for knowledge. As we continue to search for answers, one thing is for certain: the enduring allure of these mysteries makes the study of UFO sightings an endlessly fascinating journey.

    CIA pilot John Lear UFO interview

    Ex-CIA Pilot Claimed To Receive 25 Secret CIA Memos About Aliens On Earth

    John Lear, a former CIA pilot, passed away on March 29, 2022, leaving behind a legacy in the world of aviation and conspiracy theories. He was widely known for his claims about the unidentified aerial phenomenon and Area 51, but also for a lifetime of daring exploits in everything that could fly. He was the son of American inventor Bill Lear, who created the Lear jet and invented the 8-Track tape system.

    Determined to carve out his own path, Lear delved into aviation, becoming an accomplished pilot at a young age, setting multiple world records in various planes. Despite his accomplishments, his daredevil lifestyle resulted in serious injuries from plane crashes that he should not have survived.

    During the Vietnam era, Lear flew cargo planes for the CIA and continued to seek out danger by flying in and out of other hotspots. He had numerous contacts in the aerospace industry and became interested in secret planes and projects.

    In the 1980s, Lear and a few friends began investigating obscure bases in the Nevada desert, which later became famous. His claims about UFOs and Area 51 and his lifetime of daredevil exploits in the skies will forever be remembered.

    Lear’s appearance in “On the Record,” which aired on January 28, 1988, on KLAS TV in Las Vegas, startled the UFO discussion and told investigative journalist George Knapp that the government even housed aliens at two U.S. sites. Lear said the government was engaged in a program to gradually inform the public of encounters that had already happened.

    According to Lear, there are at least 70 different species of aliens. He specifically mentioned the existence of “little green men” as well as “little grey ones,” who are about 4 and a half feet tall. He also talked about the existence of “Nordics,” which are similar in appearance to humans, but are taller and have blond hair and blue eyes. He stated that one of those species was recovered from a crash and was stored on ice.

    Lear claimed that there are good and bad aliens and they have all kinds of ways to interact with humans. “And what are some of the reasons? Why would they be here?” Knapp asked. Lear replied: “Genetic experiments.” He further said that “movies such as E.T., Close Encounters of the Third Kind were carefully guided by representatives from MJ-12, who is this organization that is in charge of the coverup, in order to get us ready for the release of the information that there are indeed, aliens.”

    Lear believed that everything started with the Roswell crash in 1947. He claimed that in September 1945, President Truman established MJ-12, and the purpose of that was to study the saucers and cover up the existence of UFOs. He told Knapp that four alien bodies were recovered from a crash and were autopsied by Dr. Detlev Bronk.

    They were named “EBEs” (Extraterrestrial Biological Entities) and three live EBEs were captured in different crashes. EBE1 lived with an Air Force Colonel between 1949 and 1952. The EBEs were kept in an electromagnetic facility called a YY-2, which was designed by Dr. Eric Wang who worked under Dr. Kissinger and was involved in the coverup of the incident since the beginning.

    Lear said: “The reason they have to create an electromagnetic facility is the fact that the EBEs are so advanced, they’re there at least a half a billion years advanced from us, and probably more… And they can also disappear. But they can’t move by thought through an electromagnetic facility, so they built this facility. There was two, one in Los Alamos and one either Edwards (AFB) or at the Test Site.”

    Lear discussed the existence of extraterrestrial beings at Groom Lake, Nevada, also known as Area 51. He stated that there was still a living extraterrestrial biological entity (EBE) known as EBE3 and that there was a tape of an interview with this being. However, Lear did not see the tape and was unaware of what language was used in the interviewers. He also mentioned that he had been given 25 secret CIA memos on his trip to gather information, and one of the memos mentioned that EBE3 wanted to see the ocean and that arrangements needed to be made or the EBE would “disappear again.”

    Knapp asked if these beings can exist among us and if they need a special environment. Lear stated that they have a special environment, special air, and can only last about 20 minutes in Earth’s air.

    Lear also claimed that the grey EBEs are the ones that are most commonly seen and that there are different motives for their presence on Earth. He suggested that a deal was made with them, as they are trying to regenerate their own race. This is because their digestive system is atrophied and they could no longer eat through their mouths. Instead, they obtain hormones and enzymes from cattle and spread it on their skin for nutrients, excreting the waste back to their skin.

    On March 29, 1989, Lear and his friends including Bob Lazar recorded a video of the object, a glowing disc that rose from a facility on the outskirts of Area 51 that officially did not exist. Ironically, March 29 was the same date Lear died at his Las Vegas home, though many years later. (Source)

    During the interview, Lear discussed his knowledge of two incidents involving UFOs. The first incident occurred in July 1987, when an enormous UFO is said to have followed a cargo plane over Anchorage, Alaska. The second incident took place in 1975, where UFOs were reportedly seen hovering over Strategic Air Command bases.

    Knapp: You’ve said before you thought that a lot of their intentions were hostile and you’ve mentioned before that a lot of the sightings around the military bases. Why don’t we see them here? Las Vegas, we’ve got a lot of military bases here.

    Lear: Well, the in fact there have been a lot of a lot of reports of UFOs in around Las Vegas, not specifically over the Air Force bases. We have the Test Site and of course, we don’t know what’s going on there, and we have Nellis Air Force Base. But there have not really been a lot of sightings over there. The main Air Force sightings were in 1975. And the UFOs descended on every Strategic Air Command base guarding the perimeter of the northern United States. They hovered over the nuclear weapons storage area and they stayed there with impunity for up to two and three hours over a period of three days.

    “The problem is not only just the fact that there are five and as many as 10 different civilizations visiting us. Apparently, and this is from the research that I’ve done, at least 90% of them are hostile. And when I say hostile, if not hostile, they have a completely different set of morals than we do,” he added.

    The following statement by the ex-CIA pilot is also worth noting: “The moon is an artificial body that was dragged to our planet, as a result of which an ice age broke out on Earth that killed all living things.” In fact, the circumstances of the appearance of the moon in outer space are not exactly known, and no one has seen the back of the moon.

    Lear also explained in his interview how Moon had been created in Jupiter and brought to Earth’s orbit about 15,000 years ago, which was nearly around the last Ice Age. Besides, he said that the Greys are on the moon as well, but mainly remain underground within huge laboratories.

    John Lear claimed that NASA sent astronauts to Mars in 1966, and that the astronauts had undergone extensive preparation for the mission, including taking drugs to adapt to the Martian climate. He also alleged that those astronauts were able to breathe the thin atmosphere on Mars, allowing for longer missions on the planet.

    Lear mentioned that there are several notable figures from various fields, such as military, espionage, and aeronautics who corroborated these claims, including Colonel Philip Corso, David Wilcock, Glen Steckling, Henry Deacon, Barr Digregorio and Gilbert Levin, and they are not considered as madmen but are the key figures in space research.

    US military has been observing ‘metallic orbs’ making extraordinary ‘maneuvers’

    BY MARIK VON RENNENKAMPFF, OPINION CONTRIBUTOR 

    At a historic NASA briefing on UFOs — “unidentified anomalous phenomena” (UAP) in government parlance — a key Defense Department official made a striking disclosure. Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick, director of a new UAP analysis office, stated that U.S. military personnel are observing “metallic orbs” “all over the world.”

    An image, along with two brief videos of such objects are now publicly available. 

    According to Kirkpatrick, spherical objects account for the largest proportion — nearly half — of all UAP reports received by his office. Critically, some of these objects are capable of “very interesting apparent maneuvers.” 

    To be sure, rigorous scientific analysis may ultimately identify a prosaic explanation for such observations. In the meantime, however, such “metallic orbs” are prima facie evidence of extraordinary technology. After all, how would spheres, lacking wings or apparent forms of propulsion, execute “maneuvers” of any kind? 

    In his presentation, Kirkpatrick also described the UAP characteristics most frequently received by his office. This range of attributes, in short, amounts to a UAP profile that Kirkpatrick’s staff is “out hunting for.”

    Intriguingly, this profile includes small (3 to 13 feet in diameter) “spherical” objects capable of flight at a range of velocities, from “stationary” to twice the speed of sound, despite a perplexing absence of “thermal exhaust” such as heat from an engine. Of particular note, as Kirkpatrick made clear, some of these highly anomalous characteristics are observed via multiple sensors

    Former U.S. Navy fighter pilot Lt. Ryan Graves has described daily encounters with unidentified objects exhibiting characteristics strikingly similar to those described by Kirkpatrick. While training off the U.S. east coast in 2014-15, Graves and at least 50-60 fellow naval aviators observed unknown objects, frequently via multiple sensors, that remained stationary over the ground even in hurricane-force winds, or traveled at speeds faster than sound.

    Although the aircrew rarely observed the objects visually, a harrowing near-midair collision marked the first time a naval aviator in Graves’s squadron had observed one of the objects at close range. According to the pilot, the object appeared as a dark-colored cube inside of a clear sphere. As if to confirm, Kirkpatrick noted at the NASA event that “translucent” spheres are among the most commonly reported UAP characteristics. 

    Similarly, a hazard report from the previous day describes two objects — both confirmed via radar and infrared sensors — hovering in place. However, in this incident, two other UAP fly past the stationary objects “at a high speed.” Graves’s exasperated squadron commander punctuates the report by stating that “it is only a matter of time before this results in a midair” collision.

    Less than a month earlier, a hazard report filed in the same area by a different squadron describes an aircrew encountering “a small metallic object” “approximately the size of a suitcase,” matching, once again, the commonly-reported characteristics described by Kirkpatrick.

    The squadron commander, similarly incensed by the dire flight safety risk posed by the frequent UAP encounters, wrote that “it may only be a matter of time before one of our F/A-18 aircraft has a mid-air collision.” 

    While he had less flexibility to investigate after he deployed, Graves recalls observing similar anomalous radar contacts as his squadron moved to the Mediterranean Sea and the Persian Gulf. This is consistent with Kirkpatrick’s statement that such UAP are observed “all over the world.” 

    A few years later, a test pilot flying in a nearby evaluation range told Graves of an encounter with one of the commonly reported objects. According to Graves, a spherical UAP was “just riding along with him,” about 30 feet from the aircraft, before it “zipped off.” A declassified report matching the general details of the incident describes a test pilot’s encounter with a “sphere.”

    More recently, one of Graves’s former student pilots, along with a senior officer, observed one of the spheres. As Graves’s former student told him, “[The object] looked exactly like what you said, [a] cube in a sphere. They’re still here.” 

    Importantly, the spheres are associated with one of the best-known UAP encounters.

    The 2015 “Gimbal” video is arguably the most recognizable publicly available UAP footage. Recorded at the end of a complex pre-deployment training mission, Graves recalls that the “Gimbal” UAP flew in a loose formation with a “fleet” of four to six objects which, based on their perplexing radar signatures, resembled the objects observed daily by aviators off the East Coast.

    During the post-mission debrief, a thorough review of the sensor data from the “Gimbal” incident “left a crowd of fascinated intelligence officers and aircrew” perplexed enough to summon the highest ranking officer aboard the aircraft carrier. The admiral, exasperated by the frequent UAP incursions into the carrier’s airspace, and the “Gimbal” incident in particular, reported the incident to the Office of Naval Intelligence. 

    Moreover, during the recent briefing by NASA’s Independent Study Team, a panel member mathematically analyzed the “GoFast” UAP video. Such open, transparent academic engagement with noteworthy UAP incidents is a much-welcome development.

    Importantly, by virtue of its connection to the “Gimbal” incident, the “GoFast” video has a plausible link to the anomalous spherical UAP observed frequently by naval aviators. 

    “GoFast” was recorded hundreds of miles offshore, just 10 minutes prior to the “Gimbal” incident, and by the same aircrew. While the NASA study team member who analyzed the video employed basic trigonometry to conclude that the cold, sphere-like “GoFast” object was traveling relatively slowly (about 40 miles per hour), citizen scientists — UFO skeptics and “agnostics” alike — have created three-dimensional models that recreate the effect of the strong winds that evening.

    When accounting for wind, which can alter such geometrical reconstructions significantly, current analyses show that the “GoFast” object must travel far faster, at approximately 115 (versus 40) miles per hour. Moreover, the orb-like “GoFast” UAP would potentially move even more rapidly if a key figure pertaining to range is incorrect, as current and former aviators deem likely.

    Hopefully, by drawing on NASA’s deep scientific expertise, the mystery of the “metallic orbs” observed globally can be resolved satisfactorily.

    Researchers from the SETI Institute have conducted the first in-depth search for a beacon at the center of our galaxy.

    Astronomers are Searching for a Galaxy-Wide Transmitter Beacon at the Center of the Milky Way

    It has been over sixty years since the first Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) survey occurred. This was Project Ozma, a survey led by Dr. Frank Drake (who devised the Drake Equation) that used the National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO) in Green Bank, West Virginia, to listen for radio transmissions from Epsilon Eridani and Tau Ceti. While the search revealed nothing of interest, it paved the way for decades of research, theory, and attempts to find evidence of technological activity (aka. “technosignatures”).

    The search continues today, with researchers using next-generation instruments and analytical methods to find the “needle in the cosmic haystack.” This is the purpose behind Breakthrough Listen Investigation for Periodic Spectral Signals (BLIPSS), a collaborative SETI project led by Cornell graduate student Akshay Suresh to look for technosignatures at the center of the Milky Way. In a recent paper, Suresh and his team shared their initial findings, which were made possible thanks to data obtained by the Greenbank Observatory and a proprietary algorithm they developed.

    Suresh is a Ph.D. candidate at the Cornell Center for Astrophysics and Planetary Science who leads the BLIPPS campaign, a collaboration between Cornell University, the SETI Institute, and Breakthrough Listen. He and his colleagues were joined by astrophysicists from the Cahill Center for Astronomy and Astrophysics, the Institute for Mathematics, Astrophysics, and Particle Physics (IMAPP), the Institute of Space Sciences and Astronomy, and the International Centre for Radio Astronomy Research (ICRAR). Their paper, “A 4–8 GHz Galactic Center Search for Periodic Technosignatures,” appeared on May 30th in The Astronomical Journal.

    To date, all SETI surveys have been dedicated to looking for evidence of artificial radio transmissions. The accepted theory is that radio signatures would fall into one of two categories: narrowband intentional beacon emissions and broadband radiation leakage from radio transmitters. Of the two, the spectrotemporal characteristics (frequency over time) of radiation leakage are much harder to speculate about and likely to be weaker. For this reason, most modern SETI efforts have focused on looking for wideband searches for narrowband beacons from planetary systems or neighboring galaxies.

    In particular, a rotating beacon near Galactic Center (GC) is considered a promising technosignature to SETI researchers. For an advanced species, such a beacon would provide a means for communicating with the entire galaxy without the need for direct contact. For species dying to know if they are alone in the Universe but not so eager as to advertise their location, a beacon is doubly attractive because it would also allow some anonymity to be maintained. As Suresh told Universe Today via email:

    From a game theory perspective, the core of the Milky Way is a likely “Schelling point” by which different alien worlds may establish communication without prior contact. For instance, intelligent aliens may choose to transmit beacons toward the center of the Milky Way to reach a maximum number of targets. Equivalently, such aliens may also transmit directly away from the center of the Milky Way, knowing that societies like ours will look towards the core of the galaxy.

    For their search, the team employed a fast folding algorithm (FFA), an open-source machine learning software designed to detect periodic events within time series data. They first tested this algorithm on known pulsars, successfully detecting the expected periodic emissions. They then consulted datasets obtained by the 100-meter Green Bank Telescope (GBT) – part of the Breakthrough Listen’s network – on a region at the center of the Milky Way during a 4.5-hour observing period. This region measures 50 light-years in diameter and encompasses over half a million stars.

    Unlike pulsars, which emit signals across a broad range of radio frequencies, BLIPSS narrowed its search to look for regularly-spaced sequences of pulses (11 to 100 seconds apart) across a signal range of a few kilohertz – similar to radar communications. “Unfortunately, our searches did not reveal any pulsating signals that may be of extraterrestrial origin,” said Suresh. “Our results suggest that from the nearly 600,000 stars surveyed at the center of our galaxy, beacons with repetition rates between 11 to 100 seconds were either off or too faint to be detected during our observations.”

    While their search did not turn up any clear indications of periodic radio signals, it accomplished several firsts. Before BLISS, radio SETI was primarily dedicated to looking for continuous signals, whereas a galactic beacon would rely on pulsed radio bursts. The search conducted by Suresh and his colleagues is the first-ever comprehensive, in-depth search for these signals. It is also the first time that FFA algorithms have been used to mine data for possible indications of pulsed signals.

    In addition, the methodology employed by Suresh and his colleagues was novel in its combination of narrow bandwidths with periodic patterns that could be technosignatures. And by searching for timed sequences in a specific frequency range, this unprecedented survey has established constraints that future studies can build on. Said Suresh:

    Constraints from our study help fine-tune future surveys by excluding parameter spaces (e.g., pulse repetition rate, pulse bandwidth, and brightness) and regions of the sky from which we have a non-detection of pulsating extraterrestrial signals of artificial origin. We hope to expand our searches for pulsating signals from the Milky Way and beyond using multiple radio telescopes distributed across the globe. In doing so, we aspire to mine vast unexplored parameter spaces of pulsating signals.

    Extraterrestrial Enigma: Why 92% of UFO Sightings Occur in the United States

    USA UFO sightings

    Have you ever gazed up at the night sky and wondered if we’re truly alone in the universe? You’re not the only one. Each year, thousands of individuals across the globe report witnessing unexplainable phenomena in the heavens, sparking widespread interest and curiosity. However, one nation stands out in this cosmic conundrum: the United States, home to a staggering 92% of all reported UFO sightings.

    Why is this the case? What makes the U.S. such a hotbed for these celestial mysteries? Let’s take a closer look at the phenomenon of UFO sightings and uncover the facts that have propelled America to the forefront of extraterrestrial encounters.

    First, let’s delve into the data. Based on an extensive survey by BonusFinder.com, there have been 126,094 UFO sightings reported in the U.S since record-keeping began. Canada comes a distant second, with 5,696 reported sightings, while the United Kingdom ranks third with 3,146 sightings. But what makes these “Unidentified Flying Objects” so fascinating? They defy our understanding of physics, often appearing as strangely-shaped lights performing extraordinary maneuvers in the sky.

    It’s intriguing to note the disparity in the duration of these sightings between the U.S. and its northern neighbor, Canada. While UFO incidents are more prevalent in the U.S, they tend to linger longer in Canada, with the average sighting lasting over five hours.

    The U.S., however, has its own share of long-lasting UFO encounters. In Pennsylvania, the sixth highest state for UFO sightings, these mysterious objects tend to remain visible for just under 40 minutes per visit, significantly longer than any other state.

    Within the U.S, California leads the pack, boasting 15,480 reported UFO sightings, followed by Florida (7,835), Washington (6,889), Texas (5,814), and New York (5,627). This geographical diversity adds another layer of intrigue to the enigma of UFO sightings, making it a truly national phenomenon.

    But it’s not just the public reporting these sightings. A recent survey reveals that almost one-fifth of U.S. academics have encountered Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAPs), the official term now widely used instead of UFOs. This suggests that the phenomenon is being taken increasingly seriously, with many academics expressing interest in conducting research into UAPs.

    Despite being enshrouded in mystery, the study of UFO sightings is gradually moving from the fringe into mainstream scientific discourse, partly due to revelations about military UFO sightings and increasing engagement from the government on the subject.

    As we continue to explore the depths of our universe, the enigma of UFO sightings in the U.S. remains a captivating topic. It’s a field of study that invites us to question, to ponder, and perhaps, one day, to understand. So, the next time you find yourself staring up at the night sky, keep your eyes peeled. You never know what you might see.

    Steve Bassett

    Steve Bassett, an advocate for the extraterrestrial phenomenon disclosure movement, has been at the forefront of unraveling the captivating enigma of UFO sightings. His relentless pursuit for answers and transparency has shone a new light on our understanding of these mysterious events, pushing the boundaries of our collective knowledge.

    Steve Bassett: A Trailblazer in Understanding UFO Sightings

    Over the decades, Bassett has diligently worked to peel back the layers of secrecy surrounding UFO sightings. His commitment to uncovering the truth has cast him into the limelight as a significant figure in the world of extraterrestrial phenomena. Steve’s approach to these unexplained events extends beyond mere speculation, venturing into the realms of ancient civilizations, nuclear technology, crop circles, and unexplained animal mutilations.

    The Ancient Connection

    Bassett’s inquiries into UFO sightings transcend the boundaries of time, delving into what seems to be ancient contact with extraterrestrial beings. What if our ancestors had encounters of their own, and their accounts woven into the fabric of their culture and art are evidence of early UFO sightings? Steve’s quest to understand our past might hold the key to comprehending the present.

    Deciphering the Nuclear Interest

    Of all the mysteries Bassett has pursued, one of the most intriguing is the purported connection between UFO sightings and our own nuclear technology. With numerous military reports of UFOs tampering with nuclear weapons, Bassett pushes us to consider – why is there an extraterrestrial interest in our nuclear capabilities?

    Crop Circles and Cattle Mutilations: More Than Mere Anomalies?

    Coupled with UFO sightings, intricate crop circles and unexplained cattle mutilations have often been reported. While skeptics often dismiss these occurrences as natural or human-made, Bassett urges us to consider their intricacy, precision, and the possible extraterrestrial connection. What messages might these enigmatic phenomena be attempting to convey?

    Bassett’s Push for Disclosure and Transparency

    In his tireless quest for transparency, Bassett challenges the boundaries between national security and public knowledge. His confidence in the government’s awareness of non-human intelligence pushes us to question whether it’s time for public disclosure or to seek our own evidence independently.

    The Future Beckons: A New Era of UFO Sightings

    Under Bassett’s guidance, our understanding of UFO sightings continues to evolve. He fosters an atmosphere of open inquiry and critical thought, encouraging us to question, investigate, and seek out the truth for ourselves. As we embark on this journey with him, one can only wonder what discoveries lie on the horizon.

    UFO Evidence Seized by CIA

    When we think of UFO sightings, our minds often picture grainy images and incredulous claims. However, one event that continues to baffle both skeptics and believers alike took place in the freezing skies above Alaska in November 1986, an incident that remains one of the most well-documented UFO sightings to date.

    On November 17th, 1986, Japan Airlines flight 1628 was making its regular cargo flight from Paris, France to Narita International Airport near Tokyo. As the Boeing 747 was approaching Anchorage, Captain Kenju Terauchi, a seasoned pilot with more than 10,000 hours of flight time, noticed two enigmatic lights that seemed to dance in the darkened skies outside his cockpit window.

    Despite his vast experience, Captain Terauchi was confronted with a sight that both confounded and alarmed him. These were not mere atmospheric phenomena; they were mysterious oval-shaped objects maneuvering in an intelligent manner, seemingly pacing the jetliner.

    When these two unidentified objects suddenly vanished, they were replaced by another entity that was so enormous it made the 747 look like a speck in comparison. Captain Terauchi described it as a “gigantic spaceship,” a behemoth that was potentially the size of two aircraft carriers. The visual evidence, combined with the palpable fear in the crew’s voices, added an eeriness to this encounter.

    This chilling episode didn’t go unnoticed by ground control. Anchorage Air Traffic Control, and even NORAD, the North American Aerospace Defense Command, confirmed that their radar picked up a sizeable unidentified object accompanying Flight 1628. Despite attempts to evade the entity, it clung on, seemingly undeterred by altitude changes or evasive maneuvers.

    Captain Terauchi’s public disclosure of the event, proclaiming the crafts of extraterrestrial origin, stirred a significant media frenzy. In the wake of these revelations, official investigations were launched, bringing together experts from FAA, FBI, CIA, and even representatives from President Reagan’s White House. However, the meeting ended with an unsettling statement from one of the CIA agents: This meeting never happened.

    Despite the controversy, one undeniable fact remains – UFO sightings are not as rare as one might think. Countless pilots, who spend a majority of their lives in the sky, have reported seeing inexplicable phenomena. Yet, they often choose silence over ridicule and disbelief.

    This Alaskan encounter offers an intriguing addition to the annals of UFO sightings, providing not just eyewitness testimony but also solid corroborating evidence from radar and communication records. Whether you’re a skeptic or a believer, one thing is certain – our skies hold mysteries that are yet to be explained.

    Whether these UFO sightings indeed point to an extraterrestrial presence in our skies or they are a manifestation of advanced terrestrial technology yet unknown to us, we can’t ignore the mounting evidence. As we continue to peer into the vast cosmos, encounters like these will keep fueling our curiosity and quest for answers, reminding us that we might not be alone in this grand universe.

    Remember, when it comes to UFO sightings, the truth is out there, and it’s closer than you think.

    The Oldest Living Tree on Earth is Older Than the Egyptian Pyramids

    Visitors from around the world flock to visit the famed 4,500-year-old Great Pyramid of Giza , now remembered as one of the seven wonders of the ancient world . But hidden high in California’s White Mountains is an unassuming natural wonder which out-dates the Giza Pyramid by hundreds of years.

    A Bristlecone Pine tree ( Pinus longaeva ) known as Methuselah holds the Guinness World Record as the oldest named individual tree on Earth. At over 4,850 years old, its age was determined through core samples. To put its age into proportion, by the time of the Trojan War around 1200 BC, Methuselah would have been over 1,600 years old! The name pays homage to the biblical figure Methuselah, the oldest person of all time (969 years to be precise) according to Judeo-Christian tradition.

    With their distinctive gnarled appearance, molded over (literally) thousands of years, Bristlecone Pines have survived unforgiving landscapes and temperatures. There’s something ironic in the fact that the oldest living tree is actually located in the so-called New World .

    Methuselah’s discovery in the 1950s attracted tourists to the area, causing damage over time. Another Bristlecone Pine, nicknamed Prometheus, was inadvertently cut down when a researcher tried to recover his tree corer from its trunk. Smithsonian Magazine revealed he only realized what he’d done after reviewing the sample and discovering it had been over 5,000 years old. This tragic event inspired the authorities to create the Great Basin National Park to protect the millennial Bristlecone Pines. As a result, the true location of Methuselah is now classified.

    But, what’s the secret to its survival? Resilient to extreme conditions, its roots have adapted to nourish only certain branches, limiting the impact when they die. The Bristlecone Pine is also a slow-grower (one-hundredth of an inch a year) while its needles live for over 30 years, helping the tree conserve energy.

    Over the years, Methuselah has faced some stiff competition. In 2022, Science reported that the Jonathan Barichivich concluded that a Patagonian cypress ( Fitzroya cupressoides ) in Chile, known as the Gran Abuelo (great grandfather) was actually over 500 years older than Methuselah. Alternatively, a clonal forest of Populus tremuloides in Utah, known as Pando, could be as old as 14,000 years. The enormous forest—spanning 80 football fields according to National Geographic —is a collection of genetically identical stems which sprang from one single seed.

    Studying and protecting these ancient trees and their tree rings can provide invaluable information about the climate throughout ancient history, which in turn can provide clues for protecting against the effects of climate change. Dubbed “faithful chroniclers of the world’s weather patterns,” we have a lot to learn from ancestral trees, be they South American conifers or weathered Californian pines.

    Edgar Mitchell UFO

    Moon Trip Enforced NASA Astronaut Edgar Mitchell to Believe In UFOs & Aliens, Why?

    There is a long list of astronauts who claimed to have seen strange anomalies while being in outer space and strongly supported UFO phenomena. After returning from Moon, former NASA astronaut Edgar Mitchell experienced an epiphany that changed his thoughts about the origin of life on Earth and accused the government of hiding the truth.

    In February 1971, after the successful completion of the mission, the Apollo 14 crew returned to Earth. Alan Shepard and Edgar Mitchell became the fifth and sixth astronauts to walk on the moon’s surface. While Shepard chose to live in the glory, Mitchell became the main troublemaker for many years.

    He publicly accepted the existence of aliens after being on the Moon and stuck to it until his death. He accused the US government of hiding the truth about contact with aliens. Immediately after his return, Mitchell left NASA and immersed himself in studying UFOs, ancient history, and human consciousness.

    Later, he explained that during his time in space, he experienced an incomparable mystical experience, and tried to find the answer to the question of what it was in the ancient texts. Eventually, he managed to find a term in Sanskrit to describe his experience, samadhi. Hindus consider it a special state of enlightened and clear consciousness, and Buddhists consider it the last step on the path to nirvana.

    “The experience in space was so powerful that when I got back to Earth I started digging into various literatures to try to understand what had happened. I found nothing in science literature but eventually discovered it in the Sanskrit of ancient India. The descriptions of samadhi, Savikalpa samadhi, were exactly what I felt: it is described as seeing things in their separateness, but experiencing them viscerally as a unity, as oneness, accompanied by ecstasy,” Mitchell said.

    Mitchell described it as a feeling of complete dissolution in the infinite universe, accompanied by ecstasy, as well as a clear understanding of the absolute unity of man and the cosmos, which seemed to him an incredibly ancient and intelligent self-regulating system.

    In general, Mitchell returned from the Moon as a completely different person. He moved to California, where he co-founded the Institute of Noetic Sciences. This non-profit organization was engaged in research, which was skeptical of mainstream science. The institute conducted experiments with yoga, meditation, extrasensory perception, telepathy, telekinesis, etc.

    There were rumors about the institute in the 70s and 80s that it was part of the secret Stargate Project that was funded by US military intelligence to study various parapsychological phenomena. Allegedly, Mitchell, taking advantage of the fact that the doors of the highest offices were open to him, almost personally lobbied for the inclusion of his organization in the project. However, in any case, the Stargate was closed due to the lack of any results that were of even potential interest to the army.

    But Mitchell’s greatest fame was brought by his scandalous statements about the existence of aliens. He was perhaps the most famous figure who publicly shared such views, so journalists were very willing to interview him, and ufologists and supporters of various conspiracy theories around the world literally idolized the former astronaut and invariably referred to his interviews in their books.

    Apollo 14

    For example, he claimed that the 1947 Roswell crash incident was a true story. But on the official note, it was the weather balloon crash and video footage of the autopsy of humanoids, allegedly secretly made by army operators, was determined to be fake.

    However, Mitchell grew up in the small town of Artesia, a few miles from the very Roswell airbase where the crash allegedly occurred. The astronaut claimed that many of his neighbors, acquaintances, and friends worked at this base, and what he heard from them is enough for him to consider the Roswell incident a real UFO crash. Mitchell did not disclose the names of his informants, referring to the fact that they all signed a non-disclosure agreement and he did not want them to have problems.

    Mitchell claimed that he used all his connections to find out anything about the UFO phenomenon that had occupied him since the early 70s, and eventually, he found people at the highest rank who shared information with him.

    According to Mitchell, he once had a confidential conversation with a Navy admiral, who secretly told him that in fact, the aliens had established contact with the government back in the early 1940s. They were interested in earthly weapons, primarily the atomic bomb. At the very beginning of the Cold War between the USSR and the USA, aliens often came to Earth because they feared nuclear war and tried to influence the world elites in some way.

    In another interview, Mitchell claimed that his words were distorted by journalists. The admiral did tell him that the government had been aware of the existence of extraterrestrial intelligence since the early 1940s and was covering up authenticated UFO sightings. However, he never spoke of any interference in political affairs. He did not give the names of his high-ranking informant from the Navy, so as not to substitute him.

    In 2016, Wikileaks revealed thousands of emails that were allegedly linked to Hillary Clinton’s campaign chairman John Podesta. The emails unfolded secret information shared with Podesta about UFOs and ETs.

    In 2015, Podesta received emails from Mitchell that expressed his concern about the weaponization of space and its impact on the ETI (extraterrestrial intelligence). Despite the fact that aliens might be violent as shown in the various sci-fi, the notable astronaut called them nonviolent in his email.

    In January 2015, he sent an email to Podesta, asking him to have an urgent meeting to discuss Disclosure and Zero Point Energy (ZPE). He was concerned about the peace in space.

    Mitchell wrote: “My Catholic colleague Terri Mansfield will be there too, to bring us up to date on the Vatican’s awareness of ETI. Another colleague is working on a new Space Treaty, citing involvement with Russia and China. However, with Russia’s extreme interference in Ukraine, I believe we must pursue another route for peace in space and ZPE on Earth.”

    Mitchell emailed Podesta again on September 18, 2015. He wrote: “Because the War in Space race is heating up, I felt you should be aware of several factors as you and I schedule our Skype talk. Remember, our nonviolent ETI from the contiguous universe are helping us bring zero point energy to Earth. They will not tolerate any forms of military violence on Earth or in space.”

    It was confirmed by one of Mitchell’s collaborators that the meeting between Podesta and him never took place. He died in February 2016 at the age of 85, just a few days short of the 45th anniversary of the Apollo 14 return to Earth, the mission that changed his life forever.

    NASA's Ingenuity Mars Helicopter Left Engineers on Read for A Week

    NASA's Mars helicopter is fine, but we can expect radio silence more often.

    TOPSHOT - A full scale model of the experimental Ingenuity Mars Helicopter, which will be carried un...

    Ingenuity marked its 50th flight with a late April Fool’s prank on its operators, going no-contact with them for almost a week in mid-April before finally responding just in the nick of time.

    The Mars helicopter’s chief engineer, Travis Brown, recently revealed details of the helicopter’s nerve-wracking week of silence in a blog post.

    The little helicopter was only supposed to make five flights — just enough to prove it was possible to fly in the thin air on Mars. It’s now logged 51, and moved on from proving it could fly to scouting routes and science goals for the Perseverance Rover. Ingenuity has done so, so well, but its human colleagues are in for more suspense and drama in the coming months.

    LEFT ON READ

    At NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Ingenuity’s team of operators thought everything was fine when they downloaded the data from the Mars helicopter’s 49th flight on April 2. Ingenuity had managed to snap its highest-altitude photograph yet, and it had finished a very successful science scouting flight a few days earlier. But on the 755th sol (Martian day) of the mission, when the crew on Earth tried to send Ingenuity instructions for its milestone 50th flight, they heard only silence.

    The trouble with operating robots on Mars is that you’re 188 million miles away, and sometimes an $80 million space robot just disappears. It stops answering radio messages, and you may know exactly what happened, or you may have to wait for a satellite flyover to find the wreckage. It’s not a job for the faint of heart.

    So the Ingenuity team was relieved, to put it mildly, when the helicopter finally pinged out a faint reply to Perseverance’s radio calls. A couple of sols later — it was April 23 back here on Earth — the crew at JPL managed to send Ingenuity its instructions for Flight 50.

    It turned out that a rocky ridge had blocked radio signals between Ingenuity and Perseverance, and the rover’s body may actually have been blocking the antenna it uses to call Ingenuity.

    NOT IN “MARTIAN KANSAS” ANYMORE

    Things are only going to get harder for Ingenuity, and more nerve-wracking for its loyal crew of humans. For one thing, the terrain Ingenuity and Perseverance are working their way across is uneven and not as well-mapped as the area around Wright Brothers Airfield, where Ingenuity made its first few flights.

    “We are not in Martian Kansas anymore,” said Josh Anderson, Ingenuity operations lead at JPL, in a statement. “We’re flying over the dried-up remnants of an ancient river that is filled with sand dunes, boulders, and rocks, and surrounded by hills that could have us for lunch. And while we recently upgraded the navigation software onboard to help determine safe airfields, every flight is still a white-knuckler.”

    Meanwhile, Ingenuity has now logged 10 times as much flight time as it was originally built for, and some of the helicopter’s components are starting to wear out. The Mars helicopter is also facing the same challenge as every other robot we send to Mars: dust piling up on its solar panel. Ingenuity’s days are numbered, but nobody can guess the number yet.

    “When we first flew, we thought we would be incredibly lucky to eke out five flights,” said Teddy Tzanetos, Ingenuity team lead at JPL. “Every operational day is a blessing. Whether Ingenuity’s mission ends tomorrow, next week, or months from now is something no one can predict at present.”

    You Can Detect Tsunamis as They Push the Atmosphere Around

    Anyone who’s ever lived along a coastline or been at sea knows the effects of tsunamis. And, they appreciate all the early warning they can get if one’s on the way. Now, NASA’s GNSS Upper Atmospheric Real-time Disaster and Alert Network (GUARDIAN) is using global navigation systems to measure the effect these ocean disturbances have on our atmosphere. The system’s measurements could provide a very effective early warning tool for people to get to higher ground in the path of a tsunami.

    Earthquakes and undersea volcanic eruptions often trigger tsunamis. Essentially, those tectonic events displace huge amounts of ocean water. During the resulting tsunami, huge areas of the ocean’s surface rise and fall. As they do, the ocean movement displaces the overlying column of air. That sets off ripples in the atmosphere. Think of it as if the air is responding by creating its own tsunami. It actually does that in response to fast-moving storms and their squall lines. Meteorologists call those reactions “meteotsunamis.” They can push water around into dangerous waves, which then cause flooding and other damage. That’s very similar to tsunamis generated by earthquakes.

    What NASA’s Doing to Predict Tsunamis

    Weather forecasters can generally predict bad weather leading to meteotsunamis, but that’s not the case for earthquakes and underwater volcanoes and the tsunamis they trigger. So, the NASA project aims to provide advance notice after a temblor or a volcanic eruption.

    The GUARDIAN system taps into a constant data stream emitted by clusters of global positioning satellites and other wayfinding stations orbiting Earth. They give real-time information about changes in water heights in the ocean and surface measurements of land masses. Those data-rich radio signals get collected by ground stations and sent to NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory. There, it gets analyzed by the Global Differential network, which constantly improves the real-time positional accuracy of features on the planet.

    So, when a tectonic event happens, the system is alerted to look for changes in the air masses over the oceans. Displaced ripples in the air move out in all directions as low-frequency sound and gravity waves. Those vibrations rush to the top of the atmosphere within just a few minutes. There, they crash into the charged particles of the ionosphere. That distorts signals from the GPS satellites, and those distorted signals tell the system that something’s going on down below.

    This animation shows how waves of energy from the Tohoku-Oki earthquake and tsunami of March 11, 2011, pierced Earth’s ionosphere in the vicinity of Japan, disturbing the density of electrons. These disturbances were monitored by tracking GPS signals between satellites and ground receivers.

    Normally navigational systems would correct for the distorted signals because they aren’t useful to their users, according to Léo Martire, who works on the GUARDIAN project. “Instead of correcting for this as an error, we use it as data to find natural hazards,” he said.

    Early Warning is the Key

    The most active tectonic region on our planet is the area known as the Ring of Fire. It’s basically a large ring of volcanically and tectonically active regions in the Pacific Ocean basin. About 78 percent of tsunamis between 1900 and 2015 occurred there.

    Most of us remember the tsunami that hit Japan after a magnitude 9.0 earthquake hit just off the coast in 2011. That event devastated 70 kilometers of coastline, destroyed towns and villages, killed hundreds of people, and shut down the Fukushima nuclear power plant.

    One of the most damaging tsunamis occurred on the Big Island of Hawai’i on April 1st, 1946. An earthquake off the Aleutian Islands triggered the tsunami that crushed a small village in Alaska and struck California. It also reached out and touched the Hawaiian coast near Hilo. 50-foot waves crashed into the island, taking out buildings, and bridges, and killing 159 people.

    Volcanic eruptions also trigger these waves. The Tonga eruption of January 15, 2022, sent a tsunami out across the Pacific and disrupted the atmosphere, which affected satellites around the world.

    GUARDIAN and the Ring of Fire

    With potential damages like these and others, it’s no wonder scientists look for ways to predict those events. “When there is a large earthquake near the ocean, we want to quickly know the magnitude and characteristics of the earthquake to understand the likelihood that a tsunami will be generated, and we want to know if a tsunami was indeed generated,” said Gerald Bawden, the program scientist for Earth’s Surface and Interior at NASA Headquarters in Washington. “Today there are two ways to know if a tsunami was generated before it makes landfall—NOAA’s DART buoys and GNSS-ionosphere observations. There is a limited number of buoys and they are very expensive, so systems like GUARDIAN have the potential to complement current warning systems.”

    At the moment, the GUARDIAN project is using the Pacific Ocean as a testbed for the early warning system. GPS measurements measure the displacements in the atmosphere. The project created a website where experts can look up the state of the ionosphere in real time. There’s data from about 90 stations situated around the Ring of Fire, and any signals from events show up nearly instantaneously. Eventually, the system should be useful for events occurring around the world, wherever a tectonic event disrupts sea, land, and atmosphere.

    This US Scientist Saw Roswell Alien Survivor Who Revealed They Live Underground

    Could there be another civilization living among us? UFO expert Anna Whitty has put forth a theory suggesting that aliens have been residing in Earth’s oceans for protection and have always been present on our planet. Whitty’s claims are based on the official statement of Dr. Shirley Wright, who allegedly interviewed the only survivor of the Roswell crash in 1947.

    A two-hour documentary called “Roswell 75: The Final Evidence” features Whitty along with other experts, discussing the UFO crash and the potential presence of advanced humanoid aliens on Earth. In the documentary, Dr. Wright mentioned that the aliens inquired about human exploration inside the ocean, they asked “how far into the ocean” the humans traveled.

    Dr. Shirley Wright, a former colleague of Albert Einstein stated that she interviewed aliens found at the Roswell crash site in 1947. She noted that aliens are actually just humans, but an advanced form. She claimed to have been present when the US government interviewed an alien survivor from the Roswell crash. According to Dr. Wright, the alien said that not all of them live above the ground and that many reside underground on our planet.

    In 1993, an interview with Dr. Shirley Wright was made public where she claims to have witnessed the examination of Roswell UFO crash debris and encountered nine alien bodies. The interview reveals detailed descriptions of the aliens’ physical characteristics, their suits, and their apparent ability to survive in Earth’s atmosphere, while also highlighting the limited information they were willing to disclose about their lifestyle and reproductive methods.

    According to Dr. Wright, while discussing her security clearance, she revealed: “The only reason we could go is that it’s a crack or did they deactivate it… after school, it was immediately deactivated.” This suggests that her access to the Roswell incident was facilitated by her clearance, which was granted specifically for the purpose of examining the extraterrestrial crash.

    When asked about her encounter with the alien survivor, Dr. Wright admitted: “I was back at the motel in a city nearby, and I had been told that I would be able to keep the being alive.” This statement raises questions about the nature of her involvement and the significance of her role in handling and studying the extraterrestrial being.

    Describing the appearance of the aliens, Dr. Wright vividly recalled: “They were very light, soft, a grayish-green, really. They had a slim, lean physique, no nose but markings where a nose opening would be, prominent eyes, and a mouth. They had no eyebrows, but they had ears and a very forked head.” These detailed descriptions paint a picture of the otherworldly beings she encountered during her extraordinary experience.

    Additionally, Dr. Wright noted: “Their eyes were enormous, the most obvious thing you’d see on their face. They were almost brown-black, very dark.” This emphasizes the distinctiveness of the aliens’ eyes and adds to the mystique surrounding their appearance.

    Regarding their attire, Dr. Wright observed: “They had suits on, very much like what we call suits. The fabric, however, was unfamiliar to me as a chemist. It didn’t resemble any fabric I recognized.” This intriguing detail raises questions about the technology and materials used by these extraterrestrial visitors.

    Dr. Wright also touched upon the aliens’ apparent ability to adapt to Earth’s atmosphere, stating, “They could apparently survive in our atmosphere. They seemed to indicate that the atmosphere was quite similar, although not identical to ours.” This revelation hints at the remarkable adaptability of these beings and their advanced understanding of different planetary conditions.

    In the realm of their lifestyle and reproductive methods, Dr. Wright admitted: “We tried to find that out, but we were very cautious not to antagonize them. They didn’t reveal much about it, but they mentioned living underground, in what we would call subterranean conditions.” This suggests a unique aspect of their civilization and their preference for dwelling beneath the surface.

    Anna Whitty told the Daily Star that if whatever Wright had documented through her interview is correct, then it is more believable for the aliens to come from under the sea rather than from another planet. “If what Shirley said is right, it is more likely that aliens come from somewhere under the sea or caves or something like that, rather than another planet, it makes sense because there’s a lot of evidence on the planet that there has been a massive cataclysm every few thousand years,” Whitty said.

    “If humans on the surface are being reset to the Stone Age every several thousands of years, and these people are somewhere where they are more protected because they are underground, then perhaps their development in technology and intelligence is continuing on an upwards trajectory whereas we’re reset. It’s also possible that maybe they aren’t beings at all, but they can make you think you’re seeing what you’re not seeing,” she added.

    Whitty’s theory of aliens being “underwater entities” is supported by several incidents and testimonies. One such incident occurred in July 2019 when footage filmed on the USS Omaha showed a UFO diving into the water off San Diego. No wreckage or recovered craft were found. Retired US Air Force Lt. Col. Richard French, who served as a lead investigator of Project Blue Book in the 1950s, claimed to have witnessed two aliens repairing their ship submerged underwater in Newfoundland.

    French testified about his experiences in front of former members of Congress at the Citizen Hearing in 2013, stating that he saw the aliens and their crafts below the water surface. He described clear water that allowed him to observe the beings and their activities. Despite his role as a UFO debunker, French confirmed that it was a UFO sighting involving extraterrestrials.

    Other accounts support the idea of extraterrestrial presence in the ocean. Former Gunner’s Mate John Baughman, stationed on the USS Carl Vinson in 2010, reported seeing a Tic Tac-shaped UFO underwater. He described a solid object that rapidly collapsed and disappeared as it descended into the depths.

    There have also been encounters with unidentified submerged objects (USOs). The crew of a Soviet submarine witnessed six disc-like objects approaching their vessel at high speeds. Unable to escape, they were forced to surface. Through the periscope, they observed the objects emerging from the water and swiftly departing.

    Classic alien abduction cases also involve encounters with underwater bases. Betty Andreasson Luca, a Massachusetts woman, experienced multiple abductions and recalled being taken to a spacecraft flying over the ocean. The craft submerged into the water, entering a tunnel illuminated by light. Filiberto Cardenas claimed to have been taken to a secret underwater hangar witnessed by his friend’s family. He described entering a tunnel at high speed underwater and arriving at a large hangar beneath the sea.

    These incidents and testimonies provide evidence for the presence of extraterrestrial activity in the ocean and support Whitty’s theory of aliens as “underwater entities.”

    The UFO Invasion of Italy in 1978: What Were They After?

    The UFO Invasion of Italy in 1978: What Were They After?

    A bizarre series of UFO related events unfolded over Italian skies in the year 1978. Throughout the year, and extending into January 1979, hundreds of UFOs sightings were reported by people across the country. Richard Hall – one of the most prominent ufologists – states that more than 500 cases are on record for that year, with at least 130 being close encounters and 25 involve humanoid entities. The sightings led to an unprecedented bout of public discussions in Italy, some even in the Parliament. Many reports of sightings came in from the officers of the army, police and navy, which prompted the New York Times to run a story on December 17, 1978, with the headline, “Italian Skies Peppered By Lighted Doughnuts — Some Say UFO's”.

    The report stated,

    “The skies of Italy, it seems, are full of OVNIS, the Italian version of U.F.O.'s. Unidentified flying objects that give off green, red or white lights and have a doughnut-like hole in the middle have been reported and, in some cases, photographed, at dozens of places between Palermo, Sicily, and Milan, in the north…Newspapers all over the country have been getting calls for weeks — so many that Paese Sera, the Communist newspaper in Rome, said it might have to consider a daily column about the sightings…
    The most alarming item was from San Benedetto del Tronto, a fishing village on the Adriatic’ near Pescara, where two fishermen in a boat were reported to have disappeared without a trace on a clear night. Fishermen in the area refused to go out at night after that, and there is talk of an “Adriatic Triangle,” reminiscent of the legendary “Bermuda Triangle,” where ships and planes are rumored to have disappeared for generations.”

    No-one really knows why a wave of UFOs suddenly decided to swoop down on the country in 1978. Was it just a large group of interstellar travelers stopping by in batches to have a look around the country, or something more involved? Before we speculate on those questions, let’s review some of the intriguing cases of that year.

    The UFO sightings peaked between the 14th and 20th of September, 1978, with around 120 cases being reported. One of the events occurred in the province of Sienna on 17th September. It was investigated by Dr. Roberto Pinotti, a leading authority of Italian ufology and the Vice-President of the UFO research organization called CUN (Centro Ufologico Nazionale). Dr. Pinotti’s report was published in the Flying Saucer Review magazine in 1979.[1]

    The incident involved a person called Rivo Faralli (25y), a barber by profession, who had just left his mother’s house at around 9 pm on his Fiat 127, and moved a few meters, when the car stalled and the electric system stopped functioning. Rivo saw a strange, shining object land in front of the car. It had a disc-shaped lower part of red color, while the upper part was hemispherical and of glowing orange color. The light from the craft illuminated the surroundings. It stood on the road on three iridescent beams of light, and seemed to hover in the air at the height of the Fiat 127’s bonnet. The object was around three meters in diameter and it occupied all the roadway. Dr. Pinotti writes,

    Suddenly, on the object, a "port" opened in the manner of a double door, one part to the left, the other to the right. Two beings emerged and descended in a fluctuating motion until they were about 10 centimeters from the ground. They were about 1.00 to 1.10 meters (3.3 – 3.6 feet) in height. They wore green “coveralls”…big helmets, and a part of these helmets was transparent. The fronts of the helmets had what seemed to be two slender cylindrical protuberances like springs, or similar helical structures. The creatures’ skin seemed also to be green, and while their faces were to a degree human-like, they were lean with bony, arched cheeks, regular noses and thin lipless mouths. Mr. Faralli could not see their eyes and ears as they were hidden in a shaded zone.

    They walked towards the car. Their gait was awkward as they encircled the vehicle. They seemed to have more interest in the car than in its owner, and when they were behind him he could still see them by the driving mirror…After completing this round trip, they headed back for the UFO in which they ascended with the same fluctuating motion as they had displayed when descending...The port shut, and from the lower part of the craft's “body”, came two very intense beams, whereupon the craft rose vertically for about 10 meters, then shot away in level flight leaving a bright horizontal trail.

    As the craft disappeared, the car's headlights came back on, and since a gear was still engaged, the car started to move forward without any action by Rivo Faralli.

    The description of the UFO occupants, in this case, is closely aligned with the stereotypical notion of aliens in the early phase of the UFO phenomenon as “little green men” with antennae on their heads. The humanoids appeared to “float in the air”, which is a theme that continued to repeat throughout the 1978 phenomenon. Their act of examining the Fiat car, as if they had never seen such a contraption before, seems to suggest that they were not regular visitors to our planet. Either this was their first visit, or the first one since the invention of the locomotive. 

    Another sighting occurred on the next day, 18th September 1978, at about 03:30 pm in the locality of Melaria in the Udine province in Italy. This incident was investigated by ufologist Antonio Chiumiento.[2] It involved a man called Giorgio Filiputti (47y), who was fishing on the banks of the Corna River. Suddenly, he heard a kind of whistling sound, which was continuous and high-pitched, accompanied by a strong wind which made fishing impossible, because the water was striated with wavelets. Giorgio climbed the slope to check what was going on. Arriving at the top, he was amazed to see a strange object, nearly 25 meters in front of him. It had the shape of a disc, about 4 or 5 meters diameter, 3 or 4 meters in height, and topped by a cupola. It was supported by three large landing feet approx. 1.50 meters in height. The craft was made of a “golden-silvery” metal, which was shining in the sun. Antonio Chiumiento writes that,

    Almost immediately, a being came out from behind the cupola and walked on the edge of the saucer. He was approx. 1.30 meters (4.3 feet) tall, wore a very tight-fitting outfit, of a color and brightness similar to those of the saucer, which let only see his face from the forehead to the chin. The one piece outfit was entirely covered with “painted” fish scales, of varied sizes, larger upwards and decreasing towards the ends.

    The face was initially reported as “yellow”, then later “between an olive-greenish and bronze color”, with almond eyes, stretched towards the place where ears would have been, those being nonvisible because of the outfit. The mouth and the nose were completely normal…When the occupant saw the witness, he seemed to hesitate, as if he were frightened and surprised by the latter’s presence…

    After having immobilized itself a few moments, the being again walked on the saucer's wing with flexible and nimble steps, then stopped to touch the crescent shape protrusion. During this work, perhaps a repair, made by actuating a lever near the cupola or a gadget in the shape of a half-moon or horseshoe, he frequently glanced at the witness. He then disappeared again behind the cupola.

    Very few seconds later, there were was a rumbling sound, a rumble as deafening as the thunder, a whistling sound, and the craft rose vertically while retracting its landing gear very fast. It slowly rose up to ten meters, and at this time the witness noticed the presence of a rhombus-shaped grid on the underside of the UFO, dark or almost black, from which came out a blue flame. Then the object quickly tilted and moved away at a very high speed towards the south-west, taking the appearance of a ball of fire of gold color.

    In contrast to the UFO that was spotted the previous day in Sienna, this craft was slightly bigger, as was its occupant. Interestingly, the humanoid was surprised to see Giorgio near the craft, and kept a watch on him, possibly to make sure that he won’t be attacked while he was carrying out the repair. Clearly, this was not your regular sci-fi alien on a quest of galactic domination. He was careful and cautious and was not sure of what to expect from humans.

    The humanoids seen during the 1978 UFO wave in Italy were predominantly dwarf entities with a range of magical abilities. Some witnesses said that they float in the air, a few centimeters above the ground, while they are walking or bounding. The humanoid beings were also spotted inside bright orbs of light moving in the sky. Incidentally, stories of humanoid entities transforming into orbs of light and vice-versa have been reported by the indigenous Maya people of Palenque and Uxmal, as documented by the author Ardy Sixkiller Clarke in her books. A few accounts from Italy shed more light on the strange powers of these mysterious beings.

    Italian ufologist Maurizio Verga reported an incident in the Lumières Dans La Nuit magazine in 1981, concerning an event that occurred in Villammare di Sapri, Salerno, Italy.[3] He wrote that, On April 25, 1978, Mrs. Constantina Imbibo (26y) saw an enormous orange sphere, as large as the trees, which then started to shrink in size. When the sphere reached a diameter of approximately 1.5 meters, a humanoid resembling a “gnome” came out of there, wearing an orange outfit with dark orange boots. His face appeared completely human, he wore a conical cap or device, and his lower lips were very thin. He moved in short steps and bounds. Soon, the sphere shrank in size and disappeared. When the being was within 50 meters from Mrs. Imbibo, she called her husband. Immediately, the gnome hid behind a truck, and disappeared in a slight fog which persisted a few seconds. 

    A similar incident was recorded by Albert Rosales in his “1978 Humanoid Reports”. In Adrano, Catania, Italy, on June 25, 1978, late in the afternoon, several local residents were returning from an expedition to the nearby volcanic Mt Etna. They stopped their car as they noticed what appeared to be two headlights following behind them. As the lights approached they noticed that they were two human-like figures that glowed in a very bright white light. Also each carried in their right hands two luminous flashing objects. Terrified, the witnesses fled the area.

    Albert Rosales recorded another intriguing event in his “1978 Humanoid Reports” sourced from the SUF archives. On August 28, 1978, at 02:30 a.m., near Chieti, Italy, a baker named Amerigo Rocci was on his way to work when his car broke down. While checking under the hood, a powerful bright light illuminated the area around him. He then noticed five strange figures, as tall as an eight-year-old child. The figures moved in unison in synchronized movements and appeared to float 25 cm above the road. The figures wore a dark, gray, tight-fitting diver's suit and they had a large hood with a kind of antenna. As the beings were about 500 meters away, Rocci was not able to identify any facial features. The dwarf entities glided away in single file from the witness, who noticed that the last figure was carrying something resembling a “shovel”- like apparatus.

    Who knows how many such bizarre events occur after midnight and go unreported! It is odd enough that the humanoid dwarfs were floating a few cm above the road and walking in a single file, but what on earth were they doing with a shovel in the middle of the night? Grave diggers? Treasure hunters? Or some studious aliens collecting soil and plant samples?

    Another entry in Albert Rosales’s “1978 Humanoid Reports” records a strange event that went down in San Vito Chietino, Italy, on December 23, 1978. At around 20:30 pm, the Bucco family was returning from visiting relatives when a dazzling light began to follow their vehicle. The light overtook the vehicle and the vehicle suddenly stopped without the driver applying the brakes. Then, at the same time a strange little man crossed road in front of the vehicle in bounding jumps. Mr. Bucco thought he had struck the figure with the car. The figure then quickly bounded away and disappeared into a nearby pine grove. While Francesco and Fiorentina Bucco saw only one humanoid, the other two passengers in the vehicle reported seeing two. The figure or figures wore brown astronaut like suits, large helmets with black square visors, and 5-digit white gloves. The beings were about 1 meter in height, and moved over the road in a strange unison, robot-like manner, floating 20-35 cm above the road, as if moving and bouncing on an invisible cushion.

    In case you happen to meet one of these little child-like beings in the middle of the night and entertain the idea of lifting them up and taking them to the nearest pub to show them off - abolish that thought immediately, for it could prove to be very dangerous, as Alfonso D'Aviero found out on the night of December 16, 1978.

    Moreno Tambellini documented a humanoid sighting event in his book,4 taken from the SUF archives. In Francavilla, Italy, on December 16, 1978, late in the afternoon, Alfredo D'Aviero was returning home on his Garelli 50 motorcycle, when he suddenly saw two “small strange beings” with small and round eyes. They had their arms behind their back and seemed to laugh, and one of the two had his jaw twisted a little. They were clad in a white-silver outfit and around the head they had a tight-fitted tissue which covered the ears. Their legs did not have any knee, and were rigid like two sticks. Aviero offered them cigarettes and kakis, but they refused. He decided to take them to Francavilla as proof of his experience. He was going to try that when a dazzling flash of light neutralized his action, and when he reopened his eyes both the beings were not there anymore.

    These anecdotes give us an idea of the impressive array of “magical” powers that these dwarf humanoids command. They can disappear, float in the air a few centimeters above the ground, transform into luminous orbs of light and defend themselves against perceived threats by paralyzing the enemy or making him unconscious. No stories of abductions or telepathic communications, however, were reported during this UFO wave in Italy.

    When the UFO phenomenon started burgeoning in 1978, most Italians were not aware of UFOs or aliens, except for a few researchers. The people in general, including the press, police and the bureaucracy, were taken by surprise and did not know what to think or how to react. Many reports of UFO sightings were filed by police officers, which assured other witnesses that they were not going bonkers, and encouraged them to come forward with their experiences. The press was more than happy to give coverage to these stories, and no-one, generally speaking, tried to hush up or obfuscate what was going on. As a result, we have a large catalogue of sightings over a short span of time, which lowers the probability of the stories being hallucinations or fabrications. These sightings provide us with a reliable and interesting peek into the early UFO phenomenon.

    One naturally wonders why the UFOs decided to come in a wave over a period of one year in 1978. The fact that something like this had never happened before or after 1978 seems to suggest that the aliens got what they were looking for. Or, perhaps, they were so disappointed by the Earthlings that they did not feel like returning. What stands out from these experiences is that the humanoid beings were generally curious and may have come on a reconnaissance mission to study our planet, and to collect samples to take back with them. 

    Generally we tend think of aliens as extraterrestrial beings who come here from some other galaxy or stellar system, but we cannot ignore the possibility that some of them may be subterrestrials i.e. beings who live under the surface of the Earth. The majority of witnesses during the 1978 UFO wave in Italy reported dwarf, humanoid beings, and the legends of many cultures tell us of a race of human-like dwarfs, who reside in lavishly decorated subterranean chambers. They can shape shift, fly through the air and become invisible at will. Their magical powers were said to reside in their cap or head-dress that they wore at all times. Being expert blacksmiths, they could fashion magical contraptions such as flying machines. The dwarfs were one of the members of the “faerie folk” that include an ensemble of supernatural beings including elves, fairies and others. In popular mythology, elves were sometimes said to have green skin. In fact, the elf helpers of Santa Claus, who are depicted as small, green-clad beings with pointy ears and wearing pointed hats, is a continuation of such folk beliefs. If the “little green men” reported in UFO sightings are various classes of subterrestrials, then it would imply that the faerie folk are intimately tied up with the UFO phenomenon.

    In Italy, and particularly in Sicily, there used to be a widespread belief in the fairies during the medieval period. But, after the infamous “witch trials”, contact between humans and the fairies ceased, and all such stories slowly drifted into the realm of folklore and myth. In Sicily, the faerie folk were called Doñas de fuera. They could make contact with humans, mostly women deemed to have “sweet blood”, whom they took to Benevento, by mounting them on magical, flying goats. Between 1579 and 1651 there were a number of witch trials in Sicily, in which the accused were exiled or jailed, but not sentenced to death. The witch trials in Sicily were relatively mild, because the local population held a positive view of the faerie phenomenon. The belief that the fairies were benevolent creatures remained in Sicily long after the Inquisition, but have been forgotten in the modern era.

    What if the UFO wave of 1978 was simply an attempt by the faerie folk to explore the world after a long period of isolation and hibernation? It is said that, “time” in the “otherworld” passes very slowly, in which case a period of 400-odd years might simply be a long nap for these beings. If that were the case, the faerie folk would have been very surprised to see how the world has changed since the medieval ages. In either case, whether extraterrestrials or subterrestrials, the 1978 UFO invasion of Italy remains one of the most interesting events of ufology, which is not as widely known or discussed as it should be.

    The Mysterious Sphinx of Balochistan: Natural Formation or a Man-made Architectural Wonder?

    The Mysterious Sphinx of Balochistan: Natural Formation or a Man-made Architectural Wonder?

    Bibhu Dev Misra

    A mysterious Sphinx-shaped structure known as the Balochistan Sphinx looms over the desolate, rocky, landscape of the Makran coastline in the Balochistan province of Pakistan. The region of Balochistan lies between Iran and Afghanistan on the west and India on the east, with the Arabian Sea bordering the south. This arid region of desert and mountains is primarily populated by the ethnic Baloch people who converted to Islam after the Arab occupation of the region.

    No-one really knew about the existence of the Balochistan Sphinx before the Makran Coastal Highway opened in 2004, linking the city of Karachi with the port town of Gwadar on the Makran coast. The structure lies right alongside the highway, in close proximity to a number of other structures resembling temples and buildings. It takes nearly four hours by car to reach the Balochistan Sphinx from Karachi (240 kms) along the Makran Coastal Highway which meanders through a surreal landscape. The Sphinx is located within the Hingol National Park, where people occasionally come for day visits from Karachi.

    It is a four-hour drive from Karachi to the Hingol National Park along the Makran Coastal Highway. The Balochistan Sphinx is located inside the Hingol National Park.

    When I first saw pictures of the Balochistan Sphinx and the surrounding areas, it looked to me as being a rock-cut archaeological site of great antiquity. However, I was surprised to find that, the journalists who wrote about the Balochistan Sphinx, routinely referred to it as a natural formation, even though no there is no evidence of any archaeological survey being conducted at the site. This was very strange, to say the least. How can any person – with even a little bit of interest in history or archaeology - look at this place and not feel a desire to investigate further? Why have archaeological excavations not been conducted here? And, on what basis are journalists calling this a natural formation? Are they simply guessing or have they been instructed to refer to it that way?

    I first wrote about the Balochistan Sphinx in a blog post in 2017, where I brought attention to the many peculiarities of the site, and since then more people have become interested in the place, even though an official survey has not yet been done. A cursory glance at the Sphinx shows that it has a well-defined jawline and discernible facial features such as eyes, nose and mouth. The Sphinx wears a head-dress that closely resembles the Nemes head-dress of the Egyptian pharaoh. The Nemes head-dress is a striped head cloth that covers the crown and back of the head. It has two large, conspicuous flaps which hangs down behind the ears and in front of the shoulders. The ear-flaps of the Nemes head-dress can be clearly seen on the Balochistan Sphinx. The Sphinx also has a horizontal groove across the forehead corresponding to the pharaonic head-band that holds the Nemes head-dress in place. We can even make out the contours of the reclining forelegs of the Sphinx, terminating in well-defined paws.

    In other words, this is not just any other rock formation that bears somewhat of a resemblance to an animal. It is a very realistic rendition of the Sphinx – a well-known legendary animal that is found in the art and archaeology of many ancient cultures.

    What is really intriguing about this site is not just Sphinx itself, but the surrounding structures, all of which give the impression of being carved by the hands of man. Let’s look at the elevated platform on top of which the Sphinx is located. One can easily make out pillars, niches and a symmetric crosshatch pattern carved on this platform, just as you would expect in any temple complex. There are a series of steps leading to site. The steps, and in fact the entire site, has been covered by sediment and heavily eroded. 

    Some people look at the Sphinx and associated structures and say it is “pareidolia.” In case you didn’t know, pareidolia is the phenomenon of seeing familiar objects and patterns where none exists. It is the easy way out for those who don’t want to do the hard work of surveys and excavations. If pareidolia was even a "thing" in archaeology, then none of the Mesoamerican pyramids - as well as many other archaeological structures from around the world - would have been discovered, for they had turned into mounds of earth, and were completely unrecognizable until the hands of man cleared away the mud. The only logical thing to do when you see a place like this is to conduct full-scale surveys and excavations. And that, unfortunately, has not yet been done here.

    The Balochistan Sphinx is located on top of an elevated platform with steps, pillars, niches and a symmetric pattern.

    Now onto the surrounding structures. Very close to the Sphinx, situated on top of the same platform is a large temple-like structure, with a symmetrical spire. The Sphinx appears to be looking in the direction of the temple, and acting as its protector. Close by there are two more structures which look man-made. One resembles a small temple, resembling the typical rock-cut temples of India, and the other seems to be a megalithic building.

    Let’s look at these structures a bit more closely. The structure closest to the Sphinx appears to be large temple with a flat-topped spire. I am calling it the Sphinx Temple, since the Sphinx appears to be looking in the direction of the temple, functioning as its protector. In sacred architecture, the Sphinx always performed a protective function. The Egypt, the Sphinx faces the eroded ruins of the Old Sphinx Temple which dates to the time when the Sphinx was built. The limestone blocks used to build the walls of the Old Sphinx Temple came from the ditch surrounding the Sphinx. When the Sphinx was being carved out of the bedrock, workmen hauled away the quarried blocks to construct the temple.[1]

    In India, the Sphinx appears in the early Hindu-Buddhist art of Central and North-west India from the 1st century BCE onwards. Its primary position was near the temple gateway, acting as a guardian of the sanctuary. However, figures of sphinxes were sculpted all over the temple premises including the entrance gates, halls and near the central shrine.[2] In one of its forms, it crouches or stands in front of a miniaturized temple, indicating that it is a protector of the temple.

    A closer look at the Sphinx Temple of Balochistan shows evidence of pillars carved on the walls. The temple entrance may be concealed behind a large pile-up of sediment in front. It seems there are one or more figures carved on the façade of the temple, above the entrance. These figures may have been intended as “dvarapalas” i.e. door guardians. In Hindu-Buddhist temples, dvarapalas are giant figures who stand guard in pairs on either side of the temple entrance. The Sphinx Temple of Balochistan actually looks similar to the flat-topped entrance towers, called gopurams, of the temples of Southern India.

    Close to the Sphinx Temple, there is a smaller temple-like structure on top of the elevated platform. This temple has clearly defined pillars and a spire, and looks very similar to the rock-cut temples of ancient India. For anyone who is familiar with Indian architecture, it hard to believe that this is not man-made.

    In addition to these two temples, there are a number of interesting structures in lying in close proximity to the Sphinx. Some of them resemble palaces, while other look like rectangular megalithic buildings. It is inconceivable how such symmetric structures can be produced through random processes of erosion. Here are a few such structures, which are routinely passed off as natural formations by journalists.

    Right next door to the Balochistan Sphinx there is another prominent landmark of the Makran coast called the “Princess of Hope”. The name was coined by Angelina Jolie who had visited the Hingol National Park in 2002 as a UN Goodwill Ambassador. She thought that the structure resembles a crowned and skirted female figure looking toward the horizon. However, in my opinion, the structure looks more like a heavily eroded watchtower or temple spire. A drone view of surrounding landscape shows how surreal it is, with pillars and geometric patterns everywhere you look.

    There are a few interesting YouTube videos made over the past few years which provide a good sense of what is going on that area. This video (click here) of a drive along the Makran Highway is an excellent place to start.

    As you cross the Buzi Pass, the scenery suddenly changes for a distance of around 2-3 kms (till 3:30 min in the video) when all kinds of surreal and apparently man-made structures start popping into view. It is almost as if this was an ancient city, with the Balochistan Sphinx located at its extremity. If this was solely the work of nature then why would be restricted to a specific area? Humans, on the other hand, tend to build their buildings in clusters. Some interesting drone footage of the Sphinx and Princess of Hope can be seen in this video (click here) shared by Juliette Jean, who also references my blog post.

    This video (click here) gives a good virtual tour of the Princess of Hope area where one can easily spot rock cut caves, balconies, and regularly spaced pillars.

    Many people from Balochistan and Pakistan who have visited the Balochistan Sphinx site are of the opinion that the Sphinx is such an imposing and majestic structure, and looks so lifelike, that it is most likely man-made, in addition to all the other structures nearby. My opinion, based on all the images and videos I have seen online, is on similar lines. There was, probably, a large ancient city here, which was devastated by cataclysms and subsequently suffered extensive erosion.

    Geologists have observed that the hills around the Makran coastline are covered with sea shells, which indicates that the place was once inundated by sea water. This is not surprising since the Makran coast of Balochistan is a seismically active zone, which frequently produces enormous tsunamis. It is reported that the earthquake of November 28, 1945, with its epicenter off the coast of Makran, caused a tsunami with waves reaching as high as 13 meters at some places. Moreover, a number of active mud volcanoes are strewn along Makran coastline, with a bunch of them concentrated within the Hingol National Park, near the delta of the Hingol River. Intense earthquake activity triggers the mud volcanoes to erupt, which can spew staggering amounts of mud drowning the surrounding landscape. Sometimes, mud volcano islands appear in the Arabian Sea, off the coast of Makran, which are dissipated by wave action within a year. 

    This tells us that the Balochistan Sphinx complex may have been ravaged multiple times by powerful earthquakes and destructive tsunamis which dumped tons of sediments on the structures before the waters receded. Subsequently, wind and water erosion did its job. The actions of humans and nature appear to have combined to create this surreal landscape, which seems to be hiding a lost city of unknown antiquity.

    The question is, if this site or ancient city is man-made, how old is it? We know that the Indus Valley Civilization extended along the Makran coastline and its westernmost archaeological site was Sutkagen Dor, situated near the Iranian border. Therefore, some of these structures could have been built thousands of years ago, during the Indus Period (c.3000 BCE). It could be even older than that, and may have been built by some pre-Indus culture. The site may have been constructed in phases, starting from a very remote period. Perhaps, it was on the mountains of the Makran coast that the Indus artisans honed and perfected their architectural and rock cutting skills, which were later transported to the Indian civilization.

    The Indus Valley Civilization included sites located along the Makran coast.

    During the historical period, the Makran region was regarded by the Arab chroniclers as the “frontier of al-Hind” i.e. the frontier of India. The sovereignty of parts of the region alternated between Indian and Persian kings from the early historical period. In the decades preceding the Muslim raids, Makran was under the dominion of a dynasty of Hindu kings, who had their capital at Alor in Sind.[3]

    When the Chinese pilgrim Hiuen Tsang visited Makran in the 7th century CE, he noted that the script which was in use in Makran was “much the same as India”, but the spoken language “differed a little from that of India”. Historian Andre Wink writes that:

    The same chiefdom of Armadil is referred to by Hiuen Tsang as O-tien-p’o-chi-lo’, located at the high road running through Makran, and he also describes it as predominantly Buddhist, thinly populated though it was, it had no less than 80 Buddhist convents with about 5000 monks. In effect at eighteen km north west of Las Bela at Gandakahar, near the ruins of an ancient town are the caves of Gondrani, and as their constructions show these caves were undoubtedly Buddhist. Traveling through the Kij valley further west (then under the government of Persia) Hiuen Tsang saw some 100 Buddhist monasteries and 6000 priests. He also saw several hundred Deva temples in this part of Makran, and in the town of Su-nu li-chi-shi-fa-lo - which is probably Qasrqand- he saw a temple of Maheshvara Deva, richly adorned and sculptured. There is thus very wide extension of Indian cultural forms in Makran in the seventh century, even in the period when it fell under Persian sovereignty. By comparison in more recent times the last place of Hindu pilgrimage in Makran was Hinglaj, 256 km west of present day Karachi in Las Bela.”[4]

    Thus, as per the accounts of Hiuen Tsang, even in the 7th century CE, the Makran coast was dotted with hundreds of Buddhist monasteries and caves, as well as several hundred Hindu Temples, including a richly sculpted temple of Lord Shiva. What happened to these caves, temples, and monasteries of the Makran coast? Were they all destroyed during the Arab raids? Or is it possible that some remnants of them have survived? And having become highly eroded and covered with sediment, they are being passed off as natural formations?

    It is a mystery, therefore, why an official archaeological survey has not yet being conducted at this place, when the signs of human civilization are so obvious. Could it be due to a lack of funding? Balochistan is an impoverished place, and from the conversations I had with some academics of the region, there are no trained archaeologists in Balochistan to carry out a scientific survey. The onus is on Pakistan, and from what I have heard, archaeological explorations in Pakistan are heavily underfunded, with many known Indus sites still remaining unexcavated. However, funding cannot be a such big issue for a preliminary survey to be done here. Some people think that the Balochistan Sphinx is a dangerous place to visit because of the Baloch insurgency that has been going on for many years, which is why official surveys are risky. That is not really true, because people from Karachi routinely travel along the Makran highway, and they have told me that it is quite safe to travel to the Sphinx, since the insurgents are not active along this route. The other issue is that, this region falls under the CPEC (China Pakistan Economic Corridor) and is under the control of the Pakistan army. However, I do not see why that should hinder an official survey, although it could be difficult for foreigners to roam around freely here.

    So what is going on? Could it be that the people in authority are already aware that this is a very ancient site which could topple the chronology of civilization in South Asia, or in fact, the entire world, and are deliberately trying to cover it up? It’s a possibility that cannot be ruled out. Some recent contacts have told me that they are not being allowed by the army to walk up to the Sphinx and explore the surrounding ruins, with the excuse that it could “endanger” these natural formations. So, not only are official surveys not being conducted, ordinary people not being allowed to explore the site freely, and the media is being instructed to refer to these astonishing monuments as “natural formations”. All the signs of a deliberate cover-up seem to be in place. It is an unfortunate reality of our times that many people in power misuse their authority to hide and distort the truth. The only possible way this situation can be salvaged is if international attention can be drawn to these monuments, appropriate pressure is exerted on the government of Pakistan through petitions and other means, and international bodies like the UNESCO are alerted and convinced to conduct a much-need archaeological survey of the site, so that thtruth can emerge.

    Be aware, they are erasing UFO history for the new narrative!

    A NASA panel formed last year to study "unidentified aerial phenomena," commonly referred to as UFOs, held its first public meeting Wednesday ahead of hotly-anticipated report scheduled to be released in the coming months.. 

    The 16-member body, which includes experts from fields ranging from physics to astrobiology, was tasked with examining unclassified UFO sightings and other data collected from government and commercial sectors. 
    David Spergel, chair of NASA’s panel on unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), said Wednesday that stigma around the reporting of UAP has made the collection of data on the topic difficult. He said data collection is also “unsystematic and fragmented” across many agencies and that reported UAP sightings are often “uninformative” due to lack of quality control and data curation. 
    Similar to the Congressional hearings concerning the UFO/UAP phenomenon, last year, NASA's public hearing may not have provided groundbreaking revelations to those seeking confirmation of extraterrestrial life. Their findings will likely center around suggestions on how to develop better methods for collecting data on UAP events as well as the best methods for analyzing that information, but one can only wonder what they have discovered. 
    Well, 80 years of debunking and discrediting sightings of UFOs and now we have to believe that the current NASA and Pentagon efforts, mark a turning point for in the government's public stance on UFOs or UAP? 
    They say that all these UFOs/UAPs are completely unknown and they are working hard to figure out what is going on. And when they get that answer, they promise to tell us. In fact, this is an old story told to us repeatedly by a fundamentally dishonest institution which efforts are intended to erasure of UFO history in favor of the new narrative offered by the military establishment. 
    In the video below Richard Dolan interviews Ron James whose latest documentary, Accidental Truth, delves into current issues and analyses relating to the UFO "Disclosure" movement and one of the film's major themes is the erasure of UFO history.

    NASA probes the unexplainable! Dive into the compelling journey of their investigation into #UFOsightings

    nasa aliens

    NASA is undertaking UAP investigations with a focus on rigorous scientific data and battling the stigma within academic and scientific communities. They are committed to utilizing transparent, unclassified data to make their findings widely accessible.

    When we gaze at the sky and spot something inexplicable, the thrill and curiosity are almost instinctive. Our fascination with unidentified anomalous phenomena, popularly known as UFO sightings, transcends time and cultures, sparking heated debates, inspiring creative narratives, and fueling scientific pursuits. As the world increasingly seeks tangible explanations behind these mysterious occurrences, NASA, the world’s leading space exploration agency, steps into the spotlight.

    In a concerted effort to separate fact from fiction, NASA has assembled a 16-member panel of renowned scientists, federal employees, and industry executives, including a former astronaut. Their mission? To examine and unravel the mysteries of UFO sightings.

    VIDEO:

    • UAP Independent Study Event

    The independent group’s role is not to confirm extraterrestrial involvement, though it’s not ruled out. Instead, they address broader national security concerns, seeking answers to what exactly populates our skies. Daniel Evans, NASA’s assistant deputy associate administrator for research, reiterated, “There could potentially be very serious risks to U.S. airspace as a result of us not knowing what is in our skies at a given time.”

    The panel analyzed 800 unclassified events, accumulated over a span of 27 years. Only a minute portion, approximately 2-5%, of these cases defied explanation, a statistic that underscores the crucial need for high-quality data collection.

    VIDEO:

    • Public Meeting on Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (Official NASA Broadcast)

    David Spergel, a retired astrophysics professor and the committee’s chair, underscored the challenge posed by the lack of high-quality observations. “Right now there’s a very limited number of high-quality observations and data curation of UAP,” he remarked, advocating for a systematic way to collect public data and diminish the stigma associated with reporting UFO sightings.

    Elaborating on this, he suggested that NASA could develop a mobile application to enable people to submit and share sightings, fostering a more comprehensive data repository. He said, “The current existing data and eyewitness reports alone are insufficient to provide conclusive evidence about the nature and origin of every UAP event.”

    For years, the mention of UFO sightings evoked thoughts of unidentified flying objects. However, a recent expansion of the definition has broadened the scope to “unidentified anomalous phenomena,” accounting for mysterious undersea encounters and strange sightings in ‘near space,’ the outermost part of our atmosphere.

    As NASA prepares its final report expected later this summer, the quest for understanding UFO sightings continues to ignite interest and fuel scientific endeavor. The revelations from this study will undoubtedly shine new light on our understanding of these phenomena, potentially propelling us towards even greater discoveries.

    “7 van 8 veilige en rechtvaardige grenzen van aarde overschreden”

    De mensheid heeft zeven van de acht veilige en rechtvaardige grenzen van de aarde al overschreden. Dat zegt de Earth Commission, een internationaal team van meer dan veertig wetenschappers, in een onderzoek dat woensdag gepubliceerd is in het vaktijdschrift ‘Nature’. Niet alleen de opwarming van de aarde bedreigt het leven op onze planeet, maar ook andere door de mensheid beïnvloede ontwikkelingen zoals de slinkende zoetwatervoorraden, milieuvervuiling en de dalende biodiversiteit.
