Amazing Robotic Arm Paints Dazzling Sculptures Of Light (Video and Photos)

(Before It's News)

 (N.Morgan) Imagine if you could paint a picture with lights. You could create anything, just by a press of a few buttons. It is now a reality, creating light sculptures via a robot, by Everyware. This robot named Luxo  spins and waves a single arm to paint 3-D light paintings that resemble streaks from fireworks! An odd machine, animated by custom software created by Everyware designers Hyunwoo Bang and Yunsil Heo.

 The two designers created Luxo to move based on a pre-choreographed path. On the tip of the robot’s arm is a true color LED. As the device begins to dance and the LED blinks and changes color, a camera captures the movement. It’s the digital, invisible equivalent of a painter wielding a paintbrush to a canvas. “For us, we’re more interested in how the photos leave traces on the imagined surface,” the designers explain. “We tried to show the beauty of photography through an autopsy of it.”

 Watching Luxo move is mesmerizing. Though it’s clearly a robot, its movements are similar to the fluid motion of a living organism. Band and Heo say this is a result of using natural materials like rosewood. “Unlike steel structures, wooden frames and joints are a little bit loose and even change their forms by room temperature and humidity,” he says. “They’re like living creatures.”

Mothman / Flying Humanoid Encounter Submissions

(Before It's News)

Mothman is a legendary creature reportedly seen in the Point Pleasant area of West Virginia from November 15, 1966 to December 15, 1967. The first newspaper report was published in the Point Pleasant Register dated November 16, 1966, entitled “Couples See Man-Sized Bird…Creature…Something.”  Mothman was said to be related to a wide array of supernatural events in the area, including the deadly collapse of the Silver Bridge on December 15, 1967.

Many of the reports that I have received over the years are concentrated in the Ohio River Valley…from southeast Ohio, through West Virginia and into northern Kentucky; but there are other sightings worldwide.

I have also included several flying humanoid phenomena reports. Some of these reports are included in my 1st book Phantoms & Monsters: Cryptid Encounters

Tall Dark ‘Mothman’ Type Entity Reported – Stow, Ohio

The Munroe Falls Paranormal Society contacted me in reference to this sighting (unedited):

“MFPS was contacted by a person who had an extremely odd sighting of an entity here in Stow, OH an adjacent community of my hometown. Witness’ wife contacted me with story and after several days of negotiation, witness agreed to meet with me, recreate the events and answer questions. Witness extremely hesitant, but wife persuaded him to give story. Night of 9/14/09 witness, who wishes to remain anonymous, but name and other vitals on record, was driving to work, 10:15pm, Northbound on Hudson Drive. As witness drove under the RT8 overpass bridge, just north of the Hudson Drive Applebee’s Restaurant, he witnessed a 9-10′ tall solid black entity standing on the southbound side of the road. No discernible head or facial features noticed. Duration approx. 5-10 secs. Distance approx 15-20′ from his vehicle.

Witness had the feeling the entity was watching him and was “there” for him only. No other vehicles/persons present during sighting. Immediately after turning his head back to the road, he looked in rearview mirror, entity no longer visible. Did not see entity depart or disappear. Witness became extremely upset and scared. Felt that he paled, and his eyes began to water uncontrollably. First thought was to turn around and go home, calling off of work. He tried to call his wife at home, but cell phone would not work, either from the programmed address book, or manual input calling. Kept getting “call failed”, which has never happened before. Cell phone continued to be affected all the way to the I-271 entrance ramp, approx. 8-10 miles up the road. Witness did make it to his job, but has since regretted not turning around and going home, due to his state of mind. The experience was traumatic in every sense of that word. It was a “bad” night for him at work.

Weather was clear, starry. No other known witnesses, no animal sightings. Other than the uncontrollable watering of the eyes, no other physiological or physical effects on his person. Other than the cell phone not working, no other effects noticed on inanimate objects, such as streetlights, car, or timepiece (watch). There was no religious interpretation, no known memory lapse, no dreaming related to sighting as of this report. Witness did report close encounter with UAO as a ten year old when he lived in Akron, other than that, no overt paranormal experiences were reported during his normal daily life. Witness tried to box his sighting into something prosaic. Closest he could come was an electric company canvas transformer covering, but on reflection, he’s certain that that was not what he observed. Entity too tall, too big for that. Witness stated that immediately after the sighting he became more and more agitated and scared the further he drove along. Distinct feeling that the entity was waiting for him and possibly following him, but he did not see it again, that night. No disturbances at witness place of residence. The following day on his way home, as he neared the RT8 overpass, this time driving over the bridge he went under the day before, as he approached the bridge area, his eyes began to water uncontrollably once again, as he drove over the bridge and his eyes continued to water, until he passed beyond the bridge, then his eyes began to clear up.

Witness provided me a pencil drawing of what he observed. When I first saw the drawing I was incredulous. The drawing bears an uncanny resemblance to the original drawing submitted by the original Mothman witness of Point Pleasant WV, 1966. Witness willing to keep me informed of any further sightings or activity. I believe I have gained his trust, as I mentioned he wasn’t really interested in coming forth with this. My intuitive reaction is that witness is extremely believable and honest in his testimony. No outrageous embellishments to either his story, which I made him relate twice, nor to his drawing, which was really rather simple in nature.

So in the end, no answers at this point, but the eerie drawing he provided and its uncanny resemblance to the Mothman legacy are very much intriguing. I will continue to correspond and follow up with witness periodically and will be anxiously waiting to see if any other sightings are reported in this vicinity that might validate this entity’s appearance.”

Human Adult-Sized Flying Cryptid – Pacific, Missouri

“We were in Pacific, MO, tonight around 11:30 PM and noticed a massive flying creature, not once but three times. My son even noticed it on his own the third time. We were near a large cliff/mountain with some type of cave openings. We don’t live in the area, I can say for sure we turned onto a road called Viaduct Road, went past a fire station and continued on for about 1 mile before we first noticed it. It was brownish/grey and the body portion was at least the size of a large adult human. This creature was tracking us – in a circle pattern. We were driving an Escalade with the blue color headlights and this may have cause interest in us. The third time around we viewed it in front of the vehicle, around the driver side and around towards the rear of the vehicle. The factory tinted windows did help it vanish into the sky from our point of view.

Please understand when we could see it the range must have been about 150 feet in the air, not more than 250 feet. The distance was never less than 100 yards, often much greater. We were going about 35- 45 MPH. I have never thought of anything like this in my life! It is 3:33 AM and my son and I are wide awake in a hotel, 17 miles away from the place we first noticed the creature. Please notify me if you become aware of similar sightings. Thanks.”

Mothman Comes Home

I received the following email from a woman in Ohio who had concerns in reference to a sighting her and a girlfriend had six months prior to the report. She stated that she substituted their names for anonymity. ‘Megan’ affirms that all other details…location, date and description of the incident are factual:

“Sir – my name is Megan. I am forwarding a summary of an experience that I and a friend had in August 2010. My friend and associate Kyra and I traveled from Columbus, Ohio to Ravenswood, West Virginia on business. While we were there, I wanted to make a side trip to Gallipolis, Ohio in order to visit relatives I had not seen for quite awhile.

After our meeting and presentation, we drove onto Ohio Rt. 7 and traveled south along the Ohio River towards Gallipolis. We had a nice, though brief, visit with my relatives. Around 6PM, we left their home and drove a few miles north on Rt. 7 to check-in to a hotel near the local airport.

Around 7:30PM, we decided to get dinner and found a quiet restaurant so we could eat and work. After we finished, Kyra needed to go to the store and pick up a few items that she forgot to pack. We headed to a Wal-Mart that was nearby the restaurant.

After we finished shopping, we were walking to the car when I noticed a woman running through the parking lot. When she reached her car, she looked back in the direction of the store then hurriedly got into the car. I quickly looked in the same direction and saw what looked like a large bird flying above the roof of the store. It was difficult to see but when it swooped downward the parking lot lights would shine off of it. It looked like it was either oily or had shiny leather-like skin. Whatever it was, it had a wide wing span. I would guess it reached 8-10 foot across. It circled above the store for about a minute then just disappeared.

We were both somewhat shocked at what we witnessed but figured that it was just a huge bird. Since it was dark, I figured we had misjudged what it really was.

We drove back to the hotel and decided to call it a night so we could get an early start on the drive home in the morning. I got ready for bed but thought I’d watch some television first. By this time it was around 10PM or so.

I must have dozed off fairly quickly because the next thing I remember is frantic knocking on my door. I stumbled out of bed and checked who it was. It was Kyra and she was obviously upset. She rushed into my room and said “it’s here!” “What are you talking about?”- a little bit perturbed that she woke me up. She said that she was laying on the bed reading when she heard something in the hallway. She got out of bed, walked to the door and listened to what she thought was ‘scratching’ sounds. After a few minutes the sounds stopped, so she went back to bed. Not long after she lay down she heard more scratching sounds but, from outside her window. Again she got up and peeked through the curtains. This time, something looked back at her.

Our rooms were on the second floor in the back section of the hotel and both looked out onto a small parking lot and a large field beyond that. She could see, what she described as, a ‘bald ugly man with wings’ who was looking directly at her with ‘large bulging eyes that lit up bright red.’ It was there for only a few seconds. It then spread it’s wings while running at the same time towards the end of the parking lot and lifted off the ground like a bird.

“You’re kidding, right?” I muttered to her. “Meg, I swear to God – that thing is out there and it knows we saw it!” I knew the only way I was going to get some sleep was to allow Kyra to stay in my room. The next morning we woke early, checked out and drove back to Columbus.

Kyra didn’t mention the incident from the previous night during the ride. In fact, she has still never said anything else about it. We continue to be good friends and have a very good working relationship.

But – I got curious. I had never heard about the Mothman or any of the tales associated with it. I grew up in Texas and had only lived in Ohio for a few years. I moved into my Mom’s house after she had passed away. Her relatives lived throughout Ohio but I had never been told any of the stories.

This is the reason I am writing to you. We were near Point Pleasant, WV when we had this encounter. Do you think that it is possible that this was a Mothman? I read some of your posts recently and I’m starting to believe that Kyra actually saw something supernatural.

In light of the prophecies of danger that this thing is suppose to warn people about, Kyra has had some bad luck and tragedy since that day. Her husband suddenly left her, she had a fire in her house and she severely injured her leg in a fall. Could this be connected?

I personally don’t believe in predictions, either good or bad. But I will admit that these have been strange times since we witnessed ‘whatever.’”

NOTE: I will occasionally post other flying humanoid reports from the Phantoms & Monsters archives. Lon

HOVERING 'BALL OF LIGHT' INVESTIGATED IN KENTUCKY

Before It's News)

Reporting on 2014 UFO activity at a time when military drone technology is coming of age is tough business – as referenced in this February 21, 2014, testimony in Case 54192 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

 

The latest wave of smaller, even insect-sized drones is now being studied when witnesses report small hovering objects.

 

MUFON Case 54192 sites an Elizabethtown, KY, witness who recalls watching a hovering red ball that performed some extraordinary maneuvers about 10 p.m. on April 1, 2013.

 

The military veteran witness was standing outside talking on a cell phone when a “glowing red ball” was spotted to his northwest just hovering in the air.

 

“This was like nothing I had ever seen before,” the witness stated. “It made no noise, but seemed to agitate the dogs in my neighborhood as many of them started barking.”

 

And then the unusual-looking object did something even more unusual.

 

“The red ball/light object hovered for about 30 seconds and then abruptly broke into two identical red ball/light objects. Immediately after they separated both objects started to fly around erratically for approximately 15-20 seconds and then came back together forming one single object.”

 

The witness soon realized he was not alone.

 

“I was standing by myself when I first noticed the object, but as the sighting continued two of my neighbors from up the street came running down to my location to view the sighting. We stood in silence while the object continued to divide into two objects, fly around erratically, and then form back into one object.”

 

The object continued to repeat the maneuver.

"The red ball/light repeated this process three or four times before fading out. The only thing I could think of was that the object could have been was a UFO. Neither my neighbors nor myself had ever seen anything like that before and we were the only ones outside at the time of the incident. Ironically, I had never met these neighbors before and I have since moved from the location and have never have seen them again."

Another California report from the Los Angeles area - Case 54193 - describes a "fireball" type of light moving in a straight both about 11:29 p.m. on February 20, 2014.

In Case 54194, an Athens, Ohio, witness speculated that "star-like" moving overhead about 9 p.m. on February 20, 2014, might be drones.

"I was outside and I witnessed a yellow, star-like object flying slowly and not making a sound," the witness stated. "Then I saw another small, star-like object moving slowly after that one. There was a storm coming later on in the night and someone said that the local weather lab had drones up studying this storm before it hit at midnight last night."

Two often referenced MUFON cases where small red objects followed cars occurred in the Arizona desert in June 2011. See Fireball 'chases' Arizona couple through desert at ground level and Second case of red light reported chasing a car across Arizona desert.

MUFON STAR Team Manager Fletcher Gray, reached today in Texas, said that in addition to a military explanation, the field investigator must also look at Mother Nature.

"Some of these descriptions of hovering balls of light can also be compared to light associated with earthquakes," Gray said. "And then you also have ball lightning - another phenomena that must be taken into consideration."

Alexandra Witze, reporting in Scientific America January 3, 2014, stated, "A new catalog of earthquake lights—mysterious glows sometimes reported before or during seismic shaking—finds that they happen most often in geological rift environments, where the ground is pulling apart. The work is the latest to tackle the enigmatic lights, which have been described by eyewitnesses for centuries but are yet to be fully explained by scientists."

Elizabethtown, is a city in Hardin County, KY, population 29,335. Kentucky has a UFO Alert Rating of 5 with a low number of recent reports nationally. Kentucky had 8 UFO reports in January 2014 - the 22nd highest reporting state - while California had 102 reports - the highest reporting state in the nation.

You can read more details about other recently reported cases at the UFO Examiner home page.

The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please keep in mind that most UFO reports can be explained as something natural or man-made. If Kentucky MUFON investigates and reports back on this case, I will release an update. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.

CIGAR SHAPED ALIEN CRAFT SPOTTED OVER ASBURY NEW JERSEY

(Before It's News)

 OCTOBER 9, 2008   ……    ASBURY NEW JERSEY

I looked up to the sky for no real reason and thats when I saw it.  A white cigar-shaped object very high in the sky, probably at about 20,000 feet in altitude. The object was heading south/southeast and clearly had no wings. It was just a plain white cigar-shaped image with what looked like an aura of light around it.  After watching the object for about ten seconds it occurred to me that this was not a normal aircraft I was seeing so I grabbed my cell phone to see if I could take a picture of it. At this time the object had traversed only about a quarter of the visible sky and I thought it would take another 20 seconds or so before it would be out of sight. I looked down to pull up my cell phone camera and when I looked back at the sky the object was already gone! This was only a few seconds later and I wondered at how the object could have disappeared so quickly since it was still in the middle of the sky when I looked away. It should still be there, I thought. Either way, the object had vanished completely and was seen no more.A minute or so later a commercial jet was seen heading east. Even though I could see only the profile of the jet, the wings were clearly visible. This is the part that made me think that I really had seen something strange because when the other object passed directly over head, any wings on it should have been easy to see against the open sky, but there were none.  It was daylight when this sighting took place and no flashing lights were seen on the object, but the same could be said about the jet that followed. If the first object was a blimp, what was it doing so high in the sky and how could it have disappeared so suddenly? Beyond that, the object was moving much too quickly across the sky to have been a blimp or similar known flying object. Call me crazy if you must, but I think I just saw a UFO!  NOTE: The above image is a rendering.

The Filer Research Institute feels the scientific study of UFOs is for the benefit of humankind and is an important endeavor. The weekly intelligence report provides you with information on the latest sightings and UFO news that you need to understand the world situation.

In special reports, this week’s files cover: Minister of Defence Hellyer Claims We Shot Down UFOs, Space Storm Warning, Executive Directive to Sci/Tech Task Force "Prepare for Shifting Climate, MacArthur’s Quotes Were a Summation of his Statements, Indian Temple Vault B Not Opened, and Fastest Sermon Ever!!!

Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over: Arkansas, California, Florida, Maine, Mississippi, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, South Carolina, Texas and Washington.

Sightings of UFOs were also reported in: Argentina, Australia, Canada, Italy, Mexico, New Zealand, Puerto Rico, Spain, and England in the United Kingdom.

The purpose of these files is to report the UFO eyewitness and photo/video evidence that occurs on a daily basis around the world and in space. These Files assume that extraterrestrial intelligent life not only exists, but my hypothesis is that the over a thousand UFOs reported each month represent technologically advanced spacecraft conducting surveillance of Earth. I personally became interested in UFOs when London Control ordered me to intercept one over England while flying for the US Air Force. Under Project Blue Book, the US Air Force investigated UFOs for more than twenty years; and we continue this research.

 I believe the God of the universe has spread life throughout the cosmos and UFO's are visiting us in ever-increasing numbers.

Special Reports

Minister of Defence Hellyer Claims We Shot Down UFOs

The honorable Paul Hellyer, Canada’s former Minister of Defense appeared on the Russian TV with Sophie Shevardnadze to discuss extraterrestrials and UFOs. We have a long history of UFOs and of course there has been a lot more activity in the last few decades since we invented the atomic bomb,’ he said.

 They are very concerned about that and that we might use it again, because the whole cosmos as a unity, and it affects not just us but other people in the cosmos, they are very much afraid that we might be stupid enough to start using atomic weapons again.’

Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2535698/Aliens-walk-theyre-refusing-share-technology-change-warring-polluting-ways-claims-former-Canadian-defense-minister.html#ixzz2tdx2oe4o

 Hellyer has stated that “UFOs are as real as the airplanes that fly over your head.”

Shevardnadze asks Hellyer, “Why do you say that UFOs are as real as airplanes flying over our heads?” Hellyer responds, “Because I know that they are. As a matter of fact, they’ve been visiting our planet for thousands of years.”

Hellyer claims that UFOs have been downed by military action, and alien technology has been harnessed by Earthlings. He states that,

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 asks Hellyer if shooting down these UFOs is 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 responds, “I think it’s a possibility, but it’s a possibility especially if we shoot down every UFO that comes into our airspace without asking who they are and what they want. Right from the beginning we started scrambling planes, trying to shoot them down, but their technology was superior enough that we weren’t able to get away with it, certainly not for a long while. During that period of time they could have taken us over without any trouble if they wanted to, so I think, rather than developing our own Star Wars to protect ourselves against them, we should work with the benign species that are of a vast majority and work together, and rely largely on them, of course, and cooperate, so that we would be contributing something at the same time; I don’t think there’s any point in us developing a galactic force that would tempt us to ride on our own and get into mischief.”

“We spend too much money on military expenditures and not enough on feeding the poor and looking after the homeless and sick,’ he said.

‘They would like to work with us and teach us better ways but only, I think, with our consent. They don’t think we are good stewards of our planet.

'We are clear-cutting forests and polluting our rivers and our lakes. We are dumping sewage in the oceans. We are doing all sorts of things which are not what good stewards should be doing and they don’t like that.’

'Our future as a species, and here I mean all of the species in the world, is potentially at risk if we don’t figure what’s going on and work together to try and make life more amenable for all of us, and to work with our neighbors from other planets as well.'

Aliens are also responsible for some of our modern technology including the microchip, LED light and Kevlar vest, he said.

Hellyer said there has been a lot more activity with aliens in the last few decades since we invented the atomic bomb.

One of the technological advances that humans have aliens to thank for are Kevlar vests. Hellyer described one group as 'Short Greys' who have very slim arms and legs and are about five feet high with large heads. While Hellyer said he has never met an alien, but has seen a UFO near his cabin on Ontario’s Lake Muskoka.

Hellyer described several types of aliens including 'Tall Whites' who are working with the U.S. air force in Nevada. ‘They’re able to get away with that; they had a couple of their ladies dressed as nuns go into Las Vegas to shop and they weren’t detected,’ he claimed.

Another group of aliens are called ‘Short Greys’ who have very slim arms and legs and are about five feet high with large heads. A third group are called  'Nordic Blondes' and Hellyer said that if you meet one you’d probably say, 'I wonder if she’s from Denmark or somewhere.'

Space Storm Warning

The "Los Angeles Times" confirms that a storm warning was issued earlier this week for a space storm, that one such storm already struck the earth this week, but a larger one is expected. Storm warning has been issued for space, where a "cannibal" coronal mass ejection grabbed the attention of space-weather watchers.

The sun -- at a peak of activity in the 11-year solar cycle -- hurled a pair of CMEs that reached Earth early Saturday morning. The ejections, as NASA's Alex Young says, "are a huge release of solar material, billions of tons, and magnetic field."  Upon reaching Earth, they can wreak havoc with our power grid -- and, on the bright side, create gorgeous auroras.

According to the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) dozens of transformers atop electrical power poles and other transformers inside electrical sub-stations in Melbourne Australia, suddenly burst into flames during the night.  Tens of thousands of customers are presently without electric in parts of Melbourne.  HERE

Three ejections were forecast for the weekend. The one that hit Earth was a "cannibal" CME, as SpaceWeather.com put it. There was no geomagnetic storm from the impact, Space Weather noted. "These CMEs are relatively minor and slow," Young said, "but evidence supports another impact soon. So this could mean that we will have another impact later today or early tomorrow."

 The forecast from NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center is for a moderate geomagnetic storm.

A geomagnetic storm is a temporary disturbance of the Earth's magnetosphere caused by a solar wind shock wave and/or cloud of magnetic field which interacts with the Earth's magnetic field.

There are two more sunspot groups which are also rotating along the Sun's central meridian. Sunspots 1977 and 1976 present delta-eta configuration indicating the potential for X-class and M-class flares.
Events from these groups will also be Earth directed for the next 72+ hours

Over the weekend thirteen M-class flares were released from one sunspot during 48 hours and more are expected. Sunspot 1974 is large and is situated along the central meridian of the Sun, as a result solar events will be Earth directed.

There are two more sunspot groups which are also rotating along the Sun's central meridian. Sunspots 1977 and 1976 present delta-eta configuration indicating the potential for X-class and M-class flares. Events from these groups could flare up in the future.

STORM WARNING, CANCELED: A brief geomagnetic storm on Feb. 15th sparked by a CME impact has petered out. The CME appears to have been a merger of three minor clouds that, even together, could not cause a sustained disturbance in Earth's magnetic field. After days of nonstop activity, big sunspot AR1974 is quieting reducing the chance for an X-classflare.

http://www.latimes.com/science/sciencenow/la-sn-solar-flares-reach-earth-20140215,0,3449253.story#ixzz2tan63Of6

The book " Severe Space Weather Events — Understanding Societal and Economic Impacts,"  describes the consequences of solar flares unleashing waves of energy that could disrupt Earth’s magnetic field, overwhelming high-voltage transformers with vast electrical currents and short-circuiting energy grids. Such a catastrophe would cost the United States "$1 trillion to $2 trillion in the first year," concluded the panel, and "full recovery could take 4 to 10 years." That would, of course, be just a fraction of global damages.  Good-bye, civilization. Thanks to NASA

'RADIOACTIVE' ERUPTION: On Feb. 17th at 04:50 UT, a magnetic filament erupted from the sun's western limb. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory captured this high-resolution image of the blast. Because of its location on the sun's western limb, the eruption did not send a CME toward Earth. However, there was an effect on our planet: Shortwave radio loudspeakers roared with static, an event called a Type II radio burst. Unlike Earth and other solid objects, the entire Sun doesn't rotate at the same rate. Because the Sun is not solid, but is instead a giant ball of gas and plasma, different parts of the Sun spin at different rates.

We can tell how quickly the surface of the Sun is rotating by observing the motion of structures, such as sunspots, on the Sun's visible surface. The regions of the Sun near its equator rotate once every 25 days. The Sun's rotation rate decreases with increasing latitude, so that its rotation rate is slowest near its poles. At its poles the Sun rotates once every 36 days! The sun’s intense solar activity usually occurs away from aiming at Earth, but some day a powerful electromagnetic flare could cause havoc on Earth. Worse yet, the next period of intense solar activity is expected, and coincides with the presence of an unusually large hole in Earth’s geomagnetic shield.

Executive Directive to Sci/Tech Task Force "Prepare for Shifting Climate

 In a speech delivered yesterday by President Obama indicates a distinct shift from global warming advocates. "We have to be clear: A changing climate means that weather-related disasters like droughts, wildfires, storms, floods are potentially going to be costlier and they're going to be harsher," Obama said on Feb. 14th during a visit to farmers in central California. The President's initiative will work with scientists and tech innovators focused on how changes in weather patterns are going to have an impact up and down the United States. US president states:
"Not just on the coast but inland as well - and how do we start preparing for such events."

MacArthur’s Quotes Were a Summation of his Statements.

Israel Curiel, Public Relations Director, Mutual UFO Network NC writes, “Let me first say that I really enjoy reading your emails every week. I had read about the quote from McArthur and wanted to find a link online so that I could share it on MUFON-NC.com. Unfortunately I found that McArthur never said, ‘"The nations of the world will have to unite for the next war will be an interplanetary war.

The nations of Earth must someday make a common front against attack by people from other planets"’  You can read the full explanation here:” at  http://www.snopes.com/quotes/macarthur.asp.

Snopes.com writes: This item is a difficult one to classify: It's literally false as worded, because the person named didn't speak the specific words attributed to him. However, by combining things the same person said at different times and places, one could come up with a reasonable approximation of the original statement.

The quote attributed to a 1955 West Point address by General of the Army Douglas MacArthur, about the next war being an interplanetary one, is cited in a variety of works and web sites related to UFOs and extraterrestrials and still surfaces in newspapers and other publications. However, MacArthur did not deliver a speech at West Point that year, nor is there any record of his specifically stating an opinion that the "next war" would be an "interplanetary" one.

The confusion starts with comments reportedly made by MacArthur when he was paid a private visit at his residence in New York's Waldorf-Astoria Hotel by the Mayor of Naples, Achille Lauro, in October 1955. Mayor Lauro relayed the gist of their 45-minute conversation to the press, maintaining MacArthur had expressed a belief that someday the people of Earth might find themselves facing an extraterrestrial confrontation.

General MacArthur described himself as "a confirmed optimist" regarding the possibility of another world war, Mayor Lauro said. "He thinks that another war would be double suicide and that there is enough sense on both sides of the Iron Curtain to avoid it," the Mayor went on.
"He believes that because of the developments of science all the countries on earth will have to unite to survive and to make a common front against attack by people from other planets."

The politics of the future will be cosmic, or interplanetary, in General MacArthur's opinion, the Mayor continued. He quoted the military leader as saying that a thousand years from now today's civilization would appear as obsolete as the Stone Age.

According to Lauro, the only comments MacArthur made about the next war were that he had no idea what form it would take:

"He quoted Einstein's reply when asked what weapons would be used in a third world war — that he did not know what weapons would be used in a third world war but that a fourth global conflict would be fought with sticks and stones."

Some newspapers (such as the Chicago Tribune) played up the sensational aspects of Mayor Lauro's remarks, reproducing only a brief portion of them under headlines like "MacARTHUR FEARS SPACE WAR."

 Several years later, on 12 May 1962, MacArthur delivered a speech (commonly known as the "Duty, Honor, Country" Speech) to the cadets of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point on the occasion of his receiving the Sylvanus Thayer Award, during which he once again alluded to the possibility that mankind might someday face an extraterrestrial foe:

We deal now, not with things of this world alone, but with the illimitable distances and as yet unfathomed mysteries of the universe. We are reaching out for a new and boundless frontier. We speak in strange terms of harnessing the cosmic energy, of making winds and tides work for us, of creating unheard of synthetic materials to supplement or even replace our old standard basics; to purify sea water for our drink; of mining ocean floors for new fields of wealth and food; of disease preventatives to expand life into the hundreds of years; of controlling the weather for a more equitable distribution of heat and cold, of rain and shine; of spaceships to the moon; of the primary target in war, no longer limited to the armed forces of an enemy, but instead to include his civil populations; of ultimate conflict between a united human race and the sinister forces of some other planetary galaxy; of such dreams and fantasies as to make life the most exciting of all times. (Most of his predictions have
occurred.)

So, General Douglas MacArthur did suggest the notion of an eventual interplanetary war on at least a couple of occasions; one of them was in 1955, and one of them was during a speech at West Point. But he never stated it would be the "next war" fought on (or by) Earth, or that it was likely to happen in any timeframe outside the very distant future.

Indian Temple Vault B Not Opened

Serena Wright Taylor writes, “I spent twenty years in Vedic studies and practice and many years of UFO research, therefore I was excited to read about the possible Vimana discovered in Vault B at the Padmanabhaswamy Temple in South India. However, we have tracked the announcement to a fake news web site called ‘The Sage’. They are skilled at creating news that is not true!  The temple, ancient vaults and
some treasure as shown do in fact exist and the discovery and opening of the other vaults as well. I have been following the original story. Vault B is protected spiritually and if opened should only be done with special sacred ceremony by qualified Brahmins. A suspected UFO has not been found but we will see!” Thanks to Serena Wright Taylor

Sightings in the United States

Alabama Missing Time

 Bay Minette -- I was returning from regularly traveled four hour (round trip) car trip when I felt suddenly ill so I stopped to get some fresh air. While stopped, I decided to make some long exposure photos since I'm a semi-professional photographer. I took photos for an hour that seemed completely uneventful. When I arrived at home I was shocked when I realized it was much later than I thought and I cannot account for at least one and a half hours of time. It was my perception that I drove straight through, stopped for an hour and then drove the remaining 45 minutes home.
However, the total time of the trip amounted to closer to 7 hours than 5. Later,
I reviewed the photos and I observed some strange effects. I found no equipment issues at all. I increased the exposure that revealed what appears to be a craft with four lights. Upon this discovery I increased the exposure on the other photos and discovered several more objects. I did not hear or observe any of these objects at the time. All photos were taken using a tripod and the DSLR.
Many/most shots exposed properly and I've been unable to find an explanation for why some photos, only the ones with anomalies, seem to indicate a complete disregard for the control settings of the camera. (snip) Thanks to MUFON CMS

Arkansas Light

Wasilla -- My mother and I were returning home  and I was in the passenger seat of the car on February 5, 2014. I looked up and saw a large glowing red object in the clear sky. It was apparent that it was not a star due to the size and brightness. The object was stationary and slowly changed color from red to a lava-like red-orange and back to red again twice before my mother stopped the car and I took a photo. Once I got out it seemed that the lights from the car down the street  made it harder for me to get a decent shot without glare, but I tried anyway. I snapped a few photos and then it dimmed and disappeared, as if it was traveling very fast straight backwards.

My mother and father had seen a couple of these objects a few nights prior.
This is my best shot I got of the object.

Thanks to MUFON CMS

California Orbs

Sacramento – On February 10, 2014, I was parking my car when I thought I had seen an orange meteor. It then separated into three red lights dancing around each other flying quickly through the skies. The lights zigzagged and then disappeared. I managed to record a few seconds.. I also came across an individual who also saw it and captured an amazing light show.

Perhaps it could have been a new stealth air craft? But to move that quickly
you will have to break the sound barrier which causes a sonic boom loud enough to hear. I have been seeing these lights since I have moved to Sacramento.
Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com

Florida Light

Key West – I was watching the big red light using the telephone lines to see movement and found it was moving slowly NE on February 14, 2014. I then saw about seven smaller lights moving together from the ocean side very slowly and together in coordination as in a staggered angular format. I ran in to get the camera and came out to find most were gone and the last few smaller lights were beginning to turn grey and blink out. The camera shutter would not take a picture. I have used it all day today with no problems. The big red light was left alone and no longer moving. It then turned grayish and blinked out.

Thanks to MUFON CMS

Note: I personally took this picture of the sunset at Key West, but didn’t see the red lights. Although my wife and her sister saw two high flying cylinders leaving short white trails.

Maine Triangle

Frankfort -- I was at my grandfather’s grave taking pictures on July 10, 2013. I was with my mother and brother and had my camera and was able to take a couple pictures on a partly cloudy day. I've been sitting on the pictures for a while because I didn't want to come off as crazy.
I looked up  and just before the cloud line I saw this object and took pictures as it disappeared into the clouds. It was a triangle and as it moved farther away you could see what appears to be a wall in the back of something that looked like it had very little depth.

Thanks to MUFON CMS

Mississippi Light

hernando -- I was at a friend’s place having some drinks on the patio when I noticed an orange light peak over a distant neighbor’s house on February 15, 2014. Our first thought was a lantern so we just watched it float across the sky and as it neared the clouds it vanished. It looked like a small flashing orange dot. Five minutes later another one appeared from the same spot and went the same direction as the last.
This time we decided to take pictures of a white orb and captured the picture I have now.

Thanks to MUFON CMS

Note: These may be Chinese Lanterns

 Nevada Disc and Orb

Las Vegas – The witness took pictures from Excalibur Hotel with his cell phone on a negative setting and captured a disc shaped UFO as well as a helicopter. Being a helicopter buff he was shooting at one while hearing its engines. He decided to take a photo of the helicopter in a negative setting on his cell phone. A second photo was taken
three seconds later with regular settings, but was a little too late to catch the chopper or the UFO.

Note: I am not sure what settings that the witness used to taken the cell phone photo. The second photo under “normal settings” was taken that does not show the UFO nor any helicopters. Thanks to William Puckett,
Director http://www.UFOsnw.com

DAYTON – The witness was going to work at about 6:20 am on February 1, 2014 and noticed a bright light behind the mountain. It looked triangular in shape, but the brightness made it hard to observe. The object started to rise horizontally very slowly. When he got to work 20 minutes later the object was at an altitude of roughly 2000 feet high shining brightly.

Thanks to MUFON CMS

New Hampshire Triangle

Gilford – On February 16, 2014, my friend and I took our tripods and DSLR cameras and decided to take some pictures of the night sky over the Belknap Range.  I saw the lights in the first picture I took at 7:30 pm, but it was a bit blurry, so I focused and took another picture. It took about 15 seconds to take the second picture. The lights were behind the clouds but my camera can pick up stars behind the clouds, so I believe the UFO was behind the clouds hovering. I took a third picture and the green lights were still there but without changing settings I took a fourth picture and the lights were gone. If lens flare caused the lights, it would have showed up in the fourth picture since I did not change positions or any settings on the camera. My dog was constantly growling very low and quiet looking at the sky.

Thanks to MUFON CMS

New Jersey Triangle

Port Monmouth -- I saw a bright triangular outline of lights with a bright light on top of it. It stood still in the air until I took a picture, then it's proceeded to move in the direction I was in. It was not a plane and I was very scared, and could not get a good picture because I was shaking, and hyperventilating. I drove home to get my dad and brother went back to location but object was gone.

 New York “Astronomer Witness UFOs

Syracuse University’s Holden Observatory
-- On the winter’s night of February 20, 1947, five months before the famous Roswell UFO incident, two classmates of Syracuse University along with an astronomer reportedly witnessed strange elliptical or circular objects crossing across the horizon, covering the stars as they passed at tremendous speed. The two classmates were walking around 10:15 PM on the school campus and noticing that the dome doors of Holden Observatory were open so they entered. They noticed a 7-foot long refracting telescope that being used by a man who walked it back and forth rapidly in the length of the dome opening.

When the astronomer noticed the two students as they climbed the platform, he was thanking God that the two were there. The astronomer told the two students that he had been witnessing something unusual in the night sky. He then let the students take a look what he’d been watching without giving them a clue. He was in awe of the bright star field and then noticed a light passed his view in the dark sky. He then observed more after 20 or 30 seconds. He counted twelve mysterious lights. After being puzzled of what he had seen, he then gave the telescope to his pal. After a few minutes, his pal looked as puzzled as him and the astronomer. The three men agreed that they had seen the same objects. The three men were able to witness the details of these objects through the telescope. They all witnessed the same objects that appeared to have a grayish bottom, slightly lighter than the dark sky background. The objects had thin bright yellow orange trailing edge which appeared slightly rippling. All men noted that some of the objects appeared to be brighter than others. The astronomer assured the students that he had never seen anything like the mysterious objects. After a couple of minutes, the students bid the astronomer a good night. That was the first and only time they met the astronomer.

Ohio Triangle

Waynesville -- I was turning onto 42 from Lebanon and I notice a very bright blinking lights straight down the road on February 18, 2014. I keep driving 3-4 miles down 42 and I notice that it hasn't moved at all. It’s a mile away floating about 4,000 feet above the bikepath that runs across the street in Corwin. I can see 2/3 very noticeable lights on the front along with a semi-steady green on the back of it.
Through the middle of Waynesville I'm stopped at a red light and I'm watching it start to slowly move heading south. I got a clear view of the outline of a dark black/silver triangle shape, the people behind me in traffic were watching it too. As I'm driving past it I open my sunroof to get a better view and it looked as if it were slowly ascending. Once I passed it I didn't see it again. One of my friends had coincidentally uploaded a picture of a nearly identical looking triangle UFO in our area about half a year ago,

South Carolina Craft

 Columbia -- There were several orbs close together and some stayed together while a few of them went off on their own on February 16, 2014. They would disappear and then end back up where we first saw them. No noise, a little windy out, very high cloud cover. I used a Canon SX160 IS 16X to take the pictures. I had to have on highest zoom to capture one on site. Looks like a craft of some sort.

Thanks to MUFON CMS

Texas Light

huntsville -- The very bright object first appeared on January 27, 2014, at 6:30 AM, in the east/southeastern sky.,It never moved and we watched it until the clouds covered it. This morning, the same object was at the same location with the same white on top, blue ring and amber bottom.
There was some loud "animal" screaming inthe national forest when I first saw it. We watched it until the sun came up when it was still visible and then clouds rolled in and covered it... much as they did in the first sighting.
Thanks to MUFON CMS

Washington flying Object

Spokane -- On February 5, 2014, I was awoken to a loud sound like the after burners of a rocket. The noise was coming from above and shook our house. I am very familiar with the noises planes make when they travel over our home because I grew up around airplanes as my dad was a pilot. The noise startled me because I never ever had heard anything like that before in our area.

I got up looked out our large 2nd floor bay window to see an object that was changing colors as it floated west.
My husband and son also witnessed the beautiful emerald green object, that changed to red, blue, orange and white. We were so surprised to see a UFOright in front us as it traveled slowly west towards Seattle.

None of our cameras were working and a helicopter almost as big approached the object but backed off. It was an amazing beautiful object that we watched for 44 minutes and are believers! Its noise awoken me again at about 2:00 AM. We felt very blessed to see such a site, and we now are believers in UFO's. Thanks to Peter Davenport Director www.UFOCenter.com

Australia Triangle and Lights

Broadbeach Waters, Gold Coast, Queensland -- At 1.30 am, I heard a massive crack and than a sound like something metal and massive was being dragged somewhere. Then a big crack and two bright green lights lit up the sky around my home on February 4th 2014. My daughter also heard and saw this. It is unlikely any weather related phenomenon was the cause.
Thanks to John Hayes

Tarneit, Victoria – I was coming home from work driving on Derrimut Road going over a small railway bridge on February 7th 2014, at 6:15 am, when I saw a small dark and had a bright blue laser light falling from sky. It was unlike a plane falling but not in straight line. I called my wife and brother in law, but they missed it.
Now, I’m very curious about UFOs. www.UFOinfo.com

Sydney, New South Wales -- I was in Taylor Square and noticed an object approaching from above Garden Island Naval Base on February 9th 2014, at 9:39 PM. It was a three cornered gunmetal grey triangular object with a red projection on top at one end. It rotated in an anticlockwise direction.

I asked a pedestrian, “Can you tell me what that is?”' she looked and said no. We crossed Ox Street and I pointed it out to another person on a phone, they started telling person on phone, “We are watching a UFO.” The craft passed above me at an altitude of 1100 feet.  I used to skydive so I have some experience at judging height. It continued south for 75-90 seconds in the flight path for the airport. www.UFOinfo.com

PARALOWIE, ADELAIDE --At 9.45 PM, I saw whatlooked to be a star falling with sparkler like lights trailing behind it on February 2nd 2014.
It disappeared for a couple of seconds and then reappeared and then slowly faded away. It reappeared 12 times in a slightly different spot with a bright ring
around it. www.UFOinfo.com

Canada Light and Sphere

Courtenay, straight of Georgia -- I was out on the deck, overlooking the water looking northeast across the Straight of Georgia when a bright light in the clouds flickered on February 7, 2014. It stayed on for five minutes, stopped for five minutes then flickered back on. While this was going on a smaller craft was flying across the Straight of Georgia, east to west. As it approached the larger object the smaller crafts lights (2 or 3) would fade out and as it flew away from the larger object. The smaller craft would light up again. Attached is a blurry video which could possibly determine the size of the object, I could not make out the smaller craft in the video.
Thanks to MUFON CMS

Victoria BC -- The speed of the objects was rather slow, so I was able to use my smart phone to take two pictures on February 11, 2014. They didn't flicker and were a steady red. The first object was very high when I saw it but the objects in second sightings were low and then climbed flying west silently into the cloud cover. If I go by how bright those lights were it would have been impossible not to hear at least one of those objects. Three other people saw the second sighting at the same time I did. Their reaction was rather surprising. Instead of taking the time to look at the objects they "laughed them away." Thanks to Peter Davenport Director www.UFOCenter.com

India Tennis Ball Burning Object

Basavanagudi, Bangalore, Karnataka – A burning object the size of a tennis ball passed from one end of the horizon to another heading west on February 7th 2014, at 8.30 pm. We saw a red light twice passing west silently just below the moon that then vanished. But I'm very sure it was not a comet or meteorite. First we saw it ascending vertically then passing through the sky. Later we checked newspapers and TV channels but there was no such news,

Mexico Light

Rosarito beach -- Sitting on my balcony I suddenly saw in the sky a bright orange light with a yellow center. It hovered near a small star and gave the impression it was moving in a go in and out motion It didn't fade it just disappeared after a minute. Thanks to MUFON CMS

New Zealand Triangle

Avonhead, Christchurch, Canterbury --
I woke to see a star a blinking red, blue, white, and sometimes amber on February 3rd 2014 from 11.30 PM to 1.30 AM. It was stationary and the largest thing in the sky like an aircraft coming into land, but it just hovered. I got out of bed and stared in amazement for twenty minutes and watched in disbelief. I woke the misses up to confirm what I was looking at. I studied it for an hour as it disappeared into a tiny speck in the sky like it was traveling away. All the time it blinked in random white and red and blue lights.

Puerto-Rico UFO:

Paranormal investigator Joshua P. Warren joined the show in the last hour to report on a new UFO flap in Puerto Rico. Video footage shot in the Bay of Boqueron shows a craft that has a cigar-like shape, which suddenly appeared.

Spain Green UFO

Jerez -- I was driving home from work on February 3, 2014, and it was already dark when I saw a greenish bright object moving at a fast speed in the sky. It seemed to have a trail like a comet and for a split second the green ufo stopped in mid air. it exploded, or more precisely it seemed bigger for a split second, as if it had slow down or maybe everything slowed temporarily. Then what seemed to be and smaller greenish flying object moved in what seemed like at an angle from initial trajectory. Everything happened really fast and I was driving but it wad perfectly clear in the sky.

WHITBY – My family and I went to Whitby 28 October 2007 for the Goth Weekend. I had a new Olympus E330 with which I took three photos on the top of Whitby Cliffs (next to the Abbey) to stitch together for a panorama. Christmas week that year I opened the photo on my PC full size and was astonished to see two cylinder shaped UFOs just below the clouds. There have never been any similar entities on photos and I know that they are not any form of lens flare.
When you zoom in on the Photo you can see that the cylinders are lighter on top and darker underneath.
There was no sound and I did not see them when I took the photo

'Grote Piramide gebouwd door inwoners van Atlantis'

Twee amateurarcheologen uit Duitsland verzamelden in de Grote Piramide in Egypte bewijs waaruit zou blijken dat het klassieke wereldwonder door inwoners van de legendarische stad Atlantis is gebouwd.

In april 2013 kregen Dominique Görlitz en Stefan Erdmann toegang tot delen van de piramide die normaal zijn afgesloten voor publiek.

Ze smokkelden de bewijsstukken mee naar Duitsland en waren van plan een documentaire te maken over hun zoektocht. Het tweetal nam verschillende voorwerpen mee, waaronder delen van een cartouche van farao Cheops. Een cartouche is een omcirkeling van de naam van Egyptische koningen en koninginnen in hiërogliefen.

Vastgehouden

In november verscheen een trailer van de documentaire op YouTube. Nadat het nieuws naar buiten was gekomen publiceerde de Duitse ambassade in Caïro een verklaring waarin werd benadrukt dat de ambassade en het Duits Archeologisch Instituut afstand namen van het werk van Görlitz en Erdmann.

De twee Duitse amateurarcheologen en hun cameraman worden nu vastgehouden, evenals zes Egyptenaren, enkele bewakers en inspecteurs van het Egyptische ministerie van Oudheden die de mannen toegang verleenden. Ze lopen de kans te worden veroordeeld.

De meeste onderzoekers beweren dat de piramide rond 2500 voor Christus is gebouwd, maar anderen - waaronder Görlitz en Erdmann -  stellen al geruime tijd dat de cartouche van Cheops nep is. Zij zeggen dat kolonel Howard Vyse de cartouche in 1837 zelf heeft geschilderd om de financiering van toekomstige expedities veilig te stellen.

Dateren

Görlitz en Erdmann willen het pigment dat is gebruikt voor de cartouche laten dateren door de Universiteit van Dresden. Ze hopen aan de hand van het pigment aan te kunnen tonen dat de Grote Piramide is gebouwd door een beschaving die vele malen ouder is dan de Egyptenaren.

Afgelopen december verontschuldigden Görlitz en Erdmann zich per brief aan het Egyptische ministerie van Oudheden voor de schade aan de piramide. Ze boden aan de schade te betalen en benadrukten dat het nooit hun intentie was om de piramide te beschadigen. Minister van Oudheden Mohamed Ibrahim heeft de excuses in eerste instantie niet aanvaard.

 "Entre 20 h et 20 h 30, le soir du 13 mars 1997, durant mon second mandat de gouverneur de l’Arizona, j’ai été témoin de quelque chose qui défiait la logique et mettait en question ma perception de la réalité : un vaisseau massif, en forme de delta, naviguant silencieusement au-dessus de Squaw Peak, dans le parc montagneux proche de Phœnix." Pour d'autres témoignages, voir mon article sur mon blog :

Daily 2 Cents: Minister Begs for Big UFO Reveal — Strange Intruder — Ghosts Haunt School

(Before It's News)

Farrakhan Begs for Big UFO Reveal

During the final installment of his year-long sermon series “Time and What Must Be Done,” The Minister Louis Farrakhan called on President Barack Obama to “open up Area 51,” a government location known for sparking conspiracy theories surrounding aliens and UFO landings.

“President Barack Obama, call the scientists. Open up Area 51 to the scientists to the world, because you America are the leader that Allah God has raised and made you powerful that he might make himself known through you,” Farrakhan said. “And if America calls the scientists of the earth to such place, they will respond.”

The Nation of Islam leader said that calling “the scientists” to the location would “show them the sign of the presence of God to right the wrongs of the earth and heal it.”

Farrakhan maintained that Obama would place the “shadow government” — a coalition that is purportedly “controlled by the global elite” and has seemingly veiled Area 51 and UFOs in secrecy — in danger of being exposed if he complies.

The faith leader believes that this secretive government force has hidden the presence of UFOs from American presidents and the public alike for decades. This includes The Mother Wheel, a massive spaceship that he believes remains in orbit and will eventually rescue Nation of Islam adherents from earth.

“The scientists all over the earth will know, especially through the clarity of our voice and what they see that God is present and that we whom they have destroyed would not have this knowledge if it did not come from the highest of sources,” Farrakhan continued. “We believe our words that we have shared on the presence of the Wheel could help the president and America to avert Allah’s warning of chastisement and destruction if America does not bow down.”

Farrakhan said that this “shadow government,” which his outlet, Final Call, recently described in detail, could lead to the destruction of America if the truth is contained. So by opening up Area 51, he seemingly believes that this chaos can be averted.

As TheBlaze has reported, Farrakhan spoke about this spaceship theology during a 2011 speech:

“The final thing is the destruction. The Honorable Elijah Muhammad told us of a giant Mother Plane that is made like the universe, spheres within spheres. White people call them unidentified flying objects (UFOs). Ezekiel, in the Old Testament, saw a wheel that looked like a cloud by day, but a pillar of fire by night. The Hon. Elijah Muhammad said that that wheel was built on the island of Nippon, which is now called Japan, by some of the original scientists. It took 15 billion dollars in gold at that time to build it. It is made of the toughest steel. America does not yet know the composition of the steel used to make an instrument like it. It is a circular plane, and the Bible says that it never makes turns. Because of its circular nature it can stop and travel in all directions at speeds of thousands of miles per hour. He said there are 1,500 small wheels in this Mother Wheel, which is a half mile by-a-half-mile. This Mother Wheel is like a small human built planet. Each one of these small planes carry three bombs.”

It’s unclear how Area 51 relates to the Mother Wheel theory, aside from the notion that both themes involve UFOs and extraterrestrial theories.

In other recent theological proclamations, Farrakhan indicated that the U.S. government has known about the Mother Wheel since the 1940s, but has gone to great lengths to keep the information a secret.

Earlier this month, Farrakhan also issued a fiery message to Pope Francis, challenging the pontiff and “all lovers of Jesus” to “a showdown.” – Read more at TheBlaze

Strange Intruder

Berkeley, CA – unedited: Just something confusing that Ive wanted to share – anyone else had such an encounter would love to do hypnotic recall of… What Happened Asleep in home in hills above Berkeley. Attached bathroom on my room had bathtub with picture window over it leading to yard. Summer. I always left bathroom window open. 5 large watchdogs in yard woke me up barking frantically. Went to see what was up. Put knee up on window sill and leaned out to look at dogs barking on my right. they were barking AT something to my left. Looked to left and saw intruder. The event and my responses happened fast – but in words – first impression intruder – put me on the offensive – whos there Then started taking in the figure- standing with back to me and head down – long black cape. Made me wonder -huh Then lifted head and turned to look over shoulder at me. BEAUTIFUL, angelic face with lovely blond hair. I thought, Oh, Its just a Boy like 14-16yrs old. But weird…And then met its eyes – green – and Cold and LOVELESS and heartless and frightening. I was utterly paralyzed and lost consciousness. Woke up in the morning in my bed – as though straight from the moment ofencounter – went FLYIING out of bed – thinking that was NOT a dream – and ranback to the bathroom. My only evidence was that the bathroom window was now closed – and I knew it was open when I went to bed. I also KNEW this hadactually happened – was not a dream I was afraid to go anywhere, even to the bathroom, without my dog for a LONGtime after that. I was TERRIFIED. Didnt want to be left alone etc. have no idea if this fits the bill for your reports… but there it is all the same. – MUFON CMS

Ghosts Haunt School

Students from a popular Corporate Area high school say that evil spirits from a nearby cemetery have been plaguing their place of learning.

THE STAR was told that so familiar are the ghosts, that they do regular visits and call students by their names.

“Di duppy dem call five a wi name and even di teacher it go inna. Dem write with blood inna di bathroom mirror and di other day di duppy come back two different times and all sprain our teacher foot,” one of the students said

Our news team got confirmation from residents of a community close to the school that the institution is built near to a popular cemetery.

“Yea man, a real ting. Don’t mek me tell you, jus go by the school and mek di students dem tell you what’s going on,” a woman from the nearby community said.

The group of second-form students said one of the ghosts in particular, who is known as ‘Pamela’, is very popular among them and when she appears, she calls them by their names.

“Di duppy tell me dat it ago kill me and kill off me family and any how me eat anymore cupcakes, it ago poison me. A we form teacher sell di cupcake dem. Di duppy thump me inna my belly and me vomit froth. A nuh joking ting,” another student said.

It is reported that Pamela, who was a student at the school, died in a confrontation with another pupil.

“Di girl dem inna di bathroom a fix up make-up and one of di girls jump up and a cuss bare bad words, when dem ask her what happen she started to cry and curse words. Dem call di teacher and she drop down and di duppy and di teacher at it. Di friend drop down and her body start get heavy,” one of the students said.

When THE STAR approached a teacher, she was not as quick to share information.

“Oh my, I am a sceptic person about my school, and where my class is around the back, I know how news can go. I don’t think it’s prudent for me to discuss it with you,”

Meanwhile, the principal of the school referred our news team to the vice-principal, who told THE STAR that she is not going to comment on the matter. – Jamaica-Star

Vanished Over Lake  - DEEL I

(Before It's News)

On the evening of November 23, 1953, an Air Force radar controller was alerted to an “unidentified target” over Lake Superior, and an F-89C Scorpion jet was scrambled from Kinross AFB. Radar controllers watched as the F-89 closed in on the UFO, and then sat stunned in amazement as the two blips merged on the screen, and the UFO left. The F-89 and it’s two man crew, pilot Felix Moncla and radar operator Robert Wilson, were never found, even after a thorough search of the area.

The channel that connects Lake Superior with the other Great Lakes flows through the Soo Locks near Saulte Ste. Marie, Michigan. On one side of the channel is the U.S., and on the other side is Canada. The fact that this area is on a U.S. national border makes it a restricted airspace. As such, it was monitored by the Air Defense Command in 1953.

On the evening of 23 November 1953, an Air Defense Command Ground Intercept radar controller at Truax AFB became alerted to an “unidentified target” over Soo Locks. He sounded the alert, and an F-89C Scorpion jet was scrambled from nearby Kinross Field. The jet was piloted by 1st Lieutenant Felix Moncla, Jr., with 2nd Lieutenant Robert Wilson in the rear seat as radar operator.

Ground Control vectored the jet toward the target, noting that the target changed course as the F-89 approached it at over 500 mph. Lt. Wilson had problems tracking the target on his onboard radar, so ground control continued to direct the jet to the target. For thirty minutes, the jet pursued the radar blip and began to close the gap as the UFO accelerated out over Lake Superior.

As Ground Control watched, the gap between the two blips on the radar screen grew smaller and smaller until the two blips became one blip. Ground Control thought that Moncla had flown over the target and that the two blips would separate again as he moved past it.

That didn’t happen. Suddenly, the single blip flashed off the screen and the radar screen was clear of any return at all.

Frantically, Ground Control tried to contact the F-89 by radio. There was no response. Marking the last radar position, Ground Control dispatched an emergency message to Search and Rescue. That last sighting was about seventy miles off Keweenaw Point in upper Michigan, at an altitude of 8,000 feet, approximately 160 miles northwest of Soo Locks.

After an all night air/sea rescue search, not a trace of the plane or the men was ever found. No debris, no oil slick, nothing was ever found.

Officials at Norton Air Force Base Flying Safety Division issued a statement that “the pilot probably suffered from vertigo and crashed into the lake.” However, this was merely speculation and was based on hearsay reports that Moncla was prone to vertigo.

The Air Force explained the unknown radar target at first as a Canadian DC-3, then later as a RCAF jet. Canadian officials responded that there were no Canadian aircraft in the airspace over the lake at any time during the chase. The Air Force finally stated that the F-89 had exploded at high altitude, ignoring the fact that this would have left a lot of debris on the lake surface.

NICAP investigators found that mentions of Moncla’s mission – chasing an unidentified target – had been obliterated from official records. Project Bluebook files simply listed the case as an “accident.”

Off the record, those that were present in the Ground Control radar room that day have expressed other opinions. They think that whatever the F-89 was chasing directly caused the disappearance of the jet. – Loy Lawhon, About.com

Kinross AFB/F-89 Disappearance
November 23, 1953

On the night of November 23, 1953, an Air Defense Command radar detected an unidentified “target” over Lake Superior. Kinross Air Force Base, closest to the scene, alerted the 433rd Fighter Interceptor Squadron at Truax Field, Madison, Wisconsin, and an F-89C all-weather interceptor was scrambled. Radar operators watched the “blips” of the UFO and the F-89 merge on their scopes, in an apparent collision, and disappear. No trace of the plane was ever found.

U S Air Force accident-report records indicate that the F-89 was vectored west northwest, then west, climbing to 30,000 feet. At the controls were First Lieutenant Felix E. Moncla, Jr.; his radar observer was Second Lieutenant Robert L. Wilson. While on a westerly course, they were cleared to descend to 7,000 feet, turning east-northeast and coming steeply down on the known target from above. The last radar contact placed the interceptor at 8,000 feet, 70 miles off Keeweenaw Point, and about 150 miles northwest of Kinross AFB (now Kincheloe AFB).

The incident is not even labeled as a “UFO” case in Air Force records; instead, it was investigated by air-safety experts. There were several layers of scattered clouds (one with bottoms at 5,000 to 8,000 feet) and some snow flurries in the general area. Official records state, however, that the air was stable and there was little or no turbulence.

The Air Force later stated that the “UFO” turned out to be a Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) C-47 “On a night flight from Winnipeg, Manitoba, to Sudbury, Ontario Canada.” The F-89 apparently had crashed for unknown reasons after breaking off the intercept. In answer to queries from the NATIONAL INVESTIGATIONS COMMITTEE ON AERIAL PHENOMENA (NICAP) in 1961 and again in 1963, RCAF spokesmen denied that one of their planes was involved. Squadron Leader W. B. Totman, noting that the C-47 was said to be on a flight plan over Canadian territory, said “… this alone would seem to make such an intercept unlikely.”

The Air Force suggested that “… the pilot probably suffered from vertigo and crashed into the take.” Harvard University astronomer and UFO debunker Dr. Donald H. MENZEL accepted this explanation, adding that the radar operators probably saw a “phantom echo” of the F-89, produced by atmospheric conditions, that merged with the radar return from the jet and vanished with it when the plane struck the water.

Exactly what happened that night remains unclear, as the Air Force acknowledges, and serious unanswered questions remain. How likely is it that a pilot could suffer from vertigo when flying on instruments, as official records indicate was the case? If the F-89 did intercept an RCAF C-47, why did the “blip” of the C47 also disappear off the radar scope? Or, if Menzel’s explanation is accepted and there was no actual intercept, why did the Air Force invoke a Canadian C-47, which RCAF spokesmen later stated was not there? No intelligence document has yet surfaced that reports the radio communications between the pilot and radar controllers, and what each was seeing. Without this information, it is impossible to evaluate the “true UFO” versus the false radar returns and accidental crash explanations. – Richard Hall, NICAP

The Kinross Incident

Did a UFO abduct an Air Force jet interceptor and its crew in 1953?

Donald Keyhoe – UFO researcher, ex-Marine and director of the National Investigations Committee on Aerial Phenomena (NICAP) – an early advocate of the concept that UFOs were extraterrestrial spacecraft visiting Earth on reconnaissance and sampling missons, was particularly intrigued with cases where aircraft interacted with the objects. He was especially fascinated with one 1953 case, describing it in several articles and books. Here is one of the most detailed versions:

One of the strangest cases on record occurred in 1953. Though it has received considerable publicity, some of the follow-up developments are not generally known. On the night of November 23, 1953, an F-89 all-weather interceptor was scrambled at Kinross AFB, to check on a UFO flying over the Soo Locks. The jet had a crew of two – Lt. Felix Moncla, the pilot, and Lt. R. R. Wilson, the radar observer. Guided by an AF GCI (Ground Control Intercept) radar station, Moncla followed the unknown machine out over Lake Superior, flying at 500 miles an hour. Minutes later, a GCI controller was startled to see the blips of the jet and the UFO suddenly merge on the radar-scope. Whatever had happened, one thing was certain: The F-89 and the UFO were locked together. As the combined blip went off the scope the controller hurriedly radioed Search and Rescue. Moncla and Wilson might have bailed out before the collision. Both had life jackets and self-inflating life rafts – even in the cold water they could survive for a while. All night, U.S. and Canadian search planes with flares circled low over the area. At daylight, a score of boats joined the hunt, as the pilots crisscrossed the lake for a hundred miles. But no trace was found of the airmen, the jet or the UFO. The search was still on when Truax AFB gave the Associated Press this official release: “The plane was followed by radar until it merged with an object 70 miles off Keweenaw Point in upper Michigan.” In view of AF secrecy this was a surprising admission. The statement appeared in an early edition of the Chicago Tribune, headed JET, TWO ABOARD, VANISHES OVER LAKE SUPERIOR. (Photocopy in author’s possession.) Then AF Headquarters killed the story. Denying the jet had merged with anything, the AF said that radar operators had misread the scope. The reported UFO, it stated, had been an offcourse Canadian airliner which the F-89 had intercepted and identified. After this, the AF speculated, the pilot evidently had been stricken with vertigo and the jet had crashed in the lake. The Canadian airlines quickly denied any flights in the area. Expert pilots also hit at the AF explanation…. As customary, the AF sent two officers to the families of the lost airmen to give them official messages of sympathy. According to letters which a relative of Moncla sent me, here is what followed. Explaining the accident, the AF representative told Moncla’s widow that the pilot had flown too low while identifying the supposed Canadian airliner and had crashed in the lake. By some headquarters mixup, a second AF officer was sent to offer condolences to the Moncla family. When Moncla’s widow asked if her husband’s body might be recovered the officer said there was no chance – the jet had exploded at a high altitude, destroying the plane and its occupants. – Aliens from Space: The Real Story of Unidentified Flying Objects

Official Account – Obtained Through FOIA

The following official accounts of the Kinross loss were obtained by Robert Todd under the Freedom of Information Act. Note that, surprisingly enough, there were two F-89s lost by the 433d Fighter Interceptor Squadron on November 23, 1953 – the first while returning from a short engine test flight near the 433d’s home base at Truax AFB, Madison, Wisconsin, and the second on an operational intercept mission over Lake Superior, originating from Kinross AFB, Michigan, a satellite base of Truax. All four crewmen were either killed outright or declared missing and listed as dead.

A crucial point is that the first entry clearly implies that the unidentified radar target that Moncla was pursuing when his fighter disappeared was in radio contact with ground controllers at some point, and therefore was not a UFO: “the bogey was not aware of any aircraft in the area.”

CHAPTER III OPERATIONS AND TRAINING

On 23 November a F-89 assigned to the 433d took off on a routine operational flight to check the afterburners on the new J-35-A-47 engines. After climbing to 40,000 feet and broadcasting performance data to the ground recording unit, air-to-ground transmission was discontinued. Approximately twelve minutes after the last transmission was received the ship crashed and disintegrated upon impact, killing both crew members. Prior to the crash, the aircraft was observed to pull out of a steep dive and eject the canopy. Cause was undetermined. Still again in November, an F-89 of Detachment #1, Kinross AFB, Michigan, took off on an active Air Defense mission and disappeared. GCI had control of the fighter and was directing it from 25,000 feet down to 7,000 feet. The fighter and bogey blips merged on the GCI radar scope and there was no further transmission from the fighter. The bogey was not aware of any aircraft in the area, and GCI saw no blips break off from the target. Both pilot and observer are missing and officially listed as dead.

HISTORICAL DATA FOR THE 433d FIGHTER INTERCEPTOR SQUADRON 1 July 1953-31 December 1953

D. Accidents On 23 November 1953, an F-89C assigned to this organization took off from Truax Field on a routine operational check of the afterburners on the J-35-A-47 engines. The pilot climbed to 40,000 feet and at the same time broadcast performance data to a ground recording unit. After reaching 40,000 feet, air to ground transmission was discontinued as all data had been received. Approximately twelve minutes after the last transmission the aircraft crashed seven miles south of the field with injuries fatal to both crew members. The aircraft was observed to have pulled out of a steep dive at 500 feet, and the canopy was ejected just prior to impact. On 23 November 1953, an F-89C of Detachment #1, 433d Fighter-Interceptor Squadron, Kinross Air Force Base, Michigan, took off on an active air defense mission. GCI had control of the fighter and was directing it from 25,000 feet down to 7,000 feet. The fighter and the bogey blips merged on the GCI radar scope. There was no further transmission from the fighter, the bogey was not aware of any aircraft in the area, and GCI saw no blips break off from the target. Both pilot and radar observer are missing and are now officially listed as dead.

OPERATIONS

In November this unit had a jet fighter, an F-89C type aircraft disappear over Lake Superior while on an active air defense mission under this unit’s control. The Controller (4) [2nd Lt. Douglas A. Stuart] on duty had positioned the fighter for the final phase of the intercept and the blips merged on the scope. Radar and radio [contact] was lost with the F-89 at this time and the aircraft was never sighted again. The search for the missing aircraft was under the direction of the Canadian Air Force; and the United States Coast Guard, Air Force, and Canadian Air Force participated in the search. No trace was found of the plane and crew of two.

Missing F-89 Found?

Update: November 1, 2006

A number of individuals have been trying to corroborate information supplied by Adam Jimenez, who is the contact for Great Lakes Dive Company (if such a group actually exists). Most of the investigators believe that the information which has surfaced in these investigations suggests that this find is possibly or probably a hoax. Adam Jimenez is currently unavailable for comment or to answer questions. He is the only person known who can substantiate his claims.

Original Information Follows

A group of Michigan based divers and engineers, the Great Lakes Dive Company, has announced that they have found the wreck of an F-89 on the bottom of Lake Superior.

Using advanced side scan sonar equipment, they surveyed an area around the location where the F-89 was last observed on radar, back on the night it disappeared, Nov. 23, 1953.

Expecting to find perhaps the engines and a few scraps of metal debris, they were quite stunned when the first low resolution scans of the discovery showed an almost complete F-89, resting upright on the lakebed with the nose and one wingtip buried in the sediment. The upswept tail of the F-89 and a wing pod fuel tank were clearly visible. The port side wing is completely gone and looks like a straight-edged cut where it would join the fuselage. The starboard horizontal stabilizer on the tail is also mysteriously missing.

Despite an extended search of the nearby area, no evidence of the missing wing or tail part was found. Instead, another mysterious object was found which the divers believed to be the object with which the F-89 collided.

The object is reportedly metallic and contains a hole which they believe was caused by a collision of the missing port wing of the F-89.

GLDC states they believe the canopy and cockpit are in place also, which may imply the crew did not escape and their remains may be in the cockpit.

GLDC had intended to go back to the wreck this year to perform ROV scans of the craft, however they say they were contacted by the Canadian government who asked them to provide the GPS coordinates of the site before they would allow them to finish their site surveys. They also requested that a coast guard vessel or Canadian government official accompany GLDC on any further surveys of the site.

GLDC has stated they want to do a full length documentary of their search and discovery although their plans may now be on hold as they state they have abandoned efforts to do more surveys on the wreck discovery.

Implications of Discovery

It is far from clear what this reported discovery implies about the fate of the missing F-89. The reported find of another mysterious object may provide a clue.

Until more information becomes available, all we have is a few images which a reported to be images from their side scan sonar. Although the Great Lakes Dive Co. have so far been providing useful information, there will be lingering doubts on the veracity of this find until it can be further substantiated.

GLDC believes this discovery may imply the F-89 was brought down by a collision with some sort of unknown craft which may be the mysterious object on the lakebed. However they are unable to reconcile this theory with good structural condition of the F-89.

I believe the discovery might imply something quite different. It may be possible that the craft was placed on the lakebed by the crew of the craft which perhaps abducted the craft and crew.

I think this remains a possibility due to the following:

F-89 Not Tracked Below 7000 Feet

The F-89 disappeared from radar at an altitude of 7000 feet. If it collided with a craft at this altitude then the F-89 should still have reflected radar signals as it fell to the lakebed.

If it collided with the object at a lower altitude, we still need to explain why the altitude of the unknown and F-89 was not tracked below 7000 feet.

Missing Wing and Tail

The port wing and starboard tail horizontal stabilizer are missing from the plane and despite many scans, no evidence of them has so far emerged. All parts of the aircraft should have settled into the same general vicinity of the lakebed – although it is possible that the search has not been thorough enough or the radius of the search area still needs to be increased.

Is it possible that the missing tail piece was part of the parts found in 1968? We may never be able to find out as the identification of the parts were apparently withheld from the public and the Canadian and US governments claim they have no records of the find.

Lt. Moncla Heard on Radio

The pilot of the first F-89 into the air in search of the missing F-89, Lt. Mingenbach, took off from Kinross AFB just a few minutes after the F-89 went missing from radar. About 40 minutes after the F-89 disappeared from radar, Lt. Mingenbach believes he heard a radio transmission from the pilot of the missing plane, Lt. Moncla. While it is possible that this was something else, it certainly is doubtful that Lt. Moncla would be transmitting from the bottom of the lake, 40 minutes after his plane collided with an unknown object.

Where To Now?

The family of the missing USAF crew clearly have a right to know whether the discovered wreck contains the remains of the crew.

As someone who has investigated this mystery for over five years, I believe the Canadian and US public has the right to know what can be discovered from this find. This means that a detailed video scan should be made of the wreck as soon as can be arranged. The evidence which is obtained should be made available to interested members of the general public.

The US government has had a particularly poor record in dealing with this incident in an honest manner. The Canadian government also has some explaining to do with respect to its handling of the discovery of military jet aircraft parts in October, 1968 in the bush near the shore of Alona Bay (north of Sault Ste. Marie).

F-89 Discovery a Possible Hoax

Since this story first appeared, various people have been trying to corroborate information supplied by Adam Jimenez concerning the alleged discovery of a missing F-89 on the bottom of Lake Superior.

Update Dec. 18, 2006 – See summary of MUFON’s investigation into Great Lakes Dive Company and their claims of discovery of the missing F-89.

While it may be too early to reach any definitive conclusions, there certainly seems to be many more questions than answers concerning Great Lakes Dive Company and the alleged F-89 discovery.

About the middle of October, the Great Lakes Dive Company website suddenly went blank. It was at this time that Adam Jimenez stopped returning phone calls and emails.

Without communication from Adam Jimenez, it is impossible to know exactly why the website was blanked out and why Adam has chosen to stop answering questions.

It is possible that he simply decided he wanted to keep a lower profile and was tired of the publicity.

It is also possible that he was avoiding the exposure of those who were asking questions of the authenticity of his claims.

Some see the disappearance of the website as evidence of a dark conspiracy of government to hide the truth that was daring to be revealed. This seems like one of the lesser possibilities based on all the questions surrounding the claims.

Who is Great Lakes Dive Company?

According to Adam, Great Lakes Dive Company first discovered the F-89 in the summer of 2005. They sat on the discovery for almost a year before revealing it to anyone. To do this search, they need some very expensive equipment, and a fairly large boat. Adam indicated that GLDC was involved in the search of other missing shipwrecks, however, it seems that no one in the Great Lakes shipwreck searching community has ever heard of Adam Jimenez or his project.

Their name appears in no other web related citations concerning shipwrecks, side scan sonar or Great Lakes diving.

The Great Lakes Dive Company website was brought online about the time that Adam announced the alleged F-89 find. During the whole time it was online, it never once provided a list detailing the members or owners of the alleged “Great Lakes Dive Company”. Investigators who have tried to track down any registration or license for the company have found nothing.

Does the company consist of any other person besides Adam Jimenez? It is difficult to tell because no one appears to have had any contact with anyone else but Adam and there were never any photographs of anyone from GLDC posted to their website.

Does the company have any assets such as a boat or side scan sonar equipment? This is also difficult to tell as GLDC never posted any pictures of the boat and the side scan sonar equipment.

Was the company ever on Lake Superior? You would think that anyone who was engaged in such a search would bring a camera and record the search and discoveries. Note that Adam claimed that GLDC had actually performed ROV surveys of the F-89 and “mystery object” and had taken photos of video of the F-89 and mystery object. But not a single photograph from the vessel was ever posted to the site. This certainly seems very puzzling.

Where Did the Story Originate?

My first knowledge of the alleged discovery came by word of mouth from someone who had read about the discovery on the website list “UFO Updates” which is hosted by Errol Bruce-Knapp of Toronto, Ontario. The original August 22nd, 2006 post was sent to UFO Updates from Francis Ridge who is a researcher, writer and investigator with NICAP. Francis received email from Preston Miller which consisted of copied text which was presented as an AP (Associated Press) news story from Port Huron, Michigan.

Beyond this, no one has been able to find the original story or any trace of the AP story. It now seems likely that the story was a fake. It is unclear who this Preston Miller is and whether they were the actual source for the story.

Are the Sonar Images Real?

There seems to be conflicting opinions on whether the images of the F-89 and the mystery object are real side scan sonar images. Brendon Baillod of Great Lakes Shipwreck Research uses side scan sonar to search for shipwrecks in the Great Lakes. He believes the images are real side scan sonar images although he does think that “his (Adam Jimenez’s) claims are based on an elaborate hoax”.

I am not an authority on side scan sonar imaging, but I thought it might be possible for someone to create these images using image processing software on a computer. The original image might be a real model or a computer generated model. The photographs don’t have much detail so I thought it would be quite possible for someone to fake these images.

From the beginning, I worried that the whole find might be a hoax, but I did not want to sound too skeptical because I wanted to ensure that if it was a real find, that I would do my best to assist the investigation. In my view, if the claim turned out to be a hoax, this would be just another in a rather tedious and boring history. If it were real, then this possibly would lead to the solution to the mystery surrounding a fifty year old missing aircraft and crew – a mystery which resonates deeply within me.

I am very curious about the real truth behind the claims. Perhaps this whole thing is some persons idea of a joke. If so, they would have to know that they would eventually have to face up to the hoax. The only logical sounding theory I have heard put forward is that someone wanted to fool the UFO community into swallowing the notion that a flying saucer had been found on the bottom of Lake Superior. Then the idea would be just to make the whole UFO community look gullible. If this is the case, we would expect Adam to emerge trumpeting his success in making some people look foolish.

I was never really much impressed with the image of the “mystery object” or with Adam’s account of how they used a fish finder to get the image after they noticed a distortion in the image from their regular sidescan sonar equipment. As Brendon states, it is really quite hard to imagine how they would connect up this fish finder and get it down several hundred feet on the towfish and then collect the returned signal from the fish finder and patch it back as a feed into the sonar signal processing software.

Where To From Here?

With what is known now, we still don’t know the following:

Are the sonar images real sonar images?

If the images are real, are the images of an real F-89?

If the images are of a real F-89, is it an F-89 on the bottom of Lake Superior?

It is possible that Adam Jimenez could do us all a favor by explaining all that he knows about the find. He did state that he has photographs or video images of the F-89 showing it is the missing F-89 from Kinross.

If he doesn’t come forward to validate his claim or explain the purpose of the possible hoax, then we can still solve the key remaining question.

Is the missing F-89 lying on the bottom of Lake Superior? All that is needed is some people with a good boat, some expensive side scan sonar equipment, and a camera equipped ROV and we’re off to the races.
