Advancing the Human Condition – Travelling Through Time

(Before It's News)

A growing number of futurists are speculating that someday human minds will be transferred to computers. Let’s assume that will happen, whether in a hundred years or a thousand. Futurists say that all we’ll need is fairly normal advances in technology to get there.

At the moment, the best minds in science believe that time travel is impossible, at least in the sense of sending a solid object back in time. But a number of scientists are noodling with the idea that binary information can be sent back in time using some sort of strange quantum trickery. Again for fun, assume someone in the future figures out how to send information back in time.

Combining my two assumptions, it means that someday future robots with human-originated minds will have the means to send their entire minds back in time, so long as there is some sort of detector in the present to pick up the signals.

The problem with building a detector in the present is that we can’t know what method the future will invent for sending information back in time. But as the future gets nearer, we should be able to take ever-better guesses on what sort of detectors might work.

My idea is to start a long-term project of building various types of detectors and seeding the Internet with information about those detectors so our future robot humans can know what type of detectors to aim for. Every year, as we get better guesses about the type of detectors that might work, we build them and add them to the mix. In the short term, the detectors would be networked to normal data storage. Longer term, we’d build a robot with enough data storage for the incoming human mind.

Imagine some future human sitting in the detector lab next to the slumped robot that is waiting for an incoming mind from the future. The robot pops to life, looks around, and speaks its first words: “Wow! That actually worked!”

I like it as a movie plot.

Piri Reis Map – Genuine?

(Before It's News)

The Piri Reis Map was compiled in 1513 as a map of the world, backed by an Ottomon (Turkish) admiral and cartographer (map maker), Piri Reis.  

Only one third of the map survives.  What is left shows the western coast of Europe, North Africa, and the coast of Brazil with great accuracy.

The construction of the map incorporated many other world explorers and their maps from Indians to Columbus, Arabian and Portuguese.  It was placed upon gazelle hide.

The map was discovered by a German theologian in 1929, sent to go through maps in the Turkish collection. It is believed that there were other maps more accurate in relationships and contours during the 16th Century.  

This is considered to be the oldest existing map showing America.

Source:  Apart from its great historic interest, the map has been alleged to contain details no European could have known in the 1500's, and therefore proves the existence of ancient technological civilizations, visits by extraterrestrials, or both.

It is believed this map was torn along the eastern edge and so we are only seeing half of an entire world map. 

There are many discrepancies involving the America portion of the map. The marginal notes refer to some of the islands and coasts north of South America as “Antilia,” clearly referring to the Antilles. The lack of good detail is puzzling since there must have been much better maps of the Caribbean by this time. If it's a real place at all – “Antilia” was a legendary  island of the times.  

Perhaps the biggest controversy about the map is what many interpret to be Antarctica without ice.

Source:  Thereafter, the Piri Reis Map drifts into the Twilight Zone. It shows South America swinging far to the east. Given that the map so far has done fairly well in latitude, we can be sure the coastline is not Antarctica. Also, if the map draws on ancient knowledge to show things no 16th century explorer would have known, why is the coastline continuous? So why isn't there open water between South America and “Antarctica?” You can't seize on an accidental resemblance to a couple of bumps on the coast of Antarctica and blithely ignore the failure to show the Drake Passage!

Most damning of all to the Antarctica interpretation is that the marginal notes refer to the coast in this region being discovered by Portuguese ships blown off course. One note refers to the land being “very hot,” which probably rules out Antarctica. The Piri Reis Map itself explicitly says the information in this area came from European sources. Atlanteans and extraterrestrials need not apply. We have isolated sightings of coast made by ships far off course and unsure of their location. Small wonder the map is wildly inaccurate.

On the other side of this dispute are those who contend Piri Reis was showing the true Antarctica - 

Source:  On 6th July 1960 the U. S. Air Force responded to Prof. Charles H.  Hapgood of Keene College, specifically to his request for an evaluation  of the ancient Piri Reis Map:

TO: Prof Charles H. Hapgood, Keene College
Dear Professor Hapgood,
Your request of evaluation of certain unusual features of the Piri  Reis Antarctica map of 1513 by this organization has been reviewed.. The  claim that the lower part of the map portrays the Princess Martha Coast  of Queen Maud Land, Antarctic, and the Palmer Peninsular, is  reasonable. We find that this is the most logical and in all probability  the correct interpretation of the map. The geographical detail shown in  the lower part of the map agrees very remarkably with the results of  the seismic profile made across the top of the ice-cap by the  Swedish-British Antarctic Expedition of 1949.This indicates the  coastline had been mapped before it was covered by the ice-cap. This  part of Antarctica ice free. The ice-cap in this region is now about a  mile thick. We have no idea how the data on this map can be reconciled  with the supposed state of geographical knowledge in 1513.

Harold Z. Ohlmeyer Lt. Colonel, USAF Commander

Of course, this far from the drawing of the map and those involved, all we have is conjecture. If Piri Reis depended on lots of seafaring countries to give him input and come up with a consensus, then it would seem that they did a fair job on most of the recognizable landmarks, though North America seems to be a real puzzle. It would be interesting to see if anyone can uncover in some archives at some museum, the other half of this map. It astonishes me that any museum could be so poorly cataloged and, yet, look what the Smithsonian did with the mounds finds and ancient giant race!

Proof That Alien Implants Are REAL!

(Before It's News)

Dr. Roger Leir, a surgeon (now deceased) who performed operations for more than 30 years, says he had undeniable proof that people have been implanted with alien objects, many of which he removed from patients.There was no evidence of point of entry nor any sign of inflammation, which Dr. Leir said is impossible.
The implants had been connected to nerve endings. Implants were found to come from materials not present on our earth. Watch video !!

The Mothman’s Photographer: The Work of an Artist Touched by the Prophecies of the Infamous Mothman

(Before It's News)

In addition to doing hundreds of hours of interviews, Colvin has so far generated over 3000 pages of writing and several thousand photographs, all devoted to exploring the mysteries of the Mothman phenomenon. This photo book, “The Mothman’s Photographer I,” features 300 of Colvin’s eerie, symbolic images. There are brief descriptions of all photos, an artist’s statement, and a forward by Dave Scott, curator for the Cincinnati Gallery of Conceptual Art.

Colvin’s images dramatically illustrate his theory that birdmen such as Mothman, Garuda, and Thunderbird are actually one and the same – an archetypal, crime-fighting “superhero” from the collective unconscious. The job of this avatar is to send dreams, visions, and psychic messages to ordinary humans, thus stimulating insight, creativity, and intellectual growth.

Regardless of the source, Colvin’s talent as an artist shines through in his drawings and photographs. Colvin’s confidence in his style – rooted in spirituality, intuition, and synchronicity, yet honed by academic work in ethnomusicology, cine-ethnography, and art history – is inspiring. Despite his spare, unblinking technical approach, his work is funny and entertaining. Somehow it achieves a poetic magic. In fact, it has been hailed by some as representing a breakthrough in how we perceive the mysterious. By devoting years to nothing but the audiovisual documentation of his own life, Colvin has produced a body of work that transcends the mundane and defies categorization.

Girls In Car Chased By Aliens In Egg Shaped Vehicles Encounter

(Before It's News)

For more high strange visit www.churchofmabusradio.com

One night in 1972, four coeds from Southern Utah University were driving back to their dorm in Cedar City after spending the day at a rodeo in Pioche, Nevada. It was about 10 p.m. and the girls were eager to get back to their dorm before curfew. They were traveling along Highway 56, which has a reputation for being “haunted.” A while after taking a fork in the road that turned to the north, the girls were surprised to see that the black asphalt had turned into a white cement …road that eventually ended abruptly at a cliff face. They turned around and tried to find their way back to the highway, but soon became concerned about the unfamiliar landscape – red canyon walls that gave way to open grain fields and pine trees, which they had never encountered before in this part of the state. Feeling completely lost, the girls felt some comfort when they approached a roadhouse or tavern. They pulled into the parking lot and one of the passengers poked her head out the window to get directions from a few “men” coming out of the building. But she screamed and ordered the driver to get out of there – fast. The girls sped off, but realized they were being chased by the men in strange, tri-wheeled, egg-shaped vehicles. Speeding again through the canyon, the girls seemed to have lost their pursuers and found their way to the familiar desert highway. The reason for the scream? The men, she said, weren’t human.”

The Bennington Triangle And The Man-Eating Stone Of Glastonbury Mountain

(Before It's News)

Mysterious Universe

Known for high society, fine-dining, world class skiing, and mysterious disappearances, Vermont, one of the six US states that make up the New England region, has been the focus of some of the better minds in anomalous or Fortean research over the years.  One place in particular has gotten more than its fair share of attention: Glastonbury Mountain, also known as Green Mountain or the Green Mountain Range, is home to some very strange goings on, and has inspired some of the wildest theories you’ve ever heard.

The entire area of New England has been the primary focus of renowned author and Fortean researcher Joseph A. Citro.  Humorously dubbed the Bard of the Bizarre by the Boston Globe, Citro has written extensively on the weird happenings, disappearances and other phenomena of New England, and especially Vermont.  He is the originator of the somewhat little known Bennington Triangle theory, which is, as may seem obvious, a play on the Bermuda Triangle, and is his attempt to document and explain the disappearance of some five different people under mysterious circumstances since 1945, all on Glastonbury Mountain.

Citro notes, in his premiere novel Shadow Child (1987), which deals extensively with the mysteries of Glastonbury Mountain, that the area of what is now called Green Mountain has long been known, through Native American culture, as a strange and dangerous place that is to be avoided at all costs.  Citro’s apparent familiarity with the history and traditions of the Algonquin peoples, who inhabited the area as early as 8500 BCE, has given him unique insight into the special and dark nature of the mountain.

The disappearances of Middie Rivers (1945), Paula Weldon (1946), James Tedford (1949), Paul Jepson (1950), and Frieda Langer (1950), are something of local legend in the area.

18 year old Paula Weldon, who disappeared while on a solo hike on the Long Trail, became something of a celebrity.  As the story goes, several people witnessed her departure from Bennington College, with the knowledge that she was headed out for a short hike.  Two elderly hikers reported seeing her on the trail, approximately 100 yards ahead of them, minutes before she disappeared.  They claimed that she rounded a corner on the trail, and when they reached the same corner, she was gone, and was never seen or heard from again, despite extensive searches, FBI involvement and even a $5000 reward for her safe return.  Her case became part of local urban legend, as people speculated about her becoming a wild recluse on the mountain, or perhaps fleeing to Canada to marry a boyfriend whose identity she kept secret.

There are several coincidences involved in the disappearances, but no real connection between any of the cases has been found.  James Tedford (also spelled Teford or Tetford) disappeared from a bus between stops as it travelled toward Bennington exactly three years to the day from Weldon’s disappearance.  Also, 8 year old Paul Jepson, who disappeared from his mother’s truck, while she tended to her pigs, was tracked with dogs.  His scent was apparently picked up and followed to a local highway, which happened to be very near where Paula Weldon had disappeared.

The only one of the five to ever have been recovered was 53 year old Frieda Langer, who disappeared during a hike with her cousin only sixteen days after little Paul Jepson.  Her body was recovered seven months later, near the Somerset Reservoir, which had been searched extensively at the time of her disappearance.  No cause of death could be determined because of the advanced state of decay in which she was found.

Strange coincidences notwithstanding, there isn’t much about these disappearances that warrants Fortean attention, at least on the surface.  People go missing, it happens every day, all over the world, and though it’s a tragic event, it isn’t necessarily anomalous or even all that weird.

Except…

According to Citro, the Bennington Triangle, an ill-defined area surrounding Glastonbury Mountain and roughly bordered by the region of Bennington itself, bears striking resemblance to the nearby Bridgewater Triangle of Massachusetts.  The Bridgewater Triangle, for those unfamiliar, is an area of approximately 200 square miles in southeastern Massachusetts, wherein sightings of UFO’s, orbs, Bigfoot, and thunderbird, as well as cattle mutilations have been taking place on a regular basis for decades, if not centuries.  Citro claims that there is similar folklore and history between these two areas, and has put forward some slightly strange explanations for the weirdness held therein.

Perhaps his strangest explanation is the man-eating stone of Glastonbury Mountain.  Making its first appearance in Citro’s book The Vermont Monster Guide (2009), the man-eating stone is exactly what it sounds like…a rock that eats people.

“No one alive has seen this dangerous anomaly on Glastonbury Mountain.  Native Americans knew of it, and warned people away.  We can only imagine it as a sizable rock, large enough to stand on.  But when someone stands upon it, the rock becomes less solid, and, like a living thing, swallows the unfortunate trespasser.  A number of disappearances have been reported on Glastonbury Mountain.  Could all these vanished folks have stepped inadvertently on this hungry stone?”[1]

In another of his books, Passing Strange: True Tales of New England Hauntings and Horrors (1996), Citro describes “an inaccessible region, remote, full of dark places, jutting outcrops, vast marshlands and quiet pools.”  He seems to regard the entire region as a magical land of mysteries and dangers, almost fairy-tale-like, but describes a wild, almost untouched wilderness sitting in the heart of American society’s upper crust summer vacation destination.

Is there something weird going on at Glastonbury Mountain?  Is the Bennington Triangle worth a closer look?  Or is a talented author and folklorist trying to sell books through sensational, if difficult to believe theories?  The facts are that five people disappeared on that mountain, four of them without a trace of evidence as to their whereabouts or fate.  That alone should get our attention, and who knows…maybe there is a boulder with an appetite for man-flesh in Vermont.

UFO sighting above Victoria, Australia on 27th April 2014

New interesting video footage of a UFO activity recorded in the sky above Victoria, Australia on 27th April 2014.

Witness said:
It was a sunny afternoon on the day of 27th April 2014 and i was out with my camera scanning the skies for more Unidentified Flying Objects. I was tracking a commercial airliner for a frame of reference at 4.36pm when the UFO first came into view. It seemed to me the object was much higher in the sky than the commercial jet and a considerable distance away, est. approximately 5km North-West of Taylors Hill, Vic. Australia. The object was hard to see against the blue sky and certainly not visible with the unaided eye, no. A 62mm Infrared 950nm camera filter was necessary to spot this object. I believe this sighting provides further proof that what i have been observing in the sky over my suburb is a very real phenomena involving unknown intelligent lifeforms, and very likely energy-based vehicles under intelligent control. I have had previous close encounters with UFOs and i can rule out obvious explanations. After many months of filming UFOs i cannot claim i have ever seen any acts of malevolence or undesirable interactions between the subjects being filmed and persons either in the air or on the ground.

There have been "thought experiments" on how UFOs might work (on paper, as no hardware is available, at least publicly). Books have been written by Paul R. Hill (written 1970s, published 1995), James McCampbell (1970s), Leonard G. Cramp (1966), Plantier (1953); who all approached the UFO phenomenon from a "nuts-and-bolts" craft perspective and their theories on UFO manoeuvring were based on the idea that a UFO's source of propulsion is rigidly attached to the craft. Other engineers and physicists who have shown a public and persistent interest in the UFO subject, or speculated on how UFOs might work, are Hermann Oberth, James E. McDonald, James Harder, Harley D. Rutledge, Jack Sarfatti, Harold Puthoff, Claude Poher (who in the late 1970s headed GEPAN, the French government's UFO project) and many others. This page is complementary to my Quick Technical Overview: What we think we know about UFOs page.

 Summary: If we are to explain UFOs in terms of physics we understand to some degree, yet still conform to witness observations, it seems essential to assume UFOs are capable of generating artificial gravity fields (in GR terms, to manipulate the curvature of the fabric of space-time), much as we produce magnetism with electric currents. An approximation -probably oversimplified- of overall UFO behaviour is via accepting such a (hypothetical, or at least not known to us) gravity-like repulsive "force-field". The glow / luminescence in various colours around the UFO (apparently shape depends on UFO's shape as well as its current maneuver, so the UFO's outline as seen by external observer can change), is thought to be due to ionization of surrounding air (atmosphere around the UFO "lights up", much like what happens in neon-lamps), hereafter referred to as "UFO plasma sheath". Brightness/color changes of the "UFO plasma sheath" seem to be related with thrust/acceleration. The air ionization seems to be caused by the EM radiation emitted by the UFO, and is thought to be a secondary effect of the propulsion system. This includes UV (suggested by many cases of sunburn-like effects and eye and skin irritation) and soft X-rays (suggested by "burn ring" traces on ground where UFOs landed). Considering the difficulty of creating plasma in normal atmospheric conditions, in combination with other observations, like the luminosity of submarine UFOs, the sudden appearance of condensation / mist when starting up in high humidity conditions and noise patterns, it all suggests an envelope of lower atmospheric density near the UFO's surface. A near vacuum, i.e. the air/water is "pushed away" from the skin of the craft (confirmed by observations when UFOs rise from water), which minimizes friction and heating issues.  Plasmas can interact strongly with electromagnetic radiation, "Plasma Stealth" is a proposed process that uses ionized gas (plasma) to reduce the radar cross section (RCS) of an aircraft. This may explain why sometimes UFOs are seen visually, but not tracked on radar. Often UFOs have a very strong magnetic field. Also, in several cases, light (e.g. from car headlights or beaming spotlights) is reported to "bend" in front of the UFO, an effect which some suggest is related with the most controversial aspect of UFO reports: the apparent ability to disappear / "blink out" or seem to "implode" (diminish in angular size) [miniature-scale "gravitational lensing"-type phenomenon?]. Physiological effects on humans include: sunburn-type effect and eye irritation, extreme dryness of the nasal area and of the throat, color changes in vision, extreme headaches and a heating/burning sensation. Witnesses and animals have become sick and even died, with symptoms similar to radiation poisoning, after close approach to a UFO. Given the tremendous amount of energy UFOs seem to be expending, their power source is a big mystery. Many ideas have been proposed, including that UFOs are storing energy in a very concentrated form, or converting gravity to usable energy (H.Oberth 1950s), or utilising ambient energy (speculations about being able to tap the so-called Zero-Point-Energy) or utilize remote transmission of power (wireless energy transfer).

It seems that UFOs defy our currently accepted Physics, e.g. the conservation of momentum (UFOs accelerate without throwing any material out the backside). Both Newton's gravity and General Relativity (Einstein's theory of gravitation), require the existence of "negative mass" (or energy) for antigravity to be possible. This has been a major hurdle to the study of UFOs by many "mainstream" physicists in previous decades (e.g. read Markowitz, W., "The Physics and Metaphysics of Unidentified Flying Objects", Science, Vol. 157, 1967).

My opinion: Having spent considerable time researching the UFO subject, it seems to me that the public scientific research most promising to be related to the UFO propulsion question, is the so-called Gravitomagnetism (the subject of field effects caused by moving matter, it has nothing to do with magnetism despite its name) and in particular any connection of gravitation with superconductivity, the purported "enhanced or boosted Gravitomagnetism". I am inclined to also include claims made in the 1990s by Russian materials scientist E.Podkletnov of "gravity shielding" effects when experimenting with rotating superconductors in a magnetic field, characterised "controversial" and apparently had a negative effect to his carreer. In Mar-2006, an experiment by Austrian physicist M.Tajmar et al funded by ESA (European Space Agency), reported generation of a toroidal (tangential, azimuthal) gravitational field in a rotating accelerated (time dependent angular velocity) superconducting Niobium ring. My opinion stems from the fact that UFO literature since the 1940s consistently documents: 1/ direct gravity-like effects 2/ perception of rotation on UFOs, such as at the rim of saucer-/saturn-/sphere-shaped UFOs 3/ saucers flying in a manner as if the drive is acting perpendicular to the plane of the disk 4/ strong magnetic fields. The commonly observed UFO shapes (disk, spheroid) are seemingly not chosen for aerodynamic purposes (considering when discoid UFOs want to fly away fast, they tilt and fly with the plane of the disk directed forward). Very early in the UFO study, there was the idea that "saucers do their business at the rim" (APRO, Hill), the same area which generally  is reported to rotate and glow. However, in this page I provide links to other ideas on possible UFO propulsion which have been proposed over the years, such as Magneto[Hydro/Aero]Dynamics (the most popular), to Pulsed EM, to mag-lev type levitation.

Extract from Paul Hill's (NASA aeronautical engineer, bio) book "Unconventional Flying Objects: A Scientific Analysis" on UFO illumination (colors, brightness) and performance (acceleration).  Review of Paul Hill's book by Hal Puthoff, PhD theoretical physicist:

To the degree that the engineering characteristics of UFOs can be estimated  by empirical observation, in this reviewer's opinion the above-referenced,  recently-published book by Paul Hill provides the most reliable, concise  summary of engineering-type data available.¹ The data were compiled over decades of research by a Chief Scientist-Manager  at NASA Langley Research Center² who acted  as an informal clearinghouse for UFO-related data. The strength of the compilation  lies in its thoughtful separation of wheat from chaff, and the analysis  of the former into coherent patterns, including detailed calculations. Perhaps  surprising to the casually interested, under careful examination the observations,  rather than defying the laws of physics as naive interpretation might suggest,  instead appear to be solidly commensurate with them, as the following discussion  shows.

One of the most consistently-observed characteristics of UFO flight is  a ubiquitous pattern in which they tilt to perform all maneuvers. Specifically,  they sit level to hover, tilt forward to move forward, tilt backward to  stop, bank to turn, and descend by "falling-leaf" or "silver-dollar-wobble"  motions. Detailed analysis by Hill shows that such motion is inconsistent  with aerodynamic requirements, but totally consistent with some form of  repulsive force-field propulsion. Not satisfied with paper analyses alone,  Hill arranged to have various forms of jet-supported and rotor-supported  circular flying platforms built and tested. Hill himself acted as test pilot  in early, originally-classified, versions, and found the above motions the  most economical for control purposes. Pictures of these platforms are included  in the text. 

In an effort to examine the force-field propulsion hypothesis yet further,  Hill analyzed a number of cases involving near-field interactions with an  apparent craft in which some form of force was in evidence. These include  examples in which a person or vehicle was affected, tree branches were parted  or broken, roof tiles were dislodged, objects were deflected and ground  or water were disturbed. Under close analysis the subtleties of these interactions  combine to point unequivocally to a repulsive force field surrounding the  craft, while discriminating against propulsion mechanisms involving jet  action, pure electric or magnetic effects, or the emission of energetic  particles or radiation (although the latter may accompany the propulsive  mechanism as a secondary effect). Further detailed investigation indicates  that the particular form of force field propulsion that satisfied observational  constraints is what Hill labels a directed acceleration field; that is,  a field that is, in general, gravitational-like in nature, and, in particular,  gravity-canceling.³ Such a field acts on  all masses in its sphere of influence as does a gravitational field. Corollary  to this conclusion is that observed accelerations ~100g relative to  the environment could be sustained without on-board high-g forces. 

One of the consequences of the above identification of field propulsion  type by Hill is his conclusion, supported by detailed calculation, computer  simulation and wind-tunnel studies, that supersonic flight through the atmosphere without sonic booms is easily engineered. Manipulation of the acceleration-type force field would, even at supersonic speeds, result in a constant-pressure, compression-free zone without shockwave in which the vehicle is surrounded by a subsonic flow-pattern of streamlines, and subsonic velocity ratios.  An additional benefit of such field control is that drops of moisture, rain,  dust, insects, or other low-velocity objects would follow streamline paths  around the craft rather than impact it. 

Another puzzle resolved by Hill's analysis is that craft observed to travel  continuously at Mach 4 or 5 do not appear to generate temperatures sufficiently  high to be destructive to known materials. In other words, UFOs appear to  prevent high aerodynamic heating rates rather than permitting a heating  problem to arise, then surviving it with heat-resistant materials as is  the case of the NASA Space Shuttle, whose surface temperatures can reach 1300°C. The  resolution of this potential problem is shown by Hill to derive from the  fact that the force-field control that results in the prevention of shockwave  drag as discussed above is also effective in preventing aerodynamic heating. In effect the airflow approaches, then springs away from the craft, depositing  no energy in the process. 

A further example of the type of correlation that emerges from Hill's analytical  approach is provided by an analysis of the economy of various flight-path  profiles. It is shown that high-angle, high-acceleration departures on ballistic-arc  trajectories with high-speed coast segments are more efficient than, for  example, intermediate-level, horizontal-path trips, both in terms of required  impulse-per-unit-mass and time-of-flight parameters. This he correlates  with the observation that UFO departures are of the dramatically high-angle,  high-acceleration type. 

Also of interest is Hill's analysis of the spectra and intensity of an  apparent plasma sheath surrounding such craft, the details of which correlate  with what one would expect in terms of it being a secondary effect associated  with the propulsion system; for example, a blue shift and intensity increase  during a "power-up" phase, and the opposite during hover and landing maneuvers.  An additional fine point that emerges from this analysis is resolution of  the paradox that observation on a direct line-of-sight to a near part of  the craft can reveal a metallic-like structure while the attempt to observe  the outline of the craft, necessarily by an oblique line-of-sight, results  in an indistinct blur. Analysis shows this to be a reasonable outcome of  an expected re-absorption of reflected light by the surrounding plasma in  the longer-length path associated with the more oblique view. 

Another typical nugget of information is found in Hill's discussion of  the results of the analysis of a possible UFO artifact, the famous Ubatuba magnesium fragments, claimed to have originated from an exploded unidentified  craft near Ubatuba, Brazil. Laboratory analysis of the samples found the  magnesium to be not only of exceptional purity, and anomalous in its trace  composition of other elements, but 6.7% denser than ordinary pure magnesium,  a figure well beyond the experimental error of the measurement. Hill's calculation  shows that this observation can be accounted for by assuming that the sample  contained only the pure isotope Mg-26, rather than the naturally-occurring  distribution among isotopes Mg-24, Mg-25, and Mg-26. Since the only isotope  separation on a significant scale in terrestrial manufacture is that of  uranium, such a result must be considered at least anomalous, and possibly  as evidence for extraterrestrial manufacture.  (editor's note: a recent analysis of the "Ubatuba magnesium" can be found in Composition Analysis of the Brazil Magnesium by Peter Sturrock, JSE, 15, 69-95, 2001)

Additional calculations concerning the parameters of interstellar travel  (including relativistic effects), and the energetics of such travel, have  been performed and are included in tabular and graphical form. The wealth  of material in these sections, along with discussion of the broad implications  of this material, reveal the dedication and thoroughness of Hill's approach  to his self-assigned task. 

In the final analysis, one must conclude that Hill has assembled as good  a case as can be made on the basis of presently available data that the  observation of some "unconventional flying objects" is compatible with the  presence of engineered platforms weighing in at something around 30 tons,  which are capable of 100-g accelerations and 9000-mph speeds in the atmosphere. Perhaps more important for the technical reader, however, is Hill's supporting  argumentation, based on solid analysis, that these platforms, although exhibiting  the application of physics and engineering principles clearly beyond our  present-day capabilities, do not appear to defy these principles in any  fundamental way.

• The Coyne UH-1H helicopter-UFO encounter 1973 (occured at the start of a major UFO wave that was happening in the USA in the latter part of 1973 to early 1974) which was a situation wherein a helicopter and its crew were apparently moved from about 1,500ft to 3,500ft of altitude in a time of a few seconds without any feeling of acceleration by the crew.
  Interviews with the helicopter crew members, from an extract from the 1979 documentary "UFOs: It has begun" (you can ignore the stuff after the interviews):
  
  More: ufologie, ufoevidence, nicap, cufon foia. Also note that the UFO was last seen moving towards Lake Erie, i.e. the UFO-water connection I keep highlighting throughout these pages.
• Wanaque, New Jersey Jan-1966, which was the site of a report involving the rising of water by a foot or so directly under the UFO.

  Website WaterUFO.net by Carl Feindt, concentrates in UFO water activity and most importantly on physical influences of UFOs on water, compiled by putting together elements from 100s of reports:
  

• Many reports of cases of levitation (ref: Bob Pratt's work in Brazil).

Light effects:

• Rotation of the plane of polarization of light (ref: Dr. Harder presented the Webb 5-May-1953 case in the 1968 Congressional hearings - src1 src2).
• Light beam bending, e.g.:Many night-time UFO photos once developed show just a mesh of colorful "squiggly lines of light" (e.g. stills from the recent Stephenville, Texas USA Jan-2008 video, the "ambersand UFO" of the famous sightings at New Zealand Dec-1978, night-time photos taken in the Smoky Mountains National Park in Feb-2008 or those taken in 1999 by Rhonda Rose, filmed near the Columbia River, close to Hood River, Oregon pic1, pic2).
  • The Norwood Searchlight Incident 19-Aug-1949 ufocasebook, nicap
  • Burkes Flat case 4-Apr-1966 car headlight beams "bending" towards UFO (src, drawing, src2)
• 
  Watch NBC's "Unsolved Mysteries" piece on the videos shot by Mrs Dorothy Izatt of Vancouver, Canada. Back in the 1970s, she captured interesting material on Super-8 home-movie tape on 1/18sec single-frames without bleed-over to the next frames: pic1, pic2, pic3:

It is my suspicion that what is perceived as "jitter" and "shape-shifting", the eyewitness reports of apparent change in UFOs' angular diameter ("winked out, from the outer edges inward", "seemed to implode, it shrank, and at a higher level it reappeared again") and the reports of UFO bending light (e.g. of car headlights) and fading / invisibility phenomena (covered in other pages), might be connected.

Vehicle interference: Gasoline engines stop (but oddly enough, diesel engines are apparently unaffected). CUFOS database lists 441 such cases. Several ideas have been proposed to explain this phenomenon, the two most prevalent are:

• A strong magnetic field might saturate the ignition coil and reduce voltage to the spark plugs. Joe Kirk Thomas, while employed as a EM interference engineer, did some experiments which led him to believe that "interference with automotive ignition systems could occur at magnetic field levels (at the point of interference) of 0.1 Tesla / 1000 Gauss and frequency of 100 Hz." (src: MUFON Journal Sep-1987, Oct-1989) Under this scenario, automobiles with diesel engines are immune to being stalled by the proximity of a UFO, because diesel engines do not utilize a high voltage ignition system.
• Another idea, suggested by J.McCampbell, was that the ionization of air around the UFO. Once ionized to form a plasma, air loses its normal insulating properties and will conduct electricity at lower voltages (commonly referred to as the insulator 'breakdown voltage') and thus short-circuits the high-voltage part of the ignition. Note: could this be related to the "tingling sensation", "hair stood up on end" etc physiological effects reported by human witnesses?. More (from MUFON 1983 Symposium proceeding).

Magnetic effects (e.g. compass swinging wildly, even a case of compass reversing polarity): Fifty-six (56) aircraft pilot sightings involving EM effects by Richard Haines, Ph.D. Often electrical circuitry and radio communications are interrupted, batteries are burned out. Strong Magnetic Field detected follwing sighting of a UFO by B. Maccabee, Ph.D, 1994,2000.

"Following the brief sighting of an unidentified flying object in Gulf Breeze, Florida in September 1992, investigators made an area search using a fluxgate gradient magnetometer and found a strong magnetic field gradient, indicative of a strong source of magnetic field, which appeared to be at or above the tops of some trees near a small pond. Three circles of depressed grass were found in the bottom of the shallow pond. This paper discusses the sighting, the area search, the circles and the field gradient measurements. An estimate of the field strength is presented and compared with magnetic effects associated with other sightings."

A look at UFO acceleration by B.Maccabee

Radar stealth? Quite often, UFOs not only seen, but are also tracked on radar, both ground and airborne radar. Such cases include the Washington "Merry go round" of 1952, the famous RB-47 1957 case, the Minot AFB Oct-1968 case, JAL-1628 Nov-1986 case, Belgium wave 1989-1990 etc. Based on the testimonies such as the one by Disclosure Project witness Mr Michael Smith, who was an Air Traffic Controller with the US Air Force:

one could assume that radar operators are under instructions to not report them, nor write anything down and basically to lie to eye-witnesses who ask for radar confirmation of what they see with their lying eyes.
Nevertheless, it seems that sometimes UFOs are seen visually, but not tracked on radar e.g. enlisted men who served in one of the major military radar installations here in Greece, on island Samos, reported (privately, but these are not carreer military officers who would fear their pensions) that on at least one occasion they could see a UFO do erratic maneuvres for minutes, yet their radar didn't log anything. "Plasma Stealth" is a proposed process that uses ionized gas (plasma) to reduce the radar cross section (RCS) of an aircraft. This may explain why sometimes UFOs are seen visually, but not tracked on radar. BTW there is speculation that USA's B-2 stealth bomber is using "plasma stealth".

Sonic boom elimination: In Plantier's theory, the same artificial gravity field he assumed the craft used for propulsion, could also be used to hold a protective layer of air around the craft. As Michel further summarized Plantier's work in 1957:

  Such a vessel would be able to move at the most terrifying speeds without noise, and to break the sonic barrier without producing the 'sonic boom.' For the force field centered on the engine would also act on the surrounding air. The air molecules would be dragged along at speeds proportional to their proximity to the engine. As a result, whatever may be the real speed of the craft, its speed with respect to the nearest molecules will always be much less than the speed of sound; these molecules in their turn will travel more slowly than the engine, but more rapidly than the molecules of the next layer, and so on. Thus no relative supersonic speed will be observed, even if the engine is traveling at 20,000 miles per hour. This reasoning seems perfectly logical: what causes the strident noise typical of supersonic aircraft, and the 'boom' of the sound barrier, is their continuous impact against the motionless air. But according to Plantier's reasoning, the air is drawn along at a distance by the engine, so that there is never any shock, but a gliding upon one another of the successive layers. For the same reason, the machine would be able to travel through the atmosphere at enormous speeds without overheating: the frictional heat, instead of being concentrated on the skin of the vessel, would be dispersed in the vast volume of air drawn along by the force field. 

Along the same lines are the theories of Cramp, McCampbell and Hill: some form of acceleration-type field is used to push aside air well ahead of the craft, streamlining the air flow, and allowing the craft to slice through the partial vacuum created with a minimum of friction and noise. Hill (a famous aerodynamicist in his day) mathematically demonstrated how a supersonic shock wave would be converted to subsonic airflow using such a system. Like Plantier, Oberth and Hill believed saucers used a still-unknown acceleration-type field to accomplish this.

Ideas on UFO propulsion, along the lines of "gravity-type force field", since the 1940s (sorted chronologically):

• Lt Plantier of the French Air Force, first published his theory in "La Revue Mensuelle de l'Armee de l'Air," #84, September 1953, the monthly review of the French Air Forces. - ufologie rr0. He further developed it in his book "The Propulsion of the Flying saucers," Mame, Paris.
• Prof. Hermann Oberth, visionary pioneer of modern rocketry, whose 1922 doctoral thesis on Rocketry was rejected, and who hired Werner von Braun as his assistant in the 1930s, said this about UFOs:

  "UFOs are propelled by distorting the gravitational field, converting gravity into useable energy. With the ability to create their own gravitational fields, UFOs would be able to do all the things witnesses had attributed to them: hover motionlessly, accelerate at tremendous speed, make violent turns that would cause ordinary craft to disintegrate.

• Wilbert Smith (former Head of Canadian UFO Project "Magnet" 1950-1954) - archive
• Dr.Paul Santorini: Greek physicist, "Manhattan Project" scientist (Santorini had been a developer of the proximity fuse on the first A-bomb and held patents on guidance systems for Nike missiles and radar systems), born 1893 died 1986. He researched UFOs in Greece in 1947, after several sightings over Thessaloniki (my town) on 1-Sep-1946, thought to be Russian missiles flying over Greece. In a Feb-1966 interview to journalist K.Meraneos of national TV/Radio, he reported that "Ghost rocket" UFOs investigation in Greece was stopped and results were suppressed, after intervention by "foreign officials" (USA). He also refers to French Plantier and his hypothetical gravity-like "Plantier force" and his "flying saucer physics" are very close to the ones outlined by Paul R. Hill.

• Jack Sarfatti:

  The UFO must follow a self-generated self-steered timelike geodesic so that there is complete free float weightlessness inside it for all objects in it with small tidal force. This is Paul Hill's "acceleration field propulsion" seen in Alcubierre's warp drive. How to make the exotic support regions is the key of course. 

Antigravity and conventional physics: In both Newton's law of gravitation and the general theory of relativity (Einstein's theory of gravitation), a requirement for antigravity to be possible is the existence of negative mass. Most scientists regard negative mass as a purely hypothetical concept with no basis in reality. A related idea that has been discussed by theoretical physicists involves gravitational shielding.

Todo: Look for parallels between experiments with rotating superconductor claims of "antigravity" effects (read Podkletnov-Interview.pdf), with:

1. UFO reports, where eyewitnesses talk about a rotating components - often "flashing", like a spinning ring (sometimes referred to as "catwalk") around the circumference of saucer-shaped UFOs (and even in case of ovals, e.g. Antonio Villas Boas - Brazil 1957, John Weygandt - Peru 1997) or an annular indentation or bulge
2. Alleged abductees describing the inside of a UFO, mention a "tube" or some devices around the circumference (e.g. policeman Sgt Shirmer Dec-1967,)
3. "Vimanas" the mythological flying machines, described in the ancient literature of India (Vedas, Ramayana, Mahâbhârata) which have whole chapters devoted to describing airships [to check: Vaimanika Shastra purportedly an "ancient Sanskrit text" is a "channelled" scam from the 1920s, and has been exposed as a scam by the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore in the 1970s]. I have to rely on translations (of questional reliability) from Sanskrit. Some versions suggest that the story simply tells of airships whose tails spout fire and quicksilver, whereas others go as far as to interpret them as a "rotating mercury engine". Indologist William Clarendon, who has written down a detailed description of the mercury vortex engine in his translation of Samaranga Sutradhara quotes:

   Inside the circular air frame, place the mercury-engine with its solar mercury boiler at the aircraft center. By means of the power latent in the heated mercury which sets the driving whirlwind in motion a man sitting inside may travel a great distance in a most marvellous manner. Four strong mercury containers must be built into the interior structure. When these have been heated by fire through solar or other sources the Vimana (aircraft) develops thunder-power through the mercury.

4. Edgar Fouche's story on the alleged TR-3B deep black US project:

   "A circular, plasma filled accelerator ring called the Magnetic Field Disrupter, surrounds the rotatable crew compartment and is far ahead of any imaginable technology... The plasma, mercury based, is pressurized at 250,000 atmospheres at a temperature of 150 degrees Kelvin, and accelerated to 50,000 rpm to create a super-conductive plasma with the resulting gravity disruption"

Other online resources about possible UFO propulsion system, BUT based only on Physics we know, of pure electric or magnetic effetcs on charged matter (i.e. without resorting to the hypothetical "force field" / "antigravity"). Such are Magneto-[Hydro/Aero]-Dynamics-based, i.e. ionize the ambient medium (air / water)  and then work with magnetic fields. This includes the recent July-2008 announcement of an experimental "Wingless Electromagnetic Air Vehicle" (WEAV) by scientist Subrata Roy of the University of Florida.
[Note: IMHO the following ideas on how UFOs might work, while conforming to the physics we know, do not conform to the evidence. Witnesses invariably report virtually no air displacement / turbulence and noise, and the landing-marks suggest that UFOs are massive -according to Ted Phillips' CPTR soil compression tests where UFOs had landed, never resulted in a craft of under 8 tons-. For a massive MAD-craft to stay aloft, we should be seeing a huge rush of air similar to VTOL aircraft, but with UFOs we don't observe that. Not to mention tremendous accelerations and the apparent ability to disappear]. Anyway, here they are:

• Purely magnetic effects, i.e. a magnetic field, that repells the Earth's natural magnetism. This might hypothetically be via room-temperature superconductors, that may have magnetic fields on the order of 10^6 Gauss (i.e. over a million times higher than the Earth's natural magnetic field) and "mag-lev train"-type modus operandi. This was the assumption of Canadian government's UFO project "MAGNET", run by engineer Wilbert Smith between 1950-1954. Also Dr Pajak "magnetocraft".
• Dr. Auguste Meessen Belgian, professor of Physics at the Catholic University of Louvain and Ufo researcher, formulated a "Pulsed EM Propulsion" model. It involves the action of electric and magnetic fields on electric charges, resulting from an adequate ionization of the ambient air. He also shows how the required, extremely intense, but low frequency field can be produced.
• Stanton Friedman on UFO propulsion - again MagnetoAeroDynamics (i.e. ionize the surrounding medium and then work with electromagnetic fields), gives the example of the EM submarine tested in Santa Barbara, CA in 1966.

  In the mid-1960s and electromagnetic submarine designed by Dr. Stuart Way, who was on leave from Westinghouse Research Laboratory, was successfully tested. It made use of the fact that electric and magnetic fields at right angles to each other produce a (Lorentz) force at right angles to both. The force pushes against the surrounding electromagnetically conducting fluid (seawater) which pushes back and moves the submarine. It is possible to envision an airborne analog in which seawater is replaced by ionized electrically conducting air, and conventional electromagnetic fields are produced by superconducting magnets which need little space, very little power and weight, and generate very high magnetic fields. Substantial research, much of it classified, has been done showing that a magnetoaerodynamic system would be capable of solving all the problems of high-speed flight by controlling lift, drag, heating, and sonic-boom production--all electromagnetically rather than mechanically or chemically. The resulting system would be symmetric, highly maneuverable, relatively silent, often have a glow around it, and be capable of sudden starts and stops. It could carry its own power supply or be charged up on board its mother ship in much the same manner as a golf cart which carries only a storage battery.

  He also contends that the g-forces observed (UFOs have been observed to do 100g's) could be sustainable by living beings, if applied for a very short time, what he calls the "hot potato effect". (more)

• Dr. Barry M. Warmkessel, 2002: An analysis is offered as to how extra-terrestrial alien "saucers" ease their passage through our low atmosphere at supersonic speeds without sonic "booms" and what electromagnetic radio frequencies may leak from their related (and now patented) Aerodynamic Augmentation Device (AAD). Explained are UFO related enigmas like magnetic fields, glowing saucers and the lack of "sonic booms" during high speed encounters. more

There is current fundamental research work by Jack Sarfatti, Harold Puthoff, Bernard Haisch (calphysics.org), Eric Davis, Mark Pesses, Rueda, Tom Valone, Gennady Shipov, Michio Kaku.  Sarfatti in his book "Super Cosmos" (2005) has the most detailed "theory" based on the recent discovery of the repulsive anti-gravity field "dark energy" (of the matter+energy content in the universe, ~73% is made of "dark energy", 23% "cold dark matter" and 4% atoms) that is accelerating the expansion of the 3D space of our universe. Sarfatti also cites Alcubierre's weightless warp drive without time dilation as essential conditions for "propellantless propulsion" in what Puthoff has called "metric engineering." Sarfatti's key idea is that the ship is able to control its own zero-g force geodesic flight path using small amounts of energy. This is controversial ofcourse, but he does have a paper on the physics archive with the mathematics of his theory. Kaku writes of "Type IV" advanced civilization supertechnology that is close to Puthoff's idea of "metric engineering" the fabric of spacetime itself.

The mysterious dark energy, which has puzzled astrophysicists, is actually "zero-point vacuum fluctuations with positive energy density and negative quantum pressure. Dark matter is the same, but with negative energy density and positive pressure. Zero-point energy is 96 percent of all the "stuff" in our visible universe. What controls the sign of the zero point energy density at a given place and time and at a given scale of resolution? That is the 64 trillion dollar question, whose solution is the key to the metric engineering of weightless warp drive and star-gate wormholes.

A Bus-Sized Asteroid Just Passed By The Earth

(Before It's News)

Read also - Sedona, Arizona is a definite draw for Christians and cults leaders

http://www.drturi.com/sedona-arizona-is-a-definite-draw-for-non-cosmic-conscious-cults-leaders/

 

A  bus-sized asteroid passed by the Earth at a distance closer than the moon Saturday — but the more disconcerting part is how little warning astronomers had of the event.

Scientists learned of the 25-foot asteroid named 2014 HL129 just three days before it came within 186,000 miles of Earth. 

The asteroid was spotted by astronomers with the Mt. Lemmon Survey, located in the Catalina Mountains of Arizona.

Watch this animation of HL129′s trajectory:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xki5Q_LRfeg 

Though Saturday’s event was only a close shave, incidents like the 65-foot-wide meteor that crashed in Russia in February 2013 — which went undetected until it was too late — are why NASA and other government space agencies around the world are working to better predict these giant space rocks that can have catastrophic consequences.

NASA’s Near-Earth Object Program estimates that more than 90 percent of the near-Earth objects larger than one kilometer have already been discovered, but 90 percent of those 140 meters or larger are still being tracked down.

Last year, NASA announced the Asteroid Grand Challenge, which encouraged the general public to get involved in the various aspects of asteroid hunting. Watch NASA’s video about this project: 

But what’s to be done if a threatening asteroid is found? NASA is working on ideas to take care of that problem, too. One option includes sending up a weighted robotic spacecraft to collide with the object to send it off course, but this would require years of prior warning. Other ideas involve nuclear explosions or a spacecraft that could serve as a “gravity tractor” and change an asteroid’s velocity just enough to avoid a collision with the planet.

NASA’s Near Object Program has more detailed information about HL129.

Humanoid Incursion Reports 7

(Before It's News)

Here are a few more selected reports that detail real-life incursions / encounters by humanoid beings:

GIANT HUMANOIDS

Manor, Pennsylvania – April 15, 1973 – 11:00 pm

During the night of April 15-16, more than a dozen witnesses reported observations of UFOs in the localized area of Penn and Manor, Pennsylvania, near the larger town of Jeanette. Among these was the report of a single witness who was driving near the Manor Power plant when he observed a large glowing object above nearby railroad tracks, just above the trees. Light from the object illuminated the immediate area, and the witness pulled over to the side of the road and got out for a better look.

The object, no more than a hundred yards from the witness, was about 400 yards to the west of the power plant and approximately 10 feet above the treetops. The illumination was of an intense white, and the object itself completely illuminated but apparently solid in construction and about “3 car lengths” wide. It had a dome like structure on top the same bright color as the rest of the object. Around the main section were 2 or 3 rows of lights, or square windows, of a somewhat multi-color-one whitish, another red and the third a blue or green hue. More interesting than the object was “something” that appeared outside it, similar to the Apollo astronauts that were photographed “walking in space.” From the left side of the UFO a line extended some 30 yards at the end of which floated a form of some 8 or ten feet tall, of a purple or orange color. The witness did not say it was specifically human form, but it did appear to be similar to a human torso. He did not see the attendant object retracted into the UFO; rather it disappeared like “a string of lights.” He had left his lights on and engine running when he got out; 3-4 minutes, the headlights dimmed as low as a weak flashlight.

When the object departed, the lights came back on as bright as before. The object made a high-pitched sound “like a spinning top” when it departed. “You could hear the trees blowing” as it went over them.

THREE VISITORS

Rockville, Virginia – May 11, 1969 – 1:45 am

20-year old Mike Luczkowich, a student at Manakin, Virginia, was returning home after a date with his girlfriend. Just as he passed the Rockville General Store, Mike noticed something about 50 yards ahead of his car. At first he thought it might be a couple of deer, but he soon realized that he was observing two figures about three and a half to four feet tall. The creatures were wearing spherical helmets that looked as large as basketballs. Circling each helmet was a pale green band that reflected the headlights of the vehicle. The beings were motionless at first, but they soon scurried off and ran up an embankment to the left of the witness. The first two creatures had barely disappeared when a third small creature appeared from the right side of the road and quickly joined the others by climbing over the embankment.

Luczkowich reported that the little men were dressed in light-brown coveralls that were somewhat baggy in the legs but were tight-fitting at the ankles. He did not see any arms, and he could not detect features behind the over-sized helmets. The student was shaken by the experience, and he did not tell anyone of the encounter until Sunday.

On Monday, Luczkowich and three other men returned to the site. They were able to locate a definite trail through the poison ivy and honeysuckle on the embankment the three beings had scaled. Beyond the embankment they found a barley field with a path through it, such as the three humanoids might have made. After a few feet they noticed two flattened areas, where small entities might have thrown themselves down in the grain field. The crushed barley at one of the impressions, according to Luczkowich showed the imprint of two small bodies, while another impression outlined one small body. About a half mile west of the area, and about two hours earlier 18-year old Debbie Payne had reported seeing an oval-shaped luminous object over her house as she arrived home from a date. The object appeared rather bright, then dimmed and became bright twice more before she and her date reached the house.

ALIEN ROAD SERVICE

Mtacminda Park, Tbilissi, Georgia (USSR) – July 4, 1989 – 9:00 pm

The main witness was driving a girlfriend home when he experienced car trouble. He left to get water for the radiator and upon returning the girl was gone. Near the park he saw a woman that was apparently trying to stop the car, he kept driving looked back and the woman was gone. He kept driving when the engine of the car suddenly stopped again. He exited the car and felt a strange oppressive atmosphere in the air. He then began to walk on the dark road.

Suddenly 200 meters ahead he noticed a silvery disc-shaped object standing on three metallic legs. The craft was surrounded by multi-colored lights and at the bottom there were stairs and illuminated windows. Standing 15 meters away from the craft were four three-meter tall man-like figures. The witness felt attracted to the figures, and was not scared as he kept walking towards them. One of the figures approached the witness and attempted to establish contact, speaking in Russian the humanoid asked several questions. The humanoids wore a silvery uniform that completely covered them except for their faces, a dark belt, and dark boots. They had dark oval eyes and very small noses. The witness indicated that he was late getting home, one of the humanoids then entered the object and retrieved a strange hand held device with different colored lights and hieroglyphic like inscriptions.

The witness was made to understand that it was some type of phone and apparently he was able to dial his home number. The humanoid then took the instrument away and walked back into the object. Coming out he told the witness that they wanted him to go with them. Inside the object the witness saw a TV like apparatus, where he apparently was able to see his internal organs working. After a while one of the humanoids told the witness that he was free to go home. He exited the object and sitting in his car saw the object retrieve the stairs and lift into the air.

Emitting a low humming sound the object shot quickly away. The car then started and the witness drove home. The witness noticed that all four humanoids had a red colored bulb in their chest area that was apparently used as a transmitting and translating device

WILD GIANTS

Wahiawa, Hawaii – 1973 – late night

Rob Carlson had gone to the river in Whitmore Village with his friends to catch catfish. They laid traps in the river for about an hour, intending to come back in the morning to gather up the fish. As they were busy putting in their traps, they heard a blood-curdling scream. It sounded at first like a wild man screaming in the bushes right next to them. In a state of panic the witnesses began to run. As they got to the top of the hill, running down a little trail, they came to a curve in the path. As they entered the curve, they all stopped dead in their tracks. An 8-foot tall man was walking down the trail, heading right for them. He was naked except for a cloth around his waist. They turned and ran back to the river. As he stumbled down the side of the embankment, a giant woman stepped out from behind a tree. She must have been at least seven feet tall. Turning downriver they ran until they came out of the ravine safely. Giant footprints were found at the site.

THE HEALERS

Jay, Florida – June 1986 – late night

The main witness was sleeping with her young daughter, who was suffering from an in-operable cancerous brain tumor, in her bedroom when she suddenly awoke to see three cloaked beings that were standing at the foot of their bed. They were apparently communicating with each other but not with the witness. When the witness attempted to reach over to touch her daughter she realized that she was unable to move. All she could do was move her eyes. The beings then came over to the side of her bed and a very peaceful feeling came over her, the being that was directly opposite to the witness right shoulder bend over and touched her daughter, and everything went quiet and the witness memory ended at this point.

The next day her daughter experienced a massive nosebleed she apparently expelled a very large blood clot from her nose, almost gagging her. A few months later the witness took her daughter for a new CT scan. Soon she was surprised to learn that her daughter’s tumor was completely gone apparently removed by a laser, according to her doctor (name deleted). Her daughter is now cancer free.

NOTE: This is a somewhat common experience. In the past, I have received 3 private narratives (2 proven with medical evidence) where the witness had been cured of terminal ailments and the physicians had no explanation for the sudden turnaround…Lon

SMALL ELEPHANT TRUNKS

Near Milnthorpe, Cumbria, UK – July 1965 – late night

A couple and their baby son were making an overnight journey when they pulled over for a cigarette break at a rest area. Shortly after pulling in they noticed an intense red light, which appeared lens or domed shaped, behind a nearby dry stonewall. Within this light were three small creatures that seemed to give off a slight green luminescence. The humanoids were described as having large round staring eyes and a long nose that looked like a “small elephant trunk” with a mouth that appeared as just a slit. They had large heads and almost turnip shaped, and their bodies were round with hands with digits that were not defined. Two of the three entities had their arms held out in front of them as if gesturing. No definite muscle tone or bone structure was seen, and they did not appeared to be wearing any clothing. The humanoids appeared about 15 feet from the car in front of the wall when the object’s brilliance was noticed.

Both witnesses became frightened and drove off without seeing the humanoids depart. Later both witnesses felt silly for reacting in a frightened manner towards the creatures, because they had an impression that they meant no harm.

Matty Beckerman – Director of Alien Abduction – May 5, 2014

(Before It's News)

Open Minds UFO Radio: Matty Beckerman produced and directed the new movie Alien Abduction, which also includes the Brown Mountain lights mystery. In fact, he got the idea for the movie from stories of strange lights and disappearances in the Brown Mountains of North Carolina. Beckerman says when he first started looking into the mystery to prepare for the filming of the movie he was skeptical. However, now he has seen the lights himself and is convinced that not only are the Brown Mountain lights truly an anomalous phenomena, but alien abductions are really too! We talk to Beckerman about the making of Alien Abduction, and the experiences and research that changed his mind about extraterrestrial visitation and UFOs.

Daily 2 Cents: ‘The Bridgewater Triangle’ Film — Brazilian Fan Killed By Flying Toilet Bowl — ‘Man, He’s Ugly!’

(Before It's News)

‘Bridgewater Triangle’ film cites litany of mysteries

NOTE: Film director Aaron Cadieux and paranormal / Bridgewater Triangle investigator & author Chris Balsano will be joining us on Beyond The Edge Radio this Sunday May 11th at 8PM ET on www.para-x.com – you can find the film at The Bridgewater Triangle or at the film’s website…Lon

It was a late-night walk in a Raynham neighborhood silent and still, lost in sleep.

Suddenly, William Russo’s dog, Samantha, began to shake and quiver — as he describes it, “rattlin’ like an old Chevy.”

Russo looked around, listened, and finally heard what was terrifying her.

“Eh wan chu. Eh wan chu. Keahr. Keahr.”

A sort of high-pitched wail.

And then he saw it.

Illuminated in the circle of a street light was a creature unlike any he’d ever seen: 3 to 4 feet tall, potbellied, big-eyed, covered in hair, unclothed.

Later, as he struggled to make sense of what he’d seen, Russo realized that whatever it was, it was beckoning him: “We want you, we want you . . . Come here, come here.”

But he never saw it again.

These are the sorts of stories — seemingly endless and diverse, bizarre and flouting reason — that emanate from the so-called Bridgewater Triangle, the subject and title of a full-length documentary by local filmmakers Aaron Cadieux and Manny Famolare (to whom Russo told his story).

The film, making the rounds in local screenings, weaves history, paranormal research, first-hand accounts, police reports, and urban legends as a means to explore, if not completely make sense of, the “how” and the “why” of this infamous area’s multitude of unexplained phenomena.

“Our goal was to present information from eyewitnesses and experts in a neutral, journalistic way, and let the viewer make their own determination,” said Cadieux, a Dartmouth resident.

Local residents will have several opportunities to see for themselves, with a free screening at 6 p.m. Tuesday at the Raynham Public Library, as well as a Dead of Night Tours presentation at 8 p.m. Friday at the Trask Museum in Plymouth, and a 7:30 p.m. showing May 16 at Uplifting Connections in Bridgewater.

You may have heard some of the stories. The 200-square-mile Bridgewater Triangle, whose rough borders stretch from Abington to Freetown to Rehoboth, abounds with them — apparitions, UFOs, Bigfoot, killer dogs, mystical creatures, enormous birds and snakes, satanic rituals, disappearances, murders.

Cryptozoologist Loren Coleman thought up the ominous name in his 1983 book, “Mysterious America.”

“It’s becoming one of the preeminent paranormal stories in the world,” Tim Weisberg, host of the radio show “Spooky Southcoast,” says in the film.

The cinematographically rich documentary, narrated by John Horrigan, started out as a practice film more than a decade ago. While a student at Fitchburg State College, Cadieux made a 30-minute short about the triangle.

But the film got passed around and generated so much interest that in 2010, when he was a professional filmmaker with his own production company, Bristol County Media LLC, Cadieux set out to make a full-length version.

Around the same time, Famolare, a lifelong East Bridgewater resident, was looking to do a similar project; the two eventually teamed up.

Like many people growing up in the area, Cadieux, who lived 6 miles from the Freetown-Fall River State Forest, had always heard the stories, but never experienced anything firsthand.

“I consider myself a skeptic when it comes to this stuff,” he said. “The Bridgewater Triangle is an interesting topic, but it takes a lot to convince me.”

Famolare, on the other hand, likens the proliferation of tales to the smell that permeates a house even years after its cigarette-smoking denizens have left.

“The amount of stories that come out of there, and the consistency of stories — there is something with that area,” he said. “I do think there are some things that are definitely overexaggerated. But there are stories that are very believable.”

According to the film, the most “active” spots are the Freetown-Fall River State Forest and the roughly 17,000-acre Hockomock Swamp, which extends into Bridgewater, East Bridgewater, Easton, Norton, Raynham, and Taunton.

According to Weisberg, “Hockomock” was Algonquin for “place where spirits dwell,” and it became a hiding place for Native Americans after King Philip’s War in the late 17th century.

Some credit the pervasive, unexplained happenings to the mistreatment of the Native American population at the time. Entire towns were destroyed, innocent women and children were slaughtered, and, ultimately, 5 percent of the region’s residents — of all backgrounds — were killed. The Colonial forces eventually prevailed, capturing King Philip — who was drawn, quartered, and beheaded — and selling surviving non-Christian Native Americans into slavery, according to the film.

Within the Hockomock Swamp, there have been reports of dancing orbs of light, raptors with 12-foot wingspans, snakes “the size of stovepipes,” red-haired orangutans, “ravenous red-eyed cats,” black panthers and mountain lions, and, most consistently, Bigfoot, the film says.

In the early 1980s, the Boston Herald interviewed now-deceased West Bridgewater resident John Baker about his purported brush with the hairy beast.

“Something was following me and I knew it was big,” Baker is quoted as saying in the story, which is read by its author, Ed Hayward, in the film. “I knew it wasn’t a human because when it passed by me, I could smell it. It smelled like a skunk, musty and dirty, like it lived in the dirt.”

Other headlines over the years blared: “Mysterious Balloon over Bridgewater!” “UFOs over Randolph? Some Persons Say Yes!” “Killer Dog Eludes Abington Police!”

In the 1970s, UFO sightings were rampant. Former WHDH reporter Steve Sbraccia recalls in the documentary that, while driving along Route 106, he saw an illuminated object resembling a baseball home plate and as wide as five side-by-side 747s hovered and then took off.

Elsewhere, there have been reports of lingering and mischievous apparitions, phantom hitchhikers and antagonistic ghost trucks, drums and voices speaking Algonquin, and fires that gave off no heat, smell, or smoke. Others have sworn to have seen puckwudgies, 3-foot-tall beings with magical powers associated with Wampanoag folklore.

In the Freetown-Fall River forest, meanwhile, police have investigated a series of satanic activities, most of them in the 1970s and the 1980s. According to police reports, the murders of three women were linked to satanists who held rituals there, a dozen baby calves were slaughtered, birds were sacrificed in the center of pentagrams, animal bones of all types were discovered, and graves (both mausoleums and pet cemeteries) were robbed.

The filmmakers themselves recalled how their lights went on and off of their own volition while filming, and batteries drained much faster than usual.

As Famolare said, the stories are so copious that the documentary could be 60 hours long.

“Whatever it is, we keep talking about this region for some reason,” said a well-known paranormal researcher, Jeff Belanger. “And the reason is, something real happened here. There’s no other way. You take away the real events, and it’s just a story. Stories go away.” – Boston Globe

Brazilian Fan Killed By Flying Toilet Bowl

A football fan in Brazil has been killed after he was struck on the head by a toilet bowl hurled from a stadium in the World Cup host city of Recife.

The man died on Friday night after a large fight erupted following a match between Santa Cruz and Parana at the Arruda Stadium, across town from a brand new World Cup venue.

A police officer at the scene said fans inside the stadium ripped out three toilets from a lavatory and threw them from the stands at rivals on the streets below.

He said one hit and instantly killed the fan.

Brazil’s Tribunal for Sporting Justice has opened an investigation and ruled the stadium be closed pending its outcome.

Recife has built a new stadium, the Pernambuco Arena, for four World Cup matches in June and July on the northeastern city’s outskirts.

The country is scrambling to get ready to host the tournament but preparations have been marred by delays, costs and several fatal accidents.

Fifa President Sepp Blatter has told fans to be optimistic that Brazil’s hosting of the event will be a success, despite growing concerns over security and public unrest. – SKY

Shrimper who caught rare goblin shark: “Man, he’s ugly!”

He has a face only a mother could love — a mother who lives 1,000 to 3,000 feet under water and voraciously feeds on live squid and fish.

We’re talking about a goblin shark — only the second member of his species ever caught in the Gulf of Mexico, and the first since 2000, shark expert John Carlson said.

“Beauty is in the eye of the beholder,” Carlson, a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration research biologist said. “Some would call them ‘ugly.’ I think, ‘interesting.’”

Carl Moore, 63, of Townsend, Georgia, was the unlikely archeologist of this ichthyological wonder, which he estimates was 18 to 20 feet long. He caught it on April 19, about halfway through an 18-day fishing trip.

Carlson guesses it was closer to 15 feet, with the largest goblin shark ever measuring 18 feet.

Moore decided an exact appraisal wasn’t in his best interest.

“I was going to take the tape measure, then he flashed around again. I said, ‘Forget the measurement. That thing’ll eat me up!’”

Moore has been shrimping the Atlantic and the Gulf for 50 years, with a short break for a stint in the Air Force, and he’s “caught so much weird stuff: sawfish, Bahamian anglefish, loggerback turtles weighing 1,000 to 1,500 pounds.” But when the goblin shark spilled out of his trawling net full of royal red shrimp, Moore felt “disbelief.”

“First thing I told them boys was, ‘Man, he’s ugly! Looks prehistoric to me,’” Moore said.

Goblin sharks do resemble some prehistoric species, and Carlson said Moore made a “pretty important find.” They’re not seen anywhere all that often, though the coast of Japan boasts the shark’s share of recorded sightings.

“We don’t know a lot about deep water fauna,” Carlson said. “We know little about (goblin sharks) — how long they live, how fast they grow.” One thing that’s fairly certain: At their size, goblin sharks have few natural predators, according to Carlson.

The photographs Moore provided to NOAA will help expand that knowledge. Carlson said he and a colleague now are writing a paper on goblin sharks to submit to a scientific journal.

And Carlson can thank a 3-year-old boy for that. Moore just recently began carrying a camera with him on his shrimping expeditions. He wants to share pictures of what he does with his grandson Keaton, who turns 4 on Wednesday.

Moore released the shark after getting photographic evidence of his — and just about anyone’s — greatest fish story ever.

“Anything that’s alive we try to put back in the ocean,” he said. – CNN

U.S. MILITARY WITNESS AN ALIEN CRAFT OVER KABUL IRAQ

(Before It's News)

MAY 10, 2014             KABUL IRAQ

Hello I’m an ARMY Veteran that witnessed a UFO while working security for the Special Forces. Sometime in 2004 we  seen this huge craft that hovered above us. It was so close I could have thrown a rock and hit it. It seemed like it came outta no where. It floated over one of the mountain’s from the south, east of the base we built. It made no noise and you could not see it with the naked eye. How we seen it was, threw night vision goggles. It looked like a light bulb but it was a sphere. You could almost see threw it, but it was glowing. It lite up the ground with its I.R. lights but you could not see this craft with out that night vision. When we seen this thing everybody stopped and was like amazed, are in awe as we observed this craft. It was hovering about 50-100 ft. in the air its speed was around 5-10 mph. Its was about 100 yards from the outside perimeter of our base camp the west side of our base. It hovered for about a mile north of us and our camp and as we was watching this craft our commander was inside the base camp about a 1/4 mile to the south/east of our position also seeing this craft and he got on the radio and announced to get back to work its nothing. The craft everyone’s looking at. I was a on the mark 19 we had it mounted on the back of a Humvee. My squad leader was in the passenger seat and a friend of mine was in the driver seat. We was pulling roaming security from one traffic control point to the other from the south of the base to the north of our base camp. AFTER our commander said get back to work we watched this craft for about 10 more mins before we had to turn around and head back north. The craft stopped about 1/4 mile northeast of our position and it stopped an a camp fire that these goat/cow hearder’s had made. The ufo shot out a beam at the hearders camp but we couldn’t see the base of the fire just the flickering of it on the backside of the mountain. We was cut off from seeing what they was doing with that beam of light. In the mean time my squad leader stopped watching and wanted to go back to work so the specialist turned the Humvee around and we started driving north to the north T.C.P. and I wanted to finish watching this craft but we lost sight of it when we left. A hill was blocking our view the same hill that was blocking the beam that we seen. After a min of driving north I seen that it took off from the hearders camp. It took off so fast at a 90 degree angle straight up into outter space. It seamed like the lights on the craft had a delayed reaction cause the craft took off so fast. Like its lights took a few sec’s to catch up to the craft. It left at an alarming rate it made dashes of light into the sky, never to be seen again. First time I told any one about this beside my family. This is just a brief description of what happened. I wanted to try and make a 3-d recreation of what happened.  NOTE: The above image is a rendering.

Skeptics, Copyrights and Proof

(Before It's News)

There seems to be some confusion among skeptics as to exactly how copyrights prove the authenticity of the Billy Meier UFO contact case. Naturally, skeptics are confused, especially whenever the Meier case is brought up because they’re so strongly invested in proving it wrong, a hoax, etc., that they forget that real scientists don’t approach extraordinary claims with special skepticism or prejudice because they know that scientific principles, properly applied, are quite sufficient to determine the authenticity of any claims.

Skeptics also love to offer specious, ignorant arguments that “copyrights don’t prove anything”. What they should say is that copyrights in and of themselves don’t prove the accuracy of the information that has been copyrighted. But, blinded by their determination to cling to their religious beliefs, facts be damned, they overlook the clear and simple beauty of just how the Plejaren used our own, terrestrial legal standard for ironclad proof of first and/or prior publication to answer all arguments.

In case it still isn’t clear, this is how one can know within a matter of minutes that the Meier case is authentic, true and real, etc.

I’ll use a couple of the many examples that I often refer to, i.e. the information about Mercury’s core causing the contraction of the planet’s surface and the information pertaining to the death of the 5,100 year old Iceman. Here we have credible evidence, in the form of copyrights, that the information was published long before “official discovery”. And the truly important point of course is that the information was later independently corroborated by the so-called new discoveries.

The copyrights established that the prophetic and predictive information was verifiably previously published by Meier…and the subsequent discoveries confirmed its accuracy. Really, can it be any clearer than that? Because it can’t, skeptics will try to obfuscate, quibble, deny, etc., etc., and avoid the unavoidable and otherwise inexplicable reality that this man, Billy Meier, somehow published the information before our vaunted scientists did. If indeed Meier didn’t just make a couple of “lucky guesses” (another skeptical assumption) then how else can one credibly explain all of the prophetic, impeccably accurate scientific information that he began publishing decades ago other than by what he, and the evidence, have been stating for decades: it was provided to him by extraterrestrial human beings?

The skeptics don’t dare go with the notion that maybe he’s just an astoundingly great…psychic, because they also “know” that’s “impossible” too. So they’re left with one of their favorite principles, Occam’s Razor. And in this case, since it’s so uncomfortable for them, they really don’t like adhering to even their own principles.

When Meier’s verifiable accuracy is simply too much for the know-it-alls, they turn to facetious challenges for “proof” that he published earlier information, such as from 1951, 1958, etc., in those years. Of course the easiest way to prove the 1958 publication date would ultimately rest with…copyrights! Even if such documentation was available the disingenuousness of the person who asks for it – but tries to dismiss all of the other copyrighted proof – is nakedly obvious.

People like this are also often quick to accuse Meier of lying and other unsubstantiated offenses. They obviously not only believe the lies they create but they feel no restraint in making such unwarranted attacks on his character. Since there is no evidence of Meier lying and, to the contrary, his verifiable record is one of truthfulness, we have no reason to ascribe to him the kind of dishonest behavior that such individuals are obviously most personally familiar with, i.e. being liars, and often anonymous cowards, frauds and phonies themselves.

(Of course using a screen name is a form of lying. But that doesn’t seem to trouble a lot people. The idea that a screen name protects one from the “powers that be” is nonsense in a world where we already know the government snoops in everyone’s computer, cell phone, etc. And what kind of a person doesn’t want to be known to their peers as open and honest and courageous enough to stand up for what they espouse claim, etc.?)

As I’ve also pointed out before, there is a fairly simple way to confirm the veracity of the dates of Meier’s earliest prophecies. While there are no remaining originals with copyrights for the prophecies from the 1950s, when specific events foretold within them occur after the earliest verifiable print and/or online publication dates, people will then have the irrefutable proof they want.

But since those people are the ones still effectively “holding out” because they can’t reason anyway, it will be both “not enough” and…too late.

When it Comes to Orbs Size DOES Matter - PART I

(Before It's News)

I first became aware of the existence of orbs when I was 23 years old. I was a young married woman with a small child living on Long Island New York.

My husband was a Vietnam War veteran and we were starting our new life outside of the military together with our toddler son. We were living on the top floor apartment of a two family house located in the town of Babylon New York which is located along the south shore coast of Long Island.

Life was going along as one would expect for a young couple trying to adjust from being a military family back in to civilian life. We were doing OK. We were making ends meet and had a nice place to live and a happy little boy to fill our time.

We liked the place where we were living as it had a large deck off of the kitchen which had a stair case leading to a small but nice fenced in backyard for my son to run around and play happily with his trucks and toys. We especially liked the fact it was surrounded by a wooded area on our bedroom side of the house which made it private and quiet at night. Life was going well until the Orb visited.

One August summers night around ten PM I was in my bedroom reading before getting ready for bed. My son was long asleep down the hall in his room and I was enjoying some time to myself before going to bed doing what I loved most which was reading. I remember my husband calling down the hall asking if I wanted my ritual cup of tea I usually indulged in before bed. I walked in to the hall not to wake my son and nodded yes to my husband who retreated back into the kitchen to turn on the tea kettle while locking up for the night.

I remember that I was wearing a long peasant dress which was in fashion at the time and threw the long tee shirt I slept in on to my bed but remained in my peasant dress for reasons I have long forgotten. I say this as I remained in that peasant dress for the remainder of what took place that night.

As I walked back into my bedroom I walked back around to my side of the bed which was on the side of the room with a large window that faced a group of tall pine trees. The trees were on a small plot of heavily wooded land that separated the house I lived in from the neighbor next to us.

As I passed the window something caught my eye. I stopped and walked up to the window to see what it was. As I stood against the window I found I was looking at a round glowing ball of light about the size of a dodge ball or large ball you would play with in a pool. It was just hanging in the tree looking in to my window. It was very odd as it looked to be filled with some type of gas or moving material. Today we call it plasma. Years ago there was nothing like this seen or talked about so I had no idea what I was looking at. I watched this thing hovering in the tree for a few seconds as I immediately started to fill with a deep fear that I did not know what it was and it was without question looking back at me. I called for my husband who was walking down the hall towards our room with my mug of tea in his hand. As soon as he entered the bedroom I called him to the window and pointed to the red Orb looking back at us from the trees.

My husband stood there for a few seconds looking at this thing before whispering to me almost so this thing could not hear – “What the hell is that?” He talked more to himself than to me about who would place a light in the tree like that and how was it that it was hovering in midair as we both stood staring at this thing. Suddenly the red orb started to move slowly from the tree more towards our window still hovering silently in the summer night with its swirling interior looking at us as we looked at it.

I started to feel dizzy as if I was going to faint and told my husband I had to lay on the bed. He wanted to go outside and see what the thing was with his hunting rifle but I grabbed his hand and begged him not to leave me or our son alone in the house or to go outside alone. I asked him to call the police as it must be someone doing something crazy in the neighborhood.

My husband started to stumble around the room as if the floor was moving beneath him. The last thing I remember is that he sat next to me on the bed holding his head.

We both woke up the next morning laying fully dressed on top of our bed. We never got into the bed or took off our clothes. My tea sat on the table next to my bed untouched and my husband woke with his shirt on backwards. We both felt disoriented and ill. I threw up and my husband had trouble with his balance for about an hour. We ran to our son’s room who seemed perfectly fine and without any harm.

My husband went outside and searched the entire area for a sign of what it was that we encountered in the tree the night before. He could not find any sign of that orb at all. He climbed in to the trees and questioned the neighbors, no one had any idea what he was talking about.

As the days passed I started to have one flash back memory of walking as if in a trance out on to our backyard second story deck. I was walking behind my husband. I could feel my peasant dress blowing and my hair as if there was a breeze blowing on us. I could feel a glow of some kind of light surrounding us. My husband could only recall fear. He told me he felt as he did when he was deep in battle in the jungle.

I never did see that red Orb again but I do know it changed my life forever. Whatever took place that night made a drastic change in my husband’s personality. We did not remain married and I do not blame all of that on the red orb I will however say without question it had a part in changing us both forever.

I have been sent many reports over the years about red or orange Orbs about the size of the one I encountered from people who discovered them hovering in their yards , fields and more often looking inside of their homes and peering in through windows. I believe this type of Orb is used for surveillance purposes. I also think if it has the opportunity it does interfere possibly with people physically. That is left to opportunity and chance.

I have been sent or told about orbs of this style and size from people living all over the world and in all kinds of living environments from large isolated farms to crowded city high rise buildings. Not that many years ago a woman wrote me a letter describing how she watched a red Orb hover outside the large window of an apartment about 30 stories in the air watching the people inside obviously without their knowledge. The Orb hovered swirling in silence peering into the high rise building for about ten minutes. The woman called the police who did not respond to her call to her knowledge and also called the doorman’s desk of the apartment building that had the apartment located in it that the Orb was looking in to. By the time someone responded to her request that this oddity be looked into the Orb in her own words “Silently floated away and up into the sky “.

I have no idea what this type of Orb is. I do not who controls them or what they are used for. I can only tell you from seeing one with my own eyes that they do exist and can be dangerous.The next type of Orb that I find to be most common and widely reported are the smaller soft ball to golf ball or even smaller white or light colored glowing balls of light. I have found that most of the reports that I have been sent or that I have read about concerning this type of orb have more of a spiritual definition. They are often caught by photo or video by those who are engaged in ghost research or those who are having interaction with spirits of those who have passed away.

I do know that I have heard many stories of small orbs being seen by those who have lost a close loved one which makes me believe it is the energy of that loved one staying with the ones they love during times the ones they left behind may need them. I think that entering the dimension in which we live may be difficult for the energy of human life and manifesting as an orb of light a way for them to interact in our living reality.

This however is not limited to loved ones and spirits we want to interact with. It seems that many energy forms that once may have lived in human form linger among the human dimension for reasons we can only assume or try to understand. You will see evidence of this in the ghost hunter communities where there is no shortage of orbs of light being videoed or caught in photos while the hunters are actively investigating areas thought to be haunted.

It seems apparent that the energy of human life can develop the ability of showing as an orb of light or energy once they leave the human life form. I simply think of this type of orb as being part of the spiritual realm and very different from the red orb I encountered or the larger craft size orbs that are seen all over the world.

The fact remains we do not know for sure due to the lack of serious investigation what any of the Orbs are that live float and seem to watch us come from or what they want or if they are living creatures or mechanical devices.  

My feeling is that the Orbs are from many different sources ranging from spirit energy to multidimensional roots that are able to cross over to our realm to observe how we maneuver in our dimension. I do know the most commonly reported Orb is that of the smaller white ones. I can only logically believe they come from many sources starting with spots on lenses or reflection of light source from the point of being videoed or photographed to spiritual or dimensional visitors.

Whatever the source of this type of Orb or for that matter any type of size of Orb I caution anyone who has an encounter or sighting to follow all rules of safety as one thing remains true in all of these cases. That fact is that one really knows exactly what these objects are or why they are here. It may be a simple sign of reaching out from a loved one who has passed away however it could also be an energy from something more sinister or here for reasons that may be harmful or not for the good of those around them. Always deal with these strange objects with great care and in all cases the best advice would be to quickly leave the area when dealing with that which is unknown.

I do feel that this type of type of Orb is an energy or life form that is trying to interact with us in our form as living humans. It makes it a curiosity that easily draws us to wanting more information which may tend to allow us to make choices that could prove dangerous. Please keep this in mind if you find you are the one facing a strange ball of light or Orb and know that is could be the energy of a loved one or that of an entity you would not want to deal with and need to keep safety and caution first in dealing with them,

The last type of Orb I want to discuss is in my mind without question a craft. This type of Orb is reported in sizes from that of a small car up to the size of a football field. They are seen flying often in formation with other Orb crafts and seem to without question be under intelligent control.

I have had reports of this type of craft sent to me often over the past few years. Many of the Orb craft UFO objects that have been reported to me have been seen coming from or going out towards the Atlantic Ocean however I know they are being seen all over the world.

I know that this type of UFO Orb object is solid in color and that the colors range from white and yellow to reds and oranges. I have been told that the interior of these large craft size Orbs seem to of a gas or plasma nature making them swirl or seem gas like instead of a solid metallic type of material.

I have spoken to people who thought these large UFO style objects seem to have a living feel to them which made them believe they were either made of living material or part living and part machine in nature.

My family and I did see a group of this type of UFO Orb after hurricane Sandy and also viewed the gaseous interior of the Orb and felt that it did have an organic living feel and look to them but also were without question organized piloted machines that were flying in formation.

Like the other reports the Orbs we encountered over Long Island New York the objects flew without any sound and were unlike any other lights we have ever seen in the sky as you could look into the bright red or white swirling light of the craft without the glare that other lights of the same size would react with the human eye. You did not have to blink or adjust your eye as you were able to easily look directly into the light.

I have been told by those who have sent me reports concerning this type of UFO Orb craft that these large Orbs will stop instantly during their flight to hover over and observe the people they find who were caught watching them fly over them. I also was told that the people did feel great fear and danger when this occurred and were greatly relieved when the object or objects would regroup and continue on their way after a short time of observing the humans who were watching them pass over. In all cases those who reported these encounters all felt that the Orbs were deciding if they wanted to continue or engage in contact with the people they hovered over.

I believe that this Orb type of craft is an alien or dimensional craft that is not only here to observe but in some cases have encounters with us. I find this type of craft may be some kind of living creature and may function on its own or simply be made of a living kind of material and is piloted by a life form we are not yet aware of. I do not think they are the same as other UFO or alien or dimensional life forms. I do think they are something different. I believe we have many different types of life or energy intelligent sources that do visit and observe what goes on with planet earth and the humans and other life that covers this planet.

One day we may understand a great deal more about these things but for now I fear we will stay as we are with miles to go before we are able to grasp the workings of other life forms or the facts of the universe, dimensions and time that is around us.

I do know we need to concentrate on the world we live on and need to understand it before we can ever hope to comprehend the outer workings of cosmos. I doubt other advanced life forms who do observe us are as interested in us as we seem to think they are. I have to laugh when I read the self-importance we place on our species and the interest those far advanced have in us. They may use us for biological material or to observe as we evolve but trust me we are still killing machines who cannot live together without war or feed all who do live on this planet and seem to go out of the way to destroy our planet when we really do not need to do so. Look at how we kill and fight over energy sources and refuse to work with what we have due to politics or policies that are keeping us stuck like fools going nowhere fast. I think for now we will continue to be visited by orbs of all sizes, as well as other unknown objects. Some of us will have encounters that are close up and others may end up taken and some never returned. I do not think any of that is due to change for the human race for a very long time. We have miles to go before we can join those who visit us and move on by.

I will post images and past articles with this article on my blog concerning the subject of orbs

ALIEN ABDUCTION AND CAR CHASE IN AUSTRALIA

JANUARY 20 1988     ……      NULLARBOR PLAIN AUSTRALIAJanuary 20 1988 was the day that the Knowles family and their two dogs had an unexplainable experience whilst travelling across the Nullarbor Plain in the early hours of the morning.  At about 4.00am, Faye Knowles and her sons Patrick, 24, Sean, 21, and Wayne 18 were between Madura and Mundrabilla with Sean driving and Patrick next to him in the front seat when a bright light was seen ahead of them. Sean thought the light strange and asked his brother if he thought it was a spaceship. This idea was rejected by his brother, but Sean’s interest was piqued and he sped the car up in order to catch up to the object and get a closer look. At about 20 metres from the object the family say they were confronted with a white blinding light that moved along in front of their moving vehicle. It was about 1 metre wide and described as a. Ufo researchers did manage to obtain samples themselves, which they forwarded to Dr Richard Haines, a NASA scientist at the time, who concluded that the dust taken from the interior of the car was different to the dust sampled from the exterior. Further tests by different analysts have provided no evidence of it being alien or unusual. UFO Research Queensland (Australia) NOTE: The above image is a rendering.

The first thing I want to do before you read this article on Orbs is to be  sure you understand the definition I am referring to when I use the term Orb to describe what I talking about in this article.

When I use the term Orb I am referring to large  objects the size of an  automobile or small airplane. I am not talking about the orbs that those who talk about ghosts, spiritual encounters or other entities describe. The Orbs I discuss in this article are large flying un identified  objects seen in the sky. They are completely different and not connected to the small balls of light seen in houses or yards etc.

I want it perfectly clear this article concerns something far different  which is connected to the UFO anomalies of our time of an alien nature  and not of those connected to ghostly or spiritual unknowns.

With that said let me begin my journey of explaining my experience with this growing concern of Orb shaped flying crafts. During this past summer I wrote a few articles about the constant on going reports of Orb sightings that filled my email box , was left as voice messages or were called in to me from the people living on Long Island here in New York. At first I found it interesting. As the reports continued to come in I started to recognize something very odd was happening, by the end of the summer I could not get away from the continuous reports that Long Islanders were having of large Orbs flying across the Long Island sky.

The reports were all basically the same. Orbs about the size of a small airplane, others compared it to the size of a Volkswagen bug- was being seen mostly along the south shore coast of Long Island. They were silent no noise at all. They were all very bright with no blinking lights or definition. The objects were solid in color with a plasma type swirl at times to its interior. The Orbs would change in color from white to orange and red and repeat this pattern or stay locked in one of those colors. The Orbs flew in formations of two or three up to five at a time and would change direction and formation while flying. They also would stop and hover silently in the air as if watching something before deciding to continue on their journey. One group of men reported a sighting that took place as they stood in fear in a large deserted dark parking lot in Islip New York. While the group of men stood there talking two Orbs circled them above the tree line that surrounded the parking lot. The Orbs stopped circling the men and one Orb hovered over the trees as the other hovered over the men. My guess is that this group of men was very lucky as I think they were in real danger when these Orbs obviously were deciding to have more contact or even take this group of men. Instead after hovering above them the Orbs decided to continue on and gained altitude and continued on their flying course towards the Atlantic Ocean. They were very lucky men. Reports kept coming in and I tried to continue to post them on my site in an effort to inform the public this odd activity was going on over Long Island. I was aware that similar sightings were being reported as well in other parts of the country including a great many over the Pacific Ocean coast line.Since the ocean seemed to be involved as a destination with the sightings here in New York I could not help assume that the Orbs were connected to the open sea as either a sort of highway for their travels or maybe a landing area under the water’s surface. The fact is since I have no idea what these large Orb objects are I can only make guesses about who what or where they come from or why they exist much less why they are flying over Long Island.The summer ended however the Orbs reports continued. I was going to address the issue again in yet another article when life as I knew it was completely changed by the Super Storm of the Century Hurricane Sandy.Long Island along with the eastern part of the United States was hit with a strange huge deadly destroying storm and matters of the paranormal were side stepped while matters of daily survival filled my time.
