Think you've been abducted by aliens? It was probably just sleep paralysis: Psychologist attempts to logically explain 'encounters of the fourth kind'

• Christopher C French, of Goldsmiths, the University of London, explained in an article for The Psychologist why people may be 'abducted' by aliens
• Sleep paralysis - when the brain is working but the body has yet to catch up - could explain experiences of alien contact that people don't remember
• Expert said false memories of close encounters could also be implanted 
• He has also provided explanations for other types of encounters 

By SARAH GRIFFITHS FOR MAILONLINE

Agents Mulder and Scully may have said 'the truth is out there' in the X Files, but it may instead be buried inside the brains of people who claim they have been abducted by aliens.

Those who believe they have had a close encounter of the so-called 'fourth kind' may suffer from false memories or sleep paralysis, a psychologist has claimed.

A rare form of the condition, which can involve hallucinations or the feeling of being dragged out of bed, may explain 'alien abductions' that people sincerely believe happened but can't remember.

People who believe they have had a close encounter of the so-called 'fourth kind', in which they believe they have been abducted by aliens, (illustrated) may suffer from false memories or sleep paralysis according to a leading psychologist specialising in paranormal beliefs

Writing for The Psychologist, Christopher C French, of Goldsmiths, the University of London, who specialises in the psychology of paranormal belief and experiences, said there are plausible explanations for why people 'see' flying saucers and think they have been abducted.

He noted that most of the people making these claims are clinically sane, but their belief in life in outer space may influence what they see or feel in strange situations. 

In 1961, the alien abduction story of Betty and Barney Hill captured the public's imagination.

In 1961, the alien abduction story of Betty and Barney Hill (pictured) captured the public's imagination. They claimed to have spotted a UFO driving from Montreal to New Hampshire and arrived home later than expected, unable to account for the previous two hours

Afterwards, Betty said she dreamt she was medically examined by aliens aboard their spaceship. Years later, when the couple saw psychiatrist Dr Benjamin Simon about marital problems, the revisited the 'events' of the night through hypnotic regression.

They claimed to have spotted a UFO driving from Montreal to New Hampshire and arrived home later than expected, unable to account for the previous two hours.

Afterwards, Betty said she dreamt she was medically examined by aliens aboard their spaceship.

Years later, when the couple saw psychiatrist Dr Benjamin Simon about marital problems, they revisited the 'events' of the night through hypnotic regression.

It is now accepted the technique is likely to result in false memories, instead of recovering true ones.

While of course some people may deliberately fabricate stories and hoaxes, Dr French explained there is a growing body of evidence to suggest some people do suffer from false memories.

A 2003 study showed that dissociativity - detachment from immediate surroundings, - absorption and fantasy-proneness, correlate with susceptibility to suffer from false memories, and the tendency to report paranormal experiences.

As the name suggests, having a so-called 'fantasy-prone personality' (FPP) makes a person more likely to have an 'overactive imagination' or 'live in a dream world'.

This means they can have difficulty differentiating between fantasy and reality and may experience hallucinations. 

More recent research suggested people claiming to have had a close encounter with an alien tend to score more highly when it comes to fantasy proneness than 'control' people.

Some individuals believe they have experienced alien contact but don't remember it.

For example, a person may have 'seen' a UFO then after having a 'missing time' experience, notices bruising on their body.

These are sometimes known as 'bedroom invader' incidents and they may be explained by sleep paralysis - the temporary inability to move for a few seconds just as you are about to fall asleep or wake up.

While this is relatively common and a bit disconcerting, some people suffer from rare forms, which cause them to 'feel' an evil presence or hallucinate by seeing lights or grotesque faces, hearing voices and feeling like they're being dragged out of bed. 

Some experts believe some 'abductions' that a claimant cant remember may be caused by a rare form of sleep paralysis (illustrated with a stock image), when strange imagery, perhaps involving aliens, creeps through into a person's wakeful consciousness, perhaps inducing terror or a belief in abduction

Scientists have a relatively good understanding on why sleep paralysis is caused, Dr French explains.

During deep, or rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, which is associated with dreaming, the body's muscles are paralysed, perhaps to stop people acting out their dreams.

Sleep paralysis is caused when the mechanisms controlling the sleep cycle are affected so it's as if the brain is working and the body has yet to catch up.

This means strange imagery, perhaps involving aliens, creeps through into a person's wakeful consciousness, perhaps inducing terror or a belief in abduction.

However, Dr French notes we should be wary of proposing a 'one size fits all' explanation for covering what people think of as alien abductions.

Nigel Watson author of the UFO investigations Manual told, MailOnline: 'The sleep paralysis theory is good for explaining what are called 'bedroom invader' incidents, where people wake in the night to see aliens in their bedroom and experience an abduction.

'It is harder to explain abductions experienced by people who are driving in their car at night or in other circumstances.'

He believes there are four reasons for abduction experiences, which interact and overlap with each other.

'A trigger event that could be a misinterpretation of a celestial or aerial object, geomagnetic phenomena, illusion or hallucination,' he explained. 

Dr French notes we should be wary of proposing a 'one size fits all' explanation for covering what people think of as alien abductions. A stock image of a UFO is shown above

'The 'observation' or experience can be due to neurosis or other pathological states of mind, abuse, trauma, stress, sleep paralysis, drugs, sensory deprivation, lack of sleep, dreams, trance states and other psychological factors.'

Alternatively, he said an abduction story can simply be a hoax or invention, or the outcome of hypnotic regression techniques.

He noted: 'The resulting abduction story is told in terms of the UFO mythology, derived from science fiction films and popular culture.'

Le gouvernement Mexicain dévoile des pièces mayas qui prouveraient le contact extraterrestre

Quel est votre point de vue sur la question? sommes nous réellement visité par des entités? Des anciens dieux et créateurs venus du ciel ?

L’âge des artefacts donnerait-il raison à ce verset de l’Ecclésiaste qui nous affirme qu’il n’y a rien de nouveau sous le soleil et que les générations présentes ont simplement oublié ce qui fut (Ecclésiaste: 1:8 à 11).Il ne faut plus se surprendre du dévoilement de ces phénomènes car nous sommes entrés dans les Temps de la Fin et des signes dans le ciel signalés par ces pièces se produisent encore de nos jours et spécialement ces jours-ci avec le passage de la mystérieuse comète ISON qui semble déjouer les meilleurs astronomes de la NASA !!Les Écritures, fidèles à elles-mêmes avaient prédit qu’à la fin des jours alloués à l’administration humaine, Dieu permettrait que les secrets les plus obscurs soient mis en lumière. (Voir Luc 8:17; 12:2; Job 12:22)Pour Pleins Feux sur l’Heure Juste,Pierre J. Gilbert (Marc 13:23)

Pour ceux qui avaient encore des doutes en ce qui a trait aux contacts extraterrestres avec nos anciennes civilisations, cette fois, on ne peut plus clairs ! Le gouvernement mexicain a frappé un grand coup dans l’histoire cachée de l’humanité. Dans la section archéologie oubliée, le pays dévoilera publiquement une série de pièces Mayas découvertes il y environ 80 ans par une équipe du National Institute of Anthropoly and History (INAH) sur le site de  Calakmul au Mexique.Ces pièces exceptionnelles ont déjà été présentées l’an dernier et feront l’objet d’un documentaire qui sortira cet automne et qui sera produit par Raul Julia-Levy et réalisé par Juan Carlos Rulfo, le gagnant du festival Sundance 2006 avec son film « In the pit ». Ce documentaire porte le nom provisoire « Revelations of the Mayans 2012 and beyond »

Contact extraterrestre

Une autre pièce fort intrigante semble représenter une éruption solaire. Le soleil envoie un jet de rayon vers la même planète à atmosphère, soit la Terre, événement régulièrement mesuré par la NASA dont vous pouvez suivre l’activité sur le site Space Weather. Trois OVNIs sont présents sur cet artefact dont l’un est directement dans le jet plasmique. Une autre planète est également présente, mais il est difficile de préciser laquelle de notre système solaire.

Dr. Michio Kaku on Why Aliens May Exist, But Aren’t Landing on the White House Lawn

One of the most renowned figures in science discusses extraterrestrial life, artificial intelligence, and the future of computer technology

A bizarre space anomaly detected by the Kepler Spacecraft has caught the attention of SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence). The institute recently pointed the Allen Telescope Array system 300 miles northeast of San Francisco at the star, KIC 8462852, to test the hypothesis that the anomaly may be a signature of an extraterrestrial civilization.

“If this pans out it could be the biggest story since the invention of the wheel or the discovery of fire—it’s on that scale,” said Dr. Michio Kaku in a phone interview with the Observer. Dr. Kaku is a professor of physics at City College of New York (CUNY), where he holds the Henry Semat Chair and Professorship in theoretical physics. One of the most renowned figures in science today, Dr. Kaku co-founded the String Field Theory, has authored several New York Times best-selling books, and continues Albert Einstein’s pursuit in formulating a theory on everything.

We are arrogant to think that we are so interesting, extraterrestrial beings would travel thousands of light years just to visit us. We’re just not that interesting.

“Or it could be the biggest dud since the Loch Ness monster, and anything in between. Carl Sagan once said, ‘Remarkable claims require remarkable proof.’ So if it is a sign of an extraterrestrial, we have to be able to identify what this object is. One candidate is its evidence of a type-2 civilization. We’re a type zero; we get our energy from dead plants, oil and coal. Type 1 is planetary; they can control the weather, they can control the entire planet. Type 2 is stellar, they control stars like in Star Trek. Type 3 is galactic like in Star Wars. The energy necessary to drop starlight by 22 percent would qualify this as a type 2 civilization—that is, they can play with stars—however it’s a guess as we simply don’t know if it’s truly a signature of an extraterrestrial civilization or if it’s a wild goose chase. We don’t know.”

The possibility that it could be a signature of another civilization has sparked further debate on the validity of the Fermi Paradox. The Fermi Paradox attempts to explain why we are seemingly alone in the universe. Physicist Enrico Fermi believed that if alien societies exist, one of them would have easily colonized galaxies in the span of a few million years. The time scales for colonizing galaxies is miniscule compared to the age of the universe, so if any existed we would have seen some signs of them.

“Some people say if there are intelligent lifeforms out there, and I think there are, How come they don’t visit us? Why don’t they land on the White House lawn, announce their presence and give us their technology? Well, if you’re walking down a country road and you see an anthill, do you go down to the ants and say I bring you gifts, I bring you trinkets, bead, I bring you nuclear energy, take me to your ant queen? Or do we have this strange urge to step on a few of them? If aliens are so that advanced that they can land on the White House lawn, then we are like ants to them, we have nothing to offer them, so the reason that they don’t announce their existence to us is that we’re boring, they’ve seen it all. We have nothing to offer a civilization that advanced and that’s why I think they don’t visit us. We are arrogant to think that we are so interesting, extraterrestrial beings would travel thousands of light years just to visit us. So that’s why they don’t visit us, we’re just not that interesting.”

Most Surprising discovery so far: Rosetta Spacecraft has found Oxygen on Comet 67/P

Scientists in charge of the Rosetta mission have reported they have found OXYGEN in the atmosphere of comet 67/P Churyumov-Gerasimenko and are calling it one of the most incredible discoveries so far. This finding questions all previous models of solar system formation and can affect the way we search for life elsewhere in the universe.

 

The European space probe detected oxygen for the first time in September 2014 shortly after entering into orbit around comet 67/P Churyumov-Gerasimenko but it has taken over a year for scientists to disclose the finding since they wanted to make sure they ruled out possible errors before announcing a discovery of this magnitude.

 

 

The Space probe has studied the comet for over a year and has found an abundance of gases on the comet, among them Oxygen.

 

“The first time we saw it, we all went a little bit into denial because molecular oxygen was really not expected to be found on a comet,” said Kathrin Altwegg of the University of Bern in Switzerland, the project leader for ROSINA, the Rosetta Orbiter Spectrometer for Ion and Neutral Analysis.

 

“It does not sound that spectacular, but it is actually the most surprising discovery we have made so far on 67P,” she said of the comet, which is about to pass the orbit of Mars. 

 

The group of researchers who worked together with scientists from the University Of Michigan (USA), studied the comet and found that the oxygen concentration remains constant over time. Molecular oxygen is common on our planet but extreme rare elsewhere in the universe, as matter of fact, they have only detected molecular oxygen outside of our solar system on two occasion, but never on a comet. Even though on Earth, plants and microbes are responsible for the creation of oxygen, this does not mean that Comet 67P has life on it. However this finding is revolutionary since it breaks a lot of boundaries set by scientists in the distant past and will surely change the way experts look for life in our solar system and universe in general.

 

 

 

Researchers believe that oxygen is present on all parts of comet 67/P and not only on its surface. This is why experts believe that oxygen must have been present on the comet since its creation, that is some 4,600 million years ago, before the solar system formed completely. According to writing in the journal Nature, the oxygen was incorporated into the comet nucleus when the comet was created and has remained ever since.

 

Professor Kathrin Altwegg, project leader for Rosetta’s Rosina mass spectrometer instrument, said: ‘We had never thought that oxygen could ‘survive’ for billions of years without combining with other substances.’ ‘This evidence of oxygen as an ancient substance will likely discredit some theoretical models of the formation of the Solar System.’

 

Comet 67/P Churyumov-Gerasimenko has been full of surprises ever since the rosetta mission approached the comet and the Phiale lander made the historic touchdown on the surface of the comet. The strange shape of the comet is what has puzzled researchers ever since they received the first closeup images of the comet. Among other things, researchers have found that Comet 67/P Churyumov-Gerasimenko sings, has oxygen and some of his areas resemble the pyramids of the Giza plateau.

Insane Real UFO Sightings?!

(Before It's News)

You would think with all the reported sightings, abductions, testimonies, and other potential evidence to the existence of extraterrestrial life that governments around the world would be looking into these matters a bit more seriously. Unfortunately, any information on the subject seems to be labeled as Classified and shut off behind high-security locked doors. Why the secrecy? Could there really be more out there after all? And if there is, why are authorities going out of their way to hide the evidence from the general public? This video details eight reported sightings of UFOs that seem as if they may have actually happened, but just been covered up and written off as a hoax.

UFO INCIDENTS CONFIRMED BY SCIENCE

Warning Humans: Aliens Living With Us

(Before It's News)

Dan Flynn: What will it take for a real investigation and full disclosure on the topic of aliens and UFO activity? Not enough evidence?  Apart from my channel, I work in the entertainment business and keep a low profile, as best as I can. It is there that I find most of the intrigue for want of research.

From the mouths of hall of fame personalities that I`ve met, and other entertainers, I`ve come to learn of the reptilians, and so much more that this channel be the result of those very mumbling`s and rumors that I`ve heard `from behind the scenes. I hope you enjoy what I find to be most intriguing based on those very mumbling`s and rumors.

When it comes to where we `sleep and live,`when does the evidence start to convince the general masses into believing that there are aliens under the bed, `currently,`unknown to us. What does it and what will it take to finally get some real answers?

Ons zonnestelsel had ooit nóg een reuzenplaneet

Canadese onderzoekers hebben aan de hand van computermodellen aangetoond dat ons zonnestelsel ooit nog een extra reuzenplaneet had. Zo’n vier miljard jaar geleden werd de planeet door Jupiter uit het zonnestelsel gegooid.

In 2011 opperden astronomen voor het eerst dat er oorspronkelijk vijf gasreuzen waren in plaats van vier (Jupiter, Saturnus, Uranus en Neptunus). Als er altijd maar vier reuzenplaneten zijn geweest in ons zonnestelsel, zou je Mars en de aarde op een andere plek verwachten.

IJsreus

Onderzoekers zijn er naar eigen zeggen achter wat er met die extra planeet is gebeurd. “Alles wijst in de richting van Jupiter,” zei hoofdonderzoeker Ryan Cloutier van de Universiteit van Toronto. Hij spreekt van een interplanetair potje schaken.

De mysterieuze verloren planeet zou de massa hebben gehad van een ijsreus en dus zwaarder zijn geweest dan Saturnus en Jupiter. Hoe kan een lichtere planeet zomaar een ijsreus uit het zonnestelsel gooien?

Zwaartekracht

Als planeten langs elkaar scheren kan één van de objecten zo’n enorme slinger krijgen, dat de zwaartekracht van de zon geen invloed meer kan uitoefenen op het hemellichaam, aldus de onderzoekers.

“We kwamen tot de ontdekking dat Jupiter in staat is geweest om de vijfde reuzenplaneet uit het zonnestelsel te stoten,” zei Cloutier. De onderzoeksresultaten zijn gepubliceerd in The Astrophysical Journal.

Skull Shaped Asteroid 205 TB145 Is Warning From Aliens, Nov 2015, UFO Sighting News.

Date of photo: Oct 30, 2013 
Location of discovery: Flying past Earth
Name of discovery: Asteroid 2015 TB145
NASA source:  http://www.nasa.gov/feature/halloween-skies-to-include-dead-comet-flyby

This skull shaped asteroid is not the only asteroid ever to appear like a face. Remember the singing asteroid that was sending out radio transmissions for the last 20 years? Thats right, comet 67P is in the shape and shoulders of an alien species. 

But this this skull is different in that it sends a different message than 67P and its greeting. This sends a warning. A warning that this area of space is controlled with force and they are more than happy to prove it. Earth falls into their territory, so yes, they are a threat to us, however other species try to protect Earth. This species that made this skull is dangerous.

These are the dangers humanity will face when exploring space and other worlds. Not all species are kind. Some, like the ones that made this skull, want 100% control or death.

NASA State: 
     The large space rock that will zip past Earth this Halloween is most likely a dead comet that, fittingly, bears an eerie resemblance to a skull. Scientists observing asteroid 2015 TB145 with NASA's Infrared Telescope Facility (IRTF) on Mauna Kea, Hawaii, have determined that the celestial object is more than likely a dead comet that has shed its volatiles after numerous passes around the sun. The belated comet has also been observed by optical and radar observatories around the world, providing even more data, including our first close-up views of its surface. Asteroid 2015 TB145 will safely fly by our planet at just under 1.3 lunar distances, or about 302,000 miles (486,000 kilometers), on Halloween (Oct. 31) at 1 p.m. EDT (10 a.m. PDT, 17:00 UTC). The first radar images of the dead comet were generated by the National Science Foundation's 305-meter (1,000-foot) Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico. 

The radar images from Arecibo indicate the object is spherical in shape and approximately 2,000 feet (600 meters) in diameter and completes a rotation about once every five hours. "The IRTF data may indicate that the object might be a dead comet, but in the Arecibo images it appears to have donned a skull costume for its Halloween flyby," said Kelly Fast, IRTF program scientist at NASA Headquarters and acting program manager for NASA's NEO Observations Program. Managed by the University of Hawaii for NASA, the IRTF's 3-meter (10 foot) telescope collected infrared data on the object. The data may finally put to rest the debate over whether 2015 TB145, with its unusual orbit, is an asteroid or is of cometary origin. "We found that the object reflects about six percent of the light it receives from the sun," said Vishnu Reddy, a research scientist at the Planetary Science Institute, Tucson, Arizona. "That is similar to fresh asphalt, and while here on Earth we think that is pretty dark, it is brighter than a typical comet which reflects only 3 to 5 percent of the light. That suggests it could be cometary in origin –- but as there is no coma evident, the conclusion is it is a dead comet.”

“Foo Fighter UFO” Travels Near the ISS

A NASA feed from the ISS appears to capture a glowing white craft. A second white UFO has been recorded on video close to the International Space Station (ISS) as well. The live stream from the orbiting base shows strange white light glowing in the blackness of space.

YouTube channel Hidden Cams posted the video online on November 4, 2015. It shows the UFO moves out of shot gradually.

It could be a piece of space debris flying around the cosmos. However, it’s the second time in two days that an object has been caught passing the space station.

In an earlier video, camera operator of NASA pans left and then zooms in on a brilliant light.

The UFO looks like one of the fierce foo fighters described by fighter pilots during World War II. Because of the light’s brightness, the camera can’t focus properly.

The object also seems to track the ISS as it is moving at the same speed behind it. The astronauts on board the ISS look like they are showing concern about the glowing object close to them, so perhaps the public should be too.

However, identifying a UFO as a foo fighter doesn’t offer the public much knowledge about it and who controlling it.

Texas Bright Light Turns Out To Be A UFO

A witness from Texas reported that her 10-year-old daughter photographed an unknown bright light from their moving vehicle while in Frisco. They later discovered that the light was a cylinder-shaped UFO, according to the MUFON Case 71761.

The witness and her daughter were travelling south with their car along Warren Street when the latter snapped a photo of the UFO. According to the reporting witness, her daughter was amazed at the brilliant light coming from that side. Her daughter then took out her phone and took a picture. They quickly realized that the direction wasn’t the spot where natural sunlight came from. When the child looked at her phone, she noticed that the mysterious object was hovering to their right side.

They did not see anything in the sky from a distance in the spot where her daughter captured a UFO in a photograph. However, the lights seemed to be so bright when they got closer. That was the time her daughter took a picture of it.

The reporting witness provided one image with the MUFON report, which was filed on 22 October 2015. Texas MUFON investigator Thomas Diamond looked into the case and closed it as Unknown.

Zonnestormen veranderden Mars in koude droge planeet- HLN.be

Bron: AD, Reuters

Mars was in het begin van zijn ontstaan niet zo verschillend van de aarde. © NASA.

NASA Wetenschappers van de Amerikaanse ruimteorganisatie NASA hebben het mysterie van de verdwenen atmosfeer van Mars opgelost. Het is de zon die van Mars de dorre, koude planeet heeft gemaakt die ze nu is.

Satelliet Maven onderzoekt Mars. © NASA.

Sinds de ontdekking dat er ooit op Mars veel water aanwezig was, heeft de NASA last van marskoorts. Een jaar geleden heeft de Amerikaanse satelliet Maven de planeet bereikt en stuurt sindsdien informatie door die nieuwe inzichten geeft over de geschiedenis van de rode planeet.

Wetenschappers gaan er van uit dat Mars vroeger een erg dikke atmosfeer met veel koolstofdioxide (CO2) had. De planeet zou daardoor veel warmer zijn geweest dan vandaag de dag. Nu is Mars een grote koude, droge woestijn.

Zonnestormen

De atmosfeer met de CO2 is waarschijnlijk grotendeels weggeblazen door grote uitbarstingen van de zon. NASA komt tot deze bevinding nadat Maven eerder dit jaar een grote zonnestorm vastlegde.

In tegenstelling tot de aarde heeft Mars geen magnetisch veld om zijn atmosfeer te beschermen, waardoor die kwetsbaar is voor de ultravioletstraling van de zon en ontploffingen van gas en magnetische deeltjes die vrijkomen van de zon tijdens zonnestormen. Op 8 maart kon Maven vastleggen hoe zo'n storm delen van de atmosfeer van Mars wegblies. Die uitbarsting leidde tot dramatische pieken in het aantal zuurstof- en koolstofdioxide-ionen die de ruimte werden ingeblazen. 

Deze bevindingen kunnen wetenschappers helpen te begrijpen hoe Mars van een eens waterrijke, warme wereld, waar misschien zelfs leven mogelijk was, transformeerde tot de dorre woestijn die de planeet vandaag is.

"De belangrijkste vraag die we willen beantwoorden is of het klimaat van Mars veranderde door een verlies in de ruimte of door een ander proces", zegt hoofdonderzoeker van Maven Bruce Jakosky van de universiteit van Colorado. "Door te berekenen hoeveel gas er verloren is gegaan in de ruimte, hopen we te kunnen vaststellen of het om een belangrijk proces gaat."

Bovenstaande video legt grafisch uit hoe zonnestormen de atmosfeer van Mars konden wegblazen.

Noorderlicht

Een andere vaststelling van Maven is dat er op Mars een soort noorderlicht te zien is. Dat 'aura' wordt wellicht veroorzaakt door het magnetische veld in de korst van de planeet, in tegenstelling tot de magnetische polen van de aarde.

Filer’s Files #45 – 2015 Astronauts Saw UFOs - PART II

Sightings of UFOs in the United States

California Strange Lights

Fresno – On October 28, 2015, a UFO moved quickly and disappeared.

It moved to the sun and disappeared.

I saw it floating. At first, I thought it was a plane, but then it moved around so freely. Planes can’t do that.

Note: THE UFO IS NOT A LENS FLARE.

The witness saw the object and described it as unusual.

Thanks to William Puckett, Director UFOsnw

Phelan — I had filmed some neat clouds on October 22, 2015, and a week later, I was showing a friend the different things I had filmed. When we saw, something blink to the left of the screen. We both at the same time said, “What was that?” I replayed it repeatedly and stopped it “frame by frame. When I did that I could not believe what I was seeing was the proverbial saucer shape. She got creepy big time. I had not see it in sky at all as it was moving so fast. I started shaking and was terrified actually. I laughed, then started crying. It has absolutely changed me. I have always believed in extraterrestrials, but damn. It also made a strange sound. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Florida Rectangle

Keaton Beach — My friend and I were fishing in Keaton Beach and after pulling the boat out of the water on October 11, 2015, we noticed a big object in the sky to the west. It was a big rectangular shaped object moving very slow towards the south.

We had no idea what the object was when we first saw it so a UFO came to mind. We took two pictures 40 feet apart from the same road.

The object appeared to be moving the whole 30 minutes that we watched it. We had to leave the area while the object was still in the sky. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Georgia Triangle

Sardis — I got this an hour ago above my house along with a big triangle with orange lights on October 31, 2015

There were huge clouds in the way.

This entry was posted in 2015, Georgia, pictures, Triangular Craft and tagged Orange colored lights.

Thanks to William Puckett, Director UFOsnw

Nebraska Orange Lights

Three orange like glowing objects were observed in a triangular pattern on October 31, 2015.

Thanks to MUFON CMS

Nevada Star

Rachael – I was taking a photo of how vast the desert is on September 6, 2010

This object was not visible at the time the photo was taken.
I told my daughter her windshield was too dirty to take pictures through it, so I made her pull over.

I got out of the car and took this photo.

Thanks to MUFON CMS

New Jersey Metallic Saucer and Floating City

Montvale/Park Ridge — I saw an object that I could not recognize on July 22, 2015 at 10:15 pm. Shortly after I drove north past the Montvale service area of the Garden State Parkway, my view of the object was extremely clear of an object 150 feet across. It was about 1/2 mile away just above the tree line. It seemed to be moving slowly to the north and I was able to get much closer to the object.

It had an illuminated silver-metallic classic saucer appearance with a slightly flattened rim that projected around the middle. As I headed further north, it was brightest on the bottom with a golden glow, fading further up the object to orange, reddish, and then dark on top. It changed to an all dusky orange color with three red lights on the bottom and looked like the planet Saturn with a ring around it. Object is similar to this disc seen over Tennessee. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Ramsey — Traveling south on Route 17, my wife and I observed a city directly ahead of us en-route to the Olive Garden restaurant on October 29, 2015. Floating in the clouds and gleaming with a pinkish, sunset-type hue was a city. The buildings were all in neat rows, and all buildings were rectangular. There were a few that resembled skyscrapers, and there was a very prominent skyscraper in the front middle row of the buildings. There are no cities resembling it in New Jersey or anywhere south of our observed location. Thanks to MUFON CMS

North Carolina Orb

Robbinsville – I went for a short hike with my child on a mountain in Nantahala Forest on November 2, 2015. Taking pictures of flowers and the overcast landscape, I noticed an object as a glare on the lens. I saw it again in a different picture that I had taken a little farther down the trail. So I looked closer at the two pictures and noticed the light had moved down the trail.
I looked at it closely and zooming in on it, I noticed that it had distinct features. It had moved from hovering to the next picture in which it had receded in to the woods. I have no idea what it is but it wasn’t glare or debris on the lenses. It was taken on a Samsung Galaxy 16mp phone.
Many of my friends and family have seen these pictures and none of us can come up with an explanation.
I hope these pictures will help you with your investigations. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Pennsylvania Lights

Levittown — I was inside the house when my son called me to tell me that he could see lights across state lines on October 17, 2015. I tried to debunk it by looking for rays of light from a light show but there were not any that evening. The objects were in white color, circling in which at one point one of them change direction on a dime. Being intuitive allowed me to witness a lot of energy discharge in the air as well as being able to see energy discharge within in the clouds. I felt as though I was in another world to be honest. I came in the house to review my video for 3-5 minutes. I then went outside and they were gone. The clouds and the UFO’s were gone. They came back again and were covered within the clouds that suddenly appeared. Also, being intuitive, I can hear different frequencies and I have heard weird sound waves with what sounds like people mumbling. I only hear again this late at night. Thanks to MUFON CMS

South Dakota Lights

Hartford — Took a picture of the huge harvest moon that night on November 1, 2015.

. The moon is the little red dot at far right. The white lights were not visible to the eye when I took the picture. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Texas Lights

Dallas — Driving into my gated apartment complex, I looked up and saw a chevron shaped formation on October 28, 2015.

The lights were chevron shape and orange-red. The formation did not emit sound.

As I continued to observe, 3-4 solid orange-red “orbs” followed the chevron- equidistantly spaced. I started to record this event with my phone after a minute or so all of the lights disappeared. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Utah Moon

Huntington — On October 26, 2015, I was photographing the sunset I noticed a beautiful moonrise over Cedar Mountain. At 6:40 PM, I used a 150-500 mm Sigma optically stabilized lens with a 1.4 tele-converter attached. With the 0.6X cropping factor of the sensor on the Canon T4i camera the total focal length was 1160 mm at the 500mm setting. I brushed any dust off the lens and noticed a triangular object. Between the first and second photo, I switched the camera to manual in order to bracket exposures. The object moved across the face of the moon and I snapped another picture, which was slightly over exposed. The last image shows the object (shadow?) just right of top center of the moon’s face and disappears following the moon’s curvature. The ISO for all images was 400 and shutter speeds were 1/20th of a second to 1/30th at an aperture of f-9. I am convinced it is an opaque object because the pixels block light reflected from the moon; the dark triangular area appears to be uniform in all the photos and clearly, blocks reflected light.

 Washington Lights

Clinton — My fiancé and I were driving home from on Whidbey Island to Clinton when as we crested a hill on October 27, 2015 and saw five bright yellow objects.

It appeared to be ‘hanging’ in the air over Puget Sound as if the lights were strung together. My fiancé did not see them. As we went down the hill, I lost sight of the lights. I was very curious to see them again, and to have her see them. These lights were not ‘normal’ for the area and they were not aircraft lights or Chinese lanterns. We went to a beach called Double Bluff on South Whidbey Island and the lights were varying their brightness. Initially they just hovered and then slowly moved away. Two remained in view and gradually became much brighter (see photo). Eventually they all gradually faded and disappeared. Then others appeared, and brightened. There were aircraft visible flying into SeaTac Airport. Through binoculars, the objects were emitting too much light to determine their shape, though one suddenly ‘morphed’ into a triangular form. All had a pulsing red light in the center. There was a low constant pulsating bass sound. They were exactly what the term ‘UFO’ means — Unidentified Flying Objects. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Worldwide UFO Reports

Australia Triangle

Stanhope Gardens – I was sitting on my patio at 18:40 hours on December 16, 2013, and noticed a small black object hovering in the sky. The object was hovering in the northern sky.

At first, I thought it may be a kite but it just hung there. I grabbed my iPhone and took three photos at different magnifications.

I watched the object for a while and then went back inside. Next time I came out it was gone. I did nothing about these photos but kept them. Today, I watched a documentary called “The Phoenix Incident” that showed a triangular craft being pursued by an F-15 that reminded me of my photo. The photo was taken with an iPhone. Thanks to Ken Pfeifer MUFON NJ worldUFOphotos

Perth — Green orb photographed on Monday night October 26, 2015 at 8.15 pm, when photographing the Red moon. I noticed after taking pictures that I had two photos with green orb in two positions near the moon Thanks Jim Edwards Ascot W.A.

Canada UFO

Edmonton — We were trick-or-treating in our neighborhood on October 31, 2015. We noticed lights in the sky that were not on a set path. Then we noticed it was getting higher in the sky and flying all over the place. It was excessively fast and way too big to be an airplane.

We stood and watched its three square lights in a row. It also had a slight aura of white light around it. It went from the northeastern horizon to the southeastern horizon, on a crooked path, in two minutes. We were both extremely fascinated and talked about what we saw as we lost sight of it. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Columbia Disk

Ibague — This is an old photo from 1940, I saw as a child in many places in my city.

The object was shaped like a hat. This photo was taken with an old box camera.

I find it curious, because people at that time did not think about spaceships or anything like that.

I do not think it is a setup; people see that photo and do not notice that there is something there. Thanks to MUFON CMS

India Bright Object

Bangalore Hsr Layou — I just returned from my work around 5 am, on October 29, 2015, decided to smoke after a hard day at work.

While smoking I observed a bright object hovering above the moon and flashing lights. I took a picture of it as it hovered for a minute. When I decided to take another snap, it was gone.

It was clear sky with no trails of cloud anywhere. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Italy Light

Catania, Sicily — During my daily early morning check on internet for seismic events in the Mediterranean area, On October 30, 2015, I noticed in the INGV (Italian National Geology and Vulcanology) these pictures running from 0642 to 0654 hours local where a green cone shaped bright object appeared clearly. After 0700 hours, the object was not seen any longer.
The object was seen at the volcano peak where several active vents are open.

The thermal digital pictures were taken by the EMCT (Mount Cagliato thermal images) camera. A constant watch of the volcano could be kept on the INGV cameras here: Thanks to MUFON CMS

Mexico Rhomboidal UFOs

Ecatepec — The presence of these anomalous objects was visible, since the air show and flights had been cancelled. A rhomboidal UFO was sighted over the Tablas del Pozo district of Ecatepec, Mexico State, by UFO hunter Salvador Ramirez on October 10, 2015. He had recorded a large brown UFO hanging in mid-air at low altitude. The UFO displayed considerable stability in spite of the prevailing winds, thus dispelling the possibility that it could have been a balloon, as the object retained control of its movements.

At that very same time, the Mexican Air Force was holding an air show celebrating the 205th year of the Independence of Mexico. All aircraft other than military were forbidden to fly over the area. Moreover, the air operations of the Mexico City International Airport were interrupted for nearly four hours to enable the free movement of the military jets.

At 11:07 hours on September 16, to the south of Mexico’s Federal District, a crew of the Tercer Milenio television show, led by Carlos Clemente, was able to capture a disc-shaped, black flying object in flight, thanks to the expertise of researcher Alfonso Salazar. This UFO flew at low altitude, nearly at the level of the residential structures in the area, without making any noise whatsoever.

Simultaneously, UFO hunter Fabián Meléndez managed to capture an object having the shape of an inverted pyramid, motionless at low altitude, and which did not display any type of mechanism whatsoever with which to fly in our atmosphere.

These sightings made us realize that there had been considerable UFO activity in Central Mexico. Such sightings have been documented on video since September 16, 1991 when Vicente Sanchez, located, managed to capture the presence of a mysterious UFO very close to the airplanes.

Spain Orb

Malaga — I was working and cleaning outside when I saw at first three bright balls just slowly floating on September 15, 2015. I wondered if they were balloons or plastic bags. I remember thinking Fuengirola market is open so it might be carrier bags caught in the wind. Then I saw another two or three maybe four following. At that moment I thought hey they look just like the orbs, I have seen on you tube. That’s when I decided to film them with my iPhone. I could see them clearly looking over the phone. When I checked I could briefly see a couple orbs. Thanks to MUFON CMS

UK/England Light

London – I never been to London before so I was taking pictures of everything on September 19, 2015. I waited until I was able to get the best shot of places with least interference of objects and people. I did not notice anything in the sky as I was taking pictures. I noticed this object over Buckingham Palace a few weeks after my trip. I was looking at pictures of my trip when I had reached this photo and noticed it right away. My wife thought it might be a plane. I showed her another photo 3-4 minutes later of the object in the background moving.

Note: Photo is probably an aircraft taken in several seconds.

Monmouthshire — I was browsing Google Earth of the area that I live. It appears that the Google Earth camera has captured something that I am not able to identify on June11, 2011. There are two things to observe in the image. The first is a machine in the air among the tree line at the top left of the image.
The second is a strange cloud formation. I was shocked to see the image because nothing exists where this object is located on the image. Thanks to MUFON CMS

NASA is making a big announcement about Mars' atmosphere this Thursday

Artist's impression of early Mars. Image: NASA

NASA is a fan of making announcements about its forthcoming announcements, but so far it hasn't failed to live up to its hype. First there was the discovery of the most Earth-like exoplanet to date, and just last month researchers shared evidence of salty, flowing water (!!) on the Red Planet. 

So suffice it to say that when the US space agency says it's got something big to share with the world, we're going to pay attention, and this Thursday at 2pm EST it's promising to announce "key science findings" about what happened to Mars' now-thin atmosphere. We'll be live reporting the announcement as it happens, and you can watch along with us from the comfort of your home or office belowvia NASA TV.

The spacecraft carries eight different sensors on board, including an ion mass spectrometer and a magnetometer, and according to NASA its aim is to: "Determine the role that loss of volatiles from the Mars atmosphere to space has played through time, giving insight into the history of Mars' atmosphere and climate, liquid water, and planetary habitability."

That last point is a particular favourite among those speculating on the outcome of the announcement on Twitter at the moment, but unfortunately we have nothing concrete to back up the idea that the announcement is to do with the potential for past or future life on Mars.

There is, however, this one slightly telling clue that we've found on NASA's Vine, which shows a simulation of what the Red Planet may have once looked like, and we're kinda freaking out over it (hello, second Earth?).

The Vine update links to a NASA statement with a few more details:

"The atmosphere on Mars is whisper-thin and drier than bone – but it wasn't always that way. For the past year, the MAVEN mission has been orbiting the planet, piecing together clues about what happened to all the air on Mars. At 2pm EST on November 5, NASA will hold a briefing on some new findings about the Martian atmosphere."

We also know that the announcement will be held at the NASA headquarters in Washington DC and will involve:

• Michael Meyer, lead scientist for the Mars Exploration Program 
• Bruce Jakosky, MAVEN principal investigator 
• Jasper Halekas, MAVEN Solar Wind Ion Analyser instrument lead
• Yaxue Dong, MAVEN science team member 
• Dave Brain, MAVEN co-investigator

Which is a pretty hard-hitting line up. But the reality is that, until Thursday, we won't know what NASA is going to tell us. So tune in to the live stream below at 2pm on November 5 EST (that's 7pm UTC and 6am Friday AEST).

You can ask NASA questions in advance using #AskNASA on Twitter. And we'll be live reporting on the story as it happens, so watch this space.

P.S. Anyone with any suggestions for a NASA live announcement drinking game, please let us know on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or email. Because if the space agency is going to keep holding us in suspense like this on the regular, then we definitely need one.

The Dogon Tribe and Their Nordic Alien Gods From Sirius

How did an African tribe come to possess advanced astronomical knowledge about the Sirius star system?

 

Throughout history, many civilizations were fascinated with Sirius, the Dog Star. This bright celestial object occupies an elevated status in various mythologies but none paint a more intriguing picture than the Dogon Tribe of West Africa.

 

The rich culture of the Dogon people spans back more than five thousand years and one of their ancient legends tells the story of a race of otherworldly beings called the Nommo. According to legend, these advanced individuals visited the Earth eons ago, descending “from the sky in a vessel accompanied by fire and thunder.”

 

Friendly in nature, they shared some of their wisdom with the ancestors of the Dogon.

 

At this point we should mention that the Dogon possessed no astronomical instruments with which to study the night sky. But despite this inconvenience, their legends mention that the Nommo came from a planet that orbits one of the two stars in the Sirius star system.

 

 

It would have been impossible for them to reach this conclusion just by studying the star with the naked eye. In fact, astronomers only discovered Sirius’ smaller companion star a good 250 years after the telescope was invented.

 

Every 50 years, the Dogon celebrate the passing of a Sirius cycle, a tradition they keep in honor of the Nommo. That is exactly the time it takes for Sirius B to complete an orbit around its larger, more well-known companion. Coincidence?

 

The fact that a primitive African tribe possessed advanced knowledge about the universe is a mystery, but one that can be easily explained if we viewed their legends as mirrors of real events. So, what do the Dogon say about the Nommo?

 

Their home planet orbits Sirius B and is a largely-aquatic world. All legends describe them as amphibious creatures, very similar to our conception of Merfolk. Their upper half of the body closely resembles the Nordic Alien prototype of blue eyed, blonde-haired tall humanoids.

 

They landed in a large space ship the Dogon call ‘Pelu Tolo’ or ‘Star of the Tenth Moon.’ This event is one of great importance for the Dogon—their first contact. At the same time the Nommo ship was spiraling towards earth, a new star appeared in the night sky, possibly a mother ship from Sirius.

 

The tribe describe this star as having a swirling circle of reddish rays around it and also say that it was stationary relative to the other stars in the night sky.

 

The Dogon revered the Nommo and regarded them as civilizing gods. They are commonly referred to as ‘The Masters of the Waters”, “The Watchers” or “The Saviors.”

 

 

When shown photos of the most encountered alien species, Dogon shamans identified them with the Nordic alien type, claiming that their tribe had met blue eyed white humanoids long before meeting white men.

 

As unbelievable as this story sounds, it is paralleled by many others worldwide and they all share one common aspect: advanced alien beings visiting our planet, offering their aid and knowledge and being revered as gods. It would appear that this rash of visitations occurred around 5,000 years ago, possibly following a great flood or another catastrophe.

 

The white-skinned gods apparently visited the entire planet, as legends ranging from Australia to the Americas describe similar beings teaching mankind their ways.
