Si la "Planète 9" existe, elle est énorme", assure le Washington Post (en anglais).Elle serait même la cinquième plus grosse planète de notre système, derrière Jupiter, Saturne, Uranus et Neptune. Selon les scientifiques, il s'agirait en effet d'une planète géante qui serait dix fois plus massive que la Terre.
Son orbite serait en moyenne vingt fois plus lointaine que celle de Neptune, déjà à 4,5 milliards de kilomètres du Soleil. Elle ferait donc le tour du Soleil en 10 000 à 20 000 ans.
S'il y a bien une 9e planète dans le Système solaire, voilà vers où il va falloir la chercher. A plus de 600 UA...

Dans un premier temps, Scott Sheppard et Chad Trujillo avaient, en 2014, publié un article parlant de l'existence d'une potentielle neuvième planète. "On pensait que leur idée était folle", a expliqué Michael Brown. Le chercheur a pourtant vite changé d'avis. Alors qu'il travaillait avec Konstantin Batygin sur le mouvement de planètes naines et d'autres petits objets, ils se sont aperçus que la gravité d'une planète devait influencer le trajet de ces objets.
"Jusque-là, nous ne croyions pas vraiment nos résultats nous-mêmes. Nous pensions tout simplement que ça n'avait pas de sens", explique Michael Brown dans le Washington Post. "Mais leur modélisation a montré qu'une planète à la masse dix fois plus importante que celle de la Terre influencerait l'orbite des plus petits corps, les empêchant de se rapprocher du Soleil comme ils devraient le faire", ajoute le journal.
Cette planète n'a pas été observée directement. Mais Michael Brown et KonstantinBatygin sont formels. Pour eux, la probabilité que le mouvement de ces objets soit dû au hasard est de 0,007%. "La chasse à la neuvième planète est désormais officiellement ouverte", note 20 Minutes. L'observer directement relèverait de l'exploit, la planète étant environ 10 000 fois moins brillante que Pluton.
"Mais Mike Brown estime que des télescopes sur Terre sont assez puissants pour toucher le gros lot, avec de la chance", continue le site. Les chercheurs s'étonnaient, de plus, de l'absence de ce type de planète – courante dans l'Univers – au sein de notre système solaire.

L'ÉTERNEL RETOUR DE LA PLANÈTE FANTÔME
L'annonce de la probable découverte d'une neuvième planète aux confins du Système solaire donne un second souffle aux théories jugées fantaisistes sur l'existence de Nibiru, une planète mythique et menaçante qui reviendrait régulièrement semer la désolation sur la terre.
La quête de la neuvième planète En 1846, lors de la découverte de Neptune par le Français Urbain Le Verrier, de nombreux astronomes se disent qu’il n’y a aucune raison de s’arrêter là et redoublent d’efforts pour dénicher d’autres planètes après la géante glacée. Parmi les plus acharnés, l’Américain Percival Lowell. L’astronome délaisse l’étude ingrate des inexistants canaux martiens pour rechercher, sans plus de succès, l’hypothétique Planète X, selon le nom que lui attribue Percival Lowell. C’est cet astre introuvable qui serait à l’origine des anomalies dans les orbites d’Uranus et Neptune.
Pluton, planète née sous X Pluton, découverte en 1930 par Clyde W. Tombaugh, fait figure d’excellente candidate au titre de Planète X. Mais, au fil des années, la masse de Pluton est sans cesse revue à la baisse jusqu’à l’humiliation finale de sa relégation au rang de planète naine. Pluton ne peut pas être responsable des contradictions dans les orbites des planètes géantes.
Au cours des 40 dernières années, la Planète X est devenue l’Arlésienne de l’astronomie. Son existence, toujours supputée mais jamais démontrée, s’apparente désormais à un mythe moderne : parmi les théories scientifiques les plus originales, celle de Richard A. Muller, de l’université de Californie, décroche la palme. Il postule l’existence de la planète Némésis, du nom de la déesse grecque de la colère des dieux. Cet astre à l’orbite capricieux reviendrait régulièrement dans nos parages pour semer la mort et la désolation sur terre avec les météorites qu’elle traîne dans son sillage. Némésis serait responsable, entre autres, de la disparition des dinosaures. Cette sinistre planète rappelle par bien des aspects la mythique Nibiru, popularisée par l’écrivain Zecharia Sitchin.
Nibiru, planète pas nette Avec Zecharia Sitchin, écrivain d’origine russe décédé en 2010 à l’âge de 90 ans, on quitte les rivages de la science pour arriver dans le grand n’importe quoi. En s’appuyant sur les tablettes cunéiformes de l’époque sumérienne, qu’il prétend avoir traduites, Sitchin affirme que l’humanité aurait été crée par une race extraterrestre, les Annunaki, révérés comme des dieux par les Sumériens.
Dans la cosmogonie de Zecharia Sitchin, la Terre a été formée par la collision de deux planètes, Tiamat et de Nibiru. Tiamat a été détruite, mais Nibiru, manifestement plus résistante, continue à rôder dans notre système solaire et revient tous les 3600 ans pour, à l’instar de Némésis, déclencher de terribles cataclysmes. Dans l’espèce de syncrétisme loufoque qui caractérise les théories apocalyptiques, c’est d’ailleurs Nibiru qui, en 2012, aurait dû provoquer la fin du monde annoncée par les Mayas.

Mais ce n’est sans doute que partie remise. Nibiru est si présente dans la culture populaire qu’on ne compte plus, sur Internet, les photos et les vidéos de cette planète fantôme repérée par des prophètes à la petite semaine. Tous les sites et les blogs consacrées à la menace Nibiru font leur « une » sur l’annonce de la découverte de la planète X sur l’air de « on vous l’avait bien dit ». Difficile de leur jeter la pierre…
We Just Found Evidence of the Second Largest Black Hole in our Galaxy Tomoharu Oka (Keio University)
Japanese astronomers have detected what may be an intermediate-mass black hole within a molecular cloud near the galactic center. If proven, its existence may hold clues to the formation of supermassive black holes at the center of our own galaxy and others.
The existence of supermassive black holes, with masses millions to billions of times that of the Sun, commonly exist in the centers of large galaxies like our own; but what is less understood is how such monstrous astrophysical objects came to be in the first place.
Some theories have been proposed that suggest a kind of “snowball effect”—an effect in which a black hole of more modest size, perhaps only tens to hundreds of times more massive than the Sun, grows through the steady accretion of matter from gas clouds, ripped-apart stars, or whatever else strays too near.
Another theory holds that larger black holes, between ten and a hundred thousand times more massive than the Sun, are created through stellar collisions and eventually coalescence at the centers of compact star clusters. Ultimately, it is argues that these so-called “intermediate-mass black holes” form the seeds whence the larger, supermassive varieties grow.
Problem is, no intermediate-mass black hole has ever actually been detected.
That is, until now—if the findings made by a team of Japanese astronomers, led by Tomoharu Oka of Keio University, prove correct. Using the Nobeyama Radio Observatory 45 m radio telescope, together with the ASTE telescope in Atacama, Chile, they investigated a compact gas cloud called CO-0.40-0.22, located only 200 light years from the galactic center.
What they discovered is that the cloud exhibited a curious dichotomy in the velocity of its gases: a small area of high velocity, and another, larger component with a low velocity. Further analysis in the infrared and x-ray wavelengths revealed no compact sources, suggesting the influence of something massive and invisible.
Oka and his team performed a simulation showing that a black hole of 100,000 solar masses, occupying an area with a radius of only 0.3 light years (with an event horizon about 4 times the diameter of Jupiter), best fits the observed data. In this scenario, the black hole attracts the surrounding gas, accelerating it to a high velocity at nearest approach; the material subsequently slows as its distance from the black hole increases.
“Considering the fact that no compact objects are seen in X-ray or infrared observations, as far as we know, the best candidate for the compact massive object is a black hole,” Oka observed in the original story by the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan.

If CO-0.40-0.22 truly does harbor an intermediate-mass black hole, it lends credence to the theory that such objects might be fairly common in large galaxies, and through accretion and coalescence gradually swell to the immense black holes that anchor the very largest galaxies.
Its proximity to the Milky Way’s central black hole, Sagittarius A*, suggests that these black holes tend naturally to sink to the heart of their home galaxies, perhaps to eventually mergewith and increase their supermassive cousins (another, more modest black hole, only some 1,300 solar masses, is thought to orbit Sagittarius A* at a distance of only 3 light years).
Recent studies have shown that there are a number of other gas clouds within the galaxy that exhibit the same sort of velocity disparities as CO-0.40-0.22, indicating that there may be many more intermediate-mass black holes lurking out there…somewhere. Stay tuned for more discoveries to come.
Astrobiologists have a new theory for why we haven't found aliens: They're all extinct
Astrobiologists from the Australian National University Research School of Earth Sciences suggest that the reason why we haven't encountered alien life is because all the aliens are extinct, the university reported Thursday. In studying how life might develop on other planets, the scientists realized that early critters likely had a hard time quickly evolving to their heating or cooling planets and did not survive.
"Early life is fragile, so we believe it rarely evolves quickly enough to survive. Most early planetary environments are unstable. To produce a habitable planet, life forms need to regulate greenhouse gases such as water and carbon dioxide to keep surface temperatures stable," Dr. Aditya Chopra said in the paperpublishing the astrobiologists' findings.
"Life on Earth probably played a leading role in stabilizing the planet's climate," co-author Associate Professor Charley Lineweaver said.
The paradox of astrobiology is that many planets likely check all the boxes for being habitable for life, but we have yet to discover any. The researchers have named their solution to this paradox the "Gaian Bottleneck." "One intriguing prediction of the Gaian Bottleneck model is that the vast majority of fossils in the universe will be from extinct microbial life, not from multicellular species such as dinosaurs or humanoids that take billions of years to evolve," Lineweaver said.Jeva Lange

Hij blijkt toch te bestaan: de mysterieuze negende planeet. Nog niemand heeft de nieuwkomer gezien, ook de twee Amerikaanse ontdekkers niet. Maar de astronomen hebben wel sterke bewijzen: achter Pluto, een heel eind verder zelfs, ligt nog een planeet. In een verre uithoek van ons zonnestelsel cirkelt, volgens de knappe koppen, een hemellichaam rond dat 10 keer groter is dan de aarde.

Hints that a planet 10x bigger than Earth might be lurking at the edge of the solar system http://ow.ly/Xk3MP
Planeet 9
'Planeet 9' of 'Planeet X', zoals de geheimzinnige planeet voorlopig is gedoopt, zou twintig keer de massa van onze aarde moeten hebben en ongeveer 15.000 jaar over een rondje om de zon doen. De ontdekkers leggen het uit in de nieuwste editie van het belangrijke wetenschapsblad The Astronomical Journal, dat woensdag is uitgekomen. Ook het tijdschrift Science wijdt er een artikel aan.
"Dit keer gelijk"
Over de aanwezigheid van de verre planeet wordt al langer gekissebist, al eeuwen om wat preciezer te zijn. Geen enkele theorie heeft tot nu toe iets opgeleverd. Konstantin Batygin en Mike Brown, van het California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, denken echter beet te hebben en komen met een ijzersterke claim. "Als je zegt bewijs te hebben voor planeet X, reageert vrijwel iedere astronoom met 'alweer?','' zegt Brown. "Dat zou ik zelf ook zeggen.'' Waarom zou het deze keer anders zijn? "Omdat we dit keer gelijk hebben'', is het zelfverzekerde antwoord.
Gedetailleerde analyses
Batygin en Brown hebben zich goed voorbereid op de onvermijdelijke golf van scepticisme, en komen met gedetailleerde analyses van de banen van andere verstaande ruimteobjecten. Ze draaiden daartoe maandenlange computersimulaties. Achter Pluto ligt de zogeheten Kuipergordel, vernoemd naar de Nederlandse astronoom Gerard Kuiper. De band bestaat uit miljarden rotsblokken. Die rotsblokken blijken in groepjes rond de zon te draaien. De kracht die planeet X uitoefent, zou die groepen kunnen verklaren. Meer nog: de banen en bewegingen van de ruimtekeien vallen alleen te verklaren door de effecten van een groter object, nog verder weg.

"Mijn dochter is nog altijd boos dat Pluto door mijn werk geen planeet meer is. Ze heeft gezegd dat ze me pas vergeeft als ik een nieuwe planeet ontdek. En dat hebben we nu gedaan"
Weggestoten
De planeet zelf zou, gedurende het onstaan van ons zonnestelsel, zo'n 4,5 miljard jaar geleden, uit het gebied zijn gestoten waar de overige planeten, waaronder onze eigen aarde, zijn ontstaan. Gaswolken zouden de planeet uiteindelijk hebben vertraagd en hem in een vergelegen omloopbaan om de zon hebben gebracht.
Nog nooit gezien
En daar, in de verre uithoeken van het ons bekende zonnestelsel, draait planeet X volgens de wetenschappers zijn rondjes. Gezien heeft niemand de planeet ooit en er is, volgens Batygin en Brown, nog veel onderzoek nodig. Alle ruimtefanaten die in 2006 een traantje plengden, toen Pluto werd afgeserveerd als planeet en het sindsdien met het predicaat dwergplaneet moet doen, hebben iets om naar uit te kijken.
Dochter
Brown is trouwens de ontdekker van diverse dwergplaneten van de grootte van Pluto. Het zijn zijn ontdekkingen die er onder meer toe geleid hebben dat Pluto niet meer wordt beschouwd als de negende planeet, omdat hij te klein is. "Mijn dochter is daar nog altijd kwaad over", vertelt hij aan de Washington Post. "Ze heeft gezegd dat ze me pas vergeeft als ik een nieuwe planeet ontdek."
Telescoop
Als de negende planeet werkelijk bestaat zullen wetenschappers meer objecten vinden die, door de invloed van X, in langgerekte banen om de zon heen draaien. Brown zelf houdt er rekening mee dat, ondanks dit soort aanwijzingen, men pas in het bestaan van de planeet zal geloven als hij te zien is met een telescoop. "Tot er een directe waarneming is, blijft het een hypothese'', zegt de astronoom. "Zelfs al is het een heel goede hypothese.'' Om hun claim kracht bij te zetten, hebben Batygin en Brown tijd gekregen op een van de grootste telescopen van het observatorium van Mauna Kea op Hawaï.

Alien Species To Replace Humans By 2100, Says SETI Research Head
By Angela Laguipo, Tech Times

The 21st century could be the last one for humans, Seth Shostak of the SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) Institute said. The vast scientific advancements may someday take a toll on humans with alien species to replace them by 2100.

The 21st century could be the last one for humans, warns a senior astronomer. The vast scientific advancements may someday take a toll on humans with alien species to replace them by 2100.
Seth Shostak of the SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) Institute in Mountain View, California argues that designer babies and artificial intelligence (AI) will lead to the creation of a new dominant species. The advancements in the two fields may lead to the emergence of "alien species" in the next century.
On Jan. 15, 2016, Shostak wrote a post titled, "Could This Be Humanity's Last Century?" which is a less-than-sunny concept about Earth and humanity's fate in the coming century, as shaped by happenings in the past millennium.
"But what about the 21st century? What will your kids and grandkids do that will still be important a thousand years from now?" he argued. He added that his argument is not about the numerous threats present today such as climate change or terrorism.
Shostak mentioned three things that can happen in the next 100 years. First, he talked about people's understanding of DNA sequences and the molecular level of biology. With advancements in science, technology and medicine, scientists in the future may be able to cure diseases that are deemed incurable today.
"But our efforts won't be limited to merely fixing ourselves; we'll also opt for improvement. You may hesitate to endorse designer babies, but hot-rodding our children is as much on the horizon as the morning sun," Shostak said referring to biotechnology and gene editing. Re-engineering future children will transform them into something different from humans in many aspects like how dogs are from gray wolves after domestication.
The second development he mentioned is human expansion into outer space to explore other resources. Scarce resources like metals and minerals can be extracted from asteroids and humans may soon establish settlements on Mars or the Moon.
"The third thing you can expect before the year 2100 is the development of generalized artificial intelligence," Shostak said. He believed that the rise of artificial intelligence will be the biggest influence on the future of humanity.
Machines of the future will not just play games in computers but can do more than that. These machines can perform the thinking on behalf of humans. The development of AI is more than just improving future children but entails substituting them with engineered successors.
Humans may rely on AI to do the work for them. With scientific advancements like these, the Homo sapiens that walked the Earth for 50,000 years might be unrecognizable in the next 100 years. He added that these changes may not happen in this century but it may happen in the next 1,000 years.

Planeet X? Mysterieuze planeet die vier keer zo groot is als de aarde ontdekt achter Pluto
Astronomen van over de hele planeet zijn in de zevende hemel. Volgens twee Amerikaanse wetenschappers staat ver achter Pluto aan de rand van het zonnestelsel een nog onbekende planeet.
Omdat er acht planeten in het zonnestelsel bekend zijn, hebben de twee astronomen van de Technische Universiteit in Californië de onbekende planeet ‘Planeet Negen’ gedoopt.
Het bewijs voor het bestaan van de planeet is gebaseerd op berekeningen. Uitgangspunt voor die berekeningen is een groep kometen en andere objecten die zich in de Kuipergordel bevinden. Die bestaat uit een verzameling van allerlei objecten.
De manier waarop enkele van die objecten zich bewegen, zou het bestaan van de negende planeet kunnen verklaren. De planeet zou volgens de berekeningen tot 10 keer zo zwaar en vier keer zo groot moeten zijn als de aarde en er 20.000 jaar over doen om rond de zon te draaien.
Er wordt al langer geschreven over het bestaan van de planeet, maar deze wetenschappers hebben voor het eerst een sluitend theoretisch model gepresenteerd dat het bestaan kan verklaren.
“Als je zegt bewijs te hebben voor Planeet X, reageert vrijwel iedere astronoom met ‘alweer?’, zegt Mike Brown, één van de astronomen. “Dat zou ik zelf ook zeggen.” Waarom is het deze keer anders? “Omdat we gelijk hebben,” zegt hij zelfverzekerd.
Er wordt nu tussen astronomen een informele competitie verwacht om zo snel mogelijk de nieuwe planeet te lokaliseren. Als blijkt dat Planeet Negen daadwerkelijk bestaat, moeten we alle handboeken astronomie herschrijven.
Het onderzoek is gepubliceerd in vakblad Astronomical Journal.

What [Else] is NASA Hiding From Us?


DNA test results: Paracas skulls are not human
The desert peninsula of Paracas is located on the southern coast of one of South America’s most enigmatic countries: Peru. It is there, in this barren landscape where Peruvian archeologist Julio Tello made one of the most mysterious discoveries in 1928. During excavations, Tello uncovered a complex and sophisticated graveyard under the harsh soil of the Paracas desert.
In the enigmatic tombs, Tello discovered a set of controversial human remains that would forever change how we look at our ancestor and our origins. The bodies in the tombs had some of the largest elongated skulls ever discovered on the planet, called the Paracas skulls. The Peruvian archeologist discovered over 300 mysterious skulls which are believed to be at least around 3000 years old.
As if the shape of the skulls wasn’t mysterious enough, a recent DNA analysis performed on some of the skulls presented some of the most enigmatic and incredible results that challenge everything we know about the origin and human evolutionary tree.
While several cultures around the globe practices skull deformation (elongation), the techniques used were different, meaning the results were also not the same. There are certain South American tribes that used to ‘bind infants skulls’ in order to change their shape, resulting into a drastically elongated cranial shape that resembled anything but ordinary humans. By applying constant pressure over a long period of time with the use of pieces of mood, the ancient tribes would achieve a cranial deformation which can also be found in ancient cultures from Africa. However, while this type of cranial deformation changed the shape of the skull, it did not alter the size, weight or cranial volume, all of which are characteristic traits of regular human skulls.
This is where the details about the Paracas skulls gets interesting. The Paracas skulls are anything but ordinary. The cranium of the Paracas skulls is are least 25 % larger and up to 60% heavier than the skulls of regular human beings. Researchers firmly believe that these traits could not have been achieved through head bindings as some scientists suggest. Not only are they different in weight, the Paracas skulls are also structurally different and only have one parietal plate while ordinary humans have two.
These strange characteristics have further deepened the decade-old mystery surrounding the Paracas skulls and researchers still have no idea what they were in the past.
The director of the Paracas Museum of History sent five samples of the Paracas skulls to undergo genetic testing, and the results were mesmerizing. The samples which consisted of hair, skin teeth and some fragments of cranial bones gave incredible details that have fueled the mystery surrounding these anomalous skulls. The genetic laboratory to where the samples were sent was not informed of the origin of the skulls in order to avoid ‘influenced results’.
Interestingly, the mitochondrial DNA, which is inherited from the mother, showed mutations that were unknown to any man, primate or animal found on planet Earth. The mutations present in the samples of the Paracas skulls suggest that researchers were dealing with a completely new ‘human-like being’, very different from Homo sapiens, Neanderthals or Denisovans.
Brien Foerster reported the following on the geneticist’s findings:
It had mtDNA (mitochondrial DNA) with mutations unknown in any human, primate, or animal known so far. But a few fragments I was able to sequence from this sample indicate that if these mutations will hold we are dealing with a new human-like creature, very distant from Homo sapiens, Neanderthals, and Denisovans.
According to reports, the individuals from the Paracas skulls were so biologically different that it would have been impossible from humans and them to ‘interbreed’. “I am not sure it will even fit into the known evolutionary tree,” the geneticist wrote.
Who were these mysterious beings? Did they evolve separately on Earth? What cause
d them to have such drastic differences from ordinary humans? And is it possible that these beings are actually not from Earth? All of these possibilities are theories that cannot be overruled given the current testing. The only thing that we know so far is that there are many things out there that go far beyond the understanding of researchers, historians, and scientists. It is possible that after all, the question to whether we are alone in the universe can be answered thanks to the Paracas skulls.

Leonard Nimoy Loved Space Shuttle Enterprise's Final Flight (Exclusive Video)
The final flight of the prototype space shuttle Enterprise apparently made a big impression on late actor Leonard Nimoy.
A newly released video shows Nimoy — best known to legions of dedicated "Star Trek" fans as Mr. Spock — calling the ferry flight that brought the shuttle Enterprise to New York City for museum display the "most thrilling, amazing sight."
Nimoy, who died last year, was on hand at New York's John F. Kennedy Airport when Enterprise, riding atop NASA's shuttle carrier aircraft, landed there in April 2012. It was Enterprise's last stop before being shipped to the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum, which is now the spacecraft's permanent home. (NASA's space shuttle fleet was grounded in 2011.) [Final Voyage of Space Shuttle Enterprise (Photos)]
The shuttle Enterprise was named after the starship Enterprise, which Spock, Capt. James T. Kirk and other crewmates used in "Star Trek."
The newly released video, which is part of an upcoming film on Nimoy's life, was provided exclusively to Space.com. Nimoy's family is creating the new documentary called "COPD: Highly Illogical" to talk about Nimoy's life and the disease that claimed his life.
The Enterprise-related footage shows Nimoy reminiscing about his 2012 visit to New York. He went there with his wife to see friends and family, and also to visit some contemporary-art galleries, a hobby of Nimoy's. While he was in the city, Nimoy heard a news report saying the space shuttle would be landing there that week.
"I contacted the Inteprid people and asked them if we could get on the Intrepid to watch the flyby," Nimoy said in the video. "They came right back and said, 'Why don't you come up to JFK where it will be landing, and, if you'd like to, you could say a few words.' So I said, 'OK.'"
Along with a small crowd of spectators, Nimoy watched the shuttle and its modified 747 carrier aircraft zoom by at 500 feet (150 meters) from the ground, leave for a planned loop around Manhattan and return for a final touchdown.
"It was cold and windy. It was freezing!" Nimoy said with a laugh. "But it was exciting, really exciting to be there, and I was thrilled we were able to work it out."
Most castmembers of the original "Star Trek" TV series, including Nimoy, were on hand for the shuttle Enterprise's unveiling in 1976. The vehicle was used for test flights in 1977; it did a world tour after testing was completed, and was eventually restored and displayed at the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center, part of the Smithsonian Institution's National Air and Space Museum.
But NASA awarded the space-flown shuttle Discovery to the Smithsonian after the program's retirement, leading to the Enterprise's move to New York in 2012.
Nimoy died of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), an inflammatory lung disease most commonly present among smokers. Nimoy quit smoking decades before he developed the disease. After Nimoy made his medical diagnosis public, he tweeted occasionally about the dangers of smoking.
Fundraising is ongoing for the film. After a campaign at FirstGiving.com that concluded last year, Nimoy's family is now raising money through Indiegogo.

Scientists: Good evidence planet X is real, Jan 2016, UFO Sighting News.
Interesting daytime sighting over El Cajon, California 14-Jan-2016

Here’s one new interesting footage of an unidentified flying object flying near a plane. This happened over El Cajon in California on 14th January 2016.
Witness report: I was getting ready to go to work at about 11:30 am. I noticed a plane or jet heading straight up which got my attention. I started recording the jet till it was out of range of the camera. I later came home from work to see the video when I noticed a very fast object me and my girlfriend didn’t see during the time I was recording. It was at about 0:10-0:11 seconds into the video when I saw a object past extremely fast from the right side of the video and head to the left side of the video. I took screenshots to analyze it a bit better. It looks like something I’ve never seen. Not a bug or bird. When I saw it more clearly I was excited and sort of skeptical, but I then uploaded it to YouTube so my friends and family can see it and give me their opinion and most said its definitely a ufo. I’m not sure what it is but I want to share this video with MUFON and maybe I can get a answer or maybe you guys can have more evidence of real UFOs. This is not faked or tampered in any way. I appreciate your time.
