Is 2018 the year time travel comes out of the closet and achieves some sort of legitimacy, if not actual proof, like UFOs did in 2017? After videos of three alleged time travelerssurfaced earlier this year in one week, three more appeared recently and a presidential candidate, who claims he has time traveled and promised to expose the technology if elected, revealed he has also time traveled to Mars and seen evidence of life and graveyards. What about some lottery numbers or stock market predictions?

Let’s start with pixel-faced “Noah.” He appeared first in a video from Apex TV (the new go-to source for time travel videos) where he claims he’s from the year 2030, says he can’t show his face or use his real voice because he could be assassinated for revealing the future and looks like his comments are being evaluated by a lie detector which buzzes in the background while the video flashes the word “True” on the screen. That last part seems pretty questionable, not to mention hokey.

In the video, and in a later interview in Australia on Sydney’s KIIS 106.5, he says that (some media reports call these “predictions” but they should be called “revelations” since he allegedly already knows they will happen) that Donald Trump will be re-elected, the law limiting the age of a president will be changed and a 21-year-old female named Ilana Remikee will become President in 2030 – but the really big news is that Ilana is the granddaughter of Martin Luther King Jr. Although that one registers “true” on the so-called lie detector, no searches have come up with a granddaughter of King by that name. He also said he takes pills to keep from aging, has proof he’s from the future (although he doesn’t reveal it – possibly waiting to get on a bigger radio show), says global warming will still be a problem as will pennies, even though bitcoin use will increase.

“Noah” also says humans will fly to Mars, which seems to contradict time traveler number 2 and presidential candidate Andrew Basiago. Basiago is running again in 2020 (he ran in 2016) and has an interesting list on his website of 100 proposals he will fulfill if elected, including disclosing “the existence of the secret US presence on the Red Planet.” A recent article in express.co.uk refers to a presentation which he supposedly gave at an unspecified MUFON symposium where he said:

“We landed on Mars in 1964 – the documentary source I can cite, but can’t proffer is a French external intelligence organisation dossier I was asked to read in the summer of 1980 which was also read by the future President Barack Obama which referred to a crash landing by an American team of astronauts on Mars who perished because they were not rescued by the Martian humanoids.”

He also allegedly repeats what he claims to have revealed in 2008 that:

“I show that in a ravine west of the Home Plate in the Gusev Crater on Mars, there was a mass grave of several hundred humanoid bodies, both male and female, clothed in uniform blue clothes suggestive of regimentation.”

Can someone ask pixelized Noah and his lie detector to give us a clarification on when humans go to Mars? Or maybe we can ask pixelized Edward, another first-names-only-please time traveler who claims in yet another Apex TV video that in 2004 he traveled to the year 5000 and just now decided to reveal what he brought back … a blurred picture of what he claims is Los Angeles under water. Speaking of blurred pictures of the future, Alexander Smith chose last week to reveal (in another Apex TV video) that he traveled to the year 2118 and his proof is a blurred photo of an unidentified city – blurred due to the stress of time travel, a common excuse.

What do we make of these time travel tales? The revelations are conflicting, the evidence is blurry (both physically and in explanation), the source for all of the videos except Andrew Basiago’s is Apex TV, and the time travelers themselves don’t appear to be the kind of believable people you’d select to send back to warn humanity of what’s coming.

Is this new interest in time travel and warnings from the future merely a way to cope with what’s happening in the world today?

Cylindrical UFO filmed in the sky above Vero Beach, Florida

This cigar-shaped UFO was caught on tape over Vero Beach in Florida. Filmed on 17th August 2017 but it was just recently submitted to MUFON.

Witness report: 

Was at Vero Beach Florida standing on our hotel balcony looking at ocean on a beautiful clear evening. Someone point out object flying over ocean and I started recording as quickly as possible. Object had no wings and it was silent as far as we could tell.

Filer’s Files #7 – 2018 Alien Reproduction Vehicle - PART II

UFO Sightings in the United States

Arizona Light

Phoenix — We were driving on Route I17 heading into Phoenix on February 2, 2018, when I noticed a rectangular object hovering over the mountains on the left hand side of the road.

My friend Dan grabbed his cell phone and took a picture of the object. After about 10 minutes the object disappeared.

A helicopter appeared shortly thereafter appearing to search for the UFO. Thanks to MUFON CMS

 California Mother Ship

Long Beach — I saw a huge white orb over my house on October 21, 2017. At first I spotted two objects crossing paths with each other and I focused on the larger one. As I zoomed in on my camera the UFO started ejecting smaller spheres into the atmosphere. The first ejection formed a triangular formation! As I kept filming the object started emitting tons of orbs falling in a steady stream from the main object. There were at least 40 smaller spheres emitted from the main UFO. Interestingly the smaller orbs were only visible through my infrared camera. This was recorded with my full spectrum Canon SX60 with a monopod in my backyard in Long Beach, CA.

Note: The video was taken during the daytime, but is dark due to the fact that it was taken by an infrared camera. Thanks to William Puckett, Director Http://www.UFOsnw.com

Colorado Lights

Wetmore – On February 13, 2018, we were driving home from the grocery store, on a road through the mountains at 8:00 pm. We noticed a series of orbs moving horizontally across the sky in front of us. Each orb would light up, and then would start to fade. As one would start to darken, the light next to it would light up, before they would all disappear. During  the first sighting, the lights appeared to be stacked in two horizontal rows. We pulled over and continued to watch. At one point, the orbs lit up and branched out to the left and right. We turned the vehicle around and watched again. After that, the sky went black. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Florida Disc

My name is Dennis James G Jr, I’m 48, and in 1990 myself and two other friends were on our way to the Florida keys to go fishing on Long Key bridge at about 5am. We all live in Broward County and go fishing often. .We were on us1 heading south sitting 3 across in a ford pickup, when I noticed a round completely silent “UFO” about 30 feet to the passenger side and about the height of a telephone pole traveling our same speed almost like we were racing. It was about 20 feet across and saucer shaped with an angular flat topped dome on top. I told my friend sitting in the middle to look at it and he did. Then we both told the driver to look….he did and got scarred and immediately stomped the gas and took off.  The object accelerated right along with us and stayed with us.   Then because we were the only people on the road he smashed the brakes and with lots of tire smoke we came to a complete stop. It did the same and then we took off again.

We repeated this 3 more times….with the object mirroring our every move. The last time we did this, I decided (HAD) to get out of the truck. I got out and the driver took off and left me on the side of the highway.

I HAD to get out of the truck like it was an order or something! The object stayed with me. I was about 25 feet away from it and it was at the height of a street light. It hovered there in front of me completely silent and I could CLEARLY see it and was amazed. It was circular with no rivets like one piece of metal and at the top was a angled flat sided cockpit type structure that was multi colored internally light….like a disco dance floor with multi colored internal lights.

The edge of the main saucer shape structure had a thin white light all the way around the edge. I was alone with this thing for what seemed like an hour but was more like 5 to 10 minutes..Then I heard the truck screech up and I heard my friends yelling to me. If I didn’t get back in the truck they were going to leave me there. So I got back in the truck and we sped away, with this thing following us again. This time the driver was trying to get away from it at any way he could.

He accelerated to well over 100 mph but we couldn’t get away from it.  We didn’t know what to do so we just keep moving. I couldn’t take my eyes off it…then I looked at my friends and asked what we should do! I turned back to look at it again and it was gone!

We arrived at our fishing spot and sat there for an hour worried that it would return. We discussed what we just experienced, and decided not to go fishing and went home. My friends would only talk about our experience when we were together and alone. A few years later I finally got one of them to confirm that it did happen.

I know for SURE we are not alone by any means. This has affected my whole life and would testify under oath and swear what I told you is 100% true. This will be with me for life. ….. Dennis James Jr.

Georgia Lights

Saint Marys  — At approx 6:00 pm I went to my car, in my driveway on February 12, 2018, coming over the west horizon I saw what I thought may have been a burning object floating upwards. It was wobbling back and forth. I ran into the house to get my girlfriend. As I pointed out the one that had passed over the house, another one showed up, from the west and followed the same path. We watched a total of six, flying the same path, wobbling back and forth and traveling at a relatively fast speed, with no noise. They looked like a rocket as all six flew over the naval sub base. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Missouri Rectangle

St. Peters — Mom and I were looking and saw 5 weird lights we thought were airplanes on February 12, 2018. We pulled over to check it out as now there were 3 flashing lights in the distance. One started to get closer and soon we saw a black square box. It was huge like a car. Mom says it a drone and gets out and I said no. As she got out and she said that it stopped right over her head and the lights went out completely. She then said, No it can’t be a drone and gets back in the car and the lights of it go back on and it starts to move slowly again.

There were so many lights that were beaming so big. We thought they were planes or drones, but soon thought of a ufo. They were going in a circle and would change the direction. They would also hover and disappear. We felt amazed and scared. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Montana Lights

Missoula — I was walking out of the gym, at 7:50 PM on February 12, 2018, and I saw two orangish lights on the horizon that were as bright as Venus. They clearly didn’t belong in that portion of the sky. I observed them slowly ascend from the skyline…1…2…3…and 4 of them.  They weren’t doing anything too out of the ordinary just slowly ascending. They were varying in brightness at times and the highest one in the sky phased out followed by the lowest one, and then the second lowest one.

The brightest light stayed fairly consistent on the last one and turned west and slowly phased out.  I did get the event on video. The whole event lasted 3 minutes and 30 seconds.. Thanks to MUFON CMS

New Jersey Triangle

Waretown — My mother and I were on our way home when I saw an extremely bright star on February 1, 2018. I pointed it out to my Mom and the object looked black in color at night. I got a good look at it and it had a very big bright white light on the front with a red pulsating light on each of the outermost points. We then stopped the car to see the triangular shape hovering over a small marina. We then turned onto the street next to the marina and it looked way too low to be an airplane. The lights were also way too bright, not to mention it was clearly a full triangle shape. We got out of the car to look as the object started to fly fast making a rumbling noise. It accelerated faster than an airplane with the sound actually behind it. The triangle’s bottom was over our heads with more colored lights on it. I think it realized we were watching it when it started flying away and disappeared . Thanks to MUFON CMS

Flying Reptile Bird

Mercerville — I am a retired law enforcement officer and have had other UAP sightings which I have reported to MUFON. On January 18, 2018 at 1720 hours while I was on the back porch I observed a large “bird” flying west at 200 feet. I am a student of nature, science, space, and aviation and familiar with anything that moves around us in our natural habitat. This gull grey flying object had a set of large primary wings mid span of its body and a secondary set of smaller wings at the end of its thin like a snake body. They flapped in tandem at the same rate as the large thin primary wings. The body was slender and long. It had no discernible head or beak. No underpinnings like legs or feet were present. It looked like a skinny B-29.

The wings were very thin and long and flew like an eel or snake as it adjusted its flight path up and down or to the left at slight increments. I followed it above the neighborhood trees and lost sight of it about 30 seconds later. This UAP was very fluid like in its motion like a live natural creature. It moved through the air much like a sea born creature would move through the water. The very thin body was at the minimum 10 feet long as were the very thin main wings. The tail wings were about a quarter size of the main wings. This was not any natural Earthly flying creature. Note A large ten foot winged bird was reported in West Windsor in October. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Oklahoma Light

Watching live feed of star man being deployed from Falcon Heavy on February 2, 2018. I observed seemingly spherical object pass over at about star man’s 10 o’clock position. Thanks to MUFON CMS

 Texas Lights

 Wetherford — At 2:30 AM on January 29, 2018. I got up to let my dogs out and saw two strange pulsating lights traveling towards me. I stared at them in awe and was trying to figure out their identity. These objects had pulsating lights that changed colors from white to orange, then to red, and then gold at a very slow rate. The object to the left started to change direction in a zig sagging pattern and traveled west descending and then hovered. The other object was traveling toward me started to take shape pulsating and zig zagging at slow rate and hovered. I noticed a faint beam and five white orbs come down from the bottom of the object.

I was in the Marine Corps and have seen numerous aircraft, but this freaked me out. I ran in the house and got my camera but when I returned I could only see the bigger objects for the next 15 minutes before they disappeared  Thanks to MUFON CMS

Virginia Object

Alexandria — Observed from my 15th floor condo 4 miles from Pentagon a large object in the West sky on February 12, 2018, at 6pm. It looked like a large aquatic like mammal with flippers or wings, dark in color slowly rotating in the sky. It rotated to the side facing in the direction of the Pentagon.

When I took pictures I captured 7 or 8 glowing white objects that took on different shapes and separated. The show lasted, probably two hours because I stopped watching. Thanks to MUFON CMS

In the recent Filer’s Files #6, I couldn’t help noticing that the photo under Indiana Cylinder looks just like the photo of an object I took a picture of a couple of years ago. Thanks to Dan

Washington Lights

Roger Marsh reports a witness at Ellensburg reported watching an object the size of an “aircraft carrier” moving slowly under 1,000 feet with an unusual lighting configuration, according to testimony in MUFON Case 89498. The reporting witness heard his dog barking “insistently” at 8:45 p.m. on January 9, 2018, just outside.

“My wife and I both heard a deep, low, muffled, pulsing sound that grew louder within several seconds,” the witness stated. “My wife went out the northeast bedroom door and we heard a loud sound like an pulsating electric turbine.”The witness looked directly up.“Saw a very large object moving slowly towards the southwest. The object appeared to be about 500 to 1,000 feet above the ground. There were two lights and one pulsating red light on both the fore and aft ends of the object.”

The object blocked out any view of the stars but you could clearly see a physical object extending between the sets of lights.”The witness first thought that the object was two aircraft moving in perfect tandem configuration. “However, the rear set of lights was directly behind the first and moving in perfect harmony at a slow but steady speed much too slow for aircraft. I could clearly see some physical object between the two.” The pulsating sound was very loud and muffled, but we could almost feel the energy as it receded as the object moved over the hills to the southwest two miles away. Our elevation is 1,300 feet and the nearby hills are at 1,800 feet and I got the sense that the object was only 500 to 1,000 feet above us. I held both hands out pointed at the front and back and my arms were at a 90-degree angle, which gave me a sense of the size. No lights were visible as the object passed over the highway.” and moved away. Thanks to MUFON CMS Cropped version of witness Image # 1.

Australia Lights

Sydney — Captured in an image – it just doesn’t look like a plane. What is it??

Thanks to MUFON CMS

 Canada Object

Scarborough  — On October 19, 2017, as I stepped outside work I was in shock as a bright light flew in from the west at 12:10 pm. First seen about quarter mile away coming towards the east I pulled out my camera and started to film this long dark flashing white light object. It came across heading northwest over the roof. The object was skipping across the sky at a thousand feet or less. My camera was on 30 x zoom. In 2017, I had witnessed 53 UFO sightings. Most were daylight UFOs and many were long type UFO’s, not round as from the past. Thanks to Paul Shishis

France Light

Bruges Capbis Mifaget — Seen with the National Director. We were returning, with my companion, from the Lourdes sector and driving towards Oloron Sainte-Marie on CD 35, at 21:31, on August 27, 2017. It was a dark night where we saw the banks of clouds approaching. There was no traffic or lights on the country road. My companion was driving when my eyes were drawn to the 6 red lights in a disc shape.  I immediately asked my companion to stop. Leaving the car, we find that the low altitude flying object makes no noise. I take my cell phone and take two photos while my companion’s phone missed it. In view of the lack of noise, the discoidal shape, slow speed, low altitude, the constant red lights, it was likely a UFO.  \It accelerated into a group of clouds in which it disappeared. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Ireland Light

While walking to the shops at 20:38 on February 13, 2018. I noticed a strange object in the sky. It was too fast and agile to be a helicopter, or drone. I recorded a video with my phone. I went home to grab 50mm 30x binoculars. When I returned to the spot 5 minutes later it was heading away and ascending, a distance had doubled by this time. When my binoculars lost sight of the object, it was 10km away from me, and its lights were barely visible. There were two solid red lights on it, and a flashing blue light. The object was above a path used by commercial aeroplanes coming into land that travel at a constant speed. This object turned over its path multiple times and darted around before departing. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Lebanon Object

Hazmieh – Beirut — I was taking a random photo for the Sun on February 8, 2018, and I was totally focused on the sun on the screen of my IPhone. I never saw anything weird until I was reviewing the photos and noticed a strange object in the photo. It was a little black dot! I zoomed and it was like a round object in the sky. It looks like a planet, but I guess it’s impossible to catch a planet with an iPhone camera during the day. Thanks to MUFON CMS

New Zealand Object

Bay Of Plenty — My husband and I had visited remote Lake Okataina on January 10, 2018. We had a picnic tea on the main shore while we waited for it to get dark to see the glow worms nearby. I took 3 photos of the sunset at 7.53 pm. My husband and I did not notice any UFO activity in the sky. A month later while studying the photos, I noticed a dark Trapezium shaped object in the sky, with a very broad and intense light beaming down from underneath it onto the darker cloud below it.

The lower cloud shows the beam shining on it very clearly. The beam of light emanating from the craft is the entire length of the craft’s underside. It looks nothing like an aeroplane’s light. It is not a normal shaped craft that we are used to seeing in our skies. I have darkened the photo slightly and zoomed on the image, so that the shape of the craft and beam of light can be seen in better detail. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Puerto Rico Lights

Caguas — While sitting in the balcony at my brother’s house with my wife and sister in law I notice of lights in the sky on May 25, 2014

But wasn’t sure what they were so I asked them if they seen the lights and they told me I was drunk. So I asked again if they do see the lights? They answer, “Yes,” I said are you drunk too? The following day the lights were spotted in the north of the house. Thanks to MUFON CMS

UK/ England Orb

Manchester — I was in my back garden with my granddaughter. I had bought a new digital camera and was trying to get a photo of a plane. I zoomed in and had a pretty good shot of the plane on May13, 2015. I pressed the shutter button but the I had left the auto focus on and the camera zoomed back a little and the plane looked blurred. I did not delete it but later that day I copied the photos of my granddaughter and others I had taken to my pc. Glancing at the photo of the plane I noticed a small grey dot? I first thought my camera had dust or something on the lens. But on checking other pics there were no other dots! I then zoomed in on the photo and noticed it looks very much like a Grey oval type item? Having watched many UFO programs on TV I can only
presume that this is what it is? I did not see the UFO when I took the picture as it would have been too small. I only noticed a small dot on the picture but when you zoom in you notice the shape etc. Thanks to MUFON CMS

UFO METAL MYSTERY: So who found 'alien craft parts' allegedly held in storage by Pentagon?

MYSTERIOUS metal allegedly recovered from UFOs and placed into top-secret storage by the Pentagon was not found by the US Government, as widely believed, according to new claims. Experts connected to the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) Institute, based in the US, said they understood if any metal has been recovered, as suggested by recently-released Department of Defense (DoD) documents, then the find was likely made by independent UFO investigators.

By JON AUSTIN

Was metal allegedly recovered from UFOs found by the military or MUFON?

A shock New York Times article revealed details of a top-secret £16 million Pentagon study on any threats posed by UFOs which ran from 2007 to 2012.

According to the New York Times, which said it had seen DoD documents relating to the study, "metals unknown to science" had been recovered, which had been tested and placed them into private storage.

It was widely believed in the UFO community that the metals must have been taken from a UFO crash scene such as the legendary Roswell incident of 1947.

However, it has now been claimed that UFO believers found the material and handed it over.

The bulk of the money allocated by the DoD for the project reportedly went via a contract to Bigelow Aerospace in Las Vegas, run by billionaire US businessman Robert Bigelow, who is also working with NASA to create a new expandable spacecraft.

Last May, Mr Bigelow stunned the world by declaring during an interview with prime time CBS current affairs show 60 Minutes intelligent aliens are secretly living on Earth, and the government knows.

The report claimed under the billionaire's direction buildings at the company headquarters were “modified” to allow the storage of the materials. 

The SETI Institute is a collective of scientists looking for evidence of alien life in the cosmos.

In a radio podcast of the Big Picture Science Skeptic Check, produced at the SETI Institute, a panel of experts discussed the New York Times article and looked at the staggering claims in the New York Times article about the metal being found.

James Oberg, a space journalist, historian and former NASA employee, said he understood the metal had not been recovered and stored by the military or government agents, but UFO hunters.

  ALIEN SHOCK: Top-secret metal ‘recovered from UFO must be made public'

Imagine a scenario where a farmer sees a UFO over his cow pasture, and later found some bits of metal in the field. He assumes - maybe wrongly - that it's connected with the sighting, and gives it to a UFO investigator.

Nick Pope

Mr Oberg said: "The money went out of the DoD to Robert Bigelow and he contracted the work out to some UFO groups to look for UFOs and who spent a lot of money retrofitting his buildings to store this material.”

Show host Seth Shostak said more details should be given on the material and what exactly was done to the buildings to store the product.

He said: "Why would the government give the material to business entrepreneur Robert Bigelow, why not to science experts in atmospheric physics or even aviation?

"Look people have been clamoring for physical evidence for decades. If that evidence is stacked up in some buildings in Las Vegas, let's open the doors.

"At the moment the promise of exotic artefacts in storage is nothing more than that.”

Fellow host Molly Bentley said: "Why aren't the artefacts from unidentified aerial phenomena in his building being made available to material scientists or other researchers for study.

"If the evidence isn't released, no one can evaluate it.”

Details of the D o D Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Programme (AATIP) investigating the threat posed by UFOs, that supposedly looked at the material, were revealed in December.

  Pentagon DOES have 'mystery metals that came from UFOs'

The project was run by military intelligence official, Luis Elizondo, on the fifth floor of the Pentagon’s C Ring.

Mr Elizondo, who resigned to form UFO research group To The Stars Academy with former Blink 182 singer Tom DeLonge's, said that the effort secretly continues and that he has a successor, whom he declined to name.

According to the New York Times article, documents from the Pentagon said metal and other materials allegedly recovered from UFOs were stored in converted buildings in Las Vegas under a US Government-funded program.

The material, that was said to be “unknown to science” following tests, was stored in buildings at Bigelow Aerospace.

However, no images have surfaced of the alleged material, nor have any details of where the objects was found, or any reports of tests carried out.

No further details were released at the time about where they were found, how many there are, or what happened to them.

It also does not appear any official reports on the materials have been released, but it is claimed that research was also carried out on people who came into contact with the material to see if there were any effects on them.

Express.co.uk has approached Mr Bigelow through Bigelow Aerospace to try to find out what happened to the material.

We have also contacted Mr Elizondo through To The Stars Academy, asking if they know what became of the materials.

We await responses from both.

Nick Pope, a former investigator of UFOs for the British Ministry of Defence (MoD), also understands the metal parts may have been obtained by UFO groups, specifically the US-based Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), which investigates UFOs and keeps a global database of sightings, but whose chief executive Jan Harzan is an alien conspiracy theorist, who believes aliens are here on Earth.

Mr Pope said: "We don't know how these alloys and other materials were obtained. 

"We're told they relate to UFOs, and if they come from some sort of military encounter, this is potentially very significant. 

"However, we also know that Bigelow Aerospace acquired all sorts of UFO-related materials from civilian UFO research groups such as the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON).”

Mr Pope said: "Imagine a scenario where a farmer sees a UFO over his cow pasture, and later found some bits of metal in the field. 

"He assumes - maybe wrongly - that it's connected with the sighting, and gives it to a UFO investigator." 

Alejandro Rojas was the official spokesperson for the MUFON at the time the AATIP ran. He does not believe the metal was provided by MUFON investigators.

He told Express.co.uk: "I do not believe that to be accurate. I do not believe MUFON had anything to do with the material. But, I can tell you it is not an alloy like the New York Times claims."

Project Blue Beam: NASA Is Beta Testing Alien Invasion

Just short of Fourth of July, which is only a few days away, man-made auroras have been spread across the skies, causing much amazement along the east coast and parts of Virginia.

This amazing display of auroras, a rare sight, was due to a long-delayed launch of the terrier-improved Malemute rocket which had encountered many obstacles just before its launch, having been delayed an astonishing ten times before it finally launched just before Independence Day.

The rocket was launched to just above 100 miles above Earth, where the rocket discharged small canisters containing colorful chemicals that burst in the atmosphere to create an artificial aurora. However, that was not the main point of the experiment.

Conspiracy theories: What is Project Blue Beam?

According to conspiracy theories, the Blue Beam Project is a secret Star Trek-like black project NASA is alledegly working on to fake an alien invasion in order unite humanity into a New Age world religion under the United Nation with the Antichrist at its head. This is considered to be the start of a New World Order as a result of this simulated Second Coming and the destruction of religious doctrines, the fourth step, with advanced laser projection technology beyond our imagination. These lasers would be used to project information and images of unimaginable supernatural forces in scale never witnessed over every major city on Earth.

Book: Project Blue beam NASA by Serge Monast

The theories about Project Blue Beam were first presented by Quebecois journalist and conspiracy theorist Serge Monast in 1994. A few yeas later he wrote the book "Project Blue Beam (NASA)". Monast died as a result of a heart attack in 1996. Conspiracy theories made the rounds that he and the coauthor of his book were in fact assassinated in an effort to cover-up his investigations into Project Blue Beam.

Nasa’s ‘fake space clouds’ look suspiciously like an Alien Invasion from Star Trek

NASA was actually researching on a deeper purpose and meaning: getting a better understanding of our Earth's atmosphere, vital to life on Earth and the health of the people and animals living on Earth. The second main point is to test equipment which will be used to study the auroras over Norway, an anomaly in our atmosphere that is vital for us as a species to understand it, such that we will be able to know how mother nature truly works, and the wonders it can do.

NASA has always ventured further, and above much of what humanity can truly do, in the vastness of our skies and beyond. Now, we can only hope that experiments are continued such that it can help our environment - and preserve it better.

Sadly, some parts of the east coast were robbed of the wonderful display as overcast skies blocked the view of the aurora. Let us hope that more chances will arise that will allow this spectacular view.

Asking someone if they believe in aliens might seem like an innocent enough question, but it’s actually really loaded. Believing in the possibility of extraterrestrial life existing somewhere is definitely not the same as believing in abductions, flying saucers, and government cover-ups. As many UFO fans celebrate the anniversary of Roswell, consider this: How come there have been fewer reports of flying saucers and alien abductions in the age of the camera phone?

Many true believers of little grey aliens consider July 8, 1947, to be a seminal moment, as it was the official date of the so-called “Roswell Incident.” According to lore, alleged real aliens crashed in Roswell, New Mexico, and were quickly hidden by the U.S. government. If you believe that alien visitors did in fact crash-land on U.S. soil on that date, that’s okay. But consider this: Most of the eye-witness accounts of the Roswell crash are not only contradictory. They also don’t provide any kind of scientific body of information for any one study. In his 1975 essay, “The Rocketing Dutchman,” Isaac Asimov elucidated the problem with considering only eye-witness accounts as “proof” of flying saucers. “Eyewitness evidence by a small number of people uncorroborated by any other sort of evidence is worthless,” Dr. Asimov wrote. “There is not a single mystical belief that is not supported by numerous cases of eyewitness evidence.”

As Asimov explained, real scientific inquiry requires impartial data. Of course, devotees and fans of The X-Files who have mistaken it for a series of non-fiction documentaries will tell you that the lack of evidence supports the existence of a cover-up. Asimov calls this kind of circular argumentation “one of the chief delights of the intellectually feeble.”

In recent years, the phenomena of a flying saucer sighting and alien abduction accounts have been viewed more soberly as sociological human quirks rather than fuzzy science fake news. Writer Jack Womack explained that his collection of UFO ephemera and cheekily titled 2016 book Flying Saucers are Real! were an attempt to catalog the beliefs of those obsessed with outlandish accounts.

“I can study TB without catching it, preferably,” Womack explained. “And I can be a student of the Bible without being a Christian.” Womack’s work on cataloging writing about flying saucer obsessions in the 20th century is exhausting. Recently, Inverse got back in touch with the author to discuss this important Roswell anniversary. This led to an important and relevant insight: “Going by both research and empirical observation, the number of UFO reports dropped off significantly in the early 21st century,” Womack said. He attributes this, at least partially, to the rise of camera phones.

Which makes sense. Arguably, the Eighties and Nineties were the peak of UFO interest in the United States. Proof? The vast majority of famous books published about UFOs and government cover-ups — most notably The Roswell Incident by Charles Berlitz and William L. Moore — were published in these two decades. And yet, once every regular citizen had a camera on them at all times in their phones, reports of UFO sightings suddenly dropped off. Did the aliens get camera-shy?

In 2012, Joe Nickell and James McGaha outlined their theory of “Roswellian Syndrome” for the Skeptical Inquirer. Nickell and McGaha echo sci-fi author William Gibson’s observation that flying saucer theories are meme-like, insofar as they will experience a media bandwagon period, as well as a period of not being so interesting to the mainstream. They also predict that a reboot of everyone you know suddenly believing in Roswell is coming, too.

Basically, because it hasn’t been hip to believe in abductions for a while, this can cause these kinds of beliefs to come back with a vengeance. “During a period of submergence, the mythologizing tendency has been at work followed by a reemergence—rather like a new, more virulent strain of a virus.”

Nickell and McGaha point out that contemporary “UFOlogists are always looking for a Holy Grail case to verify their belief.” And the problem there is that a holy grail could easily exist. If only those abducted by aliens would remember to get a clear image of saucer men captured on their iPhones.

THE MOST SHOCKING EVIDENCE THAT EARTH WAS VISITED BY ANCIENT ALIENS

The very words give me the chills: ancient aliens. In the early 1970s, when Erich von Däniken first released Chariots of the Gods, he called them “ancient astronauts”—a name that’s equally creepy. The Apollo missions were still going on, and the image of astronauts was fresh in everyone’s minds. Could ancient alien beings have arrived on Earth in the distant past? Would they have worn spacesuits, like our own astronauts?

If they truly visited our planet in millennia past: why were they here? What did the aliens do while they were on Earth?

Researchers have spent a lot of time looking into the question of whether we were visited so many millennia ago. The popular television show Ancient Aliens, although well-intentioned, has muddied the water in their search of show material—did we really need an episode asking whether aliens interfered with the American Civil War? (C’mon, guys. You’re off the reservation.)

Although we may not be ever know for sure that we had extraterrestrial visitors thousands of years in the past, perhaps if they did come, they might have left us modern people some clues. Let’s take a look at some of the most clear—and startling—evidence for the existence of ancient aliens on Earth.

ANCIENT ALIENS VISIT THE DOGON TRIBE?

African Tribe Possessed Knowledge Science Had Yet to Discover

The Dogon tribe and the Sirius Mystery are amazing enough that we’ve covered them elsewhere.

This African tribe (whose name is pronounced “DOE-gone”) has known all sorts of specifics about the star Sirius for thousands of years, passed down from holy man to holy man. We’re talking details here, like how Sirius has a companion star (“Sirius B”), and that it circles the main star (“Sirius A”) every 50 years. Here’s the thing: it is absolutely true—but modern scientists didn’t know these things about Sirius until the middle of the 19th century. The Dogon knew a thousand years ago. Heck, the Dogon also knew that Sirius has a second companion star, and scientists didn’t discover it (“Sirius C”) until the 1990s.

How did the Dogon get this scientific information about Sirius B? If you ask them, they’ll tell you that the tribe was visited by the Nommos, an amphibian-like race that came from the Sirius star system in a noisy “ark” that spun and whipped up wind while it landed. It was the Nommos, a race of ancient aliens, who told the Dogon about their homeworld and its star cluster.

Knee-jerk skeptics like to invent reasons why all this can’t be true. Westerners must have stopped by and told them about Sirius, one denier said. There’s no way, though: the Dogon have artifacts that are thousands of years old, depicting Sirius and its companions. No one should have known this stuff that long ago, but the Dogon did.

This short video does a good job explaining the ancient Dogon knowledge. (I have no idea why the narrator pronounces Sirius as “SIGH-ree-us”, but we can give him a pass on that.)

THE PROPHET EZEKIEL DESCRIBES HIS ENCOUNTER WITH ANCIENT UFOS—IN THE BIBLE

Holy Scriptures Contain Account of Alien Contact?

Ask Erich von Däniken, the guy who pioneered the search for ancient aliens, and he’ll tell you his favorite evidence is in the Old Testament. It’s the story of Ezekiel and his bizarre encounter with UFOs.

Ezekiel was a prophet living in exile with the rest of the Hebrews in the land they called Babylon. Being a prophet was a highfalutin job back then, but Ezekiel’s life got even stranger—stranger than just being a guy who received special messages from the creator of the universe.

The prophet Ezekiel encounters a UFO and aliens 2,500 years ago

I looked, and I saw a windstorm coming out of the north—an immense cloud with flashing lightning and surrounded by brilliant light. The center of the fire looked like glowing metal, and in the fire was what looked like four living creatures. In appearance their form was human, but each of them had four faces and four wings.

Ezekiel 1:1-6

Some people read this and think: the dude was taking drugs. Others (knee-jerk skeptics) say: oh, it’s just more Biblical mumbo-jumbo. Devout people may say that Ezekiel saw angels.

Maybe.

What if this was Ezekiel actually saw something, and he didn’t know what it was, or how to explain it? If he actually encountered ancient aliens, how would he describe them? We think he’d probably describe them just like he did.

Next Ezekiel describes the machine that the being had arrived in, the machine that landed in a rush of wind.

Ezekiel confronts the great wheels within wheels. Did he meet ancient aliens?

I saw a wheel on the ground beside each creature with its four faces. This was the appearance and structure of the wheels: They sparkled like topaz … each appeared to be made like a wheel intersecting a wheel. As they moved, they would go in any one of the four directions the creatures faced; the wheels did not change direction as the creatures went.

Ezekiel 1:15-19

Doesn’t that sound like a spacecraft to you? Why would a man living 500 years B.C. write a description that sounds so much like the landing and maneuvering of an alien ship? Surely this was not just random. Remember: Ezekiel was devoutly religious, and he would interpret amazing events as signs from God. If beings appeared, he would assume they were angels. But perhaps they were ancient aliens.

What about their technology? Ezekiel’s description was of an alien craft with advanced maneuverability.

This story of the machine that had wheels-within-wheels impressed NASA engineer Joe Blumrich a lot. A wheel that could move in any direction without having to turn—that sounded like something a planetary exploration vehicle could use. He went on to invent a wheel based on Ezekiel’s description, and called it the “omni wheel.” Joe received a US patent for it in 1972. Today, omni wheels are routinely used in robot vehicles. Blumrich also wrote a popular book, The Spaceships of Ezekiel, in which he explained that after starting out intending to disprove the idea, he’d become convinced that Ezekiel truly had been writing about an encounter with ancient aliens.

“THOSE WHO CAME FROM THE SKIES TO THE EARTH”

World’s Oldest Civilization Leaves Record of Alien Contact

The ancient Sumerians lived 5,000 years ago in what’s now the country of Iraq. They left behind humankind’s first writings, books older than the Bible and the Hindu Vedas.

The Sumerians wrote a lot about the Anunnaki, whose name means “those who came from the skies to Earth”. Modern scholars have assumed that the stories of the Annunaki were just myths about Sumerian gods—but the stories themselves sound more like tales of ancient aliens.

In the writings, the Annunaki came to Earth from a lost planet in our solar system—one with such a wide orbit that it rarely approaches us. They called the planet Nibiru.

The leaders of the ancient aliens were named Enki and Enlil. They were here for gold, a mineral they needed but did not have enough of. Mines were set up there in Sumer, but also in Africa as well. Vusamazulu Credo Mutwa, a Zulu elder and author of Zulu Shaman: Dreams, Prophecies, and Mysteries, says that ancient tribal traditions speak of “visitors from the stars” who mined for gold.

After mining for some time, the Anunnaki realized that the local humanoids—Homo Erectus, our ancestors—might make useful slaves if they could make them smarter. After improving the proto-humans, presumably with DNA modification, they managed to create a hybrid race: part Anunnaki, part early human. These new beings, called the Adamu, were the first real humans. They were also the new slaves who would work in the gold mines.

Ancient Sumerian cylindrical seal shows an accurate map of our solar system

Our hybrid ancestors didn’t stand for this situation for long, though, probably because these newly created beings were far too smart. Who wants to be a slave? They eventually rose up and rebelled, and eventually, a new Adamu society formed, one which maintained an uneasy truce with the Anunnaki.

The Sumerians recorded this history after first inventing writing. They also made engravings and art of the Anunnaki along with knowledge they had received from them—for instance, an ancient Sumerian seal depicts the Sumerian “gods” along with an accurate representation of our solar system, with 11 planets. The planets have correct proportions (Jupiter is the largest, then Saturn, and so on), and the depiction also includes the asteroid belt. Remember that modern science only discovered Uranus and Neptune in the past 150 years, and that scientists are only now saying that there is gravitational evidence for a “lost” planet with a weird, oblong orbit. Are there truly 11 planets? It may be so.

Sumerian artwork always depicts members of the Anunnaki as having wings. Did they actually have wings? It seems unlikely—many researchers believe the wings are meant to show that the Anunnaki had the ability to fly, as in ships. Other strange and telling things appear in the artwork: the goddess Ishtar’s symbol, which stood for the concept of “life”, bears a striking resemblance to the entwined double helix of DNA. Could that be more than a coincidence?

We’ve been kind of critical of the show Ancient Aliens, but this segment from an early episode explains all this pretty well (below). We also very much like this documentary about the Anunnaki and the planet Nibiru.

ANCIENT ALIENS FIGHT WARS IN THE SKIES OF ANCIENT INDIA

Hindu Holy Books Called The Vedas Describe Alien Encounters

There is strong evidence that ancient aliens visited other places around the Earth. In India, for example, the ancient holy books known as The Vedas tell of a space war between ships and fought in the skies. The descriptions of the ships are remarkable—translated, it is difficult to imagine that they were describing anything except spacecraft.

The Vedas state that “strong and durable must the body of the Vimana be made, like a great flying bird of light material. Inside one must put the mercury engine with its iron heating apparatus underneath. By means of the power latent in the mercury which sets the driving whirlwind in motion, a man sitting inside may travel a great distance in the sky. The movements of the Vimana are such that it can vertically ascend, vertically descend, move slanting forwards and backwards. With the help of the machines human beings can fly in the air and heavenly beings can come down to earth.”

Spacecraft as described in the ancient Hindu holy books called The Vedas

No, that’s not a spacecraft they’re describing. No way.

“Fifty years of researching this ancient works convinces me that there are living beings on other planets and that they visited Earth as far back as 4,000 BC. There is just a mass of fascinating information about flying machines, even fantastic science fiction weapons that can be found in translations of The Vedas, Indian epics and other ancient Sanskrit text.” That’s Dr. Vijaya Raghavan, speaking; he was head of the Sanskrit department of the University of Madras in India (now retired). His job, if it’s not obvious, was to study The Vedas; his conclusion was that they described real events in which aliens came to Earth.

In other parts of The Vedas, we get a description of something that can only be a nuclear explosion.

“Gurkha flying in his swift and powerful Vimana hurled against the three cities of the Vrishis and Andhakas a single projectile charged with all the power of the Universe. An incandescent column of smoke and fire, as brilliant as ten thousands suns, rose in all its splendor. It was the unknown weapon, the Iron Thunderbolt, a gigantic messenger of death which reduced to ashes the entire race of the Vrishnis and Andhakas.”

So what do we make of that? Just ancient imagination that happens to sound exactly like nuclear devastation? Sure, you deniers and skeptics, sure. You’re probably right. It’s ancient nonsense. Right?

Hungry for more?

Check out Google searches about the Nazca lines, and the Mayan king Pakal at the pyramid of Palenque. We could go on; there’s a lot of strange evidence on our Earth that is dismissed far too easily by mainstream science. Because the universe is mundane, and it has to be mundane—that is, if you’re a knee-jerk skeptic addicted to the idea that the universe is mundane.

Now, if you want to see the original film that inspired all this hysteria, it’s below: Chariots of the Gods, from the early 1970s. Yes, sure, it’s cheesy—it’s from the ’70s! But it’s still pretty cool, we think.

Americans would welcome alien life rather than fear it

U.S. volunteers were pretty positive about the hypothetical discovery of E.T.

BY MARIA TEMMING 

ITSY BITSY ALIENS Americans would probably welcome the discovery of microbial alien life.

3000AD/SHUTTERSTOCK

AUSTIN, Texas — If alien microbes crash-land on Earth, they may get a warm welcome.

When people were asked how they would react to the discovery of extraterrestrial microbial life, they give generally positive responses, researchers reported at a news conference February 16 at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.

This suggests that if microbial life is found on Mars, Saturn’s icy moon Enceladus (SN: 5/13/17, p. 6) or elsewhere in the solar system, “we’ll take the news rather well,” said Michael Varnum, a social psychologist at Arizona State University in Tempe. What’s more, the tone of news reports announcing potential evidence for intelligent aliens suggests people would welcome that news, too.

Varnum and colleagues asked about 500 online volunteers — all in the United States — to describe how they would react if they learned scientists had discovered alien microbes. Varnum’s team analyzed each response using software that determined the fraction of words indicating positive emotion, such as “nice,” and negative emotion, like “worried.” The program also scanned for reward- and risk-focused words, such as “benefit” and “danger.”

MARTIAN MICROBES In 1996, a Martian meteorite (top) made headlines when researchers reported it might have harbored microbial alien life (bottom) — a claim that has not found widespread support among the scientific community.

FROM TOP: JSC/NASA; NASA

People generally used more positive and reward-oriented words than negative and risk-oriented ones to describe their anticipated reactions. The same held true when participants were asked how they expected everyone else to take the news.

In another study, Varnum’s team asked about 500 U.S.-based volunteers to read one of two newspaper articles. One from 1996 reported the discovery of evidence for fossilized Martian microbes in a meteorite (SN: 8/10/96, p. 84). In the second, researchers announced in 2010 that they had created a synthetic bacterial cell in the lab (SN: 6/19/10, p. 5).

Both groups responded favorably to the articles, but the people who read about Martian microbes had a more positive reaction. This suggests that while people feel good about discoveries of any previously unknown life-forms, they are particularly keen on finding aliens, Varnum says.

But “any finding that comes from one population — like Americans — you have to take with a grain of salt,” Varnum says. He and his colleagues now hope to gather responses from participants of different cultures, to compare how people across the globe would take the news of alien microbes. 

Psychologist and SETI researcher Douglas Vakoch, who heads the nonprofit organization Messaging Extraterrestrial Intelligence in San Francisco, suggests researchers also gauge reactions to different scenarios of alien microbial discovery. The Martian meteorite described in the 1996 article “has been on Earth for a long time and nothing bad has happened,” says Vakoch, who wasn’t involved in the work. “That’s a really safe scenario.” But, he wonders, are people as gung-ho about the prospect of finding live microbes on other planets or aboard meteorites? 

And what if the aliens were intelligent? “If you find intelligent life elsewhere, [you] know that you’re not the only kid on the block,” says Seth Shostak, an astronomer at the SETI Institute in Mountain View, Calif. Knowing that human intelligence isn’t so special after all could provoke a much different emotional response than finding mere microbes “like pond scum in space,” Shostak says.

To get a sense of how people would feel about finding intelligent aliens, Varnum analyzed reports that the interstellar asteroid ‘Oumuamua could be an alien spaceship (SN Online: 12/18/17). The news articles took a largely positive angle. So the broader public might also take kindly to the discovery of little green men, Varnum says.

UFO 'evidence': Recordings reveal air traffic control's confusion at strange craft over Oregon

On October 25, a strange craft was seen — in broad daylight — flying amid the heavy traffic of the United States’ air corridors above the state of Oregon.

Pilots radioed in reports of an aircraft flying outside registered flight plans. It was not responding to radio calls. It had no collision-avoidance transponders. But it was always just outside clear sight.

On the ground, air traffic control was also seeing strange things. Its radar was intermittently tracking an unregistered object moving at unusually high speeds.

It was cause for real concern.

After all, 9/11 showed the potential havoc aircraft flying “dark” could achieve.

So F-15 interceptor fighters from the U.S. Air Force were scrambled to take a look.

The story was first picked up by "The War Zone" blog of the automotive website The Drive. It tracked down comments from the pilots that had seen something strange that day. It also obtained confirmation — of sorts — from the U.S. air base that launched the fighters.

Now "War Zone" has obtained ─ through a freedom of information claim ─ a small mountain of documents and hours of audio recordings detailing Oregon’s air traffic controllers' actions.

Amid the accounts of phone calls, radio exchanges and pilot interviews is an enticing picture of what a substantive UFO report looks like, and how authorities struggle to make sense of what is going on above them.

‘THAT LOOKS CRAZY’

The unidentified flying object was first detected tearing through the air above Northern California by radar stations in Oakland. It was 4:30 p.m. It was unexpected. It was traveling “very fast at 37,000”.

It wasn’t supposed to be there.

At this point the recordings reveal the U.S. military was also aware of the strange aircraft. Air traffic controllers are told the Air Force was examining the radar track.

Then the unknown flying object did something potentially dangerous.

It took a sudden turn into a crowded stream of commercial airliners.

There it disappeared from radar.

But not from sight.

Startled commercial pilots began calling in reports.

Concerned and confused, for the next 30 minutes pilots and controllers tried to make sense of what was going on.

The audio recordings tell the tale of an obviously bemused controller responding to pilots. He directs other pilots on where to look. He asks if any of their air safety proximity sensors were registering it.

The military was also in the loop: references to elements of the US air defense command NORAD can be heard — “WADS” and “Bigfoot”.

Fighters are ordered into the air from the McChord Air Force Base in Washington.

What was the aircraft? Where was it going? What was it doing?

All they had to go on was that it appeared to be big. It was colored white. It was flying at about 37,000 feet.

It was now moving about the same speed as commercial airliners. It was not on radar, and was emitting no signals.

It never strayed closer than the edge of visual range.

“STEALTH MODE OR SOMETHING”

The radar and audio recordings reveal the F-15 interceptor fighters took to the air out of Portland. Dubbed “Rock” flight, these fighter aircraft are just some of those kept at a high alert status around the United States for incidents such as these after 9/11.

Strangely, they head south even as reports from commercial airliners indicate the strange craft was to the north.

One pilot calls air traffic control for an update: what’s going on?

The controller responds the UFO must be in “stealth mode or something”.

But by now it has slipped out of sight.

Losing touch with such an unregistered aircraft is no small thing.

Would it suddenly appear diving into the heart of a nearby city?

The scars of September 11 run deep.

So the urgent phone calls started.

MAINTAINING MYSTERY

Here the War Zone notes some unusual aspects of the Federal Aviation Authority recordings released under freedom of information requests.

“There were a few strange areas where conversations went mute and it’s not clear if this was edited or just an anomaly,” the blog reports.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, the redacted components appear to be responses to requests for information about the military’s activities.

“When the Manager In Charge is asked if he was asking for military assistance by another FAA controller, the tape goes blank,” War Zone reports. “The same inquiry is heard moments later, and it goes silent again before another call begins.”

And again later, another “blank” occurs as pilots are asked about what they saw.

During a call with United 612 there are some odd “dead” moments in the audio, but the pilot is heard describing the encounter, stating that he was too far away to make out the type.

The pilot of Southwest 4712 was a little more forthcoming.

“This was a white airplane and it was big. And it was moving at a clip too, because we were keeping pace with it, it was probably moving faster than we were.”

FALLOUT

The recordings continue long after the strange craft slips out of sight.

Seattle’s air traffic control manager in charge of operations urgently interrogates controllers and three of the airline pilots that reported visual contact — as well as air traffic security and an safety officers.

Everyone had to submit written reports.

Had they responded correctly?

Should the commercial airliners have been ordered to keep the strange aircraft in sight?

Was the unknown flying object a threat, and should the airliners have been ordered to scatter?

Whatever the outcome, one air traffic controller hit the situation on the head with one off-the-cuff comment:

“I have a feeling someone is going to go through this with a fine-tooth comb.”

POSSIBILITIES AND PROBABILITIES

It’s tempting to immediately make the mental leap to aliens, but extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

Occam’s razor makes the fair point that when seeking an explanation for something unusual, choose the one that makes the least assumptions as being the most likely.

So what could such an explanation be?

Oregon is in the country’s northwest. It’s alongside the state of Nevada. Nevada is the site of the ultra-secret U.S. Air Force testing facility, Area 51 (or more officially Groom Lake).

We know the U.S. Air Force is fast-tracking development of its next generation stealth bomber, the B-21 “Raider”. We also know that absolutely everything about this aircraft — including its cost — is top secret.

And that’s probably one of the least secret projects being worked on at Area 51.

But a test pilot first allowing to be detected on radar and then entering a highway of commercial airliners in plain sight, is unprofessional in the least.

And the U.S. is no longer the only nation with stealth technology. Russia. China. Both have caught up and — in an increasingly belligerent world — are likely to “send messages” through overflights such as this.

So when it comes to the idea of ET taking a wrong turn at Albuquerque, it beggars belief that such a super intelligence capable of traveling vast interstellar distances would let itself be seen — if it didn’t want to be.

Remarkably bizarre deep sea creatures – not a freak show

 BY MIHAI ANDREI

OK, I know, the internet is full of articles articles about freak creatures – “The most bizarre ocean creatures“, “Deep sea monsters“, etc – and I don’t like those articles. These creatures are not monsters, they are not freaks – they are remarkably adapted to an extremely unfriendly environment, with immense pressure, low temperatures and a lack of light. So maybe we could start treating them less as a freak show, and try to understand them and learn from their curiosities?

1. The Angler fish

You’ve probably seen this iconic creature before – it’s like they’re a mascot for the abyssal area. However, only some of them live in the deep sea, while others inhabit the continental shelf. Pelagic forms are most laterally compressed whereas the benthic forms are often more vertically compressed, with long mouths.

Via National Geographic.

They’re called “angler fish” due to their unusual hunting techniques – basically, they emit light (bioluminescence) to attract unsuspecting fish, which will be devoured if they come close enough. Naturally, there is no light in the deep oceans, so their bioluminescence is really appealing to  victims. However, they don’t do it by themselves – the light is a result of symbiosis with a bacteria, the mechanism of which is not entirely understood. But what really makes them unique is their reproduction system.

That thing in the red circle – that’s the male. Image Credits.

When scientists first discovered angler fish, they were rather puzzled by the fact that they only found females; furthermore, these females appeared to have some sort of parasite attached to them. Well, here’s the kicker: those “parasites” were actually the males! The sole purpose of the male’s life is to find a female host, without which he can’t survive for long. After he does find a female, the male bites into her skin, and the two are “fused” together, until the point where the only discernible parts of the male are its gonads. The male is still alive and he shares the female’s circulatory system, but he is basically a parasite which occasionally pays his dues by providing her with sperm on the spot so that she might impregnate herself. This is called parasitic reproduction. This extreme sexual dimorphism ensures that, when the female is ready to spawn, she has a mate immediately available – something which can be quite difficult in the deep sea; she also doesn’t have to spend additional resources to find a mate, resources which are scarce in this environment.

Examples of angler fish species. Via Wikipedia.

Not all angler fish exhibit this extremely unusual reproduction system, many families and genera  exhibit “normal” reproduction. It’s not clear why this is happens, but there are several theories – here’s one of them: females have to remain larger to accommodate fecundity; therefore, in the deep areas, there is a low density of females, so males had very little choice when it came to choosing a mate. In such an environment, evolution would make them become smaller and smaller and evolve more advanced and sophisticated methods of finding a mate.If a male manages to find a female parasitic attachment then it is ultimately more likely to improve lifetime fitness relative to free-living, he would be more successful (have more offspring), and thus the technique would spread).

2. The blobfish

No wonder he’s sad…

Unofficially declared “the ugliest animal in the world”, the blobfish is actually really interesting. They inhabit the deep waters off Australia, New Zealand and Tasmania, living at depths of 600 to 1200 meters (2000 – 4000 ft).At that depth, pressure is tens of times bigger than at the surface – and therefore gas bladders would be inefficient. Gas bladders are internal gas-filled organs that contribute to the ability of a fish to control its buoyancy, floating up or down with relative ease. The blobfish found an alternative to that: its flesh is basically a gelatinous mass with a density slightly less than water; this allows the fish to float above the sea floor without expending energy on swimming. He may be lazy, but he’s pretty efficient – and there’s a reason why he looks like that.

Artistic representation; this is what blobfish look like in their natural environment. Source: Wikipedia.

When it lives underwater, at huge pressures, the blobfish looks quite different – the pressure keeps its body looking like you see above, but when you take it out, it starts to puff up due to the decompression. I’d say, that in its natural habitat, he’s quite a nifty fellow.

In September 2013 the blobfish was voted the “World’s Ugliest Animal”, based on photographs of decompressed specimens, and adopted as the mascot of the Ugly Animal Preservation Society, in an initiative to help preserve animals which were not blessed with what we, humans, consider to be “cuteness”.

3. The goblin shark

The goblin shark is a very rare and poorly understood animal – arguably the least understood shark species. The only survivor of its family Mitsukurinidae, a lineage some 125 million years old, they are quite the puzzling creatures.

While you could see some resemblance to other shark species, this animal looks like no other shark.  It is usually between 3 and 4 meters long when mature, though it can grow much larger than that (it’s not exactly clear just how much); you shouldn’t worry however, because they live at over 100 meters deep, with mature specimens living way deeper than that.

Various anatomical features of the goblin shark, such as its flabby body and small fins, suggest that it is sluggish in nature, and they have a very reduced skeleton and weak muscles – therefore it is not a fast swimmer, but probably a stalker, relying on ambush tactics. The long snout appears to have a sensory function, detecting electric fields from other creatures. They don’t survive on the surface, despite Japanese attempts at keeping them in special aquariums. I really wish the Japanese would stop doing stupid things like that.

4. Gulper eel

The Gulper eel is another poorly understood species. They are superficially similar to other eel species, but have many internal differences. Their most notable attribute is the big mouth, bigger than the rest of the body. The mouth is loosely hinged, and can be opened wide enough to swallow an animal much larger than itself, but it usually only eats small crustaceans.

Not much is known about the reproductive habits of the gulper eel. We do know that as they mature, the males undergo a change that causes enlargement of the olfactory organs, responsible for the sense of smell, and degeneration of the teeth and jaws – they give up on some hunting abilities in order to be more successful in finding a mate.

They live deep undersea, at depths between 150-1.800 meters (500 to 6.000 feet).

5. Barrel Eye

Via Wikpiedia.

The Barrel Eye is an incredible species named for their barrel-shaped, tubular eyes, which are generally directed upwards to detect the silhouettes of available prey. The tubular eyes generally look upwards, but they can also turn forward.

Via Wikipedia.

To better serve their vision, barreleyes have large, dome-shaped, transparent heads, arguably allowing them to collect any bit of light that might stumble their way, which is crucial at the depths they inhabit – 400–2.500 m deep. They reproduce by massively ejecting eggs and sperm, which are buoyant. the larvae and juveniles drift with the currents—likely at much shallower depths than the adults, and as they grow, they drift deeper.

6. The Dumbo Octopus

Image Credits.

The Dumbo octopus looks like, well, you could say it looks like Dumbo, Disney’s elephant… except it doesn’t. It is the deepest living octopus, inhabiting the oceans between 3.000 and 7.000 meters (9.800 to 23.000 feet).

They can flush the transparent layer of their skin at will, and are pelagic animals, measuring under 2 meters (7 feet). The Dumbo octopus is strange in the way it consumes food in that it swallows its prey whole, which differs from any other kind of octopus.

7. The Giant Isopod

Image Credits: Wikipedia.

Let’s change things up a little, and look at this species – well, group of species actually. A giant isopod is any of the almost 20 species of large isopod related to shrimps and crabs. They average between 20-36 centimeters (0.75 – 1.1 feet), but can occasionally grow beyond that. They have seven pairs of legs, the first of which are modified into maxillipeds to manipulate and bring food to the four sets of jaws. They’re pretty similar in appearance and overall beaviour.

Image Credits.

Their are also “living fossils” (like the goblin shark) – similar creatures were found in the fossil record 160 million years ago. They can be found on the bottom of deep seas, scavenging any food that may fall from the shallow waters or hunting anything that’s smaller then them and moves slow. When they find abundant food, they can gorge themselves to the point of compromising their locomotive ability. Luckily for them, food is not very abundant in their natural environment – and they have to spend a lot of time finding it.

8. Stargazer

Via National Geographic.

The stargazers are a family of fish with eyes and mouth directed upwards, on top of their heads.

Via Wikipedia.

They usually bury themselves in the sand and leap upwards to attack their prey as it swims by. Thing is, even if they’re not directly successful, they are poisonous, and can track their injured prey down. Also, they are able to deliver electric shocks to stun their prey – pretty neat, huh? Not if you’re their prey, that’s for sure. They are some of the few marine bioelectrogenic bony fishes.

9. The Hatchetfish

Image Credits.

Deep sea Hatchetfish should not be confused with  the freshwater hatchetfishes, which are not particularly closely related to them – it’s just a name similarity, basically; we’re interested in the deep sea creature.

Via Discover Magazine.

When you look at them, don’t forget that  they’re really small in size, almost never measuring over 10 centimeters.

Image Credits.

Given the depths at which they live (50-1.500 meters), their tiny bodies have adapted to the pressure. The marine hatchetfish is also endowed with bioluminescent properties, which allow it to evade predators lurking in the depths below – it’s more of a defensive mechanism. Their scales are silvery, delicate and easily abrade.

10. The Chimaera

Chimaeras are cartilaginous fishes. Wait a minute, sharks are cartilaginous fishes, and the chimaeras do look like sharks, so aren’t they sharks? Well no – not really. Based on the fossil record, scientists believe that they were once really abundant in shallow waters as well, but now, they’re mostly reserved to deep waters. They separated from the sharks nearly 400 million years ago and have remained isolated ever since. You could say that they’re more related to sharks than fish, however.

They live in temperate ocean floors down to 2,600 m (8,500 ft) deep, with few occurring at depths shallower than 200 m (660 ft). They lack sharks’ many sharp and replaceable teeth, having instead just three pairs of large permanent grinding tooth plates, and they are the only vertebrates to retain traces of a third pair of limbs. Not all of them look as eccentric as the one above though.

11. The Colossal Squid

Not to be confused with the Giant Squid is the largest squid species, growing up to 12–14 m (39–46 ft) long. It is also the largest known invertebrate.

There are not many pictures of actual colossal squid. This is the largest cephalopod ever recorded. Here it is shown in its live state during capture, with the delicate red skin still intact and the mantle characteristically inflated. More info here.

Not much is known about them, but their range varies from a few hundred meters to at least 2.200 kilometers. They are so big that they probably caused the belief in a mythical monster, the kraken – a legendary sea monster of giant proportions that is said to dwell off the coasts of Norway and Greenland. They are the preferred prey of a number of whales. They have a small metabolic rate, and probably rely on ambush to hunt their prey, using their big eyes to scout. The method of reproduction was not observed, but it is known that females are much larger than males, something not uncommon in invertebrates.

12. The Dragonfish

This is an artistic illustration, but yes – that’s how they look, as you can also see below. Credits.

Dragonfish are small deep sea creatures. While they may look extremely fierce and dangerous, they measure only 10-20 centimeters. However, they can be found at depths of 2 kilometers, but they start their life near the surface, as their eggs are buoyant.

Credits.

Like many other deep sea creatures, it eventually becomes capable of producing its own light through bioluminescence, when it is ready to move on to the deep sea. One of its many light producing photophores can be found on a barbel attached to its lower jaw, which it most likely uses for hunting. I’m a broken record, I know – but not much is known about this species.

13. The Fangtooth

Via National Geographic.

They are among the deepest-living fish, found as far as 5,000 m (16,400 ft) down. They sometimes hunt in small groups, but more often they do it alone. However, they’re not the most perceptive creature, relying on luck to bump into something edible. The smaller teeth and longer gill rakers of juveniles suggest they feed primarily by filtering zooplankton from the water.

Credits.

They’re also small, rarely growing over 20 centimeters, and like many miniature beasts of the abyss, they feature disproportionately large teeth. The function of these teeth is offensive – basically, in the extremely harsh environment in which they live, anything must be considered a meal – or a predator. Big teeth equal big weapons. The fangtooth has proportionately the largest teeth of any fish in the ocean – but still, even if, in all absurdity, they would stumble upon a human, they would be pretty harmless.

Fangtooths are known to be robust when compared to many other deep-sea fish, surviving for months when captured and placed in aquariums. Again, I really with that people would stop trying to take these fish out of there environments and put them somewhere on display – they can’t survive this treatment, and it’s a slow, painful end.

14. The Frilled Shark

Image Credits.

The Frilled Shark is another “living fossil” – a seldom seen specimen inhabiting  the depths of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Scientists speculate that it captures its prey by bending its body and lunging forward like a snake, often swallowing its prey whole. A 1.6 m (5.2 ft) long individual, caught off the coast of Japan was found to have swallowed a 590 g (1.30 lb) Japanese catshark.

Notice the long, terminally positioned jaws, and the strange teeth. Via Wikipedia.

It reaches a length of 2 m (6.6 ft) and has a dark brown, eel-like body. With its elongated body and impressive aspect, it has long been likened to the mythical sea serpent. The many small, sharp, recurved teeth of the frilled shark are functionally similar to squid jigs and could easily snag the body or tentacles of a squid, though they probably like to take advantage of injured or tired individuals.

These are just a few of the fascinating creatures which inhabit the deep sea – hopefully, if this article has reached its purpose, you understand that they are not monsters or freaks – they are adapted to their extreme environment (hundreds of bars of pressure, small amounts of oxygen, very little food, no sunlight, and constant, extreme cold) –  extreme environment requires extreme adaptations. Many of them rely on food falling from above, and for them, there are mostly two types of creatures: things you can eat, or things that can eat you. Sometimes it’s hard to draw a line between the two.

Humans have explored less than 2% of the ocean floor, and dozens of new species of deep sea creatures are discovered with every dive.

The mysterious deep-sea Dumbo octopus hatchlings look just like adults [with video]

BY MIHAI ANDREI

When most creatures are sent into this world, they don’t have the capacity to take care of themselves. Their body is insufficiently developed, their mind is still a work in progress, and they certainly don’t have the ability to hunt. But the Dumbo octopus is different, researchers have learned. Dumbo octopus hatchlings are basically miniature versions of adults, emerging with a fully formed body, a complex nervous system, and the ability to navigate their surroundings.

The Dumbo octopus.

The Dumbo octopus is a strange animal. We don’t know that much about it, largely because it generally lives at depths of 3,000 to 4,000 meters (9,800 to 13,100 ft), with some living up to 7,000 meters (23,000 ft) below sea level — the deepest of any known octopus. The creature takes its name from Disney’s fictional elephant Dumbo, due to the prominent ear-like fins located above each eye, which look like Dumbo’s giant ears. But these prominent fins do more than just raise similarity with a fictional elephant: they propel the octopus through unique, flapping motions.

It’s not easy to study a creature that spends most of its time kilometers beneath the surface, so researchers were thrilled when they came across the first Dumbo eggs ever observed.

Tim Shank at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution first noticed one in 2005. As he was working with remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) to explore the Northwest Atlantic, he observed what appeared to be tan-colored golf balls attached to coral branches. They were too interesting to just pass by, so he collected a few.

“With each successive collection, it became apparent that this was some sort of an egg case,” Shank says. “The first few were open and empty, the next two contained a white gelatinous mass within, and the final collection yielded the specimen described in the paper.”

Most of them were cracked (the octopus had already hatched), but one was still intact. So he took it inside the lab, placed it in a bucket in a cold room that mimics its natural environment, and observed it.

The egg started to crack, and the tiny octopus peaked its head.

“Once the fins were observed while it was still in the bucket, it was clear that it was a ‘dumbo’ octopod,” says Elizabeth Shea at the Delaware Museum of Natural History.

At first, it didn’t move much, but after a while, it started to swim around, in the video you can see above. Researchers were quite surprised to see just how well the octopus navigated its surroundings. Seemingly fully formed right from the start, the hatchling can see and chemically sense its environment, and an internal yolk sac also gives it a little time to successfully capture a first meal. However, it seems perfectly competent to already hunt on its own.

“The virtual exploration and 3D reconstruction of the internal anatomy of this deep-sea creature was particularly revealing,” says study co-author Alexander Ziegler from Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn in Germany. “I was impressed by the complexity of the central nervous system and the relative size of fins and the internal shell. However, for me as a zoologist, the most interesting aspect of our discovery remains the close interaction between the dumbo egg and the deep-sea coral host.”

Dumbos typically hover above the sea floor, where they look for worms, crustaceans, or other small creatures they can hunt. It’s intriguing that they hatch so well-formed, but what researchers are most interested in now is establishing the environmental relationship between the octopus and the corals which host its eggs.

“We knew that adults are predominantly benthopelagic [living and feeding near the seafloor, as well as in mid waters or nearer to the surface], that females lay eggs on the ocean bottom, and that octopod eggs come in a variety of sizes, colors, and textures,” Shea says. “Our work connects the dots between a particular egg, a particular coral, and a particular octopod.”.

Wikileaks Documents Leaked Confirming The Existence Of Extraterrestrial Life & UFOs

Julian Assange has grabbed the attention of the entire planet, as both mainstream and alternative media networks have covered Wikileaks in depth. For those who don’t know, Wikileaks is an international, online, non-profit organization that publishes secret (classified) documents,  information, news leaks and other classified material from anonymous sources. They are no different from Bradley Manning and Edward Snowden. As I’ve mentioned before, they’ve been a tremendous threat to the controlling elite for a number of years and have gained the attention of major mainstream media outlets worldwide, mny of whom have bashed Assange, pointing to the idea that the release of classified documents is a threat to national security. Wrong, it’s simply a threat to secrecy, information and truth. America alone classifies over five hundred million pages of documents per year. Think about a historian trying to study history, or technological development, science and more, how can they properly do this if most of this information is constantly kept secret from the general population?

That’s why organizations like Wikileaks are so important, as they shed light on truth that most of the human race knows nothing about, and one of them is the reality of UFOs and extraterrestrials.

Wikileaks is a major attention grabber, so it’s a great way to bring more attention to the UFO/extraterrestrial phenomenon that’s been gaining heavy interest over the last few years.

As far as UFO documents go, the Wikileaks ones are not really significant compared to what’s already available in the public domain. They do however show that these topics are still mentioned in highly classified documents.

Again, we already have a number of (more significant and telling) documents that have been released into the public domain, as well as statements from high ranking military and political figures. To see some of these documents and whistle-blowers, you can refer to the last article I wrote on this subject by clickingHERE.  For more articles on this subject from Collective Evolution, you can click HERE.

Wikileaks UFO/Extraterrestrial Documents

Prominent Lithuanian politician says that there are a “group of UFOs, who are making influence from the Cosmos.” That “there exists a decreasing group of persons, who are trying to rationally analyze the situation and objectively evaluate what is happening.” (source)

This cable comes from the year 2006 from the American Embassy in Vilnius, Lithuania. The statement was made by Albinas Januska, who at the time was appointed adviser to the Lithuanian Prime Minister.

Chief Cabinet Secretary of Japan Nobutaka Machimura Says UFOs definitely exist. 

This is a cable from Japan that shows how the Chief Cabinet Secretary was unhappy with the governments official view rejecting the existence of UFOs. The document goes on to describe how he stated in a press conference that “I am sure that unidentified flying objects exist, otherwise it is impossible to explain the Nazca Lines (In Peru), isn’t it?”(source)

He also stated that ” the government has offered only a boilerplate response in its formal statement” regarding UFOs.

Tajik Mayor says there is life on other planets, and that peace and unity on Earth is necessary.

On January 13 Ambassador called on Dushanbe Mayor and Chairman of the upper house of Parliament Mahmadsaid Ubaidulloev at his parliamentary office. The Mayor began the meeting with a lengthy discourse on Afghanistan, thanking the United States for its contributions and sacrifices there, and saying that U.S. activities there were very important “as we enter the third millennium and the 21st century.” Ubaidulloev thought the main task there was to build a sense of national identity among ethnically disparate groups, and said the United States was an example for this. He noted that “war is very dangerous”, and said “we know there is life on other planets, but we must make peace here first.

In a platitude-ridden meeting, Dushanbe Mayor Mahmadsaid Ubaidulloev said upcoming elections would be free and fair, that contributions to the Roghun Dam were voluntary, and that the losses suffered by the United States in Afghanistan were felt by Tajiks as their own. Ubaidulloev asked for help in getting Tajik students admitted to Harvard University, but effectively declined to help find a new location for an American Corner in Dushanbe. He asserted the existence of life on other planets, caveating this by noting that we should focus on solving our problems on Earth. End Summary. (source)

Julian Assange has also said that that a UFO cult called the Raelians were of concern to the U.S. ambassador in Canada. It’s not surprising that the U.S. ambassador in Canada was concerned with this group. Government agencies have been concerned, harassing, monitoring and questioning extraterrestrial abductees and contacts for a number of years. They have been studying this subject for a very long time.

Like I said, Wikileaks seems to garnish a lot of attention, that’s why I chose to cover the topic, even though the documents are not as significant as ones that have already been released from dozens of governments, three letter agencies and more. Not to mention shocking statements from high ranking military and political personnel.  I linked an article in the first few paragraphs of this one that provides more examples of these, and below I am going to provide a brief excerpt from it to illustrate what I am talking about.

VERY BRIEF example of other information that’s already out there

Within the past few years, dozens of governments admitted to allocating resources and having programs to study the UFO phenomenon. For instance, in Canada the RCMP, Transport Canada and the Department of National Defence recently admitted to tracking UFOs and investigating them. (source) They’ve been doing it for years, accumulating thousands upon thousands of UFO related documents -many of which have since been officially released.

HERE is the latest batch of UFO files released from the United Kingdom.

Documents released by the National Security Agency (NSA) reveal what is recorded when a UFO is being tracked on radar. HERE is one example. HERE is a four page U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency and NSA report describing a particular encounter in great detail.

“As the F-4 approached a range of 25 nautical miles it lost all instrumentation and communications. When the F-4 turned away from the object and apparently was no longer a threat to it, the aircraft regained all instrumentation and communications. Another brightly lighted object came out of the original object. The second object headed straight toward the F4. ”

You can read more about the radar tracking of UFOs HERE. 

HERE is a Wikileak cable that describes how some politicians already know we are not alone in the universe. You can read more about that HERE.

Again the list goes on and on and thousands upon thousands of UFO related documents are now available in the public domain. For a summary of more documents that have been declassified and made available, a video done by UFO expert Richard Dolan does a great job at doing just that in 10 minutes.
