Awesome UFO Footage Of Disk Over Mexico City, Sept 28, 2018, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: September 28, 2018

Location of sighting: Mexico city, Mexico

Source: Live Cam

 

ColourUFO channel of Youtube recorded this outstanding footage of a disk over Mexico City on live Internet cam. The footage clearly shows the classic flying saucer hovering over the city. Lucky for us someone was recording while watching that cam and caught this mind-blowing footage. The UFOs in Mexico City probably come from Colima or Popocatepetl which are both known for UFOs entering and exiting them. I have often said that alien bases sit 4-6km below those to volcanos in Mexico City. 

 

Now I have followed ColourUFO for over five years. I can honestly say he puts in more hours per week than 99% of UFO researchers worldwide.

NASA and Skywatcher caught same Huge Object near the Sun

NASA’s Satellite EI 284 captured on Sep 30, 2018 01.06 AM a huge bright object that seemly leaves the Sun's surface.

On the evening of September 29, skywatcher Stefano Farigu in Italy was witnessing the sunset phase and started to photograph the Sun with a Nikon D800 camera.

Only after viewing the images Stefano noticed the presence of a bright unknown object near the Sun.

Image left: NASA images of the object -

Image right: Skywatcher images of the object.

Stefano talks about a celestial body, like the infamous planet X, Nibiru or planet Nine but since the images from NASA as well as from the skywatcher were taken within the same time frame we may assume that they have captured the same object (UFO?) near the sun.

'Bright white light chased by fighter jets' over Gloucester

The 'UFO' reportedly appeared to go over GCHQ

By Conor GogartySenior Digital Reporter

A man, who wished to remain anonymous and claims to be in the military, said: "It was a bright white light over Brockworth at 7.45pm today.

"It was too low to be any kind of satellite. It was not a drone. It was travelling as fast as a passenger jet.

"As it went over the skies of Brockworth, two fighter jets chased it. It came from the direction of Forest of Dean and went towards Andoversford.

"It appeared to then go near GCHQ in Cheltenham."

NASA’s uncrewed New Horizons probe flew past Pluto, its primary target, in 2015, but its mission is far from over. Soon it will continue on through the Kuiper Belt, and just after midnight on January 1, 2019, New Horizons will perform a flyby of Ultima Thule. The name may sound like a dragon spell from Skyrim or the name of a kindly Norwegian innkeeper, but it’s actually the common name of Kuiper Belt object KBO 2014 MU69, which floats out in space beyond the edges of our solar system. It’s among a class of objects believed to be cosmic leftovers from the early times of planetary formation billions of years ago.

In a live NASA Science Chat on Wednesday, three of the top New Horizons team members explained the plan for the 2019 flyby, which, at a billion miles beyond Pluto, will be the most distant planetary flyby in human history. Given this fact, KBO 2014 MU69’s name is especially fitting, as Ultima Thule is a medieval phrase that means “beyond the known world.” But New Horizons is going to make it part of our known world.

“We’re gonna zoom right up to it, image it, find out what it’s made of, find out if it has moons or rings, and lots more about it,” Alan Stern, the New Horizons principal investigator, told viewers.

What we do know about Ultima Thule is that it’s about 23 miles across and approximately 10 times the size of an average comet. We also know its trajectory, which makes it the perfect candidate for New Horizons’ secondary mission objective.

Despite its status as a secondary mission, though, the Ultima Thule flyby is taking a good deal of prep. When the Earth-based team woke the probe back up in June, they did system checks and performed system updates to support the flyby, Alice Bowman, the New Horizons mission operations manager, told viewers on Wednesday.

“In August, we transitioned the spacecraft into a mode where we could take pictures, so we are taking pictures now of Ultima Thule,” said Bowman. “We call those optical navigation measurements, and we are using those to target the object.” The image below is an example of one such optical navigation measurement.

By tracking Ultima Thule, which was only discovered in 2014, scientists have been able to identify it as a classical Kuiper Belt object, which means it’s likely one of the oldest objects in our solar system. But because it is a poorly understood object, scientists need to keep monitoring it to make sure it moves as they expect.

Researchers need to know exactly where Ultima Thule is to get as close as they want. The New Horizons team plans to fly the New Horizons probe 2,200 miles from Ultima Thule, much closer than the 7,800 miles that separated it from Pluto in 2015. Most importantly, though, the simple fact is that we know very little about Ultima Thule, and this flyby will give us some of the first facts about the ancient object.

“This has all the elements of an unbelievable set of discoveries that are justoutside our reach at the moment but will come into view soon,” Jim Green, NASA’s chief scientist, told viewers on Wednesday. “We know we’re gonna flyby January first, that’s a given. It has the excitement of what are we gonna see?”

Unfortunately, it’ll take quite some time before we find out what New Horizons sees. When the probe performs its epic flyby, it will begin sending its data back to Earth, but with the spacecraft sending a low-powered signal over 4 billion miles, the data won’t reach Earth for about a year. It’ll surely be worth the wait, though, to glimpse an object that may be even older than Earth.

In 10 Years, Windowless Planes Will Give Passengers A Panoramic View Of The Sky

From an unmanned submersible, protected by a casing of stainless steel almost an inch thick and a window made from super strong sapphire crystal, we can observe the life that thrives at our planet’s most extreme and darkest depths. Thanks to technology and sheer material strength, we can temporarily trespass into this high-pressure environment. But in stark contrast to the robust deep sea imaging equipment we rely on, the creatures our camera records look extremely fragile.

Four-and-a-half miles beneath our research vessel, which was floating on the surface of the Pacific Ocean, we captured footage of several previously undiscovered species of hadal snailfish. With delicate fins and transparent, gelatinous bodies, they are some of this environment’s most enigmatic inhabitants, fish that — at first glance — look like they should be incapable of surviving under such enormous pressures. And yet, it appears they are thriving in this strange world.

In spring, a team of 40 scientists from 17 different nations conducted an expedition to the Atacama Trench, which runs along the west coast of South America. We were there to find a particular snailfish.

On a previous expedition, our principal investigator (Alan Jamieson) had photographed a snailfish with long, wing-like fins at a depth of 7,000 meters. Only one species, Notoliparis antonbruuni was known to inhabit this area at such a depth. It had been described from a single specimen, so badly damaged that we are not able to use it to identify our images of living animals. We wanted to find this elusive winged snailfish again to learn more about it and observe it in its natural habitat.

These hadal snailfish tend to live at depths between 7,000 and 8,200 meters (“hadal” simply means anywhere below 6,000 meters), but their apparent rarity is perhaps misunderstood. Because of their extreme habitat (at least for humans), they are difficult to observe rather than actually “rare” as we know it. And with the right equipment and opportunity, we were confident, after 10 years of study, that we knew where and how to find them.

The Atacama Trench is part of the Peru-Chile subduction zone, a large 590,000 square kilometer area where one tectonic plate is being forced under another and the ocean floor quickly plunges to more than 8,000 meters. Its volume is almost the same as the neighboring Andes mountain range, which the tectonic subduction zone also creates, and exploring it is no easy feat.

A Trio of Snailfish

We deployed our freefalling cameras 27 times — from the relative shallows at 2,500 meters to the trench’s deepest point, Richard’s Deep, at just over 8,000 meters. This enabled us to take more than 100 hours of video and 11,000 photographs at the seabed — and the results did not disappoint. The snailfish we were looking for made an appearance — and it wasn’t alone. Two other previously unknown hadal snailfish species were present in the footage. In fact, all three species appeared in the same shot on one occasion. Out of necessity, they were given quick, stand-in names: we called them the “purple”, the “pink,” and the “blue” Atacama snailfishes.

The “blue” appeared to be the “winged” species Jamieson had recorded previously. Its long trailing fins and prominent snout resembled the Ethereal snailfish we had recorded on another expedition to the Mariana Trench, far away on the other side of the Pacific.

The “pink” species, meanwhile, was more robust and was closer in appearance to the Mariana snailfish (Pseudoliparis swirei) that we described in 2017 and which also inhabits the Mariana Trench. To see these two species — with such different body plans — sharing a trench again got us thinking: they must be doing something different to one another down there to both carve themselves a niche.

The third species, a small purple fish, looked more like the snailfish we would expect to see on the shallower abyssal plains — at a depth of around 3,500 meters. But one of these purple snailfish, just 9cm long, followed its invertebrate prey into one of our traps. This small fragile fish is currently the only physical specimen of the new species and should eventually allow us to give it a formal scientific name. And while we much prefer our video of the living animal, only a physical specimen can be deposited in a museum and used to formally describe a new species.

Preservation

Once on the surface, we photographed this specimen while it was suspended in chilled seawater — its body is simply too fragile to support itself in air, and we didn’t want it to suffer the same fate as the poor blobfish, which, for the record, really aren’t that sad-looking (their jelly-like bodies just collapse when exposed at the surface).

Over the following months, we then put the specimen through several stages of preservation to avoid shrinking its largely gelatinous body. So that scientists (and the interested public) don’t have to fight over access to a single, fragile specimen, it was also CT scanned at the Natural History Museum, London, creating a detailed 3D digital model of it, inside and out. Such digital back ups are gaining traction in science – take the Scan All Fishes project, for example. And disasters like the recent fire at Brazil’s National Museum, which will have wiped out many unique specimens, also show why they are so important.

But what have we discovered about these mysterious creatures? First, as fish approach the absolute extremes of the environmental conditions that they can cope with, they do not simply eke out an existence but thrive. It is also emerging that some trenches support not only a single specialist species but multiple species with body plans that hint at different lifestyles within the trench.

Second, the snailfish family (Liparidae) is not only the absolute winner of the deepest fish award (having been found in multiple other trenches), but species are living in trenches that at times are over 10,000km apart and entirely isolated from one another. Incredibly, snailfish exist at these extreme depths, wherever these extreme depths are, and in numbers never thought possible.

And the snailfish is just one story that emerged from our expedition. Over the coming months, we will continue to process the huge amount of data we collected, the most we have ever gathered on a single voyage. Our assessment of the large mobile animals we filmed will feed into the project’s larger goal to understand the biological and chemical processes within the trench as a whole.

Strange Blobs Beneath Earth Could Be Remnants of an Ancient Magma Ocean

Key ingredient for life on Earth may have come from outer space

 BY TIBI PUIU

Phosphates, essential ingredients for DNA-based life forms, may have originated from space, according to a new study that recreated the formation of the molecules in a laboratory setting. The life-seeding phosphates would have then made their way to Earth through asteroids and comets that impacted the planet billions of years ago.

Phosphate compounds may have arrived on Earth delivered by comets, such as comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko.

Credit: ESA/Rosetta/NAVCAM.

Without phosphates and diphosporic acid, living things wouldn’t be able to synthesize DNA. They are the main components of chromosomes, thread-like structures in which the DNA is packaged. Phosphorus is also part of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which stores energy in the cell and powers cellular processes. Bones and teeth are also made up of phosphorus.

A long-standing debate among scientists is whether these chemical compounds were forged on Earth or someplace else in the universe, hitching a ride on cosmic bodies that collided with our planet.

Although the debate sounds impossible to solve, researchers at the University of Hawaii at Manatoa have now offered compelling evidence that phosphates can be generated in space.

For their experiment, the researchers worked with the chemical phosphine, which is derived from phosphorus and can be found in the atmospheres of planets such as Jupiter or Saturn, but also those of comets such as the famous 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, explored by the Rosetta spacecraft in 2016.

First, the team recreated icy grains — the kind typically found in interstellar space — in a vacuum chamber where the temperature sat  just 5 degrees Kelvin above absolute zero (-450°F/-267.7°C). Then, they added water, carbon dioxide and — very carefully because it is highly toxic — phosphine. Finally, the researchers fired ionized radiation — the kind found in cosmic rays — at this, triggering chemical reactions that formed phosphoric acid and diphosphoric acid.

“On Earth, phosphine is lethal to living beings,” said Andrew Turner, lead author of the study in Nature Communications, in a statement. “But in the interstellar medium, an exotic phosphine chemistry can promote rare chemical reaction pathways to initiate the formation of biorelevant molecules such as oxoacids of phosphorus, which eventually might spark the molecular evolution of life as we know it.”

In deep space, it’s reasonable to assume such nanoparticles became embedded in large objects like asteroids and comets, which would have eventually made their way to Earth.

“Since comets contain at least partially the remnants of the material of the protoplanetary disk that formed our solar system, these compounds might be traced back to the interstellar medium wherever sufficient phosphine in interstellar ices is available,” said Cornelia Meinert of the University of Nice.

The findings appeared in the journal Nature Communications.

Tf that wasn't awe-inspiring enough, JAXA has just released not only more images, but even a small video from Ryugu's surface, and all their footage is mind-meltingly wonderful.

Here's what it looks like to be standing on a rocky, rugged asteroid, hurtling through space 100 million miles (160 million km) from Earth, as the Sun's light beams and flares around you.

We have no words.

The two rovers, Rover 1A and Rover 1B, were launched onto Ryugu's surface on September 21 by their 'mothership' Hayabusa2, which had journeyed three and a half years before finally make it to the asteroid in June.

The rovers weight around 1 kg and are pretty much the size and shape of a cookie tin. They move about the asteroid's low-gravity environment by hopping, fuelled by a solar-powered internal mass that rotates to generate force.

(JAXA)

Twitter user Transferrins created this incredible stop-motion animation of the rover's landing on the asteroid, which shows just how nail-biting that journey was.

These new videos and images show in detail Ryugu's rugged, boulder-covered landscape, and it's the closest look we've had to date at this kind of Solar System object.

Ryugu is 900 metres (2,952 feet) wide and is thought to be a particularly ancient type of asteroid known as a C-type asteroid, dating back to the early days of our Solar System more than 4 billion years ago.

(JAXA)

Researchers hope that by studying it, we could learn more about the evolution of Earth.

As well as taking these breathtaking images and videos, the rovers will be measuring temperatures across the surface of the asteroid, and will also eventually collect underground material.

Ryugu is thought to contain water, which is why it's named after a magical palace at the bottom of the sea; this mission will tell us more about the object's composition.

(JAXA)

"I cannot find words to express how happy I am," said project manager Yuichi Tsuda when the rovers' safe arrival was confirmed earlier in the week.

"By studying asteroids, we learn more about the early Solar System and more about life itself," the 'Science Guy' and Planetary Society CEO Bill Nye tweeted as the rovers made their descent Friday.

"It is amazing to be a human living at this moment in the history of space exploration."

Despite all warnings that it’s probably a horrifically bad idea, NASA seems to be pushing full steam ahead on the search for alien civilizations. At a workshop in Houston, Texas, this week,  NASA explored developments and possible investment in the search for “technosignatures” of alien life. Technosignatures refer to to any bi-product of civilization that we may be able to detect, such as radio waves like the unexplained  fast burst emissions detected coming from deep space. Other technosignatures could include polluted atmospheres, laser emissions, and artificial structures.

The NASA Technosignatures Workshop looks like it was the real deal. It ran from September 26 through September 28 at the Lunar and Planetary Institute in Houston. In person attendance was invitation only and limited to 50 people. The three days consisted of almost 9 hours of back to back talks exploring the current state of the search for alien life and the prospects and predictions moving forward. Organized by NASA scientists in collaboration with scientists from a variety of American universities, it shows that, at the very least, these 50 people are taking the search for not just alien life, butadvanced alien civilizations seriously. Here are the four goals of the workshop, according to the website:

1. Define the current state of the technosignature field. What experiments have occurred? What is the state-of-the-art for technosignature detection? What limits do we currently have on technosignatures?

2. Understand the advances coming near-term in the technosignature field. What assets are in place that can be applied to the search for technosignatures? What planned and funded projects will advance the state-of-the-art in future years, and what is the nature of that advancement?

3. Understand the future potential of the technosignature field. What new surveys, new instruments, technology development, new data-mining algorithms, new theory and modeling, etc., would be important for future advances in the field?

4. What role can NASA partnerships with the private sector and philanthropic organizations play in advancing our understanding of the technosignatures field?

Throughout the three days, presentations addressed topics like “Technosignatures in the context of planetary evolution,” “Future prospects and data mining for structures in transit”, and “Future Projects.” Also listed in the schedule was the ominous sounding daily “Feedback From HQ.”  Then again, these scientists wouldn’t have gotten into this field if they didn’t harbor a secret desire to play secret agent.

Pictured: HQ, probably.

The workshop ended on Friday with  attendees broken up into groups to discuss and compile responses on three subjects: existing upper limits of our ability to detect alien technosignatures, new initiatives and partnerships, and emerging and future opportunities.

The mentions of private investment and partnering with philanthropic groups are interesting, and while alien research isn’t known as the most lucrative field, it makes sense. What better legacy for a billionaire to buy than first contact with an alien species? If it takes the vanity of a few super wealthy people to expand our understanding of the stars, so be it.

It always comes as a surprise to learn that there are subsets within the scientific communities actually taking the search for alien life seriously. The fact that there was a three day invitation only workshop on the subject shows that top scientists do believe in the possibility of advanced alien civilizations. Although, there still seems to be an assumption that alien civilizations would resemble ours. Just because we love polluting or atmosphere doesn’t necessarily mean aliens would. We really don’t have a frame of reference on what an alien intelligence might look like. Maybe there’s only one alien and it’s a floating ball of hyper-intelligent ooze, we just don’t know.

This is really just the beginning of our exploration into the unknown of space though, and however wise it is to go looking for a species that very well may want to eat us, we seem to be ramping up the search. Only time will tell what we’ll find.

Real-life UFO spotted? Bizarre 'blue flying object' caught on camera over London

A QUICK-THINKING cameraman caught a very strange object flying in the skies above London, fuelling rumours of alien life. 

By Warren Muggleton

In the clip, the cameraman is looking at a cloudy sky with a large tree in the foreground. 

But there is something hovering above it. 

As the camera zooms in, it appears to be a blue triangular object with silver ends. 

The bizarre incident took place last weekend in London.

Six UFOs Seen Over Caloundra, Australia On Sept 28, 2018, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: Sept 28, 2018
Location of sighting: Caloundra, Australia
Source: Twitter report  https://twitter.com/UFO_Sightings_X

Here is a UFO video sent into me on my Twitter account. A person witnessed six or more glowing UFOs flying over their city in Australia on Sept 28th. The UFO video was great, however I did need to add a bit of light and contrast to make the UFOs more visible...as I explained in the video below. Australia is famous for its UFO sightings and the city of Caloundra is on the ocean, so most likely these UFOs came from an underwater alien base not far off shore.
