“Preuve absolue” d’un OVNI ? Des orbes triangulaires repérés au-dessus de Mexico suscitent un débat sur la vie des extraterrestres

Des orbes triangulaires ÉTRANGES repérés au-dessus de Mexico ont été qualifiés de “preuve absolue” de la vie extraterrestre, car beaucoup pensent qu’un OVNI a été repéré.

Dans le clip, un orbe blanc peut être vu dans le ciel nocturne.

Mais il semble se déplacer vers la gauche quand la caméra ralentit.

Et l’objet semble s’accélérer avant de disparaître vers la droite.

Un plan au ralenti est ensuite présenté, ce qui donne à l’orbe un bouclier triangulaire.

Le commentateur dit : “On dirait un gros OVNI triangulaire volant dans le nuage.”

Une autre photo est ensuite montrée à l’endroit où un éclair a frappé.

Lorsque la séquence est à nouveau ralentie, un très petit objet peut alors être vu s’éloigner.

Ce clip a été tourné à Mexico dimanche.

Il a été téléchargé sur YouTube par la chaîne australienne UFO channel colourufo mais elle a été reprise par le chercheur extraterrestre Scott C. Waring.

Et ces images l’ont amené à revendiquer une forme de vie extraterrestre.

M. Waring a écrit sur son site Web UFO Sightings Daily : “ColourUFO a repéré un OVNI triangulaire étonnant qui est à à moitié occulté et se déplace à travers les nuages.”

“J’ai entendu parler des nuages pyramidaux, mais très peu de rapports légitimes arrivent comme celui-là.”

“Comme vous le voyez, la caméra prend une photo toutes les quelques secondes, il y a donc un saut entre les deux, mais l’OVNI est vu dans de nombreux plans fixes.

“[La] Preuve absolue que les aliens sont actifs au Mexique.”

Ce n’est pas la première fois que l’activité paranormale fait les manchettes récemment.

Selon des déclarations scandaleuses en ligne, la NASA aurait envoyé un engin spatial habité sur Mars dans le cadre d’une mission top-secrète en 1973.

Alors qu’un observateur du ciel britannique pensait avoir repéré un OVNI survolant la lune.

Ice spikes on Europa could be threatening for future missions

BY MIHAI ANDREI

Blades of ice rising from the surface of Europa, Jupiter’s frozen moon, will likely pose major hazards for future space missions aiming to land on the satellite.

Water and ice

When it comes to space exploration, few things are as exciting as Europa. Sure, the Earth’s moon or Mars spark our imagination, but Europa is much more likely to host life — beneath its frozen surface.

Slightly smaller than Earth’s Moon, Europa is primarily made of silicate rock, but because it’s so far away from the Sun, its surface is completely frozen. Initially, astronomers didn’t give much attention to it, but the Galileo mission (launched in 1989) showed that there’s much more to Europa than meets the eye.

Current models now show that heat from tidal flexing causes the subsurface to stay liquid, enabling the Jovian moon to host an ocean of liquid water, right beneath its surface. Since liquid water is crucial for life as we know it, this makes Europa a prime candidate — and to make things even better, astronomers provided strong evidence of water plume activity on Europa, suggesting that the ocean is interacting with the seafloor, having tectonic-like activity. All of this makes Europa a prime candidate for searching extraterrestrial life.

But if we want to really see if there’s life on Europa, we need to send a lander mission there, and that’s not gonna be easy. A new paper published today in Nature Geoscience suggests that Europa’s jagged surface will make any landing mission even more difficult due to a phenomenon that’s also present on Earth: the so-called penitentes.

Penitentes

Penitentes in Aconcagua.

The penitentes were formally described by Charles Darwin in 1839: giant, blade-like ice features in the Andes mountains. When the weather is very dry and cold, the sun’s warm rays can cause parts of the ice and snow to undergo sublimation (turn from ice into vapour, without first becoming liquid).

“On Earth, the sublimation of massive ice deposits at equatorial latitudes under cold and dry conditions in the absence of any liquid melt leads to the formation of spiked and bladed textures eroded into the surface of the ice. These sublimation-sculpted blades are known as penitentes,” researchers write in the study.

A similar process has been observed on Pluto, for instance, so we know that it can happen on extraterrestrial bodies. Daniel Hobley of Cardiff University and his team investigated the conditions that could give rise to Penitentes on icy worlds such as Europa.

In a study released Monday, scientists say they've found evidence of huge, jagged "ice spikes," some 50 feet tall, on the moon's surface.

They found that conditions on Europa favour the development of penitentes, particularly at latitudes below 23°, which in turn, could threaten potential future missions.

“Although available images of Europa have insufficient resolution to detect surface roughness at the multi-metre scale, radar and thermal data are consistent with our interpretation. We suggest that penit }entes could pose a hazard to a future lander on Europa,” the study concludes.

Both NASA and ESA have Europa flyby missions scheduled for the 2020s.

PANIEK BIJ NASA OVER YELLOWSTONE VULKAAN

NASA observeert nauwgezet de activiteiten van de bekende Yellowstone vulkaan omdat er behoorlijk wat ongewone dingen gebeuren. 

Nu plotsklaps komen wetenschappers van NASA met een plan om hitte vanuit de vulkaan af te voeren, maar als het mislukt is er grote kans dat deze juist zal uitbarsten. 

In juni dit jaar schreven wij het volgende over de bekende Yellowstone supervulkaan in Amerika:

UFO UIT MINNESOTA OOK IN NEDERLAND  GESIGNALEERD ( UPDATE + VIDEO )

Onlangs publiceerden wij een artikel waar op drie verschillende tijdstippen in de Amerikaanse staat Minnesota een groot cirkelvormig object met talloze lichten werd waargenomen door getuigen. 

Het ziet er onmiskenbaar uit als een (buitenaards) ruimteschip en naar nu blijkt, is hetzelfde soort schip ook al eerder in Nederland gesignaleerd. 

Het gaat om drie onafhankelijke waarnemingen in de Amerikaanse staat Minnesota van een behoorlijk groot cirkelvormig object dat er als volgt uit zag:

Naar aanleiding van ons artikel, ontvingen wij de volgende mail(dank!): 

This evening while looking at your site I saw “Ruimteschip hangt vier minuten boven weg Update” 

This gave me the goosebumps! This is exacly what my X wife and myself saw in 1996 From Oeffelt To Our House In Boekel, I didn’t have a camera with me so I didn’t take a picture but now I see it and thank you for that. 

Back then I shared my experience with a few sites here is the article. 

Op die website staat inderdaad het hele verhaal wat er die zomeravond in juni 1996 gebeurde tijdens een autorit van Oeffelt naar Boekel, een afstand van zo’n 26 kilometer. 

De man in kwestie was samen met zijn toenmalige vriendin op bezoek geweest bij vrienden die in een vrij afgelegen boerderij in de buurt van Oeffelt woonden. 

Hij kan zich die avond van 22 juni 1996 nog goed herinneren, want dat was de avond dat Nederland tegen Frankrijk speelde voor de wereldkampioenschappen. 

Rond middernacht vertrekt het stel omdat de volgende dag een werkdag was en ze een beetje op tijd in bed moesten liggen. Het eerste wat de man ziet is een rond object met vele lichten dat rondcirkelt boven de boerderij waar ze op bezoek waren. Het was identiek aan die die nu wordt waargenomen in Minnesota. 

Het was een kilometer of 7 richting snelweg vanaf de boerderij en de weg was verlaten en liep door een vrijwel onbebouwd gebied. De vriendin kon vanuit de auto zien dat het object hen volgde rechts van de auto en exact dezelfde snelheid aan hield. Toen de man gas gaf accelereerde de UFO ook en toen hij een bocht naar rechts maakte volgde de UFO. 

De man werd een beetje overmoedig, stopte de auto en stapte uit om beter te kunnen kijken. Het object draaide rond tegen de richting van de wijzers van de klok in en stopte boven een huis aan de rechterkant van de weg. Toen begon het met de richting van de wijzers van een klok mee te draaien en bewoog zich richting auto en de man had het gevoel alsof het object met hem communiceerde. Hij schat de grootte ervan op enkele voetbalvelden, geen kleintje dus. Bovendien maakte het geen geluid. Het vloog enkele keren over de auto en tenslotte stapte de man weer in. 

Omdat ze op een gegeven moment onder een bladerdak van bomen reden dachten ze het object kwijt te zijn, maar niets was minder waar. Een minuut later was het weer terug aan de passagierskant van de auto. De vrouw vroeg hem om sneller te gaan rijden en de auto zo snel mogelijk thuis de garage in te rijden, hetgeen geschiedde. 

Thuis gekomen was de man toch weer nieuwsgierig geworden, liep naar buiten en zag het object hangen boven het huis van de buren. Omdat het object nu heel dichtbij was en onder een bepaalde hoek hing, had de man heel sterk het gevoel dat ze naar hem keken. De man riep naar zijn vriendin en de babysitter om snel naar buiten te komen en toen ze dat deden schoot het object weg met hoge snelheid. Het verdween van het ene op het andere moment, zonder enig geluid te maken. 

De man was een voormalig sergeant bij de luchtmacht en is daardoor wel goed in staat om onderscheid te maken tussen bijvoorbeeld een helikopter en een onbekend object. 

Even later kwam het object nogmaals terug en werd toen ook gezien door de babysitter en de buurman die net zelf terugkwam van een feestje. Uiteindelijk verdween het object opnieuw en ze hebben het daarna nooit meer gezien. Wel bleek later dat er die avond veel UFO meldingen waren geweest in dat gebied. 

Tot zover het verhaal. 

Het mooie van dit verhaal is wel dat hiermee eigenlijk wordt uitgesloten dat het waargenomen object een drone is. Simpelweg omdat die in 1996 nog niet voor kwamen. 

Wij hopen dat door het lezen van dit verhaal misschien meer mensen zich iets herinneren, hetzij van die avond of een andere gelegenheid waarbij ze ook dit bepaalde type UFO hebben gezien.

UFO Creates Spiral Contrail Over Moorpark CA, USA, Video, October 7, 2018 UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: Oct 7, 2018
Location of sighting: Moorpark, California, USA
Source: MUFON #95416

Here is a very strange UFO as it creates spirals of smoky trail behind it. The trails start high up, not from the ground so we know its not a rocket. This UFO is hard to see at the tip of the trail, but the trail sure makes it obvious that its there. Wow! I would have loved to see that one in person. 
Scott C. Waring

Eyewitness states:

I was walking up the street with my dogs when I felt my head want to turn left. I looked up and saw 2 bright lights of different sizes facing each other. White cloud looking objects around them and various colors of pink and green below. The biggest bright light was moving backward, and the smaller light was opening and closing. It was extremely bright. A couple people stopped their car to look as well. My dogs were pulling at me and another woman walking her dogs was trying to manhandle her dogs who were acting up- all while we stared into the sky. None of us said anything to each other, which I thought later was strange. The brightest light did not waver, just kept moving backward- but the smaller light that would open and close started to fade along with the colors and not-clouds.

Then, I saw a bright orange ball what looked to be the size of a basketball (to my eye) drop out of where the smaller light had been and start to drop to the ground. I ran up to try and see where it went but, I missed it. I did not hear any sound during the event, but one of my videos recorded a super strange sound. I have photos and video, which really does not show how bright and intense it was. I felt like I had to watch this, but then started to feel frightened, so I went inside after the orange ball dropped.

White Glowing UFOs Sighted Over Lansing, Illinois October 1, 2018 Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: Oct 1, 2018
Location of sighting: Lansing, Illinois, USA

Over a fishing village in Japan several glowing lights maneuvered around catching the attention of local residents. Because of their high speed seen by witnesses, we know they are not man made objects. Also they are near the ocean and these UFOs may have come from an underwater alien base not far away. 
Scott C. Waring-Taiwan

Eyewitness states: 

The location is Izumisawa fishing port in Kikonai-cho, Hokkaido Japan. It is the original image of the in-vehicle camera when I went fishing. A semitransparent object appeared at the super high speed from behind the trees on the right side, half turned clockwise around the side of the street pole, stopped at the rear trees stand still, moved rapidly to the upper right with the momentum I will. Immediately after the object on the right side stands at the top of the trees, something flickers from the upper side of the black wig boxer on the left side, something will appear, and if you look at the image often, some shadow of the object is reflected on the top of the wappokuka .

When I saw the picture, I was watching whether insects or someone was doing kite flying, but I have not seen such a person, and I can not confirm the insect on the windowpane of the car It is. The object that appeared from the top of the one box car was confirmed to move instantaneously afterwards and change direction and go up to the sky where the clouds are bright. I also caught the science fiction movie 's spaceship fading away. It was a movie far beyond imagination that can not be imagined on the earth.　OMG!!

Photographer Shane Winter captured a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket over the Old Bank District of downtown Los Angeles on Sunday, October 7, 2018, just after the 7:21 p.m. launch from Vandenberg Air Force Base.

Winter tells Inverse he used a Panasonic GH4 camera atop a tripod on his roof in LA. First he set the camera’s built-in intervalometer to capture 600 frames per second. He then framed up the shot, set the exposure, focus, and white balance. Then it was time for the launch, which you see above.

“I tend to process through [auto exposure] as it’ll handle the [raw image format] sequence and gives me options for color over time and movement that I don’t get through image editors; the ‘camera move’ is framing shift done there,” he explains.

The result is a stunner. A version of the animation had received more than 51,000 upvotes on reddit on Monday. The most-upvoted comment? “If I had no clue that was happening and saw it in the sky I would be freaking out,” observed one redditor.

The SAOCOM 1 mission by SpaceX put two satellites into orbit for Argentina’s Space Agency, and the pair will primarily gather data about soil moisture information, according to a mission briefing released by SpaceX.

This was the first mission to utilize SpaceX’s new landing pad. The pad was under construction for around four years, with a slow process in part because the company didn’t need the pad before now. It’s the first one SpaceX has built on the west coast, and it will complement the droneship Just Read the Instructions for landing first stage boosters after missions from the Vandenberg Air Force Base. While it’s easier to collect rockets when they return to land, such landings require more fuel than sea-based missions, meaning SpaceX will likely choose the right tool for the mission depending on the circumstances.

UFO technology: Has US military built space ship to travel the universe?

A MYSTERIOUS craft has been spotted near a US military base which has led some to believe a high tech spaceship could be involved in the new age space race.

This month, the two major online sites for reporting UFOs – the National UFO Reporting Center and the Mutual UFO Network – both documented steep drops in worldwide sightings. The declines started around 2014, when reports were at a peak. They have since reduced drastically to 55% of that year’s combined total, many UFO interest groups have folded, and numerous previously classified government documents have been disclosed.

Do these declines reveal that UFO interest is becoming a blip on the human cultural radar? Perhaps UFO and alien lore is seeming more like a reflection of human culture, tied to the space age, motivated by conquering new existential frontiers.

It might not be a coincidence that the term UFO (unidentified flying object) and some of the phenomena that surrounds it – abductions and impossible technologies – are relatively recent. Before the 1940s, reports of sightings of objects in the sky were extremely rare. Centuries of recorded history give no clear indication of any such activity. Then, at the predawn of the space-age, around the time of the Roswell conspiracy, UFO culture was born, giving rise to everything from Space Invaders to The X-Files.

Possible answers as to why sightings are decreasing are varied. A key factor, however, may be that more people simply don’t care any more. As we are accustomed to being inundated with wild claims churned out by politicians, media and advertisers, the next report of a UFO is no more believed than the long-range weather forecast.

Before home video, photographs were the staple of UFO evidence. Video evidence, during the height of the 1990s UFO mania, was regarded by many as even more substantial. Amateur footage of glowing objects in the sky, as mysterious as they seemed real, made the cut for appearing on television – they were meant to be taken seriously and they fed an audience hungry for amazement, helped by a healthy dose of conspiracy theorising.

According to the cultural historian Stuart Walton, “Belief in UFOs is definitely in a state of decline, along with much else that could be classed as paranormal. Part of the reason is that the technology for providing documentary evidence of such matters is now widely available to everybody with a smartphone, and such purported evidence as there is on YouTube looks extremely threadbare.”

He adds: “It isn't so much that belief can exist without proof; it's that it must emphatically avoid proof to remain belief. We are in the process, paradoxically, of proving a negative hypothesis with UFOs: there never was any such thing.”

Indeed, indisputable evidence of intelligent life coming to Earth could be the greatest news of all time. Yet, after thousands of anecdotal, photo, and video reports have accrued over decades, what are we to conclude? With the greatest balance of scepticism and “wanting to believe”, all that can confidently be asserted is that some objects, appearing in the sky on film or video, seem unidentifiable.

Furthermore, government disclosure of its own video footage isn’t helping to maintain belief. Joseph Baker, sociology professor at Tennessee State University, says: “It’s actually better for UFOs when ufologists can claim that ‘the powers that be know everything and are hiding it from us’ rather than seeing that the government appears to have basically the same info about UFOs as the public: namely grainy, inconclusive visual evidence.”

Perhaps though, the declines in reported sightings may signify only an end to current trends in ufology. After all, from the 1940s aliens were originally characterised as saviours who could help humans transcend the cold-war paranoia of nuclear annihilation; especially marked at the time, after two world wars. But after events like Watergate and the Vietnam war fuelled distrust in government, UFOs came to be viewed more as a possible threat, and some came to believe their existence was verified in secret military documents.

• Sharon Hill, a researcher on the paranormal and pseudoscience, says: “The ideas about UFOs and aliens continue to evolve as we project our social and cultural ideas on them. Since we have no single easy explanation for all these claims regarding the decline in sightings, the future vision of ufology seems rather open-ended. I don't think it's dead, just changing.”

5 eerie 'UFO sightings' that sparked rumors of alien life

By Jennifer Earl | Fox News

 

Odd-looking aircraft or lights hovering high in the sky at various times across the U.S. have prompted questions from space enthusiasts: if it's not a bird, plane or even Superman — then what is it? UFO sightings have soared in recent years, leading many to believe it's a sign of alien life.

Reports of UFOs have become so common lately people are starting to bet on when you're most likely to spot on next. Casino.org, an independent provider of online casino reviews and information, tracks the odds on its website. It even includes a history of mysterious spacecraft dating back to 1440 BC.

California alone has reported more than 23,400 UFO sightings since 1940, though the odds of seeing a strange flying object are highest in Wyoming and Vermont.

• 'UFO SPOTTED' OVER MYRTLE BEACH, DISTURBING ONLOOKERS

Whether you live in a state ripe for alien-like space vehicles or not, people who spot questionable objects in the sky are going to snap a picture or take a video — and there's a good chance the content will go viral. Here's a look at some bizarre "UFO sightings" that have spread online in recent years.

1. Myrtle Beach, S.C.

A photographer who was putting together a time-lapse video of a thunderstorm in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, in August was shocked to discover mysterious lights hovering over the pier in the footage.

The video, which was first shared with UFO Stalker — a UFO-centric website, was posted to YouTube a month later with a caption that declared a "massive spaceship" was flying over the beach.

“I was taking the pictures off the edge of a long pier after dark, so there were no reflective surfaces around. I did not notice the objects until [I] returned home and checked the photograph and video,” the photographer, who has not yet been identified, wrote on the UFO sighting website.

2. Lake Norman, N.C.

A very shaky video of what many dubbed a UFO flying over Lake Norman in North Carolina went viral in late May.

"I was at work 2018 10:30 a.m it had been raining all morning. Rain finally stopped so we went w pick up a boat from [L]ake [N]orman.. When came around the corner I saw this thing sitting still very close," Jason Swing, who posted the video on YouTube on May 29, captioned the minute-long footage.

Critics questioned whether the curious flying object was simply a large drone or a blimp — with some noting a Goodyear Blimp was spotted in the sky following a NASCAR race.

The manufacturing company later confirmed they were the culprit.

"We don’t want to get in the way of a good story, but that’s definitely us," the Goodyear Blimp account wrote, according to the Daily Mail. "We left the Charlotte area 5/29 after covering the Coke 600."

3. Blue Hills Reservation, Mass.

UFO hunters got stranded for hours in the Blue Hills in Massachusetts in June 2017 after going out for a UFO-finding mission. The group of three was found several hours later, and they didn't come back empty handed.

Ramona DiFrancesco, a member of the group, told The Singular Fortean Society they spotted several UFOs while lost on the hills.

"We saw a couple. We saw some we've never seen before. We saw this one light, well, we saw these two ships that had these bright spotlights, and then we saw this weird orb thing that was like a spotlight sort of," DiFrancesco, then 18, told the paranormal organization.

The teen later showed a local news station a picture of the glowing object she captured.

4. International Space Station

A disc-shaped ray of light could be seen disappearing into space in a video uploaded by UFO conspiracy theorist Tyler Glockner in May 2017.

Glockner claimed in a video the mysterious burst of light was a UFO racing past the International Space Station "at a very high rate of speed," adding it was "as if it knew the camera was watching."

At the time, NASA didn't directly address Glockner's video but clarified the object was likely a "distortion in a lens" and did not signify the presence of extraterrestrial life.

5. Dayton, Ohio

A 13-minute YouTube video sparked rumors of alien life outside of a military base in Dayton, Ohio, back in May 2016.

A mysterious flying object was seen peeking out of the clouds near Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.

A couple who live near the base captured what they declared was a UFO from their home. The video clip eventually landed in the hands of the aforementioned Glockner, who called the sighting "mind-blowing."

"There is no doubt in my mind this is either an alien craft or a very very strange drone - which I highly doubt," he told the Mirror. "[It could also be] a back-engineered alien craft that's being tested by some black project over at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base."

Hovering lights above Myrtle Beach spark UFO theories

Mysterious lights were spotted above Myrtle Beach, SC, in August, raising questions about what the lights were and where they came from.

“UFOs over Myrtle Beach? Video catches mysterious lights over resort town,” reported The State, Columbia’s local newspaper, noting that the video was also posted to UFO Stalker, a UFO-centric website.

The video has also been uploaded to YouTube, with the description noting “A [massive] ‘spaceship’ was spotted apparently hovering over a beach during a thunderstorm.”

The person who submitted the video to MUFON said they were taking pictures and a time-lapse video of the thunderstorm and did not notice the strange lights until they got home.

“Taking pictures and time-lapse of the incoming storm,” the person wrote on the website. “[I] was taking the pictures off the edge of a long pier after dark, so there were no reflective surfaces around. [I] did not notice the objects until I returned home and checked the photograph and video.”

The video was taken on Aug. 5 but was only uploaded to the website on Oct. 4, 59 days later.

UFOs over Myrtle Beach? Video catches mysterious lights over resort town

BY CHARLES DUNCAN

cduncan@mcclatchy.com

A time-lapse video taken from a pier in Myrtle Beach appears to show mysterious lights hovering above Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

The video, posted to the Mutual UFO Network website, appears to show a series of lights hovering in the night sky over the resort town.

The person who submitted the video to the UFO sighting website said they were taking pictures and a time lapse of a thunderstorm from a pier. “I was taking the pictures off the edge of a long pier after dark, so there were no reflective surfaces around. I did not notice the objects until i returned home and checked the photograph and video,” the person wrote.

The video was posted on the UFO Stalker website late last week, but the person said they shot the time-lapse on Aug. 5.

• YouTube user UFO Zone also published the video, calling the signing a “massive spaceship.”

The video of lights apparently hovering over Myrtle Beach isn’t the only space-related mystery in South Carolina recently.

This item washed ashore on an island near Charleston, South Carolina. What is it?

Lowcountry Marine Mammal Network

Last week a “mysterious object” washed ashore on Seabrook Island, about 24 miles south of Charleston.

The Lowcounty Marine Mammal Network posted photos of the object on its Facebook page Thursday. The organization said it looked like concrete but actually felt like “a soft foam,”

In June an apparent UFO sighting off Myrtle Beach drew some media attention after people saw bright orbs in the sky off the beach.

The U.S. Army and Myrtle Beach festival organizers chimed in quickly after those reports. It turned out, Sun Fun Festival organizers told The Sun News, the U.S. Army’s Golden Knights parachute team was doing its annual “pyro jump.”

The Army team parachuted from above Myrtle Beach with lights and landed on the beach in the middle of town, festival organizers said.

Kent's X-Files exposed: Government documents reveal all the UFOs sighted in the last 20 years

If alien life does exist, has it ever paid us a visit?

By Katie Boyden -Multimedia Reporter/ Gabriel Shepard - Senior Audience Content Editor

THIS IS THE CORRELATION BETWEEN TOAD ROCK AND ALIENS

The existence of little green men and extra-terrestrial life is a hotly debated topic, and science has yet to provide a concrete answer as to whether the residents of planet Earth are alone in the galaxy.

And if alien life does exist, has it ever paid us a visit?

UFOs - or Unidentified Flying Objects - have been mentioned in the UK since the 1950s, investigated by the Air Ministry which was then replaced by the Ministry of Defence.

The UK Government has never taken part in any long term monitoring of reports, and the MoD works on the assumption that almost every UFO report has a natural, human, explanation.

The British UFO Research Association (BUFORA) was formed in 1962 to document, and try to explain, sightings up and down the country.

They believe that every report made can be caused by the following sources:

• 40 per cent of reports are actually aircraft,
• 33 per cent of reports are actually stars and planets spotted in the sky,
• 10 per cent of reports are satellites and meteors entering the atmosphere,
• 8 per cent are described as being caused by 'other' causes, like birds, solar flares and clouds,
• 5 per cent of reports are actually weather or research balloons,
• 2 per cent are hoax reports,
• 2 per cent are chalked up as being hallucinations.

What happened to the last Kent Ufologist?

'Ufologist' is the title given to a person who studies reports, evidence and other phenomena related to UFOs.

One such UFO expert was Max Spiers, from Canterbury, who passed away under suspicious circumstances in June 2016.

Max reportedly sent a text message to his mother days before he died, saying: "If anything happens to me, investigate."

An inquest into his death was first opened in December 2016 in Canterbury, and then adjourned. As of November 8, 2017, the coroner had postponed another inquest until 'early 2018' as he still required more information.

An inquest into his death will now take place in January 2019, according to Metro.

A post-mortem examination to establish the cause of death was inconclusive. His death prompted intense speculation among conspiracy theorists that his death was deliberate.

Recent unexplained activity in Kent

In September 2017 the people of Tonbridge were mystified when an eerie aura-like light descended upon the town.

Explanations for the eerie phenomenon ranged from aliens, aluminium in the atmosphere, and the Aurora itself.

And in 2012, BUFORA recorded the sighting of a 'rare and unusual shape' flying through the sky in Wingham, near Canterbury.

It was described as: "A solid object - dark grey/black. It was pointed at the front and square like to the back, it had about five sides, like a classic diamond icon.

"There was absolutely no way I can think of to explain what I saw, and I have seen most kinds of aircraft in flight."

Kent Live can reveal every single UFO report made to the Ministry of Defence between 1997 and 2009.

Aliens on Mars: Are these NASA photos of ‘ALIEN faces’ on Mars evidence of UFO activity?

NASA pictures of Mars have sparked a frenzy with online conspiracy theorists who claim they can spot what appears to be alien faces and extraterrestrial technology in the images.
