These glowing objects above the Moon are
These glowing objects above the Moon are
During the Apollo missions, many photos were taken by the crews including rare images of strange bright and glowing objects above, on or near the moon.
The video below shows some rare images of these bright objects captured during the Apollo 11, 12, 13, 14 and 16 missions.
Apollo 13 was to be the third mission to land on the Moon. An explosion in one of the oxygen tanks crippled the spacecraft during flight and the crew were forced to orbit the Moon and return to the Earth without landing. During the orbit of the moon, the crew captured strange objects above and on the moon.
Now, there seems to be a ”Moon Industry” to have held for at least the past fifty years in the crater Plato as moving and flashing lights have been observed at the bottom of the crater.
For over hundred years the British Royal Astronomical Society has reported 1600 similar sightings of bright lights in the crater Aristarchus, lights at the eastern foot of the lunar Alps, in Mare Crisium a series of spots and streaks of light, and long light lines were seen from the crater Eudoxus.
These bright lights seem to be driven by electromagnetic energy. This energy will offer unlimited opportunities to build huge objects and to move and live in almost any environment.
These electromagnetic spaceships emit a pulsing glow under different conditions as the density of the atmosphere, humidity, velocity and the height of the spacecraft.
There can be no doubt, that many of these lights, especially the glowing moving objects, 'electromagnetic spaceships' are intelligently controlled.
The Rendlesham UFO Incident is the biggest UFO incident in the UK that happened in the days before Christmas back in year 1980. There are audio recordings of the airforce talking about these UFO sightings.
Few alleged UFO abduction cases have received as much attention as the one which occurred in a small Argentine town less than a month ago. Even fewer have received as much GOVERNMENT attention as the case of Irma Rick of Jacinto Araúz in La Pampa, Argentina. Rick mysteriously disappeared after hearing a loud noise and seeing a bright light. She was found 24 hours later, 40 miles away, not remembering anything else but still in possession of her cellphone. If she was abducted by a UFO, that cellphone could be the first known to have been on an extraterrestrial spaceship. Wouldn’t ANY government be interested in getting its hands on that?
Who could that be?
“The 3rd Judicial District of General Acha (La Pampa) has intervened as the competent body in this case. Dr. Juan Bautista Méndez took over the case in the court of first instance, but within a few days, investigative continuity fell to Dr. María Virginia Antón, deputy prosecutor, who was elevated to the position in June 2021.”
The go-to guy on the alien abduction case of Irma Rick is Luis Burgos, a well-known South American UFO investigator. After his initial investigation, he focused on the cellphone, which would be evidence in any missing person case. Burgos was able to interview Dr. Antón, who gave him some interesting and some disappointing answers. (See more on his website.)
The investigation aims at dismissing all “suspicious” that the event might have had: Spousal abuse, kidnapping, extortion, injury, etc.
Irma Rick’s smartphone is in the hands of judiciary at Dr. Antón’s request.
At first, a story circulated about Irma Rick’s spouse’s smartphone having also been taken. Dr. Antón denied this.
A medical report has been attached to the cause of action.
In principle, a report by an interdisciplinary team that visited the protagonist is yet to be attached.
The expert report on the infamous smartphone should be ready by February/March, as this matter takes time and Judicial Recess begins in January.
The results of the expert investigation will not be made public.
Antón’s department has Rick’s phone, appears to be treating it first as a criminal case, but will keep all results private. Luis Burgos doesn’t seem pleased with these answers. He notes on his website that the La Pampa area is a well-known UFO hotspot and the Irma Rick case is just the latest in a long string of unusual UFO-related occurrences there. He’s also worried that it will be ignored like so many other La Pampa incidents in the past.
“And it makes us wonder…if the Irma Rick case falls apart, collapses, or otherwise becomes uncertain, does it change Pampean case histories to any extent?”
Does no one care or are they hiding something?
Burgos hopes instead that the government will take its time and “the Irma Rick Case will serve to set a precedent in the subject of abductions and witnesses with smartphones.”
Will it? Let’s hope Luis Burgos keeps up the great work and keeps us informed.
The UFO phenomenon often seems to happen in waves. Every once in a while a particular place will seem to draw these strange anomalies to it, On occasion, some of these spates of UFO sightings will take a sharp turn into the truly bizarre, and one of these was a case from Canada that ended with a piece of physical evidence in the form of a copper disk apparently left behind by aliens and which has never been deciphered.
In 1967, the city of Edmonton, of the Canadian province of Alberta, would experience a series of very strange events. It seems to have begun in the early morning hours of May 8, 1967, when a 14-year-old boy by the name of Ricky Banyard saw “a spaceship” in the sky as he walked through the Mount Pleasant Cemetery on his way home at around 2 a.m. It was described as being spherical in shape, with red and green lights and top and bottom parts that were spinning. From the bottom of the craft emanated a beam of bright white light that seemed to be scouting the ground like a searchlight. The boy went to get his friend, Glenn Coates, and they both watched as it made its way towards some trees in the cemetery. They decided to get some binoculars and hide behind a tree nearby, where they were able to get a close look at the object, and Banyard would explain of what they saw:
It was 200 to 300 feet in the air and made a muffled whistling noise as it hovered. A white ribbon of light came from the bottom of it and spread out in a rectangular shape about 15 centimeters above the ground. The ground was white, as though white hot under it. When I stepped out from the trees for a better look, the light disappeared then there was kind of a screaming noise like a jet starting up. All the lights in the ship went out and there were about seven or eight bangs and it took off.

When they inspected the area where the light had hit the ground, they found some rectangular-shaped black streaks on the gravel road that wound through the cemetery. Banyard would make a sketch of the UFO, and when word got out he saw there were droves of curiosity coming to the cemetery every night hoping to get a glimpse of the mysterious object. Two days after Banyard’s experience, a middle-aged couple living nearby also saw what they described as a spherical craft with red and blue flashing lights on its edges and a beam shooting down from beneath it. Ten days after that, a 29-year-old school janitor by the name of Jack Strangman saw a “whitish, oval-shaped” object lurking over the cemetery, and at around the same time a “really bright, egg-shaped” craft with two pulsing red lights at each end was seen streaking away from the cemetery and into the night by a witness named Norman Fibke. This series of sightings stirred up a lot of media coverage and talk at the time, and strange lights would be seen in the skies of Edmonton throughout the summer, but it would not be until November of that year where the strangest case of all would emerge.
On November 4th, 1967, an Italian immigrant in the area known only as “L.R.” walked back to his home after dinner with friends at around 11:30 p.m. and then sat in his room having a cigarette and relaxing, when he looked out through the window and noticed an extremely bright red light streaking through the sky over the Saskatchewan River near the Riverside Municipal Golf Course. He watched as it took a trajectory towards the ground and then stopped to hover in the sky. Although he had at first thought it was a plane, he could now see that it was not, and his curiosity caused him to go to the window for a closer look. He could see that the object was round in shape, and had a very bright red, pulsating light, almost blinding in its intensity.
As he watched the strange object hover, it’s fierce red light suddenly blinked out, and it was as if the whole craft had vanished, and shortly after this, an ethereal blue ring appeared in the air, which then descended towards the ground to seemingly evaporate. Soon after, another blue ring did the same, then another, and after this the red light blazed on once again and a smaller light ejected from the bottom of the craft to go flying towards the ground. This smaller object seemed to be a silver sphere with a slight violet light, and as the larger craft remained stationary it flew around over the golf course, creating a buzzing noise as it did so, finally landing on the ground to seemingly vanish. A few minutes the light went on again and this smaller object flew up towards the larger one to disappear within it. After this, the larger object became brighter, its red light pulsating furiously, before the craft shot off into the distance.
The next day, L.R. went out to take a look at the area where he had seen the strange light show the night before. He made his way out over the golf course and after some time of looking around discovered where he surmised the smaller craft had landed. It was a circular patch of flattened grass about 16 feet wide, and off to the side were some anomalous holes in the ground. As he surveyed the area some more, something glinting in the grass nearby caught his eye, and when he went to see what it was he found lying there a plate made of what looked like copper, measuring approximately 17.3 cm (6.8 inches) wide by 12.5 cm (4.9 inches) high. Upon its surface were what appeared to be some sort of hieroglyphic-like drawings and symbols, their meaning inscrutable. Mesmerized by what he was seeing, L.R. picked up the plate to find that it was extraordinarily thin, only about 1 mm (0.04 inches) thick, and after studying the strange pictographs on its surface he took it home with him. At this time, he was convinced that this plate had come from one of the crafts he had seen, so he was very careful not to damage it as he had the impression that it was quite fragile.

Back at his home, L.R. wondered what he should do next and whether he should show the mysterious plate to someone, but in the end he decided that no one would believe him and so he held onto it and kept it a secret for years. When he went back to Italy six years later, he brought the strange artifact along with him, and somehow word got out about it in an Italian magazine on unsolved mysteries called Il Giornale dei Misteri. This captured the attention of UFO researcher Daniela Giordano, who talked personally with L.R. and has said of their correspondence:
At that time I was living in Rome and after some telephone calls to the magazine I obtained the telephone numbers of L.R. who was living in Southern Italy, near Naples. Thus, I got in telephone contact with him. He confirmed the story and told me he was not interested in analyzing the plate, in spite of my insistence. It was just like a lucky mascot for him, stored in his strongbox, and all this interest about his story was starting to disturb him. Moreover, he didn’t have much interest in UFOs and related matters. So, after this conversation, I proposed to send a friend of mine, living closer to his town, with the task of taking a photo of this strange plate, nothing more. He agreed, and I sent my friend to see him. Since this I have had no further contact with him, but I have been working in my free time to try to understand this puzzling plate. As far as I know, no other researchers have ever studied or done research on this strange object.
The photo that Giordano managed to get of the plate is the only known photographic evidence of the mysterious object. Giordano would manage to track L.R. down again years later, and hear that he had lost the plate when the police had stopped him one day on his way to work and confiscated his car and the bag he always carried it around in after his vehicle had been hit by a mysterious gunshot. A week later he got his car back, but not the plate, and he would never see it again. Where it went is anyone’s guess, and this means the only sign that it ever existed at all are the testimonies of L.R. and Giordano and the photograph. You can see the photograph here. It is all a truly bizarre case tied in with other sightings from the same area, and we are left to wonder just what was going on here. Was this something dropped or intentionally left behind? Was it just a hoax? If it was real, then where did it go and what did it say? We will probably never know.
Hundreds of dinosaur footprints have been discovered in a clay mine close to the village of Borkowice, Poland. It is such a significant find that experts have called it the most spectacular discovery ever made in Poland, as well as the largest find in all of Europe and possibly even the world.
The dinosaur tracks date back approximately 199 million years during the early part of the Jurassic Period that is known as the Hettangian Age (this was between 201.3 and 199.3 million years ago). They were found by Professor Grzegorz Pieńkowski from the National Geological Institute in Warsaw, as well as geologist and paleontologist Dr. Grzegorz Niedźwiedzki from Uppsala University.
(Not any of the footprints mentioned in this article.)
The tracks were so remarkably preserved that Dr. Niedźwiedzki explained them as looking like “…the dinosaurs were walking there yesterday,” adding, “This will make the site the largest collection of its type in Europe.” In fact, they were so well preserved that they have been compared to the best quality ones that were previously found in North America, Greenland, South Africa, and China.
The footprints were found in rocks with approximately 60 big blocks containing hundreds of tracks that have been recovered thus far. The researchers are planning on excavating over 200 additional blocks of rocks in the coming months and there could be as many as thousands more footprints that have yet to be found.
The prints were made by carnivorous and avian dinosaurs. Some of the tracks were made by sauropodomorphs (this group includes the Brontosaurus). The biggest footprints measured 40 centimeters in length (15.7 inches) which means that the dinosaurs that left them would have measured as tall as 6 meters (19.7 feet). What’s even more remarkable is that the claws and skin were imprinted in the rocks.
Another interesting fact is that even though hundreds of footprints were found, actual dinosaur bones are quite rare in Poland. The reason why not many dinosaur fossils have been found is because a lot of the country was under water millions of years ago and the fossil site near Borkowice was a coastal area.
This is certainly a very important and exceptional find as Professor Pieńkowski stated, “I have never seen such a treasure trove before.” Pictures of some of the footprints can be viewedhere.
It is believed that an asteroid smashed into the Earth some 66 million years ago, landing near the the Yucatan Peninsula in modern-day Mexico, and wiping out the dinosaurs and other countless species in the process. It was certainly a Great Reset for its time. But could it happened again, and if so, what would that mean for the human race?
When the “Chicxulub” asteroid struck the Earth back then, it triggered the equivalent of 100 nuclear winters, and is said to have wiped out roughly 75% of all species on the planet. If the same thing happened to day, it would, at the very least, go a long way towards wiping out the human race.
Surprisingly, some leading technocrats and radical environmentalists are in favour of an full-on Armageddon outcome…
Bioethicists Okay Human Extinction to Eliminate Suffering
These days, anti-humanism is as thick as molasses among the intelligentsia. That includes an ongoing conversation in bioethics whether — all things considered — human extinction would be a fine thing because of the suffering that never coming into existence would avoid.
Example: A few months ago, Oxford professor Roger Crisp opined that we might not want to stop a huge asteroid from hitting the Earth. From “Would extinction be so bad?”:
Consider the huge amount of suffering that continuing existence will bring with it, not only for humans, and perhaps even for “post-humans”, but also for sentient non-humans, who vastly outnumber us and almost certainly would continue to do so. As far as humans alone are concerned, Hilary Greaves and Will MacAskill at the University of Oxford’s Global Priorities Institute estimate that there could be one quadrillion (1015) people to come – an estimate they describe as conservative.
These numbers, and the scale of suffering to be put into the balance alongside the good elements in individuals’ lives, are difficult to fathom and so large that it’s not obvious that you should deflect the asteroid. In fact, there seem to be some reasons to think you shouldn’t….
Perhaps one reason we think extinction would be so bad is that we have failed to recognise just how awful extreme agony is. Nevertheless, we have enough evidence, and imaginative capacity, to say that it is not unreasonable to see the pain of an hour of torture as something that can never be counterbalanced by any amount of positive value. And if this view is correct, then it suggests that the best outcome would be the immediate extinction that follows from allowing an asteroid to hit our planet.
Crisp equivocates a bit at the end, writing, “I am not claiming that extinction would be good; only that, since it might be, we should devote a lot more attention to thinking about the value of extinction than we have to date.” Good grief. Is the issue really debatable?
Not to be outdone, writing in response to Crisp in the Journal of Medical Ethics Blog, University of Calgary professor Walter Glannon shrugs his big brain at the prospect of us being gone. From “A world without us”:
We cannot predict the sort of lives future people would have because we do not know the sort of world they would inhabit. But the circumstances described above make it difficult to be optimistic. Regardless of the hypothetical value or disvalue of these lives, possible people are not deprived of anything if they do not come into existence.
We have an obligation to collectively act to prevent or reduce the suffering that present and future humans will actually experience. This depends on controlling natural habitats, deforestation, carbon emissions and other processes. Future actual people have the same rights and interests in avoiding suffering as present actual people. The extent of suffering may provide a pro tanto reason to prevent them from existing. Even if there is no such reason, merely possible people do not have these rights and interests because they do not and will not exist. If we become extinct, then the world will go on without us and will be good or bad for no one.
Why do ivory-tower discussions like this matter? Because these nihilists are teaching the society leaders of tomorrow, those who will exert tremendous influence over future public policies and cultural attitudes. With our supposedly best minds suggesting that human extinction could be desirable, is it any wonder why so many of our young people seem to be despairing?
Moreover, the utter terror of suffering is pathological and leads directly to evil and/or terribly wrongheaded utilitarian policies such as eugenics and social Darwinism. It is also the moving force behind the euthanasia movement, which seeks to eliminate suffering by eliminating the sufferer. Avoiding suffering is also the central philosophical core of the transhumanism quasi-religion, which seeks to create a corporeal immortality by instilling a new eugenics with very sharp teeth…
So, what should be our attitude toward suffering? It should not be utopian scheming. Nor, to be sure, should it be indifference. Rather, we have a human duty to mitigate each other’s suffering, to love and “suffer with” each other — which is the root meaning of compassion. And we can harness our own suffering to grow and become better individuals.
In this regard, for my Humanize podcast, I recently interviewed the quadriplegic Christian evangelist and disability rights activists Joni Eareckson Tada, who unexpectedly took a deep dive into this very issue, and in a very intimate and personal way. Regardless of faith issues, her attitude toward — and personal response to — her own deep suffering is much healthier than the nihilism that has grown so dark within utilitarian bioethics that some don’t reject the prospect of human extinction out of hand
On 28 April 2021, NASA's Parker Solar Probe actually flew into and through the solar corona, the upper atmosphere of the Sun. Not only did it live to tell the tale – proving the efficacy of Parker's high-tech heat shielding – it took in situ measurements, giving us a wealth of never-before-seen data on the heart of our Solar System.
"Parker Solar Probe 'touching the Sun' is a monumental moment for solar science and a truly remarkable feat," said astrophysicist Thomas Zurbuchen, associate administrator for the Science Mission Directorate at NASA Headquarters.
"Not only does this milestone provide us with deeper insights into our Sun's evolution and its impacts on our Solar System, but everything we learn about our own star also teaches us more about stars in the rest of the Universe."
Parker Solar Probe launched in 2018, with its primary objective to probe the solar corona. In its planned seven-year mission, it should be making a total of 26 close approaches, or perihelions, to the Sun, using a total of seven gravity assist maneuvers from Venus to bring it ever closer. The April perihelion was the eighth, and the first to actually enter the corona.
In its nearly five hours inside the solar atmosphere, Parker measured fluctuations in the Sun's magnetic field and sampled particles. Previously, our estimates of these properties relied on external information.
"Flying so close to the Sun, Parker Solar Probe now senses conditions in the magnetically dominated layer of the solar atmosphere – the corona – that we never could before," said astrophysicist Nour Raouafi, Parker project scientist at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory.
"We see evidence of being in the corona in magnetic field data, solar wind data, and visually in images. We can actually see the spacecraft flying through coronal structures that can be observed during a total solar eclipse."
Above: The bright features visible in the pictures here are coronal streamers, normally only seen from Earth during an eclipse. These were imaged by the Parker probe during the ninth perihelion in August this year.
The Sun doesn't have a solid surface. Instead, its boundary is defined by what we call the Alfvén critical surface, where gravity and the Sun's magnetic fields are too weak to contain the solar plasma.
Above this point, the solar wind emerges, blowing powerfully through the Solar System, so fast that waves within the wind break away from the Sun. What we call the 'surface' of the Sun, composed of roiling convection cells plasma and known as the photosphere, is far below.
One of the goals of Parker was to find out more about the Alfvén critical surface; namely, where it is, and what its topography is like, since we didn't know either of those things. Estimates had put the Alfvén critical surface at somewhere between 10 and 20 solar radii from the center of the Sun. Parker entered the corona at 19.7 solar radii, dipping down to as low as 18.4 solar radii during its corona jaunt.
Interestingly, the probe seemed to encounter the magnetic conditions of the corona sporadically, suggesting that the Alfvén critical surface is wrinkled. At lower depths, Parker encountered a magnetic structure known as a pseudostreamer, which we can see arcing out from the Sun during solar eclipses. Parker's data suggest that these structures are responsible for the deformation of the Alfvén critical surface, although we don't currently know why.
Inside the pseudostreamer, conditions were quieter than the surrounding solar atmosphere. Particles no longer buffeted the spacecraft quite so chaotically, and the magnetic field was more orderly.
Parker also investigated a phenomenon known as solar switchbacks. These are Z-shaped kinks in the magnetic field of the solar wind, and it's not currently known where or how they form. We've known about switchbacks since the 1990s, but it wasn't until Parker investigated them in 2019 that we learnt that they are rather common. Then on its sixth flyby, the probe's data showed us that switchbacks occur from patches.
Now Parker has detected them inside the solar atmosphere, suggesting that at least some of the switchbacks come from the lower corona.
"The structure of the regions with switchbacks matches up with a small magnetic funnel structure at the base of the corona," said astronomer Stuart Bale of the University of California, Berkeley, lead author on a paper on the phenomenon in press at The Astrophysical Journal. "This is what we expect from some theories, and this pinpoints a source for the solar wind itself."
We still don't know how these curious structures formed, but with dozens more perihelions ahead, going as close as 9.86 solar radii from the center of the Sun, we're likely to be getting some pretty fascinating answers.
"We have been observing the Sun and its corona for decades, and we know there is interesting physics going on there to heat and accelerate the solar wind plasma. Still, we cannot tell precisely what that physics is," Raouafi said.
"With Parker Solar Probe now flying into the magnetically-dominated corona, we will get the long-awaited insights into the inner workings of this mysterious region."
Historische primeur: ruimtevaartuig 'raakt' voor het eerst de zon
“We hebben de zon geraakt”, tweet NASA. Voor het eerst in de geschiedenis heeft een ruimtevaartuig dat door de mens is gemaakt, contact gehad met de zon. De eer ging naar de Parker Solar Probe (PSP).
Joeri Vlemings
NASA-sonde Parker vloog op 28 april van dit jaar in en door de zonnecorona, de buitenste atmosfeer rond de zon. Het hoogtechnologische hitteschild van Parker hield stand en de sonde kon unieke metingen uitvoeren. Dat leverde een schat aan nooit eerder geziene gegevens over het hart van ons zonnestelsel op. “De nieuwe mijlpaal betekent een grote stap voor de Parker Solar Probe en een grote sprong voorwaarts voor de zonnewetenschap”, aldus NASA, verwijzend naar de historische woorden van Neil Armstrong, de Amerikaanse astronaut die in 1969 als eerste mens voet op de maan zette. “Net zoals de landing op de maan wetenschappers in staat stelde te begrijpen hoe de maan werd gevormd, zullen wetenschappers door het aanraken van het materiaal waarvan de zon is gemaakt cruciale informatie kunnen ontdekken over onze naaste ster en haar invloed op het zonnestelsel.”
Thomas Zurbuchen van NASA vult aan: “Niet alleen geeft deze mijlpaal ons meer inzicht in de evolutie van onze zon en de invloed ervan op ons zonnestelsel, maar alles wat we leren over onze eigen ster, leert ons ook meer over sterren in de rest van het universum.”
De Parker Solar Probe werd op 12 augustus 2018 gelanceerd om in zeven jaar tijd 26 maal langs de zon te vliegen, telkens op kleinere afstand. Zo’n dichte toenadering tot de zon heet een perihelium. Het achtste perihelium in april was een primeur omdat de PSP voor het eerst de zonnecorona invloog. De sonde bleef bijna vijf uur in de zonneatmosfeer, mat fluctuaties in het magnetisch veld van de zon en nam monsters van deeltjes. Het gaat om waarnemingen die de mensheid tot dan nooit heeft kunnen doen.
“We kunnen het ruimtevaartuig zien vliegen door coronale structuren die we kunnen waarnemen tijdens een totale zonsverduistering”, legt astrofysicus Nour Raouafi van het Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory uit. “Nu de Parker Solar Probe in de magnetisch gedomineerde corona vliegt, krijgen we de langverwachte inzichten in de innerlijke werking van dit mysterieuze gebied.”
Glowing Spheres Over Paterson, New Jersey, 12-10-2021 (graphic language) UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting:Dec 10, 2021 Location of sighting:Paterson, New Jersey, USA Source: MUFON
In this five minute video we see dozens of glowing circular objects moving across the sky. The objects are following each other in a line. Sometimes in the video I see a pair of the objects moving apart, then suddenly moving back together so it seem they are trying stay together. You can hear the eyewitnesses dismay and confusion in their voices as they watch the craft flying over them. At one point in the video one glowing object comes over them, he zoomed in on it, showing a whiteish sphere object, then it moves away. This moment excited the eyewitness who can be heard saying, "See! See I told you so!" meaning he said they were alien craft and this show of intelligence of the craft made that statement accurate.
This huge cigar-shaped UFO was filmed hovering in the daytime sky above Albuquerque in New Mexico. This happened in the recent days.
Witness report:
I watched it during an entire 15 minute drive and then filmed it once I got to the destination since the videos from the car were just awful. It stayed in that same spot. Then I sat and watched it about 5 more minutes before going inside.
It was in April 1561 when all residents of Nuremberg, Germany, came out of their houses to investigate mysterious lights and loud sounds. They watched the sky, in awe and fear as they witnessed what appeared to be some kind of air battle—and all of this in broad daylight of the early morning.
The reports of event say it lasted for about an hour, and artist Hans Glaser documented this strange event for the German Nuremberg Gazette. Describing the event, he refers to crosses, tubes, wheels, multi-colored objects and globes over the city. Hundreds of them. Objects would disappear in smoke, some even crashing into the ground. The smoke was visible for miles.
This image and description have begged explanation for centuries. What on Earth could explain these phenomena that were seemingly witnessed by many people?
Some would dismiss all of this to the appearance of meteors or comets, even other natural events, but the uniqueness of the Nuremberg incident eliminates such interpretations. The detailed description which is given by Glaser doesn’t seem to fit with any naturally occurring causes:
…the dreadful apparition filled the morning sky with cylindrical shapes from which emerged black, red, orange and blue-white spheres that darted about. Between the spheres, there were crosses with the color of blood. This frightful spectacle was witnessed by ‘numerous men and women.’ Afterwards, a black, spear-like object appeared. The author of the Gazette warned that ‘the God-fearing will by no means discard these signs, but will take it to heart as a warning of their merciful Father in heaven, will mend their lives and faithfully beg God, that he avert His wrath, including the well-deserved punishment, on us, so that we may, temporarily here and perpetually there, live as His children.’
Cylinders, crosses and a black spear-like object appearing in the sky are something that you would imagine seeing in a modern air-battle – but not something that would take place half a millennium ago!
A few years later, in 1566, another similar event took place in Basel, Switzerland, but this time it involved black orbs in a sky skirmish above the city. That event was also recorded at the time in the city’s gazette .
Another similar event took place in 1697 in Hamburg, Germany, where the crowd watched two enormous glowing wheels in the sky above the city.
Multiple reports odd phenomena in the skies over major cities my multiple people have to be describing some peculiar event. Unfortunately, there were no cameras available back then to take photos or videos of the events, so newspaper references and drawings are our only evidence. These remain open to the interpretations of many, and also to the various differing descriptions of the eyewitnesses. But nonetheless, something happened in the sky that day.
Very bright sun dogs in Fargo, North Dakota. Also visible are parts of the 22° halo (the arcs passing through each sundog), a sun pillar (the vertical line) and the parhelic circle (the horizontal line).
Frank Johnson has recently made an effort to debunk the Nuremberg event to sky reflections and the ‘sun dog’ lighting effect produced by the Sun, without offering any explanations for the sounds, the crashed objects or the smoke, and merely hypothesizing that these particulars could simply be either the imagination of the people or nothing at all.
Another interpretation claims the whole description could be of a ground battle, with the cylinders being cannon and the spheres being the cannon balls.
Is it possible that the entire event never happened and the newspaper reference was just a joke or at least an exaggeration of peoples reporting? Johnson notes that the broadsheets of the time, “contained the news of the weird or violent, and they had no problem stretching the truth to sell a few copies”.
When you have eliminated all which is impossible, then whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. Of course, all have not been eliminated here, but equally a terrestrial explanation is yet to have been found. The reporting of the event so resembles what you would expect from a sky battle of modern times that explanations of a battle between visiting aliens or even some kind of time shifting event remain on the table.
It is up to you to choose what to believe, but use the evidence and take it further, and above all investigate to find the truth.

Un crash d'ovni sur Mars ? Une photo de la NASA sème le trouble

Une photo de la sonde Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter où apparaît ce qui ressemble à un objet artificiel suscite un débat passionné.
Mars n’en finit pas de livrer ses surprises et même des photos déjà anciennes peuvent donner lieu à de troublantes «découvertes». C’est ainsi qu’un certain Jean Ward, un Sud-Africain passionné de la planète rouge et surtout des anomalies plus ou moins étranges que l’on peut y trouver, fait le buzz avec une image prise par la sonde Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter en 2006, visible sur le site de l'Université de l'Arizona. Passée inaperçue à l’époque, cette photo montre une longue trace sur le sol martien, dans l'un des nombreux canyons de la région de Valles Marineris, à proximité de l’équateur.
Au bout de cette traînée, on distingue un objet circulaire d’une quinzaine de mètres de diamètre qui semble à demi enfoui dans le sable. Il n’en fallait pas plus pour déclencher un débat enflammé entre ceux qui y voient la preuve évidente du crash d’un vaisseau spatial et les sceptiques qui rappellent que les jeux d’ombres et de lumières peuvent créer les illusions les plus convaincantes. D’autant que Mars, désormais aussi photographiée qu’une star sur la Croisette, fournit régulièrement son lot de paréidolies, ces formes que le cerveau tend naturellement à forger aussi bien dans les nuages que dans le chaos de sable et de roches de notre proche voisine.
The only thing more terrifying that someone saying “Look … a black hole!” is someone saying “Look … a black hole … and it sprung a leak!” That’s the strange message coming to us from the Hubble telescope – working again and sending scary photos to remind us why it’s still the reigning king of space telescopes until the James Webb one launches, deploys and proves itself. In the meantime, NASA reports that Hubble found evidence that Sagittarius A* — the Milky Way’s supermassive black hole – is leaking a jet of hot gas. Is it time to find a giant cork … or a new galaxy?
How big is that leak?
“Our central black hole clearly surged in luminosity at least 1 millionfold in the last million years. That sufficed for a jet to punch into the Galactic halo.”
That ready-for-Jeff-Goldblum-as-a-NASA-scientist movie line comes from Tsukuba University’s Alex Wagner, co-author of new research published in the Astrophysical Journal, explaining in a NASA press release how Sagittarius A* sprung a leak … if something which happened over a million years can be considered a ‘spring’. Wagner and Gerald Cecil of the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill were studying data on Sgr A* from Hubble, NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory, the Jansky Very Large Array telescope in New Mexico and the ALMA Observatory in Chile when they noticed an expanding, narrow linear jet of molecular gas 15 light-years away from the black hole. Hubble infrared-wavelength images showed a glowing, inflating bubble of hot gas aligned to the jet at a distance of at least 35 light-years from the black hole. Wagner paints a better picture.
“The streams percolate out of the Milky Way’s dense gas disk. The jet diverges from a pencil beam into tendrils, like that of an octopus.”
This is a composite view of X-rays, molecular gas, and warm ionized gas near the galactic center. The orange-colored features are of glowing hydrogen gas. One such feature, at the top tip of the jet (see the annotated image below) is interpreted as a hydrogen cloud that has been hit by the outflowing jet. The jet scatters off the cloud into tendrils that flow northward. Farther down near the black hole are X-ray observations of superheated gas colored blue and molecular gas in green. These data are evidence that the black hole occasionally accretes stars or gas clouds, and ejects some of the superheated material along its spin axis.

This schematic is based on multiwavelength observations of a suspected jet from the massive black hole at the center of our Milky Way galaxy. The wide view shows our galaxy edge-on, with two huge bubbles of plasma glowing in gamma-rays and X-rays. These are evidence for an explosive outburst from the black hole about 2 million years ago. Probing deep into the galaxy's core (inset), astronomers using the Hubble Space Telescope have captured a glowing cloud of hydrogen near the black hole. The interpretation is that the cloud is being hit by a narrow, columnated jet of material that was blasted out of the black hole merely 2,000 years ago. The black hole is still active, but on a smaller scale of energy output than previously known outbursts. When the jet slams into the hydrogen knot the outflow scatters into octopus-like tendrils that continue along a trajectory out of our galaxy.

(Composite views of the leaking gas can be seen here.) While Sgr A* is said to be in a powered down state at the moment, it apparently still shows signs of activity when something gets sucked into its supermassive mouth and it belches out some gas. Unfortunately, the leak can’t be seen until it powers up again, but Cecil says that will happen soon … and it will be “cool.”
“The black hole need only increase its luminosity by a hundredfold over that time to refill the jet channel with emitting particles. It would be cool to see how far the jet gets in that outburst.”
We’re gonna need a bigger cork
When you’re an astronomer, you get your kicks wherever you can. The next step for the team is to use the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT), an international collaboration capturing images of black holes using a virtual Earth-sized telescope, to take images of the black hole’s shadow which may show where and how the leak is launched.
In the meantime, Hubble will keep sending back its fantastic images until the James Webb telescope gets its act together.
“I think they are studying us. I don’t know what they really want.”
What kind of psychic says he knows for certain that extraterrestrials have been secretly watching humans for thousands of years … yet can’t tell us what they want? Uri Geller, of course! The Sultan of Spoon Bending has moved on from claiming to influence sports games and election results to warning that aliens are finally going to make themselves visible to us after studying humans from hidden locations.
“But I think they are preparing us for contact for the Steven Spielberg scenario of landing and it’s going to be spectacular. They will probably land on the White House lawn or somewhere. All our science fiction films about alien encounter will come true.”
Would Spielberg have an alien ship land on the White House lawn? Based on how his latest film is doing, he wouldn’t have them do a dance number as they exited the ship. In an interview with The Sun Online, Geller has expanded his earlier statements that ETs have been watching us for 50 years and now says they’ve been patiently observing for thousands. One would think Geller should have more accurate numbers since he has often claimed he received his psychic powers from aliens … although under hypnosis he once claimed he IS an ET sent here from another solar system. Whatever the case, he’s never been known to do anything as spectacular as bending spoons, so perhaps that’s what we should be prepared for the ETs to do on the White House lawn.
“There is no doubt in my mind that they are gentle and I’ll tell you why – if they weren’t we would have been destroyed a long time ago. Their ability to move in such erratic ways has never been seen before. It’s simply unbelievable. I think the Pentagon know much more but they’re not telling us.”
Geller conveniently piggybacks onto the Tic Tac UFO accounts with his comment about “their ability to move his such erratic ways.” However, to accuse the Pentagon of knowing more than they’re telling us conveniently sidesteps that fact that psychic Geller should also know more than he’s telling us … probably more than the Pentagon knows if he’s really an ET and/or a psychic. Is it any wonder why the late James Randi was so skeptical of Geller?
Will the aliens tell us how to bend spoons?
At this point, it doesn’t take a psychic to figure out what comes next. No, not an exact date of the spectacular arrival of the ETs – the best Geller can do is say “60 to 75 years it’s going to happen.” What Geller reveals next to The Sun Online is what he’s plugging – a new book on how anyone can use their own psychic powers to obtain “health, wealth, success and peace of mind.”
Sorry, Uri, we’d rather know when the aliens are coming and what kind of spoons they’ll be bending.
This is a great example of a classic disk UFO seen before it makes itself invisible. Ever seen a disk cloud, then instantly it disappears in front of your eyes, yeah thats what happens every time an alien telepathically senses its noticed. The UFO is dark red with a dome on its upper middle. The eyewitness (a young woman) even stated that she thought she saw a figure moving inside the craft for a few seconds. However most aliens have powerful telepathic senses amplified by their advanced technology, therefore its safe to assume that the alien was watching, recording the human activity below until it was noticed and it immediately cloaked, making it appear to evaporate in thin air, but in reality, its still sitting there watching the eyewitness.

Eyewitness states: “I was looking for a place for a photo production -sweaters factory- and I had been looking for a location, photographing and filming for 3 hours. When I was taking the picture of Cerro Paulino I realized that was there, I shot the photo and looked up, it was something black and there was something red inside, but in a millisecond it was hidden among the clouds, "she said.
Above screenshot shows a closeup of the UFO and below is added focus to see some detail.
Here is an amazing discovery of a oblong UFO found in a Mars map photo from NASA archives. The UFO has a shape unlike any I have ever seen before, but conforms to the balanced symmetry that one would expect it to have. The UFO is tilted 45 degrees due to it landing on a flat surface and the UFO itself having a rounded underbelly. Such objects are littered across Mars and even on the moon, which if salvaged by humans, could give humanity the technology it needs to survive indefinitely in the depths of space across the universe.
Have you heard China complaining and threatening to get back at the US for boycotting the olympics in Beijing and how the US tries to stop US from working with any China companies? Well, China is fighting back, covertly.
Guys, across the Internet we are hearing about how upwards of 30 tornadoes that hit the United States late at night, killing about a hundred people or more. And just a few days ago the world heard about how China has been using weather control to make it rain and clean the air more in China in an area the size of Alaska. But there are a few things you probably don't know.
China has the worlds largest radio telescope, five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope, or FAST – which was declared fully operational as recently as January 2020. It's in China's Guizhou province. This is just the kind of instrument needed to create tornados.
Back in 1993 the US Air Force created the HAARP program, research into how to use electronic waves to manipulate the weather around them world, by bouncing a signal up into the sky and bouncing it off the ionosphere onto a location somewhere on Earth. The program started in Gabona, Alaska and lasted until 2014, when it was announced that the HARRP program would shut down. However it may have continued in covert in order to escape the protests of the public.
Somewhere along the line, China stole the details, research and tech knowhow to do their own HAARP program but not for research as much as research to be a weapon. China makes it a priority to steal any technology the US has...from the NASA space shuttle (they took it) to the newest Awacs (Fairborn warning control systems) military planes.
Also the fact that tornados don't come 30 at a time! Let alone at night and...in December with temperatures below freezing. Tornados usually come in spring and summer months. Scientists say May and June the peek tornado months. All weather scientists know...cold weather limits tornados. And to compound it all...the tornado hit at night, when everyone was inside, unable to see any tornadoes coming, thus unable to escape them. This HAARP China program is a weapon to punish its adversaries, to hurt them, to kill them, and to hurt the economy financially from the destruction.
Even President Biden said, "This is likely to be one of the largest tornado outbreaks in our history."
So...I post here the facts, my thoughts, and let you make your own decisions. China has the means and the motivation. But all the facts point to weather manipulation, a new kind of war.
