Easy Rider Passes Off Real Message About Aliens Over The Last 70 Years, July 14, 1969, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of movie: July 14, 1969
Title of movie: Easy Rider
Writer of movie: Dennis Hopper, Peter Fonda, Terry Southern

How do you pass on a message about aliens to millions all at the same time without having government men stop you? Movies right? Well, they did just that in the America classic movie Easy Rider. Apparently one of the writers got some inside information about aliens, because every freaking word that Jack Nicholson says is 100% on the mark. I could find no flaws in anything he said. I can find dozens of references of evidence to back up every accusation he has made. 

There were three writers of the script, Dennis Hopper, Peter Fonda and Terry Southern. One of these people had inside information about aliens and how they are influencing the world today. I knew about everything he said already, but even today, most people don't know even 5% of it. So, how did they know it then? Every word, every sentence was logically written to expose the alien influence over the last 70 years. 

In the scene, Jack Nicholson explains how aliens have influence humanity over the last 70 years and how humanity will grow because of it. When Jack finishes, they look down at his joint and are in awe, because...he hadn't been smoking it and it went out.

This is a rare Easter egg hidden in one of the most legendary movies in American history.

US Military Veteran claims to have worked with aliens at Nellis Air Force Base, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of interview: March 2013
Location of alien interaction: Nellis AFB, Nevada, USA
News Source: http://www.openminds.tv/man-claims-on-au-tv-us-worked-with-ets-948

Now maybe some of you have seen this before, but its new to me and very pertinent to understand several things. He tells us about 3 alien species he worked with. He also tells us about the whites, which would explain why I find so many white ceramic-like structures with dark windows on Earths moon. Its worth listening to, and learning about. Lets keep an eye on Ellis AFB.

News states:
Charles James Hall, a Vietnam Veteran, has given a fascinating interview on an Australian news morning show, where he claimed that he had worked with Aliens in the Nellis Nevada Air Force base. He was stationed in the Airforce for more than two years and during that period of time he claims that he was in contact with three different species of Alien. The ones that he calls White aliens, the Grey Aliens of Roswell and a race called the Nordics that look like humans. The white aliens could live up to 700 years, reminding us of the old testament and other ancient texts which have mentioned such long life spans. According to Charles, the US government agreed to give Aliens temporary residence at the Nellis Air Force base. The government was willing to give them anything they required for technology transfer.

Donut UFO Passes Over Traffic At De Pinte, Belgium On Aug 18, 2015, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: August 18, 2015
Location of sighting: De Pinte, Belgium 

This UFO was over the a small town with a population of 10,235, so its no wonder there wasn't more videos of it. I enlarged this UFO in each of the three screenshots I took, and found something unusual. Each close up I made has an aura around it, which shows the hole in the middle is smaller that it looks and the sides are much farther out than we can see. This UFO is using some kind of tech to make itself look smaller than it is. This is proof that it is an actual UFO. Do you remember the old stories about UFOs in photos looking fuzzy, due to their propulsion systems? There you go.

UFO Witnesses Share The Same UFO Sighting Decades Later

Symbolic picture

North Central Ohio is very curious about UFO stories. News Journal received a lot of calls after publishing a story on Sunday about a well-known UFO incident that happened on October 18, 1973, in the Mansfield area. An investigator wants to talk to the witnesses about what happened that night.

A handful of present and past residents contacted the newspaper and Mutual UFO Network investigator Terry Hamilton.

No one could identify the aerial object that fall day over four decades ago. But many remember the event vividly because it was very strange to them.

Brian Stevens, who was 13 at that time, said he saw an orange ball hovering and reflecting the light of the setting sun. Steven was looking at Westbrook Country Club when he saw the strange floating object.

Later that night, Glenn Stout was taking a break from his job at Mansfield Tire. He was on the back dock standing with some coworkers when he saw an unusual light travelling toward and almost colliding with a helicopter above the Westbrook Country Club area.

After that sighting, he saw a news story about a UFO that interfered with the flight path of an Army Reserve helicopter above Mansfield. He was sure the news was talking about the same incident he had witnessed. On the same month, he claimed to have received surprisingly low bill amounting $4 only. He wondered whether the object had something to do with it.

Judith Hamm was outside a home earlier in the day near Pavonia when she noticed a plane flying toward another plane, but the object veered away and vanished. Hamm said she nearly screamed because she thought a collision was coming.

Hamm said that she thought that the object was a military aircraft at first but realized it wasn’t because it moved faster than any plane and performed a strange manoeuvre.

Latest Eerie UFO Sightings

Although technically a UFO refers to any unidentified flying objects, most people connect the term as synonymous with alien space vehicle. An unidentified flying object is a kind of anomaly inside sky that is not acknowledgeable to the observer. Although a small proportion stays unexplained, nearly all sightings can be a natural phenomenon or even man-made objects. On the other side, there are governmental and military personnel claiming that the sightings people are experiencing are just technological advancements tested in secrecy.

In a creepy footage recorded by Carole Thorpe, there was a fireball hovering over a lake in the night sky. The balls appear to be orange in the shade at an unusual speed. Are they aliens? Alternatively, a sunlight reflecting a satellite? In every investigation, you need to critically and thoroughly examine the actual evidence. Bear in mind that the more evidence that is being confirmed as unreliable, the greater the doubt as to its validity.

According to Carole Thorpe, the strange object is moving in a purposeful line beginning from the South up to North. Based on the footage, the object was shaking, and the lights were flickering intermittently. The footage was being recorded in the Grayslake Village, Illinois at 9 pm. According to the people surrounding her, there were numerous reports from different witnesses about the mysterious flying object that night. Of course, it could not be a lantern or a meteor as they have entirely different looks.  There was also no sound.

Regardless of what people believe, mysterious sightings are still regular occurrences. In fact,  such sightings being caught on the video have been reported in mainstream media outlets across the globe. Whatever your beliefs are, it is only a matter of time before irrefutable evidence of unidentified flying objects is being proven. Are you ready?

A crashed UFO discovered in Antarctica?

In the distant past, Antarctica is believed to have been a thriving content very different from what we see today. Some even believe, that ancient civilizations might have prospered on this once great continent, which is today, hidden beneath layers of ice and snow. Today, Antarctica is a nearly inhospitable place on Earth and everything that might have existed in the distant past on Antarctica lies hidden beneath the snow. There are countless legends that are connected with Antarctica, some of them speak about incredible pyramids hidden across the harsh landscape, secret underground facilities where the impossible comes to life and some even believe that somewhere, on Antarctica, lies the entrance to the mythical land of "Shangri-La", a paradise located in the interior of the Earth. UFO stories aren't something uncommon when it comes to Antarctica, and in this article, we discuss a possible UFO crash site that has been found with the help of Google Earth. 

 

If you really believe that all of this are just legends and fairytales you should probably take a moment and use Google Earth and visit Antarctica for yourself. All of a sudden science fiction stories come a step closer to reality, as you will find many unexplained things which are easily identifiable on the white surface. 

 

Russian researcher Valentin Degterev used google Earth and might have found an actual UFO crash-site on Antarctica. As Degterev was looking at Antarctica's landscape he came across a huge unidentified object half buried in the snow.  Degterev came across this mysterious object a couple of years ago, but according to Degterev, this object crashed on Earth in the distant past, possibly millions of years ago. After publishing the images of the alleged UFO on social media, the news went viral all over the world.

 

Degterev stated: "I think it's a huge flying disc-shaped machine buried in the frozen ice, I found the mysterious object using Google Earth while looking at Antarctica. Amid the endless ice desert, it is a genuine UFO in its most classic form."

 

The Russian "researcher" also disclosed the coordinates where he had found the object so that anyone can check it out and form their opinion. Here are the coordinates: 80 ° 34'08.4 "S 30 ° 05'19.3" W. According to Degterev the UFO is about 20 meters wide and 70 meters long, ruling out the possibility that it was a natural formation like a cliff or a large crack, and could not be a polar station, a crashed plane, or a lost boat.

 

 

Nigel Watson, author of the UFO Investigations Manual, said: ‘It’s hard to tell if this a “classic” saucer sticking out of the ice, or whether it is a break in the ice.

‘Antarctica has a long tradition of being the resting place of crashed saucers or a base for their operations.’ 

 

Degterev went further and stated that the mysterious object definitely had a metallic body and was not made of rock or stone. But Andrew Fleming, a researcher at the British Antarctic Survey told the Daily Mail Online that the object was clearly a large crack in the floor of Antarctica. "Its a crevasse. A crevasse is a lot of ice formed by differential movement of the ice,' he said.

'They can be tens of metres deep. It's one large slot, nothing unusual, but they are spectacular. It's certainly not a UFO, though.'

 

What are your thoughts, is this an actual UFO that crashed on Antarctica in the distant past? Or is it just a crevasse as some experts suggest? Let us know what you think.

What Would Aliens Actually Look Like? We Asked 7 Experts

Movies and TV shows would have us believe aliens would look a bit like us, only with a big (bald) head, green skin, and crazy eyes. Don't believe it.

Movies and TV shows would have us believe aliens would look a bit like us, only with a big (bald) head, green skin, and crazy eyes. But we weren't satisfied with that old cliche. So we decided to ask sci-fi authors, science experts, and ET buffs what they think extraterrestrials really would look like.

Kevin Anderson

Cred: Science-fiction author

"Look at the incredible diversity of biotypes here on Earth, all of which evolved under the same planetary environment. I don't believe an alien species from an entirely different biochemical foundation would happen to turn out with two arms, two legs, two eyes, ears, nostrils . . . two genders, warm-blooded, and so on. But, for intelligence one would assume brain capacity, and therefore the body would need some sort of protective mechanism for the vital brain—an exoskeleton, a skull, something like that.

"To build tools they would need some kind of manipulative digits, like fingers (not necessarily an opposable thumb, maybe prehensile tentacles). There would have to be a reproductive system, but it could be budding, seeding, fission, egg laying—not necessarily live, warm-blooded birth. They would require some sort of sensory systems, the analogs of eyes, ears, smelling apparatuses. But their "eyes" would have evolved for the peak spectrum of their own sun, not necessarily ours.

"Do they live in a sea? In the clouds of a gas giant? On land? In a desert? In a jungle? They would need a way to eat or consume energy, and they would need to excrete waste. For intelligence, they'd need to communicate—by voice? Pheromones? Blinking phosphorescent patches?"

"When it comes to film and TV, it's problematic to make a race of aliens that does not resemble humans. Actors have to play these roles. What aliens look like in the real world will depend on where they evolved. An alien that evolved in interstellar space would have very different needs from an alien that evolved on an Earthlike planet.

"There is one thing that is nearly certain: an alien life form will be symmetrical. Everything we know of that grows follows a symmetrical pattern. Cut a tree in half lengthwise, the branches and roots on one side would be fairly similar to the other. The same applies to humans and all living growth, even inorganic growth such as crystals and galaxies.

"The size and shape of the alien would be determined by gravity, ambient density, and source of energy. Plantlike aliens are unlikely because photosynthesis doesn't encourage complex survival strategies. The need to chase food favors mobile life. If such life evolved in a thick atmosphere, it's likely to be a horizontal creature. A thinner atmosphere would favor the most vertical animals. Two legs and two arms are more efficient than four legs, so incorporating the rule of symmetry, it's not unlikely that aliens would have evolved just like humans: bipedal and upright.

"When we consider that 95 percent of the universe is not perceptible by our senses or technology (dark matter and energy), then it's most likely that's where the aliens are. So one might say most aliens don't look like anything because they are invisible."

Aaron Rosenberg

Cred: Science-fiction author

"Never mind the gaunt, nearly skeletal figure with the long talons and the scorpion-like tail and the mouth full of razor teeth. Never mind the little green or gray men with oversize craniums and oversize eyes and tiny mouths. Never mind the cat-men or lizard-men or dog-men or people with blue skin and strange, tattoo-like markings or odd brow ridges or pointier ears. Why would an alien look that similar to us?

"Bilateral symmetry is actually a pretty crappy design, when you think about it. Yes, it looks nice and even but what's the point? Why have two sides exactly the same when you could have something completely different on the other side? Even the Daleks figured this one out—they had a sucker arm on one side and a laser on the other. And bipedal? Ridiculous—one good push and we fall over. Why would another world's race evolve with that exact same design flaw? Why would another world's race grow eyes and a nose and a tongue and all the other fiddly bits we have? They wouldn't.

"Living beings evolve in response to their environment. We grew opposable thumbs so we could better grasp objects. Monkeys developed prehensile tails for the same reason. We have eyes because light breaks down into the visible end of the electromagnetic spectrum here.

"But if we had occurred on a completely different world, with different temperatures and topography and flora and fauna, we would have evolved differently. And if that other world had a completely different chemical composition, so would we. All life on Earth is carbon-based, but that wouldn't be the case elsewhere. Life forms could be silicon-based or iron-based or anything else at all. They could have any number of arms and legs—or none at all.

"Perhaps life on other planets evolved without physical form or with no fixed form—perhaps there are aliens who are nothing more than sentient clouds, or who have mutable bodies that can alter to suit the needs of the moment. Maybe they can sail through space unaided, and use stellar radiation for a food source and a sensory array, detecting changes in the radiation the same way bats detect sound waves. Who needs eyes and ears when your entire being resonates? Who needs a distinct brain when your consciousness is spread throughout just like our nerve endings are with us? Why have skin when your form is held together by electrostatic shock and mental control, and can condense or expand at will?

"There are plenty of creatures here on Earth that are so astoundingly different from us that we can barely comprehend them. Try watching an octopus pull itself through a tiny crack in a glass tank sometime, or examine a tobacco hornworm, or look at a praying mantis up close. Then think about how small our planet is compared with the universe as a whole—it's like finding the weirdest shaped M&M in the bag, and then realizing that you're in an entire candy store filled with literally thousands of other kinds of candy, most of which you've never even heard of before. A real alien would be so far from anything we've ever imagined that we would barely be able to comprehend its existence. And we would seem just as completely, bafflingly bizarre to it."

'Somewhere in the universe, there must be, have been, or will be other advanced civilizations. The chances of anyone alive today seeing or even communicating with them are very slim. However, such problems should not stop us from imagining what they might be like.

"First, a real alien is bilaterally symmetrical, endothermic with excellent manipulative abilities, and has a hard container for a brain.

"Eyes? Of course. You have to see to build a civilization. The squid has better eyes than we do, and the eye seems to have evolved separately a few times at least. Our alien will have eyes that may only resemble ours superficially. A lens and iris are almost an absolute requirement. The whites do not have to be white. Neither does the iris have to be colored in anything like the way ours are. How many eyes? One just will not do. Inability to perceive distance will lead to rapid extinction. Unless you can find a good reason for it, extra eyes create evolutionary baggage and will not persist, spiders not withstanding. Eyes being important, they will be recessed and capable of being covered, as necessary. Our aliens are not likely to be bug-eyed, although we cannot totally rule that out.

"Nose? An alien must have the means to breathe. It must be symmetrical. The nose does not have to be in the middle of a face, although that is convenient for some purposes such as sharing the air pipe with a mouth for times of exertion. You can imagine other arrangements.

"Mouth? Must have means for ingestion of food. All large animals have some means to capture and swallow food. Some masticate it; others do not. Teeth are rather common on Earth but other systems of eating are possible. The problem is that plants and animals have been in an evolutionary war for millenia. We inherit the outcome of that war. Teeth were necessary to eat plants that became more fibrous, an evolutionary reaction to being eaten. There are other ways to sheer off plant food, such as what birds do. They 'chew' in their gizzards.

"Legs? Most certainly. Other means of locomotion will be relatively slow and be relegated to armored animals and of those living in holes. Neither of these lifestyles will lead naturally to greater intelligence. How many legs? In our case, we adapted the forelegs for manipulation from animals with four legs. No land animals with endoskeletons have more legs. The implication is that aliens with two legs are more likely than those with four.

"Fur? Hair? Feathers? Scales? Something else truly alien? The skin covering could be anything that makes sense. Real feathers are not so likely. Because feathers are used for flight, brains will be small. Scales are unlikely because they are particularly well-adapted for ectotherms, although a scaly sort of skin might be possible. Fur versus hair is hard to sort out because of my inherent bias. Fur has good reasons for being that are not related to intelligence. If furry, our aliens probably have short fur.

"Head? If you define head as a bony enclosure for the brain as well as the location for eyes, nose, and mouth, then it's likely. The nose could be located above or below the mouth. Above works better for swimming, but that's not a strict evolutionary requirement.

"Neck? Not at all necessary. Useful to swivel the head, but you can imagine other ways to look around. It's an annoying place for big cats to grab and strangle you with their powerful mouths.

"Arms? You must have something with which to manipulate things. Tentacles are unlikely because of their inability to perform fine manipulation. They usually have suckers on them and a very different purpose than toolmaking. The number of joints could be greater, and the direction of bend could be different.

"Fingers? You must have a way to grab tightly and a way to pick up small objects and twist and turn them. Two fingers are probably too few. Five is overkill. Three or four (as cartoon characters have) is about right. Our three joints in our fingers is about right. One would not do. Two, as with our thumbs, is unlikely."

"An octopus is a good example of an advanced-alien analogue on Earth. Octopuses are quite (probably human-level) intelligent and live in a totally alien environment (compared with ours). Evolution has had to find novel solutions to the pressures they're under—pressures completely different than those that shaped mammals on land.

"Dolphins and chimpanzees are extremely close to us—we're all mammals. The last common ancestor for humans and dolphins was around 100 million years ago, and for humans and chimpanzees was about 10 million years ago. Most of the evolutionary choices leading to intelligence were probably made before the splits occurred. The last common ancestor between mammals and octopuses is much, much further back in time, probably 800 million years ago.

"Aliens with advanced technology would have to be on land (technology needs fire to kick-start it). What we would expect in order to develop a technology comparable to ours? Hands with fingers (for delicate, precise manipulation) are important. At least two legs are needed for locomotion. If it has four legs, think centaurs—you need those hands to build things.

"You need binocular vision to judge distance (to prey). Elevated head to see predators. Eyes near the brain to reduce the time delay (or degradation) of the visual signal. Sound and smell sensors (ears and nose). Your survival chances improve if you can use all of the ways you can to detect food, mates, and predators. Living in an atmosphere means sounds and smells will arrive before the stinky, noisy predator."

"Three things are generally intrinsic about human beings: 1. We think we know everything. 2. We think everything is about us. 3. We need things to be about us in order to care. Thus, in most of our stories about aliens, the aliens come because of us (be it to kill, enslave, or study us) or to take things that are dear to us. We are also usually the first who make contact with the aliens, and they almost always look something like us or like something familiar to us.

"I believe aliens exist. However, I don't pay much mind to the little-green-men mythology. I don't think aliens have to be humanoid, carbon-based, or even alive by our definition of alive. Human beings aren't made to survive in space. If aliens arrive on Earth here, it means they have survived in space and have the means to adapt to our atmosphere. I think it highly possible that they'll be nothing like us.

"In my novel Lagoon, the aliens that show up in Lagos, Nigeria, are fundamental shape-shifters with consciousness and control all the way to the molecular level, and their molecules do not resemble or operate like anything Earth-based. They use matter (whatever that matter is and wherever it comes from) and they adapt to wherever they are. And their wants and needs and methods of going about their business are wholly foreign to humans.

"I don't see why aliens couldn't be microscopic, only be seen at wavelengths beyond human detection, be built in a way so outside of human understanding that to look upon them would cause one to faint. I don't think aliens have been, are, will be what we are expecting."

"Aliens with pointy ears and bumpy foreheads are a way for Hollywood to save money by applying prostheses to human beings and to move forward with the plot. It seems strange to think the truly alien would look anything at all like us. And yet there are examples of parallel evolution in nature: the eye of the octopus being identical to that of a human being a famous one. Some speculate that an alien evolved to have a civilization similar to ours would have a similar form.

"We have examples of aliens right here on Earth to look toward that might give us a hint of what an alien intelligence would look like. Octopuses and squids exhibit startlingly intelligent responses and learning, and the form of their bodies is designed for an environment alien to our own. Tentacles and large brains seems to be a fantastic form for low-gravity or aquatic environments. Creatures that may communicate by flashing colors across their skin. Science fiction has a long history of exploring hard-to-understand tentacled horrors.

"An article about the gears found in plant hoppers' legs has gotten a lot of attention online. The idea of biology and evolution already using cogs leads one to wonder what else might exist. Minds that evolved silicon circuitry through natural selection? Steampunk, radiation-powered life forms that we couldn't even approach? Thought experiments can get rather mind-boggling. Nature always surprises.

"Talking and reacting to alien behavior will be the hardest. We already struggle to keep patient enough to understand other cultures and differences within our own human cultures. Dolphins, octopuses, elephants—these all seem to be higher-order thinkers, yet we cannot communicate well with them nor do we particularly share the planet well. What will an alien encounter be like? How will their actions seem?

"In short, I'd assume things would be easily misunderstood, as we all come with an existing load of baggage about such an encounter. And their actions will depend a great deal on the environs they come from, and the nature of their groups. Are they solitary? Or prefer herds or small bands? What would be the mind of an intelligent predator who normally lives alone? If we do find other life, I have to assume that it would hint that a great deal of life is possible. We may encounter all of the above. Creatures like us, and yet so different from us we can barely understand them. It might be a plethora of minds and body types, much like the world is filled now with a wide variety of intelligences and forms. It might be quite overwhelming . . ."

UFO expert says mystery surrounding extraterrestrial life is close to being unravelled

UFO expert Chase Kloetzke is in Melbourne from the US for the Edge of Reality Ufology conference. Picture: Brendan Francis

The leading American UFO investigator said mainstream science had opened up the door for ufologists to investigate physical traces of alien activity.

But she said it would take a big event such as Victoria’s Westall case in 1966 to reveal the full scope of the paranormal world — not the government revealing what it knows.

‘GOVERNMENTS KNOW UFOs ARE VISITING US’

“I believe 100 per cent the government is covering up UFO activity,” she told the Sunday Herald Sun.

They are walking among us International UFO Congress gathers

“One of the theories behind this is that they figured humanity couldn’t handle the truth.

“But eventually things will filter down.

Do you think we are alone in the universe? Have your say below.

“Most of us, as ufologists, feel we are coming up to a tipping point.

“Ten years ago I was the crazy lady down the road who investigated UFOs, and now people are actually standing up and listening.

“It’s not going to be the government coming clean. It’s going to take an event. But we are closer to getting answers.”

Ms Kloetzke, deputy director of the world’s biggest UFO organisation, Mutual UFO Network, is among the top minds of ufology who have gathered in Melbourne for the Edge of Reality Ufology conference.

About 130 people attended the conference at the Jasper Hotel in the CBD.

It is her first time in Australia and she said she feels like she is “in heaven” as the country is known for some of the most anomalous cases.

She said Australia was unique with its big open spaces that seemed to attract more UFOs.

Ms Kloetzke, author of Admissible: The Field Manual for investigating UFOs, Paranormal Activity and Strange Creatures, as well as children’s book Are Aliens Really Real, said UFO sightings and alien encounters were “escalating” with about 900 cases a month reported worldwide.

“’Those are just the citizens of the world that are reporting it — there’s many others who don’t,” she said.

She had one question for Victorians: “Who thinks we’re absolutely here all by ourselves?”

TOP 5 VICTORIAN CASES

The Westall UFO encounter

April 6, 1966

Playing on the sports oval at Westall High School in Clayton South, more than 200 students and teachers described witnessing a grey saucer-shaped craft with a slight purple hue fly over about 10.30am. The UFO shot over some pine trees, where it is believed to have briefly landed, leaving a mark on the ground.

The Valentich disappearance

October 21, 1978

Frederick Valentich, 20, disappeared while piloting a small aircraft over the Bass Straight from Moorabbin Airport to King Island in Tasmania. In his last radio calls, he described an unusual object hovering over the top of him. No trace of him or his Cessna was found.

The Rosedale water tank mystery

September 30, 1980

A 54-year-old farmhand on a property 8km from Rosedale in the Gippsland region woke at 1am to a screeching noise — and the cattle clearly distressed — and went outside to investigate. He described a dome object with a white top and orange underneath with circular windows or lights, hovering around a 10,000-gallon open-topped water tank. The UFO landed beside the tank, leaving a ring mark on the grass. The next day the full tank was mysteriously empty.

The Burkes Flat “bent headlight beams”

April 4, 1966

Around 8pm, Ron Sullivan witnessed an unusual object putting on a light display in a paddock while driving along Dunolly-St Arnaud Rd, near Bourkes Flat in central Victoria. He said his car’s headlights bent towards the UFO, causing him to veer off the road and almost hit a tree. Two days later, another driver died after hitting the tree Mr Sullivan had swerved to miss. Researchers ponder if that driver experienced the same phenomena.

The Kelly Cahill encounter

August 8, 1993

Mother Kelly Cahill was driving home with her husband and three children in the Dandenong foothills, near Belgrave, when they noticed the lights of a rounded craft with windows just after midnight. She recalls her whole family being abducted by aliens and how they controlled their minds and performed embarrassing procedures on them.

Is dit een gecrashte UFO? Vreemde vorm op Google Maps stelt speurneuzen voor raadsel

Internetspeurneuzen zijn ervan overtuigd dat in de sneeuw op de Zuidpool de resten van een gecrashte UFO kunnen worden gezien op Google Maps.

De coördinaten van de crashplek werden veelvuldig gedeeld op sociale media nadat een Russische UFO-enthousiasteling ze op internet had gezet. Als je de plek zelf wilt bekijken, voer je in Google Maps de volgende coördinaten in: 80°34’08.4″S 30°05’19.3″W.

Valentin Degretev zei op een Russische sociale mediasite dat het object lijkt op een ‘klassieke’ vliegende schotel. “Het is zeker geen poolstation of vliegtuig, omdat er geen vliegtuigen of helikopters zijn die zo groot zijn,” zei hij. Degterev schat dat het object een doorsnee heeft van zo’n 62 meter.

Het bevroren landschap van Antarctica strekt zich uit over een gebied van 14 miljoen kilometer. Velen geloven dan ook dat mensen er nooit achter komen als er daadwerkelijk een UFO zou landen op de Zuidpool. Ruwweg 98 procent van het continent is bedekt met een dikke laag ijs.

Anderen zijn sceptisch over de claim dat de vorm een gecrashte UFO is. Het zou bijvoorbeeld een scheur in het ijs of een kloof kunnen zijn.

VIDEO: België in de ban van vreemd cirkelvormig object

Een automobilist heeft op dinsdag 18 augustus boven De Pinte in de Belgische provincie Oost-Vlaanderen een cirkelvormig object vastgelegd met zijn dashcam. Het Belgische UFO-meldpunt is op zoek naar getuigen van de voorlopig onverklaarbare UFO-melding.

“We kregen deze oproep vorige week binnen en konden na verder onderzoek besluiten dat het object een diameter van één meter heeft. We dachten onmiddellijk aan een luchtballon, maar wie laat die nu op om half 10 in de ochtend. Een drone kan, maar daarvoor verplaatst het object zich waarschijnlijk te traag,” zegt Frederick Deleare van het meldpunt.

Het object bewoog van het zuidwesten naar het noordoosten. De beelden van de dashcam zijn van goede kwaliteit en daarom wil het UFO-meldpunt dit geval grondiger onderzoeken. Om dit vreemde verschijnsel te kunnen verklaren zijn er meer getuigenissen of beelden nodig.

Heb je dit object gezien of op video vastgelegd, dan kun je dat hier laten weten.

“Ik weet 100 procent zeker dat de overheid UFO-activiteit onder de pet houdt”

Een vooraanstaande UFO-expert heeft gezegd dat het mysterie rond buitenaards leven spoedig zal worden ontrafeld. Chase Kloetzke zei dat de wetenschappelijke gemeenschap de deur heeft geopend voor het onderzoek naar fysieke sporen van aliens. Dat meldt de Australische krant Sunday Herald Sun.

Om de omvang van de paranormale wereld te onthullen moet er volgens Kloetzke iets gebeuren zoals in Westall in de Australische staat Victoria in 1966. Op 6 april dat jaar waren meer dan 200 leerlingen en leraren van twee scholen getuige van een onbekend vliegend object dat in een weiland landde.

Kantelpunt

“Ik weet 100 procent zeker dat de overheid UFO-activiteit onder de pet houdt,” zei de plaatsvervangend directeur van MUFON, de grootste UFO-organisatie ter wereld. “Eén van de redenen hiervoor zou zijn dat ze denken dat de mensheid de waarheid niet kan accepteren.”

De expert zei dat het voor de meeste ufologen is alsof we een kantelpunt naderen. Ze zei verder dat ze 10 jaar geleden werd gezien als een gekke vrouw die onderzoek deed naar UFO’s, maar nu luisteren mensen aandachtig en gaan ze zelf op onderzoek uit.

Grote gebeurtenis

Kloetzke legde uit dat we weinig van de overheid hoeven te verwachten en dat er een grote gebeurtenis moet plaatsvinden. De mensheid komt steeds dichter in de buurt van de waarheid, zei ze. Overal ter wereld zijn er mensen die claimen dat aliens echt bestaan.

Volgens Kloetzke, die in Melbourne was voor de Edge of Reality Ufology-conferentie, ‘escaleert’ het aantal waarnemingen van UFO’s en aliens. Wereldwijd worden er 900 gevallen per maand gemeld. “En dat zijn alleen nog maar burgers die er melding van maken, veel anderen doen dat niet,” zei ze.

Graham Hancock: “Hoogontwikkelde beschaving op Antarctica weggevaagd door komeet”

De Britse oud-journalist Graham Hancock suggereert in zijn nieuwe boek Magicians of the Gods dat een komeet met een doorsnee van 30 kilometer binnen 15 jaar de aarde kan verwoesten.

Hancock, voormalig correspondent voor The Economist, zegt dat zijn boek bewijst dat een hoogontwikkelde beschaving tussen 11.600 en 12.800 jaar geleden is weggevaagd door stukken van dezelfde komeet.

De auteur claimt dat de aarde in 2030 in het spoor van dezelfde komeet, genaamd Encke, terecht zou kunnen komen. Delen van de komeet draaien nog altijd in een baan die de omloopbaan van de aarde doorkruist, aldus Hancock.

Gevaar

“Astronomen menen dat een fragment van de oorspronkelijk komeet verborgen blijft en een gevaar vormt voor al het leven op aarde,” schreef hij. Hancock schreef 20 jaar geleden in Fingerprints of the Gods dat een oude beschaving, waar ook inwoners van het legendarische Atlantis deel van uitmaakten, bijna 13.000 jaar geleden door een komeet is vernietigd.

Het boek ging 9 miljoen keer over de toonbank en werd een bestseller. In het vervolg, Magicians of the Gods, zegt hij de smoking gun te hebben die bewijst dat hij al die tijd gelijk heeft gehad. “In 1995 schreef ik een boek over alle tekenen die in de richting van een verloren beschaving wezen,” zei hij. “Er miste nog een smoking gun. Die hebben we nu.”

Astronomie en wiskunde

“Een aantal papers in tijdschriften leveren bewijs dat de aarde 12.800 jaar geleden daadwerkelijk is geraakt door een komeet, precies zoals ik in mijn boek schreef,” zei Hancock.

Hij claimt dat Antarctica bijna 13.000 jaar geleden werd geraakt door een komeet. Op dat moment, duizenden jaren voordat het wiel werd uitgevonden, zou daar al een hoogontwikkelde beschaving hebben geleefd. Hancock zegt dat onze kennis over astronomie en wiskunde afkomstig is van die ‘verloren’ beschaving.

Astronoom: “Asteroïden in ons zonnestelsel kunnen buitenaardse ruimteschepen zijn”

Aliens die geen thuisplaneet meer hebben kunnen zich in enorme ruimteschepen schuilhouden in de asteroïdengordel. Dat zegt astrobioloog Duncan Forgan van de Universiteit van St Andrews in Schotland, zo meldt de Britse Daily Express.

Sommige objecten die we detecteren in de planetoïdengordel kunnen in werkelijkheid enorme UFO’s zijn, aldus Forgan. Hij voegde toe dat pas een klein deel van de Melkweg is verkend. Bovendien is daarbij alleen gezocht naar radiosignalen.

Voetbalveld

Forgan wil de zoektocht uitbreiden en zoeken naar tekenen van buitenaardse vervuiling, ruïnes op verlaten planeten en mijnbouw door robots op asteroïden. Hij liet een afbeelding zien van een klein vierkantje in een voetbalveld, om aan te geven dat we nog maar een piepklein deel van het sterrenstelsel hebben onderzocht.

“Dit vierkant is slechts een fractie van de Melkweg,” zei hij. “We hebben ons eigen zonnestelsel nog niet eens in kaart gebracht. Er kunnen ruimteschepen in het zonnestelsel zijn, waarvan we dachten dat het asteroïden waren.”

Niet voldoende

Forgan is lid van een Brits wetenschapspanel dat pleit voor een uitgebreidere zoektocht naar aliens. Hij denkt niet dat wij als mensen zo bijzonder zijn en dat er andere rassen in het heelal leven.

De astronoom deed zijn uitspraken tijdens het British Science Festival aan de Universiteit van Bradford. Het SETI Institute zoekt vooral naar radiosignalen, maar volgens veel wetenschappers is dat niet voldoende.

Sterrenmens uit Zuid-Afrikaanse grot kan geschiedenis van de mensheid herschrijven

Onderzoekers hebben fossielen gevonden van een nieuwe mensensoort. De ‘homo naledi’ zou zijn soortgenoten na hun dood ook hebben begraven, een kenmerk dat eerder alleen aan de mens werd toegeschreven.

De eerste fossielen werden eind 2013 opgegraven in een grot op 50 kilometer van de Zuid-Afrikaanse hoofdstad Johannesburg. Ze bevonden zich in de meest onderzochte vallei op het Afrikaanse continent, aldus hoofdonderzoeker Lee Berger van de Universiteit van Witwatersrand. Het gaat om de grootste fossielenvondst van mensachtigen ooit.

De verzameling fossielen bestaat uit meer dan 1500 botten die toebehoorden aan tenminste 15 personen. Volwassenen werden 1,5 meter lang en wogen gemiddeld 45 kilo. De nieuwe mensensoort is homo naledi gedoopt, naar de grot ‘Rising Star’ waarin de fossielen zijn gevonden. Naledi betekent ster in de lokale taal Sesotho.

De soort had een klein brein, ongeveer zo groot als een sinaasappel en met een inhoud van 500 kubieke centimeter (ruim twee keer zo klein als dat van de moderne mens). Hoogleraar Fred Spoor van University College London sprak van een spectaculaire en bijzondere vondst.

Het is volgens de wetenschappers moeilijk te zeggen in welke periode ze precies op aarde rondliepen omdat de 1550 botresten geïsoleerd lagen. Wel kunnen ze zeggen dat de resten zeker meer dan 2,5 miljoen jaar oud zijn. Het onderzoek is verschenen in het tijdschrift eLife.

Vliegtuig Ryanair breekt landing af nadat vliegtuigspotters een UFO waarnemen

Een toestel van Ryanair dat onderweg was van Dublin naar Liverpool, heeft een noodlanding moeten maken vanwege een UFO. De Boeing wilde gaan landen toen er iets in de lucht werd waargenomen dat mogelijk gevaarlijk was voor het vliegtuig. Dat meldt de Liverpool Echo.

Passagiers zeiden dat ze van de piloot te horen kregen dat het mogelijk om een drone ging. Een woordvoerder van de luchthaven in Liverpool liet echter weten dat er na inspectie niets gevonden is.

“We dachten dat we iets zagen vliegen op enkele kilometers van de luchthaven,” zei Robin Tudor. “De Boeing kwam op dat moment aanvliegen en onze standaardprocedure schrijft voor dat het vliegtuig dan moet uitwijken.”

Het toestel landde uiteindelijk veilig om 22.47 uur lokale tijd. Volgens alien-jagers is er geen drone, maar een UFO bij het vliegtuig in de buurt geweest. Vliegtuigspotters maakten namelijk melding van een ongeïdentificeerd vliegend object boven de rivier de Mersey.

Afgelopen jaar werden vluchten omgeleid nadat een UFO was gezien in de buurt van het vliegveld van de Duitse stad Bremen. Op de radar verscheen steeds kort een object, maar de luchtverkeersleiders wisten niet wat het was. Met een politiehelikopter werd zonder succes het gebied afgespeurd. Na drie uur verdween de UFO van de radar.

VIDEO: Mysterieuze vuurbal valt uit de lucht in hartje Bangkok

Inwoners van de Thaise hoofdstad Bangkok werden gisteren tijdens de ochtendspits opgeschrikt door een mysterieuze vuurbal met een spoor van rook. Op diverse plaatsen legden mensen vast hoe de vuurbal voorbijschoot.

Rond 08.41 uur lokale tijd zagen veel inwoners van de stad hoe de vuurbal door de lucht vloog en vervolgens ontplofte. Het verschijnsel veroorzaakte paniek omdat op de sociale media de meest wilde en uiteenlopende geruchten werden verspreid.

Er werd onder meer gezegd dat het ging om een vliegtuigcrash of een helikopter die was geraakt door een lichtbol. Een andere getuige liet weten dat het om een brandende ballon zou gaan. Er werd ook nog gedacht aan stukken van een oude satelliet.

Volgens de Thaise autoriteiten ging het om een meteoor. “Het is met enige zekerheid een grote rots die in onze atmosfeer is opgebrand,” zei Phil Plait, oud-lid van het Hubble Space Telescope Team van NASA. Zo’n vallende ster komt met een enorme snelheid de atmosfeer van de aarde binnen waardoor er een lichtspoor ontstaat.

De meteoor was waarschijnlijk al helemaal opgebrand voordat hij de grond kon bereiken. Voor zover bekend heeft de vuurbal geen schade aangericht. In 2013 raakten tenminste 1200 mensen gewond toen een meteoriet insloeg bij de Russische stad Tsjeljabinsk.

Wetenschappers zoeken naar tekenen dat we in een multiversum vol parallelle universa leven

Al jaren wordt het idee dat we in een multiversum – bestaande uit een oneindig aantal parallelle universa – leven gezien als een reële mogelijkheid.

Misschien ken je Schrödingers kat, een experiment uit de kwantummechanica. Een kat wordt in een doos opgesloten met een buisje waarin een radioactieve stof zit. Vervolgens wacht je een uur. Als er gedurende dat uur een deeltje van de stof vervalt, zal een sensor de straling opmerken en met een hamertje een flesje gif stukslaan. Dat kat zou dan sterven. Het is echter ook mogelijk dat er geen deeltje vervalt, waardoor het flesje gif intact blijft en de kat in leven blijft. Je weet niet welke van de twee scenario’s waar is, totdat je de deksel van de doos optilt.

Volgens de bizarre wetten van de kwantummechanica is de kat, zolang je de deksel niet optilt, zowel dood als levend. Wat als alle mogelijke scenario’s los van elkaar bestaan in verschillende universa van een multiversum?

Versnelde expansie

Het heelal maakte in het begin een korte periode van versnelde expansie door, kosmologische inflatie genoemd. Deze hypothese voorspelt dat er andere delen van het universum moeten zijn die nog steeds versneld uitdijen. Door de kwantumfluctuaties van de ruimtetijd bereiken sommige delen van het heelal nooit het eindstadium van inflatie.

Sommige delen kunnen zich afsplitsen en andere universa vormen, die ook weer andere universa kunnen vormen, enzovoorts. Het gevolg is een oneindig aantal universa. Door dit scenario te combineren met de snaartheorie ontstaat de mogelijkheid dat in al deze universa verschillende natuurkundige wetten gelden.

Snaartheorie

In de snaartheorie worden deeltjes voorgesteld als minuscule, trillende snaartjes. De manier waarop zo’n snaartje trilt, bepaalt wat voor deeltje het is. Daarmee is het een theorie die alle deeltjes en krachten herleidt tot één principe. Deze theorie vereist tenminste zes of zeven extra ruimtelijke dimensies. Die zouden op heel kleine schaal zijn opgerold, waardoor we er gewoonlijk niets van merken.

Universa die worden voorgesteld door de snaartheorie en inflatie bestaan in dezelfde fysieke ruimte en kunnen elkaar overlappen en met elkaar in botsing komen. Die botsingen laten mogelijk sporen achter waar we naar kunnen zoeken.

Dat is precies wat wetenschappers momenteel doen. Ze zoeken ernaar in de kosmische achtergrondstraling en in de vorm van zwaartekrachtsgolven, fluctuaties in de kromming van de ruimtetijd. Dergelijke golven kunnen het bestaan van inflatie bewijzen en ondersteunen daarmee het idee van een multiversum.

Wetenschappers ontdekken tweede Stonehenge: “Grootste prehistorische monument in Groot-Brittannië”

Het mysterie van Stonehenge wordt nog een stuk vreemder. Wetenschappers hebben op drie kilometer van het monument nog eens 100 grote blokken gevonden die begraven liggen onder de grond.

De BBC spreekt van ‘het grootste prehistorische monument in Groot-Brittannië’. De belangrijke vondst is zondag bekendgemaakt door wetenschappers van de Universiteit van Bradford. Aan de rand van de Durrington Walls, een muur van aarde, vonden ze zo’n 100 stenen op ongeveer een meter onder de grond.

Stonehenge II (Ludwig Boltzmann Institute)

Het gaat om reusachtige stenen die tot wel 4,5 meter groot zijn. De stenen, die tot nu toe ‘verloren waren voor de archeologie’, staan niet in een cirkel opgesteld, maar liggen in een rij. Gedacht wordt dat de stenen net als bij Stonehenge een religieuze betekenis hebben. De lijn komt namelijk overeen met de baan van de zon tijdens de winterzonnewende. Stonehenge is ook gebouwd naar de stand van de zon. Tijdens de zomer- en winterwende schijnt de zon precies tussen de stenen door.

De wetenschappers staan voor een raadsel. “De vindplaats is helemaal nieuw voor ons en ook de schaal is ongekend,” zeiden ze. “We denken niet dat er ooit al zoiets is ontdekt in de wereld.”

De stenen zijn gevonden met behulp van radartechnologie. Zo’n 4500 jaar geleden bevond zich een belangrijke nederzetting in het gebied. Vandaag de dag is alleen nog de enorme aarden wal zichtbaar.
