India: Massive UFO Hovering Behind Clouds
India: Massive UFO Hovering Behind Clouds
Stunned eyewitnesses believed they had spotted a large circular object floated above them that looked like the craft from an alien movie.
One of the witnesses Lincoln Liba said that the massive disc surfaced from within a cloud and as a rainbow appeared. In one of theseveral pictures taken, one boy is seen pointing up at the object.
Residents and students in Imphal, India claimed to have seen the UFO last week.
Local weather experts explain that it isn’t a UFO but a lenticular cloud, which is a formation of clouds that usually mistaken for UFOs in the past as it often appears in an almost oval-shaped structure.
But other witnesses argue that the thing appears solid.
An identical mothership-look emerged from the clouds in a photo that was allegedly taken from Brazil and uploaded two days ago.
Other pictures also featured the same image said to have taken in different parts of the world, including above a heavy traffic.
The same image was also found in pictures released by a news agency this week, which were apparently captured in Heilongtan Reservoir in Sichuan Province, China.
Other online viewers suggested that the UFO in the Indian images was created using digital editing software or a mobile phone app
L'étoile semble clignoter. Par intermittence et sans véritable régularité, la lumière émise par l'astre faiblit. Que pourraient expliquer ces variations ? La première hypothèse des scientifiques était le passage d'une exoplanète en orbite autour de l'étoile. Mais l'hypothèse a finalement été balayée devant l'irrégularité du phénomène. Une quantité importante de matière semble circuler tout autour de KIC 8462852, ce qui pourrait aussi s'expliquer par le fait que l'étoile était jeune puisque une étoile en formation est très souvent entourée de disques de poussières et d'autre débris. Mais cette étoile lointaine n'est pas jeune. Si elle était jeune elle serait entourée de poussière qui donnerait encore plus de lumière infra-rouge à observer. Et pourtant quelque chose tourne autour de KIC 8462852...
Un système extraterrestre de panneaux solaires géants ?
Cet amas de matière est récent, sans quoi la gravité aurait déjà fait son oeuvre ou cette étoile aurait déjà absorbé la mystérieuse structure en grandissant. Tabetha Boyajian, diplômée de l'université de Yale a publié un article abordant les différentes hypothèses possibles pour expliquer le phénomène : un impact planétaire, une mer de comètes causée par une autre étoile passant dans ce système étrange... Que des phénomènes extrêmement rares et pourtant l'explication ne semble que relever du domaine de l'exceptionnel.
Jason Wright, un astronome de Penn State University a publié aussi un document suggérant qu'uneimmense structure technologique créée par une civilisation extraterrestre pourrait aussi être à l’origine de ce clignotement stellaire. "Quand Tabetha Boyajian m'a montré ces données, j'étais fasciné par ce que je voyais, c'était fou !", explique-t-il dans les colonnes de The Atlantic. "Des extraterrestres devraient toujours être la dernière hypothèse à considérer mais cela ressemble vraiment à ce qu'une civilisation alien pourrait construire". Ces structures pourraient-être, par exemple, une immense ceinture de panneaux solaire destinés à absorber l'énergie de ce soleil.
Maintenant est venu le temps des vérifications pour l'équipe d'astronomes. Ils souhaitent orienter une grande parabole afin de savoir si l'étoile mystérieuse émettrait des fréquences radio capables d'être émises par des technologies. Seules ces vérifications sont capables d'écarter ces hypothèses ou - peut-être - de confirmer qu'une civilisation digne des plus grands récits terrestres de science-fiction réside à 1.400 années-lumière de nous.
Agents Mulder and Scully may have said 'the truth is out there' in the X Files, but it may instead be buried inside the brains of people who claim they have been abducted by aliens.
Those who believe they have had a close encounter of the so-called 'fourth kind' may suffer from false memories or sleep paralysis, a psychologist has claimed.
A rare form of the condition, which can involve hallucinations or the feeling of being dragged out of bed, may explain 'alien abductions' that people sincerely believe happened but can't remember.
People who believe they have had a close encounter of the so-called 'fourth kind', in which they believe they have been abducted by aliens, (illustrated) may suffer from false memories or sleep paralysis according to a leading psychologist specialising in paranormal beliefs
Writing for The Psychologist, Christopher C French, of Goldsmiths, the University of London, who specialises in the psychology of paranormal belief and experiences, said there are plausible explanations for why people 'see' flying saucers and think they have been abducted.
He noted that most of the people making these claims are clinically sane, but their belief in life in outer space may influence what they see or feel in strange situations.
In 1961, the alien abduction story of Betty and Barney Hill captured the public's imagination.
In 1961, the alien abduction story of Betty and Barney Hill (pictured) captured the public's imagination. They claimed to have spotted a UFO driving from Montreal to New Hampshire and arrived home later than expected, unable to account for the previous two hours
Afterwards, Betty said she dreamt she was medically examined by aliens aboard their spaceship. Years later, when the couple saw psychiatrist Dr Benjamin Simon about marital problems, the revisited the 'events' of the night through hypnotic regression. A signpost showing the site of the 'abduction' is pictured
THE SLEEP PARALYSIS THEORY
Some individuals believe they have experienced alien contact but don't remember.
For example, a person may have 'seen' a UFO then after having a 'missing time' experience, notices bruising on their body.
These are sometimes known as 'bedroom invader' incidents and they may be explained by sleep paralysis - the temporary inability to move for a few seconds just as you are about to fall asleep or wake up.
While this is relatively common and a bit disconcerting, some people suffer from rare forms, which cause them to 'feel' an evil presence or hallucinate by seeing lights or grotesque faces, hearing voices and feeling like they're being dragged out of bed.
Scientists have a relatively good understanding on why sleep paralysis is caused, Fr French explains.
During deep, or rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, which is associated with dreaming, the body's muscles are paralysed, perhaps to stop people acting out their dreams.
Sleep paralysis is caused when the mechanisms controlling the sleep cycle go wrong so it's as if the brain is working and the body has yet to catch up.
This means creepy imagery, perhaps involving aliens, creeps through into a person's wakeful consciousness, perhaps inducing terror or a belief in abduction.

Afterwards, Betty said she dreamt she was medically examined by aliens aboard their spaceship.
Years later, when the couple saw psychiatrist Dr Benjamin Simon about marital problems, they revisited the 'events' of the night through hypnotic regression.
It is now accepted the technique is likely to result in false memories, instead of recovering true ones.
While of course some people may deliberately fabricate stories and hoaxes, Dr French explained there is a growing body of evidence to suggest some people do suffer from false memories.
A 2003 study showed that dissociativity - detachment from immediate surroundings, - absorption and fantasy-proneness, correlate with susceptibility to suffer from false memories, and the tendency to report paranormal experiences.
As the name suggests, having a so-called 'fantasy-prone personality' (FPP) makes a person more likely to have an 'overactive imagination' or 'live in a dream world'.
This means they can have difficulty differentiating between fantasy and reality and may experience hallucinations.
More recent research suggested people claiming to have had a close encounter with an alien tend to score more highly when it comes to fantasy proneness than 'control' people.

...BUT WHAT ABOUT OTHER KINDS OF CLOSE ENCOUNTERS
You'll have heard about 'close encounters of the third kind' thanks to the famous film, but there are actually four types of alien encounters, according to US astronomer J Allen Hynek's classification system.
A close encounter of the first kind is a sighting of a UFO with no supporting evidence. Dr French says 95 per cent are misidentified for no reason, often in poor visibility and people's belief systems dictate what they 'see'.
The second kind refers to a sighting with 'evidence' such as a photo or readings, but they are usually down to hoaxes or human error, such as misinterpreting readings.
The third kind refers to direct contact between aliens and humans. These are usually not taken seriously and tend to be hoaxes sometimes used to raise issues such as the dangers of nuclear war or global warming.
A close encounter of the fourth kind describes an alien 'abduction'. Dr French says hypnotic regression therapy may be responsible for planting false memories in people's brains.
Or sleep paralysis may explain 'bedroom invader' incidents where people wake in the night to see aliens in their bedroom and experience an abduction.

During deep, or rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, which is associated with dreaming, the body's muscles are paralysed, perhaps to stop people acting out their dreams.
Sleep paralysis is caused when the mechanisms controlling the sleep cycle are affected so it's as if the brain is working and the body has yet to catch up.
This means strange imagery, perhaps involving aliens, creeps through into a person's wakeful consciousness, perhaps inducing terror or a belief in abduction.
However, Dr French notes we should be wary of proposing a 'one size fits all' explanation for covering what people think of as alien abductions.
Nigel Watson author of the UFO investigations Manual told, MailOnline: 'The sleep paralysis theory is good for explaining what are called 'bedroom invader' incidents, where people wake in the night to see aliens in their bedroom and experience an abduction.
'It is harder to explain abductions experienced by people who are driving in their car at night or in other circumstances.'
He believes there are four reasons for abduction experiences, which interact and overlap with each other.
'A trigger event that could be a misinterpretation of a celestial or aerial object, geomagnetic phenomena, illusion or hallucination,' he explained.
Dr French notes we should be wary of proposing a 'one size fits all' explanation for covering what people think of as alien abductions. A stock image of a UFO is shown above
'The 'observation' or experience can be due to neurosis or other pathological states of mind, abuse, trauma, stress, sleep paralysis, drugs, sensory deprivation, lack of sleep, dreams, trance states and other psychological factors.'
Alternatively, he said an abduction story can simply be a hoax or invention, or the outcome of hypnotic regression techniques.
He noted: 'The resulting abduction story is told in terms of the UFO mythology, derived from science fiction films and popular culture.'

Le gouvernement Mexicain dévoile des pièces mayas qui prouveraient le contact extraterrestre
Le gouvernement Mexicain dévoile des pièces mayas qui prouveraient le contact extraterrestre
Quel est votre point de vue sur la question? sommes nous réellement visité par des entités? Des anciens dieux et créateurs venus du ciel ?
Ci-dessous, un document significatif pour notre époque ! Le Mexique et l’Amérique du Sud ont été dans un passé relativement éloigné de nous, les hôtes de visiteurs venus d’un autre monde ! Ces visiteurs ont longtemps été qualifiés d’extraterrestres ou des dieux venus du ciel et ont été reconnus comme très savants, mais cruels et même destructeurs !Des écrivains crédibles croient que ce sont eux qui ont enseigné les sacrifices humains à des civilisations encore primitives et naïves par ignorance et grandes craintes de ces voyageurs hors-temps !!
L’âge des artefacts donnerait-il raison à ce verset de l’Ecclésiaste qui nous affirme qu’il n’y a rien de nouveau sous le soleil et que les générations présentes ont simplement oublié ce qui fut (Ecclésiaste: 1:8 à 11).Il ne faut plus se surprendre du dévoilement de ces phénomènes car nous sommes entrés dans les Temps de la Fin et des signes dans le ciel signalés par ces pièces se produisent encore de nos jours et spécialement ces jours-ci avec le passage de la mystérieuse comète ISON qui semble déjouer les meilleurs astronomes de la NASA !!Les Écritures, fidèles à elles-mêmes avaient prédit qu’à la fin des jours alloués à l’administration humaine, Dieu permettrait que les secrets les plus obscurs soient mis en lumière. (Voir Luc 8:17; 12:2; Job 12:22)Pour Pleins Feux sur l’Heure Juste,Pierre J. Gilbert (Marc 13:23)
Pour ceux qui avaient encore des doutes en ce qui a trait aux contacts extraterrestres avec nos anciennes civilisations, cette fois, on ne peut plus clairs ! Le gouvernement mexicain a frappé un grand coup dans l’histoire cachée de l’humanité. Dans la section archéologie oubliée, le pays dévoilera publiquement une série de pièces Mayas découvertes il y environ 80 ans par une équipe du National Institute of Anthropoly and History (INAH) sur le site de Calakmul au Mexique.Ces pièces exceptionnelles ont déjà été présentées l’an dernier et feront l’objet d’un documentaire qui sortira cet automne et qui sera produit par Raul Julia-Levy et réalisé par Juan Carlos Rulfo, le gagnant du festival Sundance 2006 avec son film « In the pit ». Ce documentaire porte le nom provisoire « Revelations of the Mayans 2012 and beyond »
Contact extraterrestre
L’une des pièces maîtresses dévoilées est un disque on ne peut plus explicite. On peut y voir clairement 4 engins, communément appelés OVNIs, dont l’une démontre par une extraction, un astronaute (5) aux commandes de son engin (6). Les deux cercles au centre (1) sont présentement considérés comme une planète à atmosphère de par les deux cercles le suggérant et qu’on peut supposer être la Terre du fait de la présence d’un astre à proximité qui semble être la Lune. À droite, ce qui semble être une comète (3) avec un OVNI (2) dans son sciage, puis, à gauche, un autre engin (4) qui semble intervenir directement sur la comète comme porteur d’un bélier pour frapper la comète.
Une autre pièce fort intrigante semble représenter une éruption solaire. Le soleil envoie un jet de rayon vers la même planète à atmosphère, soit la Terre, événement régulièrement mesuré par la NASA dont vous pouvez suivre l’activité sur le site Space Weather. Trois OVNIs sont présents sur cet artefact dont l’un est directement dans le jet plasmique. Une autre planète est également présente, mais il est difficile de préciser laquelle de notre système solaire.
Cette pièce fort importante semble confirmer les informations que nous recevons par diverses canalisations et qui nous informent du rôle majeur du Soleil dans les événements à venir. Celui-ci est la clé de notre élévation de conscience et cet artefact vieux de 1,300 ans semble nous l’indiquer. Les Maya savaient que nous étions dans le 5e et dernier cycle de 5125 ans d’un plus grand cycle de 26,000 ans. C’est ce que leurs calendriers mesuraient. Par ailleurs, les scientifiques de la NASA prévoient une éruption majeure d’ici la fin de 2013 ce qui corrobore l’ensemble des informations obtenues.
Klauss Dona accompagné du Dr Nassim Haramein ont présenté des photographies de certaines pièces lors d’une conférence au Congresshalle à Saarbrücken en Allemagne, le 11 juin 2011. Vous trouverez au bas de cet article la référence aux extraits de cette conférence.Les autres pièces sont des représentations qui ressemblent étrangement aux petits bonshommes E.T. que nous connaissons.
Contact extraterrestre
Ce qui est encore plus troublant sont les révélations du ministre du Tourisme mexicain, Luis Augusto Garcia Rosado qui déclare que :
La traduction de codex relate les contacts entre les extraterrestres et le peuple Maya.
Des pistes d’atterrissage daté à 3,000 ans ont été trouvées dans la jungle.
Ils possèdent des preuves que les Mayas avaient l’intention de mener cette planète pour des milliers d’années, mais qu’ils ont été forcés de s’échapper après une invasion « d’êtres aux sombres intensions » laissant derrière eux les évidences d’une race hautement avancée.
Je crois qu’à l’approche de la date de fin de cycle du calendrier maya, les autorités mexicaines semblent avoir fait un examen de conscience dont le résultat a été d’informer le public. Je crois également qu’il s’agit du bon choix et que celui-ci devrait servir d’exemple pour les autres nations, je pense, entre autres, aux États-Unis où un changement d’attitude important s’impose.N’oubliez pas que nous sommes à la période des révélations où tout ce qui était caché se dévoile. Les scandales de tout sort au même titre que l’archéologie cachée font partie de ce grand dévoilement. Si vous me demandez mon avis, je vous dirai que nous n’en sommes qu’au début des surprises de cette magnifique période qui s’ouvre à nous. Pour ceux dont ce dévoilement est un véritable choc, je vous implore d’ouvrir votre conscience, car vous n’êtes pas au bout de vos découvertes.

A bizarre space anomaly detected by the Kepler Spacecraft has caught the attention of SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence). The institute recently pointed the Allen Telescope Array system 300 miles northeast of San Francisco at the star, KIC 8462852, to test the hypothesis that the anomaly may be a signature of an extraterrestrial civilization.
“If this pans out it could be the biggest story since the invention of the wheel or the discovery of fire—it’s on that scale,” said Dr. Michio Kaku in a phone interview with the Observer. Dr. Kaku is a professor of physics at City College of New York (CUNY), where he holds the Henry Semat Chair and Professorship in theoretical physics. One of the most renowned figures in science today, Dr. Kaku co-founded the String Field Theory, has authored several New York Times best-selling books, and continues Albert Einstein’s pursuit in formulating a theory on everything.
We are arrogant to think that we are so interesting, extraterrestrial beings would travel thousands of light years just to visit us. We’re just not that interesting.
“Or it could be the biggest dud since the Loch Ness monster, and anything in between. Carl Sagan once said, ‘Remarkable claims require remarkable proof.’ So if it is a sign of an extraterrestrial, we have to be able to identify what this object is. One candidate is its evidence of a type-2 civilization. We’re a type zero; we get our energy from dead plants, oil and coal. Type 1 is planetary; they can control the weather, they can control the entire planet. Type 2 is stellar, they control stars like in Star Trek. Type 3 is galactic like in Star Wars. The energy necessary to drop starlight by 22 percent would qualify this as a type 2 civilization—that is, they can play with stars—however it’s a guess as we simply don’t know if it’s truly a signature of an extraterrestrial civilization or if it’s a wild goose chase. We don’t know.”
The possibility that it could be a signature of another civilization has sparked further debate on the validity of the Fermi Paradox. The Fermi Paradox attempts to explain why we are seemingly alone in the universe. Physicist Enrico Fermi believed that if alien societies exist, one of them would have easily colonized galaxies in the span of a few million years. The time scales for colonizing galaxies is miniscule compared to the age of the universe, so if any existed we would have seen some signs of them.
“Some people say if there are intelligent lifeforms out there, and I think there are, How come they don’t visit us? Why don’t they land on the White House lawn, announce their presence and give us their technology? Well, if you’re walking down a country road and you see an anthill, do you go down to the ants and say I bring you gifts, I bring you trinkets, bead, I bring you nuclear energy, take me to your ant queen? Or do we have this strange urge to step on a few of them? If aliens are so that advanced that they can land on the White House lawn, then we are like ants to them, we have nothing to offer them, so the reason that they don’t announce their existence to us is that we’re boring, they’ve seen it all. We have nothing to offer a civilization that advanced and that’s why I think they don’t visit us. We are arrogant to think that we are so interesting, extraterrestrial beings would travel thousands of light years just to visit us. So that’s why they don’t visit us, we’re just not that interesting.”
Most Surprising discovery so far: Rosetta Spacecraft has found Oxygen on Comet 67/P
Most Surprising discovery so far: Rosetta Spacecraft has found Oxygen on Comet 67/P
Scientists in charge of the Rosetta mission have reported they have found OXYGEN in the atmosphere of comet 67/P Churyumov-Gerasimenko and are calling it one of the most incredible discoveries so far. This finding questions all previous models of solar system formation and can affect the way we search for life elsewhere in the universe.
The European space probe detected oxygen for the first time in September 2014 shortly after entering into orbit around comet 67/P Churyumov-Gerasimenko but it has taken over a year for scientists to disclose the finding since they wanted to make sure they ruled out possible errors before announcing a discovery of this magnitude.
The Space probe has studied the comet for over a year and has found an abundance of gases on the comet, among them Oxygen.
“The first time we saw it, we all went a little bit into denial because molecular oxygen was really not expected to be found on a comet,” said Kathrin Altwegg of the University of Bern in Switzerland, the project leader for ROSINA, the Rosetta Orbiter Spectrometer for Ion and Neutral Analysis.
“It does not sound that spectacular, but it is actually the most surprising discovery we have made so far on 67P,” she said of the comet, which is about to pass the orbit of Mars.
The group of researchers who worked together with scientists from the University Of Michigan (USA), studied the comet and found that the oxygen concentration remains constant over time. Molecular oxygen is common on our planet but extreme rare elsewhere in the universe, as matter of fact, they have only detected molecular oxygen outside of our solar system on two occasion, but never on a comet. Even though on Earth, plants and microbes are responsible for the creation of oxygen, this does not mean that Comet 67P has life on it. However this finding is revolutionary since it breaks a lot of boundaries set by scientists in the distant past and will surely change the way experts look for life in our solar system and universe in general.
Researchers believe that oxygen is present on all parts of comet 67/P and not only on its surface. This is why experts believe that oxygen must have been present on the comet since its creation, that is some 4,600 million years ago, before the solar system formed completely. According to writing in the journal Nature, the oxygen was incorporated into the comet nucleus when the comet was created and has remained ever since.
Professor Kathrin Altwegg, project leader for Rosetta’s Rosina mass spectrometer instrument, said: ‘We had never thought that oxygen could ‘survive’ for billions of years without combining with other substances.’ ‘This evidence of oxygen as an ancient substance will likely discredit some theoretical models of the formation of the Solar System.’
Comet 67/P Churyumov-Gerasimenko has been full of surprises ever since the rosetta mission approached the comet and the Phiale lander made the historic touchdown on the surface of the comet. The strange shape of the comet is what has puzzled researchers ever since they received the first closeup images of the comet. Among other things, researchers have found that Comet 67/P Churyumov-Gerasimenko sings, has oxygen and some of his areas resemble the pyramids of the Giza plateau.
You would think with all the reported sightings, abductions, testimonies, and other potential evidence to the existence of extraterrestrial life that governments around the world would be looking into these matters a bit more seriously. Unfortunately, any information on the subject seems to be labeled as Classified and shut off behind high-security locked doors. Why the secrecy? Could there really be more out there after all? And if there is, why are authorities going out of their way to hide the evidence from the general public? This video details eight reported sightings of UFOs that seem as if they may have actually happened, but just been covered up and written off as a hoax.
Dan Flynn:What will it take for a real investigation and full disclosure on the topic of aliens and UFO activity? Not enough evidence? Apart from my channel, I work in the entertainment business and keep a low profile, as best as I can. It is there that I find most of the intrigue for want of research.
From the mouths of hall of fame personalities that I`ve met, and other entertainers, I`ve come to learn of the reptilians, and so much more that this channel be the result of those very mumbling`s and rumors that I`ve heard `from behind the scenes. I hope you enjoy what I find to be most intriguing based on those very mumbling`s and rumors.
When it comes to where we `sleep and live,`when does the evidence start to convince the general masses into believing that there are aliens under the bed, `currently,`unknown to us. What does it and what will it take to finally get some real answers?
Canadese onderzoekers hebben aan de hand van computermodellen aangetoond dat ons zonnestelsel ooit nog een extra reuzenplaneet had. Zo’n vier miljard jaar geleden werd de planeet door Jupiter uit het zonnestelsel gegooid.
In 2011 opperden astronomen voor het eerst dat er oorspronkelijk vijf gasreuzen waren in plaats van vier (Jupiter, Saturnus, Uranus en Neptunus). Als er altijd maar vier reuzenplaneten zijn geweest in ons zonnestelsel, zou je Mars en de aarde op een andere plek verwachten.
IJsreus
Onderzoekers zijn er naar eigen zeggen achter wat er met die extra planeet is gebeurd. “Alles wijst in de richting van Jupiter,” zei hoofdonderzoeker Ryan Cloutier van de Universiteit van Toronto. Hij spreekt van een interplanetair potje schaken.
De mysterieuze verloren planeet zou de massa hebben gehad van een ijsreus en dus zwaarder zijn geweest dan Saturnus en Jupiter. Hoe kan een lichtere planeet zomaar een ijsreus uit het zonnestelsel gooien?
Zwaartekracht
Als planeten langs elkaar scheren kan één van de objecten zo’n enorme slinger krijgen, dat de zwaartekracht van de zon geen invloed meer kan uitoefenen op het hemellichaam, aldus de onderzoekers.
“We kwamen tot de ontdekking dat Jupiter in staat is geweest om de vijfde reuzenplaneet uit het zonnestelsel te stoten,” zei Cloutier. De onderzoeksresultaten zijn gepubliceerd in The Astrophysical Journal.
Op het vliegveld van Delhi ontstond nogal wat paniek omdat men verschillende keren op de radar een vreemd object had waargenomen. Afgelopen vrijdag werd er dan ook groot alarm geslagen toen dit drie maal op dezelfde dag voor kwam.
Ongeveer rond dezelfde tijd en niet zo gek ver daar vandaan wordt in de staat Uttar Pradesh opnieuw iets geks waargenomen.
Een aantal jonge mensen vierden klaarblijkelijk een verjaardagsfeest in een lokaal park toen plotseling het weer begon te veranderen. Ze bleven toch nog een tijdje en nadat ze de verjaardagstaart hadden aangesneden, besloten ze om nog wat foto’s te maken.
Het was op deze beelden dat er iets merkwaardigs tevoorschijn kwam. Achter de jongeman op de foto zie je duidelijk iets dat lijkt op een groot moederschip zoals we dat al eerder in die regio hebben gezien.
Dit voorval heeft de nodige publiciteit gekregen in India waar ook op televisie aandacht werd besteed aan deze gebeurtenis.
Alhoewel we de taal niet kunnen verstaan, lijkt het alsof in de reportage verschillende mensen vertellen dat ze een onbekend object, een UFO, in de lucht hebben waargenomen.
Door wetenschappers is het verschijnsel uiteraard afgedaan als een vreemde wolk.
Via een lezer (dank!) kregen we de volgende fotocompilatie opgestuurd die zou zijn verschenen op een Facebook pagina.
Het verhaal dat erbij wordt verteld is dat de opnames zijn gemaakt in het Amerikaanse Memphis door vier verschillende mensen onafhankelijk van elkaar.
Deze beelden lijken als twee druppels water op die uit China waar toeristen op een boot een dergelijk object in de lucht zouden hebben gezien. Een object waarvan men later tot de conclusie kwam dat het een photoshop gevalletje was.
Waarmee dus ook de beelden uit Memphis naar de prullenbak kunnen verdwijnen.
Tot nu toe heeft nog niemand kunnen aantonen dat de beelden uit India niet echt zouden zijn. Misschien komt dat nog, maar misschien ook niet en bovendien hebben we daar natuurlijk ook nog de vreemde ervaring van de verkeersleiding op het vliegveld.
Een ding is zeker, met zoveel “grappenmakers” op internet wordt vooral beeldmateriaal met de dag ongeloofwaardiger als het UFO waarnemingen betreft.

Date of photo: Oct 30, 2013 Location of discovery: Flying past Earth Name of discovery: Asteroid 2015 TB145 NASA source:http://www.nasa.gov/feature/halloween-skies-to-include-dead-comet-flyby This skull shaped asteroid is not the only asteroid ever to appear like a face. Remember the singing asteroid that was sending out radio transmissions for the last 20 years? Thats right, comet 67P is in the shape and shoulders of an alien species.
But this this skull is different in that it sends a different message than 67P and its greeting. This sends a warning. A warning that this area of space is controlled with force and they are more than happy to prove it. Earth falls into their territory, so yes, they are a threat to us, however other species try to protect Earth. This species that made this skull is dangerous. These are the dangers humanity will face when exploring space and other worlds. Not all species are kind. Some, like the ones that made this skull, want 100% control or death. Scott C. Waring www.ufosightingsdaily.com
NASA State: The large space rock that will zip past Earth this Halloween is most likely a dead comet that, fittingly, bears an eerie resemblance to a skull. Scientists observing asteroid 2015 TB145 with NASA's Infrared Telescope Facility (IRTF) on Mauna Kea, Hawaii, have determined that the celestial object is more than likely a dead comet that has shed its volatiles after numerous passes around the sun. The belated comet has also been observed by optical and radar observatories around the world, providing even more data, including our first close-up views of its surface. Asteroid 2015 TB145 will safely fly by our planet at just under 1.3 lunar distances, or about 302,000 miles (486,000 kilometers), on Halloween (Oct. 31) at 1 p.m. EDT (10 a.m. PDT, 17:00 UTC). The first radar images of the dead comet were generated by the National Science Foundation's 305-meter (1,000-foot) Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico.
The radar images from Arecibo indicate the object is spherical in shape and approximately 2,000 feet (600 meters) in diameter and completes a rotation about once every five hours. "The IRTF data may indicate that the object might be a dead comet, but in the Arecibo images it appears to have donned a skull costume for its Halloween flyby," said Kelly Fast, IRTF program scientist at NASA Headquarters and acting program manager for NASA's NEO Observations Program. Managed by the University of Hawaii for NASA, the IRTF's 3-meter (10 foot) telescope collected infrared data on the object. The data may finally put to rest the debate over whether 2015 TB145, with its unusual orbit, is an asteroid or is of cometary origin. "We found that the object reflects about six percent of the light it receives from the sun," said Vishnu Reddy, a research scientist at the Planetary Science Institute, Tucson, Arizona. "That is similar to fresh asphalt, and while here on Earth we think that is pretty dark, it is brighter than a typical comet which reflects only 3 to 5 percent of the light. That suggests it could be cometary in origin –- but as there is no coma evident, the conclusion is it is a dead comet.”
A NASA feed from the ISS appears to capture a glowing white craft. A second white UFO has been recorded on video close to the International Space Station (ISS) as well. The live stream from the orbiting base shows strange white light glowing in the blackness of space.
YouTube channel Hidden Cams posted the video online on November 4, 2015. It shows the UFO moves out of shot gradually.
It could be a piece of space debris flying around the cosmos. However, it’s the second time in two days that an object has been caught passing the space station.
In an earlier video, camera operator of NASA pans left and then zooms in on a brilliant light.
The UFO looks like one of the fierce foo fighters described by fighter pilots during World War II. Because of the light’s brightness, the camera can’t focus properly.
The object also seems to track the ISS as it is moving at the same speed behind it. The astronauts on board the ISS look like they are showing concern about the glowing object close to them, so perhaps the public should be too.
However, identifying a UFO as a foo fighter doesn’t offer the public much knowledge about it and who controlling it.
A witness from Texas reported that her 10-year-old daughter photographed an unknown bright light from their moving vehicle while in Frisco. They later discovered that the light was a cylinder-shaped UFO, according to the MUFON Case 71761.
The witness and her daughter were travelling south with their car along Warren Street when the latter snapped a photo of the UFO. According to the reporting witness, her daughter was amazed at the brilliant light coming from that side. Her daughter then took out her phone and took a picture. They quickly realized that the direction wasn’t the spot where natural sunlight came from. When the child looked at her phone, she noticed that the mysterious object was hovering to their right side.
They did not see anything in the sky from a distance in the spot where her daughter captured a UFO in a photograph. However, the lights seemed to be so bright when they got closer. That was the time her daughter took a picture of it.
The reporting witness provided one image with the MUFON report, which was filed on 22 October 2015. Texas MUFON investigator Thomas Diamond looked into the case and closed it as Unknown.
NASA Wetenschappers van de Amerikaanse ruimteorganisatie NASA hebben het mysterie van de verdwenen atmosfeer van Mars opgelost. Het is de zon die van Mars de dorre, koude planeet heeft gemaakt die ze nu is.
Sinds de ontdekking dat er ooit op Mars veel water aanwezig was, heeft de NASA last van marskoorts. Een jaar geleden heeft de Amerikaanse satelliet Maven de planeet bereikt en stuurt sindsdien informatie door die nieuwe inzichten geeft over de geschiedenis van de rode planeet.
Wetenschappers gaan er van uit dat Mars vroeger een erg dikke atmosfeer met veel koolstofdioxide (CO2) had. De planeet zou daardoor veel warmer zijn geweest dan vandaag de dag. Nu is Mars een grote koude, droge woestijn.
Zonnestormen
De atmosfeer met de CO2 is waarschijnlijk grotendeels weggeblazen door grote uitbarstingen van de zon. NASA komt tot deze bevinding nadat Maven eerder dit jaar een grote zonnestorm vastlegde.
In tegenstelling tot de aarde heeft Mars geen magnetisch veld om zijn atmosfeer te beschermen, waardoor die kwetsbaar is voor de ultravioletstraling van de zon en ontploffingen van gas en magnetische deeltjes die vrijkomen van de zon tijdens zonnestormen. Op 8 maart kon Maven vastleggen hoe zo'n storm delen van de atmosfeer van Mars wegblies. Die uitbarsting leidde tot dramatische pieken in het aantal zuurstof- en koolstofdioxide-ionen die de ruimte werden ingeblazen.
Deze bevindingen kunnen wetenschappers helpen te begrijpen hoe Mars van een eens waterrijke, warme wereld, waar misschien zelfs leven mogelijk was, transformeerde tot de dorre woestijn die de planeet vandaag is.
"De belangrijkste vraag die we willen beantwoorden is of het klimaat van Mars veranderde door een verlies in de ruimte of door een ander proces", zegt hoofdonderzoeker van Maven Bruce Jakosky van de universiteit van Colorado. "Door te berekenen hoeveel gas er verloren is gegaan in de ruimte, hopen we te kunnen vaststellen of het om een belangrijk proces gaat."
Bovenstaande video legt grafisch uit hoe zonnestormen de atmosfeer van Mars konden wegblazen.
Noorderlicht
Een andere vaststelling van Maven is dat er op Mars een soort noorderlicht te zien is. Dat 'aura' wordt wellicht veroorzaakt door het magnetische veld in de korst van de planeet, in tegenstelling tot de magnetische polen van de aarde.

Special Reports
Astronauts Saw UFOs
NASA astronauts, Frank Borman left flying with James Lovell (of Apollo 13 fame right), and William Anders center emerging from the dark side of the moon during their historic first circumlunar mission apparently saw a UFO.
On December 25, 1968, “Santa Claus” was the Apollo-8, mission code used if sighting a strange object such as a UFO.
The mission took the famous Earthrise photo of the Earth just above the Moon’s horizon.
Millions of people were listening when Frank Lovell transmits to Houston.
Apollo 8: Christmas at the Moon
Four hours after entering orbit, another SPS burn—this time thankfully shorter at just 11 seconds—adjusted Apollo 8’s path around the Moon into a near-perfect 69-mile circle. Then, at 10:37 a.m. EST on 24 December, the astronauts became the first humans to witness “Earthrise” from behind the lunar limb. Borman was in the process of turning the spacecraft,
when all at once Anders yelled: “Oh my God! Look at that picture over there.” It would become a running, though light-hearted, competition among the crew over who took the “Earthrise Picture,” which has since become world-famous: a shot of the Home Planet, a pretty blue-and-white marble, rising in the void above the Moon’s grey-brown surface. It was Anders who snapped one of the most iconic images of the Space Age. In perhaps no other image has the beauty, fragility, and loneliness of Earth been captured with more meaning.
The crew entered lunar orbit on Christmas Eve, December. 24, 1968. That evening, the astronauts held a live broadcast, showing pictures of the Earth
Millions around the world were watching and listening as the Apollo 8 astronauts – Frank Borman, Jim Lovell and Bill Anders – became the first humans to orbit another world. It seemed inevitable, after thousands of years of watching and wondering about the Moon, that humanity’s first visit would be commemorated in a spiritual way. Before the launch, Borman, Lovell, and Anders had discussed this issue at length with friends and concluded that they would read the story of Creation from the first 10 verses of Genesis. During their ninth orbit, on their second live telecast from the Moon, they read it. “We are now approaching lunar sunrise, and for all the people back on Earth, the crew of Apollo 8 has a message that we would like to send to you.”
“‘In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. ‘And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. ‘ And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. ‘And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.‘”[4]
Jim Lovell
“‘And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. ‘And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. ‘And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. ‘And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.’”[4]
Frank Borman
“‘And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so. ‘And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.’”
“And from the crew of Apollo 8, we close with good night, good luck, a Merry Christmas – and God bless all of you, all of you on the good Earth.”
Years later, Anders would win praise from environmentalists for his assertion that Apollo 8’s goal was to explore the Moon … and what it really did was discover the Earth!
It is reported that an unidentified language was picked up on one of the NASA frequencies used during the mission. “
Eight minutes into Christmas morning, three days and 17 hours after launch, and the return home got underway when the SPS engine was ignited to increase their speed by 2,300 mph (3,700 km/h). As they rounded the Moon for the last time, Lovell told Capcom Ken Mattingly, who was just coming on duty in Houston, “Please be informed there is a Santa Claus.” Mattingly replied that they were the best ones to know.
During James Lovell’s flight on Gemini 7 as a 1965 operated spaceflight in NASA‘s Gemini program. It was the fourth manned Gemini flight, the twelfth manned American flight. Lovell is reported to have taken some magnificent photographs of two mushroom shaped UFO’s on December 4. The pictures seem to show the glow of a propulsion system on the underside. The pictures were taken at a range of several hundred yards.
Lovell also witnessed an incident during flight Gemini 12 XII Gemini 12 (officially Gemini XII) was a 1966manned spaceflight in NASA‘s Project Gemini. It was the 10th and final manned Gemini flight, (James Lovell, Edwin Aldrin):
On November 12, 1966, both astronauts are reported to have spotted two UFO’s a 1/2 mile from the spacecraft. They were observed for some period of time and photographs were taken.
James Lovell While flying with several other USAF pilots over Germany in 1957, we sighted numerous radiant flying discs above us. We couldn’t tell how high they were. We couldn’t get anywhere near their altitude.”
UFOs Ships of God Bible Symbolism
Gary Colin writes, “I’ve studied the Bible for about 40 years. About 1992, I was inspired to take the name, “gat”. In 2005, I wrote, “Bible Symbolism What It Means to Your Salvation“. The Bible associates the word, “gat” with regeneration. I realized that regeneration is really a scientific “change” as opposed to a spiritual one. I reinvestigated the Bible from a scientific view point, and began to see that the Biblical clouds are the ships of “God” (Psalm Chapter 104; Ezekiel Chapter 1).
I have also learned that God “sits” and rides in a “Mother Mountain” which He calls “Jerusalem” or “Zion” (Galatians 4:26; Revelation 21:1-5; Matthew 24:30-34). The Bible promised that as our earthly life without “God’s” direct presence comes to its end, that “enlightened” information would be given to us(Daniel Chapters 11 and 12).
Jesus is talking to his disciples, “Do not let your heart be troubled. Trust in God, trust also in me. In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.” John 14-2
We’ve reached that time. The “Elohim” of the Bible supervised by the Almighty God to oversee the creation and growth of “humans”. It will be these “Sons of the Gods (Elohim)” who return at this world’s end. Just as in the Days of Noah (Genesis 6:1-10; Matthew 24:30-end). Thanks to Gary Colin
Russia Using Advanced Weapons in Syria
On October 14, Dr. Preston James, a columnist with Veterans Today, made startling claims about Russia using advanced weapons system developed through a secret agreement with extraterrestrial visitors in an article titled, “Putin’s Wild Card in Syria.”
Mikoyan MiG-29 Fulcrum
James’ article analyses the game-changing nature of Putin’s military intervention in Syria, and the nature of the extraterrestrial inspired weapons systems used to devastating effect:
What exactly do the Russians now have as far as ultra high-tech weaponry? The list is long, but includes supersonic torpedoes, which create their own ability to travel through matter surrounding their path using inter-dimensional cloaking. Russia has missiles which, after launch, operate as if they are “hived” and use inter-dimensional entangled communication to evade interception, to regroup and to re-target, taking strange flight patterns which can change from straight to spirals to semi circles and more. Some insiders believe that the Russians now have the ability to generate inter-dimensional cloaking of some of their stealth aircraft and missiles, making them undetectable.
ISIS continues to insist, “It brought down a Russian plane that crashed in Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula, providing no new details. In an audio statement posted on social media sites on Wednesday, IS said, it would announce the details of the alleged attack when it chooses.Thanks to Veterans Today
Flying Triangles over England
Victor J. Kean reports that Project FT is reviewing hundreds of reports of Flying Triangles (FT) over southeastern England during the 1990s and early 2000s. Most of the sightings were near three important nuclear power stations near the coast. We can only speculate why these craft are flying over this area almost nightly along the red track.
Sizewell Nuclear Power Station (NPS) on the Suffolk coast and Bradwell NPS in Essex are located 45 miles apart. The Kent coast at its nearest point (Isle of Grain) to Bradwell is about 27 miles further south. The FT have also been reported over Tihange, a nuclear power station with 3 cooling towers in Belgium. There is some evidence the craft are taking electrical or magnetic energy from the plants or power lines. There is a measurable decline in the transmission of electrical power particularly during rainy weather according to engineers.
Within 10 miles of either side of this flight-path, there are significant military and government facilities such as Bentwaters–Lakenheath AFB (disused) RAF Woodbridge, RAF Alconbury, and RAF Bawdsey (electronics research). The flying triangles might be examining important military facilities and ports.
Victor states, “We received a report from Observer ‘B’ a year before Observer ‘A’ emerged, so it was quite pleasing when we entered the latter report into our database and discovered that the two sightings were only 5 minutes and 11 miles in space. Equally of interest, these reports highlighted that the object had on more than one occasion, been seen by Observer ‘A’ ten minutes before arriving at Observer ‘C’ who was even further south in the area of a nuclear power station.
Detractors claim the FT are some rather slow moving stealth ‘airships’ belonging to either the RAF or the USAF. Some stealth chasers have been studying the small, silver-colored triangle aircraft that flies out of RAF Wharton. The idea that the FT is a ‘black budget’ aircraft is a theory by those who dismiss the alien possibilities. Complicating the matter are the many witnesses who describe exceptional speed and maneuverability relating to these triangles, such as flat pivot turns or incredible acceleration. The problem with *that* theory is where does one get pilots who are capable of withstanding the high G-Forces and other ‘shape-shifting’ capabilities displayed by the FT.
Also, why would the RAF or the USAF aircraft randomly hover for 5 to 25 minutes over a Nuclear Power Station on a nightly basis? After all, any readings or inspection can be carried out by the staff on the ground. There are a few ‘lone’ FT reports from 1960 to 1988 in the vicinity of UK Nuclear Power Stations. There are 16 reports from 1989, and 92. Additional reports from 1990 showed 71 were over Sizewell NPS, Suffolk. The NPS were visited by orange or yellow ‘Spheres’ or 24% of the total. Apart from the odd exception, the FT was always described as displaying three white apex ‘lights’ and with a single red ‘light’ in the center of the underside. The FT was described as “black” or as a “triangular pattern of lights.” A grey-colored Disk shape was also seen on one occasion that year.
It appears the FT is a source of infrared, which erases or nearly erases images on photographs made with a short exposure time. This is the “Herschel effect,” a perfectly respectable scientific phenomenon. We suggest using ordinary film and long exposure times, like Ektachrome ED 200 ASA, with two second’s exposure times. A long established UFO Research groups in the three counties involved has been on regular ‘Skywatch’ in Rendlesham Forest for the past five years. They’ve recorded the ‘comings and goings’ of the FT
Jean-Pierre Pharabod of France, an excellent researcher, writes the evidence includes numerous newspaper reports about the British Flying Triangles. These include: the Cornishman-Penzance newspaper on 6 July 1995, the Southport Visitor newspaper on 8 March 1996; the Daily Mail Weekend on 9 March 1996, as well as a rather long article in the Manchester Guardian.
Another article entitled, ‘A Flying Triangle of Fear’ was published in the ‘News of the World’: It stated, “The bizarre flying triangle hovered almost silently above the tiny hamlet of Hollesley in Suffolk for 20 minutes. Frightened children fled indoors and stunned villagers watched open-mouthed as three bright white lights hung motionless in the night sky. The UFO finally zoomed off making a high-pitched whining noise, ‘nothing like an aeroplane or helicopter’ according to eyewitnesses! A baker, Ron Macro was out on his rounds when the eerie lights came over the trees. ‘We froze,’ said 41-year old Ron, of St Austel Grove, Kesgrave, near Ipswich. ‘The lights were in a triangle and remained perfectly still.’ Several minutes passed. Then the lights moved. ‘Whatever was in the sky flew over us. The lights beamed down and we heard a high-pitched whine,‘ added Ron.
Pretty Debbie Foreman and her pal, Pauline Osborne, experienced the most frightening episode in the latest UFO incident. Strange things suddenly started happening to their car as they drove under the mysterious lights. ‘The headlights on the car dimmed and the engine cut out,’ said Debbie, 21, of Heath View, Leiston, Suffolk. ‘Until then the car had behaved quite normally. But everything seemed to go wrong.” The silent (only emitting sound when moving?), hovering, low altitude object, directed beams of light downward and eventually departed at great speed. Captain Kathleen McCullom, Public Affairs at RAF Woodbridge and RAF Bentwaters stated: “Nothing was seen on radar. I cannot say more than that.”The article is dated 23 October 1983, and may be the first UK newspaper report of a ‘flying triangle’ and origin of that terminology?
Additionally, there are numerous articles about the Bentwaters and ‘Rendlesham Forest’ incidents in the early1980’s, as described in Colonel Halt’s memo to the Ministry of Defence.
Most reports still originate from the US and there are comparative, earlier reports to be found in the US media. On the subject matter, I’m surprised to see so few, if any, references to Ellen Crystal’s book, ‘Silent Invasion’, which documented her alleged encounters with ‘flying triangles,’ long before this was a topical facet. Her sketches are also noticeably similar to later descriptions and drawings of said beast. Thanks to: Victor J. Kean Project FT, Jean-Pierre Pharabod and Current Encounters.
Ellen Crystal writes, “I mention probably 100 people in my book who have had sightings in Pine Bush, New York with and without me. I don’t work in a vacuum, as some people would make me out to do. The Appendix in Silent Invasion contains eye-witness statements by many people who came to Pine Bush and had UFO encounters of various types.”
After her book was initially released, thousands of people from all over the world showed up in Pine Bush lining the streets of this small town. Many hundreds of people saw UFOs took photographs and video on a regular nightly basis, of craft and related phenomena. Pine Bush was extremely active until about 1996, when it began to quiet down. (Many residents have also had encounters with UFOs including abductions.)
There is a 12 minute continuous segment of one large craft (part of a major sighting in NY state in which 1,000 or more people saw 3 or 4 large craft across lower NY state) Thanks to the late Ellen Crystal.

Filer’s Files #45 – 2015 Astronauts Saw UFOs - PART II
Sightings of UFOs in the United States
California Strange Lights
Fresno – On October 28, 2015, a UFO moved quickly and disappeared.
It moved to the sun and disappeared.
I saw it floating. At first, I thought it was a plane, but then it moved around so freely. Planes can’t do that.
Note:THE UFO IS NOT A LENS FLARE.
The witness saw the object and described it as unusual.
Phelan — I had filmed some neat clouds on October 22, 2015, and a week later, I was showing a friend the different things I had filmed. When we saw, something blink to the left of the screen. We both at the same time said, “What was that?” I replayed it repeatedly and stopped it “frame by frame. When I did that I could not believe what I was seeing was the proverbial saucer shape. She got creepy big time. I had not see it in sky at all as it was moving so fast. I started shaking and was terrified actually. I laughed, then started crying. It has absolutely changed me. I have always believed in extraterrestrials, but damn. It also made a strange sound. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Florida Rectangle
Keaton Beach — My friend and I were fishing in Keaton Beach and after pulling the boat out of the water on October 11, 2015, we noticed a big object in the sky to the west. It was a big rectangular shaped object moving very slow towards the south.
We had no idea what the object was when we first saw it so a UFO came to mind. We took two pictures 40 feet apart from the same road.
The object appeared to be moving the whole 30 minutes that we watched it. We had to leave the area while the object was still in the sky. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Georgia Triangle
Sardis — I got this an hour ago above my house along with a big triangle with orange lights on October 31, 2015
Three orange like glowing objects were observed in a triangular pattern on October 31, 2015.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Nevada Star
Rachael – I was taking a photo of how vast the desert is on September 6, 2010
This object was not visible at the time the photo was taken. I told my daughter her windshield was too dirty to take pictures through it, so I made her pull over.
I got out of the car and took this photo.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
New Jersey Metallic Saucer and Floating City
Montvale/Park Ridge — I saw an object that I could not recognize on July 22, 2015 at 10:15 pm. Shortly after I drove north past the Montvale service area of the Garden State Parkway, my view of the object was extremely clear of an object 150 feet across. It was about 1/2 mile away just above the tree line. It seemed to be moving slowly to the north and I was able to get much closer to the object.
It had an illuminated silver-metallic classic saucer appearance with a slightly flattened rim that projected around the middle. As I headed further north, it was brightest on the bottom with a golden glow, fading further up the object to orange, reddish, and then dark on top. It changed to an all dusky orange color with three red lights on the bottom and looked like the planet Saturn with a ring around it. Object is similar to this disc seen over Tennessee. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Ramsey — Traveling south on Route 17, my wife and I observed a city directly ahead of us en-route to the Olive Garden restaurant on October 29, 2015. Floating in the clouds and gleaming with a pinkish, sunset-type hue was a city. The buildings were all in neat rows, and all buildings were rectangular. There were a few that resembled skyscrapers, and there was a very prominent skyscraper in the front middle row of the buildings. There are no cities resembling it in New Jersey or anywhere south of our observed location. Thanks to MUFON CMS
North Carolina Orb
Robbinsville – I went for a short hike with my child on a mountain in Nantahala Forest on November 2, 2015. Taking pictures of flowers and the overcast landscape, I noticed an object as a glare on the lens. I saw it again in a different picture that I had taken a little farther down the trail. So I looked closer at the two pictures and noticed the light had moved down the trail. I looked at it closely and zooming in on it, I noticed that it had distinct features. It had moved from hovering to the next picture in which it had receded in to the woods. I have no idea what it is but it wasn’t glare or debris on the lenses. It was taken on a Samsung Galaxy 16mp phone. Many of my friends and family have seen these pictures and none of us can come up with an explanation. I hope these pictures will help you with your investigations. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Pennsylvania Lights
Levittown — I was inside the house when my son called me to tell me that he could see lights across state lines on October 17, 2015. I tried to debunk it by looking for rays of light from a light show but there were not any that evening. The objects were in white color, circling in which at one point one of them change direction on a dime. Being intuitive allowed me to witness a lot of energy discharge in the air as well as being able to see energy discharge within in the clouds. I felt as though I was in another world to be honest. I came in the house to review my video for 3-5 minutes. I then went outside and they were gone. The clouds and the UFO’s were gone. They came back again and were covered within the clouds that suddenly appeared. Also, being intuitive, I can hear different frequencies and I have heard weird sound waves with what sounds like people mumbling. I only hear again this late at night. Thanks to MUFON CMS
South Dakota Lights
Hartford — Took a picture of the huge harvest moon that night on November 1, 2015.
. The moon is the little red dot at far right. The white lights were not visible to the eye when I took the picture. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Texas Lights
Dallas— Driving into my gated apartment complex, I looked up and saw a chevron shaped formation on October 28, 2015.
The lights were chevron shape and orange-red. The formation did not emit sound.
As I continued to observe, 3-4 solid orange-red “orbs” followed the chevron- equidistantly spaced. I started to record this event with my phone after a minute or so all of the lights disappeared. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Utah Moon
Huntington — On October 26, 2015, I was photographing the sunset I noticed a beautiful moonrise over Cedar Mountain. At 6:40 PM, I used a 150-500 mm Sigma optically stabilized lens with a 1.4 tele-converter attached. With the 0.6X cropping factor of the sensor on the Canon T4i camera the total focal length was 1160 mm at the 500mm setting. I brushed any dust off the lens and noticed a triangular object. Between the first and second photo, I switched the camera to manual in order to bracket exposures. The object moved across the face of the moon and I snapped another picture, which was slightly over exposed. The last image shows the object (shadow?) just right of top center of the moon’s face and disappears following the moon’s curvature. The ISO for all images was 400 and shutter speeds were 1/20th of a second to 1/30th at an aperture of f-9. I am convinced it is an opaque object because the pixels block light reflected from the moon; the dark triangular area appears to be uniform in all the photos and clearly, blocks reflected light.

Clinton — My fiancé and I were driving home from on Whidbey Island to Clinton when as we crested a hill on October 27, 2015 and saw five bright yellow objects.
It appeared to be ‘hanging’ in the air over Puget Sound as if the lights were strung together. My fiancé did not see them. As we went down the hill, I lost sight of the lights. I was very curious to see them again, and to have her see them. These lights were not ‘normal’ for the area and they were not aircraft lights or Chinese lanterns. We went to a beach called Double Bluff on South Whidbey Island and the lights were varying their brightness. Initially they just hovered and then slowly moved away. Two remained in view and gradually became much brighter (see photo). Eventually they all gradually faded and disappeared. Then others appeared, and brightened. There were aircraft visible flying into SeaTac Airport. Through binoculars, the objects were emitting too much light to determine their shape, though one suddenly ‘morphed’ into a triangular form. All had a pulsing red light in the center. There was a low constant pulsating bass sound. They were exactly what the term ‘UFO’ means — Unidentified Flying Objects. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Worldwide UFO Reports
Australia Triangle
Stanhope Gardens – I was sitting on my patio at 18:40 hours on December 16, 2013, and noticed a small black object hovering in the sky. The object was hovering in the northern sky.
At first, I thought it may be a kite but it just hung there. I grabbed my iPhone and took three photos at different magnifications.
I watched the object for a while and then went back inside. Next time I came out it was gone. I did nothing about these photos but kept them. Today, I watched a documentary called “The Phoenix Incident” that showed a triangular craft being pursued by an F-15 that reminded me of my photo. The photo was taken with an iPhone.

Perth— Green orb photographed on Monday night October 26, 2015 at 8.15 pm, when photographing the Red moon. I noticed after taking pictures that I had two photos with green orb in two positions near the moon Thanks Jim Edwards Ascot W.A.
Canada UFO
Edmonton — We were trick-or-treating in our neighborhood on October 31, 2015. We noticed lights in the sky that were not on a set path. Then we noticed it was getting higher in the sky and flying all over the place. It was excessively fast and way too big to be an airplane.
We stood and watched its three square lights in a row. It also had a slight aura of white light around it. It went from the northeastern horizon to the southeastern horizon, on a crooked path, in two minutes. We were both extremely fascinated and talked about what we saw as we lost sight of it. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Columbia Disk
Ibague— This is an old photo from 1940, I saw as a child in many places in my city.
The object was shaped like a hat. This photo was taken with an old box camera.
I find it curious, because people at that time did not think about spaceships or anything like that.
I do not think it is a setup; people see that photo and do not notice that there is something there. Thanks to MUFON CMS
India Bright Object
Bangalore Hsr Layou — I just returned from my work around 5 am, on October 29, 2015, decided to smoke after a hard day at work.
While smoking I observed a bright object hovering above the moon and flashing lights. I took a picture of it as it hovered for a minute. When I decided to take another snap, it was gone.
It was clear sky with no trails of cloud anywhere. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Italy Light
Catania, Sicily — During my daily early morning check on internet for seismic events in the Mediterranean area, On October 30, 2015, I noticed in the INGV (Italian National Geology and Vulcanology) these pictures running from 0642 to 0654 hours local where a green cone shaped bright object appeared clearly. After 0700 hours, the object was not seen any longer. The object was seen at the volcano peak where several active vents are open.
The thermal digital pictures were taken by the EMCT (Mount Cagliato thermal images) camera. A constant watch of the volcano could be kept on the INGV cameras here: Thanks to MUFON CMS
Mexico Rhomboidal UFOs
Ecatepec— The presence of these anomalous objects was visible, since the air show and flights had been cancelled. A rhomboidal UFO was sighted over the Tablas del Pozo district of Ecatepec, Mexico State, by UFO hunter Salvador Ramirez on October 10, 2015. He had recorded a large brown UFO hanging in mid-air at low altitude. The UFO displayed considerable stability in spite of the prevailing winds, thus dispelling the possibility that it could have been a balloon, as the object retained control of its movements.
At that very same time, the Mexican Air Force was holding an air show celebrating the 205th year of the Independence of Mexico. All aircraft other than military were forbidden to fly over the area. Moreover, the air operations of the Mexico City International Airport were interrupted for nearly four hours to enable the free movement of the military jets.
At 11:07 hours on September 16, to the south of Mexico’s Federal District, a crew of the Tercer Milenio television show, led by Carlos Clemente, was able to capture a disc-shaped, black flying object in flight, thanks to the expertise of researcher Alfonso Salazar. This UFO flew at low altitude, nearly at the level of the residential structures in the area, without making any noise whatsoever.
Simultaneously, UFO hunter Fabián Meléndez managed to capture an object having the shape of an inverted pyramid, motionless at low altitude, and which did not display any type of mechanism whatsoever with which to fly in our atmosphere.
These sightings made us realize that there had been considerable UFO activity in Central Mexico. Such sightings have been documented on video since September 16, 1991 when Vicente Sanchez, located, managed to capture the presence of a mysterious UFO very close to the airplanes.

Spain Orb
Malaga— I was working and cleaning outside when I saw at first three bright balls just slowly floating on September 15, 2015. I wondered if they were balloons or plastic bags. I remember thinking Fuengirola market is open so it might be carrier bags caught in the wind. Then I saw another two or three maybe four following. At that moment I thought hey they look just like the orbs, I have seen on you tube. That’s when I decided to film them with my iPhone. I could see them clearly looking over the phone. When I checked I could briefly see a couple orbs. Thanks to MUFON CMS
UK/England Light
London– I never been to London before so I was taking pictures of everything on September 19, 2015. I waited until I was able to get the best shot of places with least interference of objects and people. I did not notice anything in the sky as I was taking pictures. I noticed this object over Buckingham Palace a few weeks after my trip. I was looking at pictures of my trip when I had reached this photo and noticed it right away. My wife thought it might be a plane. I showed her another photo 3-4 minutes later of the object in the background moving.
Note: Photo is probably an aircraft taken in several seconds.

Monmouthshire — I was browsing Google Earth of the area that I live. It appears that the Google Earth camera has captured something that I am not able to identify on June11, 2011. There are two things to observe in the image. The first is a machine in the air among the tree line at the top left of the image. The second is a strange cloud formation. I was shocked to see the image because nothing exists where this object is located on the image. Thanks to MUFON CMS

Dawn team shares new maps and insights about Ceres
Mysteries and insights about Ceres are being discussed this week at the European Planetary Science Conference in Nantes, France. NASA’s Dawn spacecraft is providing scientists with tantalizing views and other data about the intriguing dwarf planet that they continue to analyze.
“Ceres continues to amaze, yet puzzle us, as we examine our multitude of images, spectra and now energetic particle bursts,” said Chris Russell, Dawn principal investigator at the University of California, Los Angeles.
A new color-coded topographic map shows more than a dozen recently approved names for features on Ceres, all eponymous for agricultural spirits, deities and festivals from cultures around the world. These include Jaja, after the Abkhazian harvest goddess, and Ernutet, after the cobra-headed Egyptian harvest goddess. A 12-mile (20-kilometer) diameter mountain near Ceres’ north pole is now called Ysolo Mons, for an Albanian festival that marks the first day of the eggplant harvest.
Another new Ceres map, in false color, enhances compositional differences present on the surface. The variations are more subtle than on Vesta, Dawn’s previous port of call. Color-coded topographic images of Occator (oh-KAH-tor) crater, home of Ceres’ brightest spots, and a puzzling, cone-shaped 6-mile-high (4-kilometer-high) mountain, are also available. Scientists are still trying to identify processes that could produce these and other unique Cerean phenomena.
“The irregular shapes of craters on Ceres are especially interesting, resembling craters we see on Saturn’s icy moon Rhea,” said Carol Raymond, Dawn’s deputy principal investigator based at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, California. “They are very different from the bowl-shaped craters on Vesta.”
A surprising bonus observation came from Dawn’s gamma ray and neutron spectrometer. The instrument detected three bursts of energetic electrons that may result from the interaction between Ceres and radiation from the sun. The observation isn’t yet fully understood, but may be important in forming a complete picture of Ceres.
“This is a very unexpected observation for which we are now testing hypotheses,” Russell said.
Dawn is currently orbiting Ceres at an altitude of 915 miles (1,470 kilometers), and the spacecraft will image the entire surface of the dwarf planet up to six times in this phase of the mission. Each imaging cycle takes 11 days.
Starting in October and continuing into December, Dawn will descend to its lowest and final orbit, an altitude of 230 miles (375 kilometers). The spacecraft will continue imaging Ceres and taking other data at higher resolutions than ever before at this last orbit. It will remain operational at least through mid-2016.
Dawn made history as the first mission to reach a dwarf planet, and the first to orbit two distinct extraterrestrial targets, when it arrived at Ceres on March 6, 2015. It conducted extensive observations of Vesta in 2011 and 2012.
Dawn’s mission is managed by JPL for NASA’s Science Mission Directorate in Washington. Dawn is a project of the directorate’s Discovery Program, managed by NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama. UCLA is responsible for overall Dawn mission science. Orbital ATK Inc., in Dulles, Virginia, designed and built the spacecraft. The German Aerospace Center, Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research, the Italian Space Agency and the Italian National Astrophysical Institute are international partners on the mission team.

So suffice it to say that when the US space agency says it's got something big to share with the world, we're going to pay attention, and this Thursday at 2pm EST it's promising to announce "key science findings" about what happened to Mars' now-thin atmosphere. We'll be live reporting the announcement as it happens, and you can watch along with us from the comfort of your home or office belowvia NASA TV.
The question we're all asking, naturally, is what the hell NASA might have in store for us. So far, we don't have a whole lot to go on, but what we do know is that the research comes fom the MAVEN (Mars, Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution) spacecraft, which has been orbiting Mars since 2014 and studying its upper atmosphere. These will be the first findings announced from the mission.
The spacecraft carries eight different sensors on board, including an ion mass spectrometer and a magnetometer, and according to NASA its aim is to: "Determine the role that loss of volatiles from the Mars atmosphere to space has played through time, giving insight into the history of Mars' atmosphere and climate, liquid water, and planetary habitability."
That last point is a particular favourite among those speculating on the outcome of the announcement on Twitter at the moment, but unfortunately we have nothing concrete to back up the idea that the announcement is to do with the potential for past or future life on Mars.
There is, however, this one slightly telling clue that we've found on NASA's Vine, which shows a simulation of what the Red Planet may have once looked like, and we're kinda freaking out over it (hello, second Earth?).
The Vine update links to a NASA statement with a few more details:
"The atmosphere on Mars is whisper-thin and drier than bone – but it wasn't always that way. For the past year, the MAVEN mission has been orbiting the planet, piecing together clues about what happened to all the air on Mars. At 2pm EST on November 5, NASA will hold a briefing on some new findings about the Martian atmosphere."
We also know that the announcement will be held at the NASA headquarters in Washington DC and will involve:
Michael Meyer, lead scientist for the Mars Exploration Program
Bruce Jakosky, MAVEN principal investigator
Jasper Halekas, MAVEN Solar Wind Ion Analyser instrument lead
Yaxue Dong, MAVEN science team member
Dave Brain, MAVEN co-investigator
Which is a pretty hard-hitting line up. But the reality is that, until Thursday, we won't know what NASA is going to tell us. So tune in to the live stream below at 2pm on November 5 EST (that's 7pm UTC and 6am Friday AEST).
You can ask NASA questions in advance using #AskNASA on Twitter. And we'll be live reporting on the story as it happens, so watch this space.
P.S. Anyone with any suggestions for a NASA live announcement drinking game, please let us know on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or email. Because if the space agency is going to keep holding us in suspense like this on the regular, then we definitely need one.
The Dogon Tribe and Their Nordic Alien Gods From Sirius
The Dogon Tribe and Their Nordic Alien Gods From Sirius
How did an African tribe come to possess advanced astronomical knowledge about the Sirius star system?
Throughout history, many civilizations were fascinated with Sirius, the Dog Star. This bright celestial object occupies an elevated status in various mythologies but none paint a more intriguing picture than the Dogon Tribe of West Africa.
The rich culture of the Dogon people spans back more than five thousand years and one of their ancient legends tells the story of a race of otherworldly beings called the Nommo. According to legend, these advanced individuals visited the Earth eons ago, descending “from the sky in a vessel accompanied by fire and thunder.”
Friendly in nature, they shared some of their wisdom with the ancestors of the Dogon.
At this point we should mention that the Dogon possessed no astronomical instruments with which to study the night sky. But despite this inconvenience, their legends mention that the Nommo came from a planet that orbits one of the two stars in the Sirius star system.
It would have been impossible for them to reach this conclusion just by studying the star with the naked eye. In fact, astronomers only discovered Sirius’ smaller companion star a good 250 years after the telescope was invented.
Every 50 years, the Dogon celebrate the passing of a Sirius cycle, a tradition they keep in honor of the Nommo. That is exactly the time it takes for Sirius B to complete an orbit around its larger, more well-known companion. Coincidence?
The fact that a primitive African tribe possessed advanced knowledge about the universe is a mystery, but one that can be easily explained if we viewed their legends as mirrors of real events. So, what do the Dogon say about the Nommo?
Their home planet orbits Sirius B and is a largely-aquatic world. All legends describe them as amphibious creatures, very similar to our conception of Merfolk. Their upper half of the body closely resembles the Nordic Alien prototype of blue eyed, blonde-haired tall humanoids.
They landed in a large space ship the Dogon call ‘Pelu Tolo’ or ‘Star of the Tenth Moon.’ This event is one of great importance for the Dogon—their first contact. At the same time the Nommo ship was spiraling towards earth, a new star appeared in the night sky, possibly a mother ship from Sirius.
The tribe describe this star as having a swirling circle of reddish rays around it and also say that it was stationary relative to the other stars in the night sky.
The Dogon revered the Nommo and regarded them as civilizing gods. They are commonly referred to as ‘The Masters of the Waters”, “The Watchers” or “The Saviors.”
When shown photos of the most encountered alien species, Dogon shamans identified them with the Nordic alien type, claiming that their tribe had met blue eyed white humanoids long before meeting white men.
As unbelievable as this story sounds, it is paralleled by many others worldwide and they all share one common aspect: advanced alien beings visiting our planet, offering their aid and knowledge and being revered as gods. It would appear that this rash of visitations occurred around 5,000 years ago, possibly following a great flood or another catastrophe.
The white-skinned gods apparently visited the entire planet, as legends ranging from Australia to the Americas describe similar beings teaching mankind their ways.

Converging black holes in Virgo constellation

Converging black holes in Virgo constellation
Earlier this year, astronomers discovered what appeared to be a pair of supermassive black holes circling toward a collision so powerful it would send a burst of gravitational waves surging through the fabric of space-time itself.
Now, in a study in the journal Nature, astronomers at Columbia University provide additional evidence that a pair of closely orbiting black holes is causing the rhythmic flashes of light coming from quasar PG 1302-102.
Based on calculations of the pair’s mass–together, and relative to each other–the researchers go on to predict a smashup 100,000 years from now, an impossibly long time to humans but the blink of an eye to a star or black hole. Spiraling together 3.5 billion light-years away, deep in the Virgo constellation, the pair is separated by a mere light-week. By contrast, the closest previously confirmed black hole pair is separated by 20 light-years.
“This is the closest we’ve come to observing two black holes on their way to a massive collision,” said the study’s senior author, Zoltan Haiman, an astronomer at Columbia. “Watching this process reach its culmination can tell us whether black holes and galaxies grow at the same rate, and ultimately test a fundamental property of space-time: its ability to carry vibrations called gravitational waves, produced in the last, most violent, stage of the merger.”
At the center of most giant galaxies, including our own Milky Way, lies a supermassive black hole so dense that not even light can escape. Over time, black holes grow bigger–millions to billions times more massive than the sun–by gobbling up stars, galaxies and even other black holes.
A supermassive black hole about to cannibalize its own can be detected by the mysterious flickering of a quasar–the beacon of light produced by black holes as they burn through gas and dust swirling around them. Normally, quasars brighten and dim randomly, but when two black holes are on the verge of uniting, the quasar appears to flicker at regular intervals, like a light bulb on timer.
Recently, a team led by Matthew Graham, a computational astronomer at the California Institute of Technology, designed an algorithm to pick out repeating light signals from 247,000 quasars monitored by telescopes in Arizona and Australia. Of the 20 pairs of black hole candidates discovered, they focused on the most compelling bright quasar– PG 1302-102. In a January study in Nature, they showed that PG 1302-102 appeared to brighten by 14 percent every five years, indicating the pair was less than a tenth of a light-year apart.
Intrigued, Haiman and his colleagues wondered if they could build a theoretical model to explain the repeating signal. If the black holes were as close as predicted, one had to be circling a much larger counterpart at nearly a tenth of the speed of light, they hypothesized. At that speed, the smaller black hole would appear to brighten as it approached Earth’s line of sight under the relativistic Doppler beaming effect.
If correct, they predicted they would find a five-year cycle in the quasar’s ultraviolet emissions–only two-and-a-half times more variable in its intensity. Analyzing UV observations collected by NASA’s Hubble and GALEX space telescopes they found exactly that.
Previous explanations for the repeating signal include a warp in the debris disks orbiting the black holes, a wobble in the axis of one black hole and a lopsided debris disk formed as one black hole draws material off the other–all creating the impression of a periodic flicker from Earth.
The new study also offers a new technique for investigating other converging black holes, the researchers said. By estimating the combined and relative mass of PG 1302-102’s black holes, they narrow down the pair’s predicted crash time to between 20,000 and 350,000 years from now with a best estimate of 100,000 years. (The predicted crash time by Graham’s team was 10,000 to several million years from now with a best estimate of 250,000 years).
“We can start to put numbers on the rates that black holes come together and build up into larger black holes, and use what we’re learning to search for more black holes pairs,” said study coauthor David Schiminovich, an astronomer at Columbia.
An uptick in the number of black hole binary discoveries has made astronomers hopeful that a collision could be detected in the next decade. This summer, Graham and his colleagues reported another 90 candidates, while astronomers at Columbia expect to soon unveil discoveries of their own from data collected at California’s Palomar Observatory.
With more black holes to watch, the chance of witnessing a crash and the gravitational waves predicted, but not yet detected, by Einstein’s general theory of relativity, grows.
“The detection of gravitational waves lets us probe the secrets of gravity and test Einstein’s theory in the most extreme environment in our universe–black holes,” said the study’s lead author, Daniel D’Orazio, a graduate student at Columbia. “Getting there is a holy grail of our field.”
