UFO Gives Spectators Show Over North Korea On Sept 15, 2015, Video, UFO Sighting News.
UFO Gives Spectators Show Over North Korea On Sept 15, 2015, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: September 15, 2015 Location of sighting: North Korea Here is a TV show from Mexico that talks about a North Korea UFO sighting. The sighting took place back in Sept of this year and shows a UFO and its shields changing its color. As the UFO gets close to the clouds it appears white, and in between the clouds against the blue sky its metallic. During the show he mentions that most North Koreans are not allowed to own a camera, so the person who uploaded it is taking a big chance. Punishment in North Korea is often death. This is really incredible footage. Scott C. Waring www.ufosightingsdaily.com

UFO Rises Up Into Sky Over Dunnigan, California On Oct 17, 2015, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: October 17, 2015 Location of sighting: Dunnigan, California, USA Source: MUFON #60720 This is a great video, except he took it behind his dirty window. If you see a UFO, please move infront of the window. Its helps. This glowing UFO had rotating lights going around it and continued to rise into the clouds. The eyewitness lost sight of it, but can still be seeing the video at 1:15 into the video. As I have said before, UFOs appear most during sunset. Scott C. Waring www.ufosightingsdaily.com Eyewitness states: I was in Dunnigan, California, driving home from work. I seen a flashing light as I was taking my exit to county road 1, I had thought the blinking light was a radio tower, until I seen it slowly rising., and noticed there was no pole beneath it. I pulled off to the side of county road 1 exit, and began filming the object with my Iphone 4, At first, the light was blinking through the clouds. About a minute and a half later, it had risen above the clouds and was slowly moving in the north direction, over me. At this point, I was able to see the object in person. It was a perfect black saucer shaped object, with a bit of a triangular pointy tip in the front. By then, I was in shock. I felt like my brain was telling me no, yet my eyes were telling me yes. The scariest and most unbelievable part for me, was the lights. The lights were blinking in a circular motion, one after the other, making a full rotation around the saucer, exactly like the ones you would see in a movie. I was feeling anxiety by now, honestly wondering if it noticed me. The whole movement of the saucer was simple. All it did was hover in the sky from about 40 ft from the ground, until it was above the clouds. It hovered in a straight line. Its hard to describe how far away it was from me, maybe about a football field away. I was able to see the chiseling detail of the ship, and the lights were picture-perfect clear.
SETI Researchers Monitor A Star System For Possible Alien Existence Because Of Its Strange Behavior
SETI Researchers Monitor A Star System For Possible Alien Existence Because Of Its Strange Behavior
Alien hunters have been carefully monitoring the KIC 8462852 star system. For more than two weeks, they have been aiming their telescopes on it to find out whether or not extraterrestrials are home.
Astronomers discovered a star approximately 1,500 light years from Earth last month. The star had an unusual dimming pattern, making the researchers think that a dense, irregular matter surrounded the KIC 8462852 and blocked 22 percent of the star’s light at one point. It’s very unusual as even a giant Jupiter planet would only block one percent.
The theory is that the strange readings could come from a cloud of comets. But some researchers theorized that the source of the unusual readings could come from alien megastructures.
So, the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence Institute directed its Allen Telescope Array – comprising of forty-two 20-feet-wide antennas – at the star for over two weeks. The researchers were looking for both broadband signals that spacecraft propulsion systems generated and narrow-band signals that might be used by alien civilizations to broadcast their existence.
Unfortunately, the telescope array did not detect any alien civilizations. So, it means that we can stop worrying on an invasion from KIC 8462852, but it doesn’t mean the researchers won’t find anything.
Center for SETI Research director, Seth Shostak, said in a statement that the star’s strange behavior was likely due to nature, but it’s only prudent to ensure that it was not due to aliens.
NASA HAS A SECRET MISSION TO THIS MYSTERIOUS WATER WORLD AND KEEPS IT UNDER WRAPS
NASA HAS A SECRET MISSION TO THIS MYSTERIOUS WATER WORLD AND KEEPS IT UNDER WRAPS
In February, NASA announced that it was investing in a $2 billion mission to Europa — a tiny moon of Jupiter that is one of the most likely places for life beyond Earth. Their spacecraft, called the Europa Multi-Flyby Mission, would orbit Jupiter, taking frequent passes by Europa for a close look at its surface.
What NASA didn't mention at the time was any plan to land on it. But in a recent conversation with US Rep. John Culberson (R-Texas), Ars Technica's senior space editor, Eric Berger, reported that one such plan was in motion.
Why it's critical that we land on Europa Setting a lander down on Europa could offer an unprecedented look at the composition of the ice on the surface, but more important, it could study molecules in the global liquid ocean (shown below) where life could exist.
We at Disclose.tv and scientists suspect that Europa harbors more water than all of Earth's oceans combined, but all of that water is contained underneath an icy shell shielded from the surface.
Because of that shell, a lander couldn't dive into the icy waters. But it could still sample them by parking beside one of the open crevasses that occasionally spew water from beneath, as illustrated below:
NASA still isn't releasing any details on how they plan to get a probe on the surface.
And if you visit the main page for NASA's Europa mission, you won't see any mention of a lander. The first glimpse of a possible lander came last September, when Europa project scientist Robert Pappalardo announced that NASA was exploring the possibility of a lander.
But, again, no further information regarding the design or instrumentation was given. Over the years, a number of hypothetical missions like the Europa squid robot or tiny cryobots (shown below) have been proposed, but none of these have received serious funding consideration:
Now, Berger has his hands on the juicy details from Culberson, who you could say is the main man behind this critical lander mission.
Culberson is the chairman of the House Appropriations Subcommittee, with oversight of NASA's budget. And he wants to know if there's life on Europa as badly as any NASA scientist working on the Europa Multi-Flyby Mission.
Adding a lander to the mission would improve NASA's chances of discovering the presence, or absence, of life, which is why Culberson is pushing for the necessary funding to get a lander added to the mission.
"Honestly, if you're going to go all that way to determine if there's life on another world, why wouldn't you double-check it?" Culberson told Berger.
Earlier this month, during one of Culberson's regular check-ins with the mission scientists, he learned the latest details on the lander, which he relayed to Berger.
Here's the gist, according to Ars Technica: The addition of a lander will prolong the mission launch an additional year, from 2022 to 2023. Similar to the 2014 comet landing, a landing site will be chosen until the spacecraft has extensively studied the moon's surface.
The lander will weigh about 500 pounds and be delivered to the surface by sky crane, similar to how the Curiosity Mars rover was set on the surface. Included in the 500-pound limit, there's room for up to 66 pounds of instruments for scientific analysis, which include a device for identifying complex biological molecules that could signify signs of life.
The lander will also come with a scooper and sampling arm equipped with counter-rotating saw blades for shallow drilling into the icy surface to collect ice samples.
Ultimately, the scientists want to get the lander near a crevasse that is venting water vapor from the underground ocean, Berger reported. That way, the instruments can sniff for any signs of life that might be swimming or floating underneath. NASA has yet to officially announce that they're sending a lander to Europa
A newly discovered planet 39 light-years away is being called the closest Earth-size exoplanet ever discovered — and a potential "Venus twin" — providing the mouth-watering opportunity for a close-up look at the environment on a rocky alien world.
One of the dire frustrations of studying planets around other stars (and, really, any astronomical object) is their distance from Earth, which makes it onerous or impossible to get many basic details about them. Exoplanets are doubly frustrating because any light they emit (light that would give hints about what's happening on the surface) is often overwhelmed by the light of the parent star.
But the new planet, called GJ 1132b, is only a cosmic stone's throw from Earth, orbiting a fairly dim star, and appears to be a rocky world with an atmosphere. And while its surface temperature indicates that it may havemore in common with Venus than Earth, it is so perfectly primed for Earth-based studying, that astrophysicist Drake Deming hailed it as "arguably the most important planet ever found outside the solar system." [Watch: GJ 1132b - Closest Earth-size Alien Planet Explained]

Deming, a professor of astronomy at the University of Maryland, wrote about GJ 1132b in a "News & Views" article in the Nov. 12 issue of the journal Nature, noting that the "significance of this new world derives from several factors."
The first of those factors is its size — only 1.2 times the mass of Earth — and second is its proximity — only 39 light-years from our sun. These factors earned it the title "closest Earth-sized exoplanet yet discovered," by a statement from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
"Our galaxy spans about 100,000 light-years. So this is definitely a very nearby solar neighborhood star," Zachory Berta-Thompson, a postdoc in MIT's Kavli Institute for Astrophysics and Space Research and lead author of the paper announcing the discovery, said in the same statement.
Most of Earth-like or Earth-size planets known to science are hundreds or thousands of light-years away. Kepler-452b, discovered this past July and dubbed the most Earth-like planet found so far, is 1,400 light-years from Earth. Conversely, the recently discovered HD 219134b is only 21 light years from Earth, but is 4.5 times more massive as our home planet.
There's more that makes GJ 1132b prime for observations.
GJ 1132b was discovered using the MEarth-South telescope array, which consists of eight 40-centimeter telescopes located at the Cerro-Tololo Inter-America Observatory in Chile. The array hunts for exoplanets with the transit method (also used by the Kepler Space Telescope), which looks for regular "dips" in the amount of light coming from a star. The dips indicate that a planet is passing in front of the star.
It takes 1.6 days for GJ 1132b to make a single trip around Gliese 1132, its parent star (which means its orbit is smaller than Mercury's). This is a bonus for astronomers because it means the planet is frequently in view.

And there's more: the transit method of exoplanet detection offers the possibility of studying the planet's atmosphere — if it contains oxygen and water, or even signs of life; the wind patterns; even the color of its sunsets, according to the statement from MIT. As the planet passes in front of the star, light passes through the planet's atmosphere, and picks up information about the chemistry therein.
Gliese 1132 is an M-dwarf star (also known as a red dwarf) only 21 percent the size of the sun, and emits only one-half a percent as much light. While the planet's size compared with its parent star makes it very non-Earth-like, this is also a significant advantage for observations because the light from the star doesn't completely overwhelm any reflected light that could be collected from the planet.
Despite this, GJ 1132b orbits very close to the star, receives significantly more radiation than Earth, and thus has a surface temperature much higher than Earth: 275 to 580 degrees Fahrenheit (135 to 304 Celsius), which would make it similar to Venus.
"Our ultimate goal is to find a twin Earth, but along the way we’ve found a twin Venus," said astronomer David Charbonneau of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (CfA), in a statement. "We suspect it will have a Venus-like atmosphere too, and if it does we can’t wait to get a whiff."
While this is too high for life (as we know it) to survive, it is cool enough to potentially maintain an atmosphere. According to the statement from CfA, CJ 1132b is "significantly cooler than any other exoplanet confirmed to be rocky. In comparison, well-known worlds such as CoRoT-7b and Kepler-10b possess scorching temperatures of 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit or more." At those temperatures, atmospheres similar to the one on Earth or Venus rarely survive. [10 Exoplanets That Could Host Alien Life]

"If we find this pretty hot planet has managed to hang onto its atmosphere over the billions of years it’s been around, that bodes well for the long-term goal of studying cooler planets that could have life," Berta-Thompson said. "We finally have a target to point our telescopes at, and [can] dig much deeper into the workings of a rocky exoplanet, and what makes it tick."
In the search for life elsewhere in the universe,some scientists think the community should targetEarth-size planets around M-dwarfs because it is relatively easy to study their atmospheres, and because they may be fairly common in the galaxy. Perhaps, among this population of planets, scientists will find an alien world with the right setup to support life. GJ 1132b could be an important step toward that discovery.
"But even if life is abundant in the cosmos, finding unambiguous spectroscopic evidence of it is a daunting task that lies in the indefinite future," Deming wrote. "Observations of small stars, such as Gliese 1132, loom large in this task."
An in-depth study of GJ 1132b could be conducted by the Hubble Space Telescope, or better yet, the James Webb Space Telescope, scheduled to launch in 2018. Berta-Thompson said he thinks GJ 1132b is "going to be a favorite target of astronomers for years to come."
Have aliens developed taste for the fine wines of Argentina? That could be one reason why a UFO was spotted recently over a famous vineyard in Argentina – a vineyard named for a cruel practice of one of its owners. The name also belongs to a copper mine in Ecuador. With UFOs often seen at these mines in South America, could this possibly be a case of aliens reading their map wrong?
Magnified image of Argentine UFO
The UFO was spotted at 4 am on November 4th by an unnamed woman in El Challo, a town in the district of Mendoza in western Argentina. She managed to make a shaky recording of the UFO with her cell phone.
The woman also mentioned that the UFO was over El Mirador. That’s a vineyard in town whose name translates to The Tower. Why? A notorious owner of the vineyard used to stand on a tower and watch over his workers. Nice guy. Then again, theArgentine wine industry is the fifth largest in the world and is centered in Mendoza. Could this be why the UFO was visiting? Is “The Tower” a beacon for some of the best red wine in the universe?
While local wine could explain this UFO sighting and a previous one in 1959 of a daytime disc-shaped object, there may be other reasons. El Challo is also home to a stunning glass pyramid-shaped church, the Sanctuary of Lourdes, which is annually visited by tens of thousands of devotees of Our Lady of Lourdes. Were aliens attracted to its unique architecture or in need of a miracle?
The Sanctuary of Lourdes in El Challo
Then there’s the copper mine. UFOs have long been attracted to copper mines (as well as other metals mines), particularly in South America. The El Mirador mine in Ecuador is one of the largest copper mines in Ecuador and the world. Did the Argentine UFO have a faulty GPS that took it to the wrong El Mirador?
Was the UFO over El Challo looking for a glass of Argentine Cabernet Sauvignon? Were its occupants seeking solace or a miracle at a beautiful pyramid-shaped church? If so, would the worshipers welcome them? Do aliens get lost too? Or was it something else?

DID THE ANCIENTS KNOW THE SECRETS TO LEVITATION?
DID THE ANCIENTS KNOW THE SECRETS TO LEVITATION?
"DID ANCIENT CIVILIZATIONS possess knowledge that has since been lost to science? Were amazing technologies available to the ancient Egyptians that enabled them to construct the pyramids — technologies that have somehow been forgotten?
The ruins of several ancient civilizations — from Stonehenge to the pyramids — show that they used massive stones to construct their monuments. A basic question is why? Why use stone pieces of such enormous size and weight when the same structures could have been constructed with more easily managed smaller blocks — much like we use bricks and cinderblocks today?
Could part of the answer be that these ancients had a method of lifting and moving these massive stones — some weighing several tons — that made the task as easy and manageable as lifting a two-pound brick? The ancients, some researchers suggest, may have mastered the art of levitation, through sonics or some other obscure method, that allowed them to defy gravity and manipulate massive objects with ease.
THE EGYPTIAN PYRAMIDS
How the great pyramids of Egypt were built has been the subject of debate for millennia. The fact is, no one really knows for certain exactly how they were constructed. The current estimates of mainstream science contends that it took a workforce of 4,000 to 5,000 men 20 years to build the Great Pyramid using ropes, pulleys, ramps, ingenuity and brute force.
And that very well may have been the case. But there is an intriguing passage in a history text by the 10th century Arab historian, Abul Hasan Ali Al-Masudi, known as the Herodotus of the Arabs. Al-Masudi had traveled much of the known world in his day before settling in Egypt, and he had written a 30-volume history of the world. He too was struck by the magnificence of the Egyptian pyramids and wrote about how their great stone blocks were transported.
First, he said, a “magic papyrus” (paper) was placed under the stone to be moved. Then the stone was struck with a metal rod that caused the stone to levitate and move along a path paved with stones and fenced on either side by metal poles. The stone would travel along the path, wrote Al-Masudi, for a distance of about 50 meters and then settle to the ground. The process would then be repeated until the builders had the stone where they wanted it.
Considering that the pyramids were already thousands of years old when Al-Masudi wrote this explanation, we have to wonder where he got his information. Was it part of an oral history that was passed down from generation to generation in Egypt? The unusual details of the story raise that possibility. Or was this just a fanciful story concocted by a talented writer who — like many who marvel at the pyramids today — concluded that there must have been some extraordinary magical forces employed to build such a magnificent structure?
If we take the story at face value, what kind of levitation forces were involved? Did the striking of the rock create vibrations that resulted in sonic levitation? Or did the layout of stones and rods create a magnetic levitation? If so, the science accounting for either scenario is unknown to us today.
OTHER ASTONISHING MEGALITHS
The Egyptian pyramids are not the only ancient structures constructed of huge blocks of stone. Far from it. Great temples and monuments around the world contain stone components of incredible size, yet little is known about their means of construction.
The Temple of Jupiter at Baalbek, Lebanon has a foundation that contains the three largest stone blocks ever used in a man-made structure. Each block is estimated to weigh as much as 1,000 tons! No super crane in existence today could lift one, yet they are positioned together with such precision that not even a needle could fit between them. Nearby is an even bigger stone. Known as Hajar el Hibla — the Stone of the Pregnant Woman — it lies abandoned in its quarry, never used. But the giant rectangular block is the largest piece of stone ever cut by humans, weighing an incredible 1,200 tons. It is estimated that it would require the strength of 16,000 men to even budge it, and represents a formidable challenge to 20th century machines and technology.
On an isolated plateau at Tiahuanaco, Bolivia, 13,000 feet above sea level, stands an impressive monument called Puerta del Sol, or Sun Gate. The elaborately carved gate weighs an estimated 10 tons, and how it arrived at its present location is a mystery.
Nan Madol, sometimes called “the Machu Pichu of the Pacific,” is a great ruins on the island of Pohnpei, capital of the Federated States of Micronesia. This lost city, constructed around 200 B.C., is made up of hundreds of stacked stone logs, each about 18-feet-long and several feet in diameter. The logs, stacked like cordwood, constitute walls that are 40 feet high and 18 feet thick. Each stone log is estimated to weigh about 2.5 tons. How they were moved and lifted into position is unknown.
What was the secret these diverse and ancient cultures possessed to manipulate these great stone blocks? A massive supply of slave labor straining human muscle and ingenuity to their limits? Or was there another more mysterious way? It’s remarkable that these cultures leave no record of how these structures were constructed. However, “in almost every culture where megaliths exist,” according to 432:Cosmic Key, “a legend also exists that the huge stones were moved by acoustic means — either by the chanted spells of magicians, by song, by striking with a magic wand or rod (to produce acoustic resonance), or by trumpets, gongs, lyres, cymbals or whistles.”
TIBETAN SECRETS OF LEVITATION
In his book The Bridge to Infinity, Bruce Cathie recounts an amazing story that he says originated in a German magazine. It tells the story of astonishing feats of levitation accomplished by priests in a monastery high in the Tibetan Himalayas. Here, in English translation, are excepts from that German article:
A Swedish doctor, Dr. Jarl… studied at Oxford. During those times he became friends with a young Tibetan student. A couple of years later, it was 1939, Dr. Jarl made a journey to Egypt for the English Scientific Society. There he was seen by a messenger of his Tibetan friend, and urgently requested to come to Tibet to treat a high Lama. After Dr. Jarl got the leave he followed the messenger and arrived after a long journey by plane and Yak caravans, at the monastery, where the old Lama and his friend who was now holding a high position were now living.
One day his friend took him to a place in the neighborhood of the monastery and showed him a sloping meadow which was surrounded in the north west by high cliffs. In one of the rock walls, at a height of about 250 metres was a big hole which looked like the entrance to a cave. In front of this hole there was a platform on which the monks were building a rock wall. The only access to this platform was from the top of the cliff and the monks lowered themselves down with the help of ropes.
In the middle of the meadow. about 250 metres from the cliff, was a polished slab of rock with a bowl like cavity in the center. The bowl had a diameter of one metre and a depth of 15 centimeters. A block of stone was maneuvered into this cavity by Yak oxen. The block was one metre wide and one and one-half metres long. Then 19 musical instruments were set in an arc of 90 degrees at a distance of 63 metres from the stone slab. The radius of 63 metres was measured out accurately. The musical instruments consisted of 13 drums and six trumpets. (Ragdons).
Behind each instrument was a row of monks. When the stone was in position the monk behind the small drum gave a signal to start the concert. The small drum had a very sharp sound, and could be heard even with the other instruments making a terrible din. All the monks were singing and chanting a prayer, slowly increasing the tempo of this unbelievable noise. During the first four minutes nothing happened, then as the speed of the drumming, and the noise increased, the big stone block started to rock and sway, and suddenly it took off into the air with an increasing speed in the direction of the platform in front of the cave hole 250 metres high. After three minutes of ascent it landed on the platform.
Continuously they brought new blocks to the meadow, and the monks using this method, transported 5 to 6 blocks per hour on a parabolic flight track approximately 500 metres long and 250 metres high. From time to time a stone split, and the monks moved the split stones away. Quite an unbelievable task. Dr Jarl knew about the hurling of the stones. Tibetan experts like Linaver, Spalding and Huc had spoken about it, but they had never seen it. So Dr Jarl was the first foreigner who had the opportunity to see this remarkable spectacle. Because he had the opinion in the beginning that he was the victim of mass-psychosis he made two films of the incident. The films showed exactly the same things that he had witnessed.
The English Society for which Dr Jarl was working confiscated the two films and declared them classified. They will not be released until 1990.
Were the films of this fascinating feat released in 1990? Did they ever even exist? Or is this just another tall tale that lends more mystery to the land of Shangri-la?
CORAL CASTLE
How unfortunate that these secrets of levitation – if they ever existed – are lost to antiquity or the remoteness of the Himalayas. They seem to be forever elusive to modern Western man. Or are they?
Beginning in 1920, Edward Leedskalnin, a 5-ft. tall, 100-lb. Latvian immigrant, began to build a remarkable structure in Homestead, Florida. Over a 20-year period, Leedskalnin single-handedly build a home he originally called “Rock Gate Park,” but has since been named Coral Castle. Working in secret – often at night – Leedskalnin was somehow able to quarry, fashion, transport and constructed the impressive edifices and sculptures of his unique home from large blocks of heavy coral rock.
It’s estimated that 1,000 tons of coral rock were used in construction of the walls and towers, and an additional 100 tons of it were carved into furniture and art objects:
An obelisk he raised weighs 28 tons.
The wall surrounding Coral Castle stands 8 ft. tall and consists of large blocks each weighing several tons.
Large stone crescents are perched atop 20-ft.-high walls. A 9-ton swinging gate that moves at the touch of a finger guards the eastern wall.
The largest rock on the property weighs an estimated 35 tons.
Some stones are twice the weight of the largest blocks in the Great Pyramid at Giza.
All this he did alone and without heavy machinery. No one was ever witness to how Leedskalnin was able to move and lift such enormous objects, although it is claimed that some spying teenagers saw him “float coral blocks through the air like hydrogen balloons.”
Leedskalnin was highly secretive about his methods, saying only at one point, “I have discovered the secrets of the pyramids. I have found out how the Egyptians and the ancient builders in Peru, Yucatan and Asia, with only primitive tools, raised and set in place blocks of stone weighing many tons.”
If Leedskalnin had indeed rediscovered the ancient secrets of levitation, he took them with him to his grave

MISSIONS APPROVED: SPACEX TO TAKE NASA CREWS TO SPACE STATION
MISSIONS APPROVED: SPACEX TO TAKE NASA CREWS TO SPACE STATION
Elon Musk's SpaceX commercial space program got approval Friday from NASA to take a crew to the International Space Station -- SpaceX's first such mission.
The flight isn't set to happen until late 2017. But SpaceX can now begin preparing for the journey.
The flight is one of two guaranteed missions that SpaceX secured the rights to in a 2014 contract with NASA.
Boeing (BA), which was also awarded a contract with NASA last year, was given its first assignment in June.
As part of the contract, both Boeing and SpaceX are entitled to at least two and as many as six missions.
The deal is part of NASA's effort to transition some of its low-Earth orbit flights to less expensive commercial operators.
"Commercial crew launches are really important for helping us meet the demand for research on the space station," said Julie Robinson, International Space Station chief scientist.
SpaceX, which is based in Hawthorne, California, will use a Crew Dragon spacecraft and Falcon 9 rocket during the mission.
The company noted the mission was a "significant milestone" and said it was proud to be able to move forward.
"When Crew Dragon takes NASA astronauts to the space station in 2017, they will be riding in one of the safest, most reliable spacecraft ever flown. We're honored to be developing this capability for NASA and our country," said SpaceX President and COO Gwynne Shotwell.
SpaceX has made six successful resupply trips to the International Space Station over the past four years. However, in June an unmanned Falcon 9 rocket, headed to the space station, exploded minutes after taking off ( via money.cnn.com ).

Astronaut Scott Kelly Tweets Photo of a UFO Right Near the ISS
Astronaut Scott Kelly Tweets Photo of a UFO Right Near the ISS
Many people have realized by now that the official agencies are constantly hiding relevant aspects from the rest of the population, but what happens when their own people turn to whistleblowers or reveal classified information?
When someone leaks secret information, it doesn’t necessarily have to be in an official manner. That said, inside people can offer hints that point towards the obvious truth.
For almost a year, astronaut Scott Kelly has been tweeting fabulous photos of Earth seen from above, more precisely from the International Space Station (ISS).
On Sunday however, he tweeted a photo revealing something fascinating – a huge UFO floating in the vicinity of the station.
In the upper right of the photo, a colossal spaceship-like object can be observed and while Scott Kelly didn’t let anything unusual to be seen in his tweet, he might had pointed at it deliberately. If we look at his tweet: Once upon a star over Southern India, it could be interpreted as “up a star” or above the star. Even though skeptics might not agree with such an interpretation, we strongly believe that he indeed left a huge hint for humanity.
Is this UFO a spaceship of some sort? Does this reveal extraterrestrial activity near or with the ISS? Is Scott Kelly trying to send us an obvious message?
If you hope for NASA to answer these questions, you might have to wait for some time because no comment or explanation has been offered so far, and it most probably won’t come so, without an official confirmation, people will most likely deny the obvious truth once again.
Until further evidence, we can only speculate and once again analyze the recent UFO cases encountered near or at the ISS: Similar spacecraft lands with the ISS, 9-foot tall alien meeting with ISS astronauts, ISS blue screen pop up when a supposed UFO makes its presence noticed plus some other great sightings from space near official NASA missions.
Refresh your memory if you must and consider the fact that we might not be alone.

Astronaut Scott Kelly's 'UFO' photo generates extraterrestrial buzz
Astronaut Scott Kelly's 'UFO' photo generates extraterrestrial buzz
The truth is out there … maybe. A photo tweeted by astronaut Scott Kelly is generating plenty of extraterrestrial buzz.
Kelly, who recently broke the U.S. record for most days in space, tweeted the picture taken from the International Space Station Sunday.
An apparent ‘object’ in the top right hand corner of the image has piqued the interest of UFO hunters such as sonofmabarker. “In the upper right of the photo you can clearly see a large object with two lights on each end. It also appears to be very large and constructed,” he wrote, in a post accompanying a YouTube video on the image.
In a blog post on the UFO Sightings Daily website, Scott Waring also weighed in on the image. “Scott Kelly likes to send out photos of the view from the windows of the space station … and they look cool,” he wrote. “This one however has a cigar shaped glowing UFO with a metallic body in it.”
Here’s one interesting report from The Third Millennium about this interesting sighting of a horseshoe-shaped UFO in the sky above Wonsan in North Korea. This happened on 15th September 2015.
Project REDSUN—They Went to Mars Without Telling Us
Project REDSUN—They Went to Mars Without Telling Us
How much do we know about Mars? Or is it “how much we don’t know about it” a better question to ask?
According to several sources, the distant Red Planet meant an important deal to NASA ever since the late 1950s. As the Apollo program was coming to an end, and with the entire population bathed in excitement because of the huge step humanity took towards progress and innovation, the space agency already had bigger plans for the near future.
Apparently, at that time (in 1970s more precisely) NASA focused more on a manned mission to Mars. As crazy as this sounds, it might prove to be true, and here is why: 50 years ago from now, in the summer of 1965, Mariner 4 became the first successful mission to come near the surface of the Red Planet. The photos returned by the space module caused an immense stir among NASA’s personnel, as it revealed never before seen features of the bizarre “red dot” that could be observed from Earth.
What they learned in 1965 made the agency want to send astronauts there ASAP in order to colonize the Red Planet and who knows what other reasons they had. Therefore, NASA secretly funded a project similar to the Apollo missions which they codenamed Project REDSUN. Its aim was apparently to colonize the planet, but after analyzing the case, it seems that they had some other thoughts as well. Is it possible that NASA encountered some form of intelligent life on Mars?
In 1971, one year before the final Apollo mission, Mariner 9 was orbiting Mars and managed to photograph the entirety of its surface, thus providing conclusive images with ancient riverbeds, a 3,000 mile-long grand canyon, gigantic volcanoes, and other artificial-like structures that we can also see for ourselves today.
What seems rather interesting is the fact that NASA had a free hand to operate under the ongoing lunar exploration hysteria. Another curious thing to note is the fact that the agency was overly prepared to send a second mission to Mars, as Richard Zurek, NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory’s leading scientist revealed:
"It was a good thing we had other spacecraft ready, as it might have stopped Mars exploration for a while. The pace of exploration would have slowed – we certainly wouldn’t have had anything as ambitious as the mission in 1970s.
MARINER 9’S PHOTO OF NIRGAL VALLIS, THE LARGEST VALLEY NETWORK ON MARS
It was a planet that seemed similar enough to the Earth that you could imagine it having supported life in the past… We still don’t know for sure if life did develop there.”
In the years that followed, several exploration modules were sent to Mars, probably because of the unimaginable discoveries that were previously unearthed. However, first photos from the actual surface of the planet were taken by the Viking 1 mission and were revealed on July 20, 1976. One day later, the first color picture taken by the Viking 2 lander was available. Considering all the above, we can’t help but wonder what happened between 1970 and 1976, and why the space agency didn’t officially admit the landing of a module on the Martian surface until then?
On August 28, 1973, a secret mission funded by NASA and the US Department of Defense was to depart towards the distant planet Mars under the name of Project Redsun. According to recently leaked documents, the crew consisted of American astronaut Edwin E. “Buzz” Aldrin, Neil Armstrong and a fellow comrade from the USSR named Vladimir Ilyushin.
The video below was supposedly leaked from a collection of 16mm archived footage used in the training of NASA astronauts and Air Force pilots. The video reveals how astronauts aboard a spacecraft considered to be the ISV Columbus, are slowly leaving behind Earth’s view to welcome a new, more dusty sight of planet Mars. Some features of the Red Planet are clearly visible during the orbital flight, including the famous South Pole of Mars.
Mission control was established at Cocoa Beach, Florida and it coordinated Project Redsun’s first three launches. All subsequent missions were relocated and administrated from Area 51.
After the video was made public, people begun to question its authenticity, and as usual, NASA denied any form of implication in a manned mission to Mars, considering the footage to be a ridiculous forgery. While people couldn’t accept the agency’s potential for such a quest, seeing as it was 1970 back then, the above footage didn’t receive too much attention. However, it all changed in April 2011 when more evidence was brought to light by an Italian journalist and UFO researcher Luca Scantamburlo. During a press conference, they presented a testimony revealing the details of project Redsun.
"Iintroduce to you a press-release testimony I have written to discuss the presumed existence of a hush-hush military space program called “Project Redsun”, carried out in the 70s of the last century to build a stationary base on Mars, the Red Planet. My source of information – named by me ‘bravoxsierra24’ – had contacted me by email. It is possible to reproduce the pages of the press release, and the picture here presented as well.
The below documents back up this seemingly crazy but not at all impossible hypothesis of an early manned mission to Mars. If this happened indeed, we can think of so many reasons why NASA would engage in such a secret mission. What could NASA had encountered there? Was there an ancient alien base or did they met with intelligent beings who still inhabit the planet? Considering many other possibilities, the reason might exceed all our earthly expectations, and who knows, maybe one they we will find out. Are we prepared for this kind of disclosure?

Mystery signals could be a habitable Earth-like world
Mystery signals could be a habitable Earth-like world
According to astronomers, the anomalous signals that were dismissed sooner as ‘stellar bursts’ are coming from an Earth like planet located 22 light years away. The celestial object was discovered five years ago but was later dismissed as stellar bursts and not a planet. Now, after further tests, scientists have come to the conclusion that the anomalous signals are coming from a planet they have called Gliese 581d which is located in the star’s habitable zone which means it might be suitable for human life.
Scientists say that the 2014 research was based on ‘inadequate data’ and that this planet does in fact exist, and could prove to be the next best shot to look for alien life.
According to a recent study by British astronomers, we are looking at a smaller planet located in the habitable zone of its star. Experts believe that previous studies by the Pennsylvania State University were inadequate due to the methods used in the tests. Now, new research by the Queen Mary University in London claims to have better data which points to the existence of the planet.
Gliese 581 (the bright star shown in the centre), which is 22 light-years away, has three other confirmed planets, none of which lie within its habitable zone
‘The existence (or not) of GJ 581d is significant because it was the first Earth-like planet discovered in the ‘Goldilocks’-zone around another star and it is a benchmark case for the Doppler technique,’ said lead author, Dr Guillem Anglada-Escudé.
‘There are always discussions among scientists about the ways we interpret data but I’m confident that GJ 581d has been in orbit around Gliese 581 all along.
‘In any case, the strength of their statement was way too strong.
‘If their way to treat the data had been right, then some planet search projects at several ground-based observatories would need to be significantly revised as they are all aiming to detect even smaller planets.
According to experts, Gliese 581d is one of the first planets outside our solar system located I the Goldilocks zone around its star, which is basically an area where it in neither too hot nor too cold for life to exist.
NASA believes that in the next 15 years, we will find an exact replica of planet Earth, somewhere in the universe. This also means that it is very likely that in the next 15 years or so, intelligent life will be discovered somewhere in the cosmos, if of course, it hasn’t been already found.
Interestingly, RDF and Social Network BEBO used a telescope array in Ukraine to send a focused beam of data of around 500 messages from the public in form of radio waves towards Gliese 581.
This image from Mars Opportunity appears to show the face of what UFO enthusiasts say is an ancient God. NASA
For anyone scanning photos of Mars, the Red Planet can often seem like a house of mirrors.
Amid the dust and rocks, there have over the years been reports of what seem to be images of human faces, a spoon and, of course, the portrait of Mahatma Gandhi in profile.
Now, some UFO enthusiasts believe they have stumbled upon another humdinger – this one is a 2010 mage from Mars Opportunity rover that is said to resemble ancient Mesopotamian sculptures.The image was taken at a site called "Concepción Crater," a spot that had stumped scientists due to weird coatings on rocks near the crater.
The website, UFO Sightings Daily, brought this mysterious rock to light earlier in the week and seems convinced it is onto something. UFO Sightings Daily compares the image to that of ancient Mesopotamian sculpture
“Found these faces on Mars side by side. One is looking towards us and the other is looking to the left. The face looking at us has a lot of similarities to the ancient Mesopotamia faces,” Scott Waring said on UFO Sightings Daily, next to the photo.
NASA, for some reason, hasn’t appeared all that interested in exploring the mystery of the face.
"As you can probably tell, it is a natural rock at the disrupted rim of a small crater, not a sculpture made by some ancient culture," NASA spokesman Guy Webster told FoxNews.com in an email. "But it's great that people are using their imaginations and enjoying the full public access to every image taken by any Mars rover."
Instead, NASA is more concerned with directing the Curiosity Rover to a network of active dunes – as tall as a two-story building and as wide as a football field – that they will tell scientists something about the planet's current environment as well as the sandstone layers made from the dunes that turned into rock long ago.

Vreemd ‘gezicht van godheid’ gespot op Mars
Op een foto uit 2010 van Marsrover Opportunity zouden bouwsels zijn te zien die lijken op oude Mesopotamische beeldhouwwerken. Dat zeggen althans een aantal UFO-enthousiastelingen.
De foto is gemaakt in de Marskrater Concepción, een plek waar wetenschappers eerder al tot hun verbazing vreemde lagen op het gesteente aantroffen. De website UFO Sightings Daily vergeleek de afbeelding met de Mesopotamische beeldhouwkunst en zegt een verband te hebben gevonden.
“Heb deze gezichten op Mars gevonden,” schreef Scott Waring op de website. “Het ene kijkt onze kant op en het andere kijkt naar links. Het gezicht dat naar ons toekijkt doet erg denken aan oude Mesopotamische gezichten.”
CNET wijst op overeenkomsten met de Nieuw-Assyrische god Nabu, de god van wijsheid. NASA lijkt echter niet geïnteresseerd te zijn in het mysterie van het gezicht. “Zoals je waarschijnlijk al kunt zien gaat het om een natuurlijke rots aan de rand van een kleine krater en is het geen beeldhouwwerk van één of andere oude cultuur,” zei NASA-woordvoerder Guy Webster.
NASA heeft besloten Marsrover Curiosity naar een aantal actieve duinen te sturen die zo hoog zijn als een gebouw met twee verdiepingen.
Two Alien Orbs Recorded In Infrared In Military Bombing Video Of Syria, Nov 2015, Video, UFO Sighting News.
Two Alien Orbs Recorded In Infrared In Military Bombing Video Of Syria, Nov 2015, Video, UFO Sighting News
Date of sighting: November 2015 Location of sighting: Syria Some UFO Researchers in South America discovered a RT News video that was reporting about a drone bombing an area in Syria. During this report of the explosion two metallic orbs moved across the sky below the drone footage. These UFOs were there to watch and record the fighting, suffering, carnage that we humans put ourselves through. Notice that there are two orbs, so that they can watch out for one another in case one is damaged. These are alien military drones, since there are two together, its the same as USAF fighter jet pilots always having a wingman to keep them out of trouble. Alien military is watching humanities military. Thats a little disturbing. Scott C. Waring www.ufosightingsdaily.com

UFO Over Seal Beach, California Caught By Accident, Amazing Video, UFO Sighting News.
Date of sighting: August 10, 2014, reported Nov 2015 Location of sighting: Seal Beach, California, USA Source: MUFON #72632 This is a UFO report that just came in this week, however it occurred a year ago. Its only 2 seconds of footage and normally I would dismiss it, but it caught a UFO over Seal Beach in mid flight. That just cool. Scott C. Waring www.ufosightingsdaily.com Eyewitness states: I was just taking pictures while my partner was fishing. I didn't like the way the sand diapered from underneath my feet every time the tied rolled in and out so I turned my camera off on my iPad and proceeded to clime up the rocks off the beach. When I went to take more pictures I noticed my iPad was on, on video. It had taken a one second video in witch I have sent to you and what is unbelievable to me and every one I have shown. There was no actual witness and nothing was heard. Funny thing about the video is it only let me play it on the iPad for a while before I was able to copy it else where and the original copy would flicker with numbers but my iPad was stolen and this copy don't do that. You now have the only copy as it wont let me copy it again.
A majority of young people endorse the scientific explanation of how humans evolved.
By Rachel E. Gross

Few issues have divided the American public as bitterly as Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection. Since On the Origin of Species was published in 1859, it has driven a wedge between those who accept that humans and this planet’s other inhabitants have evolved over time, and those who believe that our species was created in its current form with no alterations. While the majority of people in Europe and in many other parts of the world accept evolution, the United States lags behind. Today, 4 in 10 adults in America believe that humans have existed in our present form since the beginning of time, and in many religious groups, that number is even higher. This is woeful.
Rachel E. Gross RACHEL E. GROSS Rachel E. Gross is a Slate editorial assistant.
Now, at long last, there seems to be hope: National polls show that creationism is beginning to falter, and Americans are finally starting to move in favor of evolution. After decades of legal battles, resistance to science education, and a deeply rooted cultural divide, evolution may be poised to win out once and for all.
The people responsible for this shift are the young. According to a recent Pew Research Center report, 73 percent of American adults younger than 30 expressed some sort of belief in evolution, a jump from 61 percent in 2009, the first year in which the question was asked. The number who believed in purely secular evolution (that is, not directed by any divine power) jumped from 40 percent to a majority of 51 percent. In other words, if you ask a younger American how humans arose, you’re likely to get an answer that has nothing to do with God.
The increase in younger people embracing evolution is “quite striking,” says Kenneth R. Miller, a biologist at Brown University and an expert witness the landmark court case Kitzmiller v. Dover, which kicked “intelligent design” out of public school classrooms in 2005. “We’re moving in the right direction.”
It’s not just the young who are moving in favor of secular evolution. The overall proportion of Americans who believe in secular evolution has doubled since 1999, from 9 percent to 19 percent, according to a 2014 Gallup poll. But it’s important to note that the jump in secular evolution does not necessarily correspond to an increase in the total number who believe in evolution. Instead, most of that increase has been drawn from the pool of Americans who previously reported that they believed in evolution guided by God, which simultaneously dropped from 40 percent to 31 percent.
* * *
Could these numbers be merely a blip—a stray mutation that will soon be weeded out of the population? Fortunately, there are several signs that these numbers do reflect a shifting cultural tide.
First, America is getting less religious. Today’s younger Americans no longer have the strong ties to organized religion that their parents did. About 56 million people now call themselves “nones” —meaning that they identify as atheist, agnostic, or nothing in particular on national surveys—a jump of 19 million since 2007, according to the 2014 Pew Research Center survey. Again, it’s the younger generation who are driving this shift: Fully 36 percent of young adults between 18 and 24 identify as nones, and the number of millennial adults who are religiously unaffiliated is growing fast.
That is not to say that religion doesn’t still exert a powerful hold on American identity; it does. However, the fact that fewer people are identifying with an organized religion is good news for science education, because many of those religions have historically opposed evolution.
Who are the people still perpetuating the view that evolution is a myth and that humans have existed basically as-is for the entirety of existence, which has lasted only about 10,000 years? By and large, they’re older Americans. About 34 percent of Americans 50 to 64 years old believe in creationism. For Americans older than 65, it’s 37 percent. From the perspective of people who endorse evolution, that’s a good thing—because, not to be insensitive, but old people die. When these elderly creationists shed their mortal coil, they will be replaced by that younger generation consisting increasingly of nones. The result: a steady phasing out of those who oppose evolution.
The gay rights movement had a word for this: generational momentum. “Which is a polite word for death,” says Evan Wolfson, the president and main architect behind Freedom to Marry. “That was our secret weapon: Old people die.”
Of course, old people dying wasn’t the only reason America finally made the historic decision this year to legalize same-sex marriage, Wolfson adds. To turn that cultural tide in such a short period of time, the supporters of gay marriage had to do something far more difficult: change deeply rooted attitudes and beliefs. Similarly, for the movement behind evolution to triumph, younger Americans who have been raised to believe in creationism need to be open to changing their minds. Fortunately, today’s generation is growing up in a time of greater open-mindedness and willingness to listen to evidence-based thinking, Wolfson says. Rather than being blinded by ideology, today’s young adults are open to evidence, facts, and reason. They want “information, not ideology.”
“Young people are growing up with a less ideological closed mind,” Wolfson told me. “Which is what a lot of the anti-evolution, anti–climate evolution, anti–climate change thinking is: It’s an ideology. It’s a refusal to engage with reality. Hopefully what we’re seeing here is that younger people are less prone to that. They’re allowing themselves to see the reality in front of them, as opposed to shutting their eyes on the basis of ideological denial. … They’re growing up in the midst of the conversation, growing up in the midst of reality, being open to reality, and not simply refusing to see what’s in front of you.”
There are many reasons for this shift. One is improving science education (more on that later). But another is that, in some ways, they don’t have a choice, argues Daniel Dennett, co-director of the Center for Cognitive Studies at Tufts University and co-author of Caught in the Pulpit: Leaving Belief Behind. He credits the rise of the Internet and the fact that today’s young people are more interconnected than ever before. “What is particularly corrosive to religion isn’t just the newly available information that can be unearthed by the curious,” Dennett wrote in April, in an op-ed entitled “Why the Future of Religion is Bleak” in the Wall Street Journal, “but the ambient knowledge that is shared by the general populace.”
This Is What Extraterrestrial Life Would Look Like
This Is What Extraterrestrial Life Would Look Like
1. Primordial Soup
TheBrownWelsh/YouTube
Let’s be honest with ourselves here, as much as we’d love to find a whizzy alien race with star-mining technology and awesome spaceships, but if we do ever find them, the chances are that they’ll be in the form of microbial sludge.
Soz.
Hey, we’ve all got to start somewhere. We were all microbial sludge at one point (go into any city centre on a Friday night and you might conclude that we haven’t moved on much) and now we have arms and legs and faces and spaceships.
Just give it a few billion years and we could finally get our civilised alien race, even if we did have to wait a bit for them to grow up.
It could be that one day in the far distant future, those little microbes will have grown up into walking, talking life forms and will look out to the stars and see one of our super-advanced generation ships fly past.
2. All Around Us (In A Different Dimension)
We spend most of our time pointing our telescopes at dim, distant objects in the sky, in the hope that one day we’ll see a little alien waving back (that’s how astronomy works, right?)
However, there is a theory floating around that the aliens could be all around us, just in a different dimension. This is also another contender for the “reasons why we haven’t been contacted” category, as it’s pretty difficult to communicate across dimensions.
The interdimensional hypothesis is commonly used by Ufologists as a way of explaining how alien spacecraft can appear to wink in and out of existence (don’t let that put you off though).
To consider another dimension, you have to think about moving in another direction in addition to up, down, left and right.
It’s quite difficult to get your head around what a four-dimensional projection into three-dimensional space would look like, you would essentially see a three-dimensional cross section of it moving and shifting through space. The best way to think about it is to scale it back to the second and third dimensions and imagine what it would look like to a two-dimensional being if you put your hand through the 2D plane that they live on.
The venerable Carl Sagan explains it in the video above.
The interdimensional hypothesis gets a bit muddied by everybody from ghost hunters to theoretical physicists using it to try to understand the universe.
Could it be that the aliens are all throwing big, four-dimensional parties without us?
