Ancient Dust Found in Meteorites Came from Exploding Stars
Ancient Dust Found in Meteorites Came from Exploding Stars
by Mindy Weisberger, Senior Writer

Microscopic dust grains extracted from meteorites that landed on Earth had ancient and explosive origins, scientists have discovered.
The dust grains — also known as presolar grains, since they're older than Earth's sun — were likely spewed out by stars that blew up hundreds of millions of years before Earth's solar system formed. And in a new analysis of data collected from these tiny particles, researchers have come closer to pinpointing the type of stellar blast that produced the dust, 5 billion years ago.
To trace the origins of the stardust's subatomic "fingerprints," scientists built computer models simulating the explosive conditions that could have produced them, to test whether the dust grains' point of origin might have been an exploding white dwarf star in a double-star system. [Images: Dust Grains from Interstellar Space]
Ancient grains
This study adds to decades of analysis devoted to puzzling out the age and origins of these presolar grains, according to study co-author Christopher Wrede.
Wrede, an assistant professor of physics at Michigan State University, told Live Science in an email that researchers look at the grains' isotopes — variations of an element that have different numbers of neutrons. About a dozen grains held a great deal of the isotope silicon-30, which has been linked to a certain type of stellar explosion called a classical nova.
Classical novas — stellar eruptions that happen in a binary, or paired, star system — are different from supernovas, Wrede said, in that they are a type of explosion that can happen over and over again. The smaller star in a pair, a white dwarf, steals fuel from its larger neighbor, heating up its own surface and eventually blasting dust and gas into space.
"After a classical nova, the white dwarf can continue to siphon fuel from the companion and ignite again," Wrede said. "In a supernova, the entire star explodes, so it can only happen once."
Going nuclear
When Earth's solar system was forming, collisions heated and mixed the building blocks of dust and gas, cooking them uniformly so that they shared many of the same isotopes. Grains with unusual isotopes — like silicon-30, which is rare on Earth — stand out, Wrede explained. "This tells us that they must have been produced prior to the formation of the solar system," dating back around 5 billion years, Wrede said.
According to Wrede, the high quantities of silicon-30 compared to other silicon isotopes in the grains suggested that they originated in a classical nova, but he and his colleagues were unsure just how much silicon-30 they could expect to see, relative to the other isotopes, if a classical nova were responsible. Their experiments revealed a new pathway for a nuclear reaction that would affect the amount of silicon-30 produced, and will help determine if the amount of silicon-30 in the dust grains is a match.
"The pathway seems to be a strong one, but we'll need to do more experiments to find out how strong," Wrede told Live Science.
Like the overwhelming majority of the world’s astronomers and scientists, I do not discount the possibility that we are not alone in the universe. Most likely we are not alone, even though we still have no definite evidence for it.
(I am talking about already fully developed, sentient intelligent life…….not just micro-organisms under development).
Here is my favorite quote from Arthur C. Clarke:
“Two possibilities exist…….either we are alone in the universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying“.
2. On UFOs (as physical alien spacecraft) and Aliens (as physical extraterrestrial beings having visited or are visiting our Earth) :
Like the overwhelming majority of the world’s astronomers and scientists, I have been skeptical about it since around 1978, when I first began to devour books by John A. Keel and Dr. Jacques Vallee.
Until then I was a strong supporter of physical, nuts-and-bolts Extraterrestrial Hypothesis.
3. IS THERE A GOVERNMENT UFO COVER-UP?
Just like Col. John Alexander, I am skeptical about the government having intentionally covered up UFO information.
I totally agree with the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy that:
“The U.S. government has no evidence that an extraterrestrial presence has contacted or engaged any member of the human race.
In addition, there is no credible information to suggest that any evidence is being hidden from the public’s eye.
Many scientists and mathematicians have looked with a statistical mindset at the question of whether life likely exists beyond Earth and have come to the conclusion that the odds are pretty high that somewhere among the trillions and trillions of stars in the universe there is a planet other than ours that is home to life.
Many have also noted, however, that the odds of us making contact with any of them – especially any intelligent ones – are extremely small, given the distances involved.
But that’s all statistics and speculation.
The fact is:
WE HAVE NO CREDIBLE EVIDENCE OF EXTRATERRESTRIAL PRESENCE HERE ON EARTH”.
4. IS THERE ALIEN TECHNOLOGY AT AREA 51?
I am highly skeptical about it.
Over the years, Area 51 has become a social, cultural and psychological phenomenon.
It has become an integral part of the UFO subculture in America and the world.
I am one of the original Team Members of the world’s largest reality-based online resource on Area 51: http://www.dreamlandresort.com

5. IS THERE A U.S./ALIEN UNDERGROUND BASE IN DULCE, NEW MEXICO?
I am highly skeptical about it.
However, I am open to a speculation that at one time, there may have been some type of a small, remote, off-site CIA-operated aircraft test facility on the northern slope of Mount Archuleta close to the Colorado stateline (possibly Redding Ranch).

6. ON MAJOR CONSPIRACIES:
I remain skeptical about major, large-scale globally-orchestrated conspiracies.
To some folks, belief in conspiracies seems to be more comforting than reality (as we understand reality to be).
7. ON THE UFO PHENOMENON:
The phenomenon “seems” to be real, just as Dr. J. Allen Hynek and Dr. Jacques Vallee have stated.
However, I still do not know for sure and I will keep on searching.
I do not know the true nature of this phenomenon.
I would like to meet anyone who knows the true nature of this phenomenon.
8. IS RELIGION PART OF PSEUDOSCIENCE?
Yes, in a way, religion is part of pseudoscience because it involves belief.
Religion is not science. Religion is religion. Science is science.
9. MY RELIGIOUS BELIEF:
I believe there is a God and that he has given to each of us his plan in this life and the life to come.
10. WHO ARE MY HEROES IN SCIENCE?
Carl Sagan, Stephen Hawking, Arthur C. Clarke, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Seth Shostak and countless number of others.
They gave us an understanding of what science is.
My favorite quote is from Stephen Hawking: “The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge”.
DO I AGREE TOTALLY WITH THEM?
I do not agree with them on religion.
To believe is human.
Carl Sagan said “I don’t want to believe…..I want to know”.
However, I say “I want to believe until I know for sure…..and I also want to know more”.
THE BOTTOM LINE:
Although I try my best to remain open-minded, I am a UFO skeptic in the sense that I am skeptical that UFOs represent actual physical extraterrestrial visitations in physical extraterrestrial spacecraft piloted by physical extraterrestrial entities.
But that does not mean that I am not interested in Ufology and UFO culture.
In fact, in my opinion, this is one of the most fascinating study topics in terms ofHuman Psychology and beliefs.
By the way, the term “UFO“ (a confusing term perhaps haphazzardly coined by the Air Force) is totally ambiguous, meaningless and divisive.
“Unidentified” is only relevant to the observer.
(An aerial phenomenon that cannot be identified? “Cannot be identified” by whom?)
Likewise, “flying” is only relevant to the observer.
Many reported descriptions fall more into the category of “disappearing” or “dematerializing” rather than “flying” as we know it.
Some say that reality is only relevant to each perceiver.
Even though I remain skeptical about physical aliens ever having physically visited our Earth, I must admit the possibility that reality may not be what it seems.
(I like Dr. Jacques Vallee’s description: “the things we call ‘unidentified flying objects’ may neither be objects nor flying”).
Although my highest respect goes to men of science, such as the late Carl Sagan,Stephen Hawking, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Seth Shostak, etc., etc., ad infinitum, I have never regretted the fact that throughout all these years I have somehow gotten myself involved in the weird field of “Ufology” because I still say that this is a strange world we’re living in and that there are still so many things we don’t really know about our world and our vast universe, including the question: What is reality?

Northern Lights Illuminate European Sky
Northern Lights Illuminate European Sky
by Knvul Sheikh, Staff Writer
Northern lights, also known as aurora borealis, appear as white streaks over Iceland, the North Atlantic and Norway in this satellite view. Credit: NASA Earth Observatory
A NASA satellite caught a glimpse of the spectacular aurora borealis phenomenon from above on March 7, as stargazers across northern Europe viewed the brilliant shades of green and pink from their backyards.
Using a low-light sensor on the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS), the Suomi NPP satellite captured a view of the aurora, revealing streaks over Iceland, England, Scotland and Norway. The sensor detects dim light signals such as airglow, gas flares, city lights, and reflected moonlight but since the sensor does not distinguish between different colors of light, the aurora appears white. The image was released by NASA's Earth Observatory this week.
The aurora borealis, also known as northern lights, is a vivid demonstration of Earth's magnetic field interacting with charged particles from the sun. The charged particles are created when protons and electrons stream out from the sun's surface in massive eruptions, known as coronal mass ejections, and rush toward Earth in a steady stream called the solar wind. The solar wind slams into Earth's magnetic field, creating disturbances in the atmosphere. [Aurora Photos: Northern Lights Dazzle in Night-Sky Images]
These storms from the sun energize particles already trapped in the magnetic field surrounding Earth. The electrons then race down Earth's magnetic field lines and crash into the gases at high altitudes. They impart energy to molecules of oxygen and nitrogen gases, thereby exciting electrons in the gas molecules. As the excited electrons return to their normal state, they release photons — small bursts of energy — in the form of light. Oxygen gives off a green color and nitrogen produces blue or red colors.
But it's not often that these psychedelic lights are visible south of Scotland. According to NASA, this geomagnetic storm reached a G3, or "severe," level on NOAA's geomagnetic storm scale, coloring night skies over a much wider swath of northern Europe as a result.

WATCH LIVE MONDAY @ 5:31 a.m. ET: ExoMars Launch to Red Planet
By SPACE.com Staff
The first phase of the European-led ExoMars mission is scheduled to launch toward the Red Planet Monday (March 14) at 5:31 a.m. EDT (0931 GMT) atop a Russian Proton-M rocket from Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. Watch the liftoff live in the window below, courtesy of the European Space Agency (ESA):
You can also watch ESA's launch webcast directly here:
Monday's launch will send the Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO) and the Schiaparelli lander toward Mars; both craft will arrive at the Red Planet in October. If all goes according to plan, TGO will study the Martian atmosphere for five years, with an emphasis on hunting for sources of methane, a gas that could be produced by Martian lifeforms (if any exist).
Schiaparelli will touch down on the planet on Oct. 19, proving out entry, descent and landing technologies needed for the next phase of ExoMars — a life-hunting rover that's scheduled to blast off in 2018.
Next International Space Station Crew: NASA hosted a press conference at 2 p.m. EST (1900 GMT) Wednesday introducing the upcoming Expedition 48/49 crew, including first-time NASA flier Kate Rubins. You can watch it here, courtesy of NASA TV:
From NASA:
"Rubins, Ivanishin and Onishi will launch to the space station aboard the Soyuz MS-01 spacecraft Thursday, June 21, from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. The trio will join Expedition 48 Commander Jeff Williams of NASA, and cosmonauts Oleg Skripochka and Alexey Ovchinin of Roscosmos, already on the station conducting research.
During their four-month mission, the station crew members will facilitate approximately 250 research investigations and technology demonstrations not possible on Earth in order to advance scientific knowledge of Earth, space, physical, and biological sciences. Science conducted on the space station continues to yield benefits for humanity and will enable future long-duration human and robotic exploration into deep space, including the agency’s Journey to Mars."

A rocket engine that helped launch five space shuttle missions, including the penultimate flight of the program in 2011, was fired again on Thursday (March 10) in preparation for the first crewed flight of NASA's new heavy-lift rocket.
The space agency successfully test fired the RS-25 rocket engine for a full 500 seconds, clearing a milestone toward its exploration goals. The next time that particular engine, serial number 2059, fires for that length of time, it will be to launch astronauts on NASA's first crewed mission beyond Earth orbit since the last of the Apollo moon missions more than 45 years ago.
"What a great moment for NASA," said Rick Gilbrech, the director of NASA's Stennis Space Center in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi, where Thursday's hot-fire test took place. "We have exciting days ahead with a return to deep space and a journey to Mars, and this test is a very big step in that direction." [Photos: NASA's Space Launch System for Deep Space Flights]
The 8-minute-long firing marked the first test of an RS-25 flight engine for NASA's new Space Launch System (SLS) rocket, being built to carry humans on future missions into the solar system, including to the moon's vicinity and Mars. Four of the engines, formerly known as space shuttle main engines (SSME), will help power the SLS core stage.
The engines NASA will use for the initial SLS missions are from the 16 flight articles remaining from the retired shuttle program. No. 2059 last flew as one of the three engines on the final flight of the space shuttle Endeavour, STS-134, in May 2011. The mission was the second-to-last flight for the orbiter fleet overall.
Prior to that, SSME 2059 helped launch the shuttle Atlantis on three missions, including two to the International Space Station — STS-117 in 2007 and STS-122 in 2008 — and on the final mission to upgrade the Hubble Space Telescope, STS-125 in 2009. It also helped power Endeavour's STS-130 flight to deliver the Tranquility node and cupola to the space station in 2010.
"It's a great feeling that this engine — that has carried so many astronauts into space before — is being prepared to take astronauts to space once again on SLS's first crewed flight," stated Steve Wofford, engines manager at Marshall Space Flight Center in Alabama, where the Space Launch System program is managed for NASA.
Modified for use on SLS, no. 2059 and three other shuttle-legacy RS-25D engines will fire at 109 percent thrust level and provide a combined two million pounds of thrust when they fly in the 2020s. Unlike on the shuttle, they will not be recovered for reuse, but instead be dropped into the ocean with the spent SLS core.
The RS-25 engine No. 2059 arrives at the A-1 Test Stand at NASA's Stennis Space Center on Nov. 4, 2015. The engine was test fired on March 10, 2016.

The first flight of the SLS on NASA's uncrewed Exploration Mission-1 (EM-1) is slated for 2018 or 2019. The first SLS launch with astronauts aboard an Orion crew spacecraft is targeted for the 2021 to 2023 timeframe, depending in part on available funding.
Stennis and Aerojet Rocketdyne, NASA's prime contractor for the RS-25, will next conduct a development engine hot-fire series to test flight engine controllers and will continue to test RS-25 flight engines.
In addition, the B-2 Test Stand at Stennis is being readied to test the SLS core stage for EM-1, firing its four engines together. EM-1 will lift off using engines 2045, 2056, 2058 and 2060, a group that includes two of the three SSMEs that flew on board STS-135, the final shuttle mission, in July 2011.
In addition to 2059, EM-2 will launch with RS-25 engines 2047, the third engine flown on STS-135, and two engines that were built up after the space shuttle was retired, 2062 and 2063.
Planet-Sized Spheres Visiting The Solar System by the Thousands
Planet-Sized Spheres Visiting The Solar System by the Thousands
NASA’s Secret Discovered: Sun Cruisers
Slides and Commentary from David Wilcock’s Presentation at the Conscious Life Expo
By Shem El-Jamal
This year’s Conscious Life Expo brought many new revelations, and much more is said to be on the way. One of the subjects discussed was the arrival of the large, planet-sized, spherical ships that began arriving in our solar system during the 1980’s.
The first of these spheres came in the early 1980’s, and as it did, it began to orbit each planet one by one. It started with Pluto, then moved to Neptune, and then Uranus. Due to this pattern of motion, this first sphere was termed “The Seeker”.
This sphere had two portals–one on each side. According to David Wilcock, these portals were measured to be 800 miles wide each. Three different insiders came to Wilcock with corroborating intel with regard to these details.
One strange issue with this sphere was that it would not respond to any attempts at communication. It was hailed numerous times by Solar Warden ships, but no answer was given, accept, “We are peaceful explorers”. The Solar Warden ship basically responded with the message, “GTFO”.
The people within the cabal/Illuminati thought that these spheres were their own “gods” returning to help them establish their New World Order, but of course, they were wrong.
These spheres continued to arrive, but their appearances became more numerous around 2012.
These are the images that were displayed at Wilcock and Goode’s presentation at this year’s CLE. They were originally collected by SOHO (Solar Heliospheric Observatory), a NASA platform.
There are a few things to note when viewing SOHO images like this. There is a circular shield over the lens. This shield is present so that the lens doesn’t get overloaded, but also because the telescope is designed to observe occurrences around the sun as opposed to the sun itself.
You’ll find it very interesting when viewing images and feeds like this, that each and every time something shows up in them that may be a UFO or some unexplainable issue, NASA will quickly take the feed offline and claim that there was a malfunction of some kind. However, these images were captured before NASA had a chance to do this.
Most everything in this image looks normal, but the long bars in this frame should definitely not be there. The circle is normal. The coronal discharges are normal, but the bars… Those are foreign objects.
This image was taken September 22, 1999. It shows some type of large sphere which appeared to be almost as large as the sun itself. This sphere seems to be accelerating toward the sun, and if you look closely, you can see evidence of acceleration as this apparently-large object encounters the sun’s gravity.
The skeptic might try to say that the lens got smudged, or that the telescope was jostled by an object that hit it, but this is an array that is miles above the surface of the Earth. Its trajectory and orientation are maintained by state-of-the-art equipment, gyros, and telemetric feeds that make sure it is oriented properly. There are no objects anywhere near it that could jostle it, bump, or smudge it in any way. The reason it shows an object is because the object is present.
NASA doesn’t want you to see images like this, but still many are able to come through.
Objects like this are termed “sun cruisers”. They are typically planet sized spheres that do not follow the trajectory that any planet should follow. (Planets can be identified by the way they stay on the central, horizontal axis of the lens, or the “elliptic”.)
Planets are not supposed to be below the central plane. Also, the lines on the sides of this UFO are indicative of a CCD overload, or an overload of the digital, optical systems. When these overloads occur, it means that the object is so bright that it overloads the optical sensors, just like the sun would if the lens weren’t protected by the circular shield.
This is also a spherical object (either one or many) that should not be there. The image was taken December 23, 1999.
This may be space debris. That is a possibility, but given the other evidence we have shown, that’s probably not the case.
It could also be craft traveling past the SOHO array. This would definitely be a time when NASA would have an “unfortunate malfunction” and take their equipment offline. As this is the typical NASA response.
February 2, 2005…
Anyone who understands particular movement in space, knows that this is not at all space dust. Particles in space move at a single vector. They don’t turn, or change direction at all, unless something causes this directional change artificially (hens the law of inertia).
This is a very large object. Again, it looks to be the size of the sun itself, and not only that, it is moving at an extremely high rate of speed. It is also making intelligent course corrections as it moves. It’s moving fast enough to streak the lens, and far away enough that its trail drastically reduces in size.
This is not debris, and it is not space dust. It is likely a craft of some kind, which, at times, seems to be as bright as the sun…
Pour la première fois, la NASA observe quelque chose sortir d’un trou noir
Pour la première fois, la NASA observe quelque chose sortir d’un trou noir
Si il y a bien une chose qu’Interstellar retranscrit correctement à propos des trous noirs, c’est que personne ne comprend vraiment ce qu’il en est. Plus sérieusement, nous ne comprenons pas toute la physique associée à ces objets massifs. Nous ne les comprenons pas entièrement et nous ne savons pas ce qui est possible ou non. Nous pensions que leur masse était telle que même la lumière, pourtant dépourvue de masse, était sensible à leur force de gravitation (cette force dépend de la masse des deux objets et de la distance qui les sépare). On pensait aussi que cette force de gravitation était telle que rien de pouvait y échapper, pas même les ondes électromagnétiques. Rendant l’étude des trous noirs très compliquée.
Pourtant, il y a quelques jours, la NASA a fait une observation pour le moins étrange concernant un trou noir supermassif : Markarian 335. Deux des télescopes de la NASA dont le NuSTAR, un télescope étudiant les rayons X à haute énergie autour des trous noirs. Ce télescope a, un peu miraculeusement, réussi à capturer l’émission massive de plasma et de rayons X depuis le trou noir vers l’extérieur.
Pour le principal auteur de l’article scientifique qui fait état de cette découverte :
“Cela va nous aider à comprendre comment les trous noirs alimentent certains des objets les plus brillants de l’univers.”
Les équipes de chercheurs qui planchent sur le sujet ne savent pas vraiment de quelle nature est la source d’énergie. Cependant l’enregistrement de ce phénomène aidera sûrement les scientifiques à en apprendre un peu plus sur les spécificités de ce trou noir et sur ces derniers en général.
Pour ceux qui se poseraient la question de savoir si il ne faudrait pas s’inquiéter d’un tel phénomène, pas d’inquiétude, le trou noir ne se trouve pas tout à fait à coté de nous : 324 millions d’année lumière plus loin en fait. Notre recoin de l’univers ne devrait pas trop être inquiété donc.
Graham Hancock is continuing the rogue archeological tradition of Chariots of the Gods by Erik von Daniken and more recently the Ancient Aliens series on the History Channel, but this very sober presentation has profound implications.
First it takes on conventional historical “fact” and turns it on its head by addressing the newly discovered astrophysical and geological findings that a cataclysmic extinction event – presumably a strike by a comet similar to what wiped out the dinosaurs – also happened between 11-12,000 years ago, with the date probably being narrowed down to around 11,800 years.
Hancock goes through the very credible conventional scientific proofs in superb detail with supporting photos.
He then lines up this timeline with accounts from Plato about the abrupt disappearance of Atlantis, and makes the startling determination that the two events coincided.
He suggests that Plato’s account of the sinking of Atlantis by a cataclysmic flood, as described in mythical accounts around the world, actually occurred as a result of this comet.
What happens next is amazing – he connects this event with the sudden appearance of immense and scientifically sophisticated megalithic structures around the world, most dramatically Gobekli Tepe in Turkey and of course the pyramids of Giza and Mexico – and the Sphinx.
More recently Indonesia has been the site of controversy over the halted excavation (by archeologists jealous of geologists) of another massive ancient pyramid at Gunung Padang which Hancock says can be dated for approximately the same time period–and certainly before recorded “history.”
His contention is that these megaliths were the attempts of the survivors of Atlantis to preserve their vast knowledge and he asks the most interesting question:
How is it that these megaliths appeared out of nowhere, suddenly, amid the hunter gatherer “primitive” humans of the time at the beginning of agrarian revolutions and the evolution of a technologically advanced culture, rather than at the end?
For example, in Egypt, if his findings are correct, the Sphinx and Great Pyramid preceded the great dynasties of Egyptian pharaohs, and subsequent structures were in fact less advanced. Their civilizationsdeclined rather than advanced after the presumed appearance of the Atlanteans.
(This coincides with Gurdjieff’s suggestion that he had seen a map of pre-sand Egypt and that his teachings came from a “Lost Christianity.”)
In other words, the apex of these civilizations were at their origin — they did not evolve but rather declined.
More importantly, they were the remnants of a superior and advanced civilization that was destroyed in “prehistory,” and the actual “facts” of human history are completely different from what we have been told or led to believe.
This would lead us to question all of our conditioned belief systems based on these conventional “truths” — particularly the organized religions that were loosely based on fragmentary and erroneous interpretations of flawed historical accounts and junk science.
Hancock concluded his presentation with a very powerful summary and conclusion — he suggested that the demise of Atlantis came when their advanced science turned their attention outward for greater external control and material gain, and that “the universe slapped it down” with the comet.
Hancock also concluded that such astronomical events are not nearly as rare as NASA would have us believe, and that while none of the known asteroids and comets are on a collision course with Earth, we only have identified 1% of all of the potential threatening objects in the solar system.
He showed how twice each year the Earth crosses “the freeway” of threatening objects in June and November, and that is when the potential for another extinction event would be most acute.
Hancock suggested that our current advanced scientific civilization is at a similar cusp and we have a choice — to either continue the egoic manipulation and plunder of our planet for selfish goals, or to coordinate a worldwide effort to save our present civilization by rerouting any dangerous objects from their current orbits—and creating a new era of worldwide cooperation and thereby ushering in a new phase of human (collective) evolution.
This resonates deeply with one of my favorite videos by Eckhart Tolle in which he is asked about the evolutionary “purpose” of the ego.
Eckhart beautifully places the development of the ego (and the human brain) within the context of an evolutionary order beyond our current comprehension. I would suggest that this infinite intelligence is sourced within the “Allness” of our universe and may have been an energetic force that slapped down Atlantis–but that is merely my own conjecture).
But this contextual aspect of the Ego (intellect) as evolutionary is conveyed in the first chapter of A New Earthwhere he describes the awakening (flowering) of the first lotus after millions of years of just leafy pods. Similarly, such an evolutionary awakening would now allow us as a species to transcend the intellect and harmonize our entire Being — to evolve past our egoic patterns of individualism to a global consciousness in line with the evolutionary order of Life itself–and align our own intentions as a species with the energetic impulse of the Universe.
You might have thought a defining characteristic of a UFO would be visibility. But thanks to zealous alien hunters doggedly scanning the sky with night-vision cameras, a new class of flying objects that only emit infrared light has emerged from the darkness. Are they spies from the great beyond?
“Some people claim to see actual battles between UFOs up in the sky, using night-vision equipment,” the ufologist Robert Sheaffer told Life’s Little Mysteries. “Those devices magnify faint objects so much that the sky seems to be filled with invisible UFOs. In reality, of course, they are seeing owls, bats, moths, airplanes, satellites, etc.” Night-vision optics trade low resolution for high sensitivity, he explained, so that points of light (such as distant satellites) spill out into circles that make the objects appear huge.
However, some of the invisible UFOs out there really are spies of a sort — or whatever else you choose to call military drones. [7 Things Most Often Mistaken for UFOs]
Consider, for example, an invisible triangle UFO recently caught on camera by the Laredo Paranormal Research Society, a Texas group. In their footage, captured using an infrared-sensitive third-generation night-vision camera and posted to YouTube July 13, an object composed of three evenly spaced glowing orbs streaked southward across the field of view and disappeared behind the roof of a house.
According to LPRS founder Ismael Cuellar, the “infrared-cloaked” object could not be seen with the naked eye, and cruised silently. “[We] have ruled out birds, bugs, airplanes, helicopters, and even flying drones by comparing them side by side as a point of reference,” Cuellar told Life’s Little Mysteries. This seems to leave just one explanation: It’s a cloaked alien spaceship.
Not so, according to Ben McGee, a geo scientist, aerospace consultant, UFO skeptic and lead field researcher on the National Geographic series “Chasing UFOs.” In McGee’s opinion, all the signs point to this object being a border patrol drone with infrared anti-collision or identification lights. Here’s why he thinks so.
“Nearly one-third of traffic through the nearby Laredo International Airport has historically been military in nature. Laredo is very near to the Mexican border. The military is increasingly using drones to assist with border security, which are small, quiet, and dim (to the naked eye) aircraft,” McGee wrote in an email, adding that most drones are also triangular. [UFO Sightings Are 3,615 Times More Common than Voter Fraud]
This alleged drone over saturated the camera’s infrared sensor. Why? “Particularly with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), anti collision systems are of the utmost importance,” he wrote. “One custom UAV lighting manufacturer recently announced custom infrared navigation lights for a major UAV defense contractor. Using these lights in ‘constant-on’ infrared mode would make the tail, belly, and wingtips extraordinarily bright in infrared, washing out the shape of the aircraft in-between.”
And that description pretty closely matches the case.
“In short,” McGee said, “high-intensity/close-range infrared lights interacting with a sensitive infrared camera is the problem — turning an aircraft into a triangular blob — rather than the infrared camera being the solution to revealing invisible triangles or pyramids zooming about our airspace.”

First contact? Stranded ‘alien being’ pleads with UFO investigators for help
First contact? Stranded ‘alien being’ pleads with UFO investigators for help
A BIZARRE report has been filed with the world’s biggest UFO research organisation claiming to be from a body-snatching extraterrestrial being stranded on Earth.
MUFON has received a report from someone alleging to be an alien stranded on earth
The US-based Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) is the world’s biggest organisation for logging and investigating UFO sightings and alleged alien encounters, so is used to its fair share of weirdness.
But this is believed to the first report made to it alleging to be from an intelligent alien life form.
The organisation receives its fair share of hoax reports that it has to sift through, so that explanation will probably be the most likely if it choses to investigate the case.
The ‘alien’ said in its bizarre report to MUFON it usually existed as an electromagnetic wave which hijacked physical bodies or even human beings.
It said: “I’m an extraterrestrial being adopted by humankind.
“You can call me Mogay.”
Whoever filed the report claims to be a being of magnetic energy waves
It went on to say in broken English that a disaster on another celestial body had caused it and others to seek refuge on Earth.
It said: “We were stay as electromagnetic wave and normally use replaceable bodies to work.
“A celestial body made most of our equipment can’t work.
“We tried to make it get away from Matif, but we failed and that celestial body hit the Matif.
“Although the adverse effects of celestial body had gone when it knocked out of its orbit, but it’s no more time for us to took refuge with transfer system.
“The disaster on Matif made us arrive on the Earth.”

Space Camera Balloon Project
Space Camera Balloon Project
After researching the camera issue, i have heard gopro and other sports cameras have a fisheye lens on them. Sooo, to rule out people saying its a fish eye lens i am going to not use those cameras. I will be using smart phones with a high capacity micro sd card onboard to record the footage. everyone has a smart phone and you can pick those up cheap and they dont bend the videos they record. on the plus side it also means because you can get them really cheap on ebay, i will put 5 onboard. both sides of the box and one facing up that way theres full view if theres any thing in space we shouldnt be seeing. i will go away now and re calculate the funding needed and update this on sunday with a new total. ( should be cheaper)
I came up with the idea to rule out those theories of earth being " FLAT ". What i plan to do it send the strongest weather balloon up into space ( or near space ) and get some video footage of space. I would also like to do this just as its getting dark to get some footage of the stars in the horizon and the sun setting the other side which would be awesome.
This is where you come in my friend. Donate as much as you can to make this happen. YOU WILL be part of the project and id like you to post your ideas for this project on our facebook group right here >>> CLICK HERE!
The Group Is About Recording UFO's In Night Vision and Astronomy. I have a youtube channel aswell which you can catch here >>> https://www.youtube.com/BritishDisclosureChannel
Im not asking for much like some youtubers out there. This is a one off project that can put this silly theory to bed once and for all. The camera will be a gopro with NO fisheye Lenses on it. so that rules that theory out for the bend in the video.
Here is a break down of the parts needed for the project.
Extra large balloon (2000g) <<< im upgrading to 3000g Satellite Locator (requires quick and easy subscription) + SMS Locator 2 x SMS Locator space box parachute radar reflector cord launch pad hose Go Pro Camera Which Wasnt Included So Bumps The Cost Up Slightly.
If We Hit The Target, I Plan On Others. Maybe Do The Same Again But Put 2 Balloons On And Lots Of Cameras.
What About A NightVision Camera To Launch In The Dark?
The Ideas Are Endless, So Become A Part Of This Project.
If anyone wants to be part of this awesome project then PLEASE join our forum or facebook group. Links Are Below To Those.
Le 5 Janvier 2015, la NASA dévoila une image de la galaxie d’Andromède, qui est la galaxie la plus proche de nous avec le télescope Hubble de la NASA/ESA. Ensuite, ils ont utilisé ce même télescope, mais cette fois-ci à un tout autre niveau. Ils ont pris 411 photos et les ont assemblés pour créer la plus grande image jamais prise.

Nikola Tesla: Maverick, Visionary And Master of Light
Nikola Tesla: Maverick, Visionary And Master of Light
Oh,…the wisdom of Tesla! Not interested in political or financial rewards, Tesla transformed society with his inventions. Accessing hidden truths and offering them generously to mankind, Tesla was torn apart by the vultures of democracy and hoarders of money.
Remarkable was Tesla’s life. His key observations and aptitude for working out the mechanics of the mysteries hidden within the micro world of physics reflects the genius of this man.
Yet, being born during the industrial revolution… and owning a generous and compassionate heart, Tesla was ruthlessly taken advantage of by the same corporate giants that rule our lives in the 21st century.
If we wish to conceive a world, free of economic, political and environmental destruction, it is good to know fully his story.
If we do not search our history for truth, we see life only we have been indoctrinated.
“The scientists of today think deeply instead of clearly. One must be sane to think clearly, but one can think deeply and be quite insane.” -Nikola Tesla
The documentary you are about to watch reveals the full history of the injustices done to Tesla by the greed of the industrial moguls. And it is in our present society, at the end of the industrial era, that these truth are being brought forth with a vindication worthy of all humanity’s current efforts to end political, economic and environmental destruction of our planet.
Nikola Tesla’s Biography and Life New Full Documentary 2016 (1:26:22)
The Magical Intuition Of Tesla
Tesla’s ideas were often conceived and perfected in his mind’s eye in an instant.
“Birth, growth and development are phases normal and natural,” said Tesla, but, “It was different with my invention(s). In the very moment I became conscious of it, I ‘saw’ it fully developed and perfected…”
In fact these extraordinary powers of memory and visualization were to characterize much of his life and work.
A Youth Of The Industrial Revolution
Visionaries were creating the mechanical foundation of our world. Life was changing drastically and Tesla was at the heart of engineering a better world for everyone.
Tesla was a scientific visionary. Among his early accomplishments are the fluorescent bulb and neon lights; the speedometer and the car ignition system; the basic scientific principles behind electron microscopes; and microwave heating.
Nikola Tesla And Thomas Edison
Upon his arrival into America from Croatia, Tesla remarked on the american mechanics being developed within the emerging industrial complex…
“What I had left was beautiful, artistic and fascinating in every way.” He wrote to a friend: “What I saw here [is] machined, rough and unattractive.”
Upon arrival, Tesla presented a letter of introduction to Thomas Edison written by Charles Batchelor – one of Edison’s business associates in Europe.
Tesla worked a short time for Edison.
Once established into an american life, Tesla gave notice to Edison and left to continue his own inventions.
Within months, he filed for seven US patents, which included a complete system of generators, transformers, transmission lines, motors and lighting.
So original were the patents that they were issued without a challenge, as would normally happen. They turned out to be the most valuable patents since the telephone.
Nikola Tesla And GE Mogul, George Westinghouse
Pittsburgh industrialist George Westinghouse heard about Tesla’s inventions and decided to investigate for himself.
Acting on his sharp business instincts, Westinghouse arrived at Tesla’s lab, inspected the inventions and promptly bought the patents, which ironically were to lay the foundations for the Westinghouse Corporation, one of the pillars of the Military/Industrial complex.
J.P Morgan and The Electrical Industrial Complex
The Westinghouse Corporation took full advantage of Tesla’s willingness to gift the world with his inventions. Instead of freely offering the designs to the public, Westinghouse used the designs to compete with the Edison Corporation.
While Westinghouse and Edison fought over the use of Tesla’s designs, J.P. Morgan sought his opportunity to gain control over the electrical industrial complex.
Years of fierce competition with Edison’s Corporation had left Westinghouse financially drained and by 1896 his company’s position was looking extremely precarious.
J.P. Morgan, the Stock Market’s ‘robber baron’, saw his chance. In an effort to bring the US power industry firmly under his control he began to manipulate the Stock Market, with the intention of ruining Westinghouse and buying Tesla’s valuable patents.
In desperation, Westinghouse pleaded with Tesla to revise his contract and release him from a bond to pay the inventor generous royalties. In a gesture that was typical of his true spirit, Tesla is said to have torn up the contract.
Tesla Invents Wireless Transmission
Around the turn of the century Tesla concluded that it would be possible to transmit electrical power without wires. To optimise results, he chose to experiment at high altitude, where the air was thinner and therefore more conductive.
Choosing Colorado Springs to build his research laboratory, he conducted extraodinary experiments and secret tests.
It was a solid theory. Unending amounts of power could be trasmitted around the globe…. without wires and with no restrictions on the energy use.
Tesla failed to acquire enough funds to pursue the invention and eventually abandoned his experiments in Colorado.
Watch Eric Dollard disclose his inventions based on the theories Tesla developed during his years in Colorado Springs.
De Amerikaanse astronaut Scott Kelly, die onlangs een missie van 340 dagen in het internationaal ruimtestation ISS heeft afgerond, gaat op 1 april met pensioen na een carrière van 20 jaar bij Nasa. Dat heeft het Amerikaanse ruimteagentschap gisteren aangekondigd.
De 52-jarige Kelly, die sinds 1996 bij Nasa werkt, is met vier missies van in totaal 520 dagen, de Amerikaan die het langste in de ruimte is verbleven.
Kelly zal na zijn pensioen wel nog blijven deelnemen aan de wetenschappelijke onderzoeken naar aanleiding van zijn verblijf in de ruimte met zijn Russische collega Michaïl Kornienko. Met het onderzoek wil Nasa de psychologische en lichamelijke gevolgen van lange verblijven in de ruimte onderzoeken, met het oog op een bemande missie naar Mars in de jaren 2030.
De Amerikaan en zijn identieke tweelingbroer Mark zullen regelmatig stalen met lichaamsvocht en andere monsters doorgeven aan Nasa. Door onderzoeken uit te voeren bij de twee broers, kan Nasa voor het eerst de effecten van een verblijf in de ruimte onderzoeken bij twee personen die genetisch gezien identiek zijn.
VIDEODe inwoners van Dublin werden woensdag op een bijzonder spektakel getrakteerd. Een man met een jetpack maakte een spectaculaire vlucht over stad, voor het oog van tientallen toeschouwers.
Nick Macomber, ook gekend als JetPackMan, zoefde woensdagnamiddag door de lucht van Dublin met een jetpack op zijn rug. Hij deed dat als promostunt voor de lancering van een nieuwe Samsung smartphone. De man vloog over de Liffeyrivier vooraleer hij landde op een platform op het water.
"Ik ben zoals een vogel" In het verleden zoefde Macomber in ware Supermanstijl ook al door de lucht in Peking, Texas en Londen. "Het voelt alsof je met een fiets door de lucht rijdt," zegt Macomber. "Het wordt een deel van me. Het is zoals wandelen, maar je denkt niet na over dat wandelen, je doet het gewoon. Je gaat waar je wilt. Zo is het voor mij om te vliegen. Ik ben zoals een vogel, ik kijk gewoon waar ik heen wil en ik ga."
Amper 28 seconden in de lucht JetPackMan kan een hoogte van ongeveer 50 meter bereiken, maar zijn vluchttijd is beperkt tot amper 28 seconden, omdat er een enorme hoeveelheid brandstof nodig is om hem de lucht in te krijgen. Zonder brandstof weegt de jetpack een kleine 30 kilogram, maar wanneer het toestel volledig gevuld is met waterstofperoxide wordt dat het dubbele.
Nog niet voor iedereen Tot nu toe worden jetpacks daarom voornamelijk gebruikt voor marketing stunts. Hoewel de eerste jetpacks al in de jaren 1960 werden gelanceerd, worden ze nog steeds niet beschouwd als een volwaardig transportmiddel. Naast het extreem hoge brandstofverbruik zijn er immers nog tal van andere technische en veiligheidsbezwaren. Met een jetpack naar het werk kunnen vliegen om de files te omzeilen, zal dus nog niet voor morgen zijn.

UFO'S LIJKEN IN CANADESE WOLKEN TE VERDWIJNEN ( VIDEO )
UFO'S LIJKEN IN CANADESE WOLKEN TE VERDWIJNEN ( VIDEO )
Al vaker bleek dat UFO's dikwijls wolken gebruiken om zich te verbergen voor te nieuwsgierige blikken van mensen.
Zo kan dat iemand uit Canada uit zijn slaapkamerraam kijkt en opeens een aantal UFO’s net boven de wolken ziet hangen.
Buitenaardse technieken laten ons zien dat wij nog een lange weg hebben te gaan. Zo kunnen UFOs van het ene moment op het andere ergens verschijnen, maar ook op dezelfde manier weer verdwijnen. Iets dergelijks gebeurde onlangs in Canada.
Hier volgt het verhaal van de getuige:
Op 21 februari 2015 rond zes uur in de avond zag ik buiten een drietal UFO’s hangen. De waarneming vond plaats in Hamilton in de Canadese staat Ontario.
Het was die dag bewolkt en de zon ging onder in het westen. Ik was in mijn slaapkamer en stond op het punt om mijn Playstation 4 aan te zetten. Dit apparaat bevindt zich langs de muur van mijn slaapkamer, vlak naast een groot raam.
Terwijl ik wachtte op het opstarten van mijn Playstation keek ik naar buiten en zag drie felle objecten naast elkaar in de lucht hangen terwijl ze een vreemde formatie vormden.
In eerste instantie dacht ik dat ik naar vliegtuigen of helikopters keek die hun landingslichten aan hadden gezet. Maar deze objecten bewogen niet, ze hingen stil.
Na misschien een seconde of tien begon één van de UFO’s een beetje willekeurig te knipperen. Een paar seconden later verdween de middelste, om even later weer op precies dezelfde plaats te verschijnen.
Ik riep mijn moeder die beneden in de keuken was en zij wist ook niet wat het zou kunnen zijn.
Na nog enige tijd begonnen twee UFO’s te knipperen, heel langzaam en stopten toen. In de video die ik heb gemaakt is de derde UFO heel moeilijk te zien omdat deze bijna transparant lijkt en daardoor slecht zichtbaar.
Dat is het moment waarop ik met mijn iPad begon op te nemen. Na 3 seconden zie je in de opname dat de UFO’s een voor een verdwijnen. Nadat ze in de wolken waren verdwenen, tenminste daar leek het op, heb ik de hele lucht afgezocht en ook in de slaapkamer gekeken voor vreemde of afwijkende dingen. Alles leek volkomen normaal te zijn.
Toen besloot ik de opname te bekijken die ik had gemaakt en merkte een vierde UFO op, boven aan de rechterkant boven de grote boom in het midden. Die vierde UFO moet ook verschenen en weer verdwenen zijn op hetzelfde moment dat die andere drie aan de linkerkant dat deden.
Ik heb geen idee hoe ver weg die UFO’s waren, maar ze leken mij enorm groot. Ik heb geen vreemde geluiden gehoord of vliegtuigmotoren of iets dergelijks. Wel hoorde ik normaal auto’s op de weg rijden en misschien heb ik daarom niets gehoord.
De kleur van de UFO’s was een soort geel/oranje, een beetje zoals de koplampen van een auto.

Venezuela: UFOs Over Venezuela? Sightings Reported
Alleged unidentified flying objects (UFOs) have been seen over the Venezuelan cities of Caracas and Barquisimeto in recent days, generating reactions in the communications media and the population at large. Are we being visited from otehr worlds.
The phenomenon was seen in Barquisimeto and recorded on a video. According to the El Impulso website, a phenomenon was seen this Wednesday over the city. "An orange wake could be seen descending in a southwesterly direction. Experts claim it could be the break-up of a meteorite or a satellite falling from orbit. "Around 06:20 in the afternoon on Wednesday, journalist from this newspaper witnessed an object with a slow trajectory, descending toward the southwestern part of the city," says a web article.
Likewise, journalists from this news organization contacted the pertinent authorities. "In a telephone conversation with Gilber Sanchez, director of Inter-Institituional Relations of the Asociación Larense de Astronomia (ALDA), explained that these could be meteor fragments that scatter when they enter the Earth's atmosphere. The expert's other theory indicates that it could be a satellite that went astray in its trajectory or was burning up upon reentry," they said.
Similar Lights Seen in Caracas
The Ovni Venezuela blog reported on alleged lights over the Waraira Repano National Park. "Ivan Figueroa reported that the time was approximately 07:45 PM, when he saw - from the balcony of his home in Candelaria Parish in downtown Caracas - some blue flashes over the mountain while listen to the "Ellos-Los Visitantes del Espacio"radio show (Them - Visitors from Space) hosted by Carmen Padrón every Sunday over YVKE Mundial.
"There were several very bright lights, blue in color, but they appeared and disappeared. They did not move," was the witness's description.

The photo was taken at Paraje Chaschuil, Tinogasta, in the Catamarcan "Puna" (montane grassland region) by a group of youngsters traveling across Paso de San Francisco.
The photo was taken by one of the youths, whose hobby it is to photograph the most desolate regions of the La Puna region, according to the El Abaucán Digital newspaper. The fellow took the photo, showing an unidentified flying object (UFO) around 17:30 hours on Sunday, 28 February at Paraje Chaschuil, Department of Tinogasta.
He did not become aware of the secret concealed in the photo until he reached his native Fiambalá. Upon reviewing the photos, he saw a UFO in the heavens. What do you think?

Argentina: "The South is Being Visited by UFOs" By Andrea Pérez Simondini, Visión OVNI & CEFORA
We have a story to tell you. The newspapers have startled us today with a multiple sighting in the Punta Loyola, Santa Cruz (Argentina) area. It seems that the south has been surprising us with a series of observations which, we could say, require profound investigation.
First, there was the 17 February sighting of a UFO intercepting the descent maneuvers of a private air ambulance flight in Rio Grande, reported by a renowned tour operator of the area, who was an "earwitness" to the communications between the pilot and the control tower, which resulted in a report field at the ANAC Flight Plan Office. This case is under investigation.
On March 6, Tiempo Sur, the Rio Gallegos newspaper, published "Fishermen Report Sightings in Punta Loyola", and we learned of the maneuvers of a least two objects in this coastal region of Argentinean Patagonia. The article can be seen athttp://www.tiemposur.com.ar/nota/1045 ... tamientos-en-punta-loyola. Researcher Daniela Ciancia published more about this case in her Patagonia OVNI website (www.patagoniaovni.blogspot.com), providing the detail that the cases were reported to the U.S.-based MUFON organization. The MUFON publication has noted the cases under the numerical heading CASE 74954 and CASE 74966.
Report 74954 mentions lights seen from the route where the coal deposits were located. Witnesses headed outside and saw the lights for 40 minutes. The objects moved very quickly and had an electric blue color, according to their description. They report having not felt the least bit of fear. The lights turned off and headed south at high speed, rising and descending.
Report 74966. Several fishermen were near the Punta Loyola pier, not far from the city of Rio Gallegos. They saw two lights moving quickly, making tight curves in the air. First they were over the cliffs, facing the shore, beyond Isla Deseada. Then they moved across from the cliffs to engage in up-and-down movements again. They rose and headed south, where a ship that ran aground is located. There were two other fishermen and another person on the road, recording it all with a cellphone. We spoke [with them] later on and were able to watch the video. The lights came through clearly.
The witness says he is a fisherman and has seen lights on other occasions, but never so close to the piers or the fishermen's huts. The eyewitness reports that a friend of his, who was out fishing with his own family, wound up hospitalized due to hypertension. The man, however, told the witness he hadn't seen a thing.
The witness wanted to file a report with the prefecture, but there was no one on duty at the time. During the week, he spoke to other fishermen and was told that "some men" had been asking about the lights and spoken to the man who had recorded them with the cellphone. This witness remarked that he hoped [the lights] don't scare off the fish, because they'll be left without a livelihood.
A New Story is Born
On 27 February, a surprising e-mail arrives at Vision Ovni. As in all cases, the outcome of the reading involves a series of procedures, among them the evaluation system used by CRIDOVNI, which determines a level of reliability, and yields an outcome that classifies the witness as an "8", the case is a "Level B" and the weighted unconventionality (NC) is 98%.
In the light of this, formal contact was made with the witness over e-mail to examine the facts. The e-mail received is in itself stunning, and a calm approach is the best course to follow.
We shall only publish the first of some 15 e-mails, keeping the witness's name confidential along with any identifying details.
E-MAIL RECEIVED:
1st E-mail. Ms. Andrea Simondini. My name is (xx) and I live in Rio. I am (xx years old) and am married. My husband and I have two sons, 19 and 24 respectively. I never believed in UFOs or weird things. Something happened to us on 26 February 2016 when we were in the wilderness known at Punta Loyola near Rio Gallegos, by the seaside. Taking advantage of the last few days before the beginning of school, we usually go fishing with my husband and children. While they fish, I wait in the car preparing "mate". The weather has been very unsettled these days, with passing showers, some wind and cold, but we tried our luck fishing after noon since there were moments of sunshine. We were several kilometers south of the ship that ran aground on Punta Loyola. There were several vehicles near the ship. It was about 2:30 pm. My husband and sons took a break from fishing and we sat in the car to drink "mate" and eat cakes. The car was point to the sea. At a given moment, one of my sons said that he could see a small light in the sky with a very intense blue color, as though it was electric, heading toward the coast at low altitude and over the coastline. At a distance of 500 meters, as we figured, the light began rising in a very steep angle and headed toward our right, southward, becoming lost near a cluster of clouds. We waited to see if it appeared on the opposite side, but were surprised to see it falling in a nosedive some 800 meters from our position, toward the south and on the coastline. It fell swiftly, but before hitting the ground, it made a dull whistling sound, followed by a metallic impact noise, but with a hollow quality. My husband got in the car, we left the fishing rods in the sea where the lines were, and told us to come and take a look. When we reached the site, my husband got out first and then called us. We left the car some 50 meters away. There's a rocky area on the beach where it fell. There was a funnel-like shape made of stones measuring some 3 meters in diameter by 1 meter wide. At its center was a sphere no greater than a soccer ball. Its surface seemed metallic and it emitted a bluish glow. We saw no markings or lights. The glow appeared to issue from the surface itself. The sphere was completely still and we could feel a slight buzzing and light snap every so often. My youngest wanted to grab it, but we didn't let him. We looked at it somewhat further away from the funnel of stones that had formed. My husband wanted to photograph it with the cellphone, but there was no battery charge. When I tried to turn on my cellphone, it turned on correctly but the battery was suddenly drained. My son had a tablet computer in the car which he had charged before heading out. He turned it on in the car, but when he tried to bring closer to the site, it too was drained. At that point we thought this could be something harmful. My husband said that it could be radioactive and we decided to leave. My son threw a pebble against the sphere which oddly enough, didn't hit it and was shunted aside. That scared us a lot. When we got in the car, my husband noticed that his mechanical wristwatch had stopped. We went to the Prefecture station that is near the deep water pier but there was no one there. When we got out of the car, someone approached us and asked if we had seen the blue lights. We said no. We then headed toward Rio Gallegos and phoned the Police 101 number. The party answering the call told us it might be best to call the Air Force, and we tried it several times until someone answered, telling us it was too late and there wouldn’t be anyone in until Monday. I then began sending out e-mails to people involved in the UFO subject in Patagonia but I only received an automatic reply from one of them, and no one else. My youngest son wanted us to alert the media, but we decided against it to avoid ridicule. I read that you have a group called CEFORA and that you have people all over the country. Would you have someone nearby interested in the subject? Thanks for your attention; I would appreciate hearing from you if you have the time."
The reply didn't take long at all, and pursuant to the situation described in the body of the e-mail, I asked them to return to the area to see if the object was still there.
In the meantime, I got in touch with the authorities to set up a communication channel in the area. However, I was unable to exert much pressure in this regard. While the story was shocking, the information was scarce and surely questionable.
The response to my mail was finally not with the sense of urgency that the requestor had demanded. This made me question the situation, but also made me feel concerned. If the story was true and these people were in contact with this "odd" object, I immediately thought about health issues and strange people who may have come into contact with them. In short, myriad possibilities emerge from these situations.
Unboxing the First e-Mail
We quickly set up a data sheet for the case.
Date: 26 February 2016 Time: 14:30 hours Witnesses: (XX) 58 / Sons (19) and (24), Husband. Location: Punta Loyola, Rio Gallegos, Santa Cruz, Argentina. Punta Loyola is a port of the Guer Aike Department.
At first, the witness makes clear that she never believed in UFOs or strange things. The situation came about during a family fishing outing at the coast. It is highly descriptive with regard to the actions prior to the sighting, the weather conditions and movement at the site. Faced with the apparition of the object, seen by the youngest son, the descriptions of distances and directions are very precise, along with detailed descriptions about the sighting. For example: "Some 500 meters, we figured, the object began rising in a steep angle and veered to our right, southward, and vanishing into a group of clouds." The description of the "crash site" is also very precise. The identification of sounds, sizes, physical reactions, etc. gives us a clear idea of what happened.
However, exact details began to dwindle when it comes to reporting the case. Mention is made of a visit to a vacant Prefecture station. Then they went home and phoned 101, are directed to the Air Force, where after several attempts they're told to call back on Monday (bear in mind that the day of the events was a Friday).
Faced with these circumstances, they started sending out e-mails, according to the following paragraph: "I then began sending out e-mails to people involved in the UFO subject in Patagonia but I only received an automatic reply from one of them, and no one else."
I checked with Daniela Ciancia, a researcher and member of CEFORA, manager and Director of the Patagonia Ovni blog (www.patagoniaovni.blogspot.com) asking if she was aware of the case, which was negative. Another phrase I did not overlook was the son's desire to contact the media, denied by his parents. That gives rise to her contact with me through the CEFORA website.
The Answers Arrive
A reply was received 48 hours, short and sweet. She thanked me for replying, remarking that some things had happened that she would tell me later on. The e-mail message made me understand that not only had some things occurred, but that someone was behind these people. The brevity and distance from the initial urgency gave me pause. I was also concerned about the health of these people and said as much in my next message. My own reply was just as curt, mentioning a visit to the area:
Hi (XX), your message left me feeling concerned. Are you all OK? Well, I'll wait for your reply. I'm looking forward to discussing a visit to the site with you. Regards, Andrea.
At this point, I had already contacted researchers like Carlos Iurchuk and Daniela Ciancia herself (being the one closest to the scene) in order to place a person in the area and try to understand the relevant points of the story. I also spoke with the Air Force about preparing a search for the object, among the primary tasks. Due to the lack of authentication, I did not try to force their involvement.
To date, we have been unable to confirm the location of the event, as described by the witness. Following messages gave me much more information and even more concern. To make a long story short, says the witness, one of her sons wound up in the hospital on Saturday night. The young man was diagnosed with encephalitis (an inflammation generally due to a viral infection).
At 3 am on Sunday, a group of people consisting of a team leader, a doctor, an orderly, a photographer/videographer, a thermographic gear operator and several field researchers turned up at the witnesses' home. It should be noted that there was a person claiming to be an expert in several fields, who contacted the witnesses by phone but was never present.
All of these people were dressed from head to toe in white coveralls. This operation lasted from 3 am to 5 am on Sunday, 28 February. The individuals had already removed the sphere from the impact site and told the witnesses that they had experience in dealing with such cases. The witnesses gave me much more information that will be kept in reserve out of a concern for their safety and the progress of the investigation.
If I am asked whether the case is true, I would like to say yes, but I cannot. I can tell you that my inner voice tells me it’s a case that must be followed closely. What leads me to say this? The evidence.
There are many reports for the same day from multiple sources. Could this be a confabulation by a single person, using various media? It could be. The MUFON reports lead us to take notice of the situation and examine the matter closely. The journalistic story in Diario Tiempo Sur tells us that it shares the same source as the one published in MUFON. We are surprised that no Argentinean organizations are mentioned.
The witness states that she is not lying, and became very upset when I stated my doubts and requested more detailed information.
We cannot ascertain where those people came from or the organization they represent. The fact is that they claimed not to represent the government, but an international organization that does not publish its cases.
If the case is true, and caused health issues for the family, with precedents on record that show even worse consequences for personal health, why didn't these investigators, who showed up with many resources and strict research protocols, also alert the general population and the authorities about the hazards faced in these situations? Like I said at the beginning of this article, I was going to tell you a story. What I didn't say is how it would end. Clearly, we do not know it will turn out.

Argentina: Airliner Has a Run-In with UFO Over Rio Grande

Argentina: Airliner Has a Run-In with UFO Over Rio Grande
A pilot from a well-known airline saw a strange "object" as he was about to land in Rio Grande, this object was in an area "forbidden" or restricted to air traffic at such a time, and the pilot asked the tower if they could pick up any "air traffic." The tower replied that no abnormalities were detected and then asked the pilot if the object in question was in the airliner's flight path. The pilot said no, that it was over to one side, and was then given permission to land by the tower, which requested a report, which was recorded.
This event became known through the Facebook page of renowned tour operator José Heredia, who reported the occurrence, given that his position allows him to have access to communications betwen airline pilots and the control tower.
The news was published by Infofuegina (web site) but lacking any certainty or particulars on the case, he decided to set the note aside until more information could be gleaned. But while the entry was still active, it caught the attention of the Reportes Ovni Argentina NGO, two of whose members contacted journalist Ramon Taborda Strusiat, who had only heard vague reports from listeners to a radio station that broadcasted the event. The source, however, was unknown until it was finally discovered, and it was the Facebook page itself.
Jose Heredia wondered: A UFO in the skies of Rio Grande? He said that while working at home, "getting ready to go to the banking district" and "listening to the Control Tower frequency of the Rio Grande Airport as always, following the path of air operations in the city, he suddenly heard a private aircraft pilot's report to the air traffic controller on duty regarding alleged 'traffic' in his air corridor (the airplane's path) which had not been reported."
Heredia added: "The reply was not long in coming. There should not be any traffic whatsoever in that corridor at the time. In other words: an unidentified flying object report in the vicinity of our city."
"In fact, ANAC personnel asked the pilot to leave a written record at the Flight Plan Office upon his arrival. Verbatim, from half an hour ago...approximately," Heredia wrote at 11:48 hours on 17 February 2016, which suggests that the event occurred at 11:20 that morning.
Meanwhile, according to the Jesus Leguizamo of the Reportes Ovni Argentina NGO, one of the group’s members managed to contact the pilot in Buenos Aires, but he refused to go public with the story.

Argentina: Commotion over UFO (or Drone) in the Mountains of Patagonia
The sighting took place between San Martín de los Andes and Villa Melquinia. The discovery took place when a family returned from its vacation and went through their photos carefully on a large screen: there were strange objects visible in the air.
This is how the startling images came to be known, documenting the presence of a UFO over Patagonian soil.
It should be noted that this flying saucer, after being enlarged and analyzed, appears to be a drone - a modern unmanned aerial vehicle which in some cases carries cine or photo cameras). However, the place from which the family saw it, with no one else around, and the object's altitude, is very striking.
According to experts, drones cannot be flown at long distances, which leads to the growing belief that the object photographed along with their summertime memories was a UFO.

Source: Planeta UFO Date: 02.21.2016 Cuba: A UFO Over Matanzas Bay By Orestes Girbau
It was the morning of the 5th of July of 1959. At 9:30 a troop of Boy Scouts who had set out from the Versailles district, walked along the nearby coastline. There were a total of more than 30 people clustered to one edge of the shore, while their guides were relatively nearby. The troop’s exact position was nearly facing L’Amours Beach. It was a clear, sunny, and virtually cloudless morning. Unexpectedly, shouts came from the troop leaders. “Look at that!” The formation broke up and all ran toward the beach. In awe, the witnessed an object which according to the first ones to see it, had emerged from the sea and hovered scant meters over its surface.
The object was oval in shaped, although some said it resembled a spinning top, while others stated it was a disk, given its resemblance to what was commonly known as “flying saucers”. Seconds later, the bright disk levelled off, parallel to the water. It immediately rose skyward vertically at prodigious speed, vanishing into infinity in less than fifteen seconds. According to eyewitness accounts, the machine appeared to be metallic, with a silvery color. Everyone could see that at the critical moment, a boat with two fishermen sailed rather close to the object. The fishermen looked upon the scene in astonishment. The object was wingless and measured between 6 and 8 in diameter. As was subsequently determined, the craft rose from a depth calculated at 15 meters without making any noise or leaving a wake. All this happened barely 200 meters from the shore.
The party furnishing the details on this fascinating account solemnly swore having witnessed the event. In fact, Leonel Rodríguez retold is unforgettable experience eloquently – another one to be added to the annals of the worldwide UFO phenomenon. What the Matanzas Press Had to Say
Headlines for the 6 July 1969 issue of the “Adelante” newspaper proclaimed: “Strange Object in Matanzas Bay”. Highlighting the sighting in one of its columns, the paper said: “Despite the investigations performed, its exact nature remains unknown. There is speculation, of course, as to whether it was a flying saucer or one another the objects known to fly in space.”
The “El Republicano” evening paper set the matter on record with the following headline: “Strange Silver Object Seen in Our Bay.” It was later known that the “El Imparcial” newspaper also picked up the controversial story.
Several witnesses were interviewed by journalists who did not hesitate in broadcasting their recordings on the now-gone Cadena de Radio de Matanzas (now Radio 26), but nothing further was ever said about it. After a number of weeks, local residents began to forget about the controversial “visitor”, which remained in the memory of only a few.
A Typical UFO Case
UFOs have been seen entering and leaving the sea. They have been seen engaged in maneuvers in lakes, rivers, gulfs, straits and sounds on various latitudes of the planet. Why not then Matanzas Bay? Faced with the facts, it is acceptable to believe that numerous sightings in Matanzas – judging by their characteristics – correspond to the UFO classification, which does not necessarily make them interplanetary craft. The event described here is a single experience, as the phenomenon has continued to manifest itself. The Words of a Writer
What is the likely purpose of these visits, if we are indeed dealing with extraterrestrial vehicles? Obviously, there exists no reason to dismiss other hypotheses, and I do not question a possible visit from some unknown world.
If space beings are really involved, regardless of their motives, they do not seem very anxious to show their faces for the time being. Perhaps the basic cause for delaying unequivocal contact with their terrestrial hosts lies with THEM. Who knows, however, if the cause for the delay lies in a human reason?
Intuitively, Cuban author Daina Chaviano, winner of the 1979 David Prize in the category of science-fiction, possibly came up with the answer in her short story “Los Mundos Que Amo” (The Worlds I Love) when she wrote: “Our civilization will strive in vain to make contact with the vehicles that constantly enter and exit our planet’s atmosphere. They will not respond. They will only do so on the day when we are finally able to bring an end to savagery on Earth, and when humankind’s intelligence is awakened, thus making our planet a worthy sibling.”
Spain: "I Was Threatened With a Court Martial if I Spoke About the UFO"

Spain: "I Was Threatened With a Court Martial if I Spoke About the UFO" By Raul Cosano and Jaume Aparicio
Gabriel Font, a native of Reus, discusses the questioning to which he was subjected after seeing a phenomenon - from the control tower - which the Army investigated and kept "classified" for 24 years.
Gabriel Font, 68, a native of Reus, spent decades in silence about the unidentified flying object (UFO) he saw on 13 May 1969 from his duty post, as he fulfilled his national service requirements at the Reus Air Base. "I didn't tell anyone. Only my wife and daughters knew about it. They believed me, but didn't give it much importance." The confidential nature of that event, transformed into a dossier and an investigation by the Army, kept him from disclosing any details.
Following the sighting, Font and others working in the control tower (or who were mobilized on account of the sighting) were summoned for eyewitness statements. "A few days later they called us to the hangar, where a captain had his offices. We showed up in our best outfits, because it was all very formal, and they asked us: 'What did you see'?" explains Font, who can now openly say what he replied at the time, in a moment full of tension and certain astonishment. "We saw a very bright light near Quatre Carreteres. Then it moved and wound up vanishing. A lieutenant colonel happened to be in the air at the time and he was ordered to fly there, but saw nothing. Some went up to the [control] tower. Some eight or nine people gathered there."
He says that after telling their stories, the captain adjured them. "He told us that what he had seen was secret, and if we said something, we would be court-martialed. It was very strong stuff. It shocked and frightened me...I was only 19 years old." No one spoke of it again. Gabriel completed his military service in the capital city of the Baix Camp without ever mentioning the case again, which was marked Classified and included in a report with the heading "Strange Phenomena Sightings", bearing the seals, signatures and flourishes of the senior military staff.
That dossier, along with many others (some of which also occurred in Reus or Tarragona), was declassified in 1993, as stated in el Diari de Tarragona last Sunday, breaking down the investigations carried out by the Defense Ministry in regard to certain UFO cases, due to a recent CIA declassification in the United States. "I had no evidence that there was a dossier, although the investigation must have been a fact since I testified," he says, while providing detail about his duties. "I aided my sergeant in the tower, going for the flight plans, helping where I could...," he recalls. "There wasn't much activity in the aerodrome at the time. They were basically military operations, and the first charter flights were starting to arrive. Sometimes pilots from abroad would bring the control tower staff a present, such as packs of cigarettes," he adds.
His story coincides with the testimony offered by sergeants or controllers at the time, captured by the documentation in the hands of the Spanish air force authorities. The dossier mentions a "bright, motionless dot, evenly illuminated but for the exception of elongated spots of higher intensity, yellow in color," according to the traffic controller's description of the object through binoculars. "Was it a weather balloon?" Font now wonders. As with many of those inquiries, there was no conclusive result. After several consultations, however, also documented in the papers that remained classified for 24 years, the likelihood of a weather balloon was dismissed. It was suggested that "the hypothesis of a reflection, visible from a single direction" was the answer to the phenomenon.
The conjecture is based on the fact that there were several airplanes in flight, among them five Portuguese ones and a two-seater. "That thing wasn't a reflection. I don't know what it was, but I know it was there and we all saw it," says Font.
Also Seen from Downtown Reus
Some eyewitness reports recall that the phenomenon which occurred on 13 May 1969, analyzed at the time by the armed forces, was also seen from downtown Reus, not only in the military airport. Several citizens remember that it caused excitement on main thoroughfares such as Calle Llovera, from which the object could be seen. Some people, driven by curiosity, took to the streets to see what was going on in the skies that morning.

Spain: Army Has Investigated Four "UFO Incidents" in Tarragona Province

Spain: Army Has Investigated Four "UFO Incidents" in the Province By Raul Cosano
The Reus Air Base and the Tarragona Coast were the location for sightings by pilots and controllers. No conclusions were reached from these investigations.
The CIA has just declassified hundreds of documents regarding the possible existence of alien life in various parts of the planet. These abstracts have been made public and detail investigations and images of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) mostly between 1940 and 1960. The material includes a sighting in Barcelona from 21 May 1952 at the El Prat Airport as well as the one in Sabadell and even in Badalona. The declassification has breathed some life into ufologists and lovers of flying saucer case histories, as the phenomenon has been prolific in these provinces. Sightings accounts, whose reliability varies between belief and skepticism, have dotted the area's popular mythology. However, some of these stories even managed to become a dossier investigated at the time by the Ministry of Defense. The Ejercito del Aire (Spanish Air Force) declassified UFO reports in which at least four sightings linked to the province of Tarragona appear, with the Reus Air Base as their main locale. The documents barely shed any light or final conclusions, but at least testify to the existence of hard-to-explain sightings in spite of research efforts conducted.
The most significant case occurred at the Reus Airport control tower at 11:40 hours on 13 May 1969. The report, marked 'Confidential' and subtitled "strange phenomena sighting" summarizes the situation this: "The controller on duty was attending to the take-off and ascent of a Boeing 727. Upon reaching an altitude of 2000 meters, he noticed - somewhat lower and to the right of the airliner's wake - a bright, motionless point of light, having an apparent size similar to that of a 5 peseta coin. Five more people (the backup controller, two radio mechanics and two soldiers) witnessed the phenomenon. The controller availed himself of binoculars at that point, being able to see "a circular (probably spherical) form, uniformly luminous but for some elongated horizontal spots of higher intensity and yellowish color." The High Command's Intelligence Section report adds: "When the airliner's exhaust became superimposed, the controller lost sight of the object, seeing it again after two minutes, further down and to the left. He lost sight of it definitely shortly after."
Investigations began at that point, without first dismissing the possibility that it could be a scientific balloon belonging to a French research agency with Spanish involvement, and bearing in mind the situation of the runway: aside from the Boeing, there were five Portuguese airliners and a two-seater. The report requested to the French "L'Adour" center proved that the balloon tests did not coincide with the dates given. More documents, such as a sketch on the sighting, an analysis of weather conditions or eyewitness accounts of those who saw the phenomenon, were combined, making it impossible to specify such data as the altitude at which the object was located. Conclusions were vague for this reason: "Despite the lack of conclusive information, (the presence of more aircraft) supports the reflection hypothesis, observable only in a given direction." The existence of fog and the time of day suggested that "it could have been a refraction phenomenon produced between the airliners coinciding in the air, and the sun's nearly vertical position."
Army documents place the Baix Camp capital's aerodrome as a crossroads, and therefore, a potential observation spot for unidentified flying objects. A similar event took place two years earlier, on 11 September 1967. British charter planes returning to England reported a sighting north of Reus at around 17:35 hours. A letter written in English and sent from London requested information on the object seen by the crew of an Air Ferry DC-6 as it flew at 16,000 feet. The file does not provide specifics. "The nature of such objects has not been determined," states the report, dismissing the likelihood of a weather balloon or artificial satellite. The document posits "the creation of an Information and Analysis Center within the defense command to liaise with international agencies for exchanges and studies on the subject of unidentified flying objects."
In the third file, Tarragona was the site of a 12 December 1979 sighting by the pilots of a private plane flying from Barcelona to Zaragoza on a "clear, moonless, and very dark night."
The report states that "a very bright white light, apparently motionless" was seen "over Tarragona or the coasts". The light's intensity dimmed until it became reduced to the size of "the head of a pin", later acquiring its original brightness, something which startled the crew. "The light moved in a disorderly sideways and vertical way, with fluctuations in its luminous intensity." The object vanished past the city of Lleida.
The Reus base is mentioned in a fourth event, although the sighting took place in the Balearic Islands. On 14 February 1979, Flight AF-530, departing from the Palma de Mallorca airport, reported "crossing paths with a meteorite" as it set course to the airfield in Baix Camp. Samples of the tape recording that recorded the conversation between the airplane and the Mallorca airport reflect the words in which the crew admits "having seen a meteorite cross our path. We have seen a very bright sphere." No conclusive report was issued.

Antonio Villas Boas: Total Abduction
Antonio Villas Boas: Total Abduction
ANTONIO VILLAS BOAS: TOTAL ABDUCTION By Pablo Villarrubia Mauso
[Pablo Villarubia is one of ufology's most indefatigable researchers, traveling to far-flung locations as he reinvestigates some of the classic mysteries of our time. His books include Brasil Insolito (1999) and Viaje Mágico por los Misterios de America (2003). Inexplicata readers will remember his re-examination of Brazil's Aracariguama case. It is with great pleasure that we present his latest investigative effort --Ed.]
Fifty years later we are reopening the investigation into the first UFO abduction case in modern history: the legendary Antonio Villas Boas incident that took place in Minas Gerais, Brazil. Hitherto unpublished photographs and interviews shed startling revelations: U.S. agents kidnapped Villas Boas and a “portal” to strange phenomena appears to exist at the site of the abduction.
A veritable nightmare commenced on October 5, 1957 for a Brazilian farmer named Antonio Villas Boas, only 23 years old at the time. It only came to an end with his death in 1991 at age 52. One of the most important and discussed cases in world ufology took place within the isolated rural area of Sao Francisco de Salles, located deep inside the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais. It is considered the first abduction or kidnapping of a human being by alleged alien entities.
On that distant date, Antonio and his brother Joao looked out of their bedroom window to see a circular light that cast its luminescence onto the ground, coming closer and then vanishing. On the 14th of that month, between 21:30 and 22:00 hours, while Antonio and another brother – Jose – tilled the soil with the family tractor, they were pursued by a round unidentified flying object that fired rays in every direction.
At 1:00 a.m. on October 16, Antonio Villas Boas worked alone on his tractor. A red light descended from the sky and turned into an oval-shaped, metallic object. The farmer was petrified. The object did not take long to land, setting its three legs squarely on the soil and lowering a seemingly metallic ladder.
The terrified young man tried to flee in vain – his tractor’s engine died and four robust beings of normal height (one of them shorter than Antonio) emerged from the object and seized him, hoisting him into the air by his arms and legs, and took him into their spacecraft, where his clothing was forcibly removed. They subsequently bathed his body with a sponge soaked in a colorless liquid. Conveyed from one chamber to another, the entities – human-looking, but with their heads covered by strange helmets – drew blood with suction cups attached to equidistant spots on his chin, causing some irritation.
Alone in the chamber, Antonio perceived how some tubes jutting from the wall emitted a grayish gas that made him feel nauseous and on the verge of vomiting. Later on, the frightened farmer would receive another unexpected visit: this time from a nude, white-skinned female with slanted blue eyes, high cheekbones, thin lips, straight blond hair, broad hips and heavy thighs.
And this was precisely the least likely part of the abduction experience: Antonio claimed to have entered a state of progressive, uncontrollable sexual excitement that he attributed to the liquid that had been rubbed onto his flesh. He made love twice to the unknown female.
Upon leaving, the young woman pointed at her abdomen and then toward the sky.
Antonio was subsequently ditched from the craft by the helmeted beings, but he first tried to secure some proof of his incredible experience: a box-shaped device with a glass lid, but the creatures kept him from doing so. The object took off vertically, issuing a whistling sound and increasing its brightness. Villas Boas spent approximately 4 hours and 15 aboard the craft.
In 1961, after the Brazilian farmer’s experience, an American couple – Betty and Barney Hill – underwent an abduction experience supposedly involving aliens. The Villas Boas case, however, kicked off a discussion that has not lost its currency: the likelihood of genetic experiments performed by extraterrestrials upon human beings.
The story of Antonio Villas Boas (who remained anonymous until 1967) was made known to the world by journalist Joao Martins in the international edition (Spanish) of the prestigious Brazilian publication “O Cruzeiro”, which appeared in Buenos Aires eight years after the events, on December 1, 1964. Also involved in the investigation of this case was Dr. Olavo Fontes, a major name in Brazilian ufology, who subjected Villas Boas to a battery of physical and psychological tests after the event (February 22, 1958). The witness showed no signs of mental instability and had a series of physical alterations caused during the alleged alien encounter.
The Early Revelations
What seemed absurd to many – that is to say, the abduction by aliens and sexual relations with aliens – would later be transformed into a pattern of conduct experienced by nationals of various countries.
In the year 2000, this author renewed the investigation into this case after having located one of Antonio Villas Boas’s sons. I must admit that I was rather incredulous at some of the facts of the case, and it was necessary to secure more information. His extraordinary statements – which I was not allowed to disclose – stirred my curiosity further until years later, Claudio Tshuhioshi Suenaga, the distinguished Japanese-Brazilian historian and ufologist, put me on trail once more. He had interviewed Odercia Villas Boas, Antonio’s sister, over the phone. His revelations had been startling. I immediately took off for Brazil and from Sao Paulo, Claudio and I engaged in a marathon relay of several buses until we reached Sao Francisco de Salles (pop. 3,000), the scene of the astonishing events.
It was there that we found sexagenarian farmer Joao Francisco de Queiroz, Villas Boas’s nephew, whom Claudio had also contacted over the phone. Joao informed us that on the night of the Abduction, he – Joao Francisco – was sleeping inside a tractor cab a few hundred meters away from the site of the incident. “I was only 16 years old and was deep asleep. I heard nothing. It was only the next day that I learned of the incident. He told us, his relatives, that he had been taken aboard a device that landed some 50 meters away from the Grande River and that he had had sexual relations with a short, ugly woman.”
“Ugly?” Claudio and I repeated, exchanging glances, “but the published reports said that she was a beautiful woman, despite her strange appearance...”
“No, Antonio always said that she was very ugly, and that he did not know how he felt excited to the point of wanting to make love to her. After the event, Antonio went off to Rio de Janeiro, where a reporter and a doctor investigated his case. They took him off to the United States, forcibly, as though he had been detained, but he wasn’t mistreated. He told me that he didn’t like that trip at all, because he had gone against his will.”
“Did he give you any details about that trip?” I inquired, knowing that that information would confirm the involvement of the United States in UFO research and the controversial possession of extraterrestrial craft.
“Very little. Only that he had seen a device similar to the one that appeared here, but it wasn’t the same. Antonio was a reserved person who rarely discussed the subject. What I do know is that one day he locked himself up in the house and didn’t come out until he had finished carving the flying saucer from his experience on a piece of wood. He covered it in tin foil, the kind that used to come in cigarette cartons. Then he sent it off to Sao Paulo or Rio de Janeiro. I saw it, it was very pretty.”
“What was Sao Francisco de Salles like back then?” I asked, hoping to put the events into a context.
“It was a small, practically isolated place. I know that in 1947 there were only ten houses. But the Villas-Boas family and I lived at Hacienda Aldeia o Mata, some five kilometers from here, on the banks of the Grande. If you’d like, we can go up there in my car.”
Claudio and I didn’t think twice: we boarded the vehicle, excited at the prospect of being on-site at one of world ufology’s mythical locations. We stopped under an enormous, hundred year old fig tree and Joao Queiroz pointed to the spot where the flying saucer emerged in 1957. “It was more or less over there, where the Grande River now covers part of the hacienda. A dam was built in 1977, the Agua Vermelha, which invaded the property. The house we lived in doesn’t exist anymore. They knocked it down, it was a little further up.”
The loneliness of that location, the green fields, the leaves of some scattered trees, gave us a sense of trepidation. There was something strange about that place. It was perhaps that sensation or intuition that made me ask Joao: “Aside from what Antonio saw, did strange things take place here?”
“During the night, right there at Hacienda Aldeia o Mata, we would all listen in terror to the sound of a hand beating the handle of a large corn-grinding mortar inside a shack. When we went to check, there was no one around and the handle remained tied, suspended, and the mortar’s opening was covered by a large clay urn.” And there was more. Joao Queiroz also said that they could hear the sound of a galloping horse that couldn’t be seen, while the farm hands told stories of a “black-hooded phantom horseman.”
Another important detail is that Hacienda Lade o Mata’s very name bespoke the existence of an indigenous settlement. Queiroz himself, in his childhood, had found many pieces of ceramic, bones (perhaps from animals) and the circular indentations of where aboriginal shacks had once stood. Researchers had never mentioned this information. We subsequently learned that the region upon which the Villas Boas hacienda had once stood was occupied, until the 19th century, by the Kayapó indians. They were decimated by the diseases, persecutions and slayings visited upon them by the white man.
We returned to Queiroz’s house. His wife, Maria Olimpia, told us that her husband’s parents had committed suicide in 1947, and that the local peasants attributed the tragedy to the fact that the area was bewitched. It was as if everything had occurred as an act of vengeance carried out by the souls of the departed indians. Olimpia also stated that she had seen the two scars or wounds that Antonio Villas Boas had on his chin, which he attributed to the placement of suction cups that drew his blood aboard the craft.
Abducted by Humans
The next day, after a night of restless sleep in Doña Manuela’s decaying boarding house – we had the fortune of finding Odercia Villas Boas, Antonio’s closest sister. 70 years old, with an impressive memory and recovering from cancer, Odercia welcomed us with great courtesy to her humble residence. Her most valuable asset is an old TV set that barely picks up the broadcasts. We were the first researchers to interview here on the Villas Boas case, by her own admission.
“Our father owned a lot of land. My brother tilled the soil with the tractor and became a cattleman, transporting cattle to distant cities,” she recalled longingly. “I was the first person who tended to him after he had been inside that device.”
Here we were faced with a privileged witness, since it hadn’t occurred to anyone to interview her and her contributions would be extremely important in adding greater depth to the Antonio Villas Boas case.
“He arrived at five o’clock in the morning. He was very pale and trembling. I saw that he had two bruise marks on his chin. I gave him some very strong coffee to drink, but then he vomited a yellowish substance. He didn’t want to eat the hen I’d cooked for him. Then he told me what had happened. That the tractor had stopped, that he’d been dragged into that thing and that he slept with a very ugly woman. He slept poorly at nights, had nightmares.”
“You looked after him, then.” I said.
“Yes, along with his brother Jose and Damiao, the tractor operator. He stayed in bed several days. Everything he ate made him feel sick. He had headaches and complained about being very sleepy. Two weeks later small, itchy marks emerged on his arms and legs. When they dried, they showed a purplish cast around them.”
“It seems that he later went to Rio de Janeiro,” I volunteered.
“Yes, a pharmacist advised him to write a letter to Joao Martins, who was a reporter for “O Cruzeiro”, since this man wrote about flying saucers at the time. My brother wanted to talk to him to find out what had happened to him. Then, four months later, they paid him to take the bus to Rio de Janeiro, where a doctor examined him. He returned and later on, five men dressed in green uniforms took him to the United States. Some spoke Portuguese; others English. I think they were from NASA. They kept visiting several times over eight or ten years. They would always give my brother books written in English as gifts.”
“Why did they take him to the United States?” I asked anxiously.
“He was subjected to questioning and the lie detector in California. He was taken to an open area where the remains of a flying saucer could be found. They then showed him another, in good condition, inside an enclosed area like a museum, asking him if it was identical to the one he had seen. He told me that it was very similar. He was always accompanied by a journalist who had a foreign name and acted as an interpreter, and was always surrounded by uniformed American personnel.”
Who could have been the journalist who spoke both Portuguese and English? I admit that we were startled, as this confirmed the cooperation between the Brazilian authorities of that time and the U.S. government with regard to the UFO research, even compelling Brazilian citizens to travel against their will, violating their rights.
“He was in the United States for three days,” Odercia told us. “They later gave him two properties near San Francisco and San Rafael. I managed to see the deeds. They sent him back to Rio, where he spent between fifteen and twenty days in a hospital, undergoing new examinations and tests. This affected him greatly, it seems. According to the medical report, Antonio was in excellent mental health and not crazy.”
“Did the Americans tell him if extraterrestrial life exists?”
“Yes, they confirmed this to him. I now recall, also, that Antonio was afraid that this abductors would come back to take him to another planet. It seems that the flying object returned, in fact, eight days after the kidnapping.”
Odercia Villas Boas also confirmed the existence of supernatural phenomena (poltergeists?) at Hacienda Aldeia o Mata, such as the movements of the mortar handle. She added that in the house where the women did the cooking, balls of mud filled with fur or long hair would fly around and land inside the ovens. No one knew where they came from or who threw them, as they emerged from nowhere.
“Was there talk about flying saucers in the area before Antonio’s experience?” I inquired of the lucid old lady.
“What I and many others saw, since I was a child, were lights that moved over a hill not too far from here. Many of them descended like stars in the evenings. I remember having seen them on several occasions since 1941. Once I saw a huge object, perhaps made of metal, silvery, that made a lot of noise. In 1964 or 1966 my daughters were playing in the schoolyard when they had to vacate it as quickly as possible: a flying saucer had landed there. The teachers saw it and were terrified. They all fled.”
“Did you notice any change in behavior in your brother after the abduction?”
“Yes, before the encounter with the saucer he was a happy person. Then he withdrew and seemed very sad. He didn’t want to talk about the event. But he was always a very kind person, donating food for the poor. He was always very religious. During Easter Week he would carry the saint on his back while barefoot. He never drank. He was studious and was already taking correspondence courses in 1957. Later on he went to live in various cities in Minas Gerais and Goiás. Thanks to his personal motivation and the encouragement of a nun, he graduated with a law degree in Brasilia.
“Did Antonio ever give any interviews? “ I asked.
“He didn’t like the subject to be made public. He was always very discreet and didn’t want to discuss his experiences. But one day received an offer from a famous television personality, Flavio Cavalcanti, and he accepted. But NASA kept him from appearing,” Odercia revealed.
Our reinvestigation of the Villas Boas case rekindles, with more proof, criticism about U.S. intervention in the UFO subject and the possibility that this country is in possession of remains or whole craft of possible extraterrestrial origin, under strict custody and secrecy.
A key figure in this plot was Dr. Olavo Fontes. Intelligent, methodical, fluent in English and with friends in the Brazilian military’s upper echelon, he was accused by some ufologists of collaborating with intelligence agencies within his own country and the United States. His constant travels to that country as a representative of the defunct APRO organization, spearheaded by Jim and Coral Lorenzen, caused even greater mistrust.
All appears to suggest that Fontes was closely tied to U.S. authorities and privy to a number of ufological secrets. He died young, in 1968, from a quick-spreading cancer. Some believe that Fontes was the victim of a conspiracy that also cut short the lives of other ufologists who “knew too much.”
Did U.S. authorities try to purchase Antonio’s silence by giving him properties in California? Why was he not allowed to speak publicly? It is very possible that the former farm boy and later trial judge took one of the greatest mysteries of all time to grave.

The Vimanas Of Ancient India & The Tales Of Ancient Flying Machines
The Vimanas Of Ancient India & The Tales Of Ancient Flying Machines
If you are interested in the modern day UFO/ET phenomenon, you can click here, this should take you to the exopolitics section of our website where you can find all of our articles on the topic. This article, however, will deal with a fraction of historical accounts of supposed ancient flying machines and extraterrestrials.
We have spiritual beliefs today, but not like the ancients. Thousands of years ago, people confronted forces well beyond their control and understanding: hence the gods. During ancient times, it was universally held that human civilization was a gift of the gods. Whether in Egypt, Mesopotamia, Israel, Greece, Scandinavia, Britain, India, China, Africa, the Americas or elsewhere, most people believed the gods brought them the tools of civilization – agriculture, writing, medicine – everything worth having. When the monotheistic religions became dominant, the gods became a God, but the beat continued.– Richard Dolan (1)
Antiquity is littered with stories of beings from other worlds, materials and flying objects that, according to modern day thinking, should not have existed. For anybody who has studied ancient mythology, along with the reality and recent public disclosures of the ‘Black Budget‘ world, they would know that a large amount of evidence exists today which corroborates with these ‘mythical stories’ (as we interpret them) into stories of possible ancient reality.
It’s also important to point out here that even today, objects performing extraordinary and (what should be) impossible maneuvers have been observed and tracked on radar by defence intelligence agencies worldwide. Perhaps these unidentified flying objects have been around longer than we think? You can read more about what happens when the military tracks a ‘UFO’ on radar, HERE.
Here is a great example that was released by the Canadian military many years ago.
Who are we to say that these flying objects in ancient history are mythical apparitions of the mind? Who’s to say that they were not also documented in the past like they are today? Thousands of years from now will our present civilization and its encounters with UFOs be considered mythological? Something to think about.
The mythology of the Eskimos says that the first tribes were brought to the North by “gods” with brazen wings. The oldest American Indian sagas mention a Thunderbird who introduced fire and fruit to them. The Mayan legend, the Popol Vuh, tells us that the “gods” were able to recognize everything; the universe, the four cardinal points of the compass, and even the round shape of the Earth. What are the Eskimos doing talking about metal birds? Why do the Indians mention a Thunderbird? How are the ancestors of the Mayas supposed to have known that the Earth is round?” – Erich Von Daniken, author, taken from his book Chariots of The Gods
The legends of the pre-Inca peoples say that the stars were inhabited by the “gods” who came down to them from the constellation of the Pleiades. Sumerian, Babylonian, Syrian and Egyptian cuneiform inscriptions constantly present the same picture, that “gods” came from the stars and went back to them. There is reference to extraterrestrial life in the Qur’an and Bible, beings that play in the realms of dark and light called Jins, Nephilim, Angles and more. There is reference to life on other planets and flying machines in the Bhagavad Gita, Mahabharata and other ancient texts from all over the world that spread across many different continents. Is this just a coincidence? Are these really just mere tales?
The Vimanas of the Ramayana, Mahabharata and the Samarangana Sutradhara
Much has been written about vimanas, especially on the web. One can easily become lost amid the sites, although it soon becomes evident that most of them simply copy each others’ statements. It is obvious that precious few sites that discuss vimanas have any original research – Richard Dolan
The word vimana is Sanskrit and has multiple meanings, for the palace of an emperor or god to a vehicle. Today, the word means aircraft.
The Ramayana is a Vedic epic that dates back to the fourth/fifth century, B.C. In one passage, a vimana is described as a “chariot that resembles the sun, that aerial and excellent chariot going everywhere at will, resembling a bright cloud in the sky, and the king got in and the excellent chariot rose up into the higher atmosphere.” (1)(2)(3)
Vimanas are also described in the Mahabharata, another ancient text. In this case, measurements are given for one of the vimanas. It’s described as having twelve cubits in circumference with four strong wheels that are approximately 20 to 25 feet in circumference; about seven feet in diameter.(1)(3)
They roar like off into the sky until they appear like comets.” The Mahabharata and various Sanskrit books describe at length these chariots, “powered by winged lighting…it was a ship that soared into the air, flying to both the solar and stellar regions.(2)
According to the texts, these vimanas were used to transport the gods through the heavens. These flying machines, according to Erich Von Daniken, navigated at great heights with the aid of quicksilver and a great propulsive wind. The Vimanas could cover vast distances and could travel forward, upward and downward. They were enviably maneuverable space vehicles.
Another interesting story that comes from the Mahabharata reveals the history of the “unmarried Kunti,” who not only received a visit from the sun god but also had a son by him, a son who is supposed to have been as radiant as the sun itself. This matches stories in numerous ancient texts in several cultures and religions, stories of ‘gods’ interbreeding with humans, like the story Moses, or like Gilgamesh, or Aryuna in the Mahabharata, or the Nephilim in the Bible (a few of many examples). It also eerily correlates to abductions of modern day, forced abduction as well as friendly extraterrestrial encounters that many people claim to have had.
Furthermore, many stories of serpent beings with superhuman powers exist within ancient literature. While we are focusing on texts from India right now, consider the Naga. According to Vedic tradition, the serpent Naga instructed humanity in knowledge of good and evil.
“It is interesting how the serpent is seen as a symbol of wisdom or knowledge across many cultural traditions. Cultures such as the Scandinavian, Slavic, Hebrew, Tibetan, Hopi, and West African all depict serpent gods possessing esoteric wisdom..” – Richard Dolan (1)(2)
The Samarangana Sutradhara is a classical Indian architecture text written in 1000-1055 AD. In it, whole chapters are devoted to describing airships whose tails spout fire and quicksilver.
The world ‘fire’ in ancient texts cannot mean burning fire, for altogether some forty different kinds of “fire,” mainly connected with esoteric and magnetic phenomena, are enumerated. – Erich Von Daniken (2)(4)(5)
It also describes types of machines as automotive, one stroke engine, remote-control and driver-run machines; keep in mind that this is 1000 years ago. It devotes one full chapter on the building of flying machines. The book does not explain the process of building airplanes completely and says that it has been done purposely, for the sake of secrecy – Prabhakar Apte, MA and PhD in Sanskrit. (4)(5)
I do not believe that we should dismiss the old Sanskrit texts as just myths, we have a tendency to do this with much of our ancient history.
We are not going to get any further with the old approach which scholars unfortunately still cling to: That doesn’t exist…those are mistakes in translation…those are fanciful exaggerations by the author or copyists – Erich Von Daniken
The Tibetan books Tantyua and Kantyua
The Tibetan books of Tantyua and Kantyua mention ancient flying machines, which they refer to as “pearls in the sky.” In both books, they emphasize that this knowledge is secret, and should be kept from the masses. The Chinese believed that these pearls in the sky were formed in the ocean. In India, dragons were often depicted fighting for possession of this pearl, chasing it across the skies.(6)

Again, is it impossible and incredible that the chroniclers of the Mahabharata, the Bible, the Epic of Gilgamesh, the texts of the Eskimos, the American Indians, the Scandinavians, the Tibetans, and many, many other sources should all tell the same stories of flying “gods,” and strange vehicles, by chance without any foundation?
The Tulli Papyrus
The Tulli Papyrus are writings from ancient Egypt, it’s the earliest known texts, from the annals of Thutmose III, of Egypts 18th Dynasty, whose reign dates back to 3,500 years ago. These documents are named after Alberto Tulli, a director of the Egyptian section of the Vatican museum. (1)(7)
In the year 22, of the third month of winter, sixth hour of the day, among the scribes of the House of Life it was found that a strange Fiery Disk was coming in the sky. It had no head. The breath of its mouth emitted a foul odor. Its body was one rod in length and one rod in width. It had no voice. It came toward His Majesty’s house. Their heart became confused through it, and they fell upon their bellies. They went to the king, to report it. His majesty meditated on all these events which were now going on. After several days had passed, they became more numerous in the sky than ever. They shined in the sky more than the brightness of the sun, and extended to the limits of the four supports of heaven. Powerful was the position of the Fiery Disks. The army of the king looked on, with His Majesty in their midst. It was after the evening meal when the Disks ascended even higher in the sky to the south. Fish and other volatiles rained down from the sky; a marvel never before known since the foundation of the country. And His Majesty caused incense to be brought to appease the heart of Amun-Re, the god of the Two Lands. And it was ordered that the event be recorded for His Majesty in the Annals of the house of Life to be remembered forever (1)(8)
Modern Historical Accounts
All centuries are filled with flying apparatus accounts. This gives further credence that all of today’s ‘modern UFOs’ are not all advanced, classified military technology (although I believe many of them are, I also believe many of them are extraterrestrial). In 1716, as reported in the “Boston News Letter,” there were strange appearances of Ships in the Air, which engaged each other for approximately thirty minutes. All of a sudden, a cloud of many colors covered them, which presented any further sight of them.(1)(9)
An account published in the journal Philosophical Transactions, from Westiminster, England from 1742 reads as follows:
I saw a light arise from behind the Trees and houses, which I took at first for a large sky-rocket.; but when it had risen to the height of about 20 degrees, it took a motion nearly parallel to the horizon, but waved in this manner. Its motion was so very slow, that I had it above half a minute in view, and therefore enough time to contemplate its appearance fully. There was nothing around in 1742 that could have explained this sighting.(1)(10)
One report from 1799, describes a “luminous spot seen moving across the path of Mercury.(1)(11) Another one from the journal Philosophical Transactions, in 1847 concerned a very odd moving light. According the writer, “it looked like a star passing over the Moon which, on the next moment’s consideration I knew to be impossible. It was a fixed, steady light upon the dark part of the Moon.(1)(12)
One very interesting account comes from a 1894 issue of the Astrophysical Journal about “a light reflecting body, or a bright spot near Mars seen on the 25th of November. It was seen by Professor Pickering and others at the Lowell Observatory, described as “a light reflecting body above an unilluminated part of Mars.” (1)(12)
In 1845, near Sicily and Malta in the Mediterranean Sea, three luminous bodies rising up from the sea about half a mile from the ship were reported by the captain. It was a Royal Navy ship.
On June 18th, at 9h 30m p.m., the brig Victoria, from Newcastle to Malta, in lat. 36 40′ 46, long. 13 44′ 36, was becalmed, with no appearance of bad weather, when her top-gallant and royal masts suddenly went over the side as if carried away by a squall. Two hours it blew very hard from the east, and whilst all hands were aloft reefing topsails, it suddenly fell calm again, and they felt an overpowering heat and stench of sulphur. At this moment three luminous bodies issued from the sea, about half a mile from the vessel, and remained visible for ten minutes. The sulphur connection is intriguing, since many UFO accounts have been connected to the smell of sulphur. (1)(13)
