Washington witness photographs square UFO

A Washington witness at Aberdeen reported watching and photographing a square or rectangle-shaped UFO that hovered in place and appeared to wobble as it moved closer, according to testimony in Case 78098 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness was standing at a window when something unusual was seen at 8:15 p.m. on July 11, 2016.

“A box kite was the initial reaction, but I quickly dismissed that as it was unmoving, yet started to move a moment later,” the witness stated.“Perfectly still, perfectly vertical, perfectly symmetrical at first. As I watched it,it seemingly wobbled as the opposing side rotated slightly towards me. As it did that and then back, you could see a projection or appendage, same glossy material, same stark sharp lines.”

The witness described the object.

“Appendage protruded at a 30-degree downward angle and appeared to be half the width of the depth of the overall craft. Appendage ended in a 30-degree downward sharp angle. As if it were a 2 x 4 piece of lumber angle cut. Cut portion had sharp lines just like the rest of the craft and matched the line that makes the bottom of the craft, again symmetrical in shape (followed the same line as the bottom and top of the object).”

The object moved.

“It rotated back to the initial position seen and that was when I went for my cell phone for a photo. Seconds later I was at my window camera ready. It had moved in a line away from the initial sighting, but not quickly in appearance. It had covered some territory.”

The photography attempt was not good.

“The photo taken is not good and shows what was clearly seen by me to be a square, to be not so square, and blurred. Samsung Galaxy 3. Took a second picture, but you cannot distinguish it in that picture as it was being covered by a passing cloud. Twenty to 30 minutes later you could still make out a black speck in the same general area in a break in the cloud formation.”

The witness was able to gain additional details.

“Also, when It was initially turning in front of me, there were some change to its glossy nature on the side that faced me. As it rotated it appeared to have an elliptical irregularity to the surface that drew some attention from me, but, it still somehow appeared flush, flat and black even though the elliptical shape covered fully one-quarter to one-third of that side. More of a line suggesting an oval rather than a protrusion on the surface itself.”

Assistant State Director AletaDeBee is investigating for Washington MUFON. Please remember that most UFO sightings can be explained as something natural or man-made. The above quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.

NASA promises ‘definitive evidence’ of alien life by 2025

We are on the cusp of discovering alien civilizations, NASA’s top scientists have said. They predict we’re one generation away from finding something in our Milky Way neighborhood, which is bustling with environments conducive to life.

Making their comments at a panel discussion Tuesday, the space scientists predict that the first discoveries will come within a decade.

Chief scientist Ellen Stofan believes we’ll have “definitive evidence within 20 to 30 years,” as“in most cases we have the technology, and we’re on a path to implementing it. And so I think we’re definitely on the road.”

I think we’re one generation away in our solar system, where it’s on an icy moon or on Mars, and one generation [away] on a planet around a nearby star,” former astronaut John Grunsfeld said at the session.

NASA has made huge strides in both spotting distant worlds and analyzing their chemical composition. Stofan said: “We know where to look.” Indeed, the Kepler mission has found no shortage of rocks that could support life, while icy moons in our own galaxy have long been suspected to hold incredible secrets beneath their own crust – among them Jupiter’s enigmatic moons – especially Europa, where a gargantuan body of water rages beneath the thin surface and water vapors are literally sprayed 200 km upward, giving clues to life-supporting minerals beneath. This while Ganymede is thought to have more water than all of Earth’s oceans combined.

The same can be said of Saturn’s satellite Enceladus.

Scientists found evidence to suggest that, like our more distant galactic neighbors, Mars also harbored entire oceans, the cracks and scars on its surface appearing to be made by raging water currents full of salt. All of this makes the Milky Way quite “a soggy place,” according to the director of NASA’s Astrophysics Division, Paul Hertz.

“We can see water in the interstellar clouds from which planetary systems and stellar systems form,” he says. “We can see water in the disks of debris that are going to become planetary systems around other stars, and we can even see comets being dissipated in other solar systems as [their] star evaporates them.”

The Mars rover Curiosity, stationed on the Red Planet, continues to dazzle scientists with intriguing new finds. Just two weeks ago, it discovered organic molecules containing carbon and “fixed”nitrogen – elements central to all known life.

The Kepler mission’s overwhelming success has also been a godsend – its lens measuring the tiniest changes in the light intensity of a star, as a planet passes by it. With its robotic eye, it showed us that life and rocky worlds should be far more common in our galaxy than the likes of gassy Saturn and Jupiter.

Numerous advances in both technology and our ability to implement it mean we are also accelerating the pace. One US company has just been given a grant for its plasma rocket to reach Mars in just 39 days, while NASA itself is already hard at work on developing a new Mars lander that resembles a saucer and promises to make it possible to “safely land heavier spacecraft” on alien planets.

Humanity is facing two separate challenges in space: one is finding signs of intelligent life, the other is identifying potentially habitable environments. While one may rush to tie the two together, the latter is a considerably easier proposition to make.

Stofan is all but certain the manned mission to Mars will emerge with spectacular discoveries: “I’m a field geologist; I go out and break open rocks and look for fossils,” she said. “Those are hard to find. So I have a bias that it’s eventually going to take humans on the surface of Mars — field geologists, astrobiologists, chemists — actually out there looking for that good evidence of life that we can bring back to Earth for all the scientists to argue about.”

Europa will see us much sooner than that. As soon as 2022, our $2.1 billion will get to work on probing the mysteries of its oceans. And then there are the water vapors, spotted in the region next to the southern pole.

These discoveries are accompanied by huge strides in lens technologies NASA says will be central to finding alien life within two deacdes. Already there are several contenders for the next King of telescopes, their tech specs threatening to leave the famed Hubble far behind; among them the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), which cost the space agency a fat $8.8 billion. The technology onboard is strong enough to peer at distant ‘super-Earths’ and analyze the possible chemical composition of those worlds, the gasses they spew out being strong indicators of life.

For direct signs, however, we still need to take good old photos of the rocks, according to Hertz. That is why NASA is hard at work on the next generation of telescopes – one that will feature a coronograph. The device is invaluable for blocking out the glare of the host stars of the exoplanets, giving us a clear view of the celestial bodies. It’s set to launch sometime in the mid-2020s.

Robotic telescope discovers 3 super-Earths ‘very close’ to us

Three new super-Earths “unlike anything in our solar system” have been observed close to us, just 54 light years away. The scientists were aided by an advanced automated robotic telescope – a technology expected to yield much more in the coming years.

Let’s not pack our bags yet though – the three celestial bodies actually perform much more daring orbits around their host star than even our Mercury, taking 5, 12 and 24 days respectively. And we all know what happened to Mercury because of its close proximity to the Sun.

“The three planets are unlike anything in our solar system, with masses 7-8 times the mass of Earth and orbits that take them very close to their host star,” Berkeley graduate Lauren Weiss said.

The above findings are presented in the Astrophysical Journal.

Although one planet was discovered back in 2009, only now have the scientists at universities in California, Hawaii, Arizona and Tennessee compiled a workable map of the neighborhood, where all three orbit their host star HD 7924. As with previously-discovered potentially habitable worlds, scientists measured the wobble in light caused by the bodies passing in front of their sun, which allowed them to estimate the size and trajectory of the bodies. To achieve this they used the Automated Planet Finder (APF) Telescope at Lick Observatory in California, the W.M. Keck Observatory on Maunakea in Hawaii, and the Automatic Photometric Telescope (APT) at the Fairborn Observatory in Arizona.

The news APF facility is lauded by scientists for speeding up the process of planet-finding substantially. This is due to the observatory’s dedicated facility, armed with robotic technologies. The tools can work all night without human oversight and don’t ever get tired.

“This level of automation is a game-changer in astronomy,”astronomer Andrew Howard, based in Hawaii, said. “It’s a bit like owning a driverless car that goes planet shopping.”

Following one of the discoveries in 2009, a further five years of exploring followed. Then the APF Telescope came into play and completed the picture of the particular galactic neighborhood in a matter of a year-and-a-half.

“We initially used APF like a regular telescope, staying up all night searching star to star. But the idea of letting a computer take the graveyard shift was more appealing after months of little sleep. So we wrote software to replace ourselves with a robot,” BJ Fulton, a graduate at the University of Hawaii, was cited as saying.

One may remember the ground-breaking announcement of the Kepler program, which first brought to fruition the concept of measuring the changes in a star’s glow, as possible planets passed in front. Well, the APF continues the job with flying colors. Because, unlike Kepler’s thousands of Earth-like planets found all across the Milky Way, the APF’s discoveries are dramatically close to our own neighborhood.

Scientists on the project are very optimistic about a more thorough analysis of that sector in the near future and anticipate new discoveries.

These robotic observations are just the start of a new search campaign, which is part of Fulton’s doctoral dissertation. The new wave of robotic planet research will become a systematic survey of nearby stars in its own right. Two new Hawaiian facilities dedicated to this are currently being built. The APF is here to stay.

How Would Alien Life Forms Look And Behave On A Habitable Planet Around A Red Dwarf Star?

The largest population of stars in the galaxy hide in the shadows, too dim to be seen with the naked eye from Earth. Their limited radiance helps to extend their lifetimes, which are far greater than that of the sun. Scientists think that 20 out of the 30 stars nearest to Earth are red dwarfs; however, none of them can be seen with the naked eye. The closest star to the sun, Proxima Centauri, is a red dwarf.

Take the example of the recently discovered planet called Kepler 186f. It orbits a red dwarf star that has only 4% of the sun’s luminosity. It appears to have liquid water and to be habitable and it seems to have gravity similar to Earth. Due to their low luminosity, how do you think lifeforms would look like on a planet like this? There are a lot of factors that need to be considered, and most exoplanets are too far for those factors to be observed directly with current instruments.

Let’s first ponder the possible environments of a planet circling a red dwarf.

What would the sky looks like?

For a blue sky: A planet needs to have a thick atmosphere with an abundance of oxygen, and preferably a clear ocean of water or methane. To have a thick atmosphere the planet will need to have a strong magnetosphere. To have a strong magnetosphere the planet will need to have a large, solid iron inner core rotating quickly within a fluid iron outer core. To have such a core, the planet must be larger than a certain size, and must have been born after a certain amount of time after the big bang, and in a region of space relatively populated by iron dust created largely through supernovae and nucleosynthesis.

For a red sky: consider Mars. Its atmosphere is 1% of Earth’s, and appears red because the ground is red. It’s literally rust. To have such a minimal atmosphere, Mars or any planet would likely have lost its magnetosphere. For that to be the case geological activity and core motion would need to have been dropped nearly to nothing (Mars in fact has some magnetism in the southern hemisphere). To be rust the planet must have a considerable amount of iron, so it needs to have accreted during a period when iron has been nucleosynthesized in abundance, and it needs to have formed in a region of space in which that is the case.

Let’s assume the planet has the same mass as Earth and is in the circumstellar habitable zone which, around Red Dwarfs, would be very close to the star. Tidal-locking would be inevitable, but models predict that atmospheric equilibration is potentially possible between the starward side and its opposite if CO2 and H20 are present. Still, the climate might be pretty turbulent, so expect the need for sturdy shelters capable of thermo-regulation.

The luminosity of a Red Dwarf is no more than 10% of our sun’s, so it will be like living in perpetual twilight. Plants will need to photosynthesize much more efficiently, perhaps via black analogues of chlorophyll.

Life forms could have a very similar metabolisms to earthly organisms. But who knows they might not even be a carbon based lifeforms. Metabolisms are a function of the chemical environment they evolve in. Life that evolve in an ammonia rich atmosphere would be very different than on that evolved in a sulfur rich atmosphere.

I would think that they would evolve big, big eyes or light sensors.  It is logical to assume that their visual system would extend into the infrared end of the electromagnetic spectrum, since a red dwarf’s visible light emission peaks in the red portion of the spectrum.

They would not see colors like we do. They could see inside thick dust clouds, obscured galacticcores, and other hidden regions of the cosmos. These unique abilities are thanks to infrared light, a wavelength invisible to the human eye.

Space would look like this to them:

This is how they would see us humans:

How might they observe us?

In infrared our petty reasons for racism and xenophobic behavior completely vanishes.

Looking at us humans in the infrared like these aliens could, it would be impossible for them to understand our human failing of unenlightened racism. They would not see the superficial characteristic of white, black, red or yellow skin. In infrared we would all appear to be the same.

We are all the SAME even when not viewed in infrared but many people still do not understand that.

Their physical size and bodily configuration depends on the gravity of the planet.  Massive planet, massive life forms. Smaller planet, thinner lighter life forms. If there are aquatic life forms, they are probably on the level of algae and flagellates. Colors of organisms will be in the white to pale region.

Red Dwarfs are thought to have frequent stellar flares. If you’re caught outside at the start of one, you better have a radiation-resistant coat that will envelop you rapidly.

Check out the free-access special issue on “M star planet habitability” in the journal Astrobiology, http://www.liebertonline.com/toc…, in particular the paper by Tarter et al. NASA and NSF broadly agree, and are funding searches for planets in the M-dwarf habitable zone – have a look at the presentation by Bean at this year’s Exploring Strange New Worlds exoplanet conference – http://nexsci.caltech.edu/confer…

Extraterrestrial Life Does Exist. Why Should They Be Hostile Towards Us?

When legendary broadcaster Orson Welles gave his suspenseful 1938 War of the Worlds radio broadcast, it caused a perhaps overblown but nonetheless real panic among Americans who mistook it for news reportage. And while “invaders from Mars” laying waste to the world now seems unlikely, scientists are worried that a similar broadcast in the future could be relating a real alien invasion — and not just one from across our porous southern border.

Astronomers have listened for signals from alien civilizations since 1960, when the Cornell University astronomer Frank Drake co-opted the national observatory at Green Bank, West Virginia, to launch Project Ozma. S.E.T.I Advocates are perhaps driven by frustration after 60 years of listening to the Cosmos and hearing nothing but cosmic crickets. But might our messages serve as a homing beacon for beings less like the cute E.T. and more akin to the rampaging aliens in Independence Day or Darth Vader and his Death Star? That’s the worry.

But is it a worry that is grounded in reality, no matter what Stephen Hawking might proclaim? It makes sense on some levels and then not on others. The only verifiable source of life which we have is our own bubble on Earth. So when reasoning by our own example…be afraid ….be very afraid.

Reason being is that life is very often hostile to other life. Look at the trials of life in nature and the trials of life in the newspapers. Mans inhumanity to man …. All Lives clearly do not matter.

Predators kill their prey. Many herbivores are highly aggressive and will attack and sometimes kill other animals (e.g. boars, hippopotamuses). Many animals fight, injure and potentially kill members of their own species (e.g. males fighting for mating rights). Chimpanzees go to war with other groups of chimpanzees. Anthills to go war with other anthills.

Look at humans. We are pretty damn hostile to other life – we’ve exterminated countless species, and other species we keep enslaved in conditions of horrendous suffering so that we can eat them (e.g. chickens, pigs).

This is not done out of deliberate malice. No one said: “Let’s go wipe out those damned dodos!” It is done out of convenience – an aggregate of small actions and in actions that each serves to make someone’s life nicer in the long or short run.

I saw a chart comparing species by the number of human deaths they’re responsible for in an average year. Sharks weighed in at the bottom of the list, with only 10 human casualties a year. Humans were about tied for first place with mosquitoes, each of them weighing in at close to a million. If you scoped a species like this flying around in the boundless expanse of the universe, wouldn’t your first impulse be to grab a can of Raid and let them have it?

But does it have to be that way?

What about the nature of any (hypothetical) extraterrestrial life? Does brawn win over brains? Does life take life all over the Universe?

Here are a few points to ponder:

1) One hypothesis points out that the incredible level of technology any space-faring species must have achieved indicates that it has successfully navigated its innate tendencies (if any) toward violence, evolving wisdom and social skills. A species like this would welcome with joy a new species — not kill it.

2) Another hypothesis points out that any extraterrestrial species is bound to be so different from us that we could never be able to achieve mutual understanding or even recognition. A species like this might be inimical to our interests — or even our survival — not because of hostility, but because of indifference or unawareness. They might exterminate us the way we blindly make other species extinct when they are under our radar. According to this theory, there is no special reason that they would consider humans (or any other earth species) as interesting — or even visible. In that case, they might bump us off accidentally while they used our atmosphere, for example, for some strange actions only they understand.

3) A third hypothesis suggests that the motives of an extraterrestrial species may be as alien to us as the motives of insects. They might ferociously pursue their horrifying goals of killing us for food or egg chambers or whatever. They may need all our organics, or all our females, or all our air or water. Or they may have inscrutable goals, but instantly fly into a screaming death attack — stopping at nothing, including machine gun fire — if, for example, we try to control the neat stacks of geometric prisms (which exude a deadly toxin) they are placing everywhere.

So extraterrestrial creatures may be benevolent, indifferent, or malevolent. On what basis can we make a prediction? On what evidence would we rely to assert a conclusion?

I can not provide any evidence but what I can provide is a point of view.

I am a firm believer that the more intelligent something is the more avenues, aspects, possibilities one can go through or mull over in any given situation. The smarter one is, the Universe becomes less and less black and white. Infinite shades of probability grey exist which are not available to creatures without advanced perceptions, advanced intelligence. The choice of violence and destruction is just one option in a ever increasing venue of options which is available for the advanced intellect. In that perspective I believe it will always be moreadvantageous to create then destroy. Advanced life will respect life in all its forms and handily work out any conflicts that may arise to create win-win scenarios. In the light of ever increasing accounts of UAP’s. This may be why we are still here and pondering such a question.

YOU must note that I am NOT referring to Humans, I am referring to INTELLIGENT life in the Universe.

We are not it. We have only been out of the proverbial caves for the most fleeting instant of cosmic deep time.

But who knows, I always reserve the right to be wrong…

If an alien species invades Earth and destroys or enslaves humanity, it will most likely not be out of malice but out of convenience. Grand Admiral Gorignax does not hate humans, but he reallywants that third conquest medal. His brother-in-law already has three conquest medals, and Mrs. Gorignax has been nagging him about it to no end. You don’t want little Gorignax Junior to go through the horrors of a divorce and custody battle, do you? I’m sorry, but in order to preserve this family, those humans will have to go.

Assuming E.T. Can Control Gravity What Other Capabilities Can We Expect Them To Have?

The actual way that the universe works is the same everywhere, however, every intelligent life form will have a different understanding of it. Not only have our laws of physics changed over time, even today, different people have different interpretations of how things work. The more advanced a civilization becomes the closer their model of reality will match the actual universe.

While eventually any two independently developed set of laws of physics should converge, Their current similarity will depend both on how different they were to start with and how much progress has been made.

We don’t understand how gravity works. We understand the effects. It is an attractive force in three dimensions. The ‘fabric’ analogy is a tool to help us visualize what is happening. Space-Time is not real. It is a tool to help us figure out reality. We say gravity bends space time because we can understand that. In reality, nothing is bent, there is no ‘fabric’, and so far as we have discovered, there is no actual entity that we call ‘time.’ Time is another tool we use to help us figure out our reality and what is happening in our reality. Neither the time particle/wave nor the gravity particle/wave has been confirmed. It has been recently glimpsed but that is notconfirmation. Only the effects have been seen or discovered. Like a shadow, when we see it, we know that there is something blocking the light, but in the cases of time and gravity, when we look, we can not find the actual entity that is causing the effect.

Gravity control and inertia suggest that they might posses some form of reactionless drive. A reactionless drive is a device to generate motion without a propellant, presumably incontradiction to the law of conservation of momentum. The name comes from Newton’s third law, which is usually expressed as, “for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.” A large number of infeasible devices, such as the “Dean drive”, are a staple of science fiction, particularly for space propulsion. To date, no reactionless drive has ever been validated under properly controlled conditions. Since we do not have theory of quantum gravity it might be possible to construct such drive by an advanced intergalactic intelligence.

Since such feats would require lot of understanding of basic physical laws we can assume that any race with such capability have quantum theory of gravity and can exploit it to practical gains.

Having control over gravity permits interesting industrial processes to become possible. Assuming that one have not limitation over it one can imagine that the aliens could create what is essentially a “matter furnace” using gravity to create something like accretion disk allowing conversion matter to energy – far safer than antimatter power.

To be a master of gravity means you are a master of time as well. Times fiery arrow relentless chugging forward can be stopped in it’s tracks. Time would be putty in the hands of these advanced intelligence’s. They could stop time, stretch it and make it their plaything. They may not age and they may be timeless.

To control gravity is to control the Universe at a level at this time we can only dream of. It brings sources of propulsion and energy that would appear as magic to us hairless apes.

Simple Solution To The Fermi Paradox

The Fermi paradox asks “if there are other advanced alien species, why haven’t we detected them?”. If you delve into this topic you will find a whole lot of utter nonsense written about Kardashev scales, Von Neumann probes and Dyson spheres as if those were even a thing.

Here’s the deal … Space is a really big place. Really really gi-friggin-normously big! One Light-year is $9.46\times {\mathrm{10^}}^{15}m$. Let’s call it 10,000,000,000,000 (10 trillion) km give or take.

The first part of the paradox is “why haven’t we heard from them?”

We can only observe objects at interstellar distances by measuring their light and radio emissions, i.e. electromagnetic radiation. EM radiation spreads out in spherically expanding waves, so the Inverse-square law predicts that EM intensity declines with the square of the distance from the source.

If we plug in some numbers we can see that in standard MKS units, if our hypothetical alienbuddies orbiting Proxima broadcast a signal of $1w/m^2$ toward us here on Earth it would decline to only $0.5\times {\mathrm{10^-}}^{34}w/m^2$ by the time it got here. We can multiply that by any output level we like to get the potential intensity of EM at that distance. For reference, the intensity of theCosmic microwave background radiation is about $3.7\times {\mathrm{10^}}^{-18}w/m^2$.

There are clever tricks that radio astronomers can use with arrays of receivers and by focusing on areas of the radio frequency spectrum that aren’t “naturally occurring”, but even so our alien civilization’s total output would be roughly 13-16 orders of magnitude below the cosmic microwave background. It’s likely none of their signal would be recoverable with our current technology. It is argued that ETs would be blasting a much more powerful signal our way. Perhaps they are, but even if they are shooting megawatts our way, it’s still going to be many orders below the cosmic microwave background when it gets here.

And why would they want to shout at us like that anyway? Here on Earth, there is no need to “shout”. Most of our terrestrial communicationsis broadcast within the atmosphere at signal strengths in the single digit integer watt range (there are spectacular exceptions like the Taldom transmitter in Russia). Very little of our radio noise leaks to space because it is intended for communication on Earth. It’s a safe bet the aliens would also use moderate to low power communications as well – if they even use EM at all. So even if they are “close” we probably wouldn’t notice.

The second part of the paradox is “why haven’t they visited us yet?”

Everywhere looks just like everywhere else in space. We have a hard time even detecting the existence of (Earth-sized) planets in the Goldilocks zone about nearby stars. Our smarter cousins may be better at it than us, but they suffer from the same tyranny of distance. Relativity dictates that nothing physical can travel at (or realistically, even close to) the speed of light. There may not be any aliens zipping along in starships.

At the kinds of speeds we can reach now (0.00023c) any star is more than ten thousand years away from us. If we could go a hundred times faster (say 0.01c), a trip to the Alpha Centauri group is 400-800 years (optimistically) because we have to accelerate and decelerate at the other end. Our ETs have the same physics we do and have to overcome the same limits. They might travel at higher speeds, but unless they are vastly more long lived than we are, they simply won’t survive the trip. But at 0.1c they might be in the ballpark.

Here is another take on this apparent paradox… 

Lets imagine that the chance of self-destruction for an advanced civilization is ~100% before they become capable of roaming the universe.

Here are some of the common musings which I think are wrong.

1) The Universe Is A Big Place

That doesn’t work. Whatever method we apply to compute how many life-friendly planets are out there, we always arrive at ridiculously large numbers. Considering time + statistics, that means many alien civilizations should exist right now that are highly evolved. If we take the human progress trajectory into the next 1000 years, it’s obvious that we will find ways to bridge very large distances quickly (much faster than light).

There would be tremendously powerful technology, and the first thing you do with this technology is to search for life. Even we with super-primitive tech know how to search for life (but we are lacking the hardware for expeditions).

2) Advanced Cultures Will Turn Inside, Not Outside

Unlikely. Whatever species wins the millions of years of selection will be expansive and aggressive by nature. This is not going away, ever, because that’s who we (and they) are – because if we wouldn’t, we wouldn’t exist.

The assumptions that advanced civilizations will remove the very core that defines who they are is flawed, people (and aliens) don’t do this. In fact, a conscious mind is very likely to be incapable of removing itself. Statistics and tech trajectories simply can’t explain why the universe isn’t humming with high tech aliens.

Unless we turn our attention to certain inevitable dynamics inside these civilizations. The chance an advanced civilization self-destructs before it reaches universe roaming capability approximates 100%.  I call it the self-destruction paradigm.

Here is my reasoning and some number games:

Let’s safely assume that every alien high tech civilization reaches a point where it can easily self-destruct. Humanity reached that point in the 20th century. And it’s getting exponentially worse with every day.

Let’s define self-destruction as a civilizational regression back to a point where high tech space travel becomes difficult – a major set back in terms of science, culture and technology. Like a nuclear war, artificial intelligence nightmare or disintegration of the planetary ecosystem.

Let’s also assume that with increasing technology, the number of people needed to initiate self-destruction becomes exponentially smaller: in 1950, you needed one of 2 major countries to initiate human self destruction. Today, you need not more than a network of 100, maybe 1000 bad guys who hack their way towards a few dozen nukes. In the close future, one hacker who creates a self-conscious, evil artificial intelligence. In his basement might be enough.

Now, let’s consider the time between the point at that a civilization reaches self-destructioncapability, and the point at that it could freely roam and screen the universe for alien life.

It’s very hard to exactly estimate this timeline, but it will be quite significant. Let’s say 10,000 years, assuming truly exponential technology growth.

Now, what are the odds that the civilization will self-destruct within this timeline?

Pretty quickly (given exponential scales), a very small number of people – maybe every single member – of the civilization will have the power to destroy the civilization. To make things easier to compute, let’s assume it’s in average 100 hundred people who have to collude to self-destruct. We can also safely assume perfect connectivity between all members, except for the very first decades.

Let’s also assume, based on humanity, an average population of 100 billion people (we are already at 7 billion, so 100 billion average over the next 10,000 years is quite low).

This means all it takes is 100 people out of 100 billion to collude to self-destruct the civilization – and it only has to happen once during these 10,000 years. Let’s assume it takes one month for the evil group to plot and execute the self-destruction (also very lenient given that most of the time they will have super-artificial intelligence at their disposal).

That’s right: you have to make sure continuously over 10,000 x 12 months = 120,000 months that no group of 100 out of 100 billion people decides to go wild, ever.

It’s also pretty safe to assume that there is no security system in the world to prevent them from doing it, since this level of control is hard to imagine. Maybe there are some safety measures in place to screen for deviants, but at this scale, it’s a problem.

So basically this civilization must reach a level of wisdom, foresight and absolutely flawless caring-for-each-other system that out of 100 billion, there will never be 100 people who are pissed or crazy enough to destroy the civilization.

It might be possible to build a wisdom infrastructure like this, but it’s a herculean task.

And I think that all advanced alien civilizations so far have failed to achieve it.

Humanity is utterly unprepared to live up to this task. Fortunately, it will take another 100 or so years before we reach levels of easy universally accessible self-destruction capability. Unfortunately, 100 years is not a lot of time to invent a new wisdom infrastructure that ensures not a single member of the human race has a reason to go crazy.

You can think about the self-destruction paradigm both theoretically / mathematically and from a concrete threat assessment perspective. Combine exponential biotech, physics engineering, AI and software with terrorism and plot it on a 30 year trajectory from today, and you already get a feeling of the problem. Now do it over the next 100 years, and the problem becomes an existential, high-probability threat.

As I eluded to before – self-destruction doesn’t always mean total annihilation.

But if you get set back 10% of the total every 100 years, you can’t go beyond 1000 years of advancement. And you will never roam the universe freely and scan for aliens everywhere, even though it’s so close on your tech trajectory.

I don’t think the “paradox” is a paradox at all. It is based on wildly optimistic assumptions about the ease of detection of alien signals. SETI has been processing radio-telescope data for decades without a single result. We have reasonable lower bounds for the distance to possible civilizations that are most likely 2-10 times as far as Proxima. There’s no reason at all to believe alien civilizations are just dying to get here and meet us.

NASA WARNS: Asteroid Could Hit Earth causing ‘Immense Suffering And Death’

No, it’s not YET ANOTHER conspiracy theory, Armageddon propaganda or end-of-the-world story, but it seems that NASA is worried about the 500-meter Asteroid which is why the Space Agency will send a probe to visit the potential Armageddon asteroid and study it in detail.

---

 

If the Asteroid impacts Earth, it would be similar to setting off 3 BILLION tons of explosive.

 

An asteroid named Bennu which can be seen from Earth as it crosses our orbit every six years could potentially cause ‘Immense Suffering And Death’, and NASA is planning to build a space probe in order to collect rock samples from the Asteroid in fears it may collide with our planet.

 

The asteroid which is around 500 meters in diameters and traveling around the sun at 63,000 miles-per-hor will pass between the Earth and the moon in the year 2135.

 

• “That 2135 fly-by is going to tweak Bennu’s orbit, potentially putting it on course for the Earth later that century,” Dante Lauretta, professor of planetary science at Arizona University, told The Sunday Times

 

“It may be destined to cause immense suffering and death,” he added.

 

While researchers will have a hard time prediction how close the approach of the asteroid between the Earth and the moon will be and how much its orbit will be affected by the fly-by near Earth, Lauretta estimates that it COULD SHIFT the asteroid onto a COLLISION course with Earth.

 

‘We estimate the chance of impact at about one in 2,700 between 2175 and 2196,’ said Dante Lauretta.

 

The OSRIS-Rex space probe is set to launch in September and land on the asteroid in 2018. According to researchers, it will spend one year on the surface of Bennu, and it will collect samples of rock before heading back to Earth in 2023.

 

 

If the Asteroid impacts Earth, it would be similar to setting off 3 BILLION tons of explosive.

 

If the mission goes through successfully, it will be the FIRST to visit an asteroid and return with samples to Earth.

 

According to Lauretta, samples from the asteroid could provide ‘vital data for future generations’.

 

In order to pick up a sample and head back to Earth, the spacecraft will ‘hover’ over a targeted area where it will lower itself at 10 centimeters per second and will remain in touch with the surface for only five seconds, while it vacuums the target area collecting samples from the asteroid.

 

Scientists will take advantage of the asteroid-visiting mission and study the building blocks of life by researching the minerals located beneath the surface of Bennu.

 

Hopefully, this isn’t anywhere similar to the story of the movie Armageddon, but if it is, will someone please gather the boys and girls from the film and give Bruce Willis a call?

UFO over St. Louis! Strange light over Famous Gateway Arch sparks debate, Aug 2016, Video, UFO Sighting News.

 

The UFO is actually a grey metallic orb. 

Date of sighting: August 2016
Location of sighting: St. Louis Arch, Missouri
News source: 

http://www.foxnews.com/science/2016/08/05/ufo-over-st-louis-strange-light-over-gateway-arch-sparks-debate.html


This UFO is a metallic grey orb. The UFO is very big, car size when compared to the arch under it. The UFO does not look like its flashing light, but I believe one surface of the UFO is dull grey metallic  in nature from what I see in the close ups I made. Its shape is perfectly round. Excellent catch by Chase Rhoads of Youtube.

News states:
A strange light that hovered over the St. Louis Gateway Arch this week is sparking plenty of debate on the internet.

Surveillance footage recorded at Malcolm W Martin Memorial Park on Tuesday and posted to Facebook shows the mysterious object hovering over the famous arch. “We guarantee you will be perplexed if you watch all 5 minutes of this surveillance footage!” explained the Park, in a post on its Facebook page. The video has been viewed 615,000 times.

Possible explanations for the light suggested by commenters on Facebook include a drone with a unidirectional light or a Chinese lantern.

Fox 2 News also received video footage of the odd light from Chase Rhoads, who said that he saw something strange over the arch early Tuesday morning. Scott Air Force Base said there was nothing out of the ordinary to report when contacted by Fox 2 News, and a spokesman for the National Park Service said there were no reports of anything strange on Tuesday.

This is not the first time that a mysterious object has been spotted near the St. Louis landmark. Video from the same camera at Malcolm W. Martin Memorial Park also captured an unexplained object that appeared in broad daylight on July 14 2016.

UFO OVNI over Coahuila Mexico July 15, 2016, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: July 15, 2016
Location of sighting: Choahuila, Mexico

This is a dark UFO thats moving across a overcast sky. The UFO is dark, barrel shape, and has a slight thin dome over its top. Mexico is notorious for its UFO sightings, maybe because they are so close to the ocean where underwater bases existed for thousands of years, or maybe because of all the bases below the volcanos for thousands of years. I believe the ancient Mayans and Aztecs are descendants of one of these alien species that lives in this region.
