IN BRIEF

We see the marvels of science and technology every day. But where do we stand? From tricorders to holograms to warp drive, here's a look the gadgets and gizmos in Star Trek and how close they are to reality.

The Dawn spacecraft used futuristic ion engines to fly between the asteroid Vesta and the dwarf planet Ceres. Ion drives are one of many "Star Trek" technologies NASA is pursuing.

LIVE LONG AND PROSPER

While clearly in the realm of fiction, the technologies and equipment presented in Star Trek inspired generations. Who didn’t want their own Holodeck or personal communicator?

But now, real life advancements in computing and robotics have become so robust that we are anticipating the “Singularity,” and NASA has actively been pursuing projects like warp ships. So, just how excited should you be about all of this work? Is the world of Star Trek really that far off?

In some respects, we have actually surpassed the gizmos producer Gene Roddenberry and the writers of the show originally thought up. Our cellphones, laptops, and tablets can stream video, images, and text. Moreover, our network of satellites means that, thanks to things like Skype, you can have an instantaneous video call with anyone anywhere on the planet.

In contrast, the crew’s communicators could only do verbal reports. True, their larger computers were capable of a lot more, but as far as handheld devices go, our cell phones are a lot more than what the early creators of Star trek seemed to imagine.

Similarly, the handheld, portable tricorder from Star Trek was essential to the crew. It was able to scan and record biological data from almost anything, and (like the communicators) it could do it anytime and anywhere.

Ultimately, recent technology seems to have been pulling the device out of science fiction and turning it into reality.  Take, for example, the tech developed by British company Oxford Nanopore Technologies, which aims to bring portable DNA sequencing into everyday reality. They have made significant advancements in processing the information contained within an object’s genetic code, but while the early work is notable, we’re not there yet. Known as the MinION, production was a disappointment to many scientists due to manufacturing delays, inaccurate results, and lack of truly significant features (but we’re taking baby steps).

And what about warp drive? Well, to begin, the core idea behind this travel is not the propulsion we are familiar with. You don’t accelerate at all. Instead, this method utilizes the flexibility of the fabric of space itself.

The most practical design thus far has been a ring built around a smaller craft that could expand space behind it and shrink it in the front. This essentially creates a warp bubble that would shift space-time around the craft. From the inside, it would appear as though you were racing through space, when in fact there would be no acceleration whatsoever!

But there are problems. Sean Carroll, a theoretical cosmologist famous for his popular science books, went on record saying;

The Alcubierre warp drive is a very interesting arena for thought experiments to try to better understand general relativity and quantum field theory, but it should give you zero hope for actually building a spaceship some day. Some of the many problems are discussed on Wikipedia.

In short, it requires negative energy densities, which can’t be strictly disproven but are probably unrealistic; the total amount of energy is likely to be equivalent to the mass-energy of an astrophysical body; and the gravitational fields produced would likely rip any ship to shreds. My personal estimate of the likelihood we will ever be able to build a “warp drive” is much less than 1%. And the chances it will happen in the next hundred years I would put at less than 0.01%.

And, of course, there is more. Take technology like the Holodeck. Arthur C. Clarke’s Third Law says, “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” But, as NASA notes, “we can’t assume every magical feat could be accomplished, given sufficiently advanced technology. Holograms are images that appear to have three-dimensional structure. We can’t yet imagine a way to assemble matter in the same way as the light in a hologram.”

However, we do have some pretty impressive virtual reality technology that can simulate actual places and activities. Likewise, augmented reality is progressing day-by-day. So, in a sense, we are getting there.

FEATS OF FANCY AND IMAGINATION

While many Star Trek technologies are in the works in one way or another, we still haven’t got around to making the big stuff real. Warp and ion drives, Mr. Data, fusion engines…and a whole lot of other major projects are still major engineering challenges. In fact, even sending signals over astronomically short distances (like to Mars) still results in lag—while they may be based on shreds of actual math, subspace communications of the Star Trek Variety are still rather impossible.

But as was noted, a number of these technologies are already in the works, and we have surpassed Star Trek in several different areas. So although we might not have Klingons and interstellar travel, we have instantaneous global communication; we have computers that we speak to, and they speak back; we have people living in space…so in some ways, we already are living in a Star Trek-esque world.

And it’s that combination of real science and creative imagination that keeps us all coming back to Roddenberry’s world.

Ten Incredible Unexplained Mysteries - Video, Photos

---

1. Damacus Sword

Mesmerizing Damascus Sword

The remarkable characteristics of Damascus steel became known to Europe when the Crusaders reached the Middle East, beginning in the 11th century.

They discovered that swords of this metal could split a feather in midair, yet retain their edge through many a battle with the Saracens. The swords were easily recognized by a characteristic watery or ”damask” pattern on their blades.

Such blades were reputed to be not only tough and resistant to shattering, but capable of being honed to a sharp and resilient edge.

The original method of producing Damascus steel is not known. Due to differences in raw materials and manufacturing techniques, modern attempts to duplicate the metal have failed.

2. Pillar of Delhi

 

Mysterious Noncorroding Pillar of Delhi

Standing at the center of the Quwwatul Mosque the Iron Pillar is one of Delhi's most curious structures. Dating back to 4th century A.D., the pillar bears an inscription which states that it was erected as a flagstaff in honour of the Hindu god, Vishnu, and in the memory of the Gupta King Chandragupta II (375-413). 

How the pillar moved to its present location remains a mystery. The pillar also highlights ancient India's achievements in metallurgy. The pillar is made of 98 per cent wrought iron and has stood 1,600 years without rusting or decomposing.

3. Costa Rican Spheres

The incomprehensible Spheres of Costa Rico

Hundreds of stone spheres have been documented in Costa Rica, ranging in size from a few centimeters to over two meters in diameter. Almost all of them are made of granodiorite, a hard, igneous stone. These objects are not natural in origin, unlike the stone balls in Jalisco, Mexico that were described in a 1965 National Geographic article. Rather, they are monolithic sculptures made by human hands. 

The spheres have been endangered since the moment of their discovery. Many have been destroyed, dynamited by treasure hunters or cracked and broken by agricultural activities. At the time of a major study undertaken in the 1950s, fifty balls were recorded as being in situ. Today, only a handful are known to be in their original locations.

Theories abound about who made them and how but the bottom line is no one really knows.

4. Baigong Pipes

Captivating and very mysterious Baigong Pipes of China

Local legend speculates that Mt. Baigong in the Qinghai Province of China is an ancient extraterrestrial laboratory. Aside from the mysterious pyramid that crowns the mountain, three triangular entrances at the mountain’s base lead the way to hundreds of decrepit metal pipe-like structures of unknown origin.

The rusty tubes, ranging from needle-size to 16 inches in diameter, reach from deep inside the mountain to a saltwater lake 260 feet away. Many of the hollow pipes are uniform in size and seem to be placed purposefully. The ancient objects are embedded deep enough into the mountain wall and floor to preclude modern human handling. The inhospitable environment surrounding the mountain sees only the occasional nomad. Unless these wanderers developed secret advanced metallurgy skills, the pipes were not formed by 'human' hands.

What is astonishing is inside for there is a half-pipe about 40 centimeters in diameter tilting from the top to the inner end of the cave. Another pipe of the same diameter goes into the earth with only its top visible above the ground. At the opening of the cave there are a dozen pipes at the diameter between 10 and 40 centimeters that run straight into the mountain in what appears to be a sophisticated mounting technique. 

About 80 meters away from the caves is the shimmering Toson Lake, on whose beach 40 meters away, many iron pipes can be found scattered on sands and rocks. They run in the east-west direction with a diameter between 2 and 4.5 centimeters.

Oddly there are pipes located in the lake, some reaching above the surface and some remain buried below, scattered across the beach are similar pipes with the same shape and thickness.

5. Antikythera Mechanism

An exacting modern replica of the Antikythera Mechanism

The Antikythera Mechanism is one of the world's oldest known geared devices. It has puzzled and intrigued historians of science and technology since its discovery. It was recovered in 1900–01 from the Antikythera wreck, a shipwreck off the Greek island of Antikythera. The device seemed to have a range of interlocking gears made of bronze and a hand crank to give a turning movement to the geared mechanism, plus a display that showed information about the moon, sun and planets against a background of stars.
Taking all the available facts into account, the prevailing theory at the moment is that the device was a clockwork-like mechanism designed to display the progress and positions of the sun, moon, and probably all five of the other planets known at the time (Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn) over a period of 19 years. In other words: it’s an analog astronomical computer. It had apparently been built several years before the shipwreck - most likely in 82 B.C. 

The levels of precision and astronomical understanding necessary to the functionality of the antikythera Mechanism perhaps attest to the strong possibility that this example of ancient genius in mechanics and science was not unique and that its designers and fabricators were capable of producing other examples of such, or similar, instruments.

6. Voynich Manuscript

A language that is not understood and drawing of plants that don't exist at least on earth

The Voynich manuscript has been studied by many professional and amateur cryptographers, including American and British code-breakers from both World War I and World War II. No one has yet succeeded in deciphering the text, and it has become a famous case in the history of cryptography. 

 

The mystery of the meaning and origin of the manuscript has excited the popular imagination, making the manuscript the subject of novels and speculation. None of the many hypotheses proposed over the last hundred years has yet been independently verified.

 

While each page displays plants, none of them has been identified but a more interesting aspect of this mystery is that the manuscript contains astronomical content. 

One series of 12 diagrams depicts conventional symbols for the zodiacal constellations. Each of these has 30 female figures arranged in two or more concentric bands. Most of the females are at least partly naked, and each holds what appears to be a labeled star or is shown with the star attached by what could be a tether or cord of some kind to either arm. The last two pages of this section were lost, while Aries and Taurus are split into four paired diagrams with 15 women and 15 stars each. Some of these diagrams are on fold-out pages.

The Voynich Manuscript is a true historical mystery but of what time and place is unknown.

7. Egyptian Mummies

Ancient Mummies in for modern day drug testing - they failed

Scientists found hashish, cocaine and tobacco in 9 Egyptian mummies, however, tobacco was  unknown in the Old World until the Spanish brought it back from the Americas in the Sixteenth Century.

 

"Apart from an ongoing investigation of hallucinogenic drugs in ancient societies, this preliminary study reports the identification of cocaine, hashish, and nicotine in Egyptian mummies. We took samples of soft tissue, bone, and hair from nine mummies. Drugs were detected by radio-immunoassay and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry."


Ancient Egypt has confounded the experts for centuries and this discovery within the mummies only adds one more element of intrigue.

8. Bagdad Lights

The carvings show ancients using electricity that defy logic but make perfect sense.

One of the great mysteries of ancient Egyptian architecture is how were so many things built without electricity. Pyramids, tombs and temples had a vast network of hallways and tunnels, many were lined with painting and carvings. Was it all done in the dark? That is not very likely. 

 

Some have speculated that it was done with a series of mirrors or copper that reflected light into the vast array of pitch black corridors. To the logical mind that is pretty far fetched. 

Many still believe today that the only form of light the Egyptians used came from oil lamps, candles and torches. Well if that's the case where is the soot. Conspicuous by it absence is the soot or black grime or residue that these primitive forms of light emitted.  So, how did they do it? Easy, electricity

A Norwegian electrical engineer noticed that the object shown on the relief in the photo just above could work as a lamp. An Austrian scientist was able to construct a working model, and two well known authors in the AAS, Peter Krassa and Rainer Habeck, could even work out a real theory based on it. What we see is without question a form of bulb, with two arms reaching into it near its thick end, and a sort of cable at the other end, from where a snake is leaping out to touch the arms on the other side. The whole ensemble really looks like a lamp.

9. San Pedro Mountain Mummy

The San Pedro Mountain Mummy - Known as the Tiny People Eaters

Oral traditions of many Native American tribes, including the Arapaho, Sioux, Cheyenne, and Crow, tell of "little people” who stand from just 20 inches to three feet tall. In some tribes they are known as "tiny people eaters,” in others they were known to have been spirits and healers, and some believed them to be magical, similar to leprechauns or fairies. In any event, the legends were well known among Indians across the nation, long before the Europeans set foot upon the Americas.

Though many believe these "little people” to be only the stuff of legends, several discoveries point to the contrary, the most significant of which, was a 14” inch fully formed mummy found in 1932. Called the Pedro Mountains Mummy, he was discovered when two men were digging for gold in the San Pedro Mountains about 60 miles southwest of Casper,Wyoming .

 

Many screamed hoax and scientist assembled to perform test. Anthropologists would soon be surprised to see that x-rays displayed a perfectly formed, manlike skeleton. The examines also showed that the mummy had been killed violently, as the spine was damaged, a collarbone broken, and the skull had been smashed in by a heavy blow. The soft substance at the top of the head exposed brain tissue and congealed blood. After the tests were complete, the scientists estimated that the mummy was a full grown adult who was approximately 65 years old at the time of his death. One odd finding was that its teeth were overly pointed, having a full set of canines.

10. Man Made City of Nan Madol

The man made city of Nan Madol - were the building stone levitated into place as legend says?

If Nan Madol was anywhere else on the planet it would attract thousands of visitors a day. There truly is no other place on Earth like it. It is located in Micronesia in the western Pacific Ocean. The city, constructed in a lagoon, consists of a series of small man-made islands linked by a network of canals.

 

According to Pohnpeian legend, Nan Madol was constructed by twin sorcerers Olisihpa and Olosohpa from the mythical Western Katau, or Kanamwayso. The brothers arrived in a large canoe seeking a place to build an altar so that they could worship Nahnisohn Sahpw, the god of agriculture. After several false starts, the two brothers successfully built an altar off Temwen Island, where they performed their rituals. In legend, these brothers levitated the huge stones with the aid of a flying dragon.

The technologies of ancient civilizations continue to baffle scientific explanation. Nan Madol is a ruined city that lies off the eastern shore of the island of Pohnpei and was the capital of the Saudeleur dynasty until about AD 1500. The Megalithic city consists of a series of small artificial islands linked by a network of canals and is often called the "Venice of the Pacific". The name Nan Madol means "spaces between" and is a reference to the canals that crisscross the ruins.The original name was Soun Nan-leng (Reef of Heaven). 

Nan Madol required a tremendous effort and expertise so that the great number of stones, weighing anywhere from five to fifty tons, could be moved and raised to where they were needed. To erect walls 10 feet wide and up to 37 feet tall, 250 million pieces of rock(700 000 metric tons) had to be logged in from the quarry on the opposite side of the island. The locals say that the ancient builders used magic. A powerful magician living in the well inhabited region on the northwest of the island was solicited, With "sounds of varying pitch" he made basalt logs fly through the air like birds and settle down in their appointed places.

Reagan had two UFO sightings, the US president spoke the the United Nations about an alien invasion, UFO Sighting News.

President Ronald Reagan said he had two UFO sightings, both in a plane, where he told the pilot to follow it, which they did for a few minutes. He constantly thought about this and had inside info from the CIA about the existence of aliens. He knew things...and his subconscious would never stop pushing him to tell the public the truth...but remember what the CIA did when Kennedy pushed the CIA to reveal to NASA the truth...he was killed one week later from the signing of a memo about it. Reagan tried to warn us of a alien invasion. He succeeded. 
Scott C. Waring

Video states:  

There were four persons aboard the plane: pilot Bill Paynter, two security guards, and the governor of California, Ronald Reagan. As the airplane approached Bakersfield, California, the passengers called Paynter’s attention to a strange object to their rear. “It appeared to be several hundred yards away,” Paynter recalled. “It was a fairly steady light until it began to accelerate. Then it appeared to elongate. Then the light took off. It went up at a 45-degree angle-at a high rate of speed. Everyone on the plane was surprised. . . . The UFO went from a normal cruise speed to a fantastic speed instantly. If you give an airplane power, it will accelerate-but not like a hot rod, and that’s what this was like.”

A week later Reagan recounted the sighting to Norman C. Miller, then Washington bureau chief for the Wall Street Journal. Reagan told Miller, “We followed it for several minutes. It was a bright white light. We followed it to Bakersfield, and all of a sudden to our utter amazement it went straight up into the heavens.” When Miller expressed some doubt, a “look of horror came over [Reagan]. It suddenly dawned on him . . . that he was talking to a reporter.” Immediately afterward, according to Miller, Reagan “clammed up.”

Reagan has not discussed the incident publicly since.

How US President Jimmy Carter Filed a UFO-Sighting Report in 1973, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: Oct 1969
Location of sighting: Leary, Georgia, USA
News source: 

http://www.insideedition.com/headlines/18636-the-presidential-x-files-how-jimmy-carter-filed-a-ufo-sighting-report-in-1973

If you can't believe a US president when he say he saw a UFO, than you can't believe anyone. He risked a lot by telling everyone about this sighting and having it go on record, and yet, he didn't care about the risk. Thats cool.
Scott C. Waring

News states: 
In October 1969, a young Georgia politician was leaving a fundraiser when he spotted a large object glowing in the sky.

Four years later, in September 1973, he formally filed a UFO sighting report with the National Investigations Committee on Aerial Phenomena (NICAP). 

That politician was Jimmy Carter, who went on to become the United States' 39th president.

A new episode of NASA’s Unexplained Files, which airs Tuesday at 9 p.m. on the Science Channel, explores Carter’s UFO filing.

Author William J. Birnes said in the episode: "When he looks up in the sky and he sees an object, it is bigger than the moon. He says to himself, 'That is the darndest thing I ever saw.'"

There is no reasonable explanation for what Carter saw that October night, but it continued to occupy his mind.

During Carter’s 1976 presidential campaign, he brought up his UFO encounter. He promised that if he was elected, he would encourage the government to release “every piece of information” about UFOs to the public.

While Carter did win the election, he later backed away from his promise, saying that the release of such documents would cause national security “defense implications."

In a 2007 interview with CNN, Carter was asked about his UFO sighting, to which he replied: “It was unidentified as far as we were concerned, but I think it’s impossible in my opinion — some people disagree — to have space people from other planets or other stars to come to us. I don’t think that’s possible.”

Ex-NASA astronaut says aliens are ‘in the universe’ and here’s why we haven’t found them

A former astronaut thinks he has exposed the truth about life on other planets.And as it turns out, the creatures are all over our universe – he believes.LeroyChiao, 56, from Milwaukee, – who logged nearly 230 days in space – has revealed the secret to finding them.

Mr Chiao said: “I have had the privilege of flying to space and I have gazed down at our home planet.”

“I believe that life is always starting out in some parts of the universe at the same time that it is dying out in others,” he wrote on The Christian Science Monitor.“We don’t know about each other, simply because the distances are so vast.“We won’t easily find evidence of alien life around another star, especially those that are hundreds of millions of lightyears away, or more.”Boffins were excited by the new alien world on Earth’s cosmic doorstep, a planet orbiting Proxima Centauri, the closest neighbouring star to the Sun.

IS THIS REALLY A CLOSE ENCOUNTER? Off duty cops claim to have filmed a UFO in the skies above England

The sighting lasted around 30 minutes and shows the object move slowly across the sky.

THIS is the moment two police officers claim to have captured their close encounter with a UFO on camera.

The duo watched as the cigar shaped object moved slowly across the sky over the North East of England.

Two police officers say they had a close encounter with a UFO – and even managed to capture the unexplained phenomena on camera

The UFO was said to be filmed by two off-duty police officers near Consett, in County Durham.

The sighting, which lasted around 30 minutes, is one of hundreds made by police officers over the past 115 years.

Former police detective Gary Heseltine has studied the footage and believes it is genuine.

He said: “It was filmed by two off-duty police officers near Consett, in County Durham. On what was a bright clear day, the object was seen to rotate on its own axis in a vertical position.”

Gary added: “They object was estimated to be at an altitude of approximately 1,000ft to 5,000ft with dimensions of 200 to 400 feet in length. Note the sun glinting off what appears to be a metallic surface as it rotates.”

Gary, 56, has collected and studied more than 500 police sightings dating back to 1901 involving around 1,000 officers.

And he has revealed how two security officers, who were guarding one of Margaret Thatcher’s key Cabinet members, witnessed a cylindrical metallic UFO the size of a football field over the house in North Yorkshire in Spring 1981.

One officer was so alarmed he pulled out his gun but his colleague warned him not to fire.

Another case involved two uniformed officers who saw a huge black silent triangle the size of three football pitches fly over the A40 in Northholt in Middlesex.

Revealing another incident, Gary, who now edits UFO Truth Magazine, said: “Three uniformed police officers parked up in a rural area when they saw a bright flash on the horizon near Long Crendon, Bucks.

“Several minutes later a huge object ‘appeared’ in front of them, the size of a football field, and was shining a wide beam of light across the terrain that was the width of a football field.

“Approximately six other small objects were seen flying around the larger craft akin to a ‘mothership’ type scenario. After several minutes the craft simply disappeared from view in the blink of an eye.”

Gary Heseltine has collected and studied more than 500 police sightings dating back to 1901 involving around 1,000 officers.

The retired cop, who was heavily involved in the Selby rail disaster in 2001, believes the truth really is out there after he witnessed a UFO as a teenager.

Gary, who is married with two daughters, said: “I had my own sighting as a 16 year old boy in Scunthorpe, Lincs, in 1976 when I was walking a then girlfriend home.

“As we walked along a dark narrow path we saw a bright white light that appeared to trigger several power grid failures. I then rode home and was able to predict almost to the very second where there would be another power cut after the object passed over my home.”

In 2002 Gary set up the Police Reporting UFO Sightings (PRUFOS) database to log reports from serving and retired officers. He started with just a handful but it has grown to 500 from 1,000 officers dating back to 1901.

In 2013, he decided to retire early to become a full-time UFO detective.

He said: “During my police service I had two off duty sightings, one seeing three bright objects holding an arrowhead shape formation high in the sky against a backdrop of night stars and a daytime sighting where I saw with binoculars a silver metallic looking sphere as it passed parallel to my home.”

Gary, who lives in Scholes, West Yorkshire, is writing a book called ‘UFOs – Through Police Eyes’.

He recently called on the Defence Minister Michael Fallon to make a new statement about the infamous Rendlesham Forest incident of 1980 when military personnel saw UFOs over the twin airbases of RAF Woodbridge and RAF Bentwaters in Suffolk.

A spokesman from the MOD said: “In over 50 years no UFO report has ever revealed anything to suggest a military threat to the UK.”

Pentagon officials are funding a secretive UFO-hunting operation… in the heart of London

AMERICAN-FUNDED UFO hunters are apparently scouring space for signs of alien life – from a secretive base in the heart of London.

The Ministry of Defence was set to axe its UFO department back in 2009, when officials from the American secret service stepped in to save the obscure MoD operation.

And apparently, Pentagon bosses decided that the best spot to continue the hunt for alien life was in Soho, right next to the HQ of film giant 20th Century Fox.

The secretive London office can be found in Soho Square, where British and American UFO-hunters scan the skies for proof that we are not alone.

Funded largely by US tax dollars, the office includes a small team of Brits alongside the largely American workforce, with the secretive department overseen by an American colonel.

A serving military source told The Express: “There was pressure from a similar unit in the Pentagon which wanted to incorporate the MoD unit.

“It was decided to move the unit to Soho Square and I understand that it now has a number of American personnel.

“The relocation was even accidentally published in the MoD’s magazine, though few noticed.

“The operation took on a new role overseen by the Pentagon. It does, however, report directly to the MoD.”

British and US analysts are apparently operating from a secret UFO-hunter HQ in Soho.

Although the bulk of the operation deals with the militarisation of space, the search for alien life is still included in the team’s brief.

Although the MoD refuses to discuss individual units, Liz Quintana, director of military sciences at the Royal United Services think tank, said: “Britain has maintained its interest in space and the issue of UFOs.

“It would not surprise me if the UK and US had an office here.

“Space is becoming increasingly contested and congested. Some of this is peaceful, some of it has dual use and some distinctly nefarious. Russia and China particularly are active.”

The Mystery of Rh-Negative Blood

What Does the absence of Rhesus monkey factor mean?

No solid scientific explanation exists as to how or why Rh- blood came about. It is presumed to be the result of a random mutation. Have you ever felt you were weird or different? It may be due to your DNA … 85% of humans have the monkey gene (RH+) and 15% do not (RH-) and maybe have an alien gene instead. RH- people are characterized by higher IQs, sensitive vision, lower body temperatures, sensitivity to heat and sunlight, psychic power, ability to stop watches and electrical appliances and having extra vertebrae…

Of the human blood types, O is the most common. It is a universal blood type. Blood types are further broken down into two groups, negative and positive. This is called the RH factor. The RH factor is the Rhesus (rhesus as in monkey) blood factor. If your blood tests positive for this, you have the factor in your blood. If you test negative, you do not have the factor in your blood. The RH factor is a protein found in the human blood that is directly linked to the Rhesus Monkey.

When blood type is inherited from your parents, it is known that this factor element of the blood is the most consistent human or animal characteristic passed on to the off spring. There are VERY few aberrations. It rarely changes.

Most people, about 85%, have RH-positive blood. That could support the idea that humans evolved or were derived from Primates. 15 % of humans have RH-negative blood. If blood type is one of least mutable human characteristic, where did the RH negative come from? This question has puzzled scientists for years. There is some evidence that suggests the RH-negative blood group may have appeared about 35,000 years ago. And the appearance was regional and seemed to, originally, be connected with certain groups/tribes of people.

Northern Spain and Southern France is where you can find some of the highest concentration of the RH-negative factor in the Basque people. Another original group were the Eastern/Oriental Jews. In general, about 40 – 45% of Europeans have the RH-negative group. Only about 3% of African descendent and about 1% of Asian or Native American descendent has the RH-negative group. Due to the larger European numbers, it is a safe bet that was where it was introduced into the human genetic code. Could this also be where the Caucasian was introduced? Is the introduction of Caucasian related to the RH-blood factor.

If the RH-negative factor is a ‘normal’ presentation of blood, then why is there a problem when a mother of the RH-negative blood group gives birth to an RH-positive blood group baby. This Hemolytic disease, actually an allergic reaction, can cause death when the two different blood groups are mingled during pregnancy. When the antigenic substances attack the negative blood group it can destroy the blood cells. So why does the human body produce antigens to this blood type? Is the blood group alien?

The only other time this occurs in nature is, as an example, when donkeys and horses are crossed to produce mules. This is not ‘natural’ because left alone in the wild, these animals would never cross breed. Only with intervention would this happen. Was there a cross breeding of two human like beings, similar but genetically different?

People with RH-negative blood group have certain characteristics that seem to be common among the majority. Here is a brief list of the most common.

¨ Extra vertebra.
¨ Higher than average IQ
¨ More sensitive vision and other senses.
¨ Lower body temperature
¨ Higher blood pressure
¨ Increased occurrence of psychic/intuitive abilities
¨ Predominantly blue, green, or Hazel eyes
¨ Red or reddish hair
¨ Has increased sensitivity to heat and sunlight
¨ Cannot be cloned
¨ Alien Abduction and other unexplained phenomenon

So what does this mean? What can be concluded?

The appearance of RH-negative blood did not follow the usual evolutionary path. In fact, evolution would seem to be ruled out as a possible cause of the anomaly. It has been proven that blood is the least likely to mutate. There are no other blood mutations. The introduction of the RH-negative blood type was not a naturally occurring part of human evolution.

This would lend credence that the RH-negative factor was introduced from an outside source. Could the source be from human like beings from another planet? Or maybe we are just as alien as they are, in that, we are a product of their manipulation and interference. Could they have come here and manipulated life forms already present on earth to create modern man?

Many ancient texts, including, the Bible, do support this theory. Many stories in the ancient texts, especially pre-Christian texts, do tell about a race that from the Heavens to the Earth Came. And they created man in their image. Man saw them as gods, living long lives and performing miracles. Flying about in the sky ships and shooting fire and creating ear-shattering booms. The humans watched as these gods built massive and glorious houses and created beautiful cities for themselves. From man’s primitive point of view, they were gods. But that was early man’s point of view.

Who were the gods? The ancient stories tell us a lot about these gods. They obviously had advanced technology capable of space travel and air travel. They knew about aviation, metallurgy, the universe, the cosmic progression, medicine and evidently genetics. They knew about atomic energy and weapons and used them. Evidence of this can be found on Earth. They knew about agriculture and how to create more nutritious grains and other food staples. All of the basic grains that humans rely on for food have been determined to have all appeared at the same time spanning roughly a 10,000 year period. A very short time, geologically speaking. And no new grain has since been developed.

Our ancient texts tell us they began to take humans for their spouses. The Bible says, and the gods looked upon woman and found her pleasant to behold and took her as their wives. They had children, many children. But not all humans were a result of interbreeding. The first human was a result of scientific research combining primates with the gods’ genes. The first humans were not a product of interbreeding. But small portions of humans are a result of this interbreeding and their blood type can support this.

In the first part of this article, I described to you what happens when two species who similar but genetically different interbreed. They produce hybrids. The example I gave was about horses, donkeys, and mules. Mules are the hybrid, the product of a union between a horse and a donkey. However, mules are born sterile because there is no genetic relationship between the horse and the donkey.

When humans were first created, they were a product of two genetically similar but not related species.

The combination of the DNA of the primates and the gods was produced ‘artificially’ in a lab. If the gods have the technology to create a new species, they would have no problem overcoming the problem of the hybrids being sterile. A little genetic manipulation and it would no longer be an issue.

Three proto types of humans were created. Each one successively more advanced. Two types by design and the last by chance.Neanderthal Man is suspected of being an early humanoid created by the gods but Cro-magnon was definitely a product of their intervention. The next type is whom we call pre-human and then we have modern man. Modern man was a result of interbreeding between the gods and pre-humans. This interbreeding for the most part created no problems in the resulting offspring, except for a line that inherited, from their godly parents, the RH-negative blood type.

This is supported by the fact that these humans did not inherit the protein found in the blood that is directly linked to the Rhesus Monkey. They did not inherit it because one of their parents did not have the monkey protein. This protein is present only because combining primate DNA with DNA from the gods created the original human proto-type that carried the monkey protein. So in conclusion, I suggest that man is a creation of a highly technological race of human like beings that From the Heavens to the Earth came. I suggest that these advanced beings are still among us today and are still very active in the affairs of man. To what end, I can only suggest.

Global Blood suppliers managed to infect or kill 90% of Hemophiliacs in world by providing them with tainted blood. If Hemophiliac is the “Royal Disease”, woe to generations of boys, who could not be king. Worldwide, over 120,000 men, women and boys…a true “genetic holocaust”…are now infected with HIV worldwide…due to tainted blood transfusions At least 25,000 have died.

In some areas, the Rh-Negative blood factor is referred to as “Blood Royale” or “Royal Blood”. For centuries, European royalty have been inflicted with Hemophilia or “bleeders disease”. Apparently, Queen Victoria was a “carrier” of Hemophilia and gave it to all of her children who then intermarried and infected the bloodlines of very throne in Europe during the 1800s and 1900s.

As a direct result, Hemophilia became known as the “Royal Disease”. To keep this in perspective, only about 5% of all “royalty” have Rh-Factor negative blood…which means “less than the general population. That would indicate that the vast majority of “rulers” and “monarchs” are NOT Rhesus-factor negative. Is this by chance? or by genetic engineering called “arranged marriages”?

For all practical purposes the cultural group with the highest rates of Rh-negative blood are the “Berbers” of Morocco. In an earlier meme, i indicated that the highest concentration of Rh-Factor Negative was from Iraq. It seems that the Berbers may actually have originated thousands of years ago, from the border of Syria and Iraq.

If European royalty are no disposed to intermarriage with Rh-Negs, it may be because they are avoiding the “arab” bloodline? Let’s not get ahead of ourselves. It appears that the Basque Rh-neg factors come from ancient Berber sea farers as early as 8,000 BC! Perhaps, many of the “cave paintings” may be attributed to “strangers” of great artistic ability that migrated into the area.

Is “hyper-creativity” a “symptom” of Rh-Negative Blood? Artists? Entertainers? Who knows…but if European Royalty refuse to marry into the Rh Negative blood line it means one thing…Rh-Neg people are a “competing royal line”.

How do you get rid of it once and for all? Although the British would love for you to think that Victoria was the world’s first carrier…don’t be confused. It was he Hapsburg’s disease. Was Victoria a Hapsburg?

The unofficial motto of the Hapsburg family was “Bella gerunt alii, tu, felix Austria, nubes!” (”Where others must fight wars, you, fortunate Austria, marry!).

It’s curious that “marriage” can be a “dynastic” undertaking but it can also be a perverse form of “bio-warfare” or “genetic warfare”. In fact, the disease was much more ancient.

The “Father of Surgery” was El Zarhawi or Albucasis, 1013-1106. Albucasis described a family where only males died from blood loss after the most trivial of injury.

– http://www.unhas.ac.id/~rhiza/saintis/zahravi.html  

His full name was Abul Qasim Khalaf ibn al-Abbas al-Zahravi. He was born and brought up in Zahra (zorro?) , the royal suburb of Cordova (Arabic Qurtuba), the capital of Muslim Spain. As we know from the history, Zahra competed in grandeur and magnificence with Baghdad. Al-Zahravi served in the capacity of the court physician to King Al-Hakam-II of Spain. After a long and distinguished medical career he died in 1013 C.E.

As an inventor of many surgical instruments, Al-Zahravi is famous for developing instruments for internal examination of the ear, internal inspection of the urethra and for applying or removing foreign bodies from the throat. He introduced such new procedures as cauterization of wounds, crushing stones inside the bladder, the vivisection and dissection.

He applied cauterization procedure to as many as 50 different operations. In addition, Al-Zahravi discussed the preparation of medicines and the application of such techniques as sublimation and decantation. He prescribed the use of diuretics, sudorifics, purgatives, the absorption of pure wine and hot baths. Al-Zahravi was the first to give detailed description hemophilia and was the first to use silk thread for stitching wounds.

So, you begin to wonder if the good doctor was treating an “Arab” family in Moorish Spain for the disease. Then you begin to wonder just where a supposed blue blood like Victoria got her “Arab Royalty Disease”??? Was it a disease of Spanish Royalty?

In other words, was marriage to Victoria’s daughters a way to kill or weaken future “non-Hapsburg” kings…since mostly males only contract the disease from their mothers? Still, Hemophilia was in Royalty long before Victoria.

Victoria’s daughters passed the disease into the Spanish, German and Russian Royal lines and threatened the thrones of all of Europes major powers. It would appear that Victoria is actually a direct descendant of Ferdinand of Castille, who retook he city of Castille in 1236, where the surgeon Abulcasis had counseled King Hakam II about a family who’s sons died easily.

What’s the connection between Hemophilia, Rh-Negative, AIDS and Royal Blood?

http://therhnegativefactor.webs.com/chapter1.htm

 As you can see the vast majority of RH- people come from the Basque people of France and Spain, and then Europe has the second highest percentage.  We can surmise that the RH- blood type originates out of Europe and has spread over to other countries that contain European ancestry heritage.  The RH- recessive alleles (+/-) make up approximately 60% of the Basque people and 40% of the Europeans, so that means that a higher percentage of RH+ people in Europe are carrying the genetics of the RH- factor in their DNA.

*************************************************************************************************

“No one has tried to explain where the Rh negative people came from. Most, familiar with blood factors, admit that these people must at least be a mutation if not descendants of a different ancestor. If we are a mutation, what caused the mutation? Why does it continue with the exact characteristics? Why does it so violently reject the Rh factor, if it was in their own ancestry? Who was this ancestor? Difficulties in determining ethnology are largely overcome by the use of blood group data, for they are a single gene characteristic and not affected by the environment.

The Basque people of Spain and France have the highest percentage of Rh negative blood. About 30% have (rr) Rh negative and about 60% carry one (r) negative gene. The average among most people is only 15%-Rh negative, while some groups have very little. The Oriental Jews of Israel, also have a high percent Rh negative, although most other Oriental people have only about 1% Rh negative. The Samaritans and the Black Cochin Jew also have a high percentage of Rh negative blood, although again the Rh negative blood is rare among most black people.

http://www.greatdreams.com/reptlan/rhneg.htm

*************************************************************************************************
The Basque people are also known for having the oldest language in Europe, and the origins of the Basque language are unknown.  The languages in neighboring countries in Europe show no resemblance to the Basque language, so this has become a real mystery to the linguist.

The Celtic people of Ireland and Great Britain also have high incidences of the RH- factor and it has recently been proven that there is a genetic link between the Basque and the Celts.  This research proves that the Celtic people came from the Basque regions of France and Spain and a group must have migrated over to the islands of Great Britain.  With this research I can surmise that my family got this distinct blood type from our French and Irish ancestry roots. 

*************************************************************************************************

Genes link Celts to Basques

The Welsh and Irish Celts have been found to be the genetic blood-brothers of Basques, scientists have revealed.

The gene patterns of the three races passed down through the male line are all “strikingly similar”, researchers concluded.

‘Statistically indistinguishable’

He and his colleagues looked at Y-chromosomes, passed from father to son, of Celtic and Norwegian populations. They found them to be quite different.

“But we also noticed that there’s something quite striking about the Celtic populations, and that is that there’s not a lot of genetic variation on the Y-chromosome,” he said.

To try to work out where the Celtic population originally came from, the team from UCL, the University of Oxford and the University of California at Davis also looked at Basques.

“On the Y-chromosome the Celtic populations turn out to be statistically indistinguishable from the Basques,” Professor Goldstein said.

Why are people calling RH negatives “blue bloods”?  Well, again a peculiar thing happens between an RH- mother and a second RH+ baby.  As you may remember an RH- mother builds up antibodies against the RH+ baby, and this means that the babies blood will start to agglutinate.  Before the rhoGAM shot, babies were born blue and they needed to have blood transfusions to survive.

Blue blood is an expression from the Spanish phrase “sangre azul,”indicating noble birth or descent. This is said to derive from the fact that the native Spanish had fairer skin, which displays veins more prominently, than people of Arab origin. After the Moorish occupation of Spain, intermarriage occurred. The result seems to have been that the aristocracy, particularly certain families inCastille, who would not mix with the Moors, showed rather bluer blood vessels (in, for example, the back of the hand) than the ordinary folk.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_blood

So the phrase blue blood came to refer to the blood which flowed in the veins of the oldest and most aristocratic families. The phrase was taken over into English in the 1830s. By the time Anthony Trollope used it in The Duke’s Children in 1880, it had become common.

NASA to Send Autonomous Submarine to Explore Titan’s Sceans

By: Nidhi Goyal 

NASA

NASA plans to develop a submarine to explore Titan’s frigid oceans.

Titan, Saturn’s largest moon, is more similar to the Earth than any other body in the solar system, especially its atmosphere, which has layers just like our planet.

Conversely, Titan is extremely cold, with the average surface temperature around 94 degrees Kelvin (minus 179 C, or minus 290 F). Titan is so cold that water is frozen as hard as granite. It also has oceans of liquid methane and no water, but scientists still wonder if life based on methane could exist on Titan.

An autonomous submarine will explore the depths of Titan’s oceans and search for signs of life

The submarine will carry all the required instruments to measure the chemical composition of Titan’s oceans, the currents, tides, and the structure of the ocean floor.

The submarine will be fully autonomous. It will be packed with all kinds of meteorological tools, sensors, cameras, radars, and sonar equipment to facilitate a complete exploration. The submarine would be able to communicate with the Earth as well.

The project is still in the conceptual stage. A first mission has been tentatively scheduled for 2038 when Earth and Saturn are aligned properly.

Er is iets bijzonders aan de maan vanavond - nieuwsblad.be

We krijgen vanavond een ‘superoogstbloedmaan’ te zien. Drie natuurfenomenen vallen samen en zullen de maan een uitzicht geven dat we pas in 2024 opnieuw zien.

In de ‘Super Harvest Blood Moon’ (superoogstbloedmaan) komen drie fenomenen samen.

Ten eerste een oogstmaan. 

Dat is wanneer een volle maan dicht bij de equinox valt. Dit jaar valt de equinox, wanneer dag en nacht precies even lang zijn, op 22 september. De zon gaat dan onder op hetzelfde moment als als de maan opkomt. Daardoor krijgt de maan een vollere gloed. Het werd vroeger de oogstmaan genoemd, omdat landbouwers door het extra maanlicht meer tijd kregen om hun oogst binnen te halen.

Ten tweede een supermaan.

Doordat de maan in een elips rond de aarde draait, staat ze soms verder of dichter bij de aarde. Als de volle maan opkomt terwijl ze dicht bij de aarde staat, lijkt ze groter.

Ten derde een bloedmaan.

Die krijg je wanneer de aarde tussen de maan en de zon komt te staan. Daardoor werpt ze een schaduw op de maan, die daardoor een meer gedempte kleur krijgt. Doordat het licht van de zon door de atmosfeer van de aarde passeert voor ze op de maan valt, kan die zelfs een oranje tot rode glans krijgen.

De laatste keer dat die drie fenomenen samenvielen was in 1982, de volgende keer zal het pas in 2024 gebeuren. Let dus vanavond op de grote (1) maan met volle gloed (2) en roodachtige kleur (3).

A Quick Rundown: The Five Closest Exoplanets That Could Potentially Support Life

 

A star system known as TRAPPIST-1 has three potentially Earth-like planets in its orbit. This is an artist's impression of the TRAPPIST-1 star system as seen from one of the three alien planets.

IN BRIEF

In our quest for life beyond our little blue planet, Astronomers have identified five other planets (aside from the nearby Proxima b) that can potentially support life.

THE HIGH FIVE

Astronomers have long been seeking an Earth-like planet that could support some form of life. One prominent discovery is the Proxima Centauri b, also known as Proxima b, which was found in the habitable zone of the red dwarf star, Proxima Centauri.

Despite these discoveries, there’s still a lot to learn.

“We know very little about these [types of] planets,” Thomas Barclay, senior research scientist and director of the Kepler and K2 missions, told Space.com.

So let’s go over what we do know about five of the closest Earth-like planets to us.

Wolf 1061c

Located in the habitable zone of Wolf 1060 in the Ophiuchus constellation, this exoplanet is 4.3 times as large as the Earth, and is believed to have a rocky surface. It is also the second-nearest known exoplanet to us at 13.8 light-years from Earth, second only to Proxima b.

This is an artistic representation of the potentially habitable exoplanet Gliese 832 c compared to Earth. Gliese 832 c is represented here as a larger, temperate world covered in clouds.

Gliese 832c

At five times the size of the Earth, astronomers identified Gliese 832c as a “super-Earth.” It was found 16 light-years away and revolves around Gliese 832 in just 36 days.

Gliese 667Cc

Located 22 light-years away in the Scorpius constellation, Gliese 667Cc is also a super-Earth (3.9 times larger than Earth). It takes only 28 days for it to revolve around Gliese 667C.

TRAPPIST-1d

40 light-years away from Earth in the Aquarius constellation, TRAPPIST-1d is one among three Earth-like planets orbiting the dwarf star TRAPPIST-1.

Gliese 163c

Located 49 light-years away in the Dorado constellation, Gliese 163c is also a super-Earth at a whopping seven times that of the Earth. It takes 26 days for it to orbit Gliese 163.

What a tidally locked habitable Proxima b might look like.

MILLIONS OF CHANCES FOR LIFE OUT THERE

Using the Kepler Space Telescope, NASA has discovered more than 2,000 planets that could possibly support life, but there’s still so much mystery surrounding these alien worlds. “For some of them, we know an approximate mass or an approximate radius, and we know roughly how far they are from their star — but that’s really all we know.” said Barclay.

And while living on these exoplanets may be possible, it will be an entirely different experience as life forms would have to adapt differently to its unique temperature, climate and environment. On Proxima b, for example, 

“The light also isn’t the bright white-yellow light we get from the sun. It would be much more red. So, you would expect biology to evolve differently,” Barclay said, adding that solar flares from red dwarfs could also have a large impact on exoplanets orbiting them.

In the end, we won’t be packing our bags anytime soon to settle on one of Earth’s closest neighbors.

Arkansas witness reports triangle UFO at tree top

An Arkansas witness at Bella Vista and his wife rushed to a bedroom window after hearing “jet-like” sounds and watched a triangle-shaped object just 100 feet over the rooftop, according to testimony in Case 79100 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The object was moving slowly 100 feet over the rooftop. Pictured: Bella Vista, AR.

(Credit: Google)

The witness was lying in bed about 10 p.m. on September 11, 2016, when the incident began.

“I heard what sounded like an airplane about to crash or flying super low,” the witness stated.“We rushed to the bedroom window and saw a huge triangle-shaped aircraft flying about 100 feet above the house.”

The object moved away, but quickly returned as though it was looking for something. Pictured: Bella Vista, AR.

The witness and his wife moved outside.

“We watched it flying slowly and still very low. It seemed to have vanished in the tree line, but then came back out like it was looking for something. We saw red, blue, and white lights on a huge black triangle-shaped craft. We stood in the driveway and watched it as it left our sight. Every animal in the neighborhood was going crazy and just like that, it was gone.”

The MUFON report indicated that the witness was less than 500 feet from the object and that it was moving along at the tree top level. The report was filed on September 12, 2016. No images or videos were included with the report. Arkansas Assistant State Director Lynn Travis McCullough is investigating.

Belle Vista, AR, is about 120 miles northeast of Tulsa, OK.

Bella Vista is a city in Benton County, Arkansas, population 27,999. 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.
