MAGIC CIRCLE Moment UFO is ‘spotted flying in circles in the UK sky leaving a bizarre trail of bright white light in its wake’
MAGIC CIRCLEMoment UFO is ‘spotted flying in circles in the UK sky leaving a bizarre trail of bright white light in its wake’
The UFO was spotted above the Longleat Estate in Wiltshire
VIDEO
By Sara Kamouni
A UFO has been caught on camera in the sky over a hill on the Longleat Estate in Wiltshire.
The clip, taken by a resident of nearby Frome, Somerset, shows the UFO circling above National Trust-owned Cley Hill, leaving a trail of blazing white light behind it.
Somerset Live reports the area, near the town of Warminster, has a reputation as a UFO hotspot – and the local who spotted this particular object said it has been seen numerous times.
He told Somerset Live: “[It’s] probably a drone with a fancy flame effect tail or something. It’s been spotted a few times locally.”
The clip has caught the attention of so-called ‘sky watchers’ online – a community which studies clips of UFOs from around the world.
The well-known alien conspiracy YouTube channel SecureTeam10 posted the clip to YouTube and said the unique circular movement and bright light was like nothing they’d seen before – while others suggested it could be a meteor or acrobatic aeroplane.

Robert Bigelow says ET is Here
On 60 Minutes Bigelow Aerospace president Robert Bigelow said “there has been and is an existing presence, an ET presence” on or around Earth. “I’m absolutely convinced. That’s all there is to it,” Bigelow told Lara Logan.
Bigelow, whose company has partnered with NASA and Elon Musk’s SpaceX to test their immense, expandable spaceship habitats, inflated in orbit, has been a believer in UFOs as extraterrestrial phenomena since his grandparents reported encountering a craft that “sped up and came right into their face and filled up the entire windshield of the car.”
But Bigelow’s belief in extraterrestrials visiting Earth go far beyond conclusions reached from family anecdote and the public record, or so he implies. “I spent millions and millions and millions — I probably spent more as an individual than anybody else in the United States has ever spent on this subject.”
Bigelow noted during the interview that his grandparents spotted a UFO on a canyon road outside Las Vegas: “It really sped up and came right into their face and filled up the entire windshield of the car. And it took off at a right angle and shot off into the distance,” he told “60 Minutes” reporter Lara Logan.
. When Logan asked if he’s risking anything by taking a public stance that UFOs are visiting Earth, Bigelow said, “I don’t give a damn. I don’t care.”“It’s not going to make a difference. It’s not going to change reality of what I know,” he said. “You don’t have to anywhere… it’s just like right under people’s noses.”
If whatever Bigelow has found is so compelling, perhaps it’s time he share. Instead, Bigelow repeatedly hints at big secrets, sufficient for absolute certainty, that he’s simply not telling. The absence of evidence would be sufficient to dismiss most other UFO boasts of this nature. But in Bigelow’s case it’s not simply a naked claim, but one backed by an aerospace billionaire who has spent years privatizing vast troves of UFO evidence.
Shostak, however, takes Phil Klass’s place as the UFO skeptic.
“He’s not the only Silicon Valley type, entrepreneur in the tech industry, that thinks we’re
being visited,” Shostak said.
Even so, the solid evidence of these visitors is nonexistent. If there were some reason for modern-day alien visitors, Shostak said, someone would have strong evidence by now.
Dr. Bruce Cornet who worked for Bigelow ztates, “But Seth:There is overwhelming evidence of a UFO phenomenon. Ask astronomers to prove that stars exist, and the only thing they can give you is anecdotal evidence, instrument data, and photographs – the same things UFO witnesses give us. Are we to believe there is no SOLID evidence for the existence of stars, even though their sunlight reaches Earth like the UFO phenomenon, and UFOs can be detected like sunlight?”
But Seth: There are many examples of our ancestors in Italy, Greece, and Egypt reporting UFO like objects in the sky (even painting them there on canvasses), and describing them, such as Saint Anthony who reported that a silver-colored disc landed in the path he was taking to his cave in the desert, blocking his path. What about the Bible accounts of angels (aliens) and machines coming down to Earth from heaven (space). You should watch the History Channel programs: Ancient Aliens, to bring you up to speed. Thanks to Bruce Cornet. Link
Note: Of course the news media ignored Bigelow’s testimony, they’re too busy trying to destroy our elected government.
Chile Navy Releases Film of a UFO
Chile Navy releases film of a UFO captured by two experienced Navy officers from a helicopter on November 11, 2014. The Navy Captain stated that the object was a “flat, elongated structure” with “two thermal spotlights like discharges that did not coincide with the axel of motion.” The technician described it as as “white with a semi-oval shape on the horizontal axis.” He was testing a Wescam Forward looking FLIR infra red camera.
The exceptional nine-minute Navy video includes an UFO displaying highly unusual characteristics. Chilian and French scientists examined the video for several years with at least eight contentious meetings with s of the baffled Chilean FAA CEFAA scientific committee, which included the active Air Force General who directs the DGAC. According to CEFAA international affairs director Jose Lay, the general tone of the meetings was astonishment: No agreement could be reached to explain the video. An infrared camera was used that detects infrared energy (heat) and which is then processed to produce a thermal black image on a video monitor. Without the camera, it would have been difficult to see the white object against the sky and impossible to capture this remarkable footage. It makes one wonder what kind of activities may take place within clouds that are unknown to us. YouTube
Interview with John Lear
David Wilcock and Corey Goode, and in this episode bring you none other than John Lear, the son of the inventor of the Learjet. I bring you John Lear. John Lear states, “I know that my father was the prime contractor for anti-gravity in 1952. And I’ve got the papers on that. Unfortunately for him, he couldn’t keep his mouth shut.”
And he went down to Bogota in 1953 and started talking about UFOs. So as close as he was, they kicked him out of the program, but Lear, Incorporated, still kept with that antigrav stuff.
And I think that was totally complete by 1956, which means we had saucers then – you know, the whole enchilada by then.
UFOLogy needs to listen to ancient ‘myth’ and stop thinking “nuts and bolts.” Ancient myth gives us many of the answers, if we’d listen. Problem is, we’ve bastardized it all.
And, of course, what they were doing is . . . and what tipped me off is one of the videos they had when the shuttle got there, they opened the door, and it’s only half full. So what they were doing is taking as much stuff that they could for the astronauts that were doing all the secret stuff, and, of course, the things they had to have like fruit and perishables and stuff. And that had to go up and be unloaded. And then the Russians would always launch the same day that the shuttle launched. And that stuff that they had in their rocket would be transferred to the shuttle, and when it came back down, the reason it took them two days is they were going to all the different space stations and dropping all the stuff off that the Russians had given. Which brings me to the Cold War. I think that was all bullshit. There was never any Cold War. We’ve always been allied with the Russians.
Kwajalein is where all the secret stuff goes. All those launches are out in the South Pacific.
And Kwajalein Island, the Ronald Reagan, they launch probably every other day. There’s probably 1,000 astronauts currently qualified that go up all the time. So I was working ATS, Above Top Secret, or wherever it was, and we were talking about the discrepancies with the shuttle going up and taking 48 hours to get to the ISS, when it only took the Russians an hour. And then the same thing, when they disengaged from the ISS, why did it take them over 48 hours to come back?
John Lear is describing how his father with his aeronautics company apparently was put in charge of developing anti-gravity, or at least was one of the groups tasked with that.
Corey: Right. David: And he was essentially excised from the anti-gravity research, even though his own company was still involved in it. And therefore, he believes that by 1956 that we actually had working flying saucers. So let’s just start with that little piece of data, and what does your experience and background suggest is the truth behind what he just said about this? Corey: Well, the way you stated it was accurate, because they were . . . like Tompkins was doing. They were seeding this information to many different engineers and companies. I mean, if you have five different groups with five different engineering teams, they all do not come up with the same concept.
Then you have five different or a few different concepts that are being worked on by different teams that are not cross-pollinating or polluting each other.
David: Now, the next thing that he got into was the times, you know, 1952 and 1956, where he thinks we had working prototypes. That sounds pretty close to some of what you said on the show.
David: Now, you’d mentioned before that the U.S. had gotten to a certain point in its own research, but it essentially hit a brick wall, and that, therefore, the Nazi breakaway faction over flights of Washington, D.C., in 1952 that kind of forced a truce to be made, that the U.S. wanted to do that in part because they needed intel from the Germans to be able to perfect their own antigravity. Is that still true?
Corey: Yes. David: So what do you think was going on with Lear Aeronautics at this point? Was it only the German influence that then actually got them to perfect that technology by, as he said, 1956? Corey: From far behind the scenes, this German breakaway group had infiltrated the military industrial complex. Right after Paperclip, the infiltration had started. And then after the overflights, and we made the agreement with the Nazi group, then, yes, they infiltrated like crazy after that.
David: So how do those numbers fit with what you’ve heard about the Military Industrial Complex (MIC) program? Not a whole lot of specifics on the numbers, but there were a number of islands that they were launching these multistage rockets, like old rockets.
Corey: And they were servicing . This is also how they created some of these space stations. Some of these MIC space stations are made out of different stages of rockets that, once they were used to leave orbit, they then ferried these pieces together, sort of welded them together in almost a circle, but more of like a flattened circle. Like an octagon. And they would have like two or three layers of those, and in the middle, they have more of those types, like fuselage or stages of rockets. And then the station spins, creating like a third gravity or something like that. And the shuttles would come and dock at the top of the spoke of the wheel. they used the space shuttle, tonventional rockets, and later on when they started developing these larger, triangular shuttles They had plenty of room to bring all of the food and stuff up, and back.
Note: The MIC SSP allegedly is entirely separate to a more advanced Navy Space Program known as “Solar Warden”, which Goode says he served in during a “twenty year and back” tour of duty from 1987 to 2007.
Contracts were issued for development and construction in 2014, and the Space Fence is expected to be operational in 2019.[1] The budget is US$1.594 billion (FY15).[2]
Paul Murad writes, I remember trying to solve a fluid dynamic stability problem. The conventional wisdom was to extend an exponential solution and see what would happen. Great scientists failed.
I looked at the similar boundary-layer equation and using Lyapunov’s approach, suction tends to generate stability while blowing unstable. This could be used to look at transient flow problems. Anyway, My paper was published in an AIAA paper.
What is the lesson for this? If you have a problem, the AI search would look into existing methodologies to find solutions. Here is the benefit but, could AI create an original thought? This is the 64,000 dollar question. It could only use what was previously created. Creativity leaves AI in the dust.
.Now, why am I concerned? I finished my UFO course out of OLLI/GMU I did this several years ago and found that I needed to add additional ‘new’ information, especially about skinny Mike and Bill.
ome amigos in Brazil, during the course, I was able to identify that many crashes occurred especially after Roswell. The earliest on was in Nazi Germany in 1937 as well as finding part of a vehicle in the Kiev, Soviet Union region. The Germans used this technology while the xenophobic Russians hid their treasure moving it to Moscow.
The Nazis attacked in the Eurasia region. Findings in these aliens suddenly jumped occurred especially after the Trinity nuclear bomb explosion.
Crashes were also found strictly from Brazil while the former picture is sometimes referred to as a Russian activity and possibly incorrectly informed as Roswell. At Roswell, the methodology claims one dead, one was wounded and soon died, while the third lived for some time of period before dying. I doubt is there were two bodies together out of Roswell…
What commonalities occurred with all of these bodies assuming they came from the same species? Although they had ribs, no expansion or expulsion in the lungs seemed to appear. All of these guys did not have a helmet so they could live in our environment. This is in contrast to ancient historical artifacts which imply aliens used helmets. They do not have a mouth nor do they appear to eat. Sex is not of sufficient size for females to allow propagation. Their missions appear to gain some human DNA for some yet to be established reason. Their basic body is slim and their long arms are extended usually with three large fingers.
Now the question is that these crashes have crashed in several different nations to go as far as a situation in Saudi Arabia. One may argue they literally fall out of the sky/In Russia they are shot down. There appears to be a war with these aliens and the Russians, since most of their cities have a sophisticated air-defense systems.
Russian Su-27 on afterburner for pursuing a saucer.
The point is that saucers are literally falling out of the sky all over the world.
Admittedly they are from several different species and these devices were not only saucers, but triangles as well as stranger vehicles.
Some saucers and something that looks like antennae or else in China.
This loss of saucers and personnel represent significant assets. Why is there no response about these vehicles falling out of the sky that we are aware of? Why do these creatures appear to be so focused? If their owners do not care, my view is that these are not the specific species itself, but to look at these as nothing more than biological robots. The behavior appears to be robotic; however, they have clear biological capabilities. They represent advances in AI which appear to be limited with knowledge possibly to go back into the past or in one case, being intellectual at the equivalent of two Ph.Ds.
This leaves us with a different perspective. Several sources claim being involved with aliens and would like for us to believe that these aliens care about us and although they are focused on atomic weapon locations or missiles, they care about humanity going over the top with a nuclear war. I do not accept this premise at all. I feel this is nonsense.
Let me explain why. Dr. Brandenburg implies that based on the Mars Rover and Spectrometer on a satellite in orbit about Mars has found unusual isotopes. The typical NASA geologist would generally ignore these elements. However, if you possess knowledge and expertise building nuclear weapons, these isotopes are basically the consequences of nuclear fission/fusion explosions. Mars appears to demonstrate a civilization that once existed. What occurred?
We would like to provide a hypothesis. The sun is large and billions of years ago, there was a planet named by the Russians as Phaeton. This planet was between Mars and Jupiter. As the Sun’s mass is converted into energy, the gravitational mass decreases and the orbits of these planets move further away. Phaeton enters the Goldilocks’ zone and develops biology to create some sorts of being. In time, with more loss of mass in the Sun, Mars also enters the Goldilocks’ zone possibly billions of years later and develops their own civilization.
Apparently, Mars and Phaeton did not get along. Mars won in terms of the Phaeton planet being disintegrated resulting in an asteroid belt. However, in a nuclear war, no one really wins, The Martians are contaminated and if they exist, any civilizations are below the surface. The point is that if these events occurred, why did not aliens come to save them? It did not happen. They were truly only watchers.
Others claim aliens claim that humanity is too violent because we killed each other. This is trash. All biological forms on the Earth, from insects to birds, lions, and fish are violent. If this occurs in our planet, why would these lesser beings operate in a different fashion in their so-called advanced world?
Anyway, some of these possibilities are really questionable. Moreover, regarding AI, it will show some limitations and that they can only act as a means of data selection, although important, creativity is absence with AI. Hence, mankind will still survive despite such a threat…Thanks to Paul Murad

FIG. 3. Perspective view of the corner angle β for the equilateral triangle.
(D) is located on the bottom surface in each of the three corners.
CLAIMS(4)
A spacecraft comprised of the following components:
(a) a triangular hull in the form of an equilateral triangle;
(b) two copper plates attached on opposite vertical sides at each of the three corners of the hull (1 a) such that a sharp vertical edge is formed where they come together;
(c) an electrostatic generator used to charge the back two copper-cladded corners (1 b) to a high positive voltage, and the third forward copper-cladded corner to a high negative voltage;
(d) a horizontal slot antenna array mounted-on the sides of the hull; and
(e) a frequency generator, antenna and coaxial cables to drive the antenna array (1 d).
2. To create, by claims (1a, 1b, 1 c), an intense vertical line charge at the corners (1 b) and a horizontal electric field that that is parallel to the sides of the hull (1 a);
3. To create, by claims (1d,1e), an electromagnetic wave with a vertically polarized electric field traveling outward from the side of the hull (1 a); and
4. To create, by claims (2,3), an interaction of the electrostatic field (2) with the electromagnetic wave (3) such that a combined spacetime curvature pressure is generated on the hull in the upward and forward direction to produce lift and propulsion respectively.
DESCRIPTION -BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
This invention is a spacecraft having a triangular hull with vertical electrostatic line charges on each corner. The line charges create a horizontal electric field that, together with a plane wave emitted by antennas on the side of the hull, generates a force per volume providing a unique combination of both lift and propulsion.
Referring to FIG. 6, these three stresses are plotted together as a 3D vector field animated over time in nine frames. The graphs show that there is a lift force as depicted.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
This invention is a spacecraft with a triangular hull having charged flat plates on the vertical corners of the three sides. The two rear corners are charged to a potential V. The forward corner is charged to a potential −V. The 60° angle on the corner creates a line charge density singularity that produces a huge horizontal electric field pointing from the back to the front of the craft which is also parallel to the sides of the triangle. An array of horizontal slot antennas located on the sides of the triangular hull produce an electromagnetic wave with the electric field polarized in the vertical direction. This combination of fields produces a spacetime force in both the vertical and horizontal directions such that the spacecraft receives a lift force and a force of propulsion.
The A parabolic antenna (E) is centrally located in the bottom of the hull.antenna (A) is made out of sheet copper in which a rectangular horizontal slot (B) has been notched out using a die press and sheet metal fixture. A coaxial cable from the amplifier and frequency generator is attached across the slot by soldering the outer cable (D) to one side of the slot and the inner cable (E) to the other side of the slot. This creates the positive and negative charges across the gap which forms the vertical electric field (F) which radiates out perpendicularly to the copper sheet. Details at: Patent Link
How Suicide Bomber in Manchester Funded Attack with Student
The terrorist Salman Abedi is understood to have received thousands of pounds in government funding in the run up to Monday’s atrocity even while he was overseas receiving bomb-making training. Police are investigating Abebi’s finances, including how he paid for frequent trips to Libya where he is thought to have been taught to make bombs at a jihadist training camp. Abedi’s finances are a major ‘theme’ of the police inquiry amid growing alarm over the ease with which jihadists are able to manipulate Britain’s welfare and student loans system to secure financing. One former detective said, “Jihadists were enrolling on university courses to collect the student loans “often with no intention of turning up”. Abedi was given at least £7,000 ($9,000) from the taxpayer-funded Student Loans after beginning a business administration degree at Salford University in October 2015. Thanks to the Telegraph

UFO Sightings in the United States
Arizona Light
Chandler — I spotted this in the sky on May 27, 2017, at 3:50 PM. I was in the backyard and I was looking through my binoculars and I spotted this shiny object and I started to record it. The object was a pretty weird looking thing. It just sitting in the sky and it came from the sun area and it was there for 5 to 10 minutes. Then it just disappeared.
Note: The video reveals that the object moved between the photographer and the tree in the background. The distance of the tree is not known. The witness took a video by fitting his cell phone to his binoculars. Thanks to William Puckett, Director Http://www.UFOsnw.com
California Object
San Ramo — I was notified via email by nest of something in my front yard on May 23, 2017. I had already left for work and was curious what was in my front yard. I proceeded to look at the video and observed the above described thing? This appears to be what some call a Sky fish. Photo is available upon request. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Georgia Orb
LoveJoy— On my way home from work on May 27, 2017, I noticed a light in the sky. It was too late in the morning for there to be any stars still out about 8 am. It started small as I was driving and I noticed that it wasn’t moving and was getting bigger so I pulled over and took a picture.
I had to leave but kept watching and it started getting smaller until it finally vanished about 15 minutes later. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Illinois Light
Edinburg— Pamela Stark reports photographing a visitor on June 1st, 2017,
She states,”Their Back”!! Thanks to Pamela Stark
Ohio Cylinder
Wapakoneta— I was walking with a group of friends in Ohio on May 29, 2017. I like to look in the sky when I walk because it’s something I have always done and it helps me think. I know what a plane looks like and I know what the flying lanterns look like, but what I saw that wasn’t either. I saw it around 9:40 Pm along with my friends. It was a single yellow orb way higher than I have seen a plane or anything in general. It continued in a straight line for a few seconds before it flew higher and higher until it was gone. I know it wasn’t a balloon because it was glowing. I was able to get pictures before it disappeared. I have turned to this community to help me out. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Oklahoma Disc
Bartlesville— My wife, son and I went to eat dinner on May 19, 2017, and when we left the restaurant the sky was a bright orange.
A storm just passed through and my wife and son both took pictures of the sunset. About a week later my son (11) was going through his pictures at lunch and noticed the object in the sky. I asked my wife about her pictures and the object is in her picture also.
Thanks to MUFON CMS
Oregon Object
Merlin — Driving south from Hugo on I-5 to Grants Pass on November 18, 2016, I was taking pictures of blue sky. It had been raining continuously and I caught this UFO on film. This is the last picture in a series of four taken 30 seconds apart. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Texas Disc
San Marcos— We were driving and taking pictures of the beautiful scene and noticed the strange objects there on May 14, 2017.
We were all watching and taking photos just milliseconds apart when it disappeared into thin air. I noticed that the shape of this strange object was a round but flat object. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Virginia Object
Rocky Mount — I was in the back yard of my ranch-style duplex and took a photo of a flying s Image with my DX-4 Quadcopter Drone. Playback of the video that the drone captured shows possibly Sun distorting pixels of a very dark object. Upon closer inspection, I observed an object to right and left, equidistant and height in relation to dark the object. Again, it could be an illusion of light and clouds. Throughout the last 30 seconds of video, the drone pans up three times. During each pan-up, all three objects move and change shape in different ways. When the drone returned, I didn’t know I had captured something interested until it was too late. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Washington Lights
Arlington – The second day I witnessed a pulsating object at near the same time and at the same area of sky as the previous day. The object the second day was moving in a straight line instead of hovering.
The object stayed on path until it vanished over the horizon. Wind was southwest at 1-5 knots. The second day I witnessed a pulsating object at near the same time and at the same area of sky as previous day. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Worldwide UFO Sightings

Oshawa, Ontario — I thought to share another strange image taken on May 13, 2017.
While outside my house in Oshawa, Ontario I thought to experiment and took ten photos on May 13, 2017. Examining all the photos we found something interesting in one of the pictures taken at 4:34 pm, It reveals a strange ‘ long ‘ colorful unknown object. This was not seen with the naked eye. I do wonder what flies undetected from the naked eye. Enjoy another Memorial Day my friend. Paul Shishis

Chateau-Thierry— I tell what I saw Saturday night May 20, /2017, at 22:37. I did not have the reflex to take a picture just to call my husband, who only saw the last luminous sphere. To show you, I took a day photo that I worked on Paint to give you an idea of the size of these luminous spheres. The spheres moved from right to left, west / east. They were almost aligned, when the middle one stood out like a triangle. there a sphere was again visible, very small, which lets me assume that it was very far, it was heading south east, straight in my field of vision. It lasted more between 1.5 to 2 minutes (which seems to me enormous). I felt that they were moving slowly, Thanks to MUFON CMS
India Sphere
New Delhi — It was almost diamond shaped with dark sides reflecting sunlight moving slowly from west towards south east on March 24, 2017.
I was actually observing aircraft coming in to land at Delhi Airport from my balcony. Aircrafts pass at a distance of 3 kilometers away at an altitude of 2,500 feet when I observed this strange object moving slowly around 4,000 feet. It gained altitude slowly and disappeared. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Italy Orb
Mareno Di Piave — I was smoking a cigarette in the garden with my partner on May 25, 2017, looking at the sky. It was the brightest thing you saw in the heavens as the object was very strange doing kind of zigzag.
I was lucky enough to have an areo who spent at least that view near a strong light, and I could at least measure the two speeds of the areo and the alleged light was much faster. From the west at great distance comes an aircraft that I filmed for one minute. After 50 seconds this aircraft is located to the east and vanishes into thin air. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Korea Missile Launch
The attached video is a screen capture on my TV while watching FOX news about the Korean missile launch. You should be able to retrieve the same video from most local news channels. As the missile was launching you can see a black long object flies from the launching missile swerving in a smooth back and forth motion towards the camera and out of view I thought it was strange, but it didn’t look like a bird and was too small to be an aircraft. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Mexico Orb
Quintana Roo — I recently observed what appeared to be a metal object 3 to 5 miles off the coast on May 18, 2017. It was moving in an erratic manner and not like any known aircraft I’d seen. A vivid reflection is what made me notice the tiny object for roughly 60 to 90 seconds before filming the attached video.
I immediately knew it was odd and called to my wife to come and look. Before I could turn the recorder back on it moved upwards and disappeared. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Portugal Orbs
Santo Tirso — I was with a friend walking back to our houses around 11 PM, so we looked up to see fireworks at the time. But when I looked up I saw lots of distanced lights flashing and I’m 100% sure it wasn’t the fireworks since there was no explosions. The amount of flashes in that particular area didn’t feel normal. After a while I saw them moving slowly like flocks of birds. I counted around 10-15 “star-like” objects flashing very quickly. When my friend who witnessed the event went home the lights were still there, moving and blinking. The lights made a cross… The “lights” flew away and dissipated. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Puerto Rico Objects
Barrio Daguao, Naguabo — I was heading to a restaurant on a hill with my parents on May 27, 2017, and took photos toward the coast. I saw the objects when reviewing them on my computer. They were not close to an airplane or birds since they looked aligned in formation.
In one photo, there is a boomerang form and an egg-like object on top of it. I felt surprised when looking because a casual trip photo can turn into amazing evidence. They were static or moved very fast. Thanks to MUFON CMS
UK/England Light and Rectangles
I was looking out my window at about 10 pm on February 7, 2017, when I saw a circle shaped object in the sky with no trail of smoke. It wasn’t a plane, but it wasn’t flashing lights. I could just see one small light in the sky, so I took a picture and zoomed in on it.
Then I got a screenshot of a close up view and I saw like little black things walking. At that moment I thought it was a UFO because I think there aliens in the strange shaped object. I was watching it for about four minutes then it just disappeared. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Devon England — John Mooner Ufologist and chief investigator for worldufophotos.org and an investigator for B.E.A.M.S. reports
“I was at the Teign Estuary taking photographs of passing planes when I spotted what at first I thought was a passenger plane.” I started to zoom in with my Nikon P900 only to be shocked by what I saw on 24 May 2017, at 5:15 PM. This object is very unconventional with two white connected rectangular sections with two protruding transparent square flaps. There was one flap on the top and one flap on the bottom. There were also two separate contrails that where left by this strange object. This is totally bizarre and I photographed the same bizarre object over the Teign Estuary back on the 10th of April 2017, leaving a long contrail.
Note: According to NASA, “Contrails are human-induced clouds that usually form at very high altitudes (usually above 8 km – about 26,000 feet) where the air is extremely cold (less than -40ºC). Because of this, contrails form not when an airplane is taking off or landing, but while it is at cruise altitude.” The plume ejected from the object must have been some kind of gas or energy, and was not something tangible like water.

The massive 16 Psyche asteroid is not only an interesting piece of rock, but the minerals she’s made up of are literally worth quadrillions of dollars. Being wildly fascinating and extremely rich does have its perks, and NASA is definitely courting her.
Earlier this year, NASA confirmed a mission to 16 Psyche. About a month ago, they bumped up their timeline, and now the mission seems to be ahead of schedule. The launch of the Psyche robotic spacecraft will occur in 2022. Employing a fancy sling shot maneuver using the gravity of Earth and Mars, the spacecraft will reach the asteroid by 2026.
The reason for NASA’s interest in this asteroid is that it is comprised totally of nickel and iron, the same metals which make up the Earth’s core. The working theory is that 16 Psyche is actually the core of a long dead planet, which was roughly the same size as Mars, but was ripped apart due to massive collisions billions of years ago. While NASA views this as an opportunity to view a planetary core, similar to that of our own ‘terra firma‘, the niggling reality of a corpse planet serves as a cold reminder to an unfriendly cosmos.
The current theory as to how 16 Psyche may have been formed.
(Image: Arizona State University)
Only slightly less interesting is that the asteroid has an estimated value of $10,000 quadrillion American dollars. The nickel and iron content of 16 Pysche is enough to crash the Earth’s entire economic system. The current gross world product (GWP) is only about $74 trillion, so humanity can only hope 16 Psyche gives change.
Lindy Elkins-Tanton, the lead scientist on the NASA mission and the director of Arizona State University’s School of Earth and Space Exploration, stated in an interview that,
Even if we could grab a big metal piece and drag it back here … what would you do? Could you kind of sit on it and hide it and control the global resource — kind of like diamonds are controlled corporately — and protect your market? What if you decided you were going to bring it back and you were just going to solve the metal resource problems of humankind for all time? This is wild speculation obviously.
The technology required to drag a 200 kilometre wide metal asteroid from its current orbit, and bring it back to Earth, is still quite a ways away. The Psyche mission is purely to observe the asteroid, and not to begin mining operations. The spacecraft will send data back to Earth which should help scientists here better understand how planets form, as well as how and why planets, such as Earth, separate into layers that make up the core, mantle and crust.
In addition to learning more about Earth, the NASA team also believes that asteroids such as 16 Psyche could provide possible life lines in space. New research suggests that this asteroid could be full of water. As humans endeavour deeper into space, similar asteroids could be used as sources of water. Elkins-Tanton notes,
That water can be used to make rocket fuel or be drunk by people, so then we’d have a resource stop that has metal and water.
While this is all still speculative, by 2026, NASA will get a close up view of 16 Psyche. Perhaps the intimate knowledge of a dead planet will remind humanity that its current squabbling over politics, religions, and resources are meaningless to the cosmos.
Exoplanet HD 131399 Ab turns out to be a background star, new study finds
Exoplanet HD 131399 Ab turns out to be a background star, new study finds
by Tomasz Nowakowski
(Phys.org)—A new study conducted by an international team of astronomers suggests that a recently discovered alien world, designated HD 131399 Ab, may not be a planet at all, but rather a background star. The researchers presented evidence supporting their hypothesis in a paper published online May 19 on the arXiv pre-print repository.
HD 131399 Ab was discovered in July 2016 using the SPHERE imager of the Very Large Telescope at the European Southern Observatory (ESO) in Chile. Located some 316 light years away from the Earth, the object was initially classified as an exoplanet orbiting its parent star HD 131399 A every 550 years at a distance of about 80 AU from the host. The star is part of the triple system HD 131399 in the constellation Centaurus.
A reanalysis of the available data from SPHERE, as well as new photometric and spectroscopic observations carried out with the use of two other instruments, has led the researchers to call into question our current knowledge about HD 131399 Ab. The team led by Eric Nielsen of the SETI Institute, reinvestigated this object using the Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) installed on the Gemini South Telescope in Chile, the NIRC2 near-infrared imager mounted on the Keck II telescope in Hawaii and also the SPHERE instrument to derive colors, spectra, and astrometry for HD 131399 Ab.
"The analysis of the data reveals unexpected spectroscopic and astrometric results that motivated the reanalysis of some of the already published data obtained with VLT/SPHERE," the astronomers wrote in the paper.
After its detection, HD 131399 Ab was classified as a young and massive planet. The astronomers discovered that HD 131399 Ab is about 16 million years old and has the mass of approximately four Jupiter masses. The new study, based on the data collected in 2017, presents the hypothesis that the object is a K or M dwarf star.
By analyzing the escape velocity of HD 131399 Ab, the researchers ruled out the possibility that the object is a bound planet. According to the authors of the paper, the probability that HD 131399 Ab is a background object is about 43,000 times greater than the probability that it is a bound planet.
The team also excluded other hypotheses such as the possibility that HD 131399 Ab is a planet or a planetary-mass object in the process of ejection from the system.
"We note this is very unlikely a priori, since the chance of observing a 16 Myr star just as it is ejecting its planet is very low," the researchers wrote.
According to the team, the most plausible hypothesis is that HD 131399 Ab is a background star. They found that spectra and magnitudes of the object obtained by GPI and the revised data from SPHERE are mostly consistent with a K or a M dwarf, the most probable candidates for a background object.
"When compared to predicted background objects drawn from a galactic model, we find this proper motion to be high, but consistent with the top 4 percent fastest-moving background stars. From our analysis, we conclude that HD 131399 Ab is a background K or M dwarf," the authors concluded.
Evidence that the Directly-Imaged Planet HD 131399 Ab is a Background Star, arXiv:1705.06851 [astro-ph.EP] arxiv.org/abs/1705.06851
Abstract We present evidence that the recently discovered, directly-imaged planet HD 131399 Ab is a background star with non-zero proper motion. From new JHK1L' photometry and spectroscopy obtained with the Gemini Planet Imager, VLT/SPHERE, and Keck/NIRC2, and a reanalysis of the discovery data obtained with VLT/SPHERE, we derive colors, spectra, and astrometry for HD 131399 Ab. The broader wavelength coverage and higher data quality allow us to re-investigate its status. Its near-infrared spectral energy distribution excludes spectral types later than L0 and is consistent with a K or M dwarf, which are the most likely candidates for a background object in this direction at the apparent magnitude observed. If it were a physically associated object, the projected velocity of HD 131399 Ab would exceed escape velocity given the mass and distance to HD 131399 A. We show that HD 131399 Ab is also not following the expected track for a stationary background star at infinite distance. Solving for the proper motion and parallax required to explain the relative motion of HD 131399 Ab, we find a proper motion of 12.3 mas/yr. When compared to predicted background objects drawn from a galactic model, we find this proper motion to be high, but consistent with the top 4% fastest-moving background stars. From our analysis we conclude that HD 131399 Ab is a background K or M dwarf.
Mars Rovers, Spirit and Opportunity, land on opposite sides of Mars and begin exploring the planet. Since their landing, the rovers have sent more than 100,000 high-resolution, full-color images of the planet's surface.

The new manned version of Mars rovers has been revealed and is likely to be launched by NASA in 2020. Hollywood movies like Tron inspired the researchers to make this new generation of rovers.
The duo, Shanon and Marc Parker, created these rovers in a span of less than five months. The new type of manned Mars rovers will be around 11-feet tall, 13-feet wide and 24-feet long, and will six wheels and an alien design, a report by Pulse Headlines revealed.
The new rovers were built by the Parker brothers from scratch. It is like an SUV which consists of a mock lab where the astronauts can conduct their experiments. The new design of the manned rovers will be revealed soon by NASA.
The inSight (Interior Exploration using Seismic Investigations, Geodesy and Heat Transport) mission is scheduled to be launched on May 5, 2018. It will arrive on the Red Planet on November 28, 2018, and transmit the newly-collected data regarding the emergence of Mars and how it developed over time, to Earth.
Astronauts would be sent to deep space farther than Earth's orbit by 2019 with the help of NASA's Space Launch System.
Also, Earth's conditions and disturbing natural calamities taking place in its ecosystem, like earthquake, would be analysed by the researchers using NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar.
Apart from this, other missions are lined up which the space agency will be carrying out in the future like the NASA Asteroid Redirect Mission, which is scheduled to take place in 2021 when a sample will be collected from an asteroid.
The agency also plans to carry out the Psyche mission by 2022, in which the unique, metallic asteroid -- Psyche -- which orbits Sun between Mars and Jupiter will be examined. Researchers believe that this would provide them with more data about how planets are formed, Science World Report revealed.
Fermi's Paradox has produced a myriad of research, endless debates, and some very creative solutions for why we haven't encountered aliens yet. The latest argues that aliens could be hibernating in order to maximize their computational capabilities.
DasWortgewand/Pixabay
MISSING, OR SLEEPING?
During a lunchtime conversation in 1950, Enrico Fermi, the “architect of the nuclear age” who built the world’s first nuclear reactor, posed a question that has resulted in decades of research and hundreds of published papers: “Where is everybody?”
This is the crystallization of the paradox he perceived (now known as the Fermi Paradox) which questions, “If the universe is large enough to have more than sufficient opportunity to create more life than what we see on earth, why haven’t we met that alien life yet?” Scientists, like Anders Sandberg, an Oxford neuroscientist, and Milan Ćirković, part of the Astronomical Observatory of Belgrade, have used this as a jumping-off point in their attempts to debunk — or defend — the possibility of extraterrestrial civilizations.
Sandberg and Ćirković teamed up with Stuart Armstrong, an AI expert at the Future of Humanity institute, to author a new paper arguing that alien life is hibernating. Their “aestivation hypothesis” rests on two premises: advanced societies have transitioned to machine-based life, and machines compute faster in cooler conditions. Therefore, they argue, aliens are hibernating until the universe cools so they can develop at a faster rate.
Sandberg and Ćirković explain on their blog that “as the Universe expands, this background temperature will decline exponentially” and “in principle, running processing becomes 10 times more efficient if your computer is 10 times colder (measured in Kelvins).” Because of this aliens are hibernating and waiting for the universe to cool.
They came up with the possible solution while discussing how to maximize the lifespan of a civilization. The theory developed as part of “eschatology considerations of what the best possible outcome for a civilization would be, not directly an urge to solve the Fermi question. However, it does seem to provide one new possible answer to the question.”
OTHER POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS
Solutions to the Fermi Paradox fall into three categories:
First, that we are alone and there is no alien life. This could either be because aliens never developed or because they have now died off. Aditya Chopra, from the Australian National University, provided a causal explanation for extinction called the “The Gaian Bottleneck.” He believes that while other life has developed, it was too fragile, and humanity is the only species that has proven persistent enough to survive through The Great Filter (the challenges life faces as it develops, codified by Robin Hanson).
Second, that aliens exist but not here, due to limitations in our methods of communication, our technology, or our comprehension. Michio Kaku details this answer in an interview with The Daily Grail using the analogy of an ant and a highway:
Let’s say we have an anthill in the middle of the forest. And right next to the anthill, they’re building a ten-lane super-highway. And the question is “Would the ants be able to understand what a ten-lane super-highway is?
Third, that there are aliens here, but they are not interacting in an obvious manner. Rather than blaming us primitive humans, this solution suggests the extraterrestrials themselves are being ambiguous. This category holds the hibernation hypothesis and could also be the explanation behind the baffling light fluctuations of the star KIC 8462852, which some have argued could be due to alien interference.
Whatever the explanation — if there even is one — it is a fascinating question to try to answer. But perhaps the next question, and one also worth thinking about, is “what happens when we do meet aliens?”
'I saw aliens and Roswell UFO' CIA agent in shock deathbed confession on Area 51
'I saw aliens and Roswell UFO' CIA agent in shock deathbed confession on Area 51
AN ALLEGED former CIA agent and military officer gave a shocking deathbed "confession" in which he claimed to have seen living extraterrestrials and alien space craft secretly stored in the mysterious Area 51 US Air Force base.
His most shocking claim was to have been taken inside Area 51 to see a variety of UFOs allegedly recovered by the US military.
These were said to include a flying saucer said to have crash landed at Roswell, New Mexico, in July 1947.
Area 51 is a heavily guarded US Air Force base deep in the Nevada desert, where tests are carried out on new air craft technology.
But, it is at the centre of many alien conspiracy theories which allege that recovered alien craft that have visited Earth are stored and tested there.
There were alien craft, including the Roswell UFO and live aliens
Alleged former CIA officer
The conspiracy theories were compounded by the fact that the US Government did not acknowledge the base existed until 2013.
Other theories suggest aliens, from the crashed UFOs are secretly kept there as well.
The man says in the video that President Dwight Eisenhower had warned of a threat of Earth being invaded, so he and his superior at the CIA were allowed inside Area 51 to report back to the president.
He claimed the pair were also taken to the alleged S-4 facility southwest of Area 51 where they observed "live extraterrestrials".
Author and UFO researcher Peter Robbins, said of the account: “In my opinion, if it can be confirmed by any relevant supporting documentation, this moving and fascinating account does qualify as an authentic ‘death bed’ testimony from an individual who convincingly claims to have been a CIA officer deeply involved in the matter or crashed and/or recovered craft, and at one time a liaison between the agency and the President (Truman).”
The interview was filmed in 2013, but only released on the Open Minds UFO website, but is being discussed after being shared on other UFO forums.
It is not clear if the man did die soon after the recording.
It comes after a video interview of a new witness to the Roswell crash emerged, as revealed by Express.co.uk.

En entrant les coordonnées 27°34’26.35″ N 19°36’4.75″ W dans l’application Google Moon, vous tomberez sur ce qui semble être une silhouette debout sur la Lune.
Bien que la NASA n’ait pas encore répondu aux questions quant à ce dont il pourrait bien s’agir, des chercheurs d’OVNIs ont suggéré (comme vous pouvez vous y attendre) que la silhouette puisse être celle d’une créature extraterrestre.
Wowforreel a dit s’être penché sur l’affaire après avoir reçu un message de la part d’un internaute du nom de Jakenso.
« Cette ombre à la forme irrégulière qu’il a découverte sur Google Moon ressemble à celle d’un objet, ou d’une créature, se tenant debout, a-t-il expliqué à UFO Sighting Daily.
J’ai d’abord pensé que quelque chose avait été griffonné sur l’image, mais après avoir moi-même visité Google Moon, j’ai pu découvrir que l’ombre est bel et bien là. »
La silhouette ressemble à une ombre projetée par les formations géologiques à la surface de la Lune.
Mais la blogosphère préfère croire en la présence d’extraterrestres voire même d’une statue de la Grèce antique sur la Lune. The Examiner a même demandé à ses lecteurs d’abandonner toute logique avant d’observer la mystérieuse silhouette.
Bien entendu, cette ombre peut s’expliquer de diverses manières, et notamment par un jeu de lumière.
Mais en laissant de côté ces explications, de quoi pourrait-il bien s’agir ? Il semblerait en effet que l’objet en question se tienne debout et surplombe de quelque distance la surface de la Lune.
Et ce n’est pas là la seule image qui existe d’une présence mystérieuse sur la Lune. Des chercheurs ont découvert toutes sortes d’objets sur le satellite naturel de la Terre, et le suivant pourrait faire froncer bien des sourcils, parce qu’il pourrait potentiellement s’agir d’une base lunaire ou d’un vaisseau non-identifié.
En voici l’image :
« Est-ce simplement un cratère à la forme étrange ? Ou s’agit-il d’autre chose ?, a-t-il demandé.
Si l’objet est bel et bien là, alors je n’ai aucune idée de ce dont il s’agit. Je n’ai rien trouvé de semblable sur les images d’autres cratères. »
Selon le site web Tech and Gadget News : « Cette gigantesque forme semble être le côté d’un vaisseau spatial triangulaire, similaire à un avion furtif, bien qu’il soit bien plus gros que n’importe quel avion jamais construit sur Terre.
Les formes régulières et circulaires visibles sur le triangle parfait semblent intelligemment conçues. »
Plus intéressant encore, la structure ressemble de très près au phénomène des Lumières de Phoenix observé par des milliers de personnes le 13 mars 1997 :
Et au Texas en 2008 :
La silhouette de la première image pourrait-elle être celle d’un habitant du vaisseau des Lumières de Phoenix ?
Ou ne s’agit-il que d’un simple rocher qui a été photographié au bon moment et se trouve ressembler à un humanoïde ?
Est-il possible qu’il ne s’agisse ni d’un extraterrestre ni d’un rocher, mais d’un programme spatial secret dans le cadre duquel des vaisseaux et des opérateurs humains ont été déployés sur la Lune ?
Il pourrait s’agir de quelque chose. Ou de rien du tout. A vous d’en juger.
BUITENAARDSE INVASIE ENGELSE WESTKUST LIJKT WERKELIJK BEGONNEN? ( VIDEO )
BUITENAARDSE INVASIE ENGELSE WESTKUST LIJKT WERKELIJK BEGONNEN? ( VIDEO )
Enkele weken geleden schreven wij in een artikel over de mogelijke makers van de graancirkels in Engeland en dat een grote krant zich afvroeg of de buitenaardse invasie in zuidwest Engeland was begonnen.
Misschien zitten ze daar op een bepaalde manier helemaal niet zo gek ver naast, want sinds dat bericht zijn de bizarre toestanden in dat gebied alleen maar toegenomen.
Het gaat dan over de zuidwesthoek van Engeland en waar we iedere keer de bekende namen tegenkomen zoals het graafschap Wiltshire, maar waar de absolute hotspot in dat gebied de stad Bristol is.
Ongeveer een week geleden werd er door de Engelse Daily Mail veel aandacht besteed aan een opname die was gemaakt door Mike Westlake uit Bristol.
Boven de huizen is duidelijk een formatie te zien van wat lijkt op drie UFO’s. Het gaat hierbij om de volgende opname.
.
Als gevolg hiervan wordt er natuurlijk weer druk gespeculeerd en de Thaise ballonnen en andere varianten zijn dan ook niet van de lucht. Het mainstream publiek in Engeland doet haar uiterste best om een "rationele verklaring" voor deze lichten te vinden.
De opname op zich is echt, daarover bestaat geen twijfel, maar wel over wat die lichten nu precies zijn.
Dan, net als iedereen weer net een beetje in slaap is gesukkeld, duiken er via een Amerikaanse website nieuwe beelden op van wat dezelfde UFO’s lijken.
De bovenstaande opname is gemaakt op 23 mei 2017 in Bristol rond half tien in de avond. Het is echter niet helemaal duidelijk wanneer de andere opname van Mike Westlake is gemaakt. In ieder geval ergens rond dezelfde datum en ook daar lijkt het op een tijdstip te zijn dat het begint te schemeren.
Pal daarop komt ook de Bristol Post met een derde, hele korte video, waarop waarschijnlijk dezelfde formatie te zien is.
Al met al drie verschillende video's en de beelden die teveel op elkaar lijken om toeval te kunnen zijn en bovendien zijn alle opnames gemaakt in dezelfde stad rond dezelfde tijd.
Eind september vorig jaar schreven wij kort over een Engelse politiehelikopter die een UFO filmde vlak bij diezelfde stad Bristol.
Een Engelse politiehelikopter vliegt enkele dagen geleden boven het Bristol Channel wanneer hun infraroodcamera een rond object waarneemt.
Het voorval vond plaats afgelopen zaterdagavond rond half tien en het object vloog op een hoogte van ongeveer 300 meter (heel laag dus).
Ze dachten in eerste instantie te maken te hebben met een soort Thaise lampion, maar bedachten later dat dit niet mogelijk was omdat het object tegen de wind in bewoog.
De bemanning heeft geen enkel idee waar ze mee te maken hadden en hebben het object 7 minuten lang kunnen volgen. Ze hebben geprobeerd over te schakelen naar een daglicht-camera, maar daar was niets op te zien.
Het object was er wel degelijk omdat het hitte afgaf en daardoor werd geregistreerd door de infraroodcamera.
Wie het uitgebreidere verhaal van deze waarneming wil lezen, kan dat hier doen en er zijn inmiddels ook bewegende beelden van de politiecamera in de helikopter.
Begin dit jaar begonnen al de eerste beschuldigingen te verschijnen in de Engelse pers over een mogelijke cover-up van dit incident en eisten UFO onderzoekers dat er eindelijk openheid van zaken wordt gegeven.
Wanneer je al het bovenstaande bekijkt en je bedenkt daarbij ook nog eens dat dit allemaal toevallig gebeurt in een gebied waar ieder jaar heel veel graancirkels verschijnen, dan zou een logisch denkend mens zeggen dat er eindelijk een verklaring is voor wie die graancirkels maken.
Nu alleen er nog achter komen wie of wat die UFO’s onder controle heeft.
NIKOLA TESLA'S TIME TRAVEL EXPERIENCE: 'I COULD SEE THE PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE ALL AT THE SAME TIME'
NIKOLA TESLA'S TIME TRAVEL EXPERIENCE: 'I COULD SEE THE PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE ALL AT THE SAME TIME'
Nikola Tesla was conducting research in 1895 and this was when he got the first indication that space and time might be influenced by using a highly magnetic field.
TESLA MADE DISCOVERIES BEFORE TOP-SECRET MILITARY PROGRAMS
A part of the admission had come from Tesla experimenting with radio frequencies along with power transmission through the Earth’s atmosphere. The discovery would many years later lead to the Philadelphia experiment along with time travel programs. However, a long time before the top-secret military programs were even thought about Tesla had already made some discoveries that were fascinating in regards to nature of time and the possibilities of being able to travel through time.
The experiments of Tesla in high voltage electricity along with magnetic fields led to him discovering that time and space may be deformed to essentially create a door that may lead to another time. With the discovery, Tesla then went on to discover, through his own personal experiences, that traveling through time came with some real dangers.
TESLA WAS SAID TO BE HIT BY 3.5 MILLION VOLTS OF ELECTRICITY
The very first experience that Tesla had with traveling in time occurred in March 1895. A New York Herald reporter wrote that he found the inventor sitting in a café after he had just been hit by 3.5 million volts of electricity. The reporter said that Tesla had told him that he would not be very pleasant company to be around due to the fact that he had almost died. He went on to say that a three-foot spark had jumped into the air and hit him on the shoulder. Tesla went on to tell the reporter that if it had not been for his assistant turning the power off straight away he would have been killed.
Tesla went on to tell the reporter that when he was in contact with the resonance from the electromagnetic charge he had found that he went out of his space and time window. He said that he had been able to see the past, the present and the future at the very same time. He admitted that he had been paralyzed in the electromagnetic field and so he had been unable to help himself. Thankfully his assistant had been beside him and had been able to turn off the power before any severe and permanent damage had been done.
INCIDENT SAID TO BE REPEATED IN PHILADELPHIA EXPERIMENT BY US NAVY
Many years later the repetition of the exact same incident occurred during the Philadelphia Experiment. However, this led to sailors being left outside of the window space reference for a long time and this, of course, had results that were disastrous.
The Philadelphia Experiment was the alleged military experiment which was said to have been carried out by the US Navy in 1943. It was said that the escort the USS Eldridge had become invisible to enemies. However, the US Navy has always said that no such experiment happened and the claims of the ship becoming invisible did not conform to physical laws.
PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR CLAIMS TO HAVE PHYSICAL EVIDENCE OF INTELLIGENT EXTRATERRESTRIAL BEINGS
PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR CLAIMS TO HAVE PHYSICAL EVIDENCE OF INTELLIGENT EXTRATERRESTRIAL BEINGS
With NASA almost being in the backyard of Houston it is no surprise that it has earned the nickname of Space City. Now a man is taking that name to higher levels as Derrel Sims, known as the Alien Hunter, says that he has physical evidence that comes from outer space.
Sims is a private investigator and claims to have been a G-Man who used his skills for understanding alien abductions. He said that he comes from an intelligence background and has worked for the CIA during secret operations.
Sims claims there are 1,950 cases around the globe and said that there was one instance where a lady came back after being abducted with an implant in her eye and that implant fell out of her eye and onto a desk in front of her boss. The woman’s boss collected the implant and gave it to Sims, who still has it today.
SIMS CLAIMS TO HAVE BEEN VISITED BY ALIENS REGULARLY
Sims interest in aliens began when an alien supposedly visited him when he was a child and continued to do so up to Sims reaching the age of 17. He did say that the majority of recollections of aliens along with UFO sightings are theoretical and due to this he collects physical evidence and then examines it, from those who claim that they have had a genuine alien encounter.
He said that if the people were being abducted by aliens there would be ET traces found on the people through infrared technology. Sims said that he detects the temperature on the skin and there is a residue that comes from other planets that is also detectable.
UNEXPLAINED BUMPS, CUTS AND SCARS MAY BE SIGNS OF ALIEN TRANSPLANTS
Sims went on to say that an alien entity often leave bumps, lumps, scars and cuts on those who have been abducted and he went on to say that physical evidence that has been recovered often suggests that aliens could be biological and they may have a level of metallic in their biology.
He then showed some spheres which he claims to have come from a young girl who, when she sneezed, blew them out, following an alien visiting her and spraying something up her nostrils.
While you might have laughed at the antics of the crew in Ghostbusters, hunting down ghosts and capturing them, Sims seem to be the real life Ghostbuster, but this time it’s not ghosts but aliens that he is hunting down and capturing proof of.

NASA'S MARS RECONNAISSANCE ORBITER SPOTTED A STRANGE GIGANTIC HOLE ON MARS
NASA'S MARS RECONNAISSANCE ORBITER SPOTTED A STRANGE GIGANTIC HOLE ON MARS
The Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter of NASA has been scanning the surface of Mars for 11 years and it might have been a good assumption in thinking that it would have seen everything there is to see. However, a photograph that was taken recently over the South Pole of the planet has revealed something that even NASA cannot explain.
HUGE PIT SEEN ON TERRAIN OF MARS
The whole surface of Mars has many craters and depressions but a huge pit has been seen nestling amongst the terrain that looks like Swiss cheese, of frozen carbon dioxide that is melting and which seems to be deeper than the average hole, which has left astronomers trying to work out what it is.
There may be many things that might make holes in the rocky terrain of Mars. Craters have been caused by half a million meteorite impacts; deep pits have come from lava tubes that have collapsed, while giant chasms have been created from the surface by ancient floods and funnels left when volcanic activity has melted ice.
ANTARCTICA & ATLANTIS : THE SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE OF THE CATACLYSM AND THE SURVIVORS OF ATLANTIS
ANTARCTICA & ATLANTIS : THE SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE OF THE CATACLYSM AND THE SURVIVORS OF ATLANTIS
The latest discoveries on the great pyramid of Khufu, which made it possible to confirm in an extraordinary way the authenticity of the message conveyed by the builders, that the Antarctic continent was the famous Atlantis and was about 12000 years more in the North, close to the African continent, and after a great cataclysm, the continent slip towards the south pole.
This testimony corresponds exactly to the theory of Charles Hapgood and supported by Albert Einstein, who succeeded in giving Charles Hapgood a scientific explanation for this very violent phenomenon.
Even if some geological evidence and the discovery of old navigation maps come to confirm this theory, this one met a strong opposition of the scientific since according to them the Antarctic is covered with ice for several millions of years.
Hundreds of comments explaining that our theory is extraordinary but that, unfortunately, it is scientifically impossible since no plant life and still less a civilization can survive on a continent covered with ice for millions of years. A little tired of hearing the same objection, we decided to carry out research to find out how deep these traces of vegetation were discovered and how they estimated their date because they contradict the message of the Batisseurs, We are certain of its authenticity.
What we found was amazing and exceeded all expectations. They definitively erase the false ideas we have been invariably and continually broadcast on the Antarctic and its climate.
Thanks to authentic documents and excerpts from scientific team videos that have worked in Antarctica, we will show you the scientific evidence that this continent has been the victim of an extraordinary catastrophe which has decimated all its vegetation and probably, as we Suppose, the civilization that inhabited it ...
A FAMOUS ASTRONOMER SPOTS 2 UFOS IN THE SKY THAT LEFT HIM BAFFLED FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 40 YEARS
A FAMOUS ASTRONOMER SPOTS 2 UFOS IN THE SKY THAT LEFT HIM BAFFLED FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 40 YEARS
Roberto Antezana is a level headed and famous astrophysicist in Chile, and generally, he is able to explain everything that he sees. However, he has now talked about something that he saw on May 31, 2017, which has baffled him and this was two mysterious spots that appeared in his telescope flying discontinuously.
Roberto lives in Santiago de Chile, and he makes some amazing photos of phenomena that he has captured in the sky, which he has taken from the tops of the mountains which surround his city.
SIGHTING LEAVES ASTROPHYSICIST BAFFLED
On May 31, 2017, he revealed his first experience of a strange phenomenon that he saw in the sky. Roberto has seen many thousands of phenomena during his 40 years in observing deserts, mountains, and observatories all around the globe. On May 31 he saw the only thing that he has not been able to explain and which has left him totally baffled.
He said that he saw a mysterious object that was moving West to East and it was moving at speeds that differed. He said that it would accelerate and then slow down and it did this at least twice while he was watching. Roberto went on to say that at zenith it has stopped for five minutes and then it began accelerating to the East once again. Roberto said that he watched the strange object for around 35 minutes in total.
ROBERTO DOES NOT THINK IT WAS THE QZS-2 SATELLITE FROM JAPAN
Roberto said that he had seen two of the bright spots inside a nebula that was misty, which had been created by the weird artifact. Some people suggested that what he had witnessed was the launch of the QZS-2 satellite from Japan that was released at 00: 17 UTC. To this Roberto asks if a rocket would be able to cover half of the planet in only 43 minutes. He also questioned the fact that satellites would not be able to accelerate and then stop and then produce two queues similar to comets.
Roberto does not think that it was the satellite that he saw as it would not move at speeds that differed, accelerate and then slow down, twice, while he was watching and even stop dead in the sky hovering for around five minutes before then heading to the East again accelerating. It also would not have been there in front of him to observe for about 35 minutes. But if not the satellite, then what was it? This is something that Roberto has not been able to work out.

TOP SECRET: HAS THE ROSWELL MYSTERY FINALLY BEEN "SOLVED"?
TOP SECRET: HAS THE ROSWELL MYSTERY FINALLY BEEN "SOLVED"?
According to shock claims, the famous Roswell incident is not as we thought it was. Was the crashed UFO of extraterrestrial origin? Were the dead bodies that of alien beings? The answer could be no.
According to the new book by British UFO hunter Nick Redfern, in an interview that he had with an elderly woman working in Oak Ridge National Laboratory. She said that after World War 2 the US military began experimenting with new technology brought from both Japan and Germany.
They used human guinea pigs to experiment out a new kind of aircraft to test the rigors of high altitude exposure. These human test subjects were Japanese, handicapped people and other prisoners.
The strange symbols found in some of the debris that UFO researchers thought to be Alien hieroglyphics could have been simply Japanese characters.
µCould this mean that the bodies retrieved from the wreckage were human and not extraterrestrial?

Former Governor of Arizona: 'Aliens came to my state in UFO during Phoenix Lights’
Former Governor of Arizona: 'Aliens came to my state in UFO during Phoenix Lights’
A FORMER Governor of Arizona has spoken out about the night of the Phoenix Lights Incident 20 years after the mass UFO sighting, claiming he too saw aliens.
Never before seen footage of Fife Symington, 71, who was governor of Arizona from 1990 to 1998, reveals he was a witness to one of the world's biggest ever mass UFO sightings, and he believes it was extraterrestrial.
The Phoenix Lights incident remains one of the world's most perplexing mass UFO sightings on record, and still causes intrigue among the alien research community, even though many sceptics claim to have debunked the case.
It became a phenomenon in March 13 1997 when thousands of people reported seeing huge triangular UFOs drifting over Arizona and the city of Phoenix.
The size of them varied from a Boeing 747 to multiple football fields.
Mr Symignton made the confession during an interview with UFO investigator James Fox in 2006.
But now Mr Fox has released never before seen footage from the interview to coincide with it being the twentieth anniversary year.
MUFON*YouTube
The former governor believes the lights were of alien origins.
"The second event was the launch of military flares over Estrella mountains."
Referring to triangle UFOs generally, he added: “About other similar sightings I'd like to see some reports by MUFON, however many formation of sky lanterns or the launch of skydivers.
"Golden Knights were often mistaken for UFOs.”
Last month Hollywood legend Kurt Russell revealed on the BBC One Show that he had seen the Phoenix Lights as he landed at an airport on the night of the incident.

NASA's Juno Spacecraft Just Shattered What We Knew About Jupiter
NASA's Juno Spacecraft Just Shattered What We Knew About Jupiter
The gas giant is getting really weird.
GEMMA CONROY
Just when we thought we had Jupiter all figured out, NASA's Juno spacecraft reveals new results that challenge almost every assumption we've made about the gas giant.
The discoveries were made when the basketball court-sized spacecraft swooped within 5,000 kilometres (3,106 miles) of the cloud tops, and drifted over the planet's poles.
"What we've learned so far is Earth-shattering. Or should I say, Jupiter-shattering," said Juno's principal investigator at the South Research Institute, Scott Bolton. "Discoveries about its composition, magnetosphere, and poles are as stunning as the photographs the mission is generating."
After its arduous five-year journey from Earth, Juno finally locked into Jupiter's orbit in July 2016 to catch a closer glimpse at what lies within the planet's swirling clouds.
The probe captured some mind-blowing first images of Jupiter's giant oval-shaped storms around the north and south poles. It also recorded some eerie sounds when it careened into the planet's enormous magnetosphere, which contracts and expands according to solar wind movements.
But the spacecraft didn't travel 2.8 billion kilometres into space to take pretty picturesand record weird noises. Juno's real mission has been to create a detailed map of the gas giant, which will help scientists learn more about how our Solar System's planets, including Earth, formed around 4.5 billion years ago.
The probe also collected data on Jupiter's inner structure, atmosphere and magnetic field with its eight instruments.
The first study, led by Bolton, describes the massive storms and cyclones clustered around Jupiter's previously unseen poles. The images revealed chaotic oval-shaped features that are completely different from Saturn's polar regions.
When the researchers created a time-lapse of the images, they discovered that these swirling ovals were gigantic cyclones.
Some of these mammoth cyclones reached up to 1,400 kilometres (900 miles) wide - 10 times larger than Earth's biggest cyclones. The storms also reached close to 100 kilometres high - up out of Jupiter's atmosphere.
But the real surprise came from beneath the clouds, when Juno measured the thermal structure of the Jovian atmosphere.
When the probe beamed microwaves into the deep atmosphere, the data showed signs of strange ammonia plumes welling up from the equator, forming giant weather systems that extend well beneath the cloud tops.
"It resembles a deeper, wider version of the air currents that rise from Earth's equator and generate the trade winds," said Bolton.
Things got even weirder in the second study, when Juno took a closer look at Jupiter's magnetic field - the largest object in the Solar System.
While researchers were well aware of the power and enormity of Jupiter's magnetic field, they were surprised to find that it was twice as strong as the models predicted.
Measuring at 7.766 Gauss, the region the spacecraft examined was 10 times more powerful than Earth's magnetic field, which sits at a mere 0.66 Gauss at the South Pole.
The magnetic field is also more dynamic than previously thought, with an uneven, patchy distribution.
Speaking to ScienceAlert, Juno's deputy lead investigator, Jack Connerney, said that the planet's lumpy magnetic field indicates that it may originate from processes close to the planet's surface.
This is vastly different to Earth's magnetic field, which is stemmed from the hot liquid iron core deep below the crust.
"The magnetic field appears to have a much richer spatial variation than what we were expecting based on what previous spacecraft had found," Connerney, who led the second study, told ScienceAlert.
"The most exciting thing about studying Jupiter is that, compared to Earth, we get a more detailed view of how magnetic fields work."
Taking a closer look at the magnetosphere - the space around a planet that is controlled by the magnetic field - revealed yet another surprise.
When Juno passed through the magnetosphere in June 2016, it encountered the planet's bow shock - a shock wave that occurs when the magnetic field begins redirecting the solar winds away.
But the probe only passed through one bow shock compared to the many it encountered on other orbits. Connerney said that this is because Jupiter's magnetosphere was expanding at the time of Juno's approach.
"The bow shock varies in its distance from Jupiter, expanding when the solar wind is weak or slow, and contracting when the solar wind is strong," said Connerney.
Stranger still were Jupiter's stunning violet-blue aurorae, which were detected by Juno when it hovered over the poles.
J.E.P. Connerney et al., Science (2017)
On Earth, the Northern and Southern lights occur when charged particles from the solar wind are funnelled down through the magnetosphere into the polar regions.
Connerney and his colleagues thought Jupiter's light-show was due to a similar downward flow of electrons pouring into the Jovian atmosphere.
But Juno's instruments revealed a whole other story. The Jovian aurorae are powered by the electrons being sucked out of the planet's polar region, which basically means that Jupiter powers its light-show all on its own.
"It's a 180-degree reversal of what we were originally assuming," Connerney told ScienceAlert. "We never expected to see such strong auroral emissions caused by electrons being channelled out of the polar region."
And all of this is just the beginning. Juno has completed 5 out of 33 flyby investigations on its mission to map the giant of the Solar System.
Its next flyby will take a look at the iconic Great Red Spot on July 11, where it will unravel more of the planet's weird wonders.
The two studies were published today in a special edition of Science. You can find them here and here.
Only a little more than 10 light-years away is a glimpse into the past of our solar system. The nearby star system resembles an approximation of what our solar system may have looked like in its early development.
Astronomers are understandably fascinated with the Epsilon Eridani system. For one, this star system is in close proximity to our own, at a distance of about 10.5 light-years from the Solar System. Second, it has been known for some time that it contains two asteroid belts and a large debris disk. And third, astronomers have suspected for many years that this star may also have a system of planets.
On top of all that, a new study by a team of astronomers has indicated that Epsilon Eridani may be what our own Solar System was like during its younger days. Relying on NASA’s Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) aircraft, the team conducted a detailed analysis of the system that showed how it has an architecture remarkably similar to what astronomer believe the Solar System once looked like.
Led by Kate Su – an Associate Astronomer with the Steward Observatory at the University of Arizona – the team includes researchers and astronomers from the Department of Physics & Astronomy of Iowa State University, the Astrophysical Institute and University Observatory at the University of Jena (Germany), and NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory and Ames Research Center.
For the sake of their study – the results of which were published in The Astronomical Journal under the title “The Inner 25 AU Debris Distribution in the Epsilon Eri System” – the team relied on data obtained by a flight of SOFIA in January 2015. Combined with detailed computer modeling and research that went on for years, they were able to make new determinations about the structure of the debris disk.
As already noted, previous studies of Epsilon Eridani indicated that the system is surrounded by rings made up of materials that are basically leftovers from the process of planetary formation. Such rings consist of gas and dust, and are believed to contain many small rocky and icy bodies as well — like the Solar System’s own Kuiper Belt, which orbits our Sun beyond Neptune.
Careful measurements of the disk’s motion has also indicated that a planet with nearly the same mass as Jupiter circles the star at a distance comparable to Jupiter’s distance from the Sun. However, based on prior data obtained by the NASA’s Spitzer Space Telescope, scientists were unable to determine the position of warm material within the disk — i.e. the dust and gas — which gave rise to two models.
In one, warm material is concentrated into two narrow rings of debris that orbit the star at distances corresponding respectively to the Main Asteroid Belt and Uranus in our Solar System. According to this model, the largest planet in the system would likely be associated with an adjacent debris belt. In the other, warm material is in a broad disk, is not concentrated into asteroid belt-like rings, and is not associated with any planets in the inner region.
Using the new SOFIA images, Su and her team were able to determine that the warm material around Epsilon Eridani is arranged like the first model suggests. In essence, it is in at least one narrow belt, rather than in a broad continuous disk. As Su explained in a NASA press release:
“The high spatial resolution of SOFIA combined with the unique wavelength coverage and impressive dynamic range of the FORCAST camera allowed us to resolve the warm emission around eps Eri, confirming the model that located the warm material near the Jovian planet’s orbit. Furthermore, a planetary mass object is needed to stop the sheet of dust from the outer zone, similar to Neptune’s role in our solar system. It really is impressive how eps Eri, a much younger version of our solar system, is put together like ours.”
These observations were made possible thanks to SOFIA’s on-board telescopes, which have a greater diameter than Spitzer – 2.5 meters (100 inches) compared to Spitzer’s 0.85 m (33.5 inches). This allowed for far greater resolution, which the team used to discern details within the Epsilon Eridani system that were three times smaller than what had been observed using the Spitzer data.
In addition, the team made use of SOFIA’s powerful mid-infrared camera – the Faint Object infraRed CAmera for the SOFIA Telescope (FORCAST). This instrument allowed the team to study the strongest infrared emissions coming from the warm material around the star which are otherwise undetectable by ground-based observatories – at wavelengths between 25-40 microns.
These observations further indicate that the Epsilon Eridani system is much like our own, albeit in younger form. In addition to having asteroid belts and a debris disk that is similar to our Main Belt and Kuiper Belt, it appears that it likely has more planets waiting to be found within the spaces between. As such, the study of this system could help astronomers to learn things about the history of our own Solar System.
Massimo Marengo, one of he co-authors of the study, is an Associate Professor with the Department of Physics & Astronomy at Iowa State University. As he explained in a University of Iowa press release:
“This star hosts a planetary system currently undergoing the same cataclysmic processes that happened to the solar system in its youth, at the time in which the moon gained most of its craters, Earth acquired the water in its oceans, and the conditions favorable for life on our planet were set.”
At the moment, more studies will need to be conducted on this neighboring stars system in order to learn more about its structure and confirm the existence of more planets. And it is expected that the deployment of next-generation instruments – like the James Webb Space Telescope, scheduled for launch in October of 2018 – will be extremely helpful in that regard.
“The prize at the end of this road is to understand the true structure of Epsilon Eridani’s out-of-this-world disk, and its interactions with the cohort of planets likely inhabiting its system,” Marengo wrote in a newsletter about the project. “SOFIA, by its unique ability of capturing infrared light in the dry stratospheric sky, is the closest we have to a time machine, revealing a glimpse of Earth’s ancient past by observing the present of a nearby young sun.”
