Scientists Hit Cosmic Jackpot with Discovery of 300,000 Distant Galaxies

"LOFAR has a remarkable sensitivity, and that allows us to see that these jets are present in all of the most massive galaxies, which means that their black holes never stop eating," team member Philip Best, of the University of Edinburgh in Scotland, said in a statement.

"With LOFAR, we hope to answer the fascinating question: 'Where do those black holes come from?'" team member Huub Röttgering, of Leiden University in the Netherlands, said in the same statement.

The newly reported observations — which were published online last Tuesday (Feb. 19) in 26 papers in a special issue of the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics— also provide a window on galaxy-cluster mergers. These dramatic collisions accelerate deep-space particles to tremendous speeds, which create swaths of radio emission that can span millions of light-years.

But this doesn't tell the whole story, the new results suggest.

"What we are beginning to see with LOFAR is that, in some cases, clusters of galaxies that are not merging can also show this emission, albeit at a very low level that was previously undetectable," team member Annalisa Bonafede, of the University of Bologna and INAF in Italy, said in the same statement. "This discovery tells us that, besides merger events, there are other phenomena that can trigger particle acceleration over huge scales."

The discoveries above should be just the tip of the LOFAR iceberg. The new studies cover only the first 2 percent of the sky survey, LOFAR team members said. When complete, they added, the project should map a total of 15 million cosmic radio sources.

"Just imagine some of the discoveries we may make along the way," ASTRON Director General Carole Jackson said in the same statement. "I certainly look forward to it."

Expert Says Humans Are Aliens – And We Were Brought To Earth Hundreds Of Thousands Of Years Ago

What if Humans are the aliens we’ve been looking for all along? According to experts, humans were most likely crossbred with another species, perhaps from the star system Alpha Centauri –which is one of the closest solar systems to Earth—in the distant past, giving birth to modern humans.

Tell Al-Uhaymir modern-day Iraq, where the ancient Sumerian city of Kish used to be, archaeologists found one of the oldest ancient documents on the planet, the tablet of Kish which is believed to date back to the year 3500 BC.

The Sumerian king list states that Kish was the first city to have kings following the deluge, beginning with Jushur.
Jushur’s successor is called Kullassina-bel, but this is actually a sentence in Akkadian meaning “All of them were lord”. Thus, some scholars have suggested that this may have been intended to signify the absence of a central authority in Kish for a time.

This ancient document is believed to precede the cuneiform writing of the Sumerians, and the Egyptian hieroglyphs for almost one hundred years.

Developing the ability to express thoughts through written language is one of the first ways in which man differed from the animal kingdom.

Five thousand years since, humans have developed electricity, divided the atom, developed computers, and led man to the moon. We have achieved things that other species have still not.
No other species on earth can attribute such unique achievements in such a short period of time. Interestingly, compared to other species of the earth, our ‘evolution’ is relatively short.

It has been a short period of time, most likely a few million years since the first hominid walked on Earth. Precisely this is one of the biggest scientific questions of all times: Why have only our species emerged to this truly advanced technological intelligence?

Evidently, there is nothing more advanced than humans on planet Earth.
While there are different ‘intelligent’ species on Earth, none of them makes use of technology like us.
Just imagine for a second, if for some reason, mankind had to return to the jungle, and survive there. Many experts agree that most of them would not survive for a very long period of time.

Many scientists agree that humans, in addition to their intelligence, are not very capable to occupy a wide range of environments. In other words, we are very limited when it comes to our planet.

In addition to our fascinating intelligence, biologists have also noticed contrasts between human physiology and that of other animals on earth. Many scientists agree that compared to other species on earth, humans are rather strange. For example, a baby horse when born is able to walk and function almost independently, but this a human baby cannot do, which makes us quite helpless. In other words, we are born before being neurologically ready for life.

Many researchers agree that there are many vulnerabilities that accompany our intelligence.
Humans on earth eventually became bipeds, which freed up our superior extremities allowing us to manipulate objects, create tools and much more. But for all this, experts believe that our species has paid an expensive price. Lumbar pain a sign that according to many experts could tell us a lot about our species. Curiously, other animals on Earth do NOT have this problem. It’s as if only humans are affected by some of these problems.

So what does all of this mean? According to one expert, it means that we are the aliens we’ve we been looking for all along. A new theory proposed by Dr. Ellis Silver states that there are several tell-tale signs present in the human race that suggest human beings did not evolve ALONGSIDE other lifeforms on Earth.
The book called ‘Humans are not from Earth: a scientific evaluation of the evidence’ is basically a resume of theories for and mostly against man’s evolution on Earth.

In the book, leading environmentalist and ecologist Dr. Ellis Silver goes through an evaluation of thirteen leading hypothesis and seventeen factors which suggest HUMANS ARE NOT FROM EARTH.
Mankind is supposedly the most highly developed species on the planet, yet is surprisingly unsuited and ill-equipped for Earth’s environment: harmed by sunlight, a strong dislike for naturally occurring foods, ridiculously high rates of chronic disease, and more said Dr. Ellis in an interview.

According to Dr. Ellis, humans might suffer from back pain because our species initially evolved on another planet with a lower gravity, adding to the mysteries, Dr. Ellis also indicates that it is strange that newborns have large heads and make it difficult for mothers to give birth, which can result in fatalities for both mother and child.
So where do we come from? According to Dr. Ellis, Neanderthals were most likely crossbred with another species, perhaps from the star system Alpha Centauri –which is one of the closest solar systems to Earth— in the distant past, giving birth to modern humans.

In his book, Dr Ellis Silver points to a number of physiological features to make his case for why humans did not evolve alongside other life on Earth

According to Dr. Ellis, there are millions of people around the globe who ‘feel’ that they do not belong on Earth.
Dr. Ellis explains: “This suggests (to me at least) that mankind may have evolved on a different planet, and we may have been brought here as a highly developed species. One reason for this … is that the Earth might be a prison planet since we seem to be a naturally violent species and we’re here until we learn to behave ourselves.”

Dr. Ellis concludes that mankind did not evolve from that particular strain of life, but evolved elsewhere and was transported to Earth (as fully evolved Homo sapiens) between 60,000 and 200,000 years ago.
Furthermore, as noted by Robert Sepher, according to modern DNA sequencing, it is demonstrated that humanity as we know it, isn’t just ONE single ‘race’ that descended from the same ancestor in Africa, but a hybridized species, with a far more enigmatic truth behind it all.

Many questions have been raised in the discussion about Rh negative blood. If mankind did, in fact, evolve from a mutual ancient African ancestor, theories state that everyone’s blood would be compatible, but regrettably, this is not the case. This raises numerous questions that science alone has not been able to fully answer. Where did Rh-negative blood come from? And why is it that a Rh-negative mother carrying Rh positive children tries rejecting her own offspring? Is it possible that this can be explained by a rather controversial theory? A theory which suggests that humanity isn’t in fact one race, but a hybridized species.

The book was written by Robert Sepehr, Species with Amnesia: Our Forbidden History tells us more about the enigmatic blood type Rh-negative. Not only does Species with Amnesia suggest mankind is, in fact, a hybridized species, the author suggests that highly advanced civilizations have been on Earth before us, just to be destroyed by some great global catastrophe, as mysteriously, history tells us.
Sepehr argues that for each race that has died out, another has taken its place, with a selected few holding on to the memories and sacred knowledge of the past race.

In our vanity, we think we have discovered some of the great truths of science and technology, but we are in fact only just beginning to rediscover the profound wisdom of past civilizations. In many ways, we are like an awakening Species with Amnesia, yearning to reclaim our forgotten past. –
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.

“There are 612 primate species and subspecies recognized by the International Union for Conversation of Nature (IUCN), and not one has Rh-negative blood”. – Robert Sepehr, Species with Amnesia: Our Forbidden History.

THE 'EVIDENCE' TO SUGGEST HUMANS CAME FROM SPACE SO FAR

Was this home? Dr Ellis suggests Neanderthals such as homo erectus were crossbred with another species, perhaps from Alpha Centauri. Star Proxima Centauri is pictured in the star system, which is the closest to our solar system some 4.37 light years away from the sun

Must See! Suicidal, Death-Diving Comet Plunges Into the Sun (Video)

A Sun-diving Comet Crashed into the Sun on March 2, 2019. Coronagraphs onboard the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) recorded the death plunge. The doomed comet was a member of the Kreutz family.

Kreutz sungrazers are fragments from the breakup of a single giant comet many centuries ago.

VIDEO. Kijk hoe SpaceX-ruimteschip aan ISS koppelt en bemanning kijkje gaat nemen - HLN.be

Bron: Belga

Om 11.51 uur was het contact een feit, 27 uur na de lancering met een Falcon 9-raket vanuit Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral. De koppeling vond plaats 400 kilometer boven het aardoppervlakte, ten noorden van Nieuw-Zeeland. Binnen een tweetal uur is de volgende testfase gepland met de opening van het luik.

Crew Dragon van SpaceX met succes gelanceerd. Nu brengt hij dummy ruimte in, deze zomer volgen echte astronauten

Het onbemande tuig, gebouwd om mensen te vervoeren, zette voor de testvlucht koers naar het ISS met een pop aan boord. De Crew Dragon moest zich autonoom aan het ISS koppelen. Volgende vrijdag komt het ruimteschip terug naar de aarde. Ripley, de pop aan boord genoemd naar het hoofdpersonage in de Alien-films, is voorzien van sensoren om te kijken welke krachten echte astronauten zouden ondergaan en doorheen de capsule is er ook een waaier aan meetinstrumenten.
Lukt de test, dan zouden er nog voor het einde van het jaar twee astronauten met de Crew Dragon reizen.

Zowat acht jaar geleden stopten de VS met autonome bemande ruimtevluchten met de spaceshuttle. Sinds 2011 staat Rusland vanop de basis Bajkonoer in Kazachstan in voor het transport van Amerikaanse astronauten naar en van het ISS.

OVERAL TER WERELD ZIET MEN INEENS MYSTERIEUZE LICHTEN ( VIDEO )

Wanneer één iemand iets vreemds ziet in de lucht, dan is dat bijzonder, maar daar blijft het dan meestal ook bij. 

Maar, als mensen wereldwijd hetzelfde zien, inclusief piloten, dan denk je al snel aan een buitenaardse invasie, nep of echt.

Waar we nu mee te maken hebben is een soort golf van waarnemingen van vreemde lichten in de lucht. Een golf die enkele weken geleden begon met de waarneming van twee Britse piloten van Air Midwest uit Gloucester die onafhankelijk van elkaar vreemde dingen zagen. 

Beide vliegtuigen waren bezig met IFR trainingsvluchten (leren vliegen op alleen instrumenten), toen beiden een rood en een oranje licht waarnamen. 

Het ene toestel vloog op een hoogte van 7.000 voet en de andere op 4.000 voet en ze probeerden een dusdanige koers te vliegen dat ze de lichten zouden onderscheppen. Maar, hoe ze ook probeerden, dit lukte niet, omdat de lichten zich steeds sneller leken te verwijderen. 

Ze beschrijven de lichten als ongeveer op dezelfde hoogte als waar zij vlogen, met een vierkante vorm. Dit zou kunnen, maar omdat dit soort lichten ook vaak pulseren, zou de vorm ook optisch bedrog kunnen zijn. Maar, hoe dan ook, ze namen vreemde rood/oranje lichten waar. 

In de video onderaan dit artikel komt Tyler van Secureteam nog met een gelijksoortige waarneming. De locatie is onbekend, maar ook hier een vreemd roodachtig licht in de lucht.

Ook in de Filipijnen wordt een golf aan roodachtig lichten gemeld, zodanig zelfs dat er uitgebreide reportages op de nationale nieuwszender te zien zijn. Voorbeeld hiervan is te bekijken in de video van Tyler.

Maar, veel dichterbij huis worden ze ook waargenomen, zoals te zien in de volgende video die gemaakt is half februari door iemand die in Frankrijk buiten liep. 

Er staat dat is gefilmd in noordwest Frankrijk, dus ergens in de buurt van Normandië of Bretagne. 

Rond dezelfde tijd maakt ook iemand anders aan de andere kant van de oceaan een opname van een vreemd roodachtig licht in de lucht. 

Zowel de video hierboven als degene hieronder zijn op het moment dat wij ze vinden minder dan 100 keer bekeken. Dat is meestal wel een goede aanwijzing dat je met een echte opname te maken hebt en niet met een advertentieklikker. 


Het soort gevoel dat je hierbij krijgt is dat er ergens net buiten de aarde een grote buitenaardse vloot hangt en dat die op verschillende plaatsen op aarde verkenners naar beneden heeft gestuurd. 

Als we er even vanuit gaan dat dit allemaal geen onderdeel vormt van de geplande nep buitenaardse invasie, maar dit echt buitenaardsen zijn, dan is het natuurlijk heel erg interessant om er achter te komen wat zij denken/willen. 

Het is te hopen dat ze voor hun beeldvorming niet teveel naar MSM kanalen bekijken, want dan zien we ze nooit meer terug (of ze blijven juist dat kan natuurlijk ook).

En dan is er natuurlijk nog de mogelijkheid dat die enorme vloot is gekomen om een beperkt aantal mensen mee te nemen naar waar het ook is waar zij vandaan komen. 

Probleem dat wij dan weer hebben is dat we dan bijna 60 procent van onze lezers kwijtraken.

Hierna volgt de video van Tyler over de wereldwijde toename van de vreemde rode lichten. 


En voordat er misschien heel veel mensen vertrekken naar andere delen van het universum, is het misschien handig om snel nog even gebruik te maken van het aanbod van Orjana voor Niburulezers deze week, zodat ze na een lange ruimtereis in ieder geval gezond aankomen.

When you have more money than God, what’s next? What could the man who has everything possibly want? Well, transforming humanity into a space-faring civilization, and the immortality that comes with it, seems a likely bet and that looks like the direction many of these billionaires want to go. Amazon founder and Lex Luthor doppelganger Jeff Bezos recently spoke at a members-only event at New York’s Yale Club about his space colonization ambitions with his company Blue Origin. At the event, Bezos described his vision for the future which, according to him, would see one trillion humans living in space, a society of “thousands of Mozarts and Einsteins,” and an Earth whose natural beauty and environment has been preserved by moving heavy industries off-world.

According to Business Insider, who transcribed the speech, Bezos said:

“The solar system can support a trillion humans, and then we’d have 1,000 Mozarts, and 1,000 Einsteins. Think how incredible and dynamic that civilization will be.

But if we’re going to have that, we do have to go out into the solar system. You have to capture more of the sun’s output, and we have to use all of the resources that are out in space, in terms of minerals and not just energy. And that’s very doable, but we have to get started.”

The alternative to going to space, according to Bezos, is bleak. Citing compounding energy use, he says a future locked on earth would be one of “population control and energy rationing,” and that’s not the future he wants for his grandchildren’s grandchildren.

Unlike Elon Musk, who is also deep into the new billionaire space race, Bezos doesn’t believe we should colonize other planets. Instead, he says we will build giant “O’Neil-style” cylindrical space colonies:

[T]he space colonies we’ll build will have many advantages. The primary one is that they’ll be close to Earth. The transit time and the amount of energy required to move between planets is so high. But if you have giant space colonies that are energetically close and, in terms of travel time close to Earth, then people will be able to come and go. Very few people are going to want to leave this planet permanently — it’s just too amazing.

On the matter of what happens to the Earth, Bezos says that the goal of building a space-faring civilization is to protect it. Locked down here we have no choice but to exploit all of the finite resources, but in space that won’t matter. He says:

“Ultimately what will happen, is this planet will be zoned residential and light industry. We’ll have universities here and so on, but we won’t do heavy industry here. Why would we? This is the gem of the solar system. Why would we do heavy industry here? It’s nonsense.”

Jeff Bezos says he now believes Blue Origin, his private aerospace company, is the most important work he will ever do. To fund this important work, Bezos reportedly liquidates $1 billion worth of Amazon stock every year. The company is focused on building a low-cost, reusable launch vehicle, which Bezos believes is the key to extending our reach to the stars. He says:

“The fact of the matter is we don’t have forever, and the first step — I don’t know all future steps — but I know one of them is we need to build a low-cost, highly operable, reusable launch vehicle. No matter which path you take, it has to go through that gate.”

Now, I’m feeling a little bit confused. On one hand, Jeff Bezos is Lex Luthor. On the other hand, he’s right. If we could sure that this future, no matter who gets to have their statue built, is the one that’s coming, I think we’d all sleep a little easier and worry a little less. There are all sorts of problems with Jeff Bezos and Amazon. There are all sorts of problems with everybody. But there is something singularly beautiful about dreaming of the stars. To quote astronaut David Scott as he was standing on the surface of the Moon:

“As I stand out here in the wonders of the unknown at Hadley, I sort of realize there’s a fundamental truth to our nature, Man must explore . . . and this is exploration at its greatest.

For when I look at the Moon I do not see a hostile, empty world. I see the radiant body where man has taken his first steps into a frontier that will never end.”

March is supposed to come in like either a lion or a lamb, but this year’s relief-that-February-is-over month has come in like odd UFO recordings. Following a recent sighting of two UFOs mysteriously hovering for almost an hour over a major international airport in Peru, reports and recordings have come in showing a strange ring of UFOs over Wales and a wing or sock-shaped formation of lights (obviously a deceptive alien maneuver) over Minnesota. If March comes in like a UFO, does it go out like a government disclosure?

“Upon my analysis of this fascinating footage in more detail I confirmed what the witnesses had seen and described also confirming the lights to be rotating in a circular uniformed formation, giving the impression of being fixed to a much larger circular base structure. Also frames were obtained revealing an unusual unknown shaped object, multicoloured in appearance exhibiting a full visual spectrum range. Near the end of the footage the lights appear to change angle to a 45 degrees angle but continuing to rotate as they did in the horizontal position before blinking out of sight for good.”

The Welsh sighting occurred in 2012 but the video was only released recently by British UFO researcher Jason Gleaves and, while unresolved, offers a brief but good tutorial on how to take a UFO video and then how to analyze it. (Watch the video here.) Gleaves received the video from teen brothers Nathan and Alex Thomas, who claim they saw the UFO around 3am on January 3, 2012 in Denbigh, North Wales. Deciding it wasn’t fireworks and puzzled by the lack of sound, they recorded it using a camera Nathan had just received for Christmas. Gleaves complimented Nathan on his “steady focus” and for focusing and zooming on local landmarks. Gleaves then used daytime photos of the same landscape to determine that the UFO was traveling above trees less than two miles away. Yes, Gleaves knows what you’re thinking.

“Other possible factors and identification of the unknown light sources could be drones, but during 2012 drone technology had not been widely available to the public as they are today, so I don’t believe the lights to be drones.”

Flying saucer? Gleaves knows better than to propose that, given he’s working with a 37 second video taken at 3 am. Nonetheless, he confirmed it was something round that he couldn’t identify. A blimp or hot air balloon? Perhaps he’s better with sock-shaped UFOs. That’s what is seen in a video hovering over St. Louis Park (a western suburb of Minneapolis) taken on February 10, 2019, by Netzaid Vazquez Diaz and uploaded to the Internet last week where it was picked up around the world. (Watch the video here.) Diaz must have read the UFO video handbook because he started his clip with a shot of the ground, then up some buildings and into the sky. Unfortunately, the 25 second clip. Doesn’t show much more than a sock-shaped circle of lights – an alien spaceship with one wing’s lights out? A TR-3B with one wing’s lights out? A lighted kite? A laser light display? A tight formation of drones? We could go on but none of those can be conclusively proven by this video and, although other videos are rumored to exist along with other witnesses, none have surfaced as of this writing.

Interesting videos … no conclusions. Remember the rules of UFO recording: keep your batteries charged, your arm steady and your landmarks (and opinions) in perspective. And hold your breath while shooting … but not while waiting for March to go out like a government UFO disclosure.

Is there lakes on Mars?

Not exactly proper English for a remake of David Bowie’s classic song, but in this case the answer is “Yes” … or at least “Yes, at one time.” For the first time ever, researchers have found solid evidence of large liquid lakes on Mars that were interconnected and possibly teeming with life. Cavemen, sailors and lawmen? Only a hands-on look at this geological evidence will answer that question. Elon?

“Early Mars was a watery world, but as the planet’s climate changed this water retreated below the surface to form pools and ‘groundwater. We traced this water in our study, as its scale and role is a matter of debate, and we found the first geological evidence of a planet-wide groundwater system on Mars.”

As University of Utrecht planetary geologist Francesco Salese explains in his new study published in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, credit for this fantastic discovery goes to the three-camera team of the High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) on the ESA’s Mars Express spacecraft, and NASA’s High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) and the Context Camera onboard NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. All of that observational equipment was aimed at 24 deep, enclosed craters in the northern hemisphere of Mars. At a depth of 4,000 meters, which the study defines as 4,000 meters below an arbitrary Martian sea level, nearly all of the craters showed similar evidence that could only be attributed to water.

Mars Express

“Features include channels etched into crater walls, valleys carved out by sapping groundwater, dark, curved deltas thought to have formed as water levels rose and fell, ridged terraces within crater walls formed by standing water, and fan-shaped deposits of sediment associated with flowing water. The water level aligns with the proposed shorelines of a putative martian ocean thought to have existed on Mars between three and four billion years ago.”

Based on this commonality in the majority of the craters, co-author Gian Gabriele Ori, director of the Università D’Annunzio’s International Research School of Planetary Sciences in Italy, believes these underground lakes connected Martian oceans which stretched across the planet 3.5 billion years ago. Because of Marian climate change, this water eventually went underground where it’s possible that it could still exist in pockets of ice. Will that ice or the soil around it contain evidence of Martian life?

“The team also spotted signs of minerals within five of the craters that are linked to the emergence of life on Earth: various clays, carbonates, and silicates. The finding adds weight to the idea that these basins on Mars may once have had the ingredients to host life. Moreover, they were the only basins deep enough to intersect with the water-saturated part of Mars’ crust for long periods of time, with evidence perhaps still buried in the sediments today.”

If there was water …

That’s a qualified ‘yes’, which means thirsty Martian explorers may want to avoid drinking from any water fountains or wells as they traverse the Red Planet. In fact, the discovery highlights the importance of unmanned expeditions in general, as Dmitri Titov, ESA’s Mars Express project scientist, explained in the press release. (Charts and photos here and here.)

“It is especially exciting that a mission that has been so fruitful at the Red Planet, Mars Express, is now instrumental in helping future missions such as ExoMars explore the planet in a different way. It’s a great example of missions working together with great success.”

Working together in space. If the Mars Express and Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter can do it, why not humans from the space-exploring countries as well?

Do we need a Space Force … or more Space Friends?

In the 1988 science fiction film Alien Nation, a group of alien immigrants arrives on Earth and attempts to assimilate into society beginning with a “colony” in Los Angeles. Set in 1991, it explores many of the common themes prevalent in such films, which include xenophobia, extraterrestrial invasion, and alien life in general.

The aliens in the film, which are called the Tenctonese or, informally, the “Newcomers,” are for the most part very much like humans in appearance, apart from both sexes having bald heads that feature exotic patterns. Despite their similar appearance, they possess a number of physiological differences; namely, contact with salt water is deadly for the Newcomers.

Apart from this primary difference, the Newcomers in Alien Nation are more or less human-like (as are most aliens in science fiction, if they aren’t depicted in the other tired “octopoidal” trope). But if and when we eventually find intelligent life elsewhere in the universe, how much like us will it really be? Would aliens enjoy the same sorts of things humans do–such as food, arts, and entertainment–and if not, how would they differ?

As far as having an appreciation for the arts, some have argued that aliens would absolutely be like us in that respect. Writing for Space.com in 2010, Clara Moskowitz noted that,  “Art may attract aliens more than academics because any extraterrestrial civilization that we are able to get in touch with is likely to be much older than us and more technically advanced.” Moskowitz, reporting on the SETIcon Conference on the search for extraterrestrial intelligence held that year, noted that experts in attendance were optimistic about ET’s interest in the cultured side of human existence.

Part of this has to do with the fact that aliens likely wouldn’t be as interested in learning about math and science from us. Especially if they were able to travel to our planet from elsewhere in the cosmos since this would require more advanced knowledge of physics than we already possess. “However,” Clara wrote, “our art and music is singularly human, and could likely be fascinating to an alien species.”

While soaking in their fill of Earthly culture, aliens would no doubt be inclined to try our culinary offerings, too. However, aliens might want to take in more than just their fill of what Earth has to offer to interstellar diners, according to social scientist and chef Christy Spackman at ASU’s School for the Future of Innovation in Society. Spackman (much like this author) began to think about the common stereotypes about aliens that emerge in common sci-fi depictions of them. This led her to consider what a “sensory meal” shared with aliens might be like if they were to visit Earth; among the things we might have to offer them include “feasts of light,” and how it interacts with the eyes (that is, if the aliens in question have ocular organs like ours). Also on the list were olfactory feasts (again, as with before, that’s if the aliens have noses, or something akin to one that assists in detecting aromas), and a host of other things.

“It calls for generosity of spirit,” Spackman said of her sensory feasts, “both in those who are producing and for those who are consuming, and a willingness to say, ‘This will never be perfect, so we can meet at the good enough’.”

Also, if aliens are really anything like us, after partaking in a feast, they may need to pencil in a bit of time for a nap afterward. Then again, one popular theory about our inability to find aliens already involves the notion that it’s because they may be hibernating, in which case going back to sleep may not be quite so appealing. However, part of the rationale for this theory involves alien life that has graduated beyond the stage of biology; that is, aliens who have shed their natural state in order to inhabit artificial or synthetic forms, which are hypothetically capable of sustaining themselves in harsh environments where biology simply could not thrive.

“Having essentially uploaded their minds onto powerful computers, the civilizations choosing to do this could enhance their intellectual capacities or inhabit some of the harshest environments in the universe with ease,” wrote Robert Hart in an ASU collaboration with Slate in 2017. The idea is that such aliens might estivate–that is, spend a particularly hot period in a state of near or complete dormancy–awaiting a period in the future where the universe has cooled to a point that they may operate more efficiently (entropically speaking, of course).

If we’re ever to know the full extent to which aliens may end up being like us, they will probably need to have something else in common with humans: just like we search for other forms of life, they will likely have to be searching for us. Of course, while we continue to look for intelligent life on other worlds, it remains to be shown whether or not we truly have much of it on this world… perhaps with time, and a little luck, aliens will eventually find us and can shed some light on that age-old earthly question, too.

A Finnish border guard was, quite literally, stopped in their tracks Sunday after a ‘new island’ appeared in the middle of the frozen Lake Inari without warning.

Finland’s Lapland Border Patrol tweeted images of the strange, apparently geological, phenomenon; an impressive feat considering temperatures in the region had plummeted as low as -25 degrees Celsius.

And there was no sight nor sound of any volcanic activity in the area that might explain the sudden appearance of new rock formations, seemingly out of nowhere.

According to RT who refers to comments on Twitter, it was merely an optical illusion, light behaves differently when passing through atmospheric layers, which can lead to mirage-like effects along the horizon, reflecting and refracting distant landscapes in mind-bending ways.

They can say it just an optical illusion but is it possible that the border Patrol has photographed something from another world, a parallel universe, caused by a glitch in dimensions?

UFOs Sighted Over Lima International Airport In Peru, Feb 27, 2019, Video! UFO Sighting News.

 

Date of sighting: February 27, 2019

Location of sighting: Lima, Peru Airport

 

A UFO was seen over the Lima, Peru Airport last week. While airplanes were coming and going, someone noticed a hovering object over the runway. The object tased for an hour before just disappearing and flights were delayed. Apparently aliens assume that alien UFOs over an busy airport with loads of planes is would be taken better than flying over your home and hovering. Why? Flying objects are expected at the airport...making even a UFO sighting more relaxed and less of a surprise. Honestly...alien are suppose to land at the airport not your house...right? I say...let them land. Give them clearance!

Video states: 

According to Peruvian media reports on February 27, 2019, two UFOs were sighted over Jorge Chávez International Airport at 0630 UTC and they remained for almost an hour over the Lima sky according to official information from the personnel of the control tower of the airport. Flights were delayed due to UFOs sighting. The staff of the Peruvian Corporation of Airports and Commercial Aviation ( Corpac ) witnessed the UFOs over the airport and even videotaped and photographed. Corpac issued the official report, and it is the first time Corpac provides a detailed report on UFOs over international airport.

According to the report, witnesses reported two UFOs over the main airport on February 27. In addition, they detailed that the objects remained for approximately one hour over the airport. The events occurred at dawn on Wednesday, February 27. The control tower workers said that the UFOs were positioned on runway 33.

According to information, the UFOs were also seen by the ground crew of two planes that covered the Lima-Córdova and Lima-Quito routes. One of the unidentified objects appeared for a few moments on the radar, but moments later, both disappeared from the view of the airport staff. In the down below image, you can see the official report of Corpac and signed by the technician José Zarabia Salas, who has confirmed the UFO sighting.

UFO Caught Disguised As Sun Sinking Into Ocean Off California, Video, Dec 2018, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: December 25, 2018
Location of sighting: California, USA

This UFO was caught by spectators who observed a UFO disguised as the sun sinking into the ocean. I have heard of such things, but this is the first good video of such a phenomenon. Under water alien bases do exist, and since 75% of the earth is covered by water,  I assume 75% of all alien bases are too.

Strange sunset do not you think? We are used to seeing the sunrise and sunset on the horizon line. But something illogical could be seen on December 25 in California. The sun went into the ocean. Strange sunset in California USA

UFO Seen Above Mount Adams, Washington At ECETI Ranch, March 2019, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: March 1, 2019

Location of sighting: Mount Adams, Washington

 

This UFO was captured at the top of Mount Adams. This is the same location where people from around the world, including TV news and military generals have visited at night and have seen UFOs. James Gillian, the owner of the ranch noticed the UFOs decades ago and since then opened up a camping area for UFO researchers who see them nightly...with video to prove it. James Gillian himself says he was invited by an alien onboard a ship to see what its like. I have been following James for over 7 years...and he never fails to impress with his videos, photos and personal experiences with the aliens he says lives in a base 4-5 miles below Mount Adams. Want to prove him wrong? I dare you to go there and try. Bring the night vision, scopes and video recorders.

Video states: 

We made our way to the ECETI Ranch, at the base of Mount Adams, to make contact! During our stay, we recorded many anomalous objects floating in and around the mountain. At the beginning, we believed these were hitchhikers, but upon closer examination, in the thermal camera (which detects heat signatures), no heat (from a body) was detected. The truth is, up to 95% of what people think are ET craft, is explainable, but we are going after that 5% that are legitimate other worldly craft, in our search around the globe.

Aliens or military vessel? V-shaped UFO spotted in United Kingdom

Interestingly, the V-shaped UFO spotted in the United Kingdom seems very similar to the alien spaceships depicted in Hollywood movies.

By : Nirmal Narayanan

Popular conspiracy theory YouTube channel 'UFOmania' has recently uploaded a video that shows an eerie V-shaped flying object hovering in the skies of Failsworth, United Kingdom. Interestingly, the perfectly cut V-shape of the UFO seems very similar to the spacecraft which people have seen in Hollywood sci-fi films.

Even though the image was captured by the witness last October, pictures of this incident became viral after it was shared by a website named UFO Sightings Hotspot, and later by the YouTube channel UFOmania. The creepy photo is now being submitted to MUFON (Mutual UFO Network), and they are apparently investigating the authenticity of the image.

As the image went viral online, many people have started arguing that this UFO could actually be an alien vehicle from deep space. Most of these extraterrestrial buffs argue that aliens who live in the far nooks of the universe used to visit earth regularly to monitor human activities.

"It looks straight out a movi.. which makes you wonder what Hollywood knows?" commented Ninorc Sinned, a YouTube user.

In the meantime, a section of other conspiracy theorists claims that these V-shaped crafts could be secret military vessels developed by the United States Air Force. Conspiracy theorists have long been claiming that the USAF had developed a triangular craft allegedly named 'TR-3B' during the time of Gulf War. It should be noted that the shape of TR-3B often depicted by conspiracy theorists seems very similar to that of the flying object spotted in the United Kingdom.

"Incredible! It looks like the government! They've been working on these since the 40's," commented LeAnn Winter, another YouTuber.

However, sceptics were quick to dismiss both the alien and secret military weapon theory. As per these sceptics, the V-shaped object is actually the reflection from the car's window.

‘We were fishing on a pier, then aliens levitated us aboard UFO’ : The story of one of the world’s most sensational ‘alien encounters’

by Craig Campbell

An artist’s impression of the incident

It was one of the most sensational alien encounter stories ever.

On October 11 1973, Charles Hickson, 42, and Calvin Parker, 18, were fishing at the Pascagoula River, Mississippi, when they say something incredible happened.

A strange craft appeared near them, a door opened and three weird creatures levitated them onboard.

Having studied the two humans, shipyard workers Charles and Calvin were then put back where they had been, at the west bank pier.

One man who looked deep into the story and wrote a book about it with Parker is Philip Mantle, a top UFO researcher, from Pontefract.

Hickson sadly passed away eight years ago, but Parker is still with us, aged 64, and Philip was told by him that when they were taken onboard he was given some kind of injection to calm him down.

“Charles and Calvin were fishing off a pier when they heard a whirring or whizzing sound, saw two flashing blue lights, and reported that an oval-shaped craft, some eight feet across and eight or more feet high, suddenly appeared near them,” says Philip.

“A door opened on the ship, they said, and three creatures emerged and seized the men, floating or levitating them into the craft. Both men reported being paralysed and numb.

“Parker claimed he had fainted due to fright.

“They described the creatures as being roughly humanoid in shape and standing about five feet tall.

“The creatures’ skin was pale in colour and wrinkled, and they had no eyes that the men could discern, and slits for mouths.

“Their heads also appeared connected directly to their shoulders, with no discernible neck.

“There were three carrot-like growths instead – one where the nose would be on a human, the other two where ears would normally be.

“The beings had lobster-like claws at the ends of their arms, and seemed to have only one leg.

“Hickson later described the creatures’ lower bodies looking as if their legs were fused together, ending in elephant-like feet.

“Hickson also reported that the creatures moved in mechanical, robotic ways.

“Parker claimed that he could not recall what had happened to him inside the craft,” says Philip, “although later, during sessions of hypnotic regression, he offered some hazy details.”

Released about 20 minutes later, the men reported their story to the Keesler Air Force Base, but were told it had nothing to do with UFO reports.

They went to the Mississippi sheriff’s office, where sheriff Fred Diamond believed they were sincere and terrified, with Parker especially disturbed.

It was only after the book came out and was a bestseller that Philip uncovered a new document written by a doctor who said he believed the story.

Calvin Parker says: “It was the fear I felt that is hard to describe. As the alien made contact to my left arm I heard a whisk of what I thought was air, then all at once I became really relaxed, then all the fear was gone.”

He said he heard doctors talking about puncture marks on his arm and added: “This document simply confirms what I have always known, and that is both Charlie and I were given injections by these creatures and we had the puncture wounds to prove it.”

The police secretly recorded both men, sure they would betray themselves when they thought nobody was listening.

They didn’t, and the recorded conversation demonstrated they were terrified and disturbed by what had happened.

“I have been involved in UFO research for over 40 years and spent a great deal of time investigating UFO events first-hand,” Philip points out.

“I have never come across any official documentation that confirms that ‘puncture wounds’ as described by the witnesses, have had their claims officially documented by a professional in such a manner.

“For me this is a world first. Calvin Parker’s encounter and his description of being given a shot injection by the creatures to make him relax now seems to have been confirmed.”

When Charles Hickson passed away on September 9 2011, he had never changed his story, despite ridicule and disbelief.

He had even taken a lie detector test – both men volunteered – and the examiner also believed his story.

Amazingly, other people have since come forward to say they, too, witnessed strange events on that date.

Mike Cataldo, a retired US Navy chief petty officer, said he had observed a strange craft at dusk on the same date.

Two others, Maria and Jerry Blair, were interviewed in January of this year, when they came forward after seeing Calvin Parker on TV.

Irena Scott PhD, who interviewed them, said the Blairs described how they had been sitting in their car, looking out from the east bank of the Pascagoula River. At that time, Parker and Hickson were on the west bank.

Maria saw what she “thought was an airplane because of its bright lights flashing on”.

She said it was going back and forth across the sky.

“She told Jerry that the plane must be lost because it ‘didn’t act like it knows what direction it wants to go’.”

Perhaps it knew exactly what it was doing – and perhaps we are one step closer to proving that there really are other beings out there…

Self-folding drone could speed up search and rescue missions

Chloe Taylor

University of Zurich

A drone that can change shape in flight has been developed by researchers at the University of Zurich to assist with search and rescue missions.

Able to contract and fold, the aircraft can enter small cracks and spaces to stream footage to rescue teams via its two integrated cameras. The drone is designed for use in areas in disaster zones that become inaccessible to rescuers due to safety concerns or physical restrictions.

Davide Falanga, one of its developers, told CNBC on the phone that the drone could make rescue missions more efficient and effective.

”(This drone could have) multiple impacts – it can go into areas that would otherwise be inaccessible,” he said. “In the aftermath of an earthquake it could let rescuers enter and explore a collapsed building. We used the most efficient and stable systems allow it to fly longer, and have held public demonstrations in realistic scenarios which showed that this is a feasible product.

Funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation, the project took six months to go from concept to prototype. However, as the drone is still in early development stages, its developers have no timescale for a wide rollout.

“We would be open to commercializing and discussing opportunities with investors, but at the moment there’s no commercial plan,” Falanga told CNBC. “We have sometimes had to tinker with the system when we’ve deployed it — we want it to be deployed and work immediately, so we need about six months to a year to improve the drone and make it more robust so it can work in more scenarios. But the idea itself is definitely feasible.”

University of Zurich

According to the research paper written by the drone’s developers, their aircraft “could lead to a shift in the research community towards morphing aerial vehicles.”

However, they noted that there were still several unsolved research questions, such as “automatic morphology selection,”which refers to the robot’s ability to autonomously take the best shape for the task at hand.

Unsolved problems

Mohan Sridharan, senior lecturer at the University of Birmingham’s School of Computer Science, told CNBC via email that foldable drones were being explored by the wider robotics research community, with several concepts currently in development.

“This would indeed help in disaster response, but the stable navigation of such a drone is not a solved problem,” he said. “Also, complex applications such as disaster response pose other challenges related to perception, reasoning, and communication.”

Maria Kamargianni, lecturer in transport and energy at University College London, told CNBC on the phone that privacy concerns would need to be addressed before the drone could be commercialized.

“This is a very promising technology for search and rescue projects, and it’s much more economically viable than existing options. In circumstances where a helicopter or a drone could be used, a drone would be much cheaper to deploy,” she said.

“The technology has lots of other applications as well — for example, it could be used to examine the quality of materials on a collapsed bridge. But technologies must be developed in line with public acceptance of them, so these drones should be designed in a way that notifies the public they are being used by the authorities — this could be done by using distinctive colors. In rolling them out companies would also have to make sure they are not violating personal data regulations.”

Pilots Report Valentine's Day Sighting of UFOs over Gloucester, England

TOBIAS WAYLAND

Air Midwest

15 februari om 22:54 · 

According to a statement made by Air Midwest, two of the company's aircraft were conducting nighttime navigation exercises to the south and southeast of their home airfield when the encounter occurred.

Around 8:15 p.m, one of the aircraft was tracking south towards Gloucester at 7,000 feet after leaving the Birmingham air traffic zone. Meanwhile, a second aircraft was also tracking south towards Gloucester at 4,000 feet.

Both aircraft observed two lights—one red and one orange—in the sky south of Gloucester. The aircraft approached the lights on an interception track, but were unable to gain on the objects as they appeared to move further south of Gloucester as the aircraft approached.

The pilots and air traffic control were unable to identify the lights.

One of the pilot’s reports was included with the statement.

I observed initially 2 large square orange lights. One on top of each but slightly off set however there was a gap in height between them.

The top object was constantly orange. The lower one occasionally flicked white but majority of time was orange. In addition to that on 2 occasions I observed 5 orange lights but that was momentary.

"This second recording is between two pilots of callsign ‘Golf-Sierra India’ and ‘Golf- Alpha Mike’. The response of ‘Alpha Mikes’ captain is humorous as at the time he believes the light must be a normal event," said a statement accompanying the second recording.

The company later clarified their previous statement by insisting they had never claimed to have "encountered an extraterrestrial situation."

"We encountered unexplained airborne lights that defied our normal expectation of standard aircraft or meteorological activity," said the second statement. "We considered it could be night glow hot air balloons, but we are not aware any any such activities taking place and the objects observed seemed to move from their original location to another with a rapidity not in line with balloon activity...but of course the apparent changes of location could have been an optical illusion due to night effect."

"In conclusion, our pilots, both senior flight instructors and highly experienced commercial airline pilots with over 25,000 flying hours between them, together with their crews observed airborne lights the nature of which they were unable to identify," continued the statement. "For this fact alone we obviously can only describe the observations as ‘Unidentified Flying or Airborne Objects’. Hence referring to them as UFO’s, as that is what they were."

"We have no idea as to the origin of the objects and as yet we have not yet come across any standard explanation for what the objects could have been," it concluded.
