CHINA CONFIRMS IT HAS ITS OWN UFO TASK FORCE

Chinese Military Said to Be Using AI to Track an Increase in “Unidentified Air Conditions.”

TIM MCMILLAN AND MJ BANIAS· - BREAKING NEWSUAP

“The frequent occurrence of unidentified air conditions in recent years … brings severe challenges to air defence security of our country,” said Chen Li of the PLA’s Air Force Early Warning Academy, in a 2019 report cited by SCMP. 

The U.S. Director of National Intelligence is set to release a report detailing military encounters with UAP in the coming weeks. According to the New York Times, the report is expected to say that “the vast majority of more than 120 incidents over the past two decades did not originate from any American military or other advanced U.S. government technology.” 

Citing unnamed intelligence officials, the Times also reports that some sightings could be attributed to advanced Chinese or Russian military platforms. However, the Pentagon appears to also be baffled by a number of not-easily explainable incidents. In some cases, objects are said to demonstrate extreme acceleration, changes in direction, and the ability to operate underwater, which do not comport with any known technologies.

Heading up the current efforts to examine these UAP  is the Pentagon’s “UAP Task Force,” which was officially announced in mid-August of 2020. 

Recent reports by Chinese press say the PLA equally has its own UFO task force dedicated to investigating mysterious airborne encounters over Chinese airspace.  According to SCMP, China’s “unidentified air conditions” task force has been turning to Artificial Intelligence to help get to the bottom of recent UFO sightings. 

“One advantage of AI is that it can ‘think outside the box’ – checking crumbs of information scattered across many datasets created at different times and locations, and drawing links unseen by human eyes – to help determine whether sightings were caused by a hostile country, amateur aviation enthusiasts, nature, or ‘other reasons,’” Li told SCMP. 

China has had its fair share of reported UFO sightings. According to Chinese state media, in 2010, Hangzhou’s Xiaoshan airport was shut down, and flights were diverted, due to an object hovering above the runway. Airport officials told reporters that the object was seen around 8:00 PM local time. 

“We’ve received orders to shut down the airport until the sky is cleared,” a representative for the airport said. The object eventually disappeared and the airport resumed operations around 10:00 PM. Locals reported seeing a round glowing object that resembled a comet. Further information regarding this case is unavailable.

SCMP reports the PLA’s UFO task force has a multi-tier reporting system to handle unknown aerial sightings.  

The first tier reportedly consists of military radar stations, air force pilots, police stations, weather stations, and Chinese Academy of Sciences observatories, gathering as much data as possible on UFO or UAP events. This raw data is said to then be processed by the PLA’s regional military commands to conduct a preliminary analysis, before transferring data on to a national database. 

From there, PLA headquarters assigns a “threat index” to sightings based on the observed behaviours, frequencies, aerodynamic design, radioactivity, possible make and materials, along with any pertinent information.

China’s “threat indexing” is said to be aided by AI programs to help examine patterns that may not be easily identifiable to researchers and determine an object’s purpose. 

Chinese researchers say that some unusual and unexplained sightings near the South China Sea and “other sensitive waters near China” could be the results of increased U.S. military activities. 

While China may be interested in the UFO phenomenon, neighboring Japan has also become more involved in tracking unknown aerial objects in the Pacific. Last September, Japanese Defense Minister Taro Kono instructed Japanese military personnel on what to do if they spot UFOs that could potentially pose a threat to national security. 

Meeting with then U.S. Secretary of Defense Mark Esper in Guam, the two leaders agreed that Japan would be a strong ally in monitoring the South Pacific for incursions by unknown aerial objects. Earlier that year, in April, Japan began changing its guidelines surrounding how its military personnel would report sightings of unidentified objects. 

Kono personally admitted that he did not believe that these objects were of otherworldly origin, and it has led to speculation that China itself may be a perpetrator of several of these UAP-related incidents. 

With many officials and members of the public in the United States and Japan believing that advanced Chinese drones are swarming around American military targets, it is humorous that China points the finger at U.S. technology as being the cause of their own UFO sighting events. No one seems to be saying that it’s aliens.

There is perhaps no name more associated with UFO disclosure in 2021 than Luis Elizondo, the former head of the Pentagon’s secret Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP) and current whistleblower who is anxiously awaiting the National Intelligence report on what the government knows about “unidentified aerial phenomena.” Unfortunately, Elizondo already knows enough to be concerned that the report will be watered down and not contain the “truth.” If that’s the case, he has recently announced he wants to become the second-most-well-known UFO politician besides former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (sorry Marco Rubio) and run for office himself to do what Reid and others couldn’t – release the full and unredacted X-Files.

Luis Elizondo is a UFO whistleblower who claimed to have headed up a secret UFO study inside the Pentagon.

“If the Pentagon’s Public Affairs officers, and those who give them orders, continue to obfuscate and mislead the American people about the reality of UAP [Unidentified Aerial Phenomena, a k a UFOs] and what our government knows about them, I may have no choice but to put my boots back on and run for Congress. If that’s what it takes to get the truth out, that’s what I’ll do.”

Luis Elizondo

It wouldn’t be unusual for Luis Elizondo to put his boots on since he’s rarely seen without them, but the announcement that he would run for Congress, which he made in an interview with The Black Vault, is a first. Elizondo is upset that the emails and attachments – schedules, calendars, transcripts, etc. – from his time at the Pentagon were confirmed to have been destroyed. That revelation may have turned Elizondo into an angry political Incredible Hulk, as he warns in the interview.

“If I get a seat [in Congress], I will make sure [there is] total transparency on everything, not just UAPs, but all the other crap that I know that goes on behind these closed doors. I can assure you that there are elements in the Pentagon right now that do not want a cat like me sitting in Congress.”

If the report is as weak as he expects it to be, Elizondo describes it as an “intelligence failure” as major as 9/11. He bases this assessment partly on the fact that the 9/11 Commission Report took three years, while the UFO report was completed in 180 days. That means it won’t contain what Elizondo has been saying to anyone who will listen — that “someone, from somewhere, [is] displaying beyond next-generation technology … in our controlled airspace.” In was sounds like a campaign speech, he tells The Black Vault that if he were elected, he would force Congress and the Pentagon to disclose:

“Everything that can be safely disclosed without harming our national security. Our tax dollars have paid for answers. It’s about time the American people start to get them.”

Spoken like a true politician. Is Harry Reid his campaign manager?

Harry Reid

Would you vote for Luis Elizondo? Does he have a chance of winning? Is the presence of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena in our airspace really the biggest intelligence failure since 9/11? Is a promise of disclosure – both of UAPs and other secrets — enough to get him elected?

Will the aliens allow it?

Stranger things have happened.

When it comes to the present fascination for UFOs – whether on the part of the public or the media – there are two words that surface on most occasions. Those words are “the government.” That the government doesn’t think the UFOs seen on CNN, 60 Minutes and countless other media outlets are extraterrestrial. But, the government can’t be sure. That the government is concerned about Russian and Chinese technology. That the government is no more in the picture than we are. And so on and so on. Here’s the important part of all this, though: just because we have various spokespeople in government keeping us up to date on what’s going on right now, doesn’t mean the government knows everything. That may sound odd, but it’s true. For example, as UFO sightings reached epidemic proportions across the USA in the summer of 1947, the military swung into action, and various studies and operations were formulated that ultimately unified into an official, investigative operation known as Project Sign. That project would, in 1948, make way for Project Grudge; and, finally, Project Blue Book, which continued until 1969. Collectively, the three projects concluded that no UFO sighting investigated officially had ever had a bearing on national security, and there was no evidence to indicate that any UFO sightings represented alien visitations.

It’s a little known fact that when the Air Force began its UFO investigations in the late 1940s, it quietly farmed out some of the work to companies that had preexisting, working relationships with the military. As the now-declassified files of Project Grudge show, one program in particular was quietly handed over to the Weather Bureau. The Air Force wanted the bureau’s staff to find out all that it could on a mysterious, rare, weather-based phenomenon. It is known as ball lightning. As for what, exactly, ball lightning is, there’s this from the EarthSky website: “The orbs are typically about the size of a grapefruit, moving slowly over the ground. They have been seen during electrical storms, hence the early theories that they were simply a different form of lightning. They usually disappear after 10 seconds, quietly, but sometimes a bang sound can be heard. They have even been observed to pass through closed windows!” Most people in the program knew nothing of the ball lighting off-shoot. And they were government. That’s an important issue.

If you bring up the matter of ball lightning with most UFO researchers, they will likely roll their eyes and dismiss the whole thing with a swift wave of a hand or two. The possibility that some UFO sightings might actually be the result of encounters with nothing weirder than ball lightning causes Flying Saucer seekers to fume, rage and stomp around. And blood-pressure quickly reaches dangerous levels. Believe me, I’ve seen it all. And it’s not a pretty sight. I remember seeing Stan Friedman once getting all bent out of shape when the words “ball” and “lightning” popped up together. Even in the UFO field, it’s not well known that the U.S. military tried to weaponize ball lightning. The story can be found in the pages of Survey of Kugelblitz Theories for Electromagnetic Incendiaries. It was the brainchild of W.B. Lyttle and C.E. Wilson. At the time, they were in the employ of Melpar, Inc., which is described as “an American government contractor in the 20^th century Cold War period. At a time when most employment in Washington, D.C. was directly by the U.S. federal government, Melpar became an early private sector contracting company training a high technology workforce in the area.”

Lyttle and Wilson were assigned to the Edgewood Arsenal, and to what was intriguingly titled as a “New Concepts Division / Special Projects” operation. At the beginning of their 92-pages-long report, the two wrote: “The purpose of this study was to review the theory and experimental data on ball lightning, to compare the existing theory and experimental data to determine whether ball lightning is a high or low energy phenomenon, and if it is a high energy phenomenon define an effective theoretical and experimental program to develop a potential incendiary weapon.” It’s a fact that the work done by Lyttle and Wilson – which had an undeniable UFO tinge attached to it – could have provoked sightings of what witnesses might have assumed were UFOs. Notably, in the 1960s, the work of Lyttle and Wilson was carefully kept away from the Project Blue Book program, even though both Blue Book and the Lyttle and Wilson team were government.

Also on the matter of the government and UFOs – and what it knows and what it doesn’t know – there’s the matter of the Collins Elite. That’s the nickname of an organization (with a real, still-classified title that remains hidden) funded by certain elements of the U.S. government to investigate the UFO phenomenon from a demonic and satanic perspective. What the Hell?! I first got onto the story back in 2007 and exposed it in 2010, in my Final Events book. For years, people scoffed at the idea there could be a group, deep within government, studying the possibility that the alien Greys of Ufology are the minions of Satan. Personally, I don’t think the UFO phenomenon is demonic, but I decided to write the book when I realized that such a group really did exist. In other words, the story was a fascinating one to share with people interested in UFOs. But, here’s the most relevant part of the whole thing: almost everyone within the government knew next to nothing about the Collins Elite. Most of them still don’t know of it. Or, more accurately, they have been denied access to it. Just a few years ago Senator Harry Reid revealed (to a small degree) the existence of the group and confirmed that its work revolved around the “aliens are really demons” angle. The group still remains to be fully exposed. And, even if you work for the U.S. government, you probably haven’t got clearance to know the lowdown of the Collins Elite.

As the material above shows, “the government” doesn’t know everything. Agency 1 doesn’t always share its data with Agency 2. And, that may be the case right now: while most people in government are baffled by the same footage that we’ve all been seeing recently, there could very well be other agencies (or, far more likely, small, well-hidden think-tanks like the Collins Elite) that know exactly what is going on.

Extraterrestrial First Contact: Support Science

http://www.firstcontact29.blogspot.com/

The US government has provided insiders an advance look at their “bombshell” report on Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP).

Here is my summation of their findings:

There’s stuff happening in the skies around military operations and it’s not us, but it could be the Chinese or Russians. We don’t think it’s aliens, but honestly we have no evidence one way or another. We just have a bunch of unexplained sightings, some by very experienced military pilots, and confirmation with high tech military instrumentation. We have no idea what it means.

Thanks. Very helpful. We do appreciate that fact that you are owning up to your ignorance. That’s a level of honesty we don’t usually get from the military.

So, where do we go from here? Clearly, the Pentagon will need billions of dollars to study this issue. General Dynamics salespeople are probably reading every UFO book they can get their hands on, to prepare the project bids. That work will also be farmed out to the other usual suspects- Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, and Raytheon. The entire investigation will be kept top secret. It will take years of work by thousands of consultants and we will end up having to beg for public updates.

Meanwhile, even outside of the military industrial complex folks are battling for position. Understandably, the scientists who have devoted their careers to the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) are not thrilled by the attention UAP have been receiving. SETI scientists have good reason to be concerned. If we become obsessed with UAP investigations, perhaps we won’t care anymore about SETI research? I agree that would be stupid. SETI research is important and it should continue to grow. But to ignore the UAP situation seems like a bad idea. The folks who say they believe UAP are natural or man-made don’t provide any evidence. And quite frankly, that’s just as dumb as the folks who claim UAP must be alien visitation, without any evidence.

I’ll be honest- I didn’t give a crap about UAP or UFOs until the New York Times articles on the subject came out in 2017. Luis Elizondo and his TV show, Unidentified, also grabbed my attention. Those reports contained the first evidence of UFO activity that seemed credible. Now I’m caught up in it like everyone else.

I have a simple suggestion for how to proceed: support science. We’ve been developing our scientific chops for hundreds of years now. Let’s keep on. We need a scientific study of UAP carried out by civilian scientists. Hell, NASA is even considering the subject. Bill Nelson recently spoke out about the subject and NASA has generously suggested that scientists working on NASA projects could consider UAP research. Not a very bold statement, but a nice first step. You have to remember- NASA is scared to death that politicians will turn their research into political fodder. Given their past experiences and our current political nightmare, that’s a realistic concern.

But we can’t turn our attention away from the amazing scientific work that is being conducted currently. Astrophysicists and astronomers are discovering new things about our universe in almost daily revelations. The discovery and confirmation of hundreds of exoplanets and an actual image of a black hole are just two of the revelations. We live in extraordinary times and that is due to the work of thousands and thousands of scientists, each working together, and arguing with each other, in pursuit of knowledge. Particle physics research continues to find new ways to baffle us. They are trying to answer mysteries such as the nature of dark matter and the inner workings of quantum mechanics.

We need to support those scientists. We need to give them adequate funding and we need to better educate ourselves so we can share in their excitement when the next finding comes out. We also need to be educated enough to understand that findings may contradict each other. Some research may have weaknesses, leading to a debate. That debate is not a failure of science- it is science in action.

We need to better support SETI research. It is a partner in our human space exploration. You may say- why study far off star systems when the aliens may be here on Earth? For the sake of argument, let’s say alien technology is here on Earth – doesn’t that mean we need to know even more about where it came from and how aliens are communicating? Even if the aliens sit down and hold a news conference at the United Nations, we are going to want to have a better look at the universe around us and collect our own data.  

I know we have many serious challenges here on Earth. Climate change, nuclear proliferation, cybercrime, and biological hazards threaten to undo our human civilization. We need to pour resources into those issues – serious monetary, scientific, and industrial resources. But we also need to continue the exploration of the universe. We need to know how the material world is organized and what it encompasses.

So, where do we go from here? Support science. Support open inquiry. Continue to debunk conspiracy theories and falsehoods. Have an honest and open conversation about what we find. Don’t allow politicians and other leaders to turn these inquiries into political weapons. They will do that anyway, but we can call them out when they do, and punish them for such cheap maneuvers.

Support science. Support the incredible NASA missions underway as we speak. Humans have multiple vehicles driving around Mars, conducting research, as we speak. That’s pretty damn cool. And just wait until the James Webb space telescope is operational. These are just a few of things it will be investigating. Support scientists and keep an open mind. There is so much we don’t know. Let’s just add UAP to the list and keep on with the good work.

If you want to support SETI efforts consider a donation to the SETI Institute: https://www.seti.org/donate

Jeff Bezos gaat in juli zelf mee de ruimte in op eerste passagiersruimtevlucht van zijn bedrijf Blue Origin

Jeff Bezos, de rijkste mens op aarde, gaat volgende maand de ruimte in. De oprichter van Amazon heeft ook een eigen commercieel ruimtevaartbedrijf, Blue Origin, dat op 20 juli voor het eerst toeristen naar de ruimte wil brengen. En Bezos heeft maandag bekendgemaakt dat hij en zijn broer Mark dan meegaan aan boord.

 Bron: ANP

Het ruimtevaartuig waarmee de toeristen naar de ruimte zullen worden gebracht, heet New Shepard. De draagraket zal verticaal opstijgen en op 75 km hoogte de bijhorende capsule uitzetten. Die klimt vervolgens naar een hoogte van ruim 100 kilometer. Daar zijn de passagiers enkele minuten gewichtloos en zien ze de kromming van de aarde. Daarna zakt het vaartuig terug de dampkring in om weer op aarde te landen. De capsule gaat niet hoog en niet snel genoeg om in een baan rond de aarde te komen.

Droom

Blue Origin had de plannen voor de eerste vlucht in mei naar buiten gebracht. Het was toen echter nog niet geweten dat Jeff Bezos zélf ook mee zou gaan. Hij maakte het nieuws vandaag bekend op Instagram. “Al sinds ik vijf jaar oud was, droom ik ervan om naar de ruimte te reizen”, schrijft Bezos bij een video waarin hij en zijn broer aan het woord komen. “Op 20 juli ga ik die reis maken met mijn broer. Het grootste avontuur, met mijn beste vriend.”

Plekje geveild

Een van de plekken aan boord wordt overigens geveild. Tot nu toe hebben bijna 6.000 mensen uit 143 landen een bod uitgebracht. Volgens Blue Origin staat het hoogste bod inmiddels op ongeveer 2,8 miljoen dollar, omgerekend 2,3 miljoen euro. De veiling loopt nog tot 12 juni.

Concurrentie

Concurrent SpaceX van zakenman Elon Musk brengt op dit moment al professionele astronauten naar het ruimtestation ISS. Later dit jaar wil hij een paar burgers een kans geven om naar de ruimte te gaan. In 2023 wil Musk ook een schatrijke Japanse zakenman een rondje rond de maan laten vliegen. 

Bovendien moet SpaceX over nog een paar jaar astronauten op de maan zetten en ze veilig weer terug naar de aarde brengen. Musk kreeg die miljardenopdracht van ruimtevaartorganisatie NASA. Blue Origin, dat naast de order greep, vecht het besluit momenteel aan. 

Een ander bedrijf, Virgin Galactic van Richard Branson, werkt ook aan commerciële toeristische vluchten naar de ruimte.

Illuminated Spherical UFO Spotted Over North Carolina's Coastline.. May 16, 2021

The witnesses states the following "While working on our catamaran, near the East coast of the US on May 16, 2021, we noticed a strange illuminated 'spherical' object hovering over us. I recorded the object with my Galaxy S21 phone taking video and pictures. The footage does not show the detail as well as in person, but you may be able to see there is a dark circle or spot in the center of the object. It seemed to rise above and drop below the clouds in relatively the same spot for hours. We have never seen a UFO before."

Sphere UFO Over Boat At North Carolina Beach, June 5, 2021, UFO Sighting News.

 

Date of sighting: June 5, 2021

Location of sighting: North Carolina Beach, USA

 

As a couple were recording a boating video for their Youtube channel, they noticed a glowing sphere passing above them. The glowing sphere is similar to the UFOs seen in both New York and in Colorado in the past. The object is easily seen against the bright blue sky and seems to move slowly in front of the clouds. Yes I said in front of...I watched the video in slow motion and came to the conclusion that the object is below the clouds, not behind them. This is 100% proof that aliens exist and sometimes...they are flying over us for hours without anyone even noticing them.

UFO During Sunset Over Texas, May 29, 2021, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: May 29, 2021
Location of sighting: Frisco, Texas, USA

 

The eyewitness was driving along when he noticed a strange glowing disk shape in the sky during sunset. As I have said before, if you want to see a real UFO, the watch a few sunsets. Here what we are seeing is a cloaked UFO (transparent) that is reflecting the light from the sun...and it is pushing a whole in the cloud ceiling. Its a well known fact that UFOs do punch holes in clouds. The O'Hare airport UFO incident back in 2006 was proof of that. That report made by MUFON was almost 100 pages long and detailed many different eyewitnesses who saw the UFO and then watched it shoot through the cloud ceiling...leaving behind a disk shaped hole for 15 minutes after it shot through. So...yes...UFOs make holes in clouds, but can also create clouds around themselves.

I love to search for ancient artifacts both in the deserts of Idaho, Nevada and Arizona as well as using my computer to search NASA archives of planets and moons. Today I am searching the moon, not for Indian artifacts like in Idaho where I found half a dozen obsidian arrow heads and donated them to the ISU museum where they told me they were over 800 years old, but instead I am looking at the full map of the dark side of the moon. 

 

I found an interesting structure which does conform to a lot of what us humans identify as structures. Its a large rectangle object, with numerous right angles to it. It also has three long arms on one side, each end in a bulb like shape. This is an alien space ship that has landed inside the small crater. Most likely its been abandoned for a newer model and left there so that others could use it to take any needed parts for their own ships. Many such craft exist on the moon. 

 

When humanity gets to the moon, alien technology will become common place. Its all over the moon, just laying around, abandoned. Imagine in 24 hours or retrieving such a craft and flying it back to earth...it would take humanity thousands of years into the technological future instantly, but only if a government doesn't label it a national security risk and keep it secret and use it for a military weapon...which...lets face it...will probably happen first.

Earth's ancient climate warns that we need to take urgent action, study suggests

By Chelsea Gohd 

"If we allow fossil fuel burning to continue to grow, our grandchildren may experience CO2 levels that haven't been seen on Earth for around 50 million years, a time when crocodiles roamed the Arctic," lead researcher James Rae said.

The history of CO2 on Earth is preserved in microscopic fossils and molecules, which researchers studied in-depth in a new climate study.

Scientists looked into Earth's ancient history and found that it would take serious action in reducing fossil fuel emissions to prevent our climate from reaching prehistoric warming levels. 

An international team of researchers has peered into the past to piece together the most complete history to date of carbon dioxide (CO2) levels on Earth over the last 66 million years in a new study. With this work, they aimed to bolster our understanding of the link between CO2 and climate, show how things have really changed since the time when dinosaurs last walked planet Earth and look to Earth's future as climate change continues to threaten our planets and its inhabitants. 

With this study, the team showed how, without a significant reduction in fossil fuel emissions, Earth will soon reach CO2 levels as high as they were about 50 million years ago.

"If we allow fossil fuel burning to continue to grow, our grandchildren may experience CO2 levels that haven't been seen on Earth for around 50 million years, a time when crocodiles roamed the Arctic," lead researcher James Rae, a researcher at the University of St. Andrews School of Earth and Environmental Sciences in Scotland, said in a statement.

"CO2 has transformed the face of our planet before," Rae said, and "unless we cut emissions as quickly as possible, it will do it again."

In this study, which was published Monday (May 31) in the journal the Annual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences, the team analyzed data taken over the last 15 years. This data came from previous research that took samples of ancient mud from the deep-sea floor. 

These ancient mud cores contained microscopic fossils and molecules that accumulated over time. These samples contain preserved information about CO2 levels and climate conditions from the past. 

So, by looking at these records of ancient climate history, the team was able to map out CO2 levels over time. This allowed them to compare modern-day CO2 levels with prehistoric levels and get a sense of what our world might look like if we return to these extreme climate conditions. 

"For instance," Rae said, "the last time CO2 was as high as it is today, enough ice melted to raise sea level by 20 meters [66 feet], and it was warm enough for beech trees to grow on Antarctica."

NASA's Curiosity rover spots strange, colorful clouds on Mars

By Meghan Bartels 

Curiosity has been cloud-watching.

An image made from 21 photographs taken by Curiosity shows twilight clouds just after sunset on March 19, 2021, adjusted to appear as the scene would to human eyes.

It might look like a postcard from Arizona, but this snapshot shows something much more exotic: the planet Mars, as seen by NASA's Curiosity rover.

The image is a combination of 21 individual photographs the rover took recently to study a strange type of wispy cloud over its Gale Crater home. Scientists realized two Earth years ago that the cloud type was forming earlier in the Martian year than they expected. So this Martian year, Curiosity was watching for the early clouds, and it was not disappointed. The clouds did indeed show up beginning in late January, when the robotic skywatcher began documenting the wispy, ice-rich clouds scattering sunlight in sometimes-colorful displays.

"I always marvel at the colors that show up: reds and greens and blues and purples," Mark Lemmon, an atmospheric scientist with the Space Science Institute in Colorado, said in a NASA statement. "It's really cool to see something shining with lots of color on Mars."

Strangely, these clouds appear higher in the Mars atmosphere than those clouds scientists typically see on the planet, according to NASA. Usually, if a cloud passes over Curiosity, the structures are full of water ice and float about 37 miles (60 kilometers) above the Martian surface.

The clouds in Curiosity's new photos are higher in the atmosphere, although NASA didn't specify their altitude. The distinction may reflect a different composition, clouds of frozen carbon dioxide or dry ice, according to the agency, although the scientists aren't yet confident in that explanation.

The clouds are at their prettiest just after sunset, when the last light makes the ice crystals glow, which is why scientists call them noctilucent, or night-shining. (Curiosity can monitor these noctilucent clouds with both its black-and-white navigation cameras and its color Mast Camera.)

Some of these clouds even appear a bit iridescent when the cloud particles are very similar sizes, Lemmon said, which typically happens when clouds have just formed and have grown at the same speed.

Brandon Fugal: The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch Season 2 Interview

Posted by: Alejandro Rojas 

Alejandro Rojas: When was it you first heard about the ranch and what is it that you heard?

Brandon Fugal: The ranch was first brought to my attention when I was at Barnes and Noble, back in 2006, and saw Dr. Colm Kelleher and George Knapp’s book The Hunt for the Skinwalker on the shelf. I actually bought it and read it on the weekend. I found it to be very interesting. And that was about it. 

I read the book, found it interesting, especially as it relates to being a Utah property and, you know, a very intriguing account of strange activity not far, just hours, from where I live. But upon finishing the book, I put it on the shelf and didn’t really think about it any further until 2015 when I was contacted by two of Robert Bigelow’s science advisors with the question as to whether I would be willing to entertain a potential joint venture or acquisition of the property for the purpose of advancing the research beyond what Mr. Bigelow had done for 20 years. I had developed a good relationship with these science advisors through another effort that I had been involved with a decade ago.

They had a high degree of respect for me, thankfully, and confidence that I would be a worthy successor to Mr. Bigelow’s interest in a program regarding the property. I quickly agreed. I was intrigued and quickly agreed to meet with Mr. Bigelow to discuss a potential joint venture or acquisition of the property. I flew down to Las Vegas to meet with he and others, including Dr. Kelleher, to discuss not only the history of the property and their investigation, but a new structure moving forward. Upon meeting them, I disclosed to them that I was approaching the topic as a healthy skeptic and that I had never seen a UFO, ghost, or anything of the sort. And that I believe that there was most likely a natural prosaic explanation for what had been reported in the book and on the property.

They were amused and shared with me the reality of what their investigation revealed. They also disclosed that the ranch had been part of a five-year Pentagon black budget program studying the UFO phenomenon and that, although the results of that investigation remain classified and confidential – how do I say this? The phenomenon is real. It was interesting, so we took the discussion forward. I had my attorneys work with his legal counsel and in April of 2016 I acquired the property. 

I first saw the property one week before closing on the purchase, flying in on my private helicopter with Jim Morris, who you see on the History Channel series as the ranch manager. I have had a long relationship with Jim Morris in that he was my first big commercial real estate developer client when I was 18 years old, back in 1991, when he was developing class A office buildings in our market. As a confidant and someone with military experience, I felt it was important to bring him with me to inspect the property for the first time and establish this new phase of ownership and investigation.

He also was very skeptical and had never seen anything unusual in his life that would qualify as a UFO sighting or paranormal experience. He has had a special relationship with the Indian tribes spanning decades, raising millions of dollars for scholarships and providing financial aid,  and his great respect for the Native American people has been a key part of our community engagement.

Rojas: So are you still as skeptical as you were about something unusual going on at the ranch?

Fugal: No. So people ask me all the time whether I am now a believer based on what we have seen and recorded during my ownership of the ranch. The honest, most direct answer I can provide is that I am not a believer. I am an experiencer. I know for a fact that it is real and have witnessed with my own eyes, with other credible witnesses at my side, what can only be described as daylight sightings of exotic craft over Skinwalker Ranch.

Rojas: Do you mind describing one of those incidents?

Fugal: Yeah. You bet. For the first six months of my ownership and stewardship of the property, I did not personally witness or see anything unusual. But, six months into our investigation, I had an experience while entertaining a visiting dignitary and his security detail that involved an undeniable sighting of what can only be described as a 40 to 50 foot long silver, grayish disc-like object that performed maneuvers that were stunning and defy conventional explanation.

This was in broad daylight with multiple witnesses present. During that same afternoon, we experienced everything from our smartphones being completely drained from about 80% charge to zero to other electromagnetic anomalies, even acute medical episodes that attended the incidents that occurred on that fateful day.

Rojas: Lue Elizondo, who worked on that Pentagon program that you had referred to earlier had stated that a lot of the pushback in the Department of Defense (DoD), and one of the main reasons they kind of pared it down to a UFO project, as opposed to the other paranormal phenomenon that they were looking at, is that there were a lot of insiders who felt what they were dealing with was demonic. Do you believe that there’s anything angelic or demonic related to the phenomenon going on at the ranch?

Fugal: Good question. I am asked on a daily basis whether I believe that what we are observing is extraterrestrial, inter-dimensional, or spiritual in nature. And my honest answer is “all of the above.” I believe what we are observing and documenting involves all of the above. I think there is a spiritual aspect to what we are encountering at Skinwalker Ranch. There are definitely malevolent and benevolent forces at work and we’ve had negative experiences from time to time that have resulted in people being hospitalized. 

Rojas: Yeah. I talked with Travis Taylor about some of those incidents.

Fugal: Yeah. Travis Taylor himself. I mean, Dr. Taylor, he ended up going to the hospital with injuries that were difficult to explain.

Rojas: How did you feel about the results of the first season of the show?

Fugal: Very pleased. In fact, when we commenced filming the team for season one of the investigative series, I gave the disclaimer to the crew and the History Channel that you can’t schedule or conjure up the paranormal or strange activity. It doesn’t work that way. The phenomena witnessed on the ranch is transient in nature and unpredictable. So I was surprised when, during the first day of flying Dr. Taylor out to the ranch for the first time on the helicopter, within minutes, he and our team started seeing things happening that were unusual. And it only got more pronounced as days and weeks passed by.

We conducted a series of experiments over several months, including, rocketry, balloon, instrumented, balloon experiments, ground penetrating radar, resistivity studies, and other research. On every occasion, both our team and third-party experts and consultants involved, experienced unusual activity and events.

Rojas: When it comes to the first season of the show, is there one incident or investigation that stands out to you as being the most compelling or shocking to you?

Fugal: Yeah, the cow dying and upon investigating the body, having a number of unusual events occur. Those included multiple types of smartphones malfunctioning while in the presence of the dead animal, trifield meters going crazy, and then, upon reviewing the cameras, surveillance footage, seeing an unidentified flying object up there, above the animal, just before its death. It all combined to present some of the most compelling evidence of high strangeness on the ranch. I mean, I am often reminded that correlation is not causation. However, you cannot ignore a rapid fire combination of events, including electromagnetic anomalies, physical distress, and what can only be described as UFO activity occurring without giving it some credibility. We immediately brought to the site a veterinarian to study the animal on camera and he concluded that the animal died of stress induced pneumonia. The circumstances surrounding the rapid death of the animal and the correlating strange events continue to baffle the team. In addition, the fact that the animal carcass has remained untouched by any scavenger activity since, underscores how unusual this event.

Rojas: I’ve talked to some of the previous investigators and your investigators. Something they have in common is this thing called the, I think it’s been labeled, the hitchhiker phenomenon, where when you go to the ranch and have an experience, sometimes they’re having unusual experiences after that, in their own homes. Have you experienced that?

Fugal: No, thankfully I have not had that experience, personally. But I do know members of my team and visitors that have had that experience. Strange activity following them home and even terrorizing their family.

Rojas: I’ve even got to talk to a couple of the spouses who are not happy about that, the weirdness that they’ve experienced after these guys would come home.

Fugal: Well, it’s a known fact that numerous participants, including military operatives, refuse to ever set foot on the property again due to the negative experiences that they have had, including phenomena following them home. Even Mr. Bigelow has had experiences that have followed him, resulting in his refusal to ever visit the property ever again.

Rojas: Wow. So, season two. I know Dr. Taylor’s very excited about what they have found and been able to record for season two. Can you tell us a little bit about the amount of compelling stuff that we’ll be seeing in season two of the show?

Fugal: Absolutely. What you will see is a definite progression regarding our efforts and investigation. We take more aggressive measures to study not only what is below, but above the ranch with this new season, and bring to bear our advanced instrumentation in service to learning the secret of Skinwalker Ranch.

Rojas: I guess my last question, because we’re about out of time, is, how do your colleagues feel? How have they reacted to you buying this ranch and participating in this sort of research?

Fugal: The business community has been surprisingly supportive and I have had a number of executives reach out to me privately with their own experiences. I never intended to reveal my identity as owner of the most infamous, scientifically studied paranormal hot spot on the planet. But I elected to go public last year in order to present the fully transparent account of our investigation. And my stewardship, even though the effort at Skywalker ranch is a dramatic departure from what I focus on 95% of the time in my conventional business efforts, it is an inspiring and intriguing part of my life.
