Une étoile sœur du Soleil identifiée par une équipe d'astronomes

Recherchés depuis longtemps dans la Galaxie, les frères et sœurs du Soleil nés voici plus de 4,5 milliards d’années ont jusqu’ici échappé aux astronomes. Une équipe de chercheurs emmenée par Ivan Ramirez assure, cependant, avoir identifié un premier cas dans la constellation d’Hercule, à quelque 110 années-lumière de nous. Débusquer ces étoiles possédant une abondance de certains éléments chimiques identique à celle du Soleil peut nous éclairer sur la genèse de notre Système solaire, voire sur l’apparition de la vie.

Décrite comme étant 15 % plus massive que le Soleil, HD 162826 est vraisemblablement née dans le même nuage moléculaire que notre étoile voilà plus de 4,5 milliards d’années.

Né voici plus de 4,5 milliards d’années au sein d’un vaste nuage moléculaire — vraisemblablement sous l’impulsion d’une supernova, probable génitrice baptisée Coatilcue comme la mère des dieux et déesse de la terre chez les Aztèques —, le Soleil ne fut naturellement pas la seule étoile à y voir le jour, à l’image de ce qui est observé ailleurs dans les nébuleuses de notre Galaxie. Désignés amas ouvert, ils sont nombreux dans la Voie lactée à essaimer parcimonieusement leur population de jeunes étoiles. Parmi les plus célèbres et visibles à l’oeil  nu, on peut citer les Pléiades (M45), l’amas de Ptolémée (M7) ou de la Ruche (M44). Certaine de ces fratries ne comptent que quelques centaines d’étoiles, tandis que d’autres en arborent fièrement plusieurs milliers. À plus ou moins long terme, toutes les familles se désunissent. Un sort auquel, bien sûr, notre étoile (une naine jaune ) et tous ses frères et sœurs n’ont pas échappé.

L’amas Messier6 7(M67) — cas particulier d’amas ouvert dans la constellation  du Cancer composé d’étoiles du même âge que le Soleil — a longtemps été suspecté d’abriter des congénères du Soleil. Mais de récents travaux réfutent cette hypothèse. Après des années de recherches, une équipe d’astrophysiciens apporte les preuves tangibles de l’identification d’une étoile qui serait issue du même nid que le Soleil.

Sur les traces des frères et des sœurs du Soleil

En quête des origines, les astronomes s’interrogent sur l’environnement dans lequel baignait notre jeune Soleil. Une période déterminante et très animée qui a d’abord vu naître rapidement les planètes, puis la vie apparaître à la surface de l’une d’elles. Pour Ivan Ramirez (université du Texas à Austin), astrophysicien sur les traces des étoiles issues du même nid que la nôtre, « nous voulons savoir où nous sommes nés », car « si nous pouvons comprendre dans quelle partie de la Galaxie le Soleil s’est formé, nous pouvons contraindre les conditions [qui régnaient] dans le Système solaire primitif. Cela pourrait nous aider à comprendre pourquoi nous sommes là ».

À l’image de ce qui se produit actuellement dans G15.68-0.28, surnommé la « bulle carrée » (au centre), notre étoile et ses nombreux frères et sœurs sont nés après l’explosion d’une supernova au sein du nuage moléculaire parent, lequel est recherché par les astronomes (ou du moins ce qu’il en reste). © Spitzer, Nasa, CNRS

Par ailleurs, le chercheur n’exclut pas que ces congénères aient pu, eux aussi, connaître un destin comparable à celui de notre Système solaire. « Les frères et les sœurs du Soleil sont des candidats clés à la recherche de la vie extraterrestre . » En effet, combien de ces étoiles possèdent une ou plusieurs  planètes habitables ? Y a-t-il eu des échanges entre les systèmes planétaires ? Des comètes ou météorites (parfois des morceaux arrachés à la Terre primitive) ont-elles migré d’un milieu à un autre ? Autant de questions en suspens qui intéressent les scientifiques.

Une sœur identifiée dans la constellation d’Hercule

Dans l’article à paraître dans la revue The Astrophysical Journal, l’équipe de chercheurs décline l’identité, émaillée de solides arguments, d’une étoile sœur de notre Soleil. Un premier cas débusqué dans la même province galactique que nous, à 110 années-lumière de distance. Cette recherche a nécessité des outils d’observation très sensibles, comme le spectroscope à haute résolution qui équipe le télescope Harlan J. Smith à l’observatoire McDonald (Texas). Sur les 30 candidates patiemment traquées (7 le furent dans le ciel austral avec le télescope Magellan à l’observatoire de Las Campanas, Chili), l’équipe n’en retient qu’une : HD 162826 (également HR 6669 ou SAO 47009). Observable dans une paire de jumelles en direction de l’un des bras de la constellation d’Hercule, l’étoile est décrite comme étant 15 % plus massive que le Soleil.

Pour mettre la main sur les frères de notre Soleil, charge revient aux astrophysiciens de retrouver une même abondance en éléments chimiques parmi les étoiles sélectionnées. Pour l’équipe qui signe la découverte, il est capital de « se concentrer sur certains éléments chimiques clés ». À cet égard, la variation des abondances de baryum et d’yttrium est considérée comme déterminante. Un facteur susceptible de trahir sa région d’origine, la localisation du nuage moléculaire (ou de ce qu'il en reste).

Par ailleurs, pour affiner les profils, il incombe aux chercheurs de déterminer Par ailleurs, pour affiner les profils, il incombe aux chercheurs de déterminer les routes qu’elles empruntent, leurs orbites dans la Galaxie. Aussi le satellite Gaia leur sera-t-il d’une aide précieuse dans un avenir proche pour débusquer et caractériser les mouvements de ces étoiles situées au-delà de notre voisinage (110 années-lumière de nous, cela reste assez proche), dans toutes les directions. Suivie durant 15 ans par les chasseurs d’exoplanètes, HD 162826 apparaît exempte de Jupiter chaudes, voire de planètes géantes. Mais les chercheurs estiment que cela n’enlève rien à la possibilité que des planètes rocheuses puissent y exister.

Time Travel, The 1000 Year old Ming Dynasty, Swiss made Watch Found in tomb

(Before It's News)

Archaeologists are stumped after finding a 1000-year-old Swiss watch in an ancient tomb that was sealed more than 600 years ago.

They believed they were the first to visit the Ming dynasty grave in Shangsi, southern China, since its occupant’s funeral.

But inside they uncovered a miniature watch in the shape of a ring marked ‘Swiss’ that is thought to be just a century old.

The mysterious timepiece was encrusted in mud and rock and had stopped at 10:06 am.

Watches were not around at the time of the Ming Dynasty and Switzerland did not even exist as a country, an expert pointed out.

The archaeologists were filming a documentary with two journalists when they made the puzzling discovery.

‘When we tried to remove the soil wrapped around the coffin, suddenly a piece of rock dropped off and hit the ground with metallic sound,’ said Jiang Yanyu, former curator of the Guangxi Museum.

Bob Lazar still defends Area 51 UFO info 25 years later

KLAS investigative reporter George Knapp introduced the world to the top secret military installation known as Area 51 when he interviewed Bob Lazar twenty-five years ago. On the anniversary of that interview, Knapp convinced Lazar to come to Las Vegas to discuss Area 51 again, and he even toured the Area 51 exhibit at the National Atomic Testing Museum.

In 1989, Lazar claimed he worked on reverse-engineering alien technology at a secret facility called S-4 that was built into a mountainside just south of Area 51′s main site. He alleges he was booted from working at Area 51 after it was discovered that he had leaked information to friends, informing them of where they could watch test flights of the advanced extraterrestrial technology on which he was working. Critics dismiss his claims, citing the lack of supporting evidence, including the lack of employment and education records. But Lazar, who asserts the government erased his records, stands by his claims.

The CIA only recently declassified Area 51. NBC News contacted Lazar for a statement. But he was less than impressed with the news. He commented, “That’s a minuscule baby step forward . . . Maybe a decade from now they’ll acknowledge there’s an S-4.”

Although Lazar’s story is the same twenty-five years after his initial interview with Knapp, he really doesn’t care if anyone believe him or not. He is not trying to convince anyone, and he has tried to leave UFOs in his past. In the recent interview, he explains to Knapp:

Look, I’m not out there giving UFO lectures, producing tapes. This is not a business of mine. I am trying to run a scientific business, and if I’m the UFO guy, it makes it really difficult, it is to my benefit that people don’t believe the story.

Area 51 warning signs.

Lazar and his wife currently run a scientific equipment and supply store in Michigan called United Nuclear.

There is no questioning the extraterrestrial business at Area 51 in Lazar’s mind. As he tells Knapp, “Look, I know what happened is true. There is no doubt. Period.”

UFO mania: What is behind Norway's Hessdalen lights ?

The valley is home to mysterious hovering orbs of light that have been sighted for more than a century.

Particularly puzzling is the wide variety of different lights that seem to appear, including some that are the size of a car, some that flash blue and white and some that seem to zip around at high speed before fading. Some of the lights have the appearance of metallic objects, leading to speculation that they could even be extraterrestrial in nature.

A recent study in to the phenomenon however has revealed that the lights are more likely to have a geological origin. The glowing effect, far from being the product of spirits or aliens, is instead believed to be the result of air turning in to plasma. The unique properties of the valley, including copper-rich rocks on one side and iron-rich rocks on the other, provide the potential to make the whole place act like a giant battery.

With the phenomenon occurring more frequently during periods in which the Northern Lights are visible over the region, researchers have also speculated that the solar wind could be providing the necessary charge to energize the plasma.

Whether this explanation will discourage people from visiting the valley in an effort to catch a glimpse of the lights for themselves however, remains to be seen. 

UPDATE 3-Russia targets space station project in retaliation for U.S. sanctions

* Senior official says U.S. sanctions hurt Russian space industry

* Wants guarantee Russian engine imports not be used for U.S. military

* Says it not satisfied by talks will close GPS sites in Russia (Adds comment from United Launch Alliance)

By Alissa de Carbonnel

MOSCOW, May 13 (Reuters) - Russia cast doubt on the long-term future of the International Space Station, a showcase of post-Cold War cooperation, as it retaliated on Tuesday against U.S. sanctions over Ukraine.

Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin said Moscow would reject a U.S. request to prolong the orbiting station's use beyond 2020. It will also bar Washington from using Russian-made rocket engines to launch military satellites.

Moscow took the action, which also included suspending operation of GPS satellite navigation system sites on its territory from June, in response to U.S. plans to deny export licences for high-technology items that could help the Russian military.

"We are very concerned about continuing to develop high-tech projects with such an unreliable partner as the United States, which politicises everything," Rogozin told a news conference.

Washington wants to keep the $100 billion, 15 nation space station project in use until at least 2024, four years beyond the previous target.

Moscow's plan to part ways on a project which was supposed to end the "space race" underlines how relations between the former Cold War rivals have deteriorated since Russia annexed Ukraine's Crimea region in March.

Since the end of the U.S. Space Shuttle project, Russian Soyuz spacecraft have been the only way astronauts can get to the space station, whose crews include mostly Americans and Russians, as well as visitors from other countries.

At a time when Moscow is struggling to reform its accident-plagued space programme, Rogozin said U.S. plans to deny export licences for some high-technology items were a blow to Russian industry. "These sanctions are out of place and inappropriate," Rogozin said. "We have enough of our own problems."

Moscow's response would affect NK-33 and RD-180 engines which Russia supplies to the United States, Rogozin said. "We are ready to deliver these engines but on one condition that they will not be used to launch military satellites," he said.

RD-180 engines are used to boost Atlas 5 rockets manufactured by United Launch Alliance (ULA), a partnership of Lockheed Martin and Boeing that holds a virtual monopoly on launching U.S. military satellites.

ULA on Tuesday said it was not yet aware of any restrictions and hopes talks will resolve any issues that do arise. It added that it can use other launch vehicles and has a two-year supply of engines to smooth over any transition.

"ULA and our Department of Defense customers have always prepared contingency plans in the event of a supply disruption," ULA spokeswoman Jessica Rye said in a statement.

Rogozin said Moscow was planning "strategic changes" in its space industry after 2020 and aims to use money and  "intellectual resources" that now go to the space station for a "a project with more prospects".

He suggested Russia could use the station without the United States, saying: "The Russian segment can exist independently from the American one. The U.S. one cannot."

The U.S. space agency NASA is working with companies to develop space taxis with the goal of restoring U.S. transport to the station by 2017. The United States currently pays Russia more than $60 million per person to fly its astronauts up.

Rogozin said Russia will suspend the operation of 11 GPS sites on its territory from June and seek talks with Washington on opening similar sites in the United States for Russia's own satellite navigation system, Glonass.

He threatened the permanent closure of the GPS sites in Russia if that is not agreed by September. Rogozin said the suspension of the sites would not affect everyday operations of the GPS system in Russia, where it is used by millions of Russians for navigation on their smartphones and in their cars.

The upheaval in Ukraine - where the United States says Russia is backing separatists and the Kremlin accuses Washington of helping protesters to topple a Moscow-friendly president in February, has led to the worst East-West crisis since the 1991  collapse of the Soviet Union.

In addition to the high-tech sector sanctions, the United States has imposed visa bans and assets freezes on officials and lawmakers and targeted companies with links to President Vladimir Putin. The European Union has also imposed sanctions.

The Russian Foreign Ministry said earlier on Tuesday that the latest EU measures were an "exhausted, trite approach" that would only deepen discord and hamper efforts to defuse the crisis in Ukraine.

Alien Abduction Memories Surface Under Medical Hypnosis

    by Paul Schroeder

UFO mania: Richard French, Ex-Air Force Lt. Colonel, ‘It Was A UFO And . . . There Were Aliens...

When Air Force Lt. Col. Richard French was an alleged lead investigator of Project Blue Book in the 1950s, his job was to shoot down false reports of UFOs.

Given his job, French never dreamed he’d end up in Newfoundland one day watching what appeared to him to be two extraterrestrials performing repairs on a submerged, unknown circular craft.

In Washington, D.C., recently, the 83-year-old retired officer testified at the Citizen Hearing On Disclosure panel of six former members of Congress about his work as a UFO debunker in 1952.

French recounted how the Newfoundland incident unfolded decades ago, in the early 1950s, after two UFOs were seen by many people off the coast of St. John’s. French’s superiors ordered him to look into the situation.

“They said, ‘We have a UFO report and we want you to investigate it,’ and that was standard for what I was doing,” French told The Huffington Post. “They told me there were two of them involved and that they were deep under the water, after entering the water doing roughly 100 miles an hour.

“There were a lot of people assembled on the wharf, at least 100 standing around just looking in amazement at the water, including several local policemen.”

Watch Ret. Air Force Lt. Col. Richard French at the Citizen Hearing On Disclosure:

French recalls the water was very clear and he could see two circular craft, each one about 18 feet in diameter and approximately 3 feet thick. He said the two objects were floating below the surface of the water, a couple of feet apart, not more than 20 feet from the shore. And he saw two beings in the water near the ships.

“The first thing I saw was the UFOs, and it was apparent to me that they were doing something to the craft, and I couldn’t really tell what because they were on the bottom side of it and not visible to me except when they would occasionally get over to the side where I could see them. The water was fairly clear and I could see without any trouble. They weren’t down at the bottom of the [seabed] — they were about half way down.”

French told HuffPost that the two beings he saw “were about 2 or 3 feet tall, light grey in color, very thin, long arms with either two or three fingers. The top of their heads was much wider than their jaw line, their eyes were very slanted and you couldn’t see pupils in them. They looked the way [aliens] have been depicted in motion pictures.”

As the Air Force UFO debunker watched, he claims one of the ships began to rise out of the water.

“When it hit the [surface], it was going about 100 miles an hour. It then accelerated to somewhere in the neighborhood of 2,500 to 3,000 miles an hour and disappeared. It returned about 20 minutes later, slowed down to nearly a stop before it entered the water, then went down, and the two [beings] worked together.

“It took them about 20 minutes and then the two ships departed together, again slow when they exited the water, and immediately they sped up to a very high speed. I believe they were repairing [the ship] and tested that the repairs had been adequate, and then away they went.”

Watch French talk about his job as an Air Force UFO debunker:

Ironically, French’s job at the time — as a Project Blue Book investigator — was to debunk UFOs. So, what kind of report did he file with Blue Book about this case he had personally witnessed?

“Needless to say, it was a fictitious report, as all of them were. I didn’t really say that they were UFOs — I said that there was something we didn’t know — some type of foreign or unrecognizable vehicle there. In other words, I weasel-worded it.

“Oh, I think without a doubt it was a UFO and I think there were aliens aboard it. There’s no question in my mind that was exactly what it was, and my duty was to debunk the story, so I did my best to do so.”

The events of the Newfoundland UFO and alleged aliens took place some 60 years ago, in the days before everyone had a digital camera or image-capture cell phone in their pocket. Despite the fact that there are no photographs to substantiate the report, it’s still an amazing story.

So what are we to make of this? Because it’s not the first time French has stirred up the UFO-ET pot.

Did Aliens Leave Their Mark At A Station In The Australian Outback?

(Before It's News)

Muckaty Station, 110km north of Tennant Creek, has been home to various UFO sightings over the years but now an unexplained marking has appeared on the land. Station manager Ray Aylett has said he thinks the spot is a crop circle. “There’s no other explanation,” he said.

Muckaty Station, 110km north of Tennant Creek, has been home to various UFO sightings over the years but now an unexplained marking has appeared on the land.

Station manager Ray Aylett has said he thinks the spot – pictured on our front page today – is a crop circle.

“There’s no other explanation,” he said.

“Other ground around there is rough and in the circle it’s all smooth.”

Mr Aylett said he had seen UFOs at Muckaty Station for many years but they have never bothered to visit him.

“I’ve been trying to get them to come and have a beer, a steak and a yarn, but the bastards won’t come near me.”

On the Tuesday after Easter, Mr Aylett said he saw what looked like rectangular clouds in the sky as he drove back to the station from Elliott.

Prior to the crop circle sighting, the remote station had been drenched by rain, making the road inaccessible in the wet, but once it dried out the strange shape became clear.

He said his bore runner Kym Bott didn’t notice the circle when he went out there on his motorbike but two weeks later on April 7 the crop circle was discovered when Mr Aylett went to grade the road.

When he was out mustering he flew over the area to see if there were any other circles around, but found only one.

He is not sure if the aliens are trying to make contact, but whenever he spots UFOs Mr Aylett is out with his torch waving hello.

White Song Eagle An Extraordinary Alien Abductee

(Before It's News)

White Song Eagle An Extraordinary Abductee

Donald Worley, Alien Abduction Researcher

This is the true story of White Song Eagle who was an extraordinary abductee. She stands rejected and ignored by today’s orthodox, materialistic society. Are we missing something of vital importance here in what we can learn from her experience?

White Song lived on a wooded hill west of Indianapolis, Indiana, USA. Under the trees was a large tepee. Actually my words are quite inadequate in bringing you a true picture of this woman who had done 30 parachute jumps due to her compulsion to fly.

I can never capture the drama, pathos, or the joy of it all so let me resort to White Song’s own direct words from my taped interrogations and extensive written responses.

White Song began by explaining one of the alien groups which visited her. She said, “The blue troop can telescope their heads up and down. This happened one night when they were taking my sister Nell and I out of the house and the blue troop captain heard something.”

“Everything stopped and his head rose up and down. I do not know, maybe 4 to 6 inches. Nell and I looked at each other and grinned. Later at home, we played on the floor and we pretended and tried to do it like they had. Our parents were amused at our make believe.”

This was just one of many startling utterances coming from the lips of this attractive 40 year old white American female who claims Indian ancestry. In fact it all gets even more mind boggling when we get into contact with the aliens she calls the Star People, the Sasquatch people, or things such as deceased people, a Brownie, a wood sprite, blue orbs and red monitor devices.

White Song knew she was very different from everyone else and it is only recently that some of the profound mysteries about her life began to unravel. I did not try to count all her abductions because there are so many.

One of the first abductions White Song recalled occurred as a child when a large craft stopped above the garage as she played in her sandbox near Huntington, Indiana. This abduction resulted in a straight deep cut into the muscle of her upper leg.

In later years, this scar would help stabilize the reality of this spring abduction in April. White Song could not recall what happened on board the craft, but does remember the haze shrouded bun-shaped UFO hovering out by the road. The reality of the experience was grounded in the physical evidence that remained behind.

White Song had just settled back into her featherbed happy that Zanna her Star Lady alien whom she had met many years ago as a baby, was back again. White Song’s love for Zanna and the Star People was boundless. It was an abiding, trust and faith that apparently surmounts the great difficulties that are the natural inheritance of one who encounters forces of such life changing orientation.

In the April abduction, the UFO left behind physical evidence of its presence. A short metal telephone circuit that used to stand up was smashed down. The grass turned brown and snow would immediately melt in a circular area in the spot where it hovered.

One unusual feature about this abduction was the surprise witness. It turned out a neighbor by the name of Mr. Lowery, who was recently retired and lived across the cemetery from the road site, happened to be up to go to the bathroom and was attracted by the dark low hovering oval object in the sky with lights shining down. Mr. Lowery watched the strange object for about 5 minutes and than went back to bed wondering what he had seen.

White Song described the alien visits. She said, “They would come to our farmhouse and float us down the stairs at night. Momma would not believe us and said we were just dreaming. It was real bright inside the ship you know, like operating room lights. Your eyes water and they hurt.”

White Song continued. “When I was able to see clearly, I saw the big dark eyes of the aliens. They go from the inside, and it is not a reflection. It is they just sparkle from the inside out like Christmas tree lights. Then I could slowly see their heads which were white, and I was frightened and said, ‘Take your masks off’ but they said they were not wearing masks.”

White Song said, “Then they whisked me out of my pajamas and floated my sister Nell and me up on these tables.”

White Song explained her younger sister Nell was usually taken to another room. She said Nell only had a vague recollection of UFO dreams but had mental difficulties at age 5, developed tremors, and was obsessed with fear the aliens were coming again, and received medical attention in the form of brainwave tests, etc.

I asked White Song if aliens spoke. She described alien speech this way. She said, “Their voices are slow and they speak telepathically. At first I tried to talk to them vocally but they did not like it and asked me to ‘think to them’ and I did. They told me I was a seer and they found me by my light and asked me to help them with my gift.”

The alien eyes were huge and beautiful according to White Song. She said they blinked funny in an unexpected way. She said, “The lower lid comes up halfway and meets the upper lid coming down. It gives them an insect or mechanical expression.”

White Song described her alien friends. She said, “They are a slender people with thin wispy necks. I thought she had on white gloves until she wiggled them and I got a whiff of them – whew! It smelled like dirty feet to me.”

White Song said, “When they petted my long hair it stuck to their hands and pulled out. I am not sure if they wore clothes. It seems I saw a heavy felt-like material on her shoulders sometime. I think I asked Zanna to undress like they always requested of me. I do not recall her doing so.”

The aliens breathed like people according to White Song. She explained, “Yes, I saw Zanna’s chest go up and down in breath. But I also saw the aliens zip forward then vanish, then reappear farther on, and then do it again. I couldn’t handle this and clamored to get off the table.”

I asked White Song if the aliens were transparent. She responded, “No, I don’t recall seeing through any of them. The blue troop I just know wears blue uniforms. Their skin is grey. Zanna and the others looked white. They have long slender three fingered hands that they held our hands with at times.”

“Once Zanna became excited when she found my fingernails that momma had painted red,” White Song said. “I had to explain this nail polish to her.”

White Song continued, “The aliens were about the same body proportion as the doctors on the ship only thinner. Most were about 4 feet tall. There were also some aliens about 6 feet tall and a frightening uncommunicative frog faced bunch that I think got me by mistake once.”

White Song explained more about the table on board the UFO. She said, “I was usually on the table. I was laid down for some operations. I hesitate to say all as there is so much to remember yet. I feel they held me by their will power. As long as I cooperated I was not bothered this way, but if I could not control my fear they held me by this force.”

White Song said, “When I was laying down for the first operation I was out of control and their freezing my mobility traumatized me even more so I promised not to fight them. Then they released me, but when they came at me with that nose needle, or whatever it was, I just couldn’t lay there and let them do it.”

Later on White Song also found some alien abduction books which proved helpful in her quest for information. She said, “When I saw that face on the cover of Communion by Whitley Strieber, I swept it up in my arms like a badly needed friend and took it home to devour it. I read it and gradually, page by page, the book pricked my memory. I was excited to the bone to have some answers finally.”

Complexity – A Complicated Universe – Chemistry to Biology – DNA – Part2

Analysis of the Atacama humanoid alien

We posted earlier this week a story outlining the origin of the alleged tiny ET creature to be showcased in Dr. Steven Greer’s Sirius documentary to be released later this month. We chronicled how this creature was none other than a case known in Chile as the La Noria ET from 2003; the name comes from a ghost town of the nitrate era in this part of Chile’s northern Atacama Desert region. We left the story sort of in a cliff hanger as to what happened to it once it was acquired by a Spanish businessman from Barcelona.

We’ve discovered since a number of things, including the original 7 minute TV program about the case aired by Chile’s Megavisión Channel V shortly after the creature’s discovery was published in the local press. You can now see this program on YouTube in Spanish, and it shows exactly the location where the creature was discovered, as well as interviews with Oscar Muñoz, the man who found it, Alejandro Dávalos, the first one to photograph the being, and well known Chilean ufologist Rodrigo Fuenzalida, director of the AION UFO research group.

It’s clear that this program was done in the early stages of the La Noria case, when the little being was owned by the pub owner from the provincial capital of Iquique. He didn’t appear in the program because he probably wanted money to allow filming the creature (that was his modus operandi according to the newspaper La Estrella de Arica) and the TV channel didn’t go along with it.

More importantly, we discovered who bought the creature and what happened once it left Chile and traveled to Spain, where it has remained ever since. It turns out that its owner is Ramón Navia-Osorio, a wealthy entrepreneur from Barcelona who runs the IIEE (Spanish acronym for Institute for Exobiological Investigation and Study), a UFO organization formed in 1975. Navia-Osorio was a member for many years prior to becoming the group’s director. We found a very long report, “El Ser Antropomórfico de Atacama” (The Anthropomorphic Being from Atacama), written by Navia-Osorio himself and posted by Julio González in “Realidad OVNI” (UFO Reality), a large UFO news website from Argentina specialized in cases from Latin America, just six days ago, on April 5, 2013.

Navia-Osorio begins by recounting his trip to northern Chile ten years earlier, in late 2003, and how he met Oscar Muñoz in the ghost town of La Noria itself, and later Alejandro Dávalos, the young worker who took the first photos of the creature, and other people from the area. The contact between the Chilean and Spanish ufologists was Raúl Núñez Gálvez, a well known Chilean ufologist who lived in Spain for many years and was a member of the IIEE He, too, traveled with Navia-Osorio to La Noria. The Spanish researcher provides initially some additional historical and paranormal details about this area with ghost towns from the booming nitrate industry of the late 19th century. One curious historical detail is that Charles Darwin, the famous father of the theory of evolution, visited La Noria in 1835. We also mentioned in our previous story that paranormal activities seem to be common in this area, and the Spanish researcher mentions this fact as well. He specifically claims that one of the things seen by the locals are ghostly apparitions of 19th century funeral processions, which then vanish.

Navia-Osorio also provides the name of the Iquique pub owner, Ricardo Clotet, explaining that the original transaction with Oscar Muñoz took place through his brother, Ricardo Muñoz, who in turn contacted Clotet. The details of the transaction between Clotet and Navia-Osorio are not discussed, but the rumor in Chile was that it was a fairly substantial sum, probably tens of time higher than the paltry amount of less than $100 that Clotet paid Muñoz. In any event, by 2004 the transaction took place and the creature was moved to Spain.

To his credit, Ramón Navia-Osorio made an earnest effort to have the creature analyzed by reputable scientists and medical doctors, although most of them seemed reluctant to get involved and specially to put their names in a signed report with conclusions. On July 5, 2004, the creature was presented to the Royal Academy of Sciences in Barcelona, where it was examined by several doctors, biologists and zoologists whose names are given in Navia-Osorio’s report. He complains about the close-minded attitude of many of the scientists from the prestigious Complutense University in Madrid and other academic institutions. He claims that some of these professors would admit off-the-record that there was something truly unique and strange about the creature, but would refuse to state the same thing in a written report or even in an audio or video recording.

Navia-Osorio provides the text of two scientific documents in his report. The first one is the “radiological” report signed by doctors E. Feijoo, C. López and J. M. Colomer. It basically consists on a detailed description of the creature itself but it obviously avoids giving any conclusion about its origin. It is clear from this report, however, that the creature is not a crude hoax as was cavalierly suggested by a Complutense scientist who suggested (while remaining anonymous) that the whole thing was a hoax made with bird bones.

The second transcribed document is a forensic medical report written by Dr. Francisco Etxeberria Gabilondo, a professor of Legal and Forensic Medicine in the Basque Country University, and specialist in Forensic Anthropology with the Complutense University, who wrote the study at the bequest of the IIEE (probably for a fee, although that is not mentioned). Dr. Etxeberria wrote that, “it’s a mummified body with all typical the characteristics of a fetus. The body has a length of 14 cm and displays all the structures and anatomical links normal for the head, trunk and extremities.” He continues with a detailed description of each part of the body and finally gives his overall view:

“Taken as a whole, the proportions of the anatomical structures (skeleton and softer parts), the level of development of each one of its bones and its macroscopic configuration, allow us to interpret it without any shadow of doubt as a completely normal mummified fetus…Both based on the total length of the body as well as the length of the bones, it can be estimated that it’s a fetus in an approximate gestation period close to 15 weeks.”

The next question is how did this fetus, if that’s what it is, showed up in the abandoned area near the old church of La Noria where it was found by Oscar Muñoz wrapped in a cloth. Obviously nobody knows but Dr. Etxeberria speculates that it could a bit old but probably not an ancient mummified fetus. He explains that due to their lack of “bacterial flora in the digestive tube, which is where the putrefaction of corpses begin,” and other factors, fetuses can be preserved quite well. To this we must add the environmental conditions of the Atacama region, which is the driest desert on Earth, and is perfect for the preservation of objects of various kinds. In fact, the area near the city of Arica is famous for its 10,000-year old mummies far older than those from Egypt, but Dr. Etxeberria explains that it’s unlikely to be very ancient, meaning by that hundreds of years.

The Greer connection

The final part of Ramón Navia-Osorio’s long article describes briefly how Dr. Steven Greer became involved in this case. The link was made by Dr. Bravo, a female doctor from Dallas, who brought Dr. Greer to the IIEE office in Barcelona. The Spanish researcher mentions here some of the claims contained in the promotional material released by the producers of the Sirius documentary, including DNA sequencing which allegedly found the Atacama being had an “unknown classification.” Until we see the film, we can’t judge how valid is the scientific evidence presented.

That, in essence, is the saga of the little mummy from its early days in the Chilean ghost town to Spain’s scientific labs. In his final conclusions, Navia-Osorio writes that, “we are not among those who claim that it’s an ET, although morphologically speaking it really looks similar to some of them. We can’t deny that, but before asserting it we must consider other possibilities. In summary, we don’t have conclusive proof that can determine the nature of the specimen.”

Pope says baptism for all - even Martians

Vatican City: Pope Francis has declared everyone has the right to be baptised, even aliens should they come knocking on the church's door.

Christians cannot "close the door" to all those who seek baptism even if they are "green men, with a long nose and big ears, like children draw," the pope said at his daily mass on Monday, according to Vatican Radio.

"If tomorrow, for example, an expedition of Martians arrives and some of them come to us ... and if one of them says: 'Me, I want to be baptised!', what would happen?" Francis said in another display of his lively sense of humour.

The Argentine pontiff known for his down-to-earth style has often used colourful and humorous expressions to make his points on the direction of the Roman Catholic Church.

On baptism Francis has stressed that it should not be refused, especially to children whose parents may be breaking Church rules such as living together as an unmarried couple.

Open letter to the U.S. Air Force regarding allegations of UFO disinformation

I sent this letter to the U.S. Air Force on July 11, 2013 to solicit an official response to allegations by ex-special agent Richard Doty of the U.S. Air Force Office of Special Investigations (AFOSI) that he participated in spreading UFO disinformation. Among his claims, he says he broke into a civilian’s home, created hoaxed documents, and lied to two U.S. Senators. Some of these are criminal acts that he claims he committed on orders from his superiors in the AFOSI. Whether or not this is true, these acts were committed while he was an AFOSI special agent, and I believe the U.S. Air Force needs to respond.

After working with the AFOSI public affairs department on Freedom of Information Act Requests (FOIA) related to this incident, I was told I would be able to speak to someone who could give me an official response. However, once I received the documents I was told they had nothing further to say.

**********

Allegations of Criminal Misconduct

Air Force Office of Special Investigations Agent Richard Doty claims to have partaken in the acts of misinforming members of congress, breaking into the private residence of a civilian government contractor, and disseminating known forgeries of government documents while on active duty in the 1980s. Furthermore, he claims to have committed these acts on the orders of his superiors at AFOSI.

Although his claims have garnered a large amount of public attention, including having been the subject of several books (including one by New York Times Journalist Howard Blum), and were directly related to the government contractor mentioned above having been temporarily committed to a mental health facility, the U.S. Air Force has yet to comment on the veracity of his claims.

Was the U.S. Air Force involved with these criminal acts, as claimed by Doty, and if not what was done regarding his conduct?

Background

Beginning in the 1980s, Paul Bennewitz began reporting strange lights over the Manzano area of Kirtland Air Force Base, and claimed to have recorded unusual signals emanating from the base (1). Bennewitz was the owner of Thunder Scientific, a humidity company with contracts with Kirtland and several other branches of the military and government contractors (2). He believed the lights and signals were due to extraterrestrial activity (3).

According to documents retrieved from previous FOIA requests, officers at Kirtland looked at his evidence on two occasions and decided not to investigate (1)(3). Bennewitz contacted Senator Harrison Schmitt and Senator Pete Domenici, both of whom made inquiries about the status of the investigation on Bennewitz’s material to Air Force Office of Special Investigations Special Agent Richard Doty. In both cases, Agent Doty informed the senators that there was no AFOSI investigation on this matter (3)(4). Likewise, the files do show that after each review of Bennewitz’s material, it was recommended that an investigation not be initiated (1)(3). This is the extent of the material regarding Bennewitz and AFOSI in these files.

However, Richard Doty has since claimed that he lied to the senators on behalf of AFOSI, and that there was a disinformation campaign underway against Bennewitz. According to statements he has made to several associates, and on at least one national radio program, he told Bennewitz there was an investigation and he gave Bennewitz hoaxed material to support this claim (5). The first such document was given to Bennewtiz after Senator Schmitt’s inquiry, and just prior to Senator Domenici’s (3)(4)(14).

According to Doty, and witnessed by others, he continued his campaign to convince Bennewitz that he was actually experiencing extraterrestrial phenomena for several years. New Mexico state police officer Gabe Valdez claimed in interviews with me that he was present when Doty flew Bennewitz over the town of Dulce, New Mexico (6). Doty claims he convinced Bennewitz that there was an alien base under nearby Archuleta Mountain.

It was during this time that Doty claims he was ordered to break into Bennewitz’s residence. He told this to the author of a book on his disinformation activities titled, Project Beta: The Story of Paul Bennewitz, National Security, and the Creation of a Modern UFO Myth (7), and to retired U.S. Army Colonel John Alexander (8). Eventually, Bennewitz became so paranoid regarding an extraterrestrial invasion that he had to spend time in a mental institution (5).

Doty continues to spread information on UFOs and aliens he alleges to have received while working for AFOSI (5). Many of the documents he disseminated during his campaign against Bennewitz have grown into huge modern mythologies, spawning books, movies and TV shows.

Although on two occasions the Air Force has stated that documents pertaining to this matter, allegedly dispensed by Doty, are not real (9)(10), they have not spoken to whether Doty was under orders, as he claims, when he lied to the senators, broke into Bennewitz’s home, and dispensed material to Bennewitz making him believe he was under investigation. The question then is not whether the documents are hoaxes, but whether Doty hoaxed these documents under his own volition, or was ordered to do so as a part of a disinformation campaign, as he claims is the case.

If Doty was not acting under orders, this would mean he was forging government documents while he was an active AFOSI agent. In that case, AFOSI needs to respond to whether they were aware of Doty’s activities, and if so, what action was taken. It would be surprising to find AFOSI was not aware of this sort of criminal activity going on for several years by one of their agents. Doty has indicated he was demoted at one point, however, this is not documented in the military records I obtained through FOIA, nor is the reason for this demotion (11). It is also unknown whether this demotion has any relation to the apparent criminal activity related to this case.

The official AFOSI Bennewitz files

These files have been obtained separately through FOIA requests by UFO researcher and author William Moore, Citizens Against UFO Secrecy (CAUS), and Navy physicist, Bruce Maccabee.  Because of the multiple sources, and the high credibility of Dr. Maccabee and the files released by CAUS, I believe these documents to be legitimate. The USAF has informed the recipients that these are all of the files related to AFOSI and Bennewitz. I am seeking confirmation through my own pending FOIA request (Case # 2013-03291-F). [This was written prior to the fulfillment of my FOIA request, which was fulfilled August 2, 2013, and  included the same documents I reference here. View the documents I received here.]

The first document is a Multipurpose Internal OSI Form dated October 28, 1980, and signed by Major Thomas Cseh. The subject is “Alleged Sightings of Unidentified Aerial Lights in Restricted Test Range.” It states that Bennewitz contacted Doty through Major Ernest E. Edwards. Bennewitz claimed to have “knowledge and evidence of threats against Manzano Weapons Storage area.” On October 26, 1980 Doty, along with Jerry Miller, Chief Scientific Advisor for the Air Force Test and Evaluation Center at Kirtland, went to Bennewitz’s residence and conducted an interview. It is noted that Miller had experience investigating UFOs with Project Blue Book. They reviewed photographs, 8mm film, and recording tapes showing periods of high levels of electrical magnetism emitted from the Manzano/Coyote Canyon area. They noted Bennewitz also had surveillance equipment pointed at the base to record high frequencies (1).

They concluded that there were some type of “unidentified aerial objects” caught on the film, but they could not determine whether they posed a threat. They also found the electronic recording tapes to be inconclusive. They informed FTD [Foreign Technology Division] of their findings who wanted to inspect Bennewitz’s data, and briefed their command. However, it was noted that command “did not request an investigation at this time (1).”

The second file is another Multipurpose Internal OSI Form dated November 26, 1980, and also signed by Major Thomas Cseh. The subject is again, “Alleged Sightings of Unidentified Aerial Lights in Restricted Test Range.” The report describes a meeting that took place on the base on November 10, 1980, between Brigadier General William Brooksher, seven other officers, and Bennewitz. Bennewitz presented film and photographs which he believed to be of alien spacecraft, and described how he believed he was in contact with these aliens. He requested a grant to further research his interactions. One of those present, Dr. Lehman, Director of the Air Force Weapons Laboratory at Kirtland, told Bennewitz he would help him fill out paperwork to request a grant from the USAF (3).

This document then states that on November 17, Doty advised Bennewitz that AFOSI would not investigate the objects, and that they were “not in a position to evaluate the information and photographs.” It also says that on the date of the report, November 26, 1980, Doty received a phone call from Senator Harrison Schmitt inquiring about AFOSI’s role in the investigation of the sightings reported by Bennewitz. Doty advised Schmitt that AFOSI was not investigating the phenomenon and referred him to another AFOSI district. Schmitt declined and said he would check with the Secretary of the Air Force to determine the correct USAF agency to investigate the phenomena. The final note in this document is that Bennewitz had many conversations with Senator Schmitt, and Schmitt had in turn called Brigadier General Brooksher on multiple occasions regarding Bennewitz’s sightings (3).

The third document is an AFOSI communication form noting a meeting between Senator Peter Domenici and Doty regarding Bennewitz. It is signed by Colonel Frank Huey. It says that the IG [Inspector General] contacted AFOSI to advise them that Senator Domenici wanted to talk to Doty. Colonel Harvell approved the meeting, and Domenici, who was already in the IG’s office, went directly to speak to Doty. The report then says a subsequent check was made with Domenici’s aide, Mr. Tijeros, to find out what they wanted to discuss with Doty. Tijeros said they wanted to know whether AFOSI had conducted a formal investigation of Bennewitz. Tijeros was informed that there was no formal investigation. Tijeros indicated that Senator Domenici will likely make no further inquiries into the matter (4).

These three documents seem to indicate that AFOSI humored Bennewitz by examining his evidence, but did not engage in a formal investigation. Doty served as the point of contact to inform Senators Schmitt and Domenici, as well as Bennewitz, that AFOSI would not be investigating Bennewitz’s alleged alien evidence.

Richard Doty’s claims

The source for the claims I am referring to is a radio show appearance by Richard Doty on February 27, 2005. It was on a night time program called Coast to Coast AM, with a very large international listening audience. Although Doty has done many other interviews, they are almost all in print or online. Often his claims vary from one interview to another, and when pressed on this point, Doty often denies he made the statements. This includes a book he is credited as co-writing titled, Exempt from Disclosure. He claims he did not write the chapter credited to him, although his co-author notes he did sign the paperwork to authorize the book and cashed the checks for payment. Either way, I use the radio interview because it is similar to the core story he has been portraying in other interviews, and is one of the few sources with his verifiable direct statements.

According to Doty, in reference to his visit to Bennewitz’s residence with Miller on October 26, 1980, he says “The report was that this person had sufficient knowledge and the right equipment to tap into sensitive communications equipment and sensitive projects that was (sic) occurring in Kirtland.” The radio host, Art Bell responded, “Alright, somewhere in the mix of all this comes disinformation. In other words, you are going to admit tonight, I believe, that you dispensed disinformation, is that true?” To that Doty responds: “That is absolutely true.” Doty explained that this was done to protect base secrets. He said, “what we did is that we convinced him that what he was picking up wasn’t anything classified from the base, but in fact it was probably of alien origin (5).”

Doty says that Bennewitz also believed there was an alien base under Archuleta Mountain, near Dulce, New Mexico. Doty claims he worked with personnel from Ft. Carson to help perpetuate this idea. Doty explains, “We had a couple of black helicopters, and we had some things planted onto the ground around Archuleta peak, and just to convince him that what he was actually looking at, what he thought, actually was an alien base (5).”

Doty said that this disinformation campaign was an easier way to handle Bennewitz’s collection of sensitive Air Force activities than making him stop. He says, “It was easier for us to have done it that way than to get a warrant, a search warrant and a seizure warrant and seize all of his property and seize his equipment. What would that do? That would cause a lot of publicity, and the wrong type of publicity the base wanted (5).”

Bell asked Doty if he was aware that Bennewitz eventually ended up needing psychiatric care. Doty responded, “Yes, and I visited Paul a number of times.” He continued, “I was trying to convince Paul, and I went to his son to do this, that ‘hey, everything we told you before, Paul, isn’t true.’ And I explained to him why we were doing it, but he never believed me (5). “

Bell asked if he had any remorse for what happened to Bennewitz, to which Doty replied, “…it upset me what happened to Paul. I mean I went and tried to talk to Paul about it, against my commander’s orders. He told me, ‘Hey, he doesn’t have the clearance. You can’t go over there and tell him this stuff didn’t happen.’ But I did anyway, because I was concerned about Paul (5).”

Bell then asked Doty if there were other cases of UFO deception that Doty was involved with. He replied, “…pertaining to just UFOs, it was the four operations.” One of which he said was regarding researcher Linda Howe. He says, “…we invited her to Kirtland, we showed her some information pertaining to UFOs, we showed her a document and tried to bring her in and hook her on a hook, and she took it initially and then we carried on a contact with her over a period of time, meeting her at different locations and providing her with some information.” This is important because Doty has denied bringing Howe to Kirtland in the past, and has also denied showing her anything on UFOs. However, according to Howe, the document she was shown is very similar to a hoaxed document given to another UFO researcher, William Moore (5).

Doty elaborated on his association with Moore, saying, “Bill Moore was recruited by another person within Defense Intelligence Agency to provide disinformation.” In a letter to the editor in the July 15, 2000 issue of Saucer Smear, Doty wrote, “Moore was a coded source for OSI. That means he provided intelligence information that was documented. He was paid for his information. Moore was used to provide disinformation to Ufologists (12).” Although the details change, to my knowledge, Doty has never denied Moore’s involvement (5).

Finally, in regards to all of this, Doty claims in the radio program, “I followed orders. Everything we did was following orders (5).”

Although Doty claims the Bennewitz affair was disinformation, he also claims he was briefed on UFOs when he joined AFOSI. He says the briefing stated, among other things, “[Roswell] was real. We had an alien. It was in captivity up until 1951. He was kept at Kirtland and he was kept at Los Alamos. He died in the later part of 1951.” Doty also claims the alien liked strawberry ice cream and Tibetan music (5).

Hoaxed documents

This section will review hoaxed documents linked to Doty, most of which are connected to the events we have reviewed thus far. We will also review one document that surfaced just prior to Doty’s interactions with Bennewitz. The significance here is that if Doty is to be believed, these documents, which have had a significant impact on the UFO research community and society in general, are official fabrications of the USAF. If these documents were not created in a disinformation campaign, then Doty either alone or with others, participated in hoaxing official government documents.

Moore, the UFO researcher mentioned in the radio program, was co-author, with Charles Berlitz, of the book The Roswell Incident, which was published in 1980. It was the first book on the alleged UFO crash in Roswell. He says that in 1980 he was approached by a high level intelligence official, the same person Doty referenced earlier as working in the DIA, who said he and others knew the truth about UFOs and wanted the information out, so they would help him with his work. Moore gave this man the code name “Falcon” and says the he was told he would work primarily through a liaison that turned out to be Doty. Many have speculated that Doty was Falcon, but Moore denies this (13).

Moore says he began providing Falcon and Doty information on the UFO community and Paul Bennewitz. During a speech at a UFO conference in 1989, Moore said, “My role in the affair was largely that of a freelancer providing information on Paul’s current thinking and activities. I had nothing whatsoever to do with the counterintelligence and the disinformation (13).” However, he later claimed he was involved with dispensing at least one hoaxed document (14).

Moore says he worked with Falcon and Doty until 1984 (13). Rumors of his involvement with government agents eventually lead him to come clean in the aforementioned speech in 1989, at which point he retired from UFO research. In 1990, along with his research partner, Jamie Shandera, he released a document called The MJ-12 Documents: An Analytical Report, which analyzed the documents related to the Bennewitz Affair.

The first hoaxed document Moore examines is not part of the Bennewitz affair, but it does have links to Doty. It is a letter, along with an Air Force Incident/Complaint Report, from Ellsworth Air Force Base, regarding a UFO encounter. The letter claimed the incident had occurred on November 16, 1977, and was subsequently classified on December 2, 1977. The author claims he wanted to get the information out before the Air Force covered it up. The letter was sent to the National Enquirer (14). According to Bob Pratt of the National Enquirer, those named in the letter were questioned, and the letter was determined to be a hoax (15).

It is included in Moore’s report because he says Doty was stationed at Ellsworth at the time (14). Military records for Doty I obtained also show Doty was at Ellsworth from 1976 to 1979 (11). When Moore asked about the document, Doty told him he was aware of the “operation,” to create the document, but did not have any direct involvement (14).

The second document is a letter sent to a UFO organization called the Aerial Phenomena Research Organization (APRO) in July of 1980 about a UFO sighting that was witnessed by Craig Weitzel near Pecos, NM. It claims Weitzel was stationed at Dobbins AFB, but was visiting Kirtland. The letter claims a man in a black suit told Weitzel he saw something he should not have and demanded photographs of the object that Weitzel had taken. The man writing the letter claims he was a friend of Weitzel’s, and was himself stationed at Kirtland. He said Weitzel had spoken to an OSI agent named “Mr. Dody (sic)” about the matter (17).

Moore worked with APRO at the time the letter was received. He says the letter was loosely based off a real sighting, but was a hoax. He also says he didn’t know it then, but he found out later that Doty had written this letter. He says Doty told him the letter was meant to draw someone out of APRO who could provide information on Bennewitz, which, as we have seen, Moore eventually did end up participating in (14).

The third document is the first piece of disinformation allegedly given to Bennewitz. Moore says the document was given to him by Falcon and Doty to give to Bennewitz (14). The document was an alleged secret AFOSI teletype dated November, 1980. It was regarding analysis of Bennewitz’s photographs and alleges that this investigation is part of a secret project called Aquarius “with restricted access to ‘MJ Twelve’.” It claims NASA is monitoring the case and that AFOSI is gathering evidence and forwarding it to NASA (18).

Moore says he was given the document in March of 1981, but because he was hesitant to give knowingly false information to Bennewitz, he did not deliver it until late that summer (14). This timing is notable, because it was late summer, specifically July 30, when Senator Domenici went to Kirtland to ask about the Bennewitz investigation (4). Although Bennewitz and Senator Schmitt had already been told there was no AFOSI investigation (3)(4), the receipt of this document could explain why Bennewitz and/or Senator Domenici believed there was an investigation in the summer of 1981.

The fourth document is a list of notes allegedly used to brief President Carter on the UFO situation with bombastic claims of Air Force cover-ups regarding crashed UFOs, alien technology, interactions with aliens, etc. The cover again mentions Project Aquarius and “MJ12″ (19). Moore says he was allowed to view and photograph this document in March of 1983 (14). In April of 1983, Linda Howe says she was invited to Kirtland Air Force Base by Doty and shown this document, or one very similar. As noted above, in the radio interview, Doty confirms this (5).

The fifth and final document is an MJ-12 Eisenhower briefing. This document was sent to Moore’s research partner, Jamie Shandera, on December 11, 1984, in a package from Albuquerque, New Mexico. The document was on 35 mm film (14). The document’s content shows similarities to the alleged Carter briefing, including the mention of MJ-12 (20)(14), first referenced in the teletype (18). It was also sent from Albuquerque, where Doty lived at the time and was still stationed at Kirtland AFB. However, Doty denies having created or sent the document (14).

Moore also denies having created the document (14). Allegedly acting on an anonymous tip, Shandera and Moore claim to have found a supporting document in the National Archives on July 18, 1985. This document is a July 14, 1954 memo from Robert Cutler, Special Assistant to the President, to General Twining regarding a “NSC/MJ-12 Special Studies Project.” It is a short memo and discusses the date and time of a meeting. It does not allude to the nature of the meeting (14). The National Archives has since released a paper outlining 10 points that “pose problems” for the authenticity of the document (22). Otherwise, there has yet to be any verifiable official reference to MJ-12.

The FBI undertook an investigation of the MJ-12 Eisenhower Briefing due to multiple requests. That investigation included a request to AFOSI headquarters inquiring about its authenticity. AFOSI claimed the document to be “bogus,” however, neither they nor the FBI have commented as to the document’s origins (9). To date, AFOSI has not commented on whether they have any involvement with the creation of the documents, as alleged by their own AFOSI agent, who, as demonstrated, was very closely related to the individuals who allegedly were anonymously given these documents, a document which also shares similarities to other documents that he asked to be given to Bennewitz, and had shown Moore and Howe.

According to Doty, “The FBI did an investigation on me because of the MJ-12 documents. It was 88 or 89… They thought I disclosed those documents (5).” If this is true, the results of their investigation have yet to be revealed.

Conclusion

Due to the extent at which the mythology created by Doty’s official or non-official disinformation campaign has worked its way into an alleged hidden history of Air Force and U.S. government secrecy, and due to the negative impact these events had on Mr. Bennewitz and his family, we deserve a response from the Air Force on their involvement, or non-involvement in this matter. Mr. Doty is now a sergeant for the New Mexico State Police, based out of Grants, and he continues to make wild accusations about the Air Force’s secret knowledge of UFOs and aliens. If he was not under orders to fabricate these documents, as he claims, then his employers and those he continues to attempt to perpetrate hoaxes upon, deserve to know this.

Ex-Air Force Law Enforcement Agent Says He Hoaxed Major UFO Mythologies

I have been researching UFOs for many years, delving deep into the underbelly of UFO lore, and one name seems to frequently pop up. His name is Richard Doty, and in the 1980s he was a special agent for the U.S. Air Force Office of Special Investigations (AFOSI) stationed at Kirtland Air Force Base in Albuquerque, New Mexico. He claims that while he was there he was tasked with hoaxing documents and feeding false information to UFO researchers. The Air Force refuses to comment on whether they knew of his activities and whether his claims of partaking in this activity at the behest of his superiors is accurate.

It wouldn't be so bad if his stories of UFO crashes and secret UFO management groups, such as the fabled MJ-12, were not the subject of a large amount of books, movies, video games, television shows, and who knows what else. He says he even acted as a consultant for The X-Files, which is one of the very few tall tales of his that might actually be true.

Doty's story has changed over the years, and some of the details of the stories are conflicting. In frustration with this whole situation, I decided to send the Air Force Freedom of information Act (FOIA) requests to find out more. I also wanted an official response regarding whether he was ordered to create these hoaxed documents.

At first the AFOSI Public Affairs Chief was very helpful. She expedited my request, and I received some very interesting documents. I was told that when my FOIA request was fulfilled, she would help me find someone I could talk to for an official statement. However, once I got the documents, she would no longer talk to me.

What was in the documents was very interesting and corroborated some of the legend around the Doty affair. The story begins with a man named Paul Bennewitz, who owned a humidity equipment company with contracts with Kirtland AFB. His house and office were near Kirtland, and he believed he was seeing UFOs over a part of the base that housed nuclear weapons. He also believed he was receiving transmissions from the aliens that flew those UFOs. Surprisingly, the Air Force humored him. They sent out Doty and an officer to investigate, but AFOSI decided that further investigation was unwarranted.

A few days later, Bennewitz was allowed to present his evidence to some of the officers and scientists at the base. He wanted a grant to conduct more research, and one of the scientists said he would help Bennewitz fill out the paperwork for the grant.

The documents also state that two U.S. senators from New Mexico had called or shown up at Kirtland to check on AFOSI's investigation of Bennewitz and his E.T. contacts. Apparently, Bennewitz had sought their help. Both times the senators were told there was no investigation.

Doty claims what the senators were told was not true. Doty says he was told to make Bennewitz believe there was an impending alien invasion because Bennewitz was actually observing secret Air Force projects. According to Doty, the Air Force wanted to discredit Bennewitz so no one would figure that out. However, Doty claims that in doing so, he created hoaxed documents that were given to Bennewitz and other UFO researchers, and that he broke into Bennewitz's house and office, some if not all of which is illegal.

I have been able to confirm that Doty did give Bennewitz documents that would make him believe he was under investigation, even though Doty told both senators that this was not the case. Bennewitz eventually checked into a mental health facility due to paranoia. Doty was successful, and Bennewtiz was convinced of the immanent alien invasion. This entire affair is incredibly unscrupulous, and Doty claims he did it all under orders. Doty is now a sergeant with the New Mexico State Police in Grants.

I think the Air Force needs to respond to Doty's claims. I have drafted a letter that I sent to the Air Force asking for a response. I have yet to receive one. I have posted this letter online along with extensive references to my sources and the FOIA documents I received. Take a look and let me know if you agree that the Air Force needs to address this situation once and for all.

Lying About Your Nuclear Age

(Before It's News)

About a week ago, the Internet was buzzing about an explosion that was detected in Iran. The various reports on the internet claimed that in their quest to destroy the United States Iran has triggered a massive explosion which appears to be nuclear in nature. The explosion went off in the city of Qazvin. It was reported that the entire city was burning and that the 1.1 million people that lived in or around the area had to have perished in the explosion.

The Los Angeles Times first suggested that the blast could have been a nuclear development accident. Israeli National News reported that: “The blast may be related to nuclear development in Iran, according to the Los Angeles Times. Iranian officials in the past have strongly denied claims by Mujahedin Khalq Organization, or MKO, a cult-like Iranian exile group, that it has a secret nuclear enrichment facility in Abyek, near the major city, according to the daily.”

Reports have surfaced however that the blast may not have been so severe.

According to Al Arabiya News, Iranian officials have since waived rumors of a nuclear explosion as, “incorrect.” Balls of flame were seen shooting into the sky however as oil storage facilities that were burning out of control and raged on through the night.

Now the question is, how is it that a nuclear explosion has happened in Iran and there seems to be not one report of it in the mainstream? Many forums where the report was filed has asked for intelligent discussion on the matter and the overall thoughts being expressed is “Who cares?” and, of course, the obligatory posts of how we should be celebrating the incident as a victory for our side and that why should we care if Iranians are blowing themselves up with nuclear weapons.

I think that what is being missed here is the important fact that there are simply no real facts coming forward about the explosion and whether or not it was a nuclear accident.

Are we that uncaring that we are willing to just ignore the environmental impact of a nuclear explosion because of our hatred for a group of people?

It wouldn’t be out of the ordinary for Iran to cover up reports of a nuclear blast, but if proven false who is responsible for the disinformation campaign. I have an idea because it has been done before.

Back in January of 2013, as AntiWar.com reported, “Israeli government officials aggressively promote an unsubstantiated story about an explosion at an Iranian nuclear facility. The Israeli government has been notorious for pushing stories such as these without any evidence. Israeli government officials willfully reported false stories about Iran in order to legitimize a war of aggression in the Middle East. Israel isn’t the only country to create a false story to legitimize war. It happens more that we care to admit because for the war hawks it is your ignorance that gives them their strength.

It is with lies and ignorance that wars are started and war chests are opened as the banks set the stage, name the enemies and finance both sides for the slaughter.

The time we wake up to this is the time we truly become free.

In the main lobby of the CIA headquarters is an old axiom taken from the bible that reads “And ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free.” The irony of the statement posted in the main lobby of the CIA is that we know that many of the alphabet organizations are fanatically devoted to deceit and lies.

We have seen time and time again the quantity of lies and deceit that have been used to make the CIA and other intelligence operations the monstrous entities that they are today.

With the wars that have been prolonged to the deaths, assassinations and executions associated with the wars we fight, we realize that truth is a casualty of war and ignorance becomes a spoil of war and as any spoils of war may come, it is the ignorant that prevail in America and the ignorance is encouraged by pundits who are paid a lot of money to keep that ignorance intact.

It is highly discouraging to see discussion on the nightly news that exemplifies the ignorance that has become a commonality in America, and what is worse is how lie upon lie can be thrown out to the American people and they swallow it up without even thinking that there is a reason why certain topics and ideas have been slated for the national dialogue and others are ignored.

I realized that there are weaponized words in America that silence any discussion. One of those weaponized words is ‘racist’. The most uncomfortable thing to realize is that if anyone shouts ‘racist’ at an opposing view we begin to see the opposing view lose its ground regardless if the opposing view even had anything to do with the race card.

We are seeing tactics being used in the media that prove that if you push a negative long and hard enough it will break through and stick and any counter argument or even a logical, well-thought out debate cannot be used against an already well thought out agenda.

Personalizing an argument –freezing it in a negative light, and then displaying it makes it “truth” in the eyes of Americans that love the drama and sick pleasure of schadenfreude.

We are losing the pleasure and freedom of the intellectual argument without jumping to unnecessary conclusions because of certain ideas that somehow exonerate the foolish because their race or religion keeps them from being questioned.

The race card is only one weapon that is used to kill an intellectual argument. We are now hearing the words “domestic terrorist” being used to malign anyone that questions the laws or even the maneuvers of a government that is there to lie and to obfuscate.

The words “conspiracy theorist” has also been used in the same breath as domestic terrorist. Even those who use “conspiracy theorist” as a pejorative are not even using it correctly because most of the time that moniker is used against anyone who questions the mainstream narrative and proposes a new narrative based on inconvenient evidence that has been presented and ignored by the mainstream press.

During the Cold War, the U.S. and the Soviet Union relied on a strategy that used to be termed, “mutual assured destruction”. It was the idea that in order to hold off a nuclear planetary holocaust there would always be threat that one would happen. It was a way to hold the entire earth hostage with their massive nuclear arsenals. We were told that each superpower had safely stashed away enough nuclear power to absorb a “first strike.”

‘Safely’ was a relative term as we all knew that tens of millions of citizens would be dead, wounded or irradiated to the point of a slow and painful death.

When the Soviet Union fell, the nuclear weapons disappeared and yet they went nowhere. It was merely a “feel good” move to realize that the godless communists had fell and that both the United States and Russia would cooperate in providing a safe world for everyone.

But with all of the lying with regard to our nuclear age, perhaps we all had to feel like we could fake it and pretend that a cold war could be warmed with understanding. However it seemed the warmth has been stifled with pure and exhausting ignorance about such matters as foreign policy with Russia.

Recently a unique poll was carried out by political scientists Kyle Dropp from Dartmouth College, Joshua D. Kertzer from Harvard University and Thomas Zeitzoff from Princeton University. The poll was taken because the political scientists wanted to know how many Americans could locate Ukraine on a map and how this related to their view of what the US reaction ought to be to the crisis in that area.

According to the Washington Post, the results weren’t all that surprising:

“We found that only one out of six Americans can find Ukraine on a map, and that this lack of knowledge is related to preferences: The farther their guesses were from Ukraine’s actual location, the more they wanted the U.S. to intervene with military force.”

This shows that for the neo-cons and war-hawks of the world our ignorance is their strength.

The question now has to be asked: Should Americans today make an effort to know anything outside of their little worlds and interests in order to make sound decisions with regard to what battles we fight?

Here we are in America determined to watch, yet again, a painful apology from Donald Sterling and the riveting attack on Jay-Z and Beyonce in an elevator and yet it slips our minds or doesn’t register that the situation in Ukraine was brought about by the US and European Union support of the coup d’état that put a radical group of Neo-Nazis in charge of the Ukrainian government.

It was not done by democratic means; the democratically-elected president of the Ukraine had to flee to save his life. For the Russian majorities in East Ukraine, that was not only “proof” of intended harm, it was a direct aggression against their freedom. But we live in a country that believes that it did all the heavy lifting in liberating the world from Hitler – and that Soviet Union only helped.

We also have a hard time grasping at the fact that Putin is the President of Russia because he was voted into that position. He was chosen by the Russian people to do a job. It should be an American position to respect that position.

However we are puzzled over a map an its complicated geography with regard to where it all fits on a map and whether or not a our foreign policy has been hijacked by the same miscreants that orchestrated the September 11th, attacks and the policies that were proposed a year before the attacks that in order to have a stronger military there needed to be an unforeseeable “new pearl harbor” that would guarantee perpetual war.

Back then I am sure many Americans did not know where Iran was on a map or even Afghanistan; however, they did know where to find them if they were looking at potential targets for aggression. That speaks volumes for America doesn’t it?

I think our biggest problem is that we see that the ignorant encourage that we remain mired in the militaristic mindset.

However, we are seeing more and more people that are learning that we are being lied to in this nuclear age and that the war hawks will lie and cover up all kinds of inconvenient history in hopes that the ignorant will continue to perpetuate the disinformation.

MILITARY JET IN PURSUIT OF HUGH TRIANGLE OVER TENNESSEE

(Before It's News)

APRIL 22, 2014      MORRISTOWN TENNESSEE

Shape: Triangle

Duration: 2-3 minutes

3 larger lights formed a  triangle, 1 smaller dim light on top, all non-flashing, fast/silent flight, military jet in pursuit.  I was outside walking when I noticed a large solid ball of yellowish- white glowing light. I thought I was seeing a planet at first but way too large.  It appeared to not be moving, so I called for my father and grandmother to look. We watched as it began moving closer until it flew over us at a much lower altitude than any commercial jet would fly, and was moving to other horizon, and by the time I got to the backyard to finish watching, it had vanished.  When I was in backyard trying to find it again, a Military Jet appeared in same flight path about 2 minutes later, and my father and I confirmed that it was a military jet from our military experience, and we knew it was a jet from the obvious sound we heard once it had moved on as well.  The UFO had a very fast smooth flight with no noise and I couldn’t make out the individual lights until it was over head. At a distance it was huge! We are in shock.  I’m a 30 years old Navy Brat, my Father is 62 and a 20 Year Navy Veteran and my grandmother age 86.  NOTE: The above image is a rendering.

Japanese Time Traveller who Vanished for 300 years – Urashima Tarō

(Before It's News)

Urashima Tarō – Time travel

In Japan, the legend of Urashima Taro describes the tale of a fisherman’s visit to the protector god of the sea- Ryūjin in an underwater palace for what seemed like only three days. When he returns to his fishing village, he finds that it’s been 300 years that he’s been gone. Everything that he knew of was long gone, his family, friends and his way of life, everything had changed in what seem to be for him only a few days.

One day a young fisherman named Urashima Tarō is fishing when he notices a group of children torturing a small turtle. Tarō saves it and lets it to go back to the sea. The next day, a huge turtle approaches him and tells him that the small turtle he had saved is the daughter of the Emperor of the Sea, Ryūjin, who wants to see him to thank him.

The turtle magically gives Tarō gills and brings him to the bottom of the sea, to the Palace of the Dragon God. There he meets the Emperor and the small turtle, who was now a lovely princess, Otohime.

Tarō stays there with her for a few days, but soon wants to go back to his village and see his aging mother, so he requests Otohime’s permission to leave. The princess says she is sorry to see him go, but wishes him well and gives him a mysterious box called tamatebako which will protect him from harm but which she tells him never to open. Tarō grabs the box, jumps on the back of the same turtle that had brought him there, and soon is at the seashore.

He asks if anybody knows a man called Urashima Tarō. They answer that they had heard someone of that name had vanished at sea long ago. He discovers that 300 years have passed since the day he left for the bottom of the sea. Struck by grief, he absent-mindedly opens the box the princess had given him, from which bursts forth a cloud of white smoke. He is suddenly aged, his beard long and white, and his back bent. From the sea comes the sad, sweet voice of the princess: “I told you not to open that box. In it was your old age …

Time travel & Ancient Stargate portals are Real and Exist on Earth Today!

(Before It's News)

On September 26, 1905 in Bern, Switzerland, Albert Einstein published his special theory of relativity. According to his astonishing scientific breakthrough, space and time are one, opening the page for many questions such as: “time travel, a possibility?”

In the old theory of Newton, space was a rigid container and time was an absolute flow while in Einstein’s theory, this was revolutionized. Space now became a flexible medium, and time could now be altered. Einstein realized that if you move faster, the ticks on your clock actually change. Prior to Einstein, no one understood that or would even have expected that, because it only happens when you get very, very close to the speed of light. There is a way within the laws of physics to travel long distances and still be alive, and that actually is related to special relativity and the idea that if you can travel very, very close to the speed of light, time will slow down for you. And in this sense, if you could travel very near the speed of light, only a day or two would pass, instead of the whole four years.

What we find interesting is that through out our history, there are said to be many more tales of time travel some of them dating hundreds or thousands of years.

In the popular TV series Ancient Aliens, Erick von Danicken states that there is evidence of time travel found in the Bible, and here is the quote: “In the Bible, the prophet Jeremiah was sitting together with a few of his friends, and there was a young boy. His name was Abimelech and Jeremiah said to Abimelech, “Go out of Jerusalem, there is a hill and collect some figs for us.” The boy went out and collected the fresh figs. All of a sudden, Abimelech hears some noise and wind in the air, and he become unconscious, he had a blackout. After a time he wakes up again, and he saw it was nearly the evening. So when he runs back to the society and the city was full of strange soldiers. And he says, “What’s going on here? Where is Jeremiah and all the others?” And an old man said, “That was 62 years ago.” It’s a time travel story written in the Bible. – von Däniken. So is this a possible  tale of time travel evidence written down in the bible?

After searching for this text in the bible we could not find any evidence of it written down, so if you check out the Holy Bible you will see that there is no such text, illustrating what von Däniken claims to be true. Although in some transcripts in Latin and Greek, a similar story can perhaps be interpreted but still not as von Däniken stated it to be. Perhaps in this occasion Erick got confused.

Time travel – India

in the ancient Indian text of the Mahabharata, written in the eighth century BC, King Raivata is described as traveling to the heavens to meet with the creator god Brahma, only to return to Earth hundreds of years in the future. Some researchers believe this Hindu tale may be one of the oldest records of successful time travel in the ancient past. So there’s in fact the story of a king called Raivata, and he is taken into space to see the gods, when he returns to the Earth he finds that many years have passed and in fact its been hundreds of years, time travel?. Some attribute that this is the  kind of thing that would happen to space travelers and in time travel.

Urashima Tarō – Time travel

In Japan, the legend of Urashima Taro describes the tale of a fisherman’s visit to the protector god of the sea- Ryūjin in an underwater palace for what seemed like only three days. When he returns to his fishing village, he finds that it’s been 300 years that he’s been gone.

Mysterious Artifacts With Spine-Chilling Nephilim Origins …

(Before It's News)

Archaeologist aren’t anything like the movies paint them out to be. Most of the time they sit around sift dirt in hopes of discovering something exciting. Given a little time archaeologist can stumble upon some rather interesting artifacts that defy the very nature of logic and convention….

1. The Giant Rock Monument Under the Sea of Galilee….

A team of Israeli archaeologist, in 2003, were performing a seabed survey on the Sea of Galilee. While digging they uncovered an artifact that shocks many of them, to this day…..

 This image may look like a smudge, but to the trained eye, its much more! Up close, this giant rock under the Sea of Galilee, is composed of thousands of meticulously arranged stones. It is cone shaped and measures 230 feet in diameter and stands 39 feet high, weighing 60,000 tons. Making this mysterious stone twice as large as Stonehenge and 6 times heavier than the Eiffel Tower.

Scientist at this time are unable to speculate just how old this object is, claiming it can be anywhere from 3,000-6,000 years old. One thing they agree on however, is that the stone was more than likely built on land and flooded later. If you are a Bible believer, such as myself, that means that this stone was built pre-flood of Noah. Meaning this was more than likely built by the giant race of Nephilim spoken of in the book of Genesis.

At this time the purpose of the stone is unknown, but some believe it was either an artificial fish nursery, a ancient European burial site, or a Reverse Atlantis.  

2. Thousands of Circular Wheel Patters

Back in 1927, RAF pilot Percy Maitland stumbled upon these unique wheel like stone patters while on a routine mail delivery flight. These patterns were up to 230 feet in diameter and there were thousands of them across the landscape.  They are easily seen on Google Maps and can be found from Syria to Jordan to Saudi Arabia and some are grouped in clusters, while others are more isolated. There is no suspected rhyme or reason to their laying.

No one, at this time, seems to know why they there or how they got there. Archaeologists have studied thousands of these images over the years and found no convincing explanation for anything. Although some man-made structures can be found near these circles, there is still no definitive answer.  Some speculate they could be associated with burial rituals or possible alien launchpads, but then again this is just speculation.  

Tribesmen, who live in the area however, claim that they are the workings of “old men” or “ancient men”. It is likely then that the creators of these mystifying circles are the Nephilim Giant race found in the Bible. They are the ‘ancient men’ of times past, and the only ones capable of creating things on such a grand scale.

3. Teotihuacan, the Real Temple of Doom

Outside of Mexico City exists a place known as Teotihuacan. It is a vast city of pyramids and palaces. It could house up to 250,000 persons and was a bustling metropolis. Teotihuacan was discovered by the Aztecs but not built by the them. They discovered it hundreds of years after its creation when the original inhabitants had abandoned it.

Susana Gonzalez/Getty Images News/Getty Images

 The question their in lies who lived there, who created it, and how on earth did they build such a gargantuan city?  

According to Aztec folklore, this amazing city was built by the ‘gods’. Teotihuacan, the name given to the city by the Aztecs literally means “place of the gods”. At this time no other theory exists, no writings, no discoveries can explain this monolithic structure whose origins seem to be shrouded in mystery. However, Biblically speaking, there is an answer. If this so called city was created by the ‘gods’ it’s also likely that such massive rocks and carvings were the workings of the Nephilim race of giants, yet again. These beings were claimed to be ‘gods’ by many of our ancient ancestors. Although, biblically speaking they are pure evil, because of their size and birth by fallen angels and humans, many hailed them as such.

One other thing that points to the Nephilim giants as one of its inhabitants, is the fact that hundreds of human skeletons were discovered sacrificed inside one of the pyramids, ringing an eerie likeness to the Book of Enoch that speaks of these Nephilim giants as cannibals.   

4. Piri Reis Map of The World Pre-Continental Split

 In the beginning God created the world as one big land mass. However today, we’ve got continents scattered all over the place because of things like Noah’s flood, earthquakes, volcanoes, and shifts in the earth’s crust.   

A map discovered in the early 1500′s displays exactly what the world looked like, pre- Noah’s flood. This map is known as the Piri Reis Map and according to it, was compiled from earlier maps dating back to the 300′s.

Charles H. Hapgood, who wrote a book about the maps mysteries titled, “Maps of the Ancient Sea Kings”, discovered a partial charting of Antarctica made during a period when the coast was free of ice. This coastal structure, now covered again by ice, was subsequently verified by satellite radar scanning.

Here is an image of Antarctica turned sideways: 

Here is the Piri Reis map showing the area that coincides geographically with Antarctica, it’s  underlined in red (look to the lower right):

 The Piri Reis map shows amazing details including accurate latitude placement of many well known islands along the southern most coastlines of Antarctica, which would be near impossible for people to create who were living in that time period. They just weren’t technologically advanced enough….or were they. 

What Hapgood actually proved was that the Piri Reis map was plotted out in plane geometry, containing latitudes and longitudes and right angles in a traditional “grid” fashion. Meaning that this so-called un-advanced generation, was advanced more than we realized or had some sort of outside help from a Nephilim race of UFO’s. There was definitely something else going on!

One shocking find on this map is the fact that it not only claimed the earth was round, but it was also able to pinpoint the circumference within 50 miles! The accuracy of it is beyond any capabilities of men living at that time unless they had some sort of aerial transportation.  It is no coincidence, however, that this map covers between Peru to Egypt:

In Egypt there are hieroglyphs of every type of aerial machine, and multiple plane designs.

 In Peru there are many plane designs and hot air balloons captured in miniature images. There is also evidence that the Peruvians used hot air balloons along with geoglyphs  and what appear to be landing strips on top of mountains.

It is possible that this ancient civilization was aided by Nephilim technology? If so the Piri Reis map would explain it.

If not how else do you explain an accurate aerial map of all of the continents, during a period when most of the scientific world believed the earth to be flat?

5. Antikythera Mechanism  

 This Mechanism is considered the world’s fist analogue computer. It was discovered when sponge divers, in Antikythera, dove in off the coast in 1900AD and found this in ocean.

This archeological find dates back to the 2nd century BC, making it well over 2,000 years old and it is a complex system of gears, dials and cogs with amazing precision. Scientist agree that it represents something that would not be seen again until the rise of clocks thousands of years later.

Many speculate that it was used as an astronomy calculator that predicted and measured the cycle of planets in relation to the Sun, Earth, and Moon.

This mechanism has been x-rayed, studies, and attempts have been made to reconstruct it, however its very existence still seems to baffle the minds of scientists today.

What is coincidental is the fact that off the coast of Crete there is a unique historical record of ancient robots of “immense size”. Furthermore there is a story in Crete of a robot named Talos, who hurled boulders at ships. If we take this into consideration it’s likely that this story represents the Nephilim Giant race and therefore likely that the Nephilim equipped the humans with the technology to create such an artifact.

African Zulu Shaman Credo Mutwa’s Reptilian Alien Experiences

(Before It's News)

For more high strange visit www.churchofmabusradio.com

Location. Inyangani, Eastern Zimbabwe (then Rhodesia)
Date: 1959 Time: daytime

Credo Mutwa (now a Zulu Shaman) had been instructed by his teacher to go into the woods and look for a certain herb in order to cure a certain initiate who was badly ill. As he looked for the herb all of the sudden the temperature around him dropped, although it was a very hot African day. He suddenly noticed that it was now cold and there was what appeared to be a bright blue mist swirling around him. Flabbergasted he just sat there wondering what was going on. Suddenly he found himself in a very strange place, a place that looked like a tunnel lined with metal. The metal was silver-grayish in color. He was lying in what appeared to be a very heavy and large working bench or a working table, but he was not tied to the table. He was just lying there and his trousers were missing and so were his heavy boots which he always wore when he was out in the bush. All of the sudden he saw what appeared to be dull, heady-looking gray, dull-like creatures which were moving toward him. There were lights in the room, but not normal lights; they resembled patches of glowing material. And there was something above the far entrance which looked like writing against the silver gray surface. The witness watch mesmerized as the creatures headed in his direction, he was frightened and could not move his arms or legs. The creatures were short, about the size of an African Pigmy, with very large heads, very thin arms and very thin legs. He realized that the creature’s limbs were too long for their bodies and their necks were very thin and their heads were almost as large as full grown watermelons. They had strange eyes, which looked like goggles of some kind. They had no noses, only small holes on either side of the raised area between their eyes. Their mouths were lipless, and resembled thin cuts as if made by a razor. And while he was looking at these creatures in amazed fascination he felt something close to his head and when he looked up, there was another creature, a slightly taller one that the others and it was standing above his head and was looking down on him. He looked into its eyes and felt totally hypnotized; he realized that the creature wanted him to keep looking into its eyes. As he looked up he could see the creature’s real eyes behind the black goggle-like covers. Its eyes were round, with straight pupils, like those of a cat. And it was not moving its head, it was breathing, he could see the nostrils moving. The creature had a strange smell like a throat-tightening, chemical smell, which smelled like rotten eggs, and also like hot copper (sulfur). The creature saw Credo looking at it and looked down at him and suddenly Credo felt a terrible, awful pain on his left thigh as if a sword had been driven into it. He screamed in pain, calling out for his mother, and then the creature placed its hand over his mouth. It had long thin long fingers which had more joints than the human fingers have. And the thumb was in the wrong place. Each one of the fingers ended in a black claw, almost like certain African birds. The creature was telling the witness to be quiet, but he kept screaming. And then all of the sudden “something” was pulled out of his flesh and he looked down and saw his thigh covered in blood and he saw that the creatures (there were four of them, other than the one standing over his head) wore tight-fitting overalls, which were silvery gray in color, and their flesh resembled the flesh of certain types of fish. And the creature standing above his head appeared to be a female. It was somehow different than the others. It was taller, bigger, although it didn’t have breasts like a woman, it appeared to be feminine and the others appeared to be afraid of it (the witness does not know how to describe this). And then while this was going on another one of the creatures came up to the witness, walking sideways, in a slightly jerking manner, as if it was drunk, it walked up along the table to his right side and it stood next to the one standing above his head. And before he knew what was happening this creature stuck something that was like a small silver ball-point pen with a cable at one end, it pushed it coldly into Credo’s right nostril. At this point Credo felt incredible pain, blood splattered all over the place. He choked and tried to scream, he pulled the cable off and attempted to struggle and sit up. The pain was horrible but the creature standing over his head placed its hand upon his forehead and kept him down with little force. He was choking and trying to spit out the blood and he then managed to turn his head to the right and spit out the blood. Soon the pain went away and strange visions flooded his head. Visions of cities, some of which he recognized, cities which were half-destroyed, the buildings having their tops blow away, with windows like empty eye sockets. He saw these visions again and again.
All the buildings were half-drowned in reddish muddy water. And then before he knew it one of the creatures, the one standing next to his feet, drove something into his penis, but there was no pain, just a violet irritation, as if he were making love to something or someone. And then when the creature withdrew the object, which was like a small black tube, the witness involuntarily and without being able to control himself urinated straight into the chest of the creature which had pulled the object from his penis. The creature jerked away and nearly fell, and then it recovered and staggered away like a drunken insect and left the room. And then after a while, the other creatures went away, leaving Credo with a dull pain in his nostril with blood on his thigh and the table wet with urine. However the creature standing over him had not moved, it just stood there with its right hand touching its left shoulder in a strangely beautiful and feminine way. It stood there looking at him. There was no expression on its face. He never saw the creatures talk or make any sound of any kind. And then out of nowhere there arrived two other creatures, one of which was made entirely out of metal, it was very tall and large and it walked with a slight stoop, moving forward and it was definitely not a living thing. It was a metal creature, a robot of some kind. It came and stood near the witness feet its whole body clumsily bent looking down at Credo. There was no mouth, there was no nose. There were just two bright eyes, which seemed to change color and seemed to move somehow like the crackling of an electrical device. And then behind this huge, bent creature, came a creature which stunned the witness. It was very swollen in appearance, it had pink skin, with blondish, very human hair, and it had very bright, blue slanting eyes. It had hair which looked like nylon fiber of some kind. It had high cheek bones and an almost human mouth with full lips and a small pointed chin. The creature was definitely a female but totally out of proportion in nature. Its breasts were thin and pointed, and set too high upon its chest, not where a normal woman’s breast would be. Its body was powerful almost fat, but its legs were too short and its arms were too short in proportion to the rest of its body. And it came towards Credo, looked down on him and before he could react, it had somehow “mated” with him. To Credo it was a horrible experience. And after that after the creatures had gone, leaving only the one standing above his head. This creature then gripped Credo by his hairs and forced him to get off the table. Once he did that he was so weak that fell onto his knees on the floor.
He noticed that the floor was strange; it had moving patterns on it, which kept on changing and shifting purple, red and greenish patterns on a metal gray background. The creature then pulled him by the hair again forcing him to stand up and pushed him roughly and made Credo follow it. The creature pushed him slowly from room to room. Amongst many things, he saw huge cylindrical-shaped objects made of what appeared to be glass of some kind. And in this objects, which reached from the roof to the floor of the room was what appeared to be sort of a grayish pink liquid. And in this liquid he saw small “editions” of the alien creatures floating around and around inside the liquid. He was then in another room where he saw people, and other strange creatures, lying on tables. He passed a white man, who smelled like a human being, who appeared terrified. This white man was lying on a table like the one Credo had been lying and he looked into his eyes and the man looked into his as he went by. And then Credo found himself in the bush. His trousers were still missing and there was a terrible pain in his left thigh. There was a pain on his penis which was starting to swell and when he tried to urinate, the pain was excruciating. He took off his shirt and used it as a loincloth to walk through the bush.

New NASA Report Confirms Billy Meier’s Warnings about Disastrous Glacial Melt

(Before It's News)

According to NASA, “Melting of the West Antarctic ice sheet is likely unstoppable, two new papers published Monday indicate.” Please read everything at, and linked from, here pertaining to the glaciers melting, the rising of the seas and the related, unavoidable effects that humanity now faces…for the foreseeable future. We also reported on related developments last year. Those who’ve followed Billy Meier’s specific, prophetically accurate scientific information already know that he had repeatedly warned about this exact kind of irreversible, unstoppable environmental damage and all of the related consequences. This damage, which has its roots in climate change and global warming – which have their roots in the very politically incorrect but unavoidably real…overpopulation – directly threatens huge numbers of people who live in coastal areas worldwide. In fact, the actual number is enormously higher, according to information posted here. And of course contributing to this increasing unfolding disaster are the still very present effects of the BP disaster. Please reread the entirety of Meier’s 1964 predictions and see if it just may make good sense now to delve deeply into the core of the Meier information, the spiritual teaching, which is rich in practical information that’s essential to human survival on many crucial levels. But of course the know-it-all skeptics and the ridicule fearing scientists, will still come up with their avoidance, song and dance dismissals, etc., etc., etc. Naturally, they forget that they live in the same world that all the “other” people do, where survival just may trump fame and funding. Oh, and did we also forget about…Fukushima?   The people were warned… And Did They Listen? Thanks to Matt Wieczkiewicz and Bob Wiegand for their research.

Cold War Spy-Satellite Images Unveil Lost Cities across the Middle East

(Before It's News)

National Geographic

Cold War reconnaissance photos triple the number of known archaeology sites across the Middle East.

A study of Cold War spy-satellite photos has tripled the number of known archaeological sites across the Middle East, revealing thousands of ancient cities, roads, canals, and other ruins.

In recent decades archaeologists have often used declassified satellite images to spot archaeological sites in Iraq, Turkey, and Syria. (Related: “‘Lost’ New England Revealed By High Tech Archaeology.”)

But the new Corona Atlas of the Middle East, unveiled Thursday at the Society for American Archaeology’s annual meeting, moves spy-satellite science to a new level. Surveying land from Egypt to Iran—and encompassing the Fertile Crescent, the renowned cradle of civilization and location of some of humanity’s earliest cities—the atlas reveals numerous sites that had been lost to history.

“Some of these sites are gigantic, and they were completely unknown,” says atlas-team archaeologist Jesse Casana of the University of Arkansas, who presented the results. “We can see all kinds of things—ancient roads and canals. The images provide a very comprehensive picture.”

The team had started with a list of roughly 4,500 known archaeological sites across the Middle East, says Casana. The spy-satellite images revealed another 10,000 that had previously been unknown.

The largest sites, in Syria and Turkey, are most likely Bronze Age cities, he says, and include ruined walls and citadels. Two of them cover more than 123 acres (50 hectares). (See also: “Drought Led to the Collapse of Civilizations.“)

Signs of ancient habitation are visible in this satellite image of Tell Hamoukar in eastern Syria.

But, says Casana, “it’s not just new places to excavate. We have a real way with all these sites to look across the whole Middle East and see how it was connected.”

The new Middle East atlas reflects both the opportunities and challenges facing archaeologists, who must handle ever larger amounts of data from excavation sites and entire regions, says information-science scholar Eric Kansa of the Alexandria Archive Institute in San Francisco, who spoke at the meeting. “This is big data,” Kansa says. “We have the opportunity to really blow up the scale of our efforts in archaeology.”

Cold Warrior

The end of the Cold War led to the public release of Corona spy-satellite images by U.S. defense officials almost two decades ago. The spy satellite made images from 1960 to 1972, and the atlas samples only some of the 188,000 images taken from 1967 to 1972 by the last generation of the satellites. The images of the Earth’s surface, intended to expose Soviet missile bases and military camps, had a resolution of two meters (6.6 feet).

A missile launch site near Chelyabinsk in the USSR is outlined in this 1969 image.

PHOTOGRAPH COURTESY NATIONAL RECONAISSANCE OFFICE

Current imaging satellites, such as the privately owned DigitalGlobebased in Longmont, Colorado, return better resolution images, but “they can’t go back in time,” says Casana.

The Corona images, he explains, were made before cities such as Mosul in Iraq and Amman in Jordan overran the many archaeological sites near them. Dams have also flooded river valleys, covering many other archaeological sites. As cities grew, the industrial farming and irrigation that supported them grew too, obscuring roads and sites clearly visible in the spy-satellite images. (Related: “The Dam That Will Flood Homes and History Across Southern Turkey.”)

“Even with much better resolution, we can’t see a site that someone has covered up with a building,” Casana says.

Information Warfare

“This project is just incredible,” says Syro-Palestinian archaeologistDavid Schloen of the University of Chicago. “It’s amazing what their atlas can do.”

The mapping team, for example, set up their site to allow you to look at the 1960s images of a given location side by side with views of it today.

The 1960s image at left captures an area of southern Iraq’s marshes, many of which have since been drained. The photo at right is of the same location in the early 2000s.

PHOTOGRAPH COURTESY INTERNET ARCHAEOLOGY/ JESSE CASANA, JACKSON COTHREN AND TUNA KALAYCI

Corona satellites photographed the Earth in swaths 120 miles (193 kilometers) long by 10 miles (16 kilometers) wide. Film strips were delivered from space inside parachute-equipped buckets, and the film’s stretched and distorted views of the Earth required special optics to sort out. The existence of the photographs was officially kept secret until 1992.

Much of the atlas team’s work has involved tying landmarks in the Corona images, purchased from the U.S. Geological Survey, to mapped landmarks in modern-day images. The landmarks also helped computers remove distortions in the original spy-satellite images.

“We don’t want to stop here,” Casana says. Many of the Corona images cover other areas of great interest to archaeologists, including Africa and China.

“Corona is amazing,” he says. “We really have coverage from almost everywhere.”

Le pape François et les Martiens, '20 Minutes', Lausanne, 13.5.2014 - MAGONIE

http://www.20min.ch/ro/


Vatican     12 mai 2014 18:20; Act: 12.05.2014 18:53

Le baptême pour tous, «même les Martiens»

Même «les hommes verts au long nez et aux grandes oreilles, les Martiens» ont le droit d'être baptisés, a affirmé lundi le pape François, invitant les prêtres à ne pas mettre d'obstacles au baptême.

Les chrétiens ne peuvent «fermer la porte» à tous ceux qui frappent et leur refuser le baptême, même s'il s'agit d'hommes «verts, au long nez et aux grandes oreilles, comme les dessinent les enfants», a-t-il dit avec humour, selon ses propos qui sont rapportés par Radio Vatican.

Evoquant les réticences initiales de l'apôtre Pierre à baptiser les non-juifs, le pape a invité à ne pas mettre «d'obstacles» à l'action de Dieu.

«Si demain, par exemple, une expédition de Martiens arrivait et certains se présentaient chez nous (...), et si l'un d'entre eux disaient: Mais moi, je veux le baptême!, que se passerait-il?», a lancé le pape argentin.

Cette image vient s'ajouter aux «chauves-souris», «piments au vinaigre», «statues de musée», «baby-sitters», «chrétiens de pâtisserie»... Au fil des jours, un véritable florilège d'expressions et de formules dessine de manière colorée la pensée du nouveau pape.

Le pape s'est souvent prononcé pour que le baptême ne soit pas refusé, notamment à des enfants dont les parents se sont pas «en règle» avec l'Eglise, par exemple quand ils vivent maritalement.

Le pape reconnaît qu'il ne se ménage pas assez

Le pape François a reconnu lundi devant des prêtres qu'il n'était pas un modèle à suivre quant à l'organisation et la charge de travail et que se «fatiguer inconsidérément» pouvait finir par «se payer cher».

Le pape argentin, âgé de 77 ans, recevait des prêtres et des séminaristes en formation dans la grande salle Paul VI au Vatican, et leur a répondu sans notes pendant une heure et demie, avec verve et humour.

A un prêtre camerounais qui lui demandait comment concilier les multiples exigences d'une vie de prêtre, Jorge Bergoglio a évoqué en ironisant sur lui-même, l'emploi du temps rigoureux qu'il se fixait entre prières, messe, travail, petite sieste, déjeuner, dîner, pour aussitôt lui expliquer qu'il n'observait guère ces règles.

«Pas de sieste»

«On ne peut pas tout faire. Je me laisse entraîner par des exigences pas très prudentes. J'ai peur que si je ne fais pas telle chose aujourd'hui, je ne la ferai pas demain! Alors pas de sieste (....) et là il faut être vigilant», a estimé François.

«Vous dans les diocèses, il vous arrivera ce qui m'arrive à moi. Le travail, la prière, un peu de temps pour se reposer, sortir de la maison, marcher un peu, tout cela est important...Et vous devez veiller à vous fixer des règles».

Il est bon, a-t-il dit, de «finir la journée fatigué, pas d'avoir besoin de prendre des médicaments. Finir avec la fatigue mais avec une bonne fatigue, et non pas avec une fatigue excessive, parce que cela nuit à la santé, et à la longue, ça coûte cher».

«C'est l'idéal, mais je ne le fais pas toujours parce que je suis un pécheur moi aussi, je ne suis pas toujours discipliné», a-t-il admis.

Le pape François ne prend jamais de vraies vacances depuis qu'il a été élu pape en mars 2013. Il reçoit et rencontre énormément de monde. Vigoureux, énergique, mais à la santé fragile notamment sur le plan pulmonaire, il se lève avant cinq heures du matin et se couche tôt. A certains observateurs, il semble un homme pressé, comme s'il savait qu'il n'avait pas beaucoup d'années devant lui pour réformer l'Eglise.

An Alien Encounter At The Age Of Seven

(Before It's News)

by Brian Vikemufon.com

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

My  cousin  and I were on the third floor of a brown, wooden apartment   tenement. The walls were rough hewn chocolate brown wood with no   sheet-rock, you could see daylight out through the cracks. Nothing   fancy, my uncle had just started working for the fire department.

  In the middle of the night, I awakened when I felt pressure on my   cot. I looked down at the foot of my cot and one of them was sitting on   it. The other two were standing at the foot of the cot looking at me.   There was a faint light emanating from them somehow so I could barely   discern them. The light eventually brightened. Later, much later, even   now, I can still recall the beautiful, vivid electric blue light.

  They were tiny, thin, gray; no more than three feet tall. They looked   very fragile. However, I didn’t have any fear of them. They   communicated to me through telepathy. They didn’t say much. All I can   remember them “saying” to me was do not be frightened and I wasn’t.

   As I watched, a circle of beautiful, brilliant, and indescribable   blue light appeared behind them. I remember one of them going into the   light and I knew this was where I was going too. This entire episode   lasted about three minutes. I remember falling asleep before they were   gone. My cousin  never woke up throughout this entire ordeal.

  How can I describe them? Well, you’ve seen them in stickers,   pictures, you know, the typical alien, large heads, black oval eyes too   large in proportion to their heads, a slit for a mouth and two small   holes for a nose. Their long spindly limbs seemed to be too frail, yet   there they were.

   When I woke up the next morning, my left pinky finger was aching. I   felt it and in the middle segment of the digit I felt what seemed to be a   BB of some sort. I knew it wasn’t there before. I told my mother about   the entire incident, and she beat me severely and would not even   consider feeling the ‘BB’ in my finger. So I suffered in silence for   many years.

  Since  then I have asked my doctor if he’d x-ray my finger and he said  not  unless there was a reason to. I didn’t tell him why, or he’d  probably  think I was nuts. I’ve been x-rayed for chest pains repeatedly,  and I  have always semi-jokingly asked the x-ray tech if they’ve ever  done  alien implant x-rays or has anyone ever requested one. They’d  always  laugh and tell me no, but “We have found a lot of interesting  things in  rectums!”

  My  doctor says the ‘BB’ in my finger is a fatty deposit, but I  disagree  because I knew it wasn’t there the night before I saw them. No  one  believed me. You are only the third person on this planet that I  have  related this story to.

  I think it is like a tag. I haven’t seen them since. And no, this was   not a dream. It was the real McCoy. It really, actually happened. How   could I have known what they looked like at that age? According to my   parents and my uncle, I described them perfectly. They were exactly like   the ones you see described by thousands of people worldwide.

  This might sound strange, but I have a feeling, just a feeling, mind   you, that they have protected me throughout my life. They have caused me   to have success. Strange isn’t it? I have never been hurt, or in a car   wreck, or received a speeding ticket, or been arrested for DUI,  nothing.  It is very odd.

  I think it is very possible that they are monitoring and especially   influencing thoughts. When I was a child, after the incident with the   aliens, my mother was amazed at the things I would come up with. I would   make innocent predictions (remember I was a kid) and they would come   true. She was dumbfounded. She said I could predict the future. I think   she was afraid of me and that’s why she beat me so much and made me   sleep at other relative’s houses.

   Or how about this story?

  I had a good friend in Mt. Home Air Force Base in Idaho; his name was   (name removed). He decided he wanted to work at the top secret site   called ‘Area 51′ or the Tonopah test site as we knew it. They worked on   top secret aircraft. He worked on the F-1117A. To work there however  you  needed a top secret clearance. They asked me to work there, but I   turned it down as I was getting out. We had a TDY to Nellis Air Force   Base, and I was selected to go so I immediately called (name removed)   and told him when I’d be there. He told me that would be great and to   give him a call when I was at the dorm, and he would pick me up and we’d   fly his radio controlled planes. So he did and before we went to the   R/C airfield he wanted to stop at the hobby shop for some parts. Well,   he bought what he needed and we were off to the field. We came to a red   light, we were in the right lane, and I decided to ask him about  aliens.  The second I uttered aliens he turned pale, ran the red light,  did a  u-turn in all that traffic with horns blaring and drove me back  to base.  On the way I kept asking, “(name removed), what’s the matter?”  “What  did I say?” But, he would not answer any of my questions, he  stayed pale  and angry and dropped me off at the dorm and I never saw or  heard from  him since.

  I am not insane and I know what I saw. I am 48 now and can remember it like it was yesterday. I know they exist.

   Thank you to the person for the interesting report.

MEN IN BLACK, REALITY?

(Before It's News)

Publisher's Note: Art Champoux has been an UFO investigator since 1964.He have worked with Ray Fowler, Walter Webb, John Keel, a lady that he can not name, and several different UFO groups. In the 1960s he was with APRO, CAPER, NIACP, then when APRO went out he was with NICAP and then APRO. Now he is with MUFON. The world of the paranormal has always fascinated him as even as a small boy he had some eerie happenings. His Great grandmother was a spirit medium so maybe he has inherited something. He is a hypnotist and has written for several publications and his leanings are much like John Keels. He believes there is an ultra force, not from outer space, but much like John's and even Jacques Vallees' contention…we are but one dimension out of many that reign on this planet. You can email Art at artchampoux@gmail.com.

Well, in the mid 60s I was with Caper, Committee Aerial phenomena evaluation and research. It was out of the Arizona area. I was the northeastern area investigator. I was working with Raymond Fowler and going out with him and some times with David Webb.  There were UFO sightings all over the area, so many that I could not keep up with them.

In Ray Fowler's books there is a few that involved sightings of entities.

Black cars would park in front of my house. The ones that stuck in my mind the most are the ones that would turn any investigator into a nervous break down. If we went out, my wife and I, we would come home to a mess of UFO books, files and my sighting maps all over the floors.

Ramona Clark who was the director would get calls from me about every other day. If you were in my shoes you would not wear them long. One day there was three investigators who sat in my living room. I gave each one a 25-cent piece and told them to close their hand. I counted to 3. Then I told them to open their hand. All three ran out of the house.

John keel (the Mothman Prophecies) and l were great friends. We would snail mail a lot, an awful lot!   In johns book, strange creatures from out of space, he speaks of my case. 

I would follow their car and block the car and the car would disappear! John sent up Dr. Berthold Swartz.  In one of John's books, Bert said I had a gun by the door, but that was not true. I did have a gun, but the gun was unloaded with no rounds in the chamber. 

One of my fellow investigators was shot and killed while I was talking to him on a pay phone! I phoned Ramona Clark and told her about the shooting. She recommended I drop the whole thing, I Did! But I continued to still do UFO investigations to this day. 

The entity sighting I found I called Ray Fowler and we went up to the place and got the gentleman who watched the craft and the 3 entities that stared at him. David Webb also participated in this sighting report. You can read the case in Rays book, UFO Testament.   I have all Ray's books, all autographed.   Raymond Fowler was and is in the top 3 of all UFO Investigators in the history of UFOs and there enigma!

The following books were written by Raymond Fowler

Watchers, The

UFO Testament: Anatomy of an Abductee

The Allagash Abductions: Undeniable Evidence of Alien Intervention

The Andreasson Affair: The Documented Investigation of a Woman's Abduction Aboard a UFO

NASA “Point of no return, Global Alert Irreversible Decline of Antarctic Glaciers World Wide Alert”

(Before It's News)

A massive glacier system has started collapsing in West Antarctica due to global warming, and studies by two different teams of scientists claim the collapse will result in a significant rise in sea levels worldwide.
A slow-motion disaster may be unfolding according to two different teams of scientists. The scientists reported earlier this week that the Thwaites Glacier, which acts as a keystone holding back the massive West Antarctic Ice Sheet is starting to collapse. According to the reports, the entire ice sheet is doomed to collapse, raising sea levels worldwide by as much as four feet or more.
In an article published online today in Science, one team combined recent data on the receding 182,000-square-kilometer Thwaites Glacier with computer modeling of the glacier’s dynamics to forecast future movement.

The rapidly melting West Antarctic Ice Sheet is in an irreversible state of decline according to the latest NASA study. As a result, the ‘ice-dam’ preventing glaciers in the area melting into the sea will ultimately disappear.

West Antarctic glaciers already contribute significantly to sea level rise. They release as much ice into the ocean annually as the entire Greenland Ice Sheet and contain enough ice to increase global sea levels by 4 feet (1.2 meters). The West Antarctic Ice Sheet is melting faster than most scientists had expected, meaning that current predictions of sea level rise will need to be revised upward.
Researchers from NASA and the University of California, Irvine used 40 years of observations in their study published Monday. Lead author Eric Rignot, of UC Irvine and NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena said the multiple lines of evidence considered by the researchers lead them to conclude that glaciers in the Amundsen Sea sector of West Antarctica “have passed the point of no return.”

UFO mania: THE ANCIENT GIANTS WHO RULED THE EARTH

Giant skeletons of an unidentified human race have been excavated around the world, lending credence to the strange stories of Nephilim in ancient texts. 

According to the book of Genesis, Nephilim were beings present on the earth during the time when the “sons of God” mingled with the “daughters of men.” It says they were “the heroes of old, men of renown.”

‘Alien’ Artist H.R. Giger Dead At 74

(Before It's News)

Swiss surrealist rewrote the rulebook on how to design a movie monster

By Sam Byford

H.R. Giger, the Swiss surrealist artist best known for designing the iconic “xenomorph” creature in the Alien movie franchise, has died. Swiss newspaper Tages Anzeiger reports that the news comes from public broadcaster SRF, which said Giger died after sustaining injuries in a fall. He was 74.

Giger was born in Chur, Switzerland in 1940, later studying architecture and industrial design at Zurich’s School of Applied Arts. He developed a freehand airbrush painting style that he used to great effect in his “biomechanical” landscape artworks, and was tapped to work on Alejandro Jodorowsky’s ambitious, doomed remake of Dune in 1975, but Giger gained a new level of recognition following the publication of his book Necronomicon in 1977. It was that book that inspired Ridley Scott in the pre-production phases of Alien, and Scott hired Giger to produce concept art for the film.

The Alien creature was based on a Giger print named Necronom IV, and marked a major departure from the cliched green men often seen in movies until then. Giger’s alien was androgynous, eyeless, and insectoid, playing off the artist’s prior exploration of what he called biomechanical themes. Its design also had a clear sexual subtext, with its phallic head and disturbing reproductive system; the crab-like “facehugger” juvenile form wraps itself around a victim’s head, impregnating it so the infant alien can burst out of the chest.

Giger continued to work on the Alien franchise, but his art found its way into corners of pop culture as diverse as the video game Dark Seed, the cover of Debbie Harry’s solo album Koo Koo, and Korn singer Jonathan Davis’ microphone stand.

“The Raccoon Spoke. ‘Good Evening, Doctor,’ It Said.

“Green Space Penguins”

SPACE PENGUINS OF TUSCUMBIA: (MISSOURI, USA)

In the winter of 1967, a no-nonsense Missouri farmer had a run-in with a horde or strange, scurrying, entities from outer space that one could only describe as resembling “green space penguins.

On the bone chilling morning of February 14, 1967, a 64-year old farmer by the name of Claude Edwards woke up to attend to his duties on a remote parcel of land near Tuscumbia, Missouri. As the sun rose low on the horizon, Edwards bundled up to face the bitter day, never imagining that he was about to have a face to face encounter with the unknown.

Edwards was a simple, hardworking, salt of the Earth Midwesterner who had no time for any kind of foolishness regarding aliens, flying saucers or the like; so as his worn boots tramped across the icy, rock strewn slope that took him from his home to his barn, nothing could have shocked him more than to see what appeared to be a UFO sitting in one of his nearby fields.

Edwards stated that before he saw this unusual object, the first thing that he noticed was that all of the cattle in his east field were gazing in the same direction.

Intrigued, Edward’s followed their stares through a grove of trees and was astounded to see what he described as a massive, grayish-green, mushroom-like object — which was perched atop a circular tube — in the meadow adjacent to his barn.

Almost as if on autopilot, the farmer continued to the barn; his eyes never leaving the UFO. He set down the feed bucket he’d been hefting and latched the door shut. With his barn secured, Edwards then turned back toward the peculiar object occupying his field and that’s when he saw something he would never forget… a group of tiny, strange creatures hastily swarming beneath the object. [The "X" in the above photo indicates approximately where the UFO was when Edwards -- also depicted above -- first spied it.]

Edwards estimated that he was separated from the odd entities by about 70-feet of land, two wire fences, and a smattering of cows. The gutsy farmer was not pleased by the fact that his cows were being spooked or that his property was being trespassed on, even if said trespassers happened to hail from OUT OF THIS WORLD. The farmer — no doubt fueled by a combination of curiosity and adrenaline — climbed the first gate and started walking directly toward the ostensibly alien interlopers.

As Edwards reached the second gate, the diminutive creatures began moving in an even more agitated fashion. Edwards would later describe these miniature monsters as being approximately 3-feet in height and having a grayish-green complexion much like their “ship,” although (based on his own drawing) it would seem that these beings erred on the greenish side a bit.

Also (based again on Edwards’ sketch) it would seem that either these beings had no hands or that their arms were moving too swiftly for Edwards to discern the shape of the appendages. Edward’s also claimed that these aliens were either wearing goggles or had large, wide-set, black eyes.

They also had dark protuberances where their noses and mouths ought to have been. Whether or not he believed the protrusion to be a natural part of their physical features or some sort of protective (or possibly breathing) apparatus is not clear.

Although the connection may be tentative at best, when hearing a description of the Tuscumbia aliens it is difficult not to have it invoke memories of an encounter reported by a pair if Finnish lumberjacks in 1971.

The allegedly alien life form that they ran into on that wintery day near Kangaskyla, was a small, almost lighter than air creature, which would come to be known as the KINNULA HUMANOID. This being was said to be clad in a green colored protective suit similar to the creatures that Edwards bore witness to. That is assuming, of course, that the things that Edwards saw were wearing anything at all!

Edwards watched in wonder as these bizarre creatures buzzed back and forth directly beneath the odd device, arms swinging frantically at their sides. He would later claim that these “invaders” resembled little, green penguins, with no visible neck. Edwards also stated that he could not clearly discern what manner of locomotion they were employing with their lower extremities.

At this point Edwards — like any primal man defending his property minus weapons — picked up a pair of bulky rocks and approached what, at this point, he was convinced was a UFO. In fact, Edwards would later state that his intention was to use the rocks to throw at the device and puncture holes in its side in order to prevent it from taking off.

As the farmer got within 15-feet of the “mushroom” and the energetic entities, he was abruptly stopped by some sort of “force field.” Edwards claimed that he could neither see nor tangibly feel it, but that the pressure the invisible barrier emitted was unmistakable. According to Edwards:

“I thought I was going right up to it. I got up there and there it was. I just walked up against a wall.”

It was then that Edwards (who would eventually sketch the domed vehicle)  got his first good look at the soundless, glinting vessel.
He would later describe the metallic surface of the vehicle as being smooth and seamless, even going so far as to compare it to “shiny silk.” He estimated that the curved top of the craft was about 18-feet in diameter and nearly 8-feet at its apex. The stem-like tube that was supporting the object was evidently made of the same material as the domed top and stood not much higher that the beings beneath it.

At this point the perplexed farmer could also discern evenly spaced oval portals — about 12-inches long and 12-inches apart — situated around the lower rim of the “saucer.” Edwards would insist that these portals did not seem to function as windows as he could see a dazzling array of colors radiating from each of the ovals. The colored lights oscillated as if they were spinning behind the portals. Edwards described the craft:

“The object it just looked like a big shell, grayish-green looking outfit. And underneath there were oblong holes where the lights were coming out. They were so bright you couldn’t see when you got up there… as if a color wheel was turning inside the thing.”

Anxiously, this rugged man of the land backed off about 10-feet, then hurled one of the rocks he had gathered at this immobile object.
The rock bounced of the imperceptible barricade noiselessly and landed on the ground. Edwards then threw his second rock with even more force, but this one just skipped over the object like a stone over water, before landing in the field behind the UFO.-

As soon as he lobbed the second stone, the scuttling, green critters swiftly disappeared behind the shaft supporting the craft, presumably into an access portal that was concealed from the farmer. It was then that the strange UFO tilted toward him not once, but twice. On the third lurch the UFO actually began silently ascending off the frozen Earth.

According to Edwards, the flying mushroom soared skyward at tremendous speed before it leveled off and began heading toward St. Elizabeth, which is located northeast of Tuscumbia. The vehicle vanished within moments leaving behind a puzzled Edwards and a pasture full of befuddled bovines. Edwards later encapsulated his fantastic encounter for UFO investigator Ted Phillips:

“The whole thing took over five minutes, maybe ten. I have never seen anything like it. It looked like shiny silk or something.
I couldn’t tell. I was going to tell though if I could have hit it with that rock.”

One detail that would seem to add a stroke of veracity to this admittedly bizarre account is the fact that Claude Edwards was a seasoned man of the  land who stood gain very little — except for the ridicule of this peers — by admitting to this potentially harrowing event. In fact, when Phillips was introduced to Edwards through his brother, the farmer refused to utter a word about the incident until the young researcher pledged to protect the farmer’s anonymity, which he did until Edwards’ death. Phillips described his first encounter with Edwards:

“When I arrived at the farm we visited for several minutes gaining his confidence that I wouldn’t reveal his name or location until his death. He didn’t like talking about the sighting at first, but became more comfortable as we discussed the weather and farming. I asked him to relive the event in real time and we began on his front porch which faces the large barn near the landing area.”

The fact that this farmer never tried to squeeze and ounce of publicity (or make a penny in profit) from his strange Valentines’ Day experience has lead many investigators to conclude that there would be no motivation for a prank on the part of Edwards. In further support of Edward’s claims is the uncanny trace evidence left behind in the field where the UFO had landed.

Phillips, who arrived to interview Edwards not long after the events in question, was able to photograph the effects this UFO had on the field, including the spot where the support tube had met the soil. Phillips explained:

“When I arrived at the site the traces were still quite visible. It was one meter in diameter in a slightly irregular circle where the shaft had rested. The soil was extremely dehydrated in contrast with the surrounding soil.”

This would be the last encounter that Edwards ever reported with these peculiar, space penguins and their mushroom shaped UFO, but I’d say it’s a safe bet that as stepped out of his modest home at the crack of dawn to begin his work every morning, that he never did so without looking out at that field with some apprehension… and perhaps just a bit of anticipation.

Riveting Sasquatch Witness Report

(Before It's News)

Sasquatch Sighting (Daytime) #6 
Mogollon Rim, Arizona
2014-05-07 3:30pm 

Karl Sup

Some days things don't work out as you expected, but timing sometimes is everything. I had planned to squeeze in a daytrip to my favorite research area on the Mogollon Rim then head to Flagstaff to help pack up my daughter's dorm room. After several delays in departure, I almost abandoned hope of making it into the woods. The roads in this area are closed off to vehicles during the winter. They had just opened the roads 10 days earlier. There have been multiple sightings in this remote area, including two of my own (#1 and #2), and countless experiences. With limited time available, I decided to hike into the portion of the canyon where I had my daytime sighting back in 2010 right after the roads had opened. Driving into this area, I could only see one other set of tire tracks on the road that appeared to be a week old, probably from forest personnel checking on road conditions. 

 The quick glimpse of the face showed sparse to no hair on the face, compared to the rest of the body. The hair was not matted and flowed as he ran. The hair coloration was a brownish-orange hue (see reference photo above for color). The two steps taken were smooth and in a straight line, massive shoulders turned into the direction of travel. 

Being alone, I decided to allow them some time to acclimate to me being in the area. I hiked a half mile down the canyon to an area where, in 2010, prints of a Sasquatch infant were found in the mud at the bottom of a creek bed. Timing for this Arizona environment was imperative then, as it was now, to observe the banks of mud due to snowmelt runoff.  I do not own these 7” long baby print casts, as ownership remains with two members of the Arizona BFRO (pictures below). 

I hiked down into the creek bed and began a scanning the mud banks for prints or partial prints. There were numerous elk, deer, coyote and a few bear prints that were noted. One older 13x4” print did stand out though. The ball of the foot had compressed (formerly) muddy soil but the toes still rode on top of the harder packed soil. I estimate that this print was 10-14 days old due to grass rebound and slight erosion from a storm that passed through this area about a week prior. 

Toe impressions were one inch wide. The toes extended upward and wrapped over the top surface. Upon returning to the location of the sighting I began investigation. This is a photograph taken from my viewpoint of the sighting. The Sasquatch was near the tree base, squatting and intent with an activity on the ground in front of him. The line represents his path of regress, and the taller circle represents the mass, at an estimated ¾ bent hunch/run position. That was the position of the first step taken, and the second step was six feet away at the edge of the vegetation.

Based on the estimated bend to the subject’s body and the estimated height based on surrounding landmarks, the subject was approximately 8’ tall. Below is the base of the tree fall where he was crouched. You can see impressions of the 16x5” prints that are 22” apart (circled). 

Here is a view from the Sasquatch’s perspective of where I was standing when I stepped out. The other (assumed) Sasquatch was across the meadow to the right in the photo below. 

I am not certain what the attraction at this tree fall location was. There were several fern sprouts breaking through the forest litter in that location. Other trees in the area were noted with odd disruption at or around the base. 

Here is the path of regress. 

Impression of the first step (above) second step (above).There was a deer skull in the meadow. In previous investigations to this area, numerous deer and elk bones were found snapped in half in ‘feast’ piles in multiple locations. Photo on the right is a view from the game trail I entered the canyon on, looking down toward the meadow. On the road out of the forest, there were numerous elk to be seen. Finally, I made it to Flagstaff just before sunset but not before driving through a rare May snow! 

I would call this two hours well spent in the woods!

Is Bigfoot a Kaiju of Sorts?

(Before It's News)

Is Bigfoot a Kaiju of Sorts?

By Kirk Sigurdson

 

With the new release of the film, Godzilla, coming out this week, I thought I would entertain the question of whether or not bigfoot is a type of “kaiju.”

Most people think kaiju must of necessity be huge in size. Not so. Daikaiju fit into this category, but the word kaiju simply means “strange creature” in Japanese. The more popular translation of kaiju in the English language is “monster.”

Of course, this opens up the whole aper/paranormalist debate in bigfooter circles. I happen to be of the belief that sasquatches are most likely capable of paranormal capabilities that exceed those of mere “apes,” including humans.

Yes, I’m talking about intra and inter-dimensional travel, invisibility, feats of incredible strength (that exceed even that of a huge primate), telepathy, and remote viewing. In fact, some reports of sasquatches over the past century detail a creature well over twelve feet tall!

Based upon my person experiences sasquatching over the course of 25 years (about 50% of the time with other witnesses), I can say with some measure of confidence that invisibility is certainly likely when it comes to the special “kaiju-like” powers of sasquatches. Telepathy is also high on the list of possibilities.
 

Not only was the famous Six Million Dollar man “Bigfoot” huge and immensely powerful, he was also an android. Take that, Mechagodzilla!  

 

 

Due to the appearance, behavior, and possibly supernatural capabilities of sasquatches, I’m going to cast my vote for sasquatches belonging to the illustrious category of kaiju. Most kaiju fans agree that zombies, werewolves, vampires, mummies, men in black, faeries, ghosts, and djinn also might properly fit under this heading.

And thus we come to a final philosophical crux that is worth pondering: “Must kaiju, of necessity, be fictional, or can they actually be real life creatures?”

Very few websites dare to broach this possibility. As usual, Kultusbook.com has dared to “go there.” In the above list, I think it’s possible that real-life forms of werewolves, zombies, vampires, faeries, ghosts, and djinn could be real, although not in the clichéd way that these monsters are portrayed in most films and fictional literature. There are also some possible cross-overs between a few of these categories, such as between reports of vampires, men in black (MIB), ghosts, and djinn.

Thom Powell’s book, The Locals, narrates a few sasquatch encounters that include werewolf characteristics. I’ve always been fascinated by the infamous Gable Film, which allegedly depicts a “dog man” or werewolf.

For those of you interested in all sorts of fun facts and details about kaiju, I recommend a tour of Guy Edward’s website, Everything Kaiju.  Ro Sahebi’s Mulder’s World also covers quite fascinating reports of monster encounters from around the world. The Florida Paranormal Examiner is also worth checking out. This fantastical website is the brainchild of the infamous Jeffery Pritchett, Esq. I was interviewed on his radio show called The Church of Mabus recently.
 

Succubi and incubi: yet another type of kaiju

Japanese culture and history is no stranger to possibility of “real life” monsters. A friend of mine lived in a small village for a time. He returned home to Portland with tales of kanashibari that infected the entire village like a kind of plague. For those of you unfamiliar with this supernatural term, it describes a similar phenomenon to that of succubi, incubi, and other “sleep demons” that can bring on paralysis, or even death.

Check out this Kultusbook.com entry for details on my take on yet another otherworldly subject of contention. Unfortunately, I had a personal run-in with “night smothering” over a decade ago while living in a rather famous Portland haunted house for a year. In a house with four roommates, three were affected adversely and two moved out, post haste. Not fun! And yet, to the uninitiated, fascinating. . . .
